Wealth, Adventure, and the Open Sea: A One Piece RP.(Arc 4: Porte Carlo.)

[Scarim Coral]

Jacque is somewhat glad to see the captain again as it seen Yoje was right about him being in the mansion.

He said "It's about bloody time to set sail t'woo!"

He helps out his captain by swoop in front of a several marines. He swung his rapier making one long slash across their chests. The force of slash had completely pushing them back and falling onto the ground. He had essentially had made a small opening although the marines will soon fill in the opening very soon.

 

[Mr. Omega]

Peter sighed. "Some nut tried to attack me right as I was about to get away. Had a bit of a fight, and he decided to get away. Bit of an unpleasant getaway, at that..." he mumbled the last part.

"Come on! I've got a ship not that far from here! We're meeting up with someone pretty soon!" He ran towards the docks, pointing his gun at the incoming wave of Marines, shooting a small fireball at them to hold them off for a second as he took off.

"Nice to meet ya, Yoje. So there's us four here. There are four at the harbor, Sylvester, Grana, the big hairy guy and Sammi. We should be able to catch up with them just a little bit after they leave the harbor, or at least catch up with them before they break through the blockade if we're delayed. Sorry I can't tell you all the details of the plan, but just trust me!"

Hippocrates waited for a second before Ezekiel rushed at him, kinves drawn, attempting to stab him in the chest. He reached his hand up and intercepted the knife, the blade piercing deep into his hand. "Your kind never do go easily..." the blood around his hand poured out surprisingly quick, not dripping to the floor but instead swirling around his hand as he moved it back, grabbing Ezekiel's wrist with his other hand, the wound still gaping.

"Allow me to explain my talents... Any blood I touch or taste, I can find more of it, much like a dog who has found a scent. I can also manipulate it, so long as there is contact. I can control my own as well. If you haven't guessed, I ate the Blood-Blood Fruit." the blood around his hand began to gather together, forming into a sharp-looking blade, his fingers curving along with it. "Crimson Scythe!" he slashed Ezekiel with the blade, and a second later he fell to the floor. Afterwards, the blood seemed to retreat back into the wound, dripping onto the floor. He yelled to everyone there. "Men! Get back to your ships! We may have caught the one who started this, but we still have another thing to settle!"

 

[GoWithDAFro]

Yoje reverted to his human form and ran after Peter. "I didn't expect Sparkles and Sylvester to join your crew, especially after so little time." I was going to learn how to use the Paper Art from Sparkles. I may need to be recruited myself for that to happen now.
He used a Tempest Kick roundhouse to keep his path open as he followed Peter. "The captain of the Marines here might be at the manor right now. Have you seen him?"

 

[Mr. Omega]

"I got no idea. If he is there, he went in the front door. And I sure as hell ain't going back to check." They had now gotten to the docks. "Ok, just a little further!" I just hope nobody tried to take my boat while we were gone. Or take any of my stuff.

 

[GoWithDAFro]

Yoje was running right behind Peter. He looked back, and could still see marines in the distance. "I hope your ship can outrun a marine boat Peter."

 

[Xero Scythe]

Grana grabbed a free-hanging rope swinging from the mizzenmast, stepping onto the main deck, pushing off with all his force. The rope swang up, bringing Grana with it in its circular arc, depositing him on one of the smaller masts. "Motherfuckers... you think they had never even sailed this overgrown sailboat before!" Grana retied the sails, managing to grab a ride on one of Sammi's ropes to the crow's nest. There, he checked the knots before leaping to the netting on the side of the ship, climbing down the netting like a monkey. "Finally, a seaworthy vessel! Au Revoir, coracle!" One last leap brought Grana to the boat's steering wheel. He dipped into his hat and pulled out a compass and his map. He checked their bearing against his map, impatiently tapping his foot as he waited for the captain. "C'mon, c'mon..." Grana said worriedly. "Sammi!" He yelled. "Be ready to drop the sails the moment you see the captain! A boat this big needs some momentum!"

 

[My name is Fiction]

Sparkles heard a call to prep the sail, he would rather get it done himself then wait any longer.
"Say the word and I'll sever the ropes in an instant."
"Don't think we could get past a mobilized blockade."
"Whats holding up your captain?"

 

[Mr. Omega]

Peter saw his ship ahead. "Yeah, it can outrun just about anything. But it's gonna be a little cramped. Wasn't meant for this many people and all the crap I've got stored in it." He jumped in. "Come on! Get in! Get in!"

 

[GoWithDAFro]

Yoje jumped into the boat. He had to squirm around a bit before he was in a comfortable position. "Ready to go, Peter." He looked back again, and saw that the Marines were minutes away from reaching their own ships. "They won't let us get away easily. As much as I enjoy beating up Marines, why did your crew have to kidnap the governor of the island?"

 

[Mr. Omega]

"The plan was to try and get him to call this off. Once that didn't work, we were surrounded by Marines. One thing lead to another, and here we are. We were going to leave him alone, but we need a backup plan in ase we don't make it through the blockade. Having a hostage would be a good bargaining chip. We'll let him go once we're out of here."

Once everyone had gotten on board, he rushed to the back. There were two large shells attached to the boat. He stomped down on a pedal and the boat was thrust forward. He tried to steer it, but with all the added weight, it was a little difficult. After a minute, they were rushing towards the other harbor, right towards where the other half of the crew was. "Let's just hopw they see us..."

 

[My name is Fiction]

Now on the beach with the sand under their feet he had to hope they were coming.
In the open even a rookie marine could find them out here, he hadn't expended much of his energy but with sheer numbers they could over whelm them.
Off in the distance he could see a ship, he wasn't sure it was the one but he waved his arms to get its attention.
He used his hairs as polls and some fancy table cloth from the mansion to make an improvised flag.
got to be blind to not see this

 

[GoWithDAFro]

The flag being waved on the boat was impossible to miss. "Looks like they see us, Peter. The guy waving the flag has so much hair, it must be Sparkles. I'll board once we get closer"
Yoje squirmed onto his feet, and once Peter's boat was within 10 yards of the ship, he jumped and Moon Stepped onto the main deck

 

[Tim_Buoy]

?Well looksssss like I have to cut the concert ssssshort here they come? Sylvester hissed as he put the violin back in its case. Sylvester looked up and saw the marine ships about to sail. ?we better hurry up they almost after ussss.?

 

[Scarim Coral]

Jacque gasps for breath from his ordeal from running from the mansion to all the way on Peter boat. While he could of morph into his owl form and fly to the main deck as Yoje proceed to moon jumped there he thought he should stay close to the Captain.
Upon seeing his ship up close, in his eyes the ship look very worn down compare to any other ship.

He said "That you ship? It looks so run down twoo."

 

[Mr. Omega]

Peter turned to Jacque, "Yeah, it's a little worn out..." the ship raced off, now able to see the ship Sammi, Grana, Sylvester and Sparkles were on in the distance. "But we're about to make a serious upgrade... that's our way out of here, gentlemen! And my new ship! Ooooh, I'm looking forward to working on it... giving it a new coat of paint, giving it a proper figurehead, re-naming it, setting up a proper lab, not some little table in the back of a tiny cabin..."

The smaller boat rushed towards the other group. "GET US UP THERE! SET SAIL! GO GO GO GO GO!" He threw a couple hooks up to the people on the larger ship. "Pull us up! We'll need this spare ship! And it's faster than bringing up everything inside!" He looked over, seeing there was still a sizable gap between the nearest two Marine ships for them to sail through.

 

[NeoAC]

Sammi looked over at Grana, who had seemingly appeared out of nowhere from the top of the ship. "What the-"

But there was no time for wondering about how the hell he managed to do stuff that seemed damned near impossible, and on her ropes to boot, now. She could see the old ship of Peter's coming into view. It was moving quickly, quicker than she remembered.

Peter tossed the hooks aboard. "Pull us up! We'll need this spare ship! And it's faster than bringing up everything inside!"

"Pull?" Sammi asked. "You forget who you're talking to for a second there, Captain?" She reached down towards the ship and ropes came flying out of every one of her fingers. She was putting all her energy into this effort, the ropes wrapped around the small boat and came back up to the railing before slowly constricting, lifting the boat out of the water and more in line with the ship's deck. It was a strain, but once the ropes were of suitable length and firmly wrapped around the railing, Sammi disconnected from them and was able to breathe a bit easier. She wiped the sweat off of her brow as the ropes finished securing the two vessels together.

"Hey!" she shouted. "Grana! You want to get this thing going now that I've done the heavy stuff?"

 

[Xero Scythe]

Grana grinned as a gyroscope was pulled out of his hat as well, somehow spinning without outside help. He placed the compass on top to make sure there was no interference from any magnetic stones or from the ship rocking, nodding as the gyroscope did its job and disappeared once more into the bottomless white hat. "All hands! Drop the sails, we're breaking through!" Grana pulled the cord next to him that ran up to the mizzenmast, undoing the knot and dropping the main sail. The secondary and tertiary sails dropped as well, due to the chain-reaction riggings in between them. The ship lurched forward as the wind-filled sails strained against the thick oak masts.

Grana laughed as he saw a few people stumble with the sudden movement. He also saw that the Governor had hit his head, bringing him back to reality. "G'evening, governor! And how are we enjoying our leisurely oceanic cruise today?" Grana laughed as he saw the governor's face. The man must have thought Grana was crazy. "The forcast for today is sunny, with a slight chance of cannonballs. So if I were you, I would make damn sure they don't fire, because the marines always aim for the mizzenmast to cripple an enemy ship. And guess what you happen to be tied to?" Grana looked up at the gap between the two Marine ships and saw they might not make it.

Grana leapt up to the riggings, bunching up his muscles as he threw himself upward into the air. He disappeared into one of his portals and reappeared about 10 meters above his starting position. He pulled on the secondary mast so it was at 45 degrees to the left of the mizzenmast. A second leap and swing on an untied rope led him to the tertiary mast, which was turned 45 degrees to the right. As Grana finished this, their speed seemed to pick up considerably. Grana nodded as he saw they now would make it easily. He shimmied back down the rigging and took his place once more at the wheel. "Good...now the secondary and tertiary masts are helping catch as much wind as possible, instead of just getting in the way of the mizzenmmast. We should be able to clear the marines easily, but just in case..." Grana thought. "Hey, Sammi! Man the cannons, just in case things turn south! I saw a flint near the bow! Yoje! Sparkles! Get ready for a boarding party! If you see the Marines setting up bridges, sabotage them! Everyone else, pray to whatever god you believe in and get ready to fight!"

 

[Tim_Buoy]

Sylvester readied his whip. He had to stay in human form so sammi could still fight effectively. ?Thissss issss going to get a little rough? Sylvester said to no one in particular. As the marine ships drew closer Sylvester saw the marines rallying to the main deck with boarding supplies in hand. ?Anybody got a sssssspare knife??

 

[Mr. Omega]

Peter went to the smaller boat. He first threw all the supplies that he and Sammi had gotten onto the deck. He then went into the cabin of . It was roughly the size of about a closet, and then he opened a small compartment making it even bigger. He began emptying it as fast as he could. All sorts of things were thrown out there. A couple pouches similar to the ones he wore on his belt, a couple bags marked "Ammo" with a couple letters to differentiate each type, a metal suitcase with a combination lock on it, large quantities of scrap metal, a giant harpoon with a long set of rope attached to it, a few things one would find in some lab, and a table. "Ok, I got a cannon here... just got to get it out..." He grunted as he started pushing it out. It looked different compared to a normal cannon. It was about 2/3 the size, had a strange bin to dump the ammunition, a large crank on it and what looked like a set of tiny generators attached to it, and what appeared to be a set of iron sights on top. He pushed it onto the main ship, and moved it to the front. "My pride and joy... until my next great invention, at least... hopefully we won't have to use it, though."

He looked at the Marine ships. "Ok, if we hurry, we might be able to slip through the two ships without having to deal with a boarding party. Hopefully." Suddenly, cannonballs went flying from the Marine vessels, landing a good distance away from the ship. Peter stumbled a little, then grabbed onto the side "We just need to make sure we get through that opening. Just be sure to keep us away from the Marine ships themselves! Last thing we need is to deal with a boarding party! We've almost got this!" He kept looking at everyone there, and waited to either pass through or deal with the Marines.

 

[GoWithDAFro]

Yoje stretched out his legs in preparation for the fight that was most likely coming. "Jacque, if we have to, you and I can make it to the marines' ships and try to sabotage them before they even get a chance to attack."
