One Piece - Martialised

Grandline, New World, Dress Rosa

Not long after the Moby D.i.c.k and its crew were busy landing at the port of Dress Rosa which garnered a lot of curious eyes to the huge ship until someone spotted the Jolly Roger flapping at its main mast, which in turn caused clamouring and bustling at the port as people began yelling and running from left to right. After all it didn't happen everyday that the strongest man in the world docked at your harbour.

Azul meanwhile had gone down into his cabin and begun packing his small bundle along with Robin who had one for herself. Afterwards the two walked back up on deck where they joined Whitebeard who was overseeing the docking of his ship.

"You are leaving then?" The captain of the Moby D.i.c.k asked the duo while keeping his eyes on the port before him.

"Yes. It's time that I continue my journey. Having a vacation was nice and all but my spirit yearns for a good bloody fight!" Azul said with a smile as he was munching on an apple.

"I see. And you are sure you want to join him on his journey? You would be saver on my ship, you know." Whitebeard spoke to Robin who only smiled in response causing Whitebeard to nod his head in understanding.

"Here, take this. You will need it if you want to reach paradise. Your logpost is of no use in the New World. Here you need one of these. Each of the three compase needles points to the location of an island. The harder one needle vibrates the higher the chance of a naturally dangerous island. Some islands even change their positions so it's never a bad idea to be a little bit more flexible when navigating the new world." Whitebeard said while handing a logpose over to Azul who curiously took it from him. It looked mostly the same to the one from paradise. The only difference being three small compass' instead of one, each pointing to a different island.

"Thanks old man. We'll come visit once we reach the new world again. You've got my number if you need anything." Azul said while putting the logpose onto his wrist. Afterwards while waving to Whitebeard in goodbye walked down the gangway and set foot onto land with Robin doing the same.

Turning his head towards the town Azul spoke to Robin while walking: "Do you wanna go take a quick look around the city before we hightail out of here?"

"No, I'm not really in the mood to go sightseeing. Let's just get out of here." Robin replied which caused Azul to falter in his steps a little.

"Say what? Did you just decline the offer to go shopping? Are you sick or something?" He asked Robin which earned him an amused look from said woman who afterwards only shrugged her shoulders as if not knowing what was wrong with her either.

"Alright, suits me just as well." Azul replied in turn after which he lifted Robin into his arms and ignited his legs causing red flames to billow into the sky. Bending his knees Azul gathered his strength in his legs and with a slight crack of the concrete below his feet disappeared in the horizon, Robins elated scream echoing behind him all the way.
