One Piece - Martialised

Grandline, New World, Solaris island

"Oi, big guy! You got a call on the transpondersnail!" A yawning middle aged man called over to the humongous form of Azul that was drifting on an orange rubber duck inside a pool in the middle of the small town.

"Wha-" Azul answered intelligently after having been ripped out of his sweet dreams by the middle aged man that had come over to the border of the pool and was scratching himself on his a.s.s while his trousers hung dangerously low on his h.i.p.s.

"I said you have a call on the transpondersnail. Over there..." the middle aged man said once more after which he yawned and walked over to the shadow of a nearby tree and slumped down against its trunk, returning to dreamland.

Azul meanwhile had lifted his sunglasses slightly and was in the process to take in his surroundings as if he wasn't really sure where he was right now. After a few slow seconds his memories seemed to return to him which made him grumble in annoyance to having been woken up.

Fumbling to get into a suitable position to stand up Azul forgot that his 'chair' was nothing but a rubber duck, even if it was on the enormous end size wise, and anyone who ever tried to stand up on any kind of swimming gear knows that it is one hell of a tricky buisiness.

Thus with a yelp Azuls makeshift ship capsized and caused the huge man to get soaked from top to bottom. Though due to his enormous size Azul ended up sitting with only half his body submerged which caused him to grumble once again.

On the sidelines however the bell like laughter caused Azul to burry his annoyance and march over to the small hut where the damn snail was still ringing, all the while accompanied by the echoing laughter of Robin who was literally crying on the ground having rolled down from her sunchair after having witnessed the elegance with which Azul left the pool.

Still grumbling internally about stupid rubber ducks Azul marched over to the by now tired looking transpondersnail from all the ringing and with a tick to his eyebrow snatched the mike from its shell.

"What?!" Azul grumbled into the mic in his annoyance, stunning whoever was on the other end for a second into silence after which the deep rumbling voice of Whitebeard came through, slightly amused it seems.

"Am I interrupting something, boy?" the man asked through the mic which brought another tick to Azuls eyebrow as he could still hear Robin laughing slightly in the background, now a little calmer.

"...No, nevermind. So, what's the matter old man?" Azul asked through the mic after taking a calming breath and shoving his thoughts about revenge for the damn rubber duck to the back of his mind for a later date.

"Hmm, we need to meet. We have some things to talk about." Whitebeard said through the mic, causing Azul to raise one eyebrow slightly.

"And why is that? You sound as if it is urgent." Azul answered while walking over to a small bar and began mixing himself another mochito as if it was second nature to him by now.

"After you f.u.c.k.e.d around with the world government certain events have been set in motion and you are in the center of it all, if you want to or not..." Whitebeard said over the mic while Azul could faintly hear something that sounded alot like a party in the background, even if it was faint.

"Hmm ye, I don't really care. But if you wanna talk so badly come on over. Robin and I have found a cozy little island when we entered the New World. Solaris it is called. Why don't you come on over? I bet your old bones could use some relaxation hehehehehe" Azul spoke into the mic, sipping on his mochito with a little umbrella inside of it while chuckling in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Gurararara, you got some balls to talk to me like that but no matter. Oi Marco! Is Solaris island one of ours?" Whitebeard said into the mic while halfway through his sentence called over to his son.

"I don't think so. Red-hair owns it, probably. Would fit him if it is as cozy as Azul described it." Marcos voice sounded faintly in the background. Azul though wasn't really listening as his gaze was set on the slumbering form of Robin that was stretching herself slightly like a lazy cat in the sun, causing his heart to speed up a little. His thoughts though were ripped away from his wandering imagination by Whitebeards deep voice.

"Hmm, no matter. We'll come over to you guys. In a week or so we'll be there. Take care of my daughter young man." Whitebeard said through the mic after which he simply hung up, leaving Azul alone with his thoughts which promptly began to wander again as soon as his gaze returned to the woman next to the pool after their conversation.

'God damn...! This so ain't fair...' Azul thought to himself as he kept watching the bombshell he had grown so fond of over time not realising that she was fully aware of the burning gaze that was roaming over her graceful form, bringing a small grin to Robins face.

'Finally fufufufu' Robin thought to herself while turning onto her stomach with glittering eyes and a smile on her face.
