[Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]
Third Person POV

Sabaody Archipelago, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

A silence fell over the place as everyone looked at Luffy, waiting to know what he planned to do.

"First... I have a question. Are you going to participate in this war?" Luffy looked at Rayleigh first.

"No," he commented, picking up a bottle from the counter and drinking.

"Can I know why? Not that I'm judging you, I will respect your decision, I'm just curious," Luffy said, while the crew looked confused, as no one knew this was Roger's son, their former captain.

"Because it's an insult to Whitebeard and even to my old enemies. I would even be shaming my own captain if I did that. Everyone chooses their own path and has their own crew, but not that I think you shouldn't get involved in this war, after all, he is your foster brother, right?" Rayleigh spoke; after all, he had no bond with Roger's son, and Whitebeard would take care of it, as Ace belonged to his crew.

"I understand. I just wanted to know exactly what you thought about it," Luffy said, looking at him. "But it's okay, I can understand that..." Luffy spoke with a smile and looked at his crew.

"Well... we'll split into three groups leaving this island..." Luffy began.

"Three groups? Aren't we all going to participate in the war?" Kuina asked.

"Yes, we are. But I want part of you to go to the New World, Enel with his flying ship will be my best option..." Luffy said while Enel raised an eyebrow.

"Not just that, I want you to learn to do this thing..." Luffy showed a paper and took it to the thunder logia user. He took it and started reading, as an engineer, he wasn't a fool to understand it.

"This..." Enel murmured.

"Yes, I want you to learn to create static fields with your akuma no mi, that interfere with all communication devices, if you learn to do that, we can attack enemies without them being able to call for reinforcements," Luffy said, and Enel nodded, interested.

"What do you intend to do, Luffy, go to the New World?" Nojiko asked, curious.

"I want to take some hostages before going to the war, unfortunately, we couldn't catch those we knocked down, but we will do that soon before the government suspects anything," Luffy said with a rogue smile.

"Hostages..." Vivi murmured.

"In any case, the other group will be Bepo," he began, leaving the polar bear a little confused.

"Me, captain?" He scratched his head.

"Yes... We need you to take Big Mom's son on our ship with the Germa to Skypiea," Luffy said; after all, he needed to get rid of this burden. He looked at Bonney at that moment. "Bonney, will you join him? I intend to leave you in a place where you can train and strengthen, both you and your crew for the fleet, but I want you in the main crew," Luffy said, surprising some as they looked at the pink-haired girl; after all, it was surprising that Luffy was inviting someone else to the group.

"I never said I agreed to join your crew!!" Bonney exclaimed.

"Don't be like that, I'll wait for your decision until the end of the war, then, I hope you come with me," Luffy said, and the girl fell silent after that.

"So where will the third group go, Luffy?" Nami asked.

"It will be the main group with our ship... That's why I need Rayleigh to coat the Black Pearl. We are going to attack one of the World Government's structures by going underwater," Luffy said.

"One of the great structures... Like Enies Lobby, what's left is Marineford and Impel Down... Impel Down?!" Shakky commented, stunned by Monkey D. Luffy's audacity.

"We are going to attack the largest prison in the world, where all the worst criminals are!" Usopp shouted, alarmed by that, and everyone looked stunned at Luffy.

"Yes... We are going to invade the prison," Luffy confirmed.

"Wait, Luffy, but we would need to use the government gates to navigate those waters! Which won't be possible otherwise, sailing through more water won't help much!" Nami exclaimed.

"Yes, generally it would be like that, but we have Shira, she can ask the Sea Kings to pull our ship from the bottom of the sea, no current can stop us from sailing," Luffy said and immediately looked at Usopp. "I want you to install thick chains on the ship while Rayleigh is doing his work," he requested.

Usopp, still stunned, nodded while everyone agreed with Luffy's reasoning. Rayleigh and Shakky were doubtful about his words, after all, was Luffy saying that the mermaid controlled the Sea Kings? What kind of power is that...?

"We're going to rescue your brother in Impel Down...?" Zoro asked, being one of the few who were not afraid to invade the prison.

"No... we won't have time for that... We need Enel to learn his new power to start the plan. Cutting off our enemies' communication will be essential for the success of our operations..." Luffy said while planning to strengthen Enel's power several times over in the coming days.

"The maintenance of the ship will also take a few days, right Rayleigh..." Luffy said while the old man nodded. "I intend to spend a few days analyzing our plans and helping you with every aspect of them," Luffy said.

"Luffy... If we're not going to save your brother in Impel Down... what are we going to do in the prison?" Lami asked.

"A person close to me is imprisoned due to the coming war; it's time to get them..." Luffy said mysteriously, and since his captain didn't seem to want to reveal it, he probably wouldn't, even if they insisted. After all, he wanted to leave that for when he reached the sixth level of the submerged prison.

"After Impel Down, are we going to war, Captain?" Hugo asked.

"Yes, although I want you with Enel in the New World, we will meet before invading Impel Down to create the static field in the prison and invade it. It will be a fairly easy task for our current strength, so don't worry," Luffy said confidently.

"So we're going to invade Impel Down... and go to the war in Marineford..." Reiju murmured.

"Exactly, it's time for the world to fear us, and this war will make everyone see that we are the force that will dominate the seas," Luffy said with a smile.

"That's really incredible to hear... Mugiwara-Boy..." Shakky commented.

"This generation is proving to be unbeatable..." Rayleigh also commented.

"This is good... the navy won't bother us anymore, will they Captain?" Zoro asked.

"No..." Luffy replied with a tone of certainty. The navy and the World Government wouldn't bother them with this upcoming war, so Luffy was ready to surprise them.

"That's good... then I'm going to train," Zoro commented, starting to leave.

"I'll train too," Kuina said, leaving with Zoro. She wanted to have a fight with the current strongest swordsman in the world like Zoro; this was a great opportunity.

"Great, we'll leave here in a few days, so train or do whatever you want. Those who want to grow faster, find me while I'm with Enel," Luffy commented. After all, his strength was very good after leaving Skypiea; a few days of training wouldn't change much.

The members around the bar nodded while Zoro and Kuina were already leaving. Some were thoughtful about what to do; among them were those who wanted to train and those who wanted to enjoy the island more.

"I'll just ask Bepo to take Uta and our prisoners to Skypiea, after all, this will be the longest trip and will take days... so he can join us in the war," Luffy said, and Uta nodded. She really didn't want to go into the middle of a war full of deaths, but she understood Luffy's reason for participating to save his brother.

"Well, can you show me your ship? I heard you usually carry it in your pocket," Rayleigh commented, and Luffy nodded.

"Yes. Let's go outside to start our work..." Luffy said, and they started to leave shortly after.

Luffy placed his ship by pulling it out of his pocket, and it grew until it hit the ground with a loud sound in the area.

"It's a beautiful and quite intimidating ship... Who built it?" Rayleigh asked curiously, and Luffy didn't quite know how to answer that question.

"Well... No one," Luffy replied. "I got it in the East Blue, but it's hard to explain... but no one built this ship," Luffy murmured, after all, it was a modification made by the system.

"I think I can understand that..." Rayleigh said, although he didn't understand anything. "Anyway, let's start working on it. It's good to have it here, so I don't have to go to the port to do it..." Rayleigh said and jumped onto the ship.

"Enel, I want you to start studying the papers. I'll be with you soon. As for the rest of you, feel free to enjoy the island or train," Luffy said to his crew, then looked at the last two members. "Bepo and Uta, I'll get the prisoners and put them on the Sunny tomorrow. You can leave then. Speaking of which, I think I'll visit them in the prison..." He said, and both nodded, though Bepo would need his Black Power wig later for that.

Luffy jumped onto the ship while Rayleigh analyzed the place before starting to work and entered the ship, heading to the prison.

"Hello..." Luffy appeared, greeting everyone in the place, where all the members of Germa were on one side and Cracker on the other, all chained.

"Mugiwara!" Cracker growled while Reiju's family growled at Luffy.

"Don't be so enraged..." Luffy said, walking close to them.

"Do you know what you're doing? My mother will soon be sending troops here... You've angered a Yonko, remember that!" Cracker growled.

"What did you think would happen when you came to threaten me? Know that I'm not afraid of Big Mom, and when I enter the New World, I'm going to bring her down." Luffy said firmly, leaving Cracker a little stunned by that declaration. Before he could say anything, Luffy continued.

"And even if she's angry with me and preparing troops... She'll soon stop that, after all, tomorrow there will be news of a war between a Yonko and the Navy... I doubt she'll miss the opportunity to seize new territories with that." Luffy commented while Cracker looked at him, wondering whether to believe Luffy's words or not.

"Anyway, that doesn't matter. You'll be going to my prison. I'll decide what to do with you after the war," Luffy commented.

His gaze turned to the Vinsmoke family. "Let me ask you a question." Luffy began. "I haven't killed you yet because Reiju asked me not to, but understand that she no longer belongs to your family, so you better not try anything with her," Luffy said in a threatening tone. He might not want to kill a chained enemy, but he could release them if he was determined to kill them and give them a chance to defend themselves.

Judge looked at Luffy with clenched teeth but said nothing.

"Tell me, where is Sanji?" Luffy asked curiously, after all, Sanji exists in this world.

"Sanji? What about him?" One of the brothers looked at Luffy strangely, wondering why he was interested in that guy.

"He married my sister..." It wasn't the family members who answered, but Cracker.

"Your sister?" Luffy was surprised, 'so he was with Pudding?' Luffy thought.

"Yes... We've had an alliance with Big Mom for over a year. Sanji was the bargaining chip... he lives in Whole Cake..." Judge said calmly.

"I see... Well, I'll arrange for some special food to be brought to you, after all, tomorrow you'll be leaving for my base." Luffy finished before turning around and leaving.
