A sad groan echoed through the ship as a hopeless moan shuddered throughout the entire ship . Sorren sat at the head of the ship, his entire body aching as he looked at the dwindling chunk of ice that had been their "home" for what could only be a demoralizing two weeks .
Terrick, Sorren and Angella had all awakened some form of Haki, they now knew what it would feel like and Lorean hoped that by the time they entered the grand line the crew would have some level of mastery on the mysterious force .
Sorren was finally able to awaken his brand of Conquerors Haki at will, though at the moment it would only affect the weakest of marines, and within the crew could only grant Sorren the temporary ability to stand in the presence of Lorean or Fawkes if their will was directed at him .
The chilly wind wailed as the icy waters of the waters drew rapids that ruthlessly attempted to ravage the base of the ship that barely held out against the onslaught . "Boss this ship is s.h.i.t . . " Terrick moaned as he polished his daggers once more . It looked like he was quite obsessed with the dagger in his hand, that looked not much different than his others, with the only difference being the wooden pommel in contrast with the other clothe covered ones .
"I know, I was expecting the Marines to have more of a budget, you think we should take it a little easy on them?" I said as I looked over at him with an eye closed . Fawkes chuckled with a little mirth in his tone as he prepared what looked like a c.o.c.ktail in a manner that looked like too much like a bar tender .

A snicker echoed out from the corner of the ship as Angella chuckled looking at the novel that she had gotten from Fawkes"s rucksack . It was a children"s novel on the man that was called "Noland the trickster", probably laughing at the many things that people believed about him .
I didn"t have it in me to tell her that most of the things that people accused him of saying or doing was just things they pegged on him to justify his execution .
Slowly the wind picked up as I jumped off my sitting spot to navigate our way to the next spot on our travel plan hoping that the ship held up so I didn"t have to make a detour to stock up on a new one on the way .
"That being said, where are our bounties! I want bounties!!!!" I roared at the sky as I pushed around the steering wheel, a visible tick of anger on my forehead .

A sudden shudder ran through the ship as I carefully dodged an iceberg that suddenly popped out of the sea, this was going to be an annoying trip . . I thought as I sighed .

(Sengoku)
Sengoku sighed as he sifted through a huge pile of paperwork that had found its way over his desk . He had had a terrible premonition for roughly the past month, as soon as the famed warlord of the Donquixote family the vile premonition had only gotten stronger .
A warlord who would be almost invincible even in the new world had been taken down in one of the blues!

Almost immediately Sengoku had mobilized Garp in the hopes that the situation could be averted at its roots, but even Garp who had stood shoulder to shoulder with the late pirate king, had been unable to find them!
This could only mean one thing, though Sengoku hoped against hope that it was not the case . He still had chills from that night roughly six years ago, when the five elder stars had summoned him to witness what they had hoped would be a morale booster .
That day still gave him sleepless nights as he saw the face of the monsters that could end the conventional world with a single move . The famous pirate Jack, against the final fighting force of the World Government had truly given him a harsh wake up call .
The premonition he felt now, had a hint of what he felt at that time back then, a premonition of the final war - "the End war!!" The war that would decide the fate of the world as he knew it . He feared it, the war that would rile up the seas of the world, the sea of the new world would froth at the smell of the continuous firing of the ancient weapons and the seas of the four blues would turn red with the fervor the battle brought!
Sengoku was sure of it, men like the paltry Kaido would be the first to die in this war, and a hint of fear at this impending war was what drove Sengoku to do anything, he would to anything to drive this impending despair as far as he could, unknowingly this was what he had been fighting for back when he was in the field, back to back with the men that now still fought at the front line .

To him this battle was something that he was not prepared for, as an old war veteran, he knew that it was an undeniable eventuality, all he wanted was to outlive it, now he felt it, the stress of the last few decades weathering away at the bones of his frame, what used to be a cheerful and naïve marine had now turned into a despondent and desperate man that would do anything to delay his own impending doom .
Sengoku chuckled in self depreciation as he pondered how he had turned into the type of inactive man that he had scorned back when he had been a younger marine .
"Yes, I will do anything to delay that war, anything, even the genocide of millions… . " he thought drearily as he redoubled his will and leaned over a report, before dipping his quill into a pot of ink and signing his name over the report .
With this report and with a hard heart, he had just consigned an island to a buster call . . . …
