While Kaito was comforting Vivi, Nami noticed that the two of them were still standing.
"Hey, you two! we need to go!"
Kaito and Vivi heard her shout as Kaito turned around in her direction and nodded in response.
"We should go" Kaito suggested.
"Wait, we need to find Carue first!" Vivi stated.
"...Carue?" Kaito questioned.
"He's my friend duck" Vivi answered.
"Oh, then we better find your friend fast" Kaito responded.
The two of them started running around the town meanwhile Nami and Zoro went to the ship first while Luffy went to get Usopp and Sanji.
"Princess, there's not enough time... we need to go now"
Kaito stated as he glanced at Vivi who was looking around frantically to search for her friend.
"No... not yet, I'm sure Carue is here somewhere"
Vivi responded with an anxious look as she started to increase her speed.
"Hmm... how about we go ask the others for help, It will speed up the search for your friend"
Kaito suggested as he patted her shoulder to halt her movements while Vivi contemplates his suggestion and nodded in the end.
They ran to the ship as the two happened to arrive at exactly the same time as Luffy who was dragging Usopp and Sanji on the ground.
"You guys are finally here, what took you so long!?"
Nami asked as she shouted at them on the ship with a nervous and anxious look.
"I forgot where the bar was located"
Luffy answered with a blank look while still having Sanji and Usopp in his hands who were bruised due to him dragging them.
"The two of us had to run around the town to look for Vivi's duck friend"
Kaito answered back with Vivi who was sweating a bit from running around.
"What... a duck? we don't have time for that!" Nami shouted.
"But I can't just leave him here!" Vivi retorted.
Nami and Vivi were arguing for a bit when Zoro walked in with a confused look.
"What's wrong with these two?" Zoro asked.
"They're arguing about Vivi's duck friend" Kaito answered.
"Oh, you mean him?" Zoro inquired.
Quack~
Zoro pointed at the duck who somehow appeared besides him while Kaito was surprised a bit and looked amused at the duck.
Nami and Vivi heard a quack and turned to look at where the sound was as they looked dumbfounded at the duck who was nonchalantly waving at Vivi.
"That's where you were!?"
"That's where you were!?"
Nami shouted in disbelief and was a little bit shocked as she didn't notice the duck when she arrived at the ship while Vivi was frustrated from worrying too much.
After a while, the group had finally settled down on the ship as they started to sail to the ocean and away from the island.
"Hey, so how many guys are gonna come after us?"
Luffy asked nonchalantly as he stared at Vivi with a calm look.
"I can't say for sure... there's reportedly 2000 people working for Baroque Works"
Vivi answered in a worried tone as she stared at Luffy with an uncertain look.
"You mean we could have a 1000 people after us?" Nami exclaimed.
"It's possible considering how serious knowing the boss' real identity is" Vivi stated.
"A thousand people, huh... you've fought a hundred people of the Baroque Works, what do you think, Zoro?" Kaito asked.
"They're so-so, I guess" Zoro answered.
While the group was discussing the strength of the organization, Usopp and Sanji woke up feeling sore all over their body.
"Huh... what's going on!? Why did we have to set sail so soon!? Can't we at least stay one more night!? Their party was a blast and they have so many cute girls!?" Sanji disputed.
"That's right, you have no idea if we'll ever come across a town as nice as that one! Come on let's go back" Usopp complained.
The two were yelling while trying to convince the group to go back with a reluctant face.
"One of you oughta go explain what happened..." Zoro suggested.
"Not me" Kaito stated.
"Consider it done" Nami declared.
Nami started walking towards the two with a cold smile and a staff in her hands as she prepared to beat up the two.
'Good luck, you two...'
Kaito encouraged the two inwardly as he stared at Usopp and Sanji pitifully as he experienced her monstrous strength firsthand.
Bonk~ Bonk~
Nami took down Usopp and Sanji on the ground as the group stared at the two in silence.
"Oh, the fog is lifting"
Nami stated as she saw the fog receding while looking unbothered at the fact that she just beat up Sanji and Usopp.
"Be careful not to crash your ship into the rocks near the shore"
"No need to worry, I'll take care of it... wait, who was that just now?"
Nami asked with a nervous look as she didn't recognize the voice.
"Congratulations on your escape~"
Everyone was alarmed as they heard an unfamiliar voice and turned to look at where the voice came from.
"Wha!?"
"Who's that!?"
The group exclaimed as they saw a woman in a cowboy outfit sitting atop a wooden railing on the second floor of the ship.
"What a nice ship this is... that's right, I must tell you Ms.Wednesday... I met up with Mr.8 a little while ago..."
The woman stated as she stared at Vivi with an amused smile.
"Are you saying... it was you who did that to Igaram...!?"
Vivi asked as she stared at the woman with resentment in her eyes and was about to charge at her when someone patted her shoulder.
"Calm down, princess... we need to ask questions first"
Kaito stated as he grab Vivi's shoulder in order to stop her from charging at the woman.
"That's right, why're you at our ship anyways?"
Luffy asked as he stared at the woman while she only smiled at him and turned to look at Vivi back.
"Hah... what're you doing all the way out here, Ms.All-Sunday"
Vivi took a deep breath to calm her emotions down as she asked the woman.
'Ms.All-Sunday!?'
