Kan-Gar-Chu! (One Piece fanfic)

After finishing what she had set out to do she began to walk back down from the ship.

She arrived at the bottom of the ship and arrived on the dock where a man began to question her. "I am sorry but what are you doing with that ship? I don't think it is yours?"

Alyssia shook her head and responded calmly. "This ship belongs to pirates, they attacked me and my crew to steal my ship and belongings. I asked if they still wished to fight giving them the chance to back out but they did not listen and wished to even kill me. In exchange for their loss, I have claimed their belongings including this ship and I will also claim their bounty later."

The man looked shocked after hearing their words. "Don't you know that this is illegal?"

Alyssia shrugged. "What they had done was illegal. I am just defending myself, after they have been captured and will be turned in their belongings are ownerless so it cannot be considered stealing."

The man looked like he wanted to argue further but he closed his mouth and stormed off angrily. "Lawless bunch! All of them!"

Perhaps like many people who had heard about the newly ownerless ship, this man wished to try his luck and get some valuables but he was a step too late.

There may be some legal actions that the Island officials could take to claim the ship and the belongings for their own but before they acted most underground forces may act first and claim it for themselves through various methods.

Sadly Alyssia had already stated her claim and had already took everything so that it was ready to transport to her ship.

As she saw him leaving she closed her eyes for a moment and then smirked sarcastically. "A thief and a murderer lecturing me on morality and law.. how funny."

Even during her interaction she never let him get close and her guard was up so that was probably why he left so easily but as she closed her eyes she saw his skillset which showed several skills ranging from knife skills, theft skills, assassination skills and misdirection skills.

After she opened her eyes she had already purchased the misdirection and theft skills from him before going back to the ship.

She got a piece of wood and began to write on it [New owner: Alyssia Lucine, the sake of the ship will be brought up in a couple of days. If you wish to challenge this then come to my ship and settle the ownership by duel but you must put something at stake to gain something.], then she picked up some of the bags with Archie after she had placed the piece of wood in a place that many could see from the dock.

She looked at Archie who had several crates in his hands full of different things and asked. "Do you think they will understand me well enough?"

Archie looked at the sign before replying. "You just want to create a chance to fight don't you?"

Alyssia immediately retorted. "Not at all! I mean it would be good to fight some more but this is my way of warning them from approaching the ship and claiming ownership. If they want it then they must come to me and offer up something in return so that the exchange is fair but if they want to fight for it then I want something from them if they lose. After another one or two attempts from someone foolish many will give up and just use fair means of getting the ship."

Archie sighed as he said in a quiet voice. "She has not changed… now she is just getting worse and finding ways to disguise herself better. Battle maniac Alyssia of the mink tribe… she hasn't changed at al…"

Suddenly a kick landed on his stomach which pushed him back a little and made him have to steady himself but also the crates that he was carrying.

He was lucky that more force wasn't used or he would of dropped them all but he suddenly heard a chillingly cold voice. "Do you want to say that name again?"

'She heard me..' a cold sweat went down his back as he pleaded. "I'm sorry boss! I promise I will not say it again! Please forgive me."

Alyssia did not even look at him and continued walking while saying in a tired voice. "Fool. It doesn't matter."

She had been living a life full of duels, training and learning with the help of the system to improve her strength and martial arts but also earn many points to support her needs but that also came with a certain cost.

She earned many nicknames and rumours over the years that made her consider giving it all up and going into seclusion because it was too embarrassing but over time she learned to grow a thicker skin.

Around her crew who she was comfortable with, she was open to some jokes and name calling but when her past was brought up and the nicknames were mentioned she couldn't help but scold or hit on occasion but she was never really so rough with them that she could hurt them.

While they were continuing on their way Alyssia suddenly removed a pistol from her waist and pointed it towards an approaching man with a vigilant tone of voice. "So you came back."

The man looked shocked at her sudden response as he thought that he would not be noticed. 'Strange… I even found a chance to change my clothes and wear a human skin mask. How did she recognise me?'

"Your smell." As if knowing what he must be thinking she responded and then threw a rope at his feet. "Remove everything from your body that is dangerous or of value and tie this to your wrists and ankles. Do not leave it loose and do not make me ask you nicely twice."

The man frowned and then began to follow her orders as the gun was pointed towards his heart, he had no choice but to tie himself up and wait for instructions but inside he was screaming. 'Damn! This is asking nicely?! This crazy girl?!'

Although Alyssia had said that it was his smell that gave him away… that was true but she also recognised his skillset which was still fresh in her memory so she was identify him as the same person but in disguise.

He most likely knew that he had been exposed during the last meeting so got changed and disguised so that when she lets down her guard he could approach while she was carrying the goods back and stab her.

Once he had dealt with her then he could pick up her bag and run away before the other person has a chance to respond.

Unfortunately he had met the wrong opponent and got caught.

She looked at the mask on his face and couldn't help but show a look of disgust. 'Human skin masks how revolting. Even making yourself look like a kind adult male just so you could get close…. The underworld and their methods are starting to show their hideous side already.'

She pointed the gun and him and then calmly ordered him. "Keep walking towards my ship. You know where it is. If you try to flee then expect no mercy from me."

As she was watching him follow her instruction she couldn't help but think. 'Should I also hand him in for a reward? He must also have a stash somewhere. Money just keeps dropping from the skies. First a Sea King then a pirate crews ship and treasures and now a thief or assassins secret stash. The world is looking so good right now!'

If the thief knew her thoughts he would probably vomit blood.
