Who are you to judge him?

Galan frowned and Luffy said "Me too." Zoro struggled to stand up, saying "Same here." Sanji exhaled smoke, "I will die before Nami-chwan." Usopp walked over with shaky legs "I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I have 8-8000 men behind m-m-m-me!"

Galan looked at the group and frowned "You're all innocents." Zoro pointed a thumb at his chest, saying "I've killed over a thousand people!" Sanji added, "I've sexually harassed many more!" Usopp shivered "I conquered 17 islands!" Luffy said firmly "And I'm the King of the Pirates!"

They stood in front of Nami as Luffy said firmly with a grim expression "So if you want to kill my Navigator, you'll have to kill us!" the other three nodded and Galan frowned, pulling a shell from his pocket, saying "This is a Nullifier. It has a Seastone slug in it. Seastone will make your Devil Fruit powers disappear, meaning if this hits you. You're dead."

He changed to the Nullifier and pressed the gun on Luffy's head, saying "Say it again." The crew paled and Zoro pushed Luffy out of the way, pressing his head on the barrel, grinning "Come on, asshole. Make my day!"

Sanji kicked him and pressed the barrel against him, saying "I can take it." Usopp shivered and jumped in the way saying "Usopp Block!" before falling to the ground. Nami covered her mouth and teared up, extremely moved.

Olvia was stunned, staring at the kids in a daze, unable to believe what she was seeing.

Luffy punched the three in the stomach, sending them to the ground before standing in front of the barrel. He crossed his arms and grinned, chuckling "We'll trade! One Pirate King for my crew and the Octopus! Shishishishishi~" Galan looked at him expressionlessly for a moment as the three groaned on the ground before saying "Farewell, Pirate King."

He pressed against Luffy's forehead and pulled the trigger as Nami shouted "NOO!" the shotgun moved to the side in an instant and Luffy didn't even flinch, staring at Galan, exhaling smoke from his nose with a grin, "Heh heh!" a loud bang was heard and the Crew felt like everything was going in slow motion.

However the barrel fired next to Luffy's head as Galan looked at him expressionlessly. Luffy looked around and grinned "I'm alive!" Galan said gently, "It was a blank." before walking to Arlong.

The crew recovered from their cold sweat and hugged Luffy quickly. Hachi wiped the tears from his eyes and clapped. Olvia looked at Galan with a sweet smile, she turned her head and looked at the tree in the distance, seeing a hole in it.

Yeah… A blank…

The tree fell down and covered the evidence, burying his lie.

Galan picked up Arlong and walked to Olvia saying flatly "I found chum." She smiled at him and replied "Are you surprised I'm not terrified?" Galan's lips twitched into an annoyed frown as he ignored her, she giggled and hugged his arm.

The blue haired girl stopped vomiting and smiled "That was… the most touching thing I've ever seen… My sister found good friends…" Galan turned to her and looked down, saying "Girl. You're Nojiko?" Nojiko looked up and swallowed fearfully, "Yes, sir! Sorry for yelling, sir. Please don't kill me, sir."

Galan frowned and looked her up and down, saying "Bell-mere's daughters?" Nojiko was stunned and said "You know Bell-Mere!?" Galan didn't answer, saying instead "You have a tougher mind than her."

Just as everyone was celebrating… or not…

A man walked over with a Marine troop, chuckling "I saw the whole thing! Fortunately for me, I picked up a treasure today!" maybe he was blind, or just so incredibly idiotic that he didn't recognize Galan nor see the Vice-Admiral coat on Olvia's shoulders.

Maybe he had never seen one before.

Galan turned to him and said "Who are you?" Nojiko said hatefully "That's him! That's the Marine!" Nami and the rest turned around to see the Marine chuckling "What are you talking about? She's delusional, give her a bounty too." Galan frowned and said "I was talking to you, soldier."

The Marine waved him off, "Hello? Who cares about you! I bet you'll get an incredible bounty! I don't talk with scum!" Galan fell silent and Olvia burst out laughing, Nojiko was confused and Sanji said "Goodbye, idiot…" Nami, Zoro, and Usopp looked at him asking "Huh? You know who he is, Sanji?"

Sanji lit a cigarette and nodded while Luffy said plainly "He's the Fleet Admiral." Nami and Usopp were horrified and punched him in the head, shouting "WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY THAT BEFORE!?" Luffy was confused and replied "You never asked!"

The Marine didn't believe them at all, sneering "Impersonating the Fleet Admiral. A heavy crime." Olvia sighed and said "Oh boy… What Base are you from, Soldier?" as she flashed the Vice-Admiral epaulets.

The Marines behind the man froze and started shaking as they turned to Galan, swallowing. The Man didn't seem to notice and snorted "Stole from a Marine, a heavy crime!" Galan frowned and said "I'm done talking. I'll find out which base you're from when I'm finished with you. The punishment for corruption is death." as he cocked his shotgun, blasting a marine away.

The Man froze and stared at Galan in fear shouting "We're Marines!" Galan didn't waste words with him, charging into the group of Marines, punching through them. He punched through 3 in a line and tore them in half, shooting his knee out and blowing a hole in another, erasing a circle in his body.

Galan whipped his hand out and smashed several to meat paste before grabbing one that was running by the leg. He lifted him up and smashed him into the ground, blowing up the upper half of his body.

Another one was grabbed by the neck and smashed head first into another, both heads popping like balloons. Another one was thrown into the stone wall and splattered like an insect before another had a shotgun in his mouth.

Galan looked at him and blew out the back of his head without blinking, cocking his shotgun again aiming at the runners. A few shots and they all fell to the ground with holes in their heads.

The only one left was the idiot, who was so terrified at this point, he fell down and pissed himself. Galan grabbed his hair and jerked him to his face, the man saw the bloodied face and screeched in fear, shouting "Don't kill me! Don't! Please! My brother is a Rear-Admiral! He'll take revenge!"

Galan pinched his lower jaw and said "Which base are you from." pressing the shotgun on his crotch. The man started panicking, saying "You can't do this! You can't!" Galan lifted him by his face and said "Look at all the damage in this town. Marines are supported to protect and serve the people. You and all the disgusting faggots in Marineford make me sick. Don't worry because very soon there won't be a single one of you. If I could publicly execute every piece of shit rat fuck that gets fat in the Marine corps, I would do it every day."

Galan blew off the man's knee, locking the screams in his throat as the man's eyes bulged in pain, "Make an example out of you disgusting degenerates." before blowing out the other knee, "All of your kind, those inhuman freaks who feed off of evil like hungry whores, I'll kill them all!"

He pulled the man's face close and looked in his eyes, "Your brother will die as soon as I get to Marineford. I can promise you this. Your bullshit killed who knows how many Marines who came to help and countless innocents including a woman whom I happen to have once called a comrade."

He tossed the man to the ground and blew away his crotch before cocking the gun and blasting away his hands, working his way up, making it as painful as possible. The Man's neck was vibrating but no noise was coming out, only voiceless screams.

Galan looked down at him without a single ripple in his eye before spattering his brains across the dirt. He snorted and Olvia rubbed his back gently. The crew looked at the scene and remembered Galan's words before getting sad.

Nami asked hesitantly "You knew my mother?" Galan grabbed the Punk-12 by the middle of the barrel and didn't answer, dragging Arlong with him into the town silently.

Olvia stayed there and sighed. Nojiko asked with lingering fear "Is he always like that?" Olvia forced a smile, replying "You won't believe me if I tell you that he's actually very kind." everyone was speechless, were they 3 year olds? Who would believe you?

Olvia sighed again and shook her head, "He's had a rough life and he deals with things his own way. He's saved a lot of people by his own means. He also has his own troubles, not everything is sunshine and rainbows in the real world. Things like this happen everyday and he knows. It burns him inside but he only knows how to react like this."

She snorted and continued "So yeah, you won't believe me and he'll never say it. He's not perfect but he's my hero. The only man to selflessly take all the evil in this world and put it on his back, carrying the burden of making it a better place for everyone else. So before you judge him, you should think about whether you're even qualified to do so in the first place." before turning around and walking towards the man's marine ship, her coat fluttering behind her.

All of them fell silent at Olvia's words, not knowing what to say.
