Victoria Punk

As Killer, Heat, Wire, and the rest of their comrades battled against overwhelming odds, the enemy closed in, their numbers seemingly endless. They suffered massive casualties as they lost half of their initial number, and exhaustion weighed heavily on their shoulders, and defeat seemed inevitable.

But just as they braced themselves for the final onslaught, a thunderous crash echoed through the room. Kid and Kai burst through the doors, bloodied but defiant.

Relief washed over Killer's face under his mask as he saw the twins' arrival. "About time you two showed up! We were starting to think we were done for"

Kid held Killbane's severed head high, a wicked smile spreading across his face. "Look what we've got here! Your big boss is nothing more than a headless corpse now!"

The enemy's morale plummeted as they witnessed their leader's lifeless face, their fighting spirit faltering.

Kai's voice rang out with authority. "This is your chance to surrender. Lay down your weapons and submit to the new order…or you could die with your boss"

Silence hung in the air as the enemy members exchanged hesitant glances. The weight of their fallen leader's head in Kid's hand was a stark reminder of the consequences they faced.

In that moment, the enemy's resolve crumbled, and one by one, they dropped their weapons, surrendering to the Eustass twins. Although they still were some people who refused to comply, their numbers were small, and they were quickly disposed of.

"You guys held them back well" Kai said with a smile as he approached Killer, Heat, and Wire. The trio visibly relaxed, their relief evident upon seeing the twins.

Kid's voice dripped with satisfaction as he tossed Killbane's severed head onto the ground. "That guy's expression was priceless when Kai crushed his skull."

Killer's shoulders sagged with relief "It's always right to trust our backs to you"

Heat nodded, wiping sweat from his brow. "We were on the edge, but you showed up just in time."

Wire let out a breath he didn't realize he was holding.

"No worries, we're in this together. I've got your backs, always!" Kai declared, flashing a reassuring smile as he placed his hand on Killer's shoulder.

As Killer, Kid, and Kai stood amidst the aftermath of the fierce battle, satisfaction radiated from their faces. The memory of Doryunaika, their childhood friend and Killer and Kid's first love, weighed heavily on their hearts. The Morningstar and Killbane were responsible for her tragic demise, and now they had been avenged.

Kid's smirk widened, a mix of relief and triumph. "Finally, that bastard got what he deserved"

Killer's gaze turned introspective, his voice tinged with a hint of sadness. "Doryunaika... this is the final closure I guess"

Kai nodded solemnly, memories of their fallen friend flooding his mind. "We did it for her. Now she can rest in peace"

The moment of satisfaction was fleeting, replaced by uncertainty as they looked at each other, contemplating the future that lay ahead.

Heat broke the silence "So, what do we do now that we've taken down the Morningstar?"

Killer crossed his arms, a contemplative expression on his face. "We could take their place and rule over the four towns"

Kai smiled excitedly as he was thinking of something else "Or we could set sail and become pirates. Roaming the seas and fighting stronger opponents while looking for the ultimate treasure sounds more fun!"

Kid's grin widened, his mischievous nature shining through. "Now that sounds like a hell of an adventure! Imagine the chaos we could cause!"

Killer's stern expression behind the mask softened, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "You two... Pirates, huh? Well, count me in. I'll be right there by your side."

Heat and Wire, who had been silently listening, exchanged glances before grinning widely.

Heat spoke up, excitement lacing his voice. "If you guys are becoming pirates, then we're coming along for the ride! We've got your backs!"

Wire nodded enthusiastically. "Absolutely! We've fought together through thick and thin. It's only natural we continue this journey together as pirates."

Kid's laughter echoed through the room, filled with excitement and anticipation. "Alright, then it's settled! The five of us, taking on the Grand Line and beyond! We'll be the most notorious and badass pirate crew the world has ever seen!"

"Only if you follow my lead that is" Kai said.

Kid stood confidently, pointing at himself. "Now way, I should be the captain! I'm the one with the style, the charm, and the magnetic personality!"

Kai rolled his eyes, a smirk playing on his lips. " Charisma, huh? More like a knack for causing chaos and mayhem. We need someone level-headed and strategic at the helm. That's me."

Killer, observing the exchange, couldn't help but shake his head. "You two never change, do you? Always butting heads, even over the smallest things."

Heat chuckled, shaking his head. "Yeah, it's like they're stuck in a perpetual sibling rivalry."

Wire chimed in, grinning mischievously. "Well, at least it keeps things interesting around"

Kid glared at Kai, jabbing a finger in his direction. "You just want to be captain because you're jealous of my style!"

Kai laughed, raising an eyebrow. "Jealous? Please. I've got my own style, and it's way more refined than your flashy antics."

Their banter continued back and forth, everyone around them exchanging amused glances as the two bickered.

"Guys, guys," Killer interjected, raising his hands in a calming gesture. "I've got a suggestion. How about you two become co-captains?"

Kid and Kai both blinked in surprise, their arguments coming to a halt. They turned to Killer, perplexed expressions on their faces.

Killer continued, a knowing smile on his lips behind his mask "Think about it. Kai, with your charisma and air of authority, you'll be the face of our crew and the driving force behind our action. Kid, with your fearlessness and explosive energy, you'll be the unstoppable force that propels us forward"

Kid's eyes widened, a mischievous grin forming on his face. "Unstoppable force, huh? I like the sound of that!"

Kai nodded, a calm assurance radiating from him. "Is that so?...Then I'll use that charisma and authority to rally our crew and keep things in order"

Heat chimed in, a playful grin spreading across his face. "Yeah, you two balance each other out. It's like yin and yang."

Wire nodded in agreement. "Exactly. Together, you'll make a formidable leadership duo."

Kid and Kai exchanged glances, their competitive spirits slowly subsiding as they contemplated Killer's suggestion. A shared smirk formed on their faces.

Kid extended his hand towards Kai. "Co-captains, huh? I guess that could work."

Kai clasped Kid's hand firmly. "Let's turn this world upside down"

Killer chuckled, shaking his head. "Looks like we've reached a compromise. Co-captains it is"

Laughter erupted from the crew as the tension dissipated. Their argument had transformed into a newfound understanding.

Heat slapped Kid on the back, his voice filled with laughter. "Yeah, and maybe you two can argue over who gets to steer the ship next. That should be entertaining."

Wire grinned, playfully nudging Kai's arm. "Or who gets to decide the crew's attire. I'm sure that will be a riveting debate."

"Alright, that's it…time to get the hell out of this dump!" Kai exclaimed, and without hesitation, everyone followed suit, leaving the place behind.

Days passed, and the four towns underwent a transformation. The Morningstar assets fell into the hands of Kid and Kai, who now stood as the new bosses of the island's four towns.

With their newfound status and resources, Kai and Kid set out to construct their ship and accumulate funds for their upcoming journey. They recognized the expenses involved in purchasing supplies, maintaining the ship, and other necessary expenses. While they intended to finance these costs through piracy, they understood the importance of having a reserve of money as well. Thus, they worked diligently to gather funds for both immediate and future needs.

Kid, Kai, Killer, Heat, and Wire set to work on building their pirate ship. With their combined efforts, they gathered the necessary materials and enlisted skilled craftsmen to construct their vessel.

They also took the time to devote themselves to honing their skills and growing stronger. With each passing day, they trained tirelessly, pushing themselves to their limits. The goal was clear in their minds: to set sail on their pirate journey when they turned 18, a year and a half from then, fully prepared for the challenges that awaited them.

…

…

…

A year and a half later,

standing on the shore of the island, their ship stood tall and proud, ready to set sail. The five comrades exchanged glances, a mixture of excitement and determination reflected in their eyes.

Kid grinned mischievously, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Alright, mates, the moment we've all been waiting for! Our own pirate ship, built from the spoils of our victories!"

Kai nodded, a proud smile spreading across his face "From this moment forward, we are no longer the gang bosses of Kinzoku Island's four towns but the Eustass Pirates!"

Killer crossed his arms, his gaze fixed on the magnificent vessel before them. "The Victoria Punk, huh? A fitting name to honor our dear friend, Doryunaika. She'll always be with us."

Victoria Punk is an orange ship with a skeleton-themed design. It has a large yellow dinosaur skull as its figurehead, dinosaur ribs along its underside, and two masts. The front mast had a large black sail with a flame design brandishing the Eustass Pirates' jolly roger and a smaller orange sail above it. The front mast also has a lookout and a jolly roger flag at the top. The back mast had a smaller orange sail. The deck also has a skull behind the figurehead.

(Picture of the Ship)

The Jolly Roger of the Eustass Pirates bore a distinct design that perfectly captured the essence of the crew. Split down the middle, the skull symbol held a unique duality. On the right side, the skull showcased a prominent goggle over its forehead, accompanied by a wild mane of vibrant, spiky red hair, mirroring the fierce and untamed spirit of Kid. A wicked grin adorned its lips, a reflection of his rebellious nature.

Conversely, the left side of the skull portrayed a different visage. The hair, flowing gracefully, took on a style that reflected elegance and refinement. It fell in loose, flowing strands, exuding a sense of laid-back charm. The mouth maintained a neutral expression, representing Kai's calm and level-headed demeanor amidst the chaos. Together, these distinct features formed a powerful symbol that embodied the harmonious blend of Kid's wildness and Kai's composure within the Eustass Pirates.

Heat and Wire nodded in agreement, their voices filled with reverence. "A toast to Doryunaika and the adventures that await us aboard the Victoria Punk!" Heat exclaimed, raising a flask of rum.

The crew raised their drinks, their voices uniting in a resounding cheer. "To Doryunaika and the Victoria Punk!"

With a shared resolve and the memory of their fallen friend, the crew stepped aboard their newly christened ship.
