| abstract | - Jango: Hector, Jessica? Hector: Captain? Senshi: ... I won't mention the apparent age difference. Jessica: I take offence at that. Senshi: Ah sorry. I didn't realise... Jessica: Yeah. It's amazing how handy it is to look old sometimes. So what can I do for you captain? Jango, Hector, Senshi, and Malachi: Huh? Jessica: Oh wait... That tricorn is different. You wouldn't have changed that. So you're not my captain ???: No. I am. Jango: We've met. Water Seven. about three years ago. You are Dimitri Marcellus. Dimitri: .... You saved me from drowning didn't you? Rob lucci dropped me in the water. Jango: I owed you one for what happened in Sabaody before that. Dimitri: The vice admirals? Jango: Yes. They thought you were me. Anyway, we need to ask Ms Capricorn a favour. A friend of mine needs a new outfit. Jessica: Hello there. Jessica: This girl is a slave, am i right? Senshi: She was. I'm in the process of taking her home. she needs a new gown. Jessica: I promise, I will not hurt you. hold your arms out and let me measure you. Jessica: Maybe something silver. some white flowers to bring out her hair. Jessica: And who will be paying for thi- Good god. What happenned to you? Senshi: Oh-no. He must have been injured during those fights. He needs medical attention. Senshi: John, you are going to have to trust me. I'm gonna take you to my ship where Ishi will patch you up. Okay? Jango: .... ah. Yeah that looks pretty bad. I should have guessed this would happen when they didn't reverse porperly. Dimitri: .... Can I just ask one thing? Jango: Go ahead. I'm not in much danger of bleeding to death. In fact I'd be more than a little worried about Senshi given that she was wounded before this fight, and then I went and beat her up, but- Never mind. The question being? Dimitri: Right then. What did you do to attract five vice admirals?! Jango: Helped someone in need. You see- Jango: Ouch. What the heck did you do, Senshi? Even Kizaru didn't hit that hard... Jane Rose: He's right.... This doesen't make any sense! Why aren't his wounds healing? Not even haki can jam that.. Senshi: It can when your mad enough to activate your very powerful version of Haoshoku Haki. Jango: Just how powerful are you? Senshi: No time for that. You need medical attention. Burakku: That guy just tried to kill you. You aren't taking him on the ship- Senshi: Guys we don't have time for this. If we hesitate, he could die. Burakku: You didn't let us finish. Valkerie: Only if he relinquishes his weapons and allows us to put these (holds up a pair of Seastone shackles) on him will we let him on our ship. Senshi: Guys, he isn't our enemy. He needs help. Burakku: We're just looking out for you. Valkerie: This guy is dangerous. He killed a World Noble. Senshi: Guys- Jane Rose: Captain?! Jango: Seems a fair deal in the end. Malachi: No it's not. She tried to kill you. She gave you that wound- what? Malachi: You healed it?! Jango: Of course not. It's charged up with her haki. Remember, this is what Barry did. but- Hector: Who? You sure you ain't delirious captain? Malachi: Of course not Hector. Don't you remember thriller bark? We were trying to work out that trick for ages afterwards weren't we captain? Jango: Yeah. I cracked it eventually. didn't think I'd see it anyone who wasn't using energy steroids, but this is just a variant on the same think. This wound has been scorched and charged with Senshi's Haoshoku haki on a large scale. It won't heal in any way realted to devil fruit powers at all. I'm using time rifts in my blood to minimise blood loss, but if I stop doing that at all now I'll go anaemic. And that would be really badly timed. in short I can't keep this up forever, so I will be needing a doctor. like I said, It's a fair deal. Malachi: Sally? Jango: Where is she? Malachi: I'm not sure, but- Jango: Then It's a fair deal. Jane Rose: ................... If there is a trick here, I will kill all of you. Then I will kill every single one of your relatives. Malachi: ...! Thaa-ats a bit severe... Jane Rose: ... Then we don't need to worry about trickery. They wouldn't risk it. Jango: ... We all need to calm down. They aren't trying to trick us Shiroka: Master cares about her friends. Dark Angel is her friend now. She won't let him die. Senshi: I'm afraid i can't talk my friends out of this. Is there anything i could do to put your mind at ease? Jango: Apart from stop worrying about me dying? That's kinda impossible. It's only one wound. Dimitri: .... Look even I'd be worried if I had a wound that was losing that much blood. Jango: But the emphasis here is that it's not the wound that's killing me but the blood loss. and even that is only a small thing. I mean what about your brother? he doesen't have a healing ability at all, and this wouldn't stop him. Senshi: ...... but it is actually killing you, right? Surely there's some precaution we should take Jango: ....... If I die, take the handcuffs off me then run for your life. Valkerie: ...Why would we need to run if you were dead? Jango: ..... So much for tact... but.. look I have a failsafe for under those circumstances. Only it's a bit heavy on collateral damage. It's not likely to be an issue, but there's no sense in risking it. Malachi: .... fine then. Just be aware that I was in range of your ship earlier today, so if there is any trickery, I'll see and come after you. No pressure. Senshi: Sorry about the indignity. I run faster like this.
