Back from canon update & hiatus [video]

[smokinghunter]

Geez, I've got such a headache. Anyone know how long it's been? Or where the hell the chibi brat in a straw hat is now?

[Smoker's outside of the pokecenter to get a smoke, and all his pokemon are practically clinging on him. It has been since about Christmas after all. Even his gyarados is practically on top of him, though he seems pretty nonplussed about it.]

What month is it anyway? Hey. Anyone who's returned home, what's the longest anyone's gone and come back?

Tsk... I need a drink

[It should also be noted he has sunglasses, a cool new scar over his eye, and his hair isn't spiky anymore! How sad. And <user name="justicereigns" is still my icon and comment account! Sorry for the delay, all.]

Sounds like you were busy over there.

[ WHY LUFFY WHY. ]

Around the exit of Goldenrod. I told him to stay close to you a few days ago. He might have gone to the forest or he's chasing some bugs maybe.

[justicereigns]

Very. Can't say I mind it though.

Tsk... sounds like something that brat would do. All right don't worry, I'll catch up to him.

[forhishappiness]

Someday I want to hear your story, if you don't mind.

I trust you will. Please tell me when you find him.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

It's a long one.

Will do Ur. [Salutes.]

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

I have time.

Thanks, good luck.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

Got the time now? I'll tell you as I go.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

Yes, I do. If you still want to, I'm fine to listen.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

Heh. Now I'm not sure where to start.

G5 has a reputation as full of problems, and it definitely held up its end of that bargain. [Packing Luffy a bento.]

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

I remember some small things that Sanji told me once, but we never spoke about it too much.

[ She makes a pause so she can keep listening to him. ]

[justicereigns]

Well, the New World itself is pretty extreme. There's lightning rain, invisible cliffs, dragons, krakens, things you can't find in the rest of the world.

But it's where Straw-Hat and his crew are headed so that's where I have to be.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

Sounds pretty intense and something he would do. Will you check up on them?

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

Of course.

They're already in the New World. Heading to Punk Hazard.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

What do they want to find there?

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

One Piece.

Well... eventually. I don't think they intentionally went to Punk Hazard, there's not supposed to be anything there, and it's a wasteland after Akainu and Aokiji had their duel there. Although they did get an S.O.S. call so they must be looking for whoever called in their help.

[forhishappiness]

I guess it is a matter of time to see how this will end, right?

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

They have a very long way to go, even if they escape by some miracle. This is just the start of the New World, there are still four pirate emperors, Fleet Admiral Sakazuki, and the three admirals in the way. Not to mention all the natural hazards of the New World.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

It's Luffy and his Nakama we are talking about.. They will overcome any obstacle in their way.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

We'll see.

But I don't doubt that.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

Thanks for the catch up.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

[Waves a hand.]

It's nothing. Has everything around here been quiet?

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

What was the last thing you remember?

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

Christmas basically.

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

Well, some wild pokemons started to sing songs around and make everyone feel... extremely happy.

[ video ]

[justicereigns]

"Happy?"

[ video ]

[forhishappiness]

Like, so happy that I would have even wear a skirt.

[ THAT KIND OF HAPPY. ]
