The sun had barely risen when the Heaven's Embrace lifted off the waters surrounding Thriller Bark, its majestic wings folding elegantly against the hull as it ascended through the misty morning air. The crew stirred, still rubbing sleep from their eyes, but their spirits were buoyant — they carried fresh victories and new allies into the next chapter of their journey.
Vegito stood at the helm, the familiar hum of the ship's systems blending with the gentle gusts of wind as they set course for Sabaody Archipelago, the notorious gateway to the Grand Line's most perilous stretches.
"Brace yourselves," Vegito announced, a teasing grin curling his lips. "The world is about to get even more interesting."
As they neared the sprawling mangrove forests of Sabaody, the atmosphere shifted. The salty tang of the sea mixed uneasily with the scent of exotic flowers and a faint, unsettling tension that prickled the skin.
Nami surveyed the horizon. "This place is a powder keg. Slavers, Marines, pirates — everyone's here, playing their dangerous games."
Kaulifla cracked her knuckles, eyes flashing. "Good. Means we'll have plenty to do."
Their arrival did not go unnoticed. Whispers of the Heaven's Embrace — a flying ship bristling with strength and strange companions — spread quickly among the archipelago's residents, from pirate crews to the World Nobles themselves.
The crew wasted no time, launching a raid on the slave auction houses, determined to free the oppressed and dismantle the cruel trade. With coordinated precision, they overwhelmed the slavers, their powers a blur of light and shadow.
In the midst of the chaos, Vegito's gaze hardened as he spotted two Celestial Dragons overseeing the trade. Without hesitation, he unleashed his full might, felling the corrupt nobles with a force that shook the foundations of the archipelago.
The world watched in stunned silence as the rumors of the "Flying Pirate King" began to solidify into terrifying reality.
Later, atop Marijoa, Vegito made a bold statement. With a swift, decisive strike, he devastated half the palace, sending a clear message to the World Government and its corrupt elite.
The aftermath was chaos — but the crew's bonds only grew stronger as they celebrated their audacity and unity.

The Heaven's Embrace hovered silently over the dense mangroves and intricate waterways of the Sabaody Archipelago, its figurehead—a dragon-woman carved with ancient runes—gazing solemnly at the sprawling city beneath. The city was a tangled mess of bridges, docks, and towering trees whose roots writhed beneath the water like serpents. Here, the powerful and the corrupt mingled, and every shadow whispered secrets of cruelty.
Vegito adjusted the collar of his coat, the weight of his mission heavy but welcome. His crew moved efficiently, preparing for the raid they'd planned with military precision.
"Everyone, listen up," Vegito said, his voice carrying the calm authority of a seasoned warrior. "We're not just here to fight. We're here to free those who've been forgotten. This city is a cage for innocents. We're the hammer that breaks it."
Nami, standing beside him, nodded. "The slavers are ruthless, but they've grown complacent. They won't expect a strike like this."
The night erupted into chaos.
Firelight flickered against the mangroves as the Heaven's Embrace crew struck with deadly precision. Kaulifla's flames danced like wild spirits, cutting through iron bars and silencing guards. Reiju moved through the shadows, her haki-infused blows swift and silent. Chopper's healing hands tended to the wounded slaves who began to rise with newfound hope.
Vegito's presence was a tempest of raw power. Two Celestial Dragons—icons of corruption—stood at the heart of the slave trade, their arrogance palpable as they observed the chaos with disdain.
But that disdain quickly twisted to horror.
With a burst of haki and Saiyan fury, Vegito descended upon them, lightning-fast strikes dismantling their defenses. The ground shook as their palatial guard towers cracked, sending splinters into the night sky.
The world seemed to hold its breath.
Later, as the crew regrouped on the deck, their freed companions celebrating alongside them, the true audacity of their next move became clear.
"We're going to Marijoa," Vegito announced, eyes alight with fierce determination. "It's time the World Government understood that their reign has cracks—and those cracks will only grow."
The Heaven's Embrace soared above Marijoa, its wings casting a vast shadow over the pristine palaces of the World Nobles. The attack was swift and surgical; Vegito's power carved devastation through the corrupt seat of power without mercy.
The half-ruined palace stood as a warning to all who dared wield their authority unjustly.
That night, as the crew celebrated their victory and the growing loyalty among their ranks, Vegito stood apart for a moment, staring at the stars. His heart was fierce with resolve but warmed by the family he was building—their laughter, their dreams, their trust.
In this new world, he would be a king of freedom.
