"Are we there yet?" Lucy lazily asks, lying down in the cabin where Roya is driving the ship.
"We are almost there, you can already see the island, and stop being lazy, it has only been 3 days since we left Foosha Village."
"Finally, who are we going to recruit this time, hopefully its a cook."
"Not yet, we will probably find one in the Baratie most likely."
"How do you know that?"
"It's where some excellent chefs are, so hopefully we will find one willing to join my crew."
"Ok, ok, why do you wear glasses as well?"
"I need them to see, idiot."
"Well, look who's the one who needs glasses to see."
"... Absolute bozo, lets just hurry up and try to recruit some people and restock because of your eating habits, Lucy."
"I need to eat, it's good for my growth, that's what my grandma said."
"You eat tons and tons of food, and you aren't even growing at all."
"I'm taller than you, you need to grow first, and food just tastes too nice."
"Fuck you, Lucy, fuck you."
The Star Pirates finally park onto Shimotsuki Village's port, with Makino and Dadan going to restock while Lucy and Roya head to Shimotsuki Dojo.
Around you are:
Shimotsuki Kuina
Shimotsuki Koushira (Won't join)
Who can be revived/reversed:
Shimotsuki Kuina
'I guess I'm only going to recruit Kuina, but wasn't she only 11 when she died, so how am I going to know how powerful she will be when she didn't even reach her prime? Hopefully she will have a similar talent to Zoro, one of the main characters.'
"Who do you want to recruit here, a child?"
"No... I'm going to revive somebody, and its going to be here due to her mother being here."
"...My bad."
"Relax, I think her mother would be more excited to see her daughter alive, rather than staying dead."
"Hopefully... is she strong?"
"I hope she has the potential to be a really strong swordswoman, but the more the merrier I guess."
"Its more fun if we have a larger crew, but not too large because I won't be able to remember all their names."
"I hope not, unless I'm going to be troubled mentally and physically."
"How are you going to be troubled?"
"Too many women on the same ship as me, thats why."
"So, you don't like being around too much women?"
"Of course I don't, I'm about to hit the peak years of puberty."
"What's puberty?"
"... I'll tell you later."
Roya and Lucy finally head into the dojo to see nobody here.
"Is the mom the sensei here?"
"What do you think, am I here to find a navigator?"
"Are we recruiting a navigator?? But I thought we are recruiting a swordswoman, and how do you know where her mom is? And how do you know where they died?"
"...When I enter an island, I can see who I can recruit, some of their history and how they died, mostly."
"Oh, alright understan-"
"Who are you, the dojo is closed right now, and you don't look like children." Koushira comes out of nowhere and starts to ask them to leave.
"Hang on a second, I'm here looking for Shimotsuki Kuina, do you have any idea where she is?"
".... She's dead"
"Well, do you want the good news or the good news?"
"What good news is there about my daughter being dead!?"
"I can revive her, so, show me where her grave is, I don't want to revive her here in a dojo where others can potentially see."
"But its clos-"
"Shut up Lucy"
Koushira starts to think about Roya's answer, utterly perplexed whether he's here to play a joke, or is actually being serious.
"That... can't be true, your a man, and that power is unheard of."
"Well, let me show you I'm not lying, unless you want me to revive her now."
"Do it here then."
"*sighs* fine then, I'll do it here."
You have initiated the revival of Shimotsuki Kuina.
You have decided to sacrifice your left thumbnail, do you accept?
'I do.'
This is your first time reviving someone, so I'll tell you what you need to do. They are bound to be with you and join your crew, until you achieve your dream, do you still accept?(Different to high-tier revives.)
'Of course I still do.'
A bright light pops up in the dojo, surprising both Lucy and Koushira.
"No... I-it can't be true, is that you...Kuina?"
A tall lady with dark blue hair steps out of the light, revealing herself to be an older version of Shimotsuki Kuina.
"Hello, Mom"
"*sobbing* Kuina, your alive again!!! Thank goodness! I missed you so much! *continues to sob."Koushira runs up and hugs Kuina, talking to her ecstatically, while Roya drags out Lucy before saying.
"Talk to eachother for 3 days, but then she will have to come with me."
"Why?! You can't just take her like you know her! I've been without her for 12 years, so she isn't going anywhere!"
"Sadly for you, if i leave this island without her, she is going to just die again, no matter what, so she has to come with me."
"....W-well, just give us 3 days to catch up."
"Ye got it, my name is Roya as well, remember me when I pop up in the newspaper, got it?"
"Got it....thank you Roya for reviving my daughter."
"It is just for my benefit, so don't hold any source of guilt and don't think about repaying me back, and Kuina, remember to meet me at the port in 3 days time, alright?"
"Got it, Roya, I'll make sure to be there."
Finally, Roya and Lucy head back to the ship to relax, while Kuina and Koushira catch up with eachother.
*3 days later*
"So, today that Kuina girl is going to officially join our crew?" Dadan says, looking at Roya who is sitting down on a chair on deck.
"Yep, and our next destination will most likely be Shells Town, oh I guess she did arrive here, early even."
"I wouldn't go back on my word, I did say I was going to to come and join you, but I didn't expect you to be a pirate." Kuina says, looking at everyone aboard the ship.
"Well, would you like to be the first swordswoman of the Star Pirates?"
"First?"
"There might be more swordswomans joining our crew in the future, so make sure your the strongest out of them all."
"Of course, I will be the strongest swordswomen in the world."
"You better hold onto that dream, and its time to head onto our next destination, Shells Town!"
