One Piece: Grand Battle 2 Novels & Stories

Ting! I heard the faint sound of clashing metal, and could smell some blood. It made my stomach churn as I almost felt like I was back at the bandit camp, seeing Lance get riddled by the arrows. A tear began to fall down my face as I hit myself with my spare hand. Shake out of it! You can not be thinking of him for now, you have to focus. I must survive for him. I began to slow down, as I got closer to the sound of the fighting. Peaking round the corner, I saw a massive open hall. It had six pillars in total, three on each side. Reaching up to the roof seemingly holding all of the rock up.

My little warrior. Tonight we travel to Bastian's realm for cards. I've missed Ashrac and know his parents keep him away to give me time with my bride. The little red hellion has burrowed into my heart. Unlike a bride, he will live forever. I will never suffer the pain of losing him. I've given my bride a new set of leathers to wear tonight. They are a little less revealing with an added gauzy material that splits on the sides and enables her to fight if needed. She's in her bathing chamber changing while I impatiently wait.

"If we don't seize the opportunity to destroy the Grandiuno Sacred Land while it's weak, things will only become more challenging in the future!" Baldwin glanced at Grenn with a fleeting murderous gaze. After a brief silence, he burst into hearty laughter and said, "Why are you in such a rush? You should know better than anyone that good things cannot be rushed. The Grandiuno Sacred Land has just formed an alliance with Greatflare, and they have Southsky as their rear guard. Annihilating them instantly is hardly practical."

Dull blades shone with blue light. We followed. At the surface, the battle had already begun. Grey creatures poured from the upper ocean. Serpent soldiers climbed from the red water below. The living packs fought between them across the exposed seabed. Grandmother stood on the ruined tower with the Tide Crown raised. Her face tightened when she saw the army rising behind us. “Toren.” The commander stopped. For one moment, the battlefield disappeared from his expression. “You remember me.” Grandmother lowered the crown. “I remember all of you.”

Valerie inquires quietly, her gaze drawn to the garments' loveliness. “O-hohoho! That's such a wonderful compliment from the Empress,” Sebastian exclaimed, making Valerie chuckle awkwardly as she approached the first gown. She sees the first gown, which is rose gold in color and features a tight bodice with a low-cut neckline, huge ribbon bows down the center front, wide panniers, and is lavishly adorned in lace, ribbon, and flowers. She also considers the second gown, which is yellow and has the same detail as the first but has a lace puff, and the third gown, which is light blue and has the same detail as the first but has a loose lace puff that makes it look like an off-shoulder.

A normal night. But normal never lasts. Crow slid into the chair beside me, gray streaking his beard, eyes sharp as ever. He was one of the older ones, a man who’d seen enough wars—both on foreign soil and right here in these walls—to know when something was shifting. “She’s still here,” he said, voice low. “Yeah.” “You plan on explaining that to the boys?” I took a drag from the cigarette, exhaled slow. “No explanation needed.” Crow’s chuckle was dry. “That’s not how this place works. You know that.”

With the air of the Luna of the pack, Lyana haughtily told Dexter to take out his toys from his bag and share them with Cayden. "Dexter, give the toys Theron bought to Cayden." But Dexter clutched the two identical pony figurines tightly in his arms and began wailing aggrievedly, rolling on the floor in a tantrum. "No! Daddy Theron bought these for me!" I looked at Cayden. Usually, he would've burst into tears by now. But this time, he calmly told Lyana, "Let Dexter keep them all. I don't want them." Guilt and sorrow flooded my chest.
