Your POV:

"What the heck just happened ?! What are we doing up here ?!"

Buggy: I don't know !! We suddenly got picked by some stupidly huge wave, and then the ocean suddenly froze over and the ship got stuck in it !

Crocodile: Take a look down there. You'll see the answer.

Jinbe: Old man !!

Emporio: It would seem the war is already underway !

"So that explains the situation... Aokiji."

Luffy: Listen up, guys !! I have an idea, and it's gonna get us out of this !! We can't let this stop us when we've got this far ! There are only three hours left until Ace's execution !!

Buggy: WHAAAAAAT ?! Slide down this frozen wave, ship and all ?!

Luffy: It's our only chance ! First of all, we've gotta get the ship unstuck from this ice !!

Three: Are you out of your mind ?! This is a battleship !! How could we possibly move it ?!

Luffy: If we all work together, we can do it !!

Buggy: I... I suddenly have the feeling I can do this... !!

Escapees: Yeah !! We have Captain Buggy, the man who's going to rule the world, on our side !!

*Beuleubeuleubeuleu*

*Beuleubeuleubeuleu*

HQ: Calling all ships and all troops ! Objective TOTTZ ! Change formation and prepare for general strategy 3 ! Preparations are to be executed flawlessly !

Escapees: It's a marine strategy communication... I don't really get all the code-words...

HQ: Once preparations are made, we will be executing Ace before the scheduled time !

Luffy: Wha ?! WE'VE GOTTA HURRY !!

*F-TWOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Buggy: AAAAAAAGHHH !! the other way !! the other way !! We're gonna fall !!

Ace: ... Gramps...

Sengoku: What are you doing here, Garp ? You have a complaint about my strategy ?

Garp: No... Those are pirates we're up against... I have no pity for them...

Sengoku: Well, then...

Garp: Oh, be quiet ! I can at least... Stay here, can't I ?! I have no pity for these knaves... But I can't say the same for family... ! What do you expect me to do... ?! Damn you, Ace... ! Why did you and Luffy not live as I wanted you to ?!

Garp: Listen up. The two of you are going to be fine marine soldiers !

Ace: Gramps... Maybe, asking this guy to take care of us wasn't the best idea...

Sengoku: ... If you try anything at this point, I will show no mercy, even for you, Garp.

Garp: Hmph, if I meant to do anything, I would have done it long ago !

Koby: D- Did you hear that ?! Hermepp, that strategy...

Hermepp: yeah...

Koby: Executing Ace without regard for the scheduled time... if they do a thing like that... !

Hermepp: I know, but... Hm ? Something's falling... Up there...

Buggy: I TOLD YOU YOU WERE GOING OVER THE TOP !!

Crocodile: It's this idiot's blast that did it !

"While it's technically true, I don't want to hear anything from you, Croco !"

Three: Who cares whose fault it was ?! We're dead meat !! It's all solid ice down there !!

Soldiers: What in the world is that... ? Something's falling from the sky !!

Ace: ... ... ... Eh... ?

Luffy: AAAAAAAAGHHHHHH... OH ! I'M RUBBER, SO I'LL BE FINE !!

Three: That's nice for you, but what about the rest of us ?! Do something, quickly !!

Emporio: I DO NOT WISH TO DIE THIS WAY !! SOMEBODY STOP UUUUUUS !!

Buggy: I SHOULD NEVER HAVE LISTENED TO AN IDEA YOU CAME UP WITH, STRAWHAT !! DAMN IT ALL !!

"That's something you gotta learn really quick in Luffy's vicinity."

Escapees: BLEGH !! Th... the ocean !! thank god, we fell into the ocean ! Why is this the only spot not covered in ice ?! I thought we were gonna smash straight into the ice and die !!

Jinbe: Honestly, these fruit users...

Escapees: Up ! Get up on the ice ! This water's nothing compared to the water torture back in hell !

Luffy: Haa... Haa... There... !

Ace: LUFFY !!

Luffy: ACE !! I FINALLY FOUND YOU !!

Soldiers: Hey ! That can't be... Crocodile ?! No time to be dwelling on just him ! Who the hell are these guys ?!

Buggy: Gyahahahahaha !! Are you ready for me, world ?!

Ivankov: So this is a battle of the great powers ! Certainly a force to be reckoned with !!

"We're here to save you ! And we ain't gonna take no for an answer !!"

Sengoku: ... ... GARP !! IT'S YOUR DAMN FAMILY AGAIN !!

Garp: LUFFY !! Y/N !!

Soldiers: Jinbe !! Crocodile !! Even Ivankov of the revolutionary army !! And look behind them ! Those are all pirates who used to be plenty infamous themselves ! It's the escaped convicts from Impel Down !!

Mihawk: You never fail to make a scene worth witnessing... Strawhat...

Moria: SSSSSTTTTRRRRRAAAAWWWWHHHAAAAATTTT ?!

Hancock: Luffy... ! It is such a relief to see you safe... !

Koby: Look, Hermepp ! Over there !

Hermepp: Heh ?! STRAWHAT ?!

Koby: Even though I head they had been captured at Impel Down... they really are... Just incredible !!

Aokiji: That's certainly some group you've got there...

Kizaru: To think that we'd see each other again so soon...

Marco: That must be the brother and guardian Ace was talking about !

Doflamingo: Current and former Shichibukai all gathered here... ! Fufufufufu... And then, the outrageous rookies everyone's been talking about... !

Smoker: This is no time to be distracted !!

Tashigi: Rear-Admiral ! Look !!

Smoker: Yeah... The Strawhats... And Crocodile ! What kind of alliance is that ?!

Akainu: ... ... So that is him... Grandson of Garp the hero... And son of Dragon... That is one pirate who most certainly needs to be eliminated...

Sengoku: SO THIS IS YOUR ANSWER, IS IT, JINBE ?!

Jinbe: INDEED ! I RESIGN AS A SHICHIBUKAI !!

Garp: That's a screwed-up team if I ever saw one... It barely seems possible that they all share a common objective... Particularly on this battlefield...

Emporio: Hm ? Where is Croco-boy ?

"... I take my eyes off him for a second and he tries to off himself !!"

Buggy: Over there !! Why, that little... Trying to steal my glory !!

Pirates: Crocodile is after Whitebeard !! OLD MAN !!

Crocodile: It's been a while, Whitebeard !!

Crocodile: Water... of course he told you... We had an arrangement, did we not ? Why do you defend Whitebeard ?

Luffy: So this guy really is Whitebeard ! Then you're not touching him ! This is the only guy Ace really cares about !

Marco: That brother of Ace isn't half-bad...

Whitebeard: ... ... ...

Shanks: In East Blue...

Whitebeard: What manner of enemy took that left arm from you ?

Shanks: Oh, this... I bet it on a new age...

Whitebeard: ... Boy... That straw hat you wear... It bears a strong resemblance to the hat Red Hair once wore...

Luffy: Oh, hey ! You know Shanks, huh ? i'm borrowing this hat from him !

Ace: Check it out, old man ! This kid is my brother !!

Whitebeard: Are you here to save your brother ?

Luffy: That's right !

Whitebeard: I hope you understand who you're up against. You will simply be throwing your life away !

Luffy: Shut up !! It's not your job to decide that !! I've heard about you... You want to be the Pirate King, right ?! Well, the one who's going to be the pirate king is me !!

All: 'Whaaaaaaaaaaa ?!'

Whitebeard: ... ... Well, I'll be damned... You'd better not get in my way, greenhorn !!

Luffy: I'll do this however I damn well want !! I'm saving Ace myself !!

Buggy/Ivankov: 'He's competing with Whitebeard... !!'

"So that's Gear 3,5... Instead of his bones, he inflates his balls..."

Kizaru: ... Dear me... May I assume that all of these intruders may be executed, Sengoku ?

Sengoku: Naturally !

Whitebeard: they mean to execute Ace ahead of schedule ?! Are you certain that is what you heard ?!

Luffy: They said they'd so it when they get some kind of preparations ready, but the rest was full of codes, so we didn't really get it. Since we both want to save Ace, I figure you should at least know that much !

Whitebeard: I see... This is indeed valuable information. I must thank you.

Luffy: Nah, don't worry about that !

All: How the heck is he talking so casually with Whitebeard ?! What's with his confidence ?!'

"That's just Luffy."

Luffy: I'm coming for you, Ace ! HAAAAAAHHHHHHHH !!

Whitebeard: So they do not feel that they need to adhere to their promised schedule for a mere pirate... These "preparations" would appear to be the key to this situation...

Luffy: HAAAAAAHHHHHHH !!

Marco: Pops ! We intercepted a message to the marine troops indicating that Ace's execution time is to be moved forward !

Whitebeard: yes, so I hear... But let us stay calm. Our intercepting this information and acting in haste is doubtless part of their plan. Accidentally allowing a key strategy to be overheard by the enemy... Is not a mistake that man would ever make !

Whitebeard: ... Don't you think you've got places to be ? What are you even looking at ?

"... ... This ain't no beard. It's a moustache."

Whitebeard: I know. What of it ?

"... ... Based. I'm off."

Kizaru: if we don't capture you, the Tenryûbito will never let us hear the end of it, you know... Strawhat Luffy...

Escapees: I- IT'S ADMIRAL KIZARU !! Strawhat Luffy is done for !!

Ivankov: DEATH WINK !!

Kizaru: Hmmmm...

Buggy: WAAAAAAAAAGHHHHH !! NOOOOO !! I WANT TO GO HOOOOOOME !!

Escapees: Hm ? Captain Buggy !! Did you just say what I thought you said... ?! "I want to send him crying home" ?! Are you serious ?!

Buggy: Ehh ?!

Escapees: That's the man who was on the legendary crew for you ! He doesn't even fear Admiral Kizaru !!

Three: Are you so drunk on hope it's affecting your ears ?!

Luffy: That was close ! Thanks, Iva-Chan !!

Ivankov: I consider it my duty to see to it that do not die !!

*PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII*

Ivankov: You again, Kizaru ?! No... That's not him... ! KUMA !!

Luffy: Ahh ! that's the guy who looks like a bear... the one who sent all of us flying !!

"GIGANT... HAMMER !!"

*BTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Ivankov: haa... That was close...

"Isn't it good to have someone to watch your back, Iva ?"

Ivankov: Haa... Bartholomew Kuma... ! 'How horrible ! Certainly, he has his duty to uphold as a member of the Shichibukai... But still, to fire a laser like that at an old friend like me... !'

'Maybe I should... No, it's still to early... And I'd need to stop the dendenmushi from broadcasting the scene...'

Ace: STAY BACK !! LUFFY !! Y/N !! I shouldn't have to tell you this !! You're pirates, just like me !! We've both sailed the ocean as our hearts guided us !! I HAVE MY OWN ADVENTURE TO LIVE !! I HAVE MY OWN FRIENDS !! I DON'T REMEMBER ASKING EITHER OF YOU TO INTERFERE !! Do you really believe I'm going to forgive you for that ?! This is humiliating !! GET OUT OF HERE !! WHY DID YOU COME ?!!

Ace: 'Please, you two... Don't let me drag you into this too... This is my problem, not yours... !'

Luffy: 'CAUSE I'M YOUR BROTHER !! I DON'T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT THOSE STUPID PIRATE RULES !!

Ace: You idiot, Luffy...

Soldiers: Did he just say "Brother" ?! Then... he's Roger's son as well... ?! Both of Ace's parents died when he was born ! He couldn't possibly have a younger brother !!

Moria: ATTACK, MY ZOMBIES !!

Moria: SEAWATER ?! What... ?!

Jinbe: those zombies of yours... I seem to recall salt was their weakness, right ?

Luffy: Jinbe !!

Sengoku: What do you think you are doing allowing a single rookie to shift the flow of battle ?! That man is another future dangerous element !! Not only was he raised together with Ace as an adoptive brother, he is also... THE FLESH AND BLOOD SON OF THE REVOLUTIONARY DRAGON !!

All: WHAAAAAAT ?!

Buggy: THE SON OF DRAGON ?!

Mihawk: ... At this point, nothing surprises me anymore...

Hancock: 'You could be the son of demons for all I care... I still...~'

Doflamingo: I see... So that's how he got Ivankov on his side ! It makes sense now !

Jinbe: Dragon's son... I see...

Smoker: This explains what happened at Loguetown...

Reporter: Calling HQ... Calling HQ ! Reporting from the Sabaody Archipelago !! We have huge news !! Th... The whole world has to hear this !!

Garp: I care not... There is no longer any need to hide it. Luffy has already gained such power and infamy that such labels may as well mean nothing... !

Luffy: ACE !! I don't care what you say !! I'm going to save you even if it kills me !!

Ace: Gh... !

Whitebeard: ... Marco... Don't you dare let that boy die.

Marco: Roger that, pops.
