While the four were going through their own hells in the mansion, Luffy and the rest of the Straw Hats had arrived on the island with no huge issues or delays. They looked around the canal where (Y/n) and the rest had ended up earlier, hoping to find some clues of the four and where they could be, but to no avail.
"Hey, (Y/n)! Are you in there?!"
"Luffy, why are you squeezing your head into a hole?" Robin asked the captain as the rest facepalmed.
"Why would (Y/n) be in there to begin with?" Zoro raised an eyebrow as Franky and Sanji looked at him in disbelief.
"That's the question you are asking?!"
"Who knows! Where there is a hole, there is a way, you know?" Luffy said once he pulled his head out of it. Sanji was about to say something to Luffy but froze and started smelling the air before looking in the direction of the staircase.
"Shut up! (Y/n)-chan, Nami-chan, and the others went that way!"
"How would you be so sure? And why are you sniffing the air?" Franky wondered as he and Luffy started following Sanji.
"I picked up (Y/n)-chan and Nami-chan's perfumes. They are both sweet, just like them. My two ladies are so adorable."
As Sanji cooed about the two, Luffy laughed in amusement as Franky and the other two looked at each other weirdly.
"He seems to have lost some of his self-control. Zoro, you must also agree that his behavior is weirder than usual."
"I will have to agree with that. He is acting like a dog desperate for some bones." The swordsman stared oddly at Sanji as Robin quietly looked around, hoping to find something from the four.
"Maaan! I am hungry!" Luffy pouted as his stomach started growling... very loudly, at that.
"Why is your stomach growling so much? I just gave you something to eat." Sanji was the first one to take notice of the loudness, but didn't bother turning around to look at the captain.
"Uhm, Sanji-"
"You know how Luffy is with his meals. There is never enough of them." Zoro shrugged as the said boy spoke up again.
"Guys, that wasn't my stomach. Something else is growling."
The group stopped at the captain's comments, but neither dared to look back as the growling got louder, and footsteps could be heard echoing through the canal.
"Hm?"
Robin was the first one to turn around to see the cerberus looking at them in hunger as he approached them. Franky, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji were the next to follow Robin's actions.
"What is that thing?" Luffy wondered as he gripped onto the net.
"Wow. A cerberus? We must be on the direct way to hell then."
"Aww. It's cute." Robin giggled, ignoring Sanji's comment as Franky and Zoro cracked their knuckles.
"He wanna brawl?"
"Pretty brazen."
"Hey, guys, I wonder if he is yummy." Luffy grinned after licking his lips and moved closer to the animal. Hearing his words, all three dog heads stared at Luffy in shock before quickly backing away from the approaching captain.
"Hey! Come back!! (Y/n)-chan might be hungry! You will be a good source of protein for her!"

Dr. Hogback rarely saw the master of the house as happy as he was today. While Gecko Moria usually sported his signature grin, the doctor was by now well-educated to know when the Shichibukai was actually happy and when he was just plotting something sinister. And now was one of the rare occasions to see the man happy.
"This is excellent! You brought her here quicker than expected! Although I do not appreciate how much Cindry hurt her. I don't want my future wife to be bloody because of your servant, Hogback."
The said doctor flinched as the pirate sent him a glare. As expected, the man had noticed the blood on (Y/n)'s head despite his best efforts to wipe it clean.
"I will teach Cindry-chan a lesson to treat the future missus of the house more gently."
"What was that?" The said blonde woman asked as she spawned out of nowhere behind Hogback, scaring the man in the process.
"Cindry-chan! I told you not to sneak up on me like that!"
"And I told you that I don't want to see these plates anywhere around me." The zombie-woman said as she threw one on the wall.
"Cindry-chan, I understand that you hate them, but we need those to eat!"
"Starving is better than these plates!"
Moria looked between the arguing adults before facepalming.
'The people I surround myself with.'
He then looked at the sleeping (Y/n) in his hand before his grin reappeared.
"I know that you will never act like her. You are too gentle and fragile. Let me give you a kiss-"
Just as he was about to do that, the girl unconsciously moved out of the way. Moria, confused now, looked at her sleeping figure before shrugging and attempting to kiss her again, only for her to dodge his kiss again.
Now annoyed, he attempted it a third time, only for it to happen again. His annoyance turned into concern as he stared at (Y/n).
"What the.... Hey, sweetie, are you mad at me?"
As expected, no answer came, and the man used one of his fingers to rub her head in a comforting manner.
"There there. No need to worry anymore. You will soon be the wife of a Shichibukai. All your worries will be gone in an instant. Maybe I will save our first kiss for when you wake up."
Hogback, a little uncomfortable to be thirdwheeling whatever this was, cleared his throat, catching Shichibukai's attention.
"Moria-san, I prepared the zombie that we can use to put her shadow in. If you will just get the shadow out.
"Yeah, I will do that in a minute. And the zombie is in great condition like I told you?"
Moria looked at Hogback and Cindry suspiciously as he put (Y/n) down on a table before taking a huge pair of scissors out.
"The zombie looks marvelous! It's one of the best ones I ever made, actually! Do you plan for it to fight?" Hogback asked as he watched Moria pull on (Y/n) shadow, which was trying to fight its way out of the man's hold.
"I will just keep it around. After all, I don't care much about the zombie. I just need a vessel for (Y/n)'s shadow. Without it, she will never be able to leave me. I just wanted the zombie to look worthy enough of the shadow."
Moria grinned as he separated the shadow from (Y/n)'s body with the scissors.
"How romantic..." Cindry said in a robotic voice.
"What about the rest of her crew? I need them gone and defeated from this place. After all, I can't have anyone trying to take (Y/n) away from here." Moria asked while holding tightly onto the shadow, a little annoyed with how much it tried to escape his grasp.
"Don't worry. The reindeer she came with and the other two will be completely gone soon. As for the rest of the Straw Hats, their zombies are ready and just waiting for the shadows."
"Excellent! I can toss them into the sunlight then!" Moria laughed before looking at Cindry.
"Did you prepare the dress for the wedding?"
"No."
"What?!" Moria and Hogback at the woman as she crossed her arms before looking away.
"I prepared a different one since the one you picked was way too tight, pervert."
Moria facepalmed at the woman's antics as Hogback started scolding her about her disobedience.
"Nothing in this place can go my way. Well, at least I have you here. You will make this place a lot better." The Shichibukai grinned and crossed the uncomfortable pirate's cheek when the door burst open.
"Why was I called here? I just met my wife and wanted to bring her with me!"
"Absalom, food to see you, too- Why do you have a shoe imprint on your face?"
Moria and the other three looked at him in confusion once they took note of the bruise across his face.
"Let's just say that my first bride pick was way too strong for my liking." Absalom huffed and looked away to try and hide the bruises.
'He definitely peeped on someone...' Moria, Hogback, and Cindry thought as they looked at the zombie.
"Whatever. Cindry, go dress up my bride. I want her ready as soon as possible."
