They ended up waiting for an entire day.
Neither of the two battleships dared head straight to Punk Hazard, so they found a random deserted island to dock at temporarily.
After all, the New World's weather was absurd, rain, snow, hail, even if the ironclad ships could handle it, the soldiers certainly couldn't.
"Hey! You idiots, can you not eat right here?"
"Don't you know I can't eat right now? Watch it, or I'll smash you all with one swing!"
"Hahaha! We'll eat right here! It's not like I'm hungry anyway, you dumb hamr, you're killing with laughter!"
They'd docked to rest, but thanks to Borsalino's instigation, everyone grabbed a bowl of delicious food and plopped down right next to Shiki to feast.
Yamakaji had initially felt bad about it, but when everyone else agreed, he couldn't be the odd one out.
So the scene now looked like this:
Hamr, transford into a hamr, was pinning down Shiki.
anwhile, Borsalino, Lance, Shirley, Hina, Momonga, and Yamakaji sat around them, happily digging in.
Even though Hamr was in hamr form, he was still human.
The aroma alone made him instantly ravenous.
But he couldn't revert to human form yet, which infuriated him so much that he imdiately started yelling at them.
The Golden Lion, however, just laughed and loudly mocked him back.
So a man and a hamr started cursing each other out.
Borsalino and the rest beca the perfect bystanders, or rather, "bystander eaters."
Eating while listening to Hamr and the Golden Lion bicker, honestly, it had a certain charm to it.
"Lance! Where the hell is that old bastard Garp? I can't stand this anymore! Get this blonde bastard out of my sight!"
"He should be here soon. Just hang in there, let finish this bowl first, then you can keep yelling…"
Hamr: '… Listen to this! Does this sound like human speech to you??'
Another hour passed.
Finally, the Dog-Head Battleship appeared on the horizon.
"Hahahaha! Hamr brat! I heard you caught that bastard Shiki? Where is he? Let see!"
The voice arrived before the man did.
A second later, two figures dropped from the sky onto the Warhamr's deck.
It was none other than Garp and his aide, Bogard.
The two glanced at the massive hole in the Warhamr's deck, then jumped straight down without a second thought.
"Ho? Golden Lion! So you do have days like this, huh?"
"Huh? What're you lot doing? Eating? Old man's hungry too, get a bowl!"
"Hey, Bogard, want so too?"
Bogard: "…"
Hamr: "…"
Shiki: "…"
The sa thought popped up in all three minds at once: 'Should we just beat him up?!'
"Lance, you brat, what're you staring at, hurry up and get so food! Chop chop!"
"But… Vice Admiral Garp, the Golden Lion-"
"Golden what? Lion who? Isn't that bastard pinned under a hamr nice and tight? Go on, I just finished a scrap with Roger and I'm starving."
"…Alright, fine."
Lance couldn't say no to Garp, so he got up to fetch food.
The others burst out laughing, Hamr nearly exploded.
"Seriously, Garp, you old fart, why are you eating?! Get this blonde bastard off already, I'm still holding him down with my Devil Fruit power!"
"Hahahaha! Dumb Garp, still the sa clown as ever. Ptooey!"
In that mont, Hamr and the Golden Lion were perfectly united, both despised Garp.
Hamr hated how unreliable he was.
The Shiki just plain hated this powerful nuisance.
"Hahahaha! Shiki, you've really fallen, huh? Can't even beat Hamr, hahahaha!"
"Roger and Whitebeard are leagues stronger than you!"
And what did the Golden Lion care about most? His reputation and strength!
Garp's jab hit him right in the pride.
"Damn you, Garp! What makes you think Roger's better than ? Back at the Battle of Edd, if that brat hadn't interfered, Roger would be dead by my blade!"
"And that damn Whitebeard, always going on about his 'sons,' embarrassing real pirates everywhere!"
"If you've got the guts, tell this brat to get off , let's see if I don't cut you up!"
"Hamr, you bastard, get off ! I'm gonna slice up this IDIOT!"
The Shiki swung his arms furiously, but Hamr pinned him down so tight he couldn't move an inch, let alone get up to fight Garp.
Frustration burned in Shiki's chest.
Once, he'd been a top fighter under Rocks, with all three types of Haki plus the Float-Float Fruit, an absolute powerhouse.
Now he was in this pathetic state, it was enough to make him explode.
"Garp, hurry up and eat! When you're done, dump this blonde freak in the sea! Forget prison, just sink him!"
In Hamr's mind, sinking him was the safest option. The rightful source is novel-fire
But Garp just shook his head.
"Sengoku already gave orders, we're taking Shiki to Impel Down. You know this, too, Hamr. If he dies, that Devil Fruit just reincarnates sowhere else."
'Damn it! That old fool Sengoku, still so wishy-washy!'
'Who cares if the fruit respawns, just solve the problem in front of you now!'
Hamr ntally jotted Sengoku's na down in his grudge book. Too much trouble!
In the end, the Shiki was taken away by Garp.
To make sure he didn't resist, Garp tied him up like a dumpling with a massive chain, which Hamr was pretty sure ca straight off Garp's giant iron ball.
"Hahaha! Hamr, Borsalino, I'm off!"
"Oh, right, Hamr, lend your ship's cook for a few days, yeah? His food's pretty tasty!"
A tic-tac-toe grid practically popped up on Hamr's forehead.
"SCRAM! Not a chance in hell!"
Back in human form now, Hamr stuffed his face, shooting murderous looks at Borsalino and the others, Garp included!
'How dare they gorge themselves while I was stuck in hamr mode?'
It pissed him off to no end.
He had to eat it all back!
As he watched Garp's ship sail off, Borsalino let out a satisfied burp.
"Hamr-kun, I'll just hitch a ride on your ship back, okay? I'm gonna nap, wake when we reach Punk Hazard~"
Without giving Hamr a chance to object, he shimred in golden light and vanished into the Warhamr's cabin.
"…That damned monkey, doesn't treat himself like a guest at all."
"Fine… I'll let it slide this ti. He did back us up, after all."
Already lying down, Borsalino curled into a comfy position and drifted off with a faint smile.
