"Captain, are you sure this is a good idea? I heard there is a marine base nearby, they won't let us off..." A tall man asked a muscular man with four swords hanging from his back.
"Of course it is, now shut up. We're dirt poor, and that shitty island if full o' gold. I want it all, so, we are going to go there and make tons of money with which we can build up and begin our expedition to the grand line!" The muscular man laughed. Although he wasn't particularly bad-looking, he still sounded like a pig when he laughed.
"Y-yes captain!" The tall man immediately answered and shouted at the rest of the crew. "You heard the captain. We're gonna raid Fars Town!"
Hearing this, the crew all began cheering as they set out to work. The sails were raised, the food supplies restocked and the water refilled. Then, once they were ready, the anchored pirate ship left the small uninhabited island they had stationed themselves in.
The captain looked out from his cabin towards the horizon. He could feel the wealth already flowing into his pockets, the soft bodies of the captives they were sure to take and the prized possessions of the nobles he was going to obtain.
He licked his lips in anticipation and headed down his cabin to take out some rum, however, he was interrupted before he could do so.
The lookout shouted from his nest above, "Captain! There is an unidentified ship right in front of us. It has no flag and I can't see anyone on top of it. Its sails are also all missing!"
"A ghost ship?" The captain wondered with a frown. "Head at starboard. We're going to go check for treasures and quickly leave if we can't find any."
Obeying the captain's orders, the ship was quickly forced to change directions and head towards the 'ship', which looked more like a giant floating piece of garbage wood.
When the pirates finally flanked the ship, they launched boarding hooks and firmly anchored the two ships together. After everything was secured, the captain, the tall man, and 3 other higher-ranking pirates went into the ghost ship, armed with pistols and cutlasses.
The ship was eerily silent and empty. Holes of all shapes and size could be seen in multiple places, and there were only a very few traces of anyone ever living on the ship.
"C-captain, I don't think this is a g-good idea..." One of the men that came with the captain said, trembling in fear. "I h-heard there's a ghost ship traveling these seas, and that it will eat anyone who goes on it..."
"Hah, don't make me laugh. Ghost ships? Those things don't exist. This is merely an abandoned ship!" The captain laughed, releasing some tension he himself held.
As the 5 men searched the ship, one of them called out, excited. "Captain, there's a room here. Come take a look!"
"Oh... my..." The captain said as he looked into the room. His hands twitched and a strange smile formed on his face.
A relatively young woman who looked around her late 20's laid on the cold wooden floor, her eyes closed and her clothes all torn and destroyed.
"Rick, tie her up and bring her to the ship. If anyone touches her, I'll cut their hands off. She's beautiful enough to be easily worth 700.000 beri, and if she's a virgin, she'll be at least 1.000.000 beri" The captain said, licking his lips.
His men worked quickly, tying her hands and feet with a rope they had been carrying. Soon, she was loaded into their ship and put in the captain's cabin. The men all looked at her pervertedly, envious of their captain but not daring to overstep their boundaries.

Nonetheless, after setting the ghost ship on fire and continuing on their journey, nothing happened for the next two days. The captain decided to leave the woman alone, thinking that she must either be ill or poisoned, as she had kept sleeping through the entire ordeal. He didn't want to risk contracting some dangerous disease, so he didn't touch her.
However, around midday of the second day, the woman's eyes opened.
This woman was obviously Linda. She had been traveling without a destination for the past 6 months, and during this time, she had mainly trained in how to use her devil fruits. Now, she felt finally ready.
Originally, she was going to simply leave the ship and swim all the way to the nearest island... somehow. However, this was even better. At least, the chances of her swimming around aimlessly for months had been... canceled.
She glanced at the cuffs that had been put on her hands and feet. Apparently, her dear friends didn't have the best of intentions towards her. She appreciated their honesty, however, they would have to find something a bit tougher to keep her down.
After easily snapping the ropes and freeing herself, she kicked open the door keeping her locked. It was pulverized, and what she found behind it was a good number of pirates staring at her with surprise.
"Oi, isn't that the bitch the capt'n got?"
"Ye mate, dat's her. Look at that booty!"
"Harara, she's a tough cookie, ey?"
Linda's eyes twitched as she heard the more than rude comments from the pirates. They didn't do much other than stare at her and laugh, and this confused Linda a lot. She expected more... violent reactions?
"What's going on here!?" The captain yelled as he arrived on the scene. Seeing Linda free and standing, he smiled. "You're a tough cookie, eh? Hehe... I don't know what's your deal, but do you know what they call me around here?" The man smiled evilly.
Linda raised an eyebrow. In her mind, she had already made a decent impression of every single person on this ship.
'They're all idiots...'
"No. I never heard of you." Linda said, showing no emotion.
"Hehehe... They call me the Breaker because I break people so bad there is no coming back from me!" The man laughed. "And now, I will break you. Step back, boys. Let me show the bitch her place."
Every single pirate on the ship, around 60, was now watching the scene. They all had perverted smiles on their faces and did not seem worried at all.
The captain walked towards Linda and took out a gun and a sword. Linda simply stayed still, watching as he approached.
When he was within arms distance of Linda, he shoved his gun in her face and laughed. "A really tough cookie? I like it, I like it. I love tough cookies because they make a lot of noise when they break..."
He lowered his gun and shot her leg. The bullet made a strange sound as it failed to inflict any damage on Linda.
This was the moment the pirates realized something was wrong. Even the captain frowned, confused. He raised his gun and looked at it, checking if it had broken or something.
Seeing this, Linda shook her head and did the world a favor by pulling the trigger for him. Her hand traveled like lightning, pulling the trigger before the captain even noticed she had moved.
The pirates all looked ghostly as they stared at their dead captain's body, whose brains had been splattered.
"Honestly... I fail to understand just how stupid some humans can be. I don't even feel anything by killing this shit." Linda said, her voice cold.
"Well then... Little minions of the 'breaker'. You have two choices, break or bend. Which one will it be?" Linda laughed as she threw herself at the nearest person, and so the carnage began.
----------------------------------------
"You, give me that cloak. I need some clothes. And you, go fetch me some food. I haven't eaten good food in a decade." Linda ordered.
""Y-yes master!"" Two pirates said, trembling in terror. They were two of the 18 survivors out of the original 60 pirates.
Linda nodded as she watched the two run out of the captain's cabin, her cabin. She smiled brightly as she observed the many treasures, tools, and maps the captain held in his room. She had no idea how to use any of them, and this bothered her.
She didn't have Siry's assistance anymore. This fact struck home hard now, forcing Linda to bite her lip in order to shatter the memories that tried to rise up from her mind.
"Ren... I will accomplish your will. It may take a year, it may take ten, it may take a hundred. However, one day, I will reshape this world into something beautiful." Linda kneeled as she sent a small prayer towards her late boyfriend.
"Well... If I'm not wrong, the cabin boy said the captain wanted to raid a small island... Not a bad idea, however, it won't be enough..."
