Where there were two Marine ships docked, people were cleaning ships, doing business and conversing. This is a natural everyday occurrence for one of the busiest islands in East Blue. A famous or "infamous" city due to a sizable bounty originating from this island. By one of the Marine ships, two individuals exited the ship. They cut quite the odd duo as a large, muscular man, and another man with the ears of a dog were talking. After their small conversation ended, dog ears saluted the larger man.

Karma watched his superior walk off to report to the Marines stationed on this island. His job was to watch the ship, which he did in silence. His nose took in the salty smell emanating from the ocean and the air. The seas were calm enough to lull him into a peaceful slumber.

His second pair of ears twitched as a private walked up and saluted him. "What is it?" The Marine who looked like a newbie seemed almost hesitant.

"Permission to question sir?" Karma shook his head in an almost exasperated manner.

"You don't need permission to ask me anything. What's got you befuddled?" To be honest, Karma's a bit confused as well. His superior didn't tell him the purpose of this trip. Judging by his superior's solemn countenance he seemed to have an idea that he didn't share with him.

"Well... Why are we stopping here?" There it was. The inquiry that the Lieutenant expected came out. He's not really sure on how he should answer him, so he responded to his inquiry with a dull tone.

"Hm. Vice-Admiral Haramitsu will most likely brief us when he returns. In other words, I don't know any more than you." The private nodded at this response, saluted, and returned to the ship. "Wonder if he got sacked with cleaning duty," he muttered in a wistful tone to himself. 

Half of his focus was on the ship and the other half was reminiscing about his initial decision to join the marines. It was then he sensed a vigorous aura walking closer to the ship. It was the familiar aura of his superior. Karma saluted the Vice-Admiral once he came within 2 meters.

"Sir." He had to crane his head upwards to look him in the eyes.

"I'm calling a meeting. Gather all the Marines." Karma acquiesced as a proper subordinate should. 

"Understood." The two of them both walked into the ship, both their coats billowing in the wind. Karma gathered everyone to the front deck and prepared to listen to what Vice-Admiral Haramitsu had to say.
