15 15: Hunting A Tiger! Edited

On the way back, they captured and killed another danpa and Haruno, with the owl, said: "Come home quickly, the soup is about to be ready~ I'll need to go back because Snowy is tired." Ace, Sabo, and Luffy then asked: "Snowy?" an angry voice came from the portal saying: "The Owl!" Ace and the other two made an 'oh...' sound while black lines were forming on their foreheads. The three had the same thought: "His naming sense is terrible..." The Owl flew away and Haruno finally disabled the [Shared Vision]. Haruno was currently cooking a danpa that Luffy, Ace, and Sabo caught near their base. He used a little salt, pepper, and other spices to cover the strong flavor of the bear-like meat. After around twenty minutes, the three hunters arrived at home without the second danpa they should have caught.

Then, 'confused', Haruno asked: "Eh? Where is the second danpa? Luffy... You didn't eat the whole danpa on the way... Right?" Luffy shouted: "I didn't!" Ace and Sabo chuckled for some time before Ace explained: "It fell in the river." Haruno then smiled and said: "Oh... Then there will be less meat and you won't be able to repeat~" Ace, Luffy, and Sabo: "Eh!!!?? Such injustice!" Haruno laughed and that night, they ate danpa's soup with a bowl of rice. When it was time to sleep, Sabo said: "But... If someone stole my first hunt, I would be very angry too." Ace looked at Sabo who was behind himself and said: "But...to fight with that tiger..." Haruno smiled and said: "It sounds like you, Ace!" Ace looked at Haruno, who was near Luffy and said: "Don't bother." 

The four lied in a + shape, Ace and Sabo on the right and left side while Luffy and Haruno were respectively the 'north' and 'south' side. Luffy chuckled before using the blanket to cover his whole body. He then started to laugh. Ace and Sabo looked at him strangely before Ace asked: "Why are you laughing?" Sabo seriously said: "laughter doesn't fill your belly." Haruno, a bit stunned by the comment considering their eating volume, asked: "Are you seriously still hungry...?" the three of them shouted: "Yeah!!!" then Luffy said: "I decided! Ace! Sabo! Haru! Come with me to my s.h.i.+p, right? Say yes!" then Sabo looked at Luffy with a confused expression and asked: "So, out of nowhere?" Ace then said: "We decided to leave this talk to the future..." after Ace said that, Luffy said: "But, it would be the best if we got to continue together, and... you would need my help, right?" Haruno, dazed, simply asked: "You are the one who would need help, right?" Ace and Sabo said in unison: "Yes." Luffy shouted: "No! I will help you!" Ace smiled and looked at Sabo and Haruno before saying: "You can go with me on my s.h.i.+p." Instantly, Sabo and Luffy answered: "No! On my s.h.i.+p!" Haruno smiled and said: "Then, this subject is closed for now!"

Luffy ignored what Haruno said and asked: "No way?" Ace: "Yes way." Luffy then looked at his side, where Sabo was and called his name intrigued: "Sabo?" Sabo looked at Luffy too and said: "I'll work for no one, no talk." Luffy then looked at Haruno and asked: "Haru? You would come with me... Right?" Haruno smiled and just answered: "Go sleep." Luffy continued: "Ah! Come with me! It will be fun! Ah! I know! What about this? The one who beats that big tiger will be the captain!" Ace then asked: "That tiger? Really?" Sabo looked at Luffy and said: "Ah... Your chances of being captain are rather small..." Luffy added: "No! None of us are on his level!" Sabo and Ace said: "Good Idea!" Luffy: "Yes! Let's go!" Sabo and Ace: "Yes!" Haruno angrily shouted: "Okay! Now please sleep!" 

The next morning, Ace, Luffy, and Sabo left the base early. While Haruno was following them, he said: "I'm not really interested in being the captain, so I'll just save you if something happens." What did he do to accomplish just that? He opened three tiny portals on Luffy's, Ace's and Sabo's forehead. He then added: "If something happens, I'll know and will teleport you here." This was a new technique that Haruno was working on. He used his portals for many things, to see, talk, or hear from inhuman distances. Luffy, Ace, and Sabo caught three big fishes to use as bait to attract the tiger. They walked towards the direction where they hunted danpas. When Ace asked: "Are you ready?" Sabo answered: "Yes!" Luffy looked at the fishes on their backs and said: "It was troublesome to fish them... What a waste..." Sabo said: "Don't complain! We fished them to use as bait." 

From the forest, a roar came. Sabo looked at the general direction of the disturbance before warning his brothers: "Eh? Here he comes!" Luffy angrily said: "What a glutton! He won't have my prey again!" They stared for a few seconds before another, and closer, a roar came, Ace then seriously said: "He's here." from the frozen mist of winter, a huge figure slowly approached them. A burst of wind blew away the mist and it finally appeared! A bear...

Sabo sadly said: "Ah!? It's a bear." Haruno, from their forehead portal, said: "It's just a bear? I thought those roars were from the tiger..." Luffy said: "It's not who we wanted... Get out of here!" Ace stopped him: "Wait... He seems to be as strong as the tiger. We won't defeat the tiger if we can't even defeat him." The bear roared at the challenge as Sabo continued: "I got it! He will be a perfect training exercise."
