One Piece - Halfway Broken 75-76 (Patreon)

Oh, dear sweat glorious pancakes, am I seriously glad you guys and gals chose the option to have the Strawhats watch the events of Marineford. Even just having them view the battle itself, with fewer interjections than I originally intended at that, took nearly 6,000 words! If we'd gone with the other method, just the battle would have chewed through the entire month's 15,000 words.

As is, I stretched the usual size of the 1st of the month update up to over 8,250 words in order to cover Luffy waking up, a little bit of a surprise that's relevant to the image (pure AI generation of my own 'making'), and the viewing of the battle. It doesn't cover the reactions in the aftermath yet, give us a look into the other side's heads, or any of the other bits that now need doing.

This is a rare instance I'm going to specifically state you should probably read the Authors notes for at least chapter Chapter 75 after you read it, as I'm fairly sure many of you will have questions. The most prominent of those will be answered there.

Otherwise, the update is as usual! The new chapters are here in various formats, and the pinned post will get new master files with the whole fic shortly. Though I will likely do the comments first this time. Enjoy the story, folks!
