A quick note before I get to the Halfway Broken release! I'm...a little confused and bewildered that there was absolutely zero commentary on the Misfit System release on the 1st. With a 70% victory in the poll for people wanting more of it, I was expecting some people to provide feedback. As it is, the utter and complete silence screams to me that no one is actually interested in that work, at all, which is making me backpedal on the idea of of writing more of it beyond this month. Feedback matters, particularly for such new stories. So if you actually like that story, please take the time to actually leave a comment or two rather than leaving me utterly blind and groping in the dark, please?

Now, with that out of the way, it's time for the release you're actually here for! This set of chapters didn't quite reach the conflicts at Amazon Lily and Germa yet, since there is a bit of time between the rescue crew setting out and actually arriving...as well as setup to still do for the Amazon Lily side. That setup gets done in this release and, just as importantly, we see on of the other little side-quests I planned out for Starfall. A neat little secondary town that I think people will enjoy!

Vivi and Sanji are two of the only remaining crew who still need some upgrades before heading to the New World, and while Sanji is obviously heading toward a place where he can get that...Vivi's has been an ongoing process that their little side-quest just adds too. Thanks, whoever it was that brought up Ivy from Soul Caliber in relation to Vivi's Urumi. I tried to find the comment again and am very annoyed I can't locate it to credit whoever gave me the idea -_-. Both Ivy and Nilah from League of Legends inspired bits of the upgrade Luffy is working on for Vivi in these chapters, after all! There is, as you might have guessed from the images, also a short lemon.

Enjoy the latest release of Halfway Broken, everyone! As usual, the new content is attached to this post, and I'll be adding authors notes in the comments. Master Files will not be updated until the second release of this for the month on the 20th...

Chapter 135: A/N 1: I hope you enjoyed Sinners Refuge :-p! I thought Starfall would be a interesting place to run into a few of the old Roger Pirates crew who haven't been seen in canon. We don't know a LOT about them, but I used what little we do know to try fleshing them out. A/N 2: To be honest, the ???s on Luffy's Hat were always something of failsafe in case Oda pulled a Nika again and made the Hat more important than just a symbol for Luffy. Things have gone far enough in the main canon story since then that such seems less likely, so I decided to give at least one of the 'Mystery' features of the Hat an actual purpose. As its been shown a couple of times in canon that it's possible to 'tie' bursts of Haki up for later use (into a literal knot in one case), I figured it was a logical tool for Roger to have come up with, then passed onto Shanks when he was nearing his end and decided he no longer needed it. A/N 3: Robin's Devil Fruit is seriously tempting to write tons of lemons with. Seriously, that might be one of the most smut-capable powers of all time. Yet, since I try to only include around 2k in lemons for every 20k or so of story (likely actually averaging less, since they didn't start until late in the East Blue arc), I haven't done that much with it. I figured having a little fun with her powers, which doubled as a good way to show how far along she is in training her Devil Fruit, was a good bit of additional filler for Sinner's Refuge.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Chapter 136: A/N 1: Much like subtly showing Robin's advancement through the lemon, I used the crossing of the Red Line to show one aspect of Vivi's powers that I haven't spent much time on. Specifically, that she's been training hard to expand the SIZE of the Air Doors she had create, with the hope of eventually being able to instantly move even the Discovery around. Though, as shown later when Hina is thinking over Ship Sizes, the Discovery is BIG. The various additional powers it has gained has caused the Discovery of Storms to expand, and I wanted to highlight just how MUCH by giving some size comparisons to ships actually seen within the series. A/N 2: I figured, if anyone is aware where the Road Poneglyphs are currently at, it would be some of the remaining the Roger Pirates. As events have drifted from canon, this provided a way to clue the Strawhats in to places they need to look for them. Not really important NOW, but something I wanted to put in place. Luffy blind-lucked his way into finding most of them, in canon, and that doesn't really track with this version of him or the crew. A/N 3: As I mentioned in the main post, Luffy's upgrade for Vivi's weapon is based on Ivy and Nilah. The one downside switching weapons had for her was it taking some synergy away from using her Air Doors with her Peacock Slashers, which could dart in and out of open portals. The ability to EXTEND the weapons fixed that. Also, if you haven't caught on, Starstone was inspired by the Sunstone 'Painters' used on Elbaph. It doesn't function quite the same way, being more about push and pull like the tides. But it WAS inspired by an in-universe material :-). Along with a real work type of stone that was used by vikings to find the sun through clouds. Though, because of the island theme, it allows seeing STARS through clouds instead. Making it a useful additional aid for navigation, even somewhere like the Grand Line. A/N 4: Uh-oh! Amazon Lily is under threat...which some of you totally called as being a thing that would happen at more-or-less the same time as the Germa Rescue :-p. Still, I wonder if any of you connected the dots between Hancock's idle observation that cross-training with Fishman Island might also be worth looking into? Meaning they are going to have some hands on deck from all members of their Alliance. Those poor Marines don't know just what they are running face-first into...

Dame I almost feel sorry for the Marines attacking Amazon lily well, I feel sorry for the lower rank. Who are just following the orders that they need to not really. For sakazuki, I'm curious if any world government agents, will be at the fight and if any of them would be high enough rank to realize, oh shit Nika.

Anareth

Well, this is unlikely to go well for the World Government. Mind you, I'm somewhat skeptical that the fiction of the "Gorgon's Curse" will survive this battle either. Assuming that the Marines actually get within sight of the shore basically all of the Kuja will see a dozen or more Devil fruits duking it out. Though I suppose its possible that the smarter half of the Kuja are already basically humoring the sisters out of respect.

AK0700

Very exciting setup for the next chapters! Seems like the Marines are starting to re-establish themselves now

Chris7A

Don’t feel bad. They do the bidding of the celestial dragons when it’s time to commit genocide. They aren’t good people. Good people would refuse to do it and join the revolution. Like dragon did.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Hmm, Yamato is with the Germa Rescue Team, so it's far more likely any observers with Kuzan and the other two admirals Garp sent to the North Blue will be the ones to panic, assuming any high ranking enough to realize what they are seeing are there. Which...honestly isn't likely. That's a pretty tightly held secret. Imu might very well feel her going active with the Awakened Fruit, though...

Novus's Fanfiction Works

*waggles hand in a so-so motion* Technically, the Kuja have already seen a bunch of other Devil Fruits in use due to the Joint Training with the Strawhats and how many Fruits the crew have. That said, some confusion has entered the chat, as it were, because the Kuna ALSO saw other weird shit from the crew. Kaya's spiritual powers, Pagaya's power armor, Usopp's ammo tricks (of which he has a lot more nasty ones in this story), and even Zoro/Kuina's styles which are spirit powered. Suffice it to say that the Kuja currently have a lot of question marks floating between their ears and know that there are more than one set of unusual power sources out there. Given the nature of Kuma and the Pacifista in particular among the Marines attacking, they might not be able to sort out the sheer variety of options well enough to be certain that the 'Gorgon's Curse' is a story.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Yep. Garp's status as a Hero to the people let them recruit back up the lower ranks even more easily than canon, despite everything. Though, in exchange, he's been a bit pickier about his higher ranked replacements. In so much as he was allowed to be. Not losing Kuzan makes a difference there, though.

Fireblade974

Oh yeah I completely forgot that oh well still looking forward to all the chaos that this will bring.

Daemonioros

Yeah I am really curious to the reaction when they learn that the Amazon Lily attack was never intended to succeed. As well as how the other part of the crew is going to manage to sneak onto the Genma kingdom (getting off should be easy with Vivi). Really liked the Lemon in this one as well.

Chris7A

Yes! One death isn’t enough for sakazuki kill him again! Three admirals is a big fight, let’s get Reiju out fo there. What were the admirals that Garp recruited? I guess Kuzan, Borsalino and Fujitora?

Anareth

I'd say that Hancock's sisters are the most likley to blow the secret, since animal transformation is a fairly specific power exclusive to devil fruits. Pell showing up to the fight probably won't help matters.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

He sent Issho and Aramaki to back up Kuzan dealing with Germa, with Kuzan in charge. Borsalino is busy dealing with the revolutionaries in the West Blue.

DALucifer

About misfit system, you seem to have a lurker problem. Best way to get Lurkers to interact are polls and such instead of the comments section

Camille

Thanks for the update! I'm looking forward to both the Germa rescue and Amazon Lily's defence, it's going to be a great way to show off the Strawhat crew and the Alliance's massive improvements! Everything is starting to come together as the crew's entrance in the New World is approaching, which is exciting!

KnightWriterRLK

Oooohhhh boy, I can't wait to read what happens. The Alliance will be showing their fangs. I'm hoping Admiral Sakazuki finally bites the bullet. Or maybe his defeat will give Amazon Lily another island or two to use for their own needs.

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Huh, you know, I hadn't quite processed the fact that his Devil Fruit could end up with new islands forming? Going to have to consider that possibility...

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Yep! That's a lot of the idea. I want to show just where they are, likely leading into an early (albeit not THAT much) entry into the New World, as they realize they've kinda overdone it a bit...

Novus's Fanfiction Works

Eh. The problem with that is that the story is too early to really make polls about it. Thankfully, a lot of people chimed in after I made mention of wanting feedback here :-).

DALucifer

Devious. I will admit I almost missed the message due to it being on one of the only fics of yours I don't really keep up with, but I saw misfit mentioned as I was scrolling and wanted to see more details

Orchamus

Robin loves to lewd her Nami❤️

The Foreign Traveler

More of Roger's crew huh? Nice to see more of them. Not surprised a place like Sinner's Refuge (If I'm rememebring the name right) actually exists.
