Chapter 55 - falling ships, monkeys, and crickets (not all of them are falling)
When Bigstar arrives, the large hawk lands on the yard of the mast, a few paces from Kinoko. Immediately, Kinoko spreads out her wings with a loud shriek; and Babystar immediately screeches right back, tail up straight and hostile.
For a moment, Nami wondered if she needed to go stop that-- then Bigstar the hawk
swatted
them both like a frustrated parent having enough of this shit, and the two smaller animals tumble right off in a mess of feathers and startled shouts and wrangled animal limbs.
While Kinoko immediately spun right back and regained her airborne vertigo, Babystar barely avoids tearing a hole in the sails, before he 's caught between the cloth that oddly cushioned his fall enough for him to leap onto the rigging, grabbing on for balance.
