Both, the whole saltwater thing is a myth.
"That is easier said than done lass. Xehanort knows to be weary of even allies and likely won't take kindly to being watched. But you also drive a very hard bargain. I shall accept as long as you are aware that our duties come first in the even of any conflict between the two interests, but I hope that is something that you would have already guessed." Mixt said as he tossed the half finished apple overboard and took a couple steps forward towards Phisoxa to shake her hand.
"Well then out with it lass" Mixt said, evidently more aware than he let on earlier as he now stood on the ship's bow and took a bite out of an apple.
"Admittedly that wasn't my plan, but I knew the wait wouldn't take long." Mixt said as stood up and brushed himself off. Mixt then snapped his fingers to damage the ground with alchemy and hopefully destroy any traps lying nearby.
"And careful with that vessel. We don't need any more treasure being stored in Davey Jones' Locker" Mixt said, oblivious to the actual going ons
"I don't see why we can't." Mixt commented lazily "Certainly the easier way about this." 'Come on Aia, you know me better than to think I'm doing this randomly. Think' he thought as she and Seth talked.
pooooooooooke
"Aw, there be hardly a soul on board" Mixt said disappointed as he sank back down into his chair. "Wake me when it is o'er boys" he said as he kicked his feet up and pulled the hat down to cover his eyes.
Mixt took a seat "We can wait" He wasn't sure if Seth and Aia would follow, or if the Phantom would budge before it took too long. Luckly the Phantom seemed none too patient recently.
"Well then stop yer yammerin and striiiiiiiike!" Mixt shouted as he got to his feet and emphasized the end with a shake of his fist in the air.
"You specifically put me out of commission and Aia is a peaceful goddess, not much of a fighter. It really just means wasting more of your precious time to bring out a victor. Besides you already sowed this has no plan. This trap had no objective until just a few seconds ago" Mixt stated to Sophie
"So who is up for a bit 'o plunderin' matees?" Mixt said in a surprisingly good pirate voice.
"I see you make up the rules as you go along. Obviously not smart enough to do it properly the first time. Or is it that you are too scared to actually fight?" Mixt taunted. He didn't want to seperate from Seth or Aia that easily and since they could leave he needed to pull Phantom in, if he would take the bait.
Mixt leaned back in a chair. The ocean breeze was nice but the pirate hat and eyepatch were a bit ridiculous. Though better that than what the world's magic gave some of the others. "You! Hoist the sails" "But I don't have hands" Sure enough the man had two peg arms and legs. But Mixt simply gave him a piratey growl. "SIR!" The man said as he made a rushed attempt at a salute but just smacked himself in the face with a peg before running off.
"Got locked up in a barrier. No alchemy, no keyblades, no dark powers. Phantom over here is pretty indecisive. That about sums it up" Mixt said, acting nonchalant while he leaned against the barrier.
"So what exactly can you be bothered to do?"
"Speed it up or slow it down, the relations don't change so it really change anything. So go ahead and speed it all up to your liking"
"Timely? At the rate things are going now I would generously give this two days, sink or swim. I really doubt we will make it more than 24 hours right now"
"Is that what all this is about? Take it. I don't care. I hate to break it to you, but you are pretty insignificant right now unless you want to help out."
"If I remember correctly you just like destroying things. So if you hold that much power right now why are we having this little chat? You need me for something or is killing me off not as easy as you say?"
