The fight has begun. The Straw Hats charged at their enemies with reckless abandon while Mad Treasure and his 3 cronies stayed behind, letting their lesser underlings deal with the 12 pirates.
"Hmm…" Treasure hummed. "Now that I get a good look at them…it's easy to see that these guys are the Straw Hat Pirates who are causing such a ruckus in the New World." He then grinned. "This ought to be interesting."
Zoro was the first to confront his foes, drawing his swords as he cut them down with little effort. One tried to shoot him with a bazooka, but he sliced the barrel when he pulled the trigger, causing it to explode! Then, he turned to face another enemy, this one more fearful of Zoro's strength than others, and he cut him down before he could so much as put up a fight!
Then came Usopp, who struck down his enemies using his Black Kabuto like a bo staff before he took aim at one of them.
"Certain Death: Green Star!" he shouted. "DEVIL!"
PYEW! BOOM! A giant Flytrap appeared, devouring Treasure's goons.
Then, Aika and Kumi were seen, trying to get up to the upper deck, but several more enemy pirates appeared, glowering down at them while brandishing their weapons in a threatening manner. However, before they could attack, WHAM! Sanji appeared, kicking one of them in the jaw!
"Sanji!" Aika cheered.
"Ganging up on a little girl?" Sanji asked. "That's no way to treat a LADY!"
WHAM! THWACK! BAM! The cook kicked the underlings away, sending several of them crashing into the water below!
"X…FANG!" Blizzard shouted as he made an air-compressed bite in the shape of an X, slashing his opponents!
"Treinte Fleur!" Robin exclaimed as several arms sprouted on the shoulders of her foes. "CLUTCH!"
KRAK-KRAK-KRAAAK! With one quick twist, she snapped their necks!
"RAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" Franky roared as he swung his pickaxe, slamming away his foes!
Olga stared in utter disbelief at what she was seeing. This small crew of 12 was defeating this much larger crew of 50 or more like they were nothing!
"You guys…you really are strong, aren't you?!" she asked.
"I know!" Aika exclaimed. "That's what I said when I first met them!"
"I shall protect you, even it costs me my life," Brook began as he drew Soul Solid. "Ah! But I'm already dead!"
"Luffy was the one who took out the infamous Doflamingo," Chopper spoke up.
"Huh?" Olga muttered. "Who's Doflamingo?"
"You mean you don't know?" Nami asked. "Well, just watch us, then. You'll see that it's a safe bet to go on an adventure with us."
As soon as she said this, more enemies charged at the Weakling Trio.
"Pardon me," Nami said before she ran towards them, holding her Sorcery Clima-Tact. "Black Ball…RAIUN ROD!"
KRRRZZZZZZTT! BABOOM! Using a chain of Weather Balls, Nami hit Treasure's crew with a long thunderbolt, causing them to get electrocuted!
"Horn POINT!" Chopper shouted as he rammed more foes with his giant antlers.
"Yohohohoho!" Brook chortled as he ran passed his batch of enemies before slowing down into a walk. As he did, he sheathed his sword. "Song of Scratches…BLIZZARD SLICE!"
KRRIIIINK! Once the skeleton sheathed his blade, the goons screamed as gashes appeared on their chests and were soon frozen!
Finally…it was Luffy's turn.
"Gum-Gum GATLING~!" he roared as he let loose with a flurry of rapid-fire punches, and with just that move alone, the fight was over!
"YAHOO!" Aika cheered. "Big Brother, you're so amazing!"
"Jararara…!" Treasure snickered. "Very interesting…the stronger the enemy, the more exciting the treasure hunt is! Jararararara! …Little girl."
Olga looked up at Treasure as he called her.
"You should know that cheating is bad," he said. "I'll go along with your treasure hunt to the very end!"
"You can't have Olga!" Aika shouted. "She's going treasure hunting with us!"
"Hey! Who asked you?!" Olga questioned. "Quit butting in!" She then glared at Treasure. "Besides…I hate classless men like you."
"I'm the only one," Treasure started, "who gets to decide that!"
With that, he threw a chain at Olga, which wrapped around her body like a python, causing her to cry out in pain as it tightened! However, before Treasure could pull onto his ship, Aika suddenly grabbed the other end of the chain!
"No!" Aika shouted. "Olga!"
"Aika, what are you doing?!" Kumi questioned.
"Rrrgh…!" Aika grunted as she felt herself getting pulled along, too, but then, Luffy, Chopper, Sanji, and Nami all grabbed a hold of her and began to pull Olga back onto the Sunny. It soon turned into a deadly game of tug-of-war.
"Straw Hat!" Treasure shouted. "I'll be taking to the lead to the Pure Gold, if you don't mind!"
"No way!" Luffy spat. "That's not up to you to decide, you bastard!"
"Yeah! Olga's staying with us!" Aika added.
As they pulled, the chain around Olga started tightening even more!
"Hey, guys! Stop it!" Usopp cried.
"Luffy, stop pulling on her!" Blizzard shouted. "You'll sever her spine!"
But they didn't listen. They just continued to pull Olga, trying to get her out of Treasure's grasp. As they did, Olga could feel her bones beginning to pop from the pressure and the air leave her body.
"STOP IT!" she shouted. "YOU'RE CHOKING ME!"
"All right, that's it!" Zoro exclaimed. "Obviously, you guys don't know how to handle a kid!"
SLASH! He soon cut the chain, causing Treasure and Zoro's fellow Straw Hats to release Olga. However, because they ended up stumbling back from the force, they ended up sending the blonde-haired girl flying over the starboard-side railing! In doing so, she accidentally dropped her ring…which shined a brilliant, golden light!
"Jarararara!" Treasure laughed. "I knew she had it!"
"Is that…the Pure Gold?!" Robin questioned.
THWUMP! Thankfully, Elizabeth managed to catch Olga before she could fall.
"Olga!" Aika cried as she ran to her side. "Are you okay?!"
"…Why did you keep pulling me?!" Olga questioned. "Didn't you hear my bones about to break?!"
"Oh, no!" Nami cried as she and Luffy watched the ring sail over the railing…and into the water with a small plop!
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Nami screamed before she slumped sadly against the railing while Luffy gently patted her back.
"I'm sorry, Nami," he said.
"The treasure…that can buy the whole world…!" Nami whimpered. "It's gone…all gone…!"
"Get over yourself!" Blizzard shouted.
"She obviously doesn't care about the whole 'people falling into ruin thing'," Kumi added.
"Well, there you have it!" Zoro shouted. "The treasure sank into the sea, so your little treasure hunt is over! No why don't you bastards just pack up and go home, already?!"
"Tch!" Treasure sucked his teeth in irritation.

Meanwhile, in the ocean, Olga's ring sank further and further towards the bottom. As it did, it gave off its brilliant golden glow…and soon after, a giant shadow suddenly appeared.
XXX
"Are you all right, Olga?" Robin asked.
"Am I all right?!" Olga repeated. "I damn near choked to death and…wait…where's my ring?!"
"Uh…it fell into the sea," Aika answered.
"WHAT?!" Olga questioned.
XXX
In the water…a giant eyeball spotted the ring and swam closer towards it.
XXX
"Oh, no…!" Olga whispered with dread. "Lord Bonbori's gonna show up!"
"Lord Potpourri?" Luffy repeated.
"BONBORI!" Olga shouted. "LORD BONBORI!"
"Who's Lord Bonbori?!" Usopp asked.
RRRRRRMMMMMMMBB! The Sunny and Treasure's ship started shaking from that deep rumble, forcing everyone to grab onto something.
"W-what was that?" Aika asked.
"Luffy…was that your stomach rumbling?" Blizzard inquired, hopefully.
"No, it wasn't," Luffy answered, holding onto the mast.
"Okay, people," Sanji said. "If there's one thing experience has taught us, it's that when there's a rumbling sound and it's not coming from Luffy's stomach, THAT'S when we worry!"
THOOM! Both ships suddenly lurched up, being tossed around by violent waves…and not long after, something huge emerged from the ocean's depths!
"AAAAAAHH!" Chopper screamed as he almost got tossed overboard, but Blizzard soon grabbed him before he could!
"Gotcha, little buddy!" Blizzard exclaimed.
"Thanks, Blizzard!" Chopper replied.
"Hey!" Nami called as she held Aika and Kumi close to her. "What's that, coming out of the water?!"
It is soon revealed to be…a giant anglerfish, leaping up into the air…chasing Olga's ring! Soon after it caught it in its gigantic mouth, it landed with a humungous splash, causing the two pirate ships to nearly capsize!
"WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAA!" Luffy exclaimed.
"Isn't that thing a little too big?!" Franky questioned.
"Yes, it is!" Brook cried.
"SCARY~!" Chopper screamed as he wrapped his tiny hooves around Blizzard's neck, causing him to turn blue.
"Chopper…I can't breathe…!" Blizzard gagged.
"What is that?!" Aika asked.
"It's a giant anglerfish," said Olga. "We call him Lord Bonbori!"
GRROOOOOOOOOAAAR! Bonbori roared as he opened his massive jaws…and started sucking up the water, taking the Sunny and Treasure's ship with it!
"GAAAAAAAAHH!" Usopp screamed. "IT'S TRYING TO EAT US!"
"WE'RE GONNA DIE~!" Chopper shrieked.
"YOHOHOOOOOOOOO!" Brook hollered in fright.
Anubis whimpered as he saw Bonbori, but then Treasure whipped him with his chains.
"Quit sniveling, you stupid hyena!" he ordered.
"My boss!" said Psycho P. "We should get outta here!"
"…I guess you're right," said Treasure.
On the Sunny, Nami and Franky quickly made their way to the helm.
"Franky, quick!" Nami cried. "Use a Coup de Burst and get us outta here!"
"Got it!" Franky replied as everyone gathered around him and he pulled the lever. "Hang on, tight guys! Time for the emergency escape!"
As he said this, the Sunny's aft cannon began to glow, preparing to blast off!
"Coup de…" Franky started, but then.
"HOLD IT!" Olga shouted, causing the process to stop. "…We can't run away! Not now!"
"WHAT?!" Usopp questioned.
"Oh, man, she's trying to get us eaten!" Kumi cried. "You see, Aika?! I told you she was bad news!"
A pause…but then Olga glanced at Luffy who blinked at her.
"…You," the girl said. "Do you really wanna look for the Pure Gold?"
"Yeah," Luffy answered, flashing his signature confident grin, "because it sounds like a lot of fun."
"Well," Olga started, giving him her mischievous grin, "I'll let you in on something: the phantom island, Alchemi…is located inside the belly on Lord Bonbori!"
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHH?!" the Straw Hats questioned.
"Inside its stomach, huh?" Zoro asked as he stood on top of the Crow's Nest, glaring at Bonbori's gaping maw…before he smirked.
"But wait!" Nami exclaimed. "I thought the Pure Gold sank to the bottom of the sea!"
"No, that was only a tiny piece of it," Olga said. "There's a huge chunk of it inside Lord Bonbori's belly!"
"A…HUGE CHUNK?!" Nami repeated, her eyes sparkling.
"Not again…!" Kumi whimpered.
"We've lost her," Blizzard muttered.
"Franky, bring us about 180 degrees!" Nami ordered.
"You got it!" Franky answered as he spun the wheel.
"HOLD ON A MINUTE!" Usopp cried. "ARE YOU CRAZY?!"
"If you want that huge chunk of Pure Gold," Olga said, "go straight into the mouth and right down into Lord Bonbori's gullet!"
"Got it!" Luffy answered.
"Yay!" Aika cheered. "We're going into a giant fish's tummy!"
"NO 'YAY'!" Usopp shouted as the Sunny sailed towards the mouth of Bonbori. "WE'LL DIE IF WE GO IN THERE! DON'T YOU GET IT?!"
On Treasure's ship, the Treasure Pirates happened to see the Straw Hats go in, too.
"My boss!" Psycho P called. "What do we do?!"
"…Sail in after them," Treasure smirked.
On the Sunny, the Straw Hats are preparing to sail inside Bonbori's stomach.
"This looks like fun," Zoro smirked.
"Well, it's not like we any other choice," Sanji answered, taking a drag of his cigarette and blowing out a puff of smoke.
"YAHOO~!" Luffy cheered as he stood on the Sunny's figurehead. "Now this is an adventure~!"
"Yeah~!" Aika cheered.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Brook, Usopp, Chopper, and Kumi howled in fright.
"Pure Gold, Pure Gold, PURE GOLD!" Nami chanted with Berry signs in her eyes.
Before too long, the two ships ended up inside Bonbori's mouth…which soon closed shut!
