Author's Note: Hey guys, so here with a new chapter. I didn't update in so long because I honestly didn't feel like writing because every time I tried, I couldn't think of what to write. Even now, I'm not so confident in this chapter, but I hope to get better, but don't expect much. With that,

Enjoy!

Chapter 3: Showing Results! Kraken Attacks!

As soon as they prepared to fight, the ship hit the Thousand Sunny in the side, shaking the whole ship a little, but since it was made out of Adam's wood, the strongest wood in the world, it didn't do much damage.

It also seemed that the crew wasn't affected at all by the shaking of the ship and were still in the same position they were in before the Thousand Sunny was hit.

Caribou smirked to himself, seeing that the soap bubble covering both ships were close enough that he and his crew could easily walk over to the other ship.

He turned his head around and yelled out,

"Good job, Sea Cow! Keep it up!"

Nami, when he heard Caribou mention Sea cow, started to think about Mohmoo.

'Could that Sea Cow be…?'

Nami shook her head and brought her attention back to Caribou and his crew.

'It can't be him because this is all the way in the Grand Line. It must be a coincidence.'

Coribou, Caribou's brother, looks over at the ship and, seeing the the bubbles are connected perfectly, yells out to his brother,

"Brother, the bubbles are perfectly connected!"

Caribou chuckles evilly to himself and turns to his crew.

"Alright, everyone! Attack!"

His crew cheered out loud 'Aye!' and they all jump on to the Thousand Sunny.

His smirk grows as he looks at the Straw Hat Crew, who were still prepared to fight, and yells to his crew,

"Let's slaughter them all!"

His crew cheered some more and the Straw Hats tense up.

Caribou sees this and chuckles, but then his attention is turned to Nami and Robin and he suddenly gained a dark thought.

"Actually, let's slaughter all the men and leave the girls alive for some entertainment."

He then laughs out loud evilly as his crew join in.

Nami and Robin shudder at his words and all the guys, even Chopper, grew disgusted scowls on their faces.

Sanji, having a great admiration for women, was about to run and attack Caribou until he felt a firm grip on his shoulder that made him wince slightly.

Turning around, he saw that it was Luffy, who had his hat overshadow his eyes.

"Oi, Luffy! Why the hell did you stop-"

He stopped in the middle of his sentence because he saw the look in Luffy's eyes and shuddered.

Luffy's eyes showed nothing but rage and the inevitable pain he was going to bring upon Caribou.

"Sanji, I will handle this. I know what you are thinking, but don't worry. He is going to regret saying those words."

Sanji shuddered and nodded his head slowly as he relaxed and backed away, knowing not to get in Luffy's way when he gets serious.

"Alright, I leave it to you, Captain."

The rest of the crew also relaxed and backed away as they stared at Luffy's back in awe, not used to seeing this kind of behavior from him, unless it was a really strong opponent, which Caribou was not.

Nami and Robin, along with feeling awe, were blushing at how protective Luffy seemed of them.

'He's really grown up in those 2 years.'

Luffy slowly walked towards Caribou and his crew as he grit his teeth.

'How dare this bastard think he can rape Nami and Robin! People like him are disgusting! I'll show him what happens to those who think they can hurt my friends!'

Caribou chuckled as he watched everyone besides Luffy back down and Luffy approach him.

"Look at that, men. Their captain thinks he can take us all down. Show him our strength!"

His men, which was about 40 of them, cheered and rushed towards Luffy.

Luffy stopped walking and watched Caribou's men rush towards him.

He narrowed his eyes and thought,

'His men aren't even worth using my Conqueror's Haki.'

He brought his right arm up and grabbed his staff.

He fully removed it from his back and twirled it around until he finally set it under his right armpit with his left hand facing the approaching men.

Once the men were close enough, Luffy quickly went on the offensive and spun the Bo staff around, striking 10 of them in the face, sending them flying back to their ship, which really showed the amount of physical strength Luffy had.

Luffy wasn't finished as he continued to slaughter Caribou's crew with his Bo staff and sent them all flying back to their ship.

The rest of the Straw Hats were in awe, or, in Zoro, Sanji, and Robin's case, impressed with Luffy's skill with the Bo staff. Heck, Brook, Chopper, and Usopp were so impressed that their eyes had stars in them as they cheered out loud for Luffy.

Luffy, after finishing the last of Caribou's men, put his Bo staff back in it's resting place and crossed his arms, staring at Caribou and Coribou with bored eyes.

"Is that all you got because if it is, then this will be over even faster than I thought."

Caribou grit his teeth at Luffy's words and was sweating nervously.

'He took down all of my men except my brother with such ease. Even though I'm a Logia, I don't think I could even do that. What kind of monster is he?!'

He was brought out of his thought as he heard his brother roar in rage.

"How dare you harm our men! I'll make you pay!"

Caribou's eyes widened and he tried to stop his brother, but Coribou was already rushing towards Luffy.

Coribou aimed his gatling gun at Luffy and yelled out,

"Take this!"

Coribou then pressed his right index finger on the trigger and several bullets shot at Luffy.

Luffy watched the bullets approach him with bored eyes, not even using Observation Haki to sense where they would be, and thought,

'Even thought I could just let those bullets hit me and bounce back at them, I'll just show them how far in strength they are compared to me. Also, it's a perfect way to show the others how strong I've gotten.'

Luffy flexed all his muscles and whispered lowly,

"Tekkai."

The bullets came into contact with his body, but it didn't pierce his body like Caribou and Coribou expected. Instead, the bullets were crushed and fell off his body harmlessly.

Based on the looks of the other straw hats, Caribou came to the conclusion that they also didn't expect that to happen.

This made Caribou, along with his brother Coribou, stare at Luffy with fear.

'How can a human be this strong?! Is he even human?!'

Ironic coming from a person who wouldn't even be considered human with his logia powers.

Meanwhile with the Straw Hats, they were all, except Brook, thinking the exact same thing when they saw what Luffy did.

'Did Luffy just perform the same move as those guys from the Marines?'

Luffy, deciding that it was time to end this, narrowed his eyes and uncrossed his arms. He then said,

"Soru."

He vanished from their sight and reappeared next to Coribou with his right arm pulled back.

He sent it forward and once it struck Coribou's face, Coribou was sent flying back to the ship, impacting the mast.

Just as he coated his left leg with Armament Haki to kick Caribou, he was interrupted by a roar.

Both he and Caribou looked towards the roar and saw a gigantic Sea Cow.

Caribou grinned as he thought that Luffy would be terrified, but when he looked at his face, he was scared and shocked to see Luffy still have the same bored face he had before.

"Aren't you that Sea Cow that I punched 2 years ago?"

The Sea Cow stopped roaring and when he stared at Luffy's form for a second, the Sea Cow's eyes widened and teared up before it swam away scared, dragging Caribou's ship with his crew away.

Caribou collapsed to the floor as his eyes widened and his jaw fell to the floor in disbelief, watching in disbelief at Mohmoo swimming away with his brother and crew.

Hearing the sound of knuckles cracking, he swallowed nervously and looked behind him to see Luffy glaring down at him while cracking his knuckles as the others joined him.

He whimpered as he asked,

"Mercy?"

A couple minutes later

After beating the shit out of Caribou, they tied him up with some rope and put some Sea stone cuffs on him, making sure he didn't try to do anything.

Once they were done with that, the crew just relaxed as they did their own thing.

Sanji tried asking if Nami and Robin were alright, but ended up being launched away with a major nosebleed once his eyes landed on their figure, annoying the hell out of Usopp and worrying Chopper.

Zoro was staring at the fishes that swam by, wondering if how much fish he could catch.

Brook was shivering, saying that it was getting cold as he could feel it in his skin, which made Chopper say that he didn't have skin, causing Brook to be depressed that he couldn't say his joke, causing Luffy, who was off to the side, to chuckle.

Franky started to go on to an explanation as to why that happened and Nami followed it up by explaining how the currents worked.

Zoro, Chopper, Usopp, and Brook repeated some of the words she said, but ended up failing to understand, pissing off Nami as Robin and Luffy giggled/chuckled in amusement.

Luffy's eyes suddenly narrowed in concentration as he was wondering something about Caribou's ship.

He stopped leaning against the mast he was resting on and approached the tied and beaten up Caribou.

Once he was standing in front of him, Luffy said,

"Oi."

Caribou tensed and looked up at Luffy, fearfully.

"Y-y-yes?"

"Where did you find that cow and why were you having it drag your ship?"

Caribou was wondering why would Luffy care about where he found the sea cow, but decided to answer anyway unless he wanted to get hurt more than he already was.

"Well, I just found that sea cow roaming around these waters and decided to tame it, which is the answer as to why I had it. Its common knowledge around these parts to tame a sea creature and have it drag your ship to travel faster to Fishman Island."

Luffy made a 'hum' sound as he gained a thoughtful look on his face before he walked away with a smirk as he said,

"Interesting."

Caribou shivered at the tone in which Luffy said his words and didn't even want to know what he was thinking.

Luffy stopped smirking as he heard a sound that sounded like rushing water and saw his crew at the front of the ship looking at something in awe.

Wondering what it was, Luffy ran up to the front like his crew and smiled at the scene.

The scene in front of him was an underwater waterfall.

The crew stared at the waterfall in admiration and made several comments about it.

Usopp looked further down the waterfall and practically shrieked as he saw nothing but pitch black.

This in turn made Nami nervous and ask if it was safe riding the current, but Franky assured her that the ship was made out of the strongest wood so they would be safe.

Luffy just smirked in excitement and yelled out,

"Forward!"

Caribou, who was forgotten for a bit due to the sight of the underwater waterfall, stared down at the ocean from the sides of the Thousand Sunny with fearful eyes as he saw a glowing yellow eye.

'I thought that was only a legend! If that thing down there is truly the same monster from the legends, then this ship will have no hope of surviving and I will die!'

Wanting to keep living, Caribou quickly shouted out a warning about a monster just under the waterfall, scaring Chopper and Brook.

While Usopp, who temporarily forgot that he could use Observation Haki to sense living creatures, tried reassuring Chopper and Brook that there was no monster, Luffy stared down at the underwater waterfall with excitement.

'Looks like I found a sea creature to tame!'

Suddenly, a humongous yellow tentacle came into view of everyone besides Usopp.

When everyone made a noise of surprise, Usopp slowly turned around and shrieked as he finally saw what everyone else was seeing.

"KRAKEN!"

True to his words, a gigantic yellow octopus was seen just under their ship, destroying several ships with it's tentacles easily.

Brook, Chopper, and Usopp panicked and started running around, screaming that they were going to die.

As they did that, Franky commented how it was waiting there for ships to come so it could destroy them.

Caribou was somehow able to run up the stairs with Sea stone cuffs and started to yell that he didn't want to die.

Luffy glared at him and shouted,

"Shut up!"

Caribou, of course, listened and looked to the side.

Luffy turned his attention away from Caribou and crossed his arms as he yelled out,

"Everyone!"

The whole crew turned to Luffy, with Usopp, Chopper, and Brook paling once they saw his smirk.

"We are going to tame that octopus and make it take us to Fishman Island!"

Obviously, Usopp tried to convince him not to go through with it while Robin was drawing the Kraken with Franky complimenting the drawing and Chopper yelling at the two in disbelief.

Zoro was calming discussing with Luffy about how they were going to capture it and Nami tried to tell them to turn the ship south.

Sanji came up to Nami, saying that he was going to protect her, but once he saw her face, he got a nosebleed, which was a smaller one compared to his other ones, making Usopp and Chopper happy for him.

Caribou grit his teeth and thought,

'How can a crew act so calm in a situation like this?! There's a killer sea creature just under us and all they're doing is messing around! How am I going to get out of this mess?!'

He was suddenly filled with hope when he heard a shout of 'Brother!' from nearby.

He, along with the Straw Hats, looked up and saw Mohmoo dragging Caribou's ship with Coribou and his crew.

Coribou then yelled out,

"We've come to save you, Brother!"

Caribou teared up and yelled back,

"Coribou!"

He was so happy to finally to be saved, but his mood fell down the drain when he saw the Kraken grab his ship.

When he saw the Kraken start crushing the ship, Caribou yelled out,

"No!"

It was all for naught as the Kraken crushed his ship mercilessly, not caring that it possibly killed Caribou's brother and crew as they floated back up to the surface.

As Caribou cried over his fallen comrades, Zoro stood by him and commented that they looked like jellyfish, pissing off Caribou.

This didn't sit well for Luffy, who was still pissed at Caribou, and soon Caribou was on the floor with several bruises.

The Kraken seemed to finally notice them and it sprang up at the Thousand Sunny.

Before the Kraken could strike the ship with one of it's tentacles, Franky acted quickly and made the ship dodge the attack by making the Lion Head spin.

Nami had some doubt about fighting the Kraken, but Luffy seemed really persistent on fighting the Kraken so she didn't know what to do.

Caribou decided to be helpful for once and mentioned about bubble suits they could use to fight.

After getting the explanation, Luffy, Sanji, and Zoro quickly jumped out of the ship and headed straight for the Kraken, ready to kick its ass.

The Kraken didn't register the approaching Monster trio and attacked the ship with one of it's tentacles, but Franky hit it with one of his shoulder rocket launchers, protecting the crew.

This impressed Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy, but they soon got worried when the Kraken attacked again from the other side, but sighed in relief when Chopper was able to use his Guard Point, taking most of the damage that the ship would've taken.

Even though the ship was safe, the attack still caused the ship to headed straight for a boulder. Luckily, Robin was able to activate her devil fruit powers and made some gigantic hands to form that pushed the ship away.

Luffy grew a proud smile as he watched his crew.

'They really have gotten stronger in the past 2 years. I'm glad.'

Luffy looked at both Zoro and Sanji and smirked.

'Now, it's time for us to show our results as well.'

Knowing that he needed time, Luffy got Zoro and Sanji's attention.

"Guys," Zoro and Sanji turned to Luffy, "I need both of you to give me some time because this attack I'm planning will take some time."

Zoro and Sanji smirked as they said,

"Alright, Captain."

Luffy smirked grew and he took in a deep breath before he blew into his left thumb, causing it to inflate.

When it was the size of a giant's hand, he transferred the air to his stomach, which he then transferred to his right fist that was waiting outside the soap bubble.

Luffy winced a little at the feeling of the ocean, but got over it and muttered,

"Busoshoku: Koka"

His right fist suddenly turned black, making the crew stare in awe at his ability to turn use Armament Haki even in water.

The Kraken seemed to notice him, but before it could strike him, Sanji came to the rescue as he used his new technique, Blue Walk, and ran to the Kraken's tentacle and struck it with his burning leg, singeing the tentacle slightly.

Sanji, after protecting Luffy, quickly tried to return to his bubble, but stopped when he saw that the Kraken was going to attack him.

He was saved by Zoro, who slowly drew out all 3 of his swords as he said,

"Santoryu Ougi: Rokudo no Tsugi."

The tentacle was instantly chopped into pieces.

"Zoro, Sanji, you do realize that I'm trying to tame this thing, right?!"

Zoro and Sanji forgot about that and sweat dropped as they apologized.

"Sorry, Luffy."

Luffy shook his head at their forgetfulness, but decided to save it for later.

He narrowed his eyes as he used all the strength he could to push his right fist forward and yelled out,

"Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun!"

His blackened fist struck the Kraken in the face, knocking it unconscious.

The crew and Caribou watched all this in awe and wondered how could they have gotten so strong in such little time.

Chopper, after breaking out of his shock, noticed that something was coming out of the Kraken.

"Is that a shark?"

Chopper's guess was right as a giant shark was shown, but it didn't look like a normal shark because it was wearing a shirt.

The shark swam to Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji before nodding it's head and swimming away.

Sanji, as they watched the shark swim away, commented,

"What a polite shark."

Luffy and Zoro agreed with his statement.

Before they could talk any further, they all felt a pulling sensation, causing them get startled.

"What the hell?"

"What's happening?"

"We're getting pulled in by the current!"

They tried heading back to the Thousand Sunny, but due to them being so startled, they didn't have time to get a running start so they were pulled in by the current.

This made everyone on the Thousand Sunny panic.

"They were pulled in by the current!"

"We'll lose them if they get to far!"

"Shit, after them!"
