Chapter 10: Reveal the 'IT'?
Zoro was sitting on the floor still trying to analyze the situation. After all that boasting and show of strength he was still unable to protect one of his friends. He promised to protect her but was failed. No…it's not like he's gonna give up; he will not let them do whatever they are plotting
Just then everyone else also entered the room and most of them noticed now almost-filled hole…
Sanji: (with shocked expression) what is the meaning of this?
Zoro: We were too much focused on front-lines, someone snuck from underground and got Robin…
Nami: that could be understood easily but the problem is how did they now where she was?
Hancock: No! The biggest problem is why are they after Robin?
Sanji: Maybe marimo-san here knows something about it?
Zoro: watch it swirl face!
Hancock: Zoro! Please explain everything to us!
Zoro: *sigh* I don't now the whole story either. I asked Robin about it but she didn't tell me anything… only thing I know is that Mareijois has destroyed her whole kingdom except her and they were keeping her in that castle for some purpose… I don't know what the purpose is…
Franky: Well! If they were willing to sacrificing that many men to get her than it has to be something very big…
Luffy: big or small! They made a mistake to steal one of our nakama and I'll make them pay dearly for it
Sanji: If anything happen to Robin-chan, I'll rip that whole country to pieces…
Luffy: Franky! Go and prepare everything. This time WE will launch an all out attack
Franky: I heard ya Bro! I'm on it…
Ussop came running to the room from behind…
Ussop: Oi! Guys… huh? Everyone is gathered here? What happened? What was all that noise?
Everyone was watching at him awkwardly…
Ussop: …what?
Zoro stood up and grabbing Ussop started walking towards exit with a stern expression and angry look in his eyes…
Nami: where are you going?
Zoro: you can prepare for the attack all you want. I'm going ahead with some special help…
Hancock: huh?
Sanji: Special help?
Just then Zoro started running and jumped down from the corresponding hallway…
Nami: Zoro wait! That side… of…palace… (Everyone heard Zoro and Ussop's screams while falling down) … is on a…cliff…
Hancock: ZORO!
Sanji: IDIOT!
Franky: are they still alive?
Ussop and Zoro were hanging beside the cliff with a rope that was coming out of Ussop's belt…
Ussop: phew! I'm glad I was wearing this belt…YOU! WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING? WHAT IF I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN WEARING THIS BELT?
Zoro: whatever! Just hold on tightly and let go of the rope when I say so…
Ussop: *gulp*…ok!
With a boost Zoro started running towards a side of cliff and then gave a signal to Ussop, Ussop released the rope and with one push Zoro jumped on a nearby tree (I know that in original scenario Ussop wasn't able to release the rope, but here he can). Getting on ground Zoro picked a random horse and putting Ussop behind him on horse's back started riding it wildly in full speed…
Zoro: Ussop! We are going to pay a visit to a friend…
Ussop: huh? Who?
After some time Zoro on his horse along with Ussop came out from the woods and started climbing the volcano, after reaching at top he got off and started shouting at top of his voice…
Zoro: AAACCCCEEEEEEEE! …where is he? Don't tell me he isn't here…
Ussop: wow! Asking a dragon for help is a very clever idea but… will he be ready to help us?
Zoro: we have no choice but to hope so…that guy is the best help I can find and it would be much faster to fly there… AAACCCCEEEEEEEE…ARE YOU THERE?
A moment later Ace popped his head out of the lava beneath the castle…?
Ace: huh? Who is it? (after searching carefully on the top he noticed the two) oh! Is that you? …. Aaa! Zoro, right?
Ace jumped and flew towards others…
Zoro: What were you doing?
Ace: I was just taking a bath…
Ussop: (shocked) you are resistant to magma?
Ace: of course! I'm a dragon…
Zoro: you were killed by magma, remember?
Ace: pfft… that's bullshit, I would believe it if that Akainu bastard would've been using Haki at that time, but I don't believe otherwise…
Zoro: let's stop it and get to the main issue… Mareijois has kidnapped Robin… I need your help
Ace: huh? Robin, you mean that princess who was here?
Ussop: yes…
Dragon: oh man! That's bad… anyway, they mess with my friends they mess with me, let's go fire up their asses…
Zoro: heh! I got lucky… again
With Ace's signal Zoro jumped on his back and Ace flew towards their destination that was Mareijois Capital…
Ace: how do you know that princess is there?
Zoro: I don't, we just have to kick that king's ass and spill it out of him…
Ace: haha! I like your way of thinking…
Mareijois Capital
At the edge of the city there was a big tower-like building, inside that tower a stage was set in a hall-like place and almost all higher officers and many soldiers were there as audiences… there was something under a curtain, maybe 'it'
Suddenly a spot light lit up and King Spandam came to stage and stopped right in between the Spotlight
Spandam: my loyal minions! Now is the time to show you my greatest achievement… the reason why we raided and destroyed Ohara…achievement of last 15 years of hard work…
Borsalino: So! You're gonna show us that weapon that you were talking about?
Spandam: exactly! Now we even have the key to operate it…
Spandam signaled and from up above and behind the curtain Robin was lowered down, she was almost hanging with a wooden log by her hands which were tied by a metal chain…She was lowered down enough that her feet were touching the stage and she was able to barely stand…
Spandam: Nico Robin! This girl is the key to operate this weapon…
Spandam turned his eyes to Robin, she was glaring him with a very angry and disgusted look…
Spandam: huh? Don't give me that look now, you also knew all along, right? That is the only reason why I have kept you alive so far…
Bon Clay: (raising his hand and jumping excitedly) yuhoo! King-chan, king-chan…
Spandam: what is it?
Bon Clay: is she the only one who knows how to operate that thing?
Spandam: no, no! It's not like that…*sigh* let me explain…
Spandam turned Robin's back towards the crowd and taking out a knife and moving her hair aside, started cutting her dress to reveal her back…
Random Soldier: WOHOO! FAN SERVICE…
Spandam: SHUT UP! IT'S NOT FAN SERVICE… I'M GONNA SHOW ONLY HER BACK, THAT'S ALL…
Crowd: boooooooooo….
Spandam: SHUT UP! YOU BUNCH OF PERVERTS…*sigh* see Nico Robin! How kind I am? Because you are so important for my ambition I'm saving you from this kind of things HAHAHAHA…
Robin: you can go to the lowest level of hell with this kindness of yours for all I care about
Spandam stopped laughing and slapped her
Spandam: watch your mouth, you are talking to the first ever king of this whole planet. You are nothing but just a tool for me to achieve my ambition
Spandam finished cutting the piece of cloth to reveal her back to everyone
Soldier1: huh? What is that?
Soldier2: a tattoo?
Kuzan: don't tell me she was a slave of a noble or something
Spandam: IT'S NOT THAT…
Soldier3: hey! I think I've seen these kinds of tattoos somewhere before…
Soldier1: yeah! Know I remember these are used everywhere in Naruto…
Soldier3: not everywhere idiot, only to put seals…
Soldier4: don't tell me there is a Tailed Beast sealed behind that curtain…
Kuzan: My Lord! Are you thinking of 'Moon Eye Plan' or something?
Spandam: ALL OF YOU SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTHS! THE HELL WITH TAILED BEASTS AND WHAT'S THAT MOON EYE PLAN? FOR ME THAT KIND OF PLAN IS JUST A FLUKE, 'MAKING WORLD ONE WITH ONESELF'? THAT'S BULLSHIT. NOW SHUT UP AND LET ME SPEAK…
Everyone: Sorry My Lord…
Spandam: *sigh* man! Just explaining these things to these idiots is troublesome…Now! There is no 'Pluton' or 'Tailed Beast', what's behind the curtain is this…
With Spandam's order curtain from the object was lowered down to reveal a face made of May-be stone…
Soldier5: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT?
Spandam: Behold… 'THE SAVIOR'…MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA… (Savior from Devil May Cry 4)
(If you haven't played DMC 4 or don't know about Savior than you can google it and according to me you have missed the chance to witness one of the biggest weapon of mass destruction)
Spandam: This is a demon that was sealed by demon king himself 2000 years ago… he handed key of the seal to the king of Ohara and since then the key is handed over generation over generation… (Pointing towards Robin's back) this is the key of the seal and by combining the seal with alive human as sacrifice this demon will be awaken and will use that sacrifice as its life source…HAHAHAHAHAHA…
Sakazuki: but what if this demon doesn't listen to us and goes on a rampage?
Spandam: no! That's not possible; I'll control this demon and command it from within its head, but we have to replace the life source time to time…
Kuzan: you mean she will die?
Spandam: Well! Not right away but maybe after sometime…*sigh* Man! It was a gigantic pain in the ass to bring this thing all over here…
Robin was just almost-hanging there with a disconsolate face. Her life would end just like that, she will cause destruction of not only the world but also to those who she thought as friends and cared for, she didn't want this, she never wanted anything like this. She wanted to live with them. Right now Robin was just hoping and maybe praying too that somehow someone would stop this and save her…Spandam noticed Robin's gloomy face…
Spandam: what's the matter Nico Robin? You should be happy…heh! Let me tell you one thing… (Spandam grabbed her by hair and turned her face towards himself) my first target will be those freakin' monsters, those bastards from Dawn Kingdom… hehehehehe! (Snickering evily)
Robin: no… don't do it…
Robin wanted to say it out loud but she knew Spandam wasn't the kind of person who will listen to someone's requests…
Spandam noticed Robin's sad and disappointed face and some tears which were unconsciously flowing down from Robin's eyes
Spandam: HAHA! THAT'S PERFECT, I LOVE THIS EXPRESSION ON HELPLESS PEOPLE'S FACE…HAHAHAHAHA… I CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY I'M RIGHT NOW…HAHAHAHAHAHA…
Just then another soldier entered the hall screaming…
Soldier6: MY LORD, MY LOR…what in the world is that?
Spandam: ignore it and tell me what is it?
Soldier6: oh yeah! Prince Zoro of Dawn Kingdom is attacking the capital; our forces can't contain him…
Robin: what? Zoro?
Spandam: hmmm? Hehe! Did you hear Nico Robin? So, is that your lover or something? Haha! Whoever he is he wanted to be a hero charging alone in enemy's territory? Back then was different, this time he won't return alive he is alone after all…
Soldier6: A-actually he isn't alone... he is with a Dragon
Spandam: huh? …? A DRAGON? YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME…WHAT IS IT WITH THEM AND THEIR STUPID MONSTROUS STUNTS?
Robin: Ace?
Spandam: Anyway! There is nothing to be worried about; even if it's a Dragon it will be squashed flat like a moth by The Savior…hehehe (turning to Robin) it's time for showdown Nico Robin…
Phew! It's going good so far, but you know what? it's a pain in the ass for me to insert emotional parts in stories, so please tell me should i try to move on or just leave the emotional parts here through your PRECIOUS REVIEWS, a million thanks for Reading and reviewing. Good Bye...(Please tell me how was the idea to put in 'The Savior') THANK YOU AGAIN...
