Yo! Ok, I'm so so sorry I haven't updated since March. I kinda got out of One Piece, but now I've kinda returned to it, as I've started reading the manga. I am now resuming updating (hopefully). I've gotten sooooo many ideas for this, but I have forgetten something from this, sadly. I'll try to keep up the continuity though! Enjoy!

Chapter 10

C VS C

The first thing I registered was the blinding pain spreading through my body. But I quickly gathered myself and the stopped going into shock. I looked down and saw the mess of my stomach.

I looked up to see Carpello standing there.

How did I not notice him?

He seemed preoccupied with cackling, so I ripped Rowans shirt and tied it tightly around his stomach. It was already bleeding through when I shakily got to my feet, but it was all I could do at the moment.

He was still laughing.

While I still had time I ripped my trousers to shorts and wrapped them around my stomach.

He'd stopped.

"Well that was easier than expected. How do you hope to save this island with a hole in your stomach? Your finished!"

"And your jumping to conclusions!" I shot back,"One, the bullet didn't even go all the way through my body!" Oh shit, I haven't removed the bullet! "Two, I don't want to save an island, I want to beat up an ass, and three, I don't want to be looked down upon a man with an annoying as fuck laugh!" Ahhhhh, that's a nice expression. I need to find a camera.

"Anyway, you can't hope to defeat me! You can't beat all of us!" He shook himself out of the absurd expression. Around him appeared a good 100 something lackeys.

They all jumped my at the same time, but for some reason didn't actually land in front of me. I sigh and a second later a small earthquake was felt, and everywhere an enemy was standing collapsed or the ground went crazy. Dust settled and all of the were defeated. But Carpello just laughed. And more people appeared.

And they seemed more scared.

They started to attack hesitantly and they weren't really into it. Until Carpello shot bullets into the air.

"You useless worms! Attack to kill the bitch!" He shouted at them.

Then they attacked more relentlessly. I noticed they had an assortment of mismatched weapons. Guns, swords, daggers, even a pitchfork or two. And they weren't wearing the suits that the lackeys had worn...

"CARPELLO," I shouted and looked at him, enraged,"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" And I jumped above the villagers and aimed my staff for his head. He manages to move out the way, but barely. I catch the side of his face, and smash his nose.

It starts to gush blood as I stand in front of him and glare.

"Why are the villagers doing your work for you?" I ask.

"Hey, get back from boss!" A body guard that had stayed to guard the bastard came to attack from my side. I don't even see him, I just slam my fist in his face instinctively.

"Why are the villagers doing your work for you?"

He still ignores me and shouts at the innocents,"Attack her! Do you want your precious wives and children to die, 'cos your acting like you do!" He yells to them.

Well I guess he did answer my question.

My fist clenches. I just hate people like him. They don't care about other people. I mean, sure he's a pirate, but innocent people don't need to get involved. There weaker than you, so don't bother them. Do tigers acknowledge insects? No!

"Hey Carpello," I walk up to him.

He jumps back,"W-What?"

"Say goodbye to your ass," And I punch him. He lands pretty far away, and crashes just under the top of his mansion halfway across the island. He's resting in the impact hole he made.

"Captain!" I hear a shout behind me and swivel to see Fuyu run towards me.

"Hey Fuyu," I get out before I collapse. I guess I've lost too much blood.

"Are you ok?" He asks uncertainly.

"Ummm, I don't think so, so please give me your jacket," I request.

"Ummmmm, sure..." He shrugs off his jacket and throws it down to me. I rip it to long strips and tie them tightly to my stomach. Luckily they're thick.

"Yours definitely finished off? I ask as I slowly get up.

"Yeah, he is out," Fuyu clarifies.

"Take Rowan and head to his Grandmothers. He needs medical attention,"

"Are you not coming?" He inquires.

"I'm just gonna make sure Carpello is fully defeated. You were the one who realised fake Donte was probably still conscious, so I'm just following on the great teachings of Fuyu-Sensei,"

"But, um, your in a higher place than me..." He says confused.

I sigh,"You know, doesn't matter, please just take him!"

And then I crouch down.

"Longitudinal leap!"

And, I'm gone.

As I shoot through the air I contemplate whether I've aimed correctly. And I guess I have as I land next to him.

"How is he still alive?" I question as I see him stirring.

"I'll defeat you!" He says croakily. I roll my eyes and snap my fingers,

"Light removal"

"Hey! I can't see," he begins flailing as I ready a punch.

"Transverse:amplify 100!"

I land my punch in his stomach and we begin to crash through floors. We were on the top floor, which I think is fifth. And now we are on ground floor.

"Oh, I forgot he's still human. Ahhhh, he could be dead!" Oh wait, he's still alive and kicking... Barely.

I plop my self next to him as he feebly attempts to get up.

"How did he control an entire island, when he only landed one hit on me? He's super tough, I'll give him that, but he's nothing special. Maybe Dontecello was the real leader," I pause at that realisation.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME! FUYU TOOK DOWN THE REAL LEADER!" Birds get disturbed by my outburst.

I stand and stretch, then instantly stumble. I look down too my stomach and wince.

I should really see the doctor now...

Oh wait.

I grab Carpello by the collar and drag him outside. I throw back my right arm then launch him in the air. I then jump up then, in mid air, gather power to my right leg, the kick Carpello to God knows where.

I find Dontecello and do the same to him.

"I should really find the doctor now,"

I look down one last time, and peer beneath the bandages.

"Oh, it did go through my back..."

That felt a bit quick... But I purposefully made Carpello weak 'cos that fitted the fact I wanted Celandine to totally pulverise someone! Still can't make it long enough though (sigh). Carpello is the real leader though so don't worry about that. And who knows, they could reappear... (Yeah, they're not going to). I promise next time I won't update so late. See yah!
