Souldin: What is the order of strength among the 7 Nightmare Buccaneers (including Greg)?
Game2002: From strongest to weakest – Wonmoment, Greg, Spike, Catty, Fiasco/Kishido/Lobolover, Zee-Kaiser. The reason for the slanted lines between Fiasco, Kishido, and Lobolover is because those three are equally powerful; never has it really been proven who among them the stronger one is. As of now, most people in AP Flums agree that those three are equal in terms of power.
Souldin: What do you think is the most memorable moment in your stories?
Game2002: Hard to say since I have been writing for a long time already and there are a lot of stories to keep track of.
Souldin: Are the swordsmen Smashers using their respective swords from the games?
Game2002: For the most part, yes; Link uses the Master Sword, Ike uses the Ragnell, Meta-Knight, uses the Galaxia, and Roy uses the Binding Blade. Marth's sword default sword before he got the Durandal has never been mentioned that it is the Falcion, so one would assume that it's just a normal sword, but that's up to speculation. Young Link and Toon Link, on the other hand, use normal swords, but as TL said in Gamfax III, his sword is said to be imbued with the power of the wind.
JakeCrusher: Who is/was/will be the Smashers' ultimate enemy?
Game2002: That's not something that can be determined as of now because the Smashers never had a single villain that is particularly targeting them.
Chapter 11
The Wonders of Color! Spike's Colorful Fighting Style!
"I found you at last!" Luffy said to Oceanizor. He looked around and then said, "That would mean I'm in the ship. Didn't really think that I would end up here so fast…"
Oceanizor looked at the fallen Fiasco and then turned to Luffy. "So you manage to defeat Fiasco and even made your way here, though I never welcomed you in the first place. Are you here to come to your own grave or what?"
"More like you're going to your own grave," Luffy said while doing stretches. "Anyway, I'm here to kick your ass and make sure that you don't go destroying some ninja country or hurt the old man Whitebeard!"
"Do you think you have what it takes to stop me?" Oceanizor asked him. "If you think you are confident enough to take on me, let's see what you can do. See if you are strong enough to stop me!"
"You bet I will! Gum Gum Pistol!" Luffy pulled back his fist and then threw his arm forward, but Oceanizor to dodge it.
"Is that all?" he asked.
Luffy pulled back his arm and threw the other one, but Oceanizor caught it this time. Changing his other hand into a gatling gun, he fired bullets rapidly into Luffy's body and the bullets pelted him over and over constantly, though not piercing him thanks to his body of rubber. He then let go of Luffy's hand and the bullets pushed Luffy back into the wall.
"Ugh! That won't kill me!" Luffy said. "Gum Gum Balloon!" He inhaled lots of air to expand his stomach and bounced all away all the bullets. When he returned to normal size, he ran towards Oceanizor while pulling one hand back using the other one. "Gum Gum Bullet!"
Right when his fist was about to struck Oceanizor in the body however, the villain's hand changed into cannon and he launched an explosive blast right into his face
BANG!!!!
"Ack!" Luffy flew out from the explosion and crashed out of the door, tumbling down the hallway. "It actually hurts…" When he got up and looked at the door, he saw Oceanizor standing there firing more bullets at him. When one of the bullets struck Luffy in the shoulder, it pierced through his skin and he realized that these were bullets with sharp heads. "Uh oh…" And he quickly made a run for it while trying his best to dodge the needle-like bullets.
"There is no escape for you," Oceanizor said. This time merely changing his finger into a futuristic-looking turret, he fired a thin red beam across the air and blasted Luffy in the leg.
ZAP!
"AAAHH!!!" Luffy fell down from the burning pain on his leg and cried in pain. He then turned around and said, "Damn! I'm going to show that guy!" Grabbing onto the pipes which were on both sides of the hall, he pulled back as far as he could and then leaped off the floor. "Gum Gum Rocket!"
Oceanizor simply stood aside though and Luffy kept on going until he crashed through the cockpit and towards the water. "Uh oh…" he cried. He quickly turned around and caught the ship with his arm and catapulted himself back inside again.
The moment he landed though, sharp bullets were fired at him and he quickly leaped out of the way before throwing a punch at Oceanizor. "Is that the best you can do?" Oceanizor asked as he prepared to dodge it again.
However, Luffy pulled his arm to the side a bit and then let it go, resulting in the arm become wavy and 'shaky'. "Gum Gum Shotgun!" Because of the erratic movement of the arm this time, Oceanizor wasn't able to fully dodge it by stepping aside and actually got hit.
POW!
"Ugh…" Oceanizor leaped to the side getting struck in the cheek and instantly opened fire at Luffy who failed to dodge the shot in time and was hit by an explosion.
KAAABOOOOOOOM!!!!!!
"Ah!" He fell back from the blast but managed to remain on his feet and glared in Oceanizor's direction.
"Don't get too full of yourself, Straw Hat!" Oceanizor said to him.

"Now the whole room is yellow!" Toon Link complained. "And the old man hid himself again like a chameleon!"
"Looks closely! We should be able to find out where he is!" Ness said.
"I've been lying in front of you the whole time and yet you didn't notice me!" said the voice of Spike.
"What?!" Before Ness could look down, a leg rose up and kicked him in the chin, sending him back into the air. "Oof!"
Spike suddenly came to be on the yellow floor and stood up. The moment he did, TL and Young Link both rushed at him and swung their blades, but the old man leaped out of the way swiftly.
"How about a change of color this time?" Spike asked. "What say we go with blue?" Immediately, the part of the floor starting with underneath his feet started to turn blue until the yellow color was overwritten completely.
"It changed color again!" YL said.
"Such is the uniqueness of the Kara Kara Fruit!" Spike said. "With this power, one's life can become a lot more colorful!"
Note: 'Kara' is Japanese for 'Color'.
"Like I care!" TL said. He ran to Spike to slash him. The old man jumped back into the air however and pointed his finger like a gun at TL and shot out a rapid burst of blue-colored energy bullets but TL blocked them with his shield.
"PK Fire!" Ness fired a spark at Spike the moment he landed but the old man swiftly ducked down to avoid it and then fired more energy bullets in his direction. "PSI Magnet!" Ness quickly held up a shield that absorbed the projectiles though.
YL was the next one to attack the old man but Spike dodged every single one of his blows by moving around with rhythm and managed to avoid everything that was thrown at him. He suddenly delivered a kick into YL's hand and knocked away his sword, and then he placed his hand in front of YL's face. "Red Cracker!"
And an explosion similar to that of firework exploded in front of YL's face, blasting him backwards.
BANG!
"Ah!"
"Hey you!" TL suddenly jumped at Spike and brought down his sword but the old man moved back. TL immediately swung his sword to the side upon landing to hit him in the legs but Spike managed to jumped up and avoid getting hit as well.
While he was in air though, Ness launched several colored energy balls at him. "PSI Rocking!"
"Eh?"
BAAAAAAAAAAANG!!!!
Unable to dodge them in air, Spike was blown backwards but managed to land on his feet. "That's a surprise! Can't say you didn't get me that time!" he said. "That's some flashy move you've got there, kid. You're one heck of a youngster!"
"Don't underestimate young people like us!" Ness told him.
"Then I could say the same thing as well. Don't underestimate grandpa here!" Spike said while doing some stretches. "What say we hang out with each other until something happens? It would be a shame if this were to end so fast, so let's have fun for a while! It's been a while since I've gotten so lively!"
"You seem to be in a playful mood, gramps. If you ask me, you don't look that much like a bad guy."
"I wouldn't care less for what the captain and the others are doing. I just want to seek excitement and have some fun. So try and keep me entertained, what do you say? Spectrum Surprise!" Spike opened his fingers and a small ball of white light was formed on the palm and with a puff of air from the mouth, he blew the ball of white light forward.
The three kids looked at the ball of light as it slowly bobbled up and down in air towards them and wondered what it was, but the ball of light suddenly exploded into a colorful explosion, blowing them back.
BANG!!!
"Whoa! You're asking for it, old geezer!" TL said in frustration. He rushed towards Spike to attack him and the old man moved back and swung his finger across the air and created a solid silver line that blocked the incoming sword. "Eh?"
Spike then caught the silver line that he created by one end and used it as a sword to battle against TL. YL then jumped at him from behind to hit him in the back, but Spike knew this and quickly drew another silver line behind him, not only blocking the downward slash that YL performed but also using that line as his second sword.
Both the young swordsmen clashed their blades with the old man who displayed agility and skill in using the pseudo swords. As the fought, Ness shot out a thunder ball into the air and steered it towards Spike. "PK Thunder!"
Spike saw this and quickly performed a back flip, streaking his feet across the air and creating a golden arc that, amazingly enough, absorbed the thunder ball. When he landed on his feet, he hurled both the silver lines at TL and YL but they dodged it.
"Disco Bomb!" Spike then formed a ball of light that was glowing with various colors and then he hurled it into the air.
"Be careful!" YL said, holding up his shield in front of his face.
The ball of light spun rapidly and started expanding and shrinking until all of a sudden, it exploded in a spectacular flash and filled the whole place with all sorts of bright colors.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!!!!!
"AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!" The powerful force of the explosion burned up several things in the room and the kids were pushed back into the wall very hard. When the explosion finally died down, the entire room was dyed with various colors.
"What was that?!" TL cried. He looked at his hand and was surprised that they were in various different colors. Not only that, but his entire body was dyed with all sorts of color as if someone threw paint onto him. "Hey! I'm colored!"
"Me too!" said YL, who were covered in mostly red, blue, and yellow.
"Me three!" Ness added.
"Don't worry," Spike said to them, and the old man himself was covered in various colors too. "The color is purely for looks. It just makes you look a lot more colorful! This makes the fighting scene a lot cooler, don't you think?"
-
"Thank you very much!" the girls said.
As you would expect, Sanji was currently being embraced from all sides by the girls after he had freed them from their prisons, and needless to say, the cook is more than overjoyed to be so welcomed among them. "This is paradise! Hoohoohoo!" the cook said to himself happily. He could faint from excitement any minute.
Chopper was just as popular as the girls couldn't help but give the furry little thing a good snuggling and hugging. "Wow! He's so cute! I want to touch him!"
"I'm not going to be happy just because you called me cute, you jerk!" Chopper said with a cheerful look on his face.
"All right! We can leave this celebration for later!" Nami suddenly said out loud. "We should try to get out of here first before the others find out!"
"Oh, you're not getting away from here so easily!" said a couple of voices that belong to the pirate lackeys. With swords and guns in their hands, they approached them and said, "You may have beaten up Zee-Kaiser, but you still have to get through us!"
Sanji started to approach them and said, "You want a death wish? You better not a lay hand on any of these girls or else…"
Suddenly, Hatsune Miku walked past Sanji and towards the pirates.
"Huh? What are you doing?" Sanji asked her, but she didn't give a reply.
"What's up, girl? Surrendering yourself or what?" one of the pirates asked her, but all of a sudden, the Vocaloid jumped and spun in air to land a roundhouse kick into his head. "Oof!"
"What the?!" the other pirate gasped. Before he could react, Miku landed a kick to his stomach and as the other pirates approached, she did several acrobatic flips and cartwheels towards them and started beating the lights out of everyone with ease.
"Hiya! Vocaloid Kick!"
POW WHACK KICK POOF CRASH!!!
"Wow! She's great!" the other girls exclaimed while Sanji watched in awe while trying to get a good glimpse of possible upskirt sightings.
"Then how did she get captured in the first place then…?" Nami wondered.
-
"Dammit! Will you two stop standing back up again?!" Link said in frustration. Standing in front of him were Hekti and Jawad, both of whom were badly wounded from head to toe. Despite their wounds, they tried their best to stand back up.
"Ninjas… They must… die…" they both said. "They shall… go to… hell… with us…"
"Tsk… I really pity these guys for their simple-mindedness…" Zoro said. "They're really persistent, aren't they?"
Hekti and Jawad raised their swords and slowly approached them again in a manner similar to a zombie, which is what they look like currently. "Ninjas… They must die…" the groaned.
"Are they even human?!" Nana said.
Robin then made arms appeared around their bodies and necks. "Clutch!" Under her command, the arms bent their bodies backwards and broke their bones. After the sickening-sounding crack, they both fell back onto the floor and didn't get up this time. "That should do."
"It pains me to both hear and see this…" Zelda cried.
"All right, we've beaten up the enemies here and Robin also called for outside support," Zoro said, "What else is left for us to do?"
"Maybe we should go back to the others and stay with them," Popo suggested.
"Or maybe we should go and look for Luffy and try helping him," suggested Link. "You'll never know if he needs our help."
"I'm sure the captain and your friends will be all right," Robin assured him.
As the group began to head out of the room, they spotted someone standing at the door. Wonmoment, who was leaning against the doorframe, turned to look at them with an expressionless face that he always has and said, "You've really caused quite a mess here. Thanks to you guys, one of the captain's goals can't come true anymore."
"Who are you?" Link asked.
Popo recognized the person however. "Uh oh, it's that Wonmoment guy…"
"So he's the guy you claimed is so powerful that even Luffy got defeated by him?" Zoro said, getting his swords ready. "I'd like to see for myself how powerful this guy is then!"
-
A lone battleship was sailing across the sea and a sailor was on the front of the deck looking at the horizon with a telescope. When he thought he saw a speck way in the distance, he turned to his superior, a large imposing old man with gray facial hair, and said, "Vice Admiral Garp! I believe we have spotted Gillax Island, the place where the SOS signal came from!"
"Very well," said Garp. "Full speed ahead then! Never thought that it would be the hiding place for AP Flums this whole time…"
TO BE CONTINUED
Yes, that's the Garp we all know. Nothing against it, right?
