A/N: I don't own One Piece
"It's time to start" Miss All Sunday told the gather agents, "so now let me introduce you to your boss".
"Until now, I have acted as a private face" the man stated, "but there is no more need for that, do you understand".
"It's about time" Mr. 2 said.
"Plan Utopia" the man told them, "this is the final plan of Baroque Works".
"Crocodile" the agents yelled in shock.
Crocodile is a tall man with a wide chest, broad shoulders, muscular arms and legs, and a thick neck. He has pale skin and nape-length black hair which is kept neatly slicked back. Crocodile has various battle wounds, most notably a long-stitched scar at the bridge of his nose that stretches across his face and a large hook made from a tough gold alloy in place of his left hand. His eyes are deep-set and heavy-lidded, and his thin eyebrows are characteristically drawn upward in the middle. Crocodile wore a bright orange, black-striped button up vest over a long-sleeve peach shirt, along with a blue scarf, dark brown suit pants, and polished black shoes with gold buckles. He also wore a long, thick, dark pelted fur coat over his shoulders.
"Any complaints" Crocodile with a smirk on his face.
"No complaints, just a question" Miss Doublefinger asked, "why are you doing this".
"I want a military force" Crocodile told them, "but let's talk about our objective first, we will take over this country in one night".
"Operation: Utopia" Mr. 2 said.
"I would appreciate it if I was let in on this operation" Mr. 3 cut in.
"How did you get here" Miss All Sunday asked in shock.
"I've been following you since Spiders Café" Mr. 3 told them, "but boss, please listen to me, I may have failed to complete my orders, but I want one more chance".
"Failed to compete your orders" Crocodile growled out, "what do you mean by that".
"I'm speaking about the fact that I let the Straw Hats escape" Mr. 3 told him.
"You let them escape, so they're still alive" Crocodile yelled in outrage, "but you told me on the Den-Den Mushi that you had killed them".
"Den-Den Mushi" Mr. 3 questioned, "I never used the Den-Den Mushi on Little Garden".
"What" Crocodile said in shock, "at least I know why the Unluckies never returned, you at least managed to take out a few".
"Not exactly" Mr. 3 replied in terror.
"What" Crocodile yelled in frustration.
"There was misinformation" Mr. 3 told him, "there were actually four pirate escorts".
"Why you" Crocodile roared.
"Zero-Chan, what's going on here" Mr. 2 asked as he stared between the two men.
"Mr. 3 had reported that he killed these pirates" Miss All Sunday stated as she place pictures on the desk.
"I met these people" Mr. 2 told the group in shock, "I met them the way here".
Mr. 2 shifted between all the appearances of the pirates that he had met. He got the pictures taken of all their faces as Crocodile explained that they were the only other people who knew his true identity. Mr. 3 stared in shock as he watched and heard the proceedings and decided to beg for the mans forgiveness. The agents stared in terror as Crocodile wrapped his hand around Mr. 3's neck and shrivelled up his skin by draining the water from his body. He walked over to the railing near the table they were sitting on and threw the man down into a room as he knocked on the glass nearby.
"Now that's done for, we have to make sure these pirates don't meet the rebels" Crocodile told them, "they are the only ones that have the ability to stop this rebellion, so make sure the billions and millions know to exterminate them in site and after you are finished with your orders you will do the same".
The Straw Hats
Unbeknownst to the Straw Hats they had arrived to late to stop the agents of Baroque Works from leaving to fulfil their orders. As the Straw Hats entered the town they decided that Luffy and Usopp would be put on water duty. Before the duo left for the closest tavern Usopp handed Nami a package containing three metal bars. After he handed it to her he started to sprint into the town with Luffy.
The pair entered the tavern closest to the entrance of Rainbase as the long-nosed sniper called for water. The duo sat down next to people at the bar and began to chug a barrel of water each before they heard some familiar voices. As the pair slowly turned their heads to the left they noticed Smoker and Tashigi of the Marines and in their haste to leave they spat out the water at the pair soaking them.
The Straw Hat pair picked up the barrels of water next to them and began to flee the bar as Smoker and Tashigi rose to their feet. The Marine pair began their chase as Usopp and Luffy left the bar and began to chase the two pirates through the streets of Rainbase. As Luffy and Usopp ran from the two Marines they noticed the rest of the crew bar Chopper resting and ran towards them as the crew noticed.
As the Straw Hats regrouped together bar Chopper more Marines burst onto the scene and kept up with Smoker and Tashigi in pursuit. As the pirates ran through the streets they began to notice the looks they were getting from nearby people, men and women who looked suspiciously like bounty hunters. As the bounty hunter rose to their feet Luffy made a decision.
"Vivi, where's Crocodile" Luffy shouted at the princess.
"There" Vivi yelled back as she pointed towards a pyramid shaped Casino with a Crocodile on top, "that's Rain Dinners".
"We should scatter" Sanji suggested.
"Yeah" Zoro told them in response Sanji's suggestion.
"Then we scatter" Luffy stated, "and we meet back up a Croc's house.
The Marines following the crew faltered as the pirates began to separate and un in different directions. Nami and Usopp ran off together, Zoro and Vivi ran with Vivi leading them, Sanji ran off to look for the little reindeer and Luffy took to the roof tops.
"Hey Smokey" Luffy called attracting the Logia Marine, "come and get me".
"That little brat" Smoker muttered in anger, "don't think you'll get away from me, White Vine".
Smoker transformed into his element and launched at Luffy, he began to wrap around the Straw Hatted boy. As the smoke began to wrap around his body Luffy coated his right hand in Busoshoku Haki, as the Marine Captain's hand formed out of the smoke Luffy grabbed it stopping the Marine in his tracks. Luffy through the Marine over his shoulder and down towards the road as he continued to flee from the group of Marines and the Billions from Baroque Works.
As the Straw Hatted pirate run toward Rain Dinners he soon noticed Nami, Usopp and Zoro standing in front of the Casino. Looking over his shoulder he could see that Smoker was still in pursuit of him.
"Hey guys" Luffy yelled as they looked at him, "Smokey's still chasing me, let's go inside".
The Straw Hats that were outside of the casino led the charge as they burst through the door with the Marine Captain hot on their heels. The group ran straight through the security guards knocking them out as they did, as they continued to run amuck in the Casino they noticed the security leading them into the VIP area. They ran in the direction they were told to as Smoker caught up to them, as the Marine Captain placed his hand on Usopp's shoulder the floor beneath them opened up and the group fell straight into a cage.
"Damn it" Luffy yelled as he held the bars, "what a clever trap".
"Indeed, it was" Usopp agreed.
"We did what he wanted us to do" Nami yelled at the pair as she slumped to the floor, "how could we be so stupid".
"Straw Hat" Smoker roared as he took his large jitte off his back.
"Luffy, watch out" Zoro yelled in warning.
"Smokey" Luffy yelled as he caught the jitte in his hand, "stop attacking me for a moment".
"Hmph, you're lucky this cage is made of seastone" Smoker told Luffy, "because if it wasn't I'd have dealt with you all and left by now".
"You should stop fighting" a rough voice said off to the side as the group turned and noticed Crocodile, "you'll kill each other, why can't you just be friends".
"Crocodile" Smoker muttered in frustration.
"You really are a stray hound Smoker, you never thought of me as an ally from the start" Crocodile stated with a laugh, "I was just going to have report you killed by the Straw Hats, I have reported your fights against them to the Marines already and they'll believe me, the government don't normally send Marines here after all".
"So that's one of the Shichibukai" Zoro muttered as he looked at the man.
"Crocodile" Luffy growled at the man.
"You've done well to get this far Straw Hat, I never thought I'd actually meet you, but don't worry I'll kill you soon enough" Crocodile gloated, "we're just waiting for our honoured guest to arrive and I've sent my partner to get her".
With Vivi
"I can't believe she gave us so much trouble" one of the billions surrounding Vivi stated, "we can see why she was a frontier agent now".
"Damn it" Vivi mumbled, "I can't die here, I have to get to Rain Dinners".
"That's too bad" one of the billions laughed as he stepped forward.
Vivi's breath hitched as the Baroque Works agent walked closer to her, the princess's eyes widened as she heard gun fire before the men around her started to fall to the ground. Her eyes scanned the sky where the bullets came from and she noticed a bird like creature flying towards here as a smile worked its way onto her face. As the bird like creature landed in front of her it shifted into a human that stared down the remain Baroque Works billions.
"Nice to see you again, princess" the man said with a smile, "please wait here a moment".
"Pell" Vivi muttered in shock as she looked at the man and watched as he transformed back into his Falcon like bird and tore through the remaining billions.
Pell is a tall man with a purple line under each eye that runs down the sides of his face, making him resemble a falcon, his Devil Fruit's animal. He wears a long white robe with brown star-like motifs on it and a matching hat. He has a big orange necklace around his neck, and also sports striped socks under a pair of normal shoes and he carries his sword on his right hip.
"You saved me" Vivi muttered in happiness before she sat up straight, "but now we must hurry to where everyone else is".
"Yes" a seductive voice stated from the side, "that's exactly what I was think".
"Miss All-Sunday" Vivi stated in sudden terror.
"How magnificent are you, this is the first time I've met a human we could fly" Miss All Sunday said with a chuckle, "but I wonder if I'm stronger than you".
"Princess, are these the people that you were talking about" Pell asked as he stood in front of his princess, "are these the people trying to destroy Alabasta".
"Now I can't use my precious employees anymore" Miss All Sunday complained, "but maybe I could take the princess to our place and introduce her to my friends, what do you think".
"Cut the crap already" Pell yelled, "that's out of the question".
"Stop screwing around" Vivi shouted in anger as she pulled out her Peacock Slashers and swung them at Miss All Sunday.
"Oh my" Miss All Sunday said calmly as she stopped the attack, "princesses shouldn't be so unladylike".
"How dare you do what you did to Igaram" Vivi screamed in hatred.
"Igaram" Miss All Sunday questioned, "ah, you mean Mr. 8".
"You did something to Igaram" Pell asked in fury.
"What are you so anger about" Miss All Sunday asked, "isn't it the same thing as you did to my subordinates".
"Ah" Vivi scream as Miss All Sunday lifted her up and Pell step forward but faltered under a glance from the woman.
"What a joke" Miss All Sunday laughed as she thrust her hand through Vivi's chest.
"Princess" Pell yelled in worry, "damn you, I'm going to turn you into Alabastian Sand".
Pell shifted into his half Falcon form and shot at the woman as she laughed at him. He heard the woman whisper Tres Fleur as three arms appeared on his body, two on his back and one on his chest. The two arms on the shocked mans back wrapped arounds his wings causing him to fall to the ground as the hand on his chest wrapped around his beak.
"Pell" Vivi yelled shocking the man.
"Princess, you're fine" Pell muttered in shock as he noticed no blood on her.
"I was just having a little fun" Miss All Sunday laughed.
"You have a power" Pell questioned.
"Yes, I ate the Hana Hana no Mi" Miss All Sunday replied as he held up her right arm and three more arms sprouted from it, "I can make my body parts grow out like flowers".
"Damn it, I'll avenge Igaram right now" Pell yelled at the woman.
"Really, I'm sorry then" the woman stated with a chuckle, "I really don't have more time to play with you".
"You don't have much time anyway" Pell yelled as he shot forwards towards her, "I'll finish this now".
"You really don't understand" Miss All Sunday told the man as she held her hands crossed, "Seis Fleur".
Two arms sprouted from the ground and grabbed the mans legs, another two sprouted from the middle of the back and grabbed his arms forcing them backwards and the final two sprouted from his upper back and wrapped around the mans neck. Vivi stared at the woman in shock as she seemed to have Pell in a submission move before she whispered Clutch and the man seemed to fold over as cracks could be heard. Vivi went pale as the man spat up blood and his eyes rolled to the back of his head.
"So much for the strongest warrior of the Kingdom" Miss All Sunday said with a chuckle.
"No, Pell" Vivi shouted in shock and terror as her world seemed to be ending.
"Now shall we go" Miss All Sunday asked.
"This can't be happening" Vivi whispered in shock.
"The boss is waiting for you, along with your friends" Miss All Sunday informed the woman, "there at Rain Dinners, in a cage".
With Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, Nami and Smoker
"Sanji expression" Luffy said to Usopp as his eyebrow curled and his hair cover the left side of his face as he pretended to smoke, "Luffy, did you eat all the meat again".
"Be serious" Nami cried as she hit the two boys, "how can you be so relaxed in a situation like this".
"It's not like we can escape" Luffy explained simplify.
"That's why you should be taking this seriously, we could die" Nami yelled with shark like teeth as she turned to Zoro, "and how can you be sleeping".
"What" Zoro grumbled as he opened his eyes, "is it morning already".
"It's already been morning" Nami yelled in annoyance.
"What a feisty little girl" Crocodile laughed as he watched the orange haired navigator.
"You better take this time to compose yourself" the woman yelled at Crocodile, "once we get out of here Luffy will kick your ass".
"Hahaha, you seem to have a lot of trust placed in you as captain, trust" Crocodile laughed, "that is the most useless thing in the world".
"How dare he make fun of us" Nami yelled in frustration as Usopp tapped her shoulder and told her to calm down.
"Crocodile" Vivi yelled as she entered the hidden base escorted by Miss All Sunday.
"Vivi" the Straw Hats yelled in shock.
"Well, hello, Vivi, Princess of Alabasta" Crocodile greeted with a large smile, "no, Miss Wednesday, you have done a wonderful job of escaping my assassins".
"Of course, I'd come from anywhere" Vivi shouted back, "if it means I can watch you die, Mr. 0".
"It's your worthless country that's going to die" Crocodile replied with a serious expression.
"If you weren't here in Alabasta the country will be in peace" Vivi yelled as she escaped Miss All Sunday's grasp and leapt at Crocodile with her peacock slashes being pulled out.
"Wait, Vivi" Luffy yelled from the cage, "unlock this first".
"Peacock String Slasher" Vivi yelled as she swung it forward and cut Crocodile's head from his body.
"What" Usopp yelled in shock.
"It's not over yet" Smoker stated simplify.
"Are you satisfied, Miss Wednesday" Crocodile's voice rang out as he reformed behind Vivi, "if you lived in this country you should know about my Suna Suna no Mi, maybe I should turn you into a mummy".
"No, Vivi" Usopp yelled in shock and disbelief.
"Damn it" Luffy yelled in frustration as he slammed his fist into the cage, "let her go and let me out so I can kill you".
"Sit and stop glaring at me" Crocodile told Vivi as he dropped her to the floor, "it's about time for the party to begin, am I wrong, Miss All Sunday".
"You're correct" Miss All Sunday replied with a smile, "it's past 7".
The Royal Palace
"Chaka-Sama, the King is missing" a guard yelled, "we've searched everywhere but we can't find his Majesty".
"That's is ridiculous" Chaka replied, "is there any chance he could have escaped during the night".
Chaka is a tall, imposing dark skinned man with medium length black hair and a long broad nose resembling that of a jackal. He wears a long, light-green tunic, revealing his muscular chest, and has two belts around his waist: a striped, pale-red and crimson large one, and over it a purple, thinner one. Around his neck he has a necklace consisting of big golden beads, and he wears a dark-green coat draped on his shoulders like a cape. He carries a massive sword, with a blue hilt and sheath, on his right hip.
"No, that's impossible, we guarded the King's room all night" the guard replied with panic laced through his voice, "he couldn't have got out without one of us seeing him".
"Then how did he disappear from his bed chambers" Chaka boomed.
"I don't know, sir" the guard replied.
"It's time to depart the castle" Chaka yelled, "we have to search all over the city".
"Yes sir" the guards yelled as they left the castle.
"Damn it, we need Pell" Chaka muttered in frustration, "searching for people is his forte, but he his scouting in Rainbase right now".
"Chaka-Sama, the King" a guard yelled as the large man turned towards him.
"Did you find him" Chaka demanded as he stared at the guard.
"Yes, well, in a way" the guard stuttered out as he told Chaka what he had found out.
"No way" the large man muttered out in disbelief and shock.
Katorea Town, Rebellion Headquarters
"Kohza-san, please wait, we'll come with you" a rebellion member yelled as a man speed out of the headquarters on a house.
This man was the childhood friend of Nefeltari Vivi and the leader of the Rebellion, Kohza. Kohza is a young blond man that wears purple-tinted glasses and has a scar on his left eye. He wears a blue scarf around his neck, a dark purple jacket that was going all the way down to his ankles, a white shirt with an ornament of some sort hanging on his neck, black pants and a yellow sash around his waist
"Why is this happening so sudden" Kohza mused as he ignored his men's pleas, "have you really sunk this low Cobra".
Port Town Nanohana
"My King" a village screamed in shock, "why would you".
"I have an apology to make" the King announced with group of guards behind him, "I am the one who stole this countries rain".
Cobra is a man of average height. He has a wrinkled face, a tied-off beard, and long, curly, black hair. He wears a green robe with yellow edging, an orange and beige sash around his waist, and a purple coat. He also wears sandals and a necklace.
"And in order to forget about this dance powder controversy" the King told them, "I am going to destroy Nanohana".
"Cobra-Sama" a villager yelled, "what kind of joke is this".
"Your Majesty" another yelled in shock.
"Crush this rotten town and burn it to the ground" the King ordered as his men rushed forwards.
"Hey King, the towns are drying up" a little boy yelled, "cause you're stealing all the rain".
The little boy wears a white turban with orange beads around it. He has a blue cloth around his neck and wears a blue robe with green sleeves. He wears brown belts around his torso where he carries stones. He has a bag that he carries on his back with various weapons, including a hammer, bat, and club.
The villagers gasped in shock as the child stood up to the King all by himself. They looked at the boy in shock and noticed his determination as the King walked forwards, they all watched in horror as Cobra raised his leg and kicked the little boy away from him with a cruel smirk on his face.
"I'll get revenge for everybody" the boy yelled as a lady held him back.
"No, stop" the lady pleaded with the boy before a man on a house broke through the crowd.
"Kohza" the villagers yelled in relief as the man entered the area.
"What the hell" Kohza asked as he glared at Cobra, "do you think you're doing".
"I have come to apologise" the man replied simply.
"Enough with the insults" Kohza yelled.
"I'm the one who dried up this country with dance powder" Cobra stated.
"I told you to shut up" Kohza yelled as two of the King's guards appeared with their blades at his throat, "you filthy piece of shit".
Kohza tried to push past the guards as another man appeared by the King's side with his pistol drawn. The man glared at the King and ignored the guard as he tried to push forward only for the guard to shot Kohza much to the shock and horror of the villagers. A large smile appeared on the King's face as a gallon crashed into the city and Mr. 1 and Miss Doublefinger walked away from the ensuring carnage.
Rainbase
"Hello" a voice called from across the Den Den Mushi.
"Hello" Miss All Sunday replied.
"Can you hear me" the voice asked.
"You're a million, aren't you" Miss All Sunday replied.
"Hey, is this getting through" the voice called again, "I've never used a baby snail like this".
"What is it" Miss All Sunday asked with a small smile.
"Oh, okay, I'll just talk like this" the voice replied.
"Hey, spit it out already" Crocodile growled in displeasure, "what happened".
"Oh, that voice, I've heard it before" the voice replied, "welcome sir, to the shitty restaurant".
"Shitty restaurant" Crocodile muttered in realisation.
"Oh good, you remember" the man replied.
"Who the hell are you" Crocodile asked in frustration.
"Me, I am Mr. Prince" the man told Crocodile.
"I see Mr. Prince" Crocodile stated, "and where are you".
"Now, now, I can't tell you that" Mr. Prince replied, "if I do that you'll come and kill me".
"I'll kill you" Crocodile growled out at the mocking man as he heard a gunshot.
"Hello, what should I do with this weirdo" a different man asked.
"Where are you" Crocodile asked with a smug smirk.
"I'm at the front gate of the casino called Rain Dinners" the man on the Den Den Mushi told Crocodile.
"Kuhahaha" Crocodile laughed, "fine, lets go to the front gate".
"Are you sure that's wise" Miss All Sunday asked, "the millions still don't know who their boss is".
"I'm just going their to see what's happening in front of my casino" Crocodile replied with a smug smile.
Crocodile gave the Straw Hat Pirates and Marine Captain Smoker one final look before knocking out Vivi and opening up a hole in the wall t flood the room. He smiled at the small group as he left them to their death and began to walk towards the commotion at the front of his casino.
The Straw Hats and Smoker looked on in shock as the Bananawanis stared to leave their tank of water and enter the underground room, including the one that Crocodile had given the key to their cage to earlier. The Bananawanis stared to advance towards Vivi as the Straw Hats called out to her and she began to slowly get up.
With Crocodile
"What the hell happened here" Crocodile asked in shock as he looked at his bleeding and unconscious millions.
"If we add what Pell the Falcon did to our Millions we no longer have anymore in Rainbase" Miss All Sunday informed Crocodile.
"Hey, what happened" Crocodile asked a barely conscious million.
"The guy, he called himself, Mr. Prince" the million replied with sharp breathes and a stutter.
"Where did he go" Crocodile demanded in frustration.
"He just left" the million replied as he raised his arm, "towards the south, through the town".
"Just now" Crocodile muttered as he looked up and noticed a strange figure running away from the scene, "piece of shit, don't think you can get away from me".
"Why don't you just let him go" Miss All Sunday asked.
"Be silent, he killed all of my employees" Crocodile growled in annoyance, "he will not humiliate me like this".
Miss All Sunday watched as Crocodile's bottom half turned to sand and he speed off in the direction that Mr. Prince was fleeing in. As the Shichibukai left her sight she heard an explosion behind her and turned around in shock as the bridge connecting Rain Dinners to Rain Base collapsed into the water below.
With Vivi
The Princess of Alabasta had escaped from the Bananawani and was fleeing through the casino as the bridge collapsed. She stopped in shock as panic filled the casino and people began to rush by her.
"No, I can't get out" Vivi cried.
"Don't think of it like that, think of it as Baroque Works can't get back in" Sanji told her as he sat in front of a slot machine, "this was all according to plan".
"Sanji" Vivi cried in shock and happiness.
"Chopper's acting as a decoy" Sanji told her, "so lets hurry, all you need to tell me is where to go, princess".
With Luffy, Nami, Zoro and Smoker
"So, we can't cut out way out" Usopp pleaded hysterically as the water rose to his knees, "we're all going to die".
"How can you be so calm" Nami asked Smoker as he sat on the bench with his legs crossed.
"How much do you know of Crocodile's targets" Smoker questioned as he noticed the confused looks on the Straw Hat pirates faces, "that woman who was with him, is an outlaw that has been on the run for more than twenty years and has a bounty on her head for over seventy million beli".
"Seventy Million beli" Usopp muttered in shock and fear.
"Almost as big as Crocodile's" Nami muttered.
"With the pair of them joining forces this is no longer just a takeover of a nation" Smoker informed then, "if we don't stop this now, this will become a problem for the whole world".
"Anti-Matter Kick Course" Sanji yelled as he entered the basement and kicked the Bananawani closest to the cage into the air.
"Hey" Sanji stated as he took a drag on his cigarette, "were you waiting".
"Sanji" Nami, Usopp and Luffy called out.
"Hurry up and do something you perverted chef" Zoro yelled as more Bananawanis entered the basement.
"The third on that entered has the key" Smoker stated as the pirates looked at him in shock, "the growl is the same one that ate the key".
Sanji smirked at the Marine Captain as he rushed toward the gator, he once again unleashed his Anti-Matter Kick Course on the Bananawani. As the Bananawani's back bend around Sanji's foot the giant gator spat out a large white ball that shocked the group. As Sanji went to inspect the ball more of the Bananawanis surrounded the Straw Hats cook. Smoker watched on in interest as the blonde pirate was easily dispatching the beasts.
"Freedom" Mr. 3 yelled as he broke out of the white ball, "Ahahaha, I survived, I thought I was a goner".
"We don't need a key" Usopp muttered as he looked at the strange man, "Sanji, force him to get us out of here".
It wasn't long before a battered and bleeding Mr. 3 was pushing a duplicate key into the seastone cage and opening it up for the pirates and Smoker to escape. As the Straw Hats and Smoker escaped the cage the walls surrounding the basement finally collapsed due to all the fighting and flooded the basement. Luffy quickly grabbed Smoker and followed his crew out of the opening and up to the City.
"Straw Hat why did you save me" Smoker asked as he raised his weapon to Luffy's head.
"Because you would have died" Luffy replied nonchalantly.
"Then I guess you don't have any complaints about me fulfilling my duties" Smoker asked as he stared at Luffy.
"This is what we get for saving a stupid Marine" Sanji grumbled in distaste.
"Go now" Smoker told them as he looked over the crew, "only this one time, I will let you leave".
"Heh, alright Smokey" Luffy replied as he began to run with the crew and Vivi following him.
"The next time we meet you're a dead man" Smoker yelled, "remember that Straw Hat Luffy".
The crew ran with the Princess in the direction that they left eyelashes, that was where they believed they would meet Chopper. As they fled from the Marines they came across a strange sight, their little doctor was sitting on the head of a large crab with eyelashes behind him. Luffy and Usopp looked at the crab with a twinkle in their eyes as they all jumped on the crab and began to take off towards the capital of Alabasta.
As the crab rushed across the desert Luffy felt his Kenbunshoku Haki flare up and warn him about an incoming threat. He looked out at Rainbase and noticed an angry Crocodile closing in one them as he stretched his arm out with sand. The hook on Crocodile's hand wrapped around Vivi's waist as the Princess screamed in terror. Luffy quickly threw the Princess into Zoro and wrapped his arm around the hook as it began to pull back towards the infuriated Shichibukai.
"Luffy" Nami screamed in fear.
"Don't worry" Luffy yelled at them, "Zoro, you're in charge, so go on ahead without me and I'll meet you guys later".
The Straw Hatted Boy flipped off the hook and landed on his feet across from Crocodile and Miss All Sunday. He stared at the pair as Miss All Sunday giggled at him and Crocodile was glaring a hole through him.
"I think your games have gone on long enough Straw Hat Luffy" Crocodile growled.
