Chapter 25: Regroup Before Enies Lobby
The group that as on the Puffing Tom fought their way to the back of the train. Thankfully it didn't take too long.
They waited for the Rocket Man, which they knew was coming.
It sped towards them.
"How exactly are we going to get board exactly?" asked CereCere.
"We'll wing it." Said Sailor Uranus.
"That's not a very good answer." Said CereCere.
However on the Rocket Man they noticed the Train Cars.
"Great there's train cars up ahead." Said Zoro.
"You know if there's train cars up ahead that's not a good sign." Muttered Nami with a sweat drop.
That was when they saw a garnet colored light.
They quickly realized what the light was.
"That's Setsuna." Said Nami.
"How are they going to get on board?" asked Chopper.
"I have no idea." Sighed Nami.
And so later they managed to get on board.
Just don't ask how they did.
"I'm never doing anything like that again!" said Usopp shaking.
"We got on board didn't we?" asked Sailor Uranus.
"He is definitely somehow relegated to Luffy…" thought Sanji with a sweat drop.
"So you're Uranus and Neptune…." Said Zoro.
"Yeah we are." Said Sailor Uranus.
Both of them de-transformed.
However the Straw Hats were father more interested in Sabo than Koala.
She did understood why, after all Sabo was obsessed with saving Luffy.
"I guess I should explain why I was obsessed with rescuing Luffy." Said Sabo, "Well… I'm his brother…"
"Wait… he has another brother?" asked Nami who then face palmed, "Of course he didn't tell us."
"Well the reason why he didn't you tell is completely different than when he didn't tell you about Ace." Said Sabo.
"You mean it just didn't cross his mind?" asked Usopp.
Sabo took a breath.
"He thought I was dead." Said Sabo.
"What?" asked Sanji.
"Why didn't you tell him you were alive?" asked Usopp.
"Well the reason why he thought I was dead was that I tried to run away in a boat that was hit by a canon. I was survived but I had amnesias."
"How did you get them back?" asked Sanji.
"Side effect of awakening my powers as Sailor Uranus." Said Sabo with a shrug.
"Now that's out of the way there's something else we need to talk about." Said CereCere.
The four looked at Nami and Zoro.
"We figured out why we lived." Said CereCere.
They took out their transformation wands.
"We're Sailor Senshi too." Said VesVes.
"It's true." said Setsuna.
"Pallas Asteroid Power! Make-Up!" called out PallaPalla showing off her transformation.
"Seriously?" asked JunJun.
"One of us had to transform to prove it." Said Sailor Pallas turning back.
"Well that is a good point…" said CereCere with a sweat drop.
"Okay… this is weird." Said Nami.
"We should also talk about Robin." Said Setsuna.
"There is a lot to unpack." Sighed Luna.
"This has to with the thing you brought a while back isn't it?" asked Usopp.
"What do you mean?" asked Robin.
Nami and Usopp brought up the conation they had a while back… finally revealing it to Robin.
"Oh yeah… that is something we talked about…" said Zoro.
Nami whacked him in the head good.
"Though it's a bit more complicated…" said Luna.
"While your past life was associated with the Sailor Senshi he wasn't one… he was something similar." Said Artemis.
"And in this life I am one." Said Robin.
"It might have something to do with the weird… gender bending." Said Usopp.
"It might…" said Setsuna.
"But that doesn't explain about Koala or Nami." Pointed out Chopper.
"It could because Minako couldn't be reborn as a man due to the association with Venus." Said Artemis.
"And Michiru was the femme in the relationship so that might explain it." Said Sabo.
Koala gave her boy friend a good whack on the head.
"What does that mean?" asked Chopper.
"It means we were Lesbians in a past life!" said Sabo giving the thumbs up.
Koala began to stretch her boyfriend's face.
"I told you not to tell them that way!" she muttered.
This just made everyone sweat drop.
"Is anything else we need to talk about?" asked Luna.
PallaPalla was about to bring up something.
"We'll ask when Luffy's back." Said CereCere to her sisters.
The other three nodded.
Setsuna realized what they were talking about.
"wait… I do have something to ask… can anyone help us with our problem." Said JunJun.
"What problem?" asked Nami.
"We haven't figured out our powers yet." Said VesVes.
"What?" asked Luna.
"Yeah… when we were fighting earlier we couldn't figure it out." Said JunJun.
"CereCere did… but the rest of us…" said PallaPalla.
"If we have to transform during the fight we'll help you." Said Setsuna.
"Do you think we'll have to transform during the fight?" asked Nami.
"Considering hat we've done through out the fight…" said Sanji.
"We transformed several times today." Pointed out Usopp.
"Good point." Said Nami with a sweat drop.
They heard a cough they turned to where it came from it was the members of the Franky Family and the three Foremen.
"So… how weird is the situation?" asked Paulie.
"On a scale of one to ten… eleven." Said Sabo.
Thus just made everyone sweat drop.
"It can't be that that weird can it?" asked Lulu.
"We're dealing with reincarnation, gender bending, magical objects, accident civilizations and not just pre-the great cataclysm..." listed off Sabo.
"Can't forget the talking cats." Pointed out Artemis wanting to get in on the fun.
Luna gave him a light whack for that.
"I HATE TO BE THAT PERSON… WHAT IS THE GREAT CATACLYSM?" asked Tilestone.
"Okay… this is awkward…" said Kiwi.
"What's that the biggest deal a year ago?" asked VesVes.
"The great cataclysm happened over 5,000 years ago. An event that completely changed the world. Land used to be in the form of 7 continents. Then the Great Cataclysm happened and gave us the world that is here today." Explained Robin.
"Not only are there many surviving things that were preserved before then like photos and documents but surviving buildings or buildings rebuilt." Said Setsuna.
"The most famous being the Golden Towers." Said Robin.
"The golden towers?" asked VesVes as this was something that didn't exist before.
"They're a set of two towers. The ordinals were once towers holding a bridge called the Golden Gate Bridge." Explained Robin.
"Oh yeah… it was that really famous bridge in America." Said PallaPalla.
"The two towers needed in very different parts of the world." Said Robin, "One ended up in the middle of North Blue while the other in in the south Eastern area of the West Blue." Explained Robin.
"Places that were once part of the same town were not thousands of miles apart and vice verse." Explained Setsuna, "And vice versa."
"Okay… so now that everyone's caught up… all of your are reincarnations from over 5000 years ago…" said Paulie, "And all of you used to be women expect for Nico Robin…"
The straw hats along with Sabo and Koala weren't sure how to respond to it.
"And you four are somehow apart of it." Said Paulie, "Which you seem to be taking rather well."
"Eh… we lost all sense of normality when we awakened an evil queen sealed away in a mirror from her sleep." Said VesVes with a shrug.
"By the way said evil queen… they fought against her in their past lives…" said JunJun.
There was an awkward silence.
"What have we gotten into?" asked Paulie.
"I don't know… but it's pretty cool." Admitted Kiwi.
Meanwhile on the Puffing Tom.
"Great…" muttered Franky, "We're almost there."
"It's going to be fine." Said Luffy.
Franky looked at Luffy.
"I know they'll save us." Said Luffy giving a big grin.
The governed officials showed up it escort them.
Meanwhile the Rocket Man continued on it's journey.
As it did Sabo pulled Robin aside.
"I have an idea… but its pretty crazy." Said Sabo, "And it can only work with you."
"What is it?" asked Robin.
Right now she wanted to the person who loved most of all, of course she'd be willing to do a crazy idea.
"Okay… I guess I should have known you'd say considering the circumstances." Said Sabo.
He explained the plan.
Not too long later the others were getting ready to approach Enies Lobby.
"All right! Is everyone ready?" asked Zoro.
They noticed Sabo and Robin were nowhere to be found.
"Oh no… you have go to be kidding me"! yelled Koala.
"Why would Robin join in?" asked Usopp.
"Love does crazy things to people." Sighed Nami somehow sensing that was the reason.
"You should really prepare for making land even if they're not here." Called out Kokoro from her position.
On the roof of the roof o the seatrain they got close to the island.
"We're close enough!" said Robin.
She held out her hand and many more hand bloomed from the hand.
Sabo hung onto her as they swung using a fence. Both of them landed on their feet to the confusion of the Marines and Government agents.
"So tell me where did they take the prisoners?" asked Sabo.
None of them wanted to the answer.
"Don't worry we'll get the answers out of you." Said Robin glaring at them.
And so the attack on Enies Lobby began. Only time will tell how it would end, but the beginning was not looking good for the World Government that's for sure.
Next Time: The Raid on Enies Lobby begins. What will happen? How many Marines and Government Agents will Robin and Sabo beat up? Will Usopp make some new friends? Find out next time!
