Chapter 38: Sake Bombing!

"What is this?" Zoro asked himself, annoyed. He inspected the dinosaur that stood in front of him, not moving.

"Is it edible?"

~.~

"What a great view!" Lucy said, relaxed as she sat on the head of the dinosaur with a long neck. She absorbed the view with a sense of appreciation and realism.

"Be careful!" Vivi yelled up. "Even if it's tame, it's still a dinosaur!"

"Don't worry! This guy's vegetarian," Lucy shouted down. "Besides, I don't think he's seen me yet." That was when the dinosaur propped his head, causing Lucy to go aero, and the dinosaur to pop her into his mouth. Vivi let out a scream when she heard it go 'gulp'. Vivi froze when she heard the sound of slicing and Lucy falling out of a chopped neck of the dinosaur. She was in awe and fear as she studied the giant before her. She listened as she heard the giant laugh a heartful laugh.

"What a cheerful person you are," the giant said as he held Lucy in his palm. "I haven't met someone like you for a long time!"

"Whoa! A giant!" Lucy exlcaimed as she sat on its palm. He laughed.

"I am Dorry, the greatest warrior of Elbaf!" he exclaimed. "I'd like to ask all of you to visit my house."

Some Time Later...

"This meat is good, Mr. Giant," Lucy said. He laughed again.

"Your bento is good, too," he said as he ate the bento. "But it's just too small."

"It must be good, or I'll beat you up!" Lucy exlcaimed. Dorry laughed.

"You are a very interesting person!" Dorry complimented.

"It looks like they've been friends for years," Vivi said, sweat-dropping. Galu merely sipped his cup that was hung around his neck, and gave Vivi a curious look.

"By the way, why're you alone?" Lucy questioned, stuffing more dinosaur meat into her mouth. "Don't you have a village or something?"

"I have a village, too. It's called Elbaf, and it's located somewhere on the Grand Line," he said. "But we have a rule in our village." Dorry explained the rule of Elbaf, and how the two giants fight so the righteous one can go home.

"However it's been a hundred years, and we still haven't found the result!" Dorry exclaimed with a laugh.

"You fought a hundred years ago?" Lucy said, her face expressing shock.

"Don't panic; our lifespan is three times greater than a human's," Dorry said, laughing.

"Still, you should've forgotten about the cause by now!" Vivi exclaimed. "What will you get from this fight? It's just another name for murder!" A volcano stopped their conversation as Dorry stood.

"I must be going now," he said. "It's fighting time again. A volcano eruption is the signal to start the fight." Vivi was not afraid voice her protests, but Lucy held her hand out to her to signal to stop.

"This is no longer about what solving their conflict," Lucy said.

"That's right," Dorry said. "It's about pride. I've forgotten what caused this fight." With that, Dorry's battle with the other giant commenced. Lucy laid back on the grass as she watched the battle with awe. In the end, they both fell to the ground, the fight ending in a tie. The two giants laughed together and seemed to be having a small conversation. When Dorry returned, he had sake in his hands. He said he got some from the other giant 'Brogy', who had gotten it from guests: a long-nosed man and orangette girl. Lucy explained that they were part of her crew.

"Ano, Mister Dorry," Vivi said. "You said it would take a year for the log post to ready, right?" Dorry nodded and explained how the humans who came to Little Garden died differently when waiting a year, and how some would even try to attack the two giants.

"What am I going to do to survive for one year?" Vivi asked as she buried her face in her hands. "I won't know what will become of my country by that time!"

"One year? That's too much," Lucy said. "Isn't there any other way?"

"There is an eternal post here on Little Garden that will guide you to Little Garden, but that's what us giants are fighting for," Dorry said. "Are you going to try to take it from me?"

"No, because we don't want to go there," Lucy explained. "We have to get to the next island."

"If we can't get to Alabasta, it will mean nothing," Vivi said, looking at the ground. Dorry laughed and took a swig of his sake.

"Why not take a risk, then?" he suggested. "If you're lucky, you'll get there!" Lucy joined in the laughter.

"That's true. Why don't I do that, then? We'll eventually get there!"

"You're really funny!"

"Ano..." Vivi murmured, sweat-dropping again. Then Vivi, Galu, and Lucy all looked at Dorry in shock when an exploding noise was heard.

"The sake exploded!" Lucy exclaimed in shock. Dorry fell back with a large thud.

"MISTER GIANT!"

"MISTER DORRY!"

Lucy climbed up onto his chest and looked at him. "Are you okay? Why did the sake explode? Is this sake from our ship?"

"The sake exploded inside the body! What a dirty trick!" Vivi exclaimed. "Did that other giant put the bomb in the sake?" Lucy glared at Vivi.

"What are you talking about? They've been fighting for a hundred years!" Lucy spat. "Why would he do that now?"

"Then who was it?" Vivi questioned. They were so heated in the conversation, they didn't notice Dorry sit up.

"It must've been you!" Dorry yelled. He wore a crazed look in his eyes. He let out a cough.

"This is not Brogy's work," Dorry said. "We are proud warriors of Elbaf. Aside from you, I suspect no one else." Lucy shot Dorry a glare.

"Let's get out of here!" Vivi demanded. "He won't listen to anything we say!"

"It's useless to run now," Lucy said. She handed Vivi her straw hat. "Will you hold onto this, and get out of the way?"

"You want to fight him? Are you crazy?" Vivi interrogated. "The size difference is huge!"

"Sorry mister," Lucy said. She pulled her hair into a ponytail so it wouldn't get in the way and cracked her knuckles. "It seems I have to put you to sleep." A suspenseful silence loomed over, until Vivi broke the ice.

"Listen to me, Mister Dorry! We know nothing about the exploding sake!" she shouted desperately. "So, don't fight! If you don't rest, your condition will only get worse!" Alas, her desperate pleas were ignored by the two adventurers, for they were getting into their stances.

"You really got me mad!" Dorry exclaimed. "You used a dirty trick against me!" Dorry charged and Lucy jumped to the air. Dorry charged his sword at her, but she dodged and used her rubber powers to stretch her arms and grab onto Dorry's arm. She flew in front of him.

"Rubber Pistol!" Unfortunately, she wasn't given the chance to attack, for Dorry used his shield to knock her to the ground. Before she stopped skidding along the ground, she grabbed ahold of a tree and flew to it, dodging a blow from Dorry's large sword. Lucy bended the tree as she flew past it and suddenly stopped. She muttered an apology before continuing.

"Rubber Rocket!" she exclaimed as she rammed into his chest with amazing strength. He cocked his head back with blood spilling from his mouth. When Lucy was looming back to the ground, Dorry stomped his foot, crushing her between his oversized shoe and the cold ground below. Dorry panted as he stood stubbornly.

"MISS LUCY!" Vivi yelled.

"I...underestimated you," he said, his knees hitting the ground. "A person with a devil fruit...but...I believe there is something more to her than that..." he collapsed finally, his foot shifting, allowing Lucy to have air again. She sat up, covering all of her features. Vivi rushed to Lucy.

"Miss Lucy!" she yelled, running to her. "Are you okay?"

"How is he?" Lucy asked, referring to Dorry.

"I think he's okay," Vivi said. "But if you didn't do that, he just would've continued."

Lucy placed her hat on her head, "I'm very upset about this. That other giant didn't do this, but my friends would never do this, either! There must be someone else on this island." It was then she had an achingly familiar pain spike up in her head. It was all too familiar. Her eyesight began to fade. Black began to seep into her vision. The pain of brain cells destroying made Lucy want to scream at the top of her lungs. Everything turned blurry and she started seeing two of everything. The black completely consumed her eyesight as she fell into unconsciousness. A thin white line was drawn with lightning speed in the middle of the black. The white line soon completely flashed over the black, but soon the black returned, indicating this wouldn't be a visual vision, but a vision that would require her to listen to the words that played into her mind. She soon heard the voices of her vision.

You are back so soon, Mister Five?

You really are skilled to build a house in the middle of the forest. However, let me tell you something. This job is still ours, so you better not get involved.

Because we won't lose again!

Lose? I don't think so. You're just weak!

What did you say?

We just underestimated them, that's all! We didn't know the pirates were protecting the princess!

You didn't know? What a lame excuse you have. Remember that we are professionals. If we lose and let our enemies live, it means that our organization would be revealed to the world. So, when we get an order, we have to complete it! However, since you came here, I will give thirty percent of the work to you. If you won't accept this job, I will erase you two from the world right now.

...!

Mister Five, Miss Valentine, you don't have to be so formal about it. Here, have some tea. This is a very special occasion because on this island, we have another big job, too. I thought you saw that already.

A job?

I should thank the both of you for giving me the chance to come to this island. Here, look at this wanted list. I was surprised at first. This is a list from a hundred years ago, when the Giant Pirates were causing turmoil all around the world. The leaders of this pirate group are those two giants that live on this island. They were known as "Green Giant Dorry" and "Red Giant Brogy", but that's history. Right now, both of them are living here on this island. The marines still want them. Each of them are one hundred million Berri. In total, two hundred million Berri.

Two hundred million Berri!

Do you realize how huge this job is? If we can accomplish this job and get two hundred million Berri, we will all get promotions.

So that's why you asked me to put the bomb in the sake.

That's right. If we can't use trickery, we can't beat them. As long as you follow my orders, everything should turn out fine. If you know how to adapt your strategy, you can accomplish everything.

The dark was gone in a flash, and her eyes were wide open. As soon as she woke, the volcano erupted. Dorry got up to leave.

"Wait, don't go!" Vivi pleaded. "You're seriously injured! If you don't rest, you'll die!"

"I am a warrior, don't worry," he said. He let out a few coughs. "I at least have to fight in the honor of Elbaf."

~.~

Congratulations! You've seen the process of Lucy's visions! Anyways, sorry I didn't update yesterday, I accidentally deleted all but around two hundred words of my work, so I couldn't get it up by that night. I again apologize. Anyway, I got my grade back on the final, and I got the grade I expected from myself: 72%. Despite that, I've somehow been able to still make it to Geometry. How, I don't know. Peace out viewers!
