A.n I own Nothing

So I assume some of you have wondered if this story was abandoned and considering I haven't updated for a very long time I can see how people would come to that conclusion. I assure you I have no intention of abandoning this story. I have had a lot going on in my life the last 12 months and it has been one non-stop year of bad events that left me in a very bad place and in no way, shape, or form to write as I required preprofessional help.

I did my best to Update Lord of the Castle, mainly because the help I sought recommended I focus on 1 story to write while I recover. I chose that one because it was a little more lighthearted than this story. I want everyone to know I am now well on the road to recovery and while updates to this story will still be slow and scattered I have no intention of ever abandoning this fic or stop writing.

Thank you all for understanding and your patience.

As Always, Please Review.


Connor, Ezio, and Chimeney continued down the secret passageway, finally, they hit a dead end. Fortunately, there was a leaver on the sidewall and once Ezio pulled it the wall in front of the opened up to reveal a winding staircase.

The two children looked around. Chimeney ran over to a window to look outside. The ocean was very close now and almost eye level. Connor looked up the stairs. While Ezio leaned against the opening of the hidden door, watching both children intently.

"So which way now?" Connor asked as he looked back at Ezio.

Ezio didn't respond, he just seemed to stare off into space. Connor and Chimeney waited a few moments but when the older man didn't answer, Connor opened his mouth to speak again but Ezio cut him off.

"This way" Ezio answered and pointed down the stairs "I can hear them further down,"

Connor looked at Ezio confused. He and Chimeney listened, but the spiral staircase was quiet. They couldn't even hear the sounds of the ocean let alone decent any signs that Spandam and Robin passed through here.

"I don't hear anything," he said.

"Me either," Chimeney agreed.

Ezio smiled "That is because you're only listening with your ears,"

"What's that mean?" Connor asked confused.

"All in good time," Ezio responded as he started to head down the stairs. "Come on, we have a Belladonna to save,"

The two children followed Ezio down the stairs at a hurried pace, there wasn't time to be stealthy, however, despite this Ezio didn't make a sound in any of his movements. Soon

"Wait," Ezio whispered. As he grabbed both children by the scuff of their clothes, preventing them from going any further.

Connor and Chimeney stopped and were about to protest however voices filled the corridor.

"BUHAHAHA isn't this great, those idiot pirates are wandering around like headless chooks," Spandams voice filled the area.

"You don't know what Luffy and the others are capable of," Robin defended.

"Please there to busy trying to get those keys," Spandam mocked "Besides even if they do find their way through the Tower, the rest of CP9 will kill them before they can even fight back,"

"Luffy will come," Robin insisted "he's not one to give up,"

"Then I will kill him," Lucci said coldly "After all last time we met I was under orders to use non-lethal force. This time, Straw Hat has no such luxury,"

"Here that your stupid woman, Straw Hats time is limited. So, go ahead, believe that your pathetic worthless, insignificant pirate crew can save you, it will make me saviour the look on your face when they die in front of you. When you realise you got them killed, your so-called friends' blood will be on your hands because it will all be your fault,"

"Robin," Connor whispered.

The moment the words had passed his lips, Ezio suddenly grabbed him and pulled both Connor and Chimeney into his body, and covered their mouths with his hands. Lucci glanced over his shoulder with narrowed eyes. He didn't see anything but a creepy sadistic smile formed on his face. He turned back to keep watch

"Ah-ha, the doors open. Come on you foolish woman, let's go. I've got a schedule to keep," Spandam said.

Once a loud thud echoed throughout the hall Ezio let both children go and looked around the corner. Spandam, Lucci, and Robin were gone.

"What was that for?" Chimeney asked.

"I was trying to hide you, I believe Lucci heard your whisper,"

"What now?" Connor asked.

"Doesn't matter, what matters is he knows we're following him,"

"Then…why didn't he do anything?" Connor asked.

"I can only guess. Come, let's not lose them," Ezio said and he continued down the stairs.

The stairs led to a darkened storage cellar, the somewhat large square room would not appear out of place and could easily be mistaken for a basement or a storage area; given the number of boxes and crates stacked in the corner.

However, that was not the case with this cellar. This cellar housed a very large and distinctive metal door. It was quite big and built into the wall of the Tower of Justice. There were no handles on the door and it appeared to be no way to open it. Next to the door was an electronic panel. But there was no sign of Lucci, Spandam, or Robin.

"Looks like we've hit a dead-end," Ezio commented.

"So, they went in here," Connor said as he looked at the massive door in front of him "How are we going to follow them?

"There's a keyhole on this control looking thingy over here," Chimeney provided. She was hanging off a control pad next to the door that she had climbed on. "But that man probably has it with him,"

Ezio started at the door contemplating what to do next. He might be able to open the door by picking the lock on the panel with his hidden blade, however, if he did

Conner looked up at Ezio. "Now what?" he asked, "Do we go after them?"

Ezio was more worried about Connor and Chimeney, if he went after Spandam right away, then a fight would most certainly break out between him and Lucci, Ezio was highly confident in his abilities and fully believed he could defeat the CP9s best agent. However, he could not guarantee the children safety and he was sure that Lucci would not hesitate to kill both children should they approach him.

"I think we should find your captain first," Ezio finally decided.

Ezio ushered the two children out of the cellar and they started walking back up the stairs from which they came. As they walked up Chimeney stopped to look out the window as something caught her attention. But Ezio and Connor kept walking.

"Are we going to search this whole tower for Luffy?" Connor asked.

"No. That would take too much time," Ezio answered.

"But how will we find him? This place is huge plus Luffy ran off, he could be anywhere by now,"

"There he is," Chimeney announced and pointed out the window she was looking out of.

Both Ezio and Connor stopped walking and turned to look back down the stairs at the girl. They walked over and looked out the window to get a good view of the gates of Justice and the passable whirlpool filled sea that separated the tower from the gates. They're not too far offshore was Luffy. He was in the water trying to stay afloat but failing.

"Merda," Ezio hissed. Without warning he jumped through the window, using his arms to protect his face from the glass. He landed on a concrete deck just below and ran to the edge. However, when he saw how fast the currents were raging, he hesitated to jump in.

Ezio was a good swimmer but even he would not survive the whirlpools.

In the moment of hesitation, Chimeney dashed past him and dove into the sea before Ezio could stop her. Connor, who had also jumped out of the window ran over to Ezio and looked at the rampaging water with concerned and worried eyes.

A moment later Chimeney head broke the water, she was on her back and kicking towards the shore with Luffy. Connor breathed a sigh of relief and Ezio just stared at the girl in surprise. Despite her small size and age, the rampaging currents and force of the whirlpools weren't bothering her at all; Chimeney moved through the water like they weren't even there.

Once the girl was close enough to shore, Ezio and Connor pulled her and Luffy back onto dry land. Luffy was panting heavily and coughing up water with Connor patting him on the back to help. Ezio moved over to Chimeney.

"Little girl, how did you do that?" Ezio asked.

"Do what?" Chimeney asked.

"Swim through those currents,"

"Oh that, I've always been a strong swimmer. My Grandma said it's because I'm special," Chimeney smiled.

"But those whirlpools…the currents are so strong that they should have dragged you down and ripped you apart," Ezio argued.

"They weren't that strong," Chimeney claimed as she wrung out her pigtails and cloths "In fact I barely even noticed them,"

Luffy coughed and hacked up water, he breathed in heavily until he calmed down enough to

"Thanks for that Chimeney," Luffy said gratefully.

"Your welcome," the little girl smiled. It was then that Luffy noticed Ezio standing a few steps away from them.

"Huh, you're that guy from the tower," Luffy stated "The not bad guy,"

"Si, I'm helping you now, in exchange for passage off this island," Ezio said cheerily.

"Mmm…okay," Luffy agreed. Ezio blinked, he had expected Luffy to add on some conditions or argue, not flat out agree right away.

"Luffy, we found where Robin went," Connor said urgently.

"Really? Where is she?" Luffy demanded.

Before anyone could answer the side of the Tower of Justice suddenly burst open, the four of them whipped around to see a massive hairy giant-sized monster with a familiar pink hat crash through the side of the tower.

It gave off a very pain-filled moan that sounded like it was trying to say something.

"What the hell is that thing?" Luffy panicked.

Ezio's eyes suddenly turned yellow, he had no idea what this creature was and he was fully prepared to fight it if it came down to it.

"Wait…blue?" he gasped in surprise. He then focused his senses on the creature to get a feel for it and he immediately froze up. "Hang on is that..." Ezio didn't get to finish as the giant monster slammed one of its massive arms into the side of the tower of Justice, knocking away a huge chunk of the wall and sending it flying towards where Luffy and the others were standing.

"Look out," Ezio cried. He grabbed Connor and Chimeney and tackled them away from the falling debris. It missed them but not by much. Luffy punched some of the larger debris away into smaller harmless peoples.

"Is everyone okay?" Luffy asked urgently, looking over at the two children.

"We're fine," Connor announced and he looked up at Ezio "thank you,"

"My pleasure," Ezio said and he let the children up, before standing up himself. He then turned back to focus on the monster who had thankfully started heading away from the group and the tower.

"Look its Big Brother Franky," Chimeney claimed. She pointed to something very small in the sky.

"Where?" Luffy asked as he franticly looked around in the sky for Franky, but he couldn't see him. Ezio and Connor also looked at the spot she was pointed but could not see anything either.

"There," Chimeney claimed. Still pointing at the same spot "He's got some big-mouthed ball with him,"

"Big mouthed ball…you mean that Cp9 agent with the zipper mouth?" Connor asked.

"Mm, I don't know if he's a bad guy or not. But he does have a zipper mouth," Chimeney claimed.

"You must have incredible eyes to see something so small and so far, away," Ezio complimented.

"Is pidgin guy with him?" Luffy asked.

"no,"

"Aw well, I guess Franky will take care of Zipper man then," Luffy decided "I gotta find Robin first,"

"We saw Robin go into a secret area," Connor offered helpfully.

"You did? Where?" Luffy demanded.

"Follow me, I shall show you," Ezio said and he ran back inside the Tower of Justice.

Luffy followed Ezio with the two children behind the rubber captain. He led them back down the stairs to where they had found the large heavy door that Spandam had taken Robin through.

"In here," Ezio said when they got to the storage area. Luffy spied the door immediately and ran up to it.

"Robin was taken through here?" he asked.

"Yes, I thought it would be best to inform you or one of your crew before proceeding," Ezio claimed.

"Well let's get this thing opened then," Luffy said.

Ezio nodded and walked over to the control panel. "I think I can break this lock, give me a moment to…" he started to trail off as he, Connor, and Chimeney noticed Luffy was doing something odd.

Luffy's rubber body began to grow and expand to fill the room. The other three occupants moved out of the way watching in awe. Once Luffy was ready he made quick work of the door by punching it with a massive fist. The blow had so much force behind it that the big heavy door shattered and chunks of it scattered about around the entrance of the tunnel.

"Right let's go," Luffy said and he started to walk down the corridor. Ezio, Connor, and Chimeney stared at him in shock.

"Luffy…what was that?" Connor asked tentatively.

"Just a new move I thought of on the way here," Luffy responded with a smile. He then noticed that everyone seemed bigger somehow "Hey Connor, when did you get so big?"

"I didn't, Luffy…your um…" Connor tired but trailed off.

"Your tiny!" Chimeney yelled. It was true, Luffy had shrunk to a small size that he didn't even come up to Chimeneys knee "How did you get so small?"

"Hmm?" Luffy looked over himself, taking in his new form "Must be a side effect, ah well no time to worry about that now, let's go,"

"Had you waited a moment I probably could have tried picking the lock," Ezio offered.

"Yeah but that would have taken to long, my way was easier," Luffy responded

"Luffy where in the world did you get the idea to do…well whatever it is you just did?" Connor asked.

"Hm? Oh, I saw a man filling balloons up with air and handing them out to passing kids, back in water 7" Luffy smiled "I thought since Balloons were made of rubber then I could do it too,"

"A balloon stands? Really?" Ezio asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah, do you have something against balloons?"

"Nope, not a thing," Ezio answered "by the way, I would be hesitant to put these children in danger. Perhaps it would be safer if they went back to collect your crew, that way they can bring the keys here as quickly as possible,"

"That's a good idea," Luffy agreed "You guys do that, I'm going on ahead," Luffy's tiny form then started running down the corridor after Spandam.


With Lucci, Robin and Spandam

Further down the corridor, Spandam was dragging to Robin about the promotion he will get for capturing her and the hell that awaited her in Impel Down. Robin did her best to try not to think about it, but she still hoped the Straw hats would come for her but so far no one had. Behind Robin was Lucci, he was walking silently with a smile on his face.

Spandam was in the middle of a rant about going down in history about being the greatest Marine hero ever…even better than some Vice Admiral named Garp when a loud sound echoed throughout the tunnel. It sounded like something hitting a very large and heavy metal object, followed by shattering, along with whatever shattered landing against the stone floor.

The group stopped and looked back the way they came.

What was that?" Spandam asked.

Hope-filled Robin's eyes as she knew that the Straw hats were finally catching up to her. Though she did not know which member of the crew had destroyed that big heavy door as there were at least three possibilities.

"Likely the Pirates, I can only assume those two children led one of Straw hats crew to the secret door and they ripped it open," Lucci answered casually.

"Children?" Robin gasped. She knew that Connor was with the Straw Hats as she had seen him when they provoked Spandam and CP9 earlier. But Lucci had said Children, not child. As in more than one, Robin could not think who the other child was or what led the crew to not only picking up another child or bringing them to Enis Lobby.

"What Children?" Spandam demanded.

"The ones who have been following us,"

Robin's eyes went wide. Connor had been following her? How had he found the secret door? Robin knew that Connor didn't have the physical strength to tear down that large door, so Lucci's assessment would be correct. Connor likely had gotten one of the stronger members to take the door down.

She assumed either Sanji, Luffy, or Chopper. Since there was no echo of the cook crying out for Robin to wait for her and him shouting out his undying love; Robin assumed it would be either Chopper or Luffy were now in the tunnel with Connor. Though this did not explain why Lucci had not said or done anything sooner.

"WE'VE BEEN FOLLOWED!" Spandam yelled, completely unaware of what Robin was thinking.

"Yes, for a while now," Lucci confirmed.

"WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT OR LET ME KNOW WE WERE BEING FOLLOWED!"

"You didn't order me too," Lucci shrugged.

Robin stared at Lucci in shock. Connor had been following her? And Lucci knew and hadn't done anything about it?

"Fine then, I order you to kill them. From now on you are to protect me and kill any who approach,"

"No, you can't, he's only 13," Robin protested "He just a boy,"

"Who the fuck cares? He's a pirate and if he associates with you then he's just worthless scum like the rest of your crew," Spandam spat. Then a creepy evil smile "besides all criminals must be eliminated in the name of Justice,"

Connor, please run away, Robin thought.

"Oh, that is a good look for you, the look of despair knowing that your little friends are going to die. Even if they do catch up you won't be escaping since Lucci here will kill them,"

"No, please don't hurt him, he doesn't know any better," Robin begged.

"Of course, he doesn't, he hangs around you and that is reason enough to kill him. How does it feel to know that not only that all your friends are going to die but also a 13yr old boy will be killed because of you? Your mere existence has sealed his fate," Spandam ranted.

"You know what, let's announce it to everyone, that you are going to murder a child," Spandam cried out. He reached into his coat and pulled out a Den Den communicator and the Golden snail Buster call trigger.

Robin stared at the trigger with complete and utter terror in her eyes. Spandam turned away from Robin and Lucci to make his announcement.

"Attention everyone, to add to the many crimes Nico Robin has committed. We can now add the murder of an innocent child to the list. You hear that Straw Hat, she killed a child and enjoyed it too, she is nothing but a monster," Spandam proclaimed loudly while laughing.

Once he was done, he turned back to gloat some more however he noticed the horrified look on Robin's face. Lucci had his eyes closed, pinching the bridge of his nose, and was shaking his head.

"What, why are you staring at me like that?" Spandam asked.

"What…what did you do?" Robin asked softly, her voice filled with fear.

"Hmm…" Spandam looked down and in his hand, the one he had used to make the innocent was not a Den-Den Mushi Speaker but the golden snail trigger for the buster call…and his thumb was pushing down the trigger button.

"EEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH!" Spandam screamed. In his panic his he did not realise he activated the communication snail he was holding in the other hand.


With Nami about 5 min earlier

"This is a lot of pink," Nami observed as he and Nami stepped into a very large and very pink Bathroom. There was a huge luxurious tub that was overflowing and sitting inside was Khalifa having a bubble bath.

"Ah, the Navigator. Welcome," Khalifa greeted from her bath.

Nami shifted into a defensive stance and held her Clima-Tact out, ready to fight.

"Oh, are you going to strike me while I'm in the bath?" Khalifa asked

"Only if I have to, I would rather avoid a fight. So, give me your key and I'll be on my way and you can finish your bath,"

"I would but…that would go against my orders," Khalifa sighed. She then leaned back and rested her head against the back of the tub "Baths are so relaxing, don't you think?"

"Fine have it your way, I'll just find the key myself," Nami said and she started heading towards the changing screen "There's no... reason..." she trailed off.

Suddenly Nami felt her strength drain from her legs. "What?" Nami gasped, as the navigator dropped to her knees. "My strength is fading."

Khalifa looked over at Nami and tilted her head. "Oh my, what are you doing on the ground?"

"What did you do?!" Nami demanded.

"Me, nothing," Khalifa answered. She lifted some of the bubbles and rubbed the soap on her chest and arms. Then her right leg came out of the water, revealing her silky-smooth skin. "I'm naked, how could I do anything?"

Nami tried to stand back up but found that any strength in her legs was now gone. Her struggles only resulted in her lying on the floor and getting her whole body soaked and she started to feel even more of her strength leave.

"Are you alright my dear? I thought you were in a hurry," Khalifa asked. She picked up a hand full of bubbles and blew them offer her hand and into the air. They floated for a bit before landing on the tiled floor and popping "You don't have much time left after all,"

"Shut up," Nami panted. It was getting to be an effort just to talk "How can you even think about taking a bath at this moment?"

"What do you mean?" Khalifa asked confused.

"I mean you in the bath and I am standing here ready to fight you," Nami shouted "Plus the rest of the crew are fighting your teammates,"

"You're not much of an enemy," Khalifa sighed "To be honest I expected more but…that blonde pirate didn't even land a single blow. As for the rest of CP9, well I'm not worried,"

"You should be,"

"Not really, they can handle your friends easily. After all, we saw what you were all capable of at Water 7 and we were not impressed," Khalifa huffed.

"You shouldn't underestimate us," Nami defended fiercely.

"Oh no? Here you and I are, in the midst of a battle and you, having done nothing to me are already on the ground and out of breath. Were as all I have done is taken a bath," Khalifa pointed out.

"We're not even fighting yet," Nami shot back "we haven't started,"

Khalifa stared and Nami and let out a low chuckle as an evil smile formed on her face "Oh my dear, we are indeed fighting right now. The fact that you can't see it or even realise it just proves my point," She then stood up out of the bath revealing her naked body "but I shall indulge you,"

Khalifa stepped out of the bath and walked behind the changing screen "Be with you in a few moments dear," she said.

Nami finally pushed her self-back up, while Khalifa was changing, she had begun to feel her strength coming back. She tested her hands and her legs and she found that she could move again. Nodding in satisfaction, she looked back at the screen to see different clothes being pulled down.

Taking the chance to catch the assassin off guard, Nami got up and ran forward, her Clima-tact swinging wildly with lighting. "I've got you now, Thunderbolt- Lance," she cried as the attack through the changing screen. However, there was nothing behind it but a wet towel.

"Oh, a surprise attack, how predictable," Khalifa sighed. She was now standing where Nami had been a few seconds ago "If that's the best you've got then your more of a disappointment that the last guy who came in here,"

Nami smiled and turned around. "Didn't I tell you not to underestimate our crew? Look up,"

Khalifa did so and she saw a dark storm cloud above her. "Storm clouds?" the agent gasped.

"There's a storm warning for the entire Tower of Law," Nami smirked, her Clima-Tact still pumping out Heat Balls and Cool Balls to add to the cloud that covered the ceiling. "Storms are expected even indoors, so you should be careful not to get wet. Thunderbolt Tempo!" Nami finished her declaration by firing a Thunder Ball into the cloud. The storm sparked a little before releasing the static current it had downward. "Got you,"

When the smoke cleared all that remained Khalifa was a human-sized soap bar. The bar began to dissolve into bubbles and once it was gone Khalifa was unharmed.

That was close," the agent said "If I didn't have my Soap Shield that would have ended badly,"

"Just what the hell kind of Devil Fruit did you eat?" Nami demanded.

"Figuring that out is part of fighting anyone with a devil fruit," Khalifa responded "not that you could,"

"Knowing our crews' luck I bet it was something stupid," Nami sighed "like the Awa-Awa no Mi (Bubble-Bubble Fruit) or something."

"How did you know?!" Khalifa gaped defensively.

"Wait that was right?" Nami responded in surprise "you mean there is an actual fruit that grants you the power over bubbles?"

"Ahem, well, it doesn't matter. Now watch in horror as I show you the true terror of bubbles! Bubble Master: Bubble Sheep!"

The bubbles in the room all began to swirl around Khalifa and combine into one form. Nami raked her brain for what kind of attack the female Cp9 agent was about to unleash upon her. However, her face fell when she saw the strange foam sheep in front of her.

"Well, what do you think?" Khalifa asked confidently "Scared yet?"

"That…is the stupidest and lamest thing I've ever seen," Nami said bluntly, eyeing the form Khalifa had created. "And that's saying something to anyone who has met Luffy," She wasn't wrong about Khalifa's form. The CP9 agent had covered herself in a layer of bubbles from the bathtub beside her, only her legs, face, and arms showing, the latter bent to mimic horns.

"How insulting!" Khalifa cried. "Take this! Calming Bubbles!" The woman's disguise broke apart, shooting clumps of bubbles toward the Navigator. Nami, not wanting to take any chances tried to get out of the way. But it was too late, several blobs hit her shoulder and legs making her once again lose her strength and collapse on the ground.

"My bubbles can cleanse anything they touch of nearly anything I please. Grime and dirt, of course, but also things like willpower, energy," Khalifa explained as she approached Nami. "Also do try to remember that I am also an Assassin for the Government,"

Khalifa kicked Nami hard in the stomach, it sent her flying back and she landed on the ground with a painfilled cry. However, the kick had unintentionally removed the bubbles from her body and the Navigator felt her strength return.

"Thunder Ball," Nami cried and she sent a ball of electricity towards Khalifa.

"You forget," Khalifa snarled. "We CP9 agents can move faster than lightning. Shave!" Suddenly, she was gone and reappeared behind Nami. "The only thing I don't understand about you is that strange weapon, but I have a counter for it,"

"Golden Bubbles," Khalifa purred, her head on Nami's shoulder as the agent's lathered hands danced over the younger female's body. Nami could do nothing as her form slowly changed from that of her normal form to one like Sanji's that she had found downstairs. Her weapon fell out of her hands when they became too slippery to hold their grip on it. "Look at how beautiful your skin is now. I'll admit, it doesn't do much for your lesser curves, but your skin is flawless and now you can't use that staff of yours either,"

Nami struggled with her Clima-tact, but no matter what she could not get a grip on the staff. Khalifa watched her with amusement for several minutes.

"Well this has been fun; I take back what I said earlier. You were better than the blond man who came in here first; sadly, you know have to die," Khalifa said in a condescending tone. Nami struggled to move however she couldn't stand up and only wound up splashing about.

Khalifa slowly loomed closer and when she was right above Nami she balled her fist living a single finger pointed out. Ready to strike the Pirate Navigator down. When suddenly…

BUDUP-BUDUP-BUDUP... BUDUP-BUDUP-BUDUP...

Halting her attack, Khalifa clicked her tongue. "Now?" she asked annoyed.

"Is that a Transponder snail?" Nami asked, "You do know it's rude to have that on during a battle, right?"

"I will deal with you in a moment," Khalifa said in a deadly tone before she pulled out her transponder snail from her cleavage and woke it up.

"This isn't the snail I was looking for!" Spandam's voice cried from the snail. Khalifa raised her eyebrow at this, it appeared Spandams had called her accidentally for no reason…again. Khalifa made a mental note to submit yet another Sexual Harassment Complaint against him later.

"You idiot!" Robin's voice cried. "Do you even know what you've done?!"

"Of course, I do!" Spandam replied with fake confidence. "I pressed the button on the golden transponder snail... I triggered a Buster Call!"

"Everybody run!" Robin cried. "If you stay here, you'll die! Runaway!"

"Shut up, you bitch!" Spandam shouted followed by the sound of the man punching the woman. "Don't tell them things they don't need to know! So, I pushed the button by accident. It doesn't matter!"

"Of course, it does!" Robin yelled her voice quieter due to her distance from the snail. "You weren't there on Ohara 20 years ago! You don't know what you've done! If you don't take it back, the Navy will destroy Enies Lobby and everyone on it until nothing is left! Cancel it!"

"I can't just cancel the Buster Call! That would make me the laughing stock of Marine Headquarters and my promotion's at stake here!"

"Thousands of people will die!"

"Who gives a shit?!" Spandam laughed. "If we need to kill 100 people for the greater good, CP9 will slaughter them without a second thought! Who cares if a couple of thousand people die in the Buster Call as long as you are arrested and the pirates killed? Wahahaha!"

"The communication snail is still on," Robin observed.

"What?!" Spandam squeaked. "Uhh, this is Straw Hat Luffy!"

"Everybody run!" Robin shouted again.

"Shut up!" Spandam yelled before the snail suddenly shut off.

Khalifa and Nami both stared at the phone for a few moments.

"Your boss is an idiot," Nami commented, breaking the silence "and again that is saying something considering who my captain is,"

"Indeed, no matter," Khalifa agreed and she returned the Transponder snail to her chest. She then looked down at Nami "Now, where were we?"

"Hold on. Did you not hear what Robin just said?" Nami yelled desperately "We're all going to die from the Buster Call,"

"Oh no my dear, you will be long dead before those ships even reach here,"

Before Khalifa could a loud RAAAAWWR! Filled the room. Both women looked around for the source of the noise.

"What is that?!" Nami gasped as the whole room was shaking. The outside wall began to crack until a giant hand smashed through, forcing the CP9 agent to jump away. The hand, which was covered in long brown fur except for the black fingers, pulled back and ripped stone out of the wall to make the hole bigger. In doing so, the creature revealed its upper half.

It was massive, easily over 50 feet tall, with brown fur hanging from almost every part of its body. The head was vaguely reindeer-ish in structure with a blue nose. Atop its head was an oversized version of the hat Chopper always wore with giant antlers shooting out of two bases. Its eyes were a glowing blue, shadowed by the hat as they swept across the room. Without thinking, the beast tossed Kumadori, who had been bloody and unconscious in its right hand, over its shoulder.

"RAAAAWWR," it shouted, one hand moving forward to grab more stone from the walls.

"What the hell is that monster?" Khalifa demanded. The fear evident in her voice.

"I don't…wait I know that hat. Chopper?!" Nami realised, the navigator focused on the blue nose and the very distinct hat.

"RAAAAWWR!" Reaching in, the monster that had to be Chopper ripped the water-filled bathtub up out of the floor and threw it, forcing Khalifa even further away from Nami before it took them with it on a fall through the centre of the tower. The beast roared again and clambered through the hole, ignoring Khalifa and her attacks as it crawled to the centre of the tower.

"Sanji's are down there!" Nami cried out. But it was too late, the tub had already fallen and there would be no saving Sanji now.

"Chopper!" Nami yelled, attempting to get the beast's attention to her. There was no spark of recognition in the monster's eyes as it swung at them. Khalifa swiftly dodged out of the way and all Nami could do was duck and cover her head. It was only now that she noticed that her right leg was back to normal.

"Wait…why is…" Nami whispered and then she looked up to see the water was spewing out of a pipe where the bathtub once was. "Water…of course its just soap and bubbles,"

While Khalifa was distracted Nami made her way over to the pipe, bringing her Clima-tact with her buy rolling it on the ground. When she reached it, she immediately washed her hands and they went back to normal. Grabbing her weapon, she began to spin a lot of cool balls into the room with only a few heat balls. Nami smiled confidently, she finally had a way to beat the CP9 agent.

It was at this point that the massive monstrous form of Chopper seemed to lose interest in Khalifas' bathroom and started to climb further up the tower. Once he was gone Khalifa reappeared on solid ground again.

"Well, there is something I did not expect. I'll admit, you pirates are the oddest assortment of monsters I've ever met," Khalifa stated.

"you haven't seen anything yet. Chopper gave me time to put my plan into motion. Rain Tempo," Nami cried and shot one more cool ball up into the air. Heavy rain began to fall from the cloud that now expanded the entire room. The soap and foam washed off Nami's body returning her to her normal form.

"you've undone the gift I gave you. That's just rude." Khalifa hissed annoyed. She did not like the weapon that Nami was using.

"An update from your Navigator, expect the heavy rain to continue, followed by a dense mist that will make visibility very difficult. Finally, expect the storm from earlier to return with increased ferocity," Nami smirked.

"You pirates are so aggravating," Khalifa scowled. She dashed forward and ran up to Nami who had yet to move "Finger Gun," Khalifa struck Nami in the heart, however instead of dying or even bleeding; Nami faded away into nothing.

"What…how did…" Khalifa gasped.

"Didn't you listen to the weather forecast?" Nami's voice said confidently "I said dense mist will make visibility difficult," Nami's voice came from somewhere in the room.

Khalifa looked around and noticed that the room was filled with a dense mist. She saw a humanoid shadow on the other side and Nami stepped into view. However, she was not alone; there were 4 other versions with her. Two on each side.

One was a small chubby dwarf, another a long thin version that looked like Nami had been looking into a funhouse mirror. There was also one that was a small chibi version of the navigator and finally a large obese normal sized version.

"Now Khalifa let's see if you are paying attention," the Nami's' said all at once. "Mirage Tempo,"

Khalifa narrowed her eyes. "This trick won't save you. I already know which one is the real you. Shave," the CP9 agent suddenly appeared in front of the only normal-looking version of Nami "Finger Gun," she cried. But like before that version of Nami vanished.

"Oops, wrong choice. I'm not as vain as you," the reaming four Nami's' said "Not a very good Assassin falling for the same trick twice," as the other Nami's' all moved away from her and regrouped on the other side of the room. They all started sending massive amount s of heat balls into the cloud.

"You little wretch, Bubble Sheep: Calming Bubbles!" Khalifa yelled as she sent clumps of bubbles towards the four Nami's. Unfortunately, they didn't reach due to the heavy rain.

"Sorry that won't work either," the Nami's smirked.

"I know, I just needed you in a single place," Khalifa smirked. She raised her arms and a massive wave of bubbles filled the area "Bubble Tsunami!"

Khalifa called forth and send the massive wave of Calming Bubbles that would most certainly engulf and subdue all the Nami's if it hit. Due to the sheer size of it, there was nowhere that Nami could run that would avoid this attack.

The look on the four Nami's face told Khalifa that the Navigator too had figured this out as well.

"This is the end," Khalifa smiled.

"Cyclone tempo," the Nami's yelled as they all shot the tops of their staffs towards the wave; creating a small hole. Making a mad dash for the hole in the wave, only the small chubby Nami and the chibi Nami made it through the wave as the other two illusions disappeared into nothing upon coming into contact with the wave.

"That was a clever trick," the two remaining Nami's spoke together "It might have worked, had we not faced and burst through a massive tidal wave to get here,"

"But now you've lost your advantage. Finger Gun," Khalifa launched herself at the chibi Nami but it too was an illusion. Khalifa smiled since there was only one Nami left that meant that she was the real one. She quickly did a roundhouse back kick, aimed at the head of the final chubby Nami.

"Now you die pirate wretch," Khalifa said. However, her victory was short-lived as the final Nami also disappeared. Khalifa's eyes went wide "Impossible…none of them were real?" she gasped.

"Nope," Nami's voice came from behind. Khalifa turned just in time to see the real Nami slam her Clima-tact right under her chin. She broke off one part of her metal staff and slammed it down shirt; her chest keeping it in place "That was for Sanji you bitch,"

Khalifa stumbled back for a second and when she regained her composure, she saw Nami's staff sparking with electricity "and this is for Robin. LIGHTNING ROD TEMPO!"

Nami's Thunder Ball flew directly into the cloud above which was now extremely dense and engulfed the entire room. Lightning sparked and crackled all across the room, straight towards the part of the Clima-tact that was sticking out of Khalifas' chest.

"This is…Sexual harassment," Khalifa said right before the lightning struck. The storm struck her opponent head-on. Khalifa screamed in pain as the full force of Nami's storm was unleashed upon her before passing out. Steam rose from Khalifa's open mouth as Nami stood over her.

"And this is why you always listen to a Navigator forecast," Nami smiled as she bent down and pulled her staff out of Khalifas' chest.
