Straw Hats were almost close to their destination.
Okay it shoudn't be to much farther now.' Nami said to Vivi
Don't lie to me Luffy, I want to know exactly what happened and your going to look at me in then eyes and tell me the truth.' Sanji said grabbing Luffys cheek in anger.
I have no idea what you mean Sanji, I don't know anything.' Luffy said
'Then let me ask you how did enough food for nine people that divided perfectly so that it'll last us to get to Alabasta just dissapear over night, so stop lying you got a terrible way of hiding it.' Sanji said
Luffy just turned his face away.
Uh Luffy there's something around your mouth.' Sanji said
I forgot about the crumbs!' Luffy yelled
SO YOU DID EAT IT!?" Sanji yelled kicking Luffy.
Jerk.. Hey Nami can we do something? Perhaps put a lock for the refrigerator.' Sanji said
That's not such a bad idea, (looks at Ussop, Cray, Chooper and Carue fishing) it could mean the difference of life and death.' Nami said
All of them were secretly eating some food.
Okay we got to make sure that we get some fish for sanji.' Ussop said
You said it.' Cray said
So how is the fishing coming along?' Sanji said walking towards them.
Great it's going along just fine.' Ussop said
I think I almost had a bite.' Cray said
Suddenly Cray felt a hand on the side of his head and then Sanji crashed his head together to Ussops and Carue.
Pathetic I can't keep my eyes off of you guys for just one second.' Sanji said
Crays stomach was rumbling.
"Oh man all I had was that piece of bread, I knew I should've ate when I had the chance.' Cray said literally drawing some food laying on the couch. Nami, Chopper and Sanji were doing there own thing.
Uh Nami I think there might be trouble up ahead.' Vivi said
What is it?' Nami said
All of them walked out and noticed the smoke up ahead.
Oh, there's nothing to worry about it,s just a little bit of steam.' Nami said
'Steam from an ocean?' Vivi said
Yeah it's a hotspot. Underneath over there is an active volcano.' Nami said
'There's volcanoes under the ocean?' Chopper said
'That's right, in fact there are more volcanoes under water then on land.' Nami said
So I guess we can,t eat the steam then?' Luffy said hungry.
'There will be new island by that spot, but it will take thousands of years for it to happen.' Nami said
Wow your amazing Nami' sanji said
'You think I'll be able to wait that long ?' Luffy said to Ussop
I don't know but I don't tend to live that long.' Ussop said
So guys, have you caught anything yet?' Sanji said
No and were starving, could you cook up something?' Luffy said
I don't know, you pretty much ate everything, but I'll go and check the storage to see what we have left.' Sanji said going back inside.
They were then sailing into the steam, and everyone was coughing
"Just keep it together everyone we'll be out of it soon!' Nami said coughing.
Why didn't we just go around it!?" Cray yelled coughing
I can't see anything!' Luffy yelled
'It' tastes like sulfur.' Ussop said
As they were sailing out of the fog, Luffy and Ussop started to feel a tug on their fishing poles.
I think we got something!' Luffy yelled
Luffy and Ussop looked and noticed a strange man holding onto Carue, he had make up on and was wearing a pink swan overcoat, a blue medieval outfit, and some ballerina shoes.
' I got to stop jumping on every random duck I see.' The man said
The man then slipped off and into the water.
Ahh please help me I can't swim!' The main said
(One rescue later)
Everyone minus Sanji, went to see the strange man.
I thought I was gonna die there for a minute, you saved me thanks, I will never forget your kindness.' The man said
So you can't swim? Luffy said
'Nope You see I ate a devil fruit so I can't swim not even a little bit.' The man said
What kind of devil fruit?' Ussop said
'Well since I won't be getting anywhere without my ship, I suppose there's no harm on having a little fun. All right I'll show you, this is my POWER!" The man said palm striking Luffy in the face, which caught everyone by surprise.
What the hell?!" Zoro yelled taking his swords out
Wait! Hold on a second this is just for a little fun.' The man said
Everyone had a shocked expression as they saw the man turn into Luffy.
What the!?" Cray said
Woah!" Luffy said getting up
And when I touch my face with my left hand...I'm back to normal. That is the power of the clone clone fruit you see.'The man said turning back.
Amazing.' Nami said
The voices and appearance matched perfectly.' Ussop said
The man then touched Ussop, Crays, Namis, Zoros, and Choppers face.
Now watch carefully.' The man then turned to Cray
'You see.' The man then turned to Ussop
All I have to do.' The man then turned to Zoro
Is touch my right hand to you.' The man then turned to Chopper.
'I can mimic anyone.' The man then turned to Nami.
And that's not all I can change...bodies to.' The man said showing his chest to Luffy, Chopper, and Ussop In Namis form which made them all bug eyed.
Nami then Punched the man in the face hard turning him to Normal.
STOP THAT!" Nami yelled red faced and a vein throbbing on her head.
Are you okay?' Luffy said
I'm fine but I don't think I should show you my power anymore.' The man said
Please do more!' Ussop Chooper, and Luffy yelled.
Well okaaaaay.' The man said
Doing a ballerina twirl. The man then started changing into different faces and one of them caught Vivi by surprise and was shocked over it.
Hey guys there's a ship coming this way.' Cray said
Everyone looked and noticed.
Thats my ship..well I guess it's time to say goodbye my new friends.' The man said
Noooo please don't,t go yet!" Chopper, Luffy and Ussop
'Yes it is sad that I have to go but don't worry, friendships are eternal!' The man said jumping onto his ship
Until we meet again!' The man said
Bye!' They all said
Now let's get going!' The man said
Yes Mr. 2 Mr. Bon Clay sir' his crew said as they sailed away.
WAIT A MINUTE! MR.2!" The Straw Hats yelled
Mr.2!?" Vivi said
What? You mean you didn't recognize him?" Luffy said
No I've never met Mr.2 or Mr.1 quite frankly I don't really know much about the officers or there abilities. But I did hear rumors. Mr.2 was a tall ballerina with a swan coat that has the name bon clay on the back.' Vivi said
But that's not all while he was switching through his faces I saw my father. Cobra Nefetari, the king of Alabasta.' Vivi said almost in tears.
That's not good if he can mimic the kings appearance so easily that can cause a lot of trouble.' Zoro said
And now he has all of ours.' Cray said
Guess we let a very dangerous guy get away.' Ussop said
'This is bad, if Mr.2 figures out that were the ones that baroque works is after he can use are faces against us once we get to alabasta.' Nami said
'Now hold on a second I know that things look bad but hear me out... It's actually a good thing we bumped into him when we did, now that we know what were up against we can prepare and beat him at his own game.' Zoro said
Sanji then finally came from the storage. He then saw everyone tying bandages on their arms.
What did I miss?' Sanji said
You wouldn't believe it we bumped into this guy that was able to change his appearnce'into anyone.' Ussop said
'Really?' Sanji said
Yeah and then we found out he's one of the officers that Vivi was talking about.' Cray said
"And so were wrapping these bandages on our arms to make sure we don't mistake anyone in case he uses his powers against us.' Nami said
Hmm, it seems I missed alot.' Sanji said
There now we can tell each other apart.' Nami said
Then suddenly there was this big rumbling noise coming from the underneath the ship.
"Whoah what's going on?' Cray yelled
I don't know?' Nami said
Then suddenly there was this big giant sea king that looked like a cat.
Its, a sea cat!' Vivi yelled
Ahhhhhhh!' Ussop screamed
Looks like food to me!' Zoro yelled getting his swords
Yeah! MEAT!" Luffy yelled
I don't care if it's a cat or not I'm starving!' Cray yelled
The sea cat then suddenly started to get nervous.
Quick someone turn the ship around!' Luffy yelled
Don't you let it get away or I'll kill you.' Sanji yelled
Then suddenly all four of them felt a broom stick hit them over the head knocking them down.
Don't!' Vivi yelled
The sea cat the swam away
Vivi why did you do that for I'm hungry!' Luffy yelled
I'm sorry, I just couldn't let you.' Sea cats are sacred creatures in Alabasta it would be wrong for me to let you guys kill it!' Vivi yelled
Well that's a damn shame.' Sanji said
No this is good, that means that were close to Alabasta now.' Vivi said happily.
And what about those ships?' Zoro said
What?' Vivi said
Everyone looked and saw baroque work ships coming.
Look at all those ships.' Luffy said
And there all bearing the baroque works flag this can,t be good.' Ussop said scared
It seems that all the agents are gathering, I'm guess ions these must be the billions, the subordinates for the officer agents.' Vivi said
'That means there's 200 agents ready for us.' Nami said
These groups will be better then the bounty hunters that you came across at whiskey peak that I'm certain.' Vivi said
Guys I can see land!' Cray yelled
That must be Nanohana!' Vivi said excited
Woohoo we finally made it, all right let's huddle up. Luffy said
Everyone stood in a circle with there bandaged arms out
This is a sign of our friendship...NOW LETS EAT!...oh and help Vivi.' Luffy said
Luffy!?" Everyone yelled
