(Bluenos Bar)
Iza was walking towards the bar, as she opened the door into the bar she noticed that ti was still surprisingly busy especially with Agua Laguna on its way in just a few more hours. Iza walked to the front of the bar seeing the owner of it Blueno cleaning a mug.
"Why Hello Iza." Blueno said
"Hello Blueno." Iza said sitting down.
"What would you like?" Blueno said
"The Strongest thing you got." Iza said putting Beri Bill on the table.
"Coming right up." Blueno said walking away.
" "The Strongest thing you got huh?" You must be really angry about something."
Iza turned to her right and saw Kokoro with her Granddaughter Chimney and her pet Gonbe
"High Iza!" Chimney yelled
"Nya Nya." Gonbe said
"Kokoro, of course, theres no other women I know that would bring a child to a bar." Iza said
"hahahahaha!" Kokoro laughed taking a drink
"Don't worry were just drinking Juice." Chimney said
"Nya." Gonbe said
"I sure hope thats juice." Iza said as Blueno put the drink right in front of her, she then took a sip from it
"So how are things going at the Art Gallery?" Kokoro said
"You Know same old same old, paintings hanging on a wall, gathering dust. barely any people to come see them...the Usual." Iza said
"Perhaps maybe after Agua Laguna hits I'll take a trip over there...for old time sake, Its nice to see those old paintings Kazuyo made now and again, brings back a lot of good memories." Kokoro said a slight tone of sadness in it, while taking another drink
"Heh Thanks Kokoro. I would really appreciate it." Iza said
"Anyway where that little Assistant of yours?" Kokoro said
Iza then took a long drink of the mug.
"Trying to find him, he ran off." Iza said
"Why?" Kokoro said
"He took this kids Sketchbook and now he's trying to find him so he can bring it back to him, I've been trying to look for him for hours...I hate when he does this, jsut goes and runs off" Iza said
"Don't you think its a good thing that he's trying to return something that he stole from someone." Kokoro said
"Of Course I do, but its who he stole it from is what I'm worried about." Iza said
"Who did he take it from?" Kokoro said
"A Person from a group of pirates, that are responsible for bringing that woman Nico Robin here and shooting Iceburg, Which I'm sure you've heard of by now." Iza said
"Yes I have...although I don;t think its those pirates that really did it though?" Kokoro said
Iza was caught off guard hearing that
"Wha.."
Before Iza could continue she heard a loud crash as some one opened the door forcefully. leaving everyone that was in the bar quiet and shocked as they saw Franky along with The Square sisters Kiwi and Mozu, that was with him.
"Welcome Franky." Blueno said
"Aow, How is it going Blueno!? Is it going Super!?" Franky said Doing a Pose along with the Square Sisters
"Franky, Kiwi and Mozu
"I think were doing good." Blueno said
"What do you mean you think? You sure are an indecisive guy." Franky said walking towards him. Franky then opened up his stomach area and inside were three empty glass bottles.
"Fill them up with the usual Blueno?" Franky said putting the bottles down on the table.
"Do you have money?" Blueno said
Just refill them with Cola, I find it surprising that your bar is still having business when you take money from your customers." Franky said annoyed
Don't worry, we got money." Kiwi said holding up some Beri bills in her hand along with her sister.
"We've about a million beris left." Mozu said
"WHAT!? We still got that much money from yesterday!? How Shameful and Uncool! To think we spent all of it." Franky said as he took the money.
"EVERYONE TODAYS YOUR LUCKY DAY! ALL OF YOUR ALCOHOL IS ON ME! DRNK AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE" Franky yelled as he tossed the Money into the air and everyone cheering in happiness.
"Blueno Come on hurry up with that Cola!?" Franky said Sitting down
"You seem to be doing well Franky." Kokoro said
Franky then turned towards her
"Ah! Old Hag Kokoro is that you!? I thought it was the statue of a monster." Franky said
Franky then felt a someone hit him in the back of his head really hard.
"Show some respect, you Meathead." Iza said
"...Alright Who's the wise guy tha...Aow! Iza!...Your looking Super, today." Franky said
"Idiot." Iza said getting back to her drink
"Oh come on Iza your really gonna give me the cold shoulder like that?" Franky said
"You destroyed nearly the Entirety of Dock #1 You imbecile!" Iza said
"Oh come on it wasn't entirely my fault, if you want to blame anyone, Blame the Straw Hat kid." Franky said
"Hey is it okay If we can get a refill for our Juice!" Chimney said
"This is a bar, this place is not for kids." Franky said
"Franky." Kokoro said
"Eh fine Whatever." Franky said
"All right juice!" Chimney said
"So how are you feeling?" Kokoro said
"Terrible, thanks to that damn Pirate." Franky said
"here you are." Blueno said putting the Three full cola glass bottle in front of him.
"Its about time." Franky said grabbing them.
"he then opened his Stomach compartment and put the three bottle in.
"mmmmmmmmmmm." Franky hummed as his forearms were pulsating rapidly
"mmmmmmmmmmmmmm...SUPEEEEER!" Franky yelled feeling powered up, as Steam escaped from his body
he slammed his fist onto the table.
"I've Revived! next time I see that Punk I'll beat him to a pulp!...By the Way why are you here anyway." Franky said to Iza
"I'm just here to catch my breath, I'm looking for someone." Iza said
"Who? Is it finally a Boyfriend?" Franky said
"Screw You." Iza said Drinking again.
"Hahahahaha...how about you Old hag whhat are you doing here?" Franky said to Kokoro
Agua Laguna is coming." Kokoro said
"Oh thats Right, No wonder the winds are getting stronger." Franky said
"did you prepare your house already?" Kokoro said
"No, thats because my house is gone, I've got nothing that could sink so I have no worries." Franky said
"Well I was going to have drink with Iceberg but I heard he was shot." Kokoro said
"Yeah I heard it was those pirates doing, Galley-La and the Townspeople are furious right now...I'm sure your feeling that way?."Franky said turning to Iza
"What do you think?...also, Kokoro thinks it may not be them at all" Iza said
"What do you mean?" Franky said turning towards Kokoro said
"Iceburg has been getting nagged this whole time by the World Governemnt Right?" Kokoro said
"So What? so your saying that Chubby Official did it?, he doesn;t look the type." Franky said
"No...shadowy Incidents are done by CP9." Kokoro said
"CP9?" iza said
"Yep, Do you know about them Blueno?" Kokoro said
"only just Rumor." Blueno said
"Geez, Common Folk sure like to believe in rumors like fake organizations." Franky said
"This is the first time I've ever heard of them, what are they? Some form of Marine Branch or something?" Iza said
"there a shadowy organization, they never show themselves since their unit works in secret." Kokoro said
"You sound so Confident where did you get this information." Franky said
"I heard about it over there." Kokoro said pointing kind of drunk
"Oh god." Iza said
"THEN ITS JUST A RUMOR THEN DON'T MESS WITH ME LIKE THA-" Franky was interrupted
"It being always a Rumor is the Scary part, they Eliminate people without anyone noticing, if you meddle with them your as good as dead." Kokoro said
Iza then got done with her drink
"Yeah Well you two can continue on with discussing about Conspiracies all you like, but I got a little troublemaker I need to Continue to find." Iza said taking out a tip and putting on the table
"Thank You." Blueno said appreciating the gesture.
Cray, Sanji and Chopper were sitting down by the edge of the Canal still distraught at what Robin said to them.
"Dammit...Dammit!" Cray yelled Kicking away some garbage in his way.
"Chopper...do you sense her at all?" Sanji said Ringing his Wet Shirt
"...No. I Lost it." Chopper said sadly
Thye all sat there in silence for a second
"Chopper, Cray." Sanji said
"Yeah" Cray and Chopper said
"You two go on ahead, tell Luffy about whats happened." Sanji said turning around.
"What about you?" Cray said
" We'll part ways here just for a bit, Don't worry I won't do anything reckless" Sanji said
Sometime Later...
(Upper Part of the city)
HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!"
DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY!"
Luffy, Nami and Zoro were running away from a group of Shipwrights.
""I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU LEAD THEM RIGHT TO US ZORO! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU!?" Nami yelled
"IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN EVENTUALLY! WITH THIS MANY PEOPLE! IT WOULD BE WEIRD FOR THEM NOT TO FIND US!" Zoro yelled
"Quick! Turn Here!" Luffy yelled as turned towards an Alley.
"THEY WENT DOWN THERE!" A Shipwright yelled as they ran towards the Straw Hats direction
The Group of Shipwrights were standing on a Cross bridge. and surprisingly no one was there,
"Do you see any of them at all!" One of them said
"WHERE DID THEY GO!?" Another Yelled
"No its like they just vanished!"
we got a to hurry they Aqua Laguna is almost upon us they couldn't have gone that far!"
As the group of Shipwrights left. they didn;t notice that underneath the Bridge Luffy was Hanging on from both ends Keeping Zoro and Nami suspended over the Canal.
"Are...they...Gone...Yet." Luffy said Struggling
"Yeah I think So." Nami said peeking
"I Think there over here." a voice said
"Are you sure?" another voice said
Oh Crap." Nami said
"Yes I recognize that scent from anywhere."
"Scent?" Zoro said
The Two Figures then stopped by the bridge and then looked down.
"Chopper! Cray!" Luffy yelled in excitement but as he did he accidentally let go and Nami, Zoro and Luffy both dropped into the water.
"Hel...I Can't...SWI.." Luffy gurgled
After Rescuing Luffy from the water, the crew decided to hide out on top of a roof as they sun was slowing starting to go down.
"I'm glad to see that your both alright." Luffy said
"Well it wasn't easy, as soon as me and Chopper came to the upper levels of the city, those shipwrights recognized me right away, but we managed to give them the slip." Cray said
"Wheres Sanji by the way is he all right? Luffy said concerned
"He's fine...but theirs something we need to tell you guys." Chopper said
"What?" Luffy said
(One Explanation later)
Luffy had a shocked Expression After Chopper and Cray told them about what happened when they found Robin and what she confirmed.
"She...She Really said that?!" Luffy yelled
"Yeah." Chopper said sadly
Everyone just sat down in silence before Zoro broke it.
"We all...were prepared for it, Right?" Zoro said Extending one of his Sheathed swords in front of them
"even if it was for a short a time, we let Robin, who showed up as an enemy, come on board, it'd be embarrassing if we ran away because we got scared...don;t you all think its about time for us to settle this matter..as to whether this woman...is Friend or Foe?" Zoro said
everyone had a look of discomfort especially Cray.
"Cray, Chopper, you two are sure thats what robin said?" Zoro said
"down to the last letter." Cray sadly said
"Okay...So she said that we won't see her again after today, it also sounded like she was declaring to do something that could worsen the situation before the day is over...Look how much Chaos after the attempted assassination on the mayor caused this town. If its possible to make it even worse, theirs only one thing that she can do." Zoro said
"To Finish the Job." Cray said realizing it
"Its seems likely, but we know that shes pinning this crime on us on Purpose, so its possible that it could be a trap to lure us out to the scene of the crime." Zoro said
"A Trap?" Chopper said
"If all of us were there at the spot of the assassination, the crime will easily be pinned on us." Zoro said
"Whats the big Idea Zoro, your acting like Robin is already the enemy!" Cray yelled
"I'm just talking about the Possibility I didn't decide on if she was telling the truth or not, If I already did and if the truth turns out to be the opposite...It'll slow down my reaction." Zoro said gently unsheathing the sword and then sheathing it back
"If something is to happen, it'll be tonight...Are we going?" Zoro said to Luffy
"We Are." Luffy said
"I Don't mind going but theres one problem...Didn't Sanji say that robin was walking with someone with a mask on right? and Iceburg said the same thing, and it wasn;t any of us, he or she might be the reason why robin suddenly changed." Nami said
"You really think that person is Making Robin do all these bad thing!?" Chopper said
"That would be Fortune. but if this guy is Robins real friend,..That would be Misfortune. "Zoro said
"its a shame that pperson was wearing a mask though, that makes it even worse, we have no idea who this person looks like or where to even start to look for him...or her." Cray said
"Then whats the Plan?" Nami said
"We'll Capture Robin...Otherwise we won;t know anything." Luffy said standing up
"true. Just think about it is a waste of time. but now do I think about, didn't that Admiral Guy say they were trying to capture her for twenty years..and yet it still hasn't happened" Zoro said thinking about the odds of Capturing Robin
"(Sigh) this is the only way to know whats going on, we have no other choice." Cray said
"Okay then I'll do my best." Chopper said
"Well then, lets go...to Galley-La Company." Luffy said
(Sumi)
as Sumi was walking through the empty parts of the city.
Okay I remember it flying towards this direction." Sumi said remembering where the huge gust of wind carried the Sketchbook.
Sumi then could see shadows coming down.
"I'm Almost out of time." Sumi said panicking Running around
"Where is it!?" Sumi yelled running around Frantically.
As a Half an hour past Sumi just slowed down and plopped to the ground in sadness
"I can't believe this I can't believe I lost it!." Sumi said
I am so..Worthless!" Sumi yelled as he hit a wall with his Tailbrush Punch creating a splash on the wall with Red Paint. as he tightened his fists. But just as soon as he was about to give up he then noticed a Group of Shipwrights running towards his direction. and there were a lot of them Sumi then Quickly hovered over to the other side of the canal. as he saw the group running.
"HEY IZAS PET! DID YOU SEE THE STRAW HATS RUN THROUGH THIS WAY!?" Someone yelled
"Oh..Um, NO I HAVEN'T SORRY!" Sumi yelled
The Shipwirghts the just continued forward
"SEE I KNEW WE SHOULD'VE TURNED THE OTHER WAY! WE SHOULDN'T HAVE LISTENED TO YOU" A Man said
"I'm Sorry but were you the one that found this sketchbook? The only lead we have on there whereabouts?" A Man said
Sumi's ear then popped up in interest.
"Theres drawings of them and everything so it has to belong to one of them.." The man said taking it
One of the men Quickly took it out of his hands.
"Yeah some worth this piece of junk was." The man said tossing it away, the sketchbook then landed in the canal as the current of it was dragging it away. Sumi then started to run trying on the side of the canal.
"Oh Man. Sumi said
He then jumped and then started to hover to the other side, but also trying to reach towards the sketchbook. Sumi Quickly reached his hand towards it and he missed as he landed on the Other side. Sumi then went and did it again and of course missed. Sumi could see that an Overpass was coming. Sumi then tried one Last time to get it before the Sketchbook went underneath the Underpass.
Everything went slow as Sumi did for a third time.
"Al...most...there." Sumi said in his head
"SUMI!"
Sumi Ears Twitched as he heard his name
"I know that yell." Sumi said
Sumi looked forward and saw Iza standing on top of the Overpass
"Oh Hig..."
Before Sumi could even say anything he then felt his face get hit by the Overpass as he was hovering he then felt himself dropping into the water.
Dammit!" Iza yelled as she jumped into the water to fetch him out. As Iza pulled Sumi out of the water while he was Unconscious.
"Sumi you really get on my last nerve, all for this thing." Iza said with the Sketchbook in her hand now.
"Its time to go." Iza said walking with Sumi and the Sketchbook in her hands to the Safe Shelter were everyone was going for before the Storm hits.
Hey Iza!"
Iza looked forward and saw Paulie and a few his guys running towards her.
"Hey Paulie, what are you doing here? shouldn't you be heading the Safe Shelter?" Iza said
"Not until I catch Those Bastards...How about you? I could really use your help." Paulie said
"I Would if I could, but right now I need to get him somewhere safe." Iza said Showing him Sumi
"I Understand." Paulie said
"Don't worry once I have him at the Shelter I'll meet you back at the Galley-La Mansion." Iza said
"Okay, I'll see you there." Paulie said
(Outside of the Galley-La Mansion)
The Straw hats were now making there way towards the Main Building Chopper was Carrying Nami Jumping from Rooftop to Rooftop, Luffy was Carrying around Zoro While Cray Being use to traversing top of Rooftops made it in his own way, as all of them Jumped onto a Nearby tree so that they can scope the entire Area which was literally covered with Shipwrights Guarding the Front Entrance. and on a far distant Building there was two cloaked figures, one of them being Nico Robin and the other wearing a mask
"Are you Ready?" The Masked man said
"Yes." Robin said
