-In The Dense Jungles of Little Garden (With Gohan Vivi)
To say that this jungle was unlike anything that Gohan had ever seen...was truly an understatement.
As he and Vivi walked through the dense area with Carue following behind them, they all saw things that just...shouldn't have even belonged in the first place. Whether it be plants the size of humans that can literally swallow them whole, bugs of insurmountable sizes and so much more.
"W-What kind of jungle is this? I don't ever recall there ever being such a place, at least to my knowledge," Vivi told Gohan as she looked up into the dense trees.
Gohan nodded in complete agreement, his eyes looking around and sensing all the different energies belonging to the creatures and even plants, "Believe me...I'm just as speechless as you are."
Carue quacked behind them, clearly indicating that he was very troubled by their surroundings, actually quickening his pace to stay close to Gohan so that he could protect him better.
Vivi, obviously noticing how he was turned back to him as they walked and smiled lovingly, "Don't worry Carue, we'll be safe so don't so-"
"Watch it!"
Vivi was suddenly stopped in her tracks by Gohan as he put an arm in front of her as she was just about to step into a tar pit! Carue quacked in horror upon seeing such an odd, yet scary looking pool of...something.
Realizing what had nearly happened to her, Vivi sighed in relief as she looked towards Gohan, "T-Thank you Gohan-Kun."
Gohan simply nodded with a smile, "Don't mention it."
The two looked at one another with a smile, before the yell of a...certain rubber boy had caught their attention.
"SO COOL! YOU'RE SO BIG!"
Hearing exactly what he knew was Luffy, Gohan was already worried, "Oh boy...something's telling me that whatever it is he's with...isn't what he thinks."
"I...can imagine so," Vivi replied in agreement, worry showing on her face.
Carue quacked in agreement as he shook his head, knowing full well that something was up.
Quickly, Gohan led the way to where they heard Luffy's voice as Vivi and Carue followed behind and luckily they hadn't encountered anything dangerous...well…at least until they arrived where the rubber boy was.
The moment they could see as they entered an opening...Vivi's eyes widened in disbelief, while Gohan looked on surprised at the scene before them.
Luffy...was currently on top...of a dinosaur?! More specifically, a Brachiosaurus as Gohan knew about all the different dinosaurs from his studies!
Vivi was just as speechless, her mouth agape, "A-A D-Dinosaur!?"
Dinosaurs? I thought they were only in my world,Gohan thought to himself, looking at the dinosaur.
Carue was utterly speechless upon the sight, the life nearly leaving his eyes as his beak stayed wide open.
Having heard Vivi's shocked tone, Luffy looked down to them with a grin, "Hey guys! You have to get up here! Riding this big guy is awesome!"
"Luffy, get down! We don't know if that Dinosaur is friendly or not!" Vivi yelled out to him.
As if answering her plea, the Brachiosaur was getting quite agitated by the strange thing on its head and with a simple thrust of its head upward, forcing Luffy into the air-
*CHOMP!*
Only to then completely catch him in it's mouth.
Vivi screamed in horror as Carue quacked at the same time upon seeing Luffy basically eaten alive! Gohan however, was already on the move the moment he saw the motions occurring.
The second the Brachiosaur's mouth closed, the Hybrid was already there with his hands forcing its mouth open again as Luffy sat there in an albeit confused manner.
"Huh...didn't expect that to happen," Luffy nonchalantly said, sitting cross legged in the dino's mouth.
Ignoring what he said, Gohan used one of his hands to reach in and grab him by his arm and pulled him out.
And as quickly as he saved him, did the Hybrid move out of the way as the Brachiosaur tried to chomp down on him now!
"Look out!" Vivi yelled out in worry as Luffy landed beside her.
Gohan flew back down to the ground and watched as the Dinosaur was now quite angry, lifting its upper body in an attempt to slam it's foot down onto him.
The Hybrid got into a stance, ready to defend himself as the others watched on in worry before...something completely unexpected happened.
The head of the dinosaur was completely cut off by...an axe?! Better yet, it was not a regular one, but a GIANT sized one!
Gohan was speechless as he watched the head of the Brachiosaur fall to the floor, "What the heck?!"
"Gegyagyagya! That's another one added!" A loud voice boomed behind the corpse of the dinosaur.
It was then that Gohan and the others finally noticed the massive shadow now towering over them as...an actual giant now stood before them! He was completely decked out in some armor that the Hybrid took note that it was very viking like, hence the helmet, his sword and shield.
Luffy, Vivi and Carue all stared in disbelief at the behemoth of a giant, "A GIANT!!!"
Gohan was speechless, but not as shocked as...well...he's technically encountered a giant before. Vegeta in the Oozaru form defiantly counted as a giant encounter.
Makes me wonder who's bigger between him or Vegeta as an Oozaru, Gohan thought to himself.
He was sure Vegeta would win in that depar-
"SO COOL!!! A REAL LIFE GIANT!!!"
Seemingly becoming a trend with him, the voice of Luffy brought him out of his thoughts, looking over to see the rubber boy jumping in pure awe at the sight and presence of the giant.
Vivi tried to stop him from getting the giant's attention, but said giant was already looking at them with a curious grin, towering over them with ease.
"Oooh, do my eyes deceive me, or do I see actual humans here?" The giant asked them.
Luffy being carefree as always nodded at his question, "Yep! The name's Luffy! It's nice to meet ya giant man!"
"L-Luffy! M-Maybe we should ask him his name before just calling him something else," Vivi asked Luffy, clearly worried to be in the presence of a real and potentially dangerous giant.
However, there was no need to be afraid as Gohan could sense the giant's energy and his had no kind of malice or any sort of evil.
"Gegyagyagya!!! Ain't you the cheerful one!" The giant said as he laughed out loud, "Luffy is it? You're quite the funny little human!"
Both Vivi and Carue looked on with mouths wide open, in only a few seconds, Luffy had already seemingly made friends with the giant!
Gohan watching all of this unfold just chuckled in defeat, I can't believe it. Luffy really does have a cheerful attitude like my dad if he's already made friends with the giant.
"Thanks giant man! Hey, I don't suppose you have anything to eat cause I'm hungry!" Luffy asked as he rubbed his stomach.
The giant grinned with delight as he grabbed the tail of the dead Brachiosaur, "Well, since I got this boy right here, how does dinosaur sound?"
"Sounds yummy!" Luffy said with a grin, drooling at the thought of eating something BIG as that dinosaur.
Vivi sighed as did Carue as they knew there was no getting their way out of this, "Guess we have no other choice but to go with the giant."
Gohan...was actually pretty excited as considering he's had dinosaur before thanks to his training with Piccolo long ago as a kid, he missed eating dinosaur which was quite tasty.
All I'm missing is that old sword I used and Piccolo then this would be training all over again, Gohan thought to himself, remembering the good memories he had.
So with the plan of having dinosaur, Gohan rejoined with the others as they followed behind the giant, seemingly leading them to his home.
Luffy walked without a care in the world, both his hands behind his head as he followed the giant, while Vivi looked on slightly worried and Carue hiding behind her with a scared expression.
Clearly noticing their expressions, Gohan walked over to them to help make them feel better, "Hey, don't worry. If things get bad, I'll make sure nothing happens to us."
Vivi simply nodded, but her expression didn't change, "I know, but I can't help but worry that something bad is going to happen."
Carue quacked in agreement, hiding behind Vivi as he begun to sweat like crazy, clearly not a fan of being with such a giant...well, giant.
Gohan just smiled and reassured them again, "Did you guys forget about what I told you about me and what I can do? I'll keep us safe so don't worry about it."
Vivi looked away with a slight blush, but looked back with a smile afterwards, "R-Right, I'm sorry Gohan-Kun."
The Hybrid nodded with his smile never leaving, returning his attention back to the giant as he watched Luffy jumping up and down upon wanting to eat some dinosaur.
Little did the trio know was that things were unknowingly about to become VERY dangerous.
-Meanwhile (Somewhere else in the dense jungle)
In another part of Little Garden, at one of the many rivers floated a giant turtle with a woman standing on top of its shell as it was revealed to be Miss All Sunday who was heading to her arrival point with another member of Baroque Works.
She was originally heading towards Baroque Works's Hideout to meet up with Mr. 0, but that all changed upon getting a call from said agent.
-Flashback...
After leaving the Straw Hats, Miss All Sunday sat down on her chair with a sigh of releif as she had quite the most unique session with them and their newest member.
Gohan...I can already imagine you will be a most interesting person to learn more about, Miss All Sunday thought to herself.
She knew that there was something very special about him, I mean, it's not often you met someone who was somehow able to catch onto her lie so easily.
Normally it would have her very worried since that meant they were dangerous, but...there was something about Gohan that...didnt give her such a dangerous feeling.
She had to learn more about him when they meet again in the future.
As her turtle floated in the sea and she was about to take a sip from her drink, her portable Transponder Snail went off.
Curious as to who it was, she answered the call, "Yes?"
"Miss All Sunday...where are you currently right now?"
She immediately recognized the voice as her partner and boss Mr. 0 who sounded rather ticked off at the moment which she of course had to make fun of, "Oh, by what do I owe you calling me at this time Mr. 0?"
A rather angry growl was heard on the other end, clearly telling her he wasn't in the mood, "I don't have the time for your games right now. I'm calling because I need you to take care of something."
Miss All Sunday raised an eyebrow upon hearing that, Strange...something must have him really ticked off if he needs me to take care of something else instead of coming back to base like he planed.
"Oh? And what would that be?" Miss All Sunday asked.
Mr. 0 proceeded to explain, "I tried to make contact with Miss Valentine and Mr. 5 about how their mission went, but I haven't gotten any feedback from them nor the unluckies. I'm led to believe whoever it is with Princess Vivi is one that must be taken care of."
Miss All Sunday hummed at his order, "Am I doing this alone? Or am I to have a partner for this?"
"I'm sending Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek to meet up with you at Little Garden. I trust that you and the others will make sure that this threat with the princess is dealt with," Mr. 0 told her.
Miss All Sunday hummed again, this time with a smile, "Of course. I'll make sure it's all handled."
Without another word, Mr. 0 cut the line as he got back to his business, leaving Miss All Sunday to think over her new mission.
Her smile never left though as she would again be meeting up with Gohan once more, Looks like I'll be seeing you again shortly...Gohan.
So setting a course for Little Garden, her turtle led the way to the island, ready to begin her new mission.
-Present...
Eventually as she finished remembering her session with Mr. 0, her eyes caught sight of a large house made of wax up ahead and smiled, "Looks like they're already here."
Her turtle coming to a stop at the house, Miss All Sunday hopped off her turtle and onto the island, walking up to the wax house before her.
Entering through the doorway, she knocked on the wall with a smile, "I'm here~."
In front of her sitting on a wax chair in the middle of the house was her partner for this new mission, Mr. 3 as he took a sip of his cup of tea, "Welcome Miss All Sunday. We're glad you made it in one piece."
Sitting in another chair beside him was a little girl who currently was eating a rice cracker was Miss Goldenweek, looking at her with a blank expression, "We've been waiting for you to come so we can begin the mission."
Miss All Sunday simply nodded, taking a seat as she crossed a leg over the other, "So, what's the plan? I imagine you must've come up with a plan while I was on the way here."
Mr. 3 nodded, "Indeed I have. You see, I plan on taking out these...threats as Mr. 0 put it one by one. I've gotten a look at some of these people we will be taking down and set up fake wax figures of them around the jungle to lure them in and capture them."
Setting his cup of tea down, he continued on, "Once we've captured enough of them, I'll trap them all together to lure in the remaining ones and we kill them all."
"And I'll use my paint to make sure they aren't given any chances of being able to stop us before it's too late," Miss Goldenweek added in.
Miss All Sunday nodded, "I see. So then what shall you have me doing?"
"You'll be going for Princess Vivi," Mr. 3 told her, "You do well in kidnapping victims, so I leave her to you."
She simply nodded again with a smile, knowing that she'd meet Gohan again since the two seemed to be together from the last time they met back on the ship.
"Very well. You'll handle in capturing the crew, and I'll make sure the princess is safe and sound," Miss All Sunday replied as she stood up from her seat, "Well, I'll be off then to take care of my end~."
Mr. 3 simply nodded, before turning to Miss Goldenweek, "You'd best get set up as well. I'll be heading out to go see if they fell for any of my traps."
The girl nodded, finishing up her rice cracker before heading out, "Best of luck you two."
Thus, Miss Goldenweek headed off into the jungle along with Miss All Sunday, the plan being put into motion.
Mr. 3 in the meantime, got up from his seat and headed to a window as he took another sip of his tea, Once things are done here, we can finally finish things and continue on with Mr. 0's plan...side stuff like this is so tedious to do.
He'd make sure that the princess and her friends were taken care of here and now.
Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him entering his wax house and sighed in annoyance, "Did you forget where I told you to go? I told you to go set up near where the giants are Miss Goldenweek."
"Like I need a human like you to order me what to do," A rather gruff and old sounding voice was heard.
"Wha-GLHK!"
Without warning, a green hand grabbed him by the neck and he felt himself being pulled to the source of the hand at a quick and fast pace.
Finally coming to a halt, Mr. 3 finally got a look at the person before him and...felt fear creep up his spine as all he saw was some kind of green monster before him wearing some purple round hat on his head.
"W-W-What in the world are you?!" Mr. 3 asked fearfully.
The green monster grinned, "Like you need to know since you're already dead."
Eyes widening more in fear, Mr. 3 watched it bring its other hand up and it was aimed right at his head!
"W-W-WAIT!!! P-PLEASE DO-"
*STAB!*
The voice of Mr. 3 quickly died down as the hand of the green creature thrusted right into his head, blood dripping heavily onto the floor as Mr. 3 was dead.
Pulling his hand out and letting the dead Mr. 3 fall to floor, laying in a pool of blood, the green creature smirked as he could sense his target on the island just like he had been told.
"So...looks like the brat is here like Fu mentioned...I'll finally get my revenge on that whistling bastard for nearly humiliating me against his father," The green creature said to himself.
Now ready to enact his revenge, the renegade super namekian Slug was prepared to face off against Son Gohan once more...planning on making him suffer.
Things were about to become far more dangerous than things had been back at Whiskey Peak...and Gohan would need to be ready to defend his new friends once more.
To Be Continued...
