Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or One Piece.
A/N: Sorry Ninja in the Web isn't up, when seeing how close I was to this week I decided to work on the others. The only ones I'm not 100% sure will be up is the Star Wars as I got another beta and they have limited time on the computer at the moment and the USM due to still needing to write out 4 episodes.
If that is the case I can still write out another Ch for Shinobi on Board and my RWBY story I would have said this, but starting to catch up to the anime as the next 10 eps are canon/recaps to what Luffy did on Dressrosa, Alabasta, and Fishman Island.
And there is a couple of filler eps during Wano so far so it's like 100/just under that so I'll see you all on this story on the last week of Jan, or the first week of Feb.
Chapter LXXXVI.
Last Time.
Whole Cake Island.
Mont d'Or and Niwatori are talking about how long the fight between Luffy and Katakuri has been going on, showing the time as 9:30 pm, which is six and a half hours since the start of the fight. Stussy and Morgans come into view, with Morgans saying how it would be big news if the Straw Hats got away as Stussy then reveals that it was the Tamatebako that destroyed the chateau.
Mirro-World Luffy Vs. Katakuri.
Luffy shot multiple punches at Katakuri who allowed them to pass through him to break the mirrors on the wall before throwing punches at Luffy.
Just ahead, a girl was watching with a group of men with one having a crossbow sniper.
She appears to be a lanky young girl with dark hair in a very long ponytail that curls up at the end. Her ponytail is held up with a flower-shaped hair tie. She's wearing a dark red shirt with a frilly high collar and frilly long sleeves, dark red tights, and light-colored loafers.
Over her clothes, she has a polka-dotted outfit that balloons out like a jelly bean and allows her to bounce around.
Flampe, the 36th daughter of Charlotte.
She starts boasting about how she won the best younger sister award, and how she wants Katakuri's affection. She and her subordinates try to kill Luffy, but her sniper can't get a clear shot. As a response to this, she stabs him in the head with a fork.
Now.
Mirro-World, Luffy Vs Katakuri.
Luffy manages to predict Katakuri's attack and counter it, which surprises Katakuri as he realizes that Luffy's Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki) is developing. However, Katakuri manages to lay more hits on Luffy after this, and as Luffy attempts to see whether Katakuri will attack with Mogura or his mochi donuts next, Katakuri notes that Luffy's precognition is not as developed as his own and attacks with both.
Luffy does his best to dodge the attacks, but his fatigue begins catching up with him and, despite occasional good moves, he continues to be overwhelmed. Luffy eventually ends up lying on the ground, and Katakuri tells him not to get up, saying that the Big Mom Pirates had heard about his plan to meet with his crew on Cacao Island and are lying in wait for him there if he somehow manages to emerge from this.
However, to Katakuri's surprise, Luffy does not see this as a problem. As the two of them continue fighting, Flampe believes the fight will finish soon as she aims at the unsuspecting Luffy with her blowgun.
Luffy dodges a kick from Katakuri before kicking at him with a Haki-infused kick that went through Katakuri's ribs. Luffy landed before dodging mochi tendrils from Katakuri before being hit by one and was sent flying back."Stop getting up. You have no chance!" Katakuri stated as Luffy stood up. 'This baka's (Fool's) Haki is getting as good as mine!' He thought just as something hit Luffy's leg forcing him on his knee.
He then thrusts his trident at Luffy who dodged but was still hit in the left side having him scream out in pain.
Earlier, Fire Tank Pirates.
On the Nostra Castello, one of the chefs reveals that he neglected to add frosting roses to the top of the wedding cake, and could not do so now that the cake was otherwise complete. The chefs begin to panic, but Sanji then steps in and offers to do it. Using Sky Walk, he flies to the top of the cake and adds the frosting roses perfectly, causing Pudding, Chiffon, and the chefs to celebrate.
With the cake now completed, Sanji looks forward to seeing his crew again, but Pudding's sadistic side comes out and suggests that the crew might already have been killed, much to the horror of her more pleasant personality when she is reprimanded by Chiffon. She, Chiffon, and the chefs then collapse from exhaustion, and Bege looks forward to Big Mom eating the cake, saying there is no need to poison it as he hopes that Big Mom will die from its deliciousness.
The Sunny.
Naruto opened his seventh gate as the others got ready to protect the ship as Big Mom flew to them. Chopper activates Monster Point to deal with her but is quickly overwhelmed and injured by Big Mom's sword strikes with Napoleon. Prometheus breathes fire at the Sunny, forcing Naruto, Nami, and Brook to work to stop the oncoming flames.
The Sunny crew refuses to go down without a fight, but Prometheus then expands massively before being directed to the sea by compressed air in the shape of a tiger. "Hirudora! (Daytime Tiger!)"
Naruto then dropped down and panted as Jinbe says that the sun homie is too big to stop with seawater. Nami then notices the Nostra Castello approaching, and Big Mom catches the scent of the wedding cake. The Sunny crew rejoices as she heads toward it, and Bege prepares to lure her toward him.
Sanji agrees that he can do whatever he likes to her after she eats the cake, and he prepares to head to the Sunny with Pudding on Rabiyan. Pudding bids farewell to Chiffon and is happy to see her sister living happily with the people she loves. Chiffon tells Pudding to not lose the source of her happiness, causing Pudding to become tense as she looks at Sanji.
She and Sanji then fly off toward the Sunny, with Rabiyan going fast enough to avoid detection. Sanji reunites with his crewmates immediately after reaching the Sunny, and wonders where Carrot and Pedro are, to which Brook lies that they are both resting below deck.
Meanwhile, Perospero notes that this situation is intended to split up the Big Mom Pirates. He looks at the cake and gets worried about it, knowing that Big Mom needs to eat it to save everyone from her rampage, but also knowing they will all be in danger if the cake turns out to be poisoned and kills her. He then receives a call from Bege as the Sunny crew begins to head out to Cacao Island.
Whole Cake Island.
On Whole Cake Island, Mont-d'Or expresses his disbelief that the Whole Cake Chateau's collapse was the Straw Hats' doing, and Count Niwatori says that if they are this good at planning, they might pull off something unexpected. Swearing to not let that happen, Mont-d'Or contacts the Tartes, telling all of them to go to Cacao Island and bring an end to the Straw Hats.
Later, scores of Tarte ships arrive to besiege it; the people who arrive are skeptical that this much force is necessary and some do not even believe Luffy will escape Katakuri and the Mirro-World, but Oven points them to Mont-d'Or, who tells them via Den Den Mushi about the Straw Hats' responsibility for destroying the Chateau.
Oven tells his crew to destroy every mirror on Cacao Island so that if Luffy arrives he will come from the lone mirror remaining right in front of them. The people are reluctant to destroy their valuable mirrors, but Oven says they can throw them into the water, threatening to kill the families of anyone who does not comply.
Later, several of Oven's brothers and sisters arrive to join his cause. His army now numbers in the thousands. He looked to the former Sweet Commander Snack was there as well.
Snack is a very wide man with a long nose, dark black hair tied in a bun that's been dyed red with a hairpin that has three jewels through it, and a dark blue tattoo above his right eye. He's wearing a yellow woolen jacket resembling sheep's wool and the sleeves are bright orange with his name "SNACK" printed on it.
He has a dark black scarf with thin orange stripes on it and has armor plates with two belts on each side on his arms, dark black pants with thin orange stripes while has two suspenders hanging each side of his waist, and dark brown shoes with red socks. His head is rather small in comparison to his body.
Fire Tank Pirates.
Out at sea, Bege calls Perospero, and the former says that they will put an end to Big Mom's hunger pangs with the cake, pointing out that Pudding made it. Perospero is still suspicious that the Fire Tank Pirates will try to assassinate Big Mom again and tells Bavarois that their fleet will pursue Big Mom and Bege while Smoothie's fleet continues pursuing the Straw Hats.
Perospero contacts Smoothie to tell her about this plan, saying that her fleet should sink the Straw Hats before they reach Cacao Island. Smoothie, her sisters Citron and Cinnamon, and her subordinates then prepare to attack.
While sailing away from Big Mom, Bege says that he cares more about escaping than assassinating Big Mom, but Chiffon reminds him they have a debt to pay to the Straw Hats and so need to keep them safe from Big Mom.
The Sunny.
Naruto sat on the bench around the mast leaning his arm on his leg as he heard Nami speak up on the Big Mom Pirates knowing they know they're heading to meet Luffy. "No changing the plan now." They looked back at Naruto who was still panting. "If we're not there to at least for me to go over to grab Luffy, then he will die."
While coming u with a plan, they noticed Smoothie's ship coming to them before Sanji explains an idea he thought of while coming back to the ship. He and Pudding get on her carpet to fly to Cacao Island ahead of the Sunny. Carrot then walks up before Jimbei steers the ship out of the way of an attack from Smoothie having the others fall to the deck.
They looked to see Smoothie glowing and growing before swinging her sword to have another attack come their way. She threw several waves of energy that Jimbei dodged by sailing quickly to the left and right.
Mirro-World.
Katakuri stands over an unmoving Luffy, lamenting at how the pirate had faltered right as he was starting to respect him. Luffy, still alive, however, remembers training his Haki with Silvers Rayleigh. Luffy then wakes up and pulls himself up, much to Katakuri and Flampe's surprise. Flampe attempts to attack Luffy again, shooting a numbing needle ten times as strong as the last one.
Luffy manages to see it coming and dodge it but ends up falling over afterward, causing Flampe and her subordinates to laugh uncontrollably. Despite their attempts to subdue it, Katakuri ends up overhearing them and begins to realize that he and Luffy are not alone. Flampe and her subordinates continue laughing as Luffy weakly tries to get up after being utterly pummeled by Katakuri, to the point where they do not even attempt to conceal themselves anymore.
Katakuri notices Flampe's group and then realizes that she assisted him in injuring Luffy. He walks toward her, and as she imagines him praising her for what she did, Katakuri in reality is angry at her interference, thinking that it would make his victory cheap. Katakuri reaches Flampe and proceeds to stab himself with Mogura in the same place he struck Luffy, which horrifies Flampe as a little of his blood lands on her face.
Katakuri then removes his scarf and shouts at his sister to not patronize him and Luffy and interfere in their fight. Flampe's shock quickly turns into derision, as she mocks her brother for his display of weakness as well as his mouth, comparing it to a pelican eel's. Her subordinates get in on the mockery, and they decide to expose his appearance to the rest of Totto Land to make everyone lose their respect for him.
Although he remembers being bullied and receiving the exact same insults for his mouth as a child, Katakuri simply turns around and heads back to Luffy without saying a word as Flampe's group continues jeering and takes pictures of him. Katakuri then confronts Luffy again, and the two of them agree that the people on the sidelines are annoying as Flampe threatens to shoot both of them with her blowgun.
They then each unleash their Haki, causing Flampe and her subordinates to be knocked out. "I no longer…" Katakuri spoke taking his jacket off and got in a stance. "Think you're weaker than me!"
"Arigato! (Thank you!)" Luffy thanked him before they dashed to each other for a punch, hitting each other's cheeks.
The Fire Tank Pirates.
The Fire Tank Pirates worry about Big Mom being in hot pursuit of their ships, but Bege is confident that they can outrun her especially since they have nearly reached Liqueur Island. However, Chiffon then says that they cannot go there, as it is too close to Cacao Island and would give Big Mom time to get there before the Straw Hats manage to escape.
Chiffon says they should go on to Funwari Island instead, and with her intent on repaying her debt to the Straw Hats even if it costs her her life, Bege agrees to his wife's request and changes course to Funwari Island, much to the horror of his crew.
Mirror World.
Luffy remembered his training again before being punched to the floor by Katakuri's attack. He gets back up remembering Rayleigh's words to him during a break before closing his eyes. He then sees Katakuri's attacks before dodging them having Katakuri look on in shock before Luffy dashed at him. They then traded punches before Luffy was hit by a flaming fist that Katakuri shot from his mochi.
Luffy got back up and had then trade punches again before Katakuri kicked Luffy and dodged a punch from the rubber teen. Luffy got up and traded punches with Katakuri for another time. "Straw Hat!" Katakuri yelled as they broke off.
"Nani? (What?)" Luffy panted as he looked up.
"I can still fight!"
Luffy got into a stance as he looked at him with one good eye, the other swelling. "Me, too!"
After fighting each other for several minutes, Luffy then bit into his arm before speaking. "Gia Fōsu: Suneikuman! (Gear Four: Snake-Man!)"
Sanji And Pudding.
Sanji and Pudding fly to Cacao Island, and Pudding's sadistic side is heavily conflicted about her close proximity to Sanji. Sanji makes preparations to get onto the island and rescue Luffy without being seen. Later, as they draw very close to Cacao Island on Rabiyan, Sanji orders Rabiyan to suddenly stop, causing Pudding to almost fly off, but Sanji grabs her.
He and Pudding then look through binoculars at the fleet and army gathered on and around the island, noting that there is enough military power to destroy it. They try to think of a way to get in without being detected and decide to have Rabiyan quickly fly low to the ocean to get past everyone's radar.
Nitro binds Sanji and Pudding to Rabiyan to prevent them from falling off, and Pudding becomes infatuated with the idea of holding hands with Sanji. Rabiyan flies very low to the water, preventing anyone on the ships from seeing them, and they successfully make it into the town.
Mirro-World.
Katakuri stared at Luffy's new form. Luffy's forearms, legs, and upper torso are only slightly enlarged and the rest of his body retains its normal proportions. The spread of Haki is slightly less, as it does not appear to extend onto Luffy's shoulders and upper body. Luffy's hair becomes flame-shaped like his Haki and sticks up.
Instead of steam, this form produces a gaseous substance appearing as a mix of steam and fire and like its other counterparts also seems to be draped over his shoulders like a scarf while in this form. His fists also flex differently, with the first knuckles being extended.
Luffy then shot out his left fist having Katakuri doge by leaning to his left. 'Why would he do a simple attack after all this time?' He thought before his eyes widened as he coated his left cheek just as Luffy's left fist hit him back a few feet. Luffy shot his right arm forward having Katakuri doge before coating his arms to block the same fist that attacked at another angle. 'Nani's (What's) going on? Why is it coming from the side?!'
Luffy shot his left arm having Katakuri doge it again before glancing to see his fist bending at various angles before coming back to him. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Karuvarin! (Gum-Gum Jet Culverin!)"
Katakuri blocked it having him get sent back before Luffy jumped at him. Luffy then assaults Katakuri with rapid punches, but Katakuri transforms into mochi and avoids them as he rolls toward Luffy in a donut-like shape.
Upon reaching Luffy, Katakuri transforms back into his human body as he turns one of his arms into a massive spiked mochi club imbued with flaming Haki, and he slams the club into Luffy. "Zan Giri Mochi! (Sliced Mochi!)" He then spins Luffy around for several moments before slamming Luffy into the floor breaking it.
After a moment, Luffy shoots back up and throws his fist again. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Karuvarin! (Gum-Gum Jet Culverin!)"
Katakuri was able to block and deflect most of Luffy's punches before hitting him back. They then throw a punch that hits each other at the same time having them fly back from each other. Luffy then jumped up and compressed both of his arms before unleashing them in a rapid strike, moving his arms up and down to give the impression of multiple arms moving to attack. "Gomu Gomu no Burakku Manba! (Gum-Gum Black Mamba!)"
Katakuri blocked most of the punches getting hit several times before he dashed at Luffy and kicks him with his spiked boot. Luffy hit the wall before bouncing back as Katakuri turned into a doughnut and rolled at Luffy who got into a stance. "Gomu Gomu no Kingu Kobura! (Gum-Gum King Kobra!)"
Luffy compresses his arm, and as he releases it, having his arms loop around himself once before sending his now enlarged fist flying at Katakuri hitting his fist sending a shock wave around them. Right as Luffy and Katakuri hit each other with their final blows, Brûlée manages to free herself from her rope bindings. To keep Luffy from escaping the Mirro-World, she decides to run off and join Oven's group on Cacao Island.
Luffy shrank back to normal and passed out as Katakuri fell back before forcing himself to fall on his stomach.
Cacao Island.
Oven's army waits for activity to happen, and Newshi ponders the possibility of Luffy beating Katakuri. Oven and several other siblings admonish him, refusing to believe Katakuri could be beaten. However, they do think that Luffy could capture Brûlée and run away from Katakuri when his crew arrives at 1 AM, and so are waiting to ambush him.
In a nearby alleyway, a hidden Sanji observes the army's movements, saying he will need to move as soon as Luffy comes out of the mirror for them to have a chance of escaping. He tells Pudding that this will be their farewell, and remarks how they met oddly. He remembers his experiences with Pudding, from seeing a picture of her for the first time to resigning himself to marriage with her, to acting through the marriage ceremony in preparation for her attempting to assassinate him, and finally to making the second wedding cake together.
Sanji reaches out for Pudding to come to him, and her violent personality briefly manifests and rejects him, causing her kind personality to become distraught. Sanji remarks that even though Pudding started out as his enemy and had once planned to assassinate him, he is still glad she was his fiancée, causing her to burst into tears.
After calming down, Pudding asks Sanji for one last favor, and she plucks his cigarette out of his mouth before moving in closer to him.
At 12:40, Morgans notes that the Straw Hats still have not been caught and remarks that their ever-likelier escape will be a big headline. Mont-d'Or quiets him, saying that the Big Mom Pirates have put aside their pride and have gathered thousands of their forces to take down the Straw Hats. He says that once the Straw Hats are caught, they will be beheaded to serve as an example, and Stussy remarks about his brutality.
Fire Tank Pirates.
At 12:43, Big Mom and Prometheus have gotten close enough to the Nostra Castello to start burning its sails, and the Fire Tank Pirates beg Bege to dispose of the cake and flee. However, Bege says that they all came from different places, and now is the time to remain steadfast and die together if necessary, and Chiffon can see their destination Funwari Island coming into view.
The Sunny.
At 12:45, the Crew notices that Smoothie stopped attacking but was still chasing them. "Seems like they stopped attacking," Naruto said looking back before hearing Jimbei.
"There is an ambush on Cacao Island! They'll probably start attacking again there to sandwich us!"
Brook tries to negotiate with Smoothie to see her panties but fails as Nami hits him with her staff. She then looks back and says that they will make it to Cacao Island at 1 AM on time, but worries that Luffy will not, noting that he will have to use Brûlée to escape from the Mirro-World. However, she and the crew continue to believe in him.
Mirro-World.
At 12:47, Luffy pulls himself out of the sinkhole and struggles to walk as he heads for Brûlée. Katakuri then stands up in front of him before speaking. "Are you going to come back… To take down Big Mom someday?"
"Of course I am! Because I'll… Become King of the Pirates!"
Katakuri smiled at that. "You're seeing far into the future!" He then passes out and falls on his back having Luffy look on in shock before placing his fedora over Katakuri's mouth and leaving.
Luffy then goes to where he left Brûlée, only to see that she is gone. However, he then overhears her wailing over Katakuri's defeat, and comes face-to-face with Pekoms, who has disguised himself with a pink face mask and captured Brûlée. After realizing Luffy knows who he is, Pekoms says that he is going to help him escape to honor the wishes of Pedro's sacrifice, and carries him and Brûlée toward the sole mirror to the island.
Pekoms tells Luffy about how he can activate his Sulong form by staring at the full moon, and says he will do this on Cacao Island to rampage and distract Oven's army. He reveals that nobody can bring him to his senses except for the now-deceased Pedro, but is intent on honoring Pedro's memory by helping Luffy escape.
Brûlée says that Pekoms and Luffy will be overwhelmed by Oven's army even if Pekoms activates Sulong, but Pekoms ignores her as he jumps into the mirror.
Cacao Island.
As the clock strikes 1 AM, Pekoms emerges from the mirror holding Brûlée, with Luffy nowhere in sight. The members of Oven's army are extremely confused, and Pekoms holds Brûlée at gunpoint to keep them at bay while he gazes at the full moon and transforms.
His eyes turn blue, his mane and tail tassel grow tremendously in size, and his body grows thicker and more muscular to give him a more feral appearance.
Oven lights Pekoms' gun on fire to get him to drop it before punching the mink, resulting in Luffy being outed from under Pekoms' costume. Some of the Charlotte Decuplets attack Luffy, and he dodges their strikes by jumping over a building, but Raisin leaps up to him and prepares to strike him with his sword.
Sanji then comes and kicks Raisin into a building, and the Big Mom Pirates watch in shock as Sanji carries Luffy through the air. Sanji asks Luffy if he beat Katakuri, which Luffy confirms. The decuplet males then use Geppo to confront Sanji and Luffy in the air, but as Sanji attempts to dodge their strikes, Pekoms unleashes the power of his Sulong and takes out all of the decuplets.
However, in his feral rage, Pekoms ends up attacking Sanji and Luffy as well, but as they look at him after being sent crashing into a roof, he hears Pedro's voice calling out to him, causing him to regain his senses. Pekoms tells Sanji to take Luffy to safety, and the lion mink returns to the ground and resumes attacking Oven's army.
Only to have several of them impale him with spears as Oven orders them to shield his eyes from the full moon, bringing his rampage to an end. Sanji looks back in worry over Pekoms, but his distraction allows Yuen to smash him and Luffy into the ground. The Big Mom Pirates then surround Sanji and Luffy and prepare to shoot them, but their attention is quickly diverted by the Germa Kingdom arriving and attacking their fleet.
Ichiji, Niji, Yonji, and Reiju then don their Raid Suits and fly toward the island, and they shield Sanji and Luffy from the Big Mom Pirates' bullets. "Why are you here?!" Sanji asked his siblings before Ichiji spoke.
"What a coincidence, Sanji. We wanted to give these bakas. (Fools.) A crushing blow, too!"
Later, The Sunny.
Naruto jumped up in the air to grab Luffy and Sanji before landing on the deck. "Let's move!" Naruto yelled as the other ships fired at them.
Suddenly the Germa ship appeared before they heard Judge yell. "What's so good about him? Straw Hat Luffy! This is Yonko's (Emperor's) Big Mom's Territory… Once you've entered you'll never be able to get out! You risked your life just to get him back?! Sanji is Germa's failure! His skin doesn't work as a shield! He works as a cook because he has no pride in his royal blood! He's easily moved like an idiot and his soft mind makes him put his life on the line for the weak! A failed soldier who is far from perfect… That's all he is!"
"Goodbye! Arigato (Thank You) for the help!" Luffy yelled back before ignoring Judge.
The crew then quickly finds themselves in trouble again, as they see another massive Big Mom Pirates fleet coming toward them from the front. This new fleet consists of Paddle Ships that can rapidly approach their target, and as the crew is forced to deal with their new onslaught, Smoothie's ship gets close enough from behind that Daifuku can attack the Sunny with his genie.
Naruto fends off the genie's attacks with his knives, but the Sunny is surrounded by hundreds of ships. However, the sea suddenly begins to rise underneath the fleet, and Wadatsumi bursts out of the water. Jinbe promptly dives underwater, where he sees his former crew the Sun Pirates.
He wonders why they came back to help, and they declare that they will serve him until he and the Straw Hats can make it out of Totto Land. They then go on the offensive, with Wadatsumi swatting away ships with his massive arms while the rest of them use their weapons to disable the Paddle Ships and confront the Big Mom Pirates onboard.
Smoothie and Daifuku continue pursuing the Thousand Sunny from behind, and Daifuku attempts to attack it with his genie again. However, Aladine uses Fish-Man Karate to hit the genie's halberd with a powerful stream of water, disarming it. The Sun Pirates successfully open up a path for the Sunny to sail through, and they bid Jinbe goodbye as he helms the ship to freedom.
Suddenly, Oven arrives on one of the ships and starts to glow before heating the waters having the Fishmen dive deeper to get away from the heat. With the Sun Pirates out of the way, the Big Mom Pirates resume their assault on the Sunny, and the Straw Hats struggle to defend against the barrage of cannon fire coming for them. Eventually, they come face to face with the Queen Mama Chanter and its barrage of cannonballs.
Suddenly, Wadatsumi grabs them just as the cannonballs got to them, and switched the Sunny for another ship to fool the Big Mom Pirates. Wadatsumi puts the Sunny in his mouth and drinks the water allowing them to breathe before swimming. And was hit by an attack from Oven forcing him to the surface and letting the Sunny out.
The Big Mom Pirates' fleet quickly turns to pursue the Straw Hats once more, but Wadatsumi stands between them and intercepts the cannon fire. He apologizes to the Straw Hats for his actions on Fish-Man Island, and thanks Jinbe for having later allowed him to tag along. He and the Sun Pirates had decided earlier out of gratitude to protect Jinbe until he left Totto Land with his new crew, and were willing to throw away their lives to accomplish it. Aladine then pulls Wadatsumi underwater, and the Sun Pirates rise up out of it, ready to battle the Big Mom Pirates' forces.
The Sun Pirates quickly get to work taking down their opponents, and when Oven tries attacking the Straw Hats, Aladine charges in and clashes with him. However, the Sun Pirates are vastly outnumbered by the Big Mom Pirates and are overwhelmed by the fleet's cannon fire as well as by Smoothie and Daifuku's abilities.
On the Sunny, Jimbei turns to the others. "Get the water out quickly! The ship is getting heavy and slow… Catch the wind at a proper angle, and advance as fast as you can! It will still take several hours to get out of their territory! Luffy… I can't leave them behind!"
"OK, I got it!" Luffy stood as he had a blanket around him.
Jinbe says that the crew will never leave alive if they cannot escape from the Big Mom Pirates' fleet, and he intends to ensure they escape by defending them from the rear. Luffy accepts this but reminds Jinbe that he is his captain and tells him to reunite with them in Wano Country at all costs. Jinbe then thanks him before diving off the Sunny to help his now-former crew one last time.
Later Just Outside Big Mom's Territory.
"Can I make your food?"
Sanji was then attacked by the others sans Naruto and Nami who watched before they all walked to the kitchen.
A few days went by before Luffy found a Raid Canister in his pocket and he as well as Chopper tried to make Sanji put it on. Only for the cook to deny the request wanting nothing to do with his former family. Luffy and Chopper unsuccessfully attempt to activate the canister and plead with Sanji again. He voices his dislike of scientific devices like that, and Nami wonders if he feels the same way about her Clima-Tact.
She then has Zeus emerge from it, and Sanji grows resentful of the cloud homie for being Nami's servant. "I was serving Nami-Swan way before you!"
"But I get to live in the baton which she keeps with her all the time!" Zeus spoke before they heard Naruto.
"And I sleep with her nightly."
They looked at Naruto's smiling face as his wedding ring gave a shine as he had his hands behind his head.
Carrot then receives a newspaper and goes down to show the crew. They see no updates on Jimbei, but find that Luffy got the majority of the credit for the assassination on Big Mom, as well as it saying Luffy beat her. And that he was considered to be the fifth Yonko (Emperor of the Sea) before seeing Naruto, Luffy, and Sanji's new wanted posters fall out.
"Huh? Guess we got new bounties." Naruto spoke as he picked his up and unfolded it. "EEEHHH?"
Nami picked it up before her eyes widened.
Wanted Dead or Alive: Uzumaki Naruto: 1,000,000,000.
"My bounty has increased to 330 million berries!"
Sanji exclaimed looking at his poster in pride that he was now wanted more than Zoro by 10 million before seeing that not only was he wanted dead again, but they added Vinsmoke to his name.
"It has increased because of Germa's bad name!"
Naruto saw him gain the same aura as when he got his first poster without his picture before seeing the poster.
Wanted Dead or Alive Vinsmoke Sanji: 330,000,000
He then looked to see Luffy also had a depressing aura. "My bounty went down."
"Luffy no one's bounty ever goes down. Maybe they put an old poster in the paper by accident…" Naruto trailed off as he picked Luffy's poster up. "Luffy… You read it wrong!" Naruto yelled before turning the poster around.
Wanted Dead or Alive Monkey D. Luffy: 1,500,000,000.
"NANI?! (WHAT?!)"
To Be Continued.
A/N: Thanks for reading and let me know of any mistakes.
For those wondering why now Naruto's isn't higher, it's because A: Luffy got most of the credit for the Big Mom assassination attempt, and B: He beat a guy with over a 1 billion bounty while Naruto just beat a guy who was 860 something million.
If you all like, please send Wano names for Nojiko, Emiko (Miss Goldenweek) Mai (Miss Valentine) Olive, Thane, Tate, and Kitchi. I hope I'm not forgetting someone due to being a long time since the crew's been together after Zou. I've had that feeling the last times' people asked about the crew here... Or send moves for anyone.
Sorry Ninja in the Web isn't up, when seeing how close I was to this week I decided to work on the others. The only ones I'm not 100% sure will be up is the Star Wars as I got another beta and they have limited time on the computer at the moment and the USM due to still needing to write out 4 episodes.
If that is the case I can still write out another Ch for Shinobi on Board and my RWBY story I would have said this, but starting to catch up to the anime as the next 10 eps are canon/recaps to what Luffy did on Dressrosa, Alabasta, and Fishman Island.
And there is a couple of filler eps during Wano so far so it's like 100/just under that so I'll see you all on this story on the last week of Jan, or the first week of Feb.
To those that celebrated it, I hope you had a safe and Happy Hannuka, and to those that celebrate it, I hope you have a safe Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanza, or whatever you celebrate, and if I don't put up a chapter of a story you read by then, I hope you have a safe and Happy New Year.
Next to be updated will be Shinobi on Board.
Nothing else to say.
Talk To You Later,
Lone Wolf Out.🐺
