This is the 51st chapter. Time for a third fight and it'll be Nami vs Ms. Double Finger.

READY! FIGHT!

Cyclone Advisory! Nami vs Ms. Double Finger!

In a Land of Oasis, a dry cloud of sand blankets the people with anguish. Some cling to hope, and others seek to destroy it. As their paths cross, they mark an era in every countries history that will forever be overshattered by sadness. Vivi and her friends continued their struggle to save Alabasta from its crisis. Sanji found himself at the mercy of Mr. 2, Bon Clay, the master of Ballet Kenpo, and fought a difficult battle. Fortunately, during the conflict, he was able to figure out the Clone-Clone powers weakness and finally emerged victorious. Meanwhile, Princess Vivi decided to destroy the royal palace in order to save the lives of the citizens. However, as the countdown til the explosion began, Crocodile appeared.

Alabasta, Alubarna

At the royal palace, Crocodile informed her that Luffy is dead which he didn't realize that the rubber captain barely survived from the quicksand with a mysterious help from Ms. All-Sunday, AKA Nico Robin. Of course, Vivi didn't believe him.

"Luffy dead?! Impossible!" Vivi shouts with a scowl. "I don't believe you!"

"Nonetheless, it's true." Crocodile states with a smirk. "Poor Straw Hat, buried in the sands of Rainbase, dear Ms. Wednesday. If only he hadn't got involved with you, he might live a long and happy life."

"You're a liar! He couldn't be killed by the likes of you!" Vivi shouts, not believing his words.

"You know, it's only because of his sacrifice that you're still alive to rave and rant at this moment." Crocodile mocks with a sneer. "You owe him your deepest thanks. That way, maybe he'll at least be able to..."

"Tell me where he is!?" Vivi demands with a growl. "Did you come here just to torture me?!"

Crocodile couldn't help but being amused of her with a sinister smirk on his face.

"He able to rest in peace." Crocodile mocks.

Vivi couldn't believe what Crocodile just told her which it left her with dread.

While at the Southwest side of Alubarna, Nami was able to hide next to the building from Ms. Double Finger, but she did hear a loud noise coming from the battlefield. Apparently, Vivi didn't get to stop the rebellion because of Crocodile arrived at the palace.

'I guess her plan must've failed. She wasn't able to stop the rebellion while Ventus was sniffing out the Baroque Works, but it still didn't stop the rebel army at the entrance. I wonder Vivi and the others are alright?' Nami mentally questions with worry, but she felt depressed. 'They're all fighting...putting their lives on the line...and here I am, running and hiding.'

Flashback

Before they made it to Alabasta, Usopp was making a weapon of his own when he's banging the handle of the frying pan with his wooden mallet. Chopper was napping while Nami already went inside of the kitchen which she wanted help from him.

"You heard me! I need help!" Nami shouts seriously. "I want you to build me a weapon!"

"Build you a weapon?" Usopp repeats, stopped working. "And what are you going to do with it, hide behind it?"

"Touche." Nami remarked, couldn't argue with that when Luffy crawled his way towards Chopper. "Okay, so I'm not a warrior, I'm just really cute with a great figure."

"Say what..."

"But even so...I at least want to be strong enough not to endanger the others, especially at this time. For Vivi." Nami continues sadly. "I only got a little formal training with Anna, but I'm still not strong enough."

Luffy the waved his hand, gesturing Nami to look which it got her attention when Chopper's nose was stuffed with chopsticks. It got Chopper to sneeze, causing the chopsticks to break and Luffy to laugh. Nami was in no mood for his childish antics when she tosses Luffy and Chopper out of the kitchen and tossing the buckets towards them. She then closes the door and turns to Usopp.

"Usopp, I know you understand how I feel, we're not like the others." Nami told him which Usopp knows that she's right, but he gets back on working his weapon. "They're all as strong as monsters, and to fight, they can rely on their own power to defeat almost any enemy. But us...we're just a couple of ordinary humans with no special abilities. When the battle starts, you and I are just in the way. We're a burden to the others, we can't even protect ourselves."

Usopp can only be silent while continued working on his weapon, but he knows that Nami's right.

"If we're gonna fight beside them, we need weapons. Really powerful ones, or else..."

Zoro, Anna, and Ventus have finished their training when they noticed Luffy and Chopper were waiting for Nami and Usopp to finish as they walk past them. Usopp then grabs a screwdriver and continued working on the weapon.

"...Isn't that the reason you're always inventing new weapons? So, you'll be able to hold your own in a battle with them without shame, am I right?" Nami asks, causing Usopp to stop. "It's the same for me, to help Vivi. I want to fight with my own two hands. Will you help me or not?"

"We don't have much time left until we reach Alabasta." Usopp points out with a sigh.

Nami couldn't help but widen her eyes, knew he was right as she sighed sadly.

"You're right. I guess you can't turn me into a warrior overnight." Nami states. "Sorry for being so unreasonable."

Just as when Nami was about to leave, Usopp spoke.

"Unreasonable? Maybe. But it's not impossible." Usopp said with a smirk, pulled his goggles up which it got Nami shocked. "Hey! Were you suggesting there's something the mighty Usopp can't do?"

"Yeah?" Nami said with a smile, turns to him which it got him chuckled. "Does that mean you're really gonna do it? I love you! Thank you, Usopp!"

"Now as to the matter of the cost, this won-"

"I really, really mean it! Thank you!" Nami thanked him again with the interruption.

"Yeah, we covered the gratitude part, but the top of the line, weapons aren-"

"I'm counting on you, okay?" Nami said.

"Hold on a minute!" Usopp protests, but Nami already left. "But, Nami..."

Flashback Ended

Then, Nami snapped out of her thoughts when the wooden pole tumbled down to the ground, causing her to duck down. She noticed that the wooden pole was down to the ground as she sighed with relief.

'What am I doing? I'm jumping at noises now.' Nami mentally thought, leaning against the wall. 'And after I shot my mouth off in front of Usopp like that. I'm ready aren't I? To fight for Vivi!'

Nami then pulled herself up with the new weapon she was holding. She then look around to see if Ms. Double Finger is coming which she was inside of the building.

'After all, Usopp kept his promise.' Nami mentally thought. "Okay, I'll fight. If it's just that one woman, I should be able to-"

And just before Nami finished her sentence, Ms. Double Finger pierced the wall and Nami's arm with ease, sent her flying with a grunt and crashed against the ground. Ms. Double Finger then pierce the stone wall, making a hole. Nami then turns to her weapon as she grabs hold of it as the stone wall tumbled down, revealing Ms. Double Finger.

"Give it up, girl." Ms. Double Finger suggests with a smirk, walk towards her while swaying her hips. "It's useless."

'Ms. Double Finger! But what was that spear-like weapon she used? Did she have Devil fruit powers too?' Nami mentally questions while holding her shoulder as Ms. Double Finger stops.

"I know what you're thinking." Ms. Double Finger said as she raises her arm, using her Devil fruit power to sprout long and sharp spikes from the fur-lined cuff. "You're right, I ate the Spike-Spike fruit. It granted me the power to release spike from anywhere on my body."

'Spikes that can pierce right through a solid stone wall! If I slip up just once, she'll make a pin cushion out of me and that'll be the end of the story.' Nami mentally thought with a warning as she pulls herself up.

"What?! Don't tell me you're actually going to try and fight me?" Ms. Double Finger asks with shock.

"Yes." Nami answered simply as she turns it into a bo staff.

'It can call upon clouds, it can summon forth the rain, it can create the wind itself! My marvelous invention can cause disaster! With its elemental power-'

"Stay away or feel the force of my Clima-Tact!" Nami shouts, readied her bo staff.

"Clima-what now?" Ms. Double Finger asks in confusion, but Nami makes her first move when she swings her bo in the face, leaving her stumbled.

Nami then had the chance as she detaches her staff and started swinging her short staffs, unleashing her flurry of smacking and bashing against Ms. Double Finger. She then delivers a spinning heel kick to the face, knocking her out.

'Good thing I've learned a thing or two of acrobats from Ivan. Thus, I was able to learn how to use the staff and short staffs from Ventus and Anna before we reached to Alabasta.' Nami mentally thought. 'I hope it was enough to beat Ms. Double Finger.'

At the royal palace, the royal guards tried to break through the door to help Vivi and Chaka.

"Try again! Save the princess!"

And they did, but no avail. They then tried another method when they're about to bring the cannons.

"Dieciseis Fleur" Ms. All-Sunday approaches the other side of the gate as she uses her Devil fruit power to sprout sixteen arms at the gate.

It got the royal guards spooked when they stepped back a bit. One of the royal guards was curious as he looked at one of the arms close, but Ms. All-Sunday used her power to guard the royal guard, slamming him against the gate and grabbed hold of the polearm, tripping the royal guard. The royal guards were forced to retreat, but they were tumbled down to the stairs and down to the ground.

Crocodile and Ms. All-Sunday walked out of the royal palace with Cobra around his arm which it got Vivi and Chaka's attention.

"Maybe now we can have a little peace and quiet." Ms. All-Sunday states with a smirk, causing Vivi to scowl.

While back at the Southwest side of Alubarna, Nami dodged and block Ms. Double Fingers spikes with her Clima-Tact. She then jumps and rolled out of the way as she then attaches three Clima-Tact pieces together to form a triangle when Ms. Double Finger charges after her.

"For sunny weather: Fine Tempo" Nami aims at Ms. Double Finger as the doves magically exit the triangle and fly towards her.

Ms. Double Finger steps back and tried to swat the doves away while Nami charges after her, delivers a punch in the gut. Ms. Double Finger coughed the air and stumbled back.

'Even with those doves, I'm able to use them for the diversion. What I want to know is why did Usopp have me use those doves? I'll ask him after the fight is over.' Nami mentally suggested as she then readied her staff.

"I'll admit, you're good, but it's not enough to defeat me." Ms. Double Finger groans as she sprouts her fingers with spikes. "Now, why don't you be a good girl and stay right where you are? That way, I'll be able to kill you without causing you too much pain."

Nami then scowled at Ms. Double Finger as she readied her Clima-Tact, putting it into a Y-shape.

'Okay, I'm gonna have to time it right as Anna said. If I don't, then I'm done for.' Nami mentally thought.

"Finger Stinger" Ms. Double Finger then charges after Nami as she was about to slash her.

"Thunder Tempo" Nami counters then pressed two buttons as the boxing glove punches out and delivers a punch to the gut, sent Ms. Double Finger flying and crashed against the ground.

Nami then runs as she hide next to the barrels, but Ms. Double Finger pulls herself up with a groan.

'Not what I've had in mind, but it worked anyway. Now, I'm gonna find out why did Usopp put doves and a boxing glove in there. I thought I told him to make a weapon, not some piece of junk.' Nami mentally thought as she starts reading the instruction. "Hmm, what's this?"

"So, I'll kill now, okay?" Ms. Double Finger suggests which she was anchoring herself to a ceiling of the stone bridge through spikes on her high-heels.

"How is she doing that? And why?" Nami muttered with a glare, turns to her as Ms. Double Finger gets off the bridge while positioned herself into a ball.

"Hedgehog Stinger" Ms. Double Finger sprouts spikes in all direction, giving her appearance of a sea urchin.

Nami quickly dodges while Ms. Double Finger crashes into the ground, destroying the barrels.

"Too close!?" Nami exclaims as she lands on the ground, but Ms. Double Finger starts rolling along. "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Wait! Hold on!"

And then, Ms. Double Finger rolling towards Nami which it causes her to quickly run. Nami kept pleading Ms. Double finger to stop, but those words deaf in her ears.

'I can't stay out in the open like this!' Nami mentally shouts as she tries to find somewhere to hide. She then run towards the plank, jumps over the window, and went inside of the building. However, Ms. Double Finger changed her course as she rolls right into the wall.

'This is it! Time for you to get skewered!' Ms. Double Finger mentally shouts.

"No...Thank you!" Nami shouts as she took off the cloak and covers Ms. Double Finger, causing her crash down to the floor as she took her chance to escape.

Ms. Double Finger then calls the spikes back, and uncovers herself with a scowl on her face.

"Well, it looks like she's got a little more battle experience than I thought." Ms. Double Finger muttered. "Not that it'll help."

Nami was able to hide next to the crates while catch a little breather, then looks through her instructions.

"Where is it?" Nami questions herself with a pant. "I saw it, there is something that looked useful. Somewhere in these Clima-Tact instructions. Dammit, where?!"

'That's it! Next time you're at a party and things are slow, just use these little tricks I've written up and things will really start to jump. People will love 'em!'

That got Nami's face pale, and jaws dropped when she read those instructions which it's definitely not something she had in mind.

"I'LL KILL YOU!?" Nami yelled in anger.

'Oh by the way, I've jotted down a few battle configurations on the back.'

"On the back?" Nami repeats as she looks at the instructions, noticed there's more information about the Clima-Tact which has a battle configuration.

"Let's see, where could you be hiding yourself this time, little kitty?" Ms. Double Finger questions, looking for Nami at the alley.

Nami then revealed herself with a laugh and taking her sash off which it got Ms. Double Finger's attention.

"I'm through running and hiding! I may not look at, but during my 8 years as a thief, I survived all kinds of crisis all by myself!" Nami declared with a smirk, readied her Clima-Tact. "You can't treat me like some ordinary girl! Now bring it on, hussy!?"

"My, my, kitty found her claws." Ms. Double Finger said with unamused tone. "Well then, show me what you've got."

"You got it! Taste my real power!" Nami shouts as she detached her Clima-Tact into three.

'The battle configurations of the Clima-Tact: First, understand the characteristics of each section. Each one can shoot off air bubbles, either by shaking or blowing.'

Nami then starts blowing the red bubble of heat air that drifts toward Ms. Double Finger.

'The first shoots hot air: Heat Ball'

"What's this? It's warm." Ms. Double Finger states.

Nami then uses the other pole as she blows the blue bubble of cold air that drifts toward Ms. Double Finger.

'Next shoots cool air: Cool Ball'

"Ahh, how pleasant." Ms. Double Finger sighed with comfort.

Nami then uses the third pole as she blows the yellow bubble of electrified air that drifts toward Ms. Double Finger.

'The last shoots electricity: Thunder Ball'

"Oh my, that tingled." Ms. Double Finger states, touched the tunder ball.

'Of course, these techniques aren't quite finished yet. So, if you use them at parties, you need to be careful.'

"THEN WHY WRITE THEM DOWN?!" Nami yelled with white teary eyes and shark-like teeth.

"Look, are we done here?" Ms. Double Finger questions with annoyance, tapping the pipe to get the ash out as she then sprouts a long spike from the bottom of each foot. "Sewing Stinger"

Ms. Double Finger then charges after Nami, but she then throws her short pole right towards her and hits the Baroque Works agent right towards the neck, causing her grunt and fell down to ground. Nami then caught the pole.

"Well, good thing I've learned how to throw a weapon." Nami muttered, then read through the instructions. "But I really need something that can be used for battle, not parties."

"If you're looking for something useful, you should've taken me seriously." Ms. Double Finger growled with anger. "I really had enough of these games."

And just as Ms. Double Finger charges after Nami again, the navigator quickly puts the two poles into an X-shape as she swings it like a bat and the X detaches the electric pole and flies spinning together towards her. Ms. Double Finger was able to catch it, but with the amount of force, she was sent flying and crashed against the ground. The X returns to Nami and attached to the electric pole.

"I see, the heat ball and cool ball joined together. When they stop spinning, the bubbles hit each other and creating an air flow, generating a powerful wind." Nami said with a smile, looking at the Clima-Tact. "Brilliant, Usopp!"

'The Cyclone Tempo is like an ordinary boomerang. So, if you take it outside after the party to play with, you'll have to watch out.'

"He really doesn't get it!?" Nami growled with annoyance. "But, let see here, maybe I..."

Ms. Double Finger grunts while pulled herself up and moving the destroyed crates.

"What kind of weapon is that?!" Ms. Double Finger growled with a question as she walked towards Nami. "Don't you dare turn your back on me!"

When Nami was about to turn, Ms. Double Finger impales her with her long-fingered spikes.

"To turn your back to your enemy in the middle of a battle. You didn't value your life too highly." Ms. Double Finger states with a scowl.

Then, the dove flew out of the bridge and right towards Nami which it got Ms. Double Finger shocked that it was an illusion. Nami revealed herself from behind her with a smirk on her face and holding a dove.

"I changed the air density by using a cool ball, the temperature difference caused a fraction of light known as..."

"A mirage?!" Ms. Double Finger guess with a growl. "No way! At this distance?!"

Nami then sent the dove flying and it flew towards the sky.

'We can't win with power. If we're gonna survive, we gotta use our brains. That's how we fight, right?'

"Used probably, this can make miracles. I'd say this is a perfect weapon for me." Nami states, causing Ms. Double Finger to snarl as she readied her Clima-Tact. "Okay, Spikey, I'm ready! Now why don't you give up?!"

While at the royal palace, Cobra was placed against the wall and his elbows was impaled at a metal stakes.

"No, father!?" Vivi shouts with horror.

"Let the king go, Crocodile! At once!" Chaka demands.

"Now, now, after all the trouble I went through to immobilize him like this, you really think I'm just gonna turn around and let him go?" Crocodile rhetorically questions with a mockery, lights up his cigar. "Use your head, it's not gonna happen."

Chaka couldn't help but growl with a scowl on his face. Cobra then opened his eyes and turned to his daughter.

"Vivi, I'm sorry...I failed you." Cobra apologizes. "And the nation...I didn't...use the chance you risked your life for."

"Oh, father." Vivi said in teary eyes when Crocodile walk towards the king.

"Come on, is this the best you can do after years apart?" Crocodile mocks, turns to Vivi. "Anyway, Ms. Wednesday..."

"DON'T CALL ME THAT!?" Vivi yelled at him when Crocodile puffs the smoke out of his mouth.

"Let me tell you a little something, I have no intention of keeping you or your father alive. When a kingdom dies out, it only seems natural, it's royal family should die out as well." Crocodile states, causing Vivi to scowl as he then approaches Cobra. "Don't you agree? But first, before I take the throne, there's something I need to ask the current king. If you have a moment, that is. In fact, this has been my goal from the very beginning. Cobra, tell me, where' the Pluton?"

It got Cobra widen his eyes with deep shock on his face, beginning to realize why Crocodile caused the conflict, the drought, and the rebellion after all these years.

"How can...you know that name?!" Cobra demands when Crocodile chuckled.

'What is he talking about? Pluton? What is that? I don't have a clue.' Vivi mentally thought in confusion.

"Pluton, according to legend, it can completely obliterate an island with just one shot." Crocodile explains, imagines Alabasta destroyed by Pluton. "An ancient weapon whose power rivals that of a God. It's somewhere in this country, but you've already knew that, didn't you, your highness?"

Cobra can only give a silent respond with a growl.

"An ancient weapon? Alabasta has such a thing?" Vivi questions with her eyes widen. "And father knew about it?"

"Perhaps it is a secret pass down with the throne." Chaka told her.

"Acquiring Pluton has always been my goal." Crocodile points out. "With it, this peaceful country will become a military powered to be recon with under my rule."

"Your rule?! You're not this countries monarch!" Chaka remarked.

"Oh, but I soon will be, and once I'm on the throne, it will be easy to bring all of the pirates in this area under my umbrella." Crocodile mocks. "With such influence, eventually, I'll gain more power than even the World Government itself. No one will dare cross me!"

"The World Government would never allow you to wield that much power!" Cobra growled.

"You're right, they wouldn't." Crocodile agrees, raised his golden hook. "So, where is the Pluton? Tell me!"

"I don't know where you heard that name, Crocodile, but I don't have the slightest idea as to where it could be found!" Cobra told him. "I'm not even certain it ever existed, let alone if it's hidden in this country! It could be a myth for all I know!"

"What you say probably isn't a complete lie." Crocodile agrees as he puffs the smoke out of his mouth. "I have considered that possibility for a while now. That Pluton may have never existed, there are those who believe it's just a fable, but I believe that it's real. What noisy insects!"

Apparently, the royal guards were trying to get to the gate which it rendered them helpless because of Ms. All-Sunday's Devil fruit powers.

"If my timing's correct, the rebel army should break through the defenses and reach that square in approximately 20 minutes, where they'll clash with the royal forces." Crocodile declared with a smirk. "And then in just half an hour, at 4:30, their battle will be interrupted by a bomb I've ordered to be fired at the square."

Cobra, Vivi, and Chaka couldn't help but gasp with horror when Crocodile told him of his plan to destroy Alabasta.

"Please don't, I'm begging you!" Cobra pleads.

"Oh, and it's no ordinary bomb, but one so powerful, it will destroy everything within a 5-kilometer radius." Crocodile finished, leaving Vivi dropped her jaws in shock.

"If you do that, everyone..."

"That's right, no one from either the royal army or the rebel forces will survive. They'll be wiped out and the battle will be over." Crocodile confessed with no shame, causing Cobra to snarl. "Aren't you happy? You should be, after all, you're the one who wanted them to stop so badly. Since I'll be ruling from this palace, there's no need to blow it up just to end their fight. It's easier just to blow both armies up instead, this land's worth more than they are."

"How can you be so callous toward them?! What do these people ever do to you to deserve this, huh?!" Vivi yelled angrily. "They have lives, and families!"

"Who cares?" Crocodile said callously.

"You don't have to kill them, Crocodile!" Vivi shouts.

"Perhaps I'll change my mind if the king answers another question." Crocodile suggested, causing Cobra to growl as he then turns to the king. "There's a poneglyph in this country, your majesty, where is it?"

"'Ponegylph'? What are you talking about?" Vivi questions in confusion.

"If you promise to spare them, I'll tell you where it is." Cobra pleads which it got Crocodile smirked. "I'll...even...show you."

Vivi then widen her eyes with a gasp in dread.

"Father..." Vivi muttered as Crocodile laughed.

"Just what I'd expect from a king, you're a wise man." Crocodile mocks.

"Enough!" Chaka snarled, readied his sword and had enough of Crocodile. "I cannot take another second of this!"

Crocodile is starting to lose his patience when he turns to Chaka and using his Devil fruit powers to turn himself into sand.

Meanwhile at the Southwest side of Alubarna, Nami kept blocking Ms. Double Fingers spikey arms with her Clima-Tact, but she was being pushed and about to get skewered as she quickly ducks down and sweeps her legs, causing the Baroque Works agent to fall to the ground. Nami then ran while Ms. Double Finger pulled herself up and chased after her.

'Listen Nami, the Clima-Tact is a weapon, but you have to rely on a stronger one to use it, your brain. You gotta think to survive a battle. Remember, your mind is the real weapon.'

'Right, think! Let's see, I've got Heat Balls and Cool Balls! All I need to do is take advantage of their characteristics and combine them!' Nami mentally exclaims as she turns to the right, knocking the barrels which Ms. Double Finger destroys them. Nami then leaps over the wall and hides for a breather while looking through the instructions.

'One last thing, Tornado Tempo. This is the center piece of the whole weapon.'

"'Tornado Tempo?'" Nami repeats.

'Okay, here's the deal. As long as your enemy is human, they won't be able to stand after being struck by it, but it's a last resort and you'll only get one shot. If you miss, it's over.'

"If I miss, it's...over." Nami repeats after finished reading the instructions.

"Pay attention!" Ms. Double Finger shouts when she sprouts her fingers into spike, causing Nami to yelp as she uses her Devil fruit power to trap her against the wall by sprouting her arms and breasts into spikes. "That little gadget of yours is interesting, but it's not a weapon. Here some advice, sweetie, if you can't use it to attack, it's nothing more than a toy. The day that thing can be called a weapon is the day you can finally hurt someone with it. Now..."

Just as Ms. Double Finger sprouts her mouth in a spike, Nami was able to quickly dodge before she pierced the wall. Nami then turns her Clima-Tact into a Y-shape again.

"Thunder Tempo" Nami then pressed two buttons as a small boxing glove punches out and delivers a punch in the rib, sent Ms. Double Finger flying and crashed against the crate. "And that day is now."

'Now that I've got time to think, I have to distract her somehow so she can't dodge the Tornado Tempo.' Nami mentally thought. 'What do I have to work with? Uh...There are three different types of air bubbles, yet extreme dry weather of this country, but that's all. If only there is just a little more moisture in the air. Wait, moisture? That's it! This thing has a rain technique.'

"Rain Tempo" Nami then pressed certain buttons on each piece, holding a piece on each hand while balancing the third on her head as the water spouts into the air. Ms. Double Finger pulled herself up with a groan, but she noticed Nami spouting water with her Clima-Tact.

"Water tricks?" Ms. Double Finger states with a sweat drop.

"Rotating Sprinkler" Nami then spins around while dampen the air with water.

"Desperate." Ms. Double Finger muttered.

"NO, I'M NOT! I'VE GOTTA PLAN, YOU'LL SEE!" Nami yelled with white eyes, tick mark on her head, and shark-like teeth, stomping the ground repeatedly.

"I don't think so, I've had enough of your party tricks." Ms. Double Finger remarked as her hair turns into a ball of spikes. "And speaking of parties, time to end this one. Sea Urchin Stinger"

Ms. Double Finger charge after Nami when she keeps blowing the number of 'Heat Ball' in the air.

"Now why don't you be a good little girl for me and die!" Ms. Double Finger shouts as she was about to skewer Nami, but the navigator quickly dodges and have her hit the wall instead.

Nami pulls herself up and turns over her shoulder, noticed a circular hole in a stone wall.

"If that had been me instead of the wall, oh man!?" Nami exclaims when Ms. Double Finger walked out of the hole.

"Since you showed me something interesting earlier, it's only fair that I return a favor." Ms. Double Finger states as she sprouts her fingers into spikes.

"Nows my chance!" Nami said as she starts blowing the number of 'Heat Ball' and 'Cool Ball' into the air while Ms. Double Finger stabs herself in the shoulders. 'Hot air rises while absorbing moisture. When it collides with cold air that's descending, it rapidly cools, and the moisture gets frozen. And then...'

"Now, Spike-Spike: Doping" Ms. Double Fingers arms begins to enlarge and become extremely muscular, causing her sweater to get torn apart.

Nami then turns and noticed Ms. Double Finger charges after her arms sprouted in spikes.

"I told you your life was over, didn't I?! Stinger Flail" Ms. Double Finger then swings her arms which Nami quickly ducks and causes her to hit the stone pillar.

Then, the stone ceiling fell apart and about to hit Nami, causing her to scream in panic.

Meanwhile at the Southeast side of Alubarna, Usopp has finally regained his consciousness after Chopper tried the methods between shaking him, smacked him in the face repeatedly, and the sticky bun which the third option worked. Chopper pulled himself out of the sand and turns himself into 'Walk Point' to give Usopp some support while heading for the gate.

"These wounds are nothing, Chopper. Just point me at the direction of the battle, nothing can stop Usopp, Brave Warrior of the Sea." Usopp suggests with a groan. "I'll keep fighting, even if my arms get ripped off or my nose gets broken."

"If you keep talking so much, you're gonna cause internal bleeding." Chopper warned him.

"I'll shut up then." Usopp suggested with a hum when Sanji arrived outside of Alubarna.

"Well, well, you're alive." Sanji said with a smirk, earned their attention.

"Sanji!?" Usopp and Chopper exclaims in unison.

"You're hurt." Chopper points out, noticed his injuries while Usopp sat on the ground in a lotus position.

"So, does this mean that you beat up Mr. 2?" Usopp inquires.

"You better believe it." Sanji answered, tossed the goggles to Usopp. "Here."

"My, my goggles...So, you got 'em back for me from that creep, huh? Thank you, Sanji. Oh, you're the best." Usopp states with a smile when he caught it and placed it on his head, but the goggles broke. "Wait a minute...THEY'RE BROKEN!? IN THAT CASE, I TAKE BACK EVERYTHING I SAID! THANKS FOR NOTHING, YOU JERK! AND THEY WERE THE LATEST MODELS, TOO! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT I HAD TO DO TO GET THESE THINGS?!"

"Hey, look at that." Sanji told them while ignoring Usopp's rambling.

"Whoa." Chopper said when they saw the rebel army is about to arrive at Alubarna.

"That must be the auxiliary force for the rebel army." Sanji states.

"There's more of them?!" Chopper exclaims shockingly.

"Looks like it. I guess Ventus and the others wasn't able to sniff out the Baroque Works while Vivi wasn't able to stop the fighting in time." Sanji said with a serious glare.

"This is just great!?" Usopp growled with frustration when he heard the sound of a camel which it got his attention. "What the hell? Hey, Eyelash, it's about time you showed up. Where have you been hiding?"

"Let's hurry to the palace. Maybe there's still a way we can help Vivi out. Come on!" Sanji suggests.

"Right!" Chopper replied as he and Sanji run for Alubarna.

"Usopp, move it!" Sanji shouts.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Usopp replied, but the camel walked away. "Hey, Eyelash, give me a lift! Wait, stop! Don't you see the bandages?! Help an injured man out, will ya?!"

Meanwhile, Nami was able to dodge but barely when she tumbled down to the ground her leg bleeding. Ms. Double Finger approaches Nami when the dust clears.

"At least that you're proven that you're a first-class expert at something, even if it is running away." Ms. Double Finger praised her with a smirk.

Nami tried to pull herself up with a grunt, but she noticed a small cloud above Ms. Double Finger's head.

'Oh right, the air bubbles!' Nami mentally exclaims, smiled. "A cloud! It's small, but it...formed!"

"Just what are you babbling about?" Ms. Double Finger demands with her hands placed on her hips as Nami stood up.

"It's still not large enough, though I've gotta make it bigger." Nami suggested as starts spinning the short poles, releasing the 'Heat Ball' and 'Cool Ball' in the air.

"I've had about enough of this!" Ms. Double Finger growled with impatience as she sprouts her arms with spikes while Nami walks back and spinning her short poles, making the cloud grow bigger. "Time to die! Stinger Flail"

Just as Ms. Double Finger swings her spiked arm, Nami was able to block her attack with her Clima-Tact, but she was sent flying and crashed against the ground.

"Tell me, are you prepared to die?" Ms. Double Finger asks with a smirk.

"How about you?!" Nami retorted with a smirk of her own, turns to her and readied her Clima-Tact.

"You're just bluffing, girl." Ms. Double Finger states, failed to realize that a cloud turns black as Nami uses 'Thunder Ball' to electrify the cloud. Ms. Double Finger then turns around and noticed a thundercloud above her.

"Am I?" Nami asks deviously.

Until, a lightning bolt strikes Ms. Double Finger, causing her to scream in pain while Nami ducks and cover. After a few minutes of electrocution, Ms. Double Finger was a mess which her hair is messy and spikey, covered in soot, and her body grows numb of electricity. Nami then turns around and noticed Ms. Double groans in pain, but she's now mad.

"You're dead meat!?" Ms. Double Finger growled as she charges after Nami when she balls her fist and sprouts in spikes, swinging her fist down and impales Nami. However, the illusion of Nami vanished. "What?!"

"Today's forecast calls for pleasant weather with stable humidity and mild winds. However, a high-pressure system will be moving in sometime during the afternoon. This could create some strange weather in one particular area. So, people in the vicinity need to watch out for mirages." Nami announces while pacing around and then stops as she turns to Ms. Double Finger, readied her Clima-Tact that was in T-shape. "And more importantly, for tornados."

'This is a center piece of the whole weapon, but it's a last resort and you'll get one shot. If you miss, it's over.'

'If I miss, it's over.' Nami mentally thought with a pant. "Tornado watch has been issued!"

Ms. Double Finger stood up with a scowl, not even convinced.

'I'll make it work, I have to! Vivi's been there for all of us! So, I'll be there for her!' Nami mentally declared, remembered Vivi helped her from the fever and the navigator comforts her in Yuba. "Sometimes it summons clouds, other times it makes rain fall, and could even produce wind, but there's one more special technique of the Clima-Tact. And I'm going to unleash it for Vivi's sake."

Just as Nami was about to move, she groaned in pain because of her leg bled up.

"Something the matter?" Ms. Double Finger mocks with a question, smirking. "Oh dear, looks like that left leg of yours is pretty injured. So much so in fact, I'd doubt you could run away. Sea Urchin Stinger"

Ms. Double Finger turns her hair into spikes as she charges after Nami, causing the navigator to block while placed her foot against her head, but it got her foot impaled by one of the spikes, causing Nami to scream in pain. Nami manages to stop her from charging, causing Ms. Double Finger to growl.

"This is...It's nothing! It doesn't hurt at all! Do you have any idea what kind of pain she's been going through?!" Nami groaned in pain. "Compared to Vivi...it doesn't matter if I lose a foot, or a leg or two, or even an arm! I don't care!"

Nami then pushes Ms. Double Finger away and aim the Clima-Tact at her.

"Now! Take this! Tornado Tempo" Nami's Clima-Tact on each end bright flashily as the clockwork doves burst out which it got her eyes widen with dread while Ms. Double Finger smirks and was about to kill her, but the clockwork doves wrapped her around with coils. Then, the Clima-Tact starts to spin rapidly and Ms. Double Finger with it. Nami was left completely stunned and confused as the Clima-Tact fires Ms. Double Finger right towards the wall with the centrifugal force, leaving Nami crashed against the wall. And just that, Ms. DOuble Finger was smashed into the wall and flies toward the other wall, leaving her knocked out.

Nami groans in pain while sat herself up, rubbing her head. Nami then look for Ms. Double Finger, but noticed the holes of Ms. Double Finger in the wall when the dust clears. She then pulled herself up and look at the hole in the wall, noticed the other hole in the wall and Ms. Double Finger unconscious. Nami then collapses down in disbelief, couldn't believe she defeated Ms. Double Finger as she smiled.

"It worked...I did it." Nami muttered. "Usopp, Vivi."

She then raises her Clima-Tact in victorious.

That's it for the 51st chapter.

Winner: Nami
