Chapter 44: Consequence

Haku and Gabriel managed to Shave around and avoided falling through the collapsing floor. They beat down armed guards as they charged passed the curtain and onto the stage of the auction hall.

"You blew the charges too soon! Hisoka could've been caught in the explosion!" Haku scolded as the duo dashed through the emptied auction hall.

"Hisoka is more than capable of surviving an explosion and then the collapse of the upper floors." Gabriel said nonchalantly.

The duo burst out into the hallway and armed guards opened fire on them. Haku flinched and created a mirror in his hands. The mirror reflected the bullets back and mowed down the armed guards.

"Holy shit!" Haku exclaimed.

"Not too shabby." Gabriel said as they continued down the hall.

Kitana and Franklin stood in the Air Dimension, the only ones who managed to slip inside before the floor collapsed. They moved quickly down through the building, unseen by anyone.

"What did you do?" Kitana asked as they went.

"What?" Franklin questioned.

"The quick task that you did for the boss."

"I went and freed the slaves in the sub levels of the building. The boss insisted on it." Franklin explained.

"Oh!" Kitana smiled.

"I simply freed them. They must fight their way out and gain their freedom with their own hands." Franklin responded.

Jinpachi, Faye and Machi landed on the floor below the auction hall in a hail of rubble. They looked across the room at Asuka, Yasui, Zika and Hama as they collected themselves.

"Where's the boss?" Jinpachi asked.

"Dunno." Machi said as she cracked her neck.

"The boy with the ninja hound put Sea Prism cuffs around the boss' wrists." Faye said and pointed a finger at Zika.

Zika grinned and flashed a key at the three Akatsuki members. "Come and get it." Zika said and dropped smoke pellets on the ground and smoke swallowed the room.

"Guys! C'mon, wake up!" Bulma shouted as she burst into the bedroom.

Mugen, Renji and Shuhei were already on their feet and getting ready.

"What was that explosion?" Shuhei asked.

"The Akatsuki attacked the auction hall." Bulma shouted.

Mugen gritted his teeth as he picked up his sword and walked toward the door.

"Mugen, are you alright to be moving around?" Bulma asked, concerned.

"The three of us have been laying here, wallowing in self pity and general anguish. I'm sick of it!" Mugen spat.

Shuhei grabbed his lower abdomen and winced. He looked at Bulma and said, "We've gotta do something."

"Listen, I was barely able to patch you guys up with the supplies I had. I swiped some high tech stuff but had to use it all to save you guys! You'll open all of your wounds again." Bulma pleaded.

"Mugen's right." Renji nodded and said, "I was stuck in my own head after my fight and I'm over it. We have to support the others."

Bulma nodded and smiled, "You're right."

Richter chased after Sakura down the stairs and blasted a Buster Cannon at her back. Sakura stumbled forward and Shaved into a hallway.

"Hand 'em over!" Richter growled as he Shaved after her.

Sakura looked over her shoulder and shouted, "Get 'em, girls!"

Eight women appeared around Sakura and barraged a flurry of blows that knocked Richter back. Richter moved to blast the women back and arms sprouted from his body and grappled him in place.

Richter grinned and his body began to swell. The arms that held him poofed into flower petals and the women dashed away as Richter exploded and destroyed the hallway. The smoke cleared and Richter watched as a tall green haired woman bit into one of the Devil Fruits; and a Longleg woman in a purple unitard bit into the other.

Both women gagged at the horrid taste of the fruits and Richter shouted, "Fuck!"

Sakura giggled and said, "Sorry, dude."

"Fuck this." Richter turned and walked down the hall to the stairway. He looked over his shoulder and said, "We'll meet again."

"I do hope so." Sakura said and walked the other way down the hallway with her crew.

Machi and Jinpachi cut through people and walls in their pursuit of the boys and dog. Faye erupted into slips of paper and fluttered down the hallways after them. The trio followed them quickly down the building and were slowly gaining on them.

Asuka, Yasui, Zika and Hama dashed down a hallway and burst into a stairwell. They bounded down the steps and over railings as they went.

They ran to the fifth floor and split up; Yasui, Zika and Hama ran out into the hallway and dashed either direction as Asuka continued down the stairs. Jinpachi and Machi chased after Yasui, Zika and Hama as Faye continued down the stairs after Asuka.

Asuka beat through armed guards as they ran up the stairs and Faye fluttered up around them. Asuka barraged a flurry of punches that passed through Faye and she sliced him into pieces with paper shuriken.

Asuka reformed and Faye struck him in the side with a kick that sent him tumbling down the stairs. Asuka jumped up to his feet and raised his fists up.

"Do you have the key?" Faye asked.

"Yeah." Asuka lied.

Faye stared at Asuka for a few moments and fluttered up the stairwell and left Asuka on the second floor.

Volcier walked slowly down the street and made his way to a park near the auction hall. The cuffs on his wrists were pure Seastone and he felt his powers being sapped away from him. He felt sluggish but pressed on to the fountain in the center of the park.

He stopped beside the fountain and looked around. Hisoka walked slowly out of the darkness and toward him.

"Oh, you survived the explosion. Did you run into Wakaba?" Volcier asked.

Hisoka shook his head and said, "This is our first encounter of the day."

"Hm?"

"I hired our friend that dealt with the Ten Dons once you were finished with him." Hisoka smiled and said, "His mythical Nine-Tailed Fox fruit lets him assume the form of anyone. He's been masquerading as me all day."

"I see." Vocier said glumly. "So then, it was you."

Hisoka nodded and said, "I gave the chain user information on Raizen and about our attacks on the auction hall. I've waited for this moment for a long time."

"You want to fight me?" Volcier asked and smiled sadly.

Hisoka nodded and slipped the ring from his left pinky.

"Sorry, Hisoka, not tonight." Volcier said and lifted his arms up, presenting his cuffs to Hisoka.

Hisoka frowned and his eyes twitched. He threw the ring to Volcier and turned around. Volcier caught the ring and watched as Hisoka walked silently into the darkness.

The lobby of the auction hall was flooded with raging slaves and armed guards. Gunshots and shouts echoed out as the slaves overpowered the armed guards and began flooding out into the streets.

Asuka, Zika and Hama slipped into the flood of slaves as they arrived in the lobby. The ceiling exploded and the three pursuing Akatsuki members landed in the mass of people. Machi held Yasui by the throat and held him up in the air as the dust settled.

As the lobby steadily emptied out, the Akatsuki looked across the lobby at Asuka, Zika and Hama. Machi threw Yasui on the ground and pointed her finger at him. She looked at Zika and said, "Toss me the key and wheel boy will live."

Yasui stared up at Machi as he gasped for breath. Zika reached into his pocket and pulled out the key from his pocket, "Wait!" Zika tossed the key and it skittered across the floor.

Machi attached a string to the key and yanked it to herself as Yasui scrambled up to his feet and made his way to the others. An Air Door opened behind the three Akatsuki and they skipped into the Air Dimension and slammed the door behind them.

A series of explosions rocked the floors above the lobby and more of the upper floors collapsed as the building shook. Asuka, Yasui, Zika and Hama dashed outside where the freed slaves beat through armed guards.

"All of you! What the fuck do you think you're doing?!" A voice echoed across the street and the fighting came to a sudden halt. The Warlord of the Sea and Head Proprietor of the Yorknew Auction, Inoue "Madam" Wakaba landed in the street and stared at the former slaves. "You haven't been purchased yet, get back to your cells!"

"Fuck you!"

"We're free!"

Former slaves aimed their guns and fired at Wakaba. She Shaved around quickly and dropped them with swift Finger Pistols. A woman clutching her child sped down the street and Wakaba Shaved after them; she appeared beside the woman and jabbed a Finger Pistol at her!

Asuka appeared between them and caught Wakaba's wrist! The woman kept running with her child in her arms as Asuka and Wakaba stared each other down. They exchanged a flurry of blows and leapt away from each other.

"Zika! Yasui! Find the others and let's get the fuck off this island!" Asuka shouted as the floods of people rushed away from the auction hall. Wabaka Shaved at Asuka and they exchanged swift blows as they leapt around the street.

Bulma, Mugen, Shuhei and Renji charged down the street toward the auction hall as the building shook and erupted on various floors. The group of them dashed down the street and saw the wave of freed slaves charging down the street toward them.

"What the fuck is going on?" Shuhei asked as they hugged the buildings to let the people pass them.

"Shit hit the fan." Mugen said simply.

"Hey, look!" Bulma exclaimed and pointed at Yasui, Zika and Hama running down the street.

"Guys!"

The two groups met with each other and Zika explained, "Asuka says it's time to leave the island."

"Yeah, shit has hit the fan." Yasui said and coughed.

Mugen nodded and said, "Told ya."

"Leave the island?" Renji questioned.

"The Akatsuki are leaving the island tonight." Bulma stated.

"Shit." Renji muttered.

"Where's Asuka?" Shuhei asked.

"He's fighting Wakaba!" Zika and Yasui exclaimed in unison.

"Fuck."

"What?!"

"Then we should make our way to the sea and wait for him to wrap things up." Renji said and nodded his head.

"Let's go." The group of them ran down the street, heading for the southern port of the island.

Volcier, Faye, Haku, Kitana, Gabriel, Franklin, Machi and Jinpachi walked slowly toward the abandoned church. Volcier opened the double doors and led them all inside. Jinpachi closed the doors behind them and they all focused on a figure in the dark.

Gabriel turned on a flashlight on his right shoulder and illuminated a black haired girl in a pink kimono. She sat on the chest of an unconscious and bound man in a leather outfit.

"Who are you?" Faye asked.

The girl smiled and said, "My name is Zoldyk Tatsuki. I'd like to join the Akatsuki."

"Oh?"

"I heard you were skipping town after you robbed the auction so I wanted to catch you before you left. It was a tough decision, honestly. I wanted to beat up my little brother but this was more important." Tatsuki said and nodded her head.

"What are you talking about?" Jinpachi scoffed.

"I heard a rumor that you guys can cut Devil Fruits out of people. Is that true?" Tatsuki asked.

Volcier smiled and said, "Yes, it's true."

Tatsuki grinned and said, "I want this man's Devil Fruit." Tatsuki smacked the man on the chest and stood up.

Volcier tossed a ring with a pink stone and Tatsuki caught it. "Wear it on your left pinky. You're with us now." Volcier said and walked slowly toward Tatsuki and the unconscious Feitan…
