Thank you to all those who reviewed and enjoyed my story! I will make sure that this story is very attention grabbing and exciting!

As said before, I am able to update so fast is because the plot of this story is adapted from an existing one, so I can easily think up of what to do next.

Chapter 22: The Appearance of Powerful Enemies! Metal Gear REX!


The Flying Fox is still stomping through the streets of Alias Square, taking down everything tossed at them. "Keep going!" commands Bluto. "At this rate, we will reach the courthouse in no time!"

"Nothing can stop us now!" says Captain Falcon.

A bunch of soldiers appear on a rooftop and aim their cannons at them. Suddenly, Punk appears behind them without a word and slits them with his pincers.

"Whoa… That guy sure is shocking…" says a Stray Fox guy.

More soldiers appear from the top of the buildings. Pork jumps into the sky and lands on top of that building very hard, and the entire building is flattened under his weight.

CRASH!

"Wow! That guy is even more shocking!"

Pix takes out an orb and throws it into the air, and the orb emits a bright, blinding light. While it is still flashing, Pix presses a button on the strange-looking belt he has around his waist, and several shadow versions of himself appear! The shadow clones jump down to engage the soldiers. "My invention is neat!" Pix says to himself.

Suddenly, a powerful blast hits the front part of the Flying Fox, shattering the cockpit! "YA! What was that!" cries a SF guy.

"Who did that!" asks Bluto angrily. Then they all feel a tremor that seems to be coming towards their direction.

"Something big is coming…" says Pichu.

"Good! Time to own somebody!" says Wario.

Then from behind some buildings, a giant two-legged machine appears into the scene! Its body is shaped vaguely like the head of a dinosaur and it has several mounted guns all over its body. "YAAAAAAAAAA! WHAT IS THAT!" screams everyone.

"It's the Metal Gear REX!" exclaim the soldiers. "Now victory is on our side! Yippee!"

"They sure play dirty on us for unleashing something that big!" says Bluto.

"Whatever it is, we'll destroy it!" says CF, punching his palm.

"Oh right!" says Wario.

REX turns to their direction and shoots out a large missile. "Ah! It's going to hit us!" scream the SF guys. But then Marth jumps forward and swings his sword at the missile, and the missile breaks down into small pieces and drops to the ground! "Wow! He cut a missile into pieces!"

"Piece of cake," says Marth, and then he jumps towards Metal Gear REX and slashes its body rapidly. He drops onto the ground and expects metal plates to fall down, but nothing did. "Huh? It did no damage?"

"It's useless!" say the soldiers. "REX's armor is impenetrable! He has only one weak spot that we're not telling!"

"Looks like this will be tougher than expected…"

CF jumps up and throws a powerful Falcon Punch at the front part of the REX, but it didn't do much besides leaving behind a burn mark. "Dang! This thing sure is tough!"

REX begins moving forward again while firing its guns. When the bullets impact with the Flying Fox, it bore many holes into it. "Ah! The Flying Fox is going to get destroyed at this rate!" gasp the SF people.

"Damn! This thing is dangerous!" cries Bluto.

"But I'm more dangerous!" shouts Wario as he charges at the leg of REX. "Shoulder Bash!" He hits the side of the leg hard and bounces off it. "Ya! How come I can't smash through it? I have trained myself strong enough to smash through steel!"

"Smash through steel? Go it!" Marth grabs the handle of the Durandle and levels it up to Level 2. "This should do the trick!" He performs several powerful slashes at the outer covering of REX, but to his surprise, it didn't do much to it besides leaving behind a few scratches! "WHAT!"

"Argh! Then take this!" CF begins punching against the air rapidly until he arms catch fire, and then he throws both his fists forward. "Falcon Double Punch!" The punches shot out a blast of fire that consumes REX. But even all these, REX only took a few steps back and continue firing at them. "What!"

REX then shoots out several missiles into the air and it drops back down at the Flying Fox, blasting off several parts of it. "Ah! Let's get out of here before we get blown up!" cries Bluto, and all the SF people and everyone else evacuate the Flying Fox.

"Damn! They shall pay for ruining our beloved airship!" says a SF guy angrily.

REX lifts up its foot and stomps the ground hard, creating an earthquake that knocked everyone to his feet, and then it shoots everywhere with its guns. "Run and hide!" cries Bluto. "Leave this to the Smashers!"

"Right! Leave it to us!" says CF. "We will handle this ourselves!"

"We must assist you too," says Punk. "As that is the mission assigned to us!"

"Let's us help find the weak spot!" says Pix.

"Don't bother! I can handle this giant piece of scrap metal myself!" says Wario. "Head Charge!" He runs forward very fast and hits one of the legs. The impact is so powerful that it knocked Metal Gear REX onto its knees! "Ha! What did I tell ya?"

But REX stood back and lands it foot on top of Wario, crushing him underneath.

"WARIO!" gasp the others.

REX lifts up its foot and Wario can be seen flattened underneath. "Heh heh… That was nothing…" mumbles Wario.

"There's gotta be way to handle this thing!" says CF.

"The soldiers said it has a weak spot," says Marth.

"Now that you said it… When I used Falcon Double Punch to consume it with flames, it actually flinches and took several steps back. Did the flames burn its weak spot?"

"We'll have to find out where it is then."

Inside the Judiciary Tower…

"So… Should we eat or not?" asks Kaku while looking at his Devil Fruit.

"So that's what a Devil Fruit looks like! Chapapa!" says Fukuro, looking at the brightly colored fruit with odd markings all over it.

"Yoyoi! I have never seen one in all my life!" says Kumadori.

"Kaku! Califa! Think twice before you eat them!" says Jabura. "If you end up with a lame power, then you will regret all your life! It is better to sell them for over 1 million dollars!"

"Jabura is just jealous that Kaku will get stronger than him after eating the fruit. Chapapa!" says Fukuro.

"Yoyoi! Jealousy is what a man should not have!" says Kumadori. "It can be the downfall to oneself!"

"You guys shut up!" Jabura shouts at them.

"You do not know the power of the Devil Fruit until you ate it," says Lucci. "Whatever power you get, it can get very powerful if you put training into it."

"Sounds interesting," says Califa.

"Why don't we give it a try?" suggest Kaku.

"You guys aren't serious, are you?" asks Jabura. "You're going to regret if you get odd and lame powers!"

"Why don't we say it is like a bet?" says Lucci.

"Why not? I love to bet!" says Kaku, and he proceeds to eat his Devil Fruit, and Califa does the same also.

"Waaaaa! You ate it!" cries Jabura. Fukuro and Kumadori watch with great interest.

After eating up the entire fruit, Califa and Kaku begin to feel strange. They hold the hands over their mouth and stomach, and begin to act like they're suffering.

"Hey! Are you guys all right?" asks Jabura.

After a bit of acting strangely, they both reply, "It tastes awful…"

"That's it!"

"Quick! Tell us! What did you feel?" asks Fukuro.

"Yoyoi! What power do you have within you?" asks Kumadori.

"I don't feel a single thing," replies Califa.

"So do I," says Kaku.

"Try testing your powers," says Lucci. "You'll find out soon what it is. If you put practice into it, you'll sure to become a potential fighter! It also adds more power to us CP9!"

"By the way, where's Blueno?" asks Kaku.

"He went out to join the festival," replies Califa.

On the rooftop of the courthouse…

Blueno and Mario are confronting each other. "Do you know what you are doing by trespassing into this place?" Blueno asks him.

"Yes, to rescue my friend-a!" says Mario.

"You do not understand at all. This is one of the highest authority government locations in the world. Invading this place is similar to declaring war to the whole world."

"We're just here to rescue our friend-a. We're not going to have war or anything."

"How many times must you hear this to understand that your friend is a criminal that should be put to death for the sake of the world?"

"You government-a people sure are selfish! You do not-a understand da meaning of friendship!"

"You do not trust in the government also. We are doing this for the sake of true justice. Sacrifices are necessary for peace to return to the world."

"Da kind of peace I prefer is spending a happy time with my friend-a! Now move outta my way so I can rescue Samus!"

Blueno lets out a sigh and says, "Looks like I'll never get it through your thick skull. I've already showed you my powers back in Otaku Weapon Center, and it is clear that you cannot beat me."

"Well, I feel like-a I can theez time," says Mario while doing some warm-ups. "Now I'm gonna start-a!"

"Bring it on then."

Mario jumps up into the air and begins spinning very fast.

"Tekkai."

Mario then performs a flying kick towards Blueno. "Anniento Crush!" His foot hits Blueno in the face and Blueno is knocked back onto the floor hard.

WHAM!

Note: Anniento is Italian for Destroy.

Blueno gets up and gasps, "What! He broke through my Tekkai! He wasn't this powerful back then!"

Mario gathers fire in his palm and runs at him.

"Soru!" Blueno quickly zips off at a blinding speed. The instant Blueno disappears, Mario turns around and thrusts his flaming palm forward, and it directly hits Blueno in the body and sends him backwards.

BANG!

"UGH!" cries Blueno in pain.

"When you used da fast moving move," says Mario, "you reappeared behind-a me, so I figured that-a you would do da same this time!"

Blueno gets up and glares at Mario. "Why you…!"

-

Back in the square…

The Smashers are violently attacking every part of the Metal Gear REX to try and find its weak spot.

"Zap Cannon!" shouts Pichu as he shoots out a large electric ball. The ball hits the body of REX and simply disappears. "It's not working!"

Pit fires an arrow at REX, but it did nothing too. "Even my light arrows won't work!"

"Big Belly Flop!" Pork jumps up into the air and lands on top of REX really hard. Though it pushed the mech downwards, it did not do much damage. "Incredible… It survived my big fat body!"

Punk jumps up into the air and shoots laser in every direction. "Laser Firework!" The lasers hit REX and bounce off the body, but one of the laser hits a certain spot and made a small explosion, which causes REX to flinch, and it grabbed Punk's attention. "Hmm!"

"Dang! How do we destroy this thing?" asks CF.

Punk drops down next to him and says, "I may know something now… When I used Laser Firework, I noticed that the laser hit the left shoulder of the mech and did something to it."

"So you mean the weak spot is the left shoulder?"

"Possibly…"

"Then let's aim for that spot!" CF runs towards REX and jumps up into the air. REX fires a large missile at him, but CF lands on top of the missile and runs up it, and jumps into the air again. "Falcon Punch!" He delivers a strong punch into the left shoulder and shatters the armor around it. This causes the REX to shake around in pain. "It's doing something!"

"Then take this!" Yoshi throws several eggs at the damage on the shoulder, and it seems to do even better. "It sure is working!"

"Everyone! Let's aim for that spot!" says CF. Everyone else listens to him and begins concentrating their attacks on that spot. After enough hits, the shoulder explodes and the cockpit in front of REX opens!

"Oh no! They have exposed the real weak spot!" cry the soldiers.

"The real weak spot, eh?" asks CF. "Then let's go for there!"

"No! Let me do it myself!" says Yoshi. "I want to use a cool technique using my Meteor Mace! Level up!" The spikes on his mace then grow longer and sharper. Yoshi jumps towards the cockpit of the REX while spinning really fast, and a wide energy aura surrounds him as he spins. "Meteor Mace Saw!" He hits the cockpit and begins cutting through it like a buzz saw until he cuts through the entire mech all the way to the other side!

"WOW!" exclaim the others upon seeing it.

Yoshi lands on the others side and the entire mech break in half and stops working. "Yoshi! I did it!"

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THEY DESTROYED METAL GEAR REX!" scream the soldiers.

"All right! They did it!" exclaim the SF guys.

"Good job, Yoshi!" says CF. "Let's get going!"

"I'm sure the Flying Fox still works!" says Bluto. "Let's get back onto it!"

Suddenly, a large iron ball flies in from nowhere and hits the Flying Fox hard, shattering a huge chunk from it.

"Yikes! Someone just damaged the Flying Fox even more! Who did it?"

From the dark alleyway, you can see a large shadowy guy holding a chain & ball weapon. "Guilty…" he says.


TO BE CONTINUED…

And thus they destroyed Metal Gear REX, but they also lost their Flying Fox too. Will they get through this mess that is thrown at them? And will Mario hold himself against Blueno? And what powers have Kaku and Califa gain? So many questions, right?
