A/N: Wow! This is my longest story chapter wise! All right, my longest story before this was New Lives R (which is actually complete)... word wise it's in third... to both New Lives R and New Lives (that's not a typo). I should point out that I'm not counting my join story, New Lives: Galactic Guardians, as there's two authors involved. Anyways enjoy the story, it begins the changes that will happen in this arc, while it's minor in this chapter, when the fight gets into full swing there will be major changes. Enjoy!
Chapter 51: Hostage!
Luffy, Naruto, Hinata and Vivi all looked at the giant. If what Kyubi said was true then what happened was caused by a Devil Fruit.
"What kind of Devil Fruit could make something blow up…" said Naruto.
"I have to say is that you're an idiot with a bad memory…" said Kyubi, "Honestly…"
That's of course when the Volcano blew up and Dorry began to get up.
"What do you think you're doing?" asked Naruto.
"Where do you think you're going Mr. Giant?" asked Luffy.
"It might kill you." Said Vivi.
"Don't go…" said Hinata.
"I can't disgrace the name pf Elbaf!" said Dorry despite being in lot of pain.
At the other Giant's place, Broggy had just left for battle.
"He sure enjoys going to his useless battle." Said Nami.
"Don't say it like that!" yelled Usopp.
"So…" said Ino, "What are we going to do? The Log pose does take a year to set"
"We should head back to the ship and come up with a plan." Said Nami.
"We I don't think we'll be able to go back to ship where the dinosaurs are!" yelled Usopp, "After all I can't handle those things I don't think that anyone else in this group can handle it."
Kiba touched his dog partner who became his clone, Akamaru jumped behind Usopp and began to restraining him while Kiba began to punch his brother like one would a punching bag.
"What did I tell you about practicing what you preached! Didn't I say that!" he said while punching his older brother.
Ino and Nami watched this spectacle with sweat drops.
"Do you think one of the reasons why they're different is that Kiba would always pick on him?" asked Ino.
"I don't know…" said Nami with a sweat drop, "Well how about we go to the other giant's place after all Luffy Naruto, Hinata and Nefeltari are over there."
Ino nodded, and so they headed over there with Kiba dragging a barely conscious Usopp saying stuff about how one day will be a brave warrior of the sea.
Back at Dorry's place, the giant white mountains on top of the two brothers, both were now trapped
"How the hell did this happen!" yelled Kyubi, "Really you two just let him put a giant skull on you!"
"It's a skull…" thought Naruto.
"You freaking idiot!" roared Kyubi.
Naruto ignored his demon and tried to convince Dorry not to leave, he was too stubborn, and wouldn't listen to reason…
"Hinata you figure something out?" asked Naruto.
"I'm not sure… but the Gentle Fist can't be used like that." Said Hinata, "I'm sorry."
"We have to save him!" said Luffy.
The two tried to out underneath the mountains/skulls, Vivi watched them struggle. That's when she noticed that Carue was missing.
Elsewhere in the forest, both Sakura and Sasuke were looking for someone else, that's when they saw what they thought was Naruto.
"Hey Dobe! What are you just doing standing there?" asked Sasuke.
That's when a trap was sprung on them.
Still elsewhere in the forest, the "weak" group was running for their life from a dinosaur none of them noticed that Nami needed to catch her breath and took a break. Just a minute later they heard her scream.
"Did you hear that?" asked Ino turning around, the first one not noticing Nami's gone.
The two boys and one dog noticed that Nami was indeed missing… and both came to one conclusion, they ran for their lives, yelling, "Nami's been eaten by a Dinosaur!"
"Idiots…" she muttered then followed them.
They got to where the others were.
"It's terrible!" yelled Usopp, "Nami was eaten by a Dinosaur!"
"We can't be certain! You ran screaming like that!" yelled Ino.
"Well I guess I jumped the gun…" laughed Kiba nervously.
"Jump the gun!" yelled Ino.
"Wait, wait, wait! Back up! What happened." said Naruto.
Usopp, Kiba and Ino told them what happened.
"Maybe… it was Baroque Works." Said Hinata.
"What do you mean?" asked Kiba.
"Well, if it was Baroque Works, Nami would be the only one of you that she would go after. The three of you probably aren't on their hit list" Said Vivi, "Because after what that voice in Naruto's head said was true…"
"Don't say it like that like that… you make it sound like I'm crazy." Pouted Naruto.
"Well having a voice in your head makes you seem crazy… even if there's a good explanation for it." Said Ino with a sweat drop.
"Well that ale might have been spiked by those from Whiskey Peak." Said Hinata, "One of them do have a Devil Fruit like that."
"What are you talking about?" asked Usopp.
That's when they told them what happened… Usopp was shocked out of all them, "What do you mean the ale blew up inside his stomach!" yelled Usopp, "Then he went to fight with insides torn up!"
Usopp was shaking with anger, "How dare they mess with that honorable fight that's been going for 100 years! It's probably the most honorable battle in all of history!" he yelled, "It can't end like that!"
Less than a minute later they saw a huge geyser of blood, shocking them all knew what caused it, Luffy began to struggle against the mountain/skull.
"Who are you! Come out now!" he yelled.
"Luffy…" said Naruto, "Wait I just remembered! My clones!"
Naruto summoned some clones… however… they weren't pretty, they looked like they were dying.
"Uh-oh…" said Naruto with a sweat drop.
"You can't gather enough chi with that mountain on you." Said Kiba with a sweat drop.
"Okay plan B!" said Naruto.
Naruto then shifted to his half demon from… however he screamed in pain and shifted back to his human form.
"What wrong?" asked Hinata.
"It's crushing my tails! It's hurts a lot…" whined Naruto.
"You're part demon… yes you can't handle pain to you tail…" said Ino with a sweat drop.
'What did you say?" asked Naruto glaring at Ino.
"I'm referring to your devil fruit! I'm not calling you a demon!" said Ino with a sweat drop knowing that Naruto was very touchy on the subject.
"Oh…" said Naruto.
"Okay! Luffy! Naruto!" said Usopp, "I'm going to find that guy and kill him!"
"Sure you are… sure…" said Kiba sarcastically staring at his older brother's legs.
"There's no need!" said a voice.
They look up and saw Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentines with him.
"You!" yelled Vivi.
"Who are they?" asked Usopp.
"They're from Whiskey Peak!" said Luffy.
Mr. 5 tossed a severally injured Carue onto the ground.
"Carue!" cried Vivi running to her duck.
"You can have him back!" said Mr. 5.
"What were you going to do to him?" asked Kiba.
"Well since the boy in the Straw Hat and the blonde kid were the only danger to us. We need to separate the princess from them." Said Mr. 5.
"So you were planning to use Carue… weren't you?" asked Ino.
"We wasn't that much use to us… he was too stubborn." Said Mr. 5.
"So were you the ones that spiked the ale?" asked Usopp.
"Yes that was us." Said Ms. 5, "So who he's he and the other two?
"I don't think those three are on the list, I'm sure they're with them, like the pink haired girl." asked Ms. Valentines.
All of them got into position for an attack, Kiba turned Akamaru into his clone, Hinata got into position for the Gentle Fist, Usopp loaded his sling shot and Vivi took out her Peacock Slashers, while Ino stood next to the D Brothers in position in case there was an opening to take over one of them.
"These little pipsqueaks really think they can take us down?" asked Ms. Valentines with a laugh.
Usopp shot an exploding star at Mr. 5, while it did hit, he was unaffected, so he used a booger and launched at Usopp, which exploded.
"Usopp!" yelled Kiba.
"Wait… did he just use a booger?" asked Ino blinking, "Gross!"
Ms. Valentines was in the air at the time… then she used her powers to shift her weight and crushed the poor liar.
"You…"growled Kiba.
"That's it!" yelled Vivi, "Peacock Slasher!"
She was about to strike, but Mr. 5 made a small explosion and that sent Vivi off her feet and caught her… by the neck!
"Oh no!" said Hinata.
What Hinata didn't notice was that Ms. Valentines above her and aimed down towards, Hinata saw her and barely dodged the crater she made when she crashed down back to earth… in face Hinata tripped because if. Ms. Valentines walked over to the girl and grabbed her arm.
"So you're that little girl on the list…" said Ms. Valentines, "I wonder why a weakling like you are even on the hit list."
"Don't call me weak!" said Hinata she readied her free hand, "3 Palm! Paramecia Cancellation!"
Hinata used her free hand to strike the right upper chest, the left shoulder and the belly button on Ms. Valentines. The shock of this made the agent let Hinata go.
"What was that?" asked Ms. Valentines.
"I am a user of the Gentle Fist, not only did I strike you… but those three spots I hit are weak points for Paramecia Devil Fruit Eaters when stuck by the Gentle Fist… for the next 10 minutes you wouldn't be able to use your Devil Fruit Powers!"
"Really… I'll show you!" said Ms. Valentines, she was about to lift off… but found she couldn't, "What the…"
"What's wrong?" asked Mr. 5 still holding onto Vivi.
"She really did do that my powers." muttered Miss Valentines.
"That was amazing Hinata!" cheered Naruto, "I didn't know you could do that!"
"Well actually I still haven't gotten the hang of it… it's usually supposed to last for 3 or 4 hours…" sighed Hinata.
"3 or 4 hours…" said Naruto with a sweat drop, "Man the Gentle Fist user have such a high standards..."
"You got that right… someone could beat powered down devil fruit user's ass in less than 5 minutes…" said Kyubi.
"Hinata! Don't listen to anyone… just because you can't hold it down for an insane standard doesn't mean you're weak." Said Naruto.
"Really Naruto?" asked Hinata blushing.
Naruto nodded and with his word she turned towards Mr. 5, "All right! Let her go or going to suffer the same fate as your partner."
Mr. 5 only answer by throwing a bomb at Hinata that knocked her out.
"Hinata!" yelled Naruto.
He followed by sending bombs to Kiba, Akamaru and Ino.
"Stop it!" yelled Luffy.
"It's a good thing that we're not here to kill you yet." Said Mr. 5, "We have orders from Mr. 3 to capture you."
"Mr. 3… the Wax Wax Fruit Man!" said Vivi in fear.
"That's it!" yelled Naruto.
Naruto tried to form a Rasengan… sadly it caused another explosion, enveloping the idiot blonde.
"Did you do that?" asked Ms. Valentines with a sweat drop.
"I think he did it to himself. Said Mr. 5.
"You know!" yelled Kyubi to the barely conscious Naruto, "If I didn't die when you died, then I would so kill you!"
Mr. 5 handed the princess over to his partner, despite being powerless she was still able to hold the Princess. Mr. 5 then delivered an exploding kick to Luffy.
"You pirates should even have gotten involved." Said Mr. 5, "You should also know that we captured the swordsman, the Emo kid, the orange girl and some girl that was with the Emo kid."
"You caught Zoro and Sasuke then…" said Luffy, "You're doomed."
"So you can still talk… even after getting a taste of my kicky bomb?" asked Mr. 5.
Luffy stuck his tongue at the agent, "Drop dead…" he said then spat on his shoe.
Mr. 5 then kicked the rubber boy once again…
"Luffy!" yelled Vivi.
"Let's go…" said Mr. 5.
"What about that girl…" said Ms. Valentines.
"If she was able to do that you then I think we should figure out another way to get rid of her." Said Mr. 5.
As the two took away Vivi she looked at the unconscious pirates, dog and her pet duck, hopping they were all right and hopping there would that everything would be okay, though knowing that the person she was about to see was on a different level than these two.
