Chapter 89: The Great Escape!
Guy and Lee stood on the Bananagators, that's when Guy knew what to do…
"Lee… now's the time to take them off!" yelled Guy.
"Yosh!" yelled Lee.
"What is he taking off?" asked Sakura.
"Must be his leg weights." Said Naruto with a shrug, "He hides them under his leg warmers."
And that's when Lee reveled his leg warmers, he then threw them at one of the Bananagators… the sheer force caused the gigantic animal to be sent flying. Causing everyone to gape at the sheer weight.
"I knew Guy was crazy! I just didn't know he was that crazy!" yelled Naruto in shock.
"Okay… Guy officially scares me now…" whimpered Kyubi.
Lee replaced his leg warmers and got up… then he ran towards the Bananagator and kicked him which sent the Bananagator flying…
"So is this why you won't fight him in a real fight?" asked Naruto with a smirk.
"Shut up…" muttered Neji, he really couldn't wait for this was all over, he could take some aspirin, take a nap and maybe call his girlfriend (unless he's lying about the girlfriend thing).
"Shouldn't this fight be gentle… since we're in underwater chamber?" asked Nami.
Unfortunately this was not heard as Guy just upper cut one of the Bananagators sending it flying into the ceiling.
"We're doomed…" sighed Nami.
"Unless Sanji stops gawking at them and actually helps!" yelled Ino.
Sanji blinked then turned back and laughed, "Sorry…" he said.
"Kill the Bananagator or I'll haunt you forever!" yelled Ino.
This made everyone sweat drop.
"I'm unsure but my Devil Fruit power might allow me haunt someone when I die." Said Ino.
That made everyone sweat drop even more.
Sanji nodded and kicked the Bananagator into the guy… that's when it cough up some sort of big white ball with the key attached to it. They watched at the ball broke apart and out popped Mr. 3…
"No way!" yelled Naruto.
"What was he doing in there!" yelled Kiba.
He began to babble on about how he thought he was goner unfortunately after Little Garden all the Straw Hats (minus Sanji) learned to tune him out.
That's when he noticed the key on his ball and everyone paid attention to him.
"Hey! Give us the key!" yelled Luffy.
"You!" yelled Mr. 3 who then put the pieces together, "Slowly flooding room, a cage and a key… I can see what was going here."
"Okay, Mr. 3 be a good boy and hand the over the key!" said Sanji.
That's when Mr. 3 grabbed the key and threw it… losing it forever… or that's what he hopped at Lee managed to catch it midair!
"What the… what's with the weirdo in the spandex?" asked Mr. 3.
He ignored what Mr. 3 and put the key into the lock… but he couldn't turn it.
"Lee what's going on?" asked Naruto.
"I don't think this is the key… it is not working." Said Lee.
"What!" yelled Naruto.
"Then this was a trick all along… it was a dummy key." Said Yugito.
Vivi began to cry… while Hinata comforted her.
"Hey I have an idea!" yelled Usopp.
"This better be good…" muttered Kiba.
"We can use his Wax Wax Powers to make a duplicate of the real key." Said Usopp.
"Wow… that is a good idea." Said Kiba.
And so Mr. 3 gladly agreed to make a duplicate key… okay… actually Sanji just beat him up. And they were freed.
"Thank you." Said Sanji then he kicked him away where Mr. 3 landed on unbelievably floaty wood.
"Wait there's still a few Bananagators left." Said Vivi.
That's when Naruto, Luffy and Zoro took care of the remaining Bananagators.
"I couldn't even handle one…" cried Vivi.
"Don't worry Vivi… we all know they're not normal." Comforted Usopp.
That's when the wall broke the entire room began to flood… everything became hectic as the room was engulfed in water… Usopp hit his head… but fortunately everyone surfaced even those with a Devil Fruit (or hit their head on a rock).
"You okay Naruto?" asked Hinata.
Naruto who could barely move, nodded.
"Thank you Sasuke for saving me! I'm so happy you did!" said Ino happily.
"Yeah, yeah…" muttered Sasuke.
Sakura glared at the sight
"Oh thank you Guy…" said Yugito with a sweat drop.
"It was my pleasure." Said Guy… who gave the thumbs up as his teeth pinged.
That's when everyone heard a shout, "I didn't need your help!"
They turned to see Neji glaring at Lee.
"I am sorry Neji… I thought you needed my help." Said Lee bowing his head.
"Because of you, Captain Smoker is…" said Neji.
"He's fine…" muttered Zoro… who was the one that brought him to the surface.
Everyone gaped at the fact Zoro brought him to the surface.
"Why did you do that!" yelled Ino.
"It wasn't my choice." Muttered Zoro.
"I think it was a good idea… he would have drowned." said Hinata.
"You're a pirate… yet you vouch for a Marine… still pathetic as always Hinata." Said Neji.
That's when Naruto got up and socked Neji in the face.
"Neji…" muttered Naruto angrily.
"Please stop fighting Naruto." Said Hinata, "Now's not the time!"
"No… I won't let him say those kinds of things about you ever again… You're special to me Hinata!" yelled Naruto.
Hinata began to blush bright red… "Naruto…" she thought.
At the same time Smoker got up and attacked Zoro with his weapon.
Sakura looked at everyone… her eye began to tick… Sure what Naruto said was cute… but they didn't have time for this, the only thing that actually helped was when Sanji asked Nami to put on perfume (she could easily guess it was for Chopper)… that's when she walked away from the shore of the lake and punch the ground causing a huge crater. Everyone turned to her with sweat drops.
"Now's not the time to fight! We have to stop Crocodile or else this country is done for!" yelled Sakura.
"Amazing." Said Lee, "What is her name?"
"Sakura." Answered Naruto.
"Sakura…" said Lee.
That's when Luffy and Usopp woke up.
"Let's run to Alubarna as fast as we can!" yelled Usopp.
"Where's that Crocodile!" yelled Luffy.
"You guys are awake good." Said Kiba.
That's when Luffy noticed Smoker.
"Smoker you want to fight?" asked Luffy preparing to fight.
"You're not fighting!" yelled Sakura, "Now's not the time."
Smoke sighed and said "Go…"
"What?" asked Luffy.
"This time I'm letting you go, but next time your dead meat." Said Smoker.
Most of the Straw Hats ran away right away… although Yugito did drag Naruto away.
"Let me go Yugito! He needs that!" yelled Naruto.
Luffy stayed for a few seconds before Smoker let him get away…
"I don't like them very much… but even I have to admit that it's a good idea." Said Neji with a sigh.
Meanwhile the Straw Hats joined by Yugito, Guy and Lee were running as fast they could.
"So we're going run all the way to Alubarna?" asked Usopp.
"Well we can always take some horses." Said Naruto.
"We can't with the Marines all around." Said Vivi.
"Don't worry." Said Sanji.
"Chopper, right?" asked Guy who was earlier introduced to Chopper during the decoy stint.
"I'm sure he has something planned." Said Hinata.
The got the edge of town and saw Chopper and Eyelash on a giant crab.
"Wow it's a crab!" yelled Luffy.
"It's a Crab Mover! They hide in the sands most of the time." Explained Vivi.
Chopper parked the crab…
"All right! Hop on!" said Chopper.
"Where did you get that?" asked Naruto.
"He's a friend of Eyelash's…" said Chopper, "This is Eyelash's home town so he knows a lot of animals."
"That explains the perverted look on its face." Said Ino with a sweat drop.
Before anyone could get on… Guy and Lee knew it was time.
"I'm sorry but it's time for us to part ways." Said Guy.
"What why?" asked Luffy.
"When we were asked to help you, Guy-Sensei and I decided that the whole island shall know of Crocodile's misdeeds." Said Lee.
"That's not such a bad idea." Said Nami.
"If someone would believe them that is." Said Kiba staring at their clothes.
"Before I go… there is something I would like to ask you Sakura." Said Lee who began to blush, "Next time we meet, would you like to go on a date."
"What?" asked Sakura with her eye twitching.
Chopper didn't know why but he couldn't help but to glare at Lee at the moment… not only that but Sakura looked form the corner of her eye to see if Sasuke had some sort of reaction… he didn't.
"I'll think about it…" said Sakura.
"I understand!" said Lee, "And next time we will meet, I will have gotten stronger, remember that."
"Okay…" said Sakura.
"One more thing." Said Guy who pulled out about a dozen green spandex suits and gave each of the male Straw Hats on the ground one each.
"What… the…" muttered Zoro.
"They're my personal spandex, they're what made both me and Lee strong as we. It helps improves circulation, and helps with sweat and not only that but…" said Guy who began to move his butt around, "It feels like I'm wearing nothing at all… nothing at all nothing at all… nothing at all!"
"Please stop repeating yourself Guy…" said Naruto.
"Stupid sexy Guy!" yelled Kyubi.
"I'm sure you'll look good in it…" said Guy.
That's when all the males imagined themselves in the spandex and shuddered at the thought… also Ino and Sakura were also having daydreams of Sasuke in it… at first they liked it… until the day dreams degraded into one where Sasuke acted like Guy and Lee and shuddered.
"It was good to see you again!" said Lee.
"I hope we see each other again." Said Guy.
That's when the two ran into the sunset…
"Um… is the sun setting right now or is that one of their creepy illusions?" asked Sakura.
"It's actually sun set so we don't have to worry about it." Said Nami.
"So…" said Kiba looking at the spandex he got, "What are we going to do with these?"
"I honestly don't know…" said Naruto.
"Hinata… is Lee a playboy?" asked Sakura.
"Actually, I've never seen Lee do that before, I think he did fall in love with you." Said Hinata.
Sakura sighed and hung her head low… hopefully she could stave him off for a while. She really didn't want to go on a date with him, that's for sure.
They all climbed onto the crab and headed off… or they should have… Crocodile's hook appeared attached to sand and grabbed Vivi. They noticed Crocodile in the distance and he taking her, however Luffy managed to grab Vivi and replace her with himself.
"Luffy!" yelled Naruto.
"You idiot!" yelled Zoro.
"Don't worry! Go on without me! I'll be okay!" yelled Luffy.
And with that things got more complicated…
Next Time: Luffy faces off against Crocodile while the other go as fast as they can to Alubarna. Can they make in time? Can Luffy defeat Crocodile? Fine out next time!
