Chapter 125: Arrival at Snow Island

As the ship made its way to the island, Yukie kept to herself. Deciding not to talk to anyone unless she had to… needless to say she wasn't happy about it… and it didn't help that the crew was just having fun in the snow.

"How can they be having fun." She muttered.

"Get back here Naruto!" shouted Ino chasing Naruto with Sasuke.

"I can't believe Naruto did that." Laughed Luffy.

"What did he do again?" asked Kiba.

"He posed as Ino wanting to give Sasuke a "lemon" snow cone." Said Luffy, "He caught on and claimed it was Naruto… but he had a clone claiming he really was Ino and began to cry."

"Then the real Ino showed up, right?" asked Kiba.

"Yeah!" laughed Luffy.

Both Luffy and Kiba laughed.

Yukie muttered under her breath and headed into the Galley to find Nami plotting out their course and Sanji with his nose in a certain orange book.

"You actually read that?" asked Yukie.

"Yeah…" mumbled Sanji.

"Well whatever…" muttered Yukie.

"Hey Nami!" yelled Usopp from outside, Nami went outside, to see both Usopp and Gaara in the crow's nest, "We're almost there!"

"Okay!" said Nami.

"Oh no! You killed Naruto." She heard Chopper yelled.

"Not my problem…" sighed Nami rolling her eyes.

Naruto was knocked out, covered in bumps and bruises caused by Sasuke and Ino throwing snowballs at him.

"Well kit… you tried… and you lost." Said Kyubi.

"Now's not the time to tell me." Thought Naruto.

As they approached the island, and hid the ship in a covered dock they discussed the plans.

"I have already arranged an escort. We will use the theater as a base." Explained Sandayu.

"You know you could just bail out now." Said Yukie, "You're not needed any further."

"Too bad!" yelled Luffy, "We're going to help you take this country back whether you like it or not!"

"It's your funeral!" yelled Yukie.

She left the Galley.

"Say… Sandayu… how strong is this Doto guy?" asked Luffy.

"I don't know… but he seems to hide behind the fact that he has a lot of military might." Said Sandayu.

"Oh… okay…" said Luffy, "I already fought a guy exactly like that so it will be easy."

"Oh yeah, the guy who wouldn't shut up." Said Naruto.

"You were knocked for half the fight." Said Kyubi.

"No thanks to you." Thought Naruto.

After the conversation the crew along with Sandayu and Yukie went into something weird carriages, which ran on coal rather than pulled by Horses.

"This is really impressive." Said Robin.

"The old king spent a lot of money so that the country would be the most technological advanced on the Grand Line." Explained the person driving the cart that had Robin, Nami, Sakura and Ino, "He was a kind king… but also almost drove to bankruptcy because of this habit."

"I see." Said Robin.

As they rode, they went through a long tunnel.

"Wow! I can't believe this tunnel." Said Naruto, "It's made of ice.

"Actually back before Doto took over, trains ran though here." Said the person driving the cart with Luffy, Naruto, Hinata and Gaara riding.

In her own cart, as she was riding alone, Yukie stared at her necklace.

After leaving the carts, some of the drivers, Naruto and Akamaru all had to do their business.

"I can't believe we're having two jokes involving that in one chapter." Said Kyubi.

"I'm not giving it to anyone this time." Thought Naruto.

"I know but still." Said Kyubi.

That was when of the drivers yelled out, "Koyuki has gone missing!"

"Should you be using the name she's been going by?" asked Sasuke.

"Whatever! But she's missing!" yelled the driver.

"She probably ran away." Sighed Gaara.

"All right! We have to find her right now!" yelled Nami.

"Is it just me or is she still upset over not getting that reward she wanted from Vivi?" asked Kiba.

"I know." Agreed Usopp.

"What was that?" asked Nami becoming outright demonic.

The two froze up.

"Nothing! Nothing at all! Right?" asked Usopp.

"That's right!" agreed Kiba.

"Good! Find her right now!" yelled Nami.

Everyone nodded… and they all left with the exception of Nami, Sakura and Robin.

"I have the feeling that this is going to become very complicated." Said Robin.

Somewhere, on the other side of the tunnel Yukie was running through the woods when she tripped. She decided not get up. It was probably better to just lay down and die.

"Are you just going to lay down and die?" asked a voice.

She looked up and saw both Luffy and Naruto.

"Shut up! Just shut up!" yelled Yukie.

"You're nothing but a spoiled brat." Said Naruto.

"Just shut up!" yelled Yukie.

"You're not the first princess we've dealt with you know." Said Luffy.

"That's right." Said Naruto, "And she's the complete opposite of you."

"She put her people before herself. She didn't care what happened to her. As long as her people were safe that was all that mattered." Said Luffy.

Yukie glared at the two of them.

"Fine… I'll come back." She muttered.

Luffy carried her on her back while the three walked through the tunnel. She muttered things mostly under her breath.

"Who wear's sandals in the snow?" she asked no one.

This one Naruto thought it was funny who decided to answer.

"My brother." He laughed.

"I wasn't talking to you." She muttered.

That was when the three of them got a weird feeling. The ice on the ground began to melt causing train tracks to appear.

"What are those?" asked Naruto.

That was when there was a strange whistle. They turned around and saw a big metal thing headed right for them.

"It's the train!" yelled Yukie.

"The train?" asked Naruto and Luffy confused.

"Just run quickly you idiot!" yelled Kyubi.

They began to run through the tunnel, quickly as possible.

"Naruto! Grab on!" shouted Luffy.

Naruto grabbed onto his waist. Luffy proceed to use Gum Gum Rocket to get out of the tunnel, landing in the snow.

"Are you insane!" yelled Yukie.

"We got out didn't we?" asked Naruto.

"You both are idiots!" yelled Yukie.

The train stopped and that's when someone came out of the train. Yukie saw who it was, making her freeze in fear.

"Doto." She whispered.

"It's been a long time Koyuki." Said the Man named Doto, using a Baby Snail Phone magnify his voice.

Naruto and Luffy glared at the man… knowing that they were going to eventually fight him.

Next Time: A fight with the train causes many problems... when Doto shows his "military might"... someone will die! Who is it? Not one of the Straw Hats... but someone will die! Who is it? Find out next time!
