Chapter 132: Something Smells Fishy
The two men that snuck on bored saw the two pirates.
"What are doing on this ship?" asked Sanji lighting his cigarette.
"Does it really matter?" asked one of them men.
"Yes it does." Said Zoro.
The two men realized it was time for a fight. One of them which was the younger of the two took on Sanji while the older two took on Zoro.
Back with Gaara and the monster, they continued to fight and since it wasn't moving and quickly he saw a good look at it.
"You're a human, aren't you?" asked Gaara.
"Shut up!" yelled the monster who was also female.
She was about to punch him in the face, when the sand came out of and protected him.
"What are you?" she asked.
"The Holder of the demon Ichibi no Shukaku." Said Gaara.
The monster's eyes widened she had heard of them… horrible monsters with a fearsome reputation.
"And you're the holder?" asked the monster.
Gaara nodded…
"Even so, I can still win." Said the monster.
She began to shot water from her mouth, the water went through the sand, hitting Gaara in the gut making him double over.
"After all water is sand's weakness." She said with a smirk.
Gaara glared at the monster.
Elsewhere on the ship Sanji was fighting his opponent. With a flurry of kicks he pounded his opponent… it all ended when he kicked his opponent into the wall, the opponent fell to the ground, it could be best described as a gooey mass of skin, it looked as if Sanji broke every single bone in his body.
"I didn't think I hit him that hard." He mumbled.
Sanji began to walk away when someone pulled his arm. He turned and his opponent was alive. Still looking like he broke every bone in his but still alive.
"I guess I should explain." Said his opponent, "You see I have gone through a surgery that was meant to give me the ability to control every part of my body, I can do anything I want with this body."
That was when the opponent slithered up to Sanji and wrapped himself around him.
"I can easily squeeze the life out of you." He said.
With Zoro's fight, his opponent had been trying to grab him. Instead of actually fighting.
"Aren't you going to fight back?" asked Zoro.
"You know nothing of my powers." Answered his opponent.
"No… I was born with these abilities." Said his opponent.
Zoro took a swipe at his opponent.
"What abilities are those?" asked Zoro.
That was when his opponent finally grabbed his arm. Zoro felt as if his energy was being drained. Zoro managed to breakaway.
"That's right I can train a person's energy." Said his opponent.
"I bet I have a lot so can't take it all." Said Zoro.
"I doubt it." Said his opponent.
With Sanji, his opponent had him like a snake, slowly crushing him.
"You know since you're about to die. I'll tell you why I'm here. My boss needs money to fund his research. We've using our little pet to attack ships sink them then take the gold." Explained his opponent.
"So you're the ones who sent out the monster?" asked Sanji.
"That's right." Said his opponent, "However she didn't come back with any treasure so we came to take everything."
"Is that so." Said Sanji.
Sanji fell to the ground while opponent laughed… until Sanji kicked him in the head. He let go of Sanji.
"You should have noticed when you squeezing me, you were focused too much on my upper body and not my legs.
"Uh…" said his opponent.
"And I noticed that your head wasn't effected by your abilities." Said Sanji.
"Damn it… no one's ever figure that one out." Thought his opponent, "So what's your name?"
"Sanji? What yours?" asked Sanji.
"Tsurugi Misumi." Answered his opponent.
Sanji proceed to boot his head, over and over again.
With Zoro and his opponent, well it wasn't much of a fight, his opponent kept dodged his attacks. And Zoro dodged his opponents attack.
Zoro really hated his fight.
Of course that would be an understatement.
"How am I supposed to end this?" thought Zoro.
With Gaara, he made his sand aim attack at the monster but she dodged.
"I have a question for you." Said Gaara as the monster dodged his sand.
"What?" she asked.
"Were you the one that saved Naruto?" asked Gaara.
The monster stop what was doing, since Gaara knew she wouldn't attack back he stopped his sand.
"How do you know your crewmate's alive?" asked the monster.
"Because… until you showed up, Shukaku had been complaining that he's alive…" muttered Gaara, "Which means someone saved him."
The monster gritted her teeth. "Why would I save that idiot?" asked the monster, she once again shot some water from her mouth hitting the sand.
Gaara narrowed his eyes as he continued the fight.
Back with Sanji, he kicked Misumi high to into the air, so high he was flying back to the island.
Both the monster and Zoro's opponent noticed this.
"So it looks like Misumi lost." Said Zoro's opponent, "Sorry but it looks like this fight is over."
Zoro opponent ran away.
On the other hand the monster saw this and dove into the water.
Gaara just watched her, getting the feeling like he would see her again.
Zoro and Sanji went to where Gaara was.
"So I guess you beat the guy you were fighting." Said Zoro looking at Gaara.
"Think again moss head." Growled Sanji.
"Hey!" yelled a voice.
They turned to see Naruto, Luffy and Hinata approaching the shop.
"Well it looks like Luffy was right." Said Sanji, "Naruto's alive."
Gaara only looked at where the monster dived in.
Shortly after the remaining crew was alive.
"So how did you manage to live?" asked Sasuke.
"A girl named Isaribi saved me." Said Naruto.
"How much luck you do you have?" asked Kiba with a sweat drop.
"Don't ask me." Said Naruto.
"I'm guessing that you have a lot of karma stored up from your childhood." Said Kyubi.
Naruto rolled his eyes.
"I heard why the monster attacked us." Said Sanji.
"Why?" asked Nami.
"From what I can tell, some researcher is using it to attack ships and take any money that was on board." Said Sanji.
"What!" yelled Nami, "I can't believe that they tried to steal the money!"
"Come on Nami is could have been… our ship could have sank." Said Sakura.
"I don't care." Said Nami, "I have been saving that money!"
Everyone sweat dropped.
"I wonder if it had to do with what that woman told us about that island." Said Hinata.
"Oh yeah." Said Luffy.
"What do you mean?" asked Ino.
"A lot of people mysteriously disappear and Isaribi is the only one who came back." Said Naruto.
"All right!" yelled Luffy, "I have a plan! Tomorrow we're going to that smaller island and go find out what's going on."
"How do you know that the smaller island is where everything happens?" asked Nami.
"I just know." Said Luffy.
"Why tomorrow?" asked Nami.
"Because… I want to meet Isaribi before we go." Said Luffy.
"Makes sense." Said Nami knowing that Luffy would want to meet a girl who saved Naruto's life.
Meanwhile, elsewhere the mysterious boss was chewing out the two.
"So you couldn't get their treasure? At all?" asked the mysterious boss.
"Don't blame me." Said Zoro's opponent, "It's was Misumi's fault."
Misumi glared at his partner.
"To me it's both of your fault." Said the boss.
"Can I go now?" asked the monster.
"Yes you can." Said the boss.
The monster dove into the sea.
"Yoroi… Misumi keep an eye on her… I have a bad feeling." Said the boss.
The two nodded… getting the same feeling as well.
Next Time: Before the Straw Hats head to the smaller island, Naruto introduces Isaribi to Luffy, Gaara and Chopper... why the last two... because it's very obvious. However Gaara seems to know her from somewhere... But how does he knew her... What will happen? Find out next time!
