Chapter 136: The Cave's Coming Down

The sand was about to engulf Amachi. When suddenly it froze around him.

No…" he said, "I refuse to go back…"

The Sand retreated back into the gourd, Isaribi watched with interest.

"I will not listen to Shukaku telling me to kill… even if he deserves it." Said Gaara.

"What did he mean by that? Asked Isaribi, while thinking "Did he used to kill indiscriminately?"

Amachi laughed, "Well Gaara, that was interesting." Said Amachi, "You should have killed me."

"Can you really cure me?" asked Isaribi, "Or are you lying, just so I can do your work?"

"I created you, so of course I can cure you." Said Amachi with an evil smile.

Isaribi began to think back at she had done… killing all those innocent people... as well as pirates. Doing those horrible deeds. She also thought about what Gaara did. She stood there… and that was when she made her decision.

"Come on Isaribi." Said Amachi, "We should leave."

"No…" whispered Isaribi, "I'm not going with you."

"What? Why?" asked Amachi.

"How do I know you're lying?" asked Isaribi, "You might not have a cure."

"How sad, but oh well." He said.

He left the group and as soon as he was out of site, everything began to rumble.

"What's going on?" asked Naruto.

"He must have pushed the self-destruct switch." Said Isaribi.

"You mean it's going to explode?" asked Nami.

"Cave in would be the better term." Said Isaribi.

That was when a rock landed near Chopper causing him to jump.

"We have to get out of here." Said Isaribi, "Follow me."

"What about the others." Said Luffy.

"I'm sure they can get out here on their own." Said Naruto.

Luffy nodded…

"This way." Said Isaribi.

"You better be right kit." Said Kyubi.

Elsewhere in the cave, the ceiling began to come down on Sasuke and Robin. Sasuke managed to jump into the air and slice a rock in half.

"Looks like we better get out of here." Said Robin.

Sasuke nodded.

With Sanji and Ino, both of them dodged the falling rocks.

"I wonder what's going on?" asked Sanji.

"I really hope it's not Naruto going Kyubi to fight the monster." Said Ino.

"You really don't think he'd do that here?" asked Sanji.

Both of them sweat dropped.

"This is something he would do." Said Sanji.

"Yeah…" said Ino, she straitened up, "We need to get out of here!"

Both of them ran out as fast they could.

With Sakura and Usopp, Usopp dodged the falling rocks, while Sakura just smashed her way through them.

"We have to get out of here now!" yelled Sakura.

"Come on you coward!" yelled Inner Sakura.

With Kiba and Zoro they had barely exited the cave when it began to collapse.

"Oh man… what's what happening now?" asked Kiba.

"I don't know…" said Zoro, "Maybe we should leave."

"I really hope Usopp's with someone who can save him." Said Kiba.

The left the cave quickly.

With Luffy's group, they followed Isaribi.

Rocks came down on them.

"Is your back better?" asked Luffy.

"I think so…" said Naruto turning half demon form, he created many clones.

The clones used their tails to gets of the falling rocks.

A big rock was about to hit them, so Naruto formed a Rasengan.

But before he could hit it, sand engulfed the boulder and crushed into nothing… or sand…

"What did you do?" asked Nami.

"I can turn all sorts of rocks into sand… if I'm on the ground I can change an area into sand." Explained Gaara, "Naruto, your back is still in pain, so I will handle it."

"Oh okay…" said Naruto.

Isaribi looked at Gaara.

That was when more rocks came down scaring Chopper, Nami and Hinata.

"We should get out of here." Said Hinata.

"All right." Said Isaribi leading the way.

The group headed towards the exit, when they got back to the fork, they found the others arrived there at the same time.

"You guys are okay." Said Naruto.

"You're not the of this are you?" asked Ino.

"Why would you think that!" yelled Naruto.

"Come on! We need to get out of here!" shouted Isaribi, "We don't know if the exit will close or not…"

"Who is she?" asked Sasuke.

"Shut up and go!" yelled Isaribi.

They ran towards the exit, Zoro and Kiba watch outside the cave, Akamaru barked, the two turned and saw the other members running towards the exit.

"All right… it looked like everyone is all right." Said Kiba.

Right before they could get to the to the exit, it was closed up.

"Damn it!" yelled Kiba, "It's too late…"

"Let's get them out of there." Said Zoro.

But before he could unsheathe his swords the boulders that closed off the cave turned to dust… well sand. Shocking those that didn't see this before.

"You can do that Gaara?" asked Kiba.

"As long as he has gourd to work with, he can turn that into sand and control it." Said Robin who knew about that ability.

"You didn't see a man in a lab coat come through here?" asked Isaribi.

"No… and who are you?" asked Kiba.

"There was another exit in the cave… but it's on the other side of the island." Said Isaribi.

"Maybe we can catch him." Said Naruto.

"I already made it out… and apparently so did you." Said a voice.

They turned to see Amachi.

"Thank you I lost of my work… but that doesn't matter." Said Amachi, "I perfected everything."

"What do you mean?" asked Isaribi.

"You'll see." Said Amachi, "But I must get rid of those meddlesome pirates and their dumb dog."

Akamaru whined when he said that.

"Did you have to bring him into it?" asked Kiba.

That was when he took out a vial, he tossed it into the sea which began to bubble until it became a big thing living of water. That's the best way to describe it.

"What is that thing?" asked Isaribi, who didn't know about it.

"Just a little side project, I can now make water into a living creature I can control." Laughed Amachi.

"Great… how can we handle it?" asked Sanji.

I don't know if I can cut it." Said Zoro.

"Kit…" said Kyubi.

"Okay." Thought Naruto knowing what he meant.

Naruto stood in front of the water monster.

"Naruto what do you think you're going to do?" asked Nami.

Naruto held out a Rumble ball, "It will take a big monster. To fight a big monster… right. And I'm the only who can do it who won't melt." He said.

"Won't melt?" asked Nami.

"Oh yeah… you didn't see the fight on Alabasta." Said Usopp.

"Everyone… get up to higher ground… this going to be a big battle." Said Naruto.

Before he could do anything Amachi began to laugh.

"You really think you can win… remember when I said I perfected my excrement." Said Amachi.

That was when he began to change. He turned into a fish monster very similar to Isaribi's but deferent, he was a much darker shade of green, he had more finds on his face and his eyes were red, his teeth more jagged and his body more streamlined.

"I am perfect unlike Isaribi." He said.

And that was when Luffy punched in him in the face… after all he wouldn't shut up and he heard this type of thing before. And he wasn't going to take… especially right now… He was made at the guy.
