Chapter 171: Was Eaten By a Snake
Naruto was going to give himself a case of ingestion. After all that attack did have that draw back.
Nearby in the giant snake's stomach… everything was shifting due to certain reasons. When everything settled thing seemed normal.
"Is everyone alright?" asked Nami.
Gaara nodded.
"Where are we?" asked Aisa.
"We were eaten by a snake." Said Gaara.
Gan Fall went to the stomach wall, "Looks like we can't cut our way out."
"If you did that the Snake would just start trashing again." Said Gaara.
"By the way, what are you doing off the ship?" asked Gan Fall.
"I'd like to know that too." Said Gaara.
"And isn't that a Shandian girl?" asked Gan Fall.
"It's a long story." Said Nami.
That was when they saw a shadow approach them. It was Luffy.
"Hey Nami! Gaara! Weird old man! What are you doing in this creepy cave?" asked Luffy.
Gaara sighed, this was going to get annoying really fast.
Nami explained to him what's was going on.
"So you were eaten by a snake." Said Luffy, "That must have been rough."
"You were eaten too!" yelled Nami pulling his nose.
"Haven't you noticed your clothes." Said Gaara.
Luffy realized two things, "You mean I was eaten too!" yelled Luffy, "Oh my god! What happened to my clothes!"
"They were digested." Said Nami.
"Luffy…" said Gaara, "Were you trying to punch and kick your way out…"
"Yes why?" asked Luffy.
Nami began to beat up Luffy.
"Blue Sea Women are barbaric." Said Gan Fall.
"No that's just Nami." Said Gaara.
Back outside the snake, Naruto in full on demon form began to create the bubbles of chi. He then compressed them into one giant one and swallowed it.
"I really hate this part." Thought Naruto.
"I know kit… sorry." Said Kyubi.
There was an explosion in his stomach and he let out the beam of power. The wind blew around and the power destroyed half of the cage.
Needless to say anyone who was fighting stopped and stared at Naruto.
"What did he just do?" asked one of the goat men.
"You okay Naruto?" asked Zoro.
"My stomach…" whined Naruto who had returned to human form.
Naruto took the antacids… and sighed.
"It's going to take a while to work you know." Said Kyubi.
"I know…" thought Naruto.
After that awkward moment the fight started again.
Below them with Robin's group, they were exploring the ruins, Robin found something that shocked her.
"What is it Robin?" asked Sakura.
"These words…" said Robin, "They're the same ones written on the Ponegliff."
"Really?" asked Kakashi, "Then this place must be important."
"I think this city is Shandora." Said Robin.
"I think you told me about that once." Said Kakashi.
Robin nodded, "The city that protected their Ponegliff to its destruction, the golden city." Explained Robin.
"And it was lost to the history." Said Kakashi.
"We found it." Said Robin, "The city's Ponegliff is said to with the golden bell."
Sakura just stood there confused.
"Excuse me?" asked Sakura.
"How dare you leave me out this conversation!" yelled Inner Sakura.
"Sorry for leaving you out this conversation Sakura." Said Kakashi noticing Sakura looking confused, "Do you want me to explain anything?"
"No, I'm fine." Said Sakura.
"You better be sorry!" yelled Inner Sakura.
They group of here went to the middle of the forgotten city.
"The bell should be here." Said Robin.
"Someone must have moved it." Said Kakashi, pointing over to some tracks.
"These do look recent." Said Sakura.
Robin scowled, "I can't believe it." She thought.
"It also explains why we couldn't find any gold." Said Kakashi realizing something else.
"Let's not tell Nami about it." Said Sakura.
"Impressive isn't it?" asked a voice.
Everyone turned around and saw Eneru.
"This city continues to exist in the clouds. Hidden away, my predecessors didn't even knew it existed, the city of Shandora." Said Eneru.
"Who are you?" asked Kakashi.
"I am god." Said Eneru.
There was a silence among the three as he turned towards Robin, "You must be an archeologist from the blue sea." He said, "It took us several months to find these ruins, it must be easier to read the symbols. By the way, if you're looking for the gold you're too late."
"So you're the one who took it away." Said Sakura.
"That's right. Gold suits me well." Said Eneru.
"Was it also for the Gold bell that was here too?" asked Robin.
"What?" asked Eneru. "The gold bell?"
"He doesn't know about it." Thought Robin.
"Then I guess the bell isn't here." Said Kakashi.
Robin nodded, "It probably fell somewhere." She said.
"Wait." Said Eneru, "This Golden Bell is here."
Everyone looked at Eneru.
"When the island first came here, it is said that everyone heard the island's voice." Said Eneru, "It must have been the golden bell."
"So the Ponegliff is here." Said Robin.
"I sense some maggots on the edge of the island." Said Eneru.
Back at the Going Merry, Su began to make it's noise while Akamaru barked.
"What is it Su?" asked Conis.
Kiba looked into the distance and saw a man that was beaten up, the healthy members of the crew went to see him.
"What happened?" asked Conis.
"You're one of God's warriors aren't you?" asked Pagaya.
"Yes I am." Mumbled the man.
"Conis treat him right away." Said Pagaya.
"Right." Said Conis.
"I'll help." Said Hinata.
"Wait!" said the man.
But before anything can happen they heard someone yell out "Hey! Guys!"
That was when they saw Naruto (well a clone) carrying the goat man.
"Naruto." Said Hinata.
"What's going on?" asked Naruto's clone.
That when he saw the guy.
"He's one of God's warriors." Said the Goat Man.
"Wait aren't you one of the bad guys?" asked Ino.
"He's on our side! Really? His boss tried to kill him but he managed to get away." Said Naruto's clone.
"You really want to help?" asked man.
The goat man nodded.
That was when the they saw large lighting bold coming down from the sky.
"Run now!" yelled Naruto's Clone, "Get them out of here!"
That was when Naruto's clone turned into his full demon form taking the hit for everyone and letting them all escape the lightning bolt.
"Naruto!" yelled Ino.
"He's fine." Said Kiba.
"It was only a clone." Said Hinata.
The Goat man nodded.
With Eneru he shrugged, he realized that if they got away then they would warn the people. Which he thought it might be more fun to witness the panic as they try to leave but are too late.
The crew, the two civilians and the two men who were going to bearers of bad news got back to the ship.
"We need to get out here fast." Said Pagaya.
"But how?" asked Isaribi.
Both Ino and Kiba looked at her.
"Oh no… no way you're going to use me to pull the ship." Said Isaribi.
