A/N: Anniversary... I can't say happy today... I just can't... My cat... my cat died today. She was my baby. Not only did I have her since she was a kitten but I had her for most of my life. I was planning on putting her down tomorrow... but she... just died... What's worse is that I wasn't even home. I had my therapists appointment today, she was breathing when I left but when I came home...

It was a miracle I was even able to spell check this thing... I guess I'm that dedicated...

Needless to say I won't be doing any fanfics for a while... I'm completely and utterly devastated right now... I hope everyone enjoys the chapter...

Chapter 219: Three Way: Pirates, Cyborg and Foremen

Luffy's fight had become serious with Franky so much that the fight spread to the shipyard.

"Go Luffy!" cheered Naruto, "Beat his tin ass!"

"Go Bro!" cheered the Square Sisters.

Franky revealed that his right was hesitantly a bazooka and shot at Luffy, however that was when both Franky and Luffy were sent flying. As it turns out Kaku, Lucci, Paulie and two others were the ones who did it. The towns people cheered when they arrived.

"They're on our side? Right?" asked Nami.

"I don't think they're here to help." said Kyubi.

"Are you sure." Said Naruto.

They watched when the five foreman talked to Franky, however they came to get back at Luffy for something…. Luffy wasn't sure what he was talking about, but when Paulie used a rope to choke Luffy, Naruto knew he had to get involved. He turned into his half demon form and used his one of his tail to cut the rope.

"You don't mind this time, right?" asked Naruto.

"No I understand." Said Luffy regain his breath.

"A devil fruit." Said Kaku.

"You're half right." Said Naruto, "Tell us why are you fighting us? We're not you're enemy!"

"You know the reason." Muttered Paulie.

"What are you talking about?" asked Naruto.

"Don't you lie!" yelled Paulie.

"We heard everything." Said Kaku.

"I can't believe I'm about to say this but I think you should fight them this way we can finally hear what they're trying to say." Said Kyubi.

Naruto nodded, surprised that Kyubi would go with fighting as an answer.

"If you want to get at my brother you have to go through me." Muttered Naruto.

However one of the ones they didn't meet took out guns and shot Luffy… which was pointless because he was rubber.

"What? Another Devil Fruit?" asked one who shot him who was a man with black hair and glasses, his name was Lulu.

"Wow… for someone who decided to start a fight with us doesn't know about our abilities." Said Naruto.

"Shut up!" yelled Paulie.

That was when Lulu went into attack Luffy but Franky shot at him.

"Get of here! He's mine!" yelled Franky.

"That's right! Leave our battle to me!" yelled Naruto.

That was when Naruto created four more clones.

"These are shadow clones." Said Naruto, "I don't think you can defeat them so easily."

That was when Lucci managed to punch all of them very quickly destroying all four of them.

"How were you able to do that!" yelled Naruto.

"Remember kit… be on your guard around him at all times. He isn't normal." Said Kyubi.

Naruto nodded as he prepared to fight him.

Franky on the other hand shot at Kaku while yelling to stay away from Luffy as this was his fight, Kaku did manage to escape while jumping in the air. He was hit by a two by four weirded by the last foreman, a very big man named Tilestone…

Yes, that was his name… with a name like that he was destined to go into construction.

However Lucci decided to switch to fighting Luffy.

Naruto gritted his teeth and created a Rasengan. He slammed it at Lucci but he dodged very quickly.

"How was he able to do that?" thought Naruto.

"Like I said… there something off about that guy." Said Kyubi.

Luffy watched and yelled out, "What's it with you! I want an expiation!" yelled Luffy.

"You want an explanation!" yelled Paulie, "We're the ones who deserve an explanation!"

"What do you mean?" asked Naruto.

"Last night somebody broke into Iceberg's mansion and attacked him! It was you guys wasn't it!" yelled Paulie.

"What are you suggesting?" asked Nami as she was on the sidelines.

"Oh no…" whispered Hinata.

"It wasn't us!" yelled Naruto, "We were busy last night."

"Don't be an idiot! Why would we do something like that!" yelled Luffy.

"There were two assassins." Said Paulie, "According to Iceberg one of them was your friend, Nico Robin."

All four of the Straw Hats were shocked when they heard that.

"Kit something stinks here… there's more to this." Said Kyubi.

Paulie began to accuse them of the assassination attempt.

"Shut up!" yelled Naruto, "Don't you think that we might have been framed we haven't seen Robin since yesterday and have been looking for her!"

"Wait…" said Franky who seemed genuinely concerned for some reason, "Does that mean Iceberg's dead?"

"No." answered Paulie, "We're here because he's alive."

That was when Kaku threw a tool at Luffy. It barely missed, it cut his cheek but that was about it.

"Dead or alive. "said Kaku, "Now you'll understand what it means to be wanted."

"You pirates have no recourse for what you do… the law can't protect you." Said Paulie.

"Yeah, yeah we're outlaws we get that." Said Naruto.

"Stop telling lies about Robin! You don't know anything about her!" yelled Luffy.

"Luffy…" whispered Nami as she watched.

"Let me talk to Ice Guy!" yelled Luffy, "It must be some other Robin!"

"Well it certainly not Batman's sidekick." Said Kyubi.

"What?" asked Naruto.

"I know this is a bad time but I had to make the joke, this is getting too serious and the writer's getting really depressed. Can't blame her though her cat is really old…" explained Kyubi.

"What the hell are you talking about?" asked Naruto with a sweat drop.

"You know I'm crazy sometimes so just ignore me like you usually do." Sighed Kyubi brushing it off.

"There's no way we're letting you see the mayor" said Lulu.

That was when the crowd watching began to demands their heads. Cheering for them to be killed.

Not only that but the crowd grabbed both Nami and Hinata.

"Hey these two are part of their crew!" yelled one of the town's people.

"Yeah!" yelled another.

"Just give it up!" said Paulie, "The news will spread fast you have nowhere to run."

Indeed word had spread and newspapers were being spread very quickly. In fact people already made fliers about it.

In fact Robin found one, but kept a straight face.

"So there you are." Said a voice.

She looked up and saw one of Naruto clones smiling at her. Robin didn't know this was a clone and froze.

Things were going to get very complicated form here on out… that was something she knew for sure.

Next Time: Naruto and Luffy continued their fight with the foreman can they convince them and the town they're innocent. Meanwhile Naruto's clone confronts Robin. Will she explain everything or figure he's just a clone? Find out next time.
