Chapter 284: General Zombies

Luffy knew that they had to search for their missing crew mates. However he was distracted by something shiny… namely a suit of armor.

"I can't believe he did that!" yelled Kyubi.

"He's always wanted to wear one…" thought Naruto.

"But what about finding Hinata…" said Kyubi.

Naruto was torn a bit…

Although he didn't have defend him very much, as Franky was berating Luffy for him putting on the armor. Although the conversation got weird and Franky was going to sing a song about a man's dream…

"Okay… this is an area we have to be extra careful in…" said Fu.

"You're running the fun!" yelled the pig head zombie.

"I don't want anyone else to suffer like I did." Said Fu.

That was when they got to the spot Fu was worried about which resembled a coliseum.

"We have to get through here to get outside." Said Isaribi.

"She's right… something's coming…" said Kyubi.

That was when a suit of armor dropped down from the celling and tried opt stab Franky.

"It's a living suit of armor!" said Isaribi.

"It's probably a zombie." Said Gaara.

"It is… I tried to fight them all but they dumped me out." Said Fu, "I think he's afraid if he tried to steal Chomei's shadow too!"

They watched at Franky fought the knight. The fighting was rather intense but in the end Franky managed to defeat the knight… well almost… after many attacks the knight started getting back up.

They heard laughing from the pig head zombie. He was far away from them… somehow…

"You will know real fear…" mocked the Pig Head Zombies, "Here there are…"

That was when Fu used her sparkly breath on it…

"What the hell!" yelled the pig head zombie.

"We're dealing with the strongest zombies right now!" said Fu.

"Hey!" yelled the pig head zombie.

"We all have to be careful…" said Fu.

"Quit stealing my thunder!" yelled the pig headed zombie.

"These zombies are much stronger than the other ones! And they used famous warriors!" said Fu, "And some other weird things…"

"What weird things…" said Kiba.

"Well… I know there's a boar woman…" said Fu

Kiba sweat dropped when she said that.

"IF we want to rescue your crew we have to get through here as fast as possible!" said Fu.

"Oh come on!" yelled the pig head zombie, "I had a speech down and everything!"

"It was about how zombies feel no pain isn't it?" asked Fu.

"Of course it was!" yelled the Pig Head Zombie.

"Sorry for stealing your thunder…" said Fu.

"No you're not! Screw you! Screw all of you!" yelled the Pig Head zombie, "I can't wait for all of you new friends to get captured!"

That was when suddenly a wall with a face came down shuttering out the hallway they were in.

"I think you made things worse…" said Kiba putting his hand on her shoulder.

"Yeah…" sighed Fu.

"Oh come! I didn't think that was that bad!" said a voice.

They turned to see a zombie woman, however the strangest things was that she had what appeared to be giant butterfly wings sown onto her back.

"You!" yelled Fu.

Fu went into attack the zombie woman.

"Okay… that was weird…" said Kyubi.

That was when even more zombies showed up.

"Since that crazy girl stole his thunder…" said one of the zombies.

"Seriously… you're using that term again…" said Kyubi.

"We are the General Zombies! The most powerful of the group…" said the zombie.

"They're all wearing armor!" said Franky.

"And all those attacked didn't do much for you Franky." Said Kiba.

"Don't 'remind me!" yelled Franky.

"We just have to add more!" said Naruto summoning many clones.

"We just have to get through this room…" said Robin.

They all nodded in agreement.

Gaara uncorked his gourd and Isaribi turned into her fish form.

"Let's go!" called out Luffy.

They nodded and headed to battle.

They fought the zombies.

With Kiba he dodged a large muscle-bound woman zombie.

"Whoa!" said Kiba, "I didn't know woman came in that size…"

"What did you say about me?" asked the muscle-bound woman zombie going in for a punch, thankfully Kiba dodged. As the area she punched cracked due to the zombies strength.

"Sorry for insulting your looks!" said Kiba.

The zombie woman glared at him.

Nearby… Gaara was tossing the zombies left and right when a zombie using two swords showed up.

"What do you want?" asked the zombie.

Gaara didn't answer, but couldn't get the feeling that there was something familiar about the zombie.

With the real Naruto, he was dodging various zombie attacks left and right.

"Excuse… me…" said a quiet voice.

That when he saw a young woman zombie blushing.

"I'm sorry…" she whispered, "You seem nice and I don't want to hurt you…"

She then ran to Naruto with her palms out and struck Naruto. However nothing happened.

"Was that supposed opt do something…" said Naruto.

"It was… but I don't know what happened…" said the zombie, "Oh no… it's because I'm a zombie! I can't use chi…"

"What?" asked Naruto.

'That zombie is a Gentle Fist user… but can't use her abilities…" said Kyubi.

That was when the zombie woman blushed at Naruto then looked away, then began to fiddle with her fingers.

"IS she acting like…" said Naruto.

"She is… but the way behind you…" said Kyubi.

But Naruto didn't have anytime to react.

Nearby, Luffy dodged and attack. it was the same as one of Zoro's.

"Zoro is that you?" asked Luffy.

No it was a zombie using the same attack.

"A scar on the back is a sword's man shame…" said the zombie, "But I'm covered in scars?"

"What but who are you… Zoro?" asked Luffy confused.

However Luffy too was captured.

Outside, Gaara, Kiba (with Akamaru) and Isaribi all made it out of the room.

"You guys okay?" asked Isaribi.

"Yeah…" said Kiba.

"I had no problems…" said Gaara.

"Of course you didn't…" said Kiba.

That was when they heard clinging chains and they saw a coffin being dragged away.

"Get me out of here! Now!" they heard Naruto's voice from the coffin.

"Of course he got captured…" said Isaribi.

Gaara was about to use his sand but Fu was sent flying (and not in the sense she was able to fly) into Gaara. She his shield.

"You okay?" asked Kiba.

"I'm fine…" said Fu.

They saw the woman with the butterfly wings.

"Sorry but you're still not strong enough!" said the woman.

"Why you…" said Fu.

"Should we follow the coffin?" asked Isaribi.

Before she could answer, the butterfly woman flew towards the other side of the bridge using her strange wings.

"She can fly with those?" asked Isaribi.

"Yeah… they're not for show…" sighed Isaribi.

That was when Robin and Franky exited the room as well.

"So you guys are here?" asked Gaara.

"You haven't crossed the bridge?" asked Franky.

"She's blocking the way!" said Kiba.

"She's stronger than she looks…" muttered Fu.

""Where's Naruto and Luffy?" asked Robin.

"Well Naruto…" said Kiba.

That was when they heard the clanging… and another coffin was attached to the chain.

"Where am I? Get me out of here!" they heard Luffy's voice from the coffin.

"Really…" said Isaribi pinching the bridge of her nose.

"I take it Naruto got captured too…" sighed Franky.

"Oh yeah…" said Kiba.

"Cho! Stand down!" called out a voice.

"Fine…" sighed the butterfly woman.

The butterfly woman flew away.

"Are you going to follow her?" asked Gaara.

"We need to rescue those two first…" said Fu, "Though it's too late for the rest of your crew…"

"What?" asked Isaribi.

That was when they saw the thing that told the butterfly woman (apparently named Cho) to stand down… apparently it was a giant spider, monkey creature… Or just a Spider Monkey.

"Seriously…" said Isaribi.

"I guess who's ever controlling them have a good since of humor…" said Kiba.

"Well the guy who made them did give a woman named Cho butterfly wings…" said Fu.

They watched at the coffin fully crossed the bridge.

"Oh you missed your chance." Said the Spider Monkey.

"What are you going to do with them!" demanded Franky.

"That doesn't matter… you should be more worried about yourself…" said the Spider Monkey, "I'm in front of you… and the Zombie Generals behind you… this will be the end of your little pirate crew."

Indeed this was going to uphill battle that was only going to get worse from here on out…

Next Time: With Luffy and Naruto captured and a giant Spider Monkey they have to deal with things aren't looking good for that group. Meanwhile with Nami's group they finally see the Invisible thing... and it's a man... a really ugly man... What will happen? Find out next time!
