Chapter 298: Hogback's Hubris

Chopper was beyond angry. After all that was said. Hogback (he didn't diverse the title of Doctor any more) needed to go down. He turned into his heavy point and lunged at Cindry.

Cindry on the other hand tossed her plates at him.

While they did hit, Chopper grabbed her.

"Stop this!" yelled Chopper.

"Why you." Cried Cindry slamming plate on him.

"Chopper!" yelled Robin.

"Oh no…" whispered Sakura.

"That's not your fight!" yelled Sasuke's zombie barely missing her with a sword.

Hogback on the other hand was laughing.

"I modified her strength so she's battle ready!" he explained.

But Chopper didn't listen to that.

"You don't have to listen to him!" yelled Chopper.

"I'll kill you!" yelled Cindry kicking him.

However Chopper would not let go of her.

"You poor thing what would your family say if they saw you like this!" said Chopper.

"Let of me!" yelled Cindry.

Sakura meanwhile dodged Sasuke's attacks.

"They made a better choice with this zombie than they did with mine." Thought Sakura.

Sakura looked at Chopper.

"I wonder if she can get through to her." She thought.

She had to dodged another attack from Sasuke's zombie.

"Man I can't get an opening." She muttered.

Back with Chopper he continued his attempts for teach out to Cindry.

"You were born with both a body and soul but both died a long time ago." Said Chopper, "And yet your body is moving on it's own! Where's the meaning in that!"

"Are you blind?" asked Hogback, "Admit it! This is the dream of mankind! To revive the dead!"

"Is being able to move enough?" asked Chopper.

Chopper took a breath.

"Human beings need more than that to be free!" yelled Chopper, "You're the one not treating them like human beings!"

Cindry was shocked while Hogback was angry.

"Robin use salt on her now"! yelled Chopper.

Hands appeared on Chopper and grabbed some of the salt.

"Penguin! Jigoro! Help Cindry! Destroy all enemies in your way!" ordered Hogback.

Inuppe managed to kick Chopper so hard he fell over and let go of Cindry.

Zoro's zombie used 108 Pound Cannon, thankfully Chopper dodged the attack, as did Inuppe who was nearly caught in the crossfire.

Robin thankfully grabbed Zoro's zombie in arms, however the zombie got free.

"It's her!" yelled Zoro's zombie ads he got free, ""Destroy all enemies in your way""

"Hey why are you attacking me!" yelled Inuppe.

Inuppe went into attack Zoro's zombie.

"Don't get in my way!" yelled Inuppe.

"You're in my way!" yelled Zoro's zombie.

"No you!" yelled Inuppe, "That order to destroy all those in the way was meant for me!"

"No, me!" yelled Zoro's zombie.

"Great…" muttered Sasuke zombie.

He decided to walk over there forgetting about Sakura.

"What?" asked Sakura with a sweat drop.

"Both of you are idiots and you have to stop fighting." Said Sasuke's zombie.

He sweat dropped at the two and realized.

"You know what I'm not going to do anything." Said Sasuke's zombie.

Sakura breathed a sigh of relief as she joined Robin.

"He forgot about me." Said Sakura.

Robin smiled on the other hand.

"That's probably just how Sasuke would react if he had to play peacemaker." She said.

"Yeah." Agreed Sakura.

"Hey!" yelled Hogback, "Cooperate!"

However they didn't hear the order as Hogback had his mouth shut.

"This fight is getting good." Said Robin, "I wonder what will happen if they don't' take your orders."

Of course the fight began to get serious.

"Even if they don't have their memories those two can't just get along." Said Chopper.

"Those two never change." Sighed Robin.

"Hmmm…" said Sakura.

"What?" asked Robin.

"I wonder if that means Naruto's zombie and Hinata's zombies are in love but can't admit it." Said Sakura.

"Now's not the time to be thinking that." Said Chopper with a sweat drop.

That was when Robin got a brilliant idea.

She let go of his mouth.

"You know this tower has a really high edge, why haven't you told any of us to jump off the edge?" asked Robin.

"What? Are you right in the head." Said Hogback, "Fine, I'll tell you as much as you want."

He took a breath and yelled out "Go jump off the edge! All three of you should jump off the edge!"

Both zombies stopped fighting.

"Okay." Said both of them.

"Whatever." Muttered Sasuke's zombie.

The three of them ran towards the wall, crashed through and jumped off the tower.

Everyone as so quiet in there.

"Well…" said Sakura, "That happened…"

"We're not going to do it." Said Robin trying not to laugh.

"WHY YOU!" yelled Hogback, "You trick me you scum!"

Chopper began to pound his fist.

"All right Luffy will beat Moria and purify all of the zombies! I just want to pound you." Said chopper.

Hogback knew Chopper was pissed.

"Cindry! Buy me some time! I'm going to escape." Said Hogback.

However Cindry just stood there.

'Huh! What?" asked Hogback, "Even if you're defeated I'll just put another shadow in you!"

Cindry stood there crying.

"My body… I can't move…" cried Cindry.

"What!" yelled Hogback, "What's the matter? You can't move your body what are you talking about? And stop with those fake years!"

Hogback continued to yell at her even if she couldn't stop crying and wasn't able to move.

"It's as if her body is unable to let her move." Sid Robin.

"Didn't she die years ago?" asked Sakura.

"She did." Said Chopper, "Can a soulless body have it's own will?"

"IT's probably not something that you could know even if you read many books." Said Robin.

However Cindry managed to get over everything.

"I will kill those three." Mumbled Cindry.

"That's right Cindry!" said Hogback, "You're back to normal! Now buy me some time to escape."

"Really?" asked Sakura, "There's three of us and two of you!"

"Oh what can you do?" asked Hogback.

That was when Robin created many arms to hold Cindry.

"Oh…" said Hogback who began to run away.

"Sakura!" yelled Chopper.

"Right!" said Sakura.

Sakura lifted Chopper and threw him at Hogback. Chopper landed hard on Hogback and managed to grab him.

"You stupid pirate deer!" yelled Hogback, "How dare you try to pretend to be human and side with corpses! You're not even human, you're a monster!"

"Our captain can get monsters, cyborgs, demon hosts, beats, perverts and extremely pessimistic people to join his crew!" said Chopper, "He doesn't need to make these voiceless corpses submit to him!"

He turned to Robin.

"Robin!" he called out.

"Sure this." Said Robin.

Feet appeared from under Chopper's, soon more and more appeared until they were really high.

"Hey! What are you doing Dr. Chopper! IF you drop me and hit my head then you'll ruin one of the greatest treasures of mankind. My brain!" begged Hogback.

"I don't care it's the one of the only most rotten than these stupid zombies." Said Chopper.

Chopper got ready to perform the attack.

However it is prefabs best to cut away to a very different fight that happened several minutes before…

Naruto and Hinata continued their search for their zombies.

"Man… when are we going to find either." Said Naruto.

"I don't' know." Said Hinata.

"Who are you!" demanded a voice.

They turned to see Hinata's zombie with Yagura.

Naruto noticed the tails.

"Hey! IF you got tails then you'll my shadow!" yelled Naruto.

"What's that supposed to mean!" yelled Yagura, "I'm Yagura!"

"Yagura! That name sounds familiar." Said Naruto.

"It doesn't matter right now…" said Kyubi.

"Right!" said Naruto, "I'm going to get my shadow back!"

"I'd like to see you try!" said Yagura.

Indeed the fight between Yagura and Naruto was about to begin… but who knew hat would happen… only that this was going to be one of Naruto's together battles.

Next Time: Naruto and Yagura begin their fight while Hinata tries to fight her zombie. What will happen? Will Naruto discover Yagura's identity? Find out next time!
