Chapter 332: Beneath the Mask
Luffy was an idiot, by this point the entire crew knew that. So when he went for a joy ride none of them should have been surprised… especially since it he was dragged under water.
Naruto was an idiot and everyone knew that…
Chopper was pretty intelligent… but naïve at times…
Brook was new so they haven't really gaged his level yet.
But yeah… that led to more problems.
"Did you three seriously have to do that! That was really, really stupid!" scolded Isaribi, "I mean come on!"
Yeah the three tried to save Luffy from drowning, despite the fact that Isaribi could do the job.
"You're all idiots!" yelled Isaribi.
"What were you thinking!" yelled Nami.
"That was extremely stupid! Even for you!" yelled Franky.
"It was funny though." Said Fu.
"Don't encourage them!" yelled everyone else.
The Makuro group all saw Camie.
"Get her boys! She's vulnerable!" yelled Makuro.
"Little help here!" yelled Pappagu.
That was when it turned out Zoro had cut open Hatchan's cage, freeing him.
"Hey! I'm free of the rope and cage." Said Hatchan, "Thanks Roronoa!"
"It was captain's orders." Said Zoro.
Hatchan began to beat up the three fishman that were the ones that always tried to kidnap Camie.
However one of the flying fish riders began to attack them.
Thankfully Zoro was able to save them all. Also Hatchan apologized for their fight with Zoro just shrugging it off.
Meanwhile on the Thousand Sunny they shot at the Flying Fish Riders with the cannons.
"Hey big guys!" yelled Fu doing her own thing due to the fact she could fly.
"How is she flying!" yelled one of the flying fish riders.
"With wings." Said another.
"That's not what I meant." Said the first flying Fish Rider.
"Seriously man… it's a Devil Fruit Power!" yelled another.
That was when she did her dust attack blinding them.
"Some Weird Devil Fruit Power!" yelled one of them.
"Uh… I think one of them is about to crash into us." Said Kiba with a sweat drop.
"Crap!" said Naruto.
"Okay! Someone that isn't Luffy get the fish." Said Sanji.
"Why not me?" asked Luffy.
"Don't argue!" said Sanji.
Gaara jumped into the air with Sanji. Sanji kicked the rider just for good measure while Gaara slammed the fish into the deck.
"Look like we're going to be eating for dinner tonight." Said Luffy.
"Wait… I thought you wanted to ride it again?" asked Naruto.
Don't question his stomach." Said Kyubi.
"I do!" yelled Luffy.
That was when they saw the sky was filled with Dozens of the Flying Fishes.
"You know… I don't know if I have gotten a chance to prove myself for this crew." Said Brook.
"Huh… what do you mean?" asked Luffy.
"While I did help out in the fight with Shiki… I haven't been able to show what I can really do." Said Brook.
"I think you showed a lot." Said Fu.
"Just let him show what he can do." Said Gaara.
"He's got a point." Said Robin.
Book nodded and got ready to fight the Flying Fish.
He jumped up really high shocking everyone. With his sword and his violin he began to attack. He used a move that caused all of the flying Fish Riders and their fishes to fall asleep.
He then attacked them his sword.
Those that dodged both attacks started to follow him.
"What sort of trick was that!" yelled one of them.
"No tricks only music!" bragged Brook as he ran across the water.
Meanwhile Luffy grabbed another of the flying fishes.
"Not again!" yelled Ino.
"Seriously!" yelled Nami.
He rode the flying fish, but he discovered that it was still asleep from what Brook attacked it.
That was when Luffy crashed into a building thanks to it being asleep.
And the building belonged to the boss.
Iron Mask Duval. A man who recently became a powerhouse in the area. He wore an iron mask to hide what he looked like.
And there was a very good reason for it.
A reason Luffy saw when he got up.
"No way! It's you!" yelled Luffy in shock.
In his cage Kyubi started to laugh.
"What's so funny?" thought Naruto.
"Trust me! You'll see soon." Said Kyubi, "Try not to laugh when you see it though… you know just be polite."
"Naruto we could use some clones you know!" yelled Nami.
"Oh right!" said Naruto.
Meanwhile Zoro was breathing heavily.
"Hey!" called out Sasuke.
Zoro looked up and saw that Sasuke had joined him.
"What do you want?" asked Zoro.
"Great… to know that Sakura's paranoia about you is justified." Said Sasuke.
Zoro gritted his teeth.
That was when Brook joined them after running across the water and clearly exhausted.
"I've reached my limit." Said Brook, "I think I pulled my foot! Even though I don't have any muscles."
Then Brook noticed the state Zoro was in.
"You're still injured." Said Brook.
"Whatever." Said Zoro.
Sasuke looked at Zoro and seemed to glare him.
"Don't glare me." Said Zoro.
"Why?" asked Sasuke.
Then he got a flash of pain in his neck.
"Did you seriously forget about that thing!" yelled Zoro.
Sasuke didn't say anything. It had been a while since it bothered him.
"What's wrong?" asked Brook.
"Just an old injury." Muttered Sasuke not wanting to talk about it.
"I see." Responded Brook.
But thanks to the seal's flare up with Brook's exhaustion and Zoro's injuries acting up, they didn't notice the guy coming in for the attack.
Thankfully Hatchan came in and saved the three of them.
"Thanks… I guess you saved us." Said Zoro.
"It was nothing." Said Hatchan.
However that was when some of the Flying Fish Riders showed up to attack.
Thankfully the three managed to fight them off saving Hatchan.
Meanwhile the rest of the crew were fighting them off on the Thousand Sunny.
Nami shocking them, Naruto attacking them with clones, Robin breaking their bones, Sakura picking up a fallen Flying Fish and tossing it back at them, Franky not being hurt by their shots and punching them right back.
Yes, that last one really happened.
"There's a lot of them." Said Kiba as Akamaru was in his clone form.
"Yeah, but I'm sure we can take them down." Said Usopp.
On the floating city, Luffy ran by Zoro, Sasuke, Brook and Hatchan.
"Out of the way! There's a crazy guy riding a cow in a mask!" yelled Luffy.
"What?" asked Hatchan.
"Do what he says because chances are that's what he's running from." Muttered Sasuke.
They turned and saw that the building Luffy was left ad was destroyed and there was a large man riding a bison.
The crew all watched at the man started ranting.
"Today is a happy day! The man I want to kill is here! Miracles can happen." Said Duval.
The crew all looked at him confused.
"I was just going about my business when he suddenly dragged me to hell. Today I'll get my revenge!" ranted Duval, "Against Black Leg Sanji."
"What?" asked Sanji palling.
"Why would he want to kill me?" asked Sanji.
"Are you from the north blue!" yelled Ino.
"What!" yelled Duval, "What does have to do with anything."
"Seriously!" yelled Sanji.
"It was the first thing I could come up with." Said Ino with a shrug.
"Then it could be from back at the Baratie." Said Nami.
"Sanji doesn't have that good of a memory when it came to pissing people off. But I took note of people." Said Ino, "I'd remember if he pissed off a guy who looks like that."
"Don't play dumb Sanji! It wasn't that long ago." Said Duval.
He began to toss harpoons onto the ship's deck, where it started to melt things.
"What are these harpoons!" yelled Usopp.
"They're full of poison!" yelled Duval.
The crew dodged as they best they could.
"Know the extent of my wrath!" yelled Duval.
Luffy watched this and knew what he had to do to stop him.
"I saw under his mask." Said Luffy.
"What do you know him?" asked Sasuke.
"Yeah, and you all know him too." Said Luffy.
"We do?" asked Zoro.
"Yeah! But just don't' be surprised when I knock it off." Said Luffy.
Luffy ran towards Duval, and punched off the mask.
Everyone in the crew were shocked by his face.
"Go ahead and look at my scarred face!" yelled Duval.
The entire crew was shocked.
"No way…" whispered Nami.
"I should have known this would happen." Muttered Ino.
"You know… what… you're actually right about that." Said Isaribi.
Naruto bit his tongue so he wouldn't laugh.
However then Naruto saw Sanji's face, he was absolutely furious.
"Yeah… that's another reason why you shouldn't laugh." Said Kyubi .
Naruto nodded looking at that face.
Sanji dove into the water as Duval ranted.
"It wasn't easy finding you. The wanted poster had the wrong face! Even if the Marines and Bounty seen the real guy they might not have recognized him! But they would have thought they would have recognized him! When they saw found him! Black Foot Sanji! I would just say…" said Duval, "I'm not him! You got the wrong guy!"
Why was he ranting about that? Well the reason is simple: He looked exactly like Sanji's crappy wanted poster…
Yes… there was really a man that looked exactly like that…
Though like Ino said… they really should have known that would happen…
It was only matter of time they found a guy who looked like that, and it was probably for the best that it happened sooner rather than later…
But yeah… they had a formattable enemy… though one with a face that was quite ridiculous.
And it was a face Sanji was all too ready to pound.
Next Time: Sanji beats up the guy who looks like his wanted poster... because he hates his wanted poster... yeah... Anyways what will happen? find out next time!
