Chapter 92: Arc 8: Declaring War On The World Government
"The drawbridge?" Luffy echoed.
"Yeah." Zoro nodded. "The Franky Family is fighting for it at the moment. If they lower it, we'll be able to get to the other side at once."
"Really." Sanji tsked. "She's just right in front of us, too."
"Oi, CP-9!" Spandam barked. "Alright guys! I five your permission to annihilate them, but attack them from this Tower of Justice! You tako-pirates!" he mocked. "Even if you try your hardest, there's nothing you can do to change in the end. We have this assassin group, the CP-9's strength. We have the heavy Gates of Justice, impossible to open with mere human power. And more importantly, at this moment, I hold the authority to use this Golden Den Den Mushi and call upon Buster Call!" he bragged, holding the said Transponder Snail in his hand. "That's right." he gave the shocked Robin a smirk. "Exactly twenty years ago, it's the power that crushed your homeland, Nico Robin. The name Ohara, disappeared from the next year's map, didn't it?"
"That shitty mask..." Sanji hissed.
"You guys know," Sasha started. "Anyone who would actually give such a thing to an imbecile like him has to be a daft moron. I mean, really. Carrying that Den Den Mushi around like that is just asking it to be, I don't know, accidentally pressed and accidentally initiating a Buster Call."
"Now that you put it this way," Sanji noted. "That is very stupid."
"Look at this flag, pirate scum!" Spandam pointed to the World Government flag on the roof of the Tower of Justice. "That mark! It represents the unity of over 170 countries, dotting the four seas and the Grand Line. This is the world! Do you even get how insignificant your existences are compared to this? Do you know how powerful the organization after this woman is?"
"I understand Robin's enemy very well." Luffy declared. "Sogeking. Make that flag burst into flames."
"Roger." Sogeking replied. "New weapon: the Great Pachinko. Going by the name, Kabuto! Behold its immense power closely! Certain Kill: Firebird Star!" he fired a blast of flames at the World Government flag, setting it ablaze. "Done." he declared.
"Are you out of your mind?" Spandam demanded. "Don't think you'll be able to survive having the world as your enemy?"
"Bring it one!" Luffy snapped. "Robin! I still haven't heard it from your mouth! Say you want to live!"
"I want to live!" Robin wept. "Take me out to sea with you!"
"Let's go!" Luffy grinned, crackling his knuckles.
"The drawbridge is lowering." Chopper informed.
"Looks like it went well on those guys' side." Sanji remarked.
"Robin, we absolutely will save you!" Luffy promised.
"The drawbridge stopped?" Sanji blinked when the bridge on his side stopped moving after it was blasted by a cannon.
"Well done." Spandam was relieved. "I'll head to the Gates of Justice before they make it across. Let's go, Nico Robin. Someone escort Cutty Flam. Those pirates aren't even worth arresting. I have CP-9 here, an assassination squad. I've got Nico Robin, the sole survivor from an island whose people were plotting to resurrect an ancient weapon and Cutty Flam, the man who inherited the blueprints of such a weapon. There's no way in hell I'd risk losing the power this will earn me."
"Nico Robin." Franky started. "The rumors floating around about you are false. On the way over to this shithole, I realized you're anything but a 'demon' in pursuit of a weapon. This shipwrights of Water 7 who passed down the blueprints never considered their creation a weapon. Hey, Spanda. Tom-san and Iceburg protected the blueprints with their lives. If an idiot like you got his paws on an ancient weapon and went on a rampage, a second weapon could be constructed to counter it: those were the architects' intentions. It is certainly possible for you to use Nico Robin to resurrect the weapons. As a result, even if she was against the idea, she is still a dangerous woman. However, she has nakama who are willing to look death in the face to protect her. Therefore, I'm going to take a chance: I'm betting on their victory."
"Oi, pirates!" Grandma Kokoro voiced from Nami's Den Den Mushi. "I can hear everything. Why are you wasting your time here?"
"Wasting our time?" Nami echoed. "But the bridge is only half lowered..."
"Halfway is enough." Grandma Kokoro instructed. "I'll be there in four seconds. Take a big leap into the waterfall."
"The sea train..." Luffy turned when he heard the Rocketman's whistle. "Heh." he grinned.
"Aniki, I don't like that 'heh'..." Sasha warned.
"Granny Kokoro." Franky grinned. "Nice timing." he climbed up the wall and jumped off.
Extending both arms, Luffy encircled his crew in his arms and dive-bombed off the Tower of Law.
"If we get out of this alive, aniki, I'm so killing you!" Sasha screamed.
Luffy just laughed at his sister's threat.
"The Rocketman's still in business." Grandma Kokoro beamed, driving Rocketman straight through the Tower of Law. "Never underestimate Tom's Workers: the legendary shipbuilding company." the sea train then leapt off the half-drawn bridge, safely catching the Straw Hat crew and Franky before flying straight towards the Tower of Justice.
SailorStar9: Any OOC-nes is regretted. *Sighs* Don't you just hate plot bunnies sometimes? Reviews are much appreciated.
