Chapter 231: Arc 14: The Straw Hats Under Attack!


"The Navy is coming." Kyros warned. "Hurry up and get ready."

"They're coming finally!" Usopp panicked.

"You don't have to tell us that." Kin'emon stated. "We've been prepared to escape at the drop of a hat. We were just waiting for Law-dono to wake up.

"It's rather strange that they didn't come for us until now." Kanjuro noted.

"But we have a problem." Kin'emon pointed out. "We don't have a ship."

"Leo, did you do what I asked you?" Kyros asked.

"Sure." Leo confirmed. "I did everything as you said. Crest Head-san, it seems like they're heading towards the Palace as well. The warriors are in danger."

"Okay." Bartolomeo grinned. "Thanks for you concern, little guy. We've been keeping an eye on the Navy the whole time, too. Everything'll be alright. Luffy-senpai and everyone, I'll lead the way. Run straight to the port in the east."

"But there are lots of Navy soldiers in town, right?" Usopp pointed out. "What should we do about them?"

"Don't worry." Bartolomeo assured. "Our allies have already been standing by at strategic points for quite a while to help you all escape from this country whenever you wake up. We'll clear the path for you. We have a ship for you at the east port."

"Bellamy, can you get up?" Sasha turned to the still bandaged pirate.

"Yeah, I can even run now." Bellamy replied. "Trafalgar, why didn't you leave me to my fate? That was supposed to the place where I died."

"It was Thalassa-ya's request." Law replied. "You can die here if you want."

"I'm fully recovered thanks to that dwarf." Bellamy retorted. "How could fighting the Navy possibly lead to me dying?"

"Just find a way to drop dead, idiot." Law fired back.

"Enough!" Sasha barked, before the argument could escalate.

"We don't have time to think!" Bartolomeo agreed, hearing the Navy soldiers closing in. "Let's just run. Let me handle this." he added, the group exited the house and coming under Navy fire. "Barrier!" he manifested a shield to blocked out the bullets. "Luffy-senpai?" he blinked when Luffy stopped suddenly.

"I've got something to do." Luffy replied. "So just go on ahead."

"You're still going then." Sasha knew what her brother was thinking. "Just go, but remember, we don't have much time."

"Got it." Luffy nodded and split up.

"Zoro, you're going in the wrong direction!" Sasha barely managed to pull the direction-challenged swordsman back on track.


"Luffy isn't here yet?" Usopp asked, the group had arrived at the port.

"Trafalgar Law's not here either." Cavendish added.

"What are both our bosses doing?" Hajrudin retorted.

"There are some enemies that can't be held back even by us." Bartolomeo added.

"And speak of the devil..." Sasha muttered, seeing Fujitora burst out from the smoke on a stone slab as a foothold.

"That's..." Zoro grinned, readying his swords.

"Fujitora!" Usopp screamed. "What should we do?"

"We have only one choice." Zoro drew his swords and sent an attack at Fujitora who jumped to dodge the attack.

"Zoro-senpai, you and your friends should stand back." Bartolomeo stopped Zoro from engaging Fujitora. "Leave it..."

"Up to us." Cavendish declared.

"Barrier!" Bartolomeo's shield was immediately set up.
