Hey guys! So I'm updating early again because I won't be able to update on Friday again, but fear not- I will have internet! I rushed this chapter a little because I really wanted to get to the next chapter, where it is essentially the climax- though some could argue this would be the climax as well. I'll leave it up to you guys next week. So read, enjoy, review!
Disclaimer: I don't own Gintama or One Piece
Spandam and Spandine stared in horror at the sight in front of them- their plan for complete reform and domination, was not only crumbling, but turning everything they worked for in the dust. Damn it all! All their work for nothing! THEY were the ones who contacted the Harusame when their agents happened to crash into Tenryubito territory, THEY were the ones who proposed the agreements, and THEY were the ones who coordinated all the connections and teamwork between the Mimiwarigumi, Harusame, and the Kihetai. Despite THEIR protesting of the Shisnengumi coming into the picture, proposed by that damned monocle-man, they still went ahead and brought the three commanding officers of the lesser police unit.
"DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!" Spandine got out his gun and took aim at Gintoki, who was too busy fighting Takasugi to notice him. "DAMN YOU ODD-JOBS! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!"
"FATHER!"
BANG!-CLANG!
Both Spandax men froze at the sight in front of them. Kaku and Jabra had stopped the bullet, and was glaring straight at them. Backing up slowly, they stopped once they felt other familiar presences behind them- Kalifa, Blueno, Kumadori, and Fukuro.
"Guys! Long time no see!" Spandam exclaimed cheerfully, rubbing his hands together in an attempt to hide his fear. "I meant to find you guys after Enies Lobbey, but things happened, and we were separated by those damned Strawhat pirates, and I tried to stop everyone from blaming you, I did!"
"Indeed. Are all of you seriously going to say that you'll throw away whatever alliances or loyalties you have towards the World Government, over a simple misunderstanding?" Spandam backed up his son.
"You haven't changed, Spandam-san." Kalifa and Blueno cleared the path for Lucci as he walked through. He had a glare in his eye, and he seemed to be even more threatening with Hattori on his shoulder. "You and Spandine still leave a trail of slime behind you as you walk."
"L-Lucci! You look well!" Spandam stuttered. "H-How's it going?"
"Just starting a coup against the system you and your idiot father attempted to setup. By taking credit for setting up this network, you two would've been promoted tp almost Admiral level in authority, so you'd be able to control this multi-universe web. Are you two so power-hungry that you'd sacrifice an entire planet over?"
"Hey! Everything I did was for the good of the people!"
PUNCH!
Quicker than anyone could blink, Lucci punched Spandam and knocked him straight into his father. "Don't ever say you did anything for the people; everything you did was to gain recognition and favoritism from the World Government. Now thanks to your selfishness, this entire mess of a second war has broken out!"
"Even so! You can't do anything to stop it! The war's already started, with the end result being the annihilation of the Revolutionary Army and Pirate race! Those inferior beings will sink into the bottom of the sea where they belong!" Spandam shouted.
"That's just it, Spandam-san…we never cared about the Revolutionaries, Pirates, or these outsides that came to our world. They're on their own from this point, and have their goals set on other things." Kalifa pused her glasses up. "We only came here for one thing."
"We came to get our revenge, Spandam!" Fukuro exclaimed.
"Hey now!" Spandine shouted.
"You're not getting out unscathed either." Kaku spoke to the older man.
"Don't you get it, neither of you are leaving alive." Jabra and the rest of CP9 cracked their knuckles.
Sengoku vs. Garp
"Gahaha! Seems like things are well on their way, aren't they Sengoku?" Garp smiled at his frazzled friend. They had been fighting for several minutes, but despite Garp's discharge of military service, he still proved to be very formidable to the golden Buddha.
"Garp…why…why are you choosing to go against justice now? You were willing to toss your own grandson aside for the sake of our cause, yet now you choose this. Is it because Dragon's biological relation to you?" Sengoku asked.
"OF COURSE NOT! I'VE RAISED MY SONS ALL THE SAME!" Garp raised his fist. "Ace, Dragon, and Luffy are my grandsons are all the same, I just was confused at the time of Ace's execution. Duty was the thing that binded me to the Navy and World Government, and the motivation that kept me going. I had a purpose and a reason to fight; unlike my idiot grandsons, I didn't grow up with brothers or sisters, so I was just fighting for hell of it. The Navy gave me a rason and purpose to fight; it gave an old wrecking ball like me a job, so naturally I felt indebted to it."
"Garp…"
"Loyalty however…is when you have the urge to go against the purpose given to you, and protect the ones you'd even call your enemy. I didn't understand it at the time, but my grandsons and son didn't need the Navy or the World Government to provide them a place or a purpose in this world, so I tried to keep forcing it on them when they were little. But it backfired! They hate the very idea of the Navy!" Garp laughed.
"Garp…I remember when you first had Dragon…I don't think I've ever seen you so excited or happy about anything." Sengoku said. "You raised your son to be the perfect marine from when he could walk, to the point of mastering military strategy and World Government resource routes. You ironically created the world's greatest threats."
"I know! That's my son for yah!" Garp laughed, but frowned when he noticed his son and grandson run towards their troubled comrade. "Sengoku…what did you hope to accomplish in all this? Just what do you have against my family?"
"Garp, don't be ridiculous. You know that stems back into Sakazuki's family, but in any case…it just happened to be your family, it was just unfortunate that it was the case." Sengoku sighed. "This turned out to be a disaster, but I and the rest of the Navy officials agreed that this was a necessary development. When the Harusame were discovered, we saw an opportunity, Garp! Don't you see?! The opportunity to spread justice throughout existence!"
"Even if it means teaming up with pirates and terrorists?" Garp challenged.
"Necessary evils were needed, and esides…we were going to end the partnership once they were no longer needed." Sengoku explained.
"I see then, so you've become Doflamingo!" Garp smiled. "Don't worry Sengoku! I'll beat some sense into you!"
PUNCH!
Sengoku managed to catch Garp's punch in time, but it was messy. Garp had used all his force, and Sengoku was forced to use his underpowered arm to catch it. Growling, he let his flailing hand to rest and tried to return the favor with something else.
"SHOCK BLAST!" Sengoku shoved a palm against Garp. But the old man simply headbutt into his palm, and broke through the shock-wave without any problem. Sengoku's eyes widened in shock.
"Heh! I don't know what you were thinking Sengoku! A good marine never stops his training! He only gets stronger!"
Takasugi vs. Gintoki
The men ran past each other, clashing their swords at each other. Takasugi stood straighter and looked into the direction of the commotion. "Hn…seems as though Strawhat's about to go head to head with his tormentor."
"He's got his big boy pants, he doesn't need uncle Gintoki to hold his hand." Gintoki smirked and observed the scene in front of him as well. "Besides…this is father-son bonding that's long overdue; there's too many deadbeat dads in our world Takasugi; even in a different world, you see too many of them."
"Indeed. For once, I agree with you." Takasugi raised his sword above his head. "Let's continue this, Gintoki."
"Ah. Damn those meddlesome interruptions." Gintoki charged forward and brought his front foot forward, and thrusted his sword out aggressively.
Takasugi quickly blocked, but was sent a few feet back; he raise his blade above his head to block the incoming blow. When it didn't come, his eyes widened at the mistake, and suddenly felt a sudden pain in his stomach.
"One point for me."
STAB!
Gintoki's eyes widened and coughed up blood; his hands grabbed for the sword that was through his stomach. Takasugi smirked. "Two points for me."
KICK!
Both men privyed away from each other, and glared at each other; and in a blow of power, their strikes began again.
Kawakami Bansai vs. Zoro
Zoro snarled and slashed away at the strings blocking his path.
"Roronora-san, struggling only makes it worse." Bansai said, standing on the strings several feet above Zoro. He trapped the green samurai between two rock ledges, and was preventing him from getting to his beautiful crewmate. Bansai frowned. "Try to focus on your own fights, if you don't mind."
"Screw you! She's my nakama!" Zoro hissed wen he felt one of the steel strings cut through his flesh slightly. "Damn it! Get the fuck out of my way!"
"After we finished our fight; Akainu-sama does not intend to kill Nico-sama anytime soon, so please allow your captain and his father to handle it." Bansai answered, frowning at the careless mistakes the marimo was making. "I'd appreciate it if you took this fight more seriously."
"Seriously…you want serious?!" Zoro suddenly turned on him, and got into a crouching position. After a split second, he yelled- "SENRYUU CRUSH!"
Instantly, the strings were flattened, causing Bansai to lose his balance in surprise.
KICK!
The music man then felt a tremendous shove to his side, and found himself rolled up in his own music strings. Struggling to get up, he sighed at his mistake. "How careless of me." He noticed Zoro running towards Robin's direction. "Unfortunately for you Roronora-san…you assume carelessness in your current position is…"
PULL!
Zoro flopped to the ground at something jerking on his left foot; he was about to get up, but froze when he felt the familiar metal slice through his upper foot. Fuck. That bastard got his Achilles heel. He glowered back at Bansai, who had recovered and was walking towards him with his sword raised.
"Unfortunately, Roronora-san your tactics weren't good enough. I find myself disappointed at your skill level; announcing your attacks when they're publicly known isn't generally a wise idea." The musician raised his sword above his head. "Any last words."
"Yeah, you should try toy-making." Zoro turned over on his back suddenly, and spun his sword, collecting the strong from Bansai's sword and instrument. Before Bansai knew it, Zoro held the weapon with a victorious smirk, and held the item in place so the strings would keep their positions over Bansai's jugular.
"Well played Roronora-san." Bansai gave satisfied nod. "There's more to this fight yet."
Aokiji vs Akainu (Robin is saved from Akainu by Aokiji, Luffy, and Dragon)
"ROBIN!" Luffy and Dragon arrived at Aokiji's side. "BASTARD! LET ROBIN GO!"
"Strawhat…" Aokiji turned to acknowledge the D men. "You're timing couldn't be more inconvenient."
"Ice bastard! It's your fault that she's in that mess!" Luffy yelled.
While his son and former enemy fought with each other, he was staring into the eyes of his former brother-in-law. Looking between Robin and Akainu, Dragon spoke. "Sakazuki…be reasonable."
"You are to address me as Akainu; you lost that right when you brainwashed Lucinda." The red man threatened.
"EH?" Luffy and Aokiji turned their attention back to the situation.
"Fine, you're right." Dragon submitted. "And as a Navy Admiral, you have to agree that the methods you're using are most dishonorable, not to mention shameful. Would it not be better to show the strength of the Navy to the world by fighting fair?"
"And as the world will see, fighting fair is not an option in this situation." Akainu replied, and then he finally noticed it. These were all the people that had ruined his life or had tried to kill him over the years. "It's interesting that all of you are here like this."
"What do you mean?" Aokiji frowned.
"I mean that this is a hell of a place for a family reunion." Akainu smirked evilly.
Dragon and Aokiji's eyes widened at what he was getting at, while Luffy just tilted his head in confusion; Robin bore the same confusion her captain did. "Akainu-san…" Robin spoke. "What are you talking about?"
"Ah, that's right. You don't know anything about your father, do you?" The red man loved the way the ice man clenched his fists.
Robin frowned. "What does my father have to do with this? From what I was told, he died before I was born."
"Yes, that's what your mother asked everyone to tell you; the scholars merely enforced it. You weren't shunned on Ohara for just your brain, you were shunned for being the center of conspiracy. Your mother did something that put your whole island at risk, long before she discovered the World's history." The red admiral explained.
"Akainu, shut up." Aokiji stepped forward.
"Oh, it's not just your mother that has committed sin against the world, Nico-chan." The red man antagonized. "Dragon and Aokiji committed the same sin, in which you and Strawhat are the result of."
Robin's eyes widened. "You can't mean…"
"Eh? Robin, what's he talking about?" Of course Luffy didn't catch his drift.
"You need me to spell it for you, Strawhat? Fine then. Both you and Nico-chan's fathers are-"
FREEZE!
Akainu felt himself unable to talk, as he felt his tongue become frozen, and his body was becoming increasingly more difficult to heat. He was becoming stiffer, and even found himself shivering despite his devil fruit.
Noticing the sudden stillness in his body, Robin quickly used her hands to get out of his grasp and ran to the side of her comrades. "Robin!" Luffy smiled. "Are you okay?"
"Eh. I'm fine, but…what is happening to Akainu?" She had to suppress a shutter; despite being magma, she knew Akainu was freezing to death; not just that…very slowly. His skin was slowly turning paler and paler, the blood veins and arteries in his body could be seen and were turning into a purplish color, his tongue was solid ice, and his breath was becoming shorter. Slowly, she turned to the former ice admiral, shocked at what she saw. Despite being ice, Aokiji's eyes were blazing with hatred and unleashed wrath; white steam was emitting from his body, and had merged with the air. Apparently, the same air Akainu breathed in. Forming an ice partisan, he grabbed it and slowly walked forward.
"On your knees, Akainu." He forced the man down to kneeling position. "I don't like revealing this ability to my opponents; it makes the fight to easily. Many people don't know about this ability of mine, but…I can dissolve microscopic ice shards into the air, and once they are breathed in by opponent, I have the ability to end the fight whenever I want. Because Robin was in the way of your mouth, it took awhile, but once you opened your mouth, you allowed the shards to latch onto your red blood cells, and I merely activated them."
"And like a virus, they attacked his natural and devil fruit systems at once." Dragon was amazed, he had no idea logia abilities extended that far.
"Precisely." He put his partisan to Akainu's neck; he inwardly smirked at Akainu's flinch. "Don't get excited, I want to watch you slowly chill to death, and once your body's perfectly frozen, I'll slice off that miserable head of yours and destroy it. That way, I don't have to look at it anymore."
"Aokiji, you damned traitor!" Akainu hissed; frustrated at his mistake.
"Me? The traitor? I don't think so." Aokiji laughed. "You're the traitor Akainu. You drove my wife into hiding, you ruined my career, you tired to kill me several times after I resigned, but most importantly…you tried to hurt my daughter." Aokiji punched Akainu to the ground. "That alone, would get me to kill you a throusand times over."
"Daughter?" Luffy looked at Robin, who wore a shocked expression on her face. "He's your father…?"
"Eh, he is. And…Luffy…your mother was Akainu's sister." Dragon finally confessed, in utter shock at the ice admiral's ability. Just as Luffy was about to react, something completely unexpected happened.
Kamui vs. Kagura and Umibozu
Kagura and Umibozu landed several feet away from each other; Kamui in berserk Yato mode was no joke.
BOOM! POW! KICK!
The youngest Yato winced as she felt her ribs; she thought she was strong once she saw the damage she had done in Yoshiwara, but this…was beyond any combat level she had felt. Kamui had both his arms broken, but he still managed to own them with his teeth and legs. She looked to her papi, and knew he wasn't doing much better.
"GAH!" Kamui stepped down harshly on her side, intending to cause some internal bleeding. Kagura's vision was going bleak; she didn't stand a chance before facing Kamui in normal mode, let alone monster mode.
BOOM! Umibozu managed to kick Kamui off, but it took a lot of his energy; he knew how to access his Yato blood, but it wasn't safe when another Yato was in that mode. They'd destroy the whole planet. Seeing as his son was about to charge, he did the only thing he could do- he put his body over Kagura.
"Papi…" Kagura clutched his shirt; genuinely scared.
"It's okay…let Papi do this one thing for you." He whispered; he'd be a father and protect her this once, damn it!
Sougo and Nobume
Both fighters dropped their fights and ran to a different destination.
BBBBAM!
Just as Kamui was about to deliver the finishing blow, Nobume appeared and uppercut her sword through his foot and into his stomach. She pinned him down with all her strength, and despite the awkward position he was in, she still found it difficult. Leaning forward, she bit her lip and put her mouth on Kamui; instantly, his movements stilled. She pulled her sword out from his foot and chest, and looked at him.
"Nobu-chan...?" Kamui asked, dazed. After looking at himself and the surroundings, he put two an two together. "You saw it huh? What'd you think?"
"I've seen scarier." She shrugged, and gestured back to his opponents. Okita and Umibzou were attempting to stabilize Kagura,while the girl had lost consciousness. Kamui didn't miss the look of desperation in his little sister's lover.
Standing up on a limp, Kamui looked to see Abuto who looked bloody and beat-up, but at least he still had his dignity intact. Sighing, Kamui leaned into Nobume and allowed her to lead him back to safety. "We're done here, I guess. No point in fighting like this."
"Understood, though…I don't think these marines and World Government agents like the idea of it." Abuto frowned.
"GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!" Umibzou yelled, trying to get through the sea of uniforms, trying to get to Whitebeard's ship; Kagura needed a doctor. Sougo wasn't even bother warning people; he was just slashing whatever came into his way; pirates and marines both were falling to the panicked samurai.
Kagura felt herself losing consciousness, until-
CRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAASSS SSSSSH!
Everyone ceased their actions and fighting to see what that loud explosion was. Sengoku thought he was going to have an aneurism- there…in the center of the main Marineford tower…was a giant red spaceship. It had crashed apparently.
With Whitebeard
The old man stared in mild interest in what was happening, he could only wonder what else would make this show more crazy, but that was when he noticed the two samurai. Gitnoki and Takasugi looked like they had seen a ghost and wanted to beat the shit out of it. And the old man would find that they would find they had good reason for this malicious feeling.
Spaceship Arrival
The spaceship opened, and CRASH! A small group of people were shot from the rocket entry way like a cannon, and the occupants soon introduced themselves.
"AAAAAAAH! KINTOKI! HOW'S IT GOING?" Leave it to Sakamoto to crash a ship into the middle of the battleground. And as he was flying; Takasugi grabbed a rocket launched and fired a missile at him, and luckily hit. "YAY! BARBEQUE! WANT SOME MUTSU-SAN?"
"Sir, you're afro's on fire." She sighed; falling into a battlefield was normal for them.
"OUT OF WAY!" If everyone was seeing right, a white giant puppy dog came flying down, with another swords man…and a guy in duck costume? "COME ELIZABETH! SADAHRAU-DONO! LET US SHOW THIS WORLD THE NEW ERA OF JAPAN!"
"ZURA! YOU IDIOT!" Gintoki shouted at them. "WHY ARE YOU HERE?! WHAT'S WITH THE MUTT?! SAKAMOTO! I'LL KILL YOU!"
"IT'S NOT ZURA! IT'S KATSURA!" His comrade yelled, knocking marines down as Sadaharu ran towards Kagura.
"That reminds me, Katsura-san said you'd cover the ticket cost." Mutsu said to Gintoki.
"SCREW HIM!" Gintoki shouted. Takasugi could only sigh; so much for their final showdown.
Review please! Sorry if Sakamoto's intro. was rushed, was kind of jumpy when I wrote this.
