Chapter 12: Fun At The Bakery Shop & The Full Power Of The Ti Ti Fruit
(Metal Town, Night time "Shopping District" 10:03 pm)
"Fresh pastries, bun bun breads and chocolate doughnuts for the cheap price of 200 beri each!" Yes I said it folks ONLY for a measly 200 Beri and your hungry will be satisfied!" a bakery man said loudly while still attending to his shop Sweeping Duties, Carlos was still slightly unstable and woozy from his two hour sprint with Lieutenant Kyofu, and his hungriness was through the roof.
The bakery shop smell finally met up with the half starved Carlos, you could of actually feel the lust and want in the air from Carlos's desires, with a smile on his face he then started to speak his mind.
"What is this heavenly smell...? Is this what they call love at first sight...? I have to find out where this lovely smell is coming from!" Carlos said while his nostrils was guiding him and his body was reacting with the flow. Carlos was now right in front of the bakery shop and noticed a small note on the door:
"If your a pirate or bandit please don't cause any trouble for this little bakery shop, we have little to no money, if you can't listen to out demands then we will be force to call the Marine Base Tycoon to help out with any and every riot that behold this shop."
Carlos just looked at the note with boredom in his eyes and dashed through the entry of the bakery shop still with a greed look on his face, he could now smell all the heavenly dough-made products now, and immediately raced towards the counter, he seen the man that was promoting about the cheap prices of his bakery products behind the store's counter now, Carlos stared at the man with a intense look and started shouting out his order: "CAN I HAVE 14 CHOCOLATE DOUGHNUTS, 10 BUN BUN BREADS, 9 PIECES OF FUDGED CAKE AND A PINT OF MILK! Oh yeah ummm please and thank you..."
The bakery man was almost in tears, his shop hasn't been so busy in the last few days and now some stranger he never seen before came and ordered big for once.
The bakery man now happily in tears looked at Carlos and said with a smiled "Thank you...thank you really...*sniff...you saved my shop from bankrupting ...*sniff *sniff...I'll go get you food right away and that pint of milk you order lets make it a gallon and the milk is on me!" the Bakery man left the counter and went towards the back of the shop to get the food Carlos order.
A few mintues passed and from nowhere Carlos screamed "OH SHIT! I forgot to awake Ken, he's going to be so MAD now!
I'll let him out right now because he must be as hungry as me if not more..." Carlos said while now feeling guilty, he started to open up his sniper rifle box and pulled his weapon out, on the side of the rifle was a couple of buttons, he pressed a few and from no where a gust of wind shot out the barrel of the sniper and Ken was sent flying across the shop head first while knocking over a couple of chairs.
Ken was now free from Tick Tock 's Space Time Shot, he started rubbing his head immediately because of all the bruises and bumps that were stacked on top of one another from the chair incident, the first thing that came to the mind of the starving Ken was "FOOD".
Ken stood up from the ground and dashed towards the counter noticing the amazing smell. While running he knocked Carlos off his feet mistakenly, but even the mass of Carlos wasn't enough to stop his frantic sprint towards the delicious bakery delights.
Ken was now at the counter he could smell the food behind the counter as if it was in his face in 3D, he was about to jump over the counter to find out where the delicious aroma was coming from, but Carlos was able to grabbed Ken by arm pits while he was in a rabbit-like stands just about to hop right over the counter to attack the smell that has bother his nose so much. "Chill out Ken, their no point in stealing MY food...if you want to order you something then please do so, but this man is a really nice person that is also struggling with making money for his poor little bakery shop financially and if you would steal from such a man, you really are a heartless bastard!" Carlos said while looking at Ken with passionate eyes, Ken didn't really know what was happening, but he did understand that he would have to pay for the delicious pastries (which he'd rather just eat and run like normal) but since Carlos felt strongly about it he'd listen this one time "Alright Carlos, I'll pay this one time, but don't forget that were pirates, buying too many things will stain our reputation...UNDERSTAND."
Carlos looked up relieved that Ken listened to his iffy demand, but also saddened that his captain had to fussed at him about piracying of all things. Carlos released his grip on Ken, and simply went pick up one of the falling chairs and sat down to the closes table. Ken ringed the bell that resided on the counter and waited tell a happy looking man enter the other end of the counter, he asked Ken what he would like to eat but at this point he was so hungry he didn't care, he looked backwards facing Carlos while pointing towards him and said " I would like 2 times of what he's having please."
The man almost had a stroke, he didn't believe what this man just demanded. This was way more than a normal human could bare in their stomachs, he had to make sure this golden haired boy knew what he was asking for. "Sir do you know how much food this man ordered and y...you wanna double it right!? He ordered 14 Choclote Doughnuts, 10 Bun Bun Breads, 9 Pieces of Fudged Cakes and a pint of Milk! If I'm right you want exactly 28 Choclote Doughnuts, 20 Bun Bun Breads, 18 Pieces of Fudged Cakes and a Gallon of Milk right!? The man Waited for Ken responds and with a simple nodded from Ken, the man instantly passed out.
A few seconds later Ken slapped the fallen man waking him up from his wonderful dream. The man looked around and said questionably "Where am I?" Carlos helped the man up with a smile and said "Were in your shop Mr. Baker, you had two consumers that ordered big and you completely passed out, we're sorry."
The man looked at Ken and Carlos and said apologizing "I'm sorry it's my fault I never had customers order that big before it just surprised me, I'll be back with your food in 10 minutes, but while you wait please accept a cup of tea each..!" Carlos and Ken both nodded as the man grabbed two cups, poured tea in them and handed it to young boys, he then walked quickly back behind the counter and started to make the addition food Ken ordered.
After 10 minutes the man came bacK with two giant platters full of pastries and two gallons of milk, the smaller giant platter went to Carlos and the outrageously giant one went to Ken. As soon as the plates hit the tables it was war time, Ken started swallowing whole Donuts and Bun Bun Breads, while Carlos used a mid-sized fork munching on 2-3 pieces of fudge cake at a time, even the poor milk didn't have a chance to pour itself in one of the boys cups, the two men was sucking the milk straight out the gigantic mugs with the upmost ease.
After eating everything on their plates, all you could see was two enormous bloated stomachs an Ken and Carlos with very happy faces laying down on their backs on the ground next to the tables they were sitting at. The bakery man could not believe his eyes, the human captivity was well surpassed today, was these boys stomach made out of black hole particles?
He couldn't help but ask "Umm hmm...Excuse me gentlemen are you two alright? Y'all practically eat enough for a family of 7 in only 20 minutes, I don't think that's really health for you two young bodies or am I wrong?" The bakery man said while cold sweat dripped of his face from the sight of the two young (now balloon like) men, Carlos was the first to move using his palms he was able to push-press himself off his back and into a Indian sitting position, he looked at the baker man with a slightly relaxed smile and without second thoughts said "Thank you mr. baker, that's really was the best bake pastries I ever tasted in my entire life, oh and don't worry about it me and him were both pirates, so we can handle whatever is thrown in our directions..even these outstanding pastries am I right Captain Ken?"
Ken who was now asleep on his back with an air bubble inflating in and out his nose nearly jumped through the roof top from the sudden mention of his name, needless to say he was really surprised. "Y-Yeah...W-What he said!" Ken said surprisedly while trying to balance his gigantic belly on top of his normal legs, Ken finally regained his balance and tried to help Carlos up, so bad once they were both up it was like two bowling balls clashing with each other and Ken won the bouncing belly brawl ( Of course he did eat two times as much as Carlos).
After about 30 minutes Ken and Carlos enlarged tummies were back to normal, it really surprised the bakery man. Carlos was the first one to ask the man for the bill "So how much do I owe you mr. Baker?"
The man walked behind the counter and started typing on the register, after he stopped he looked at Carlos and said "Not that much...just 6,600 beri and your friend order two times that so that'd be around...13,200 beri exact." Carlos had just enough money with him, Ken also had a big bag of gold coins that Brook left in the Captains Quarters for him if he needed it, truth be told Ken didn't even know how much money was in that bag and he didn't care as long as whatever amount WAS in that bag could cover his bill. "Here you go."Ken said while giving the slightly heavy bag to the bakery man, the bakery man looked dumbfounded once he'd open the bag, they were at-lease 100,000 beri of gold in this bag, how could this young pirate give that much money away...key word 'pirate'? Without thinking the baker started speaking his mind "Do you know you have 100,000 beri in that bag of yours? Your sure you don't wanna keep it for your own needs or greed, you are a pirate of course?"
Ken sat back down in his seat and a large grin appeared on his face, he looked back a Carlos then at the baker again and with a huff said "We're pirates of course, but what I love is adventure not money, anyway Carlos spoke so highly of you and also your pastries were so awesome, don't worry about that money though, I actually have another 3 bags with the same heaviness as that one in my Captains Quarters on the ship, if you want you can spend it on advertising your shop more."
The bakery man looked down for a few seconds, soon after tears started to creek down his cheeks again. He was truly happy to be blessed today, his first in a long time consumers happen to be nice pirates, that not only order a big amount of food, but also giving him 100,000 just to spend on his shop, truly he was blessed.
Ken started to walk around again and noticed the man crying and pretty much punched him behind the head dropping the poor man to the ground, Carlos hurried up and stop this lunatic he called his captain, Ken struggled Carlos off him and said "Get off me Carlos, why is he still crying like a baby even after we'd help him so much?! I hate people that cry for "more" things !" Carlos sigh knowing now that Ken didn't understand why this man was really crying, the bakery man simply dried his tears, stood up slowly and before Carlos could explain to his captain the reason why the bakery man cried, he stood off the ground and started to talk "Sorry I wasn't crying for more things believe me, I was actually crying tears of happiness because of what I received from you two, can I ask for your names pleases?"
Ken now just understanding what the bakery man was crying for, broke out crying into an excessively laughter, everybody else that was in the shop was engulfed in awkward silent. After Ken was done laughing, soon after he felt something coming straight towards him with bloodthirsty intentions (using MIGHTY SIGNAL), he knew he couldn't stay inside this small shop anymore knowing that if he'd have to fight here than the bakery shop would be blown to smithereens.
Of course he had to rushed the conversation him and the bakery man was having and with a slight huff he said "I'm sorry for punching you maybe I was out of line there, my name is Ken Gold. Morgan I'm the captain of the...ummm...no name yet pirate crew and this guy here is my vice captain Carlos Norman Hathcock... Umm Uhm well it's time to go we been here too long already, have a nice day Pastries-man."
Ken said trying to rush the conversation even more "Let's go Carlos!" Carlos watched as his captain fiercely strolled out the door, he didn't know what was wrong with his captain now, Carlos walked over towards the bakery man who also was wondering what was wrong with the young lad, Carlos simply touched the man shoulder and finally spoken after he caught the man intention "Don't worry about him, he's naturally weird like that, but other then that I hope to see you again Mr. Baker...used that money Ken gave you to make this little shop into a gigantic company one day! See you around!" Carlos said while turning towards the exit door with a smirk on his face. After the young pirates were going it became silent too silent in the bakery shop, the only sound that was heard was the nearly silent cry of the happiest bakery man in the world.
(Metal Town, Night Time "Shopping District" 11:07 pm)
I know that unhandsome-unlike me bastard Carlos is somewhere around here, even though his shoes are apparently soundless, his tracks are fresh...once I catch him I will beat the lies out of him then turn
em' in DEAD or ALIVE! Kyofu said while running throughout the Metal Town looking for the young gray headed pirate, he jumped on top of one of the houses and from the corner of his eyes he noticed a golden haired boy around the same age as Carlos walking out of a small bakery shop with his hands balled up in a fighting way, immediately Kyofu noticed this boy fierce 'will' and knew that his own bloodthirsty intention towards Carlos drew the boy towards him, Kyofu jumped off a metal house and walked slowly towards Ken he also noticed that this golden haired boy resembles the other person that was mentioned with Carlos in the article, Ken of course didn't make a move and just watched the handsome long haired man approach him quietly.
Once they were in talking distance the first one to speak was Kyofu confidently "Boy I noticed you felt my bloodthirst, so you must be special, I have a question for you do you know Carlos Norman Hathcock? Y'all seem around the same age is he a companion of you're?"
Ken uninterested in what this man was saying simply started to dig in his ear and finally seconds later answered his questions "Yeah I have and eye for that...and Carlos is my Vice Captain why do you wanna know? I felt your bloodthirsty intentions and if you was directing it towards my nakama I won't let you harm him! One more thing I need a Navigator do you know where one is located!?" Ken said out the blue now in his Lion Combat fighting stands, Carlos watched the boy move into his weird lion stands then said proudly "I am Lieutenant Kyofu the second in command of the Navy Base Tycoon, I came to capture Carlos, but now I can also take in his captain too...I also remember my Mission information now Ooohh Yaaa' prepare to die from my handsome Fist! And also my captain is fighting Ryu at our base, he's a pretty decent Navigator, but soon he'll be dead just like you!"
After Kyofu was done talking, from nowhere a bullet recoil was heard, Ken look towards Kyofu who was now holding his bleeding cheek, his nicely shaped face was now grazed by Carlos Flank Gun's bullet, needless to say Kyofu was now PISSED.
Carlos who was hiding around a triangular shaped metal house, was now just walking towards the two men with a wide grin, he looked towards Ken who was still in a fighting stands, Once he walked over towards Ken he finally spoken "I heard the whole story Ken, don't worry about this man he's my problem, you go after our Navigator before Kyofu's captain kill him first!"
Ken was uncertain at first, but he knew he could trust his vice captain and soon turned his whole body into his hybrid Flaming Lion form and with one hard step in Ken was gone from sight. Kyofu was so angry about his face being damaged that he didn't realized that Ken took off running, Suddenly Koyfu whole body started turning into a silver color, he looked like a handsome Metal Cooler with long Blondie hair. (Dragonball Reference gotta love it lol) After Kyofu was done transforming, you could tell that his rage cooled down slightly, he looked around and noticed his target Carlos with his gun drawn aimed at him, Carlos shot at mid range distance without thinking twice, but Kyofu simple walked forward stepping straight into Carlos bullet, a loud metal clanging sound was heard, really unusual to Carlos ears. "What in the hell is that clashing sound, Could his body be stronger then my FLANK SHOT bullets?" Carlos said in his mind, who now changed his gun clip into all black bullets.
A laughter was heard from Kyofu direction "Is that all your popgun can do Carlos, it's just a sound maker hahaha! Now you see why they call me "Titan"!" Said Kyofu overconfidently, while Carlos still watched Kyofu movement slowly, he quick drawn his Flank Gun again and aimed it at Kyofu's chest, he knew Kyofu over confidents wouldn't allow him to dodge Carlos bullets, so without second thoughts he let out a round of 9 bullet "EXPLOSIVE STUCK SHOT!" After the smoke from the gunpowder cleared Kyofu was laughing even more "What the hell Carlos? You pitiful weakling, those bullets felt like feathers their no way in hell you can defeat my handsomeness bas...'KABOOOOOOM'!" from nowhere an gigantic explosion went off and Kyofu whole body was engulfed in a raging flame, you could of hear Kyofu panting, clearly it damaged him. After a few seconds Kyofu regained his composure, rage still on his face and slight scratch marks on his body.
He looked at Carlos who gun was still aimed at him, with a slight smirk he said "So...*Pant...your not as weak as I though bastard, but now you pissed me off, watch carefully as I show you my true power!" Kyofu stumped his feet into the ground breaking it up into large piece of rocks, then he kicked the heavy rocks straight towards Carlos at a high speed, Carlos was able to blow up a few, he even dodged most of others, but one slipped though his defense and hit him straight in the chest, Kyofu at full speed jumped up in the air and screamed out "TITAN KICKBALL" kicking him straight in the back with double titanium legs, clearly Carlos was in pain spiting out blood, he couldn't feel his lower body anymore. Kyofu who now though it was over started laughing more with his head tilted upwards and his hands thrown in the air, from nowhere a kick flew over towards Kyofu's head, Kyofu simply watched as Carlos sneak-attack kick dealt no damage at all to Kyofu Titanium body, Carlos fell over holding his hurt feet. "This is the full power of the Ti Ti Fruit! I'm much stronger then you, I'm much faster then you, I'm MUCH handsomer then you, I am a Titanium-man the strongest of the strong!"
Carlos was reloading his chamber with one unique bullet while Kyofu was still talking shit to Carlos uncaring ears, it was his Special Quake Shot he put in his gun, the bullet that was pretty much a double edged sword and also damaged him badly in battle before. Carlos knew that he would need it to succeed in putting Kyofu out, he jumped swifty landing right on Kyofu titanium head, Kyofu tried to hit him off with wild swings, but that back fired, Kyofu's fist were way too heavy for his unbalanced body and without noticing he knocked his own self towards the ground, Carlos took the opportunity and jumped off Kyofu's head right in to the air, He aimed his gun downwards at point blank ranged and yelled out "SPECIAL QUAKE SHOT!" Carlos body shot straight in the air, the smoke around him looked like he was trapped in a upwards hurricane, on the other hands Kyofu had the worser effect, his body started to vibrate so hard that the ground beneath him was getting crushed easily like sandpaper, his titanium skin started to peel off and you could of hear his painful screams as his body looked like it was going to self destruct.
Carlos stared to fall from the sky at a extreme pace, he was able to wake himself up since he already experience the Special Quake Shot before, he relaxed his body and started to dive towards the ground, once he was at landing distance he pulled out his sniper rifle Tick Tock and screamed out "HIDDEN ZONE!" while shooting at himself dragging his body in a different space, after a few seconds he simply walked over towards Kyofu body and jumped out his space zone...Kyofu body finally stop vibrating and his body was laying inside a gigantic crater full of gassy smoke, needless to say he was out cold...or that what's Carlos though but then Kyofu's body started to move and his legs and arms started to twitch, not long after that Kyofu was able to get on his feet even though his legs were unsteady, Carlos stared in amazement at Kyofu's spirit being able to survive his Special Quake Shot and getting up after that. Kyofu finally caught his breath and said "Shit...I...Let...*Pant...my...guard...down...*Pant,*Pant,*Pant...I refuse to lose I have to fight for my captain!"
Kyofu turned his entire body back titanium, Carlos looked at him with a smirk and said "I guess the real fight is just starting! Lets get this over with Kyofu my captain is waiting!"
(The battle between Carlos and Kyofu is at it's finally stage, but who will win both fighting for their respected Captains? What will happen when Ken meets Hook-Line? And who is this mysterious Ryu? Stay to next time! ^.^)
