Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece
Mr.3 and Ms. Goldenweek
In the candle house, Mr.3 sat with his cohorts as they began to plan, "So now, let's put a ground basis for the plan. We first need to understand our targets so they can't catch us by surprise."
The man then pointed at Luffy's and Robin's bounty posters, "The boss as I said earlier wants the girl to be caught alive and delivered to him for some reason, so under no circumstances is she to be harmed, or else we'll be the ones getting it and being killed."
His partner and the two agents working with him nodding their heads. The man added, "The boy on the other hand is fair game, so you can do whatever you want to him." the others nodded their heads once again although the two other agents were gritting their teeth.
The man then said, "Now since that is out of the way, I need you two to tell me how many people know the boss's secret. I mean how many people did the bounty hunters tell you about that were present on Whiskey Peak." The two gulped since they only knew the ones they saw.
The Mr.5 couple began to explain and describe the people they saw while Ms. Goldenweek drew them. When she was finally finished, she presented four sketches of Zoro, Luffy, Robin, and Nami. The agents already knew what Vivi looked like since they saw her from time to time even if she didn't see them.
The man then clasped his hands together as he leaned backward. He then said, "Alright, now I have the perfect plan." He looked as he heard fighting coming from outside, "Concentration is an important thing in a fight, so the bomb that you used will have its effect on Dorry."
The man looked at his subordinates, "Right now, the giant is trying to fight with his other partner, so he's going to be distracted and will slip, so that's why we will take down Dorry first since he's already weakened at this point. After that, we'll take care of Broggy."
He then looked at the picture of Zoro, and said, "We'll also deal with the kids who knew the boss's plans…" he then began to work on something, "…beginning with him."
Everyone looked at him as he said, "I have a strong principal that believes in evasion to defeat their enemies. My plans can take out my enemies without me even moving a finger."
Back with Luffy, the boy sat on Dorry's shoulder as he brought him to where he and Broggy were going to fight. The rubber boy looked at the giant and said, "Don't worry, Mr. giant. I'll make sure that no one interferes with your fight with your friend."
The giant chuckle, "Thank you for that my friend. I don't want my win against Broggy to be a fake one. If I win, it has to be by the hands of the gods and by my skills." Luffy nodded his head agreeing with the giant as he saw the other one coming.
Dorry lifted Luffy and put him on a tree nearby and said, I trust with this my friend."
Broggy yelled, "Dorry, are you ready for defeat? I'm sure I'm burning up to kick into next century."
Dorry then replied, "Not a fat chance, Broggy, but before we fight, I have to tell you something important." The other giant stopped and listened to his friend and competitor, "It appears that there are other people on the island expect us and our human friends. Those people were also trying to interfere with our fight."
The other giant gasped. He then said in anger, "How dare they? Don't they know how important this fight is?" the giant looked at his friend's eyes, "We have to find them, but first we to…" the giant lifted his sword, "…finish this match of ours."
Dorry laughed, "Of course, why did you think I brought this little human with me? it's so he can watch the fight and make sure that no interferes in it." the other giant chuckled.
Broggy nodded his head, "That's a wonderful idea, Dorry. If he's one of my friends' crewmates, then he's going to be of great help to us." The man raised his shield as he yelled, "Now, let's begin with our fight." The giant charged toward Dorry.
Dorry smiled, "Get ready to be defeated. Broggy. I will win this time around in our match."
Back with Zoro, the man was walking around in the forest dragging around a dead dinosaur. The man sighed for the seventh time as he said, "Now, where was that ship again?"
He looked around and saw someone in the distance. He cautiously got closer and smiled once he saw who he was looking at it. the man said, "Oh, Luffy. You kinda freaked out there. I thought there was someone else on this island."
The man didn't receive a reply, so he thought that the boy didn't hear him, so he walked closer up to him and said, "Hey, Luffy, are you alright there? Is something wrong?"
The man was now standing in front of Luffy, but he suddenly felt something was wrong. The man quickly tried to act, but he was already late as he felt himself be trapped inside something.
Back with Usopp and Nami, the boy yelled to Broggy, "Go and beat him, master Broggy."
The giant smiled as he walked away and waved at him with Nami saying, "Are you still going on with this insanity? Come on, let's move and forget about this stupid fight."
The boy jumped around as he looked at the girl with an angry look, "Listen here. Don't you dare call this fight stupid! How many times do I have to tell you that this fight is a fight between honorable warriors?"
The girl shook her head, "Yeah, yeah. Now, let's go back to the ship, so we can find a way to regroup with the others and leave this island. I'm not waiting a year for the log pose to finish settling down."
The girl turned to walk forward as Usopp said, "Wait a minute now. how are planning to navigate the forest? Both of us can't fight the monsters that lurk in there, so we have to wait here."
Nami looked at him and asked, "Aren't you supposed to be a brave warrior of the sea or something?" the girl shook her head confused at the boy' words.
Usopp replied that he had the heart of a brave warrior, but he hoped one day that he can become truly a brave warrior of the sea. The girl rolled her eyes at him as she grabbed him by the scruff of his clothes and begin to drag him away, "Ok then, let's go to the other giant's house where Luffy and his group are sitting at. I hope that he didn't cause too many problems."
They both walked or rather Nami dragged Usopp around, for a small amount of time till they heard the sound of something behind them. Both teens turned around only to be met by a dinosaur.
Usopp then jumped in the air from fright and began to run away in fear, "A DINOSAUR. Somebody please save me." the boy ran so fast the he became a distant dot to the girl who was trying to catch up to him, but she couldn't.
The girl stopped for a moment and began to try to catch her breath. The girl looked around as she tried to hide from the dinosaur who was still following Usopp. She then noticed someone leaning against a tree. The girl approached the figure carefully and smiled when she saw Robin.
"Robin," Nami put a hand on her chest as she greeted the only girl on the crew beside her till recently. The girl walked up to her saying, "Oh, how I am glad to see you, Robin! Can you plea…"
The girl's eyes widened in shock when something began to warp around her body.
Usopp stopped running and looked around him as he said, "Nami, where are you?" the boy began to panic and he quickly ran toward Luffy's place.
Usopp burst into the scene as he yelled, "Guys, big trouble. Nami is gone. She was eaten by something. I think it was a dinosaur that was following both of us." He looked around for a moment before Usopp noticed the absence of Luffy, "Don't tell me that a dinosaur also managed to get Luffy too? I can't believe this. We're going to die. We're…" he was silenced as Robin bloomed a hand on his mouth.
The girl then said in the calmest voice possible, "Usopp, please calm down and take deep breaths."
The boy did as he was told and the girl then began to explain to him what really happened. The boy was angered that someone even tried to interfere with the giant's fight for a moment only to panic again; this time about Nami and her disappearance.
Vivi then said, "What if this was Baroque's Work doing? I mean what if they sent someone else besides the two that you guys met on Whiskey Peak? The explosion that happened here proves that the 5 couple are here on the island, but what if there was someone else pulling the strings."
The boy then returned to the giant's subject causing Robin to blink as he was jumping from one subject to another. The boy was now demanding to know who would dare and interfere with the giant's fight. He looked around him and yelled, "who dareed interfere with their fight?"
A voice replied saying, "If you would stop yelling, you would know who." Everyone turned around to see Mr.5 and Ms. Valentine walking up to them as they threw Galu, Vivi's duck, to the ground.
The girl gasped in shock as she hadn't noticed her duck's disappearance making her feel horrible. The girl yelled at him, "What did Galu do to you? He's just an innocent creature."
The man rubbed the back of his head and said with a sick smile, "You know that's kinda true, but I wanted him to help us by separating you from the girl and the boy who's now with the giants." He smirked little, "Tell me, did you like my surprise?"
Vivi growled, "He's just a duck. How can you be so cruel? You're going to pay for this."
Usopp then clenched his fist, "So you're the one who tried to hurt Dorry the giant and interfere with their fight." The boy looked at him with anger and said, "I'm going to take you down."
The man raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean 'tried'? I'm sure that I heard a huge explosion and that the giant was taken down." He then looked at Robin who was glaring at him.
"So you're the one who were trying to blow up the inside of the giant," she clapped her hands slowly in a mocking manner, "Well, I hope to disappoint you, but your plan has failed."
Mr.5's eyebrow twitched as he tried to maintain a clam façade, "Alright then, but that's no problem given who we're working with. I think you heard of him, princess. Does the name Mr.3 ring any bells?"
The girl's face went white as she heard about the man. He was known to be a real threat given his strong tactics and smart mind, but Robin maintained a clam face.
Ms. Valentine looked at her and said, "You, the one with the black hair. You also have to come with us. So why won't be a good girl and surrender yourself slowly."
Robin lifted an eyebrow as she wanted to ask the woman if she lost her marbles. The girl replied, "Why don't you make me?"
Ms. Valentine smiled as she said, "Well, that would be my pleasure." The woman got ready to use her power as she opened her umbrella.
Mr.5 looked at Vivi, "Give up, princess. Don't expect these kids to save your life."
Robin looked at the blue-haired girl and said, "Princess, please leave and take your duck with you. Usopp and I will take care of those too. I'm sure that they won't take much time to deal with."
Usopp looked at Robin as if she gone insane, but then remembered that those two tried to interfere with the giants' duel so he said, "Yeah, Vivi. Take Galu away with you and we'll deal with this." The boy wasn't sure how he was going to do this, but it was better than allowing him to get the girl on any day of the week.
The princess looked at them as she clenched her fist. She knew that she had to stay and fight with them, but unlike both of them, she had nothing to help her. she nodded her head as Robin crossed her arms causing multiple small arms to form and drag Galu to the princess.
The princess looked at her injured friend and said, "Galu, are you alright? Can you hear me?"
The duck quacked as it stood up slowly in pain. It then ushered Vivi to sit on its back. The princess did this very reluctantly, and the duck quickly sped away.
Ms. Valentine said, "Oh no, you don't. you're not going easily out of this." She lowered her weight and jumped into the air, but felt something form around her body. The woman smirked as she said, "Let's see if your hands can feel the pain of being crushed by 1000 kilos."
Robin's eyes widened, as the woman quickly increased her weight. The girl managed to dissipate her phantom hands, but she can feel the vibrations in them.
Usopp on the other hand looked at his opponent and gulped, "I, Usopp the brave warrior of the sea, will take you." He then used his slingshot and shot a pellet, "Special Attack: explosive Star"
The pellet caused a huge explosion to occur as Usopp puffed his chest and exclaimed, "Do you see that? I took him down with one shot."
Ms. Valentine laughed at him, "Oh, you cocky idiot. Don't you know that his devil fruit is the explosion fruit? In other words, your little attack…" the boy felt something go past him as big explosion occurred behind him which Robin had to dodge given her close position to it, "…was nothing, but a mere annoyance."
Mr.5 came out of the smoke with a mildly surprised look, "You're still alive." He scratched his head and added, "I must have missed you with the smoke blocking my view."
Usopp then did the one thing that he's good at it…
He ran away while screaming at the top of his lungs in fear…
Mr.5 cursed him and ran after him, "Where do you think you're going, you bastard? What happened to all that macho about taking me out with one hit?"
Robin looked at her opponent and said, "Shall we continue?" and with that, the fight carried on.
The two giants were engrossed in their fight as Broggy lifted his axe and swung it at Dorry who blocked the hit with his shield before he used said item to push Broggy away.
The other giant used his sword to try and slash Broggy, but the giant was able to dodge and replied with a swift kick to the abdomen. Dorry smirked as he endured the pain and pushed forward head-butting Broggy, but the other giant pushed him off.
Broggy then said swinging his axe, "This is amazing, Dorrry. You seem to be fired up today. I bet that your human guests must have given some rum." The giant chuckled a little, "or at least, the one that wasn't sabotaged and designed to kill you or hurt you."
The other giant laughed, "You can tell just from my fighting. I'm always excited, Broggy." The giant also swung his sword toward Broggy and the two weapons met each other causing a huge shockwave to envelope the entire area.
The strike was so strong that it even caused the two giants to be blasted back from its strength.
Dorry looked at his friend and said, "This is magnificent, Broggy. But the Elbaf will favor me tonight. I will win this." He then lunged forward swinging his blade against the other giant with a vertical slash, but Broggy used his shield and held him off.
Broggy then pushed Dorry, and swung his axe hitting Dorry in the helmet causing a thundering sound to occur, "I don't what you're talking about old friend, but the way I see it; Elbaf is favoring me in this fight."
Dorry backed away as he shook his head and smiled even wider, "Let's finish this fight, Broggy. We still have the intruders to deal with."
The other giant nodded his head in agreement, "They have to pay for the crime of interfering in our fight. This should not go unpunished, so why won't you go down already?"
Dorry laughed saying, "That won't happen because I want to win this argument that we had for years as much as you want to." The giant swung his blade but Broggy dodged by jumping to the side and smacking Dorry with the shield onto his face.
On the sidelines, Luffy was beyond excited as he saw the giants fight. The boy yelled in absolute happiness, "Come on, Dorry. Go get him. be the strongest warrior out there."
The boy also looked around to make sure that no one was planning to interfere with their fight. He knew that the people who attacked back on Whiskey Peak were here. He mentally wondered if they brought reinforcements, but shook his head; even if they were with someone, he was going to kick their ass for interfering with the giants' fight.
The boy heard some movement in the bushes, but when he checked it out, he found nothing so he went back to watching the fight.
Mr.3 was not in a happy mood right now. when he set the 5 pair to put the barrel that was thrown overboard in the collection of barrels that Dorry took; it was for the sole reason of weakening the giant and making his work easier. it now appears that not only Dorry was affected by the explosion, but he wasn't even scratched by it.
He concluded that the explosion happened even before the giant opened the barrel of rum and drank from it. sure, he can still capture the giant, but that will now take more work and effort.
The man looked at his partner who seemed bored and clam as always. He always wondered how she can stay as clam as she was 24/7, but that was a question for later. The man coughed in his fist, "it would appear that Mr.5 and Ms. Valentine failed to do their part of the job, so I assume that we have now to put more effort into defeating the giants now."
The girl remained calm as she nodded her head. She then looked back at the two that they caught with the man glaring at them from inside the candle ball and the girl probably scared out of her mind. "What are you planning to do with them?"
The man smiled, "I'm glad that you asked. I'm going to make a masterpiece out of them. With my powers, I'll make them into perfect human candles."
The girl looked at him and said, "Hmm, sounds boring. Don't you do anything that isn't candle related?"
The man fell over from shock as he jumped back yelling, "What about you? You're always drawing on that paper book of yours. I don't see you doing anything productive."
The girl looked at him before making a symbol with her paintbrush and Mr.3 flipped over 180 degrees as he said, "Oh, your art is one of the most impressive pieces of artwork that I ever saw."
The girl smirked as she wiped the mark on the man. The man fell forward on the ground with a huge thud as he said, "Please never use that on me again. It's really annoying."
The girl didn't even honor him by showing any emotions, "Don't insult my work then."
The man grumbled as he peaked his head through the bushes and saw one of the children watching the fights with the giants and he withdrew before Luffy can see him. the man went back to his partner and said, "It appears that one of the children is watching the fight between them."
The girl shrugged, "Trap him in a candle as you did with the others."
The man shook his head, "Well, this might be my plan, but I'm not 100% sure if he can't break through them, so for that I may need your help to contain him. here what is going to happen…"
The girl looked at him and groaned, "Do I have to do it?" the man fell over and complained about his lazy partner.
Back with Luffy, the boy was amazed at the giants' strength. Their fight was one of the most awesome things in his entire life. It was truly a fight of honorable and prideful warriors.
The boy looked and then noticed someone lurking around the fighting area, and he was sure that he wasn't one of his friends. The boy used his powers and shot himself toward him using, "Gum-Gum Rocket"
The boy landed in front of him as the man said, "Well, look at that. if it isn't the famous East Blue rookie 'Straw Hat Luffy', I have to say that I'm quite surprised that I saw you here."
The boy put his fists up as he said, "I won't allow you interfering with the giants' fight." The boy then stretched his fist back, "Gum-Gum Pistol" the fist came rocketing forward toward Mr.3 who seemed clam, but he waved his hand and a wall of white material emerged from the ground as Luffy's fist crashed with it shattering it into pieces.
Mr.3 then said, "Well, you know it's rude not to allow someone to introduce themselves. My name is Mr.3 and I'm the user of the Candle-Candle fruit which makes me a candle human."
The boy put both of his fists backward as he yelled, "Gum-Gum Bazooka" the attack came forward, but it only hit another wax wall.
Mr.3 said, "It seems that you're quite in a hurry of yourself. Clam down or you might not notice what might hit you." The boy quickly felt someone behind him and jumped to the side as he noticed paint fell to the side.
He looked only to see a little girl walking from the shadows holding a paintbrush. The boy once again jumped in the air grabbing a tree branch as he said, "What's a small child doing here?"
The girl looked shocked as she said, "I'll have you know that I'm 16 years old, so you can't be that older than me." the girl raised her paintbrush one more time aiming it at Luffy who managed to dodge another symbol.
The boy then asked her, "Are you sure because you sure look like a child?"
The girl felt herself become a little bit annoyed as she said, "Just because I'm a little bit undeveloped doesn't mean I'm a child," she then waved her brush at Luffy, "Color Trap: Yellow"
The boy tried to jump out of the way, but the color hit him in the chest causing him to begin to laugh out of the blue. As he fell to the ground, and hit it with a thud. This, however, caused the paint to be destroyed a little which made him regain control of himself as he avoided a wave of wax from Mr.3.
The man then came forward smiling, "Did you know that Ms. Goldenweek trained so hard in her painting art that now she can force certain emotions with her paint?"
The boy frowned, "This was going to be trickier than I thought."
The boy quickly charged forward to Ms. Goldenweek to take her out of the picture, but Mr.3 put on a wax wall as he said, "Didn't take for a brute, Strawhat? Attacking a little girl! No shame at all."
The scuffle between Luffy and the 3 couple continued for a little while till a sound from the bushes emerged. All three fighters looked and saw the princess on her duck.
The girl looked at the 3 and gasped as she saw Mr.3 who said, "Well if it isn't the princess deciding to join us in this little party of ours." The man then tried to trap her in wax, but Luffy from the start of the fight between them managed to land a hit on him punching him away from Vivi, "Luffy, thank you for saving me."
The boy nodded his head, and turned back to his opponents, "Vivi, go look for Sanji or Zoro? Tell them to come here immediately?" the girl wanted to protest, but seeing that in theory, she wasn't much of a fighter, she nodded her head.
The girl went off as the fight between the 3 continued. The girl wondered where she could find one of the men as she heard a roar behind her. the girl's eyes widened as she saw a dinosaur looking at her like she was its next meal. Galu also saw this and quickly sped away quacking in fear with the hungry reptile on its tail.
While everyone else was fighting for their lives, Sanji was casually strolling through the forest dragging a huge T-rex he hunted behind him. the man kept walking on till he saw something intriguing inside the dense jungle.
It was a house made out of candle of all things. The man shrugged as he walked up to the house and entered it. he looked around and saw that the inside of the house was nothing out of the ordinary.
He walked for a bit and looked around for a little bit more before he heard buzzing coming from somewhere. he looked around till he found a small box with a transponder snail on it. naturally, he shrugged and opened the line, "Hello, this is the shitty restaurant. How can I help you?"
The voice on the other side of the line didn't seem amused as he said, "Shitty restaurant? What are you saying Mr.3? are you making fun of me?"
Sanji raised his eyebrow wondering why called him Mr.3. the man finally remembered what Vivi had told them and assumed the role of Mr.3, "Sorry, sir. I just wanted to joke a little."
The voice replied, "Well, don't. I don't have time for jokes. Did you do as I told you? Did you take out the princess and the pirates that she went along with? Did you finish off the 5 couple for failing to do their mission? Did you manage to get the Ohara girl alive?"
Sanji smiled, "Of course. The 5 couple are already out of the picture. The pirates are all dead, and the Ohara girl is currently in sleeping after I knocked her…" the entire house suddenly shook with a thunderous boom.
The man on the other side of the line asked, "What in the world was that? didn't you say you finished the job? Is that one of the strawhats?"
Sanji shook his head, "No, boss. This isn't one of the strawhats. I bet this is one of the dinosaurs that roam around the forest." The man on the other side of the line hummed a little.
Sanji then looked and saw Vivi enter the house and ushered her to be quiet. The girl nodded as Galu walked inside and Vivi kept it quiet. The voice on the other line then said, "Alright, good work Mr.3 for taking care of the orders that I gave."
Sanji then replied, "Alright, boss man. Do you want something else that I need to care of?"
The voice on the other line grumbled a little, "You acting weird today, Mr.3. remember that you're talking to your boss, and you need to watch your tone." The man waited for a moment saying, "As for anything else, I need you to come back to Alabasta with the Ohara girl. I already gave an enteral compass to the country. See you in a couple of days."
The line then went off as Sanji said, "Well, that went better than I expected it to be." The man looked at Vivi who smiled a little before remembering why she came here.
The girl then began to tell him what happened and Sanji sighed a little as he said, "Man, those people don't know what to do without me."
He walked outside the room and told Vivi, "Come on, let's go save Luffy's butt, and I'll be the princess shining Robin-chwan and Nami-swan." He said as he turned into his noodle dance form.
Vivi only sighed as she walked behind him with Galu walking behind her.
Back with Robin, the girl jumped to the side as she avoided another strike from Ms. Valentine. Defeating the weight weapon was a tricky subject, since the moment she spawned the arms, the woman would increase her weight and smash herself to the ground forcing Robin to cancel her arms so they won't be smashed given that any damage that happens to any phantom limbs of hers, she can feel it.
Ms. Valentine smirked at the girl, "Where is that cocky attitude? I thought that you were going to beat me. don't tell me that you're having a hard time?"
Robin smiled, "Don't worry, I'm still going to beat you…" the girl crossed her arms, "…beginning with this…" the girl formed arms in front of Ms. Valentine's face and said, "Seuis Fleur: Slap"
The arms began to slap the woman senseless as she flailed around. The woman looked at her with an angry look. The woman spat out some saliva, "The boss said that he wanted you alive. He never said anything about you being able to walk or use those hands of yours."
The woman then jumped to the sky and dropped herself down to Robin saying, "10K Guillotine"
Robin quickly scrambled to the side and avoided the hit, but the aftershock caused her to fall and scrap her arms against the ground. The woman quickly jumped back on her feet and made a couple of eyes to make sure that she isn't caught by surprise.
The girl felt that something moving so she made a huge net of arms only for Ms. Valentine to strike the net and weight against it. Robin gritted her teeth as she felt her arms being stretched. She was sure that she was going to feel that tomorrow.
The girl quickly took a deep breath and maneuvered the arm net around Ms. Valentine and smashed her against the ground as she let out a whimper of pain that shot through her arms.
Ms. Valentine wasn't any better as the weight woman was sure that she had now had a concussion due to being smashed head first against the ground.
She looked at Robin who had her arms bruised a little from the fight and said, "Don't tell me that you reached your limit already? I can still go on for days."
Robin replied by forming two arms and began punching the woman in the face and the gut. She then formed another arm and pulled Ms. Valentine's hair before she formed a chain of arms grabbing her face and smashing her face to the ground.
The girl smirked, "Tell me, can you still go on for days? I think I might have shaved a couple of days off your time limit."
Ms. Valentine jumped in the air as she said, "you're going to have it. I'm going to use my most destructive move yet. 100K Dive" The woman expected Robin to use her hands to twist her, but this time she formed an arm from her abdomen and twisted her arm that held her umbrella which she used to navigate where fell.
Once the umbrella was gone the moment, the woman couldn't navigate as another chain of arms formed grabbing her by the face and redirecting how she was falling. The woman finally smashed headfirst into the ground.
Robin grabbed the umbrella that fell beside her and destroyed it in pieces.
She looked at Ms. Valentine that stood wheezing for her breath. The woman snarled at her as she ran toward Robin, but was stopped by dozens of arms forming all over her body.
the black-haired girl walked up to the blonde woman and smirked as she said, "Consider this as punishment for trying to harm my friends." Robin walked away from her toward where the giants were fighting and snapped her fingers.
The girl wouldn't admit it, but she liked the sound of the woman's snapping bones. It was a small retribution for the trouble that they caused for her, Luffy, Vivi, and the girl's country.
She noticed the lack of fighting in the giants' area, so she ran there hoping for the best.
Usopp was afraid for multiple reasons. First, he was inside a man-eating monster-infested forest. The second, he was being followed by a deadly organization. The third, an assassin with explosion power was throwing explosive snot in his direction. And the most important reason, he was scared out of his mind.
The boy ducked behind a tree for the umpteenth time as another blast went off with Mr.5 coming out of the smoke as he said, "Come out, kid. Make this easier for both of us. I promise you that I will make your death as painless as possible."
Usopp although trembling yelled, "I will make you pay for interfering with Master Broggy's fight." He then turned around and shot a pellet against the man which exploded on him only for the man to come out of the smoke unharmed with his arms crossed.
The man said, "I know I shouldn't be telling you this, but if it didn't work the first time, it won't this time around." Mr.5 then brought out a gun from his pocket as he explained, "This gun will end this fight." The man breathed into the gun aiming it at Usopp.
The boy then muttered to himself, "What is he going to do with this gun?" the man then pressed the trigger as a huge explosion enveloped Usopp.
The boy stumbled out of the blast as smoke was exiting from his mouth. He stumbled a bit before remembering his master's fight and steadying himself with Mr.5 talking, "You already knew that my devil fruit makes me an explosion human and that means every single part of me can make explosions even my own breath."
Usopp replied, "Doesn't make a difference since I'm still going to beat you. I'm not walking away from this fight." Usopp then raised his slingshot and shot a pellet, "Special Attack: Smoke Bomb" Smoke filled the area as Mr.5 heard running.
The man snarled in anger as he ran after the bomb reloading more rounds in the gun as he shot them at Usopp who ducked and jumped away.
The boy then turned around and threw something at him. the man grabbed it and it was a bottle of some strange kid of liquid.
The boy smirked as he sent a pellet toward the bottle causing it to explode soaking the man with it. the boy hoped that with the liquid, the gun would be jammed and he won't be able to fire at him anymore.
Usopp turned around and smirked saying, "Try shooting at me now." the man replied by lifting the gun and exploding the tree. The boy turned pale and Mr.5 told him it only counts if the liquid is sticky or if there were actual rounds.
Usopp resumed running since this plan was out of the equation. He ran as fast as he can, hoping that he finds a way to take Mr.5 out.
The boy has then shot an explosive bullet to the back and he was thrown to the ground as he was heavily smoked.
The man approached him and said, "Any last words?" the boy mumbled something and Mr.5 said, "What speak up I can hear you? Don't tell me that you're too afraid now."
The boy mumbled something again as Mr.5 turned him around as Usopp yelled shooting him with his slingshot, "Special Bullet: Pepper Star." The special ammunition struck the man in his nose causing him to begin sneezing uncontrollably.
Usopp then said, "You're going down." He then took out his hammer and began hitting him with it as Mr.5 punched him away causing an explosion and sending the boy flying away.
The man stood up as he continued sneezing, "I'm gonna… Achoo… kill... Achoo… you… Achoo…"
The boy then wiped some blood falling from his mouth as he said, "End of the line." He took out another special pellet, "Special Bullet: Chilli Star" the new pellet hit Mr.5 in the face as the man screamed in pain from the sudden attack.
Usopp then jumped on him and began whacking again with the hammer. The boy jumped away as Mr.5 tried to punch him with another explosion and then Usopp finished him with another special pellet, "Special Bullet: Flaming Star"
The man was now engulfed in flames as he ran around and smashed into a tree. The man finally passed out with Usopp pouring over him some water he had and walked toward where the giants were supposed to be fighting.
He hoped that Luffy managed to beat the other members of the organization. He walked up to the place where he found Robin with Sanji and Vivi just looking at something.
Usopp looked and said, "Oh dear, how did this happen?" the boy looked at the scene in front of him. both of the giants were kneeling with their hands stuck to the ground. In the middle of the open area, there was a giant structure that was like a giant candle stick letting out candle participles freezing the giants.
In the structure, there was a level where Nami and Zoro where stuck and about to be frozen alive or turned into candles.
And to add all to that, Luffy was sitting crossed-legged happily drinking tea with a small girl, while a man was bragging about how he caught 3 great bounties ad how his boss will be happy with him.
Robin shook her head, "the better question is how to beat this."
Sanji then asked, "Better yet, how did this happen to begin with? And who are those two, to begin with? We can't win if we don't know anything about them."
After Luffy sent Vivi away, Mr.3 stood up angry and yelled, "How dare you punch me? you will pay for this strawhat with your life."
The rubber boy mocked him, "Oh please, you can't do anything." The boy ran to quickly punch him but suddenly felt an unexplainable clam go over him.
When he saved Vivi, he completely let his guard down which gave Ms. Goldenweek a chance to ambush him. the boy then sat on the ground with a clam expression as the girl said, "I think the giants finished fighting. Go and deal with them, Mr.3."
The man quickly moved toward the giants who were crouched on the ground panting after the fight they had. The man smiled as the giants have tired themselves off making this much easier for him.
Broggy looked at Dorry, "Now, let's go and find those who tried to sabotage our fight." The giant suddenly felt something crawling all over his body.
He looked down only to see a man walking up to them with two spherical balls with him. the man spoke, "No need to look any further. I was the one who interfered and now you're both going to be my masterpieces after I hand you over to the navy."
Dorry struggled to free himself, but with both his hands and legs stuck, he couldn't do much. He looked at Broggy who was also struggling, "You'll pay for this." He said to Mr.3.
The man smirked as he began working on something huge, "I doubt that. by the end of the day, you'll be handed over to the navy with strawhat." He pointed to Luffy who was drinking tea with Ms. Goldenweek.
Dorry yelled, "What did you do to the little human?"
Mr.3 replied, "Nothing much, but I just tamed him a little bit. He was rowdy so I had him relax."
Once the tower structure was finished, Mr.3 sent the two wax balls to the top and sank them into the wax. From them, Zoro and Nami appeared.
Zoro then yelled, "Who the heck are you? And what do you think you're doing?" he looked and saw Luffy sitting down there and sighed, "I won't even ask what happened to him."
The candle man explained, "Well, as you see, you're both trapped, and in a short amount of time, you'll be nothing, but candle sticks. I'll be killing you because you learned the boss's secret."
Nami then yelled, "No please, I'm too young to die. I haven't even collected many treasures."
Zoro looked at her and frowned, "Is that what are you thinking about right now? did it ever cross your mind that we'll going to die at this moment?" the woman shrugged as Zoro sighed, "I think I should've stayed on the post back in Shells Town." The man tried to wiggle his way out of the wax, even tried to cut his own feet, but nothing worked, so at least he made a decision…
…he took a pose. The man then said, "Well, if I'm going to become a statue. I might as well become one on my terms." Nami could only look at him in disbelief.
Nami then said, "I'm sure the others will save us." She then looked at Luffy and yelled, "Do something, you idiot." When Luffy didn't reply, she moaned in sadness, "We're doomed."
Back with the others, Usopp looked at the situation and smacked a fist into his hand as he said, "Look, I have a plan, but first I need you all to free, Luffy."
Author's notes:
Welcome back to a new chapter of my fanfic. In this chapter, we saw the fight between the giants, Robin vs Ms. Valentine, Usopp vs Mr.5, and Luffy vs Ms. Goldenweek and Mr.3. we also saw Sanji talk with the boss of baroque works, and Mr.3's tower structure. The next chapter will mostly see the end of the 'Small Garden' arc, and perhaps the beginning of the 'Drum Island' arc. Please forgive me for being late with the updates, but I was extremely busy with my exams.
As always please take care of yourselves, put your opinion about the current chapter in the reviews, and tell me about the arc you're most excited for.
And finally, I hope you enjoy reading my work and see you next time with a brand new chapter.
