CHAPTER START~!

A fortified SUV moved down silently in the night as a group of people inside were quietly waiting for their objective to get closer. A blonde young man spoke as he sat between a large muscular man and a red haired woman who looked disinterested, "No one kills anyone unless they pull the trigger first."

The smallest member spoke, a younger woman, with annoyance, "Seriously? I get him," She pointed to the man sitting next to the blonde, "Or you, but me and Iggy aren't exactly at your level on-"

"Iggy and I…" The silent man said as Horo glared at him, feeling her gaze he spoke. "Speak right, my little sister can do proper grammar and she's barely ten."

"I swear to go~d, I'll cut your head off, you stoned faced bastard…" the smaller woman glared as the man didn't bother to say anything. But the girl took a moment to breathe as she placed her arms behind her head, "I'm not an animal, I know who isn't an enemy and who is." The blonde man took a better look of the smaller girl, she is a woman who would easily be seen as a cool beauty despite her short height of 4 '11". She had pale, fair skin that contrasted against her beautiful, long, black, slick-back hair with a single bang falling in front of her forehead, her black eyes, and finally, her black, lipstick-covered lips. She wore a tan-colored jacket on top of a tight, black, sleeveless blouse that hugged her perky C-cup breasts. She wore a short, black skirt with white patterns on it that hugged her surprisingly wide hips and tight ass and was held up by a tan and red lined belt that had a gold buckle that spelled her name. To finish, she wore black, thigh-high stockings that squeezed her luscious thighs, black, wedge shoes, and a metal, black choker.

The red haired girl spoke softly, "It's not our job to question Master…it's our job to carry his orders out." The fiery red haired woman is a beautiful woman with extremely long, red hair that was styled in two, long drills with black and white-striped ribbons tying the top of her twin hair drills. She had beautiful amber eyes that almost seemed to glow the color gold while she wore a black beret-style hat. She wore a tight, cotton sweater that had a cutout on the front, allowing a healthy amount of cleavage to be seen with a tight, white, pencil skirt that hugged her hips.

On top of the sweater and skirt, she wore a tight, designer coat that allowed her to show off her firm, D-cup breasts. Under her skirt, she wore a pair of black pantyhose that hugged her legs and finished with a knee-high, black boot on one leg and a regular length boot on her other foot.

"Ahhh! I know that!" The smaller girl whined before she could say more, her eyes turning cold as did the others.

The red haired girl adjusted her jacket sleeves as you can hear a quiet *Click~* as her hair seemed to float demonically.

The silent man of the team slowly stood up showing his incredible height and massive build as he stood up, which the act alone could make the hardest criminals have second thoughts on facing him.

The shortest member of the team stood up as she cracked her neck, losing her previous annoyed look for one of excitement as she thought how to handle these assholes they will soon be facing.

The last one, their leader, spoke as he opened the back door of their vehicle where they all left the car to see a warehouse. "No one lives alive save 'her'…" the blonde reminded them all as they nod seriously. The blonde watched as the tallest man pulled out a giant metal shield from the top of the car, almost the same height as he is.

Small stature female grumbled as she loaded a new magazine into an assault rifle and watched the red haired girl pull her sleeves to her elbows to show two cigarette lighters on her wrists which were jury rig for some strange reason.

The blonde knew this was going to be a usual day for what they do, walking down to the entrance the blonde whispered, "Earl…" Soon the shutter was now moving up to show the crew the amount of people inside, many of them had tattoos, scars, angry looks staring at the intruders. "We're looking for a girl named Mikasa… you bring her out." He ordered as the people laughed or snicker at his request.

Soon one member walked up to the blonde, "So this is a Fifth King. Naruto!? A little baby to start something?!" He spat into Naruto's face who didn't so much as flinch until the criminal pulled a pistol at his forehand, "You best step boy! Unless you want a fresh hole for me to fuck with!"

The man turn pale when he felt a something touching junk and looked down to see Naruto placing a pistol on his crotch, "Better listen to me, I got one rule for fuckers who break the rules of the Treaty. One warning…" he said before everyone in front of him pulled up their guns at him.

"FUCKING FINALLY!" The tiny member of the blonde's crew shouted in excitement as the rest of them started a shooting frenzy, bullets flying everywhere. "AHAHAHAH~!" The short member laughed demonically as she easily blasted the heads of the criminals. So preoccupied with her fun she didn't notice a man taking away from her side.

BANG!~

"Don't dream of getting past me!" The tallest man of the group shouted blocking the shot when Horo look to see the man defending her. As the man lifted his shield he rushed forward and sliced the gunner in half with raw strength as he looked at the girl he protected. "Horo keep your damn head on right never let your guard down!" He order taking out a Riot Shotgun an blasted a trio of enemies rushing from his blind spot.

Horo huffed as she nodded annoyingly, "I got it! Geez, don't be such a piss ass Demon!" She resumed using her guns before nothing came out, "leads ran dry!" She gaped at the amazing speed it used for the ammo!

"That little bitch ran out of bullets~!"

"FUCK HER UP~!" The surviving members smiled as they opened fire at Horo who didn't flinch, but rushed forward with a craze smile on her face.

"Now I GET TO PLAY WITH THE BIG GUNS~!" Moving her hands to her back, to pull out two large crowbars! "BAM~ WHAM~! BOOM~!" SPLAT~! CRACK~! SPLASH~! Those grotesque sounds were the fact the girl was splitting heads up from her makeshift weapon, or openly breaking arms and her favorite action of all, ripping out vital organs to see the blood spill out like a fountain. "Fuck this is getting me wet~!" Horo giggled darkly as she licked blood off her lips.

The blonde shook his head, before focusing back on shooting more of the criminals. "They're having too much fun…" He sighed, before pressing the comm link on his ear. "Earl, give me an update."

A strong and calm male voice came from his earpiece, ["Your father's men kept the area under lock. And the plans of the building suggest the majority of the crew you're mowing down are at the entrance. So the leader and the girls are in the back of the building possible in the freezer, sir."] The tone was respectful and to the point which made the blonde nod and speak back.

"Got it, get the client and my dad, the faster we get the girl out, the faster we can get some grub." The blonde nodded, before turning off the earpiece. "Alright, people, push forward!" He shouted, before he started taking the first steps, while still shooting.

"Sir!" The red haired woman said, spinning above him as her wrist suddenly blasted high intense pillars of flames from her makeshift lighters, as she turned green from the smell of flesh being cooked, "Ugh… well done… no way to serve that to anyone…" she complained before twisting her to her side to set another woman who was aiming at her leader's direction. "Burn bitch…" she harshly declared as the red haired pyroist did the action with ease.

"Thanks, Ignis." The blonde smirked at the girl.

"…No big deal…" Ignis blushed, scratching her cheek softly before the blonde pointed a pistol at her and took a shot, shocking her as she turn to see a man with a club to bash her head in. "…Thanks." She whispered, losing focus as they easily dealt with the rest and went to the upper level of the building to where the crew looked stun to see a hulking monster of a man standing in the only hallway.

"Tiny birds…" He said as Naruto took a moment to look himself over, he was mostly full of fat but had some muscle clearly meant to be a bouncer or raw muscle in terms of usage of his build. The blonde lifted his hands to keep the rest from moving forward, odd by the blonde choice and now slowly taking off his suit and then shirt which he tossed where Horo grabbed…

"Sniff~"

Was the short stack girl sniffing them? Ignoring that odd moment he spoke to the blonde who was now showing his muscle off with the tattoos around his body that covered some old scars. "Aren't you scared?" He asked as Naruto got into a boxer's stance rushing forward, "Time for me…" the giant of a human started moving a single step back, then seeing that he grasped a rather large hammer the blonde eyes widened. "TIME TO TEACH YOU!"

Naruto merely stomps the ground, the action was so strong that it caused him to fly over the man as he swung and just missed the blonde former spot where he was aiming. As he turned his head to see Naruto was behind him in midair almost like the world slowed down just for him to hear what the blonde would say, "Why would I be scared of a human?"

BANG~!

The rest of the crew watched as Naruto was standing with a smoking magnum pistol as he blew the head off the hulk like it was a water balloon. "Fuck! That was cool!" Horo cheered, ignoring Ignis' look of disgust from her earlier action from smiling at their leader's shirt. "Nice blood splatter."

"Agree," Ignis said as Demon walked to their leader before pointing to a shaking skinny man. "Oh the pedo…" she declared as the crew saw the man looking for a way to run, only able to move to the back room.

"Oh hell no- YOW!" Horo was about to give chase only for Demon to pull on her hair comically making the girl scream out in pain as she turned with tears in her eyes. "The hell you-!?"

BOOM!

Horo paled as she saw the fucker suddenly exploded when trying to open the door to the room. "Huh… well that's fucked up… I would've been blown to bits if I triggered that trap…"

Her only answer was Demon patting her head like a dog who listen to a order, "…Ok you get a pass…" she murmured annoyingly as she and the rest move forward to see their leader open the door, they saw girls barely older than 13 all sitting and huddling together in fear. "Fuck… he kidnap so much under our noses?" Horo whispered in pity.

"Mikasa…" he said as a girl in the corner flinched, "and the rest of you girls are also safe."

"Earl?" The blonde spoke into his earpiece.

["All twenty are accounted for, sir."] Earl answered the blonde. ["Your father just pulled up, need the girls to have new clothing or-?"]

"No, it's fine. Their well-being is top priority above all. We'll make sure these girls are healthy before we send them back to their families."

["Copy that, sir. And good work."]

The blonde and Demon helped the girls walk out to see the entrance was no longer filled with blood or dead bodies, "Yo!" The group of children saw a Chinese man smiling as he walked forward with an elderly German man next to him, "Geez last second much? Had to ask Sawyer to get her buddies to clean this up."

The blonde sighed as he was right about the mistake, "Sorry about that."

"Bah, don't worry. As long as you get the job done, I don't care how you do it." The old Chinese man waved off nonchalantly. Still this is the client you were hired for."

"Sir…your kid." Naruto helped the little girl go to her father, "Payment will be discussed next week. I assume you're going to go home quickly then pay?" He said as the man nod holding his daughter tightly as he was worried during this only time.

"But of course, my daughter's health comes first after all." The German man nodded. "And when negotiations are done when we discuss your payment, I'll wire all the money right then and there in front of you."

"You can wire it whenever you want, just make sure you do." The blonde said as the Chinese man chuckled.

"Oh nonsense, it's only fair that we do that at the negotiations. When it comes to business, trust is my number one policy that must always be upheld in order to have good relationships between our two parties. I'd rather not have you feel as if you were being cheated out of your pay, now do we?" The Chinese man said as the blonde groaned but nodded.

"I suppose not." The blonde sighed.

"Good. I'll let you know when I'm ready to discuss our deal." The Chinese man smiled, before gently escorting the child away. "Come along now. Let's get you home and have us a nice hot meal."

"You have to pay." Ignis declared as the man looked a bit bummed out, "Half price." She says, annoyed by the look on his face.

"I'll take it." The Chinese man smiled brightly.

XXXXXXXXXX

The group all came to a restaurant, it was glorious on the outside, almost a work of art in some high quality cities would have. When they went inside, the quality was just as grand as its exterior. Huge Chinese paintings hung on the walls, and the tables were round and covered with table cloths made of the finest silk. Plates lined up the tables' edges along with the silverware and farther in, were the door that led into the kitchen where the magic happens.

"Alright, please stay back, while I go in there and whip up some grub." Ignis said, immediately walking towards the kitchen. The moment she pushed those doors open, "Hey! We got a big order! Help, unless you want to quit, start making food."

"Yes ma'am!" the chefs in the kitchen shouted. The crew heard the sound of kitchenware clamoring and clanging, some hitting the floor as they did. Given how they have the restaurant to themselves, it didn't get any business today.

"So how's life as a company for justice?" Chang said with a chuckle as he took his shades to show the people he was in a relaxed state.

"You know what they say, 'No rest for the weary'." Naruto answered him. "With a lot of crime going around town, the job's never done."

"You know you're welcome to return back to the Triad. Sure the upper ranks don't like the idea of me letting you with your body fully intact but you're my kid." Offered Chang, about to light up a cigarette before Demon cough and pointed to a nearby sign that held a chibi Ignis that bowed with a plaque that said (No Smoking Allowed, Thankies~ ).

"Thanks, old man, but I'm gonna have to take a hard pass on that." Naruto waved off, before offing the man some deep fried shrimp chips,

"Hm, a shame." Chang frowned with slight disappointment. "Still If you need help, call me…or your girlfriend~!" He teased softly.

One of Naruto's eyes twitched ever so slightly, "Geez, old man, you're still joking about that?"

Chang chuckled as he looked at the blonde, "Fine I'll let it slide, however I need a favor from you." He said with his casual tone still present but you can see in his eyes this was a little more serious. "I heard Miss Balalaika is doing something tomorrow and she would like me to provide some backup but I got my hands full with another side project, one annoying little prick who thinks selling weapons on my turf is a good idea…"

*Slam!*

Chang raises an eyebrow as he sees Ignis setting a wood tray full of wonton soups and Chinese chili oil, "Work talk is off the table, eat, the appetizers would be next." She said sitting down with the rest of the people. However before she could pass the food she noticed something was off, "Where are the rest?"

Demon spoke before getting his soup bowl into his hands, "Earl had a job for his boss, and the others are watching out for the young mistress." He reminded the woman who nodded and placed additional bowls of soup for herself, Naruto and Chang.

"Thank you little red," Chang chuckled before enjoying the soup slowly, "Heh hard to believe a little girl who's a bit younger than my kid can make something that even the Triad's favorite restaurants can't beat."

"She's got the talent and passion to cook." Naruto shrugged. "She's just that good."

Chang chuckled mirthfully, "So I see."

Just then more food came in, in the form of fried rice, general tso chicken, beef broccoli, chow mein, dim sum, shumai, and of course, egg rolls.

"Seriously, keep Miss Balalaika happy and the favor is easy as pie." He said getting some fried rice and some dumplings onto his plate. "But even if things go south, Dutch is a good leader and your uncanny luck will be enough to handle anything."

"The young man is capable of many things, Chang." Demon said using a pair of metal chopsticks to grab an egg roll to devour calmly.

The man glared at the hulking man who continued to eat, "Still, we will make sure that the job will be nothing more than a usual delivery."

"That would be much appreciated," Naruto nodded as he grabbed a few pieces of beef broccoli to put in a small bowl of fried rice he had already gotten.

XXXXXXXXXX

In a fancy hotel room, the blonde sighed softly as he saw Ignis wearing her usual casual wear, a simple black nightdress and her hair done in an upwards ponytail. She turned to see his body, a soft blush came on her face as she never get used to her leader's body.

It was like his whole body was built for a fight, it was tone and lithe but the muscle definition was there…and she felt it before without any effort too. His still wet hair from the shower he just likely took made her heart beat faster as she knew he loves using her usual brand of luxury bath supplies and it had to be favorite "Crème brûlée". His blue eyes would stare through your soul to tell who you really are, his subtle scars that faded around his body.

Naruto looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "Something wrong?"

Ignis's blush became more apparent, looking away embarrassed, "N-No, it's nothing…" She said trying to control her breathing to keep it in control. "…Master?" She said as the blonde turned to her with a disapproving look, "I will always call you that, even if you hate it."

He sighed walking to a large bed and lay on it, before speaking again, "Ignis, we've been over this-"

"And you'll always tell me, but I don't care." Ignis shook her head, as she approached the bed to lay down next to him. "You own me… and I will never be able to repay you for saving me. My body, my heart, my soul, my fire… is yours only." She leans forward about to kiss him only for the teen to stop her gently. "…Too soon?" She said as the blonde flipped her over as the woman looked stunned to see his smile.

"No… I want to take control." He said as the blonde's lips tenderly touched her neck as the red haired girl sighed heavily,

"Master…" Ignis's breath hitched, feeling his tongue slowly licking her neck oh so slowly. The cold touch of his tongue and the heat of his breath made it even more unbearable. "Wait… not- Ah~" she gasped softly as his left hand started to knead her breast.

The blonde knew from years of experience, possibly way too young to start considering how he got his first time, that each girl is different. Ignis was a very sensitive lover of his, her sharp tongue or usual droll tone only hid her passion and submission for the blonde.

His fingers gentle cupped her nicely shaped breasts sink into his fingers, despite not being bigger than most of the women he's close to. Her breasts fit perfectly into his hands, as if they were made specifically for him. "My my, is my little fire starter such a sensitive little minx?"

She glared at him cutely, "I'm not a fire- ah~ not fair~!" She whined loudly as she felt two fingertips pinch her harden nipple, tweaking them gentle not at all hurting her, which only made her growing lust and excitement unbearably lengthen out. "Naruto…"

"Shush… I'm ordering you to let me touch you…" he said, not at all angry or annoyed just trying to enjoy her body, kissing her neck with her lips once more… soon leaving soft butterfly kisses up and done.

Soon he wanted more, he nipped on her neck, "This might sting…" he whispered as he bare his teeth and lightly bit her neck, slowly the girl's eyes became half lidded.

As the teeth slowly gather more power and went deep on her skin, the girl's legs went stiff…

When she felt pain, Ignis grit her teeth… soon moaned hotly…

When blood was in Naruto's mouth he relax his jaw, he smiled at the mark he gave her… licking the wound as the girl panted at the experience.

"Master~" She whined as if he just did something naughty or lewd in front of prudish people. "What will the others say if someone sees?"

"Tell what you always do…" he leaned to her ear as he whispered, "I own you… remember?"

She nodded, unable to notice her lovers hand was moving between her legs and underneath her dress. "Master… please I'm yours-" She started only to stop when she felt something… something amazing. "Y-Yes, Master… ah~!" Ignis's voice hitched again as she felt his two fingers , gently pinching and tugging the nipple to get a reaction out of her. "Master… ahhhh~ oooh Master~!"

Naruto chuckled softly as he enjoy his fingers being tightly embraced by his lover's sweet love hole, "Damn despite your love of fire…" he said pulling them out as the sensual lights of the room where now dimming, due to the timer for the room to make the people sleep easier, where the dimming lights show his lover with fingers drenched with from her juices. "You're drenched~"

"No~! Please do more… give me more~" Ignis begged her Master, as she can't bear the thought of being teased like this any longer.

"More what, Ignis?" Naruto teased the girl with a husky breath. "I want you to be specific."

"I… ahhh… I want…"

"Hm? You want what?" Naruto smirked wider at her dilemma. "Come on now, don't be shy~"

"I want… I want your fingers! Please fuck me with your fingers~!" Ignis begged. "I want them… I want to cum from your fingers, please, just give it to me…"

"Good girl…" he said teasingly, making his fingers 'walk' on her stomach trailing down more. "Remember that you, her, and the others are people I love. And I will make sure you know…" he said as his fingers slowly slips into the woman's burning snatch as it grip, massage and embrace his fingers that enter her. "Yes, think of it as my cock… practice for the future…" he whispered to her head as the girl's eyes nearly rolled upwards, losing to her lust.

"Ahhhhhhhh~" Ignis moaned lewdly, her body curling up to Naruto's fingers that were slowly working on her maidenhood.

"Feeling good~?"

"Y-Yes~" Ignis trembled from the sensation, hearing the soft squelching noises Naruto's fingers were making inside of her. Naruto captured Ignis's lips with passion, as he continued playing with her sensitive folds. He then increased the pace, making her moan louder, making sure she was feeling good throughout the whole thing.

"Mmmh!" The girl couldn't keep her defenses anymore; the kiss was too much pleasure for her to fight against, as Ignis started bucking her hips to his movements. Her juices coated his hands as he continued fingering her pussy. He would spread his fingers occasionally, stretching out her entrance even further, as well as hooking his fingers up in search of any sweet spots.

"That's it, Ignis… good girl… good girl…" Naruto praised the red haired woman. "Make your pussy tighter~"

"Master…massher…" she crudely, and in a cute way, dumbly tried to respond to him, her brain fried from her delay orgasm that caused the pleasure to be far too much than her usual ones.

For a good and thorough five minutes, Naruto continued pumping her pussy with his fingers, all the while Ignis was squirming and writhing with pleasure, her core becoming tighter and tighter as she was about to lose it.

"Massher… Massher, ahhhh, I'm… Im'ma… Im'ma… ahhhhhh~!" Ignis slurred, her body curled closer to his, and her head resting on his shoulder as she kept her eyes shut. "Fuuuuk… I'm cumming… Im'ma cumming… I'mcummingI'mcummingI'mcummingI'mcummingI'mcumming~!"

"Do it…" Those words made the woman scream out as she arched her back pushing her pelvis outwards as a strong squirt arched across the room as she bit her lower lip hard as she felt her eyes nearly roll to the back of her head. Slumping back and breathing heavily she only could pant in exhaustion as she saw Naruto cuddling next to her.

"Mmh, you always look so beautiful when you're at your climax…" he said, placing the girl on his chest who seemed to breathe better. "Good night my sweet Ignis…" he kissed her forehead as the woman smiled gently into her master's embrace. It was a delivery job…what's the worst that can happen?

XXXXXXXXXX

*BAM!*

"Alright Mister Japanese… I'll ask you one more time." Naruto watched as his current leader of the group was a large dark skin man, he had a shaven head with no hair in sight, a strong build that shouted 'mess with me and you're dead', he wears a moss green flak-jacket over a tank top, military fatigues, U.S. military jungle boots, and is wearing a pair of circular sunglasses.

Dutch, the owner of the Black Lagoon Company, a friend of his dad (when his father wasn't pissing Dutch off) and close friend of a female ally he knows as well. His company is know to ship goods weather be legal or as Dutch would say the type where he as to charge them for the risk involved to ship it,

Revy, is a beautiful woman with burgundy hair that she tied into a ponytail that went to her upper back and amber eyes. She seemed to know she was a beautiful woman as her outfit showed off her body very well. She has slightly-tanned skin and a modest height with an impressive bust and a tribal tattoo on her upper right arm. She wore a tight, crop-top tank top that hugged her large, perky E-cup breasts and showed off her tight, fit stomach. She also wore a pair of super short, denim shorts that seemed to be cut more into denim panties than shorts.

She doesn't button up the shorts, allowing the briefest glances at her white, lace panties to any brave enough to get close while they are held up by her belt. These shorts squeezed her firm, heart-shaped ass and also seemed to hug her clothed pussy while showing off her long legs and thick, firm, luscious thighs. To finish, she wore a pair of black, fingerless gloves and black, military boots without socks.

The two were currently pointing their handguns at a rather average looking Asian man that Naruto kinda felt bad for… mostly when Dutch just knocked him down with a powerful hook to the cheek.

"The packet you got from the Asahi Industry Headquarters, in Tokyo, the one you're in charge of until you hand over the chief in Borneo," Dutch paused, letting his free hand to pull a small disk, "This is it, right?"

The man nursed his bleeding nose as he tried to get back on his feet, slightly impressing the blonde man for having the nerve to get on their eye level when most would lay there crying or begging for help. "Yeah… but what I want to know is-"

"We're all done with you now." Dutch cut him off his face unchanging as did Revy who Naruto saw her twitching trigger finger wanting to kill the man in front of her. "You've given us what we wanted." He said with a tone of finality as the man gasped horrified but still tried to look strong.

"Dutch…" Revy finally spoke since they took over the ship, "This is pain in the ass. I saw we kneecap this pussy." She was annoyed having to do this confirmation just for them to double check their 'cargo'. "There'll be no secrets after that."

The blonde gave a soft chucked, "Nice Rev," he said as he saw the girl twitch as his words, "At least you're least making an effort to not add your kill score higher at every given opportunity. But no need…"

The woman looked at Naruto with one eye as Dutch gave a single nod to agree with the blonde, "Yeah, this one disk is more than enough for the compensation."

Hearing his words made the woman put down her weapon in disgust, "You call that compensation?" She was exasperated at the idea of such an unfair deal, even if Naruto didn't get his share it was still a crappy deal for her.

[*Zrrt* Hey Dutch! Are you through with it yet?"] A voice in a rather bad mic contacted Dutch which made Revy and Naruto suddenly look more on guard. ["There's something heading straight for us in Subic Bay. It's probably a a patrol boat from the Philippine Navy.``]

Hearing the idea of organizing a military near them made the woman of the team click her teeth in hate, moving to see the other secured hostages still sitting down and their hands over their heads made Dutch nod to himself on the possible ways for them to go. "Don't panic, Benny Boy. It's all been taken care of." He said making sure everyone was accounted for to make no mistake that someone was a hidden cop or something. "Start the engines."

With that Naruto moved to the railing as he sat watching Dutch speak in a projecting voice that made the other scared people flinch as if he was going to abuse them, "Now, listen up, gentlemen!" He began as the engine noise started to grow louder as the blonde nodded from the corner of his eye that their ship was here, "We're gonna disappear, and then you'll all be free to go." He promised as the other victims of the attack seem to breathe easier from the announcement. "But I'm warning you!" He added with a stern tone to remind them he wasn't going to let them try something, "The deal is off if anyone tries coming after us!" He took a step back to let any of the people who could see over the edge, to see his ship clearly, "What you see here is a torpedo launcher. If you want to float home on what's left on your ship, I highly recommend you stay put for the next half hour. Then when the time allotted has passed you're free to do as you wish."

Despite his warnings and scary demeanor many of the crew sighed in relief and prayed/thanked their gods for letting their aggressors be merciful enough to only hurt them with a single punch to one person.

"We're going to live…" The Asian man also gave his own exhaled breath of hope that he can-

Aiming her gun on the man lazily, Revy raised an eyebrow and narrowed her eyes at him, "Why are you so relaxed? You're gonna tag along with us~" despite her voice sounding like she was singing, her facial expression was anything but casual or hopeful. "Dumbass…" She added hating how the man thought he was going to be safe.

"You're joking…" he said with a weak smile slowly breaking apart when the woman didn't look a bit apologetic. "You're joking, right?" He said almost begging for her words to be something from a hallucination from his sudden injury. He only shut up when she placed the barrel of her gun to his left cheek, slowly realizing she was getting more piss at his words.

"Now shut up and walk…" She said with the last pieces of her patience as the man did what she said getting on the boat as they rode off into the sea.

"YOU'RE JOKING RIGHT~?!"

XXXXXXXXXX

Naruto walked up to Dutch as he finished his conversation, "Oh miss Balalaika ok?" He said as the man nodded as he spoke, "The trade is on schedule so we got nothing else to do than wait for her." The man said as Naruto smiled at that. "So what's with the noise over there?" The dark skin man said as the blonde ally gave an awkward face as the man turned to him as he felt a headache coming. "What'd she do now?" Obviously referring to the only female Naruto sighed…

It was a quick and simple response…

Hostage…

No sooner than that word left his mouth Dutch after making sure the auto-pilot was on, he rushed down with a rare tone of annoyance, "Revy, what in the hell were you going to do with this hostage now that you brought him along with us?" Despite his clear rage and reasonable even tone, Dutch was fuming at the dumbass choice she made! "Come on!" He added when she didn't respond but looked just as peeved off as him.

"You don't get it, do you?" She questioned as the maroon haired woman sighed in annoyance, "You just don't get it, do ya, Dutch?" She repeatedly pointed her index finger at him as if to point out the importance of her reasoning, "Think about it! We're getting only twenty grand for this job." Before adding her middle finger to show the low number… and to likely flick off Dutch. "Twenty fucking grand! What's wrong trying to get a little bonus for a little ransom?"

"Man, you're really simple minded like Earl said." A blonde man with glasses, likely in his early thirties wearing a Hawaiian shirt said with a cigarette on his lips as he leaned back to say to Revy who looked like she was going to murder him with her sight alone.

"You want me to shoot you?!" Revy growled threateningly. "Cause I can do it right now."

"Nah, I'm good." The blonde man casually said as if the threat didn't faze… even though he knew she would in an instant if she could.

"Alright…" Naruto clapped his hands like a school teacher regaining control of his class, "Rev…?' He sighed out as the woman looked at him, making the Asian man who was nearby stunned to see her anger seem to vanish…well at least a big chunk of it. "Are you going to negotiate with Japan? Cause last time you did, me and Demon had to literally get Dad and Ballet to help dig holes on my weekend off…" he said as the woman seemed to flinch at that reminder.

"Uh… well…" Revy scratched the back of her head.

"Oh, did you have their number?" He said as Benny snorted at that blow, Revy barely knew had to look porn with the internet, much less find a decent pizza joint that robbed them blind. "And a bank account? Cause you're not using mine anymore until you start to act like an adult and plan-"

"FUCKING ALRIGHT THEN~! We'll kill his ass and throw him overboard!" Naruto and the Asian man paled as the former tackled the latter man as Revy started shooting in his general direction thankfully missing each shot!

"Rev! What the hell?!" Dutch shouted in anger.

"OH GOD STOP IT!" The Asian man screamed, clutching behind Naruto like a shield who also gulped in fear from the shots almost getting him… near his dick… he liked his tool thank you very much!

She was about to shoot up again, missing Naruto who lost his previous expression and lunged at her with amazing speed using his middle knuckle to hit her wrist to drop the gun and twirled her around to use his left arm to strangle her arm and forced the gun arm to pull up to the air, while kicking her left leg to forced to lower herself to unable to fight back.

"Goddammit Rev! The hell is your problem?!" Naruto shouted at her. "Are you seriously trying to get all of us stranded?!"

"Alright! Alright! I get it-!" She gasped as Naruto tightened his hold on her neck.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!" He repeated the word as if telling a dog not to enter near a spot in the house, "Get what?"

The easily angered woman growled, "I get your point, no shooting when we're miles away from port…" She wasn't let go as she sighed, "And when friends are possible going to get shot by a ricochet."

"…Close enough." Naruto mutters as he lets her go to let the woman cough slightly, "Dutch, you wanna smoke break?" He offered to the man as he nodded.

"Yeah… Fuckin' A…" Dutch groaned heavily, "Hey," He turned to the Asian, who was muttering about being still alive, "C'mon a smoke will do good for ya."

XXXXX

"Shitty brand as ever…" Dutch said as Naruto passed him a weird looking cigarette, which he took.

"Hey this is a classic, you know how much I had to get a fucking box?" He said pulling one for the Asian male. "Here…"

"T-Thanks…" The Asian man said.

Both Dutch and the Asian man lit their cigarettes as the kidnap man noticed Naruto just staring at the box, "You're not smoking?" He said odded out by the young man not smoking his own.

"Nah, promise my dad that I respect my parents' wish for me not to do anything wrong with my body." He said as the recently scared man seemed more odded out by the reasoning… and wording by what the blonde said.

"Why carry a pack?" He asked yet again, as Naruto shrugged.

"A lot of my friends smoke, at least from me they know its not poison, the brand I use is good, and don't have to pay me." He surmised his only reason he carries them on his person. "Ask Dutch…" They turn to see the man exhaling a large cloud of smoke.

"Whoooooooooooooooo… this the good shit right here…" Dutch breathed in and blew smoke out.

"…What's going to happen to me?" The man said as Naruto just stared at the sunset.

Dutch shrug, "I guess, we'll make a deal with your company. Least I can do with my idiot shipmate." He said as Naruto looked at the dark skin man before resuming his sights on the sea.

"Great, that's going to be a big thing on my record…" The oriental male said taking a hit of the cigarette with Naruto's brand… before oddly feeling a little less stress even from cigarette one puff shouldn't be that good~

"Hey we got our priorities." Dutch explained as if trying to keep the man from doing something stupid like swimming on his own or taking his own life. Revy might have fucked up on bringing him on board with his permission but he couldn't deny if they can get more money might as well keep him in good shape until them, and if not well he got some karma points for the future to cash out. "Getting the disk to our client comes first, it's just how it goes."

"A client? Ahh that makes more sense now…" he said knowing that the disk was something odd for some pirates to steal, then again besides his Hollywood movie collection back at his apartment he hasn't really known much about actual pirates than in the old age of certain movies or the ones in actual reality. For all he knows they could be hackers of the sea or something.

"We're just delivery boys, nothing more than that kid." He said as the Asian man would like to argue they were possibly closer in age than he thinks, but considering he and the blondes were the only kind people to talk to, he rather stand on his good side by just nodding. "Sometimes we break the rules to put food on the table, or other times to keep some people who don't have anything to do with us safe." He said looking at Naruto at the last bit of what he said. "Simply business…"

"You got a name?" Naruto asked the Asian man who was lost in thought and with naruto amazing smokes.

"Okajima, Okajima Rokuro…" He said naturally before looking at the two males, "Rokuro is my-"

"First name I know." Dutch nodded to the blonde, "He might not look it, but he's your countryman." Shocking Rokuro which Naruto chuckled but looked at the pocket that Dutch had and worried about the fact that the Asian man- Rokuro is possibly clueless on what his company is doing.

XXXXXXXXXX

It was night time as the crew reached their destination, "About time…" Naruto yawned, stretching out to loosen up whatever knots were tied up. "I really wish you would upgrade Dutch, you know I can give you the cash…"

"Nah, I owe ya too much to take any money. 'Sides, you can just take my tab for the drinks." Dutch offered as the blonde chuckled, but that meant he was going to do that too. "Are you going to join us, Rock?" He turned to see Rokuro sitting on the boat front with a sullen look.

"Rock?"

"He means you…" The other blonde said with a chuckle, "Better to drink your annoyances away than sulk. Take it from me." He grinned as the group walked to the streets.

Rokuro, or Rock, watched as they walk down a street that reminds him of a less safer version of Shinjuku at night, it was filled with bars, clubs, prostitutes, homeless, and other ill repute beings than they walked by, almost noticing some of the women giggling and waving at Naruto who gave them a small wave back.

Soon entering a building called The 'YELLOW FLAG' the group walked towards the bar, as Naruto spoke to the bartender, "I'll pick up their tab," with that out of the way Naruto watched his crew walk in, Rock following them after. "Order anything but the man's own home brew, someone died last week from it." He chuckled as Rock gawked at the sight of everyone patron putting a gun on the table.

"Is this the so-called Bar at the end of the world you see in Westerns?" He asked as Dutch poured him a small amount of whiskey,

"Good analogy, this place was founded by the Southern Vietnamese soldiers who survived the war. They started to take in fugitive soldiers, too, and before we knew it the place went to hell quickly." He said as Rock flinched when a bar fight between two men got deadly, "Mercenaries, hookers, junkers, hitmen, pimps, irredeemable criminals, every one of them. Don't like it?" He asked as Rock flinched again when another fight started to happen.

"…I really miss the Japanese pubs where I went to… unguarded smiles were something I like…" he admitted, now missing that little comfort of human kindness even if it was fake. "I usually try to avoid confrontations…"

"Heh, I can see it on your face. Normally we got a better place with less aggressive people," He said, eyeing Naruto who suddenly lifted his drink to consume it, "But a certain asshole doesn't want us to visit." He smiled as Naruto did still 'drinking' his booze. "Going to make a call, Benny, Naruto." He said as the two blondes looked at the Dutch who walked away. "Try not to let Rock die."

Naruto smiled as he looked at Revy who was about to pour her drink as Naruto did for her, "Hey thanks for not killing the poor guy," he said as the woman snorted at the blonde's words.

"Don't be, only reason I didn't is that Big sis will tan my hide if lost her money." She said taking the shot with an easy smile. "'Sides, you can do me…a favor after this is done."

"Oh? And what does this favor entail?" Naruto raised an eyebrow, although his tone was a bit flirty.

"The usual, maybe add one of your girls to join," she replied with a smirk as Naruto chuckled at her suggestion, before taking his bottle and going to the other blonde man and Rock. "Shut up Benny, you're too young to reminisce like that. Alright time for some real fun~!" She said, pouring herself and Benny a full glass of spiced Rum, overhearing their conversation.

She sat next to Rock lifting her leg over her other as she quickly drank her glass as she sat with a smirk, "If you asked me beer is the same as piss, that will never get you drunk mister Japanese. Real men take rum~" She said, her head nudging towards Naruto who finished glass quickly with a slightly red face as she continued, "But if they don't even have the balls to keep up with a woman, then I am not going to try and force you."

As she said this she didn't see Rock loosening up his tie as he looked annoyed at her constant attempts to make him feel like he was a wimp especially in…

"Though I might want to put a little dress on you with some pretty ribbons and take you out for a night of dancing~" She teased/mock the hostage she forced to come with them.

SLAM~!

"AS A RULE, I HATE CHUGGING DRINKS LIKE SOME TEENANGER!" Rock shouted as the other patrons ignore due to knowing he was some normal man who was possibly forced to be here. "But I'll make an exception…" He said with an edge to his tone unable to let some crazy gun wielding bitch insult him like this any longer! Both Benny and Revy were stunned to see Rock not only easily drank his Rum but faster than the woman could and slammed his glass on the bar with a superior look on his face.

Naruto chuckled watching Rock use his arm to wipe any leftover liquid on his face due to his fast chugging, "Well damn he can give Z a run for her money." He noted before grabbing a soda can from the bar's counter and pop it up.

"I was forced to drink in college, we're forced to drink in company social events." He turns to Revy with reddened cheeks and a glare at her despite knowing she can easily kill him without any second thought! "Never underestimate a Japanese businessman!"

The female gunslinger glared back at the man for calling her out on her comments, no way she was going to let some normal cushy wannabe Asian bitch boy make her look weak! "Little sunnuva…" she started as her rage grew into an intense wildfire when she saw his wide grin as if to tell her 'Well? You gonna do something about it?'

NORMALLY… she would love to kick his teeth in, but that wouldn't work as he would just say something like she couldn't match in drinking so she had to cheat to win. There was only one way to get back her pride and make her words a reality…

Standing up and taking a step towards Rock with the man also moving in towards Revy they stared at each other, while Naruto hand went to his hip ready to take action in case Revy did her usual thing… "Hey bartender!" Revy started as Naruto hand drop to his side and smirked,

Both Revy and Rock turn to the man making a drinks as they went close with their faces clear with rage and anger for their next choice of action… "Bring us all the Rum you got right now!" They order as Naruto chuckled at the two somehow bonding, even if they would to deny it.

However as the blonde was going to join he felt something was off and stood up, "Toilet…" he said to Benny lightly smacking his shoulder as he left, but it was their usual manner of signing to keep an eye on Revy and their target.

Walking to the back of the bar where the bathroom and pay phone were at, he saw Dutch weather be the lighting or his tone, but it was not good news, especially if it came from the woman Naruto knew was on the line. "No shit… that's definitely not good news. Go on…" He said as Naruto moved to his front to wave at him, Dutch gave a quick nod, slightly turning the phone so he could hear the news too.

["Something wasn't right about Asahi Industries' response, so I left out some bait and a Chinese rat went right for it."] a mature and sultry tone made Naruto fingers curl remember the woman who the voice belonged to. ["In fact, I'm talking to him right now."] To make her claims true the two males heard some painful groans from the phone.

"Five shots?" Naruto said as the woman giggled, "Seven?" No response meant that he was right, "Yeesh keep treating Chinese rats like that and I think dad wouldn't like to talk to you face to face anymore Ballet."

["Hmhmhmhm, oh come on now. No need to sound so upset."]

"As cute as your routine is, What's their move Balalaika?" Dutch said as Naruto dropped his casual look for a serious one as they needed to get back on track.

["One moment… What's your owner's name?" Loud and Clear.] Naruto once again felt his spine tingle when he heard her real voice slip out, a commanding one where even the most powerful men will adhere to no matter any circumstances.

["Sh-Shingian! Shingian The Wan Taikei, he sent his usual troops to kill them! He sent mercenaries to kill them at Roanapur!"] Naruto almost felt pity for the man thinking if he was able to tell them this much he could live…poor deluded fucker…

["Did you get all that?"] Balalaika asked.

"Yep. Loud and clear." Dutch sighed, "Fuck, what a mess…"

["Tell me the number and affiliation of those soldiers now. Speak up and fast,"]

["Guys from Extra Order! A mercenary contacting Agency! I don't how many they are I swear!"]

["EO company scouts experience war junkies."] The woman told them the general idea of their opponents, ["Compared to Naruto's crew, think of them as those pathetic men who, what was that term again? CARP? PARK?… LARP?"] She question herself before exhaling, obviously not going to think more on the subject, ["Try not to die…"]. Though her words were cold, she didn't want her usual allies to be killed from a simple mistake on her part from not realizing these idiot Japanese for not keeping their side of the deal, and they call themselves descendants of the Samurai… what a fucking joke…

"Got it…" Dutch passed the phone to Naruto as he went to secure Rock and his crew.

["Oh and Naruto?] The woman's voice said as loud gunshots were overheard.

"Yes?"

["Do forgive me for making your favor from your father increasingly annoying, it was one thing for Revy to drag a civilian into this but now you have to face off with soldiers pretending to be cowboys. I hope you can forgive my little errors in judgment."] She said as you can almost hear a genuine sense of affection from her voice, compared to her colder tone or casual demeanor.

"Oh Ballet, I'd never get mad at you." Naruto smiled. "Besides, it's all part of the job anyways,"

["Well I still like to give you a 'bonus' of sorts after this is done, same thing as always or would you like something else~?"] The blonde male chuckled as he spoke softly to the phone.

"Now… you keep teasing me I might have to make sure I come back without washing the blood off my hands…" He said hearing a sensual sigh from the woman no doubt turned on by the thought, "We'll meet up later, Ballet." He said before remembering something. "Oh how's… subject doing?"

["Don't worry, it's perfectly safe."]

"Thanks, Zoya and the others can't do their shift this week due to problems, so asking your men to do this was a godsend." The blonde said before hearing gunshots, "Crap that's the idiots, Love ya Bal." He said before hitting the phone back to the receiver and cutting their conversation short.

With another sigh, he walks back into the bar.

Naruto came out to see the whole bar was shot up to hell with several of the patrons on the floor dead, "Fuck, I should never talk dirty to Ballet when we're on a job someone always dies!" He said as he saw Revy outside the door, "I leave you guys alone for five minutes, and you guys can't keep things fucking civil?! Is that so hard to ask?!"

"Wasn't me I swear, Dutch said-" Revy tried to explain as the last she caused trouble her ass is still red from the beating Naruto gave her, evident on the scared look on her face trying her best to quickly tell him what really happened.

"I know, EO dudes." Naruto said pulling Revy's gun from her behind her short shorts, and pulled the trigger on two Extra Order mercs rushing towards them. When they saw Benny reaching them with a car, they nodded, "Get in!" He noticed Rock was with Dutch, "He's still here!?" He asked, wondering why they are still keeping him around.

"He asked!" The dark skin leader basically said as he tossed Rock in the back with Revy jumping into the back with Naruto comically entering slowly as Dutch slammed the front door to the passenger side loudly.

"GO!" Dutch shouted, before Benny slammed hard on the full throttle, causing the tires to screech before taking off.

As time went by Naruto and the rest were silent until the lone female of the group spoke, "So Dutch…" Revy started with a tone that meant bad news to give to him, "Bao was so pissed off that it looked like he could steam liquid. He said 'Unless we pay him back for the bar, he's going to weld our assholes shut.'" She said as Naruto sighed as Dutch gave him a look of apology.

"Covering it…" He said getting a PDA out as he sent the email he needed to let his friend in America move some things around to do Bao this favor, there's a reason why Bao gives Naruto his private selection of booze and it was because the blonde never misses a payment for screw ups.

"That's scary." Dutch obviously was lying about that, more worried for the EO bastards blatantly shooting up the place, that meant they weren't anywhere near close to living on Roanapur if they took potshots at the blonde. So he can't scare them away by revealing the blonde's true identity to them.

Ignoring Rock mumbling Naruto spoke to Dutch, "Should I get the others to come?" He asked, as Dutch waved him off, "You sure?"

"As much as backup is a godsend, we can't risk it. Despite the crew of yours, being one of the most feared people, the fact that the EO is not afraid of your safety shows we're going to just buy time until the exchange is ready. I doubt they gonna send a fleet after us." He said knowing he had the advantage of speed and with the boat the crew couldn't handle many more people unless it was going to be a giant ship raid.

"Alright, still, I'll send a message to the old man to round up any EO members on the island. Hearing their mistakes will make him want to get even for their dumb mistake on breaking the major rule on Roanapur…" He said as both Dutch and Revy smirked at that moment, heads were going to roll for going against the Demon of Roanapur.

XXXXX

It's been a few hours since they made it to their ship, he had a few plates of scramble eggs and corned beef hash and some Texas toast that Ignis made for the crew before Rock was kidnapped . "Here eat up," he said passing Rock and Dutch plates of the food he made, "I'm not an Ignis or my maid, but this should be good to eat."

"Thanks, will need it." Dutch said letting Naruto take over the ship as he began to eat his food. "The hell? This is damn good kid," he said as his fork shoveled more food down his mouth.

"C'mon, this is pig slop compared to Ignis's cooking." Naruto waved off.

"Who's Ignis?" Rock whispered as he tried to keep his head calm, despite the fact he felt he was going insane from the last… holy hell it was only a day since he was kidnapped! It felt like days!

"One of Naruto's crew members."

"Dutch…" Naruto warned that despite the kindness he didn't appreciate anyone talking about her without the girl's own consent.

"My bad, but she is a damn fine cook, when it comes to making Chinese."

"Granted, I'll give you that." Naruto shrugged, "The plan?"

Finishing his plate the sunglasses wearing man leaned towards Naruto, "Maintain the speed we're going with, we should reach Palawan Port by daybreak. We'll meet Balalaika there." He looked at Rock next, "Rock… Benny is getting in touch with your employer, get down there and beg if you need to, because once the EO punks come around we ain't going to get much chance to get you anywhere safer." Seeing Rock's hopeful expression made the man continue, making sure to temper his expectations, "If the situation isn't going to be good, then after the exchange we're going to leave you in Malaysia. Sorry."

Rock lost some of his hope, remembering the shit he had to deal with now, but this was a rather comforting way to remind me of a possible future if he had to take. "It's a crappy place with lowlifes and bandits, but I'm sure Naruto will have a mug or two to look after you until you get a way back home. So just relax and let him take care of you. Ok?"

Rock hearing the last piece seemed to trigger him, that's it?! "You drag me here and just let me die?! You could just leave me somewhere more safe as an apology for-!"

"Don't push your luck punk…." Revy warned as she came from the bottom of the ship, "It's bad enough I let Naruto here try to help you when we could just leave you fully intact, but now you're saying his help is too good for ya? First you came crying to us, then you want to use us like a damn taxi?"

Rock slumped his shoulders… he sobered up enough to remember she had a gun and could resume to kill him for his stupid behavior once more. He gasped when the pistol she had was square in his forehead.

"Easy Rev…" Dutch warned the trigger happy woman.

"No, I'll do him a fucking favor and end his misery since he can't seem to be happy no matter what we do?" Revy said as she was going to pull the trigger, Naruto stepped in front of her.

"Remember the rules, Revy… not civilians and certainly not the people you brought here." He said his eyes darken as Revy glared at him but stuffed her pistol back in its hostel. "Rock… get in there before I break something of yours." He turned to the man, paling at the blonde's look in his eyes, no doubt himself pissed for Rock's rant earlier.

XXXXX

The blonde watched as Rock spent the last ten minutes throwing up when he heard that his boss, not only is going to let the mercs kill than save him, that his company was involved with helping make nuclear weapons for a country that needed an age. The now dead man was told his boss apologized by making sure he was bumped up to the assistant manager, paid for his funeral and aid his parents for the trouble.

"I was barely an afterthought to the fucker!" Rock shouted after heaving up his emotional bile.

"Is that really enough to make you throw up?" Revy questions as the blonde temp looked at her but didn't bother to appeal to her sympathy since she had none.

"Of course it is! I'm not even an asterisk for fuck's sake!" Rock exclaimed, tears running down his face, he took the abusing and constant hours to make something of himself, and this is what he got? 'Oh sorry just die and we'll pay for the rest?' The burned employee could only slam his fist at the stupidity of the… ITS STILL FUCKING DAY SINCE HE WAS KIDNAPPED?!

["Revy you up there?"] Benny asked as he looked into his monitor back inside the ship, ["I'm picking up something and it's coming fast at us. Definitely not a boat though. It's kicking so much speed it's three hours and five mins away from us. You see anything?"]

"They're already here, huh?" Revy muttered, as she loaded up her trusty twin pistols, inserting the magazines into the guns themselves. Looking around she noticed a faint small shadow on the horizon they were sailing away from, the engine, the propeller and shape made the woman click her teeth in anger. "It's a Gunship, minimal altitude!"

["Wait, are you sure?!"] Benny asked incredulously for confirmation.

She didn't say anything as the aircraft flew over them, shaking the boat from the force it made the computer expert knew Revy was right!

"Naruto catch! You too idiot!" Revy said, passing them two metal assault rifles as the blonde undid the safety and pointed at the EO mercs!

"A gun!? I don't want it! Don't make me hold this!" Rock begged as he saw Revy slamming an extremely large magazine into a giant rifle that the other two males were holding on to.

"Fine! Guess you can use it as a security blanket or whatever." Revy said, pulling a side piece to load the next bullet in, her head tilted as she spoke, "Benny says he's coming to flank us on your side!" She said to Naruto who got into position and started to take shots at the air vehicle as started to shoot at them as well.

"Kami, you have to deal with this every day?!" Rock shouted.

"Mostly mondays for me!" Naruto shouted back as he placed the gun on his back noticing the bullets seem to bounce off the machine, "High caliber or armor piercing rounds only! My gun didn't do crap! Revy, use the anti tank rifle!"

"Got it!" Revy confirmed, switching weapons from her normal rifle into a large anti-material rifle that Naruto suggested she use, despite calculating the shots, each one of them missed. "That damn thing turns too fast like a fucking stripper!"

"Get it! shoot it down!" Rock begged as Revy missed each shot he quickly hid under something to cover him.

"Shut the fuck up! You're fucking up my concentration!" Revy snapped at the former salaryman, before shouting when noticing where he was. "You do know that's a torpedo you're hiding under right?

"WHAT?!" Rock gawked, scrambling away from said weapon.

Revy resumed fire only to worry for Rock when his usual complaints didn't resume, only to turn to see something that made her rage turning into a full blaze on inferno! "You motherfucker!" She cried as the gunslinger saw the Asian man putting a life jacket on himself.

"I've had it with you jerks! I'm getting the hell out of here!" He said quickly donning the life preserver… only for Revy to drop kick him and started to beat his face in! "YOU LIMP DICK SONOFABITCH!"

"Revy, the hell are you doing?!" Naruto shouted.

"This fucker's about to bail out, that's what!"

"DAMMIT! WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK THEY CAN DO AND SAY ANYTHING WHAT TO ME!" He yelled out on the top of his lungs, grabbing Revy's assault rifle and tossing it into the sky and hoping it hit the gunship! "Can anyone tell me why I have to suffer like this?!"

"ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE?!" Revy roared.

"YOU'RE THE ONE THAT FUCKING INSANE!" Rock shouted back.

"Alright the next fucker who yells than fight right now, I'll fucking will turn you guys inside out, ASS FIRST!" Naruto said as both Revy and Rock saw the blonde eyes were serious.

"But he threw away that gun it was-/Hey I was trying to get my anger out and-" they said only to see Naruto look up at the sky worrying them before they did the same thing and look odd at the sight. "Rev, Rock, get in the ship…" he said as he lost the gunship and knew something was up.

"What? The hell's going on?" Revy got out.

"Do it now!" Naruto ordered them, as the three enter their ship as the blonde looked at Dutch, "Where the hell is that asshole at?"

"I saw him back off five thousand meters and is tailing us from there," Benny explained, smoking quietly wondering what the merc was planning.

"Dammit!" Dutch said, realizing something as he, and the crew who followed him went back to the steering room of the ship and saw some trees coming toward them. "The channel…" he gritted his teeth at the smart move.

"Not good, we get closer and we can't do anything but be an easy target." Naruto realized.

"Wait, what are you talking about?" Rock asked, confused.

Dutch pointed to a nearby folded map as he explained to Rock and Revy as they looked for where they were, "The path we're heading to Balaoan is filled with rocks and mangroves. So our friends in the airship must've realized that and forced us to be here."

"So the further we go… the less we get to work with space right?" Rock said his worried features show obviously on his face.

"Then let's stop talking and get this damn boat outta here!" Revy shouted as Dutch nodded curtly.

"Don't gotta tell me twice." He said doing what the woman wanted as he moved the boat… before re correcting his action and went back to the channel to avoid gunfire from the gunship. "…" the man hung his head at this obvious mistake when he should've done a better turn than a complete 180 to the trap. "…Better not say I suck at this, but I guess I can't redeem myself now, right?" He said to Revy who was oddly quiet which meant the failure was so bad she only pity him…which was worse than being yelled at.

"I didn't say anything," Revy deadpanned as Dutch resumed.

"I had no other option, I had to evade to the right." He defended his reasons for doing this.

"I know…" Revy said as Benny, Naruto and Rock comically sweatdrop, this was a lot awkward to see for Revy.

XXXXX

"Damn…" Naruto said as the crew reached a waterfall, completely blocking any hope of escaping. "Dead end."

"Dammit!" Rock shouted with his arms punching the wall from the messed up luck they keep having on their side.

"Well shit… we're fucked…" Revy said dryly.

"We have no choice but to turn around." Dutch announced as the more experienced in this world nod, they knew the risk and had to do it, worst case they die pretty slow, best case they can barely survive. "If we do that and he kills us, that cocky bastard sure got us."

"We're running straight into them?! Are you nuts?!" Rock gawked.

"Rock listen, in this world we either live free or die captured." The blonde explained before chuckling, "didn't think my own death would be one of those types."

"Types?" The 'Normal' member said with a confused look.

"Wannabe vets who like to play the cowboy role of being a little hero of their story or their sick fantasies."

"Wait a second!" Rock shouted leaning to Dutch, desperation clear in his tone, "You're saying we got no choice but to die for that guys sick pleasure?!"

Dutch didn't appreciate Rock losing his shot, but he will give him a freebie for that, "Alright, why don't you calm down, Rock?" "I know! Let's call the local police! That's gotta be better than-"

Wham!

"Oh damn you pushed him to hit you…" Naruto winced at the heavy fist that the dark skin man used on Rock with an uppercut, sending the man up in the air and slamming into the floor hard!

And that freebie was used up, so Dutch had no choice but to teach Rock some tough love, "You're not helping. Like I said, calm down for now. Those who panic die in our biz, that's why we're one of the more experienced people here, even Ben who just joined for less than two years." Rock groaned as he tried to regain his barings, "If you wanna survive, you need to keep your head straight."

After finishing her enjoyment of watching the Asian get his ass whooped, Revy walked up to Dutch, "We could wait for them out and make our escape for them to refuel?"

"Not a good idea, for other people maybe." Naruto started before using his index finger to twirl in the air a bit, "These guys from EO, they do the job first before risking any loss payment."

"How's the ship?" Revy question, maybe they can take a few shots and risk an evasion?

Dutch looked at the ship, "Better than I thought but it's more of a problem with these two." He said looking at the torpedoes on the deck, "If that bullet that easily made holes on the deck so much as scratch those? We're all flying to the moon."

"And this is why we shouldn't have kept them, dumbass!" Revy scolded her boss as Dutch mumbled.

"I thought I ended up using them for something," He responded as the crew were now talking about possibly tossing them for extra speed than power…all the while Rock took the time to think on the subject…

"Not like we can actually use them…" Rock muttered, before he realized they were giving him stares. "Dutch, listen to me!"

"You better go back to sleep, you only get one love tap, the next will knock you out." He warned the man, not willingly to lose money for supplies he bought and listen to a crazy man.

"I figure something out now… given the time I had to think about it," Rock said, wiping off blood from his chin from his recent injury. "Just hear me out and if it still sounds crazy, then you can pistol whip for all I care."

"Ok, if you break my concentration again, I'll let Revy do the honors." Before leaning in with a frown that said 'Don't piss me off now!', "It ain't going to be pretty…"

The smirk on Rock's face just made Dutch intrigued on his so-called plans, "I say we go face to face with these assholes," he bluntly said ignoring Revy's sudden chuckle for his 'brilliant plan'.

"Are you retarded?" Dutch said just plain astonished at this suggestion. "How can we have a shootout? All we have is an anti-tank rifle, they have missiles on their side."

Revy had a comical worried look on her face, remembering she saw something when they went over them the first time, "Uh, hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm pretty sure that chopper has infrared homing missiles, actually."

Dutch groaned at the realization that even if they could evade the gunfire, and that there was a low chance of coming out unscathed, those homing missiles were the most dangerous weapons that thing had. "We don't come close to that."

"No we do~" Rock smirked, making Dutch turn to Revy.

"The hell have been giving the poor man to drink?" He asked Revy, who was complaining don't ask her for his sudden mood.

Rock continued undeterred from the others being weirded out by him, "If you think about this is just like a big game of chicken," he explained as the others now were interested in his words. "This boat's armaments and speed, that sunken ship we passed… I'm pretty sure we have everything we need."

No one said anything possible, all thinking what the Asian man was suggesting, but none were idiotic to ask… but Dutch was the only one who was willing to ask what they were thinking at that moment, "What the hell do you have in mind, anyway?"

"Why don't we fly him to the moon like you guys said?" Rock chuckled darkly as he Gah to tell them their one way plan to pull this off.

"… I'm telling you Rock it's impossible." Dutch said after listening to the plan and took the moment to consider it. "There's no way we can do that."

"Hold up. He may have something." Benny said after doing his own thinking, "In theory the ship is designed to hydroplane, about full speed I say…" using the distance between his finger and thumb, around two or three inches at most, "we about this much in water."

"You can't be serious…" Revy said incredulously.

"You got any better ideas?" Naruto said looking at the anti-tank rifle, "Pretty sure that glass is pretty thick, even if you got the gunner we still have to worry about the pilot and we don't get the pilot, the gunner will just blast us with missles. Rock's plan has a way to take down both and get us home without problem… I think." Naruto admitted the plan was insane, but he did crazy jobs with less than optimal luck and resources.

"The plan won't work unless they are stupid enough to get in our faces." Dutch reminded them as Rock shrugged, before lighting a cigarette for Rock for at least making a plan…crazy as it was.

"Trust me, it's gonna work." Rock assured them, "You said it before, this guy thinks like a cowboy. He is having too much fun because he has the advantage, then a game of chicken where he thinks he's all safe will make him come after us hard."

"Heh…we sure did managed to pick ourselves one crazy ass son of a bitch…you have to be completely insane to do that idea…" Dutch smirked as he tighten his hood on the steering wheel, his excitement was telling him to fuck off logic. "But the idea's exciting, and what's the point of life if you can't have excitement? Let's do this thing!"

Soon Naruto, Revy and Rock were on the top side as Dutch made their ship go full speed as they saw the chopper waiting for them, "Alright let's make this asshole want this!" He said as he and Revy took their shots at the man who barely moved, letting the bullets hit their glass as if to discourage them!

"Rock, remember your job?" Dutch reminded the man who made the plan.

"The second they fire their missiles I use the flare to get them away from the boat!" He said, gasping the second he finished his role he saw the first two heavy artillery coming at them. The former business man took his shot off the side as the flare burned up in the sky as the cameras were locked on the missiles.

The missiles then went towards the heat source of the flare diverting away from their actual target.

"Get back inside!" Dutch shouted as the three did what he demanded as they did so making sure to grab anything they could off in case things didn't work out, soon their boat 'hid' behind the sunken ship as the chopper charged forward.

"Pray to your god!" Naruto shouted as he felt his body lifted up as they did it! They flew off the ship! "Dutch!"

"FIRE NUMBER ONE! FIRE NUMBER TWO!" Dutch yelled as he hit the two levers that fired the torpedoes! Naruto watched as Rock stood on his feet. Both barely saw the only torpedo able to slam into the helicopter, due to being fired so fast it didn't explode, but it made them see the smiling face of the man who didn't realize the giant torpedo was slamming into his face.

Rock only smirked victoriously as he stuck his middle finger proudly, "Yeah! You got FUCKED!" He said before the crew shouted when they landed back at the sea!

Dutch groaned as he was pretty sure he was going to feel that for a couple weeks… "Well… feels like my head's still attached… my sunglasses aren't broken. Amen, hallelujah and peanut butter…" he stoically said as that plan work but he really fucked up his boat.

Revy growl as she was upside down her ass in the air and her back on the ground, "fucking hell…we made this time but the next we listen to Rock plan it'll be too soon."

Dutch gave a thumbs up to them before turning his head to the side, "Benny, you ok?"

"Yeah…" the blonde computer wiz said, shaking his head off computer glass and bits off his ponytail, "I'm alive, somehow, but the thing wreck my stuff. We gonna fix this up or…?"

Ignoring him, Dutch looked around for their mastermind friend, "Whoa wait Ben, hold up…" he turned around and said "No Rock standing up, "Where's Rock?"

Revy pointed to a comer where Rock was slumping over a chair, "Over there, dumbass laugh like a maniac before we hit them, they must pass out." She smirked almost considering his visage cute from her glance.

"Look at him, "Dutch said with a rare amused smile on his face, "Almost looks comfortable sprawled out like that."

"Yeah…" Revy said having a smile that was soft and warm, like a parent watching their kid winning their first match in a game. It slightly grew as she saw the serene smile on Rock's face before noticing Naruto was outside looking at the wreckage that Rock did with his stunt, grinning wildly at the sight the business man made.

It was starting for the sun to set as the crew reach their destination, arriving to see a woman standing with a Japanese man who had a limo nearby the crew dock and enter the area as Dutch handed the disk to his client as she smile graciously. She was was there client for the day, Balalaika of the Russian Mafia, Hotel Moscow Branch.

Balalaika stood there in her normal tight, wine-colored suit that showed off her body. She was a taller than average woman standing at 5'10" and one could *feel* the confidence she radiated. She was very easily a beautiful woman with long, blonde hair, blue eyes, and rose-colored lipstick decorating her soft lips. She held a number of scars all over her body but they simply added to her appeal as a beautiful and cool woman. Her suit easily showed off her firm, G-cup breasts that had the tiniest bit of sag from her age and her wide, child-bearing hips. She also wore black stockings that brought focus to her long legs and thick thighs that ended in her black heels. She often could be seen holding a cigarette (like right now as she was enjoying it before seeing her delivery coming in) between her fingers that would, unknowingly, show off her long, well-manicured, pink nails while she had a Russian military coat draped around her shoulder to finish her outfit.

"You know I really admire smart work, Dutch," She said with a smile as she turn to the rest of the crew, her smile not diminishing but her tone became a little jovial as she spoke again, "But I gotta tell you guys, are all looking…a little rough~"

No doubt she was right as the crew's clothing were all either a mess, dirt, small traces of scuff marks and bruises were definitely evident on their bodies. "Well, its not like we're going to some dinner party." Dutch defended his crew for their appearance, especially living to tell the most crazy story to tell her later on. "Its our style." He explained as the woman gave him a curt nod of understanding.

The mature scar woman then turned to the Asian man, her mind wishing she can flay him alive for going behind her back to kill her people that she hired when she kept her promises. "Now Kagayama-san," Balalaika said, earning the man a small annoyance from her usage of the suffix as a way to sound polite. "We from Hotel Moscow have a code of honor."

The man lost his annoyed look to regain his composed one as he raised an eyebrow, "Oh? I thought you were a representative of the Bougainvillea Trade Company."

Balalaika ignored the man as she moved forward, disk in hand as she chuckled, "As you can see, we followed through on our end of the deal…so there shouldn't be any hard feelings." She said with eyes telling him, 'You go back on this…and I'll make sure death is a reward when I'm done with you.'

"Of course not," The man promised, as he had no intention of getting killed when he lost fair and square, "The World is full of things that cannot be helped." Taking the dish back in his company hands he adjusted his suit.

"Now its your turn to follow through on your end of the bargain." Balalaika reminded him as the man nod kindly. "We'll go over the details at the hotel." She order as the man once again nod, about to head into his own car to do one last thing.

"Very well, then, thanks for the good work on this, Okajima." Kagayama said to Rokuro respectfully for his survival and no doubt keeping his company secrets well hidden. "Now, come along, let's go." He said prepared to send the man home to resume work and make sure to keep his word to give him that promotion, god knows the company owes him that much for this annoying thing on their part.

However Rokuro didn't move from his spot as his former manager looked at him worried about his mindset from the recent day that has transpired, however the business man only walk up his fist balled up as he spoke calmly, much more than he thought despite the anger welling up inside his soul, "Hey boss," He started out as Naruto smirked wondering where Rokuro would do. "Don't you remember?" He started as Kagayama looked at the employee with a bored look on his face.

"Well you should," He started glaring at the man who threw him to death just for being dragged by a crazy bitch who wanted more money than she was going to get, his life was less than the information they couldn't afford to let escape, "I'm already dead. You said it, remember?" He reminded the man who saw Rokuro's eyes, no more than the meager man in lower management he once saw, but now almost as dangerous as the people who kidnap him. "And by the way, the name is Rock now."

"That so?" Kagayama muttered before looking forward, "Very well…Do as you wish." He said as the man had no real reason to stop Rokuro from leaving and staying in that cesspool. "Let's go, Fujiwara." He ordered the lower level employee who meekly did as he was told to and drove the car away as Naruto couldn't help but laugh.

Rock was like that man not too long ago and now he's more of a man than these business people. He watched as their client Balalaika talked to Rock for a short time and he smiled at the rest. "You guys have a good time." He said as he walked to the Russian woman's limo, "God knows they're going to have a hell of a time with the new guy."

He looked at Rock who despite his outfit being a mess, he looked strangely calm and collected in possible in years, "Good man…" he said to the former white collar worker who chuckled at Naruto's compliment, "If you ever need some hands looking the Akuma's." He advise making Rock look at him oddly, "Just think of me as temp worker once in a while." He explained leaving as the door opened for him to sit next to a beautiful woman. "Ballet~" he sing out as the door closed, "Good to see you love." He said kindly before noticing Revy and from the look on her face could tell him, Rock just entered the employment of the Black Lagoon Company. "Mind getting us to the restaurant Boris?" "Da…" "Thanks," he smiled as he looked at Balalaika while the woman smirked at him.

"…well," She said using her index finger and middle to 'walk' on Naruto's arm as she began, "How was the trip?"

"Not as exciting as you~" He flirt as the woman chuckled, she was going to enjoy this night for sure~

Kagayama entered his home as he got a good reception from his company for his job well done, but something seemed off, no one was greeting him, not even his loyal dog John. "Anyone home?" He asked knowing his kids weren't the type to be out late, save for his oldest daughter but he left that for his wife.

"In here~"

The man sighed as he enter the room and was about to speak…that is until the sight of blood being all over his living room and the smell of burning flesh made him gag, There he saw dark skin man holding a metal crossbow holding it at him, a green haired girl wielding a chainsaw of all things, and last was a tall and composed, woman dresses to both entice as well as conceal. She has pale skin and blonde hair and ice blue eyes that are always shaded by a gray fedora. Most of her outfit was gray, from the coat she typically had draped over her shoulders to the knee length slit skirt. Contrasting that was the deep burgundy button up shirt wrapped tantalizingly in a leather suspender harness and a lighter red tie. A silver chain hung at her waist , likely connected to a wallet on her person as well as a loose black belt.

Completing the outfit were black opera length leather gloves and leather high heeled shoes that went up to her thighs.

"Who are-" Bang! "GAH!" He gripped his leg as the woman shot his kneecap without even finishing, "WHAT THE HELL!?"

"Consider that a small amount of bliss before what we do to you compares to what we did to your family." The woman in the hat smiled darkly, as she loaded more bullets to her revolver. "Now the reason no one is coming or calling the police is because your company made sure to pay off the cops this time."

"What?!" Kagayama shouted as the green haired woman started her weapon as he paled.

"You broke the first rule of Roanapur, Never take on the Demon Lord without suffering the consequences…" The woman said as she snapped her fingers as the green haired girl laughed maniacally as the weapon loudly roared as the man screamed for his life only to be killed without warning!

The woman went outside as she lit a smoke, "Aaaah~" She sighed as the formal dress woman smiled, "Time to get back to America, need to make sure Naruto side business is doing well." She muttered knowing this small company that dared attack her leader would never make that mistake again.

Things were finally going to get interesting once more.
