" Pili-pili ! "

Looking at the two strange spirits that had appeared before her, Ninguja wanted to know.

'' Do you really think you can defeat me with the help of ... what are these things ? "

" Pili-pili ! " Simply said Gemi and Mini, starting to dance. " Lucy-san, what can we do for you ? "

" I need your help to recover my keys and defeat this girl. "

" Pili-pili! No problem. "

Not quite knowing what these two strange creatures were, Miss Halloween pulled shurikens out of his clothes before hurling them at the two spirits. Seeing them, Gemi and Mini let an intense light surround their bodies, before propelling themselves at full speed towards the projectiles. Dodging them without the slightest problem, Gemi ended up hitting Ninguja's stomach with his head, while Mini smashed into his skull.

Faced with this double strike, Miss Halloween was thrown back and her body violently struck a window which exploded into shards.

" Good job, Gemini."

" Pili-pili ! "

" What…? "

Having watched the fight, Mr 6 had shown, for the first time, surprise on his face.

" A devil fruit? No … ! You are one of those people! You are an 'immigrant'. "

" An immigrant ? " Gin wondered, hearing it.

" A moment ! Would he have met other people from different worlds ? "

" Acacia… " Suddenly roared Mr 6, clenching his fists. " You're like that guy, aren't you? You come from another world. "

" Acacia ? " Lucy wondered.

" Sucker bitch. "

Leaving the dwelling, Miss Halloween had lost her scarf and showed the scars on her face as well as her shark teeth.

" How dare you humiliate me? I am the woman who will become the mistress of this world! I refuse to lose to someone like you. "

" I could tell you the same thing. " Lucy retorted. " I refuse to let Crocodile or two people like you take over this world! You are not worthy to rule this country. "

" No matter if we are worthy of it or not! As soon as we have Pluto, people will no longer see us as just humans! Yes, we will become their gods. "

" Grrrr! You are only selfish! By what right do you allow yourself to play with people's lives ? "

" You can say what you want, it will not change anything. " Roared Ninguja. " Even if it is not by us, there will be a day when this world will be dominated. "

Thinking back to a huge blue-skinned dragon, Miss Halloween began to shake again.

" Why … ? Why do you refuse to understand my motivation to want to stay alive? "

" Stay alive ? "

" In this world, there are obstacles that you can never destroy! There are immortal monsters! Beings who are destined to become gods! Faced with Them, what can your stupid captain hope to do? Yeah, the man who destroyed my island… he's a being that even the Navy will never be able to kill, even if they let all their men fight him! It is impossible to find an equivalent for him in this world! Our only chance is to find Pluto and use it to kill him, before he begins to rule the world. "

" Who are you talking about ? " Wanted to know Lucy. " Who is this person who scares you so much ? "

Suddenly stretching her arms out to her sides, she threw a multitude of kunais, whose blades sank into the walls of the houses surrounding the two women. Then, running towards one of the houses, Miss Halloween jumped to land on one of her kunais. Leaping back, she jumped on another kunai before performing another jump. Seeing her do it, Lucy was surprised to see her jump faster and faster, before starting to hover in all directions.

Not knowing where to turn her head, Lucy had the unpleasant surprise to feel Ninguja's body brush against her, while tearing part of her T-shirt with a dagger. Wincing in pain, Lucy put her hand on a gash where blood was beginning to flow.

Continuing to jump, like a bouncing ball, Ninguja amused herself by brushing against the sorceress, while inflicting non-fatal wounds, to appreciate her frightened and sore gaze. Trying to protect their mistress, Gemi and Mini were, themselves, surpassed by the speed of the ninja, who preferred to ignore them to focus exclusively on his prey.

" You understand now ? You can't beat me! You will never be able to beat this being! You may not even know how much he scared me, just by looking me in the eyes. "

Suddenly thinking back to an island with a rock resembling a huge skull, Ninjuga saw himself again, lying on the ground, his body completely bruised, surrounded by corpses of people dressed as ninja. And above her, she could see a huge dragon staring at the people he had just killed, yet not having a single scratch on it.

Trembling with fear and rage, Miss Halloween grabbed Lucy's whip and pointed it at her. Punching her hard, she managed to raise a cloud of dust in which Lucy disappeared.

" LUCY ! "

" The victory has been decided. " Ningaju assured.

" If you stopped playing with your opponents, you could have won a long time ago. " Retorted Mr 6. " If you do not lose this bad habit, you will see that one day it will lose you. "

" Ohhhhhh, you are so boring, Pik. "

Getting ready to bring the whip back towards her, Ninguja was surprised to find that something was blocking him.

" Hum ? "

Seeing the smoke clear, Miss Halloween couldn't help but be surprised to see Lucy, still standing. With her clothes torn, she had many wounds and lacerations on her body, as she breathed with difficulty. With a large whip trace, her arms were positioned in front of her, as she managed to wrap the weapon around her wrists, in order to block it.

" But how … ? "

" Do you dare to say that there are insurmountable obstacles ...? "

Gritting her teeth, Lucy confessed.

" Yes ! It's the truth ! There are people I could never beat, even if I trained for centuries. "

At that moment, Lucy thought back to the silhouette of Acnologia roaring in front of her, making her tremble with fear.

" Yes ! I am weak compared to many people…"

Then suddenly she felt like she felt two people grabbing her hands. To her left, she saw the figure of Natsu, smiling at her, while Luffy held her right hand, while raising his thumb.

" Nevertheless, the situation is totally different when my friends are near me. "

Suddenly, she felt as if she felt a pair of arms wrap around her neck, as black wings enveloped her body, in a protective manner. Smiling again, feeling Raynare's presence behind her back, Lucy declared.

" Yes ! With my friends, I have no reason to be afraid to fight such monsters, because I know they will protect me. "

Staring at Miss Halloween, she cried out.

" I am not like you ! I'm not a woman who likes to torture other people just because she's afraid to fight a man who has defeated her. "

" What did you say ? "

In response, Lucy waved Gemini's key while shouting.

" Let's go, Gemini ! TRANSFORMATION ! "

Immediately, Gemi and Mini touched, before taking the form of a silhouette. Astonished, Miss Halloween and the others saw Lucy appear for a second. However, compared to the original, she was only dressed in underwear.

" AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH ! "

Stopping the fight, Gin and Mr 6 looked at the second Lucy. Yet instead of being excited, they cried out.

'' I didn't think you were so perverse, Lucy. "

" Exhibitionist. "

" Lucy-sama, I would advise you to let Gemini transform into you, when you are better dressed. "

" SHUT UP ! "

" Pili-pili ! " Cried the second Lucy, starting to dance.

" Stop doing that. "

For her part, staring at the second Lucy, Miss Halloween couldn't help but look at her chest, before placing her hands on her own breasts. Noting a very large difference in height, the ninja felt veins appear on her forehead.

" I would never forgive you. "

" That's what I did ? "

At that moment Lucy's vision grew blurry as she dropped to a knee. Using Gemini and Capricorn at the same time was exhausting. She had to win quickly and then let Gemini go.

Mocking her tiredness, Miss Halloween jumped into the air, while roaring.

" Do you think you can defeat anyone with your friends? Don't mock me ! Someone like you has no merit in going to the new world! NINJA TECHNIQUE. "

Suddenly, Lucy saw appear in the sky, a hundred Ninguja who all held kunais in their hands. Yet instead of being scared, Lucy while her arms to the side, imitated by Gemini. Immediately a magic circle formed on the ground.

" Star far and wide that measure and open the heavens… With thy radiance, reveal thy form to me. "

Seeing a blinding light surrounded the two Lucies, Ninguja began to wince, while putting her hand in front of her hands. However, preferring to ignore the danger that was coming, she let herself fall towards Lucy, just like her clones.

" Abandoned! When I would have defeated you and I would seize Pluto, I would have the right to a future. "

Feeling an immense amount of magic appear within her, the real Lucy tried to stay focused. Yet she was in pain inside, trying to harness so much power when she barely felt able to stand.

"I am unable to use the maximum power of this attack ! Nevertheless, I refuse to let her win! I refuse to lose, in the name of Fairy Tail. "

Suddenly a more powerful light invaded the area, and was visible through all of Alubarna.

" That … ? " Wondered Mr 6, seeing many planets appear around them, as if they were in the middle of a galaxy.

" Unbelievable. " Cried Gin, totally unaware of the fact that Lucy could launch such attacks.

" No matter, I would kill you. " Ningaju roared, as her first clones were about to attack Lucy.

" URANOMETRIA ! "

In an instant, all of Ninguja's clones disappeared.

" What … ? "

Getting hit, the clones were completely dominated by the planets that rushed on them, as if they were controlled by Lucy's mind.

" Impossible. "

Suddenly, she saw a dozen planets speeding towards her, while she was unable to avoid them.

" Miss Halloween… my friends are not always there to protect me. " Stated Lucy. " They also rely on me to protect them when they are in trouble! It is this bond that allows me to stop being afraid to fight and to become stronger! Our friendship will never know the slightest obstacle that can destroy it. "

Managing to hear it, Ninguja caught a glimpse of Lucy's luminous body, through the planets that were about to strike her. She was going to lose. Yet, for some strange reason, she wasn't afraid. She was even amazed by Lucy's power.

" A goddess ? "

A moment later, Ninguja's body was severely hit by Lucy's attack and an explosion of light was eventually seen in the sky. Leaving the latter, Ninguja let her body fall to the ground, while being unconscious. At that moment, Gemini disappeared, while Lucy fell to her knees, tired.

Seeing her about to crash into the ground, Gin and Capricorn were surprised, seeing Miss Halloween getting caught by Mr. 6. Staring at his partner's injured body, Mr. 6 began to growl.

" I warned you not to underestimate your opponents, stupid brat. "

Then, finally, he let her fall to the ground, before returning his attention to his two opponents.

" I am surprised at your gesture. " Confessed the goat.

" Don't imagine anything! This kid… I don't care if she gets beat up or if she dies! Nevertheless, we made a promise! We both swore to witness Kaido's death. "

" Kaido ? "

Blocking Mr. 10's ax, Johnny saw cracks appear on his saber, while the Indian in front of him had a lot more muscle than his.

" What's wrong ? I thought you wanted to defeat me to avenge your friend. "

Glancing at Menma's body, who was lying on the ground, her face covered with wounds, Johnny clenched his teeth in anger.

" I could never forgive you! You dared to attack a child… are you not ashamed ? "

" Shame ? Why should I be ashamed? What I wanted was to allow this angel to go to heaven, killing her after purifying it! That's all. "

" Purified? Do you dare to claim to purify a child by raping her? "

" Yes ! Because the purification would have transformed him into a real angel, ready to go to the next world. "

" It's you who will go to the afterlife. " Johnny roared. " But you will not go to paradise. "

" Shut up, cockroach. "

Striking with his ax, Mr 10 slammed into the ground as Johnny jumped aside to dodge being cut in half. Then, aiming at Mr 10's leg, he tried to slice it. Foreseeing this gesture, Mr 10 jumped in time to avoid the attack. Then, both of his feet crushed Johnny's sword, jamming the weapon.

" What … ? "

Taking advantage of Johnny's stillness, Mr 10 tried again to cut him off. Having no other choice, the pirate jumped back, while dropping his weapon. Finding himself disarmed, he then saw Mr 10 rushing towards him. Taking fright, Johnny tried to run away. Nevertheless, gripping the back of his jacket, the Indian pulled him towards him, while raising his ax.

" DIE ! "

" NOOOOOOOO."

But as Mr. 10 was about to kill him, the big man made a strange noise, before letting go of Johnny. Taking the opportunity to flee, the pirate then turned to see Mr 10 placing his hands on his back, while a big wound had appeared there.

Behind him, Yosaku was standing, while holding his sword in his hands.

" This blow is for what your partner did to me. "

" Motherfucker ! "

Spinning around, Mr 10 sent one of his fists hit Yosaku's ribs causing him to fall to the ground. Feeling one of his ribs crack, the man curled up into a ball. Preparing to kill him, Mr 10 turned in time and used his ax to parry a punch from Johnny.

Smiling sadistically the man then lifted his foot to strike the man's abdomen, causing him to fall to the ground.

" You are really a duo of dummies! What did you think you were doing against me? "

At that moment, seeming to remember something, the man smiled.

"Wait a minute… aren't you that strange bounty hunter duo from East-Blue ! The two men who dare to claim to be Roronoa Zoro's disciples ? "

Laughing, the man declared.

" I myself was a bounty hunter and I wanted to fight against Roronoa for a long time to show that I was stronger than him! Nonetheless, if these disciples are that weak, I bet he is not as powerful as the others are saying! In the end, he's just a second-rate swordsman! HAHAHAHA! "

Hearing this, anger flooded the duo's body.

" SHUT UP ! "

" Aniki would beat you in an instant. "

" Hum ? " The man wondered when he saw the duo get up.

" Yes, we are weak…" Johnny confessed.

" And we very often shame Aniki. " Yosaku continued.

" Nevertheless, we forbid anyone to call him weak. "

" Aniki is an honest, powerful and honorable swordsman! He is by no means a filthy being like you. "

Johnny moved into a boxing stance while Yosaku positioned his sword towards Mr 10.

" Someone like you doesn't even deserve to fight Zoro and admire his power. "

" Tssss! I don't care about your opinions! And you know what ? I intend to give him a present. "

Aiming his ax at the duo, the man cried out.

" I will offer him your heads. "

Remaining on the ground, Menma was unable to move.

" I am in pain ! "

" Menma! Open your eyes! Menma ! "

Opening her eyes weakly, the young girl noticed that she was in a strange place where everything seemed dark.

" What … ? " She wondered.

" Menma! You have to fight. "

Opening her eyes wide, Menma recognized that voice, which kept haunting her dreams, she was sleeping in. Feeling a huge headache, she ordered.

" Shut up ! Leave me alone. "

" Menma! I am here to help you. "

Opening her eyes again, Menma saw the dark haired boy in front of her.

" Menma ... I don't want you to die again. "

" What? Pass away ? But I am not dead…? "

In more pain, Menma put her hands on her head, uttering a huge cry. Hurting her, her brain gave her the impression that it was going to explode.

" My head … ! My head … ! Help ! "

Suddenly, a hand rested on her head. Seeming to feel her pain instantly disappear, Menma stopped screaming and looked at the child in front of her. Smiling at her, the boy suddenly grew taller. Then, assuming the aspect of a young adult, he cried out.

" Menma… I'm glad to know that you made new friends. "

Not knowing what to say at first, Menma finally looked into the man's eyes, before finally whispering.

" Jintan ? "

" Menma… " The boy said simply.

At that moment, four more children appeared in front of Menma, smiling at her the same way Jintan did.

" Tsuruko? Yukiatsu? Poppo? Anaru ? "

Hearing their first name, the children also transformed into young adults and each put their hands on the head of their former friend.

Not knowing what to say, Menma had a flash and finally remembered everything. She remembered her old life.

" The friends ? "

Just continuing to smile at him, his friends' bodies eventually turn transparent. Then, one by one, apart from Jintan, his friends disappeared, while uttering these sentences.

" Menma… you have to live. "

" Menma… you must love life. "

" Menma… you must be enjoying your new life. "

" Menma… you have to help your friends. "

Seeing them disappear, Menma began to cry as she cried out.

" No, don't go! Friends… I… I… "

" Menma… "

Simply staring at the child, the boy crouched down in front of her before hugging her.

" We no longer belong to your life! Menma, you have new life and new friends! It is with them that you must live. "

" No ! No ! I do not want ! Jintan… I also want to be with you. "

'' Me too ... and that's why I will always be with you. "

" That … ? "

Standing up, Jintan presenting his ghostly body to Menma as he disappeared too.

" Menma, as long as you keep thinking about me, I'll always be there! Menma… I love you. "

At that moment, opening her eyes, Menma found herself in a desert place. Grimacing as he felt her face hurt, the child suddenly straightened up, to see Johnny and Yosaku fighting Mr. 10.

The man, preferring to kill Yosaku who still had his weapon, aimed his ax at him, to disembowel him. Seeing him run back to avoid him, the man cried out.

" You are just a bunch of cowards! I'd be happy to behead you. "

" Johnny… Yosaku…? "

Suddenly lowering her gaze, Menma saw Johnny's sword not far from her.

Finally running towards Mr 10, Yosaku aimed his sword at his face. Still, using his ax, the man had no problem stopping him. Worse yet, smiling cruelly he exerted all his power and finally heard Yosaku's sword crack, before finally destroying the weapon.

Taking a step back, the pirate saw his weapon destroy itself before feeling Mr. 10's ax gut it open. Screaming in pain, he spat blood.

Sneering at him seeing him like that, Mr 10 was then surprised to see him smile, as he collapsed forward.

" Johnny ... "

Running behind Yosaku, his comrade put one foot on his back and used it as a springboard. Finding himself on top of Mr 10, he pointed his fist in his direction, hoping to strike him. Seeing him do it, Mr 10 looked annoyed as he roared.

'' Is that your tactic? You fools. "

Yet he was surprised again when he heard.

" Johnny ? "

Not even being able to turn around, Mr 10 saw a sword whirling near his head as he walked towards Johnny. Grabbing it, the pirate saw Menma behind Mr 10, smiling at him despite her injuries.

" Let's go. "

" Thank you, Menma. " Cried the man, clutching his sabers in his hands.

" That won't change anything. " Mr 10 retorted, aiming his ax at him. " I will destroy your weapon like that of your friend. "

Content to attack, Johnny struck the blade of the ax with his saber. Immediately, cracks appeared on the pirate's sword, while he was weaker than Mr 10.

" Hahaha! Poor fool! I warned you ! I'll behead you! And then I would cleanse this little angel. "

Grumbling, Johnny then thought back to all his training hours. Since joining the crew, he had trained over and over again. Because, compared to Yosaku, Johnny didn't like his place among the weak group of people on the crew.

No, he wanted to get strong. He wanted to show his worth to Luffy and Zoro. He wanted to have the strength to become a hero.

Then uttering a war cry, he roared.

" I would become a true warrior and a disciple who will never shame Aniki again! HIROZUSEIBA ! "

At that moment, Mr 10 was frightened when he saw the blade of his ax crack, before breaking.

" What … ? "

Passing behind him, Johnny ends up stowing his sword in the new one of his belt. Then, getting up, he finally heard Mr 10's body collapse to the ground, while a huge wound was visible on his abdomen.

" Impossible ... this cockroach ... it conquered me? "

The man lost consciousness as he fell to the ground. Catching his breath, Johnny finally inhales, before screaming.

" I did it ! My first victory. "

" Johnny, you were amazing. " Menma assured.

" Thank you for your help, Little-Menma. "

" And me ? " Wanted to know Yosaku.

Trying to sit up, Yosaku had his hand on his abdomen which was bleeding profusely.

" I need help. "

" I arrive. " Johnny cried, running up to him.

For her part, Menma remained motionless. She was enjoying her memories. Having regained her memory, she began to mumble.

" Jintan… my friends… "

then looking at her hands, Menma suddenly got scared.

" What … ? "

Turning transparent, her hands were disappearing, as were her legs.

" My hands … ? "

Having regained her memory, Menma suddenly recalled a discussion she had had with the Guardian of the Afterlife. Since she had regained her memory, she had to pay the repercussions.

Helping Yosaku to his feet, Johnny cried out.

" We behaved like men. "

" Yeah ! Aniki would have been proud of us. "

'Speaking of which, we better get back to town! Don't forget that the old lady is gone to kill our friends! If she meets Usopp or Vivi, she might take advantage of her age to fool them!

" But, and Little-Menma ? "

'' What do you think, Menma? " Wanted to know Johnny. " Are we going to find her or ...? "

Falling silent, the man suddenly noticed that Menma had disappeared.

" What … ? Little-Menma? "
