Beta: Memodo Shiki.
Chapter XX.
Last Time.
Lucci got up and stared at Luffy. "Don't you remember? This is the form I was in when I beat you with one move." Luffy nodded looking at him.
"Yeah sure... But I was really hungry that day." Lucci dashed in front of him.
"Shigan! (Finger Pistol!)" Luffy dodged by jumping in the air.
"Gomu Gomu no Jetto Bazūka! (Gum Gum Jet Bazooka!)" Luffy hit's Lucci in the stomach with both hand.
"Tekkai! (Iron Body!)"
Lucci tried to block but was sent flying back to the other side of the room. Franky ran through the door.
"Franky you got to save Robin!" Luffy yelled over his shoulder as Franky nodded.
"Just SUPER leave it to me!" Franky yelled over his shoulder as he continued running.
Now.
Naruto, And Robin.
Naruto was attacking Marines as Franky ran up the steps and started helping as other Marines suddenly fell down around them with explosions.
"Who did that? The two on the bridge didn't attack."
Suddenly more Marine's went down from being hit by something as Naruto attacked the others.
"There someone's on the Tower of Justice!"
Spandam, who got up from his attack looked on wide-eyed. "What?! But how? It's so far away!"
Squinting her eyes Robin saw Usopp standing on top of the tower posing singing his 'hero song' before Spandam was suddenly hit again.
"What are you waiting for?!"
Zoro And Sanji.
"They've started the attack on the island," Zoro said as he, and Sanji looked through the window seeing the cannonball.
"And those whirlpools are gone, must have been the closed gate's that created them," Sanji commented as he took a drag from his cigarette.
"And with the gates wide open, it leaves the current, and Warships to freely come in. Things are about to get ugly." Zoro finished resting his arm on his sword's.
Sanji looked up to Usopp, who was on the floor above them. "Hey, Sogeking. (Sniper king.) Things are getting serious, jump down here." Usopp looked down shaking his head.
"Hell no, I don't have super strength like you two."
Suddenly three cannon ball's hits the tower's top half off, hit the drawbridge, breaking it, and fell down the hole.
"USOPP!"
Zoro and Sanji yelled as smoke covered where the top half was. "Where are you Usopp?!" Sanji asked before hearing a scream.
"Someone say my name?!"
Usopp asked falling straight down and hits the floor. Usopp brought his head up as Sanji, and Zoro yelled at him. "Why did you make us think you were dead?!"
Usopp just stared at them wide-eyed as a bump formed on his head. "You guys couldn't bother to save a hero who jumped off a falling building? Some friend's you are."
Sanji picked up his den-den mushi. "Hey Robin-chan, Naruto, Franky we're alright."
Luffy Vs. Lucci.
Luffy panted as he stared at Lucci.
"Robin will be fine... I know Franky, will get to her in time." He said with a smile as Lucci just glared.
'I was careless... This new power of his took me by surprise. Lucci thought before addressing Luffy. "Whatever you're doing seems to be taking its toll, shame this fight was starting to get interesting."
"I don't care what happens to me... As long as I can beat your ass!" Luffy replied as Lucci put's his hand on his chin.
"I See, how stubborn."
Lucci disappeared as Luffy followed each attacked while dashing around the room. Luffy landed, and held his left hand out in front of his face."Gomu Gomu no Jetto Pistoru! (Gum Gum Jet Pistol!)" Luffy grazed Lucci's cheek with his punch.
"Gomu Gomu no Jetto Wippu! (Gum Gum Jet Whip!)" Luffy kicked Lucci into a wall, cracking it.
Luffy pulled his leg back and panted as he stared at Lucci. "Soru! (Shave!)" Lucci dashed to Luffy, and jabbed him multiple time's."Shigan: ren! (Finger Pistol: Yellow Lotus!)"
Luffy dodged every one before jumping in the air. After a moment, Lucci looked up as Luffy brought his foot down.
"Gomu Gomu no Jetto Stampu! (Gum Gum Stamp!)" Lucci dashed out of the way into some boxes as Luffy hit's the floor with his attack.
Lucci threw several boxes at Luffy and got up. 'His physical power's is that of a Rokushiki. (Six Powers.) master. That red hue of his skin, and that steam. Where's this coming from?' Lucci thought before his eyes widened.
He and Luffy jumped after each other. They both punched each other, sending the other one away.
"Kamasori! (Razor!)"
Lucci Moved around in the air as Luffy jumped up after him."Gomu Gomu no Jetto Pistoru! (Gum Gum Jet Pistol!)" Luffy punched Lucci in his chest sending him back a few feet.
Luffy panted as he ended his technique. "I see, it's like you doped your heart," Lucci said then started explaining about Luffy technique. "You use your legs as 'pumps' to accelerate your blood."
"It's a good thing you're rubber, or else your heart would explode. And your body probably can't handle it for long." Lucci finished as Luffy stared at him.
"Your shortening your life for that few minutes of using it." Luffy glared at him.
"It's better than having you take everything away from me!" Lucci just scoffed.
"You've already lost. Didn't you hear that blast? The 'buster call' has already begun. I bet your friend's in the tower are already dead, maybe they're already running here to save you." Lucci finished before turning around and kicked the wall.
"Rankyaku! (Tempest Kick!)" Water started coming from the hole Lucci made.
"What did you do?"
"You might be able to defeat me. But the water will flood the tunnel drowning everyone who's in it."
"You teme. (Bastard.)" Luffy said wide-eyed as Lucci just stared.
"Face the fact's Straw Hat I'm interested in seeing you try and save your friends." Luffy glared at him before yelling.
"This isn't a game we're playing!"
Robin, Naruto, And Franky.
"They're here!" A Marine yelled as Robin, Naruto and Franky stopped attacking. Gasping, Robin fell to her knees.
"No." She whispered seeing the ten Warship's before they started firing.
"The targets are 'Straw Hat' Luffy and his crew. All except Nico Robin who's now on the Bridge of Hesitation!" a Marine yelled over a ships speaker.
Spandam started laughing. "The buster call has finally begun!" He said as cannon balls littered the island, setting it ablaze.
The warships went past the bridge as Spandam laughed. Robin held herself and started shaking. She remembered the buster call from her island, and cried."The buster call... Such destruction."
Naruto placed a hand on her shoulder before looking forward, took several steps, and red chakra started forming around him.
Nami And Gina.
"Kokoro, Chimney, Gonbei thanks for the arrows," Nami said as she and Gina caught up to them running down the hall with an unconscious Chopper tied to Kokoro's hat.
After running for a while they head Sanji, and Zoro bickering with Usopp.
"If you don't can it then we'll make you run!"
"Guess they finished with their fight," Gina commented as they continued to run while Chimney was talking to Nami about how Luffy busted the doors and became small for a bit.
They suddenly heard water rushing before stopping as they saw water rushing at them.
"AAH!"
They all screamed running away from the water, coming up to Zoro, Usopp, and Sanji.
"Go back, go back!"
Luffy Vs. Lucci.
"Geppo! (Moon Walk!)"
Lucci jumped up to a ladder leading up to a higher room.
"Get back here!" Luffy yelled following after him.
When Luffy got to the top, he saw Lucci grinning at him. "We're above sea-level, so we can finish this fight without the fear of drowning. You can hear them right? The cannon fire." Lucci said hearing the multiple blasts from outside.
"I wonder how your crew's fairing? Nico Robin?" Lucci asked as Luffy looked down the tunnel they came from and saw the water's up to the entrance. "I won't stop you if you want to run off, and save them." He finished as Luffy looked back to him.
"No, I'm not taking my eyes off you until you're down for good. You'll just attack my friends if I leave. Besides Naruto's with them." Luffy said getting into a stance.
"You've got some determination. It's a pity you're on the wrong side of the law."
Lucci and Luffy dashed to each other and attacked each other with a fury of punches, each blocking the other. Lucci feint a punch then kicked Luffy in the air.
"Kamasori! (Razor!)" Lucci dashed over, and kicked him down."Shigan! (Finger Pistol!)"
Luffy jumped out of the way before Lucci kicked him. "Rankyaku: Hyōbi! (Tempest Kick: Leopard-Tail!)" The swirl projectile hit's Luffy as Lucci dashed and tried kicking him.
Luffy wrapped his leg around Lucci's and twisted his arm. "Gomu Gomu no... Rifuru! (Gum Gum Rifle!)"
Lucci counter sending Luffy back a few feet. "Tekkai: Utsugi! (Iron Body: Empty Tree!)" He dashed over and wrapped his tail around Luffy's neck.
Luffy twisted his body, grabbed Lucci's tail, and started spinning around before throwing Lucci in the air.
"Now Gomu Gomu no... Pistoru! (Gum Gum Pistol!)" Luffy brought his fist to Lucci who dodged and landed in front of Luffy.
Grinning, he 'flicked' his finger at Luffy. "Bachi! (Sting!)" An air projectile hit's Luffy in his shoulder stopping him from running.
Lucci dashed around the room and attacked him with the same move. "Tobu Shigan: Mitsubachi!(Flying Finger Pistol gun: Triple Sting!)"
Lucci attacked three time's hitting Luffy. Lucci stopped grabbed his hand, and sent a fire projectile."Tobu Shigan: Hibachi! (Flying Finger Pistol: Fire Sting!)"
Luffy blocked but was sent tumbling on to his stomach. "I'd be surprised in expecting a real fight from you." Lucci taunted as the smoke cleared showing Luffy crouched holding his right thumb near his mouth.
"So... You're looking for a real fight?" Luffy asked smirking bring his thumb close to his mouth. "I've got one more trick... Just remember this is your idea." Luffy threw he left arm back.
"Gia Sādo! (Third Gear!)"
Luffy bit his thumb and blew in to hit hard causing his hand to become big.
"Hone Fūsen! (Bone Balloon!)" Luffy's size went to his chest.
"The power move from one bone to the next." The power went to his left arm.
"My left arm... IS THE ARM OF A GIANT!" Luffy brought his giant arm forward to Lucci.
"You can't intimidate me... Tekkai! (Iron Body!)"
Luffy punched him out of the building which broke to piece's around the attack. "Gomu Gomu no... Giganto Pistoru! (Gum Gum Giant Pistol!)" Lucci crashed on to a ship that was passing by
Luffy's brought his giant form to his chest as Lucci changed into his human form just as the Marine's aimed their gun's at him.
"Lower your weapons!"
The captain yelled as Lucci took off his jacket showing a scar in the shape of the World Government logo on his back.
"This is Rob Lucci of CP9." The Marine fell down as the others looked at Lucci in shock spouting apologizes.
"Quiet. You're whining is annoying." The Marine's covered their mouth's as Lucci glared ahead.
"Gomu Gomu no... Rocketto! (Gum Gum Rocket!)"
Luffy flew towards the ship's as the Marine's fired at him sending their bullet's back to them. Luffy sent his foot in the air, with it growing to giant level's.
"Gomu Gomu no... Giaganto Akkusu! (Gum gum Giant Ax!)" Luffy brought his leg down and bent the ship in half.
"Rankyaku! (Tempest Kick!)"
Luffy dodged Lucci's attack as he jumped up on the mast. Lucci jumped over, changed into his leopard form, and bit him in his left shoulder.
"AAH!" Luffy screamed before making his chest big sending Lucci back to the mast, changing back to his human form.
"Gomu Gomu no... Giganto Wippu! (Gum Gum Giant Whip!)"
Luffy swung his giant leg over Lucci breaking all the masts on the Warship. Lucci changed into his hybrid form and dashed behind Luffy. "Your new technique's come at the price of your speed."
Lucci kicked Luffy down to the deck of the ship."Rankyaku: Gaicho! (Tempest Kick: Victory Bird!)" Lucci sent a bird-shaped projectile down, cuts through a mast, having Luffy dodge at the last second, and cuts the ship down the middle.
"That was close... He almost cut right through me." Luffy panted as he stared up at Lucci who was using Geppo. (Moon Walk.) to stay in the air.
Suddenly the other ships shot them causing Luffy to blow a lot of air out of his mouth sending him back to the destroyed building, shrinking into a very small form.
"Man, that was close," Luffy said in a higher pitched voice. He sat up and stared at the smoking ship. "Why the hell did they fire at their own ship? Are they that stupid?" Luffy asked himself as he panted.
"I'm small again.. Gia Sādo (Gear Third) Is a good idea, and it's pretty powerful, but the side effect suck's." He took a look at his hands. "I was big for a minute so... I should only be small for a minute." He said clenching his hand's into fists and ran inside. "I should hide until then, or he'll squash me like a bug!"
A few minutes later Lucci flashed in and attacked Luffy. "He sniffed me out," Luffy said painfully as Lucci stared at him.
"So that power takes as much as it gives seems fair... One must always pay a price when using great power." Lucci said to the downed Luffy. "Seimei Kikan: Kami-e Bushin! (Life Return: Paper Art Fighting Form!)" Lucci's form shrunk to his original size.
Lucci disappeared and jabbed Luffy. "Shigan! (Finger Pistol!)"
Luffy was pushed in the air and coughed a little blood out. Lucci then grabbed his neck and slammed him against a wall. "Time to give up-!" Luffy interrupted him by slapping him with his small fist.
Glaring, Lucci punched him further and jumped back. "Damn it I can't move," Luffy said as he tried to get out of the wall.
"I'm sorry I have to kill you in that form," Lucci said before dashing at Luffy who was still trying to get out.
"Shigan: Madara! (Finger Pistol: Spots!)" Lucci used both of his hands to jab at Luffy only to stop feeling pain in his leg's.
'That move from before damaged my legs.' Lucci thought to remember back to Luffy's giant punch.
Luffy suddenly changed back to normal and panted as he looked at Lucci. "You see... It worked, I damaged you after all." Luffy said as he grinned at Lucci.
The Others.
Sanji pounded the ground after Kokoro saved them by revealing she was a mermaid who can walk on land after old age.
"ROBIN!"
The others cried as they hugged Robin after getting to Naruto and Robin. Naruto panted as he had blood speckled on him.
"(Pant!) Let's raise some hell until Luffy gets here," Naruto said taking his knife out. But suddenly looked behind him.
"What's wrong Naruto?" Gina asked as she looked around.
"It's nothing... I just thought I heard something." He replied before cutting a couple of Marines.
"Put some damn clothes on.. I'm going blind!" Franky yelled to Kokoro covering his eyes.
Naruto and Zoro jumped off the ship to the bridge and looked at the island that's now on fire.
"Damn I bet they'll start coming off the ships when they're done attacking the island," Naruto commented as the other's came up on the bridge.
"Should we go, and help Luffy?" Usopp asked with Zoro shaking his head.
"No the person he's fighting is on a whole different level... Besides Luffy would never forgive us if we take a fight from him."
Luffy Vs. Lucci.
"My attack really messed up your legs didn't it?" Luffy asked smirking at Lucci.
"I see, (Pant, Pant.) that ridiculous fighting style's more than fun, and games," Lucci said panting as he stood up from his crouched position. "But don't count me out. A Rokushiki. (Six Powers.) Master needs to be able to sustain the power also."
Luffy dashed at him and punched him only for Lucci to block and kick him away.
"Rankyaku: Gaicho! (Tempest Kick: Victory Bird!)" Lucci sent a projectile at Luffy who hit a wall.
Luffy quickly got up and ran out of the way. Luffy pumped his leg, and steam started coming off him. "This is the last time... I won't stop until I take you down. YOU HEAR ME?!" Luffy asked/yelled at Lucci.
"Your body can't take this you'll kill yourself," Lucci explained as Luffy's skin took a pink, shiny hue.
"Maybe... There's only one way to find out. Now Gia Sekando! (Second Gear!)" Luffy dashed over and punched Lucci who jumped back a little.
"Gomu Gomu Jetto Pistoru! (Gum Gum Jet Pistol!)" Luffy looked on in shock as Lucci jumped around.
"He jumped back so that the punch wouldn't hit him so hard," Luffy said before Lucci appeared before, and tried to jab him a few times.
"Shigan! (Finger Pistol!)" Luffy dodged every one before jumping back. Lucci chased after him, and punch him.
Luffy blocked it with his palm and tried to punch him but Lucci blocked with his arm. Luffy shot his left arm back, and quickly brought forward, punching Lucci's stomach. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Bureto! (Gum Gum Jet Bullet!)" Lucci was sent back and fell to one knee.
"Gomu Gomu no Jetto Bazūka! (Gum Gum Jet Bazooka!)" Luffy slammed both of his hands into Lucci slamming him into a wall Luffy stretched his arms back, and ran at Lucci. "I've got to end this with Rokushiki's. (Six Powers.) Final move." Lucci said getting up.
He dashed in front of Luffy holding his fist's to his stomach. "Rokushiki Ōgi: Rokuōgan! (Six Powers Ultimate Attack: Six King Gun!)" Luffy was sent to the floor on to his back.
'It's like those impact dial's back on Skypeia.' Luffy thought as he remembered his fights from the sky island. "But it feels like these hits are a hell of a lot harder." He finished before Lucci kicked him.
The Others.
Naruto had his arms crossed as a warship blew up from the explosive tags he threw.
Everyone saw a projectile come out of the building Luffy, and Lucci are fighting in."That Lucci guy's strong as hell." Franky commented as they stared at the destruction.
"Everyone get ready. I'll take care of the warships!" Naruto ordered as they got ready.
"How the hell are you going to do that?!" Zoro asked as a gold energy surrounded Naruto.
His body is now covered in gold chakra which emanates from him reminiscent of flickering flames with two horns on his head, six magatama markings around his neck, some sort of prominent circular/swirl design over his stomach, and various other lines extending along his body.
He turned back to the ship they took. "Stay close to the ship, and protect it if you can." The girls nodded as he turned back, and grinned.
He jumped on a ship that came near theirs. "It's 'Elemental Sage' Naruto!" A Marine yelled as Naruto attacked them, destroying the ship completely before jumping through the porthole of another and landed in their ammunition room.
BOOM!
"I.. I can't believe it... He took two out like it was nothing." Gina said in awe seeing the ships explode.
Naruto jumped high in the air and a large gold three-headed, six-armed fox/human hybrid formed around him and he swung his arm down at one ship, cutting it in half.
(A/N: Ashura's Kurama Avatar Mode.)
"DESTROY THEM!"
A Marine Captain yelled as more Marine's jumped off their ships, and attacked.
"They're afraid of us!" Zoro yelled out over the group.
Everyone attacked the growing group of Marines.
"Wait... Look over there." The Marine attacking Usopp looked to his left, and Usopp attacked him with Kabuto.
"Damn! Stomp on one, and five more come out." Zoro said looking at his group. "Come on... Is there anyone with a backbone here?" He asked before a tall man with brown hair, beard, and a broad ax walked up to him.
"Ooh... A broad ax interesting."
The man brought his ax down causing Zoro to block with his two swords. The man continued to attack causing Zoro to frown.
"Come on... You're gonna have to do better than that." The Marine smirked, and started spinning.
Zoro crossed his sword's in an 'X' to block but was being pushed back. "Santoryu: Oni Giri! (Three Sword Style: Demon Slash!)" Zoro dashed forward stopping the attack, and sent the Marine into the air, and crash on to another Marine who was attacking Usopp.
"Good one buddy!" Usopp said giving a thumbs up to Zoro.
Nami threw yellow balls into the air, and lightning, lightning came down on to a big group. "Sandāboruto Tenpo! (Thunderbolt Tempo!)" She hit the ones trying to get on their ship.
Franky attacked the Marine's who tried jumping off their ship's. Nami jumped off the ship and attacked using her staff. Robin, not wanting to be left out attacked Marines with her hand's.
"Don't worry about me... If the crew's fighting, then I am too!"
Luffy Vs. Lucci.
"Well it's just like you said, they all survived I'm rather impressed," Lucci said to a smirking Luffy who was crouched with one hand on the floor.
He dashed to Lucci throwing punch's that Lucci blocked."What's wrong? Don't tell me that technique's losing its edge." Lucci taunted keeping up with Luffy's attack.
Luffy stretched his leg high in the air and brought it down. "Gomu Gomu no Jetto Akkusu! (Gum Gum Jet Ax!)"
Lucci jumped out of the way into the air and sent multiple airwaves at Luffy who attacked with a barrage of punches.
"As long as Robin's wanted by the law... I'll chase her to the end's of the earth that's 'Dark Justice'." Luffy glared as he continued attacking.
"You won't be chasing anybody! I'm ending this right here, right now!" Luffy jumped up and tried to kick Lucci who dodged and came up behind him putting his fist to his chest.
"Rokuōgan! (Six King Gun!)"
Luffy coughed up blood as he was sent to the floor. Luffy got up, took a few steps towards Lucci before falling on his stomach.
"LUFFY!"
Looking to his right out the hole, Luffy saw Usopp without his mask yelling at him."What the hell are you doing?! GET UP!" Luffy squinted his eyes.
"Usopp? (Pant, Pant!) I didn't know you were here." He said panting.
"Don't get the wrong idea... I only came to save Robin since she had nothing to do with the Merry!" Usopp replied as Zoro, and clones of Naruto kept Marines from attacking him.
"Hey, you boss cat of the CP-9!" Usopp turned to Lucci to address him. "I'm your opponent from here on out! Come and get some! I am a feared, and respected Pirate. I command an army of over eight thousand men! I'm the great, and powerful CAPTAIN USOPP!"
"I've traveled across the Grand Line, I've destroyed island, after island, if the World Government wants to go toe, to toe with me... I'll crush you using only my pinky!" Usopp yelled flexing his left pinky finger.
Lucci spat out a little blood but didn't acknowledge Usopp. "Oh... Are you just a scaredy-cat?!" Lucci turned to him and glared.
Lucci walked to the edge of the hole as Luffy weakly tried to stop him. "You already lost. I'm going and kill every one of your crew, and save you for last so you can watch." Lucci said as Usopp kept yelling at Luffy to get up.
"You're right Usopp." Lucci's eye's widened as he glanced back, and saw Luffy crouching.
"Finish him! So we can leave together!" Usopp yelled over as Luffy lifted his head.
"I'LL WIN NO MATTER WHAT!"
"I'm surprised you can still stand," Lucci commented as Luffy panted.
"I'm never going to give up... You hear me? Until I win, I'm not going to fall to the floor ever again!" Luffy replied as Lucci returned to his original hybrid form.
"Seimei Kikan: Kaijo! (Life Return: Terminate!)" He stared at Luffy before speaking. "I'll end this in one blow. And don't worry about your little friends, I'll kill them after dealing with you."
Lucci dashed to Luffy and tried to punch him with both fists, but Luffy blocked with both of his. They jumped away, and dashed to each other, and attacked with a barrage of punch's each blocking the other.
The Others.
Back with the others Zoro looked over, and saw a Marine wearing a veil across his mouth and what appears to be a Newsboy cap version of the standard Marine uniform cap. The Marine jacket he has draped over his shoulder only reached to his waist and seems much thinner than the standard, as well as much shorter, barely reaching his waist level.
"You're Roronoa Zoro right?" He asked as Zoro nodded.
"That's right what's it to you?"
The Marine just stared at him. "I'm here to eliminate you." He dashed to Zoro, who did the same and slashed him with Yubashiri.
The Marine grabbed the sword with both hands, and Yubashiri rusted. Eyes widening, Zoro brought his swords back.
"I ate the Sabi Sabi no Mi. (Rust-Rust Fruit.) and became a rust man-!" He was interrupted by a kick from a Naruto clone sending him into the ocean.
Naruto looked at Yubashiri. "Damn sorry about your sword." Zoro sheathed his swords and picked up three Marine's swords.
Luffy Vs Lucci.
"Gomu Gomu Jetto Pistoru! (Gum Gum Jet Pistol!)" Luffy punched Lucci who was in the air before coughing up blood.
He punched Lucci two more times having him dodge before landing, and aimed his fist at him. Luffy jumped out of the way. "I won't fall for..." Luffy was interrupted by Lucci grabbing him with his tail.
"Sai Dai Rin: Rokuōgan! (Ultimate Radius: Six King Gun!)" The shock-wave hits Luffy and created a crater on the wall on the other side of the room.
Lucci dropped Luffy whose head bobbed back up to the ceiling. He walked past Luffy who took a few steps forward before stopping and started falling on his back. Luffy stopped himself from falling by crouching forward and coughed up blood.
'I'm never going to give up... You hear me? Until I win, I'm not going to fall to the floor ever again!'
Lucci stopped as Luffy turned around to see him glaring.
'Keep a close eye on Robin-chan... She'll grow to be more than you can handle.'
Luffy remembered Naruto explaining what Aokiji told him as he leaned back slightly. "Now Gomu Gomu no..." He remembered everything that's happened since Water Seven. He sent a barrage of punches at Lucci each leaving small sonic waves in the air.
"Tekkai! (Iron Body!)"
All of Luffy's multiple punches seemed to have hit him at the same time.
"Jetto Gatoringu! (Gum Gum Jet Gatling!)" Luffy screamed as he pushed Lucci to the wall, and right through it.
Ending his attack Luffy fell to his back as everyone stopped fighting.
"Attention! Rob Lucci of CP-9 has defeated by 'Straw Hat' Luffy! Repeat Rob Lucci of CP-9 has defeated by 'Straw Hat' Luffy!" Every one of the S.H.C. including Franky smiled.
"WE'RE ALL GOING BACK TOGETHER! ROBIN!"
Robin looked back, with a teary smile. Naruto ran to the edge with Usopp."Get your ass up here so we can leave!" Naruto yelled as Luffy panted.
"I can't move!"
Naruto cursed before he ran, and jumped the gap, and picked up Luffy. "OK let's go."
All the Marine's looked on in shock. "Impossible... This CP-9 is the second strongest, and Rob Lucci's was the strongest of the bunch." A Marine said as Naruto jumped over to the bridge with Luffy.
Suddenly he, and Usopp looked around. "That voice... I heard it when you all got out of the tunnel." Naruto said as Usopp puts his hand's to his ears, Hearing a faint voice.
The Galley-la and Franky Family talked over a den-den mushi.
"We're all alright!" Franky started crying.
"I'm so happy those bakas (idiots) are fine." The S.H.C. continued to fight every one of the Marines.
BOOM!
"No!" Nami screamed as their ship was hit by a cannon from the last warship before it exploded. Out of the smoke, Sanji ran out carrying everyone.
"Out of the way!" He yelled to the Marine's he passed.
"Damn what now?" Naruto asked slashing at the remaining Marine's
Suddenly, the S.H.C heard a voice."It says look below." Chopper said as Naruto, and Luffy looked down and smiled.
"MERRY!"
Down on the ocean, the Going Merry was floating.
"JUMP!"
Naruto ordered as they jumped into the ocean with Robin going last. Naruto got on the ship first with all but Robin and Chopper not coming up got on board. Kokoro threw the others up as Naruto caught Robin bridle style, and lets her go on to the deck.
"There's no one here," Sanji commented as Luffy turned to Robin, who used her power to keep him from speaking.
She stood up, and turned to everyone."Luffy, Naruto-Kun, everyone... Thank you." Everyone smiled at her, as Naruto ended his technique, walked over to her, and gave her a quick kiss.
"I told you... We will go to hell, and back for you Robin-chan." Zoro looked around.
"OK, OK save the sappy stuff until we get out of here." Sanji and Chopper now being able to move attacked him.
"Hey Chopper... You can move."
Chopper blinking looked at his hoof. "Yeah, you're right Zoro." Quickly changing into his human form, Chopper put's Zoro in an elevated Boston crab.
"Now apologize to Robin!"
As they were getting ready, they saw Spandam on the bridge. Robin created arms on him and bent him back as far as she could.
Crack!
Suddenly the gates started closing creating the whirlpools. As they were getting out the S.H.C deflected the cannon balls away back to the ships.
"I want to fight too!" Luffy yelled from his spot crawling to the railing.
Zoro and Sanji grabbed him, and stretched him having the ball's sent back to a ship."Naruto-Kun hard to port!" Nami ordered Naruto who was steering.
"Right!" He replied pulling the pole.
"Sorry, this might bang up your ship," Franky said holding a pip in-between his arm's. "Kū do Van! (Wind Blow!)"
The Going Merry was sent flying as Usopp sent a smoke bomb to hide their escape.
Later.
"Don't fall Luffy," Naruto warned as he puts Luffy on the figure-head.
"Thanks," Luffy said as he looked back. "And thank you, Merry." Franky looked to Luffy.
"The Government won't let you off easy burning their flag like that." He commented as Luffy rolled on to his back.
"No big deal. They took our friend." He replied as Robin who was leaning on Naruto who was sitting on the railing smiled.
"And thank you, Franky." Franky rubbed his head in embarrassment.
They continued sailing for a while as Luffy riding on Chopper looked for Usopp.
"Seriously, I just saw him."
Nami came out from inside. "There is no one here."
"I'm telling you guys, it was Merry's voice that we heard," Luffy said as everyone looked to him. Luffy suddenly pointed in front of them.
"There's a ship coming." Turning around, they saw a ship with the 'Galley-La' Logo on the sails.
They started cheering before the Merry suddenly split in half.
CRACK!
"Everyone alright?" Naruto asked holding his head. Luffy ran up to the figure-head and pleaded with Iceberg to help.
"She fought hard for you... But it's time to let her rest." Iceberg replied before explaining about Finding Merry and how she asked him to fix her to help them.
Later, everyone was standing on a small boat as Luffy on another took a torch, and set Merry on fire for a Viking funeral as the others started to cry.
"Thank you for everything. Merry." It suddenly started snowing as the S.H.C. remembered their time with the Merry.
"I'm sorry." They heard a female voice apologize.
"I wanted to carry everyone a little farther," Merry said to them.
"I wish our Adventures would never end. I'm so-!" Luffy interrupted her.
"No Merry you have nothing to apologize for. It's us who should be sorry." Luffy started crying. "We've crashed you into icebergs, and I ripped your sails. Zoro and Sanji are bakas (Idiots) too, breaking things. Usopp tried his best to fix you. But it wasn't good enough. If anyone's sorry... IT'S US!"
He finished as everyone wiped their tears.
"Don't worry, I was happy, I know you treated me well... Thank you. Even if our time was short... I'm glad I spent it with you." Merry finished as the fire covered her.
"MERRY!" Luffy screamed out to the sky.
