The people in the Straw crew were all tense for this new part of the Davy Back fight. While Foxy using his devil fruit powers tricked the Straw Hats into losing the donut race, this time it appears to be something more in the ally of both pirates and mage. While the team looked calm, the spectators were all nervous in what might happen to their team if they lose again. The Foxy pirates had three giants on their side and while the Straw-Hat group had a bunch of heavy lifters, they didn't know what kind trickery Foxy would pull off from his pocket.
''Look at those guys!'' Scream Usopp seeing the Foxy Pirates representatives.
''They are huge. Ten times bigger than any of us.'' Said Mirajane a little scared.
''Can they defeat them?" Asked Evergreen
''Well let's see.'' Said Robin
''We can help them out during the match remember.'' Said Makarov
''But what if they start to cheat?" Asked Nami
''We beat that crap out of them.'' Said Laxus
Foxy was there laughing and that laugh just made the Straw-Hat crew wanting to go there and beat him up but they knew that they couldn't do that at this situation.
''Feh Feh Feh you people don't stand a chance to my mighty team.'' Said Foxy smirking.
''Makarov. what do you think? Do we have a chance?'' Asked Gildarts
''I have all the faith in the world on our team members. They have Erza, Natsu, Gray and Gajeel there. So, our chances are high but we need be careful.'' Said Makarov
''Good to know.'' Said Laxus
''We have a nice advantage there.'' Said Lily
''Aye beat these idiots Natsu.'' Saide Happy
''We need to win this one if we want Chopper and Wendy back.'' Said Charla
''Who do you think they pwoudl pick up next if they win?'' Asked Bicslow
''Maybe someone strong.'' Said Freed.
''They want Zoro for sure and maybe Erza.'' Said Cana.
''But what about someone with looks. I see a lot of perverts looking at my sisters.'' Said Elfman seeing the foxy pirates looking at his sisters.
''Oh Efman.'' Said the two girls.
''I hope they don't take any more people from our crew.'' Said Lucy all nervous.
''don't worry Lucy. I´m pretty sure that those guys are going to deliver hell to these jerks.'' Said Luffy toward Lucy.
The comment made Lucy feel better as the game was about to start.
''Opposing our powerhouse Groggy Ring team is the vicious Straw Hat Crew. With cook Sanj, the pirate hunter Zoro and new comers…swordswoman Erza Scarlet, pyro Natsu Dragneel, cool stripper Gray Fullbuster and Metal expert Gajeel Redfox.'' Exclaimed Itomimizu narrating the game
''Since they called us, I expect fierce opponents. Aren't they cute?" Asked Pickles
''Poh Poh Poh.'' Laugh out Hamburg while Big Bun was only growling.
''These guys are weird.'' Said Sanji
''They are funny.'' Said Natsu laughing
''Shut up salamander.'' Said Gajeele
''Yeah. Shut up Natsu.'' Said Gray
''We are here to fight. So put all that you have in the tank against them. Understood?" Asked Zoro.
'Alright.'' Said Natsu all fired up.
Soon the game was about to start as the referee asked one question
''Field or Ball?" Asked him
''Ball!'' Scream Hamburg
''The Groggy Monsters Choose Ball! The straw Hats Ball-man must start in his opponent midfield circle. For the duration of the game, two players will wear the ball markers in their heads! Win by forcing your opponent Ball man into the opposite ring.'' Said Itomimizu explain the rules.
''Which side do you want?" Asked the referee
''Whichever.'' Said Hamburg
Soon the straw-hat side was ready to start the game
'Get in your position Ball man.'' Said Zoro to Sanji
''Yeah Sanji, move your ass.'' Said Natsu
''Shut up you two. I didn't agree to be the ball man.'' Said Sanji still pissed
''But you look so funny with this hat.'' Said Natsu laughing at Sanji
''So, hurry up cook.'' Said Gray
''At least I´m wearing a shirt!'' Said Sanji seeing Gray without a shirt.
''Oh, come on.'' Said Gray irritated.
''Stop whining.'' Said Zoro irritated with Sanji
''I´m not whining!''' Said Sanji
The crew was now cheering at full strength for their friend to win
''Come on guys. We are all counting on you all.'' Said Luffy.
''Yeah, go team.'' Said Happy.
''You can do this Erza.'' Said Levy.
''Gray-sama you are already a winner at Juvia heart.'' Said Juvia pretty much showing off her body
''Put your clothes on Juvia!'' Scream Usopp all nervous
''You think they are going to win easily?" Asked Laxus to Freed
''We have a good team but their trickery is good. We need to be careful.'' Said Freed
Charla however was desperate. She wanted the team to win so bad, so she could have Wendy again. The exceed only see her partner still there as a prisoner of the Foxy pirates still nervous but not crying anymore.
''Please, guys win.'' Said Charla all sad.
''don't worry Charla. They will win and soon Chopper and Wendy will be back at our group.
''I hope so Luffy.'' Said Charla a little better now.
''I know.'' Said Luffy
Nami however realized something, Foxy team won by cheating so maybe…
''Wait don't you think this is too much easy for them? I mean what if they pull of something out like last time.'' Said Nami
''Yeah, we were so close of winning that we lost last second.'' Said Lisanna
''Of course, we did. We can help our team is on the rules, so in the end still counts. Feh Feh Feh.'' Said Foxy listening to the Straw Hats discussion
''So, we need to be careful around you…bastard.'' Said lucy.
''You are not a man.'' Said Elfman.
''Agreed. No one should rely on trickery and lies.'' Said Makarov to Foxy.
''don't question me old man. I won these games more times that you got girls.'' Said Foxy
''What are you trying to say?'' Asked Makarov
''Your team has no chance against our monsters.'' Said Foxy with a smirk but the crew wasn't intimidated by him.
''Say whatever you want Foxy. You will regret making us your enemies.'' Said Lily
However, despite all the speech they all saw Sanji discussing with Zoro, Natsu and Gray.
''And they are discussing for the past five minutes.'' Said Usopp
''Oh come!'' Scream Nami
Back at the field
The Straw Hat team was having some problems with Sanji refusing to be the ball man despite their mutual decision. It was five against one so he shouldn't complain but he didn't stop there. However once Nami told him he look good in that hat he did a 180.
''don't worry girls I will win for all you all. I am like a prince.!" Scream Sanji
''You look like the prince of a stupid kingdom.'' Said Zoro
Sanji and Zoro then started to change blows with each other for what appear to be an eternity.
''Start the game!'' Scream Usopp
''Stop this!' Scream Erza separating the two
''Right Erza.'' Said the two
''Ok let's be ready.'' Said Gajeel
However, when they are all getting on their position, the referee stopped Zoro and Erza on the tracks.
''Weapons aren't allowed. You two need to take the swords.'' Said him
''Alright.'' Said Zoro going on fist
''Me too, ok.'' Said Erza taking off her sword and them her armor and almost her entire clothes but that's when Zoro stopped her from stripping down to the end.
''Hey, don't take of your clothes Erza!"' Scream Zoro seeing all the guys all nose bleeding from that.
''But this is part of my magic. I can fight naked if you want, what else do you have for me to use?'' Asked her
''Use a shirt!'' Scream Zoro giving Erza his shirt
''oh yes. Thank you Zoro.'' Said Erza smiling.
''Whatever.'' Said Zoro frustrated.
''Wow I have to admit. You have chivalry in your cold heart. But you also admitted.''' Said Sanji
''Admitted what?" Asked Zoro
''A swordsman without sword is just a pathetic person.'' Said Sanji
Soon after this comment Sanji and Zoro started to fight again.
''Oh, come on!'' Scream Usopp.
''I don't know who is worst those two or Natsu and Gray.'' Said Lucy with a sweat drop.
Soon the Groggy ring was about to start, and everyone was discussing plans
As the Straw-Hat team was ready to hit of their positions they were planning what they should do to not fall for Foxy tricks
''Ok we win if we look out at every direction. He has a lot of man at display.'' Said Zoro
''I think you should all let me beat them up.'' Said Natsu
''Natsu, this way you will get eliminated.'' Said Erza
''don't worry Erza I got this.'' Said him with a smirk
''You have some sense of morality.'' Said Gajeel
''Oh, come on guys. I want to beat those jerks.'' Said Natsu.
''This is not a silly game. Our friends are the price if we lose so we need to be at 100% right here.'' Said Erza
''Sure Erza. As long we be careful, we can defeat these idiots.'' Said Gray
''of course.'' Said her.
As they all prepared for the game the place went silent until the announcement was made.
''Will team Straw Hat reclaim their lost crewmembers o will team Foxy snatch away more people from the crew. In moments, the whistle will blow for the Groggy Ring!"' Said Itomimizu
The tension was now all over the place as the players were ready to attack each other and do whatever it takes to win the game.
''THE GAME BEGINS!" Scream Itomimizu
In just a second Pickles rushed toward Sanji with a charged on attack ready to beat the cook up.
''Sanji look out!'' Scream Gray. Sanji heard that and jumped at Pickles
''Gray, little help here.' Said Sanji
''Sure. Ice make Wall.'' Said Gray making ice to block Pickles
Gray ice was perfect for the Straw Hats advantage. Pickles got stuck which made the Foxy crew all worried about their victory.
''Go straight. Beat the guy with the ball.'' Said Zoro for the two.
''Hey, I want to beat those guys up!'' Said Natsu all pissed
''Natsu stay out at the moment. Wait your turn.'' Said Erza all serious.
''Fine.'' Said Natsu irritated.
Sanji and Gray were going a team up to take on Big Bun. He was with the ball so obviously the two were going to use all that they have in order to beat this giant fishman.
''Go!"' Scream Gray freezing Big Bun feet so he couldn't move.
''Huh.'' Said the fish man confused
''Colier…'' Said Sanji ready to kick but as soon that he touched Big Bun skin he felt all slippery
''What is going on?" Asked Gajeel confused.
''Sanji what is the problem?" Asked Gray.
''His skin is all slippery. I can't land an attack this way!'' Scream Sanji trying to not fall.
''Let me give you a…'' Said Gray preparing another attack. But unfortunately Pickles attack him from behind.
''TAKE THAT YOU ICE FREAK.'' Scream Pickles attacking Gray and putting in him on the ground.
''GRAY!'' Scream the Straw Hats in horror.
''Pickles gets free from the ice and puts down one of the straw-Hat man. Gray fullbuster did a good job but he wasn't ready to deal with the power of one of the groggy ring monsters.'' Said Itomimizu explaining the situation.
Soon the other members of Foxy team went to attack the rest of the Straw Hats.
''Oh no.'' Said Erza
''Here we go.'' Said Zoro with a fierce face
The straw Hat team had some difficulty at first. Even with their new powerhouse names like Natsu, Gajeel and Erza they still have some problems. Sanji was throwing away off Big Bun to the field, luckly Gajeel caught him (much to his displease because he wanted Erza to catch him). Later Hamburg went after Zoro and Natsu, the two tried to deliver an attack but Pickles blocked them. Even with Natsu fire dragon Claw the Foxy Pirate shield was not that easy to break which made all the Straw Hats members all look in horror of what they should do. Erza and Gajeel tried to handle Pickles next but the pirate only distract them enough time for Hamburg to kick Sanji.
'Poh poh. Gorilla Throw!"' Scream Hamburg
''AAAAAH.'' Scream Sanji
With Sanji in the air all the other members of the team went desperately trying to catch him. But even Erza, Zoro and Natsu couldn't get this far because Big Bun and Pickles were constantly blocking their way of going up. This was enough time for Hamburg to catch Sanji and going to take him to the main goal. That seen like the victory of the Foxy Pirates once again which made all the Straw Hats super nervous.
''AAAAAAH! GUYS DO SOMETHING.!'' Scream Luffy, Usopp, Elfman, Happy and Makarov.
Chopper and Wendy were near a heart attack upon seeing this chance of a goal. However, hope arrived last minute as Erza and Zoro grabbed Pickles by the feet and spin him around like a doll. In the meantime Sanji had enough space to get out of Hamburg grasps so he could to a spin and deliver a powerful kick into the gorilla and for great coincidence both Hamburg and Pickles were being throw at the same time and that's when the two clashes their heads together and Sanji got free from the goal. Making everyone super calm.
''NO GOAL! Ball man Sanji didn't even come close to the ring! The straw Hats have indeed powerful man in their tiny crew. But now with this heated dispute a fierce some battle is about to start!'' Scream Itomimizu
''That was close!'' Thought the entire Straw-Hat crew
Everyone was now amazed at this team teamwork and power. It was like nothing that have ever seen before in their life and for good reason, most of these team members weren't from this world.
''What happen here?" Asked Gray waking up from his attack. He was still super injured, but he could still walk.
''We were fighting for our life when you were sleeping jackass.'' Said Natsu
''Gray are you ok?" Asked Erza
''Yeah, I think I broke a few ribs, but I can treat them later.'' Said him.
''You want to go out. We can find a replacement for you?" Asked Sanji
''No, I can continue.'' Said Gray all determined.
''Ok what is our new strategy?" asked Gajeel
''We have to focus all our attention on Big Bun. He has the ball, so he is our main target.'' Said Erza.
''We beat those two easily, we can deal with him too.'' Said Zoro
''Yeah, lets crack his…'' Said Natsu however something intereput them.
Soon Big Bun foot come down and try to squash the straw-Hat team as if they were a bunch of cockroaches.
''AAAAH!"' Scream Big Bun ready to squash them.
''Hey man, this isn't cool.'' Said Natsu to the fishman.
''What we do now?'' Asked Gray
''Run!" Scream Sanji
Everyone saw their team members running away from Big Bun boots; however, they also saw something else in the fishman shoes that weren't easy to see.
''Wait a minute. He´s got spikes on his shoes!"' Said Zoro.
''Referee aren't weapons against the rules?'' Asked Sanji to the referee
However, the referee was a member of the Foxy Pirates, he only looks away whistling a tune while Big Bun try to squash everyone with his giants spike shoes.
''He is totally ignoring them!'' Scream Happy
''Feh Feh Feh. He just happened not to see it. What can you do.'' Said Foxy with a smirk making the Straw Hat crew hate the guy even more.
''Assshole!''Scream Lucy in pure hatred for that man.
''Gimme a break!'' Scream Sanji kicking his shoes at full force to the referee.
However, the referee instead of dying of that powerful kick only got up and continued his whistling, although he was bleed and was feeling a lot of pain.
''I didn't see a thing.'' Said the referee still ignoring the comments.
''He survived!'' Asked Usopp in shock
''At least his tough.'' Said Cana with a growl.
''yellow card for Sanji of the team Straw Hat.'' Said the referee giving Sanji the yellow card.
''Why you!'' Scream Sanji ready to kick the referee but it was hold off by Usopp.
''You asshole come here. I will bun you to a crisp!"' Scream Natsu spitting fire toward the referee. He dodged and soon pull out another yellow card.
''Also, yellow card for Natsu Dragnell of the Straw Hat team.'' Said him.
''You bastard!'' Scream Natsu ready to kick this guy ass.
'Natsu stop!'' Scream Lucy, Happy and Lisanna.
''Fine.'' Said Natsu listening to his friends as he went back to his team.
''Two yellow cards for the straw-Hat team. If they receive a red card, they will be forcibly have to leave the field and the straw Hat team is down of two players.'' Said Itomimizu much to the others shock.
However, the situation got worst when Big Bun was following Gray, Erza and Zoro with a giant axe.
''WE CAN'T USE OUR WEAPONS! WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH THIS REFEREE?" Asked Sanji to the referee.
''I don't see a thing.'' Said the referee still whistling
'Oh yeah,'' Said Gajeel
The Iron dragon slayer jump toward Big Bun and turn his arm into iron. He went ahead and grabbed the swinging Axe with his bare hands much to the others shock.
''Huh.'' Said Big Bun confused.
''No so tough now.'' Said Gajeel as he break the axe in two making all the Foxy Pirates hacing their jaws dropped.
''Yeah Gajeel.'' Said most of the crew
''Oh, it looks like Gajeel of the Straw-Hat crew had some tricks on his sleeve. Some kind of Iron Ability. Impressive!' Said Itomimizu.
Gajeel put Big Bun on the floor and soon it was clear what was his idea.
''Now come on you idiots grab the ball!'' Scream him toward his team
As Sanji, Gajeel and Erza were now going to the non-slippery parts of Big Pa, they were ready to kick his ass and score the goal. However, the fishman had some other ideas as he grabbed his feet and trapped the three into some kind personal prison.
''It the acrobatic Circus Race. Once inside you will be on constant slip that you will try to hang on as much as you want! There is no escape from this.'' Said Itomimizu narrating the events.
''Come on!'' Scream Usopp in horror
''This insane.'' Said Freed
''How can we compete with these guys if they are cheating every step on the competition?" Asked Bickslow.
''I don't know.'' Said Laxus
Soon the situation got worst when both Hamburg and Pickles gain their consciences and they were looking super angry at their rivals.
''Those douches are back" Said Natsu
''Not for long.'' Said Gray
''Natsu, Gray deal with them. We will concentrate in scoring the goal.'' Said Zoro
''Sure Zoro.'' Said the two mages.
While Zoro hoped that Natsu and Gray team up could help them it didn't. Soon Big Bun released his prisoners, and all the attention was to get them back, so Natsu and Gray went to catch their friends which led them to receive a Hamburger Hammer from Hamburg. Leaving them very far in the ground with blood coughing from their mouth. Things got bad once again for the Straw-Hat side when Pickles tackle Zoro, even when Erza and the others went to help they received a punched from a spiked glove that Big Bun had in his pocket. All of the Straw-Hat pirate's team members were on the ground bleeding and full of scars while the Foxy Pirates members were all fine and with smirk at their faces.
''Give us 10 seconds to recompose ourselves.'' Said Zoro to the referee who allowed that.
While the Straw-Hat members were using all that they have left to get back up, the crew was now on the edge of their seats all worried for the results. The Fairy Tail mages saw their major misfortunes, Erza was having problem picking up with those guys since their speed and trickery were on match, Gray had some injuries on his ribs but he could keep it up, Natsu and Gajeel were having difficult to use their magic with all that crap going on while Sanji and Zoro just stood calm and observe their surround
''At this rate we are going to lose again.'' Said Lucy trembling
''We need a miracle! COME ON GUYS!" Scream Usopp
Out of nowhere Foxy got out of his seat and said something to his mans.
''Guys! One Monster Burger please?" Said Foxy
Everyone in the field got really scared of what Foxy just said while the Straw Hats got very confused.
''Monster burger?'' Asked Zoro
''Is this good?'' Asked Sanji
''Man I´m hunger, a monster burger would go good right now.'' Said Natsu
''If is something related to a plan we need to be careful.'' Said Erza
''than that means this we need to be on our guard.'' Said Gray
''But what in the world is a freaking ´´Monster Burger´´?" Asked Gajeel
Soon the Foxy pirates' members were all nervous as the monster group took out various weapons from their clothes as they prepared something wicked.
''What are they doing?" Asked Luffy.
''All of them had weapons this whole time and we were dumb enough to follow these rules!'' Scream Usopp
''I hate these guys even more!'' Said Happy
However instead of charging at the adversary the Foxy group was singing a little song about hamburgers.
''They are not charging. But why?'' Asked Levy
''Maybe they have a plan in mind. Who knows.'' Said Robin
Soon the Groggy trio were now in position. Hamburg on front, Pickles on the middle and Big Bun on the back. Hamburg was smashing with a club; Pickles was swing around with a sword and Big Bun was using two giants piece of metal like if was two piece of bread.
''that's the monster Burger!'' Scream Itomimizu all scared of this.
Hamburg was ready to smash Sanji to a pulp with his club. However, Gray went near Sanji to help him out.
''Poh Poh Poh you´re all such fine meat.'' Said Hamburg with a smile
Sanji and Gray however didn't feel fazed as they were ready to end this crap.
''Cut-rate ingredients like you…are in bad taste.'' Said Sanji
''Ice make Gayser.'' Said Gray releasing a huge amount of ice
''ICE!'' Scream Hamburg trap in the ice
''My turn. Troi-siéme Hachis Hash!' Scream Sanji hitting Hamburg right in the face
This attack seen to be the last straw for Hamburg, Pickles went to help him but it end up right near Natsu
''Fire dragon Crushing Fang!" Scream Natsu
Soon Pickles was sent flying in pure flames. Now it was time for Big Bun
''Oh no!"' Said the fish man
''My turn! Iron Dragon Roar!" Scream Gajeel
Gajeel attack was enough to make the big giant felt all dizzy and in pain, one right move and is a goal for the straw hats.
''Isn't done?" Asked Erza
''Dont worry we are…'' Said Zoro but he was interrupted by Pickles coming back
As they felt all safe Pickles went back up and in a fit of rage went right toward Erza and Zoro.
''What we do now?" Ased Erza
''Copy me.'' Said Zoro
Erza follow Zoro movements to a good point. Both of them were dodging the attacks of Pickles as Zoro made a very curious pose.
''What is this?' Asked Erza
''Is called ´´no sword style´´ Said Zoro
Erza was now impressed with this ´´No Sword Style´´ technique. She might train a little bit of that in the time she and her friends are here. Both her and Zoro did the same movement and soon deliver a powerful attack at Pickles!
''TWISTER!'' Scream the two
The combine attack send Pickles right toward the very injured Big Bun. Not only that but Pickels accidently was cutting the giant fishman in the chest with his swords. Soon the Straw Hats were ready to attack again.
''Let's go!' Scream Gray as he, Natsu and Sanji charged.
''Bad manner Kick Course!"
''Ice make Sword!"
''Fire dragon Claw!"
After those attacks Big Bun was pretty much in such bad shape that it was pretty much sad. But the Straw Hats weren't going to be merciful on those guys. Gajeel charged this time and with a signature attack in hand
''Iron dragon club!''
With that Big Bun was pretty much standing upon unconscious. Now the other members of the Foxy Team were down so the ball was all theirs.
''Zoro…'' Said Erza nervous.
''ERZA NOW!'' Scream Zoro
''Right!'' Said Zoro all serios.
As both swordsman and swordswoman went right ahead and picked at Big Bun mouth much to everyone confusion.
''Big bun is now being controlled by both Erza and Zoro! What are those two are planning?" Asked Itomimizu
And after a lot of hard work and determination both Erza and Zoro use all their strength and slam Big Bun head into the goal.
BAAAAM!
Everyone was shocked by this because the newcomers managed to beat the all so fierce Groggy team very easily and they were all standing proud and cheerful
''GOOOOALLL! IS A VICTORY FOR THE STRAW HATS!"
The straw hat crew cheered like there is no tomorrow. They defeated Foxy cheating crew and put them in their place.
In the Foxy side Wendy and Chopper were both smiling upon seeing their friend victory.
''They did it!'' Said Wendy.
''Wendy, they won. We are going to get free.'' Said Chopper all happy.
''Yeah!' Said Wendy in tears.
Everyone was all happy for this, especially the Straw-Hat crew that was pretty much having a party mid competition.
''This was awesome!'' Said Usopp
''So manly.'' Said Elfman.
''Oh yeah Natsu.'' Said Happy.
''We shouldn't be underestimate, not even in another world.'' Said Makarov.
''Gray-sama won for Juvia!" Said Juvia all happy
''Not now you weirdo.'' Said Evergreen
''Gajeel did it.'' Said Lily all happy
''Of course, he did Lily. He said he would win and he did.'' Said Levy.
''Sanji kicks are something to be fierced.'' Said Freed
''If he was a mage he would be a pretty strong one.'' Said Laxus.
'But also Zoro techniques were on part with Erza. The two pretty much had perfect synchronization.'' Said Cana.
''if he keep it up he can be a match for Erza.'' Said Bicslow
''He is already.'' Said Lisanna
''Of course. In rivalry you mean.'' Said Elfmna
''Yeah sure.'' Said Lisanna with a smile
The entire crew saw their team members going back. Despite all the scars, cuts and blood marks they were proud of all this.
Luffy had only one thing left to say.
''Well done.'' Said Luffy to his friends
As they all cheer the crew went to hug their friends and thank them for this victory. Now there is only one game left and is Luffy time to win.
