" Damn it! Luffy, do something. " Natsu ordered, dodging a stone block in extremis.
" I can't do anything if he freaked out. " Luffy retorted, imitating him. "Hey, Franky, stop! It's an order from your captain."
Another roar was his only response. Continuing to run, the two friends were still being chased by Chopper (Franky). However, sniffing the air, Natsu eventually affirms.
"Luffy! I can smell your cyborg friend."
"Huh?" Luffy said. "Did you find Nami? Where?"
"Over there." Natsu assured him, running to the right.
A little after,, Luffy had no trouble discerning then gigantic footprints on the ground.
"Great! The Yetis have been through here."
"Yeah, I smell their scents too." Natsu assured, becoming a little more serious again. "All three are over there."
"Never mind! They don't scare me."
However, Luffy's smile disappeared from his face, the instant he felt the ground leave his feet.
"Huh?" he said as he now stood over a void, with Natsu right next to him.
Not having seen the huge precipice, right in front of them, the duo could only fall inside, screaming, while being followed by the huge body of Chopper (Franky).
"What is this delirium?" Natsu wanted to know, as he noticed that the bottom of the precipice was several hundred meters below.
"Hey, there's Nami." Luffy suddenly shouted, seeing Franky (Nami) completely tied up. "HEY, Nami."
"Luffy? Salamander? Franky?" Franky (Nami) wondered, seeing the trio. "Watch out, it's a trap."
"A trap?" Natsu wondered, lowering his gaze.
Staring more carefully at the bottom of the crevasse, he suddenly made out numerous stalagmites covering the ground and threatening to skewer them.
"AHHHHHHHH! Ice spikes!" Luffy shouted, seeing them in turn.
"Leave it to me! FIRE'S DRAGONS ROAR !"
Letting out a real column of fire, Natsu let his flames hit the ground and deteriorate it. Within seconds, each of the stalagmites was shattered before melting and turning to steam.
"That's the job."
"Perfect!" Luffy said, then wrapping his arm around his body. " And now, GUM GUM BALLOON ! "
Letting his belly swell, Luffy rolled onto his back and dropped to the ground. Arriving just next, Natsu lands on his stomach and bounces off it like on a trampoline.
"Hey, that's super handy your thing."
Nevertheless, distinguishing a shadow falling on top of them, the mage couldn't help but scream, while Chopper (Franky) fell on top of them.
"AHHHHHH! Emergency escape!" Luffy shouted, letting his body deflate at full speed.
Using the force of his breath, he managed to hover his body for several meters, taking Natsu with him, allowing them to avoid being crushed by the huge juggernaut.
"Phew! Saved!"
However, sensing a scent behind them, Natsu turned in time to see someone shooting at them with a huge gun.
" FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST ! "
Covering his fist in flame, he used it to slam the projectile into them, before shattering it completely. Nevertheless, taking advantage of the smoke it produces, the giant flees at full speed, taking advantage of the snow to camouflage itself.
"Cowards!" Natsu roared. "Fight on a regular basis."
"Hey, can you smell them?" Luffy questioned him.
"Yeah! There's three of them! And one of them is right in front of us."
"In that case, I'll take care of it." Luffy assured him, crouching down. " GEAR SECOND! "
Immediately feeling a strange smoke coming out of his body, Natsu preferred to take a step back, while Luffy began to charge towards the yeti in front of him.
"You, I'm going to slaughter you! GUM GUM... "
Suddenly rushing towards him, three rocks left the frozen ground to move at full speed towards the pirate.
"Huh? Luffy wondered.
Using his reflexes, he dodged them as best he could, while Scotch took the opportunity to aim precisely.
"Target locked."
Hearing him fire, Luffy managed to put both of his feet on one of the rocks that had tried to smash him and managed to jump on it in order to rise into the air. Too high now, he managed to see the projectile hit the rock and destroy it in pieces.
"Tsss! They have some pretty powerful weapons." Natsu remarked.
Perceiving a strange noise behind him, he bent down in extremis to avoid a rock having been thrown towards him.
" What is that ? "
"We also heard about you, dragon from Fairy Tail." Dogs affirmed, as he walked towards Natsu. "You, on the other hand, we must do everything to capture you and bring you alive to the master."
"Grrr! You work for Kaido, don't you?"
"I have no idea why Caesar wants you alive." Dogs confessed to him. "Me, I carry out the mission and period! So surrender without making a fuss."
Suddenly feeling a strong heat, Dogs was surprised to see the snow melting all around Natsu while the mage roared.
"After what you did to Happy and even Brownbeard...do you seriously think I'm going to surrender without kicking your ass?"
" Hum ? "
Then running towards him, while roaring, Natsu spun around, before sending his heel towards Dogs' face, while his foot was covered in flames.
" FIRE DRAGON'S CLAW ! "
As if carried by the wind, Dogs tilted his head to the side to avoid the kick.
"Nice!" He asserted, pulling out two guns from his fur.
Immediately firing several times, he forced Natsu to step back before the latter puffed out his cheeks.
" FIRE DRAGON'S … "
"I've got you." Dogs assured him, tugging at him, enjoying the fact that he was right in front of him.
" ROAR ! "
In an instant, Natsu's column of flames touched Dogs' projectiles and reduced them to molten metal. Seeing this, the little yeti could only moan in fear, as the attack continued its way towards him.
" OUUUUAAAAAHHHHH ! "
Seeing him disappear into a sea of flames, before an explosion finished him off, Natsu retreated while mumbling.
"It was for Happy."
Suddenly, Luffy landed near him, as he seemed to be getting tired.
"Damn giant."
"Luffy? Where are the other yetis?"
" I don't know. " His friend confessed, while trying to distinguish them with his gaze. "Either they flee...or they hide! And when they attack, I barely have time to see them when they disappear like magic! Besides, they give me twisted blows by attacking me in the back. "
"Don't worry! Each of us is going to fight one of those giants." Natsu assured him.
"And do you really think that will change anything?" Rock sneered, remaining concealed. "This place is like our kindergarten! We spent so much time there that we know every nook and cranny there."
"Besides, first of all, are you really sure that our brother was knocked out?" Scotch questioned.
" What ? "
" THE ROCKS'S DANCE ! "
A shower of boulders suddenly slammed into Natsu, hitting him in all directions. Swelling his belly, meanwhile, Luffy managed to push a few rocks back, before seeing them remain floating in the air.
"Hey! But what's the deal with those rocks? Are they magic or what?"
"No, it's just the powers of a Devil Fruit."
Disappearing then, the smoke caused by Natsu's last attack gave way to a gigantic shelter made from blocks of stone, having assembled against each other. Jumping over the huge structure, Dogs chuckled.
"I ate the Tere-tere no mi: the fruit of telekinesis! Now, thanks to the waves emitted by my brain, I am able to control any object around me."
And to prove it, the stone shelter, just behind him, separated into hundreds of rocks, which began to float in the air, all around him.
"Give it up, Mugiwara! Your death will be very quick then."
"As if mere rocks would scare me." The pirate retorted, taking a step towards him.
"Luffy, back off." A voice roared.
Getting up at that moment, Natsu passed his hand under his chin to erase the trickle of blood that had flowed there. Once done, his gaze showed nothing but anger as he affirmed. "
"That one is mine."
Unfortunately, not hearing it that way, Rock and Scotch suddenly appeared behind him, while aiming at him with their firearms.
"Do you really think you have a chance of defeating our brother?"
"Don't be so arrogant, vermin."
" GUM GUM GATLING ! "
Seeing dozens of fists shooting towards them, the two Yetis had no choice but to move their bodies in all directions before letting Luffy land right in front of them.
"I'll take care of those two! You take care of our third opponent."
"No problem." Natsu assured him. "I'll char him in two seconds."
"Me? being charred?" Dogs snickered. "DOGAGAGA! Let me laugh! I don't know what Fairy Tail is, but you seemed like a bunch of clowns to me."
In response, Natsu summoned the power within him, as flames erupted from the ground all around him.
"What…?" Dogs wondered, seeing the frozen landscape look more and more like hell. "What is this power?"
"It's the power of Fairy Tail mages." Natsu assured him. " KING'S DRAGONS MODE! FIRE DRAGON'S..."
"DIE!" Dogs yelled, throwing dozens of rocks at him.
" ... ROAR ! "
Hit by the pillar of fire, each of the rocks almost melted from the heat. Seeing this, Dogs immediately lifted a large block of rock out of the ground to use as a shield. Feeling Natsu's flames slam into his defense, he asserted.
"There's no point! You'll never be able to defeat the Yetis Cools Brothers."
" FIRE KING'S DRAGONS FIST ! "
Smashing his fist against the huge block of rock, Natsu cracked the surface of it before simply pulverizing it in an instant. Eyes widening, seeing this, Dogs tried to grab his revolver to shoot him.
A waste of time, being already in front of his face, Natsu's fist hit his nose and pulverized it as well as the rest of his face. Screaming in pain, Dogs was then thrown against a cliff and disappeared inside the latter.
"It was for what you did to Brownbeard." Natsu affirmed.
Suddenly hearing a roar, Natsu turned to see Luffy running towards him, while Chopper (Franky) pretended to crush him under his feet.
"What? Hasn't he come to his senses yet?"
Jumping in his direction, before landing beside him, Luffy affirmed.
"Couldn't handle it while fighting the other two giants."
"Exactly, where are those two?"
"Here!" Scotch suddenly shouted.
Then shooting in the direction of an ice spike, he blew it up so that its top fell towards the trio, as well as on Franky (Nami).
"AHHHH!" She cried. "The block of ice is falling on us! Do something."
"I'll take care of that." Natsu assured. " FIRE DRAGON'S... "
However, he stopped his attack to dodge another charge from Chopper (Franky).
"Are you going to stop?"
"Franky, don't you recognize us?" Luffy questioned him.
With only another roar, Chopper tried, this time to crush them under his fists. Seeing this, Rock began to target him, attacking him from behind.
"I'll make sure you can't run away."
"Luffy! Behind Franky!" Natsu shouted, smelling the Yeti's scent.
"I saw it." Luffy assured.
Immediately, taking advantage of Chopper smashing his fists against the ground, the two friends jumped up and ran onto his arms. Then reaching his shoulders, they leaped towards Rock, ready to hit him.
" GUM GUM … "
" FIRE DRAGON'S … "
Seeing them pass behind him, Chopper (Franky) immediately spun around, before leaping into the air, to grab the block of ice falling on top of them. Then using his brute strength, he swung it at the duo. Seeing this, Luffy grabbed Natsu's top, before swinging his second arm to grab hold of a rock.
Pushing them away from the trajectory of the block of ice, Luffy let it crash into Rock, who couldn't react in time to dodge it.
"Yosh! Well done Franky."
"Hi, he got it in one shot."
Still, seeing Chopper (Franky) continue to destroy everything, before turning back on them, Luffy asserted.
"You leave me no choice! GEAR THIRD !"
Then removing his glove, he blew into his thumb to make his arm grow. Seeing him take on the appearance of a giant, Natsu cried out.
"Wow, so loud! I didn't know you could do that too."
Then seeing the fist being covered with a layer of haki, he then saw Luffy send the latter in the direction of Chopper (Franky).
" ELEPHANT GUN ! "
Taking the attack in the face, Franky was ejected backwards and crashed into the side of a mountain.
"It's okay ! Problem solved."
" More than the last one. " Natsu affirmed.
Jumping then, he ran towards Franky (Nami), while a towering figure did the same.
"Like I'm going to let you take the hostage." Scotch assured, pointing his gun at him.
Attempting to shoot him, he saw Natsu start to zigzag to avoid his projectiles, before running towards him. Jumping then, he conjured up two large balls of fire in his hands.
"In my left hand, the flames of a dragon, and in my right, the flames of a god."
Then combining the two balls, he formed a bigger one which he sent towards the giant.
" FIRE DRAGON'S PURGATORY ! "
Seeing the attack, Scotch had no choice but to take advantage of a violent gust to slip away in one fell swoop. Hitting the mountain, the fireball only thawed everything around it, while Scotch's body was nowhere to be found.
"HUH? Where is he?"
"Help." Franky ( Nami ) shouted then.
"I've got you." Scotch sneered, holding it in his hand.
"Nami!" Luffy shouted, seeing the giant leave taking him with him.
Immediately starting to flee, Scotch was quickly followed by Natsu and Luffy who set off in pursuit. Yet within seconds Scotch was able to easily outrun them as they scaled the snowy mountain slopes.
Stretching out his arms, Luffy tried to send them as high as possible so as not to lose too much distance, while Natsu struggled to climb the mountain without his power being able to really help him.
"Damn it! I could've caught up to it no problem if Happy was there."
"HAHAHA! You'll never be able to find me in such a vast place." Scotch assured, arriving at the top of the mountain.
Stopping then, he was surprised to see someone right in front of him.
"Huh? Trafalgar Law? What are you doing here?"
"Huh? You look like you're in a hurry, Scotch."
"It's normal! I have Monkey D. Luffy and a fire mage behind me! Exactly, couldn't you…?"
" ROOM ! "
Suddenly swinging his sword, Law cut the giant into two pieces, separating him at his pelvis.
"What...?" The yeti said, before the top part crashed to the ground.
Letting go of Nami, he knocked her down. Arriving then, Luffy hoisted himself to the top of the mountain, and could thus see Scotch's lower body collapsing not far from him.
" What ? "
"Who is he?" Natsu questioned, appearing in turn.
Ignoring their presence, Law glanced at the upper Scotch, who roared.
" How dare you ? "
Immediately grabbing his gun, he roared.
"You will pay for it, traitor."
But already, Law had jumped in his direction, his hands in the direction of his heart.
" COUNTER SHOCK ! "
Like a defibrillator, electricity shot out of his fingers and produced a violent electric shock that knocked the giant out. Screaming in pain, the yeti then fell backwards and collapsed for good, to the ground.
" What…? He killed his buddy too? " Natsu wondered.
"Tra-o!" Luffy shouted. "Hey, you came to help us save Nami, right? Thank you very much."
"Idiot." Nami shouted. "You forget I'm in this body because of him! I doubt he means us any good."
" She's right. " Natsu said, advancing towards Law. "Hey, you! Tell us what you want from us! And also who do you work for! And I would like to know the relationship between this island and Kaido."
"Kaido?" Law repeated, arching an eyebrow.
"Don't play the innocent." Natsu roared. "What do you want from us, damn it?"
"I was just thinking." Law affirmed.
"Think about what?" Luffy questioned him.
"Hey, could someone untie me?" Nami wanted to know.
"For you pirates, it seems like you came here by chance! And, almost at the same time, a band of mages also appeared on this island! Strange, considering that the latter contains a weapon capable of devastate an entire country with the snap of a finger."
"Huh?" Natsu wondered, melting Nami's chains. "A weapon? What are you talking about?"
"Never mind! More importantly, this island also contains something that can be used to trash the entire 'New World'! Since you are new here, I doubt you know how to survive in this part. of the world! In fact, it's very simple! Either you become a Yonko or you work under the orders of a Yonko or you challenge the Yonkos."
Staring at Luffy, he affirmed.
"You're not one to want to work under someone's orders, are you?"
"Huh? Yeah, why?"
"In that case, I'm offering you an alliance, with me." Law shouted.
"What? A alliance?" Nami wondered.
"Yes! An alliance so that you can bring down one of the four Yonko! Kaido!"
"Kai…Kaido?" The trio repeated in front of him.
