-Chapter Two Hundred and Forty-Three-
"That swordsman is more ruthless then I imagined" Kaku frowned. "How cruel, turning his own partner into a weapon" he muttered.
"Ha! Nah, he's just desperate, they're trying to buy time" the wolf chuckled, finding great amusement in what his opponents were doing.
"Zoro, your trusty blade is prepared at last!" Sniper King proclaimed in a deep voice, sounding far more confident and calm than he had been earlier. "My heart is tempered in steel, attack them without reservation! I shall not falter, to victory!" he declared.
"That's more like it, Mighty Nose Storm" Zoro nodded. "Killer Attack: Allure!"
"Allure?" Sniper King and I curiously inqured.
"Oh!" Sniper King suddenly exclaimed as if understanding what the swordsman meant. "That captures the beauty of Nose Storm perfectly! I admit, I am quite alluring—excellent work, Zoro!" he happily exclaimed before growing confused as the swordsman suddenly raised him up and gently waved him around.
"Oh..." I said, now understanding what the moss haired man was doing. "That's a bit cruel, don't you think, sweetie?" I sweat dropped.
"Is he asking us to come over there and kill him?" Kaku questioned, tilting his head as he watched how the swordsman continued to wave the long-nosed pirate around as if he was nothing more than bait.
"Wait! What are you—"
"Don't mind if I do!" the wolf grinned as he cut Sniper King off, shooting forward towards the two.
"Not if I get there first!" Kaku frowned as he also shot forward to surpass the wolf in an attempt to get to the prey first. Both were quick to dodge out of the way though the minute Zoro slashed at them with one of his swords when they were close enough for him to do so.
"Sniper King, stop crying! You're alive, aren't you?! And Zoro, stop trying to get him killed!" I snapped over at the two as Sniper King laid sprawled out on the ground, now nothing more than a sobbing mess.
"Dammit! I can't believe a fell for that stupid trick!" the wolf embarrassingly growled.
"Now he's just using his friend as bait" Kaku frowned.
"So, when you said "allure," you meant the kind you catch fish with!" Sniper King cried. "What am I to you, huh? Just bait? Not even a sword anymore!" he snapped, pressing his nose against the swordsman's face.
"One more time, Killer Attack: Allure" Zoro said, ignoring the long-nosed pirate.
"Have you no shame?!" Sniper King cried.
"No, no he doesn't" I shook my head.
"By the way, I think you got this whole Killer Attack thing totally wrong!" he snapped as Zoro held him up once more while the two animals charged at them. "The only one dying is me!" he cried.
"Tempest Kick: Sky Slicer!" Kaku spun his body around as I was quick to drop to my stomach while Zoro and Sniper King jumped out of the way of the deadly gushes of air that were kicked around the room.
"Where the hell are you, Chopper?!" Usopp cried. "Stay back, leave us alone! I'm…I'm warning you, I've got eight thousand men under my control!" he lied in a desperate attempt to get the men to stay back. "Actually, they're my friend Usopp's men, but still—they listen to me and they've already surrounded this island, so you should just surrender while you can!" he babbled.
"Killing eight thousand guys sounds a lot more fun than what we're doing now" the wolf grinned. "Go on and give them a call, let's do this!" he excitedly urged, encouraging the sharpshooter to continue with his lie.
"You moron, I've never heard a more obvious lie in all of my life" Kaku frowned. "I don't know how it's even possible, but you're even dumber than I thought you were—when you act that stupid, you make our whole team look bad!" he scowled.
"Who's the stupid one here?! Of course, I knew he was lying, I was just having a little fun!" the wolf sneered. "You're so serious and uptight, you can't even tell when someone's making a frickin joke!" he frowned.
"There's nothing wrong with taking things seriously" Kaku argued.
"There is when you're as tall as a damn giraffe and jokes go over your head, you long neck loser!" and just like that, they were both back to insulting one another—growling as they got into each other's faces.
"Looks like my original plan is working" Sniper King whispered.
"We'll settle this one later" Kaku huffed.
"Yeah, the Buster Call is fast approaching after all" the wolf agreed.
"And we've already wasted enough time here as it is" the giraffe said.
"Let's put our differences aside for the time being" the wolf suggested.
"We can argue after we kill them!" the two nodded in agreement.
"That seems like an overreaction, let's just calm down!" Sniper King whimpered.
"We are calm!" the two snapped.
"Clearly" I grumbled as I carefully sat back up. "You're both just the picture-perfect example of calm" I sarcastically remarked.
"Tempest Kick!" Kaku started to spin his body around quickly, the force of the wind that came from the attack was enough to make me squint my eyes as I watched Sniper King accidentally drop the sword he was holding.
"Grab it!" Zoro snapped, running towards the fallen weapon that the sharpshooter was quick to scoop back up.
"Finger Pistol!" the wolf and Kaku both attacked the swordsman and sharpshooter at the same time.
"This is real, they're done toying with us—don't drop the sword!" Zoro frowned after dodging the attack, quick was he to also dodge the next set of attacks that the two animals sent their way. "We are in big trouble here, we don't have time to wait for that key, we need to get these cuffs off right now!" he growled.
"Chopper, where the hell are you?! Save me!" Sniper King cried just as the wall behind us was suddenly destroyed by a very...large...monster. Its roar shook the entire room as we all stared up at it in shock, but what caught my attention about the beast was the familiar-looking hat that rested gently on top of his head.
"C-Chopper?" I quietly stuttered out as my hands moved up to cover my mouth in shock at the sight before me. Surely this gigantic monster before us wasn't our cute, little doctor.
"How many of these Zoan Type power holders do they got on this damn island?" Zoro grounded out.
"W-wait! Are you sure that's another CP9 agent?" Sniper King shakily asked. "He looks kind of familiar for some reason" he lowly whined.
"What?! Chopper?!" the two shouted as they finally came to the same conclusion as me.
"C-Chopper, honey, what happened to you?" I shakily asked the monstrous-looking reindeer, worry flooding my system.
"Hang on, Chopper, it's us!" Zoro called up to the reindeer when he took a step forward.
"Please, Chopper! Don't kill me!" Sniper King begged as the two now ran from the reindeer as soon as he smashed his fist down onto the ground.
"How do we know that thing really is Chopper?! Why the hell doesn't he recognize us?!" Zoro asked as he and the sharpshooter ran.
"I got no idea! But that is Chopper, who else has antlers and wears a hat like that?!" Sniper King cried.
"Chopper, what happened to you? Don't you know it's us?" I worriedly asked, pushing myself up on shaky legs as I took a small step towards the reindeer. "We're on your side, we're your friends!" I shouted up at him, hoping that my voice would be loud enough to reach him.
"Then what are we supposed to do here? You think he has the key?" Zoro asked as he came to a skidded halt near Kaku and the wolf.
"No, but what does it matter? Let's face it, we're going to die!" Sniper King cried.
"I don't know, something doesn't seem right, he looks like he's the one about to kneel over and die" Zoro said as I shakily scanned the state that the reindeer was in. Quick to take note of his quivering body and heavy breathing as if he was in agonizing pain, which he probably was because I can't imagine how much strain this...this new transformation of his was putting on him. "Seems like all the life is being sucked right out of him" the swordsman remarked.
"Chopper...what did you do, buddy?" I quietly asked, taking another step closer to him. "C-Chopper..." I repeated, heart twisting up the longer I listened to the slight wheeze he had with every breath he drew as he seemed to just stand there as if he didn't exactly know where he was.
"Well, what's wrong with him?" Sniper King worriedly asked.
"I have no idea, but being in that form must use up an enormous amount of energy" Zoro answered.
"So, then what? Huh? How are we supposed to help him like this—and what about those two?" Sniper King asked, motioning towards the two animals behind them. "And where's the key? Where's the damn key?!" he frantically shouted.
"I don't know about the key, but I can guess what happened to him" Zoro said. "He probably put his life on the line fighting against someone incredibly strong, and when it still wasn't enough, he turned into that" he assumed.
"And now?" Sniper King questioned.
"Who is this enormous beast and why is he interrupting our fight? Especially when the Buster Call is right around the corner" Kaku frowned.
"He's a damn pain!" the wolf growled. "Must be a part of their dumbass crew!" he sneered.
"If they're in our way..." Kaku said.
"Then we eliminate them" the wolf finished for him as Chopper released another roar that shook the entire room.
"He looks a bit sick" the giraffe remarked.
"Then that just makes him easier prey!" the wolf laughed.
"You will not lay a hand on him!" I snapped, clenching my fists as I harshly glared at the wolf who continued to laugh.
"What are you going to do about it, little girl? You're already pretty banged up from your previous fight, right? Who was it that did that to you?" he grinned as he scanned over my disheveled appearance. "Kalifa? Fukurou? Kumadori? Zach?" I clenched my jaw as I watched how the wolf's grin only seemed to grow the longer he watched how his words got under my skin.
"They're going after Chopper!" Sniper King cried.
"Straighten your back!" Zoro ordered. "You are still my sword!"
"Whoa! Hold on—we're doing this again?!" Sniper King asked.
"Thirty-Six Caliber Phoenix!" Zoro slashed his swords down at the two animals that were once again quick to dodge the attack.
"You bastard!" Kaku cursed.
"Step aside, you guys!" Franky suddenly shouted as he came rushing into the room through the giant hole that Chopper had made.
"It's you!" Zoro exclaimed. "Hey, hold it! What do you think you're doing? That deer monster is on our side!" he snapped when he saw that the blue haired man was now beginning to take aim at our friend with his hand—with everything that was happening, I couldn't even bring myself to be shocked or baffled by the way a small pipe seemed to poke out of the palm of his hand while his forearm seemed to grow bigger.
"I know what I'm doing! Shut up and move!" Franky ordered.
"I swear, if you hurt Chopper, I'll kill you!" I sneered.
"This is the only way there is to deal with him!" Franky argued. "Power holders have one weakness—I'll knock him into the sea! Sorry, pal, but this is for your own good" he huffed as the monstrous reindeer roared once more.
"What?! If he falls into the sea, he'll drown!" I cried out, eyes widening as Franky shot a huge gush of air towards Chopper which caused the reindeer to stumble back. His body now breaking through one of the other walls which sent him falling out of the tower.
"That's the last straw, Franky!" Sniper King snapped as the blue haired man followed after the falling reindeer, jumping out of the tower with him. "You're not going to get away from this—nobody treats my friends this way!" he angrily cried as he attempted to follow the man.
"Skylar, wait!" Zoro shouted as I went sprinting towards the two, ready to follow them out of the tower—Chopper couldn't swim, the minute he hits the water below he was a dead man. I couldn't just let him die like that.
"It's okay, you guys, we came up with this plan together" I skidded to a halt upon hearing Nami as I quickly swung my head towards the direction of her voice.
"What?!" I shouted.
