Thanks for the 2.1 million views
Thanks for an amazing 9 years.
I'll try to do 4-6 episodes a Ch to still get the once-a-month update so be on the lookout around episode 1,025 as I ended this at 920.
The poll's closed and Yes won 100 and No 24. I apologize to the 24 but the majority spoke. In an hour or a little later, I'll put up the next story poll that'll go down when Ninja in the Web or Maelstrom Avatar's done as I'm in the 3rd season for both.
LXXXIX.
Last Time.
Luffy then brought both arms and hit Kaido on the nose. "Gomu Gomu no... Gurizurī Magunamu! (Gum-Gum Grizzly Magnum!)"
Kaido hit the ground and transformed back as Naruto landed beside Luffy who had Haki flowing off him. Naruto then cracked his neck as they stared at Kaido who then reached for his club, sat up, and hiccuped showing he was at least buzzed off of sake. He stood and wobbly walked to the two. Luffy then went into Gia Fōsu (Gear Fourth) as Naruto opened Kyōmon (Gate Of Wonder) and dashed to Kaido for an attack.
They punched him into a building having Kaido plant his feet then pushed them back. Luffy kicked him in the stomach as Naruto punched him in the face sending the Yonko (Emperor) back. Luffy then attacked with a fury of punches having Kaido stay standing before getting hit in the jaw and sent flying to the ground.
Suddenly, the sky darkened as energy in the shape of a dragon came off Kaido who infused his club with Haki. The two pirates dashed over just as Kaido swung his club hitting the two having blood fly off into the air Naruto and Luffy were sent flying into the air and then fell, blood pouring around their heads as they went back to normal.
Kaido then turned to see the two, while knocked out, still had glares. "They're still glaring at me." He said and saw they were still breathing. "Straw Hat yelled he was going to be king… What kind of king are you now?!"
Now.
Act Two Start.
Oden's Castle.
Kiku got on the mountain and came across a large hole in the ground. "KIKU!"
She looked around as she heard her name called before going into the hole and looked down. She saw everyone who was at the caste was in it on Chopper's Gādo Pointo (Guard Point) waving at her before sinking. Sanji grabbed the woman and jumped up to land on the ground.
After rescuing the others, Shinobu explained she used her ninjutsu to create a sinkhole to survive Kaido's blast. Afterward, Kiku then explained what happened to Luffy and Naruto.
Udon.
Naruto woke up in the courtyard of the prison wearing only the grey underclothes for his samurai armor that has metal coins on it in several places as well; as his head wrapped up.
(A/N: The non-upgraded Ghost Armor)
He was then pulled forward revealing his arms are shackled together and walked beside Luffy who also had his head bandaged. They glared at the guards before one tried to attack before a fish skeleton went into his neck from a cell. The two pirates were pulled again as one guard berated another for not removing the bones from a prisoner's fish dinner for the reason that he could use them as weapons. When they got to the end of the building, two guards opened the door and threw them inside. "You'll stay here until your spirits are broken and you bend the knee to Kaido." They laughed before closing the door.
"Damn it!"
The two looked to see Eustass Kid beside them. "I'll get even with you… Kaido!"
Luffy and Kid spoke at the same time as Naruto sat up while Kid and Luffy noticed each other.
Later, Atamayama Kuri.
At the edge of a cliff, Kiku, and Kin'emon with Carrot, Wanda who was wearing a pink kimono stood with Kin'emon and watched Duke fighting against Shutenmaru to get him to help with the fight against Kaido. As they clashed, they had shock waves come off with Kiku blocking airwaves that came towards the others. "He's as strong as Dogstorm-sama!" Carrot spoke as she stood beside Wanda.
"He's giving Dogstorm-sama a tough time… How impressive."
The two continued fighting before Duke spoke up. "Why Ashura? Why don't you want to use that tremendous power for the Kuri people that Oden-sama used to love?!"
"He's dead! Why did you guys come back here after all these years?!" Ashura asked as they clashed in a test of strength.
"We came back to accomplish Oden-sama's dream! But you-gara have forgotten what happened to Oden-sama, and are just wielding your sword at your whim!"
"Urusai! (Shut up!)" Ashura pushed the Mink back and dashed at him to start clashing again. "Don't talk as if you know everything!"
"If there's something you want to say… Say it!"
Suddenly, a stream of fire got between them forcing the two to look to the side to see Kin'emon sheathing his sword. "That's enough… Dogstorm… Ashura!"
Ashura sheathed his sword and walked away passing the group before Kiku spoke. "I thought you were better than this, Ashura-san!"
"Kiku! I watched the Land of Wano for two decades since Oden-sama died! You guys suddenly coming back shouting whatever you like. I won't listen! You should be thankful I don't rob you blind!" He said looking at them. "You should remember! This is how we were even back then! I was fascinated by that man, Kozuki Oden, and would risk my life for him as a samurai!"
"But I never became a servant for the Kozuki clan!" Ashura then looked at Momonosuke. "Right? Momonosuke!"
"Don't you remember what kind of man I was?!" Kin'emon asked walking to Momonosuke. "I won't give up! I'll make you join us!"
"Don't assume everyone will be thrilled to see the return of the Kozuki Clan's samurai!" Ashura then walked again having his men follow. "You guys abandoned the country for 20 years! There is no way to compensate for all those years!"
The group turned to leave themselves before Raizo appeared in a cloud of smoke. "Sorry to interrupt you." He said bowing to them. "I was able to locate Luffy and Naruto-dono. They're in the Excavation Labor Camp at Udon."
"I thought so! Then, c I count on you to handle that?" Kin'emon asked the ninja who nodded.
"Understood!"
Raizo disappeared in a cloud of smoke at that.
Udon Labor Camp.
Naruto pushed a large cart with a large square stone on it with Luffy on the other side as well as prisoners in horizontal striped prison yukatas. Later after doing it four more times they went to a hut where they got one dumpling each as the guard grinned. "For five blocks you get one millet dumpling!"
Naruto ate his dumplings as Luffy brought his up to his mouth, Kid ran by holding a block with one hand. "Out of my way!"
He then knocked the dumpling out of Luffy's hand at that and stepped on it. Luffy glared before running to follow suit as Naruto sighed. "At least it'll be training."
Flower Capital.
In the Flower Capital, the disguised Star Hat Crew were eating ramen made by Sanji who was disguised as a chef before a person carrying a bag of newspaper yelled out about a ghost appearing. Franky yelled out for one before using his small hands to hold it and read about the ghost at a graveyard.
"Could it be Brook?" Thane asked as he sat beside Nojiko, Mai, and Emiko. "I mean people do meet at those places to talk as it'll be quiet."
"No, this is a guy on this poster."
Thane stood up as Tate was gnawing on a bone and saw a drawing man smiling with his long hair in a ponytail.
Wanted: Hitokiri Kamazo
"Hitokiri Kamazo?" Robin asked looking at the poster.
"'There are reports of a killing spree at the eighth block of district two'!" Franky read the report on the side of the picture. "The killer is Hitokiri Kamazo'…"
Up at a house, Nami and Shinobu are spying on officials in the rafters. Suddenly, as Shinobu was teaching Nami how to spy, a blade came up through the wood scaring them and had the two-run as the blade came up behind them.
"Who are you?! Who are you?! Who are you?! Who are you?!"
"There are intruders in the attic!"
"Get them!"
The two made it out and ran towards where Sanji's cooking and saw the long line for his stand.
Onigashima.
"Hey, Jack…"
Jack sitting at a table looked to his left to see two men.
The first is a towering man at 613 cm tall, with a well-muscled, broad-shouldered frame and long limbs. He also has large, black-feathered wings on his back reaching down to his knees with fire behind his head. He's wearing a dark, form-fitting leather uniform that bares no skin. Covering his head and neck area is a full-faced leather mask, which leaves only two holes for his eyes and has a zipper going up the front of the neck, flanked by two blue, gray-studded leather bands.
The mask around the eyes is black, with a trio of blue strips below, also beset with studs, forming a triangle to mark off the nose, mouth, and chin section, and to the sides of which is blue leather of flame-like shape. Topping the eyes are blue-lensed, gray-rimmed goggle pieces, and on either side of the mask, connecting with a studded base is a large and black, horn-like spike.
Five more such spikes, only smaller, are located further on top upon a blue band that runs coronally into another one positioned like a headband, and crossing yet another that goes sagittal, with air holes in-between. His upper-body wear includes a dark-blue, double-breasted leather jacket that has ten gold buttons and notch lapels with square, red, gold-edged skull patches sewn on.
Running straight down each side of the jacket's waist are two columns of yet more studs, and flat, two-part shoulder pads that are black and double-trimmed with studs are present on each side, down the upper arms with three curved spikes atop either. The tight sleeves of the jacket are cuffless, end in black gloves, and each bears an additional, stud-covered pair of leather bands above thinner strips, plus three very small, white spikes above the wrists.
Below the jacket, he has a white shirt whose ruffled neckline emerges from under the jacket's lapels. He also has on dark-blue pants matching the jacket, with three studded leather bands wrapping around each upper leg and a ring of the same material located on either knee. The pants go inside black, high-heeled boots, the high shafts of which end folded over, in studded jags.
King The Conflagration, All-Star. Bounty: $1,390,000,000.
The second man is a massive, round-figured man with light skin. He's standing at 612 cm tall, and is top-heavy, with thick, tapering arms yet, compared to his upper self, smallish legs. His head is hunched, undistinguished from his neck due to its plumpness, with a small face. His eyes are hidden by sunglasses with blue lenses and gray, oval rims, which instead of having temples are strapped on by black tapes that go around his head in such a way as to form an X both on his forehead and occiput.
He has no visible eyebrows, a small hook nose, and a small mouth, sporting navy lipstick, and is smoking a big cigar. His hair is blond: a thick, queue-like braid through eight ties, with a stinger-shaped ending tuft, comes out the back of his head, which is otherwise bald. Additionally, he dons a Fu Manchu mustache whose tendrils widen as they droop to his chest.
A stitched scar runs curvilinearly from his right chest up to the shoulder. On his upper right arm is a dark blue tattoo consisting of his crew's Jolly Roger above QUEEN in block capitals. His left arm, up to the shoulder, is cybernetic in gray and golden color, composed of metallic rings, bolted plating, wiring, and even a small pressure gauge, with the corresponding hand covered in an orange glove.
He's wearing large, very high-waisted overalls that uniformly reach just below the chest, are thickly, vertically striped black-and-white, and held up by suspenders connecting with 8-shaped, golden clasps on the frontal top edge; a piece of cloth striped the same is integrated into his metal arm. As for footwear, he has simple, brown ankle boots.
Queen The Plague All-Star. Bounty: $1,320,000,000.
"The offering from Kuri's too light," King said as Jack looked up.
"I'm sorry, Big Brothers!"
"We don't need another burden…" King said before thumbing at Queen. "Just this baka (Idiot) Queen is enough."
Queen was messing with gear in his hand at that. "That's right! Just this piece of scum King is enough! Understood, Jack the Stooge?!"
Jack just looked down at that before King looked at Queen. "And you, Queen! Why is it taking so long to break those gakis' (Brats') fighting spirits?! You moron!"
"Urusai, (Shut up,) you sadistic pervert!"
Udon Labor Camp.
Naruto, Kid, and Luffy finished loading up a ship with the rocks before going to eat. Naruto shared his with the elderly prisoners before looking at one that caught his eye. He is a small, elderly man with a cyan tuft of hair and a goatee that resemble small flames. He has a blue tattoo covering his shoulders and upper back that resembles a vest with pink flower patterns and a border.
He's wearing the black and white striped yukata undone above the waist, leaving his upper body bare aside from a small orange scarf. He also has small round orange glasses and warabi sandals.
Hyogoro Of The Flower.
Naruto saw guards coming in to take the food only to knock them out with a blast of Haki then he, Luffy, and Kidd attacked the few that stayed conscious. "Janpingu Kattā! (Jumping Cutter!)"
Naruto jumped up and wrapped his right arm around the last guard's head and dropped down. He sat up for a moment before getting to his feet. Walking outside, they saw the vice-warden yelling that they ate all the food.
He is a very large man with short, dark spiky brown hair and a hippopotamus muzzle. He's wearing a pale yellow bowler hat, a pair of red shades and a pair of very large light blue trousers held up by two violet suspenders and does not wear a shirt. He's also wearing a frilly garment on his shoulders with hippo's feet designed on them and brown gloves, brown boots, and also has flame-shaped tattoos on his arms near the wrists.
The most interesting trait is his legs have become infused with the bottom lip of an extremely large pink hippo, causing him to effectively sit inside the hippo's mouth. The hippo only has a pair of hind legs as Dobon's legs are the forelegs, and it's wearing dark pants with a belt around its hindquarters.
Dobon, A Vice-Warden, Headliner, and the Hippo Smile Fruit Holder.
As he was yelling, the hippo closed its mouth before Luffy walked up. And was eaten as well as Kid before the hippo shot into the air. Naruto just stared at the hippo and was attacked from the inside before falling with blood coming out of its nose. Dobon fell knocked out as well while Kid and Luffy walked out and up to Naruto who was standing beside Hyogoro.
One guard ran up to yell only for Naruto to grab his head and slam it down. The man then got on his hands and knees before he was punt kicked by Naruto having a crack echo. "Panto Kikku! (Punt Kick!)"
The Next Morning, Flower Capital.
"Who permits you to do business on this land?"
As Sanji was cooking, he looked up to see three men standing in front of the crowd.
The first is a man of slightly above average height. His face is extremely long and thin, and he has violet, shoulder-length wavy hair that is gathered into a topknot. He's wearing a checker-patterned kimono underneath a red and orange violet coat with a character written on both its shoulders.
The second is a man of slightly above average height. His face is extremely long and thin, and he has violet, shoulder-length wavy hair that is gathered into a topknot. He wears a checker-patterned kimono underneath a red and orange violet coat with a character written on both its shoulders.
The third man is very large and hairy. He has bushy light hair, long sideburns, and stubble on his lip and chin. He's wearing a dark kimono with flower patterns on it, and the kimono is open down to the waist, exposing his bare chest and sunglasses.
Kuni, Kaku, Suke Kyoshiro Family.
"We're the Kyoshiro Family and this is our turf… Unless you pay us you're not allowed to run a shop here!" Kuni said crossing his arms.
"Oh, is that so?" Sanji asked stirring his pot.
"Those people… Maybe they're…" Robin trailed off having the others loo up.
Usopp who had joined looked at her after they all looked at the men. "Do you know something about them?"
"Hai, (Yes,) I went to a man named Kyoshiro's banquet hall the other day," Robin explained with a nod. "He's an arrogant samurai and apparently a yakuza boss. And they're probably his underlings."
"Oi, (Hey,) can't you hear me?!" Kuni asked putting his hands on the counter. "I said you gotta pay up!"
"Why?" Sanji asked as he continued to stir.
Kaku leaned down and smiled at that. "Why? Because we can't help you even if someone comes to attack your shop."
"I don't need your help because I'm strong." Sanji smiled before giving a pink-haired little girl a bowl of his soba.
"Arigato! (Thank you!)" She said before running off.
The men knocked the food on the ground having Sanji look back while Suke knocked the bowl out of the girl's hands. Sanji kicked Kaku and Suke to Thane and Franky having them knock the two out as Sanji kicked Kuni in the face after kicking through his sword. Sanji then fixed the soba again as the woman who trained Robin and the other women appeared.
She played her instrument as she explained about Komurasaki, the only Oiran in the country. They heard a crowd before she explained that was for her before turning to Robin saying she's been invited to the castle as well. "So, let's go!"
"Hai! (Yes!) I can't wait!" Robin spoke with a small smile before nodding to the others and left with them.
Udon Labor Camp.
The three pirates continued to work by breaking boulders while the prisoners excitedly talked about what they did the day before. Hyo then thanked Naruto and Luffy as they saved him from being beaten by Dobon. "Don't mention It Ji-san. (Old Man.)" Naruto said before breaking a boulder with his pickaxe. Luffy tried to give Hyo a handful of receipts to use to get dumplings having him wave his hand not accepting them. "We can always get more." Naruto finished as Luffy gave the man the papers.
"Luffy-dono, Naruto-dono."
The two looked t see Raizo appearing by them using a pickaxe as well. "Raizo! How did it go?!" Luffy asked walking to him.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Um… The key to the Kairōseki (Sea Prism Stone) cuffs… I found it, but, um… It's under tight security. In addition to a guard, they keep it in a Kairōseki (Sea Prism Stone) box!" The ninja explained as they all continued to not raise suspicion. "But…! I'll steal it at any cost. Please give me a little more time."
"OK! We got it!" Luffy grinned before Raizo nodded and left in a cloud of smoke. "Yosh! (Alright!)"
Luffy and Naruto started breaking boulders again with new energy before wiping the sweat from their brows.
To Be Continued.
A/N: Thanks for reading and let me know of any mistakes.
Thanks for an amazing 9 years.
I'll try to do 4-6 episodes a Ch to still get the once-a-month update so be on the lookout around episode 1,025 as I ended this at 920.
Also, I put Act One End on the previous Ch as IDK when the ep that act one ended. But looked at Act Two ending and that's Ep 956 so the Ch near that ep might be a little longer if I see I'm an ep or two before ending and just went ahead to add it to end Act Two on that Ch.
The poll's closed and Yes won 100 and No 24. I apologize to the 24 but the majority spoke. In an hour or a little later, I'll put up the next story poll that'll go down when Ninja in the Web or Maelstrom Avatar's done as I'm in the 3rd season for both.
Next to be updated will be most likely Hero Rising this Friday as I forgot the season's ending on Thursday but I will try to have Ninja In The Web up before.
Nothing else to say.
Talk To You Later,
Lone Wolf Out.🐺
