Sabaody Archipelago (2/2)

The Heart Pirates are still fighting off the remaining Marines at the auction house, tearing through them to escape. However, they come across the Kid Pirates, most of whom are already wounded due to Kuma.

The Shichibukai immediately identifies and attacks Law, but Law manages to dodge the attack. With the Marines starting to close in from behind, Kid and Law, despite their mutual dislike of each other, tell Kuma they are leaving and prepare to face him.

In Grove 8, Peterman has been thrashed by the Straw Hats and the Rosy Life Riders for his earlier abduction of Camie.

After giving back Camie's backpack, they depart promising to aid them 'till they leave the island. The Straw Hats then head back to Shakky's Bar to treat Hachi's gun wound.

As they do so, they talk with Rayleigh where he reveals his relation to Gol D. Roger, much to their surprise (Hachi apparently knew this too, but did not tell them since they just needed a coater). Rayleigh also reveals how he met Hachi (the Fish-Man had saved Rayleigh's life when he was a kid, and they had remained friends 'till Hachi joined Arlong's crew, then named the Sun Pirates). Sanji then questions how he could still be alive if Roger's crew was captured, to which Rayleigh reveals that Roger actually turned himself in.

The government just made it seem that way to show their strength to the public. Rayleigh goes on to tell them the reason why. It was because four years before he was executed, Roger was diagnosed with an incurable disease.

His crew, however, had come across Crocus at the entrance of the Grand Line and asked him to join them on Roger's final journey to keep his disease in check.

Finally, after three years, they had managed to conquer the Grand Line. This surprises the Straw Hats, Brook especially, since Crocus did reveal to them he was a pirate doctor for a time.

Rayleigh even tells them that the reason Crocus joined was to find a certain pirate crew, which the Straw Hats figure must have been the Rumbar Pirates, bringing tears to Brook's eyes sockets.

Rayleigh continues, stating that after they conquered the sea, Roger was dubbed the Pirate King.

However, the title was meaningless since he was about to die. But Roger enjoyed it anyway, as he was a man who loved doing everything in grand style.

Eventually, Roger disbanded his crew who silently went their separate ways, fates unknown.

One year later, Roger turned himself in to the Marines who decided to make a public execution of him to throw fear into pirates around the world.

However, Roger had other plans; his last words to Rayleigh being "I ain't gonna die, partner".

On the fateful day of his execution, Roger made his famous speech to the world which, in turn, created the current age of piracy.

The Straw Hats are astonished by the story. Rayleigh then tells the group about Shanks and Buggy's apprenticeship aboard Roger's ship, the former of which ran into Rayleigh ten years earlier and told Rayleigh about Luffy, claiming that he had met a kid that said the same things as their captain did.

meanwhile,harbor at Grove 27, where a pirate crew is about to set off. Before they can do so, they spot a ship on the horizon that suddenly fires a cannonball with a person actually standing on top of it.

The ball lands in the harbor amidst the pirates and the figure, revealed to be Kizaru, awaits orders from his Den Den Mushi.

Back at Shakky's Bar, Rayleigh congratulates Luffy for making it this far into the Grand Line and offers to do the coating job for free, much to the Straw Hats' pleasure. Robin then asks him about the Void Century, telling Rayleigh about a note written by Roger in the Poneglyph in Skypiea. Rayleigh replies that the Roger Pirates did indeed find out the whole history, though he advises her to continue looking for it on her own.

Rayleigh says that maybe she could reach different conclusions than those that they reached.

Still, he offers to reveal it to her but Robin politely turns him down, agreeing with his earlier advice.

Rayleigh also reveals that Roger could not decipher everything like the genius Clover or the other scholars from Ohara.

Roger just "could hear the voice of all things". Usopp then asks Robin if she would want to let an opportunity like this get away and starts to question Rayleigh about One Piece.

Luffy stops him however, demanding that the mystery of the treasure remain hidden since countless pirates were risking their lives just to search for it.

He then threatens to quit being a pirate if any of the crew asked Rayleigh about it, stating "I DON'T WANT TO GO ON A BORING ADVENTURE LIKE THAT!!!".

Usopp apologizes for his actions before Rayleigh asks Luffy if he can really conquer the Grand Line.

Luffy replies that he does not really intend to conquer it, only that the person with the most freedom in the ocean would be the Pirate King, which brings a smile to Rayleigh and Shakky's faces.

Rayleigh then tells the crew he will have their ship coated in three days which, until then, the crew will have to avoid trouble.

Thus, the Straw Hats decide their best bet is to split up and draw attention away from the shop. Shakky gives each member a Vivre Card so they can find their way back to Rayleigh once the coating is finished and Rayleigh decides to move the Thousand Sunny to a safer location.

With that, they bid Hachi, Camie, Pappag, and Shakky farewell for the time being and head back into the groves. Luffy suggests to hide in the theme park though the others (save for Chopper and Brook) reject this idea.

However, the Marines are already hot on the heels of the Straw Hat team.

At Grove 27, a warship approaches, causing a panic. As it prepares to make landfall, it fires off a round of cannonballs.

Riding atop one, Admiral Kizaru descends on the grove in a frightening explosion and terrifies all the nearby pirates of the lawless area in the vicinity by his arrival.

Kizaru announces his arrival on the Sabaody Archipelago back to Marine Headquarters through a Black Den Den Mushi on his wrist and requests a response.

In Grove 27, pirates are trying their best to distance themselves from Kizaru whom we're finally introduced to properly.

One pirate tries to shoot the admiral but the shot does not even affect him as it phases through the admiral.

Kizaru then appears in front of them trying to ask them where he can find someone named Sentomaru but the pirates run away in fear.

Kizaru then attacks them with light coming from his foot, which he kicks outwards.

This not only passes in between the pirates, it also topples a mangrove in the process much to the disapproval of his troops.

Although this terrifies the two pirates, Apoo, who is nearby, does not seem impressed by his power.

A few more marines encounter and surround Bege, but he informs them that they've already lost.

Kizaru then comes across Hawkins, whose crew wish for him to run. He calmly tells them that he is not destined to die on that day.

Back with the Straw Hats, as Usopp tries to convince Luffy not to go back to the amusement park, a figure stands before them prompting Luffy to ask who he is.

but the figure just it hand and

Kuma's beam is fired upon the Straw Hats while Luffy dodges.

Usopp, Franky, and Brook are in shock that Kuma shoots from his hands. He fires another laser and nearly hits the three, forcing them to hide.

Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji charge at Kuma and they combine their attacks, knocking down Kuma.

Luffy begins to realize Kuma looks different. Zoro knows that Kuma would have dodged their attacks and that the Kuma they are fighting is actually a fake. "Kuma" rises again.

Meanwhile, Urouge tries a Retribution punch on the "Kuma" he is facing and seems to have an effect.

Hawkins judges that fate is inescapable as "Kuma" shoots a laser at Urouge, knocking him down.

X Drake realizes that the fake Kuma is using lasers like Kizaru's light beams.

Kizaru recognizes Drake and dares him to fight the Pacifista, the cyborg that resembles Kuma.

Drake changes himself into a dinosaur and bites down on the Pacifista with no effect.

The laser grazes Drake, forcing him to revert to normal. He also sees how the Pacifista can bleed. Kizaru then reminds Urouge and the others that they need to fight him as well.

Hawkins then changes himself into a scarecrow with Demon Face and tries to claw the admiral who warps and blasts a blinding light. Kizaru then shoots lasers through Hawkins and more voodoo dolls fall out.

Kizaru then prepares a final light kick, but then Apoo plays some music on his body to distract the admiral. A loud noise seemingly severs Kizaru's arm and fires an intense sound blast at him.

Apoo then runs off, but the admiral reassembles himself. He then chases down Apoo using the Yata Mirror and blasts him with a lightspeed kick.

Kizaru then kicks Drake quickly as well and fires a powerful shot at Hawkins. Walking to the wounded Hawkins, Kizaru prepares to execute the pirate when his Den Den Mushi starts ringing.

He answers and hears Sentomaru on the other end, demanding why he had no contact.

Sentomaru reminds his "uncle" that the black Den Den Mushi is for intercepting calls only and informs him that the Straw Hats are fleeing.

The fake Kuma Luffy and his party are fighting continues to overwhelm them and withstanding their attacks.

The Pacifista then fires an intense blast at the swordsman who is injured greatly.

Sanji knows that Zoro hasn't had time to recover and knows that the Pacifista isn't the Bartholomew Kuma they are fighting and wants to leave immediately.

unable to scratch the Pacifista. Zoro moves forward and attempts an attack, but then, Chopper bombards a Blizzard Rose onto the Pacifista.

Franky then uses a Strong Hammer to deflect a blast and punches with Franky Boxing before being knocked back.

Robin then uses a Spider Net to catch her friend. Brook climbs a tree and attempts to drop a Swallow Bond en Avant on the Pacifista with no effect.

Usopp then shoots an Atlas Comet, stunning the Pacifista and the groups run off.

Suddenly, the Pacifista falls down as explosives seem to have effect. Franky realizes the Pacifista is modified, Nami tries to run but is marked until Robin uses a Shock to pound the cyborg.

The navigator then charges and fired a Thunder Lance Tempo, which only makes the cyborg fire wildly.

Sanji then uses Diable Jambe and uses a Flambe Shot, sending the Pacifista towards Zoro who uses the Asura Nine Lightning Strikes.

Luffy then uses Gear Third and the Gum-Gum Giant Rifle to give a final blow, causing the Pacifista to shut down.

Luffy shrinks from his usage of Gear Third yet again and the crew rests. Nami hopes the cyborg will not wake up.

Robin insists on taking the Marines one after another. Franky seems to think the Kuma-like cyborg was made with living tissue. Sanji wants to find a place to hide, but then, a voice calls out that they had some nerve.

Just then, Sentomaru jumps down with another Kuma-like figure. He then reveals the Kuma-like robots are Pacifistas and will likely report to Vegapunk.

Sentomaru introduces himself as the strongest guard in the world who won't give out secrets.

PX-1 then releases a powerful beam from its palms. Zoro wants to fight again but is too injured to do so.

Luffy insists on splitting the crew up as there is no chance of victory. Nami flees with Sanji following her along with Franky.

The Pacifista then begins to fire on Usopp who latches onto Zoro.

Brook also follows, admiring the swordsman's selflessness.

Luffy insists on a rendezvous in three days at the Thousand Sunny while Usopp shoots a smokescreen.

The Pacifista breaks a bridge and corners Nami's group. Sentomaru faces Luffy and pushes him back easily.

He then uses an Ashigara Dokkoi to blast him back, hurting him badly. As Zoro's party flees, Kizaru intercepts and fires a light beam at him.

The admiral then stands above the wounded Zoro, holding him at his mercy and declaring he would rest forever and prepares a powerful light stomp.

Usopp and Brook's attempt to attack Kizaru and save Zoro's life failed, but Rayleigh arrived out of nowhere, and managed to block Kizaru's attack and holds him off. Luffy orders his crew to retreat, declaring that the enemies are impossible for them to defeat at this time, but Sentomaru and the other Pacifista stops their escape and even Chopper's Monster Point form was unable to turn the situation to their advantage. The real Kuma arrives and uses his Devil Fruit powers to make Zoro disappear.

but then Kuma stopped as he saw fimiliar figure infront of him

"Kaze"

"well,that me" said kaze with a smile as he continue with a smile"Kuma where do you want to send our Re-guild member?"

even Kuma that almost turned completely into cyborg feel cold sweet on his back

"i will send them to the place that will greatly help them for the future" said Kuma truthfully

"hemm,you can do it before the war kuma"

"but..."

"okay,everyone say goodbye to Kuma san" said kaze

then all strawhead crew had weird look on their face

but well,kaze just teleport all of them directly to Re-guild HQ in new world

{remember that kaze is logia space space df user?}

Rayleigh saw what happen so he just quickly run away as he dont really want to fight with kizaru(mostly because kizaru just to annoyingb with his light light df ability)

Kuka also left as he know that he can do anything again Kaze

the only left are kaze and kizaru

"so,kizaru when will you return Re-guild gold member?" asked kaze as it look like he was talking with old friend

"oh,i dont do that kind of complecated thing" said kizaru but in his mind he already shouted'what will i do now?,fight with this guy?,nonono this man haki are even stronger than me,wait for akoiji?,he to slow,red dog?damn that dog damn his justice'

but as kizaru still thinking kaze disappeared from his sight

"where?!"

"here" said kaze as he stood behind kizaru

kizaru directly turned into light and try to run away

how can kaze let him go?

"hey kizaru dont go to fast,it not like you has job right now right?" shouted kaze as he disappeared again

as for kizaru he already almost arive at marineford

{well kizaru is fast okay? Speed of light~~~}

but then he suddenly feel someone behind him and all he cam said is "Fuck!?!"

"hahaha hai kizaru we meet again" said kaze as he turn his hand into black and punch kizaru face from the sky

kizaru directly trowned to the marine hq building and it was sengoku the fleet admiral room

"kizaru?" looking at the one that destroyed his office sengoku feel anger but then when he saw who and what happen to person that destroyed his office he was shocked

the almost immortal person in marineford that has none injuries from the time he gain admiral rank was injured right infront of him

"kizaru what happen?,isnt you right now should go to..."

"Oh,fleet admiral?,i was attacked by Re-guild admiral" said kizaru carefreely that make him dont look injured at all

"what!?!,where is he?!?" shouted sengoku

"he already escape" said kizaru with lazy voice 'oh,the marine dont pay me enough to handle that kind of man' that what he think right now

as kaze he already return to Re-guild hq and meet with luffy and the crews

------'

maybe some of you guys think why did kizaru cant hanlde kaze

well there were two reason for that

1.kizaru dont want to fight as he still want to reserve his energy for upcoming war(well we dont want the admiral to severe injured before the war right?)

2.when kaze punch him,kizaru know that kaze baosohoku haki a way above him,so as kizaru hate fighting person that can hit him why would he fight with kaze?

3.kaze ability was to strong as even with haki,kizaru can predict kaze moves

(well kizaru not really good at haki as he always lazying around)
