Chapter 77: Meeting Brogy

Ben and the girls walked around the forest when they suddenly heard a large thump on the ground.

"What was that?" Mikita asked.

"I am not sure, maybe another dinosaur," Ben answered.

"This must be a very big dinosaur," Honey said.

"Let's check it out," Ben said. They got closer to the sound and saw a giant wearing a viking costume. He wore a red overall with golden button straps, yellow pants with black stripes. He was wearing yellow shoes, and a red helmet with two horns and had a blond beard, beady eyes, a wide grin.

"He is tall," Honey said.

"A giant," Mikita added.

Ben saw him and walked towards him and said, "Hello my name is Ben," he greeted.

"He is crazy," Mikita said. Honey shrugged.

The giant looked down and smiled. "A tiny human, I am Brogy, what are you doing here?" he said.

"We are exploring this Island and saw you," Ben replied.

"Gababababababa, exploring this dangerous island," Brogy laughed and added, "You have to be careful around here little human."

"Why don't you come and eat with me?" Brogy asked.

"Sure," Ben said and added, "Honey and Mikita come out."

Honey and Mikita walked out of the forest. "More little friends," Brogy said.

They walked back to a large skull-like structure. Its size was awe-inspiring. The sharp teeth and hollow eyes were huge. "So this my humble home," Brogy said.

"Massive," Ben said.

"Yes it truly is big," Honey said.

"Wow," Mikita got out.

"So tell me what are your names are?" Brogy said, looking at the girls.

"Honey," Honey introduced herself.

"Mikita," Mikita introduced herself.

"Gababababababa. I am Brogy," he said.

"So what else are you doing here?" Brogy asked.

"I am on the journey to become the Pirate King and take down the Yonkos and Marines and World Government. I am starting my journey now, a long way before I reach that goal but it won't be long," Ben said.

"Gababababababa. A man with great ambition so you think you can beat the like of Whitebeard, Shanks, Big Mom and Kaido, and the Admirals," Brogy said.

"Not now, in two years yes," Ben firmly stated.

"And if you fail?" Brogy asked.

"There will be ups and downs however with my crew, I can take them all down," Ben said looking at Honey and Mikita. They both blushed.

"Gababababababa. You may have what it takes then," Brogy said,

"So Brogy, what are you doing here?" Ben asked.

"As per Elbaf tradition, every time the Volcano explodes, I will fight Dorry. We have been fighting over 100 years and it has been a tie every single time but this time I will win," Brogy explained.

"Wow," Honey said.

"That is amazing, fighting over 100 years," Mikita said and added,"What are you fighting over?"

"It was," Brogy stopped to think and said,"I can't remember. Gababababababa,"

"The Elbaf and warrior pride means we will fight, it does not matter about what," Brogy added.

"So honourable," Honey said.

"Yes it is," Ben said. Ben remembered that Mr 5, Mr 3 and Miss Goldenweek will interfere in this fight. He thought that he should allow Mr 5 to interfere and let Brogy win so they can have that moment at the end of the arc. However Mikita is with him now so things may play out differently now.

"Captain, what are you thinking?" Mikita asked.

"Nothing much," Ben said.

"Well thinking is good but you need to eat. You look too thin," Brogy said and offered them his food.

"Thank you," Ben said and took a bite of the meat.

Mikita and Honey declined.

Meanwhile at the other side of the island with Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Usopp they had met Dorry and were having a meal with them.

"Shishishi, so you and this other giant have been fighting for over 100 years here," Luffy said.

"An incredible custom. I will also become a warrior of Elbaf," Usopp declared.

"So what were you two fighting over?" Nami said.

"I don't remember but we fought and it's been a draw all the time," Dorry replied.

"Incredible," Usopp said.

Zoro and Sanji had brought a barrel of beer back from their ship. "Here is the beer," Sanji said.

"Take some," Luffy offered.

"Gegyagyagyagya. Thank you," Dorry said as he picked up the barrel of beer and started chugging it down.

"This was good," Dorry said as he got up.

Suddenly an explosion was heard. "That is the volcano, time to fight," Dorry said.

Dorry got up and the Strawhats followed.

"Luffy, I am going to check something I saw coming here," Sanji said.

"Sure Sanji but you will miss the fight," Luffy replied.

"That is fine," Sanji said as he went into the forest.

"I wonder where he is going?" Nami asked.

"Something perverted," Zoro replied.

Nami was not convinced with that answer but she let it go. She did not want to chase Sanji in this dangerous jungle right now and the Captain gave his permission.

Dorry got to their spot and saw Brogy there. Ben, Mikita and Honey were also there.

"So Brogy another round," Dorry said.

"Yes and you will go down this time," Brogy said.

"Gababababababa," Brogy laughed.

"Gegyagyagyagya," Dorry laughed.

"It is time," Brogy said. Brogy was holding a bruiser axe and a shield.

Dorry was holding a large sword and shield. They ran and clashed their weapons with each other.

"Amazing," Luffy said.

Dorry tried to stab Brogy but Brogy blocked with his shield. Brogy then attempted to hit Dorry with his axe but Dorry blocked it with his sword.

"Not bad," Dorry taunted.

Dorry then moved his sword to strike. Brogy saw it coming and blocked it with his shield. Brogy jumped back and charged Dorry with his axe. Dorry clashed with his sword. They both smiled at each other.

Ben thought that Dorry was perfectly fine. He thought we Mr 5 could be.

Brogy again ran towards Dorry. Dorry also ran towards him. Dorry was about to clash again with Brogy however he tripped over something and Brogy slashed him in the chest with his axe.

Dorry groaned in pain when fell down. Brogy looked surprised that his attack connected.

The Strawhats were confused as well. Ben knew at least this part is happening.
