28 Chapter 27 (1/2)
After around an hour, I heard the people around us quietly make their way out of the bar. Once everyone was gone, Zoro, I and the girls stood up.
”I will go and deal with those fools. I'm pretty sure I know who we are dealing with.” Zoro stated and made his way out as well.
”I will go and see if there is anything of value here.” Nami walked out after him.
”Let's go and watch the show,” I told the girls.
”Tch, and I just got comfortable.” Nojiko didn't look happy, while Aisha nodded at me, and grabbed my hand.
Once we walked out, the people were scrambling about trying to escape Zoro, who was playing around with them. He was testing the new swords he got from Loguetown.
”The information was wrong! He should be the Captain and the one with a seventy million bounty.” I heard Vivi.
In just a few minutes Zoro subdued over a hundred people. In the meantime, we had found a place to observe everything from above. Nojiko was of great help, erecting a platform for us.
”I will pummel you to the ground.” A muscular dark-skinned woman, with pink hair, tried fighting Zoro with pure physical strength alone. Sadly for her, she was no match for him and was knocked out within seconds. Zoro has been pushing himself extra hard lately and has improved a lot.
”Let's show him what we got, Miss Wednesday.” Mr. 9 said and jumped on top of a building, while Vivi called out to her duck, Carue. She hopped on top of her duck and ordered it to go after Zoro. Unfortunately, Carue ran the opposite direction from Zoro.
”Let's see if you can deal with my acrobatic skills.” Mr. 9 jumped in the air with two metal batons in hand. He started spinning while falling towards Zoro.
”I don't have time for fools like you.” Zoro hit him with the back of his sword and knocked him out.
Iggarapoi jumped out from behind him and tried shooting him, but Zoro easily dodged his attempts. Zoro was about to knock him out before a projectile flew in their direction. Before it could hit them, Zoro cut it in the middle, but Iggarapoin moved away in the process.
”You can't even deal with a simple clown. How you got your positions is beyond me.” A dark-skinned man with black hair in short spiky dreadlocks came into the scene. Next to him was a woman with short blond hair and green eyes. She was wearing a yellow and orange hat, as well as a yellow dress with a lemon-like pattern, lemon earrings, and white high-heeled shoes.
”Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine! With your help, we will easily beat them.” Iggarapoi said.
”We aren't here to help you. We are here to deal with those who know the bosses secret. That would be you two. Igaram the captain of the Alabasta royal guard and Vivi Neferati the princess of Alabasta.” Mr. 5 picked his nose and shot a booger at Vivi.
Igaram got in the way of the shot and defended Vivi. After that, he turned around and begged Zoro to help save the princess.
”Mr. Swordsman, seeing your strength, I will make an unreasonable request. Those two are Devil Fruit users, and I am unable to deal with them. Please help and protect the princess in my stead.” He was about to refuse him, but I made my appearance at that point.
”Yosh, I promise we will help her!” I stated with confidence. Vivi and Igaram were startled by my sudden appearance next to them.
”Kyahhah, allow me to bury you into the ground. Eat my ten thousand kilogram press!” Miss Valentine's voice came from above us. She was hovering in the air using her umbrella, before falling towards us. Miss Valentine fell right into my arms, and the ground cracked underneath us, but other than that nothing happened.
Miss Valentine started squirming in my arms, trying to escape my grasp. She didn't look much of a fighter outside her ability to increase her weight.
I felt a projectile coming our way and quickly moved from where I was standing with her in my arms, while Zoro and Vivi were able to escape from the explosion.
”Aren't you teammates? Why would he shoot you as well.” I asked Miss Valentine, but she couldn't respond since another projectile came our way.
”Completing the mission is the top priority, and since you will get in the way, I will eliminate you,” Mr.5 stated before pulling out a revolver and blowing into the cartridge. Before he could take a shot, Zoro appeared behind him using Soru. With a quick hit with the backside of his sword, he knocked him out.
”I thought you said I would have fun. I was expecting more coming to the Grand Line.” Zoro stated.
