One Piece: Unreal Adventure-Chapter 101: Any last words
Chapter 101 - Any last words
While Luffy and Aramaki took the fight to the forest, the rest of the crew were busy getting ready to leave the island. They were setting up the Going Marry, the ship also didn't have it's pirate flag so there was a less chance that the Marines attack them while they fled the island.
Gin was the most damaged among all of them, having severe burns on his skin. Hatchan was next. But because of him being a fish-man and his quick recovery the sword wound on his chest wasn't that bad.
Mommo the sea king was only knocked out and had a cracked skull, but Sparky was able to wake him up. So the sea king should be able to pull the Going Marry right now.
"What do you mean, you want us to start the ship?" Coby asked the six-armed monkey. "We can't leave without Captain." Yosaku and Johnny who was on Coby's side nodded.
The six-armed monkey said some words which was barely understandable, but Zoro was able to translate them. "We aren't leaving Luffy, it's his order... in fact the monkey says he'll join him in the fight, while we flee. Luffy doesn't want to fight that man either... so he's just stalling them from us. We would only be dragging him down if we stayed here..."
"You guys can't be serious..." Nami shouted, "He's fighting there alone... and isn't he some big shot hunter from the grandline. Luffy is in danger... we can't leave him."
Zoro looked at the navigator, "Captain's order... we can't do anything about it." He said with his fist clenched.
"In plain words... we will only be a liability to him..." Sanji said, smashing his fist in the nearby wall in frustration. It was always like this, he wasn't just strong enough to make a difference. "Nami... we want nothing more than to go there and help him. But the fact is... we aren't strong enough." He hated being useless. But they could do nothing more than trust their captain.
Kuina didn't say anything just looked at where the fight was going, they could hear the blade clashing. First Mihawk, now him... the world truly were filled with people that had a monstrous level of strength. She had to get stronger if she wanted to reach that level.
Sparky had already left after explaining things, and no one stopped him, he was the only one who could help Luffy.
"We might not have to leave the island." It was Anchor who spoke. All heads looked towards him. "Look..." he said pointing at a certain direction in the sky.
A man from the marine ship jumped out of the marine ship, and his lower body transformed into some kind of smoke. And this man was none other than the Marine caption of Logue Town, Captain Smoker.
The marine landed on the shore looking around and found barely any civilians around.
Smoker looked around saw all of the straw hats, before his eyes stayed on Kuina and Anchor for a while, but then a huge explosion of green flames brought his attention tp the place where the battle was taking place between Luffy and Aramaki.
"Mind explaining to me what the fuck is going on?"
.
The reason why Smoker came to island was because he heard the distress signal from Sakura Island. Someone tried to contact the marines, most probably the late-mayor who also died in during the attack.
And after that Smoker came with one of his ships. Sakura Island was quite far from Logue Town, but there wasn't anyone near that would be able to help the island.
So he went in with some soldiers to look into the matter. Even though they knew by then the pirates would be done with it, as coming from Logue Town to Sakura Island would take at least two days even for fast marine vessels. Smoker still opted to come here.
As a marine he couldn't just ignore the call. His own beliefs won't let him. So he was surprised when he found out that a battle was going on in the Sakura Island.
Coming to the shore he found out that the threat of Captain Kuro and ex-marine Captain Morgan was already dealt with by a local bounty-hunting group. It was the same group who took down the other pirates in the blue. Led by a man who was better known by his allies Mario, the hero of Dawn Island.
But the problem was another bounty hunter came around dragged Mario to an unwilling battle. And Smoker had to get there and stop it. But there was just one problem, both of them knew Armament Haki.
"Good luck stopping those monsters," Anchor huffed, not amused. "If they aren't stop those two might even end up sinking the island with us..."
"Why couldn't things be easy..." Smoker said with a dark look on his face, before giving the former Marine a dirty look.
"What? You are the marine here..." Anchor shrugged. Smoker and he went way back, from the time back when they were still in the training camp. If the smoke logia was going, as his friend he would as well.
And besides, Luffy was quite a good customer, he didn't want to lose him just yet.
Smoker clicked his tongue, he took out a small transponder snail. "This is captain Smoker speaking... I will be engaging a bounty hunter by the name of Aramaki, who is running wild and creating problems. In case I was found injured or dead, you would know what happened."

With that, he cut the connection off before putting the snail back in his pocket. The fight needed to be stopped, the green flames were already spreading into the forest, and half of it was already scorched, soon it might even reach the port city.
"Hey," Zoro called, making Smoker stop and look at the green-haired swordsman. "Captain ordered anyone from going there... and that includes you."
Sanji, and Kuina also nodded, if needed they would stop him
Smoker's face twitched but before he could say anything an explosion occurred, bringing all of their attention to the fight.
The fire in the forest stopped along with all of the noise. It seemed the battle was over.
.
Luffy flew onto the ground winching from the pain in his gut, that punch hit like a truck. He was more so affected from the green liquid that was around his body.
He could feel it eating away at his flesh. That bastard suddenly blew himself up in close range. Even though Luffy could react to most of his opponent's attacks, he was getting exhausted from playing the running game.
Luffy had a few wounds but most of them weren't serious. Still, he had to keep up his observation haki at all times along with his gears... it was quite stamina-draining. The man was too experienced for Luffy to land a blow.
Luffy stood up, but suddenly he started feeling dizzy.
"Rahaha... already feeling the effects of my powers. Let me tell you, now that you are going to die." Aramaki said, before jabbing his thumb to himself. "I have eaten the Kemi Kemi no Mi (Chemical Chemical Fruit)... I can produce any kind of chemical... that substance on your body is a chemical that I was inspired by the green viper back in my hometown, now you won't be able to survive for long."
Luffy was not only feeling dizzy but also feeling nauseous, and yet he was calm. Why? Because the man might be strong, he was in fact quite stupid.
Who the fuck reveals their powers. And so what if the man had some Chemical powers. He could tell it wasn't anything radioactive, only a strong poison, which Luffy was easily dealing with Seimei Kikan. But he was acting weak and wobbly on the outside.
Sparky was already around the area, and was waiting for an opportunity... sparky might be strong, but being an animal, it already had a god-given talent for hiding his aura.
Observation haki users could still sense him, but to them, it would appear as if it was just another animal in the forest... not something to worry about. That's why he was trying to make Aramaki let his guard down.
Aramaki attacked again, this time Luffy was playing the defensive game. Waiting for an opportunity.
The fight continued, but even without acting, Luffy was losing badly. Even with all efforts he wasn't able to hold him off for long. Deep wounds started appearing more on Luffy, Horn's edge's blade was broken and tossed to his side. Even his nameless naginata was on the floor, away from Luffy's reach.
Even Luffy was back to his base state.
"I'm surprised you survived this long... Any last words?" Aramaki asked grinning while he held Luffy by the throat, dangling him in air. His sword was pointed at Luffy's chest to stab him... "Heh, like I cared..." he said as pushed the sword in.

But suddenly things slowed down, and a grin appeared on Luffy's face. A savage grin, "Gotcha Bitch." he said, quickly, cuffing the man with sea prism stone in both hands at the same time.
Aramaki's eyes almost popped out of his socket, –but slowly– as he lost his devil fruit powers. He was even more surprised when sea stone bullets, a total of six shots dug inside his back.
Luffy grabbed the man's face with both his arms being in a well-familiar motion. "This might mess up your face, so brace yourself," Luffy said, dangerously, his forearms starting to fold as if it was a spring, before turning black from haki. "Gomu Gomu no... face-buster Rokuogan!"
And like that a dangerous amount of wind pressure was released from the technique. Creating a deep gash on the ground that dragged till the end of the island. Throwing the man off as he flew of the island itself. And into the sea.
With that Luffy dropped onto the ground panting, that last attack, he put every ounce of strength in it.
The last thing Luffy saw was Sparky coming towards him.
