~Third~

Luffy punched down the stone gate "Now which one of you is Arlong?"he asked "Arlong?"the man in question said in a questioning tone, Luffy walked further in "Well that just happens to be my name"Arlong said "Good you can call me Luffy"he said as he continued walking "Luffy? What are you supposed to be?"Arlong asked "A pirate"he simply said, Hachi one of the fishmen crew gasped recognizing him "Hey that guy, i remember him, he's the guy who likes going on walks" the octopus fishman said.

"Hold it right there"one of the fishmen said "Where do you think you're going?"another fishman asked as Luffy continued to approach "You wanna talk to the boss well you gotta talk to us first get it?"another fishman asked "So let's talk"one said "That's far enough"the other said stopping Luffy in his approach, "Move it"Luffy said and bonked their head together knocking them out.

Arlong was a bit shocked, just a tiny bit, "So what does a pirate want with me?"he asked, Luffy answered by punching him in the face sending the fishman flying and hitting the fence in the direction he went flying to "Who the hell are you?"Arlong asked getting out of the rubble looking a little pissed off, Luffy thought back to Nami crying for his help "That's for making our navigator cry!"he said extremely pissed off.

The fishmen attacked but before they even got close to Luffy, Sanji dealt with them "Step off, you're out of your league"he told the fishmen before turning to Luffy "Geez you just had to run on ahead by yourself"he said "Don't worry i can handle these bozos on my own"Luffy said "You fool i never said anything about being worried, i just don't you hogging all the action"Sanji said "Oh"Luffy simply said.

~Nicole~

"Well i just wanna say i don't mind if you guys hog it all"Usopp said walking over followed by Zoro and myself "I see you're rearing to go as usual"Zoro said "Yes you're practically shaking in excitement"i said with a smirk teasing Usopp "Yeah, it's not like i'm scared or anything!"Usopp said even his voice quivering, i snickered a bit, oh this was too easy, but so much fun.

"A pirate of course, this is all starting to make sense now, you've been after Nami this whole time but"Arlong said before bursting into laughter "The girl is mine and i'm not giving her up!"he laughed, the octopus fishman also laughed walking over "A bunch of idiots like you aren't worth Arlong's time we know how to deal with you!"he said before forming a trumpet with his mouth and making a call that sounded exactly like a trumpet playing.

Cause sure that's exactly how trumpets work, actually how did he make a sound like that? Cause as i understand instruments like the trumpet sound the way they do because their made of brass and other metals, anyway i didn't have time to dwell on it further as something was approaching "Everyone of you is about to become fish food! Momoo rise!"the octopus said "It's a monster! That's the beast from the Grand Line that destroyed the town of Goza!"Usopp yelled.

As the water cleared though it seemed to me that this creature was just an ordinary sea cow, Usopp was totally freaking out but what else is new, well the sea cow seemed already injured with a big lump on it's head, i frowned a bit, who'd to that to an innocent creature like this one? "Well look who's back"Luffy said "Seems he's a friend of the fishmen"Sanji said, seems they know this creature? Did they injure it? The sea cow was crying just seeing them, I narrowed my eyes at them, i'll scold them later.

The sea cow started to swim away "Hey wait! Stop! Where are you going?! Get back here Momoo, you can't just leave Momoo!"the octopus called after it "Leaving? Now now isn't that a shame"I heard Arlong say which made the sea cow stop "But i suppose if you really want to run away then who am i to stop you, well then?"Arlong asked, the sea cow turned around and attacked, probably more afraid of what Arlong would do to it then of Luffy and Sanji, either way that made me even more angry at Arlong, who knows what else that monster has done to make the sea cow so afraid of him.

The rest of the fishmen were coming at us again as well, "You're mine you stupid cow"Luffy said and planted his feet into the ground "Looks like he's got a plan for once"Sanji said "We'll see i've got a bad feeling about this"Zoro said, i couldn't agree more, Luffy started twisting his body around which he could do cause he's rubber, he grabbed the sea cow by it's horns, it was crying, i felt like i was about to cry too having guessed what Luffy was doing.

"Hey let's get out of here"Zoro said as that bad feeling increased "Whoa wait what's he gonna do?"Sanji asked "I'm not sure if i wanna find out"Zoro said and we ran off hopefully outside the attack range, which was a new move Luffy had thought of, gum gum pinwheel, as he called it, the sea cow flew off somewhere, my heart went out to it, i hope it will learn to stay out of trouble and find a happy life.

A bunch of Arlong's men were knocked out too "Alright that's it Arlong i'm done playing games with you, i didn't come here to beat your cronies! I came here to teach you a lesson! So step up!"Luffy yelled at him, we walked back over to Luffy and i bonked him on the head making bounce like the rubber man he is "How dare you do that to an innocent sea cow?!You didn't have to be so rough!!!"i yelled bonking him in the head over and over as Sanji was also kicking him "That was the stupidest plan ever!"he yelled.

"Yeah were you trying to kill all of us too?!?!?"Usopp asked but Luffy just said "Uh oh"like he realized something totally ignoring us, i just sighed dropping it, for now, as Luffy tried tugging his legs out of the ground "What are you doing?! Are you ruining something else?!"Usopp asked yelling at him "How dare you hurt our brother!"the octopus yelled bringing our attention back to the remaining fishmen.

"Very well, it seems that we must now join in the fight"the one with a very angler face said "Now you'll get an education in the inferiority of your species, chu"the other one with the big lips said, "Oh really, I'd like to see that"Zoro said a cocky smirk on his face, "Relax sir let us handle this"square head said "If you go on one of your rampages to squash these insects you could destroy all of Arlong Park, chu"big lips said "Ooh i'm so scared" i say sarcastically.

Octopus growled "Please just let us kill these weaklings!"he said "Alright their yours"Arlong said confident in his men, i noticed Usopp had stepped back hiding behind a pillar "Uh guys there's something i should tell you"Luffy said but we ignored him as the octopus was doing something "What the hell is that octopus doing?"Zoro asked voicing my thoughts.

"Octopus is best when it's cut thin and salted add some olive oil and paprika and it makes the perfect snack while drinking"Sanji said "Sounds delicious, but i prefer takoyaki"i said "Whatever you want my dear!"Sanji said hearts in his eyes "So listen to me guys i'm kinda in trouble"Luffy said but again we ignored him as the octopus spat ink towards us, Sanji, Zoro and myself got out of the way but Luffy got hit covering him in ink.

"Idiot how come you didn't dodge that?!"Zoro asked him but Luffy was freaking out about not seeing anything but i saw the octopus picking up a piece of the building "Come on Luffy get out of there run!"Usopp yelled at him "Yeah that's the problem i can't run, i can't even walk"Luffy said, i sweatdropped "Wait don't tell me?"i trailed off "My feet are kinda stuck"he said confirming what i feared, i groaned a bit facepalming as the octopus brought down the piece of the building.

Sanji kicked it though braking it in half "You're such a pain"he said "Sanji that was so awesomely awesome!"Luffy said, pfft i could have sliced it in half and the cut would have been so neat you could fit the pieces back together "Looks like i picked one hell of an idiot to be my captain"Sanji said with a smirk "We all did"Zoro said, i nodded in agreement "Hey! Luffy's great!"Usopp yelled defending him "But the truth? Our idiot captain is far better then a gang who would pray on a lady"Sanji said.

"A lady huh?"Square face wondered outloud "You rushed into certain death for one lousy girl? I think that's the most ridiculous thing i've heard! besides i see another floozy right there why not settle for her?"square face asked, i glared at him "I promise if you insult Nami or Nicole again i'll turn you from fishman into fish sticks got that?"Sanji said jumping into my defense before i blew up at the jerk fishman for calling me that.

Meanwhile as Usopp tried to pull Luffy out of the ground Zoro challenged the octopus "You're Zoro, i forgot, you can't get away with tricking me!"he yelled slamming a piece of the building on the ground, Zoro and i jumped back dodging it, of course though i didn't intend to let Zoro do any fighting, he's still injured, seems he's forgotten it himself but i haven't so i'm not gonna let him fight in risk of him reopening his wounds.

"And how dare you mercilessly slaughter so many of my brothers?!"octopus asked coming over "That stuff is old news octopus man, i personally don't care for what reasons you have for wanting to kill me, the situation has changed you see the tables have turned, you see you're no longer the hunters, it's you fish freaks that are being hunted!"Zoro said drawing his sword, until i elbowed him in the gut.

Zoro wheezed a bit going down "What the hell Nicole?!"he asked, "I believe i told you before, i'm not letting you do anything too crazy!That includes letting you fight"i told him facing octopus "You want Zoro you're going through me"i said glaring at the fishman.

The third fishman ran off chasing Usopp but i didn't pay as much attention to that keeping my focus on octopus over here, out of the corner of my eye i saw Arlong getting up"You morons are a pathetic sight to behold, i'm sick of watching this now get out of my way"he said walking over "But sir there's no reason to go on a rampage think of Arlong Park"square face said "Don't worry, i won't, i just thought of a fun game that's all"Arlong said as he continued walking over.

I had a bad feeling about this "Game huh?"Octopus wondered "Now you're going down!"Luffy said going to punch Arlong but there wasn't nearly as much force behind it so Arlong easily dodged it and grabbed his arm "Do you honestly think your sad little group can defeat us?"he asked, honestly i think i'd be able to beat you all by myself if i chose to use that but i'm hoping i won't have to until we reach the first half of the Grand Line.

"So what if we do?"Sanji asked with a smirk on his face "Yeah so what if we do? Huh? Now let go!"Luffy said "You got something to say to us?"Zoro asked, Arlong didn't say just plunged a hand into the ground and picked up a boulder with Luffy stuck in it "Did you know that those with devil fruit powers can't swim?But honestly anyone in this situation would sink right to the bottom"Arlong laughed, i realized what he was going to do but was too late to stop him as Arlong chucked the boulder and Luffy with it into the sea.

Arlong laughed, Sanji went to go after him, i wanted to do so too and i could fight underwater even against a fishman but i didn't want to leave Zoro here to do something crazy like fighting and reopen his wound "Wait!"Zoro said stopping Sanji "Don't be stupid, those fishmen can't wait for us to jump in the water after him, they have an obvious advantage in an underwater fight"he said.

"What we should do is defeat them as fast as possible, then we can go after Luffy"i said drawing my swords and facing octopus again "So come on"i said "So how long can he hold out huh?Time is ticking"Arlong said "Oh?So that's the game"octopus said "I get it"square face said "I'm not letting you hog my fight"Zoro said stepping in front of me and drawing his sword "You can take the fish"he told Sanji.

"You slice and trim the octopus, i rather not have to worry about Nicole"Sanji said, i narrowed my eyes shoving Zoro to the side "I don't need you to worry about me"i said as the bubbles disappeared on the surface of the water "They can't even breath underwater! Humans are such pitiful creatures aren't they?!!!!!!"Arlong laughed.
