Chereads / The Shinobi of Straw Hats / Chapter 131 - 130. Heroes

Chapter 131 - 130. Heroes

"Straw Hat pirates, you are under suspicion of planning to destroy this island. Surrender yourself!"-Minister of the Left

Jon & Zoro are dumbfounded by this statement. Suddenly they become suspects of a nonexistent plan. Jon look at Neptune and he is just as confused as them.

"What's the meaning of this-jamon?"-Neptune

"Your Majesty, we've just got a report that Madam Shyarly get a future vision. She see that Straw Hat pirates will destroy this island."-Minister of the Left

"Fortune telling? You use a fortune telling as your reason to capture us?"-Zoro

"Well, Shyarly's future vision is always accurate so far."-Neptune

"Don't be ridiculous old man! You should know that everything have a reason. How if your act of trying to capture us is the reason for our retaliation? Then it will lead to this island destruction."-Jon

"He is right, let's not make a mistake just because of a probability-jamon."-Neptune

"But-"-Minister of the Left

"Did she see the reason for us to do that? If not, then it will just be a stupid vision."-Zoro

"Well, if she is right, i have a prediction of how it happen."-Jon

"How?"-Fukaboshi

"That New Fishman Pirate, they will be the ones that become the reason. They've tried to get us as their member, and i believe they will not give up. We have fame and strength, so they must've really want us. I don't know their ambition, but at least i know they didn't protect Fishman Island like Sun Pirate."-Jon

"So you think they might want to destroy this island?"-Fukaboshi

"Why would they destroy it if they can take it over?"-Jon

The Royals and their mens are surprised. Jon just say that Hody might be planning to get the Kingdom from the Royal Family's rule.

"But Shyarly didn't see anything-jamon."-Neptune

"Did she always saw everything? Did she saw Whitebeard's death?"-Jon

"No."-Fukaboshi

They all have a dark face, and think of any possibilities.

"Don't be too worried, Luffy has become friends with your princess. He is someone that will always help his friends. As long as you're not hostile to us, we won't do anything to you."-Jon

"He's right, we might be crazy, but we're not unreasonable people."-Zoro

"If you're still worried, then you can ask Luffy so we can leave as soon as possible. Just let the princess have some fun for a while."-Jon

Everyone accept this, and agree to let them stay in Fishman Island today. They will be put under surveilance until they leave. Jon & Zoro didn't say anything, it's understandable for these people to be wary of stranger, especially pirates like them.

"Well, let's continue our interrogation to this guy. Maybe he have some interesting information."-Jon

"You're right-jamon."-Neptune

Jon put the guy under his genjutsu and start to interrogate him. The guy is a pirate that want to go to the New World with his crew, but they are caught by Hody. Then they are being forced to be Hody's pawn.

He said that Hody make an alliance with Decken and try to take over the Fishman Island from Neptune. He was being thrown using Decken's devil fruit power. His job is to open the gate to Ryugu Palace.

Neptune & co are surprised by this, and have dark faces. Jon then ask Zetsu about the information and it seem to be correct. He command Zetsu to find Hody, Decken, and their crewmates.

"Old man, we're lucky to find this guy before he find the switch. But now they must've think that the gate is open. They must be on their way here from their base."-Jon

"You're right, they might have arrived in the city. We can't let them create chaos there-jamon."-Neptune

Jon then call Luffy and the others, they're still moving together. They are in Sea Forest, and they've met with Jinbe. Even Robin & Franky are there too after finishing their business.

Jon tell them the situation and ask Luffy for their next move. Luffy want to fight immediately, but Jinbe stop him and give his suggestion. They will become a hero, which make Luffy, Zoro, and Jon refuse.

"Hero? NO!"-Jon, Luffy, Zoro

"WHAATT?!"-Jinbe

"Do you know what's a hero?"-Luffy

"Huh?"-Jinbe

"For example, there are meats. Hero is someone that give the meats to people, i want the meats for myself."-Luffy

"I want the sake for myself."-Zoro

"I don't want to be bald."-Jon

"Meat? Sake? Bald?"-Everyone is dumbfounded

Jon think to himself that if he become a hero, then he will certainly be the strongest hero, talk about narcistic. The strongest hero for him is not Superman or Hulk, but Saitama. If he become the strongest hero, then he will be bald.

Jinbe then tell them they will get their meats and Sake. He can't do anything about Jon's concern though. So Jinbe just say Jon doesn't need to be a hero and just fight. Jon didn't object and satisfied with that.

Then Jinbe tell his plan to solve everything at once. The Kingdom army will try to stop Hody and his gang first, but Jinbe tell them that their chance of winning is low. The army is surprised when Jinbe say that there are around 100,000 pirates under Hody's command.

It will be hard for the army to win, but they need to fight. If they're getting defeated, then Jinbe will come and surrender himself first. At that moment, he will call the Straw Hats to come. Then they can enter and join the battle, because people will think they're helping Jinbe.

Everyone agree with this plan, because Jinbe will come and ensure the royals safety. Jinbe will give himself in so he can protect the royals. He is not a Knight of The Sea with nothing to back that title.

They start their plan, and the Kingdom army move to secure the citizens and fight the pirates. Jon & Zoro stay behind and wait for their friends that will pick them up with Sunny. Neptune apologize to both Jon & Zoro for the previous scuffle before he leave with the army.

Jon & Zoro prepare their swords and other things for the battle. They wait at the gate and Jon meditate while preparing his chakra. Kurama also say he want to come out and play, but Jon disagree, he still can't let Kurama's existence known to public.

"This will be our first battle together after 2 years."-Zoro

"Yeah, let's flex our muscles before we go to New World."-Jon

"Those Fishman Pirates never leave their home and see the world, but they think they can do anything. They are like frogs in a well."-Zoro

"Can't you find another idiom? You always use that because Mihawk said that to you right? Or maybe it's the only idiom you know?"-Jon smirk

"Tsk."-Zoro

The gatekeeper keep updating the news from the battle. At first, the army seem to have advantage, but then Hody join them and he is too strong for the army. Even Neptune that is said to be very strong is not Hody's match.

Just like Jinbe's prediction, the army got defeated. The pirates hold the Royal Family and Ministers as hostages. They call the citizens to a big plaza and it seem Hody want to take the throne by executing Neptune in public.

Sometime later, a coated Sunny arrive and they all go to the battlefield. Luffy, Robin & Nami are not there, it seem Luffy want to hold his promise to protect Shirahoshi, so he go with her by hiding in Megalo's mouth. Jon can't imagine how smelly it is to be inside a mouth. While Robin & Nami are there because they're tasked to steal keys & letter.

They all go to the battlefield and look at the situation from far on the sky. They see that the Jinbe hasn't give his signal, and Hody is making a speech. It seem Hody say something about the late Queen Otohime and make the Fishmans surprised.

In the plaza, Hody ask Shirahoshi about something that only she knew. Finally Shirahoshi say that it is Megalo that told her everything. Megalo saw Hody was the one who assassinated the late Queen.

Everyone got very surprised, because they thought that it's human who kill her. Everyone get surprised, and the princes ask why Shirahoshi didn't tell them. She said that it's her mother's dying wish to not hate Otohime's killer. She didn't told the princes so they won't have grudges too.

The people there are symphatized with her for this, but Hody laugh at her. He mock Shirahoshi, because her action make his plan work smoothly. Then Hody attack the tied up Neptune with water shot, injuring the giant merman King.

Some kids that looking at the side with the other citizens ask Shyarly. They ask about when the Straw Hats will destroy the island. Shyarly say she didn't know about the time and only saw the incident.

The kids hope that it will happen now, because Hody and his crewmates will get destroyed too. The adults also start to hope like that, they can't see the Royal Family suffer. They start to call the Straw Hats to come and destroy their island.

"Straw Hat, where are you?"-Man A

"Don't you want to destroy this island?"-Woman A

"Hurry up and come! Destroy this island and Hody's group."-Man B

"HAHAHAHA, THOSE HUMANS WON'T BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING."-Hody

Hody mock at them and deny Shyarly's future vision. He deny it, but his eyes and hands are shaking, because he know Shyarly's never wrong so far. Then Hody finally try to execute Neptune, but Shirahoshi cry for Luffy's help.

Suddenly a thumping sound is heard, and Hody stop what he's doing. Megalo is squirming around, and then spit something. Suddenly, Hody got flunged behind and crash the rock wall behind. It's Luffy that come out from Megalo's mouth and kick Hody very fast.

The Straw Hats on the sky know it's their time, so they move the ship to the plaza. Franky shoot the Gaon Canon to the Fishman pirates to clear the path. Everyone got surprised by Sunny's appearance and power.

They arrive shortly and commenting on the enemies number. There are really around 100,000 enemies in here. Nami also suddenly appear while holding a paper, surprising the Fishman pirates. She has gave the keys to Robin that start to freeing the hostages.

"So each one of us need to take care of about 10,000."-Sanji

"Number doesn't matter, i will defeat all of them alone if it's needed. You can go back if you're afraid."-Zoro

"What'd you say? I will defeat more than you."-Sanji

"Hooh, how if we see who can take out more enemies?"-Zoro

"Why not? I'll show you my 2 years of these legs training."-Sanji

"Stop bickering, you two have lower bounty than me, so i will take out more."-Jon smirk

""HUH?""-Zoro & Sanji have tickmark

"You three can take out all of them if you want."-Usopp

They got down from the ship and Luffy also walk back to them. Jon is walking in the middle toward Luffy. The citizens start to ask them if they'll really destroy the island. They also ask if the Straw Hats are friends or foe.

"Friends? Foes? Something like that, decide it yourself!"-Luffy

The Straw Hats pose in a formation, and Jinbe also join them after taking off his handcuff. Jon is on Luffy's left, with Sanji, Brook, & Nami. Zoro is on Luffy's right with Robin, Jinbe, Usopp & Chopper. While Franky is on the ship with Caimie & Pappag who tag along.

"Hey, i think we need a photographer to take picture of epic moment like this."-Jon

"Why not do it yourself?"-Sanji

"Ah, you're right. Don't move!"-Jon

Jon make a clone and the clone go to their front and take some pictures from every angles. The Fishmans are confused, but they let it be, and think it's human culture. The clone go to the ship and process the photos right away.

"Why can't you change even after 2 years?"-Nami

"You too, still a money grubber."-Jon

"Yohohoho, you still bickering like always."-Brook

The Straw Hat pirates have join the battle.
