Chapter 10:Here we are! The Mushroom Kingdom
(The mushroom kingdom: toad town)
After about 20 minutes of walking down and through the mushroom forest Luffy and Toad we're finally reaching the mushroom kingdom's entrance.
While the toad was still up ahead leading the way to their destination, Luffy was busy hanging back a little checking out the beautiful fungi scenery around him.
He was amazed at how different this world was from his own while still almost looking like it at the same time.
It truly was an incredible fantasy world that no one he knew could rationalize or doubt if they saw this.
He wandered what else was living out in this world that he hadn't seen yet.
He then also saw a clear white bird flying overtop of him towards the top of a mushroom tree.
After taking a closer look, he saw that the bird was only trying to carry some pieces of wood up to. It's almost finished nesting on top of the mushroom tree.
It was amazing that even some of the wildlife from this world acted the same way as they would from his world.
A second or two passed by of him looking up at the mushroom top before he turned his attention forward to follow toed but suddenly he tripped, and fell over something tall and round that was right in front of him.
He laid his face first on the pavement Like a flat pancake on the stove.
When he picked himself up, his face looked as flat as a board, so he once again held his hand over his nose and mouth and reinflated himself.
He turned around to see if he tripped over when he saw that it was Toad who had fallen over.
Luffy must've been walking too fast for Toad and accidentally tripped over him without paying attention.
He immediately ran over to help his smaller companion up off the ground,"oh heh sorry buddy didn't see you there you OK Toad".
Toad looked up at him in confusion as a response to his concern,"D-do I know you"?, Toad asked curiously.
That definitely confused Luffy.
What was this guy talking about?
They literally just met not even an hour ago.
Yet he was acting as if he didn't know him nor met him before .
Luffy shot him a confused look,"Toad it's me Luffy remember, you said you show me your home".
Toad's confused look stayed on his face,"I'm sorry Mr….", takes a look at Luffy,"Whatever you are but you must have me confused with another Toad".
If Luffy wasn't confused before, he was definitely confused now.
What was he talking about, another Toad?
What is the one right not the same one here just met?
Did they all look the same?
Luffy tilted his head in confusion,"Another Toad-".
"Hey Luffy, come on we're almost there", a familiar voice shouted from behind him.
Luffy turned around to see who it was and to his surprise, it was Toad.
He was standing right behind him holding his bag tightly in his hand.
Luffy was definitely confused.
She turned from one of them to the other, trying to process what he was seeing.
After a moment or two, he then realized why he was getting this one confused with the toad he had just met.
Though they may have had the same color on the head, the new one didn't have a blue vest with yellow lining but a red vest with yellow lining.
And he didn't have a backpack on his back either, which Luffy just now noticed.
Toad suddenly looked at the other Toad and smiled,"Oh hey Tobias, how ya doing"?
Tobias shrugged," Eh ya know it comes and goes", and said before turning curiously to Luffy,"What's this thing, something you found on another one of your wanders to sell at your shop"?
Toad shook his head,"Nope not something but someone and he's not another item though I did find some on the way, but let's just say he's something really important".
The red mushroom shrugged his shoulders," Well you have grin with that", he said before walking away.
Luffy looked down at Toad in curiosity,"Wow he looked just like you".
"Of course he does, he's a mushroom person just like the rest of us",Toad said before turning back to walk the direction he was going before.
Luffy did the same but faster until what Toad had just said hit him.
Was he saying that there were more mushroom people that look exactly like him?
"Us"?Luffy asked right before his question would be answered in a crazy way.
There it was the entrance to the place Toad had been talking about.
THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM: TOAD TOWN!!!!!!
The two of them walked over a bridge and into the town.
And let's just say when Luffy walk past that entrance, he was amazed by what he saw.
It was incredible!!!!
The first things he noticed were the giant mushroom buildings surrounding him wherever he looked that surrounded the entire city.
There was a rainbow surrounding the entire city giving it a very colorful look.
As they walked over the bridge, he spotted multiple fish leaping over top of it with strange, sucker fish-like faces, except looking like literal sucking faces.
And speaking of colorful things everyone of the mushroom buildings had a different color code to it
There were little blocks floating over top of each building.
And not just a few blocks either.
As in literal, floating islands, miniature ones, at least.
Luffy walked forward and spotted multiple trees that looked as if they had a certain Speer-like top to them.
Toad stopped and turned to Luffy before holding his hands high in the air," Alright buddy, welcome to part of the mushroom kingdom, toad town, where all of us mushroom people work and help support the kingdom, while having some time to live on lives", he declared.
Luffy looked on in aw,"THIS PLACE IS AWESOME", he shouted in excitement.
Toad closed his eyes and nodded his head in agreement,"That it is Luffy, that it is".
He then opened his eyes and looked right at Luffy,"And just so you wondering, this place has everything a town could ever need, a grocery market, a couple wrecking sights, a couple of shops, a few store to shop at, a crazy cap store or two, and before you ask no it is not just a hat store it's a close shopping center", Toad said as he pointed to all the different places before gasping loudly,"and the restaurant, oh my gosh you have to go to toadstool cafe, there fire flower cupcakes are to die for".
After hearing that, Luffy's stomach began to grumble, all this talk about food was starting to get him hungry.
He rubbed his stomach,"Speakin of food I'm starvin, ya guys got any meat here", he asked hopefully.
Toad quickly shook his head in response," no siree Bob".
That response pretty much broke Luffy's world after hearing that.
And this wasn't exactly good news to him.
When Luffy is either tired or exhausted, he is able to consume meat in order to promote faster regeneration to recover from exhaustion, and thanks to his rubber metabolism, he is able to recover from even the largest of meals, being full of energy and ready to fight in no time.
Well, almost all the time.
He didn't know why but ever since his last fight with Kaido he hasn't really felt up to full capacity since then.
He was still strong, sure, but he's sold as if he was limited, and was more worn out than usual.
But either way, he didn't have any meat to eat, and that was not a good thing for him.
His jaw dropped to the floor in shock,"WHAT, HOW CAN YOU GUYS LIVE A LIFE WITHOUT MEAT, THAT SOUNDS AWFUL", he shouted.
Toad simply shrugged his shoulders,"Well we don't really need to, none of us here eat meat and even if we did there's nothing here to hunt or at least nothing that we'd be able to catch".
Luffy turned and pointed to the river underneath the bridge they had just crossed," What about the fish there they're pretty good to eat, don't you guys go fishing?" Luffy asked curiously.
"We can't eat those fish because we have a peace treaty with them, and we have them there to help clean out all the filth and waste from some of the pipes that lead into the water so basically they help keep the water clean, with some time to fish them for fun, but that's about it, we never eat them, especially considering the fact that they mostly eat waste and suck things, so yeah, ew", Toad explained.
Luffy then pointed to the sky,"What about the birds everywhere"?
Toad shook his head," Oh no especially not them, they play as our alarm systems in case there's danger around, you see when the see a threat coming towards them they have this really loud screeching sound that loud enough to alert the entire kingdom, so eating them's kinda outta the question".
He then walked towards one of the fruit carts and grabbed an apple and started juggling it,"So we eat the next best thing, fruit and we got lots of it, so much so that we use it for almost anything we eat", he explained before tossing Luffy the apple and walking forward.
Luffy caught it and quickly took a huge bite out of it and began to follow him before he soon realized what he was surrounded by, actually who he was surrounded by.
Remember when Toad said that there were multiple mushroom people that looked like him, well he definitely wasn't lying about that.
Luffy looked around and was completely shocked at the sight of all the mushroom people that looked as if they were all identical siblings.
Every one of them looked exactly alike from height, to facial expressions, to the little diaper shaped pants on their legs and the same shoes.
It's as if he was in a mirror maze that reflected all these identical little guys.
But though they all allowed the same, there thankfully was a way to tell them all apart.
And it was the mushroom parts themselves.
Each of them had a different color mushroom cap and vest that each of them wore.
Red, blue, yellow, green, and purple.
Each mushroom person had one of these colors on their Mushroom cap and vest.
He knew that they were going to be other people that were mushrooms like to, but he didn't think they'd be identical.
It has various inhabitants residing in the town that look alike and not alike at the same time.
It was an incredible sight to behold.
But what wasn't so incredible were the shocked and somewhat confused looks on each of the mushroom people gave him when he passed by.
Some of them stepped back out of fear.
Others stepped closer in curiosity.
Some were even just straight up staring at Luffy.
Though he didn't really care much about it though, he was more focused on following wherever Toad was leading him to.
And hopefully it was to find help from that princess toad I was talking about earlier whoever she is.
If she was their princess, she must have looked more like a giant mushroom person like in a bee or ant hive.
Well whatever she looked like didn't matter, as long as she was willing to help Luffy on his journey to save his friends then he could care less about her looks.
(A few minutes later)
The mushroom kingdom was an amazing sight, as they walked through the mushroom kingdom they saw a bunch of mushroom people collecting coins at what looked like a strange ATM system.
Toad was doing his best to get him and Luffy past this crowd but it sure as hell wasn't easy,"Scuse me, everybody, coming through. We gotta big adventure happening right now. Clear a path for us. If I could just... Excuse me...", unfortunately for them the crowd wasn't exactly making that a simple task.
The mushroom people were bewildered by Luffy as they looked at him with curiosity, the Luffy wasn't really that surprised with the mushroom people, but instead was more cheerful and was even more than happy to smile and wave at them.
As he's making his way through the crowd, Toad accidentally bumps into another mushroom person which causes him to bump into another, dropping a bunch of coins they rolled over to Luffy.
He quickly picks one of them up and examines it carefully.
He then sees a mushroom person nervously walking up to him, carefully trying to get his coin back
Luffy smiles wildly as he hands him back the coin and pats him on his mushroom cap,"Here ya go", he said cheerfully.
The little mushroom slowly smiled a little and nodded his head,"T- thank you",he said quietly and nervously.
He appreciated Luffy's kindness.
Luffy responded by smiling and tipping his hat to the little guy,"No problem".
He then turned and quickly started grabbing the coins and falling on the ground and handed them to the other mushroom people that were around before turning to follow towed and waving goodbye.
They all just stood there stunned at what they just saw.
Who and what was that thing, was the only thought on their minds.
As they were making their way through the crowd, Toad was starting to get fed up with the lack of progress they were making and decided to do something about it.
He jumped up midway in the air,"Excuse me, everybody! Comin' through! This guy's friends are going to die! immediately! Out of the way, please!"he shouted, Startling some of the mushroom people around them and causing them to move out of the way.
Luffy was shocked at what just came out of Toad's mouth.
The last thing he wanted was to think that way in such a dire situation like this, especially about his friends.
He quickly walked up the toad," What the hell man, that's not what I want to hear right now.
Toad held up his arms in defense,"Just trying to clear a path. That's all I'm doing. They're gonna be fine Luffy I promise you", he said, reassuring Luffy that everything would be OK.
Just then Toad saw a familiar face and waved to them,"Chanterelle!".
The purple mushroom person looked over to Toad and smiled,"Morning!"
"Nice to see ya, bud!"Toad waved goodbye to his friend.
They were walking through town when Toad suddenly stopped in front of an almost tiny building that looked as if it was an antique store.
He then turned to Luffy," all right we're still heading to the princesses castle as planned, but I still need to drop some things off and talk to a friend of mine before we do, is that cool?"?.
Luffy nodded his head, signaling that Toad to go into the antique store, with Luffy right behind him so he had to crouch down a little to fit in.
The Antiques store looked as if it consisted of antiques which included SuperBells, Hammers, Music Blocks and Lakitu's Clouds.
Inside the store, there were three mushroom people, one green one looking through the back, a yellow one looking through the front aisle, and finally a red one sitting behind the cash register.
The yellow mushroom grabbed something from the isles, and walked up to the,"Does this thing work at all?"
The red mushroom looked down at what the customer was talking about and instantly recognized it before looking up, confidently,"Yes, it works great. Eh, you just have to blow into it a couple of times, and it should be fine".
The customer looked at him with a little bit of confusion,"So is there a certain part that I blow into it or is there an open a Slot".
The room, a red toad put his hand up and looked underneath the counter and pulled out a manuscript," here you go they should tell you everything you need to know".
The customer nodded and placed a few coins on the counter," Thanks, Bernie", he said, before running off.
Toad smiled at the side of this before walking up to the red mushroom," Hey Bernie, I'm back with some new items".
Bernie looked up at Yoad with a smile on his face,"Well we'll it's about time you brought something new Toad, these customers are bleeding me dry over here".
Toad chuckled before placing his bag on the floor and started pulling out some of the artifacts that he found earlier that day.
It took a few moments until the red mushroom noticed Luffy (who was grabbing and checking out random items from the shelves) standing right behind Toad.
Bernie leaned forward to whisper to Toad," hey buddy, you didn't tell me you had a new, strange lookin friend here with you".
It took a second or two before Toad realized what he was talking about," oh yeah, I almost Bernie. This is monkey D Luffy,", he then turned to Luffy," monkey D Luffy, this is Bernie, one of my oldest friends and co-owner of this antique store".
Movie put down the item and turned to face Bernie before waving at him,"Hi I'm Luffy".
Bernie responded by slowly waving back at him before turning to Toad," so I take it that this strange thing is not one of your new finds", he asked curiously.
Toad shook his head,"Nope I ran into him in the forest and he's in trouble and I'm taking him to see the princess".
Bernie Rosa browe at the explanation," the princess what's the song about and is it that serious"?
Luffy spun around, shot his arms up into the air," YEAH, BECAUSE THIS "BULAR" GUYS GOT MY FRIENDS SO I'M GONNA KICK HIS ASS!!!!!",Toad tried to put his hand up to stop Luffy but it was too late, he already shouted that sentence loudly, very loudly.
Bernie froze at what he had just heard.
A few other mushroom people walking by had stopped and turned, gaping at him in awe.
"What did he say"
"Did he just shout out his name"
"Wait what is he"
They began to whisper and gossip to one another and it was starting to cause a small commotion.
Toad slapped his hand on his face in frustration.
Had he really just said that out loud, In front of everyone here.
The last thing Terrell wanted to do was cause too much of a commotion.
All he wanted to do was to get Luffy to the princesses tower.
And it wouldn't be a good thing. If everybody in the village knew about the current situation going on, they'd all go into a panic.
Bernie (who had been frozen in fear after what came out of the young man's mouth) stepped out of his trance, and instantly ran over to the front of the store and grabbed the cover door,"(Chuckles)sorry everyone, just an idiotic friend telling jokes just called for a little bit. Come back later", he said before slamming it shut, and putting the closed sign on the outside door.
Toad quickly turned to Luffy in a panic,"Luffy when I said, keep a low profile, I didn't mean go off and get everyone's attention, especially not with his name".
Before Luffy could respond, Bernie grabbed Toad by the arm and quickly pulled him to the back of the store," HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND"?!!!!
Toad put his hands up in defense," look I know it may sound bad-".
"MAY, NO MAY ISN'T EVEN THE HALF OF IT, TOAD HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND, GETTIN YOURSELF INVOLVED IN THIS SITUATION, ESPECIALLY IF IT INVOLVED THAT MONSTER", Bernie shouted angrily.
Good tried to explain,"Look I know-".
"AND TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, YOU BRING IT DOWN YO OUR BUSINESS THAT WE WORKED SO HARD TO START ALONG WITH THIS MANIAC", but Bernie wasn't really making that easy.
"Luffy's not a maniac", Toad defended.
Bernie responded by pointing to Luffy, who was examining one of the items in the store when it accidentally slipped out of his hand and crashed onto the floor, shattering into pieces.
He panicked and quickly swept up broken pieces and slid them underneath one of the isles before turning away from the scene and quickly whistling loudly.
Unbeknownst to him however, Toad and Bernie already saw what he had done and both looked at him with unsurprised faces.
Toad slapped his hand on his face seeing that Luffy wasn't really helping his case.
Bernie turned to him and whispered,"He needs to leave and you should get rid of him before he goes off and causes any more trouble", Bernie sternly suggested.
"Come on, he's not causing any trouble. I mean for all we know he can actually just be a good person with a lot of good intentions", Toad said in a reassuring tone.
Bernie responded by pointing to Luffy again,"Yeah and he could always be a spy for "You know who" and you might as well be handing him all the information about our kingdom, especially if you're taking him to meet the princess".
Toad looked straight at him before turning to look at Luffy,"You don't know that".
"Do you", Bernie shot back,"Come on think Toad he just so happens to just arrive in the mushroom forest without any explanation to how he got there, unless he conveniently came up with some sobby backstory that got your attention".
Toad was about to say something back when he stopped and thought about that.
Was there more to Luffy's story that either he didn't know or wasn't told.
Was Luffy lying to him about how or why he was here just to come and get to the princess.
He looked over to Luffy (who was looking behind the register and before pulling out an apple and taking a bite out of it) when he turned to look at Toad and waved at him.
No that's not it.
There's no way Luffy would do something like that.
Though toad didn't really know him all that well, he could kind of tell just by the vibes that Luffy was giving off that he meant them no harm.
Also if that was really his intention then why would he even need Toad to get here when he could've simply killed him and snuck into the mushroom kingdom on his own cause let's be honest, the Mushroom Kingdom wasn't actually the most hidden place.
He wouldn't have needed to go through all this trouble just to get information or capture they're princess when he could've simply done that himself without Toad.
Bernie slapped his hand on his face," this ain't no game toad and you're not an adventurer, us toads aren't really meant to go on adventures, we're meant to stay here and serve the princess, and that does not include bringing random strangers who you met in the same day back to a Home when there's a current war going on right now what's an insane warlord who wants to take over the world".
Toad turned back to face Bernie," look believe me I understand why you feel this way, and it probably might make sense in some way, but you have trust me on this".
Bernie looked down to the floor after he said this, unsure of whether or not he should agree with this.
When he looked back up he saw Toad giving him a wide eyed puppy dog look,"Please", he said with a real high pitch tone.
Bernie grunted and groaned for a couple of seconds before throwing his hands up in the air, showing that he'd finally given up,"Ugh fine, I'll turn a blind eye this time, but the only thing you're gonna do is take him to see the princess, and nothing else, he doesn't come back to our store, whatever situation he's got himself into with that monster, he won't bring back here and he'll get it sorted out with the princess and the princess alone, are we clear".
Toad instantly hopped up in the air before giving Bernie a quick hug," thanks buddy I knew you'd understand?
Once he let go, Bernie dusted himself off," yeah, yeah whatever, but you got an hour to get him over to the princesses castle and get back here for your shift, if anything stirs up that's too much to handle I can't help you".
Toad, nodded at that," yes, of course you won't regret this Bernie", he said reassuringly.
" I hope not Toad, I hope not", he said before turning to the front and going to lift up the cover, but right before he did, he turned to Luffy," And you, do yourself a favor, and don't cost too much trouble while you're here. Hopefully the princess can help you with whatever situation you're in but after that we want you gone".
Luffy responded by nodding his head and smiling wildly,"Sure thing. Thanks again, Bernie."
Bernie chuckled and turned to the clothes store," don't take me just yet", he says before lifting up the cover and reopening the store.
There was a group of customers outside, waiting patiently, which was perfect for Bernie to get business back up again," ALL RIGHT EVERYONE SORRY FOR THE DELAY LET'S GET BACK TO YOU GIVING ME MONEY", he announced with a smile on his face.
He turned his head to Luffy and toad, who were still in the isles of the store, and quickly motioned them to get a move on.
They nodded and quickly ran out of the store entrance to continue on their way.
After a couple of moments, they start to slow down and Toad turns to Luffy ," hey sorry about Bernie he can be a bit paranoid about certain things, but he means well".
Luffy simply smiled and said"Don't sweat it, he kind of reminds me of how my crew is sometimes so I'm used to the web, and hey, at least he doesn't start beating you up".
Toad chuckled at that," yeah, that definitely does sound a lot better".
Toad then clapped his hands," all right Luffy, you ready to meet this princess and get the help you need", he asked the pirate captain.
Luffy's say switch from a goofy smile to a determined grin," Hell yeah let's do this"!
Toad smiled before turning around and pointing to the top of the only tall hill in this kingdom," the princess lives right on that hill and thankfully I got a shortcut to get there, so come", he said, before running forward towards the castle
Luffy nodded before running after him, trying to get there as quickly as possible.
After a few minutes of running through crowds, and across toad town they reach a certain construction site.
In this site Luffy saw some of the mushroom people wearing would look like constructive gear as they were working on some of the platforms in the town.
Lucy was about to walk in another direction, seeing as though it was nothing but a flat one in front of them, when Toad suddenly yelled out,"And up we go".
"Wait, upstairs?" Luffy asked in confusion to what he was talking about.
After taking a closer look, he saw that Toad wasn't on a concrete floor but on a platform.
It was an elevator!
An elevator that gates just closed and was about to go up.
Toad quickly motions for Luffy to get on before it's too late.
Luffy acts quickly and jumps onto the elevators and as it takes off,.
After a few moments of the short right, they were finally at the highest point.
And when they got off, they ran towards another platform but Luffy didn't see anywhere for the elevator to go.
Then, all of a sudden, it starts to move forward as in floating over to the other side surprising Luffy.
He didn't take very long for the platform to stop Midway right next to another platform.
Toad immediately jumped on and Luffy followed, but a little too late, because the new platform had begun to move forward, and Luffy hadn't stepped onto it causing him to fall and almost hit the pavement all the way back down to the ground.
But luckily, for him, he was quick, and his hand cut the side of the platform, and he basically bungee jump himself from the bottom back up to the top as soon as the platform reaches the other end and toe, topped off, goofy, jumped up in the air, and landed safely on his seat before running after Toad.
Toad had run over to another platform, which worked as a different elevator that moved slowly.
Luffy didn't get there in time because the platform Toad was on had already started to go up.
So he just decided to take the next one with this other random green mushroom person.
Once Toad had gotten off the platform, he turned to see Luffy, on the next one waving at one of his fellow toads.
Toad put two of his fingers in his mouth to whistle and get his attention.
Which worked because he jumped right off and ran after him.
"Come on Luffy just across these bricks", Toad said, before running across the floating brick bridge to get to the other.
Luffy quickly followed before looking down and was shocked to see the floating bricks he was walking on,"Whoa check out the view from up here".
After a little bit more running the duo finally made it to one of the main entrances to the castle grounds.
Which, luckily for them, just so happened to be a couple of clear pipes.
"Just get in this pipe and we're on our way just be sure to follow me so that you don't get lost cause believe me it's easy to get lost!"Toad shouted as he ran over to one of them.
Luffy had caught on in amazement to how many pipes there were,"oh"
"It's the only way to fly, man. Wow!" He shouts as he jumps in the one he ran up to.
He was cheering loudly in enjyas he was being taken through the pipes
Luffy grinned widely before taking a couple of steps back and running right into it, sucking him in.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" he laughed as he traveled through the pipes.
And as he was traveling through them, he was bouncing off every curve he had gone through laughing hysterically because he was having the time of his life.
"Woo!", Toad said in enjoyment as he too was being taken through the pipes.
After a little while of going through the pipes, Toad finally jumped out of it through a red end of the pipe, and then he instantly jumped up over the green entrance pipe, and into the blue one which led to the castle.
Luffy unfortunately didn't see which one Toad had gone through when he came up so be quick with instead he jumped into the first one he saw, the green one.
But since that wasn't the right one, he ended up going out of a blue entrance, which was right across from where he had jumped in.
He looked over to the pipe confusion, before turning, and seeing another entrance pipe, which was Red and he immediately jumped into it.
Which, yet again, caused him to come out of the wrong green entrance and fall flat on his ass.
He hopped up and ran into another green one to his left, which only ended up leaving him to the other right end of the pipe he just went through.
Oh, he once again ran into a red pipe entrance that simply led to him once again, falling flat on his his.
He got up and looked around seeing as he was in the same area he just a went through multiple times.
" Uh-oh!", he said in realization.
He was lost, which was the opposite of what he was supposed to be.
He looked around and saw all the countless pipes that surrounded him, which led to different parts of the kingdom.
This could take a while…..
And it did take a while…..
Toad was waiting at the top entrance annoyed at how long it was taking Luffy to get up here.
He was hoping that Luffy was fast enough to follow him, and that he didn't get lost.
Because that could definitely mess up their plan which they didn't have time to happen.
He was about to go in and check and see if Luffy was all right when just then, after having to go through so many pipes.
Luffy jumped right out of the pipe and cheered for joy,"WOO HOO I FINALLY MADE I-", he shouted before, unfortunately, falling flat on his face.
Flattening it once again.
Told backed up a little, surprised to see that Luffy was finally here on a zone in one," about time what took you so long? I was going to have a search party sent after you", he said, before turning in walking off.
"Sorry Toad, I got lost on the way up", Luffy sat apologetically with his face still on the ground.
He pushed himself up, put his hand on his nose and mouth and re-inflated his face once again
"Well, it's cool now cause Here we are! Palace gates. Big bang boom!", he shouted before running up to the palace,"Come on! Wow!"
"Whoa," Luffy said as he followed the toad as they were surprised by the castle.
It was gorgeous.
It was a tall tower supported by four towers along the outside walls. It was surrounded by a moat on top of the tallest hill in the kingdom. It had sort of a Melee and has a bit more of a brownish brick color to it rather than the whiter color but it did still mix well. Its highest tower was emerging from a wider circular tower underneath the castle and the main feature of the castle is a rectangular or square shape. And the roof is nearly a deep shade of red as Luffy's shirt. But most importantly, the castle was located on top of a mountain overlooking the entire Mushroom Kingdom.
Now this was truly a beautiful sight to behold.
"Pretty impressive, am I right?",Toad said as he ran across the bridge towards the castle.
It was almost like another strange kingdom from his world that he'd never seen before.
But now that he thought of it, there was one thing that he had yet to see, Humans.
In the last hour, he had been there, yet to see any other life, other than toad, who he just met and the other mushroom people and different creatures here.
Though they hadn't reached their destination quite yet, It was still strange to Luffy that there weren't any humans around.
But then, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a stained glass image of a blonde haired human girl with a pink dress near the top and front of the castle.
This caught Luffy's curiosity, not only was there another human here, but maybe that was made recently and maybe he could find her somewhere if she could possibly help him out if this whole princess thing didn't work out.
Luffy and Toad were just in front of the castle about to open in the entrance when suddenly…..
"Hold it right there, you two!"They were stopped by two guards.
The duo stopped in their place.
One of the guards steps forward,"The princess will not be seeing visitors at this moment and is busy with other affairs, so state your business, and be on your way.
Toad leaned over and whispered to Luffy," OK let me do the talking, and maybe we might be able to get past the skies".
Luffy nodded in response to this.
Toad then stepped forward in a more friendly gesture,"Oh hey! Billy, Jake how ya guys been lovin the new outfits by the way make you guys look nice and intimidating-".
Bang, one of the guards slams the bottom of his staff long to the concrete, for startling Toad a little," As my comrade had just stated we are in the middle of a crisis right now, so either state your business, or you and your…..", takes a quick look at Luffy before looking back at Toad,"Thing will be on your merry way"!
Toad chuckled nervously before continuing," Ah yes that business, well you see, we need to see…the princess. Because It's an emergency and-".
Luffy jumped in front of him,"Yah an emergency, and I need to see her right away".
Toad froze before calling out,"LUFFY"!!!, loudly, trying to keep him from getting the guards worked up.
The two guards took a step back at the strange, talking creatures outbursts before turning to each other, and smiling.
"What a princess?", the first guard asked..
The second guard stepped forward,"I have never heard of any princess".
"Oh wait, I did. However, our princess is in another castle", Said guard number one
Guard number two snickered"Oh yes, that's right".
"You should try another castle, maybe. She's not in this one."call number one said, shrugging his shoulders," and if my memory serves me she's right in that direction", he said, pointing in a random direction towards a field of hills.
Luffy nodded his head,"Oh ok thanks".
He was about to run off in that direction when Toad placed his hand in front of "Okay yeah, they're messing with you buddy".
Luffy after being told that stopped and looked at the two guards angrily.
The two of them then started snickering loudly seeing how gullible Luffy was.
After a couple more seconds of them, snickering, purposely clears his throat loudly to get their attention.
They soon stopped snickering, and got back to a serious posture.
" OK all jokes aside, we cannot allow either one of you to see the princess now at this moment due to urgent matters, so your request has been denied", guard number one said.
Toad quickly stepped forward, trying to plead his case," oh come on Billy this is serious we have to see her".
Billy the mushroom guard simply shrugged his shoulders," as am I, the princess of dealing with the situation, and she doesn't have time to deal with visitors especially ones that look so... strange", he was referring to Luffy.
"Sorry but until the princess's affairs have all been put in order, we are forbidden from laying anyone into the castle that includes foreigners and strange creatures, so you'll have to come by later", Guy number two explained.
That didn't sound anywhere near good.
Luffy couldn't wait that long, especially with his friends' lives on my mind.
He would've just punched through the door, but Toad, his friend, had been nothing but kind to him. The last thing he wanted was to hurt any of Toad's friends, especially ones that didn't cause a threat to him.
But if he waited too long and didn't see her before it was too late who knows what will happen.
He didn't really have much of a choice.
He didn't have to hurt them anyway, all he needed to do was just get past them, which probably would be more than easy.
Luffy balled his fist and stitch for preparing his next move, when suddenly Toad put his hand five movie, stopping him and his tracks.
toad, then shot him, an "I got this" look before putting his arm down and stepping forward.
"Do you know my friend over here really wants to help his other friend out and right now he needs help and you're not gonna give it to him, and you know what...I don't like it", Toad then pulled out a frying pan and shouted as he lunged forward shocking both mushroom soldiers for what was about to happen.
But it wasn't what you would expect.
Instead of attacking them, he built, and started t a fire pit, pulled out some cooking supplies, some little chopped up vegetables like squash, potatoes, and little tomatoes. Grab some cooking utensils from his bag, And started to stir frying some vegetables with his pan that he had pulled out.
He wasn't trying to attack them, he was trying to make them food?
"What do you guys um.....? What do you want to eat? Anything, anything your heart desires", Toad ass, as he was preparing the food.
Luffy looked at him with confusion but shrugged his shoulders and went to grab some food off the pan.
Told saw this and slapped his hand before looking at him,"Go", he whispered somewhat loudly to the pirate.
Then, Lucy finally got what Toad was doing, he wasn't just making food. He was trying to distract them and give Lucy the opportunity to sneak inside.
"Wow! And let's stir it up because I am ready to scramble it up", he said try to distract them.
Luffy nodded at him before rushing in quietly without attracting attention, but suddenly he saw two more guards sitting on the side, having a conversation.
Luffy was still able to pass them when they let him through as they saluted him, thinking it was their superior (even giving him the chance to wave at them friendly).
But then five seconds later they realized that he wasn't their superior, and he wasn't supposed to be in there, so they quickly grabbed their spears and ran after him,"Hey! Intruder!"
Luffy saw this and started to run down the hall but unfortunately for him he ran into more guards.
The extra guard saw him and ran after him as well,"Stop him!"
"Stop him! After him! Whoops! Stop him!" They continue to shout.
Lucy was laughing at himself silly as they chased him down the halls.
But he didn't care because he was on his way to meet the princess and get the help he needed.
