'He's right.' she thought. 'I'm worrying too much.' "Thank you Usopp."
"Now come on! Pedal faster!" Usopp said.
"There's too many people on this lift!" the villager grumbled.
-Back at Drum Castle-
"Chess!" Wapol said. "Read back what I ate for breakfast this morning!" he ordered. Chess then pulled out a book and read back and read what Wapol had eaten: 2 cannons, cannonballs and gunpowder, and a house. "What kind of breakfast is that?" Sanji asked.
"I'll believe he eats knives," Greg said after seeing it happen before. "But no way can he eat all that."
"Think again." Wapol said with a grin. "I've eaten the Munch Munch fruit! Observe! MUNCH MUNCH SHOCK!" he cried out as he began to transform. "Everything I eat becomes a part of me!" he said as he transformed into a giant house with windows, a door, a chimney coming out of his head, and a cannon for each of his arms. "WAPOL HOUSE!"
"He turned into a house?!" Sanji asked in disbelief as Greg's glasses slipped down his face, revealing a wide-eyed expression full of disbelief.
"The show's not over yet!" Wapol declared as he eyed Chess and Kuromarimo. "MUNCH MUNCH!" he cried out before chomping down on them both and starting chewing.
"Now he's eating his own men?!" Sanji cried out as Greg's glasses slipped off completely and fell into the snow. "That's just mean!" Luffy said as Wapol danced around while steam came out of his chimney and arms. The door in his stomach then opened as a pair of voices came out.
"Behold! The strongest warrior of Drum Kingdom!" cried out the voices as the two men came out as one person. "CHESSMARIMO!"
"Are you sitting on his shoulders?" Sanji asked, not at all impressed. Greg just facepalmed after Luffy commented how that was awesome.
"Careful." Kureha said, getting their attention. "It's because of them that no one in this kingdom could fight back."
"Article 1 of Drum Kingdom: Those who defy the king are punished with death!" Wapol said. "After you're all dead, nothing will stop me from re-establishing Drum Kingdom! And I'll start with that quack's flag!" he said as he pointed his cannon arm to the sky. Just before he launched a cannonball however, he felt his spirit freeze up before he found himself down on one knee alongside Chessmarimo. 'W-what?' he thought as he felt like he blacked out for a moment.
"Don't even think about it!" Luffy growled as he glared at Wapol. Everyone was now staring at Luffy as a few of them rubbed their arms. Kureha stared at Luffy while Chopper backed up a step away from Luffy.
"What just happened?" Greg asked as felt colder than before.
"Something called Conqueror's Haki." Sanji said as he puffed on his cigarette to calm his nerves. He still wasn't used to that.
"You guys are nothing but a bunch of fake pirates!" Luffy said. "This flag is a symbol of faith! It's one that you pledge your life to!"
"That stupid pirate decoration?" Wapol laughed. "What kind of nonsense are you talking about?"
"It's only nonsense to you because you're a moron!" Luffy yelled. "Hmph. I'm a King. I don't have to listen to you prattle on about some stupid flag!" Wapol yelled as he raised his arm again. "If I say that flag comes down, IT COMES DOWN!" he shouted before firing a cannonball at the flag. Chopper watched in horror as the cannonball sped towards his father's flag before an explosion engulfed it. Wapol laughed as they all looked, only to see Luffy up there in front of the flag with a smoking hand out. "HUH?!"
"How'd he get up there so fast?!" Chessmarimo said as Luffy glared down at them. Chopper just stared up in awe at Luffy along with the others.
"I don't know who's flag this is, and I don't care." Luffy yelled. "This flag is a promise to risk your life! It's not a mere decoration you fly as a joke!" he said. "SOMEONE LIKE YOU WHO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT CAN NEVER HARM THIS FLAG!" Luffy roared with a mixture of rage and haki that caused both Wapol and Chessmarimor to shake where they stood. 'That's...a pirate?' Chopper thought. 'He's...amazing!'
"Hey Chopper!" Luffy called out with a grin. "I'm gonna kick their asses! You in?"
"Me?" Chopper asked.
"Moron!" Wapol yelled. "I'll blow both you and that flag to pieces!" he shouted.
"Hey fatso!" Sanji yelled. Wapol looked to see Greg jumping as Sanji spun a leg around. Everyone watched as Greg was now standing on Sanji's leg.
"Hope your aim's good!" Greg said.
"Don't worry!" Sanji said with a grin. "Bombadier SHOT!" Sanji cried out as he sent Greg flying towards Wapol with a kick before using a full body explosion. Smoke filled the area as Greg walked out of it as if nothing had happened.
"Nice kick." Greg said. Sanji grinned before Luffy started shouting.
"LOOK OUT!" Luffy yelled, but it came too late. Out of the smoke came to flaming arrows, each hitting both Greg and Sanji. Both fell to the ground in pain as Luffy jumped down and looked at them in panic. The snow put out the flames, but they were still bleeding. "You guys okay?!
"The wounds aren't fatal!" Kureha said as she walked over and looked at them. Greg got an arrow through his shoulder while Sanji got on in his thigh. "They'll need some surgery though."
"Thought that it...was gonna be that easy huh?" said a voice from the smoke. Everyone watched as the smoke cleared and showed both Wapol and Chessmarimo standing. Both were hurt from the blast, but not enough to be knocked out.
