45 Fire Fist Ace!

The crew was waiting for Sanji and Chopper while doing more planning, Mostly Vivi since this is her home. after some time, They saw a huge seagull approaching them.

*chirp* and doing a body language or gesture to follow

"Coo? do you want us to follow you? guys?" (Usopp)

"We'll find out, let's go! Zoro, you stay here and wait for the 2." (Nami)

"Uhm... Nami-san, I can't find Koby-kun!" (Vivi)

"Huh? What do you mean?" (Nami)

All of them searched for Koby but didn't found him, letting out a sigh. Nami continued to give orders. Usopp, Nami, and Vivi followed Coo while Zoro will stay.

They followed the bird until they were a little far from the town, They all wonder where will this bird take them and how did Luffy get there. The group can now see a house and 2 people beside it.

"Oiii! Luffy! Over here!" (Usopp)

"Aaah! Everyone!" (Luffy)

Usopp and Luffy waved at each other even they were still far away. and when they approached Luffy. Vivi can saw an islander that was beaten up. she felt curious about what happened here.

Luffy then explained to everyone in his own words that this guy is hoarding up the "Dance Powder" here. Vivi's eyes widen and were surprised by this, She felt angry towards this man since her Father had been blamed for having it, she was also surprised that there was some powder at the royal palace. She began to interrogate the man.

"Well, In any case! I'm hungry! Nami... Let's go to a restaurant!" (Luffy)

"Yes yes... Sanji and the others should be back by now." (Nami)

"Oi, Vivi what should we do with him?" (Usopp)

"I don't know! This kind of thing shouldn't be on this island!" (Vivi)

Vivi was clearly mad by this, and when the man heard her name, He quickly goes pale and it was noticed by Usopp who's expert at getting scared. Now, He felt more suspicious of this guy. He decided to test this guy.

"Hm... hey you. What do you think will the royal army do to you if they knew you got this huh?" (Usopp)

"..." (Villian mob)

"I bet they're going to buy this, All of them!" (Usopp)

"What are you saying Usopp-san!" (Vivi)

"So, if you can buy more of it, You will surely be rewarded! and tell me more about where did you buy this one?" (Usopp)

"hm.... Is that true boy?! That guy almost burned all my things. So, is it true?!" (Villian mob)

"Yeah, it is the Truth (lie)" (Usopp)

"Alright, I met this guy who worked at baroque works. He sold thi-" (Villian mob)

"BAROQUE WORKS!" (Vivi)

"Usopp, You got what you want, I don't want to see this guy anymore!" (Nami)

Nami consoled Vivi who again felt so helpless about the organization. Usopp and nodded and used his Usopp Hammer to make the man go unconscious, Luffy was not paying any attention to it but he felt angry since Vivi was really sad.

they went back to the town. Sanji had already got the supplies and clothes for everyone. Chopper was already there, Imagine the surprise of Vivi when she learned that the base of the rebel army is on the other side of this town and it was quite close. They almost missed it, And also Koby-kun is already talking with Koza? this is too much for her.

Sanji was really simping. He got the clothes for Nami~swan and Vivi~chan! It was clothes for a dancing girl here in Alabasta. Zoro as usual badmouths the cook and the 2 would fight next. Nami was also teasing Chopper for his sensitive nose by spraying perfume on her body.

Luffy and Usopp were drinking some water, Nami forbid Luffy to eat their supplies since they are going to a restaurant here.

The crew then walked and sightseeing the place of this island. Usopp and Chopper got interested in a golden apple that will let you live for 1000 years, It got exposed by Nami. Next, they saw a man who was topless and was looking for Luffy.

That guy went from one place to another to ask the citizen if they saw the straw-hat boy. Luffy was already eating at the restaurant with Vivi, Luffy's guide in this town.

Zoro and the others also saw marines here in this town. The crew knew it since it was Smoker and Tashigi. Sanji had already picked a fight with Zoro, he knew that girl and this marimo had a date at Loguetown. Nami shut them up and told them to hurry up to go to the next town where Koby is.

Luffy was really eating much. Vivi sighs at this. when suddenly someone was already beside them and also ate the food of Luffy.

"HEY! THIS IS MY FO-" (Luffy)

"Yo? it's been a while Luffy! As usual, you're at your own pace hahaha!" (???)

"Luffy, Don't start trouble okay?" (Vivi)

"If it isn't ACE! YEP, It's been a while!" (Luffy)

And the 2 embraced then resumed eating but this time, the 2 are contesting! Vivi was really curious about this.

----------------

At the rebel army's base. Koby had already put the suspicious men in one place outside the base. Koza already believed it since they had encountered some people who didn't want to be ordered to go to that place, a fight broke out but Koby handled it and showed them the tattoos.

That's why Koza and Koby are the only one here who's [Aura rhythm] is not chaotic. Koza felt nervous because of the numbers of the agents of the baroque work here in the rebel army.

"Attention everyone, There is a reason why are you all here. We discovered that there's plenty of spies are here in the army." (Koza)

The men were already whispering, Showing their true colors, many of them prepared their arms like knives and such. they don't have guns since Koza didn't let them have it.

Koby was looking at this scene, These men numbered close to 1000. Luckily those rebel army and royal army who deserted are also the ones who really loved this island/kingdom. hence their [Aura rhythm] isn't chaotic. He had already warmed up.

"That's why, as a people here in Alabasta, You should stop this and come out clean!" (Koza)

The baroque works agents were getting restless, the leader somehow knew about their covet operations here. they don't know what to do but to escape from here if the situation becomes dire for them.

"Stop it, Koza. It is now time for the bad cop! Let me try on being the bad cop this time hehe~." (Koby)

"Now then, If you still don't admit then, There's no choice but to check your tattoos right?" (Koby)

This time, they're checkmate. And so, these men charged at the 2, oops it became 6! Koby had let out Monferno, Grovyle, Usagi (lapahn), and Tora (giant tiger). Koby's face has also turned into feral and this team had wreaked havoc!

Koza was a normal human but courageous man since he led the rebel army. he was shocked by the strength of the boy and those strange animals that the boy had. Koza had also protected himself but it didn't come close to those who are knocked down by the team.

Koby used this time to practice his gun-fu technique of using pistols in close combat and adding [Aura Barrier] in his blunt attacks and also to defend.

(a/n: Zhou Zekia's technique from King's avatar.)

Monferno was the one who knocked down the most enemy and also burned them, A fire pokémon on a slugfest or battlefield was so destructive. Just Monferno's [Flamethrower] had already knocked and burned down many agents already. Monferno is also good at [Close Combat].

Grovyle was like an assassin in this battle. Using it's [Leaf blade] This pokémon had already cut up so many agents, and for the long-range attack, it has [Bullet seed] to fire. Grovyle was so fast that the agent didn't even know they got cut. This pokémon also has [Double team] to dodge and confuse its enemies.

Usagi and Tora didn't want to lose against the natural pokémon. together they also destroyed many of the agents, In fact, if Koby didn't want any bloodbath here, Tora would eat these hoomans who dared to attack its master.

This kind of thing is what Usagi wanted, To fight and fight more! it can see ahead, that its master and the monkey were far away and were strong. The lapahn resolved itself to follow them soon.

Koza didn't realize it when it was done. because even he would be scared for his life is this team would come for his life, what's more of a bunch of criminals and fugitives? these agents surrendered and Koby with his team stop their onslaught. Looking at his growth, He was really happy. It still isn't enough since Luffy handled more of these numbers alone in enies lobby. He would need to grow more!

Koza could see many casualties behind them when they confronted those who surrendered. the people are injured or even dead. he sighs then interrogated the agents. the 2 got their answers when these agents were ordered by their boss to make sure the war would continue and create chaos at the war. Koza didn't like it that this war was being controlled by a third party.

Koby calmed him down when he told Koza that they also need a third party to handle this. He explained that they are here to help Vivi. Koza nodded and went back to the camp to get his men. he needs to take care of this.

Koby looked in the direction of the town where his crew is. He can see a fire and smoke battling each other. He tried to remember from his vague memories of this battle. he sighs and will wait for Koza and the rest while guarding these agents. He really needs to have a healer pokémon.

-----------------

The crew is running towards the other town. they all have everything they need and Vivi would also need to talk with the leader of the rebel army.

They turned to watch the fire and smoke that was battling.

"Luffy~! Who was that guy? do you know him?" (Nami)

"Hm.. ace? Shishishi Yep! Ace is... MY Nii-chan! (older brother)!" (Luffy)

"Nii-chan?!!" (Everyone)

"But to think he ate a devil fruit, He really is strong to handle smokey like that!" (Luffy)

"He's a bigshot Luffy in this pirate age!" (Zoro)

"Don't care! I have gotten strong too, Ace is no longer my match!" (Luffy)

"Heeh~, Since when did you get stronger huh?!" (???)

Someone smacked Luffy at the back of his head, Luffy went down but immediately stood up and smiled at that guy.

"Aceee!" (Luffy)

"Luffy, where are you all going?" (Ace)

"To my Nakama! Koby's really amusing Ace, He got this monkey who breathes out flames and has a flame at its tail." (Luffy)

"Now that's interesting! we didn't saw this since we were kids!" (Ace)

The 2 went into trance just like the old days when they have one more person who hunts with them on the island.

The crew leaves them be and had their own time. They'll get some time to know the brother too.

Author's note:

Tried to highlight Koby and his team in this battle. The water Pokémons/animals will have their time.

Please don't be too hard if I don't get the attitude/personalities of Ace.
