47 Chapter 47

[Sabo P.O.V

Back to when Ken just left]

Ken just disappeared into the sky.

"We will have to be careful when we enter the forest." said Urouge

"Are there strong people in there?" asked Ace

"I'm sure that we'll be able to beat them together, but they are really good at splitting a big group into little groups and pick them off like that." said Urouge

"How many are there?" I asked

"4. They are Enel's priests."

"Hm, I see. Alright, everyone, listen up. I'll split us up in four groups."

I usually take the lead when Ken is gone. Ace doesn't have the brainpower for that. And Deuce is smart enough, but not strong enough. He may act goofy and stupid most of the time, but he is an amazing strategist. He even teaches Ken a lot of strategies.

"Why would you do that? Isn't it better if we stay together?" asked Mikita

"But if they're able to split us up, we will have a problem. It's better to create our own groups."

"I guess that makes sense."

"We have exactly eight people, so there will be four groups of two. I have already thought up the groups, so listen up."

*WOOSH*

"Huh, what is falling from the sky?" asked Ace

We looked up.

"That's Van Augur." said Laffitte

"What! We have to do something, or he is going to fall to his death!" screamed Robert

"Sigh. This must be Ken's doing."

<Geppo>

I went into the air and caught Van Augur. I went back to the ground and let him go.

"It seems like fate is on my side today. Thank you." said Van Augur

"Np. Will you help us get back our crewmate."

"Of course. You and Ken saved me, so that's the least I can do."

"Thank you. Now that we have one more, this will make it a little easier. Alright, the first group is Ace and Mikita. The second group is Robert, Robin, and Van Augur. The third group is Deuce and Urouge. And the last group is Laffitte and me."

"Was there any thought behind these teams?" asked Deuce

"I just made sure that it is kinda balanced."

'It's hard to make small groups with our crew since we haven't had any teamwork training. I should talk with Ken about that.'

"I guess it'll work. I'm not expecting them to be crazy strong. I'm sure that Ken will defeat him quickly." said Deuce

*BOOOOOOM*

"What the hell was that!" screamed Deuce

"You shouldn't underestimate Enel. His power is immense." said Urouge

"Don't worry about Ken. He'll come out of this alive. He always has."

"Yeah, what am I worrying about. I doubt that he would even be injured." said Deuce

"Alright, let's split up with our teams."

*WOOSH*

We all disappeared in a random direction with our teams.

Laffitte and I are running towards the North-East.

"Didn't Urouge say that other time that there are multiple layers to this Island?" asked Laffitte

"Yeah?"

"So maybe if we go up, we can find one of those guys. I don't think that they'll all be on this lower part."

"Good idea. Let's go up."

<Geppo>

"Geppo."

We started going into the air.

There were a lot of clouds above us.

*WOOSH*

We went through the clouds.

"Look, there are a bunch of ruins. Maybe we can find something there."

"Let's go and look then." said Laffitte

We landed in the middle of the ruined city.

"Be careful, this place is full of traps." said Laffitte

"Yeah, I noticed. This must be where one of those guys is. He must be a coward if he sets up traps."

The ground suddenly started shaking.

"What is happening!?"

Suddenly a dome appeared around the city.

"The dome looks pretty sharp, so we should be careful around it." said Laffitte

I nodded.

A bald guy with sunglasses suddenly appeared on top of a building.

"My name is Ohm, and this is the Ordea-"

*WOOSH*

I kicked towards him, sending a huge wind blade his way.

He jumped into the air and managed to dodge the Rankyaku.

*WOOSH*

Laffitte suddenly appeared behind him.

*SLASH*

Ohm instantly turned around and swung his sword towards Laffitte's head. Laffitte used Geppo to jump back.

Ohm landed on the ground, and I instantly went after him. I grabbed my pipe from my back and swung it towards him.

*CLANG*

He blocked it with his sword.

*BAM*

Laffitte appeared at his side and kicked him away. He flew into a building.

"Not bad for our first time working together like this."

"It's certainly not bad." said Laffitte

Ohm stood up and looked at us with disbelief.

"Who are you guys!?"

"Hehehehe, how about we show him who we are, Laffitte."

"With pleasure."

*WOOSH*

He disappeared.

Ohm started looking around. He clearly doesn't know where Laffitte is.

(An: Even though Ohm knows Haki, we all know what Laffitte is capable of.)

He appeared behind him.

*BAM*

He kicked him in his back, and Ohm flew towards me.

I held my pipe like a baseball bat.

*BAM*

I hit him straight on his head, sending him flying high into the sky. He hit the ceiling of the dome and got stuck int the sharp edges of it.

"Homerun!"

"Hahaha, good shot, Sabo."

"It was nothing."

*FISTBUMP*

"What should we do now?" asked Laffitte

*WOOSH*

Ohm started falling down.

*BOOM*

He fell onto the ground.

*SLICE*

Suddenly a lot of sharp threads appeared around him, slicing him into little pieces.

"Ugh, I almost vomited."

"What are you talking about? It's a beautiful sight to behold." said Laffitte

"I sometimes question if you're even human on the inside."

"And what if I'm not?"

"Then you'll still be my friend."

He smiled.

"Good to know."

"Let's go somewhere else. I don't want to stay here."

"I'll go and find the switch to get rid of this cage." said Laffitte

"Alright, I'll be waiting for you then."

*WOOSH*

He disappeared.

After a couple of minutes, the ground started shaking again, and the cage went away.

Laffitte appeared in front of me.

"Good job. Let's go a little more up and see what we can find there."

He nodded.

We started using Geppo again to go up.

*WOOSH*

We went through the clouds again and appeared in another place with ruins.

"Let's look if we can find something interesting."

He nodded.

[This will be the last chapter…

...that I'll upload on Monday and Tuesday.

I'm really busy with school on those two days, so I won't upload on those two days. I could finish a chapter after school like today, but I won't be able to write the chapters as I want. Take this one, for example. I was planning to finish Sabo's P.O.V. in this chapter and have them find Ken. But since I don't have enough time, I couldn't do that.

I hope you guys understand. I'll see ya all on Wednesday then.]
