162 161. Enraged Army

Sanji suddenly make flame on his foot, and then send a kick to Luffy's face. Jon is not happy, and he block Sanji's kick with his foot.

"Don't anger me Sanji! You won't be able to take the consequence. Not you, or even the whole Germa."-Jon

Jon's clones suddenly appear behind every Vinsmoke. They put kunai with haki on the Vinsmoke's throat. The clones also hold the Vinsmoke's head and put pressure on their skull, ready to break it when Jon give his command.

Jon has prepare many clones in case something go wrong. He never thought that it would be Sanji that make him use his clones. This is different from their usual scuffle on ships, where they often fought, so Jon will not tolerate it.

"!? Since when?"-Reiju

"Just now. Too bad you don't have Observation haki, but even if you have it, you still can't detect us."-Clone A

Ichiji, Niji, & Yonji try to attack the clones, but the clones won't let it happen. The clones put them on genjutsu, because it's the fastest and easiest way. They stop and fall unconscious instantly, except Ichiji that still awake for a moment.

Jon had polished his genjutsu for 2 years, so it is not weak. Altough his genjutsu is not at Itachi or even Shisui's level, but it sure is high enough. He just need close range to make his genjutsu very potent.

"Sanji, get back! Let's not make a ruckus before we meet Big Mom."-Judge

Sanji return to the carriage and join the Vinsmokes again. Jon's clones get back and the carriage start to move again.

"SANJI, I WILL WAIT HERE UNTIL YOU COME, AND WILL ONLY EAT YOUR FOOD."-Luffy

"SANJI! You're the one that take away everything you have. Remember this! You have choices, but you never consider it."-Jon

"..."-Sanji

Germa's carriage go to Whole Cake Chateau, leaving Jon, Luffy, & Nami there. Jon know their location has been exposed, but they can't go anywhere. Luffy want to stay there and wait Sanji, so Jon won't leave him alone.

"Sigh, Luffy, i'll tell you this, it will be a hard choice for Sanji. I've already found out that Germa has sent assassins to East Blue. They'll kill all staff in Baratie if Sanji didn't do what they asked."-Jon

"Then i'll-"-Luffy

"Even if you want to protect them, there's not enough time to go there. I've already asked East Army's help, but they're professional assassins, so it will be hard. If you want to get Sanji, then convince his blood family, but it will be hard."-Jon

"Then what should we do?"-Nami

"You need to ask what Sanji really want first, don't immediately ask him to leave with us. But i warn you, he might still won't say his real thoughts."-Jon

"It's fine, i'll still ask him. I believe in Sanji, and he will go back with us."-Luffy

Suddenly, a storm appear at the outskirt of Sweet City. Then many homies that shaped like humanoid Chess pawn appear. They have weapons and seem hostile toward the Straw Hats. Jon then create a Violet Flame barrier around them.

"Just let them get burnt. It is a waste of time to fight these many enemies. They're not even real living beings, just some puppets with souls."-Jon

"Will this barrier hold all of them?"-Nami

"If they can deplet my clones chakra, then yeah. They will need to sacrifice many homies though. The other way is to destroy this barrier in one strike."-Jon

"Did you find Chopper & Carrot?"-Luffy

"Not yet, they're in different dimension, so i can't even connect to my clones."-Jon

The Chess soldiers try to attack the barrier, and they got burnt. The Straw Hats didn't even need to raise a finger with this barrier around them. Jon like to fight, but he won't waste energy on these homies.

Then, many human pirates come and attack the barrier with their devil fruits. The barrier still hold their attacks, and even burn some people. These idiots think that they can protect their body from the flames heat with haki.

2 hours passed, and Jon's barrier still stood strong. With Jon's chakra capacity, his clones also have high amount of chakra. They still have half of their chakra even with all those attacks in 2 hours.

Finally, the Chess soldiers are defeated completely. So Jon predict that Big Mom's kids will start to appear. He is right, because suddenly 2 big guys come and immediately attack his barrier.

Their attacks are strong and crack the barrier, but it repaired instantly, altough it take more chakra from the clones. Jon know it will not be long before his barrier break with some of Big Mom's kids here. Jon tell Luffy to get ready, and he create a clone to protect Nami.

Jon draw his swords, and go to the front with Luffy. It's time to prove that they're a real threat for an Emperor. Jon also grin and decide to try his new tactic. He will use chakra scalpel on his swords rather than elemental chakra.

"It's the first time i use this method in battle after i succeed to use it on swords a week ago."-Jon

"What is it?"-Luffy

"A new method that can cut the muscle without any wound on skin. If i'm right, it can even make Armament hardening useless."-Jon

Jon had thought of this theory since a year ago. If this work, then it will be easier for him to fight strong enemies. However, he know there are some weaknesses too. He can only do it if his sword touch enemy's body, and he need precision to give fatal injury by striking the right place.

'Flying attack won't work when i use this technique, but it's not a problem. I don't use flying attack that often afterall.'-Jon

Jon see outside the barrier & see Big Mom's kids. He see a lot of them and many high ranking officers there. Jon grin widely, he is very excited to fight these guys. They're very different from the chess soldiers earlier. They must've come to avenge their brother, Cracker.

The Charlotte family & their officers bombard the barrier. They use long range attack to avoid touching the barrier. It take 15 minutes for the barrier to be destroyed by the bombardment.

Jon & Luffy get ready, and Jon has make a barrier to protect Nami. This battle is too much for her, so he make a barrier and assign a clone to protect her. Jon's clone use Uchiha Flame Formation that protect a small range, but very effective.

After the Violet Flame barrier broke, Jon & Luffy move to fight the Big Mom's pirates. Jon activate his Yin Seal, mangekyou, and lightning mode. Luffy use his Gear 2nd and cover his hands with haki.

The Charlotte Family start to attack, with Mont-d'Or give order to them. Jon make 20 wood clones to fight the high number of enemies. They run to each other and clash, the battle has started.

Jon get underground and erase his presence. With all those clones, no one know which one is the real him. Jon move fast to the rear side of the enemies. To win a war easily, you need to take down it's General or strategyst first.

Jon come behind Mont-d'Or and cut his ankle. The unsuspecting guy fall behind and Jon stab his right chest from below. All Big Mom pirates are surprised to see Jon appear on their rear.

"Sorry, but i always attack enemy's base first and take down their Generals & strategyst."-Jon smirk

"Ba-bastard."-Mont-d'Or

"Save your breath, or i'll really kill you."-Jon

Jon flow chidori on his sword and electrocute Mont-d'Or until he pass out. His siblings immediately run toward Jon to save their brother. However, Jon make some famous hand seals.

"Mokuton Secret Technique: Deep Forest Emergence!"-Jon

A lot of trees start to grow and capture many enemies. Only some of Big Mom's kids that succeed to avoid the surprise attack. But it's fine, Jon has finished his first step in his strategy.

Jon has put chakra draining seal on his jutsu earlier. So the trees will drain the captured one's chakra and send it to Jon. Now Jon have big chakra source that will help him in this battle.

Jon & Luffy then attacked the ones that survived from the capture. They all are the stronger ones from Big Mom's kids & officers. Jon run forward to attack, and some Charlottes confront him. They're Amande, Raisin, Mukuryu, and the 10 Decuplets.

"13 vs 1? Isn't this too much for a 400 million bounty like me?"-Jon grin

"There's no fair fight in pirate world."-Amande

""That's right.""-Decuplets

"How ruthless."-Jon still grinning

On the other side, Luffy is fighting Opera & his quintuplet brothers. Some other Charlottes try to attack Luffy, but Jon's clones stop them. Luffy didn't want to eat anything again until Sanji come back, so he need to save his energy.

"Bankai: Tensa Zangetsu!"-Jon

Jon coat his sword with haki, then he go offensively. Jon attack Amande, then when Raisin try to attack him, he spin his body and kick Raisin.

"Zoro technique, Nitoryu version: Tatsumaki!"-Jon

Jon spin his body on the ground and create a wind blade dragon twister. It's not as strong as Zoro's new Tatsumaki but it's enough to separate the Charlottes. Jon flicker to Raisin and he cut Raisin's wrists with his chakra scalpel sword.

"As i thought, it can pass through armament defense."-Jon

"AARGH, F*CK! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY HAND?"-Raisin

"Guess!"-Jon

Jon didn't do anything else and flicker away, right at the time to avoid Mukuryu's sword attack. Raisin can't wield his sword again, so it's one enemy less. Jon flicker on top of the Decuplet siblings and push them down with wind jutsu.

"Fuuton: Great Breakthrough!"-Jon

""AARGH, DAMN!""-Decuplets

"Get away from there!"-Amande

*clang*

Amande jump at Jon and their swords clash. Jon got pushed back and flung to the ground. Jon crashed to the ground, but he get up again. Amande attack again, and the Decuplets suddenly merge into one big body.

Jon keep fighting back & forth with them, for an hour. He keep pushing the Decuplets & Mukuryu, but Amande keep hindering him. She is strong, and very skillful with her sword. Jon change his strategy, and sheath his swords, then he make pistol gestures with each of his hands.

"Raiton: Lightning Gun!"-Jon

Jon shoot lightning gun at the Charlottes at fast rate. They try to block, but got electrocuted, so they try to avoid the bullets. The Charlottes can't counter recklessly, and try to find an opening.

However, Jon suddenly stopped, and he have a cold face. Jon disappear with his Soru Flicker, confusing the Charlottes. Jon suddenly appear near Nami, where some Charlottes attack the barrier. There are Galette, Mascarpone, Jocarpone, and an officer, Bobbin.

They bombard the barrier, make Jon's clone can't fight back to maintain the barrier. Jon appear right behind Mascarpone & Jocarpone. They're just about to thrust their naginata to the barrier, when Jon suddenly appear.

"NO! MASCARPONE, JOCARPONE, GET AWAY FROM THERE!"-Galette

""Huh?""-M&J

"Too late."-Jon

Jon stab their chest, right in the middle with his swords. The long necked siblings look at the sword that come out from their chest, then at Jon before they fall.

"I think i've made enough warning by putting a barrier here. No one allowed to attack our Navigator here."-Jon

"Damn!"-Galette

"Nami, you can use the thunder cloud right?"-Jon

"Yeah, but i can't pass the barrier too."-Nami

"Open it!"-Jon

The clone open the barrier and Nami send lightning to the cloud. Jon also throw a chidori at the cloud like when he make Kirin. The cloud create a loud rumbling sound, and then Nami swing her Clima Tact down.

""Combination technique: Thunder Beasts!""-Jon & Nami

Purple thunder beasts led by Kirin strike down from the sky. It strike the Charlottes at fast speed, and chase them even if they try to avoid. It also strike the quintuplets that attack Luffy, which have become triplets after 2 have been defeated.

The Charlottes got electrocuted, and some of the weaker ones pass out. The ones that survive are only Amande, Opera, & Counter. Jon & Luffy then release their Conqueror haki, and the Charlottes can't withstand it with their low health, so they pass out.
