Chapter 56 - Who is Bob?

"Crocodile, It's like you said Bob came back to see Koza. Luckily Mr. 2 was already disguised as Koza and took over the rebel camp. Now things will go on schedule. Mr. 1 and Miss Doublefinger have made contact with Bob. Things will be taken care of shortly."

Crocodile looked at his cigar.

"Good, keep me updated."

"About Koza, what should we do with him?"

Crocodile looked at the man.

"Do I have to tell you everything? Lock him up. We'll let him witness the birth of a new king. Then we'll kill him."

While Crocodile was already envisioning himself sitting upon the throne, a fight between John and Mr. 1 was taking place.

John dashed toward Mr. 1 and slashed his sword at him. Mr. 1 blocked the blow, but he slid back a little due to the power behind the blow.

"You're a bit stronger than I imagined, I should take this more seriously. Sad to say that slashing or cutting me wont' work, my body is as hard as steel."

Mr. 1 said as a blade of steel emerged on his forearm.

"Then i'll just have to cut through your body like i'm cutting through steel!"

John said with a smirk on his head.

Mr. 1 rushed towards John and started a flurry of attacks. John kept moving back while he blocked each attack.

Mr. 1 lowered his body and kicked towards John as his leg turned into a blade of steel. John managed to dodge it as he leaned back.

"Hey now, I can't let you be the only one going on the offense."

John said as quickly made an attack with Amane.

Amane hit Mr. 1 in his chest but caused no damage. Instead Mr. 1 was pushed back.

"Hmm, i'll try something new."

John said as he held onto Amane with both hands and took a stance with Amane pointing forward. It seemed like he would thrust Amane forward but he didn't.

John looked over at Bob for a second and grinned.

"Bob, when I defeat him won't that mean i'll be a man who can even cut through steel?"

Bob shook his head and laughed as he recalled something.

Zoro said the same thing before when he fought against this guy.

"I don't think that's how it works."

John snorted.

"Whatever."

Mr. 1 ran towards John.

"Sparkling Daisy!"

"Tidal Wave!"

John said.

Bob could tell he was mocking Mr. 1 in a way, due to the tone in his voice when he said his attacks name. It was probably something John just came up with on the spot.

Boom!

The two of them collided causing the sand all around them to fly all over.

There was so much force behind John's attack that all the sand behind Mr. 1 actually rose like a tidal wave and crashed against the building.

Bob saw it, for a split second Amane's sharp edge was covered in haki.

John grinned as he saw Amane slice through Mr. 1's hand like it was nothing.

Mr. 1 stood there with his mouth wide open. His eyes seemed to want to pop out from their sockets.

"Guess making your body into steel isn't much. Next time, try diamond you'd be much harder to cut through."

John said as he began to sheath Amane.

The moment he put it back in its sheath, Mr. 1's body split in two halves.

Even Bob was greatly surprised.

"John what was that?"

John smiled and rubbed his nose.

"I got inspiration on sea when we got caught in this storm. The water was surging so heavily that a large tidal wave came towards our ship. We couldn't dodge it, we thought we would be sunk. At that moment, I put everything I had into one attack and slice the wave in two. Thanks to that we ended up surviving."

"Cutting a wave? Impressive."

"Haha, thanks man. Come, continue to praise me."

Bob shook his head.

"First Ash, now you. You guys truly have no shame!"

Bob and John both laughed.

"Sasha's doing pretty good."

John said as he watched Sasha and Miss Doublefinger fight.

"Yeah, she should put more power behind her attacks. She's doing a bit of unnecessary movements, but so far things are in her favor."

Miss Doublefinger made her hands large and into spikes, but Sasha didn't care. She dodged Miss Doublefinger's attacks and countered with her own.

The moment Miss Doublefinger was shocked by Mr. 1's death was Sasha's moment to strike.

She jumped into the air and swung her body around causing her leg to act like a whip. The impact of the blow was enough to cause Miss Doublefinger to crash into a building. Sasha didn't stop there as she landed on the ground and jumped forward.

Her knee hit Miss Doublefinger in the stomach. Miss Doublefinger coughed up blood and Sasha took her palm and hit Miss Doublefinger under her chin.

"Ouch!"

John said as he watched the fight end.

"Guess you can turn these two in. Look at you, making money while i'm sitting here poor."

"These guys are worth money? How much?"

John asked.

"I forgot, but you should be able to make a 100 million with both of them."

"Great! I'll meet you back at base. Imma borrow Sasha for a bit too, can't carry both of them."

John looked towards Sasha.

"Sasha! Grab her, we are turning these two in!"

Bob shook his head and walked away.

With two agents down, Crocodile would be more cautious when he made moves against Bob.

Ten minutes after the fight ended, a man walked into Crocodile's office.

"Crocodile! Mr. 1 and Miss Doublefinger have been defeated!"

"What?"

Crocodile clenched his fist.

"Who is this Bob? How did he manage to take out both of them?"
