308 I am one of the Straw Hats

Law and Ken slowly walked towards the huge castle that was in the upper part of Dressrosa. While the arena battles were being played out, something else was happening elsewhere. Vivi and Kinemon while on their search actually came across Kanjuro and Kinemon was beyond delighted. Apparently he had broken off from the encampment and was able to find his way out. 

Vivi was happy to see that Kinemon had found his friend. All they needed to do now was destroy the factory. But thankfully Franky who was in his search mode was able to locate the factory. And it was there he met the famous Senor Pink. 

But before that he had already met with the Tontatta tribes, or the small fairies, as Ken liked to call them. The two teams of Ussop and Robin had already met them and came to know of their princess being captured and forced to work with. Thus Robin immediately contacted with Franky who at the end was able to get in touch with some of fighters of Tontatta tribe and was able to get their support. 

When Franky came forward to destroy the whole building, the guards came to stop them and he took care of them quite easily. But then, Senor Pink showed up and Franky was a bit overwhelmed by the way he did. 

Swimming from underneath and not attacking from behind. Franky didn't expect that kind of man to face in his fight to destroy the ship. And thus this was where the fight began between him and Senor Pink. 

"Well, well, looks like we got ourselves a metal man. Ready to dance, tin can?" Senor Pink said as he adjusted his baby bottle and said. The women around of course were cheering for him and that too in a sexual way. 

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Franky was confused about why he didn't attack.

"A man only sneak attacks a woman's dress from behind and never in other forms." Senor Pink. 

"Are you stupid or something?" Franky couldn't help but shout at him. Senor Pink didn't reply but with sudden burst of speed, Senor Pink charged at Franky delivering a flurry of rapid punches. Franky, however, effortlessly blocked the attacks with his cybernetic limbs. 

Franky now could change between cybernetics and real body because of the two characters he had received. Tony Stark and Victor Stone. Since he was in battle mode at the moment it was better to be in his strongest mode. 

"You'll have to do better than that, amigo," Senor Pink taunted, ducking under a powerful swing from Franky. "I've taken on tougher guys than you!"

Franky responded with a barrage of energy blasts, forcing Senor Pink to evade and weave through the destructive onslaught. The Smile factory's walls shook as the two clashed, their powers colliding in a spectacle of clinking of metal and determination. 

Senor Pink had already been hit couple of times from the energy blasts and he knew that he couldn't take it for more time and thus decided to take the next route. He had eaten the swim swim fruit which allowed him to swim on any place and thus any solid ground was a swimming pool for him. He dove down into the ground and in a very fast motion he reached Franky from underneath and proceeded to tackle his legs and swim at a faster rate. 

Senor Pink knew that Franky could fly so he was trying to smash him at the wall of a nearby building. And Franky could see what Senor Pink was up to and thus was able to stop this progress by using his under shoulder thrusters to stop himself. Senor Pink saw his speed lessen down and before he knew it, the thrashing of Franky on a building wall was a failure. 

So Senor Pink tried the next thing and that was pulling down into the ground but that too stopped because Franky blasted at Senor Pink, making the whole ground burst open and thus there was no place to swim for Senor Pink. 

"Nice try, but you can't out-tech me," Franky said.

Senor Pink chuckled and cracked his knuckles again. "Maybe not, but I've got more than gadgets, metal man. I've got style!" He had blood flowing down his face and body but he still seemed to be on style always. 

While they were going to fight again, there was a sudden whirlpool beside them, and in a moment's notice a person appeared. It was Ken. Ken was on his way towards the huge castle of Doffy and he always knew what was going on. He had listened to how Luffy had won in the arena and won the devil fruit. 

And now that he was listening to the fight between Senor Pink, he couldn't just sit straight so he asked to be excused a bit by Law. Of course, Law was very unhappy and wanted to stop him but Ken didn't bother to listen. 

The original traits of Straw hat pirates rubbed off on him too!

"Ken, what are you doing here?" Franky asked as soon as he saw Ken appearing near him. Senor Pink, who had all the courage before in order to take down Franky, deflated a bit after seeing Ken. Ken was a fearful individual who had taken down even Sengoku and he was rightly feared. 

Even by his Young Master. 

"I heard about the fight between you two so I had to come and see with my own eyes." Ken said. While Franky and Ken exchanged words, the other guards who hadn't been taken down by Franky, started shooting at him. 

The bullets came close to him before stopping. And then the same bullets were sent back the same way they came from. Some guards were directly hit, while others ducked. 

"Fuck, I thought I could surprise him." 

"Are you kidding? You want to surprise Punisher Kenny. Haven't you seen his fight in the Paramount War?"
