184 Two mechanical hands

The agents and the CP9 immediately went on high alert mode and turned their heads to see who was talking. It was The Strawhats. The CP9s didn't expect that the enemy would reach so close to them without even noticing.

The agents pulled their guns and pistols and pointed it at the Straw hats. There were a handful of agents in the station and in the coach so everyone ran out and saw the commotion.

"Straw Hat.." Lucci mumbled.

"Yo.." Luffy shouted. None of them were scared seeing the guns being pointed at them. They all jumped down on the station while slowly walking towards the CP9 agents. The other agents shouted.

"Pirates, this isn't the place for you. Run away or you will be shot at."

"Scummy pirates.. Run back to the filth you came from."

"This is official work of the World Government. How dare you come here?!"

The straw hats didn't seem to be bothered with it at all and had a discussion among themselves.

"Ken, we will fight this time." Chopper declared.

"Yes. I want to progress faster." -Nami

"So cute this CP9 woman is.. <3" -Sanji.

"Oye Ussop.. You sure he isn't your brother?" -Zoro while pointing at Kaku.

The other agents also heard their discussion and got incense. They were being ignored when they had guns in their hands. Without any fail, the agents shot at the Straw Hats.

*bang* *bang* *bang*

*ratatatata*

Multiple shots were heard as everyone just made it a point to teach the Straw hats a lesson. But in the next moment, even in this windy and rainy time of the night they including the Straw Hats saw countless bullets levitating in the air in front of the Straw Hats.

The bullets seemed to struck some kind of barrier before reaching the straw hats and not a single one of them was able to penetrate. Seeing this the agents gulped down their throats and even the CP9 agents had a serious face now.

"Devil fruit?"

"What kind is it ?"

In response all they heard was.

"Shinra Tensei"

And in the next moment, all of the bullets returned to the same placed they were launched from. All the bullets were returned back at the same speed. The agents were immediately struck with the bullets and blood flew everywhere. Some of the agents were quick to response and duck on the ground but a majority of them were brought down by the flurry of bullets.

Some of the stray bullets struck the CP9 agents but that didn't seem to bother them as they had used Tekkai to stop the bullets from hurting.

"Oioioiyeee... They have a great devil fruit. Its sad that the scummy pirates have such a powerful devil fruit. Its a sin. I will kill myself as penance." -Kumadori said as he stabbed himself with the staff only t his body to use involuntarily use Tekkai.

Such hypocrisy!

Ken didn't even bother to look at the CP9 agents and looked at his hands. He had been progressing quite weirdly in his character. He had unlocked two more specialties from his eye power and this time too it was from the Rinnegan side.

"Wasn't Rinnegan supposed to be better than Sharingan? What the hell is wrong with my progression?" Ken wondered a bit but didn't think too much on it. He wanted to try the new move that he had recently gained.

Out of nowhere, Ken's sides of the shoulders tore apart and two additional hands from each side came out. This happened out of nowhere and everyone was caught off guard, even the Straw Hats.

"Ken? What the hell!"- Ussop

"What the hell are these creepy hands?" -Nami.

"Did another person just take birth inside Ken?" - Robin

Ken didn't reply to the queries but if anyone could see closely the news hands that Ken just produced they would notice that these hands seemed to be artificial. Both of the new hands were mechanical and each of them seemed to have some kind of small missiles attached to the hand.

This was the Asura path of Pain which Ken had just got his hands. Like Nagato, he had access to all the paths of Nagato and that too within his own body. The system had compensated his lack of Ten tails with the knowledge of all the six paths. So now that he had access to Asura path, he wanted to use it.

The skin of the hands receded mechanically and out of nowhere, the missiles launched. Some of the missiles landed on the agents, some went for the CP9 and some went straight to the engine. Blasts occurred in the next moment and it caused mayhem all around.

Even in this thunder storm raging by the side, the sounds of the blast were heard quite a distance. And this sound was heard by Paulie and the foremen. After Nami had rescued them, they had sneaked away in order to catch the culprits. They didn't want to tell about the betrayals to the workers and just took it upon themselves to take care of their own business. The blast attracted Paulie and they picked up their pace to the extreme.

The Straw Hats were dumbfounded seeing such a move from Ken. He had never showed this weird move before.

"Ken? This is awesome. You are a mecha robo.."

"Robo... Robo.. Ken.. Ken ..can you transform?"

"Ken.. You are a mecha?!"

Ussop, Luffy and Chopper had huge stars in their eyes looking at Ken. Ken had forgotten how thse guys loved any kind of mecha form and his two hands launching missiles were enough to bring them to 'orgasm'.

Meanwhile, the dust settled. The agents were scattered around with blood and bruises in their bodies. Some of them were half dead and some just lost consciousness in the impact of the missiles.

Only the CP9 agents stood like nothing happened.

"Rankyaku."

Two huge slices of compressed air traveled at very fast speed towards Ken. As the slices came close to Ken, there was a clink sound. The move was stopped by Zoro with his sword.
