Chapter 79

79

Sanji was the first one to jump forward, his feet already on flame as he kicked away the cannon fodders. "Diable Jambe." Setting flames with his kicks.

"Damn it, Cook," the green-haired swordsman muttered as he picked up one of the scattered swords. And with one swing cut three Fishman down along with their weapons. "Don't rush ahead. Save some for the rest of us."

"He's right, Sanji," the other man commented, his now-stopped weapons revealed to be tonfa with large iron balls on the ends. "It would be disappointing to have come all this way for nothing. We want to show off, too." Of course, Gin was also on his fourth target, his attacks would quite the crunch when breaking into Fishman's skull.

And he was called the man demon for nothing, as he already had a small smile on his face as if enjoying his work.

"Then you have to move fast," Kuina said flashing away from them as she wielded her white blade like a white serpent cutting through the enemy ranks. Freezing their wounds along with the targets.

The fishman screamed as they fell.

"These guys are though…" Coby muttered as he finished of the third Fishman, a claw through the chest. Right through the lungs… the Fishman would live, but he was out. He grunted pulling his claws out, and winching when he saw blood on his clothes. "Now, I have to clean up Fishman's blood."

"We will kill you brat." A Fishman, with tuna-like features, jumped onto Coby. Or at least tried to, until he was shot down by Usopp. "Uh…"

"Thanks, Usopp," Coby said, giving a thumbs up. Usopp returned the gesture.

"Hey, get the long-nosed bastard." The other Fishman said, pointing at Usopp. Several of them ran towards him.

"Not so fast." Usopp said, "Sparky, I chose you." he said pointing at the group of four fisman that was running towards him.

Sparky who was chilling on a nearby wall, rolled his eyes, and made a hand gesture. Yellow waves came out of his hands, slowing the Fishman down. Making it easy for the sniper to take them out.

Usopp grinned, Sparky devil fruit was amazing. It was able to slow opponents down. Noro Noro no Mi. Usopp found the powers of the fruit really interesting, and he wondered if he would be able to get a fruit of his own. Maybe one that would let him be a better sniper, and a brave warrior of the sea.

Sparky was mostly sitting this one out. He was enjoying the one-sided beating though.

"Stop right there, blondie," Chew grunted. "You won't get past me… chew." A light blue skin and light brown hair Fishman, that had an Arlong tattoo on his right arm and what looked like a blush on his cheeks. "Hundred-Shot Water Gun" With that he shot out water bullets all deadly.

Sanji easily evaded them, not out of concern. But because he didn't want to get his suit wet.

"Shut it, fish face..." And with one kick the fishman was a friend as he fell smoke came out of his face, and his eyes went white.

"Deep Fried!" Luffy whistled, causally punching another Fishman out while he was eating rice crackers.

"Chew!" Kuroobi shouted as he ran towards Sanji. "Fishman Karate…" but he was cut of by a shot to the head, which didn't fully knock him out but did make him take a few steps back.

A pink-haired boy with his claws out, ran towards him. "I will be your opponent." With that, he jumped toward Kuroobi. The Fishman at the last moment rolled away. He was one of the Fishman that killed people while he was here. So Coby needed to finish him of, but he was also one of the most powerful crew members of Arlong. So he needed to be careful.

His powers might let him take a lot of damage, but this place was filled with water, with a swimming pool right near it. He didn't want to get drowned right here.

Kuroobi who had rolled away, was about to stand up, but two other fishman smashed into his body slamming him into the wall.

"Three Swords Style: Oni Giri." The green-haired swordsman was on a roll, plowing through Fishman like a tornado. He finally had three swords. Though none of them were sturdy as his previous weapons.

The rest of the Fishman jumped into water, to get some advantage over the humans. But it wasn't going well for them. Arlong who was furious, was now actually getting worried thinking they might lose.

No… he shook his head. He won't lose to another human. Never again. He looked at Luffy, he was the main problem. But Arlong had a way to deal with him.

Sanji stood face to face in front of Arlong, who had his blade out. "Captain are you sure, you want to give this one to me?" he looked behind at the straw hat boy.

Luffy who was sitting over the body of five Fishman gave a thumbs up. "Go on… It will hardly be a fight for me." he said, shooting down a Fishman with air gun, who was in water trying to shoot Luffy with water bullets.

Sanji was strong, but Luffy wanted to know just how strong he was. Arlong should be a good fight for him. In the east blue Arlong was quite strong considering, he was from the grandline. Sailed his ship with the likes of Fisher Tiger and Jinbe.

But Sanji should be stronger.
