[Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]
Third Person POV
Sabaody Archipelago, First Half of Grandline.
...
...
All members of the group quickly became fully alert with this new visitor.
"Who is this?" Nami exclaimed, shielding herself from the smoke.
"It's been a long time since I've seen this guy..." Rayleigh murmured with a nostalgic tone.
"You know him?" Yamato commented, sensing danger coming from him, even for her.
"It's been a really long time... Rayleigh..." The voice emerged from inside the smoke as it began to clear.
"I thought you were retired... Kong." Rayleigh commented.
"I thought so too, but I ended up working elsewhere..." Kong commented as he began to appear, showing his suit as a member of the World Government, he looked at the group, especially at Rayleigh. "So this is where you've been spending your retirement..." Kong commented.
"Something tells me you already knew that..." Rayleigh commented with a small smile.
"I won't lie, there are few things in this world I'm not aware of, but I never had a reason to come here and end you, after all your captain has been dead for many years and you seem to live a quiet life, stealing from a noble here and there while pretending to be a slave." Kong commented, crossing his arms, Rayleigh's activities had not been a secret to him through the intelligence he commands.
"Kong... Who is this..." Zoro asked quietly.
"He's the former fleet admiral... from the time Roger and us sailed the seas..." Rayleigh commented calmly.
"What?!" Nami, Vivi, Alvida, Bonney, Camie, and Hachi exclaimed together while Zoro, Yamato, Hugo frowned. Enel, Chouchou, Shirahoshi, and Baby-5 remained with neutral faces.
Luffy and Kizaru continued their duel in the middle of the outlaw district while they stopped for a second looking towards that side.
"Who is that?" Luffy couldn't help but ask amidst his flames. After all, he had never met Kong, so it was a surprise not to recognize him, but he certainly frowned at the strength of this individual.
"It seems Mr. Kong has also appeared..." Kizaru also commented looking towards that side.
"Kong?" Luffy heard Kizaru murmuring and looked at him seriously with those words, he knew of this name and who it was. "So the government sent reinforcements... and just this guy..." He spoke, but he didn't seem shaken at all, he was more excited. "This is interesting... I would very much like to fight him, but first we must finish our fight, so I will leave this to my companions and even Rayleigh, although I would not like him to fight for things we are responsible for ourselves..." Luffy commented in the air while still keeping an eye on Kizaru who was also looking at him at that moment, he advanced.
Once again they engaged in a fight while starting to explode the air with their blows against each other.
Kong looked at the explosions diverting the attention of the group in front of him to see those forces clashing. "So this is Garp's grandson... he is not bad at all, a shame that this power didn't fall into the hands of the navy..." He commented and noticed someone moving.
"It doesn't matter who he is... He's just a mortal." Enel murmured as he took a few steps forward.
"The user of the most powerful logia..." Kong looked at Enel approaching.
"Feel the power of a God! Hm?!" Enel spoke and transformed into lightning mid-sentence, traveling immediately to punch Kong, however what he saw before reaching the former fleet admiral was a fist colliding against his face, making him immediately fall backwards after that haki punch.
"This guy... How can he be so foolish..." Hugo couldn't help but comment as Enel's body dug into the ground, the fool had been getting beaten since he met Luffy and never stopped being arrogant the whole time.
"Now, you all will be captured and even you Rayleigh if you interfere in this, I've always turned a blind eye to you, but this matter will not be light." Kong threatened him.
"Hey, I have nothing to do with this, I'm just passing by before that damn mermaid gets on my back!" Bonney exclaimed, seeing that the situation was getting hard to handle.
Kong didn't care about that and stopped there, he was immediately going to carry out his mission, this group had been responsible for taking down 5 tenryuubitos besides their captain fighting with the admiral, so he had to capture all involved and charged at them.
He kicked the ground while Enel was still wreaking havoc, and he immediately lunged his fist against the group, but someone appeared in front of the group and collided with Hugo's hand, both fists using Armament Haki with their fists turned black. "You seem skilled with this Haki... but you still have a long way to go to reach my level." Hugo heard this and tried to increase his strength while his fist grew a rock to fortify it even further, but he felt the thunderous force of this man and quickly felt his body being pushed back with pain.
His body immediately dug into the ground like Enel's, and everyone else got into fighting stance.
Nami overcame her fear and faced this old man to protect her companions, as her claws materialized with her wings and she lunged at the enemy.
Vivi transformed her hands into two whirlwinds, Alvida readied her club with Haki, the same could be said for Yamato as she transformed into phase 1 of her Akuma no Mi.
Zoro immediately drew his swords while looking at the weaker ones. "You guys, get out of here," he said, and soon a huge paw landed next to him, breaking the ground.
It was Chouchou, transformed into Cerberus, immediately using his elements on the 3 heads, on his middle head, Baby-5 was perched while her arms transformed into various weapons preparing to attack along with Chouchou.
Zoro on the ground, decided to act and kicked the ground, charging at the former fleet admiral.
Hachi, along with Bonney, began to move away from there with Camie and Shirahoshi, trying to stay at a safer distance, while Rayleigh also stayed with them to protect them.
Immediately, the fight began, with Kong seeing all those attacks coming at him from all those people. He quickly dodged Nami's claws and jumped when the whirlwind that Vivi created headed his way, destroying even the ground. He saw two other women jumping in the air with their clubs. He put up both fists of Haki and began to clash against the weapons, creating an impact, while Alvida was thrown backwards and collided with the ground, far below the strength of that old man, and Yamato managed to hold up better, only moving back a few meters, and tried again to attack him, with him exchanging blows while she parried the attacks, trying to create her father's attack while her weapon began to create purple lightning.
Kong had to immediately move away from the fight against Yamato when a line of fire, lightning, a line of ice, and missile shots flew in his direction, having to dodge, and soon some missiles began to chase him in the air, while he caught one with his hands and threw it at the others, creating an explosion, but he was surprised that at the same time this happened, Zoro appeared with his blades, while spinning in the air, throwing energy from Odin.
That hit Kong, making him fall to the ground at high speed, while the whole area began to explode, creating a sphere of dark energy. It wasn't even a millisecond before he blasted out of the hole and landed a little distance away with his clothes quite dirty. He looked at it and simply brushed off some of the dust, but he was still quite well.
"He covered his whole body with Haki..." Zoro murmured falling to the ground after seeing that while attacking him, he had never seen anyone do such a thing until then.
Kong looked at the group still seriously and as he was about to attack again, the sky seemed angry when thunder began to appear. "So you returned to the fight... I never had the chance to face the user of this Logia in my life, so let's see what you are capable of..." He couldn't help but comment with interest still looking up at the sky.
It was at that moment that the sky shone even brighter and a gigantic bolt of lightning descended like a line of lightning, flying in his direction. That area of his was quickly exploded with a lightning bolt thrown by Enel, causing even more damage than Zoro had done.
Enel emerged from the hole with injuries, while his lips bled after Kong's attack, he was angry, but soon his Haki made him frown, after all, in front of the lightning, Kong reappeared, using Geppo.
Kong immediately saw huge rocks flying towards him, which he began to punch in the air as he exploded them, with Hugo launching them after emerging from the holes. The big man didn't stop there; he quickly sought his revenge with his fists against the old man and advanced in the air also using Geppo.
Their fists collided again. "These Six Powers techniques of yours... they're not from the Marines..." Kong immediately recognized this, frowning.
"..." Hugo did not respond.
"How did you get these techniques?!" He spoke and immediately made Hugo create a hole in the ground, as Enel flew toward him... as well as Zoro, Yamato, Chouchou, Baby-5, Vivi, Nami, Alvida, and a slightly more injured Hugo from the last attack.
"Forget that now. I'll find out later, but first... let's deal with everyone first, since this is getting interesting..." Kong spoke seriously, yet at the same time showing he was excited to be fighting all these people, then he advanced against them and a battle began.
"We should get out of here!" Bonney spoke desperately as the explosions and attacks began.
"You go ahead, I'll stay," Rayleigh said, looking at the battle seriously.
"Alright," Hachi said and started running with Camie and his friend. Bonney also started running with Shirahoshi, who looked thoughtful.
"I wanted to fight too," Shirahoshi admitted, but she didn't have her weapon at the moment.
While the battle started below, a line of purple fire and yellow light appeared in the sky at that moment while the battle between Luffy and Kizaru continued. It hadn't been long since they had passed through here. But their speed was so great that they made a full circle around the island while another two trees began to fall from their attacks, but they hadn't even touched the ground yet with the speed of both.
Luffy, attentive to the battle his companions had started with Kong as soon as they got close and in his field of Observation Haki, knew what was happening and had faith in his companions.
In a moment when he was exchanging sword blows with Kizaru, he heard Shirahoshi's words. He simply took a small thing he kept for the girl from his pocket and threw it. "Catch, Shira!" he shouted.
Shira was surprised by his voice even before the lines of attacks between them appeared in the sky and understood when she saw that object beginning to increase in size.
Seeing her trident coming her way. "What are you doing..." Bonney was confused when she felt the mermaid move and didn't even have time to finish when Shirahoshi simply swayed her tail and flew upwards, catching her trident in the next moment.
"I will help," Shirahoshi looked at Bonney and spoke those words as she advanced in the middle of the war.
