Chapter 16: Jack The Bamboo

One Piece: Wanted DeadWords: 14110

Davy J. slid to a halt after entering the courtyard of the Marine base.

Petra: So you returned...

Davy: I told you, I would!

Davy: Now prepare for an ass-kicking!

Petra: Tell me the location of the locker and your death-

Davy: HEY!

Davy: Shut up and fight!

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Surfer"!!

Spinning his legs, Davy drives towards Petra. However, Bob and BB leap in his way, ready to knock him back.

Davy:!

(Wooosh)

Tiga hugged Bob from behind, suplexing him out of Davy's way. Azriel blocked BB's kick with her electrified katana which stunned the long boot Marine.

Davy: Hehe... Thanks!

Speeding past them, Davy leaps towards the Vice-Admiral.

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Boxer"!

(BAM)

A wall of bamboo blocks Davy's punch.

Davy: RaaaaAHH!!

(CRASH)

But with a little bit of effort, Davy J. broke through, yet Petra wasn't on the other side to taste his fury. The Vice-Admiral was already in the air, using her bamboo stilts to leap that high.

Petra: Don't think for a second you'll get the same mercy as Victor!

Davy: Mercy?!

Davy: I'll show you what your "mercy" felt like! In fact, I'll show you it all over this courtyard!!

(Opening Theme)

Tiga was kicked back by Bob. By digging into her heels, Tiga stopped her momentum.

Tiga: Punching you is like punching a wet cloud.

Tiga: And you absorb water into your body to increase the hardness of your body...

Tiga: Your punches have the power of bellyflopping into water from a high place!

Bob: In a way...

Tiga: Then this should hurt!

(Krackak....)

Electricity covered her claws, as she charged up for a different style of attack.

Tiga: "Thunder Tiger"!!

With electrically charged claws, Tiga slashed at Bob, whose flesh got ripped and shocked.

Bob: Tch!

Tiga: Hehe!

With a barrage of claw swipes, Tiga had Bob backing away on the defensive.

Azriel was changing her tactics, becoming heavily offensive, as she swung her sword and stabbed with her wings, trying to hit BB, who used her burning right leg to block with great speed.

BB:(chews gum)

BB:(blows bubble)

Azriel; Tch!

Creating seven pairs of wings, Azriel blows a heavy gust of wind that pops BB's bubble, covering her face in gum.

BB: What the hell!?!

With this opening, Azriel zoomed up to her and punched her with her robotic fist.

BB:(GRUNTS)

Azriel sends BB flying back.

Petra lands with a powerful slam of her bamboo sword. Davy rolled to the side to avoid it.

Davy: "Ro-Ro;-"

He raised his fist, preparing to strike at Petra, but Davy was forced to leap back, as several sharp tipped Bamboo spikes grew below him.

Davy: Hmph!

He backflipped believing he'd be safe, but was proven wrong when he saw the river of bamboo spears behind him. Petra had to anticipate him to evade her first attack.

Petra: Suffer, Pirate scum!!

Extending the length and width of her bamboo sword, she swung it down to slam Davy into her spikes, but the rebellious Captain had a few tricks up his sleeves.

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Diver"!!

He allowed her to push him into the spikes. That along with a Haki coating helped Davy dig through the spikes and dive underground.

Petra: What!? Urgh!

Petra: "Bamboo tower"!!

Her legs transformed into a thick bamboo culm that raised her several feet above the courtyard.

Petra: Now... Where will you pop-whoa!?

She was uprooted by Davy who pushed out off the ground, hugging her bamboo legs.

Davy: Hurrrrrghhh....!!

Davy J. attempted to swing her like a giant sword into her own base.

Davy: Hiya-

Mid-swing, Petra retracted her legs, pulling Davy up into the air with her. She turned his swing into a flip, which threw him off her legs.

Davy: Uh-oh...

Putting her weapon into her mouth, Petra held up both her legs and arms.

Petra:(muffled) "Bamboo Cannon"!!

Her arms, legs, and fingers extended out in the form of bamboo, pushing Davy straight through the Marine base.

(Crash)

Davy: Ugghhhh....

Feeling her hands still holding onto him, and seeing her feet dug into the floor, Davy was flung through the building, now in a rotating curve motion, before getting tossed high into the sky.

Davy: WHAAAAT THE HEEEEEELLLLLLLLLL!?!!

Tiga: Huh?

Getting distracted, Tiga looks at Davy as he gets flung into the air.

Tiga: Ohhhhh...

Tiga: He's going to hit the sun at that height!

(BAM)

Bob took the opportunity to punch Tiga.

Tiga: Ow!

Tiga: No fair- huh?

Bob took a strange stance and began flexing his muscles in a pulsing pattern.

Tiga:(flexes) I got muscle too!

Bob: Stupid Mink...

His body began steaming.

Bob: Your Electro may be a weakness to me... However, don't think for a second that I don't know your weakness...

Tiga: Weakness...?

Tiga:(crosses arms) I have no weakness!!

Bob: "Humidity Punch"!!

Tiga:(defensive pose)

By flexing, Bob moved the water around his body back and forth, creating kinetic energy to heat it up to the point it turned to steam which he launched a wave of towards Tiga.

Tiga: Hm? That... Didn't do anything?

Tiga: Did you...(pant)... Miss...? Because I f-feel...(pant)...(pant)... Well, I feel hot... Really hot...

Tiga:(heavily pants)... And a little moist...

Her electrical current weakens, as she pants wildly.

Bob: A Mink's weakness is heat. Like most animals, you cannot sweat to regulate your heat thanks to your furry bodies.

With her tounge out, Tiga pants heavily.

Tiga:(panting)... Then I'll just walk out of this heat wave.

Bob: "Humidity Aura"!!

His body was surrounded by a cloud of steam. Bob then raced towards Tiga and rammed her into the fence of the Marine base.

Tiga: Hugh!?

Peeling off the gum off her face, BB glared with great anger at Azriel who flew toward her ready to strike.

BB:.... Tch.

Lifting her left leg, BB swung it.

Azriel:?!

A blade of wind slashed off all of Azriel's wings. The ex-Marine slid face-first into the ground, in front of BB who slammed her foot on her head.

Azriel: Ugh!

BB: I don't think we'll be needing you... So...

She lifted up her leg to bring it down and crack Azriel's head. However, she quickly grows several wings to catch the foot and hold it in place.

BB: The let's see which gives out first, you or me...

In the air, Davy was finally falling down towards the ground.

Davy: Guess it's time for "Level-

A bamboo staff slams into his stomach, stopping his momentum, before retracting.

Grabbing onto it, Petra watched him come closer to the ground.

Once low enough, Davy leaped towards Petra, ready to attack.

Petra: "Bamboo Trap"!!

Several bamboo rods bursted from the ground which entangling Davy, by crossing his body and each other.

Davy: What the...?

Stuck in the air, Davy attempted to grind his way out of the Bamboo until he realized, it was all coated in Haki.

Lightly smacking her palm with her weapon, Petra prepared to beat some answers out of Davy.

Petra: The locker... Where is it?

Davy: Have you tried looking under your sagging tits? I bet you miss a lot of stuff that's under-

(WACK)

Davy:.... Ow...

Petra: You stole something so high up the food chain, that it is a secret that the New World Government will stop at nothing to get it back.

Petra: I would like to stop them from taking things too far. So-

Davy: You can't move can you?

Petra:?

Davy: When you hit me, you extended your arm. You didn't just walk over.

Davy: Your feet need to be touching the ground for you to make these-

(SMACK)

Petra: Strike two, scum.

Davy: Hit me all you like... I'll pay you back tenfold-

(Whistling)

Everyone:?

Limping to the entrance of the Marine base was Victor.

Victor:(whistling)...

Victor: Captain.... Having a little trouble with her....?

Davy: What are you doing here?! I got this!

Victor:(aims gun)

Victor: I need to at least see it... See how you beat her!

He collapses to the ground, his injuries and exhaustion having finally brought him down.

Petra: Tch... I don't I can forgive you for corruption that boy!

She thrusts her weapon at Davy's face, but the Pirate captain catches it with his mouth.

Petra:!?

(SHATTER)

Bitting her weapon, Davy spits it out.

Davy:(mumbles) Taste like lonely disappointment...

Petra: You-

Davy: SHUT UP! I'M TALKING WITH MY CREWMATE!!

Davy:(turns to Victor) You still awake, man?

Victor: Hm-hm...

Davy: Keep your eyes wide open. Whistle a song to keep yourself awake. Because you're not going to wanna miss...

(VrrrrrBRRRRRRRR)

His limbs grinded against the bamboo so hard, that sparks began to fly.

Davy: The next stage... Of this battle!!

(SHATTER)

Breaking free, Davy landed on the ground, in his 20,000 RPM style.

Davy: "Level 2; JAAAACK... GRINDER"!!!

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Jack Axe"!!!

Lifting his 20,000 RPM Haki-coated leg, Davy brought it down towards Petra who raised several pillars of bamboo to catch it, however the pirate's leg ground straight through it.

Petra:!!

Davy: Hyiah!!

Throwing a punch to her chest, Davy ripped a bit of her clothing and ground off a bit of flesh, before knocking back Petra.

Petra: Hugh!!

Bob/BB:!?

Whilst distracted, Bob failed to see Tiga get up and thus, push him back.

Bob: Hm?

Tiga:(panting) You think a little heat will stop me!?

(Riiiiiiiip)

She rips off all her clothing.

Bob:(looks away)

Tiga: Look at me!

Bob: I'd rather not until you put on some-

He feels Tiga's claws dig into his body as she lifts him over his head.

Tiga: I said look!

Tiga: My name is TIGA!! I am the inventor of Electro Kung Fu!! And I prove to the world, that it is the greatest martial art in the world!

Tiga: By beating every foe in my waaaaay!

Tiga: "Electro Made-Up art"...

Tiga: "Thunder Tiger; Scratching Post"!!!

Mustering as much electricity as she could to shock Bob, Tiga begins twisting his body, wringing out the boiling water from his body, which immediately showered upon her.

Tiga: Nyaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!

Bob: GHAAAAAAA!!

Once the water was all gone, Bob was left thin, and half his size. Tiga smashed him over her knee and tossed him to the dirt in victory before collapsing to the ground.

Tiga: Whoooooo...(pants)...

Tiga: Can we get ice cream......?

BB: Bob!

Azriel: Hmph!

Finding a chance to strike, Azriel knocks BB off balance. Then switches her sword's element to ice, and lifts it over her head, ready to swing it.

BB: Tch! Too slow!!

She speeds around Azriel, prepared to finish her off to aid Bob and Petra.

Azriel: Too predictable!!

Flapping her wings with great force, as she drops her sword, Azriel blows her frosty blade straight into BB's boot, causing it to get covered in ice.

BB removed the boot, to avoid the ice from spreading across her whole body.

Azriel: Get over here!!

Flying over to BB, Azriel knocks her out with her left robot hand.

(BAM)

(THUMP)

Azriel:(heavy sigh)...

She turns to Davy's battle with Petra.

Surfing on his legs, Davy moved to be somewhat too fast for Petra to keep up. To try to slow down Davy, she grew bamboo spikes under him, however, his legs immediately ground through them.

Petra: "Bamboo Construction"!!

She lifted a large chunk of land into the air with bamboo. Davy managed to get on it but lost the space to zoom around her.

Running up to her, Davy began spinning his upper body back and forth, to boost the swing of his punches.

(WHAM, WHAM, WHAM)

The Vice-Admiral used Haki to block the attacks and strike back, with Bamboo punches.

Petra: You're going to ruin his life!

Davy: Tch! Stop acting like a mother who thinks they know what's what!

Davy: You don't know JACK SHIT!!

Catching her arm between his, Davy ground the flesh off her arm after overcoming the Haki.

Petra:!!!!

Flipping her onto her back, Davy was then pushed high into the air by a spear of bamboo, but by spinning his abdominal section, he eventually began to grind away the bamboo faster than it could grow.

Davy: I can see it in your eyes! Hear it in your voice! You want him to be something!

Davy: But it's not your right to choose that! It's his and his alone!

Davy: And if you stand in the way of someone's choice! Best bet that I'll be there, to knock you out of the way!!

He falls towards Petra.

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Jack Hammer"!!!

His torso spins 90° left and right as he falls back down towards Petra with his fist spinning and punching.

Petra: "Bamboo Rain"!!

She rapidly kicks and punches extending her limbs at Davy, but his power overwhelmed her. Falling atop her, Davy riddles her body with punches, until they both fall through the land she lifted.

Yet even as they fell Davy J continued to beat Petra up as she did to Victor.

Davy: RaaaaaaHHHHHH!!

(CRASH)

Using her to break his fall, Davy stood victorious over Petra. He walked away from her whilst reverting out of Level 2.

Davy: Satisfied, Vic?

(BAAAAM)

Everyone:?!

The land Petra uprooted into the air fell atop her.

Victor:..... Yeah. I'm satisfied.

Davy picked Victor up as Azriel tried to put Tiga's clothes on.

Tiga: No!

Azriel: Put them back on!

Tiga: But I'm hooooot!!

Azriel: You can't walk around naked!

Tiga: Then carry me....!

Azriel: I'm not touching your naked body.

Tiga: Captain! Can you carry me? Please....!

Davy: If she wants to be naked let her be naked.

Azriel:(holds wing over Tiga) Uh-huh... Are you saying that because of your philosophy or because of the naked lady?

Davy: Hmmm...

Victor: Both?

Davy: Yeah. Let's go with that.

Tiga: So are you going to carry me....? I'm too hot...!

Azriel: Oh my-

Azriel: You're such a baby.

(WOOOOOOSH)

Blasting Tiga's moist fur with a gust of wind, she cools and dries her off whilst causing her fur and hair to poof up like Shin's afro.

Azriel: There! Better?!

Tiga: A little.

Azriel: Now please put on some clothes.

Tiga: Fine...

As she changed, Azriel held her wings over so the boys couldn't see.

Victor: We're just interested in how much of her body is covered in fur.

Azriel: Didn't you see it all already....?

Davy: I didn't. And I'm kinda curious...

Tiga: Most of my body. Except for my chest and belly.

Victor: So you did have a bald spot...

Tiga: It's not a bald spot!!

Azriel:(rubs face in disappointment with life choices)

Having set sail to escape any more trouble, the crew treated their injuries as best they could.

Yet despite receiving the most, Victor got out of bed to see Davy J.

Davy: Hm? Shouldn't you be resting?

Victor:...

Victor: Thanks... Captain...

Victor: Next time. I'll be more useful.

He walks away, whistling a lullaby.

Davy:.... Heh. Okay then.

To be continued......
