Then Hachi said that the enemy will attack, so the crew look at the water. They see many shadows and suddenly many flying fish riders come out and fly. They attack the ship with some bombs but the crew repell them easily.
Luffy that see the fishes flying at high speed become interested and he take down a rider, then he ride the fish. Of course he can't control the fish, and the fish can't fly all the time. So the fish dive to the water again and Luffy is a devil fruit user, so he drown.
"Oi, someone go and help him!"-Jon
"Alright."-Chopper & Brook
"Eh? OI STOP IT, NOT YOU TWO!"-Jon
Brook and Chopper jump to help, but they're devil fruit user too so they are drowned. Nami & Franky help them getting out from water and lecture them. The other can only sigh at their stupidity.
When they're distracted, the Makuro gang have come near Caimie and Pappag. Hachi want to help but he is caged, but then the cage is cutted. Zoro have come and cut the cage, so Hachi can beat the gang, and they're so weak.
"Thank you Roronoa, you're actually a good guy."-Hachi
"Idiot, it's captain order"-Zoro
"Oi, they're coming again."-Jon
Jon see the riders want to come out from the water and warn the other. They look at the water again and fly. Jon just about to attack when Brook suddenly jump and attack the riders. But strangely, he take out a violin and play it with his sword. It actually produce sound and make some riders sleep.
"Oi, shouldn't the sword cut the string instead of becoming music?"-Jon
Jon said it to himself because no one hear it, and Brook fall to the sea and run to the village while attacking some riders too. Meanwhile, Luffy still want to ride the fish, so he jump and take one again. But the rider that he want to take over is sleeping because of Brook's music. Luffy can't control the fish and he crashed to a building.
"He never learn did he?"-Usopp
"If he ever learn, it will be a miracle."-Nami
The crew didn't worry about him and just keep defending the ship. Zoro and Brook also getting attacked but they are fine. But then Zoro feel his body hurt again. Even if he is not training like what Jon said, he is still not fully healed.
"That idiot, i told him not to exert himself too much."-Jon
Sometime later, Luffy come out from the building and seem to run away from someone with a shocked expression. Then someone also come out from the building while riding a big bull/bison/cow/something like that. He is very tall for a human and wear an iron mask.
"Luffy, who is he?"-Zoro
"You won't believe what i saw earlier. Don't be too surprised."-Luffy
Then Luffy run and kick the iron mask. The man immediately try to cover his face, but everyone have see it already. There's only one word for their respon, shock. Jon immediately go down and go to the deck to get a better look.
"Oy, i'm not seeing things right?"-Jon
"No, i also see it."-Usopp
The man finally open his hands and they all can see his face.
"DUVAL-SAMA"-Riders
"I can't believe that something like this exist. The world sure is a big place with many possibilities."-Jon
The man, Duval, have face that look exactly the same as Sanji's drawn picture in his wanted poster. The crew are shocked, and Franky cry immediately. They can't believe ther is someone with Sanji's bounty picture face.
"This is so..."-Chopper
"It's surprising me, to think there is something like this."-Nami
"Did Sanji born under a lucky star?"-Usopp
"He will meet an intersting end someday."-Robin
"Oi, your thought is too dark."-Jon retort to Robin
"That Duval guy, i understand his feeling."-Franky cry
Duvall then tell them that he has been chased by Marines because they think he is Sanji. So he run away here and become slave trader while waiting for Straw Hat crew to come. He wait for Sanji and want to get his revenge because Sanji has made him suffer.
Sanji immediately jump to the sea and swim. He arrive in front of Duval and want to confront him. But this scene look very funny to everyone.
"Nyuu, those two look excactly like each other."-Hachi
"Like two peas in a pod."-Zoro
"He must be Sanji's doppleganger"-Jon
"YOHOHOAHAHAHAHA*cough cough* HOHOHAHAHAHAHA"-Brook laugh until he kneel down
"BROOK, I WILL BEAT YOU LATER!"-Sanji
"Then Sanji, we will go first. See you later."-Luffy
"DID YOU WANT TO SAY THIS IS MY FAULT?"-Sanji
Sanji look at Duval again and said he can change his hairstyle or another things. Duval just realize now that he can do that. But he is still angry at Sanji so they fight. Duval shoot some steel arrow coated in poison. Sanji can avoid all of it but then he is caught by the riders while jumping.
The riders caught him with a steel net and pull him to the sea. The flying fish is a very fast swimmer, so not even Fishman like Hachi can chase them. But Pappag said that the fastest swimmer is mermaid, and Caimie immediately swim to chase them.
But Duval also angry at Sanji's crew, so he order something to his mens. Suddenly some riders come out from the sea and they pull a very big anchor above Sunny. They want to drop it to break the ship.
"SHIT, it seem i need to force my body."-Jon
"Don't worry, leave it to me, believe in Sunny!"-Franky
When the anchor is dropped, suddenly the lion's mane rotate very fast and the ship move backwards. Everyone is surprised seeing a ship that move backwards. It's one of Sunny's movement feature, Chicken Voyage. They are saved, but then the riders want to attack again.
"These guys are very troublesome, they can dive and fly at fast speed."-Jon
Franky ask Usopp to open the stairs behind the head figure. Usopp do it and he come inside. There's a room filled with some tools and monitor. Jon follow him because he is curious, but he just look from outside. This is some kind of weapon control room. He is right, because after some procedure, Sunny's lion mouth open.
Jon immediately go to the head figure and see a canon come out from Sunny's lion mouth, and he start to hear some sound. Then Usopp push the fire button and a strong air pressure fired from the mouth canon.
"GAON CANON"-Franky
The air canon destroy the village in front of it with a very strong air pressure. Jon almost being pushed back from the recoil but he hold on to the mane. He is reminded of Kuma's air bomb attack, but this canon shoot at straight line, not spreading everywhere.
'Hmm, maybe i can make wind ninjutsu based on this. But i need to learn more of those theories. Damn, there's so many technique that i want to create.'-Jon
They all are surprised seeing the damage from the canon. Luffy, Chopper and Usopp are very impressed by this. But the canon take a lot of energy. It takes 2 from 3 barrel of cola because it also using Coup de Burst at the same time, so the ship won't be pushed back by the canon.
Sometime later Caimie come out from the sea, and she has saved Sanji. But she is panicked because Sanji is bleeding from his nose. Caimie hold him in her chest so he got a nosebleed.
"It's okay if he die Caimie."-Usopp
"Just let him die."-Jon
"That's right, at least he has a happy death."-Nami
Meanwhile, Duval want to attack Luffy that stand near him with his mount, Motobaru. He said that Motobaru has saved him many times by defeating the marines that chased him using it's horn.
"It sounds like anticlimatic villain speech that will lose easily."-Jon
Jon is right, when Motobaru attack Luffy, he can hold the bull attack easily. The horn also useless because it's too high and it has very big head, so it can't hit Luffy with it's horns. Luffy hold it's nose and say something to the bull. The bull suddenly become afraid and move franctically before fainting.
"What happen?"-Nami
"I-i don't know, what are you doing Luffy?"-Usopp
"I-i didn't do anything."-Luffy
"He just talk to it and it became afraid."-Robin
"Oi, can that bull even understand his words?"-Franky
"Maybe it's instinct told him to not fight Luffy. Animals are said to have higher survival instinct than humans."-Jon
"So it got intimidated?"-Franky
"Maybe, i don't know for sure though. Just imagine someone strong threat Usopp! Maybe he will faint like that too."-Jon
"That's true."-All
"Oi"-Usopp
After sometime Sanji wake up and he confront Duval again. He got angry Duval also targetting the crew, no, Nami & Robin. So he attack Duval's face so many times. Jon can't believe what he see. He never thought something like this could be done to human's body or face.
Duval is defeated, and now the crew leave the village. Hachi, Caimie, and Pappagg also follow them with Hachi's takoyaki ship. He sell takoyaki using this ship, so it was made like a stall with some chairs. Everyone eat the takoyaki and it is very tasty.
"Ooh, this is good."-Sanji
'It's tastier than all takoyaki i ate on earth. Ugh, i remember eating a very bad taste takoyaki one day, it's so bad that i got diarhea the next day.'-Jon
They all enjoy the takoyaki, and Hachi can make it very fast. He can even supply Luffy's fast eating speed. Then Hachi ask Nami about the taste, and the crew become stiff, especially the ones from east blue. Even Jon is worried about this, because he know Nami's story from the other crew.
"It's tasty."-Nami
After silent for a while, Nami finally answer, and it seems she didn't hold a grudge to Hachi again. Jon is relief, it's not easy to forgive someone that ruined your life. So he is very proud of Nami, because if he is in her position, he don't know if he will ever forgive them.
Sometime later, they finished eating takoyaki and their stomach are bloated. Hachi and co also got very tired because they cook very fast and make so many takoyaki. Sanji ask them to get on Sunny and he will give them some tea. They tied their ship to Sunny and they move to Sabaody Archipelago.
"There are only two ways if you want to go to the New World. The first one is climbing the red line and passing by Holy Land Mary Geoise. But pirates like you can't use this way, because it need goverment approval. For pirates like you, there is only one way, that is from under the sea"-Pappag
"There is a small hole at the bottom of Red Line. It's actually very big, but it look small compared to the Red Line itself. That hole is near the Fishman Island, at 10,000 meters depth."-Caimie
"10,000 meters? Sky island is 10,000 meters above the sea, and now Fishman island is 10,000 meters under the sea."-Nami
"But our submarine can only reach 5000 meters. Just what kind of ship can reach 10,000 meters?"-Franky
"This ship can"-Caimie
"WHAT?"-Crew
Then Pappag explain that there is a special method to make their ship dive underwater. That is to coat it with special material, and it can only be done in Sabaody Archipelago. So they need to go there now, to coat their ship.
