Chapter 5 Traitor

Preview

When the smoke had cleared away, she saw Fluffy Hat and No eyebrows fighting with a Shicibukai. Ann squinted her eyes to have a better look on the large man and gasped as she recognized the man to be the one she knows dearly.

Bartholomeow Kuma!

Ann's POV

It's him. The man that I've been searching for. The key to open the Pandora Box.

I stood frozen as I saw him as attacking Law and Kidd. Not that I cared about them. Right now, the only thing I can think is about the man in front of me.

He's still the same as I remember. Big with small legs. How can he possibly walk with that legs? I'm surprised he hasn't collapsed yet.

However, I wonder if my name is still in his head. Besides I need his help. To find him.

Only one way to find out. Confront him.

I turned over and watch Jake and Ichi flinched under my narrowed eyes. Something happen. I'm sure of that. They never flinched before. No matter how scary I look because they know that I was never the one to stay serious for a long time. Well, if you live with idiots all the time, you'll probably act like me. Childish.

I might look like someone else right now. I was rarely ever serious but when I do it's mean something bad was about to happen.

I wanted so much to ask them what got them flustered but I can't right now.

My mind is on Kuma and him.

I need to reached Kuma but I need to be careful. The marines didn't know my connection with Kuma. Hell, even the world doesn't know.

He was my mentor. After I escaped that place, Kuma took me in and trained me under his wings. He taught me about Haki and how to survive in this cruel world. He became a father figure to me. Although he would never replace my father, still he's an important piece in my life.

It's been a long time after our last encounter. When he decided to be the marine's dog, I left him and went out on my own. I formed the Hibiscus Pirate and be a Supernova. So, seeing him right now brings a lot memories. If he still has one.

The last time I met him was a year after I become a pirate. I didn't know what they did to him but he doesn't remember me. At all. It's like all the time we spent together mean nothing to him.

"AANNNNN!" I was so busy remembering the past that I notice the beam directed to me. Luckily Jake and Ichi was there. They pushed me out of the beam readied their own weapons.

I was stunned at the time. I layed on the ground after they pushed me, not moving at all. I see Jake and Ichi hovered over my body and their mouth moving but I don't hear anything. Just the sound of buzzing on my head.

"...ou okay?" The buzzing stopped and Ichi's voice rang into my hear.

He attack me. I can't believe he attack me. How could he. Was what I thought.

I nodded a yes and pulled myself up on my legs, stumbling a bit as the dizziness didn't fully fade away. Ichi rosed one of his eyebrows, his eyes held concern in it. But he doesn't question me more. He knows that when I set my face hard, something bad will happen. He had experienced it with me before.

I watched as Law and Kidd attacked Kuma together. They might not see it, but they actually can work together if they wanted to. Their coordination fit each other.

I shook my head. Now is not the time to admire them. Jake looked at me, he was waiting for my signal to attack.

"Not now. Wait first."

I watched intently at Kuma's fighting skill. If I want to beat him, I need to know his weaknesses first. It's the first rule of fighting; take time to examine your opponent.

I was slightly confused. Kuma ate the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi fruit. He can repel everything it touch and physically represented as paws on his palm, making him the Paw Human.

But why didn't he used his power. He only shoot beams.... wait, beams?

Kuma can't shoot beams. His power is his Paw. Unless those marines changed him. F*cking bastards! Not only did they away his humanity but the also make him the rat lab!

"Jake, I want you to slash him with your sword and Ichi, once Jake has done that, use your devil fruit and splash him with sea water." I ordered to both of them with my eyes still on the fight. They nodded and ran to do the attack.

Just as I predicted. That was not Kuma, it's a f*cking robot! That Vegapunk bastard made another experiment.

Adrenaline pumped into my vein. I can't wait any longer. With Daichi still missing, my patience is growing thin. I felt cold even though it was a sunny day. I felt insecure and.... scared.

It's just like that day.

No! Ann, you stupid. Stop remembering!

I shook my head, willing the memories to go away. I clutched my sword hilt and ran over to the battle.

I jumped into mid air and slash his back with my one sword technique. I can't figure out his weakness. I need to touch him first so I can kill him...or deactivate it.

"Oi, girly! Back off. We don't need you here." A voice yelled. I looked around to searched for the voice and soon met a certain cocky redhead.

"Shut up, Kidd. I'll do what I want."

"Oh, feisty."

I rolled my eyes. Damn sexist brat.

Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I'm weak. People seriously need to open up their mind. Sometimes females are better then males. Or in my case, half female half male considering I'm a tomboy. I grinned at that.

"Do you have any idea on how to defeat him?" I asked the redhead.

He narrowed his eyes before saying, "Do you?"

I shrugged, "I may or may not have one. "

"Ann-ya, what is your idea then?" Another voice yelled out from in front me. Law looked really stressed from how his eyebrows were knitted together. He was trying to figure out Kuma's weakness. Smart...

"We need to work toget—" Kidd snorted.

I turned to glare at him, "I haven't finished yet! The only way to stop him is if we work together. The faster we do this, the faster we'll get the hell out of here. I'm not waiting until an admiral come." I explained, huffing as I finished.

Both Law and Kidd has this thinking face plastered. I was shocked when Kidd suddenly grin at me and Law shot me a sadistic smirk.

"Well, Ann-ya, it's a good idea." Law said, smirking at me. Damn cocky bastard.

I glared at him in return. Taking a few deep breath, my mind started to for ideas and plans to beat the robot shichibukai. I knew from the last time that we fought that Kuma cannot be understimated. I still remembered how I was dying from my recklessness. Without Daichi's power, I would have been a corpse, rotting away right now.

And I sure as hell not going through the same thing again.
