Baratie part 16
Chef 1: Chore boy’s pretty good.
Chef 2: He might actually pull it off.
Pirate 4: He just broke the mighty battle spear?
Sanji: It’s amazing he’s still alive after that many explosions. There’s no way he can hold up.
Morbius: Fight’s not over yet.
Luffy: You ready for this? Because that was all I needed. Now that your little toy’s broken you’re nothing to me.
Krieg: Oh yeah?
Luffy: Yeah. Without the blade, it’s just a bomb on a stick. And let’s face it, that’s pretty lame.
Krieg: You think so?
Luffy: Sure do.
Krieg: Fine. So what if it is just a bomb on a stick? You’re in sad shape, kiddo. I think it will be more than enough to blow you to pieces. It almost sounds like a pathetic attempt at a bluff.
Luffy: Ok, but you’re wrong.
Krieg: Just give up. Your defeat is imminent! You see when you defy me, you sign your own death warrant!
Luffy: Nuh uh!
*Luffy sticks his tongue out at Krieg, angering him and he swings his broken spear at Luffy. But Luffy jumps onto the mast and avoids the explosion.*
Luffy: Up here!
Krieg: You little monkey!
*Krieg hits the mast, causing it to fall over.*
Krieg: Bounce out of that!
*Luffy throws a piece of the mast at Krieg.*
Krieg: Nice try!
*He uses a flamethrower in his armor to burn it to a crisp.*
Sanji: How many weapons does he have?!
Morbius: He’s armed to the fucking teeth!
Luffy: Gum gum Gatling!
*Luffy repeatedly punches Krieg and his armor.*
Pirate 3: What’s that kid doing?
Chef 2: Alright, chore boy!
Krieg: Hahahahaha! Weakling. What exactly did you expect to happen, boy? I’m wearing wootz steel body armor. This stuff is practically indestructible.
Luffy: We’ll see about that! Gum gum bullet!
*Luffy charges at Krieg while stretching his arm back and punches him in the gut. But it hardly does any damage to him.*
Krieg: You little brat!
*Krieh hits Luffy with the broken spear and knocks him back with an explosion.*
Krieg: It’s useless! You’ll never defeat me! This armor could take a million more of your monkey punches and it wouldn’t have so much as a dent!
Luffy: We’ll just see about that.
*Suddenly, Krieg is gone.*
Luffy: He’s gone!
Krieg: I’m right here!
*Krieg is now standing on top of the remaining mast.*
Krieg: You don’t stand a chance against me, boy! Real power comes from deadly weapons! There’s no source of true strength! Only the strong are meant to live. And that’s me!
*Luffy runs up to the mast.*
Luffy: Yeah, that’s what you think! Gum gum…
*Luffy stretches both his arms back while still running to Krieg.*
Krieg: It’s useless! Foolish pride will only get you so far!
*Krieg throws more bombs at Luffy.*
Morbius: That asshole’s throwing more bombs!
Sanji: Don’t run up there! It’s a trap!
Krieg: Tricked you!
*The bombs explode, but Luffy keeps running towards Krieg.*
Krieg: Huh?!
Luffy: Bazooka!
*He then double palm strikes Krieg and sends him flying, but he throws more bombs.*
Krieg: Hahahahaha! After it?! After all that big talk that’s all you got?!
*But his armor starts to crack.*
Krieg: What?! I don’t believe it! My armor’s cracking!
*Luffy starts to become exhausted.*
Krieg: Doesn’t matter. You’re done for, chore boy!
*The bombs land in the water and explode.*
Sanji: Chore boy!
Morbius: Luffy!
Krieg: Hehehe…
*But Luffy emerges through the smoke and jumps into the air.*
Luffy: Gum gum…
Krieg: What the?!
Luffy: Bazooka!
*Luffy double palm strikes Krieg again and manages to completely shatter his armor.*
Luffy: I totally won!
*As he falls down, Krieg doesn’t give up.*
Krieg: This isn’t over yet, boy!
Luffy: Woah, he’s alive!
*Krieg fires a net at Luffy and traps him inside.*
Krieg: Hahahahaha! You can’t escape! It’s a steel net!
*Luffy tries to break out of the net.*
Krieg: It’s over! That’s the ocean down there below us! It looks like I’ll be getting the last laugh after all, chore boy!
*Luffy manages to get his arms and legs through the net.*
Luffy: Now I got that jerk right where I want him! Time for me to end this!
Sanji: He hasn’t even flinched… how can he stay so calm?
*Luffy stretches out his legs while twisting them and grabs hold of Krieg.*
Luffy: Time for me to end this, right now! Gum gum giant hammer!
*Luffy then untwists his legs and sends Krieg into the broken fin deck and falls into the water.*
Pirate 4: He defeated Don Krieg!
Pirate 3: How could this have happened?!
Chef 2: Way to go, chore boy!
Patty: He won! He really won!
Morbius: I knew you could do it!
Carne: I gotta be dreaming! That’s Don Krieg right there!
Patty: Who would have thought that kid had it in him?
*Gin wakes up.*
Gin: What is it? What’s going on?
Patty: Rise and shine!
Carne: Krieg was beaten!
Gin: What?!
Zeff: Are you done daydreaming yet? Go on, save that kid. He can’t swim.
Sanji: What?!
Zeff: Those with the powers of a devil fruit are hated by the sea. So they lose their ability to swim.
Morbius: Crap, I forget he can’t swim!
Sanji: Are you saying he’ll just sink?! You guys could have told me that sooner! What if it’s too late?!
*Sanji dives into the water and swims down. He manages to find Luffy and frees him from the net. He then swims to the surface with Luffy.*
Sanji: Hey, chore boy! Don’t die on me!
*Krieg’s men surround him.*
Gin: Don Krieg has been defeated. This can’t be happening. He’s the mighty ruler of the eastern sea. It’s impossible. He’s just too strong.
Patty: Well, he’s down for the count. Have a look for yourself.
Carne: That fancy armor of his got all busted up. He got knocked out as soon as he hit the deck.
Morbius: No way any of those weapons could have defeated Luffy.
Gin: He was the only man I ever truly admired. How foolish he lost.
*Gin gets up.*
Patty: Hey, hold up! If you move around the poison will set it!
Morbius: And we just barely saved you! Listen to me! I’m a doctor!
*He sees Sanji trying to resuscitate Luffy.*
Morbius: Oh shit!
Sanji: Chore boy, can you hear me?! Don’t die! Get up! Right now! Just open your eyes!
Morbius: Is he dead?
Luffy: Zzzzzzz…
Sanji: He’s just sleeping.
Morbius: Phew.
Sanji: You really are something else.
Krieg: I am the strongest!
*Krieg regains consciousness and gets back up.*
Krieg: I am the best! I am the greatest! No one beats me!
Pirate 5: Just stay down!
*His men try to restrain him.*
Morbius: Oh great, he’s only semi-conscious!
Krieg: I have to win! I have to!
*He starts beating up his men.*
Krieg: I’ll fight till victory is mine!
*But Gin punched him in the gut, knocking him out for good.*
Gin: Don Krieg, we’ve lost. Let’s leave while we still can. Thanks for everything, Sanji.
Sanji: Sure. Now leave and don’t ever come back.
Gin: You don’t owe me any favors Sanji. But when the kid wakes up. Tell him I’ll see him on the open sea.
Sanji: But…
Gin: That’s where I want to go with the time I have left. It’s the only thing I care about. The thing that keeps me going. It seems that Krieg’s obsession with the open ocean has become mine as well. It’s silly. I know that. It’s my dream. With this poison in my veins, I may have a few hours to live. But I feel free somehow. Like I can live those last few moments on my own terms. To hell with loyalty to Don Krieg. My devotion to him was an escape from forging my own destiny. Once your heart is set and you pursue all your dreams with every last fiber of what you are, you will never again feel loss or afraid. I learned all that from a brave chore boy.
Sanji:… Patty! Carne! Give him the boat we use to go grocery shopping!
Patty: Are you stupid or something?!
Carne: Why do we need to give a perfectly good boat a bunch of pirates?!
Patty: And what’s gonna happen to all of our grocery shopping, jackass?!
Carne: He’s right! Let them swim to wherever they’re going!
Sanji: Go get that boat now!
Carne: Alright, fine…
Patty: Stop shouting…
*All of the Krieg pirates get onto the boat, but it’s too small.*
Morbius: That’s probably gonna sink sooner or later.
Sanji: It probably will.
Gin: Why did I hesitate? What was I so worried about? When I think about it, I can’t help but feel stupid.
Luffy: Zzzzzzzz…
Gin: Well then, we gratefully accept this boat. And I assume we have no right to return it?
Sanji: It’s yours. Don’t ever come back here. Don’t ever come back here for anything. Not even to return this boat.
Patty: He's right! And don’t you ever forget! This is the restaurant where the cooks fight, the Baratie!
Gin: The cooks here sure do mean business.
*Gin and the others sail away.*
