Grand dreams: Driftwhale Arc pt3



Chapter 3: Returning threat and setting off! Flint vs Ruff!
Ruff and his crew stood there laughing whilst Pooler was howling in pain. Ruff gestured to his crew and with that his crew scurried about the ship. Whilst this was happening some of the townspeople walked out to the edge of the town to see what the commotion was about.

Ruff: Poooon, poonpoonpoonpoon! Long time no see old man! Ruff the hunter has returned!

Gonzo: How dare you come to us again!

Ruff: Just as stubborn as last time I see. FIRE!

With that one word the pirates fired cannon balls at the town edge.

Gonzo: EVERYONE GET AWAY QUICKLY.

The townspeople did just that but some weren't quick enough, the cannon balls destroyed the edge of town, three houses fell into the water and some people slipped and would have fallen in if it weren;t for some stopping to haul them up. Pooler stopped as did the other whales stopping the pirate ship in the process. The remaining towns people fled deeper into town.

Ruff: Pooooon, poooooonpooooon! Now this whale is seperated! we will take everyone of them one at a time. BOYS! LOAD THE HARPOON GUNS!

With that order the pirates scurried about again loading more harpoon guns lining the ship. As this was happening Flint's face became sinister and serious and he stood up the brim of his tophat covering his eyes.

Flint: Hey Poon man...

Ruff: (Eyebrow raised) Eh? Whats this?

Flint: You won't hurt any of these whales or any of these people again. (Quietly) Soap Soap...

Flint's right arm started to melt into a pale blue liquid goop

Ruff: Hmph! How can you stop me? Pooooon, poonpoonpoonpoon. FIRE!

Before the crew could react Flint extended his arm so it was like a whip made of this blue liquid that could reach the ship and swiped it across all of the harpoon guns and the other awaiting harpoon ammunition and then his arm returned to normal.

Flint: STREAM!

The harpoons in the guns simply slid out and fell into the water and the unused harpoons were shiny and covered in the blue goo. and

Ruff: WHAAAAAAAAA!!! A DEVIL FRUIT USER!

Gonzo: I knew it! We get devil fruit users all the time but I knew you were special.

Flint faced Gonzo with his serious face and suddenly it was bright red and Flint looked a little embarrased.

Flint: Really you think I'm special? Thanks old man.

Gonzo: ARE YOU EVEN TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY!? YOU'RE SPECIAL ALRIGHT!

Flint oblivious to the now insult turned back to Ruff but as soon as he faced him a harpoon hit him directly in the center of his face and on impact Flint's head including his hat burst into a puddle of the same blue goo his arm turned into. Gonzo looked to to see Ruff's arm raised and replacing his lower arm was a smaller harpoon gun. Gonzo gasped as panic and fear spread across his face but everyone turned to shock when Flint's body stated to walk slowly closer to the ship. The puddle of blue goo slitherd to his feet and his head regrew plus reformed his hat to the last detail includong the rolled up paper.

Flint: That won't work on me, I ate the logia type Sekken Sekken no Mi making me a cleaner human, I'm made of soap almost everything will pass through me.

Ruff and his crew: WHAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Ruff: MEN FIRE MORE HARPOONS!

His crew tried and tried but kept fumbling about because they kept dropping them.

Crewman: (Panicked) We can't captain! they're too slippery!

Flint: (Now with a massive grin) now I have your attention! hehe...

Flint jumped into the air and his hand morphed into a blue solid soap anchor.

Flint: This soap anchor is harder than rock! Soap Soap!...

Ruff and his crew: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Flint: ANCHOR!

Flint extended his arm as if it could stretch hitting Ruff square in the chin sending him flying to the mast and finally Flint followed through with the attack and tipped the pirate ship backwards and made a gigantic hole in it and the ship quickly sank.

Gonzo: Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo! That was amazing young man! I'm sure everyone at the town will be happy we won't have to deal with them anymore!

Later that afternoon the towns people had started making repairs, some people were praising flint along with Gonzo. Pooler had been patched up though he was still in slight pain though the town was moving again.

Gonzo: Thank you again for helping us young man.

Flint didn't pay attention to what he was saying due to the fact he was admire a few things he had been given for saving the people, three notable things were a simple wooden fishing rod, a false moustache, nose and sunglasses combo and a huge sack of seafood. Gonzo's top half flopped as a sweatdrop fell down his bald head.

Flint: Thanks for the stuff Gonzold.

Gonzo: (Thoughts) Well at least he was close and din't call me old man hehe.

Flint: Oh yeah do you have anyway of getting to another island? I kinda need a ship of my own to start a crew... and a shipwright... and a cook...

Flint suddenly started drooling as his thoughts turned to food, though he was interruptedby Gonzo.

Gonzo: I'm afraid we don't young man but i'm sure Pooler can take you there before helping us again. How about it Pooler?

Pooler let out a loud whale noise that everyone assumed was agreement. And so with that Flint, with his new stuff, jumped onto Pooler and set off. Gonzo and the townsfolk waved him goodbye, Flint waved back. After the town was out of sight Flint turn around and walked to stand on Poolers head.

Flint: OK POOLER! TO THE NEXT ISLAND!
