136. Pigs are treated better
"The Vice-Captain was having a one on one fight against you. Why are you bringing your 'friends' in this mess?" Sanji said as he puffed out a smoke. His feet were still in fire and was ready to deliver another 'Diable Jambe' shot at Jabra.
Jabra who was rolled a few rounds before slowly got up. His face and body was filled with sand particles attached, but the highlight was the face. A side of his face had been blackened and now sand had totally covered his burnt side. Jabra cried out in pain as he tried touching his face but touching the burnt part made him scream more.
Jabra didn't bother about the pain but now looked at Straw Hats crew with a more menacing expression. He was infuriated now. An attack on his 'handsome' face made him lose his shit totally.
Seeing no other way, he finally decided to use his trump card. His Devil fruit. He slowly turned into the hybrid model of wolf. In this form he was the best in combat. Everyone was surprised by the sudden change. This was the first time they had seen someone using their Zoan fruit. Though Luffy and Chopper could be called out as eating a Zoan fruit they actually haven't seen anyone with hybrid model from a human.
"You have done it and now you will face the consequences." Jabra shouted and disappeared from his place. Since he couldn't get to the men, he would get to the women. He had already identified Robin and even if he was surrounded by the Straw Hats, at least he was fast enough to kidnap Robin. The problem of King could be handled by the other CP9 member who had already gone ahead.
When he appeared near Robin and took his wolf claws to swipe at her, he was welcomed with a huge gust of wind. The gust of wind wasn't strong enough to blow him away but he had to stop in his tracks.
It was Nami. She was holding a staff at her hand that had a medium sized fan on the edge. Ken didn't bother to give her the Avatar staff and instead she went through the other route. She used her wand to change it to the staff of Avatar. It was done on the same principle when Bellatrix had changed her wand into a whip when she was coercing Hermione in the dungeons.
Now she just used her air bending and also her a blow of magic into the air bending to stop Jabra. She wasn't strong enough like Luffy or others to punch strongly at the CP9 members as of yet but definitely had enough power to hold her own feet.
Jabra was flabbergasted when he was stopped. A puny little girl like her actually stopped her. He got more enraged and used her claws at Nami to tear her body apart only to hear a voice from behind.
"Shakkotsu En'yō" (Burning Bones, Summer Sun)
It was Zoro with his Sun breathing.
He delivered a frontal slash towards Jabra after spiraling his body in the air. And this attack went straight for his neck. Jabra got scared hearing the sound and somehow his wolf instinct was screaming at him to dodge.
"Soru"
Jabra disappeared from his place but couldn't do properly and blood got splattered at the place where he stood before. He was injured.
The attack which was going to land on his neck spine ended up on his right shoulders on his back. A wide gash was easily seen that went through his cloth. A patch of redness could be seen from his behind. This time Jabra didn't cry in pain but looked at Ken, Zoro and Sanji with fear. Apart from the first time when Ken just avoided his attacks, these 'nobodies' were able to wipe the floor with him with only just one of their tricks.
The bounties on these people were way off. These men should have the bounties on at least 200 millions. But of course, Ken didn't give enough time to think and appeared near him using Body Flicker jutsu.
Before he could say anything, Ken punched Jabra on guts and that too using Armamaent Haki. Jabra immediately spat out blood. He clenched his stomach and groaned.
"We could have talked like civil men but no. You had to use your muscles to settle everything. Didn't you learn anything from your boss? That guy can't even pack a punch and still could order you around like a slave dog. What a disappointment you are." Ken said while he held the face of Jabra with tight grip.
He also used Armament Haki in hands and thus Jabra could't get away from his grip. Jabra seeing not other option used his sharp claws to attack the hand of Ken, only to hear a metallic sound. Like his fingers, his hands were covered with Armament Haki.
"You.. You couf use Haafi..." (You can use Haki) Jabra spoke through the gaps of his fingers. Jabra was confused about how this small pirate group were able to accurately predict his move and stop him, and now he got the answer. These people weren't normal.
They had the knowledge about Haki but knowing one thing and practicing it was a total different matter. None of the CP9 had learnt Haki as of yet. And now getting hit by Armament Haki while even on the start of Grand Line blew away both his mind and his body.
Ken didn't reply and just lifted him and struck him at the ground at incredible speed. He was doing this while using Armament Haki in his fingers and his face bones were cracking a bit under such intense pressure. Ken, didn't stop with one hit. He tossed him on the ground multiple times.
The army which was a little far way saw the horror that Ken was unleashing. A Zoan user which had such speed speed and strength was treated like a pig into slaughter. No even a pig wasn't treated as bad as Jabra was right now.
