21. Bluejam
21. Bluejam
And one fine day as the 4 brothers were returning from their mini heist after hitting a small auction store that was owned by a noble they were stopped by the Bluejam Pirates and its crew.
No.. No... No.. The correct answer here should be 'ambushed' but according to the 4 brothers this ambush was a little funny. As they were passing by the Gray Terminal, the crew members emerged from all sides with weapons in their hands. Most particularly everyone had guns in their hands. The people of the pirate world normally use swords or other cold weapons but this time everyone had guns in their hands.
Ken was particularly surprised by this. He remembered that only Bluejam had a gun, but this time it seemed like the story had changed. Luffy, Ace and Sabo seeing this situation instantly went into action. They had already thrown kunai and shuriken at the people who had been holding guns.
This time, they were fast and efficient!! Unlike the time against the bear.
The kunais and shurikens thrown either hit the crew members at their hands that were used to hold the guns or the guns themselves. The 3 kids were so fast that the other crew members panicked and shot at Ken who was just standing and looking at them in a mocking expression.
Bluejam too got scared a bit seeing this and shot at Ken and aimed it right at his head!!!
Sabo and others didn't even care about it and continued taking down all the members. The shurikens and kunai hurt them but not mortally so they had to use hand-to-hand combat to take them down. The chakra content in their bodies were at their peaks so they didn't care about the expense and in addition they had strong bodies.
Bluejam then noticed that after he used the gun on Ken, the bullet had stopped after hitting the forehead. If at first he was scared by the other 3 kids, then this time he was horrified. The bullet couldn't even penetrate the skin of this kid. The other crew members who had shot had also the same expressions
"No... No,.. This is not happening." Bluejam panicked more and started shooting the remaining bullets at Ken. Just like the other time, the bullets couldn't penetrate his skin at all. Ken had already started walking towards Bluejam who had a dignified face and had started stumbling backwards.
He had heard about the horror of this kid and at that time he thought it was exaggerated but this kid was more horrifying than he thought. The black clouds had already started gathering over the sky of Gray Terminal just like before.
"So you are the Bluejam that has been terrorizing this place. Tell me Bluejam. Don't you brush your teeth? Why are so many of your teeth missing?" Ken gave a devil's smile. Bluejam couldn't take it any more as he had already started to run in the opposite direction but before he could take a few steps he was hit by a hammer at his leg which broke his lower leg bone instantly and he fell right on that spot. He cried out in pain.
The 3 brothers were already done with their opponents. Each and everyone of the crew members were either hit by a wave of cuts on their bodies. The cuts were made by wind ninjutsus. Others were hit physically at many places of their bodies and Sabo was a little more ruthless as he had shuriken enhanced by the vacuum style.
"So this is Bluejam? Doesn't look like much... Shesheshe..."
"We were once afraid of this guy.. Tchh..."
Ken didn't even look at Bluejam who was screaming like a baby but looked in a certain direction before shouting.
"You should come out. You have seen how I treated Bluejam. Do you want the same treatment?"
"Huh!!"
"Who?" The three brothers were surprised that someone else was hiding nearby. And after a moment of silence. A tall man came out wearing elegant blue clothes. He had a hat on his head which looked like a bigger version of Sabo's hat.
But somehow even with all the clothes, he looked disgusting in Ken's eyes. And behind this man were men wearing gas masked gears. They all had rifles and they were pointed at Sabo and others.
"You are quite a kid. Able to defeat Bluejam so easily. Why don't you come and work for our family? I will pay you to be my personal bodyguard. And for sending Sabo on my way I will also pay you extra." This person was Sabo's father as he came to take away Sabo but what he just saw was not what he expected. He saw a bunch of kids bringing down one of the most feared pirate groups and it seemed like it was nothing.
The crew members couldn't even keep up with the movement of the three kids and the one they could shoot turned out to be an invincible person in front of guns. And he even found out that he was hiding!! What the hell was wrong with this kid.
"Father!!" Sabo clenched his fist seeing his father here. He could already understand what had happened. His father had hired pirates to bring him. And from the gun power he had seen, if they weren't powerful, Ace and Luffy might have died.
His anger against his own father had almost reached his peak!! Luffy and Ace also came to the realization that this person was the father of Sabo who had once told them that his father was a noble. Though they never cared.
"Oh!! Good proposal. I have a better one here. How about I take away all the kids that you adopt from now and in the future too. You pay me so that I won't do it and thus the safety of Stelly will be intact." Ken smiled as he said that. The father of Sabo had his eyes wide open when he heard of Stelly. Stelly had been recently adopted and this was kind of a secret that nobody knew but this kid actually knew about his adopted child Stelly.
"KID!!!..... Shoot him... Shoot him down....Kill him..." Sabo's father ordered.
The guns were already pointed at Ken but before they could pull the trigger, Ken took his hammer high up and just brought it down like he was beating someone in thin air.
