CA: Ch 55 Crocodile

Splitting up, Hiko walked through the casino trying to act like a normal patron feeling someone's eyes on him Hiko looked up to see that Mikata was looking at him from above before disappearing into two large golden doors. Grinning Hiko made sure no one was looking at him before he jumped clearing the one hundred feet with ease, landing on both feet Leon created a few ants and he watched as they squeezed underneath the doors sneaking into the room.

Focusing his mind after a few seconds Hiko was almost overwhelmed as he could see through his ant's eyes. Inside there were twenty pirates, guarding two more golden doors but none of them noticed the bright ruby ants that scampered past them. In a few seconds, Leon was able to see a dimly lit room where Crocodile and his cronies sat around a long crystal table.

" Now that Miss Valentine is here we can start this meeting, recently a wrench has been thrown into our plans. A pirate by the name of Hiko has aimed for my position as Warlord. He has forced my hand in the next twenty-four hours we shall move ahead with my plan to reinstate Mr. 2 Bon Kurei as King Cobra. " Crocodile said as his gold hook tapped against the table.

" Um could you say the plan again, I kind of forgot. " Everyone looked at Miss Valentine with a look of confusion.

Narrowing his eyes at Miss Valentine Crocodile stared at her for what seemed like a minute before he sighed and explained, " As all of you should know several years ago I had my men plant Dance Powder inside the king's palace to start a civil war. Next, we kidnap King Cobra and then have Mr. Bon Kurei impersonate the king and declare that everyone in the village will be killed to keep it secret. Once the final battle begins we'll fire a bomb into the middle to get rid of both armies in one attack. "

" Oh, thanks for telling us. " Mikita said with an evil smile on her face, " What do you mean us. "

Pulling out his sword Hiko knocked down the two golden doors and they cracked the floor with the sound of thunder. Stepping over the debris Hiko smiled, " Tell Crocodile that I'm here for his head. " Sending out a condensed air slash Leon almost completely bisected the bounty hunters and the doors blocking his way.

Once the dust cleared Hiko saw that Crocodile and his agents were up at arms, " You must be Hiko, you have a lot of nerve breaking my property. " With a bloodthirsty smile on his face Hiko's body and sword started to glow red before turning pitch black, " Don't worry property damage won't concern you much longer. Mikita!! "

At his call, Miss Valentine ran over to his side much to the shock of everyone else in the room.

Mikita grabbed Hiko's arm pressing it between her large breast, " I did everything you asked, are you going to keep your part of the deal. "

Leaning down Hiko kissed Mikita grabbing her ass with one hand, " Damit you bastard don't forget you're in the middle of a fight. " Hiko growled as Mr. 3 interrupted him and Mikita, letting go of his new wife Hiko phased through the wax to the surprise of Mr. 3 before he used his Emperors Haki to knock out all of the named agents leaving Crocodile and Nico Robin alive.

" How are you using Haki, you can't be from the New World. " Crocodile stumbled back his hand and hook trembling, " Miss All Sunday it's going to take the both of us just to have a chance of taking him down. "

" I wouldn't do it, Robin Crocodile won't be a Warlord much longer. If you stay out of this I'll offer you my protection. " Robin and Crocodile froze when Hiko mentioned her name and the deal she had made with Crocodile, " H-how do you know my name. "

" I can tell you that later after I claim my spot as Warlord if you agree. " Robin was silent before she stepped aside leaving Crocodile all alone, " You bitch, I gave you sanctuary after twenty years on the run and you betray me just like that. I will drain you dry after I deal with him. "

Crocodile transformed into a whirlwind of sand as he rushed at Hiko, shaking his head Hiko didn't move as water droplets started to form in the air around him before they flew towards the dust cloud.

Slowing down Crocodile reformed his body parts of him falling to the ground as wet sand, " I always wondered what would happen if you got wet, now let's fight. "

Sending out another compressed air blade Crocodile tried to turn into sand but the water slowed him down and he was hit by the blade. Getting sent through the wall Crocodile was sent flying through the air sliding down the pyramid, using his foot Crocodile regained his footing as Hiko jumped out the hole he had made.

" That can't be all you got, show me the strength of a Warlord. "
