The Sea Train had come to a stop. They had arrived.

Corgi had sat by the door, the tension in the carriage was icy and thick. It had him sweating in his suit, as he began to write a report out of the events that had happened at Water 7. Nico Robin was not even looking his way, while every time he looked at Franky, the massive man just glared at him with intense hate.

I

t felt good to finally step out of that hellish environment. He was careful to avoid looking at the CP9 agents as they got out of the second carriage. He directed Nico Robin and Franky to fall in step behind them before he himself slunk off to report to his own superior.

"Wow. CP9 solved a 20-year case just like that."

"They're truly amazing. The World Government's best."

"

She sure is easy on the eyes, but that other guy's a brute. Why does he look so weird?"

Corgi only huffed at the comments from his fellow officers.

"Ah, Corgi! It's good to see you healthy. Hopefully everything went smoothly?"

That would be his boss: Opete Sowenew (pronounced O-Pe-Tay Sow-e-New). Opete was a tall, dark, bald man, easily towering over most other World Government agents, but like most of them, he wasn't exactly a combat expert. His only saving grace was his skill with a rifle. Next to Spandam, the commander of CP9, Opete was the second highest ranking official on the island, followed by Corgi.

"Yeah. Without a hitch. Nico Robin has been captured as well as another citizen, who CP9 suspects knows where the Pluton blueprints are. Such a shame that that spineless worm Spandam will get to take all the credit."

"Now, don't go bad mouthing Spandam, Corgi. He's still your superior. I'm just glad to know you're back relatively unhurt. You're bound to get a raise or promotion for sure!" Opete's hand clapped down onto Corgi's shoulder. "Make sure to have that report on my desk by tomorrow morning. I'll send it along to HQ once everyone that was left behind can catch up."

Corgi grunted, heading off to his office in the Tower of Justice, "Yea, I know the procedure. I started it early so I should have it on your desk in a few hours."

Opete laughed, "Ever the hard worker, Corgi! Do make sure to find some time to rest. Working all the time isn't good for your health."

Corgi only smiled slightly. If only Opete was the superior officer of Enies Lobby instead of Spandam, just about everyone marine and officer looked up to him. It took him about twenty minutes to get to his office and just as he sat down at his desk, his Den Den Mushi began to ring.

Swiping the receiver he answered it, "What is it?"

"Corgi, sir! There's a pirate attacking us right now! Straw Hat Luffy! He's already defeated 700 of our troops and he doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon! Another group is attacking the Front Gate and I don't think Oimo or Kaashii can last any longer!"

The soldier sounded frantic.

"What is Spandam doing?! Why are you calling me?!"

"Spandam isn't answering our calls! Opete is helping coordinate our forces down here, but you're the only other commanding officer available!"

Corgi rubbed his forehead, "Okay first off, close off all entrance routes. If it's just Straw Hat, that means he entered on his own. His crew won't be too far behind so limit as many entrances as you can."

More crashes and screams sounded through the receiver, "TOO LATE SIR! THEY CAME IN ON A FLYING SEA TRAIN! THEY'RE PAST THE FRO-GUH!"

The receiver cut off, the soldier probably hit with some attack.

Corgi gave a rather devious smile.

"You sure know how to make an entrance..." Corgi walked out of his office. "Captain."

Itachi, still disguised as Corgi, peered out a window to see Luffy on top of the Courthouse, which was opposite the Tower of Justice. A door opened out in the air in front of him, Blueno stepping through.

Itachi scoffed. Blueno would not be enough to take out his captain. He continued walking towards the communications room. While his crew was out and about, causing mass havoc, he would be their shadow. Enies Lobby wouldn't even know what hit them. He had already been walking around placing explosive tags in key areas. The generator room had been his first target. The next had been the plumbing. Using the information he had extracted from Corgi, he was now heading to the communications rooms, making sure their airwaves went dark would ensure plenty of confusion on the main island as well as Marine HQ.

He would need to hit the video surveillance room after, make sure that the Marines and World Government had no eyes inside their own island. He had a few more lesser stops between the surveillance room and his final stop, the gate control room for the Gates of Justice.

He knocked lightly on the communications door. It opened, a marine peering out who saluted at the sight of Itachi, "Corgi, sir! What brings you here?"

"Spandam is a little distracted at the moment, so I will be taking over troop coordination from here."

The marine stepped aside, "Yes sir! Just let me know if you need anything!"

As Itachi passed him, he said, "Then would you mind dying?"

"Huh?"

Itachi stabbed him in the heart, dragging him in the room and closing the door behind him. The other marines in the room looked up, but with a quick burst of killing intent and some fancy footwork, they too lay dead on the floor. Itachi moved their bodies to the back of the room.

He turned to the multiple rows of Den Den Mushi that were laid out on the multitude of tables in the room, each one easily labeled with their number and where they were connected to, but Itachi didn't care. He just went around lifting the receivers off every snail and crushed them. Turning to the back of the room, he easily slashed through the massive communication relay that was there. It would prevent any of the Den Den Mushi on the main island from contacting the Tower of Justice, and more importantly, prevent any commands from Spandam's baby Den Den Mushi from reaching the main island. It was such a simple way to deprive the Marines and the World Government of information and communication that it had almost made Itachi laugh out loud. It seems like infiltration by a shinobi of his caliber was just never thought of. With all the Den Den Mushi "out of commission", Itachi left the room, using a seal on the inside part of the door to seal it shut. It would of course wear off in a day, the snails undeserving of a fate such as starving to death.

He made his way to the video surveillance room, which was on the same floor. Repeating the same thing he had done in the communications room, but instead, just completely destroyed every piece of technology in the room: the screens, wires, cables, and the machinery connected to the Giant Surveillance Den Den Mushi.

It was just all too easy. Itachi was literally waltzing through the enemy base, slowly but surely hacking their legs out from beneath them. A massive yell reverberated from outside.

"ROOOOOOOOOOOOOBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN! I'VE COME FOR YOU!"

Itachi smiled, continuing to walk through the building, sabotaging it as he continued his steady march to the control room of the Gates of Justice.

"Make her see, Luffy. That we are here for her and we would challenge the world to get her back."
