Shounen Hero Book 4!!!!

Sands of Time!

You guys rested up at the inn, and well everyone was still confused.

Juvia: I decided to return to the Sunny earlier just to wait for you Love!

(Y/N): How loyal of you Juvia. But I was going to be at the inn.

Juvia: Oh? Crap, I did it for nothing.

(Y/N): Don't be so hard on yourself? What then?

Zoro: That Damn cook showed up and offered to cook us food.

(Y/N): Sanji?

Erza: The problem was he attacked us.

(Y/N): WOAH! Even- THAT WASN'T SANJI! Sanji would never hit a woman!

Cana: Yeah, that was the weird thing. He doesn't fight girls. I mean, he got his ass handed to him by Kalifa if I remember correctly.

It was true. It was up to Nami and Lucy to beat Kalifa back during the attack on Enies Lobby.

Gajeel: Next thing we knew, well we're on Punk Hazard. Damn that place is still freezing cold.

Laxus: And then you guys showed up.

(Y/N): But how did that happen?

Pato: Hey, I don't want to interrupt but that could probably be what my Boss can do.

Lily: Your Boss can create areas and enemies of the past? That could explain how Caesar got here.

Natsu: Hey there was also that big dragon too.

Erza: You mean the same one that Luffy wanted to eat and you beat him up after we took it down?

Natsu: Yeah.

Luffy: BUT DRAGON MEAT IS GOOD!!

Natsu: No! WE DON'T EAT DRAGONS!

Though he then picks up a Sandy scent.

Natsu: Hey, you smell that? It's sand!

Bickslow: Woah! There isn't even any sand on this island.

Jack: I got a feeling that-

Soon...

Further investigation leads to the desert sands of-

Jack: I knew it had to be Alabasta.

Evergreen: And of course it's hot.

Happy: Sheesh, everyone get to Juvia for water!

Juvia: NO!!! Not this again! It was bad enough last time.

???: Well well, out of the frying pan and into the fire.

From the top of a Sandy hill was-

Straw Hats: CROCODILE!!!

Luffy: HEY CROCODILE! What are you doing here?

Crocodile: Hahahahahahaha. Do I even need to explain my reasoning?

(Y/N): No, it makes it easier for us to still kick your ass like before.

Crocodile: Then I'll be waiting up ahead for you.

He disappears with the appearance of a sand tornado.

Though right then a few voices are heard.

???: Is he gone yet?

???2: I think so.

???3: Good, I think it's safe to come out now.

Right there were Usopp, Wendy, Carla, Bisca, Carrot, Laki, and Kinnana!

(Y/N): You guys are-

All of the girls soon hug you, and well Wendy was crying hard!

Wendy: You guys are alright! It was scary!

(Y/N): Hey it's alright. If anyone was scared, it would be Usopp.

Usopp: Please, I fought bravely! I conquered! I destroyed! I-

Chopper: Didn't you run away when all of those Baroque Works guys came after us?

Usopp: THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN!

Gajeel: Come on Long Nose stop embarrassing yourself.

(Y/N): Now look Crocodile probably went on ahead so we should-

But then you noticed Luffy and Chopper collapsing.

(Y/N): Brother.

Bisca: I'm surprised Chopper lasted longer than he did two years ago. All that fur would be horrible for him in this heat.

Pato: NUKIKIKI! Leave that to me!

Pato grabbed a leaf and wrote on it with his tail turning it into a drill!

Luffy: WOW!!! A DRILL TAIL!!! AWESOME!!!

Natsu: That's amazing! How did you do that?

Pato: I'm technically a devil fruit user you know!

Chopper: You could use some help! HORN POINT!

Chopper transformed and got his big horns.

Then the two started digging and a burst of water came out!

Everyone: ALRIGHT!!!

Soon...

The city of Alubarna was just up ahead. Deja vu was really turning up!

(Y/N): Alright where are you Crocod-

Crocodile shows up.

Crocodile: Welcome to your deaths, Straw Hats!

Luffy: I don't need water to beat you this time!

Several Baroque Works men came out and you guys had to take care of them Straw Hat Style, all while Luffy fought with Crocodile!

Luffy: HAVE THIS! GUM GUM RED HAWK!

Crocodile hardens his body with haki and defends, leading with-

Crocodile: DESERT SPADA!!

Natsu: Hang on Luffy! FIRE DRAGON WING ATTACK! Fire and sand together become glass!

Luffy: Ha! Thanks Natsu old pal! NOW HAVE SOME OF THIS! GUM GUM ELEPHANT GUN!!

Crocodile: I WILL NOT LOSE AGAIN!!

Crocodile continues to attack, but only for Luffy to easily dodge his attacks and get a punch to the ground!

Luffy: AVON CALLED!

Crocodile: Damn.

Luffy: Now where are the others?

Crocodile: Hahahahahaha. Ever since that old man died, every battle has been drier than the last.

He then disappeared.
