Leaders Meet:
-Royal Palace-
"MOVE IT! GET OUT OF THE WAY! STAND ASIDE!" someone shouted outside of the Royal Palace. Four people charged up the palace steps towards the double doors that still had Ms. All Sunday's sixteen arms coming out of them. "RAAAAH!" One of the men raised his sword and slashed the nearest arm. SLISH!

Passed the gate, inside the courtyard outside of the palace, Ms. All Sunday recoiled and held her arm in pain.
Y/N was still sitting shirtless at her feet with his arms bound behind him and his legs tied together with the chain from Vivi's Peacock Slashers. He had managed to maneuver himself so he was sitting with his legs out in front of him while his hands held him up from behind. He noticed when the woman standing over him flinched and looked over at the outer doors just as they flew opened. WHAM! Four men charged into the courtyard.
"LORD CHAKA! PLEASE WAIT!" one of the new arrivals shouted.
"Huh? Who're they?" Crocodile wondered.
"The Guardians..." Chaka said as he recognized the men.
"The Kicking Claw Clan!" Vivi exclaimed.
"The what?" Y/N dead-panned, he and Ms. All Sunday shared a confused look before turning back to the new arrivals.
The four men were wearing the uniform of the Royal Army as well as dark hooded capes with white decorative ears on the sides of their hoods. Each of them was armed with a different weapon and wore dark face paint.
The first man was a large muscular man with a pronounced chin that was coated in a short layer of stubble. His weapon was a huge sword that was as big as he was and looked like a huge butcher knife. A single dark line of face paint ran down from the brim of his hood, went between his eyebrows, down his nose and stopped at the end.
The second man was pale-skinned and hunchbacked and his eyes were hidden by his light brown hair. A dark line of face paint went down the middle of his nose and stopped at the end. He was wielding two large bladed spears, one in each hand.
The third man was tall and thin with a pointed chin. He had a line of dark face paint going down his nose, as well as around his eyes, and along his jaw. He was wielding a double-edged sword with a golden hilt.
The fourth man was bulky and kind of fat. He had a line of dark face paint going down his large nose and dark circles around his eyes as well as two thick lines under his eyes. His weapon was an ax with a dark blade and a shaft that had holes in it and made it look like a flute.
These four men were the elite Royal Guards known as the Kicking Claw Clan. They served under Chaka and were the Guardians of Alabasta.
"Don't attack men!" King Cobra pleaded with the four warriors. He still had nails going through his elbows effectively crucifying him against the front of the palace. "You'll only be throwing your lives away!"
"Hmph..." the thin guard with the sword grunted.

"THEY BROKE THE DOOR DOWN!" one of the Royal Army soldiers shouted from down in the square.
"A daring move," another soldier commented.
"PLEASE! SAVE HIS MAJESTY AND PRINCESS VIVI!" Knowing that the Kicking Claw Clan were the elite of their army and that the rest of them would only be a distraction if they went in after them, the rest of the Royal Army remained outside in the square.

"Your majesty," the large muscular man with the big butcher knife sword addressed the King. "Defending you to the death is not only our mission it is the highest honor and privilege. Therefore we can not simply avoid him."
