One Piece (Love Story) [Part Two]

Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Six [Rewritten]

-Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty-Six-

"Shut up!" the two heads snapped.

"Just give me a status report, dammit!" Spandam snapped. "Is it true that the intruders have made it to the courthouse plaza or not?" he asked, causing a smile to tug at my lips as I heard just how frantic he sounded at the idea that we had already made it this far. With a silent chuckle, I locked my swords around the Marines and threw him back before turning as another one came rushing towards me.

"Let's see" Left Baskerville hummed.

"A status report, huh?" Central Highway muttered in thought as we continued to take down more and more Marines.

"That's a tricky one..." Right Baskerville admitted.

"They're not so much in the plaza as they are inside the courthouse" Left Baskerville finally informed the man on the other end of the call.

"It's just awful!" all three heads shouted.

"What?!" Spandam screamed.

"Chief—Chief Justice! I have a report!" one of the Marines called out. "The pirates have cut through our defenses and broken down the front door! They're currently inside the courthouse!" he reported.

"We can see that, fool!" the three heads snapped.

"Not much resistance as I expected" Zoro noted. "We should be able to tear right through" he said.

"You think so?" I asked, tilting my head.

"Yeah—wait, what's that?" he asked, only just now taking notice of the three-headed man who sat at the front of the room.

"Are you telling me that you're just now noticing them?" I sweat dropped. "They're kind of not that hard to miss."

"Whoa! What?!" a member of the Franky Family gasped. "He's got three heads!" he shouted as Chief Justice started to pound his gavel against his desktop.

"He's just like that dog that guards the underworld!"

"Revberus!"

"You mean Cerberus!" Zambai and I snapped.

"Order in the court, dammit!" Central Freeway snapped. "This is a sacred chamber of law, you hooligans! You have the nerve to bust in here, so shut up, sit still, and receive your sentence!" he angrily huffed as Yokozuna continued to knock back any Marines that attempted to enter the courthouse from outside.

"Alright, guys, you head to the roof and join up with Straw Hat! We'll stay here at the door with Yokozuna and hold off the Marines!" Zambai shouted. "We'll watch your backs, so keep moving, and don't worry about the small fries!" he grinned.

"You got it!" Zoro nodded.

"Hey, looks like they're starting some kind of trial over there!" Nami pointed.

"Wouldn't surprise me, this is a courthouse after all" I said.

"Who cares?" Zoro scoffed with the roll of his eyes. "Just ignore them—which way do we go?" he asked.

"Straight ahead," Nami answered, "there are stairs on both sides" she pointed out as she motioned toward the two sets of staircases on either side of the judge. "Let's make our way to the top!"

"Hey! They ignored the trail!" a Marine scowled. "I know they're pirates, but seriously? How rude can these guys get?!" he snapped.

"Bastards! How dare you mock the Judicial Island!" another growled. "I'll teach you respect!" and with that, he aimed his gun right toward us before being taken aback when Zoro suddenly turned and faced him. "Are his swords bending or am I seeing things?" he nervously asked.
