Chapter 192 - Chapter 194

Name:A New Path Author:Vallori
Inside the main building of Enies Lobby, Robin was sitting huddled against the wall with a man practically scream-spitting in her face. This man was Spandam. He was the chief of the CP9, the group of agents that took Robin and Franky into custody. They were sitting on a couch in the same room, waiting for Robin's transfer to be accepted and ready to go.

"Not so tough now, are you?!" Spandam screamed directly in Robin's face. His iron face mask covered most of his head, but the parts of his face that one could see revealed the madness lying somewhat dormant inside of him. Robin wanted to refute him many times, but he didn't let her. whenever she would speak up, he would hit her across the face leaving a bright red mark and some blood, or he would increase the volume of his voice to overpower hers.

Rob Lucci, the leader of the CP9 agents and the one leading the mission to kidnap Robin suddenly stood up with a worried expression. "Chief, call an emergency alert. Lockdown Enies Lobby and contact Marineford!" He said and his voice was no longer stoic and cold. He looked genuinely worried.

"What's going on? What do you mean?" Spandam took a break from abusing Robin and asked Lucci.

"We're under attack!" He said and pointed out the window. Outside, as soon as Lucci said they were under attack, and explosion occurred by the main gate. Spandam's jaw hit the floor before rage started flowing through him.

"WHO THE HELL IS ATTACKING US? GO DEAL WITH IT!" He looked at the members of CP9 and screamed in their faces. His spit flew everywhere and he ran over to his desk and picked up his snail phone.

"It's not working! Why the hell is this not working?!" Spandam screamed when he failed to get a signal.

"They cut our communications, we appear to be on our own!" The only female CP9 agent said cautiously. "Blueno, go and find out who it is that's attacking us." She said to a man that had hair like two horns on top of his head.

"Right away!" He said and opened a door in mid-air and stepped inside and disappeared.

"Chief, stay here while we go and deal with this," Lucci said now that he had somewhat calmed down. The reason he panicked wasn't that they were under attack. No, as the explosion went off, he had felt an incredible aura. Something he would have expected from an emperor. It disappeared as soon as he felt it, but just that tiny bit of it had him pretty shaken up.

"Obviously, it's your job to fix this stuff!" Spandam said and sat down at his desk and started fiddling with the snail phone trying to fix the connection issue.

***********************************************

At the entrance to Enies Lobby, the Straw hats had arrived and had begun their assault on the Government Base. Currently, they were stuck outside the gates battling hundreds of Marines and Government agents. Toshiro and Lubbock sat upon the first gates of Enies Lobby while observing the fighting. "So, that's Ace's little brother? He doesn't look like much, does he?" Lubbock said as he glanced at his brother.

"Well, I think he has great potential to be someone strong. It's just that he might be a little too dense for my liking. He is the kind of person that will die fighting for the most stupid reason. I dislike those people."

"isn't the boss like that?" Lubbock asked as he was trying to embarrass Toshiro.

"Yeah, maybe. But, in his case, it's different as he can't die." Toshiro sighed.

"HEY! WHO ARE YOU? GET DOWN FROM THERE!" Ontop the gate, a Marine rookie had seen two teenagers sitting on the edge overlooking the fighting in the distance. And as those two teenagers turned around, the rookie's face twisted into terror. "T-T-T-TOSHIRO!!" The marine stumbled backwards and immediately took off towards the door leading off this roof above the gate.

"What was that about? How come he didn't acknowledge me?" Lubbock said in anger. He stood up quickly, "I'll go and beat some sense into that marine brat. Teach him who the true scariest brother is!"

"Sit down, idiot! We have a guest!" Toshiro said lazily.

"Hm, you mean him?" Lubbock pointed at nothing on the roof. But, where he pointed soon opened up like a door and out from seemingly mid-air stepped a man in a black suit.

"Toshiro the Traitor. Lubbock the Mass Murderer. Are you two the ones organizing this little attack?" Blueno asked the two commanders. He had his guard up but still faced them both calmly.

"No, this is all their dealings. Robin is part of their crew, right, so they're here to get her back. Don't you think so, brother?" Lubbock asked Toshiro cheerfully.

"Indeed. they're stupid and naive."

"Are you two going to interfere?" Blueno asked with his guard now raised slightly in case they would attack.

"Hm, are we?" Toshiro said to himself.

"I don't know, brother. Should we start a massacre? I could increase my fame further by starting a slaughter at Enies Lobby." Lubbock turned and smiled at blueno. The CP9 agent felt his mood worsen and a bad feeling started rising in his chest.

"You should run along now, little agent. We have no interest in you, but if you continue to bother us. I will kill you myself." Lubbock said and raised his aura to put some cracks under his feet. Blueno was forced to take a step back when he was faced with that aura. "A-Air-door!" Blueno used his power to escape the place.

"Don't you get bored with bullying government agents"? Toshiro asked his brother with a lazy expression.

"Never!" Lubbock said arrogantly and sat down next to his brother.

***************************************

Back in Spandam's office, a door opened up in mid-air and blueno came falling out of it. He had sweat running down his face and he looked around in worry, presumably checking so he landed in the right place.

"Oy, Blueno, how did it go? And, why are you so jumpy?" Kalifa, the female CP9 agent asked worriedly.

"They're here! They've come!" Blueno said between deep breaths.

"What are you talking about? Who has come?"

"The Gotei! The twins are here, by the first gate!" Bluenot's words caused distraught among the group. Spandam immediately felt his life flash before his eyes.

"This is retribution for all the evil you've done!" Robin sat with a smug smile and looking straight at the chief of the CP9. Among the many things, Spandam despised, one of them were people looking down on him.

"YOU, SHUT UP!" Spandam didn't have time to say anything more as the windows in his office all exploded inwardly at the same time. One of the pieces of glass from one of the windows flew in the direction of Spandam and pierced his right arm and lodged itself in there. "AAAAHHH, SON OF A BITCH!!"

From the outside, a man floated in and touched ground on the floor of the office. "I am here for a pickup!"
