75. What a bitch!

75. What a bitch!

"That's none of your business." Smoker got agitated when he was asked that. It was as if Ken had poked a small wound that should not be touched. He again took his weapon and tried hitting Ken only to be deflected by his hammer.

Ken had controlled his power but Smoker felt a huge force being transferred to his body from his seastone weapon. He had taken a few steps back and held his hand with the other to even realize that the massive force that just got passed to him.

"What kind of monster are you?" Smoker asked as he didn't expect a teenager to have that kind of strength.

"Luffy, go to the ship. I will come soon." Ken said.

"But how will you defeat this smokey?"

"I will take care of it. I have my own means." Ken assured Luffy.

"Okay. Be there. On time." Luffy said and then he vanished using the Body Flicker Jutsu. Smoker elementalized himself and threw a punch at Luffy who had gone quite the distance, but this was again stopped by Ken.

Ken threw Mjolnir which disrupted Smoker's attack and he had to bring his 'hand' back. Magically, the hammer returned back to Ken. Smoker was more surprised by this. He could already say that Ken had something to do with lightning.

But this phenomenon of hammer returning back to the owner. This was the first one.

And without much thought he delivered an electric shock. Smoker by instinct again made his hand turn into smoke so he didn't get electrocuted. And that was the mistake.

Smoker's hand let go of the seastone weapon. This was the aim for Ken. His weapon. Their crew didn't have a seastone weapon to boot. Now he had one. He always believed in his strength but there should always be a backup plan or else he would be like Luffy, hanging on thread and just away his cheap life.

Since he didn't know about Armament Haki it was better to get one of the best things to handle it.

Smoker didn't expect that. He was so engrossed in the monstrosity and how easily he was being manhandled that he had forgotten that his own weakness was his own weapon and now he just lost it due to momentary carelessness. The dust had already settled and Smoker got to see Ken again. This time instead of the hammer he was holding his very own weapon.

A weapon that was his nemesis.

"Punisher Kenny, you are more cunning than you let people."

"No, my dear Smokey, it's just that you are weak and think every pirate here is beneath you. You got complacent. You are so old and you still don't know haki. Don't you feel ashamed that people from your age are at Vice -Admiral Rank. You have logia. People in the headquarters would scream to have your logia fruit. It's a waste of a devil fruit on you."

"You little bitch.." Smoker got incensed and punched at Ken with his fist while turning half of it into smoke. Ken had already expected and dodged and just used the tip of his new weapon and stabbed at Smoker's hand.

It was lucky that the weapon wasn't sharp or else he would have lost his hand in that.
