197. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me

With no other indication, Luffy jumped on the CP agents, followed by others. Seeing the response of the Straw Hats, the CP agents proceeded to kill their hostage in the split second that they had gotten themselves. The World Government was desperate to get Nico Robin and the Pluton plans from Franky, but that didn't mean that they would jeopardize leaving them alive and free. Nico Robin had slipped from their fingers for quite a long time.

But not anymore. The CP agents pointed their fingers at their brains and proceeded to use the Shigan (finger pistol) to kill them, but this is where they got the surprise of their lives. Suddenly, out of nowhere, they felt pressure being washed upon them. A pressure that was unique to only a few in the world.

Conqueror's Haki. And that split-second hesitation was enough for the straw hats to land their moves on the CP agents.

"Grow: Nyoibo"

"Yōkatotsu." (Sunflower Thrust)

"Diable Jambe: Bian Kyui: Guriru Shotto" (Bien Cuit: Grill Shot)

Ussop and Nami used their own moves to shoot at the other CP agents. Each of the moves landed on the enemies so fast that the CP agents didn't have time to recover from their surprise at the Conqueror's haki. Luffy's staff grew in length at a speed that couldn't be explained by science and hit the CP agent that was holding Vivi. Meanwhile, Vivi helped too, as she suddenly grew spikes from multiple angles.

He was able to stack the breathing forms too. He used it for lightning breathing and sun breathing, and it gave him immense speed, almost reaching the speed of Sanji. And Beast's breathing was able to make sure that his agility didn't suffer. It was a nightmare for the CP agents as he used weird moves on them, and the use of haki wasn't a good sign to them because they weren't versed in that at all.

Ken was also a menace, as he beat the agent up after taking him under genjutsu for a second and then proceeded to hit him with haki with a barrage of punches. The agent was a zoan fruit user in rabbit form, but his hooping skills didn't help at all as he beat up the CP agent. The other CP agent who was going to save his colleague stopped and looked at Ken in horror. He never expected that Ken would be so brutal, breaking the leg bones of the half-rabbit into pulp.

He now understood why the government had named him the Punisher. It was an apt name for him. The CP agent took a few steps back as he looked at Ken, who slowly got up after beating him and then looked at the agent. Ken didn't go after the agent immediately.

It was because it was this guy who had the den den mushi with Marijoa. Meanwhile, the lower dock of the Water 7 was in ruins. More damage than the Aqua Laguna could ever imagine inflicting. The battlefield was in shambles with craters, fire burning in various rubbles, wind blowing at full intensity, and vanishing-teleporting silhouettes in multiple places. Iceburg and Franky looked at the straw hats in awe. Iceberg felt glad that he had trusted the Straw Hats at the last moment and took down Buster Call and now the CP agents too.

Vivi and Robin were the spectators at the moment, while Chopper had turned into a gorilla and was fiercely standing in front of Robin and Vivi in the fear that another CP agent would come. Though now all the straw hats had their observation haki to the full, especially Ken, Ken still wanted Chopper to be the defense.
