281. The Centaurus

281. The Centaurus

They walked up to the huge gates that was closed down and given warning signs. The signs were so many that one would definitely turn after seeing them.

"Looks like some kind of hazardous zone." Robin said.

"But there are people inside." Luffy said as he concentrated on the Haki a bit. "Ken, can you hear them?"

"Yeah. There are children inside and probably some researchers." Ken replied.

"Children and researchers? They are conducting experiments on children?" Robin speculated. Ken shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Seems like it."

"These bastards!" Jinbe was incensed and cursed.

"Send the information over to Merry." Luffy said. Robin nodded and sent the information over the Merry with the help of new holographic watch that they had newly got themselves. The watch was made with the toughest of metals and thus almost indestructible until someone used internal destruction on the watch itself.

The watch could be used for communication, send videos and audios over a specific range, which would cover most of an island and also send their position over. The Straw Hats always had the habit of breaking up and doing their own thing independently, thus Ken made a point to provide a powerful GPS to everyone in the team.

After Robin sent the information and the pictures over, Ussop and the wimps were glad that they didn't come. Even after all the abilities and power they had, they still were cowards at the core.

Ken pulled out his sword and swung multiple times at the huge gate, thus cutting the gate in a few big pieces. With that, The 4 people walked straight in. After walking for sometime, they realized that this island held civilization once upon a time and now it had ruined and left. Only thing that left were the dilapidated buildings and a story who nobody would know.

As they shouted for the man who called for the emergency, they heard some deep growls. At first they thought that it was some kind of animals but the truth couldn't be much further. They finally got to see what was growling so deep. It was a dragon.

"Ah Ace.. Why are you here?" Luffy shouted.

"From what angle he is Ace, you idiot." Ken and Jinbe shouted. Jinbe knew that Ace had a character that was almost a dragon but in no way this ugly dragon could ever be Ace. This dragon had a huge head and the body was too fat to be as cool as Ace.

"Are you serious?"

"Wow.. Sugee"

Robin and Jinbe were dumbfounded while Luffy was urging this waist to speak.

"And how is the waist still alive?" Robin asked.

"Because the Death Surgeon is here." Ken replied.

"Trafalgar Law? I heard he submitted hundred hearts of pirates to the government." Robin said. "In order to become a Warlord. Why is he here?"

"Who knows. But looking that the waist, I am sure that Law did this." Ken said.

"Agreed." Jinbe replied. As they were discussing, they heard a lot of noise and within minutes they were approached by half men, half animals people. They came in all shapes and sizes. Some had a scorpion back, some were actual Centaurus and some even had weird arms. Luffy was more excited seeing them as he thought he had found his friends since they were Centaurus.

But of course, it was not like that at all, as these people charged at them with full force thinking they were the enemy. Ken summoned Mjolnir and struck at them with the hammer, while Jinbe just used Fishman karate to bring them down.

Robin and Luffy just threw some punches and some back cracking to bring these people down.

"Oye.. why did you all attack us?" Luffy was the first to ask.

"It's.... It's because you are the enemy.." one of them with a huge waist of some lizard animal said.

"Why would you think we are the enemy?" Jinbe asked.

"It's because we have never seen you before and this man has a sword on his waist."
