Ghost Rider Through The Multiverse - Chapter 23

(I have been binge reading stuff.

Shorter chapter because I haven’t been in the mood to write. Sorry.)

(I have other fanfic ideas:

Star Wars – rebirth, no wishes, no harem.

Ben 10 – rebirth, wish fulfillment, system, mixed world, small harem of 2 or 3.

I don’t wanna have multiple projects, but I kinda want to do these. It’s having these in my head that’s making writing this difficult.)

It had been a few hours since the fight with Wapol and it had become dark. Nami has been released after relentlessly nagging and some bargaining. Kureha wanted into the armoury, but the key was destroyed along with Wapols body, but Nami remembered Leo’s materialization ability. She got her medical bill cleared and was told that she could leave, but wasn’t given permission at the same time.

Leo’s clones had also completed recreating the island and relocating some of the animals.

Chopper was now running towards them with an angry witch-cough-Kureha on his tail, throwing knives around.

He was in his reindeer form, dragging a sleigh behind him. He shouted for them to get in and jumped onto the rope way to get down. Leo just jumped onto the rope behind the sleigh and ran after them. There was no way he was getting on that tiny thing.

They continued down the rope, past some shocked citizens and toward the ship.

When they got to the ship, they heard cannon fire and looked towards the mountain to see a beautiful scene, the lifes work of Dr.Hiriluk. Cherry blossoms in the land of snow.

Leo – ‘Definitely beats seeing it on a screen.’

They all stood there and appreciated the view, while Chopper was crying at the sight of his mentor’s and father’s work.

After a while, they all got on the ship, Vivi started panicking because Carue was missing, but then he popped out of the river like an ice cube.

After getting him on the ship, they set sail and Leo defrosted him.

Leo – ‘What is the world coming to…I’m using one of the most dangerous flames to exist, to defrost a duck…’

Vivi – “Are you okay, Leo?”

Leo – “Yeah… Yeah, I’m fine…”

While Leo was having a crisis, the others were throwing a welcome party for Chopper, except for Nami, who was shouting at them for not being sympathetic towards Carue.

Luffy didn’t see the problem, but then Nami raised the question of how Carue ended up in the river.

Zoro – “Probably slipped. Clumsy duck. Hahahaha.”

Carue – {QuAcK QuUaAcK!}

Chopper – “Carue said that Zoro was swimming in the river and he disappeared, so he drove in to save him and got frozen.”

*Thunk*

Nami – “It was your fault!”

Vivi asked about his ability to talk to animals, to which he explained that it was thanks to him originally being a reindeer.

Luffy – “Cool! That’s just like Leo.”

Usopp – “Huh? What do you mean?”

Luffy – “Leo can talk to animals too.”

Except for Sanji, they looked at him for confirmation.

Leo – “Yeah. I can also read minds and sense emotions.”

Luffy – “Woooaah!! You can read minds? Read mine.”

Leo – “You’re thinking of meat…”

Luffy – “You really can read minds!!”

After a bit of laughing, Luffy started to shout for Sanji to make some food.

Nami – “Anyways, it’ll be good to have a Doctor on board.”

Sanji – “A Doctor? Who?”

She pointed at Chopper.

Luffy/Sanji – “HE’S A DOCTOR!!?”

It was then that Chopper realized that he forgot his medical supplies, but Nami pulled out a bag that was apparently on the sleigh. Chopper then realized that Kureha wasn’t as mad as she made out.

The touching moment was then ruined by Luffy and Usopp’s shenanigans of dancing with baskets, with chopsticks in their noses and mouths.

Nami did shout at them to be quiet, but then Chopper joined them, causing her to become exasperated, so she went and sat beside Leo and Vivi.

Leo was just staring at the dancing trio.

Nami – “*Shivering* Haha! Best make sure not to use the chopsticks, just in case.”

Seeing that she was cold, he pulled her closer and raised his temperature for her. In response, she leaned into him, and they watched the others party.

…

In the morning, it started off with Sanji shouting at Luffy for eating the food in the fridge and telling Nami that this was why they needed a lock on it, which she agreed to, while whacking Usopp, Chopper and Carue, who were also part of the raid.

Nami ended up asking Vivi for more information about Crocodile and what they will have to deal with when they get to Alabasta. Essentially, he is seen as a hero by the people despite being a pirate, there will be high ranking Baroque works agents with Devil Fruit abilities and a couple thousand grunt, add on a rebellion on top of all that and you’ve got yourself a bullseye on you. Yaay…

What was Luffy’s take on all this?

Luffy – “So we just have to find this Crocodile guy and kick his ȧss!”

Sanji – “You didn’t follow anything she said, did you?”

Leo – “Can I just point out, if you give me about two days…? Yeah, two days. I could kill everyone.”

Leo stared at blankly for a moment, got up walked over to the side of the ship, stretched a bit, and then used every ounce of strength that he had, combined it with the Quake Quack fruit and punched out towards the sea, splitting it for as far as they could see. (A/N: Almight can suck it!)

Leo – “Wouldn’t be that difficult.”

Their mouths were agape at the sight. They never knew that he was so strong.

Leo – “So?”

Vivi – “Uhh…”

She didn’t even know what to say, but she fortunately didn’t have to.

Luffy – “No way, Leo!! If you do that, then I won’t get to fight!”

Leo – “Fine, fine. So, what should I do when we get there then?”

Luffy – “Uh… Take a nap…?”

Everyone – “…”

*Thunk*

Nami hit him for stupidity.

Leo – “Okay then… I guess I’ll just do whatever I want when we get there.”

So, after a pointless conversation, they set some not-so solid plans and continued on their way to Alabasta.

…

Over the next few days, Leo spent his time training with Zoro, practicing with his abilities or relaxing with Nami.

He also had to restock the food supply on the fourth day from his dimension, because a certain rubber jackass raided the kitchen. Again.

And on the fifth, they came across a huge amount of steam. Meaning an undersea volcano was there.

So, what was Leo’s first course of action?

He went over to Nami, gave her one of his Hellfire construct beacons, gave them warning and jumped in.

The rest of them stood there staring at where he jumped in.

Nami – “WHAT THE HELL LEO!!!?”

…

Leo was now swimming down through a bunch of bubbles, making his way to the origin.

Now, why was he doing this you may ask? And the answer is another question. Why not?

How many people can say that they have seen an undersea volcano up close?

He did have to deal with a few Sea Kings that were too ballsy for their own good. So yeah, they wont be running low on food for a little while and he got a bit stronger.

Swimming to the sea floor can be pretty boring, so he decided to listen to some music. Hellfire constructs for the win!

Fortunately, Leo wasn’t a normal person, he is faster, can make himself weigh more and sink faster, and doesn’t have to worry about the pressure. So he could get down much faster.

There was still hundreds of miles though and that takes time.

Time, that gave him the opportunity to attempt something he couldn’t on the boat.

One thing that he had discovered while practicing, was that he could increase the weight of his Hellfire constructs.

Got a good surprise out of Zoro with that one.

Anyways, what he wanted to try, was to see if he could cheat with his powers. The Kilo Kilo fruit goes up to 10 tons total and from what he can tell, an individual construct can take on that full weight and he can make more than one at a time. So, what if he made his chain and made each individual link weigh 10 tons? And what if he made thousands of them and clumped them into a ball?

Well, he sure as hell got to find out, when he started plummeting down to the sea floor. Yeah, that was pretty fun.

A couple hours later, he was presented with a magnificent sight of primal creation!

And a Sea King the size of Laboon, possessing a purple serpentine body, fins that look like they could cut through steel and a beak like a bird.

Leo – “I don’t suppose we can talk about this?”

Sea King – {ROOOAAAAR!!!}

Seemingly not happy about having it’s territory invaded, it wasn’t up for talking.

It showed this by hitting him with it’s tail, sending him straight into the side of the volcano, breaking through and into the magma filled centre.

Leo – ‘That fish is definitely stronger than me… How can there be something like this, just lying here?’

Making his way out of the volcano, he propelled himself towards the purple bastard like a torpedo and attempted stick a spear into it, but bȧrėly pierced its scales. The end result was, him giving it the equivalent of a splinter and then getting smacked into the ground again.

Leo – “That’s about to get old, real fast.”

Getting back up, he tried what he should have done the first time around, going for the head. Adding vibrations to the blade, he slashed its left eye, creating a 3 metre long gash.

Sea King – {GRRAAAAAAAAAGH!!!}

Needless to say, it was pissed. It glared at him with its remaining eye and then lunged at him with its mouth wide open.

Leo – “Shit.”

Sea King – {*NOM!*}

After swallowing Leo, the Sea King slithered over to the volcano and wrapped itself around it.

Meanwhile, Leo was regretting one more life choice.

With a blank expression, he stuck his spear into the wall of flesh to stop his decent into the Sea Kings stomach.

(A/N: I CRACKED THE FUCK UP!!! ‘He stuck his spear into the wall of flesh’!!! I swear it was an accident…)

Looking around, all he could see was the gross, slimy flesh of the beast and not to mention the smell.

Leo – “I hate this, so, so much… Aand I’m talking to myself.”

Tired of this day and angry about being eaten, Leo started making spears and throwing them around randomly, making the Sea Kings insides look like a pin cushion. And then… *BOOM!!!*

Using the the power of the Bomb Bomb Fruit, he well… bombed it.

Blood, guts and bone were now floating around the sea floor. Along with a blood and guts covered Leo, and the head and body of the Sea King.

Leo – “Yup, I’m done.”

Throwing the two pieces of the Sea King into his inventory, consumes the soul, opened up an orange sparking portal to where his beacon is and stepped through.

(1970 tons)

…

Beside the deck of the Going Merry, Leo’s portal opened, letting water jet out and caused the crew to look over in confusion.

Leo stepped out of the portal, surprising the others as he dropped onto the hand railing while covered in blood.

Leo – “Not. A. Word.”

Before anyone could say anything, he shut them down.

With a grumpy expression, he briefly burst into flames, ridding himself of the blood and drying him. He then stomped off to the side, made a seat and sat down while muttering obscenities.

Everyone else simply went back to their business, waiting for him to settle down. Well, except Nami, who walked behind him angrily, raised her hand and tried to hit him on the head. ‘Tried’ being the operative word.

Instead of the expected *Thunk*, her hand sunk into his body as he turned to earth, making her panickedly retreat.

Leo glared at her for trying to hit him.

Leo – “Don’t try that again. The others might let you pull that shit, but I won’t.”

His glare caused her to flinch, then she remembered that he wasn’t the type to accept being hit without reason.

Nami – “… sorry…”

With a grunt, he stopped glaring at her. She continued standing there, shifting on the spot.

Seeing her all awkward and shifting, Leo sighed in frustration.

Leo – ‘I was a little too harsh… Why am I having so much trouble controlling my temper?’

Leo – “Look… I’m sorry. I’m just not in a good mood.”

He then made another another chair so she could sit with him.

She relaxed and sat with him.

Leo – “But seriously, don’t hit me.”

Nami – “*gulp* I understand. Sorry.”

After that, Leo lay back and started to relax next to Nami.

(I have nothing to say….)
