Undying Will 39 Shake Down!

"…and then I stabbed that dratted fish person in the chest with my trusty rusty razor sharp saber! Down he went that b.a.s.t.a.r.d bleeding like an inky octopus! Brats you think you can do that?.." he said gesturing thoughtlessly with his hands high and a euphoric look in his eyes. "Then of course I returned here when I heard that my ma' was ill, been staying with her ever since…. All the cash I ama.s.sed in the oceans I splurged on her healing, all the doctors here know me, so brat, as a fellow sailor mind spotting me a bit of cash? I swear it won't be much.." he said drawing an anticlimactic climax to his made up story.

"Ok" Sorren replied before digging through his pockets and handing the man a handful of jewels, "I am a doctor, old man why don't I take a look at your mum?" he said solemnly looking at him.

"Un.." the man replied, obviously distracted by the pile of jewels in his hand "It's this way.." he continued distractedly as he hobbled into a wide street diagonal to the fountain, he maintained pace as he led us through sometimes looking back at us eagerly to make sure that we followed him.

"You know that this man is probably a fraud right?" Fawkes asked puzzled at my silence on the matter. "Yes, and I am sure that lil' Sore knows that too, he probably gave the man the gold in an attempt to tempt him, all crime in this city is controlled by the three big families the San Juan, the Bonnano and the Gambino family. This man must be affiliated to one of these three, probably the San Juan s, because they are the strongest family here.

So by following this man, we might be able to get to the Syndicate's base, and maybe gaining clues on Doflamingo's stash here. Also we'll be able to counter rob them even if these people don't know anything about that Flamingo's stash, they most definitely have a stash of their own!" I replied chuckling slightly at Sorren's genius.

"You almost had me fooled! I never thought that the brat was the scheming sort, he hid deep!!" Fawkes remarked with respect in his eyes. I nodded proudly smiling, "What do you expect from people from MY crew?"

"Put a lid on it.." Fawkes retorted as he made his way to the front of the group standing beside Sorren who followed the old man with an Oscar worthy solemn look. 'Awesome acting!!' I thought as I mentally gave him a thumbs up.

The man turned into a side alley chuckling to himself at his supposed wind fall. "It's just around here Benefactors, with what you have given me, my mother will be finally healed!!" he said with big droplets of water falling from his eyes and a terrifying amount of snot dripping from his nose.

I wrinkled my forehead with a slight amount of disgust, spreading my Haki around the alleyway immediately recognizing three different energy signatures.

'I knew it! This was an ambush'.

"Now benefactors, if you would kindly empty your pockets onto the pavement.." the man said, his pathetic face immediately transforming into a sleazy look that one would only usually see on unscrupulous businessmen.

He wore a smug and shameless smile on his face that resembled the face of a man who convinced a young girl into prost.i.tution, all the while convincing her that the decision would benefit her.

Surprise colored my face as Sorren retained his solemn demeanor, "Oh, you need to ensure that we don't carry any toxic substances right? No worries, no worries all we have in our pockets are some jewels" he said.

A low chocking sound rang from Fawkes's throat as he looked at me accusingly as if to say: 'You said he knew this man was a fraud!!'

"What? No!! I lied now hand me all your money!!" he roared as he beckoned for the men hiding in the shadows to appear.

"So, uncle you lied to me?" Sorren asked still solemn about the matter. If this situation had not occurred to me, I would probably be on the floor laughing, but since I was involved I had a strange urge to throttle Sorren's fat neck, tick marks appearing on my forehead. Fawkes stood next to me, having much the same expression on the boundary between laughter and tears.

"YES! Of course I lied to you! do you not understand that brat?? how thick are you!! Boys, rough 'em up!" The man said rubbing his forehead in frustration .

Sorren slowly exhaled, anger obvious on his face. "Captain, these people are bad people! I am going to beat them up!!" he said in a suppressed voice. "Go ahead, but don't kill them, and leave some conscious!" I said before walking further back and resting my back onto the rocky black walls.

A soft bang echoed in the air as Sorren charged forward, moving with a force of a compressed artillery sh.e.l.l. Smacking sounds soon followed as he slapped everyone in front of him.

Three men attacked him together swinging down with their flimsy batons. Sorren barreled into one shoulder first, catching him in the chest before the swing could be completed, before delivering a round house kick to another hitting him to the base of his skull.

The final man looked on in terror as the fat tank approached him, he looked between his comrades, the tattered clothes wearing beggar and Sorren before decisively abandoning his weapon and running away. Sorren looked at him disdain on his face before he Soru'd to his side delivering a chop to his neck causing him to crumple to the ground.

The three men groaned in pain as they looked at us, a devilish smile spread over my lips as I exhaled walking towards the only standing contestant of the failed robbery.

"Ok, line up! Men to the right and women to the left! This is a shake down!!!"
