Grand Line – Paradise 

Little Garden

"You guys got lucky, I have more important things to do", Brogy says, beginning to walk toward Dorry's house for their duel. 

"What... wait—", Sabo begins to say, confused as to why Brogy had stopped his advance against him, only to be interrupted mid-sentence when he sees Luffy's body hitting him like a missile with his Advanced Observation Haki. 

Sabo, not wanting to be hit, steps to the side, avoiding Luffy, who flies past him in the next moment, just after a loud crash is heard from afar, hitting the same mountain where Brogy was thrown earlier. 

=Scene Break= 

Going back a few seconds in time, to the moment when Luffy had placed himself in front of Dorry, trying to stop him from fighting in this state. 

"Get out of my way, kid, this is the last time I'll ask. Until now, I've taken it easy on you because I didn't think you were that strong, I won't make the same mistake, so get out of my way", Dorry says with a serious face, warning Luffy to move out of his front. 

"As I said before, someone sabotaged the rum, this is no longer a fair duel. You two will have to forgive me for this, but I'm getting in the middle of this duel", Luffy says, being interrupted by Dorry appearing in front of him, moving as quickly as Luffy does when he enters Gear Second. 

Having only enough time to coat his arms with Armament Haki, Luffy blocks a powerful vertical sword strike from Dorry, coming from below, with his arms, which ends up sending him flying away like a missile, stopping only after colliding with the mountain where Brogy's house was located. 

=Scene Break= 

Facing Dorry, Brogy comments upon seeing his friend all beaten up, "Sabotaged rum too?" 

"Yeah, I thought it was the kids we met, but I was wrong. The crew of the kid with the straw hat is made up of nine people and two animals, there are thirteen people on the island plus those two animals, so there are four intruders on the island", Dorry says, informing him of what he knew. 

"Are you sure about that?", Brogy asks, uncertain if this information was correct. 

"I don't know about the group you were talking to, but their captain, the kid with the straw hat, seemed like a real proud warrior. Sabotaging someone's rum didn't seem like something someone like him would do", Dorry says, speaking about the impression he had of Luffy. 

"Well, they seemed like a really cheerful and sincere group, and although I'm sure some of them would be capable of something like that, from the way they talked about that straw-hat kid, I'm sure they wouldn't do something like that behind their captain's back. They seemed to respect him too much, and from what you said, if that kid said it wasn't them, then it wasn't them. After our duel, I'll have to apologize to the kids for attacking them earlier", Brogy says, giving his opinion after hearing what Dorry had to say about Luffy and his crew. 

"Well, we'll deal with this sabotage business after our duel. Now enough talk, let's fight", Dorry says before charging at Brogy, who does the same. 

=Scene Break= 

While the two giants were having this conversation before starting their duel, Luffy crawls out of the hole his body made in the mountain's surface. 

Wiping the little blood running from a slight scrape on his forehead, Luffy then disappears using Soru, appearing next to Sabo, who was already giving him a confused look. 

"What's going on, Luffy?", Sabo asks, completely confused by everything happening. 

"There are four intruders on the island, they sabotaged the rum, I don't know why. Gather the crew, deal with these guys, and then come back here. While you're doing that, I'll stop these two stubborn ones before they kill each other in this sabotaged fight", Luffy says quickly, giving his orders before disappearing again with Soru. 

"Alright then... the guy shows up out of nowhere, says a bunch of stuff, and just vanishes", Sabo grumbles before disappearing with his own version of Soru, going to do what Luffy had asked him to do. 

=Scene Break= 

In the middle of a vertical attack from Dorry, coming from an upward angle, as his sword, coated with Haki, was about to hit Brogy's Haki-coated shield, Luffy appears between the two giants, stopping Dorry's sword attack with his Haki-coated hands, using Brogy's shield as an anchor point. 

As the sound of the impact echoes through the island, with Brogy managing to stay firm despite the strong hit, the two giants then notice Luffy standing in the spot where their attack should have made contact, hearing the small one yell afterward, "Stop both of you, this duel was sabotaged, it's not a fair duel more!" 

"Get out of the way, you're still a kid and don't understand anything." "You're very persistent, kid, do you really want to fight us both? I won't hold back, I'll give it my all", Brogy and Dorry comment, respectively. 

"Come at me, you old men, it's nap time for both of you, about eleven hours should be enough for you to fully recover", Luffy comments with a smile, imagining that eleven hours would be enough for the two to recover completely. 

As soon as Luffy says this, Brogy moves his shield downward abruptly, completely removing Luffy's anchor point, and he is then launched like a missile into the sky by Dorry's now completely unobstructed attack, as Luffy no longer had a 'ground', in a way, to support himself. 

"Fuuuck!", Luffy screams awkwardly, with his body spinning uncontrollably in the air as he rapidly rises higher and higher, heading towards the blue sky. 

Only after passing through the clouds, losing some speed as he went through a patch of white sea in his path, does Luffy manage to stabilize himself in mid-air as his upward speed decreases until finally stopping before gravity starts pulling him back down. 

Luffy then accelerates his fall by entering Gear Second and using a combination of Soru and Geppo, quickly crossing the patch of white sea below, producing continuous sonic booms in his descent's wake. 

In an instant, Little Garden appears below, getting closer and closer to Luffy's view, who, instead of slowing down, increases his speed, falling like a meteor between the two giants, who had resumed their fight. 

Rewinding a few seconds in time, right after Luffy was sent flying into the sky, the two giants resume their duel, only for a few seconds of combat later, as they were charging toward each other, Luffy suddenly falls from the sky between them, making the entire island shake with the impact of his landing and forcing Dorry with his sword and Brogy with his shield to defend themselves from the abundant debris of dirt and soil launched into the air by his meteoric descent. 

"...Sigh... Fine, kid, if you want to interfere so badly with our duel, then don't come complaining if you end up dying after what's coming next", Dorry says before suddenly disappearing, charging at Luffy with several sonic booms accompanying his trajectory.
