      Chapt. 103: The 3rd Round Begins, The Help From A Enemy?, The Cat Burglar's Plan

   What's with everything crumbling to pieces?, Luffy thought, running down the stairs, dodging the falling rubble, punching a hole in the ceiling, and landing inside the tomb, "CROCODILE, I'M HERE TO KICK YOUR SORRY ASS!"

"You again?," Crocodile seethed, glaring at Luffy, and the veins in his forehead popped, "HOW MANY TIMES MUST I HAVE TO KILL YOU BEFORE YOU GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL THAT YOU CAN NEVER DEFEAT ME!?

"As many times as it takes to get back what you stole from Vivi," Luffy frowned, his eyebrows scrunching together, and glaring at Crocodile, "AND I WON'T STOP UNTIL I GET IT BACK FOR HER!"

Just who is this kid? Cobra thought, looking at Luffy in astonishment, and his eyes wide in surprise, No matter what Crocodile throws at him, this boy always seems to come back more determined than the last time.

"Straw...Hat...," Robin chuckled weakly, laying on the ground, a light smile on her face, and watching Luffy in amusement, Why am I so glad to see Luffy? Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that in all the four years I worked with Crocodile, I have never seen him so flustered as he is now. It's amusing to see Luffy give Crocodile a run for his money, since no one else could even came close to being on Crocodile's level...that is until now.

"There is so many things that I've stolen," Crocodile smirked darkly, raising an eyebrow in a mocking manner, and shrugging his shoulders, "You'll have to be more specific."

"This country," Luffy frowned, staring at Crocodile with a blank expression, and narrowing his eyes slightly upon seeing Robin on the ground with a huge wound, "That is what you've stolen and I came here to get it back."

"I don't recall ever stealing this country yet," Crocodile smirked evilly, watching Luffy with a you-are-stupid look, and his smirk fell off his face when Luffy cut him off, "Besides, I have no intention of giving it back once I'm king..."

"Her country was already stolen the moment I set foot here," Luffy interrupted, a glare on his face, stretching his foot back, and kicking Crocodile, "THIS IS HER COUNTRY AND I WON'T LET YOU TAKE AWAY VIVI'S SMILE ANYMORE!!!"

That ignorant fool forgot he can't hit me without water...GAAHHH...HOW IN THE HELL CAN HE KICK ME WHEN HE DOESN'T...Ah, I see, he used his blood. Maybe this kid isn't as stupid as I gave him credit for, Crocodile thought, being sent crashing into the ground by Luffy's kick to his cheek, glaring up at Luffy from the ground, narrowing his eyes at Luffy's foot, noticing the blood dripping down Luffy's leg, standing up, and smirking at Luffy, "I'm surprised that you came up with the clever idea to use your blood."

"Heh, blood hardens sand too doesn't it?," Luffy smirked, stretching his leg back to normal, and looking pretty pleased with himself, "I wasn't sure if it would work, but I figured since blood flows like water it has to work."
