Original Post By: frayz Frayzah bowed as Reo grabbed him then got up and listened as the Mink made a promise to destroy One Piece. The Vigilante was shocked by this because he thought Roger's treasure was only a legend.
‘Heheh, another crazy dream but then again so is mine.’
As the crowd clears, he approaches Reo.
“Nicely said Commodore. It's a dangerous goal but it would crush the spirits of pirates everywhere so I'm willing to help. By the way....”
He reaches into his pocket to grab his Baby Den Den Mushi and then passes it to Reo.
“...you should take this. I'll be making more on the journey so we can communicate while travelling.”
And with this the Marine Captain left the scene and boarded his ship, The Stormhawk where he and Chouee were greeted by his squad as they were preparing for departure.
‘So Arlong is next ay? Maybe I'll even get to see the Rear Admiral in action.’
“Okay men, leave on Reo's signal.”
He then started working on the Den Den Mushi, the 10 snails he found were much bigger than the last ones so they will have a much wider range. The only one with Frayzah as he did this was Chouee who was sitting close by and playing with a chew toy.

# The press conference was done so Shaarib after paying his respects to the Commodore Panda-Chan took the direction of his ship. While walking he slowly took out of a small dial of his many pockets and when he pressed on it, it expulsed a bi cloud that took the shape of a bridge that helped him get on his ship.
- Daddy’s home people.
He quickly thrown his coats to one of his marines. And took the direction of his quarter while yelling ! #
We are going to meet the big boss so you are going to clean those ! I want to make a good second impression. My first one was abysmal.
As the ship sailed through the calm sea below the skies were sky blue and warm as the sun was out beaming down making the weather very nice but that would be changing sometime soon. The skies would mirror the sea in sky blue with gentle looking clouds hovering around pure white and grey. Link was out on the ship ensuring everyone was doing what they was set out to do, though he stared at the clouds knowing anytime soon it would rain. After a 10 day journey set out after Link split up from the adventure set out to Kenzan Island with Drago, Musashi and Eve. The reason behind Link's u-turn or change of direction was because of info of a person he heard that was spotted in Orange Town a fellow he fondly remembered. Link before turning around placed his hand to cover the sun going into his eyes due to the midday time and proceeded to head back into the cabin.
Not long after squeals were heard as if the news coo flew above a medium sized gull with a white hat that deliver newspaper including news from over the world from the 4 blues, grand line and new world including the updated wanted bounty posters around the world. They are as if paper boys of the World Government as they would deliver the news and information around the world. The news coo gull dropped the recent issue of the newspaper as a member on board the ship grabbed it, opened it up stunning him and then ran to Link's cabin knocking on the wooden oak door.
Link who was sat perched on the bed staring at the ceiling wondering of all the events since Alabasta, of how he got there to being caught into the situation that was in Alabasta, being initiated into the Silver Hairs then their HQ's of Laughing Archipelago and then Kenzan Island. Link heard the knocking then stood up and pushed himself up off the bed walking to the door opening it seeing his crew member holding a newspaper offering him as Link took it out his hand slowly.
"Thanks" Link spoke as the crew member carried on to his duty as Link shut the door opening the newspaper revealing some bounty posters shocking Link as there was a bunch of posters. "Are these all Bounties? .... there's is a recent update right then maybe there's some for the Silver Hairs" he thought as he grabbed the dropped bounty posters that fell to the floor. Link then separated the bounties to know which ones were from the Silver Hairs and all others.
As Link separated the bountiesseeing bounties from Silver Hair, Everything, Backyard, Revo's and others. As he did that as if two devils came to his shoulders instead of one angel and one devil, as one walked up as Link looked to his left seeing a little devil version of himself but in pure black, dark grey and red eyes as Link raised his eyebrows in response. "Ehhh i am seeing things right it looks like me? ... whats going on here?" he thought. As the Dark Link spoke saying he's a manifestation of Link when his heart beats faster as his blood lust takes a form of him as another tries to catch his attention another that looked like Link a sky mint blue hat and tunic shirt going down almost his knees underneath a dark grey armor with gold looking design, with a dark blue navy undershirt including dark grey gloves with red pattern line through them. He also wore dark grey jeans with dark oak belt and boots, calling himself Fierce Diety as he spoke asking Link whether he knows where the others are though before Link could reply Dark Link spoke. Dark Link asked if whether Link knew he was a RP Character being written and played by a user named Gintoki in a One Piece RP on Thrillerbark forum originally from Oro Jackson.
This bemused Link as if he was lost then shook his head to get rid of the two sighing as he stared at the bounties as he took a sharp glance at each looking at bounty, which crew they was from and even their epithets. He slowly went through noting a few with huge bounties he would keep an eye on all but more in specific on the the Revolutionary Officer Jade, Captain of the Backyard Pirates and Everything Pirates noting he would be wary of. "Jade, This Slowdance guy, The captain of the Everything, that Humandrill, that giant with electricity and this one named Ko are the one's that seem interesting though i wouldn't wanna face them as of yet though would be interesting to hunt some of these others just to test their might. Though i wouldn't bother since i am no Marine Officer but yeah ... ! is that a Mink a tiger? interesting Killij is it?" Link stared at the bounties squinting at the Mink as Dark Link popped back up.
Dark Link wondered if this was one of his colleagues "No" replied Link though he is a Tiger Mink as Dark Link then replied wondering why Link never followed his Grandad in joining the Marines as his Grandpa was also an Admiral of the Army of Hyrule and oftenly would spar with Marine Admirals as the Kingdom of Hyrule was once a member of the WG. Link ignored the little devil grabbing the bounties of the Silver Hair Pirates, "Dango hey 37 Million, Sigmund 52 Million, oooh i got 64.68 Million, Musashi got a 100 Million, Gambit with a what ... 275 Million, Dragomir at 284 Million, Minuaino at 315 Million and the captain at 830 Million" exciting Link shocking him.
As a crew member sounded off stating they spotted Orange Town as they are nearing it and will anchor at the docks and prepare to land aboard. Link then grabbed the newspaper and bounties and placed it on his bed and walked out of his cabin walking on board of the ship "Hey all of you will stay on board the ship, i'll be going alone" Link commanded them.
"I hope your on this island Akuma!" Link wondered staring as the ship was being prepared to dock.
Buggy the clown, the fierce pirate of east blue. He with his pirate crew has invaded this town by forcing the citizens to flee. The town was wrecked by the occupation of Buggy's Band of Pirates, most of the villagers in Orange Town had fled to other parts of the island. Cabaji a tall slender man with a hairstyle that covers half of his face eyes moving to many directions landed on a ship that was about to be docked at Orange town port.
"There's ship!" He yelled to inform his captain who was sitting on a bar rooftop in the center of town
"Prepare the Cannon" A male high-pitched voice electrified the air around the Cabaji. it wasn't just any town; it was Pirate Captain Buggy's headquarters. And he never appreciated someone just coming here when they please, his cheeks matched the bright red color of his clown nose and his eyebrows were furrowed together in anger. "Blast that ship into pieces! And make sure you take all the ship's treasure too!"
"But Captain Buggy, It such a waste" A voice sounded from behind the man's back, It was buggy subordinate. Buggy just stared at him. He was starting to get red in the face, and this man knew that was a bad sign. In about three seconds he was going to pull his gun and give this subordinate painful death.
"You," Buggy said, "I'll give you just one chance to explain yourself. And then you're goin' off with the buggy ball on your head."
The man just looked at him, very calm and still. His eyes were trembling in fear. It was as if he hadn't heard. subordinate said who was very close to get unconscious by the glare of Buggy, "Maybe I put it wrong. Whether you want to destroy the ship or not is immaterial. What I want to say we better should take over the ship and it ours."
Now this shuck idiot making sense Buggy paused a few seconds, folded his arms and leaned back on his chair and spoke. "Then let's introduce them with the pride and joy of the Buggy Pirates " He got up from his chair and looked over the ship. "Let's show them hell!!!"
a sturdy young man with longer blonde hair that he lets hang wild in the front, but keeps its lengths bound and tied within a ponytail (though on occasions will undo ponytail and flick his hair back to free flow his hair), and piercing blue eyes. Whilst donning champion light blue tunic with his sword's attached to his sides with beige looking jean trousers and brown boots.
As we head into the city the sun beaming above in the early hours of the day, with smell of brew and odour of food whipping around every corner on a busy day with tourist and civilians getting the early day deals. This is Orange Town's finest known for their brewery, pet shop and is a black market connection of sale of sea life food.
We then head inside of one of the restaurant bars with wooden like effect inside with a mixture of circular and rectangular tables positioned evenly with bright chandelier with circular like effects with bright cream lights. We see a few arriving for their special breakfast as a man sat on a table with a dozen of plates chowing down.
The man who is tanned skinned with grown out hear resembling a lions mane donning dark-colored gi with the sleeves removed. Having crimson eyes, red hair, sharp, pointed teeth, and wearing brown sandals a little rucksack holding some shoes. Around his waist wearing a black belt at his waist and over his hands he either wears brown training gauntlets. He also has the hair on top of his head tied into a pigtail. He also wears his prayer beads like a sash.
Munch Munch, crunch crunch gulp, as he grabs a jug of water to his mouth before taking a few sips as his stomach rumbles as he takes a moment to sigh before continuing on crunching on the sausage and eggs whilst rotating the fork with the greenery. "Excuse me, can i get another plate ..." as he then lowers his volume and tone "This tastes good" as he licks his lower then upper lip salivating.
We then scale back to the ship as Link boards to Orange Town as he looks back nervously waving back "This is my first adventure on my own, so gotta be careful" he thought to himself as he waved his arm. He then takes his right arm forward as if a fist to symbolise as a thank you as Link shouts "If you guys are in trouble use the Den Den Mushi to contact me" as he smiled turning around and preparing to head within Orange Town.
Just moments after as Link jolly to the situation couldn't but help but admire the delightful outlook of the town with the whiff of food floating in the air as he sniffed smiling. "Really smells nice here, i can smell that fish, smell of the ocean and i can also smell ... " Link stated to himself but not too loud to be heard.
As the two devils returned one asking why Link's reaction hasn't been all ooh or ahh as Link rebuffs him as he knew speaking back will think others that he is mad as he headed into town.
Buggy is tall, with a blue-hairs an appearance resembling that of a clown. The big, red nose on his face is, in fact, his real nose. His face is covered with makeup, just like an actual clown, he has crossbones going down his face forming an X. He sunburned easily and he talked loud and if you didn't move fast enough to suit him, he'd clout you. That was his style-he was a thankless man with not a good word for anyone, a man who was convinced that the whole world is nothing for him.
"We're at close to them at last," Said Mohiji. Buggy first mate with a muscular torso and thick lips. He was wearing a white fur best that covers the area of his chest and green pants. As they walked together with Buggy and other fellow members of the crew. "What a nerve these people! How they come here in the face of what must have been a paralyzing shock when they're going to find that they have come to a wrong man territory. They're going to wet their pants when find it's captain Buggy they're messing with."
All the Pirates flourish their weapons and head off to within reach, waiting for the for ship riders to come in town. Those guys didn't lurk around like beasts or gave warnings because there wasn't a need to. It's their own territory, they always solved all problems in their own way. There was indeed no sound of anything in the street, It seems everyone was hiding inside there house as Buggy came out, so that the streets were nearly deserted. It was when those Buggy pirates' eyes were wandering around, searching for those who had traveled through that ship.
"I've had enough," Buggy finally announced, breaking the silence of the town. He shot a glare to his subordinate who pass Buggy a loudspeaker that can broadcast through the entire town. Standing exactly in the middle of the town, speaker in his hand as he announced loudly "Man, you all are one butt-load of sunshine, LET ME TELL YOU. IF NONE OF THE TRAVELERS FROM THAT SHIP COME OUT. I AM GONNA FREAKIN' BLAST YOU ALL."
Buggy pirates drew their weapons. The town people from there windows kept looking in utter fear. The sun beat down. They were going to do it; Buggy pirates simply going to use their cannons in this town. Buggy looking through the streets, barely hiding the smirk that flashed across his face.
As Akuma got his next plate it was slightly off not because it tasted slightly different but the fact the chef was hesitant when handing the food over to Akuma, not because of the sheer appearance of him but the fact the Buggy Pirates came out in hordes outside. This in turn flooded the restaurant with the citizens for shelter.
Akuma paused his eating looked carefully at the citizens coming inside, they weren't here for the food but they was running away from something which made him frown in annoyance.
This if anything provoked Akuma who hated abuse of the weak as he didn't like the fact and wondered who was responsible as he wanted to kick their asses and free the corruption of this state. "Someone is begging to get their asses kicked" as Akuma stood up as he then overheard the one who was responsible over the loudspeaker.
Link headed hearing a ruckus as citizens fled in terror as making wonder seeing how peaceful the town was one second and the other there was terror and fear in the eyes of the citizens. "What's going on here?" shocking Link as one of the few devils popping up giggling maybe they are getting ready for One Piece Spoilers as Link continued to ignore it.
"!!!" catching the attention of Link frustrating him knowing that was the ship that he arrived in possibly as he walked into town wanting to come face to face so his crew members dont get harmed.
As the other devil popped up whispering how long Link gonna stay strong and spear headed as he would need him to give into his temptation of stopping those that hurt those who are close to him. Link then thought "Maybe its not a bad idea as i need sort this out ... okay then i'll give in if the time comes".
Link then shouts "Oi, I DIDN'T COME HERE FOR A FIGHT! ..." pointing his hand at the distant Buggy as another walked out of a door "WHICH ONE OF YOU IS HARMING THESE PEOPLE" a frustrated large manwhom Link squinted and noticed it's him though both spotted the one with the Loudspeaker.
Buggy's face was as red as the side of a firebarn. "Ah, aaaaahhhhh, don't talk to me with your round, ignorant eyes!? Don't you butt heads listen to what I just said?!?!" Buggy said, throwing all the annoyance he could into his voice, his face still quivering with rage. His eyes watered and veins popped out on his neck. All the buggy pirates standing there looked at him, annoyance crossing his face.
"Fine" Buggy muttered. The wind kicked up the tails of his coat, which licked the air like a red flame. He then a thin smile. "Do you shitheads really think I'm the kind of guy who'd quit so easily, huh?"
Mohiji and Cabaji stepped forward, choosing their words carefully. "Let's show them, who are they messing with, captain"
Behind Buggy pirate a giant fierce lion standing and ready to tear anyone or anything apart who comes in his way. The civilians are all locked in their homes afraid of death by a giant lion.
Buggy looked at the young man standing before him. His blond hair that he let hang wild in the front, and piercing blue eyes. Wearing champion light blue tunic with his sword's attached to his sides with beige looking jean trousers and brown boots. While looking at him a smirked appeared in his face.
Buggy shouted at the mystery man. "You are currently inside a territory of mine. it seems you do not wish to do what I want you to. so DIE!!!."
As Buggy finished, suddenly a cannon-shot resounded; a ball whistled above his head and carried off a part of his galley's stem. The cannon crew had just fired a buggy ball from the rooftop. At the moment the shot Buggy just smiled thinking blond hair guy is done for.
Buggy Ball: These red cannonballs, engraved with Buggy's Jolly Roger, can create devastating explosions when fired from a cannon. Buggy claimed that with these cannonballs, combined with his Devil Fruit powers, the Bara Bara no Mi, he and his crew can conquer the Grand Line.
Requirements: Buggy ball 30, Str 28, B rank if hit directly, C if caught in the surrounding explosion ( I completely made these requirements. up and they are "technically" not approved)
Links reaction to Buggy was him saying outload "Who the fuck are you red-nose? and you guys are a bunch of pathetic clowns". As Akuma twitched when hearing all of the rambling "Your territory boy? ... Have you ever tasted fear you little clown imposter? ... After all i don't have the patient to teach little brats like you how to breathe!" he roared.
As Link and Akuma stared at one another they nodded knowing they had to take out the Buggy Pirates from threatening to attack and kill Link's underlings for Link and for Akuma for abusing the innocent in abusing their power.
Link charged forward and shouted as he jumped into the air with frightening speed as he roared "This place is now under new territory you red-nosed freak!". Link had his hands placed on his swords on his waist with his left hand on his right sword handle and left hand on his right sword handle as if forming an x with his arms in front as he closed his eyes coating haki into his arms then into his swords as he shouted. "Dual Crescent Moon Slash" as he withdraws his sword in a reverse x manor releasing two coated slashes. The slash was enough to take out the Buggy Pirate Soldiers leaving only Buggy, Cabaji, Mohji and Ritchie. It was also enough to over power the Buggy Ball.
Dual Crescent Moon Slash: A Stronger variation on "Crescent Moon Slash" as this time Link will be holding two swords adjacent to his sides as two crescent slashes.

Akuma saw Link charge forward and didn't wanna be left behind as he looked back and apologised for causing trouble, "Sorry for causing you guys grief" as he grinned as he charged forward too coated his fists in hardening them as he roared "Barrage of Strikes!!". As if he compresses his arms pulling them in closing his eyes as he then lets loose with rapid precise punches. These punches were enough to take out the Buggy Pirate Soldiers leaving only Buggy, Cabaji, Mohji and Ritchie.
Barrage of Strikes: Simply a technique that is a barrage of rapid yet precise powerful punches. A technique whereby Akuma throws extremely fast but yet precise barrage of powerful punches to pulverise an opponent or destroy objects.

As Akuma lands slamming simultaneouslyas Link lands thoughAkuma says “You know you truly live in an unfair world when you're punished for crimes you didn't even commit." referencing to the town folks. Link smiles hearing this asking the man "Are you Akuma the man that once was feared as ASHURA?!" which Akuma replies with a smile. "I haven't been called that in almost a decade" as he grins staring at Link. "Let me guess Link of Hyrule .. hey?" to which Link replies laughs and says "Yes that i am and i want you to join me in getting rid of these idiots and that red nose and join me partner under the Silver Hair banner" as Link offers his hand after unsheathing his sword.
All the while ignoring the rest of the Buggy Pirates as Akuma replies to the offer "Let's get rid of them i dont wanna see them abusing another citizen" as he turns his gaze to Buggy. "Red-Nose your next!" he roars furiously channeling as he emits his intent to kill whilst cracking his knuckles walking over to Buggyas Link smiles nodding his head in relief as he pierced his eyes at the remaining Buggy Pirates.
"I'll take out these 3 the red nose is yours old friend" Link would say to Akuma.
Buggy closed his fists softly and looked at them, now frowning. Those two defeated their members like they were nothing, the moment those pirates fall, Buggy was looking at them with those cold, clear, full of hate eyes and it wasn't just that what Buggy felt, it was the moment he knew that he could not defeat those two. Those two simply forced him, the way a strong man can force a weaker man's. There was no reason, you see, he wasn't planning to go down easy. From his perspective, that sure was one frustrating sight to see, but there was no helping it.
The pained screams of the buggy pirates rose up from here and there. But buggy wasn't planning to go down easy as he takes a deep breath and shouts, "FIRE!!!" Along with that short but manly shout, all the accumulated firepower collected in buggy cannon-shot and resounded as the cannon directly went in the direction of those two men.
That sounded suitably important, and Buggy's chest swelled. Then he glared around at the rest of his crew, "What are you staring at? Move your asses, goddammit!"
It buggy who didn't understand it. The way it turned out, those two understood a lot more than he did more than any of his crew members. Cabaji capable of attacking at firing out pre-emptive strikes at a moment's notice. Taut tension-filled up the atmosphere. And then… Cabaji gazes at those two, glaring at them.
"BURN TO HELL YOU IDIOTS!" he screamed as fire come out his mouth aimed at those tow strangers, it was more like surprising attack too catch those two off guard.
Kyokugi! Kaji Oyaji (曲技! 火事おやじ Kyokugi! Kaji Oyaji?, literally meaning "Acrobatics! Old Man's Flame"): Cabaji breathes fire on his opponent, more of a way of surprising the enemy and opening them up for attacks.
acrobatism 30, strength 29, reaction 29 C rank (Not approved)
Mohji wasn't either planning to back down from the fight either as he yelled, "RICHIE! Let's teat them apart!"
The lion stared at the those two and let out a roar. It was nothing like human speech or bird song, but more of a raw sound that started deep within his body and was projected into the air with so much force that it would be heard for miles around. He was calling. In return came the calls of his pride. With that Richie start running towards the strangers to crush them.
People from their houses looked at the scene with terrified eyes as if their expression was wishing for all this to end.
As Akuma darted to Buggy as he was able to react to Buggy's cannon fire of his Buggy Ballso was Link as the two could see it in slow motion as the two darted one at Buggy and the other Cabaji.
If your reaction speed is two or more brackets above your oppponent's movement/attack speed, you will basically see them in slow motion.

Link's Reaction Speed: 81
Akuma darted right in front of Buggy coating his entire arm as he stood right in front of Buggy with intent to kill as he cupped his hands together focusing his wrath of the innocent's being pushed as he hardened his arms going into his palms. The way how he coated and hardened his palms was as if Haki went through his bloodstream into his palms. He then concentrated his wrath to a single point of his palms as they was cupped as then thrusts it outwards channeling his wrath slamming his palms into Buggy's direction as he screamed "Gohaduken". He finishes with "Orange Town will be safe when your put down" as he gave off a look of pity as he turned around to stare at what was going with Link.
Gohaduken ("Great Surge Fist"):
This is executed when Akuma has formed cupped hands to his side, as the user focuses their energy into and through the palms concentrating it into a single point (between their cupped hands). The palms/hand are then thrusted outwards towards the target channeling their force through their palms into the opponent with devastating force. Gives +mastery/5 in Strength with a 1 turn cool down.

As that was going on Link unsheathed both swords seeing Cabaji arrive to him and a stationed lion wearing wig dude and a lion. Link's first reaction was to dart right in between the three and use a slash that would target them all, "I have to go there that way i attack them all at once" he thought as he darted. (See Above Spoiler in regards to Stat Differences)
As Link stood right in-between he quickly adjusted himself in a stance as one arm which was over his shoulder with the edge of the sword in the direction behind Cabaji as the other placed in front of him in Mohji's direction. He then calmed himself as he coated his arm that in return turned his swords black as breathed slowly opening his eyes mumbling "Whirling Blade" sending a slash in 360 fashion around him aiming it at Cabaji, Mohji and Ritchie.
Spin Attack / Whirling Blade:
To perform it, Link usually gets in a stance to power up his Sword and then spins around once in a circle, damaging all enemies within the sword's radius. It can be charged longer for more power and range at the cost of more Stamina.
>If using 2 swords for this: (71 Mastery and 71 Strength) - DPR: A
The devastating force of the attack connected to Buggy. The impact of the attack was too great that he was not even able to let out any scream as his body starts to give up on him, the pain went coursing through his body. He'd felt agony, but it was even worse. It hurt too much to struggle, that he instantly wanted to die. The pain that once burned like a fire had faded away to an icy numbness. Black filled the edges of his vision and the only thing he could hear was his own heartbeat. His breath came in ragged, shallow gasps. Seconds passed as he lay there. Realization dawned on him, he was going to die. He tried to move his chest, tried to suck in air, but none came. His heart stopped. His mind gave one final sigh. Then he felt nothing. Nothing at all. Darkness threatened to take him again. He let it, but the pain went with him.
Cabaji, Mohji and Ritchie thought the process wasn't enough to comprehend either the movement or the action of there enemy. The pain from the spin attack of two swords that they received caught them badly, all that was left the blood that had come out of there body. Perhaps for anyone else in the team, the bleeding would not have been deadly, yet there was nothing left in these three. The blood flowed like a lazy river and the life left there body.
They were finally free from the recklessness and heartlessness for this world.
After Link performed his slash cutting Buggy Pirates members down the little demon came back up the darkened Link looking one asking If Link wants to give into his rage which Link talks to him through his thought though by giving one answer, "No i dont need to". Link breathes looking around seeing a few members as Link reaches to his back pocket and takes out a gold coin showing it to them before tossing it in front of them. This was something Link wanted to try out if it works as he speaks "Whoever doesn't wanna die grab that coin the rest well you know" Link shrugs his shoulder smirking.
But before any could even pick it up or think he raises his right hand and mimics a pointing with his index finger to Akuma as he says "Now lets end them all now." Akuma nods in reply knowing if was to truly save this place he had to get rid of the main trouble then all those who followed.
Akuma walks ahead of Link looks at his hand then performs a fist coating his hand again in Haki hardening it, just as he does Link walks side by side with him and also emits haki into his sword as they take a quick glance and nod. As Akuma then opens his fist and asks Link to "Step back as this may hurt your ears" as Link grins telling him to also "Step back as this may cut you" trying to provoke one another to step back. Though Akuma looks at the underlings remaining who'm he knew wouldn't be able to stop this either way but he wanted peace quick.
"THUNDERCLAP!" Akuma screamed as he extended his arms out wide and then brought them forward as if a huge slap/clap.

This caused the earth below to quake and ripples as Haki clashed in one place as if a sonic scream outbursted as if dropping a rock into a calm lake it rippled hugely throughout the street. Though this came at a price as it made Akuma really tired though as he became tired he dropped to one knee asLink ran up and jumped off his back to perform his attack to clean up.
Link jumps up into the air then on his way back down coats his haki through his sword as he sends two projectile slashes downwards "Otoro". As he says it he knows its job done as he carefully sheaths his swords as he is somewhat tired of using Haki to this extent as his stomach rumbles as he smiles and laughs nervously.

Akuma then roars knowing the job is done and calls the town folks to come out, "EVERY CITIZEN OF ORANGE TOWN PLEASE COME OUT NOW! .... THE PIRATES HAVE BEEN APPREHENDED!" he shouted as townfolks who hesitantly checked to see if it was true but slowly came out in the drones knowing it was true.
Link then came forward "I hereby place this place under the control of the Silver Hair Pirates and under our protection" as the citizens were puzzled staring at one another, glances here and there as an elder raised their voice. The elder came forward and said yes however how will he gaurantee that to which Link replied "You seen me wipe the floor with these people who disrespected your lifes and values right? ... You are seeing them they are of no more concern." as Link began giving a speech.
Akuma listening offered his two cents, "He is right, if it wasn't for that man you would have been attacked so would your women and children" as Akuma gave a thumbs up to Link.
This was more than enough to warrant the Elder to agree as Link approached the elder to shake hands on the deal and "As its under our control i will also allocate a member of the Silver Hair Pirates who will arrive her to protect you all" which was met with cheers. Link then returned the thumbs up back at Akuma.
Link then turned to Akuma, "So how about it wanna join me partner, on an adventure of mystery and the unknown? ... and finally we can gather the gang back up?". Akuma hearing this was shocked as his eyes looked larger and then he closed his eyes slanting his head back "Of course lets go"
As the citizens prepared to offer in exchange for having them save the place all Link wanted was something to eat then he would be on his way, though just to make sure he took out the Den Den to contact a crew member at HQ's to ask for a member to arrive as its under their jurisdiction.
After the meal and small leaving party Link bowed down as he headed for the docks as he raised his right arm looking at the ship "Set sail soon boys we are headed out!" as Akuma who was trailing turned back around and got to his knees and bowed down "I am thankful for the meal and again i apologise for the damage caused."
The citizens cheered and slowly died down as the elder approached Akuma and hugged him saying all is forgiven.
"Release those hostages! If you comply we can come to a peaceful resolution; you'll get a lighter sentence for your Tyranny and the people will continue to walk freely in the streets," Demanded Captain Shu! His pose exceptionally ferocious as he stood poised for battle with his hands raised; and both palms open. He was caught in a difficult face-off with the Captain of the Big Helmet Pirates...
The Hostage squirmed and struggled, attempting to escape. "Quit it! Else I'll make calamari outta ya," Demanded the captain, violently re-positioning the hostage whilst holding a saber to their neck; maliciously he inched it closer and closer, the threat growing ever more vigilant as the Hostage whimpered against the Cold Steel of his blade.
"I ain't letting go of nobody! You marines think you can hold me up after I already struck a good deal with the Mayor? Why don't you withdraw your men and Hightail it outta here, I ain't got time for your justice blabber."
Captain Shu angrily glared at the Pirate, the situation had escalated way out of proportion for many of the marines stationed here were upheld. The threat of losing Civilian lives have forced them to a stalemate, the tranquil beat of the waves and the caw of the seagulls filled the void of silence which struck between them. Both Marine and Pirate menacingly facing off in the Ruins of Orange Town.
Waves crashed and seabirds cried out as a the rookie marine hero: Polo Marco paddled through the ocean, his vibrant head of pink hair flowing around him as he began preparing to stand on land for the first time in more than a day. Despite his big smile, his eyes carried a seriousness to them. Polo was eager for his first real assignment, until this point he had only faced training exercises and small group missions; now he was being sent alone to offer his assistance to Marine Captain Shu. The tall fishman breathed in deeply through his gills one last time before launching himself up and out of the sea.
Perfect globules of seawater emerged alongside the upcoming hero as he breached the water's surface. Polo's large body hung in the air for a moment, a level of grace emanating off the happy character; Polo Marco excitedly out-stretched his limbs briefly before descending from his jump. "YA-HOO!"
The hefty, navy-blue boots crunched into the sand below as Polo Marco's feet met with the ground. Despite the damaged town before him, excitement and happiness overpowered any sadness he felt; he was here to help now. The fishman began setting one foot ahead the other, taking long strides across the beach/wrecked dock.
Quickly, the fishman's hair poofed up back into its usual windswept shape as he engaged in a light investigation of the surroundings. He walked around, glancing at different standing (or partially standing) structures that caught his interest. At this point Polo was just searching for a sign of residents or Captain Shu.
"Hellooooooo~?" He asked, hands cupped to his mouth. "Anyone here?"
Still unaware of the dangerous situation happening nearer to the town's center, the marine ensign seemed lost but knew he was in the right place.
"Captain Shu?" He asked aloud, carefully hopping over a fallen piece of timber lying across the roadway.
"What's That?" Swiftly inquired the Big Helmet Goober-Man. The loud echoes of an odd voice reverberated through the town though the grave distance diminished the quality of the sound, though through the faintness of his shout the Captain could hear it. Captain Shu's Eyes widened, the intensity of their stand-off had just been completely shattered. "The New Recruit-," He echoed through the confines of his mind. "I've had enough of this stand still, I'll take him whilst he's distracted."
Captain Shu made his move, He dashed at the bewildered Mikazuki!
Shu's Eyes widened once again, the voice's echo increased in Volume... He paused; Mikazuki stood temporarily distracted by the new voice, his saber lowered from the neck of his hostage and he left himself wide open. Shu came, swiftly capitalizing on the situation; he struck the Captain in his time of bewilderment...
"So You brought Back-"
WHAM!!
Carefully aiming his fist, he clutched it whilst he initially dashed. Though pausing at the second Echo he continued his aggress; He punched the Big Helmet Goober right in the face, he forced him off the hostage and escalated their confrontation... He landed and held the Hostage; quickly coaxing them ensuring that they're not too shaken by the situation. "T-Thank you Sir..." Said the young man.
"Don't mention it, Now get out of here." He replied. Captain Mikazuki, stumbled backwards; the left side of his face seared in pain from the impact. The corner of his mouth leaked bits of blood, Swiftly he caught himself. He fell to one knee and angrily glared at Shu, "You Bastard!" He exclaimed, wiping the dripping blood from his mouth. He lifted his saber, hoisting it towards the Marine Captain. He stood, and he Yelled to his main who were caught in similar situations... "KILL THEM ALL!"
Shu's face widened in shock, Mikazuki's voice echoed throughout the docks and leaked outwards to the ruined city. The Hostages squirmed and began thrashing trying to escape. The Marine soldiers who'd been tasked with facing them began taking initiative as well; "That Bastard Can't be serious..." uttered one, "No time to waste!" uttered another, it had turn into a swift scuffle. The Big Helm Pirates each raised their weapons, upon command of their captain; the hostages they held in captive they prepared to end their lives!
"CAPTAIN MIKAZUKI!" Yelled Shu, he drew the attention of nearby pirates and soldiers and even the Captain himself laid eyes upon the Angered Marine. Captain Shu refused to utter a next word, he was furious with the tyranny exhibited by the Pirate Captain and therefore refused to offer him any ounce of mercy.
The fishman bent down into an abandoned house's doorframe, his shadow being casted into the abandoned interior. Polo peered in at the scattered remains of what was once a home. "Anybo-" The fishman's investigation was interrupted promptly by violent shouts in the distance:
The marine pulled his head back out into the opening, a look of concern replacing his resting expression. He briefly looked around before hurrying towards his approximation of where the sound came from before pressing himself swiftly off the ground then stepping on the air, then again.
Polo Marco stepped higher and higher in attempt to get an idea of where he was supposed to be heading towards.
The hero would land on a standing building before stepping once more into the air to another rooftop, quickly closing in on the source of the shouting.
Polo's positioning shifted slightly to account for the new shout, he was close to whatever was happening now!
Polo Marco dashed through the air, a bead of sweat beginning to form on his forehead; he was already pushing himself in an effort to hurry his pace by utilizing geppo. There was no time to think about how much his legs would ache later, he simply knew that he needed to stop whatever was happening towards the center of town.
"Oh- Ohhh, No!" Exclaimed Boodle; he only viewed the fight from afar. The ruins of the town seared an awful sight into his inner spirit. He stood atop the road leading straight to the docks; without a doubt he could see all that's transpiring. He gripped the sides of his hair and dropped to his knees. He raised his face to the sky, frustrated he grit his teeth and tears welled up in his eyes. "My people... My people, No!" He slung forward, he balled his right hand into a fist and smacked the floor.
WHAM! WHAM!
"I can't believe I struck that deal. The situation, it swiftly escalated to a point in which I cannot go back... I am so foolish; so very foolish..." He said, slowly he broke down. His pride; his confidence in his own ability to protect his people... It had cracked and continued on to eventually crumble. Chouchou, the mighty mut, stoic and immovable; great guardian of Hocker's Pet Food Shop came to Boodle's side.
ARF!
He called to boodle, slowly it walked over to the Mayor; "What is it boy?" Questioned the Mayor, he didn't know what to do. These pirates were too strong for him to face on his own, and so that took a shot at him; he turned over, face filled with angry self-loathe. Chouchou stared back at Boodle, his cold and strong eyes met with the Mayor's. Chouchou sat and lifted his paw...
SLAP! "D-Did you just-" "ARF!" "I-" "ARF! ARF!"
-
The Docks swiftly turned into a pandemonium of carnage...
"You heard the Captain!" Shouted Herumetto! Mercilessly he rushed at a lone hostage, it was a woman; He grabbed her by her hair and dragged her out. He unsheathed his saber and lifted into the sky; the sun gleamed brightly behind his blade, shining gracefully along the malicious tip of the saber. "Sorry girlie, I don't need a good time right about now; Captain's orders afterall..." He said.
He clenched the saber and then... Brought it down!
CLANG! An extravagant stroke of luck befell the damsel in distress, Heck; even Herumetto was caught completely by surprise. He'd been, deflected? Not just that but his saber was cleanly struck from his hand. His open palm twitched as the realization slowly set in, his eyes widened dramatically and he looked off to his right. He began scanning the area; looking for the person who had performed such a grand showcase of heroism...
"LEAVE MY PEOPLE ALONE!" He shouted... It was Mayor Boodle!
His pride was not fully healed but he had enough to stand for what he viewed as right! His copper armor shackled and shun radiantly, though... He wasn't the one to swiftly disarm the pirate. Herumetto's eyes shot towards the source of the sound; it was directly ahead of him, at the apex of the Road to the Docks. "Tch-" He exclaimed in disgust. "You've gotta be kidding me, It can't be you."
The Woman Squirmed and shook herself in a feeble attempt to break free; She'd been bound by both hands and feet and her mouth was taped shut. "Tch- You wanna be saved so bad?" He rhetorically uttered in frustration, his anger boiled hot against both Boodle and the woman. He tugged on her hair, brutally he threw her to the side. Smacking her head against the bare concrete!
"COME ONE! Stupid old man, Filthy wench; You won't make it out of here alive!"
Polo came across the scene somewhat clumsily, the strain of dashing after so much time swimming took a lot out of him. He hit a nearby rooftop hard, sending loose wreckage from the apex where he stood. His frilly shadow loomed down on them, sun behind him as a finger pointed down at them. A new surge of energy overcame the young hero as he looked down at the heroic marines attempting to diffuse a dangerous situation with the criminals.
"Stop right there, evil-doers!" Polo exclaimed with a contagious excitement, bravery oozing from his every pore. "Justice has found you!"
This was so much more meaningful than training exercises, this meant something. A big smile stretched across his face as his finger slowly turned into a clenched fist that fell to his side before stepping from the ledge of the roof, falling in the same path as the rubble from before. Moments before hitting the ground, he kicked the air gently for a soft landing. The colorful character cracked his knuckles and stretched his back, excited for a fight against real bad guys.
He looked around at all the human faces, most of which stood far below him. The familiar attire of marines filled his view, he was amongst friends! "Don't worry!-" He reassured his comrades. "I'm here to help!"
He assessed the surroundings, looking to the old man and injured hostage. Wide, yellow eyes shooting up to the helmeted-pirate. "You're done bullying the people here!" He said, still smiling brightly. His words didn't feel as if they were threats, but merely a confident expectation. "I'm gonna fight you now if that's okay!"

The Voice of our star has shun upon the battle; though some marines, freed from their individual clashes with their respective pirates paid him a glance of hope, a blatant gratitude for his addition; others were tied and too focused on saving the Civilians. Captain Shu and Mikazuki have already begun their dance, and our Antagonist Herumetto has laid eyes on yet another target. The hostage was out cold, Mayor Boodle and Chou Chou have both made their ways onto the battle field; and Heru- was completely furious. He retrieved his saber, and his eyes laid upon the new marine adversary who had clumsily made his way to the confrontation. "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!" He angrily shouted.
-
The battle began to shift, the pirates were slowly losing; the Marines have employed a new stratagem allowing them to gain the upper hand on their tyrannous enemies; "Y'know, If it wasn't for me; you wouldn't even have the time to be yelling like an idiot?" Pompously uttered a lone marine soldier. Stationed far off in the perfect flanking position, he reloaded his musket; momentarily reeling back it's barrel. "If I hadn't shot that saber you wouldn't have been able to kill anyone, anyone at all." He continued.
This new stratagem was nothing more than the use of guns, or more accurately the support of guns. As the Marines took their battle stance against the pirates some snuck off to properly station themselves; for there were wide openings in almost all of the pirates though the pirates possessed similar virtues as they too used pistols and muskets though not as prominently as their melee weapons.
-
"Y'know what, Screw introductions." Herumetto dashed off to the side, laying his blade upon the first Marine he saw. He swung his saber; cleaving through the back of the unknowing and pre-occupied marine soldier. The man cried in pain and fell, his blood stained his clothes and Herumetto's blade. He reached down and looted the man's pockets, "There it is!" He pulled the man's pistol and took aim. "Let's dance Fish face!" He exclaimed, pulling the trigger!
