Naval Battle Island Eater

[Emperor Cross]

Nii grunted in pain, the weight and speed of the kick caused an explosion that sent it's head downwards from the force. This was the power of cooking! The young pirate had managed to damage the beast, yet it was still far from over. Now enraged more than ever, Nii raised it's head aiming to bite down on the lizard's body with all of his strength, intending to kill him with a single strike.

A smile formed on Geck'O 's face, the dumb sea beast couldn't even react to his attack. The hunter puffed his chest proudly, although he was still in the air, the lizard did not care. Last time he had faced foes, they ganged up on him and he had to run away. The old man called a strategic retreat, but Lardez found it cowardly. Now high up in the sky, his crew could see how strong he was. The Cap'N should see how strong and trustful the Iizard was. Who else could set a sea-beast ablaze ? Certainly not that dumb cow Mikami or the old fisherman. Geck'O was the only one, they should put respect on his name.

The red-scaled lizard began to spin on himself and fall toward the sea beast. He was clutching his jutte with all the strength. Catching it in a reverse grip, the tip pointing toward the ground. Taking enough speed he stooped spinning and readied himself for the incoming clash with the blue monster's jaws.

- "Aerosmith ! "

The user jumps and holds the staff in reverse grip with two hands, so that its tip is facing the ground, then thrust it down to the opponent's head, stunning them for 1 turn if the attack is super effective.
- DPR B, requires 51 Strength, 51 MA Mastery ==> 81-100: 3. Large Building Level "2 above so I don't think it's going to do any damage to Nii

The lizard was able to stop the sea monster's attack but when he tried to attack once again something stopped him. A strident sound made him clutch his ears and threw him in the sea, mouth full of blood. What the heck was happening ?

Narration
"Shouting"

"Get over here!"
Once the victim is stabbed, wrapped or caught the chain, he starts to pull:


2.) Same Strength tier
After a short tug o' war he lets go of the chain for a bit to unbalance the opponent, using that opportunity to rush in for an attack. (-mastery/20 react debuff for the enemy) He himself is experienced enough to be immune to these shenanigans. He had so many smartarses on that chain try to pull that, he knows when its coming and exploits it, creating the same scenario as 1.) If the opponent is stabbed/wrapped, and getting his chain back if he was just holding it.

This was a first for Bill. He had the Sea King stabbed on his harpoon, but he was unable to just reel it in. It must be about as strong as he was.
But no matter, he was experienced in wielding his chain. If the opponent didn't want to come to him, he had to just come to them.

Einsauer sent it's attack careening upwards, causing it to burst through the water's surface. To any onlookers, it would have seemed like a knock-up stream had appeared out of thin air.

"Arr, the Seas be a-ragin' today! A knock up stream to accompany the monsters of the depths! Aye jus' gotta be the one to knock ye back down again!"
He threw his entire weight into a slightly stronger pull on the chain, to elicit an opposed equal reaction from the sea king, planning to use that force to move in for a close range attack.

It made contact with the massive fish, resulting in an even bigger shockwave that detonated from the point of impact: it's face.

Another explosion of water broke the oceans surface, and Bill took it as the start signal for his counterattack.
He'd stop resisting the pull of the sea king and jump at it when it didn't expect it, the sharp nosed marlin head lance in his left hand ready to stab the beast.
At least that was the plan. Because all of a sudden a terrible noise broke out, stabbing his ears with guitar riffs reverberating across the waves.
"By Neptune's bald spot! Hells fanfare to guide the armies o' the deep! The end of days be approaching!"
His first instinct was to cover his ears, but it was too late. The yellow Sea Worm had countered his force with all its might, pulling Bill off his boat and towards his adversary. The sudden loud music had thrown off his timing, though, so he was more trundling than flying towards his goal. His head felt like it was splitting open from the loud noise, so he was hoping to end this quickly with a stab right to the forehead.

Then I´ll come kill ya"
(21 Spear Fishing, 21 Strength, 21 Movement Speed) DPR C
He rushes at the opponent to stab them, Pulling on the chain and dragging it behind him as he goes along. If he misses or is blocked, the chain he was dragging will continue towards the opponent for another chance to wrap them up.

Island Eater #5
@Einsauer @Lamby @Emperor Cross @Magimasterkarp

The Sweet Pirates flexed their strength, proving that they were worthy of braving these seas. Gerald, who had engaged Ichi, destroyed the beast with a single strike of his scepter and used it's corpse to aid him in returning to his ship. Meanwhile on the Cotton Blossom, Geck'O had engaged Nii, delivering a burning kick to the beast's head, sending it reeling. Enraged, the Sea King would attack back, but not before the Reptilla prepared a counter attack of his own, overpowering it and stopping it completely in it's tracks!

Not too far away, Bill had hooked onto San with his harpoon, pulling himself towards the beast to deliver a killing blow. All the while, their captain swam beneath the surface, relishing in the fact that she had managed to stun the largest beast in the Grand Line. The Island Eater.

Everything had been going smoothly so far for the up and coming pirate crew, however something unexpected would take place, shocking everyone to their core. The sudden appearance of a mysterious fishman! He skillfully playing his guitar and sung with his heart's content. Drawn by the ruckus, his killer tune hammered down on the remaining Sea Kings and the Sweet Pirates. The fast tempo and jarring guitar tones would vibrate the Sea King's body, causing Nii spit up blood, leaving him open to any attacks if Geck'O chose to do so.

Unfortunately for San, he would suffer the same fate, as the sound waves vibrated his body and shook his organs, causing him to spit up blood! This stunned him long enough for Bill to land a clean shot with his harpoon, penetrating the Sea King's hide, yet still dealing less damage than the surfer's tune.

While Einsauer floated distracted, the Island Eater would awaken, more enraged than ever before. It had been humiliated on this day, robbed of it's meals and heavily damaged twice. Hearing the catchy tune, but choosing to ignore it, it used the opportunity presented to swim downwards, deeper into the sea, as it prepared to unleash a next attack from down below...

While Einsauer floated distracted, the Island Eater would awaken, more enraged than ever before. It had been humiliated on this day, robbed of it's meals and heavily damaged twice. Hearing the catchy tune, but choosing to ignore it, it used the opportunity presented to swim downwards, deeper into the sea, as it prepared to unleash a next attack from down below...

The distracted sea captain was totally unaware of the sea creature's departure, the rocking waves and the ear-shattering guitar overhead drowning out its descent. Einsauer inevitably turned to find the colossal creature gone, only a foggy trail of blood leading downward. She grimaced and inhaled water deeply as she prepared to intercept whatever this giant fish was planning. In spite of her instinct to pursue the Island Eater and finish it off, but whatever was happening with this music-playing newcomer was concerning her still; thus electing to remain in position.

She had to trust in her crew to deal with whatever was happening on the sea's surface until she finished off this sea titan. She hurled down a taunt at the looming Island Eater: "BRING IT ON ALREADY, YOU MINNOW!" Her outheld arms darkening and shimmering with armament haki as she awaited the beast. Her eyes scanned with anticipation of the sea monster's movements, she was confident she could kill the monster but she wasn't one to let her guard down.

The surfer continued riding waves around the boats and sea monsters for a bit before realizing the negative effects his gnarly playing was having. His strumming stalled on a sour note and with it, his small localized wave disappeared as well. He looked around while standing atop his board, his face dropped into a goofy, nervous smile. "Chaaa-" He anxiously chuckled, revealing perfect, pearly-white teeth. "-my bad." His apology was a bit lacking, but his shuffling demeanor displayed his embarrassment to Bill, the Sweet Pirates, and stunned sea kings.

The fishman ran his fingers through his pompadour as he began to speak again: "Didn't mean to snake waves, bros~"
"The name's Johnny." He said, casually introducing himself amidst the naval battle, as if he were completely unaware to what was happening.

[Magimasterkarp]

The world was tearing apart in a painful cacophony, Bill's ears ringing in tune with the overly loud music. He flew through the air, tumbling in an inner ear upsetting manner, pulled by the strength of the Sea King. Reaching the beast, he sunk his weapon into his target, a piercing headache, a throbbing heartbeat gushing blood, only a flesh wound. Bill had landed on the face of the sea king, a giant rictus of the same agony the soundwaves had caused him.
Sensing that his opponent was still alive, he steadied himself using the chain attached to the harpoon he first hit the Sea King with, and pulled his second weapon, a lance made from a taxidermied spear fish head, out of the bloody gash it left in the yellow flesh. He grinned darkly, the brouhaha silencing itself in the background:
"Yer a big worm alright, but yer still no prize fish. A true King o' the Seas", he hefted the Marlins Head, a relic from the toughest opponent he ever fought, "would never be so weak!" And he drove his point home, aiming directly between San's eyes.
"Sink back to the sea floor and die, spawn of Davy Jones. And ye, why are ye playin' the music of the Devil? Do ye want to lay the ocean's curse on all of us?" He suddenly shouted over his shoulder at the newcomer.

Gerald's attention was swayed from the events that were on the ship to the sudden introduction of the Young Fishman with exquisite taste. "The Music stopped; and on a sour note too. So his name is Johnny? The Raging Seas and the Rough winds made a bit difficult to hear what exactly you're saying; though I made out a bit of it through pure coincidence. I really like your music but the way it struck me really shook my interpretation of you my friend." He thought, staring right at the Fishman whilst standing at ease aboard the deck of the Cotton Blossom.

"Is everything alright on the ship?!" He asked, raising his voice immensely to draw the attention of the swabbies. He initially acted to protect the ship from the sea beast but many others followed to do the same. He had managed to strike down his adversary and succeed in protecting the ship but what about the others? Who else aboard the Cotton Blossom needed help; was there any more to do? Gerald was eager to help his crewmates and earn their trust.

He walked along the Deck, moderately making his way along the ship moving away from one side to another. He clenched his fist to try and divert his excess energy and thrill from engaging a sea beast right above the waters; It was amazing and so Gerald thirsted for more!

OOC : You are a criminal @Infinity last time I posted here was one month ago

# The hunter fell into the water clutching his ears. One of the beasts attacked him. They were a bunch of cowards. His eardrum was bleeding. He had to push through the pain, overcome it, and swim to the surface. Although he closely resembled a lizard, he couldn’t breathe underwater. His surprise caused him to fall for several meters, but the pirate did not have any doubt : It wouldn't take long for him to return to the surface and continue his pursuit. Once again, he could not have predicted the turbulence caused by the sea monster when it decided to return to the abyss. A creature of this size and speed was terrifying. Geck'O found himself pushed several meters by the waves. He was far from the ship when he emerged after a struggle that lasted for years . The lizard looked at his hand for a few seconds; This time he did not let go of his weapon. All he had to do now was swim to the captain. #

Island Eater #6
@Einsauer

"BRING IT ON ALREADY, YOU MINNOW!"

Enraged. Damaged. Hungry. The Island swam deeper into the depths of the sea. It had enough of this game, and was ready to end it all. Once deep enough, it began to inhale an even larger quantity of water than before. Any sea dwelling creature who had the misfortune of swiming close would be pulled instantly, a gravitational pull similar to that of a black hole!

After some time, the island eater would stop, it's body now increased in size with it's stomach filled with water. Then it released all of it at once, firing an even more powerful pressurized cannon of water laced with it's Busoshoko Haki! It would fly off in the direction of Sweet Einsauer, with the intentions of sending her atoms to oblivion!

Stunned by the mysterious soundwave attack, Bill was given the perfect opening for attack! After being blown away by the music himself, the fisherman landed on the face of the Sea King. Steadying himself using the chain of his harpoon, he pulled his second weapon from the body of the beast. With a sinister smile, Bill plunged his lance directly between San's eyes!

Nii was damaged, but not out of the game just yet! The beast shook his head, it's eye's leaking blood as it scan the water for it's prey. Geck'O was sent flying into the waters below, and Nii had him in his sights. The beast advanced towards Geck'O at supersonic speeds. With it's jaws open, it intended to swallow the Reptilla whole!
​

 

[Einsauer]

Sweet awaited the island-sized fish's charge, but after a brief moment floating in the cold ocean waters she felt a familiar pull. The pirate captain smirked, she knew this trick:

Once deep enough, it began to inhale an even larger quantity of water than before. Any sea dwelling creature who had the misfortune of swiming close would be pulled instantly, a gravitational pull similar to that of a black hole!

As the water pulled inward she took the advantage and moved with the rushing water, as she swam vigorously she removed from her pocket a small steroid capsule. She brought the pill to her mouth and swallowed, her veins immediately bulged with the influx of blood pressure. Her predatory eyes widened with a crazed fervor.

The first steroid provides +5 Strength, +5 Movement Speed for three turns.

Suddenly, her body (already accelerating at ridiculous levels) transcended into lightspeed as she instantaneously closed the gap with the fish, pulling out of the way of his blast at the last possible moment. She felt the deadly current sweep by her by a mere arm's length. The watery beam was loud, like a continuous, underwater explosion going off next to her; but with the unhealthy amount of adrenaline rushing through her she couldn't even process the ringing in her ears yet. The fishwoman cackled amongst the chaos.

Her smile widened and her eye twitched uncontrollably as she shot upwards a bit and then directly downwards at the Island Eater, with her sword nose honed in on the skull of the enormous fish with the intent of piercing directly through the head and emerging from the bottom of it's jaw, as an arrow would. The very tip of her nose glistened with armament haki being centered into a fine point.

"Sink back to the sea floor and die, spawn of Davy Jones. And ye, why are ye playin' the music of the Devil? Do ye want to lay the ocean's curse on all of us?" He suddenly shouted over his shoulder at the newcomer.

Johnny seemed taken aback. "Ocean's curse?" He asked incredulously. "Negatory Old-Timer, with every gnarly riff I shred-- the waves take me further along in my journey over the beautiful sea. ChaaaaA~" He said with an odd hand-sign thrown in at the end. He looked up at the large white flag flapping in the wind and rocking with the pirate vessel. The surfer lowered his sunglasses and took in the jolly roger of The Sweet Pirates.

"No way-- Are y'all pirates?" He asked excitedly. "Are you the pirate captain, gold bro?" He asked up casually to the man clad in golden armor.
@Lamby

Suddenly the surfer froze, he could sense the sudden strong current being sucked in from below. "Uhhh--" Not long afterwards, the powerful stream shot up into the air, nearly throwing the ship upside-down.
Johnny fell from his board and resurfaced with a shocked expression as a second enormous geyser erupted from the waves.

 

[Lamby]

"No way-- Are y'all pirates?" He asked excitedly. "Are you the pirate captain, gold bro?" He asked up casually to the man clad in golden armor.

Gerald's attention Veered once again as he looked over the Ship's rail and out to the sea, The Fishman called out to him... "Me? The Captain?!" He asked rhetorically, He cackled loudly; drawing in the attention of the man that had asked such of him...

HA! HA! HA! HA!

"I am not the Captain, I am one of the valued members of the crew! I joined recently and so I am still unfamiliar with names... HOWEVER! A Distinctive face stuck out to me; another fishman lead the crew and was responsible for designing our Jolly Roger in her own honor!" Gerald pointed out to the open Ocean; He noticed that there was a very prominent swirl in the waters and so he pointed right at the eye...

"Our Captain is none other than, Sweet Einsauer! She personally recruited me after our fated meeting on a Merchant Isle; I joined hoping to make a grand name for myself and so far this is already too interesting! I am loving my time on this crew: HA! HA!" He exclaimed ecstatically, his arm jutted out at the Waters far off in the distance; his focus streamed away from the Pandemonium both Sea Beasts work causing.

"Speaking of..." Gerald ran to the front of the Ship; He stared out and locked his gaze onto the Sea Beast Nii, his old friend Bill was having a bit "fun" with his catch. "HA!HA! That Old man is as strange as he's interesting!" He exclaimed.

"BILL! DO YOU NEED A HAND??" He loudly asked.

# Geck'O was done, he was only mere meters away from the ship when the Monster tried again to eat him. He was tired of the blue beast. The hunter pondered on his next action. He could swim to the Cotton Blossom but feared the sea monster would make a dent. One thing for sure, two for certain, Geck'O did not want to be at the receiving end of Sweet's anger. He had only one thing left to do, it was to fight. And the hunter had the best idea possible. Still gripping his jutte, the Lizard changed it for a reverse style. He swam fast toward Nii and the when the beast opened its mouth wide, the pirate swung the jutte hard targeting the inside of the monster's cheek. However instead of retracting his hands, Geck'O left the jutte in the monster mouth, trying to prevent it from closing anymore. #

[Magimasterkarp]

The Marlinspike sunk into the face of the sea king with a satisfying sssnnnniikkttt, making it painfully obvious who the true King of the Sea between San and the taxidermied Spearfish was.
And yet, the beast wasn't dead. With the wound gushing blood, the massive head swung around in painful thoes to shake Bill off. The fisherman held tight to the handle of his weapon to not fall into the ocean.
(Profession: 1 Star Bartender)

"Ya think ya can shake me off? I know that game, squid. I worked inna bar with a mechanical bull fer six months, yer not gettin' rid of me that easily! Yeehaw!"
With his free hand he took off his anglers hat and waved it around as if it were a stetson, his white hair stuck to his head, wet from ocean spray and sea king blood.

"Negatory Old-Timer, with every gnarly riff I shred-- the waves take me further along in my journey over the beautiful sea. ChaaaaA~" He said with an odd hand-sign thrown in at the end.

"Haha, that's okay, then. As long as ye make a sign to ward off evil spirits." He tried replicating the sign with his hat crumpled in his hand, "Say, if ye keep the volume down a bit, can ya give me a nice rodeo song? 'S more fun with music! Whoa!"
He'd nearly slipped on the blood pooling on his "bull", so he steadied himself by wrapping the chain connected to the first harpoon he'd thrown at the sea king around his free arm.
"Behave yerself, ya small fry! Else I'll have ta get rough with ye!"
A sharp tug ripped the harpoon out of the yellow flesh, coated in blood with strands of muscle and skin stuck caught behind the brutal barb.

"BILL! DO YOU NEED A HAND??"

"Gerald? What are ye doin' with these demon summoning pirates?" So he was a ghost after all, he thought, "Good to see ya! Wanna have a go as well?"

Suddenly the surfer froze, he could sense the sudden strong current being sucked in from below. "Uhhh--" Not long afterwards, the powerful stream shot up into the air, nearly throwing the ship upside-down.
Johnny fell from his board and resurfaced with a shocked expression as a second enormous geyser erupted from the waves.

All of a sudden, the ocean's surface once again erupted into a massive geyser, reminiscent of a knock up stream, extremely close this time. Momentarily speechless, Bill forgot to work against the movements of the sea king for a second, so like a sliding beer glass from the end of a bar, he fell off.

"Neptuns Nutsack!!" Of course he wouldn't stay speechless for more than a second, so he was cursing on his way towards the water until he managed to stop his fall with his chain, all his weight still not dislodging the Marlinspike between San's eyes.
He was at the end of his rope chain, his harpoon in his hand again and the body of the spearfish, which was threaded on the chain like a bead on a string, came travelling down towards him.
Hanging in the air below the sea kings head, he yelled out defiantly:
"Let's finish this, ya overgrown lure worm, before that demon of the deep returns!"

Island Eater #7
@Einsauer @Emperor Cross @Magimasterkarp @Lamby

The Island Eater fired a powerful pressurized jet cannon of water with enough force to flatten a large country! It would shoot off in the direction of Captain Sweet Einsauer, however the Fishwoman would be prepared. Taking advantage of the pulling current created by the Island Eater's suction, she swam forward at blinding speeds and with the swallow a pill, accelerating even further, achieving lightspeed. She pulled out of the way of the beam at the last second, before swimming upwards slightly. Descending once again, in an instant, her busoshoku coated sword nose honed in on the skull of the massive fish with the intent of piercing directly through the head. And that it would do, like an arrow, she emerged from the bottom of it's jaw, completely coating in the beast's blood. The Island Eater's eyes widened in surprise, unable to process what had happened, blood leaking into the sea from it's skull and maw. It had never imagined things would turn out like this. It's prey proved to be too strong, the king of the sea was now dethroned. Soon, those very eyes would turn a cloudy grey as it's lifeless body slowly floated to the surface of the ocean.

Meanwhile on the surface, Nii advanced towards the water bound sweet pirate, intending to swallow the Reptilla whole! However, Geck'O would be prepared, swinging his jutte hard targeting the inside of the monster's cheek. Instead of withdrawing his hands, Geck'O left the jutte in the monster's mouth, preventing it from closing down on his small frame and surprising the beast.

San shook his head from side to side, trying with all of his might to shake off the annoying fisherman. Blood gushed from it's head wound with each swipe, until the harpoon would rip from his flesh leaving only the Marlinspike wedged into it's flesh. Suddenly it would happen, the Island Eater's attack burst from the surface of the sea, scaring both Sea Kings and nearly capsizing the Cotton Blossom.

"Let's finish this, ya overgrown lure worm, before that demon of the deep returns!"

Nii, horrified, spat Geck'O's jutte into the sea, before swimming off quickly. San, seeing his comrade flee, would perform one final swing of his head dislodging the lance from his flesh, sending the old man crashing into the waters below before swimming away himself, blood trailing as he went. The duo was extremely hungry, however these prey proved to be too tenacious. In their weakened state, the Sea Kings decided to swim else where before the Island Eater returned. And replacing them, the massive dead figure of the beast broke the surface of the water with a massive splash, again coming close to capsizing the Cotton Blossom with ease, most likely surprising the rest of the Sweet Pirates with it's sudden appearance.​

 

[Einsauer]

Johnny seemed shaken by all the commotion, but was quickly drawn back into reality when offered the chance to play music:

"Haha, that's okay, then. As long as ye make a sign to ward off evil spirits." He tried replicating the sign with his hat crumpled in his hand, "Say, if ye keep the volume down a bit, can ya give me a nice rodeo song? 'S more fun with music! Whoa!"

"Chaaaaa~" Johnny hooted with a cheery smile. "That's the spirit, Old-Timer!"
Without wasting any time, the fishman was back atop his board with his guitar in hand.

While he played on, Gerald's response came as well:

"I am not the Captain, I am one of the valued members of the crew! I joined recently and so I am still unfamiliar with names... HOWEVER! A Distinctive face stuck out to me; another fishman lead the crew and was responsible for designing our Jolly Roger in her own honor!" Gerald pointed out to the open Ocean; He noticed that there was a very prominent swirl in the waters and so he pointed right at the eye...

"Our Captain is none other than, Sweet Einsauer! She personally recruited me after our fated meeting on a Merchant Isle; I joined hoping to make a grand name for myself and so far this is already too interesting! I am loving my time on this crew: HA! HA!"

Johnny chuckled along with this interesting, armored man. "Chahahahaa~" Before remarking: "Y'all are exactly what I imagined pirates to be like, I need to meet this captain lady!" His interest being piqued at the prospect of meeting another of his kind. Soon however, he would be getting his wish...

A giant fish corpse erupted from the water, tossing him from his board once more and ending his song prematurely.

The Island Eater's eyes widened in surprise, unable to process what had happened, blood leaking into the sea from it's skull and maw. It had never imagined things would turn out like this. It's prey proved to be too strong, the king of the sea was now dethroned. Soon, those very eyes would turn a cloudy grey as it's lifeless body slowly floated to the surface of the ocean.

The blood-soaked fishwoman watched the giant fish begin to rise in the ocean, gallons of watery blood exited through its wounds and left a enormous, cloudy path of blood in its ascent. Her contracted pupils flickered frantically along the corpse, the steroids forcing adrenaline rapidly through her veins, driving her to fight on despite her target being slain. A heavily dissatisfied hiss left through her grit teeth as she looked up to the surface, seeing the minor serpents fleeing away from her ship... The fight was over, despite excess desire to kill surging through her. Her blood-shot eyes shifted to her ship, and the unfamiliar guests lingering around it.

As the enormous fish's corpse surfaced in dramatic fashion, so too did Captain Sweet Einsauer's feet land down on her ship's deck in a spray of ocean water and fish blood. The watery ichor formed a puddle at her feet as Sweet's eyes traced along her terrified swabbies, despite the violent rocking of the ship, the fishwoman paced along the ship's deck as a calm speed, veins still bulging with adrenaline.
She followed Mikami's nervous gaze out into the water, taking note of Lezard and Bill paddling around in the wild waves and the surfer clutching onto his board as well.
"...What have we here...?" She asked in an unnerving calmness that juxtaposed her pounding heart, a faux smile pulling across her blood-painted face. "I wasn't expecting so many guests today..."

"CAPTAIN BOSS-!" Mikami hollered, wide-eyed and nervous. "WE PROTECTED THE BLOSSOM, BIG-TIME!"
Sweet's eyes (bouncing from angry to calm at unpredictable intervals) shifted back to the giant-man, quieting him quickly.

"To what do we owe this pleasure?" She directed the question to Bill and Johnny, the new-comers. Johnny's eyes were transfixed on the fishwoman, allowing Bill the chance to speak for himself first. Mikami's enormous form shuddered, he was all too familiar with what was happening to his captain, this calm had potential to burst into a typhoon of fury very quickly.

"Can you keep it down out there!?" Came a hideous, scratchy voice from within Bill's small ship quarters. There was yet another unexpected presence on Sweet's oceanic lawn. The captain's eyes furrowed; was this a small band of competition for the future Pirate King: Einsauer? The drug-fueled fishwoman's suspicions were beginning to take hold as she kneeled down to grab her chains from the deck floor.

It seemed to all onlookers that without an explanation soon, there would be dire consequences...

"Gerald? What are ye doin' with these demon summoning pirates?" So he was a ghost after all, he thought, "Good to see ya! Wanna have a go as well?"

"TEREH-HI-HEH!" He cackled before attempting to reply however, the Sea Beast would not allow their conversation to go as smoothly as they'd wished. It thrashed about, Bill; The Old Man Gerald had Met in the open Seas maintained his balance taming the rough movements of the Monster as he attempted to kill it. Gerald was a bit worried for the man and so opted to jump off the ship again to help him, he lifted his boot and rested it upon the Railings of the Cotton Blossom however he paused for Johnny had answered him.

Johnny seemed shaken by all the commotion, but was quickly drawn back into reality when offered the chance to play music:

"Chaaaaa~" Johnny hooted with a cheery smile. "That's the spirit, Old-Timer!"
Without wasting any time, the fishman was back atop his board with his guitar in hand.

While he played on, Gerald's response came as well:

Johnny chuckled along with this interesting, armored man. "Chahahahaa~" Before remarking: "Y'all are exactly what I imagined pirates to be like, I need to meet this captain lady!" His interest being piqued at the prospect of meeting another of his kind. Soon however, he would be getting his wish...

"HA! HA! You're damn right, this battle has me pumped!" He exclaimed, Gerald's movements halted. The Cotton Blossom Aggressively teetered, He lowered his boot and planted it onto the deck and he grabbed onto the Ship's railing to maintain his balance; Gerald wondered what caused such a explosive spout, his head shifted into the direction in which the he heard the falling waters collided with the ocean. He dashed along the Deck to get closer to the source and activated his Observation Haki; Though unseen a flash of red signified the activation of this form of Haki.

Spoiler: Spoils of Activation

43 Mastery; Primary Path: +4 Reaction within 17m
Secondary Path: Presence Detection within 43m

He actively scoured Meters about him to find the cause of the spout... and he did. First, Another Massive Corpse of a fish rose to the surface. What followed was a pungent odor of what seemed to be the freshest of Blood from the massive beast.

"That Fish..." He thought...

A giant fish corpse erupted from the water, tossing him from his board once more and ending his song prematurely.

The blood-soaked fishwoman watched the giant fish begin to rise in the ocean, gallons of watery blood exited through its wounds and left a enormous, cloudy path of blood in its ascent. Her contracted pupils flickered frantically along the corpse, the steroids forcing adrenaline rapidly through her veins, driving her to fight on despite her target being slain. A heavily dissatisfied hiss left through her grit teeth as she looked up to the surface, seeing the minor serpents fleeing away from her ship... The fight was over, despite excess desire to kill surging through her. Her blood-shot eyes shifted to her ship, and the unfamiliar guests lingering around it.

As the enormous fish's corpse surfaced in dramatic fashion, so too did Captain Sweet Einsauer's feet land down on her ship's deck in a spray of ocean water and fish blood.

The Bloody Fishwoman or the more commonly known, Sweet Einsauer launched out of the ocean. Like a Demon she landed upon the Deck of the Ship. Gerald's Observation Haki allowed him to pick up her presence and so he followed her movements the best he could; His head swiveled swiftly and he gazed upon his Blood soaked Captain, Gerald was Hesitant to even move. It was a new experience for him... He Feared the Fishwoman right before him; with his Observation Haki he could not only feel her presence but his instincts screamed as though a predator had lurked nearby...

"C-Captain!" He shouted, he hesitated as his instincts were telling him to be quiet however based on how she looked and how she inquired of both bill and Johnny this conversation would not go so smoothly without a proper Mediator.

Nii, horrified, spat Geck'O's jutte into the sea, before swimming off quickly. San, seeing his comrade flee, would perform one final swing of his head dislodging the lance from his flesh, sending the old man crashing into the waters below before swimming away himself, blood trailing as he went. The duo was extremely hungry, however these prey proved to be too tenacious. In their weakened state, the Sea Kings decided to swim else where before the Island Eater returned. And replacing them, the massive dead figure of the beast broke the surface of the water with a massive splash, again coming close to capsizing the Cotton Blossom with ease, most likely surprising the rest of the Sweet Pirates with it's sudden appearance.

Geck'O let out a huge sigh. He did a huge mistake in believing his jutte would prevent the Sea Beast to close it's mouth. The beast spat the lizard's jutte like it was nothing. The pirate waited for a bit, hitting himself in the head enough time before diving underwater to look for his prized possession.

The hunter lost too much time hitting himself for his stupidity. He was barely able to locate the stick. When he emerged, his sclera was red as blood. He was tired, he let the current drift him closer to the ship and scaled the Cottom Blossom. He coudl hear Mikami's booming voice from where he was. The captain was there too, a lot of strangers. The lizard lost his bet and wasn't sure Sweet had forgiven him already for his actions against the news birdies. The woman was pissed already, he only hoped she would kill the newcomers instead of a swabbie this time. The pirate slowly walked to the Kitchen and began to cook. He was hungry, he had hoped to eat a sea beast today but he was going to work with some beef. Let Mikami do the brunt of the work with the Island Eater. and its meat.

The red-scaled lizard looked at his hands, unlike last time, he had gotten stronger. He made his choice already, the old man spoke about a famous restaurant and it's popular chief. Geck'O needed to see that place. He would need courage to face the captain and ask for her permission.

Bills defiant challenge to the giant sea king still hung in the air, just like him. The body of the giant blue Marlin had finally slid down the length of the chain, and he attempted to use it as a makeshift foothold to give the harpoon in his left hand a bit more play on the chain.
He roared again:
"Try'n bite me, small fry. Ye'll be my dinner!"
Suddenly the frightened sea king shook his head one last time, swinging Bill around with its massive strength until the Marlinspike, which didn't have a barb like the harpoon, dislodged from its stupid face, sending a bloody furious Bill flying.
He impacted the oceans surface standing on his makeshift fishscale surfboard in what Johnny, if he was looking, would surely find to be bad form, and thus immediately crashed into the water himself.
San meanwhile turned tail, fleeing the scene with his brother Nii.
Bill was overjoyed seeing this and accepted it calmly, the narrator lied.
"YOU YELLOW BELLIED RUNT! COME BACK HERE RIGHT NOW! ILL HUNT YE TO THA ENDS OF THA WORLD!"
But San didn't come back. While swimming towards the Pilar which had drifted closer to the Cotton Blossom, Bill kept sympathizing with the Sea King's situation:
"Ya better not let anyone else catch ye. Yer mine, ya hear!"
He tried to calm himself down by humming a few more verses of his shanty in and out of tune with his swimming strokes.

The last was the Smutje, left in his Caboose
He'd been feeding the rats, gave them hatchet and noose
Cooking the bodies, and taking their hats,
Yo Ho, and that rat was I!

"And what'll l eat now?"

And replacing them, the massive dead figure of the beast broke the surface of the water with a massive splash, again coming close to capsizing the Cotton Blossom with ease, most likely surprising the rest of the Sweet Pirates with it's sudden appearance.

The oceans turned solid as a giant mountain of goldfish meat blasted through the surface turning the surrounding ships nearly sideways on the giant wave it produced. Luckily the Pilar didn't capsize, but in coming down from the wave's crest it nearly slammed into Bill.
While he was clambering aboard his vessel, he could see the blood and water soaked woman -clearly she was the captain - aboard the other ship. She addressed him and the nearby Johnny:

"To what do we owe this pleasure?"

With Johnny clearly awestruck Bill took the chance to speak first:
"Aye, lass. Me name's Bill, mercen'ry fisherman. I presume yer tha sea witch what summoned that Monster? An just ta win the Davy Back Fight I started with yer Lizard guy? It's an impressive catch, I'll give ye that. But I caught sumthin' impressive as well!"
While speaking, he stowed his harpoon and chain in the taxidermied Marlin's body, and put the head, his Marlinspike, back on. He inspected it for damage, and found nothing but old Scars from its time as the most feared predator in its stretch of ocean.
"See, it took all me strength to haul 'im in, an' all me bait as well. Lad had a voracious appetite b'fore he tired himself out."
His trusty weapon, his greatest treasure looked as lively as the day he caught it, as if it could try to bite you at any moment. Those with knowledge in fish communication could see that it's face was still filled with grim determination.
"So we gotta decide, which fish is greater, tha giant demon, or this guy."
He pointed behind himself, where a small figure left his cabin.
"Im hungry!"

 

[Einsauer]

Mikami gestured to his armored comrade to stay quiet for now as Bill began to explain his presence to the pirate captain. The pseudo-giant's friendly eyes seemed to silently promise that things would likely work out better than expected.
Sweet's eyes locked onto Bill as he spoke. trailing the old man's movements:

The fishwoman's eyebrows furrowed as the old man spoke, a slight squint appearing at the mention of the Davy Back Fight, something that had not been mentioned to her. The captain's head pulled away from Bill and over to her reptilian crewman, scanning him for a moment then giving her attention back to the speaker. She let the man go on, while she formulated her response to this asinine situation.
Suddenly, her pupils seemed to drift away in a haze for a brief moment and her veiny arms went slack. A wave of exhaustion washed over her momentarily before she let loose a deep breath.

"Im hungry!"

A raspy voiced boy with blue, leathery skin waddled out excitedly. His tiny, bare feet slapping goofily on the deck of the Pilar. A large hat covered the tiny creature's eyes, but still he seemed to lock onto the Cotton Blossom immediately. Coat sleeves dragging across the wooden planks beneath him as he moved, the small fishman wandered to the edge of the Pilar and hacked up a chicken bone into the awaiting sea below him.

Sweet looked at the tiny abomination for a good long while before she looked back at Bill. "What the hell is that thing?" A tone of disgust and confusion clearly on display as she gestured to the drooling fishboy sniffing in the direction of their ship. The boy's head met the direction of Sweet Einsauer's voice.
His open-mouth gaped wider for a moment as he excitedly jumped in place.
"BIG SIS!" Came the shrill voice, he seemed to recognize the captain's voice. "BIG SIS SWEET! SHAHA, IT'S ME!"
The disgust deepened on Captain Einsauer's face, she had never seen this awful little guy in her entire life. She looked around, first at Bill, then her crew, then Johnny who had suddenly found his way onto the boat's deck and was mingling amongst her swabbies. "OVER HERE, IT'S ME GOCHI!" Another sigh of mental exhaustion fell from her lips as she looked back to Bill.

"...A Davy Back Fight, eh?-"
"BIG SIS!"
She looked back at the island-sized fish floating on the other side of her ship then back to Bill and his monster-baby-thing.
"...Well, looks like I win. I don't even think that thing is a fish."
"YOU REMEMBER ME, RIGHT?" Persisted the interrupting voice. "LOOK!"

"AGH!" Sweet finally snapped. "WHAT DO YOU WANT?!"

"...I'm hungry!"

Mikami gestured to his armored comrade to stay quiet for now as Bill began to explain his presence to the pirate captain. The pseudo-giant's friendly eyes seemed to silently promise that things would likely work out better than expected.
Sweet's eyes locked onto Bill as he spoke. trailing the old man's movements:

Gerald immediately silenced himself following Mikami's Gesture, his nerves were still at it's limit. Einsaur was still the predatory threat he had last sensed however after hearing Bill speak he found a bit of trust in the man's words. Only mere moments later had his Captain calmed down completely; her pulsating veins vanished and she looked exhausted. The entire crew was gathered upon the Deck of the Cotton Blossom, the threats we were tasked with taking care of were destroyed one after another.

​

A raspy voiced boy with blue, leathery skin waddled out excitedly. His tiny, bare feet slapping goofily on the deck of the Pilar. A large hat covered the tiny creature's eyes, but still he seemed to lock onto the Cotton Blossom immediately. Coat sleeves dragging across the wooden planks beneath him as he moved, the small fishman wandered to the edge of the Pilar and hacked up a chicken bone into the awaiting sea below him.

Gerald deactivated his Observation haki right after his Captain relaxed herself and then came... a little thing; it was cutely dressed and seemed to have quite the unique wave of expressing itself. Gerald Shared Einsaur's confusion as to What exactly it is but he did not share her disdain. I liked this little thing; He found it's appearance cute and unique and so it got merits in his eyes. Gerald didn't have much to add to the conversation at this instance; the fight had concluded and all is accounted for.

Silently he excused himself, he began walking off. Following the perimeter of the Cotton Blossom's Railings, He wished to go to his quarters for there was something interesting awaiting him within...

 

[Magimasterkarp]

Bill's personal fishing yacht drifted closer to the Cotton Blossom until it lay alongside the bigger ship aport the main deck. Due to his smaller boat and the female Captain's impressive stature, Bill had to look up considerably to speak with her. It seemed that Gochi, his prize catch, already knew this fishwoman. But it seemed she didn't know him.

"...Well, looks like I win. I don't even think that thing is a fish."

A grin crept onto Bill's face that, on a younger man's face would have insisted on being called "shit-eating" but had to settle for "dangerously cheery", the sort of smile you'd see on a shark headed bazaar merchant when a wide eyed tourist marches up to their stall excitedly talking about 'doing a genuine haggle'.
"Aye lass, 'es not just a fish. 'Es a fishman, an' 'es gonna be one of them big shots."
He tapped his nose, conspiratorily.
"I got an eye fer this. I been on a lotta ships, served a lotta captains, even been captain meself a few times. So believe me, this one's got potential. I got meself a picture of me holdin' him, gonna show that to folks when i retire. I'll be able ta claim I've caught the future King of tha Pirates! An' all yer giant goldfish is ever gunna be is a sea monster. Thar be no prestige in that!"
While talking, Bill had fished his pipe out of the breast pocket of his wet hawaiian shirt and began trying to wipe it dry with his thumbs. Arguing about whose catch was the greater one was one of his favourite activities as a sports fisherman. He blew some water out of the stem and patted his pockets for a box of tobacco.
But if'n ye wanna argue semantics."
He turned to Gochi, "Lad, why don´t you tell the nice Lass what crew ye told me ye were the captain of?"
He turned back to Sweet, while he started stuffing the bowl of his bent cherrywood calabash:
Speakin' of.. What crew are ye? Last time I met yer boy Gerald he wasnae inna crew yet."
