The Gryphon would show signs of affection with Shiki as he patted his beak before he made his way into the wagon. Finding himself comfortable under the soft seating and a window to see the surroundings. The elderly lady would speak with the Gryphon who was exceedingly overexcited and would make his way pushing the wagon.

Along the journey, Shiki would re-position his seating gazing out the windows and noting the traverse surrounding of the landscape until something begin vibrating as a sound would resonate

[*purururu*]

Shiki would stare at the Den Den until he answered.

[*gacha *]

" Hello? " he would answer until he realised the voice over the call was familiar and from the ship to which he responded, "What's up? ... Did something happen? " ... The voice that came from a marine officer stationed back at the ship until he would state that there was a static call that came from a marooned marine ship at another location.

This is just to bring up later as the next adventure as it won't play a part in Palla

With the den den call ending Shiki would sigh heavily then raise his head back, looking at the roof with him then thinking to himself ... ' Damn forgot to ask the elderly lady how long was this journey and hope Lucifer is there '

I'd wait patiently whilst watching Decim prepare the drinks, to which I'd take a sip knocking the drink back, my taste buds could taste the citrus-y, followed by a hint of sweet maraschino, and ended with dry, smoky rabarbaro from the drink. ' I need to offer this man a job '

Feeling the beauty grab onto my arm tightly whilst taking her sip and smiled until Decim responded which would make her face turn red as she responded right after to why I was asking about her.

" Interesting, thank you. Decim was it? ... I would wanna offer you a job as my bartender for my club, so how about the offer? ... " then turned to the beauty to answer to her comment ... " I have unfinished business with ~ " before I could finish another voice would cut me off.

Until the voice who would get out of his seat then reach into his pocket pull out some beli and rolling it over the beauty, I simply would take pick up my glass with the drink then raise it up feigning to take a sip but instead would scoff at the man's statement. Without even batting an eye to the man or the beauty.

Witnessing Decim bow even further with more respect noting he had rejected my proposal ... " I see your nothing but a harlot, Aerica? "

The mood of the room would shift to the point that I remained still composed, all the while having everything pile up from the very bar that I was at originally and then wooed by Aerica then knocking back the drink.

" Decim, give me your strongest scotch whiskey on the rocks and none of the cheap stuff " ... reaching into my inside pocket to pull out a luxurious cigar that i would rest in between my lips in the corner of my mouth.

Meeting the God Father:
@Dream

Shiki would find that his trip was quite relaxing. The bed seemed to be so inviting and peaceful for him. It's down feathers seemed to cradle his body just right despite the chaos that was occurring outside the Wally Wagon. Gryphon was sprinting back and forth, one edge of the street to the opposite side, narrowly passing much more reasonably paced Wally Wagons. The other creatures seemed to scoff at Gryphon along with their passengers. Gryphon on the other hand was having the time of his life. His tongue continued to travel behind him like a dangling rope.

"Do-Do-DOOOOHHH!!!"

It would continue on like that for some time, the sun nearly coming to set. The Wagon would slowly come to a stop, right in front of an open, yet small, mountain with a single cobblestone tower. It would have looked peaceful if not for one thing. The ground was covered in unconscious bodies. From the Wagon, the view to the front of the tower was easy for the average person to see. A single person seemed to be standing at the entrance, holding a much smaller person against the wall. In an almost casual matter, the figure would drag the other person along the wall before letting them drop to the ground. Deep crimson blood spread along that path. The figure had pale white skin with crimson mixed in. Was their skin marked by ink or by blood? It was had to tell. Turning to face the Wagon, they became a lot clearer to see. A large man with a dark bushy beard scowled in Shiki's direction as he stretched out his muscular left arm. Oddly enough, an axe seemed to spin out of the body of another figure and find it's home in his grip.

"I am what the Gods have made me! Who presents themselves at such a time as this?!"
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"As you wish, Sir"

Decim reached up for a very expensive looking bottle of scotch whiskey, opening it up and pouring the amber liquid into intricate looking glass with a ball of ice already inside. He poured a quite libral amount for the well dressed man before sliding it over. He bowed to Lucifer again before opening his mouth to speak. Before a word could be spoken, Atlas held his hand up and made a sweeping motion towards Decim. The bartender looked at Atlas and nodded before stealing a nervous glance at Lucifer. Atlas would scoot a little closer to him, the scent of expensive cologne filling the air. He smiled casually as he took a metal tin out from his breast pocket in his jacket. Popping the lid would reveal four very fine looking cigars. Atlas would take one and put it in his mouth, starting to put the lid back on before almost remembering that Lucifer was there and offering him one. Striking a match, he would light his cigar (as well as Lucifer's if he obliged), and he would take a few puffs before finally speaking again.

"It's been a long time Satan. Haven't seen you since Zeus and his kids took everything I had. I would have never had guessed one of my girls would bring you to me. Usually the guys they bring home... well they become a part of the Family! Waluigigigigigigi!"

Atlas let out a hearty laugh, his belly shaking slightly with each chortle. It seemed that everyone within earshot would laugh at this. The mood perhaps shifting once again for the fallen angel. Eyes watched him from all angles, hanging on to the words of Atlas. Their intent wasn't malicious, but it definitely had a familiarity. The giant man would take another puff of his cigar as he looked Lucifer in the eyes.

"This meeting feels like fate! All my centuries of planning get topped off with an old acquaintance who can aid my cause. Hear out my request. Do you want Decim here? You can have him. You can have whatever you want. There is just one thing that I need to have. Those many years ago, when I was thrust into peasantry and squalor, I vowed to take what belonged to me. I didn't care how long it would take or how much it would cost, those Olympian Usurpers would not get away with such INJUSTICE!"

Atlas clenched a beefy hand as he leaned in closer still to the man. His grey eyes seemed to have a fire behind them. Not only was he fired up, but the crowd around him seemed to be worked up as well. Cheers began to erupt from those around them. What might not have been clear before, might have become a lot clearer. Lucifer may have pegged Aerica as a harlot, but it looked like the entire casino was under Atlas' meaty thumb.

"I want Athena's throne."

The journey was smooth, the Gryphon was gleeful following the order to take Shiki to his destination who in response was in the wagon in comfort taking a short nap with his sword resting beside him. The travel was smooth, so smooth enough that had Shiki feel comfortable enough to even warrant a rest period and then wake up with a little table in the wagon where he would pour himself a short drink and a small packed lunch. With the sun taking his time then wanting to rest, the skies above darkened until the wagon came to a halt that had Shiki confused yet remembered the elderly woman's comment of where the destination would take a day to travel.

Grabbing a hold of his swords as he then stood to his feet, opened the door of the wagon that creaked, taking a step outside only to witness a mountain and a pile of corpses with another figure that stood before them and yelled out who was standing in his way.

Keeping a stoic expression sighing at what was presented before him, " I am looking for the Garden of the Hesperides, can you show me the way? " ... Instead of conforming to the man's comments, Shiki would ask him directions instead ...

Decim would then pour a sufficient amount of whiskey into a glass with some ice cubes placed into the drink that would sink down to the bottom with him then bow with him then take a glance at the person to my left then take a step back. He'd then take a look at my actions, the way I would speak as he then recognised just as who was approaching me closer then pulling out a tin with some fine-looking cigars. All I could do was take a glance with my current cigar resting on my lips, " Hmm ... Those cigars are limited and I only know one dealer that sells ... " though before I could finish my sentence he'd then comment, referring to Zeus and what transpired a long time ago which was followed with a hearty chuckle.

Hearing his desire and his deal that seemed good at first, though there was a catch I knew it yet stopped myself from blabbing out instead I'd scoff but not where he would recognise it was a scoff then responding.

" Is that what you desire? ... How about a counter deal, as you know who I am and what I am capable of? ... So how about a situation where we both can win " ... then taking my glass of whiskey to take a sip feeling the tingling sensation on my tongue and upper mouth of the whiskey as it rushed down. " If you want the power you desire then who is currently running the underground here? ... But in return not only do I want Decim, but I want you to find a way to get me a meeting with Athena " ... Atlas could see the shine in my eyes and momentarily flare ignite around my hands.

Then taking a cigar from the metal tin and placing it into my pocket under my coat, I'd stand before Atlas who now was bargaining with the devil though as of now didn't know what else he would lose in a bucket full of greed. Taking a puff on my cigar with a smirk on my face and blowing it to the side of Atlas, " So what do you say Atlas? "

With the world turning to anarchy, chaos bloomed in every corner of the earth, under every pebble was another bad one. What this world required was order in the shape of justice, but not just any justice one that would annihilate the pests of the world. There i was around performing many from under the belly of the shady side of the world, not earning recognition as to them my name was oblivious to.

It was little over a few hours many of those who assumed they was untouchable roused many feathers and causing stirs but i rose in promotion with a unknown rank and unknown aura.

The World Government had sent two emissaries and not one was heard of and now their patience grew thin.

As four vassals of mine were sent out each commanding their own ship as we, no i needed answers or Palla would pay for their repercussions on a nation wide scale. Each of the ships approached from four different directions each manning soldiers who preferred to spill every last man, woman, elderly, disable, and children's lives just for the giggles. Each was a ticking time bomb ready to be triggered.

Their vessels cut through waves with the sounds of seagulls mewing at the sight of the four and diverted their travels away from the island.

[Utsuro]: " I'll gather the Death Squad when they arrive then we'll act as one .... "

The world would continue to undergo a dramatic transformation as different factions from across the globe made their moves at a terrifyingly fast pace, trying their damnest to find a place in this era of piracy. However, while the pirates were in the lead in this new era, that didnt mean the World Government wouldnt use the choas to their own advantage.

The Kingdom of Palla. An island that was almost completely covered by one massive city, as well as a hub of trade, crime and various other activities. The World Government had had their eyes on this place for some time, previously sending two emissories to negotiate, yet no word had returned on their progress. With their patience worn thin, a fleet of four ships made their way to the enigmatic island from multiple direction, their decks full of the most ruthless characters the World Government had to offer.

As they made their way towards the island, the sound of massive flapping wings pierced the thick, busy atmosphere of the city, followed by an alarming shriek. A giant owl gracefully made it's way towards a large castle at the centre of the city. The World Government had no element of surprise, their presence had already been realized.

Each within their cabins aboard their respective ships, the platoon officers sat in tension-filled, empty rooms, absorbing the details of their debriefing. The weight of their mission hung heavily in the air. Each officer, operating under a pseudonym, was assigned to attack one of the four quadrants of Palla. Shark was to strike from the North. Adjacent to Shark, Salamander was poised to assault the South. Raptor was targeting the East, while Octopus, positioned next to Raptor, was locked in on the West.

The officers knew that the success of their mission depended on precise coordination and flawless execution. The strategic placement of each officer created a web of potential peril for their enemies, with each quadrant's assault being critical to the overall success. The room was silent except for the soft hum of the ships' systems, the tension palpable as they mentally prepared for the imminent confrontation.

Finally, there were the Platoon Vice-Captain and Captain, who had yet to reveal their strategy.

[Utsuro/Crow]: "They've made their move. But doesn't this seem too easy, just by the looks of things?"

[The Riddle]: "Indeed, it does. I hope each officer is prepared for the reality ahead. Their move was calculated to make us believe it was simple to breach the island's defenses."

I stood on the deck of the ship that had just set sail, the wind and waves conspiring in a symphony of foreboding. Clad in my tight, darkened body suit and an alien-looking helmet, I turned, issuing a command to Crow before the journey consumed my attention.

[The Riddle]: "We'll arrive in two days. Inform them to sit tight, wait, and watch. The real game has only just begun."

Utsuro bowed, a sinister snigger escaping his lips, and went to relay the message. The Kingdom of Palla, once the hunter, was now being hunted.

The threat of the World Government loomed over the island of Palla. An abnormally gigantic owl circled the center of Palla, it's eyes locked on a stone palace with bronze foundations, surrounded by cloistered courtyards with golden pavements. This was where the ruler of the city resided, a goddess revered by every single inhabitant. Athena. The Avian's wings flapped with the power of an eagle, while still cutting through the air as silent as a whisper. Loose feathers escaped from her foilage as she drew closer and closer to the golden gates. Spotting her incoming figure from the courtyard, guards adorned in golden armor quickly opened the doors allowing her entry into the goddess' domain.

Inside, the golden-floored hall was on full display, serving as both a council chamber and feast-hall for the Athenaid. The avian's eyes scanned the hall, while the inhabitants of the castle worked diligently on their duties, paying her no mind. Finally she would finally spot the enigmatic figure of her master. She was a majestic lady, with a beautiful, but stern face, accompanied with unsmiling full lips, grey eyes and a graceful build, emanating with power and authority. Today, she was clad in a full ancient Greek style Armor, arms folded and radiating with confidence as she relayed commands to her subordinates. The female owl unleashed a friendly shriek, grabbing the attention of the goddess. Dismissing the worker, Athena made her way towards the avian as the owl landed gently on her feet, immediately bowing in respect. Athena would smile in response.

"Rise, Mara. It's been quite some time. It's good to see you, old friend." She said, pulling the owl into an embrace. Mara wrapped her wings around the goddess, pulling her closer.

"And you as well, my Queen. I hope all has been well in my absense?" She replied, her voice calm like a gentle breeze.

"Excluding a small disturbance reported by Kratos quite some time ago, all has been well." She pulled away from the owl, gazing into her golden eyes. "And what of Lemnos? The temple of Athena...are they..?"

"Alive. But forever trapped in the darkness of La Spada's influence."

Athena clentched her fists in silent fury. "That wretched La Spada's strength and influence multiples everyday! She's taken down that powerful mortal, Big Mom. Soon her sights will be turned here. What was Hades thinking making a deal with that demon!"

"La Spada is not a threat we are mean't to face anytime soon. Maybe in a different thread of the future. For now, fate has different plans for us." Mara said grimly. "A fleet is on it's way here, my Queen. The one who sits atop the heavens has grown wary of our defiance. The World is coming for Palla."

The fleet cut through the sea, each ship a silent harbinger of the chaos to come. Inside their cabins, the platoon officers were a portrait of focused tension. Each within their private quarters, they absorbed the debriefing details, knowing the success of their mission hinged on precise coordination and flawless execution.

Agent Shark, aka Kisame, the Fishman, sat at the edge of his bunk, his fists clenched. The North quadrant was his target, and his hot-headed nature longed for the imminent action. His mind raced with plans, his impatience barely contained as he prepared his weapons and equipment.

Agent Salamander, aka VV, the male Lunarian gunslinger, meticulously cleaned his firearms. The South quadrant was his domain, and he knew that precision and speed would be his greatest allies. Each click and snap of his weapons was a calculated step towards victory, his fiery wings flickering softly in the dim light.

Agent Raptor, aka Nameless, remained in the shadows of his cabin, his thoughts a swirling vortex of sinister plans. The East quadrant awaited his dark presence, and he relished the thought of the fear and chaos he would sow. His quiet, sinister demeanor made him a living nightmare for any opponent.

Agent Octopus, aka Cumber, paced his quarters, the anticipation of battle energizing his every step. The West quadrant would feel his wrath, his battle-freak nature eager to clash with the island's defenders. His powerful frame and combat skills made him a force to be reckoned with.

Meanwhile, aboard the flagship, as i stood on deck, the wind whipping around me. Clad in my dark body suit and alien-looking helmet, i stood there like a figure of enigmatic determination. Turning to Utsuro, aka Crow, my trusted vice-captain.

"Their defenses may appear straightforward, but this is no simple task," musing to myself, my voice a smooth blend of charm and command. "We must be ready for the unexpected."

Crow nodded, his sharp mind already anticipating every potential obstacle. "Indeed, Captain. Each officer is prepared for their role. But we must stay vigilant. Palla is not a foe to be underestimated."

As the fleet closed in on Palla, the Kingdom of the Greek deity loomed ahead, its shores bristling with unseen dangers. The officers' ships maintained a tight formation, each vessel a cog in the intricate machinery of their assault plan.

The Next Day

The morning mist clung to the island as the officers prepared for their final approach. Each quadrant of Palla would soon feel the calculated fury of their assault. The silence on the ships was thick with anticipation, the calm before the storm.

I stood at the prow of the flagship, my eyes fixed on the distant silhouette of Palla. "We'll make our move under the cover of darkness. Ensure every officer knows their role and is ready to strike on my command."

Crow nodded, a sinister smile playing at the corners of his lips as he turned to relay the orders. "Understood, Captain. The real game is about to begin."

The officers received the message, each preparing in their own way. Kisame grinned, his hot-headed eagerness barely restrained. VV holstered his guns with a calm, determined expression. Nameless slipped into the shadows, a silent predator ready to strike. Cumber flexed his muscles, eager for the impending clash.

As night fell, the fleet split into its designated formation, each ship moving silently towards its target quadrant. The island of Palla, once a hunter, now found itself the prey of a team like no other.

The time had come. The Kingdom of Palla, home of a Greek deity, would soon face the wrath of the New World's most dangerous and cunning team. The officers, each a ticking time bomb, were ready to unleash their coordinated assault. The island's defenders would soon learn the true meaning of fear.
