Island The Azure City, Chongqing

[Einsauer]

Shaarib, after erasing the festering behemoth's remains looked around for a moment, his piercing, red eyes taking in the darkness-shrouded surroundings. The spirits were invisible to Shaarib, but he could feel their pull, weaker ones all around him, but two strong ones right before him.
Shaarib stepped forward, taking in his bounty: Song Wuji. The corpse that Shaarib had flown through the night for, enslaved for what felt like an endless, cloudy night.
Now, though, the marine could look down at his prize, it was tangible now; the phoenix-man's goal was now literally within reach.

The words were getting louder as he approached the high priest. The vile energy in the air was consuming him. He fell on his knees and clutched his head. Shaarib could not hear anything else. Song Fuji was prying into his most profound complex, fears, doubts, and dreams.

The corruptive shell of magical energy surrounding the priest's corpses manifested first in Shaarib's subconscious then dredged them up into the forefront of the marine's mind. Dreams turned goals, ideas that could be made achievable through the use of Song Wuji's unique form of witchcraft; surely the techniques could be replicated...

- " What am I saying ?" said Shaarib panting

Pulling himself from the toxic flights of fancy that were beginning to overtake him, Shaarib shook himself loose from the dark grasp finding purchase in his heart, the grasp that the diabolical priest was inflicting from beyond the grave, seemingly. Invisible tendrils snapped from Shaarib and it seemed for a moment that the priest's corpse twitched in response to the sudden separation.

Vice-Admiral Hassan moved on a ways from Wuji's corpse and went to Yuki's charred remains, just as he had left her in the raging inferno of his attack. Her spirit was strong, almost rivalling the corrupted soul of the high priest, however it was still drowned from a distance from.
The closer Shaarib got, the lighter he felt; he had already found a sense of peace in his own goddess. Now Shaarib's peace-of-mind was being firmly fastened by this kind, glowing energy. Unlike the sad, angry, bitter, scared, mischievous spirits and souls lingering in this place; this one was different.
There was understanding in what was happening, in what had happened. A wordless thought of peace and love towards the man who had slayed her, it was as though the Vice-Marine was being embraced into a gentle hug, hardly felt. There was no fear to be felt, no sadness or shame. There was no anger or stress from the night. The sleepiness remained, but the inflicted burdens were lifted in this moment.
Yuki offered this favor to Shaarib in understanding that he was a good man with a good cause, she knew he would see an end to the suffering caused by Song Wuji.

He went on to do the same thing with Yuki and if it took more time than necessary or if the kid saw tears on the Vice-Admiral's face as he put the woman delicately in her coffin, nobody would speak about it.

Effortlessly and gently he lifted Yuki up and in that moment her hold on him came into full strength forcing quiet tears from his eyes. She had found her peace and was eager for Shaarib to find his, though he would need finish his own journey to see peace. Shaarib gave her a dignified coffin rather than her corpse resting in this secluded crypt that she was imprisoned in and as he shut the coffin the feeling faded, leaving a lingering sense of acceptance in the man, a sense of compassion for himself and others; Yuki's emotions overpowering those of the previous victims of these occult experiments being conducted.
She was gone now, or perhaps sealed in...But it was as though she merely waited long enough to grant Shaarib a sense of rest from his torment and to ease his guilt. Shaarib was left alone in the damp room, only the fettered corpse of his short-term rival waiting for him.

Behind him he heard shuffling, with a quick turn he noticed nothing but the corpse, exactly where it was left...
The shuffling continued though, not from Song Wuji's remains...But from around the room's corners. Dark clumps removed themselves from the wall and fell to the floor, dragging themselves to the center of the ground-level.
The scraping of bones and squishing of flesh became and louder and louder, bones from countless decayed bodies fell together in a horrifying amalgam. The pile grew and grew before Shaarib's eyes, and in mere moments there was a "body" formed, freakish in nature; full human forms creating the monstrosity's arms, a pile of corpses to move, a mound of skulls resting atop the construct... The monster slowly dragged itself forward towards the Vice-Admiral.

As it loomed up to the raised section Shaarib was on, the fettered corpse of Song Wuji cracked and shifted. The empty eye sockets sprang to life with green fire filling the voids once more. The ruined priest's body snapped into the construct, becoming the "head" of the corpse colony.

Song Wuji was enacting a death sentence from beyond the grave for Shaarib Hassan, the intruder that ruined his vile world. One last trick from the corpse puppeteer...

"Fufufufufufufufu...Honestly I'm a little disappointed. The lack of hospitality is astounding!" Cletus said sarcastically.

"Can't say that's by accident, kid. Azure City is my turf." Responded the fishman. "This ain't a playground for marines or pirates."
King Shark's smirk faded a bit. "I'm sending you back to your captain without your top-half, I hope he's alright with that."

"Fufufufufufufufufu!! Maybe once I would have considered this a waste of my time! But, something in me has changed. I don't want to leave before wiping that FILTHY grin off of your face!" Cletus shot back with an insane grin of his own. Let the games begin. Ready. Set. Go.

King Shark's body seemed to tense then relax before he let out a short chuckle. It seemed that Cletus' confidence impressed, or at least amused, the rival pirate crew's captain. "Let's see you try it, kid." The shark said confidently in a deep register, unfaltering in his position...Mostly.
His arms outstretched over top of the water's surface and he gripped onto it once more, this time however he seemed to pull the top of the ocean up like a sheet of fabric from a pile. The shark-man briefly moved his arms around to keep the ocean under his commands before:

Kairyu Ipponzeoi (literally meaning "Sea Current Lifter"): A technique used by the user performed after Mizugokoro. He heaves the current upward, where it erupts from the ocean surface as a towering stream of water.

Destructive Potency Rank: B

Strength (boosted in water): 6. City Level + Rank: B (+2 DPR) + Haki (+3 DPR) = Total: 11. Small Continent Level!!

With a violent heave upwards, King Shark sent a large geyser up to meet the tricky target in the sky. The cold ocean water roared out in a frenzy as it found itself unnaturally moving upward, the pounding noise approached Cletus rapidly; the sound of haki crackling like electricity from within the waves.
"Come on in, little firefly. The water's nice!" It seemed the pirate was unfazed by Cletus' threat, only moved to continue the fight further.

While most of the fishman crew waited for their captain's order to engage, it seemed the serpent was slowly spiraling upwards from the depths. The size became more and more imposing as the shadow grew on the water's surface. The sea-monster, perhaps driven by hunger or a need for vengeance... Seemed to be preparing itself to attack Cletus alongside its captain. As it moved upwards, a forgotten snail-phone unfortunately fell directly into the gaping maw of the monster, disappearing along with its muffled ringing.
It was apparent, even from this distance and the low-visibility from the thinning fog, that this seaking would be able to rip the Lunarian straight from the sky without an issue.
The sun was now fully risen and the morning was in full motion, with the (soon-to-be) dismissal of the fog... There would be only Cletus in the wide-open air, a target just waiting to be hit.
The feeding frenzy begins...

Effortlessly and gently he lifted Yuki up and in that moment her hold on him came into full strength forcing quiet tears from his eyes. She had found her peace and was eager for Shaarib to find his, though he would need finish his own journey to see peace. Shaarib gave her a dignified coffin rather than her corpse resting in this secluded crypt that she was imprisoned in and as he shut the coffin the feeling faded, leaving a lingering sense of acceptance in the man, a sense of compassion for himself and others; Yuki's emotions overpowering those of the previous victims of these occult experiments being conducted.
She was gone now, or perhaps sealed in...But it was as though she merely waited long enough to grant Shaarib a sense of rest from his torment and to ease his guilt. Shaarib was left alone in the damp room, only the fettered corpse of his short-term rival waiting for him.

Shaarib was crying, it did not remember the last he did, but now tears were flooding. He was not sad, he wasn't angry anymore, he just felt all the weight on his shoulders levied. He was calm, content, and comforted. He never felt like this. He always had to bark at others, to clown them. First it was the odd looks the monks would give him in Skypiea. An abandoned baby nobody wanted, they never respected him. Then it was the Nun on Cross's island. They never liked his proximity to Hajib. He could feel the look of pity each time they saw the burn marks. Hajib, he trusted, he devoted himself to. But the man threw him away. He only got his respect when he saved the Marine from the Vampirates. But now, Yuki gave him comfort he only had with the 169th and even then, he never wanted to look before them. He was their leader. The Vice-Admiral needed to smoke. He looked in his pockets but did not saw one. He then remembered a little gift he received from Li An, a pack of cigarette hidden in his tunique. He opened it but a shuffling noise made him wait and turn.

​

Behind him he heard shuffling, with a quick turn he noticed nothing but the corpse, exactly where it was left...
The shuffling continued though, not from Song Wuji's remains...But from around the room's corners. Dark clumps removed themselves from the wall and fell to the floor, dragging themselves to the center of the ground-level.
The scraping of bones and squishing of flesh became and louder and louder, bones from countless decayed bodies fell together in a horrifying amalgam. The pile grew and grew before Shaarib's eyes, and in mere moments there was a "body" formed, freakish in nature; full human forms creating the monstrosity's arms, a pile of corpses to move, a mound of skulls resting atop the construct... The monster slowly dragged itself forward towards the Vice-Admiral.

The Dark Forces were relentless, it showed how long they stained the temple. Bones were coming from all directions. Shaarib was a player, he let them do their biddings. He lit his cigarette up and observed carefully. Quickly, the bones assembled and created a monster with humongous arms. The minster made of different human skeletons began to move forward at a slow speed. The Priest of the Goddess took one deep breath, completely burning most of his cigarette and exhaled an enormous cloud of smoke. It smelled like lavender, that woman had some taste. Ironically Shaarib began to smile.

​

As it loomed up to the raised section Shaarib was on, the fettered corpse of Song Wuji cracked and shifted. The empty eye sockets sprang to life with green fire filling the voids once more. The ruined priest's body snapped into the construct, becoming the "head" of the corpse colony.

Song Wuji was enacting a death sentence from beyond the grave for Shaarib Hassan, the intruder that ruined his vile world. One last trick from the corpse puppeteer...

- " Ain't you tired dear friend ?"

Why was he laughing, his rival had saw cry like a baby. He had to erase all proof of said moment. Blue fire came to life and spread around his left arm. The ground beneath them began to shake as the the fire around the arm turned black, and lighting crackled around the arm dangerously. Song Wuji had saw something like this happen previously. He dodged an attack slightly similar. Then SHaarib had wanted to show his mastery of Fishman Karate. Now, he was going to try something else entirely. Last time he used an attack that potent, his arm broke into pieces and the target, Bullet did not suffer a bit. Shaarib's arm was shaking furiously, he had to use his right hand to cover the excess of energy.

Although the festival was a failure, the Vice-Admiral learned something from Garp. He had made a mistake by wanting the energy to be focused on one precise point. He had to let go of it. Be an arm of pure destruction. One step, then two and Shaarib threw his hand in the wind, he would try to repeat Garp's feat. The old man had destroyed half of an Armada, Shaarib was going to compare where he stood. The spirit would be angry, but Shaarib was not letting Song Wuji survive again. He had underestimated the zombies and nearly died because of it. Goddess gave him another chance, he will not fail.

A search for an ancient temple, transformed into a fight between pirates. Cletus stayed afloat in the air, threatening the captain of the Leviathan Pirates; King Shark. The Fishman's body would tense for only a moment before relaxing.

"Let's see you try it, kid." He replied confidently, accepting the Lunarian's challenge head on. The pirate grabbed onto the surface of the water, pulling it like it was a piece of cloth before violently heaving it upwards towards Cletus' position. A geyser formed through sheer strength and boosted by the power of Haki. The might of a fishman! "Come on in, little firefly. The water's nice!"

The Vampirate kicked off the air again to stay afloat as the blast of water drew closer and closer. "So this is the power of a fishman!"
His smile did not falter. King Shark appeared to be stronger, especially in his natural element, however his strength wasn't lacking on his end! He kicked off the air propelling himself towards the attack with his right armed cocked. His body burst into flames, burning with vengeance intertwined with lunarian biology. An attack King Shark would have recognized from before. The Lunarian brought it forth with all of his might, punching the geyser head on!

"How about you come on out instead? I can send you flying like your friend!"

KABOOM!!! The combination of attacks resulted in a grand explosion of fire and water that lit up the sky and the surface of the sunken city! Cletus was sent soaring through the air before landing by his feet on the roof of another old building. "I can't hold back! Have to watch out for his friends too! Do I take them out one by one? I don't think im beating them in the water..."​

 

[Einsauer]

Shaarib, after a moment of retrospection, unveiled the lavender-laced cigarettes that he had received from the book house's matron. Upon lighting it there was a noticeable shift in the air around him; as the thin stream of smoke arose, lingering spirits were purged away from the temple.

The Priest of the Goddess took one deep breath, completely burning most of his cigarette and exhaled an enormous cloud of smoke. It smelled like lavender, that woman had some taste. Ironically Shaarib began to smile.

As Shaarib released the concentrated cloud of lavender smoke, a collection of howls escaped from the unholy creation. Souls visibly seeped from the puppet and escaped from their prisoner. The monster was incapable of speech, but the eyes glowing bright atop the creation spoke volumes.
Song Wuji was stuck, his puppet currently decommissioned, the arms of his creation hardly able to move.

Blue fire came to life and spread around his left arm. The ground beneath them began to shake as the the fire around the arm turned black, and lighting crackled around the arm dangerously...

...Shaarib's arm was shaking furiously, he had to use his right hand to cover the excess of energy.

Song Wuji's own body flinched, desperate to get his monster to move. Energy poured from Shaarib, purging away all the lost souls and casting them into peace.
An enormous 'arm' began to lift... But the vice-admiral was too fast:

One step, then two and Shaarib threw his hand in the wind, he would try to repeat Garp's feat. The old man had destroyed half of an Armada, Shaarib was going to compare where he stood. The spirit would be angry, but Shaarib was not letting Song Wuji survive again. He had underestimated the zombies and nearly died because of it. Goddess gave him another chance, he will not fail.


- " Galaxy Impact ! "

The wretched construct angulated and shivered in anticipation, awaiting the impact with no way to prevent it. In a moment, scented with lavender, a violent explosion of colors erupted from the impact of the punch. A hideous choir of screeches were quickly drown out in a violently crackling shockwave that sundered the phoenix-man's opponent in a mere instant. The deafening shockwave pushed outward from the epicenter and blasted all things back, including its creator (Shaarib). Bone and brick fragments stirred up in a violent flurry of debris and the walls blasted outward.

The temple's structure howled as parts of the second story collapsed down atop the room. Stirred dust was mostly all one could see, but there was a juxtaposing calmness in the destruction; Song Wuji's influence was gone. His spirit had been vanquished.
The crisp morning air from the outside poured in over the debris, as did the sunlight onto the collapsed section of the temple.

King Shark watched with a confident grin as the water seemed ready to slam into and overtake the bothersome, flying pirate. A brow raised curiously as Cletus rushed down to meet the geyser head-on rather then an expected dodge.

"How about you come on out instead? I can send you flying like your friend!"

The sharkman went to respond to the threatening quip with one of his own but was cut off by the colossal explosion of steam and fire that erupted overhead. Other figures aside from King Shark froze, even the titanic sea king seemed caught off guard. The captain used this moment to leap from the water and pursue Cletus with a savage look in his dark, beady eyes.

Cletus was sent soaring through the air before landing by his feet on the roof of another old building. "I can't hold back! Have to watch out for his friends too! Do I take them out one by one? I don't think im beating them in the water..."

A heavy, foul breath (heavily perfumed with the stench of fish and seawater) fell from King Shark's maw as he landed down behind Cletus on the rooftop. The captain wasted no time and lunged at Cletus face first, multiple rows of jagged teeth locked onto him. The fishman's face and teeth glistened with a crackling mask of haki. A primal growl escaped from captain of the Leviathan Pirates as he closed in at an alarming speed. King Shark would attempt to remove Cletus' arm with his blade-sharp teeth if the Lunarian wasn't quick enough!

As Shaarib released the concentrated cloud of lavender smoke, a collection of howls escaped from the unholy creation. Souls visibly seeped from the puppet and escaped from their prisoner. The monster was incapable of speech, but the eyes glowing bright atop the creation spoke volumes.
Song Wuji was stuck, his puppet currently decommissioned, the arms of his creation hardly able to move.

SHaarib was surprised, the cloud of smoke he exhaled had magical effects on Song Wuji's monster. Maybe it was the lavender or it was due to Li Ann. The woman seemed mysterious, the smoke paralyzed the monster and permitted SHaarib to unleash his attack with no hindrance. The Vice-Admiral did not think much about the situation, every advantage was good to take.

Shaarib flung his arm in the wind and released all the compressed energy. A shockwave blasted everything, strong enough to push everything outward. Shaarib was thrown backward and fell on his butt. The skeletons dispersed in the air, the fragile bones turned into dust. Some bones, Song Wuji's, he hoped, fell in front of him. Through all this, the Vice-Admiral still kept the butt of the cigarette in his mouth. He took it out and looked at it, impressed

- " You did good Buddy"

The temple's structure howled as parts of the second story collapsed down atop the room. Stirred dust was mostly all one could see, but there was a juxtaposing calmness in the destruction; Song Wuji's influence was gone. His spirit had been vanquished.
The crisp morning air from the outside poured in over the debris, as did the sunlight onto the collapsed section of the temple.

SHaarib had destroyed the temple once again, the second floor had collapsed on theirs. He could see the rumble that fell through the hole. The temple was destroyed but everything felt calm. The vile energy around them was gone. SHaarib felt a peace until he realized the room was illuminated by the sunlight. He had to go back to the city immediately. Behind him, still attached to his body, he had Yuki's coffin. Now he had to find proofs of Song WUji's deeds. He had to ask the kid for help, even though he had ruined the kid's home for the second time.

The Vice-Admiral got up, dusted himself, and began to look for Song Wuji's remains.

- "Kid ! I need to find Song Wuji's belongings ! I did what you asked me too, now ain't anybody preventing from moving where you want. I need to get to back to the city immediately. Then I shall beat that freaking Shark's ass !"

 

[Einsauer]

The temple, in the aftermath of Shaarib's destructive finishing blow to Song Wuji, creaked and moaned in the gentle rays of Azure City sunlight. Rubble from overhead, rained down in small collections of wallboards or flooring. All else was quiet, only Shaarib's own breathing met his ears now. All of the voices were gone now, no longer trapped into this place once corrupted by the high priest's accursed magics.

The Vice-Admiral got up, dusted himself, and began to look for Song Wuji's remains.

Dusty, fragile bones littered the destroyed crypt's stone floor all around him. These loose bones and ashes could have belonged to any number of these victims, it was hard for Shaarib to distinguish any differences amongst what remained of his battle. Shaarib looked around for a brief time more before calling out to the spirit that seemed intrinsically linked to the building:

- "Kid ! I need to find Song Wuji's belongings ! I did what you asked me too, now ain't anybody preventing from moving where you want. I need to get to back to the city immediately. Then I shall beat that freaking Shark's ass !"

Shaarib stood amongst the brutalized section of this ancient lair awaiting a response that was beginning to seem unlikely. Shaarib was met with an intentional silence from the spirit... but eventually her manifested form entered the collapsed room, hovering slightly above the ground (now free to enter this portion of her home). It was apparent by her sunken face she seemed displeased with the condition of the temple once more.
Niang-Niang gave Shaarib a cold look for a moment and glanced around at her home then released a small sigh of relief, relief in that at least the task was handled.
"Must you insist on carelessness?" She asked in a near-rhetorical fashion. "...Very well, Shaarib."

The spirit raised her hand and the bones of the high priest raised above the rest, the skull still holding onto the singed hair of the priest.
"You upheld your side of this agreement and for that, you have my gratitude. You may take as you wish from the wretch's remaining equipment and artifacts. Most have been removed from this place, however some remain."
She reached behind her back and revealed a wicked tome detailing the usage of human souls as weapons and conduits for greater spells. "Perhaps this though would be the most useful for your purposes..."

She allowed Shaarib to take whatever he wished and nodded to him in a mixed level of approval. "Thank you and good luck."
And with that, the phoenix had repaid his debt to the god... Freeing him of his burden and allowing him to return to the city.

Cletus had successfully managed to stop King Shark's attack. However, the Fish Man had no intentions of giving the lunarian even an inch of breathing room. He landed behind Cletus, his breath pungent with the scent of fish and sea water, a guttural growl escaped his throat before lunging at the Vampirate with two rows of haki coated teeth. With only seconds to spare before the Fish Man tore off his arm, Cletus engulfed his body in a thick, dense dome of fire enhanced by mix of Busoshoko Haki and Ryou....

# Shaarib's trip was finally over, now he had to return to Azure City as fast as he could. He was already late for the meeting they were supposed to have. The birdman paid his dues, he had Song Wuji's remains, he had saved Yuki. Now he needed to meet with the Emperor and beg for forgiveness. It didn't sit well with the Vice-Admiral but helping the World Government get allies mattered more than Shaarib's pride. It was the only way to the Admiral's seat. Shaarib ran and jumped through the Hoel, changing immediately in the blue bird he was known for. He flew above the forest and began his trip to Chongqing. Then, he saw an enormous explosion of fire in the distance. He knew where it was, he already went there : The Sunken City. What was happening with fishmen ? Who was courageous enough to fight them ?

- "Ma, ma..." Shaarib let out a sigh, he needed to make a choice here and there. The Vice-Admiral took out his dial and contacted Hajib. Leaving him a voice note : " Tell Genjo to find Li An, she's the only one that have any proof of what happened in the Temple, tell Vlad to travel to where he found Genjo last night. The other proof will be there. I have something I need to see before I get back. A fight is happening in the Sunken City, I can't miss that ! " He shut the link with a little CLIK

The Vice-Admiral was going to spy on the Leviathan, maybe it was time to act on his promise. Shaarib flew to the Sunken City and was surprised to find what he saw. Here was King Shark fighting a Lunarian. The bird kept himself well above the fighters, he waited patiently. He was going to act soon. He just needed to wait for the scale to tip in ones favour. #

- "..."

The other proof will be there. I have something I need to see before I get back. A fight is happening in the Sunken City, I can't miss that ! " He shut the link with a little CLIK

Distracted away from the very last leg of his journey, Shaarib left the bodies of the Yuki and Song Wuji for his allies to retrieve as evidence of his work on this island. The sudden signs of intense combat at the pirate hideout had peaked the marine's interest and after sending his grandfather a message, he took off high into the sky and headed for the clouds looming above the Sunken City.

Upon coming close enough to study the action, he found that a lunarian was locked into combat with the captain of the Leviathan Pirates, King Shark, atop the rooftop of a rundown, sunken temple. Blood and soot painted the ancient tiles beneath the two skirmishing pirates.

After surveying the situation, Shaarib elected to wait for either the lunarian or the fishman to overstep then he would make his move. Shaarib watched on as the battle continued...

@Emperor Cross (You see the following as well.)

King Shark pressed through and grabbed ahold of the pesky Lunarian with his mighty jaw, forcing himself through the roaring fire surrounding him as his opponent seemed to ignite the air. Cletus' blood coated the pirate captain's gruesome rows of teeth and stained his lips, before he has a chance to taste this rare blood, the winged man responded to the assault with a technique of his own. The shark's eyes were eerily rolled back in a controlled frenzy. At this close distance, Cletus could see the peeling flesh on King Shark starting to char and burn, but soon after his entire body coated with a thick layer of glistening armament haki.

Throwing his right arm back while coating his fist in ryou and hardening, he brought it forward aiming to deliver a flaming punch into the Fish Man's abdomen. "GET OFF OF ME! IFRIT'S COMET!!"

The shark's reflexes were jarring, instead of clashing with the attack however, King Shark met the blow with a punch of his own aimed at Cletus' abdomen in response. The Leviathan captain clenched his jaw down hard on Cletus's shoulder as the two punches met with their targets.

Without even refocusing his eyes, upward curls appeared at the corners of the haki coated shark's lips. King Shark released Cletus arm with one last yank of his jaw then smugly licked his lips.
"DUNADUNADUNA!-" The fishman chortled, simultaneously releasing breaths of exhaustion all the while. "I bet that tail is delicious-"

Cletus watched as the Fishman's peeling flesh began to char and burn from the heat of his flames, before a layer of hardening became visible on his skin. The Leviathan pirated clenched his jaw down hard on Cletus' shoulder, dislocating it in an instant. As the Lunarian's fist drew closer, he would return one of his own. An exchange of blows!

King Shark's fist buried into Cletus' abdomen with zero remorse, breaking his ribs in a single strike. The Fishman released his arm as the Lunarian coughed up blood from the damage. "DUNADUNADUNA! I bet that tail is delicious-" The captain said in between breathes. Cletus staggered, swaying from left to right as he struggled to keep his balance. Panting heavily, his sight was leaving him as his consciousness began to fade. King Shark had got him good. With white eyes, he fell backwards with a heavy thud. Cletus had been knocked out, the damage was too severe.

Meanwhile in the distance, two ships sailed at full speed in the direction of the Sunken City, their pirate flags fluttering in the wind clear as day.

"He's there, like I said. However, his aura is fading."

The figures on the ship all had a wore a look of surprise at this revelation.

"Cletus, was it? It appears he might be a bit in a bind."

"Full speed ahead. Tell KG to prepare for a fight."​

 

[Emperor Cross]

Shaarib, as the fight unfolded before his eyes, couldn't help but let out a loud but boisterous cackle. It even seemed melodic coming from his beak. The pirates decided everything on punches, and the Vice-Admiral's laughter that was so loud stopped for a bit. He had been enjoying the spectacle of the fight. He was glued to their reactions, how their bodies would tense with each blow. But he did not predict the Lunarian to lose all of his energy, he observed the pirate swaying left to right, right to left before losing consciousness. The fight already had a victor in the first round, King Shark was a beast. The bird spun on it and took its hybrid form. He had been nervous about the result but in the end, it seems their fight was for the title contender.

The birdman approached delicately the two, still a little bit above ground. Shaarib, after covering his foot with haki, threw a kick in the wind, creating a blue and semi-circular air blade. He trusted the fishman to evade his attack. He just wanted the pirate to know about his presence. He had promised the veteran a fight he would not forget and was ready to act upon said promises.

Cletus staggered, swaying from left to right as he struggled to keep his balance. Panting heavily, his sight was leaving him as his consciousness began to fade. King Shark had got him good. With white eyes, he fell backwards with a heavy thud. Cletus had been knocked out, the damage was too severe.

The Lunarian collapsed and the fishman sneered at his handiwork, the beaten pirate lying upon the weathered tiles. A few of his underlings that were gathered at the surface let loose a proud cheer, the giant sea snake awaited a portion of the body to be thrown to him for his patience...

King Shark stepped forward only once before a pulse surged through him. King Shark threw his head back, a thick black stream of smoke billowed from his throat and gills like a chimney.
"GAAHHH!!" Roared the shark-man as he staggered backwards. His insides were burning, the fire had punched clean through the pirate's haki shell and was cooking him from inside. A small, charred puncture wound was visible on the fishman's abdomen now (as well as an unseen smaller exit wound out his back).
King Shark remained standing as the black smoke turned to visible flame spreading around him.

Shaarib, after covering his foot with haki, threw a kick in the wind, creating a blue and semi-circular air blade. He trusted the fishman to evade his attack. He just wanted the pirate to know about his presence. He had promised the veteran a fight he would not forget and was ready to act upon said promises.

The attack fell swiftly, and in truth the fishman knew his time had come regardless. He pulled out of the way the attack as a final act of defiance, falling onto his side with a splash of blood leaving his mouth. "duna-" He snickered weakly. "The other firefly is back..." The power faded away from the monstrous form's voice and soon too, did his head fall limp. King Shark intentionally died, robbing Shaarib of his battle.

The crowd of pirates in the water below hissed and jeered the new-comer's arrival.
The heavy sound of of feet slamming onto the roof tiles with Shaarib interrupted the cacophony of hatred happening below. A huge imposing orca-like being stood, facing Shaarib. "What's so funny, brat?" They asked, a growl accentuating the intimidation. "You're about to be the next splash of paint to our roof."
Queen Orca reached down and grabbed King Shark with one hand, tossing him down into the water, should there be some small hope of recovery...

The power faded away from the monstrous form's voice and soon too, did his head fall limp. King Shark intentionally died, robbing Shaarib of his battle.

Shaarib felt the voice of King Shark leaving his body. The Pirate used his last breath to evade the Vice-Admiral's attack. He was dead, once again, Shaarib's responsibilities hindered his pleasure. He had wanted to fight the Shark, to be the one to defeat him. Now, a pirate he did not know won against King Shark. Shaarib's blood was boiling, veins were bulging on his forehead. He was barely keeping his Haki in check, the birdman was sick. The air crackled around him, and just before he exploded, he began laughing. A laugh despite the marine's attitude and smile, full of sadness.

Sadness turned into anger. He had wanted to fight the leader of the pack. He did not want anything else. If the Queen wanted to fight, she was going to get her fight. Shaarib was going to slaughter them all. Still in a stationary position above the fighters, the birdman's wings began to move at a higher speed. He was flapping his wings with more strength, at the third flap; A gust of wind formed. The gust turned into a tornado and took the direction of the arena under Shaarib's.

Shaarib began to rush in at top speed, in response Queen Orca confidently cracked their neck from side to side; it seemed that they were newly in command of the Leviathan Pirates. In the waters, below the troops divided into plotting against Shaarib and attempting to revive their fallen captain: King Shark.
With a sparkle of red in their eye, Queen Orca leapt very high, up into the air predicting the tornado before Shaarib could even throw it:

He was flapping his wings with more strength, at the third flap; A gust of wind formed. The gust turned into a tornado and took the direction of the arena under Shaarib's.

- "Tornade !"

The devastating gale swept down on the decrepit temple roof, blasting away the tiles at first, but soon taking more and more of the temple until there was only a platform standing above the debris-filled ocean around it. Queen Orca still in the air, kept their focus on the skypiean invader rather than the obliterated temple scatted in the waters below.
The mighty (impromptu) pirate captain locked in on the agile vice-admiral from above and was now coming down at Shaarib with heels directly out at him. Queen Orca was coming down like a bomb being dropped, a dangerous aura radiated out as the air crackled around them!

Shaarib barely saw her coming, he had been too angry, too focused on something else. He wasn't able to respond to the rocket launched at him accordingly.
Our hero’s body hardened and became as hard as iron. He stopped the movement of his wings, one covered his body while the other went to meet the Queen. Their clash lasted for less than a dozen of seconds, the widow overpowered the marine, went through the wing and it the other with her feet. Shaarib tried to stand firm but ultimately, he was sent crashing into one of the houses.

In the rumbles, the soldier examined his wounds, she broke one of his arm and his ribs. For someone of her build, she was damn fast. The flames on Shaarib’s body roared. His broken bones were back to their original state by the time the man got up. Fighting a guy with regenerative powers was hard, she was going to learn to day. Oddly enough, Shaarib was back to his normal form. His mohawk dusty and full of concrete. He had a predatory smile on his face. He wasn’t used to fighting people faster than him, it was rare. But Shaarib never backed off from a challenge. His blood was boiling, she would be the one to offer him a challenge. To beat her, he would need to focus solely on his training. The fight with Hayato made him stronger and faster when using Rokushiki. It was time to show it.

The Vice-Admiral hit the ground ten times and launched himself at the Queen. The black blur zig-zagged its way to her before turning blue. Shaarib appeared, left arm outstretched, ready to unleash a concentrated shockwave. Shaarib didn't have enough time to release a full Rokuougan on the Queen but a one-handed version of it would be good enough to open the bal.

Cletus collapsed on the floor from the accumulated damaged he endured. The water bullets that pierced through his body. The punch to his abdomen, led to the unconscious form of the lunarian before King Shark. The Fishman sneered, satisfied with his handiwork, however he wasn't unscathed. After taking one step, the pirate threw his head back in agony, as a thick black stream of smoke streamed from his throat and gills like a chimney. His insides burned as he staggered backwards, black smoke turning to visible flames that spread around his body.

Suddenly, a new figure made his presence known, sending a semi circular blade of are flying towards the fishman! It was the marine Cletus had followed earlier. All King Shark could do was evade the oncoming slash before falling to the ground, dead from the severity of his wounds. Leaving the marine to face the rest of the Leviathan Pirates alone.

As the Vice Admiral faced off against the remnants of the Leviathan Pirate remnants, a man would approach, flying through the air using the very same technology Cletus had used earlier before. The Raid Suit. This man was "Desert Rebel Koza".

"It was just as you said! The others are too busy squabbling with each other! I have my sights on Cletus, attempting to pull him out now." Koza said, hanging up his Den Den Mushi. Thanks to the efforts of his Kenbunshoku awareness, had sensed the strength of the leviathan Pirates and the newcomer, and had cut his plan of a frontal assault as he originally planed, to KG's dismay. A frontal assault would have made it difficult to pull Cletus out safely, who's life had already been fleeting. As such, Koza took it upon himself to save his friend. He flew slightly upwards, before descending at hypersonic speeds. At the same time, Queen Orca leapt very high up into the air evading the marines attack before it happened. Then, she would come crashing down with her heels before clashing with the Vice Admiral's wings, sending him crashing into one of the houses. He would recover his wounds, before attacking back with a powerful attack of his own. All the while, Koza had already grabbed the unconscious body of his comrade and left, while the two titans were distracted with each other.

After returning to the Armageddon, the Vampirates had already began to raise anchor and set sail, horrified by Cletus' injuired state.

"God Damn! What tha hell happened to you kid!" KG said in panic.

"He can't answer you, he's unconscious! Now get him to the med bay! The longer we take, the higher the chance he dies!"

With that, the Vampirates set sail into the East Blue, away from the Azure City, not ever having found the temple of legend. Maybe one day, the pirates would return to claim it's secrets? Who knows, for fate is a mysterious mistress.

Queen Orca's attention was fixated on Shaarib Hassan before their feet even touched the platform. The landing was surprisingly controlled, hardly unsettling the dust and woodchips left behind on the remaining stone platform. It seemed no sooner than their feet touched down, Shaarib (healed quickly by the phoenix's power) was rushing towards the second-in-command of the Leviathan Pirates.
Even without future sight, Queen Orca's reflexes and observation were trained to near perfection.
As the punch flew in at maximum velocity, the hefty, haki-covered fist came out in a defensive jab at an equally alarming speed in attempt to negate as much damage as possible from vice-admiral attack.

Queen Orca's haki covered arm was blown back and soon, due to the following shockwave, the pirate was sent toppling backwards towards the ledge of the arena. While their one arm had received a massive blow, the good arm grasped ahold of the ledge just before the black-and-white monster fell into the water.
They smirked at Shaarib as they picked themselves up, standing confidently at the edge of the platform.
"You're a strong one... That's not gonna change what's gonna happen." Came the imposing voice, while Queen Orca shook their bad arm back to a semblance of functionality. "I'm not as sloppy as the shark."

@Emperor Cross

While the combatants were locked in fierce combat, members of the Silver Vampirates had successfully retrieved Cletus from this dangerous area. The fishmen watched from below as The Armageddon, a ship bearing the flag of their well-known crew, entered their territory then immediately began to leave. They remained still in the water, terrified at the prospect of combat with such a powerful crew without their captain. The giant sea-beast simply waited below, cautious of the giant shimmering warship as it made its entrance and departure.

Cletus' adventure in Azure City was seemingly over for now, but the massive wound he had dealt to this criminal circuit parasitizing The Azure City would be felt by the innocent people of this land.

@Infinity Cheers, 'twas fun.

 

[Emperor Cross]

Shaarib, with his speed boost was able to get to the Queen. His attire and his youthfulness made her underestimate there Skypiean. To challenge his punch, she threw one too. She thought it would be enough but she found herself at odd, she lost in the power struggle. Like Shaarib moments ago, Orca was sent toppling backward, nearly falling from the platform. Our hero let out a small laugh, maybe he should've gone for the kill. Now she was going to be serious.

They smirked at Shaarib as they picked themselves up, standing confidently at the edge of the platform.
"You're a strong one... That's not gonna change what's gonna happen." Came the imposing voice, while Queen Orca shook their bad arm back to a semblance of functionality. "I'm not as sloppy as the shark."

Shaarib was a chatty bird, he liked to speak during a fight, quips here and there but he did not utter a word. He had honor, he waited until she got up to attack. His talon cut the air and a blue projectile formed and went at the fishwoman. Instead of being the usual semi-circular air-blade, Shaarib's projectile began to swirl on itself, targeting her torso.

Spoiler

As soon as his talon hit the ground, Shaarib bounced forward, using Geppo to propel himself. For the third time or fourth that day, lighting began to spark around Shaarib. He did not want to let the pirate breathe. She was not going to get away from him. She used Fishman Karate so maybe it was hubris that caused Shaarib to attack her with it. He threw his overhead fist forward and unleashed a shockwave charged with black lightning.

His talon cut the air and a blue projectile formed and went at the fishwoman. Instead of being the usual semi-circular air-blade, Shaarib's projectile began to swirl on itself, targeting her torso.

The menacing pirate snarled at the attacking skypiean, he was testing Queen Orca's patience without even needing to make his usual quips. Shimmering light launched from the vice-admiral's avian foot, ripping through the air at high speed. In that moment, Queen Orca's eyes glistened in response, foreseeing Shaarib's next attack.

The air slash came in fast and the pirate pulled to the side of the attack, letting the searing projectile fly off into the distance. Beastly eyes immediately locked back onto the phoenix-man, already knowing exactly what Shaarib had planned. A chuckle briefly escaped from Queen Orca's throat, it was a power-play to use Fishman Karate...

There was no use trying to counter this attack, Shaarib's power couldn't be matched, it could only be avoided... Queen Orca leapt high into the air once more, avoiding the crackling shockwave (feeling the power tickling them as they barely avoided the attack). Sweat was beginning to bead at the rubbery skin of Queen Orca; they were straining to keep a step ahead of this vicious opponent.

Queen Orca, in the air, placed their fingers at the corners of their mouth and let loose a loud, commanding whistle. Suddenly, the giant sea-snake, Nine, rose from the water. It's enormous form was obscured by the fog, but the mildly-hidden form of the serpentine titan was worthy of admiration. An outrageous roar left the monster's maw, shaking the platform beneath Shaarib and his opponent.

As the pirate leader fell down, the giant sea-snake swept in to bite down on Vice-Admiral Hassan.

Shaarib clenched his teeth so hard, you could fear his jaw would shatter. Since he learned this attack. He was never able to hit anyone with it. They always seemed to dodge this move. This time Shaarib was able to peek the red glint coming from the Queen’s eyes. She was a foresight user, like Song Wuji. This perk didn’t prevent the priest from biting the dust. Raw strength was and will always be the solution. Now that she was in the air, Shaarib was going to get her no matter what. The Vice-Admiral dug his fists in the ground and waited, energy already forming around his fist.

They said the fishmen in the Sunken City were reputed to be proud and loyal. Reputed to never interfere in a fight. It was all a lie, the Leviathans were now intervening. A sea beast came and tried to bite the birdman. Maybe it was too distract him. Shaarib only had one target in sight. If he decided to evade the sea beast, he would concentration and miss his opportunity. He had no choice but sacrifice something for a greater reward. The ground under began to crackle. Unlike with Wuji and Bullet, the concentrated ball of energy was already charged. Shaarib let it all out as the Sea Beast was ready to gobble him. He hadn't been fast enough. The mouth closed on him, and the teeth tore his flame armor and sank into him. Blood came out of his mouth but despite that, Shaarib still hadn't lost his focus. He threw the punch.The punch released an enormous quantity of Armament and Conqueror’s haki upwards. Ready to destroy both the monster and its master.

Like all the time he has done it, Shaarib was sent in the opposite direction. The Marine fell in the room below. His wings were the only thing keeping him from falling in the water.
