10 ships all in a straight line, amongst them was 10 Vice Admiral each commanders of their own vessels. Though there was an extra Vice Admiral, an observer. On one ship which was smaller than the others had a man donning a suit as the waves splashed upon his rocking ship staring at Thriller Bark.
The attack was coming though each of the veteran and rookie newly appointed Vice Admirals each of them all had one thing in mind. This would have been better and more possible should a Admiral been within the ranks of this operation Odysseus.
Buster call was in action as they creeped closer, the elderly Vice Admiral that was just simply observing had a sweat trickle down the side of his face. ' La Spada will decimate us, we might have the numbers but she's no easy simple feat ' he'd think still nervous of the entire ordeal.
Tension was in the air as the approached the walls that was the outer wall as the other ships all surrounded thriller bark. All the Vice Admirals had one thing in mind to climb the wall and commence the Buster Call bombardment in a set time. All of them jumped as the elder Vice Admiral Dino stayed mute sat still upon his ship.
@Beerbottle is able to use "Shusui" from this point onwards.
Sorry Ichi and Beer, haven't made any stats for any of the Vice Admirals. As they will all vary, which is a pain to do. I'll be working on them, with creating some custom techniques.
A cough echoed in the empty room at the top of the tower, chest heaving as I tried to suck in a breath afterward. The wound La Spada had given me burned, but even more than that, the problem was exhaustion. My body wasn't willing to allocate the energy necessary for healing myself. What I needed was time to pull myself together. Time, however, what running out. Help was on its way, though, as something slithered up my back. As I barely managed to push myself upward a little, a leech three feet long came around to my front and bit me. Its fangs pierced my tender skin just inside my wound. The pain was excruciating, and a spasm ran through me as I flopped onto my back, too distracted to remove the creature feasting on me.
It simply slithered away when it had drunk its fill, looking for our captain. I had not noticed that the leech had also given me an injection with healing properties, but it didn't take long before the blood from my wound started to slow to a trickle. I lay dazed for a while, concentrating on breathing as changes were happening in my body.
I was healing, which would do nothing for the exhaustion I had felt, but even that was receding now.
Pushing myself to my feet, I still felt the raw wound, but at least the blood seemed to have stopped, it would take longer for it to close up, however, and I would keep a bright red scar for the rest of my life. Then, picking up the blade Shushui, I was rocked to my core as a pulse of power flowed through me. The sword looked no different from the outside, but something had changed as if the blade had been awakened. A slow grin spread across my face at the prospect of new heights of power. Why couldn't this have happened earlier? What were the conditions? Maybe the death of Moria, I guess. These were my grumbling thoughts as I stood alone in the tower.
Staggering to the hole in the wall, I stood looking out across the whole of Thriller Bark; the sight that greeted me brought immeasurable pleasure, and I felt almost giddy. In the distance, I could see a column of Marine ships making their way toward us. Since I was still hurt, there was only one way to get down without significantly breaking myself, the chains connected from the tower to the wall around the island.
I started to traverse the vast distance, picking up speed as the wound continued healing.
The Dock
Thriller Bark had fallen. As the Spada Pirates took another cornerstone of the World Government, a Royal Shichibukai, repercussions came forth. Ten ships lined up in the shores of Thriller Bark. Only one came. The infamous La Spada greeted them, with that renowned confidence. There was only need of one. The unspoken one.
The Grim Reaper walked right to the water from the mouth entrance, the water freezing beneath her every step as she ominously walked on water and towards the ships in that area. The Empress approached the two ships in the South. The rest would be next, held back for now by the walls.
The Grim Reaper was to feed.
[La Spada] “Hidden Poison Mist…”
Suddenly, the water surrounding the South took a turn. A heavy mist enveloped the two ships directly in the South. The Empress’ signature Hidden Mist technique, with ocean water being the direct source, the mist was quick, heavy, and unrelenting. Given it came off her soul, it would seem as the Grim’s “voice” was all around the mist, a truly ghastly presentment of fear. There was no escape.
Hidden inside the mist was a poison smog, a poison cloud. A terrifying combination, Nemesis exerted a poison cloud within the mist, cloaked by it, both ships engulfed by them. The result would be robbing the eyesight, strength, and senses of those who bore it, creating mirages and semblance of death all around.
[La Spada] “KUHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!”
A mischevious voice echoed from all around the mist, cackling with a curt desire to devour one’s soul. The poison mist could set in panic, as not only were people’s senses hacked, but the feeling of helplessness would be real. Where would death come from? How long? The rat-tat-tat of the Grim Reaper beckons. A truly ghastly experience, worthy of that which was dubbed the Grim Reaper. Spada could have just killed them - she needed the fear of their souls first. Death was coming.
Suddenly, a vertical slash came towards the ships through the middle. La Spada had done two powerful quick slashes with her weakest Sandai Kitetsu, moving within the mist with the dexterity only the weight of bones could allow, one after another. The mist would cloak the attack. The poison could disable the hunted. The soul cloaking her “voice”. The attack was strong enough to very easily sever the two ships in half, leaving the remnants to drown in poisoned waters.
Welcome to Doom.

Ships covered Thriller Bark at all directions, all marine officers were stationed. Operation Odysseus had begun, with Spada as their set target. Though none could foresee that their very target would come to them. This alerted mainly the Vice Admiral who felt a shudder in their spines.
Mist covered the area vigorously at an alarming rate, the marines were unable to see one another despite standing few meters from one another. Alarm weren't rung due to the mist blinding the soldiers to see where their hands could be. Screams, shouting and fear was spread from the ships of the South.

I panted as I ran, exhaustion still prevalent but getting better with every step. I had been far too reckless going up against the inhabitants of Thriller Bark; there had only been a few that posed a real danger to me, but I had chosen to eradicate them with extreme prejudice. As a result, I had tapped into my reserves of power far more than necessary and looked like a fool in front of La Spada, and showing weakness in front of her was wrought with peril. I still felt her malice on my body; she had treated me the same as I had treated the Spidermonkey on this island.
But would I change on this island? Probably not, for my mind was a hellscape of repressed memories that had been supplanted with fake ones, only for the hate and insanity to have no clear direction. Here and now, however, there was killing to be done. I shot down the massive chain going from the tower towards the direction of Spada, for it was plain to see that something was happening. Purple fog reigned there, and I had no doubt that was where the fighting would be fiercest.
Surrounding Waters
The fog and poison smog brought with ur Death, both figuratively and literally. La Spada had been set loose on the Buster Call. Poison masked her, her immune to its effect, being all bones and no organs or skin. To others, it would be perilous. Two powerful slashes cut down two of the ten Warships, taking with it the ones aboard. The rest to die in the poisoned waters.
One survived, a Vice-Admiral, appearing amidst the fog and attacking The Grim, using a Rokushiki technique.
La Spada’s eyes glowed red. She turned to the man inside the fog and raised her left hooked arm In a block. The Jushigan collided with the hook, making the water below La Spada quiver. However, the Grim moved not an inch. The man would feel his haki, his spirit, being absorbed by the hook; Aegis Shield from Lemnos. Not only was the attack stopped dead, La Spada now had him in her grips, her boney Lunarian tail slithering to grab his torso.
[La Spada] “Don’t worry. It won’t hurt too bad. Really. Death is mah’ specialty.”
With a maddening chuckle, La Spada used her hooked hand in an uppercut, using the stolen haki, aiming to stab the vice-admiral morbidly through his abdomen. If successful, the hook would come out the other side, coated in Doku poison. Suddenly, La Spada’s hook shook. She summoned the Underworld’s chill, aiming to freeze the man’s inside, pouring more and more until his body would theoretically rupture, creating a implosion of the victim’s body.
Merciless.
Assuming, but not deciding, La Spada was successful, the Empress would lick the blood from her hook, eyes bloodshot and mad. The woman took slow and steady steps, still freezing the water as she ominously walked on it. La Spada’s likeness came out of the poison fog, smoking that infamous cigar. The poison smog followed her, trailing behind, as the Grim Reapee sought the next ship.
The Grim Reaper sheathed her sword and raised her right palm. On it, spirit and soul power converged, pulsating. It was as if Spada was calling souls to her palm, wailing with malevolent will. 8 ships left to devour.

The other vice admirals were stationed, none but one knew the fate of the two vice admirals who met their hands. Dino felt a sudden chill, a bad feeling was enveloping him. " Get the other Vice Admirals to stand down and withdraw, do it now or we lose them all here " ordering his men to issue plea of withdraw to the other marines stationed around the island. The men scurried around as they pulled out the den den mushi's that rung on the other ships as the message was now spread. The other Vice Admirals all found it odd why as they all pulled a direct line with Dino.
" This is Dino, as all of your superior Vice Admiral. Issues you all to withdrawal NOW! or we shall meet our ends here " tension was in the air as the Vice Admirals all heeded this call as a means of putting their best interest at heart. They all had eyes enlarged then issue the same command.
They all had to swallow their spit, and take heed as their lives was far more valuable. Besides there was other things going on in the world that was far more alarming.
The ships began to move away from Thriller Bark as the loss of two vice admirals was still not recorded, only Dino knew. A strange feeling but they was met with the avatar of malice. Thus La Spada, Spada Pirates and Kyria had officially taken Thriller Bark under their arms and reign.
As I arrived at the wall surrounding the giant ship camouflaged as an island, I could see the devastating blow my captain had dealt the Marines. My hand gripped the handle of my sword so tightly my knuckles whitened, but it was not meant to be, for I could see my enemies turn tail and run. La Spada had been far too terrifying an opponent to take on, and with their egos shattered, they fled for all it was worth.
"Cowards"! My voice rang out in the now quiet landscape, I felt cheated of my prey, and my gaze swirled around until it locked onto the bony woman standing far from me. A battle of wills ensued, a part of me wanted to attack her for depriving me of fresh victims, but a tiny seed of fear had been planted in me. The terror that was La Spada had its claws clutched around my heart, and I did not want round two to commence so soon.
Thankfully, a distraction was coming my way, for out of the fog, I could see a ship coming toward the wall where I stood. The Phlegethon glided through the water with its terrifying visage like something otherworldly, its black sails promising doom. My fake memories told me all I needed to know; this was my ship in this world; I was its captain as I sailed under the Spada Pirates flag. I knew who I would find aboard this vessel, and I did not hesitate as I jumped from the walls around Thriller Bark and crashed into the deck. Rising to my feet and dusting myself off, I glanced at Charon and barked, "we're leaving," before making my way below deck to the fiery river in the bowels.
This place had given me the treasures worth taking, a sword that I felt would aid me more than any blade I had owned previously. And a Devil fruit that would boost my coffers when I found someone to take it off my hands. However, this fascinating fruit did not interest me. I was terrifying enough without having to play with the darkness. For my great shadow would cover the seas soon on its own.
Surrounding Waters
Haunting. From the poison smog came Death herself. The malevolent spirit was so foul, the waters parted around her. The souls of those fallen were revived by the Grim Reapers power, swimming to her in the water like the River Styx. The eyes of the Spada Captain burned with desire, lit by the Primordial flame that fanned her open palm, wanting foul.
In the face of such evil, the Marines retreated, attempting to leave the area with haste. The Grim stood on the water, her eyes bloodshot. From her arm and from Nemesis, came a hydra, mixed with terrible power of soul, poison, ice, and coated in haki. The hydra would be able to catch up to the last ship, taking one additional ship. It later went to the waters, making the surroundings of Thriller Bark poisoned waters.
The rest escaped, to tell the tale of the Grim Reaper.
[La Spada] “From here forth, Impel Down shall be the Spada Pirates HQ… the place to spread terror.”
[La Spada] “Kuhahahahahahaha!”
With those words, the island ship would be christened. Thriller bark would be the Spada Pirates’s headquarters. As the Plegethon left, La Spada re-entered the Island ship. Preparations would start to truly turn Thriller Bark into a wandering Underworld.
