Island Wano Kuni

Kaka · Jan 23, 2022

The battle of the titans raged on. While Yonkou Kaidou and to-be Yonkou La Spada engaged in a ferocious clash of fire and ice, to-be Yonkou Gambit had to deal with the two Vice Admirals. Opting for a sneak attack, Gambit shrouded himself in invisibility and got behind Kallavan, aiming to strike him down efficiently like an Assassin. However, Leo foresaw that attack with an ability that only legends were capable of - the ability to see moments into the future. Utilizing great speed, Leo got inbetween Gambit and Kallavan, intercepting the pirate's attack. Gambit's claws dug into Leo's abdomen, though Leo's strength kept the wound to a superficial level. Now holding onto Gambit's hand and arm, Leo's blue flames burned with the power of an inferno, threatening to leave lasting damage and burn scars to the pirate's arm. At the same time, Leo opened up a hole in his intangible body, giving room to Kallavan, who was behind him, to strike Gambit, who was in front of him.

With his body trapped between the two, Leo's eyes glowed momentarily again, anticipating what was about to happen. After all, sandwiched between two attackers, Leo was risking a lot. In his mind's eye, he saw Kallavan attacking with a flaming Tobu Shigan. However, Gambit, too, would unleash a projectile to clash. Leo did not want that clash to happen with him inbetween. As such, taking a step back while pushing Gambit's claws away, Leo used Geppou, sommersaulting above the two men. Under him, Kallavan's and Gambit's attacks would clash.

From there, Leo continued with his former plan, unleashing a powerful vortex of fire that aimed to engulf himself and Gambit. However, Gambit was ready, using his strange weapon to unleash spikes of ice up toward Leo. The vortex of fire would serve as a defensive barrier, and the spikes of ice would clash with it, the two attacks cancelling one another out.

Leo landed to the side, the trio now forming a triangular staredown. Leo had a small wound on his abdomen and some of his strength had gotten sapped away by Gambit's strange powers, leading to some exhaustion. But, nothing a man that could fight for days on end couldn't handle. Gambit, in return, was also just slightly injured, but his Raid Suit had gotten destroyed.

You and your gadgets...

Leo remarked. However, before the trio could engage in further fighting, Kaidou came for them. Charging toward Kallavan, Kaidou faked his first attack and turned toward Leo, unleashing multiple powerful flying slashes with a swipe of his claws. Leo pulled his right arm backward, flaming with an intense fire, and imbuing it with black Busou-shoku no Haki. Then, taking a step forward, Leo hurled his hand forward, it colliding with the incoming flying slashes.

Fire Claw...!

DPR: 120: 7. Town Level + S:+4 + COA: +2 = 13. Small Continent Level

Fire Claw:

Leo transforms his hand into fire before using any variant of Shigan. This allows his Shigan to burn the insides of whatever the fingers stab, as well as unleash a blast of fire that blows the target away after the Shigan connects. Rank S. Severe burn.

Leo's burning claw clashed with Kaidou's flying claws, the clash lasting momentarily before Leo was pushed back, once again landing on the ground. At that point, La Spada, who had been fighting Kaidou on her own momentarily, landed back on the battlefield as well, joining the rest. In a classic staredown, La Spada cackled and called onto the ''children'' to stop ''bickering''. The infighting had to stop, and they had to focus on bringing Kaidou down.

Tell that to the self-proclaimed prince over there.

Leo said, referring to Gambit's sneak attack on Kallavan. Even though the individuals involved were all legends in the making at this point, and powerful men and women that would shape the future of the world, it seemed like deep down, they were all like kids, arguing with one another. The seas were their playground.

@Sea (Akira)

Black Maria, preferring not to fight a battle of strength, had instead turned this into a chess match. Who would outsmart the other and keep their foothold, while the other sunk to the bottom of the depths? That was her primary concern throughout the entire fight, and things were going her way. Akira had allowed her to bring the fight to his vessel, which she managed to set ablaze. The shipwright who had been on that vessel, now jumped ship, landing into the water. What of him, will remain to be seen. As for Black Maria, she was on the retreat. Akira had kicked her, sending her flying off of the burning vessel. She threw her weapon at him to make him deal with it, which bought Black Maria time to start pulling away toward her vessel, while also unleashing a large and strong net from her other hand, to make sure Akira could not make the jump to the other ship.

However, Akira surprised her. He managed to use her large weapon as a foothold and then, with a strong Soru-esque slash, he blitzed through the net, slashed through it, and landed on Black Maria's lower body. He would use Black Maria as a ride all the way up to the safe ship. Once in range, Akira jumped landing onboard while also firing off one more flying slash, cutting Black Maria's web and sending her plummeting down toward the sea. A splash was heard, and the battle was over.

With Akira now onboard, he could eye Shogun Orochi, who started to backpedal away in fear.

D-d-d-damn you Black Maria! You can't do anything right?!

Shogun Orochi shouted, clearly flustered. The previous vessel burned down completely and sunk to the depths. The safe vessel continued on its way back to Onigashima. The one operating the ship had no choice - he was not strong enough to fight Akira off.

@Gambit (Namor)

Jack transformed into the ancient Mammoth, towering in size and presence - a true behemoth, and a man deserving of the title of calamity under Yonkou Kaidou. Ready to fight, Namor harnessed water once again, this time forming it into multiple bullets and imbuing them with black Busou-shoku no Haki. Swinging his hand, Namor fired the bullets toward Jack. Jack rose to his hind two feet and then came slamming down with his front feet, as well as slamming his trunk into the ground. This created a powerful shockwave that crushed the water bullets as they came into range.

Behemoth Crush!

DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + A:+3 + COA: +2 = 11. Small Country Level

From the obscurity caused by his own attack, Jack continued to rush, coming out of the dustcloud right in front of Namor. Black Busou-shoku no Haki covered Jack's entire colossal body, and he aimed to simply run through Namor, both slamming into him, as well as crushing him under his powerful legs.

Behemoth Charge!

Akira’s plan proved to work, as the boy managed to get onto Black Maria’s body after a long time in waiting – and with the woman zipping towards the ship at high speed. Once the boy has gotten in range to the ship, Akira would abandon Black Maria – a single swing of his weapon would simply cause the web to be cut – and Black Maria would fall into the sea as Akira got on-board. It was just Orochi and the helmsman – back to where they were at the start before the interruptions. Whatever plan that Orochi has thought of, it has failed as the Shogun would cower in fear, Akira would leave the Shogun be, this time there’s no reason to force the helmsman into his side – Orochi would die no matter what but there’s no reason for him to kill the Shogun off, considering how the loyal the previous helmsman is, there’s no telling how he would react.

“There better not be any more tricks.”

A death glare would simply be shot at Orochi, but nothing else. Akira was no longer feeling fresh, having wasted energy dealing with Black Maria – the boy has to rest for the moment, he hoped that he would be able to do so for the rest of the journey to prepare for further fighting and killing Orochi as well. The boy would sheathe his weapon, but his caution did not drop – only allowing his body to rest as he eyes Orochi and the helmsman quietly. With how fast this ship comes to Orochi’s rescue – they must not be far from Onigashima now. No words were exchanged further, but even Orochi would felt his time for reckoning to be nearer and nearer.

With how fast this ship comes to Orochi’s rescue – they must not be far from Onigashima now. No words were exchanged further, but even Orochi would felt his time for reckoning to be nearer and nearer.

With Black Maria out of the picture, the vessel continued to sail toward Onigashima. Shogun Orochi was spared for now, sitting aboard the deck a distance away from Akira. Orochi had a grimace on his face, in disbelief that he was in this kind of a situation. His life, at the mercy of a scoundrel. Orochi couldn't get out of his own skin - he continued to look for options, scheming, he had to find a way to get out of there, survive, live, and continue to rule. That was all he knew how to do.

The ship was relatively rocky, with the seas quite rough on this evening. Little did Akira know, all of this was because of the grand battle that was happening on Onigashima. Before long, the skull shaped island would come into view in the distance, and a few minutes later, the vessel would hit the shores. But, their arrival would not be peaceful, for they had arrived to the front entrance of Onigashima, and right there, a fight was already happening.

King, Yonkou Kaidou's second in command and one of the three Calamities, was in his Hybrid form. A powerful fire raged on his back, and a katana was in his hands. His opponent, an older, samurai looking man with a monkey's tail and a Marine Vice Admiral's coat. He, too, was wielding one long katana. The two men rushed toward one another swinging their blades. The blades clashed, raging with black Busou-shoku no Haki. A strong shockwave was born from the clash, blowing a lot of dust away from them.

With a grin on his face, Sasaki spoke.

You just don't give up do you...

He said, before pushing his opponent away. King skid to a stop and spoke.

Speak for yourself, monkey man.

King said, Sasaki smiling. King pushed off of the ground, charging toward Sasaki. His right leg started to blaze with a strong fire, before kicking toward Sasaki. A blazing kick. Sasaki blocked with the flat part of his katana and was blown away, coming to a stop.

That's an interesting technique you have...

Sasaki said, noticing the vessel hitting the shores in the corner of his eyes.

The boat would make its way to Onigashima quietly, with Akira and Orochi in tow. Soon by their peripheral vision, a large skull can now be seen. They have reached the island, and Akira's long arduous journey is now reaching the end for the invasion as well. The last leg of journey is filled with a rocky boat ride, thanks to a battle which Akira has long not witness to it, unknown if even La Spada has made it here yet, or what has transpire in Onigashima. But the boat would made landfall, a loud thud is heard as the ship crashed rather gently towards the shore. They are now at the island itself, and Akira would finally stood up and walked towards the helmsman.

Suddenly, the helmsman's head would roll on to the floor as Akira swung his katana without warning, immediately decapitating the helmsman. It is the signal for Orochi to run. Without hesitation, Akira made sure Orochi has no helmsman to bring him back to the mainland and the boy immediately attacked Orochi, firing a single air blade right towards Orochi vertically, as well as destroying the hull of the ship to split in half along with Orochi. The boy's second objective will be eliminating the Shogun for La Spada. Whether or not the air blade would hit Orochi or kill him, Akira would finally jump to the shores of Onigashima. In front of him are two people in combat - but first once Orochi's death is all but confirmed that he would focus on the next situation evolving in front of him. King and what seems to be a Marine.

The vessel hit the shores, alerting everyone's attentions to one another. King and Sasaki saw the vessel arrive, while those aboard the vessel saw the two men fighting. Akira, the man of the hour, acted quickly. Without a warning, he swung his katana, and the helmsman's head went rolling. Blood erupted from the corpse's neck as it fell to the deck, and the head hit the deck a few seconds later, rolling.

Eek!

Orochi screeched in fear, Akira turning toward him.

K-K-K-King help me!

Orochi said, but King did not react for the moment. Whether it was because he did not care about Shogun Orochi, or because he knew he couldn't get there on time, was anyone's guess. Akira swung his sword, and Shogun Orochi, seeing the attack, transformed into his Hydra form, supposedly to fight back. However, as soon as he transformed, the flying slash was upon him, and Orochi did not make it in time. The flying slash hit him and sent him flying off the deck, while also heavily damaging the ship itself, nigh splitting it in half. Blood came from Orochi as he fell into the sea behind the ship.

Akira's entrance - worthy of his title. An assassin.

Sasaki whistled, impressed.

We got a dangerous one over here. Who are you?

Sasaki asked, unfamiliar with Akira, as one should be with an assassin. King glared, not speaking for now. What would Akira do, and who would be his enemy?

@kakashi19283

The helmsman assassinated, and it was Orochi's turn. Blood spewed everywhere, drenching the Assassin in blood, and yet the Assassin's next target would transform into a Hydra, his target, La Spada would be pleased to know that the Shogun is no more, or at least with Orochi falling into the sea it should've been over. Flower Capital would now be firmly in Spada Pirate's hands with the loss of the governing head.

With Akira on the shore, the two new beings stood, King and a Marine whom simply whistled in response to his arrival. Unfortunately Akira has no idea who is Sasaki, having never met the man before. But King is a different story, La Spada wants the death of Beast Pirates, especially someone like King. And so King is Akira's new target, the Marine for the moment isn't. Sasaki would question the identity of Akira, yet the boy wouldn't reveal his identity, his role in all this especially within the crew. Even King is not aware of Akira's position within the crew beyond being part of the Spada Pirates.

"The person whom will kill King."

Short and simple, but it is enough for both of them to see which side Akira is in the instant. Akira's eyes shot a glare towards King in particular, for the moment his words are spoken, a blast of will emanates from Akira. Subconsciously the boy projected Haoshoku Haki to both King and Sasaki, and to anyone else near him, though the boy does not seem to realize it at the moment. Perhaps given what seems to be simply intimidating move for the boy has shown to be different from what King might have recalled from Flower Capital. The boy wielded his katana, a blood stained blade accompanied by old and rotten wood, he is about to have the fight of his life with King, the right hand man of a Yonko.

Much like the battle above Onigashima, which had the likes of Yonkou Kaidou, Marine Hero Leo, Vice Admiral Kallavan, and the future Yonkous La Spada and Gambit fighting one another, the entrance of Onigashima, too, now had itself a complex battle. Such was the case when multiple factions fought one another, with no clear allies. Sasaki questioned who Akira was and what he was here for. Akira made his stance clear, he was after King's head. But, Sasaki's presence made things more complicated. After all, King was a pirate, Sasaki was a Marine, but Sasaki did not know that Akira was a pirate. That would make Sasaki and Akira allies against King. King did not care, for he had to fight all that were here after Kaidou.

But, what came next was unexpected. Sasaki would not be fighting as a Marine. Sasaki cast his Marine coat aside and sheathed the long katana onto his back, while unsheathing the two normal katanas that was sheathed on his right and left hips, holding each katana in one hand - one in his right, and one in his left.

Leo would be mad at me for doing this, but luckily he's busy.

I will not be fighting you as a man on duty.

You know... I love to fight. I love to get stronger, and meet strong people. So I will fight here as well. Tread carefully, as I will attack either of you.

Sasaki said. King, still holding his long katana with both hands, an inferno burning on his back, entered a stance. His wings flapped, blowing all the dust away in his vicinity. Akira unleashed an unconscious burst of Hao-shoku no Haki. Three men, who would be victorious?

The three way split has been decided; Akira, Sasaki, King. The trio would fight to see who will come out top of the pack. Sasaki would remove his coat, this time presenting himself not as a marine, but as a fighter whom lives for battle and has shown not be in Akira's side either, though not that Akira intended so - a marine is ultimately an enemy of La Spada. The boy would watch to see if he needed to eliminate the marine later on, but King comes first.

In a standstill, with the stoic, silent King and Sasaki's battle ready stance - neither of the trio moved, only watching each other's moves. Like a duel in the wild west in cowboy fashion, silence. However in mere moments the silence broke. Akira would suddenly jump as he started to move his katana in thrusting and slicing like motions, each motion generating an air blade turning the flurry of air blades into one like a storm all aimed towards King, as Akira have kept to his words. Unlike regular air blades one can see how the air blades are angled differently rather than a straight forward attack, with so many airblades, it is enough to make evading the storm of air blades difficult.

Akira is keenly aware of what he have seen of King so far most notably his speed, though any new abilities would need to be experienced, but he didn't expect the attack to work, only to see if King would attack him or if Sasaki would. Thus the boy would make sure to show a little restraint in distance fights.

Name: Autumn's Storm
Rank: A
Description: Similar to Pelting Rain, the user thrust and slice while firing an air blade at each strike, which can be done from a distance away to create a powerful flurry of air blades.

The trio of warriors stood in a standstill, each observing one another. Words had decided who was on whose side, or rather, the fact that no one was on anyone's side. But, those were still just words. Each individual had to be careful for now, to see who would attack who in practice. Akira was the first to strike, unleashing a flurry of stabs and slashes from a distance. Each of the motions unleashed a flying slash, all of them heading toward King.

Karyudon...!

Suddenly, fire erupted from King's sword wielding hand. It spiraled down the length of the blade before converging and forming into a huge fiery dragon. Swinging his sword, King unleashed the dragon, sending it flying toward the flurry of flying slashes. Wisps of black Busou-shoku no Haki tempered the fiery dragon, boosting its overall power and granting it great concussive force. The fiery dragon would collide with the flying slashes, overwhelming them rather quickly and proceeding ahead toward Akira.

If Akira didn't move out of the way, the dragon aimed to engulf him, burning him and crushing him all at once.

As the fiery dragon and the flurry of flying slashes clashed, Sasaki disappeared from sight, moving toward King quickly. He appeared behind him, with his right hand raised high up toward the sky, wielding a katana. Sasaki swung it vertically downward, aiming to slash King. However, King shifted sideways and then elevated his left leg, kicking upward with it. Fire raged around his leg, and the flaming kick, clad with black Busou-shoku no Haki, clashed with the katana, the two attacks equal in power. Sasaki grinned.

Better stay sharp now...!

Akira's attack started the three way duel, his storm of air blades rages towards King with enough ferocity to destroy the area alongside King. However, King have a powerful technique he has yet to show as well, a flaming dragon would erupt from King's hand, crushing the storm of air blades quickly, yet the clash of attacks has diminished the fire dragon's power considerably, as it would head towards Akira at long last. However rather than moving out of the way, Akira merely swung his blade against the attack, cutting it in half as the attack ceased to exist.

Akira's DPR: 9 vs 12
Result: King wins with 3 DPR remaining.

Akira's DPR: 9 vs 3.
Result: Akira wins.

With the attack cut in half, King and Sasaki would engage in close combat, prompting the boy to do the same as well. With King dealing with Sasaki's attack with his leg, Akira took the opportunity to go for the other leg, using a Soru-esque technique the boy immediately closed the gap and with his blade sliding against the ground, Akira swung his katana vertically upwards, now coated in Haki as its blade glowed red as the blade not only generates a shockwave at King point-blank but also destroyed the ground, launching bits of the earth towards King as dust rises from the ground. The blade itself would aim to slide through King's standing leg, the thighs of the man where with enough force to knock the man off-balance, if not cut off an unprepared person's leg.

Name: Autumn's Surprise
Rank: A
Description: Similar to Daishinkan, the user instead of performing an overhead swing with both hands, slides the katana against the ground before performing a vertical upward swing from the ground. As with Daishinkan, it creates a powerful shockwave at the opponent, but at the same time breaks the ground beneath them apart and launch them alongside with the shockwave that not only aims to split the opponent as well, but with the shockwave and the launched chunks of dirt, obscures their vision as well. The user runs past the opponent afterwards. (61 Shuurin, 61 Strength)

Akira's attack started the three way duel, his storm of air blades rages towards King with enough ferocity to destroy the area alongside King. However, King have a powerful technique he has yet to show as well, a flaming dragon would erupt from King's hand, crushing the storm of air blades quickly, yet the clash of attacks has diminished the fire dragon's power considerably, as it would head towards Akira at long last. However rather than moving out of the way, Akira merely swung his blade against the attack, cutting it in half as the attack ceased to exist.

Akira's DPR: 9 vs 12
Result: King wins with 3 DPR remaining.

Akira's DPR: 9 vs 3.
Result: Akira wins.

With the attack cut in half, King and Sasaki would engage in close combat, prompting the boy to do the same as well. With King dealing with Sasaki's attack with his leg, Akira took the opportunity to go for the other leg, using a Soru-esque technique the boy immediately closed the gap and with his blade sliding against the ground, Akira swung his katana vertically upwards, now coated in Haki as its blade glowed red as the blade not only generates a shockwave at King point-blank but also destroyed the ground, launching bits of the earth towards King as dust rises from the ground. The blade itself would aim to slide through King's standing leg, the thighs of the man where with enough force to knock the man off-balance, if not cut off an unprepared person's leg.

Name: Autumn's Surprise
Rank: A
Description: Similar to Daishinkan, the user instead of performing an overhead swing with both hands, slides the katana against the ground before performing a vertical upward swing from the ground. As with Daishinkan, it creates a powerful shockwave at the opponent, but at the same time breaks the ground beneath them apart and launch them alongside with the shockwave that not only aims to split the opponent as well, but with the shockwave and the launched chunks of dirt, obscures their vision as well. The user runs past the opponent afterwards. (61 Shuurin, 61 Strength)

Akira's DPR: 6 + 3(A rank) + 3(CoA) = 12

Akira unleashed a flurry of flying slashes, King unleashed a fiery dragon of Lunarian wrath, and Sasaki got behind King, swinging his katana to cut him down, only for King to block with an infernal kick. A true battle royal, everyone was going for whoever. With Sasaki and King clashing, Akira used this opportunity, using a Soru-esque technique to get closer to King. King pushed with his kicking leg, pushing Sasaki back. When Akira appeared in front of King, both men swung their katanas. Akira swung it upward, while King swung it downward - his katana raging with fire. Concussive fire and shockwave clashed with one another, while the physical katanas themselves struck each other. Strong winds accompanied the clash, Sasaki observing - his loose kimono-esque clothing and long hair fluttering in the strong winds.

King's DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + A:+3 + COA: +2 = 11. Small Country Level

This time, it was Akira's attack that came out on top, pushing King backward and toward Sasaki, who was behind him. However, Sasaki did not attack King, instead rushing around him and past him, toward Akira. Once in front of Akira, Sasaki suddenly accelerated, aiming to blitz past him, while swinging both of his katanas. Sasaki aimed two slashes at Akira. One slash was aimed at Akira's abdomen, while the slash of the other katana mostly aimed to intercept Akira's own sword in case it came up for a block or parry.

Sasaki's DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + B:+2 (from sword ranks) + COA: +2 = 10. Island Level

Kallavan stood ready and firm, eyeing the man who he had just taunted into doing better. Perhaps a bit overzealous on the Admiral's part. But the young warrior felt better than ever before. Despite arguably being the most wounded, the man was in the prime of his life and perhaps continued to grow during this fight. Unmatched potential. It was scary to think where the end goal was for this proud navy officer.

Kallavan who was slightly up into the air would hear the words of Spada, who had also come to harsh reality. Fighting this beast of a man one on one would be a most futile attempt. Even Kallavan with all his might understood it, his fist shook with anger upon this realization. "Damn it all."

The alleged ice spears that were thrown earlier were only directed at Kallavan's peer, Leo. For he was the only one who remained directly in front of its user, Gambit. Kallavan by that point had already moved up into the air to intercept the Bolo Breath. It'd be a large boon for the Admiral because by the time he had let out his anger, Kaido was already upon him. With widened eyes, time slowed down perspectively to Kallavan. Not in reality but due to the shock and all kinds of chemicals that were flowing into him. It'd not enhance his reactions.

The Admirals eyes would slowly move over to the beast that had moved upon it. By a blitz or even the snap of a finger, for so vast was his speed. A swift and deadly claw strike would move over toward Kallavan who sought to parry and afterward counter if able. Unbelievable at the moments before it'd make contact the Yonko would rotate and shift its target. Opting to fire this attack towards Leo while also striking Kallavan with his tail from another angle. "Tekkai!"

Kallavan shouted quickly in reply, only able to bring up his right arm in response while he flexed his entire body.

120: 7. Mountain Level(with Tekkai) vs 8. City Level
Result
DPR 1 below dura: somewhat effective

Kallavan's tekkai held and withstood the blow but barely. If this was an actual technique and not a dismissal like attack, Kallavan would've had more trouble. But for now the young man stood his ground and pushed through the pain. He'd latch out with his left arm, digging his claws deep into Kaido's skin or at least attempting it. The man's toughness seemingly had no limit. Whether he succeeded in harming the Yonko with his actual claws did not matter, it was all, so he could catapult him forward and towards Kaido. Vaulting over the massive tail that stood in between him, Kallavan would kick back both his arms as he spirited both his fists. "Jugon!"

With a flurry of deadly jabs, the Admiral would unleash an assault of punches towards Kaido's back.

"Madara!!"

120: 7. Town Level + A(3) +2 Haki = 12. Large Country Level

With an attack going towards Kaido's back, the path towards the Yonko's front was wide open for anyone to take. The Young admiral was done fooling around. There was one target here, and they should focus their combined effort on it. The consequences of today will be dealt with tomorrow. But for now they had to actually make tomorrow happen. Infighting and bickering would only delay it further.

Akira’s attack strike hits King’s own strike, a vertical motion of downwards and upwards swings would clash, but for Akira, his attack would push King back towards Sasaki, but the Marine rather than taking the opportunity took the opportunity to move in to strike Akira in front – with two swords readied to strike. Sasaki would attempt to blitz past Akira with two slashes aimed, but for the boy with the similar physique, it is easily caught on. As the two slashes came for Akira – the boy moved in to intercept the intercepting blade, though without any Haki Sasaki’s blade would seem to overpower Akira very slightly, even pushing the boy back. The other blade would seem to strike Akira uninhibited, yet the boy is agile enough – with the swing Akira’s free hand would slammed down onto the blade, which is likely swung horizontally –black Haki would coat the entire free hand as Akira push down onto the blade itself before grasping it. Blood would drip upon the palm of the boy, but it seems little to no real damage that could have been done. Yet both actions are done simultaneously for a reason.

Akira’s sword DPR vs Sasaki: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + A (Sword): +3 = 9. Mountain Level vs 10. Island Level
Result: Sasaki wins.

Akira’s DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + CoA: +3 = 9. Mountain Level vs 10. Island Level
Result: Sasaki wins. 1 DPR remaining.

Using the slightly stronger force of Sasaki’s attack through the blade – Akira immediately, pressed down onto the gripped blade, their physical strength is similar, thus it acts as leverage – Akira immediately jump and pivot his own body into the air, moving his legs up and towards Sasaki, the clash of blade with Sasaki’s stronger force would move forward, allowing increased momentum of the other direction which the boy is moving towards, Sasaki. Haki now coats the boy’s left knee as he quickly aims to knee Sasaki by the temple, with enough force to blow someone back with relative ease even with no techniques. The knee attack would bring more momentum as well, allowing Akira to spin about in mid-air to follow up the attack, with the other hand holding on to the sword, Akira immediately swung vertically in front of him, unleashing an air blade at near point blank afterwards, the blade glowing red as black wisp of energies would coat the air blade.

Akira’s Knee DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + CoA: +3 = 9. Mountain Level

Gambit · Jan 27, 2022

Namor and Jack's battle continues, canceling each other's attacks without any difficulty. Albeit both born and raised a Fishman, things are ironically heating up for the two commanders. The former hurdled a barrage of water bullets and cast them all out upon the latter. However, the calamity made a statement. Clear as the seas they came from. Manifesting the ancient creature he is, he charged, along with a powerful shockwave to crush the water bullets.

The prince of Atlantia was about to destroy the surrounding walls in order to take advantage of an open field but Jack came again after the obscurity. Rushing, dust in his wake, Jack equipped his entirety with Black Haki, attempting to body him with an all-out slam.

His eyes widened when he saw how fast the attack was dealt. He didn't have time to cast a counter-attack for he was busy attempting to turn the brick walls into dust. All he could do is to take on the attack with his cursed trident.

The Vampirate commander fought for supremacy against Jack's titanic physique and sturdy blow but after a brief struggle, the calamity claimed the victory of that clash. The prince of the ocean was blown dozens of meters away. When he finally reached the outside of the castle, he poked his trident onto the soil of Onigashima, plowing it before killing the momentum.

"Can't you be any bigger? I admit, that was a good shot.", he commented as the other now fully transformed to his ancient Mammoth form and his deadly blow against him. Luckily, his weapon has the capacity to withstand such, being made from titanium. Black Haki adding toughness to his defense.

Weapon is Mountain Level + COA: 2 = 9. Small Country Level
Normal Damage

"But. Huff Huff.", he continued as he rises again.

"That's your mistake. You just made yourself a bigger target!"

Namor, now near the shore, held his weapon over his head. As his Nepture was held up high, he seemingly invoked a spirit from an unknown realm, incanting a phrase.

"Oh! Mighty Neptune, grant me oh! Lord the spirit of the ocean. Bless me upon the tides for I am its wielder!"

Suddenly, the surrounding waters of the island began to grow their waves. Even more complex than it was ever before. A magical summoning that only the true master of the ocean can harness. With this phenomenon, Namor will bring upon something that will not only send Jack to his pit but catastrophe across the battlefield. The tides rumble, whirlpools began to form. A storm is coming. When Namor swirls his trident, the seabed racks. A tsunami will soon come. But before it come, a portion of the ocean's water came by, wetting the ground. More and more will arrive as the shores are heavily hit by the violent splashes of water. He would once again hurdle a sum of water, concentrating them into the prongs of his weapon. And with the combination of both the trident and Fishman Karate, he unleashed a platoon of water arrows, clad with Black Haki across Jack. All of this is but a diversion.

"Great Arrow Military Shark"

Great Arrow Military Shark: A larger version of a normal Yabusame. The water droplets act more like blunt cannonballs causing dents in the deck of a ship than like arrows.
101-119: 6. City Block Level + A: 3 + COA: 2 = 11. Small Country Level

As this transpires, Jack wasn't aware of what's about to come.

"And now!", he shouted out his lungs as he uses his trident and the leftover waters he is stepping on to lift him up.

"Ocean Master!"

The tsunami that he called forth a while ago has now materialized. A calamity catching another calamity. A battle of ancient hunting and mythical force intensifies.

Ocean Master: Invoke a towering tsunami that can engulf his targets or even cascade it onto the land and create havoc inland.
- DPR S, AOE, requires 81 Mastery in both, 81 Strength
10. Island Level

Meanwhile, at the rooftop, the battle for power and justice escalates even more. A war that would be deemed as one of history's most beautiful fights. Two future admirals, two future emperors, and the king of all beasts fight to the death.

La Spada dealt with Kaido separately while Kallavan took his chance in doing the same against the latter. But when these two separate events occurred, two other figures of past encounters traded blows, canceling each other out. Gambit mustered his claws and dove it into his foe's gut while Leo unleashed a massive heat and fire around him, destroying the prince's battlesuit. They didn't stop, the prince of technology unleashed another trick copied from the ability of his other nemesis after he harnessed enough heat from those exchanges and returned it into a barrage of lances made of ice.

The Vice-Admiral in front of him was one of the strongest men he has ever fought. And perhaps, one of the only few who possesses an ability same as his. A foresight. The marine capitalized on this ability and successfully mitigated the potential havoc Gambit had conferred upon him and his fellow marine. A vortex of flame took off, challenging the counter-element.

The collision of the two elements is birthed to oppose each other but the willpowers that intertwined around these manifestations of brutes and wits called forth a destructive shockwave only enough to tap into their sanities. The two have been separated from their brief entanglement. Two children of opposing factions. Two children of champions blown away by their own attacks.

Gambit found his landing beside Spada, Leo on the other hand landed near Kallavan. A historic face-off. A face-off that is far more epic than any other fight the prince has had before. And at the center of this piece, Kaido!

Prince Landayan Morrow turned back to his hybrid form and if La Spada and Leo paid attention, they will both realize a slight change of appearance from the prince. Before he has black hair but now it's white and quite longer for Gambit has recently achieved - after the first brawl with Kaido - his elder vampire state.

He ripped his coat entirely for it is useless henceforth, having been destroyed by the vice-admiral. The cigarette in his mouth also turned to ashes but luckily he still has a spare at the back holster around his belt. He drew a cigar, placed it in his mouth, and lit it up.

This suit needs an upgrade after all. Damn you, Judge!! You're fired it seems... he spoke inside his head after the first puff.

As he did, he drew something beside the keep of his cigar, five metal cards, and then turned to Spada. "I guess you know by now how tough his body is. I hate to say this, but we need a coordinated attack, Spada. I'll create an opening. Let's use that man as a tool." He added, referring to Kallavan.

As he states this in an almost whisper-like tone to Spada, Kallavan, who seemingly loves to flex his muscles will be going for Kaido once again. A foresight that he envisioned after using his advanced method of observation Haki. He saw how the attack would be futile. Unless of course, Gambit changed what he saw. Hence the five metal cards. If Kaido would be focusing on a stronger attack, Kallavan's attack would hit.

In his hybrid state, Gambit in rapid succession harvested all his bats over Kaido, hovering over in circles before showering half of them, all at once around Kaido, covering his line of sight entirely. He's like inside a massive coffin. At this point, the prince doesn't care less if all his bats would die or not.

After covering Kaido with his bats, he would gesture his hand in order to create a path for Kallavan to cast his multiple hits against Kaido. Slightly opened the coffin so that the admiral could sneak into it.

"NOW!", as he said this the other half of the swarm of bats would turn into a massive fist, only the outermost surface of it could be clad in Haki but in order to magnify its strength, it needed something else. Regardless of the pirate alongside him would do the deed, the giant fist would be launched upon Kaido with such force the moment the Vampirate Prince hammered the ground with his own fist.

La Spada and Gambit roared in sync! Two Lords of Darkness coincide for Desolation of Emperor lies near.

“DRAGON FIST OF THE MORTAL FLAME!!!!!”

Crime and Punishment: Gambit in awakened form gathers a portion of the bats he invoked, forming them like a giant hand upon the target area. At will, it can take the form of a fist, a claw, or a palm before punching/slamming/swiping/slamming it down without remorse to his enemies. AOE is 25 meters in diameter.
- Punch: DPR: S, 100 Strength, 120 DF Mastery

DPR: 13. Small Continent Level

But this is not the only issue Kaido has to deal with. His five less superior metal cards are actually explosives. With all the diversions that occur, Gambit would make it an even more complex situation for Kaido.

The prince threw these five cards a millisecond delayed than the arrival of the bats using his right hand. Regardless of the outcome, Gambit will cast upon his stream of ice towards the legs of the Yonkou, attempting to lock him up a little bit more - using his left arm that wields the Shield of Hades.

"Explosive Cards!, Hands!"

Explosive Poker Cards: 25 inventory points

x5 - DPR: D, 1m diameter 5 pts (Hands)

DPR: 120: 7. Town Level

"Kalasag of the Snow Storm!"

Attack Name: Kalasag of the Snow Storm: Gambit activates his bone shield and unleashes a burst of freezing breeze to the selected vertical line.

DPR: B rank/C-rank AOE and minor freeze for 3 turns, no no charging needed

DPR: 9. Mountain Level + Minor Freeze for 1 turn

He then turned to Leo, nodding. It pains his gut but Gambit insinuates at him to intensify the explosive cards using his lethal logia ability.

At the back of his mind, he utilizes his techs because he needs time to recover from all the attacks he cast a while ago and for his minor wounds to heal. But the effect of his life steal against Leo is starting to kick in. Gambit will soon be restored.

Onigashima Rooftop
The bickering subsided. The children came in line against the Yonko, who stared the new generation down. The King of Beasts saw his Empire crumble. Today, he saw the new generation claiming the seas. The last leg was the Yonko himself, whose power was so overwhelming, the group had to team up.

Landayan Morrow landed next to La Spada. The two exchanged a look of grim. A mixture of respect, hate, admiration, and envy. The Vampirate took charge, turning into another feature of monster and suggesting a combination attack. A rare sight, La Spada acquiesced, explaining next why she agreed, referring to Kaido with that infamous arrogance.

[La Spada] ”Yes… he’s SO talented, I’m reluctant to make the kill.”

A violin strummed a dark song as a chorus to her words. La Spada’s aura had exploded. Her whole body glowed with a dark red light. La Spada’s hair rose up, a dark aura enveloped her. In the palm of her outstretched arm, La Spada held a red flame. Black lightning crackled around it, compressed to a single point. The very air became thick with wickedness. The ground surrounding La Spada did not just freeze, it withered away. An aura of woe. Every light would be snuffed out, only the light of the fiery flame illuminated the area.

The wailing of souls echoed. From the skeletons, souls were devoured by the flame. All souls flying, but-for Queen’s, were lost in the flame. Souls of the primordials came from the Underground, fanning the flame, devouring the others. Leo, specifically, would remember the feeling of the Primordial’s soul (will use in Pangea IC). Suddenly, two red eyes appeared on that dark red flame as if it was a dragon; the Dragon of the Mortal Flame.

[La Spada] “They say tha’ souls of tha’ Primordials carry wanting of millennia. Wanting tha‘ would wither a human’s soul in moments. An Ancient Hate.“

[La Spada] “Care ah’ taste…? Kuhahahahaha!!!”

La Spada’s and the souls of the Primordial’s laughter echoed through the Onigashima. The dragon roared at the height of compression, where armaments haki coated it thick, black lightning spawning. Suddenly, the dragon flew at immense speeds (120), engulfing the Giant Fist of bats Gambit created, combining for an evil attack that would go down in history.

The dragon coated the fist with harrowing malice, seeking Kaido’s soul.

[La Spada] “DRAGON FIST OF THE MORTAL FLAME!!!!!”

The giant Dragon Fist came for Kaido’s front, enough to engulf his body and then some. Enough to crumble a moon. Enough to tear a soul apart. Upon contact, the Dragon Fist would explode in a giant explosion of ice, shockwaves, haki, and impact. The very ground they were standing on would crumble. Queen screamed in pain as his giant skull caved in.

La Spada cared not for the fates of the Marines or Gambit with the remnants of the dual attack. The Grim only sought Kaido’s fall.

Spada DPS: 120: 7. Town Level +5 (S+ Rank) + 3 Armaments = 15. Moon Level

Note: I would argue that Gambit’s attack added to mine makes it Planet Level (up to Sea), but at the very least it’s Moon

Dragon of the Mortal Flame: A more tame version of the Dragon of the Darkness Flame. The user calls the souls of the primordials to the palm of her hand, roaring with anger and the Chill of the Underworld. The force can be used to coat the user’s fists in battle, increasing its power. Once released, a red dragon made of souls is released, freezing and shattering upon impact, creating a powerful explosion.
Requirements: 100 Devil Fruit, 100 Strength
Rank: S+

Uteki had been struck by Kaidou's kanabo and caught off guard. As a result she was knocked unconscious for a short while. Normally a fatal situation to be in during a fight like this. However, Kaidou was everyone's focus. She was left ignored for the duration she was unconscious for. As she slowly came to, she witnessed several intense attacks going off. More importantly she realized she had a chance to attack Kaidou without him expecting it. Mustering up what she could as she regained consciousness, her eyes began to glow as she cleared her mind and began to focus. She was using her Origin of the Swords: Utsuro. She then held out her finger and waited. She waited for the massive dragon fist to clash with Kaidou. When it did she would fire a blood bullet from her fingertip aiming at Kaidou's right shoulder blade. She wasn't expecting it to do major damage but if it distracted him and caused him to be hit by a more intense attack that would be enough. She would do more once she fully recovered.

The knee attack would bring more momentum as well, allowing Akira to spin about in mid-air to follow up the attack, with the other hand holding on to the sword, Akira immediately swung vertically in front of him, unleashing an air blade at near point blank afterwards, the blade glowing red as black wisp of energies would coat the air blade.

Sasaki rushed Akira, slashing with his two swords. One sword aimed to slash at Akira, while the other would intercept Akira's own sword if it came up to block. Akira slammed down onto Sasaki's sword, grabbing it with his bare hand. The hand would bleed, but the damage was minimal, and in return, Akira gained a strategical advantage. Jumping, Akira spun and aimed a spinning knee strike to Sasaki's head. Sasaki grinned, imbuing his forehead with black Busou-shoku no Haki and headbutted Akira's knee. Black Busou-shoku no Haki clashed with black Busou-shoku no Haki, creating a strong wind and shockwave.

Sasaki's DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + D:+0 + COA: +2 = 8. City Level

1 DPR lower than the kick.

A trail of blood came from Sasaki's forehead. However, now the strategical advantage came back to him. With the momentum of Akira's spin stopped due to the collision of his knee with Sasaki's headbutt, as well as the fact that Akira was airborne and with no footing, Sasaki initiated a counterattack. Pulling with the sword that Akira was holding onto, Sasaki pulled Akira in while his right foot came up into a straight front kick, aimed at Akira's stomach. Sasaki aimed to kick Akira away, the black Busou-shoku no Haki in the kick raging.

Sasaki's DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level + D:+0 + COA: +2 = 8. City Level

If Sasaki was successful and Akira was blown away, King would capitalize on the opportunity, appearing behind Sasaki. As soon as King appeared, his right leg was already in motion, aiming a roundhouse kick at Sasaki. Sasaki would lift his arm and imbue it with black Busou-shoku no Haki, blocking blocking the kick, but getting blown away in the process. Skidding across the ground, Sasaki would come to a stop, his forehead still bleeding, while his blocking arm had a bruise. With a smile on his face, he spoke.

Been a while since I've had this much fun...

Sasaki said, reaching for the katana on his back. He put it into his mouth, grabbing it tightly with his teeth, while still wielding the other two katanas with his hands. Imbuing all three with black Busou-shoku no Haki, Sasaki started getting serious.

Let's step it up a notch boys...

Sasaki said, a strong wind blowing through the area.

Kaido #35
@kakashi19283 @QuickZilver708 @Gambit @Ichimonji @tlgRen

Kaido attacks drew to almost an equal clash with Leo, with his own attack slightly coming on top of the man, though with nothing ultimately dealt towards Leo, Kaido already have something else in mind, but before he would do so – two things happened. Kallavan sunk his claws into Kaido’s tail presumably. That is a mistake, Kaido expected Kallavan to use this opportunity to attack him further, after all it seemed to be a dismissal form of attack. Using the Color of Observation almost immediately upon Kallavan’s sinking claws, Kaido was able to perceive Kallavan quicker by merely peering his eye towards one side – despite the man’s withstanding the attack and using his tail to launch himself towards him – Kallavan has fallen into a trap perhaps. Kaido’s serpentine tail is flexible – thanks in part to being an Oriental Dragon having a serpentine shape, this allowed Kaido to coil his tail very quickly around Kallavan, but given how close the Marine is, it is impossible to coil the hands, thus the only available option Kaido could do in this time is catching Kallavan by the waist. The second thing that happened are that bats would swarm around Kaido around the same time which Kallavan would attack, but Kaido already have something for them, though not specifically meant for his bats.

Suddenly the entire top of Onigashima and the bats would be ignited by flames – yet Gambit’s massive amounts of bats that seemly able to enclose Kaido in a prison would only be partially burst into flames, only taking mere seconds before ‘melting’ away. But Gambit’s attack, combined with La Spada would fire a fist of sorts, a combination attack using lightning, bats forming into I don’t fucking know, a dragon-shaped lightning coated bats that still somehow shaped like a fist? Regardless, it is a horrifying attack of unknown proportions, and Kaido could only deal with one attack at the time, or in this case from one side. However, Kaido have long wanted to deal with Kallavan. Kallavan would make the first punch on to Kaido, but Kaido’s entire body would suddenly coat in black, Haki is used to increase his durability. The next connecting punch would continue but the attacks aren’t as effective as he would have thought so, Kaido would be reeled back slightly as he took the hit without any defense.

Kaido's Durability: 8. Island Level + CoA: +3 = 11. Small Continent Level vs Kallavan's DPR: Large Country Level
Result: DPR 1 below dura: somewhat effective

Yet before Kallavan could continue pounding, the tail that would have wrapped around Kallavan’s waist would suddenly move at incredible speed as Kaido twist himself about using the force of Kallavan's punches, pulling Kallavan out of his attack and towards at the incoming attack almost immediately. With incredible physical strength even stronger than Kallavan’s, the Yonko would set Kallavan before him, and in front of the both of them the incoming attack. With the tail gripped hard on the marine, Kallavan should find it unlikely to get away from the tail, and as well as to move away. Kaido has continued coating his body in full Haki, already planning to take the hit.

The laser would hit, whether it would hit Kallavan or not it would be hard to say – though if Kallavan tries to block the attack, he is also blocking for Kaido as well, for he is the meat shield, not only that but Kallavan also has to deal with Gambit’s explosive cards if it would even survive not being melted by the attack as well as the ice attack. But for now, presumably Kaido would be blasted away by the incoming attack, as well as from Uteki’s sudden attack after being presumed to be unconscious, the sword would pierce into the right arm instead, as the sword would not be able to accurately strike onto the shoulder but the damage is not as significant as the combination attack however. Slamming back down upon Onigashima as well as the laser would hit – damaging the island hard in the process, one of the large horn of the skull broke immediately.

Kaido's Durability: 8. Island Level + CoA: +3 = 11. Small Continent Level vs Combination Attack DPR: Planet Level.
Result: DPR 2 or more higher than dura: super effective

Kaido's Durability vs Uteki's DPR: Small Continent Level
Result: DPR equal to dura: normal damage

Dust would obscure the area where Kaido would be – but surrounding everyone, flames continues to fan throughout Onigashima’s top – the air getting hotter. Suddenly, a thundering boom could be heard in the sky. From the smoke however, a Bolo Breath fired out from where Kaido should be, with Gambit and La Spada together – the breath enhanced with invisible Haki. And suddenly the long serpentine dragon form would return as Kaido flew straight up into the sky, scales rather damaged, no longer possessing the same lustrous blue scales that he would have, some are chipped, his body bleed – smoked. The attack dealt a pretty hefty damage to Kaido. But it was not enough. This was the first time Kaido took on a significant damage since the fight between the five started. And rather than feeling cornered, the Yonko suddenly laughed – despite the damage he took.

Kaido's DPR: 8. Island Level + Invisible Haki: +2 + S+: +5 = 15. Moon Level

“WORORORORO! Finally! I hope this is not the strongest attack you have mustered! SHOW ME MORE POWER! WORORORORORO!”

Kaido would suddenly opened his mouth, blowing large amount of air towards essentially everyone including Uteki, his attention now to divide back into five people. The air he blew would quickly turn into large amount of air blades, enhancing his attack further with invisible Haki. He however was not expecting anything to hit – Kaido was serious the whole time, but after taking such a damage, his blood boiled – not in anger however, his blood boiled in excitement.

Kaifu (壊風 Kaifū?, literally meaning "Demolishing Wind"): An attack where Kaidou blows strongly, thereby creating powerful, crescent wind blades that can easily cut through solid stone as well as human bodies.

Kaido's DPR: 8. Island Level + Invisible Haki: +2 + S: +4 =14. Large Continent Level

Akira kneed Sasaki by his forehead as the man would defend himself quickly using the easiest solution. This surprised Akira – for the boy widen his eyes for a little, despite covered in black bandages, his facial expression at this point was easily read. The boy indeed is taken aback a little, but his reactions are similarly fast when Sasaki would pull his sword back to try and off-balance the boy whilst in mid-air, and so the boy did. However, as Akira has no foothold to stabilize himself from the action, Sasaki lifted his leg to attempt to kick Akira – which inadvertently created a foothold, his leg. This would force Akira to use his other free leg to step down onto Sasaki’s shin, creating the foothold needed for Akira to jump back, releasing his grip onto Sasaki’s blade. The force of the kick was stronger than Akira, despite not hitting the boy – would pushed him away.

Akira's DPR: 101-119: 6. City Block Level vs Sasaki's
Result: Sasaki wins. 2 DPR remaining, pushes Akira back.

His hand bleed a little, even the boy isn’t free from damage – his leg felt tingly from the force coming from the kicking motion – but ultimately he wasn’t really all that hurt. King however, took the opportunity to attack Sasaki further. He wasn’t sure if King ever took damage, but King is his focus, not Sasaki. And true to that – Akira did not seem to be interested in attacking Sasaki for the time being, though he has an inkling that this idea will very soon change.

“You. What’s your name?”

Akira would finally spoke, his eyes gazed upon Sasaki as he withdrew three katanas, all imbued in black, an indication which Haki is being used. The man is pretty annoying to a certain point. But he seemed to enjoyed battle so his intentions are more simple. The man in front of him would rather not lose a potentially enjoyable battle over taking out someone first. And it is not like Akira doesn’t understand the old man. He does in fact. Even if his face doesn’t show it – Akira wouldn’t turn down a duel, nor a good fight. But his role as the Shadow takes priority now, for he needs King to be dead. Whether Sasaki would entertain his question, Akira would suddenly change his grip onto his katana, turning it into a reverse grip on one hand, and the other would held the blade normally. In a strange stance Akira would rush towards King once more.

Several whips of energy would appear from the sword in reverse grip, the blade continues to glow red as black whips of air blades are formed, Akira would move his sword continuously as the air blade whips around behind him. In a single step as he moved even closer to King, Akira’s speed suddenly propelled as if a Soru-esque technique is used. The air blades whip about erratically around him as he aims to hit King towards his full body, this attack also serves as a sort of barrier, making it hard to hit Akira through the deceptively hard whip-like movements of the air blade.

Name: Autumn’s Petal
Rank: A
Description: Wielding the blade with one hand in reverse grip and the other hand normally, the user moves his hands continuously whilst generating air blades which creates whip-like air blades around him, creating a powerful attack that can be deceptively difficult to dodge.

Kallavan had unleashed his onslaught of punches in a rapid manner towards Kaido. However, the man would tank it without much of a hassle. The juggernauts that he was allowed him to do such a feat. It was a small thing compared as to what would happen in but a few short notices. But to Kallavan at this point it'd begin to frustrate him even further. To make matters worse, Kaido's tail would coil around the marine, holding him tightly in one place. Kallavan would look around himself as he struggled to break free from this prison. Kaido's strength beyond what the young marine could muster at this point in time. The bats that flew all around him and the Yonko would suddenly burst into flames, being annihilated before they could even properly contain the beast that Kaido was.

Kallavan would punch, slam and elbow the tail that held him with as much force as he could muster. Yet it would not yield and to make this already bleak situation even more grim was a hell spawn that stared straight at them. It gave him a feeling unlike anything he had experienced before. A quick glance would make the vice-admiral realize the predicament he was already in. For he knew instinctively what would be blasted upon him in but mere moments.

With a quick swing, Kallavan would be brought up front. Kaido was effectively using the marine as a meat shield to whatever it was that was headed towards the two men. "What in the blazes?!" Kallavan said as he couldn't believe what he was seeing. A dragon created out of pure malice, souls intertwined with something else. Something Kallavan didn't recognize, but their reaction to one another would bring forth a dragon straight out of myths. Something even Kaido himself didn't compare to. This one came straight out of hell. And logically Gambit would follow up with an attack of his own, the two would mix together to create an attack that'd logically hurt Kaido. If Kallavan interfered in this attack, it'd harm their efforts severely. But could the young marine tank through something like this? The dragon fist would come flying towards both him and Kaido at speeds unimaginable. The marine would laugh in the face of adversity and braced himself for torment.

"Hahahaha! COME, HELL SPAWN, GIVE IT YOUR ALL!"

Kallavan said, as almost immediately afterwards the dragon would engulf both him and Kaido in a spectacular fashion. The two men after having tanked the full force of the mortal flame would be sent flying at breakneck speeds. Like two comets, the men would crash down upon Onigashima in different locations.

DPR 2 or more higher than dura: 'Ultra' super effective.

Suddenly the entire Island would roar and shake with the dust not yet settled, a large fire beam was launched towards Gambit and Spada. Even with all their might combined, they seemingly were unable to put the nail in Kaido's coffin. The beast afterwards would shift into his full dragon form and escaped to the skies. He was damaged, but not to the extent many of the pirates hoped. Still from within the dust and smoke there was no sign of Kallavan. Had the dragon flame reaped someone else instead of Kaido?

Up in the air, Kaido would state his desire. He hoped this wasn't all the pirates had to offer, as they were finally starting to entertain the man. He was damaged, but far beyond kneeling over. The weather was also turning full on storm like, harsh gales, scorching heath and the lingering lightning from the mortal flame. It was enough to end a lesser man.

"Rankyaku." A beaten voice spoke off in the distance, finally beating the surrounding silence, air blade against air blade. The two would meet and eventually defeat one another.

The smoke at Kallavan's point of impact had finally settled, and the man had to drag himself upward. His body beaten, bruised, scorched, all in all the marine was mangled. Only otherworldly healing would perhaps reduce these wounds to mere scars in the future. But the Vice-Admiral stood, more or less alive. His upper body was devoid of a shirt and his trousers were devoid of a right leg. It was safe to say that this was the harshest Kallavan had ever been wounded in battle. And there wasn't more he could tank at this point in time. Another hit like that, and he'd surely lose the tug of war between himself and his body. He was running on sheer will and determination right now. Kallavan would also spit some blood off to the ground beside him.

The marine off in the distance stood alone as he looked at the night sky, Kaido still set in his mind. Kallavan did not speak, for his face spoke a thousand words. He'd glare at his adversary, vowing that he'd return the damage he had received to Kaido tenfold.
