Serious: All out war near Shabondy, the clash of ideas and dreams and justice collide (Closed and historically, the longest role play story thread setting a record of more than 500 posts for this site, a first ever, THANK YOU!!!!!))

Young Steel let out a series of snickers while watching Talitha and Gael fight it out and decided that he should "repay" the woman deciding it was the best thing for him to do and then try to get something worth while.

"A'ight then... Lets see how the man likes my sword driven inside of him.." He said with a wide smile smeared across his face.

Trenton quickly leaped up from where he was seated while drawing out his sword with gleamed brightly from the rays of sunlight which seeped through the clouds. "Steel Blitz!" He shouted while rapidly flashing his katana at Gael, attempting to land a few slashes with his katana blade, maybe this would distract him and stop the attack of Talitha.

In the battle field there were mega clashes, sand was being blown up in the middle of it all.Nishki used soru and rankyaku and was immediately countered with a sand wall. Nishki dashed foward as Anubis created 3 desert spadas and aimed it at Nishki. Nishki turns into a pheonix while running and uses grand pheonix fireworks to counter the sand. One desert spada gets through and nearly slices through Nishki's wing. Nishki flies above skillfully and agilely , in truth Anubis was the worst match up for any fire based user.Nishki dived down and Anubis prepared another Desert spada (sand blade) to bring down Nishki. A huge clash in the middle was noticeable as there was a big explosion.

Martello is livid with anger at the pirate"you son of a bitch!!!, Ti'ar we are bringing this bastard down!!!"

At the mansion the hooded figure simply sat at his chair and saw James "How may i help you lad?"

As the battle goes on, Wally walks on a hill that allows him a full view of the battlefield "Hmmm ... the sand pirate.." he grins.
More explosions occur, and from the smoke Suigo jumps next to Wally. Wally orders him "Find Tiberius and team up."
"Roger" Suigo responds.
"Bulk punk !" Sabres dashes and hits War in the stomach knocking him away "Biiihhahahaha, logia or not, if you dont have the speed to retaliate I dont care !"
Clark is fighting vs VA Skilo.

(OOC The phoenix's flames are different from the normal flames, they dont spread or burn, but instead constantly heal the user & also ... a lot of stuff happened, time to get back into the battle lol)

Tiberius was busy cutting down enemies, pirates came from all angles and he sliced them down with his great cleaver. He shakes his head "How disappointing......."

((Leon hurry up and get down here))

Suigo appears next to Tiberius, apparently having used Soru to do so. "Thats a pain, but the captain want us to team up .." he says.
The large spiked ball smacks on Skilo and sends him flying away "Vice Admiral Skilo !" a marine calls.
"He defeated a Vice Admiral, whats with that pirate ?" another says.
"Oh God, its the "Gliding Hedgehog" Clark !" another shoots and then gets hit by the spiked ball.
Clark then faces off Tiberius and Suigo, followed by some "above- grunt" leveled pirates.
"Shall we begin ?" Suigo says to Tiberius.

Tiberius laughs and adjusted his mask "God what a strange day i have had......" He flexes his saints hand "Lets go..." Tiberius uses soru heading to the side and aims a rankyaku at Clark.

One of the pirates was trying to strike Zuro from behind, but he hadn't let his guard down. He turned around and unsheathed his katana, killing the pirate in the same swift motion. He was done with the marines with critical wounds anyway. He set into a stance, and started killing any pirates who came too close. He was fighting on a human level, but still far superior to the average pirate. He decided to keep his special weapons inside his coat for a real adversary.
(OOC: Anyone want to fight Zuro?)

Clark twists his hands holding the chain and then pulls, making the ball spin around violently and collides with the Rankyaru, easily rivalling it. After that, he jumps high and draws the ball towards him.
A pirate, apparently one of the stronger ones, since he managed to visually keep up with Tiberius, fires at with with a bazooka.
Suigo attacks the group of the other pirates, slashing one down but the next one manages to collide blades with him "Its good to see that there are some here that can at least break us a sweat." Suigo calmly states.

Suddenly all the metal heads towards one area , on the floor was a man sitting on the floor "Sheesh, why the hell should we enter this battle?"

(PRESENTATION BOX)
(Ken Dojima 50,000,000 beli)

He sighed and then said "Push" All the metal begins flying towards Zuro in order to slam and destroy him.

(Is this a PC or NPC?)
Zuro's attention was drawn to the swirling cloud of metal coming at him, and he quickly pulled out the big guns. In his right hand was a metallic half-shell. He extended his hand as the cloud neared and pressed a button. An almost hemispherical explosion blew outwards from the shell, halting the metal and bringing it to ground.

((NPC, i use them for opponents , there are two brothers, but only one is here, the other will be used to fight someone else, i created their smaller brother Killua, he is in Vladmirs crew. Ken knows the same style as Killua))

Ken laughed and took out his sake bottle "You are skilled, how about we sit down and have a drink..." He pours the sake in his cup and drinks while the war is happening around him.

"A cup of sake? Here?" Zuro walks closer "We are on the opposing sides of this engagement. And there is a battle." Zuro was rarely in the position as the voice of common sense. To emphasize his point, and defend himself. He cut down a pirate lunging at him.

Sabres hits War again. *Shit, this monster was not that strong before ...*
There is some explanation on Sabres being able to bypass logias. Due to his great size and speed, he is capable of "stunning" his opponent, and blocks the "reflex" most logias have.

Clark spins the chain around Tiberius in an attempt to tie him up.
Meanwhile another pirate attacks Suigo who counters and points out that this guy is odd.
*Presentation box: Captain of the Azure pirates, "Ruby" Jones Bart, bounty: 96,000,000 Belli*
Jones: Not bad, marine dog !
He uses a large axe-looking sword.

((lol, that makes no sense to me, but it doesnt matter since, a) logias cant turn into their element here anyway, and b) if he touches lava, his hand will melt.))

War dashes back after setting the lava wall. He moves back a few steps "You guys are always meddling in our business, you killed our leader, so now we got to run around doing errands for others, at least till Anubis showed up and offered us a chance at redemption...." Death moves silently while War is talking, this time, she cuts the torso of Sabres , but it wasnt too deep, still it was enough to cause bleeding. Death then jumped back to Wars side, "you will see what true death means....."

Ken laughed quietly at this comment "So? Are we not civilised beings? do we need to continuously fight ? What is it you desire here my friend?" he drinks more sake, a marins tried to sneak up behind him, but he just held his hand up and siad "Push" sending the marine flying.

(Its the same logic of how Jozu hit Croc, untill we confirm he is a Haki user so yeah and I know, I just wanna add some "coolness")

Sabres gets angry "Dammit with that stupid girl !" He jumps high "GET READY !" he shoots.

War gets alarmed "We should move now!!"

Death and War jump to the side to avoid the shot and move far apart, but Death was smiling, she landed down, soon enough the effects would begin.

Out of the corner of her eye, Talitha could see that pirate they met at the island dash forward to attack her opponent.
She growled a little. What did he think he was doing, helping her? She never asked for his help! He should be fighting the marines right now!
Instead of jumping away from the vines, she jumped onto one, but only for a second, then she leaped towards the man and his little pet. Basically, it was two against two, but she really wanted to see them block attacks from both sides.



"He was here just a moment ago! I swear, how can a guy disappear that fast? It's impossible!"
Ajax was shouting at the poor man he was holding up by the collar right now. Said man, of course, didn't know what he was talking about, or why he had come running out of nowhere all of a sudden and attacked him.
The question really had been rethorical, which the man noticed as he landed on the ground all of a sudden and watched the strange guy run off again, shouting.
"Major Payne! For gods sake, where are you?"
He had to be somewhere. What was it with this battlefield?

"Does this seem civilized to you?" Zuro was still walking, slaying another pirate from the left. "I am here on behalf of my captain. I have no further reason."

Ken drinks his sake "i see, a loyal man to the end, following his captain......, you see this is why i struggle to understand you people, you work for the government as their pets they use to hunt normal pirates.... are you really ok being a government pet?"

"Have you seen how efficient the government is at catching pirates? The Yonkou runs effectively unchecked. All we have to lose is a privilege we earned in one campaign." Zuro sits down to the opposite side from Ken. "In the long run, the government can do nothing to enforce us."

Ken laughs "Times are changing , there is a new yonkou on the rise, he will soon be revealed , and i intend to side with him, he is possibly one of the most influential figures currently, he will be the one to lead us....."

"But we have chosen different paths and.." Zuro picks up the blade and slashes it at Ken before following up with a blast from the half shell. "..Cannot coexist in a battle."

Ken holds up his hand and says "Push" Zuro is thrown backwards. Ken simply smiles weakly "You do realise, this fight, will only consist of that happening to you dont you? all that metal on your body makes it easy for me...."
