Serious: The Anubis Pirates attempt to take over Little Garden (Open to Maxulus , Best , Johan and Marines)

Knowing that there were not many options , Maxulus decided that he would have to go with the best of his attacks. His attacks. He yells at his friends and Ranyx who were around "What are you doing here?! Get away!" Then , the two half-destroyed clones of the Multibrella begin levitating and enter his body , as well as his Multibrella. Maxulus thinks of the last time he used this technique in Enies Lobby. Although it did not do anything at all , he still managed to buy some time for his comrades. He barely managed to survive from it but he did not care. He was ready to use the Explosion.

Ranyx sighed. Self absorbed little punk. "Don't be stupid, kid. Coal's Fortress is too dense and powerful to be taken out by something like that. What needs to happen... is a tornado." He got up, exhaled, and did a handstand. He began spinning on his hands, spinning like a top, creating a circular Rankyaku, layering it into a taller and higher speed razor wind gust. Once he was satisfied, it had grown into the equivalent of a real tornado. Ranyx set it off, trying to blast the walls away.

Coal then used smoke chains to subdue Ranyx in place before he could fully do the tornado attack "You got the right idea... but im not going to simply let you do as you like......" He then sent more smoke scythes at Max. Bierwick was really impressed. Coal was fighting all these powers by himself, he was amazing enough to be promoted.

Maxulus gets angrier and angrier over the time. It looked like a Rankyaku was good enough to stop the smoke fortress. By watching at Coal's scythes coming at him , he stops his Explosion attack right before it is performed and he says "I guess all I had to do was to use a Rankyaku , huh? Okay then... Umbrella Expand!" Then , his body parts open and he turns into his giant form for the last time. He yells "You will definetely won't survive that! RANKYAKU!!!" and he launches a huge Rankyaku towards Coal and the scythes that were coming towards him , aiming to stop the fortress and make Coal take some serious damage.

Coal was shaking his head "Seriously... all that show from that guy down there and this fool just doesnt understand..... no mere normal rankyaku will work....... Smoke layer...." About 7 layers of thick smoke appear in front of Coal and the rankyaku that Max launches does not make it past the 3rd layer. "This is how dense thick smoke is,.... if i was being blunt, its like bog of steel....." Ranyx had the right idea.... but an attack like that takes time... which is where the strength of Smoke fortress comes into play..... a area with nothing but smoke.... you all covered in it..... my ultimate domain....... so to build up an attack like that...... to destroy the fortress would be impossible because i can stop you, face your fates and surrender....."

"I guess that there has to be a way to defeat you! Nobody is invincible!" is what Maxulus says to the commodore who seemed to be eager to fight. Maxulus was at a clear disadvantage. He was unable to hit the marine easily and the smoke was so dense that he could not move that easily. He turns his head towards Ranyx and the rest of the Anubis Pirates and he whispers "Guys... I will try and buy us some time until you can find a way to get rid of this smoke!" Then , he looks at Ranyx with a smile on his face and he clenches his fist. He would not lose this battle. He had already lost many battles before , but this one was a battle of pride. He was the person with the highest rank of the Anubis Pirates on Little Garden and he could not think of losing to a mere marine like Coal. He had to use his full power and defeat Coal , even if that costed him his own life.
He never had the chance before to feel the way he felt after he joined the Anubis Pirates. He found a family and somebody to work for. He did not want to search for his father anymore. He got the message that no matter what he did he would be unable to find him. He , now , had his captain , Anubis , his crewmates Satoshi , Ryan , Best , Johan and the others and he also had his brother , Maximus. For the very first time in his life he got that angry because he thought for a brief second that he would be unable to meet all those people again , but he seemed to be calm at the same time. He says quietly "Umbrellaman Gun Mode: Shotgun Kick!!" and he rushes forward to attack Coal with his most powerful kicking attack; at the time the kick would land on his enemy he would shoot a bullet with the power of a shotgun that would definetely cause extreme damage to him.

Coal was sent flying back bleeding, but he was aware. He then waved his hand "SMOKE ELEVATOR!!!" Stairs of smoke pulled down Coal to the ground, luckily enough he wasnt unconscious yet, that would have seriously ended Smoke Fotress for good. Coal's feet were shaking and he swore , that kick was really powerful. Coal then waved his hand again "SMOKE OGRE!!" A giant ogre made of thick smoke came out of the ground. And was protecting Coal. Coal needed to rest a bit.

"Damn you! You will not get away like that!" are Maxulus' words to his enemy. He was determined to not let him go , at any cost. Without even stopping to think of his next move , solely controled by his instict , he begins launching a barrage of Rankyaku towards the giant so that he could completely destroy it as Rankyaku was made of air , after all. Then , without even noticing if the attack hit the ogre or destroyed it , he shouts "Umbrellaman Mode: Cutman!" after taking the sword abilities of his Multibrella and runs forward towards Coal to strike him with his punch that was a lot stronger than before as his arms (only) gained the powers of a sword. It looked like the battle had reached its peak...

Ranyx struggled at the chains, laughing. "Ah hah hah hah hah! Taking lessons from Ti'ar, are you? Hahahah! Been a while since I dropped by him!"

[ooc: I am waiting for a reply...]

At this range, the ogre blocked the attack from Max getting sent back a bit. The smoke ogre roared at Max and then aimed to completely smash him to bits. However Coal was panting and still recovering from the damage.

Maxulus , who did not even care if his previous attack hit the smoke ogre , barely manages to dodge its attack by moving a few steps behind. However , the impact with the ground caused a shockwave , sending him many meters behind and damaging him a little bit. With a face fully covered with his blood , except from his eyes , he looks at the ogre without showing any emotions. Nobody could understand if he was angry or calm. He could not understand either. His anger had reached its highest levels , that turned him into a heartless beast. He slowly levitates using his powers and then he points his enemy with his right hand. Without speaking , his arm seperates from the rest of his body , and moves towards the ogre with an extreme speed. He was preparing an extremely powerful punch. He was using his Umbrella Missile Attack , aiming for the ogre's head so that he would annihilate it.

The ogre crumbled under the hit. Partly due to Maxulus attack, and also partly due to the fact that Commodore Coal was now way too tired to handle controlling it. Coal was now on his feet. So very tired. He was about to run when someone said "Tres Fleur......." Hands sprung from the ground holding Coal in place. Coal cursed , it was the guy he shot at the beggining.

Alfresco then shouted as he stood up shaking "FINISH IT!!!!!"

Maxulus laughs as he sees that the Ogre is unable to do anything at all and grabs his shoulder after his arm returns to his body. The Commodore looked tired and it seemed like he tried to escape. Right before Maxulus was ready to move and slash the commodore to the chest , he was surprised to see some hands holding the Marine. He turned his head behind and he saw Alfresco. The man who was shot in the begining , despite his injuries , tried to help Maxulus. He watches at him for some seconds and he finally calms down. It looked like all he need to stop his anger was to see that his companions were alright.
Then , he begins moving towards the marine. Looking at him in his grabbed state and how tired he was , he knew that the victory was probably for the Anubis Pirates. As he moves , his Multibrella appears at his hand. As soon as he approaches Coal , at a distance of two-three meters he stops walking and he points the Multibrella in a way that it aimed for the man's face and actually his forehead. The 4th division commander of the Anubis Pirates takes a deep breath and he says "Hmph... It is bad that it ended this way... But there was no way that I would lose to a pathetic marine. Especially if I am helped by my comrades! Umbrella...Shot!" and he is about to shoot three bullets from his weapon to the marine's forehead in order to kill him.

[didn't shoot yet , its up to you to decide if you want to have him dead or alive]

Coal falls to the ground , with blood spurting. As he fell the smoke fortress fell apart and disintegrated . Best finally sighed as the fotress became nothingness. Alfresco fell to his knees and panted as he as well was relieved that marine was down.

Bierwick dashed across and picked up Coal, they had no reinforcements here, he needed to leave with his superior officer. He started dashing across the area. He wasnt too fast since he was carrying Coal. Best then shouted "Everything ok Max?"

Johan ran to Alfrescos side first.
"Everything okay?"
He looked to Maxulus.
"What about you guys?"
In his head, though, he thought: Shouldn't we chase them?

Maxulus falls on his knees. He finally managed to emerge victorious from this dangerous battle. He puts his arms on the ground and closes his fist. He says "Well... There is no need to hunt them. It would be better if we let the live with the shame of losing. And moreover... The Marines will finally understand that not only Anubis-sama is strong , but all of us are..." Then , he gets up. He coughs and he slowly walks towards the ship in order to get some sleep. He was tired from all these battles after all...

Johan strongly disagreed with Maxulus views. Revolutionaries didn't normally handle things that way, and he was a top class reviolutionary.
"I say we kill them while we got the chance. I don't want to get caught in that fortress ever again, and it will definitely be a warning to the marine to find their bodies..."
The others might have soft hearts in such matters, but he didn't. Enemies were killed. Always. ....At least almost always...

Maxulus laughs and he coughs blood. He turns his head to look at his comrade and he puts his glasses on. He picks up his tie that was on the ground and wears it. He says "Haha. I would chase them. But do you think that I have any strength left? My legs are burning and my body barely manages to move. After that smoke guy was taken away , I could barely move at all. Didn't you find it strange that I did not do anything?" Then , he turns he continues walking towards the ship in order to get some rest. As he leaves , he says after coughing some blood "You can do whatever you want. But I do not have any strength to battle with you anymore. I will definetely come to aid you but do not expect to much."

Johan looked after the marines, then back at his remaining comrades.
"I'll go. Whoever is strong enough to is free to follow me or catch up later. Heck if I can't take on one lousy marine and his half dead captain."
Was that his pride speaking? Did he have such a thing?´He didn't know...
Without turning a second time, he ran off into the direction the marines had gone.

Alfresco then panted "Well.... at least we won amigos..... sorry, my passion is overcome by pain........garghh.... none the less Max, we took the island right? Its ours now?"

Best was now seeing some defensive perimeter traps, and then walked up to Max "I swear Max , this design i have for a new cyborg might be too complicated for me to use......."

Max looks towards Johan who was leaving. "Hmph. He is so careless!" is what he says , however , he still hopes that the pirate would return safe and sound back. With a relieved heart that this battle was finally over , he says to his comrade "Well , it did not belong to anyone before so I guess this island from now on , is a part of the territory that belongs to Anubis-sama." He stops talking for a moment and he continues speaking "Now , it would be wise if we build a basement with and place the symbol of our crew here in order to claim the island...officially... I have already thought of something new that will definetely surprise you!" Then , he listens to Best talking. He takes a look at the design and he looks around carefully around to be sure that nobody is taking a look at it. He says with a voice that was trembling "Best...Where did you find it?!This-This design is...amazing! Outstanding! Marvelous!" As a scientist and inventor , he could not keep his excitement for himself. His passion for creating things was one of the few things that could make him act like that. He quickly speaks loudly so everyone could listen to him "Listen everyone! We will stay here for a while! After we build the basement , you can train , drink , sleep...And actually you can do whatever you want! Just don't be reckless to the animals... I got a dinosaur for us in order to have something to eat. If you ever get hungry go and get it...It must be in the forest." Finally , it was time for him to begin working.

Meanwhile, Johan dashed through the thick forest, only stopping to confirm he was going the right way.
It wasn't normal for him to be so reckless...
The last time he had been, it had destroyed his family. The pirates must be rubbing of on him...
"Damn´... Where are thy?"
He should have caught up to them by now!

Alfresco then said "Max kun, we should return to inform Anubis sama of our sucess...."

Maxulus was working on his new invention in the new basement that he built along with his crewmates. It had been a while since they defeated the Marines and now everything seemed to be okay. He was unable to do as much as he wanted about gathering data on each of the island's species , however , he managed to do something greater. Some days ago , before the basement was completed , he got to find the corpse of a baby dinosaur. As the animal was already dead , he knew that nobody would interfere with his business as he was not the one who killed it (reference to Ranyx...lol). After he saw the corpse , a new idea poped out of his mind. He would replace the practically dead body parts with new ones , made of copper and would replace the previous brain with an artificial one , that was made of copper as well.

The new cyborg was able to stand like a human , however it was not looking like a human. Instead , it had the face of a baby dinosaur. The back part of his head was covered with copper. That was the part of the body that Maxulus HAD to open in order to put the artificial brain. The hands were looking exactly like a dinosaur's with the difference that there was a "X" on them. The legs were looking like a dinosaur's as well. The chest was completely covered with copper and the back as well. The cyborg was not that tall. In fact , Maxulus was a lot taller.
The built was somewhat different from Maximus' though. The cyborg was not as strong as Maximus physically. Instead , it was a cyborg that was powered up with the power of electricity and could store great amounts of it. It did not have any raw strength but instead was able to use the electricity it stored from the "X"s that were shaped on its hands.

Maxulus takes a deep breath after he finishes making the cyborg. He managed to do such a thing in such a short time. He clicks a button and he says "Hello." The cyborg opened its eyes and began looking at its hands and its legs. Then , it turned around his body once. It could not understand what happened. It could not understand how it came to life or anything. It looked itself to a mirror and took a look of its face. It was different from Maxulus'. A lot different. He moves forward and he says "Grrrrra? Whegrami?" It could not speak very well at all , probably because of the fact that it was recently activated and its data lacked of human speech. Maxulus smiles and says "You are with me...In my lab. I am Maxulus N. Crow , an inventor , and you are a cyborg. I recently created you. Now , tell me...How would you like me to call you?" The cyborg froze for a moment. It could not understand how that thing could possibly happen. It looked at its hands again and said "You are Maxulus N. Crow... I am a cyborg..." It seemed like the cyborg was able to use any word it listened to perfectly with one shot. Maxulus was happy with that. He says , as the cyborg does not seem to decide how to call itself "I will call you Dino... I made you from the body of a dinosaur so I guess that would be perfect."

Then , he listens to a voice "Max kun, we should return to inform Anubis sama of our success...." It was Alfresco. Maxulus smiled and said to the cyborg before he began moving outside "Come on. I want to introduce you to the others before we leave..." and heads for outside in order to begin preparing for his departure. As he walked the cyborg smirked...

[The new Cyborg is going to be a NPC that will work as my assistant and will be used for a few arcs and not that much. If there is a problem with its existence , I will turn it into a PC]
