Deleted as this thread is getting out of hand :(

Ez looked at Sebastian, but through his hair. His hair covered his eyes enoguh to where he could see through them, but they provided cover over his purple eyes. He saw the arrow wizz down, missing the marine ship's curtain and saw an arrow in the side. He did not note this, however. If he spoke, although having a moderate bounty, it would cause the marines to look at him. His looks were unique and easily detected. He tapped his foot in moris code, signaling he wanted to speak to Kyren. Walking into the hold, Ez proceeded to put on a black robe to cover his looks. A stealthy enemy of the marines. Now this might get interesting. But he noticed before he walked into the hold an outline that only lasted a second until it dissappeared.


Angelina had missed her target and clearly could not manage to shoot well enough. So she took the rowboat and struggle to the nearest island.

[Angelina will rejoin later]

Kyren heard and could feel vibrations on the floor coming from Ez and had no idea if he was tapping a tune or doing it out of boredom, Kyren stayed there waiting for a reply from Sebastian. Kyren still found the other man strange as he was wearing pyjamas. He wasn't sure why but just left him to it as he felt it was the best thing to do.

"Are you sure?" Sebastian asked, concerned. "I mean, this storm's HUGE. Are you sure your ship won't sink? I mean..." he was cut off when another man was knocked into full view of everyone, but then started up again as if nothing had happened. "I mean, I wouldn't want any of you poor people to drown..." Kirke place a hand on Sebastian's shoulder. "Vice Admiral. That man... he's got a bounty. That captain also seems rather... averse to us having him on our ship." He made a broad sweeping gesture with the other hand, still holding the pillow. "Now, this is just a guess, but I'm going to just posit that these guys are criminals." He shrugged offhandedly. "Though, I'm just guessing."

Sebastian's cheerful and warm expression then changed. Drastically. "Really? Is that right, Kyren? I'm going to have to apprehend that man, and anyone else here who happens to be a criminal." He gripped the edge of his coat. "Nothing personal, you see. Kirke?" Kirke tossed his pillow lackadaisically over his shoulder, before cracking his knuckles. "I gotcha. You owe me a loooooooooooooooooooooooong(cat) nap after this, you know."

Uta was completely focused now. He looked toward Kyren. "Captain!" He opened both of his palms and got into a fighting stance.

Kyren felt time slow down as he realised these guys ere going to try and take his crew members, Kyren wasn't ready to lose any of his crew and heard everyone of Kirke's knuckles crack, he knew lying wouldn't do any good and instead of trying to lie he simply looked Sebastian in the eye and said to him "That's right, we're pirates, and I don't want either of you aboard my ship, I'll admit we do have a few people aboard this ship who have bounties, but if you think your going to arrest them, I'm going to have to say good luck." Kyren then focused all his strength into his arms and threw his fists forward at Sebastian's chest using his heart stopper technique. Kyren knew this technique probably wouldn't stop his heart as so far it never had done but he did hope it knock him off the ship.

Wilfred heard noises outside on the deck and returned to the deck to see Kyren attacking Sebastian, he then knew this marine was one which had to end, he wasn't going to let himself get arrested. Wilfred threw his fist at Kirke's face.

Uta saw Kyren's attack as an ok to fight. He left Sebastian to his captain. Uta faced Kirke and charged toward him. When he was five meters away he yelled, "Discordance!", thrusting his right palm toward Kirke's chest. If it made contact, it would send him flying off the ship toward the marine vessel.

finishing his training ken sheathed his swords and gave a sigh of relief before turning around, realizing he had missed an important event. quickly taking out his swords he got into nitoryu battle stance. ready for anything he waited until the battle would become a full on brawl before joining in. ethier way it went ken knew that he probably would get some experience from this. seeing his friends beggining the fight he looked at kirke and began collecting air with katana tama. he bet that if the two didnt know of his fighting style he would get the upper hand with a surprise attack.

deer trotted onto the deck in animal form and read the scene quickly. not letting the marines onto his true powers he began reading the field for the perfect moment to strike.

At the words of the marine, he had widened his eyes. He turned and let his hair flow, although he was not an infamous pirate, all marines would know a pirate with a bounty's face. Especially one that sticks out from others. He gripped the handles of his swords, Selvatico and Solitario. " Kyren, if you don't mind, I am going to attack." he would say. Selvatico's hilt is still off, and so is Solitarios now that Ez had putting another hilt in his pocket. He unsheathed his swords and readied his duelist stance. " Around these parts, I am not that known, but you might remember a pirate named Eken. And also a pirate named Davi. They were known mostly throughout the North Blue." he would say. He assumed that marines knew his parent's faces so he sparked up some words. Holding his gladius upside-down and his wakizashi with finess, he twisted his body and slightly crouched. The rain to him glimmered all throughout the sea. The world seemed gray to him in this storm. When lightning bolts fired, the light would luminate his purple finish to his appearance. Ez hesitated to attack, waiting for permission. At the sight of attacks he moved forward toward the silent guy. "One hundred...." he would say, but not finish. He pressed the buttons on the ends of his swords, flipping the Wakizashi upside-down and spinning with great momentum, he released his attack. The blades of his swords broke off, and in this storm the wire attaching them seemed invisible unless a lightning bolt shined its light. He would whirl around, slashing at his foe. It would begin with a short flailing of swords then his gladius would bring upon a heavy 100% horizontal slash, letting the wakizashi follow in momentum. The gladius would have more brute force where-as the wakizashi would cause more of a clean cut. He would then spin upward and bring both swords down at the same time. He would do one more spin, retracting his wakizashi's blades, and would swing down, building force by dragging his gladius accros the floor. It would be stuck for a moment until it realized, having a 1.3x force multiplier. This uppercut would finish the combo, but he was not so sure about if it would finish his foe. Being about 6 and a half feet away from his foe, he retracted the gladius and went back into his stance. "...Blades." he would said, with such a calm and soothing voice. Rage was a bad factor within swordsmanship, but the gladius Selvatico was made around rage.

Sebastian sighed. "And here I thought we could get along!" He threw up his coat, creating an arcing barrier between him and Kyren. He muttered 'Hard as Diamond' as Kyren's palm met his coat, and Kyren found himself stopped short. Sebastian then swept his coat down, before stooping lower and bringing it sweeping out at Kyren and saying, "Sharp as Steel!" If Kyren wasn't light enough on his feet, Sebastian's coat would cleave him in half.

Kirke groaned. "Don't be so bleeding blunt, man!" He grinned and threw his fist into Uta's palm. "Kanone!" The force of his punch rebounded Uta's effect, essentially neutralizing the punch and blowing Uta back by the force of his own technique. "Zehn Kugeln!" Kirke leaned forward before throwing ten Kugel punches at Uta, in an attempt to stun him with extremely quick attacks. Kirke then stepped backwards rapidly, in an attempt to avoid Ezekiel's strange attack. "Granate!" Kirke punched the air, compressing it and throwing it at Ezekiel. Before it reached the man, it exploded in midair, hopefully catching Ezekiel in the blast zone.

(Sorry about the delay in posting m'darlings...I've been seriously busy as of late -_-)

Delphi blinked herself awake, smiling widely when the first sight of morning for her was the sight of her lover smiling back at her.
"Good morning, love," she said sleepily, sitting up and flicking her hair back over her shoulders. "Thank you for making me breakfast. You really are far too good to me. Please sit and eat with me."
She beckoned Annachie to sit beside her on the bed and ate with him before standing up slowly and rifling through her clothes to find something to wear, standing in nothing but her underwear as it was.
As she sifted through her clothes, her eyes widened at the sight of a truly beautiful purple dress. "A-Annachie...is this...for me?" Her eyes shone with admiration as the folds of it fell to the floor.
Delphi beamed and leaned across to kiss her lover's lips. "Thank you so much! It's gorgeous!"
She stood up and put it on straight away, twirling around a little and blushing. "It's so pretty..." She smiled softly to Annachie. "You are truly wonderful, you know that?" The young woman moved to sit in his lap and was about to place another kiss on his lips when suddenly a loud banging and crashing- a cacaphony of violent sounds- broke out on the deck above them. "W-what was that?"

She got to her feet and raised an eyebrow at the sounds of the attack. "Quickly, Annachie. We should go up and investigate...and help out if needs be..."
Delphi grabbed her guardian's hand and immediately headed to the upper deck. The first sight to meet her eyes was that of Ezekiel swinging a wired blade- a wakizashi- towards a man in a marine uniform.

Delphi's eyes widened with shock at the sight of Sebastian Derekson and Kirke Schwarzwald. When she had been with the Sea Sirens,(her former all-female pirate crew), the Captain had once told her stories of them before.
Horror stories from a pirate's perspective.
Particularly considering that one of them was known as "the human armory."

Delphi reached into her medical satchel with shaking fingers, preparing to heal her crewmates as quickly as possible, the young woman still recoiling at the sight of the imposing marine figures.

Uta was surprised that a sudden attack by Kirke was able to blow him back. His timing was disrupted by the shear force of the Kanone. Uta immediately knew that this would be trouble. Kirke's speed was definitely far from the ordinary. Still on the ground, Uta saw a volley of small air blasts flying toward him. "Eros' Throne!" The space around Uta was suddenly disturbed, slowing down anything that moving into it by about 50%. This created just enough time for Uta to determine the best path through the volley and he dodged them all. He stood back for a second and watched as Ezekial charged toward his opponent.

Kyren saw the coat change as it came swinging towards him, Kyren was a little slow on dodging it and was sliced very lightly across his abdominals. Kyren didn't notice it much as it wasn't too deep. He held his ground then pulled out his two scalpels and placed them between his fingers. Kyren rolled to the right of Sebastian and kept himself down on his knees and the quickly before his coat finished fluttering he began using his punching slash technique aimed at Sebastian's knee cap. Kyren had no idea how he was going to beat this man.

Wilfred saw Kyren get sliced and joined his fight by throwing a punch at Sebastian's face from the other side. The good thing about this was that Wilfred was strong enough to dent the steel coat if it remained in the way. Wilfred continued punching towards Sebastian's face hoping to hit him but unsure if he actually succeeded.

(Don't worry about it Lore its fine, you do fantastic posts.)

Wolfgang had been completely silent the moment that the marines made their way aboard the ship, his hands drifting down to his hip holsters. They began to hold friendly conversations with Cap'n, man that guy sure had a way with words...a certain idiotic flair maybe? Wolfgang couldn't wrap his head around it but hey, that's why Cap'n was Cap'n and Wolfgang was the lowly Gunslinger.

When hell broke loose, Wolfgang did the first thing he could think of, distance himself from the fights and quickly find a vantage point. He watched Uta and Ezekiel begin an assault on one of the men and Cap'n + Wilfred against the other. Wolfgang could only break out a grin once he saw Cap'n's opponent throw his coat out and the grin quickly faded once he saw him change the object's values.

"D...devil fruit." Wolfgang muttered as he shook his head and decided very promptly that he would be facing the o- BOOM! An explosion occurred in the space between Ezekiel and his opponent. At that very moment, Wolfgang thought of a plan that could benefit him...

seeing that his friends were fighting kirke and handeling thier own ken turned his attention to the vice admiral and smirked. the circle of compressed air was now glowing a brilliant bright blue and he knew it was ready. quickly stopping his swords he pulled both arms back and prepared to unleash hell on his enemy. whispeing to himself "no marine bastard is gonna take my crew... katana" before he finished he gripped tora and ryon tightly and finished his sentence with a dark voice "tama." finishing his sentence ken first brought his right arm forward at blining speeds, letting loose an air bullet heading straight for the vice admirals forehead. quickly after he began to fire a barrage of attacks, all carefully aimed as not to hit his other friends while they fought.

deer had analyzed the skills of the two marines and decided to help his friends too fight kirke. changing into hybrid form he seemed to crack his knuckles before winding up his left arm. lifting his left arm he carefully took aim while activating the firing sequence. his air quickly charged up while he waited for the smoke to clear. as soon as he had a clear shot he would fire with everything he could gather while waiting. (charge 1)

Of course, throughout all the commotion Cassy was under the blankets, nude, curled up and sleeping.

Uta watched as Wolfgang also joined the fray. Obviously, they would gain a slight advantage in numbers. However, facing an opponent with formidable close and long-ranged capabilities would be difficult, even with extra help. Watching the last attacks made by Kirke, Uta made two theories. FIRST, Kirke's fighting style seemed similar to boxing, using mainly his fists and dodging attacks using as little movement possible. SECOND, the punches Kirke throws gain their strength from sudden compression of the air around his fists, giving them an added range plus explosive capabilities.

Of course, Uta wasn't sure whether or not Kirke's abilities were limited to just punches. However, assuming it was Uta made a third theory. "His back is most likely his weak point." Assuming that Kirke's anatomy was that of a regular human being, Kirke wouldn't be able to turn his arms around to his back, thus leaving it open. Uta knew that it wasn't much but that was the only chance they had of defeating him. Having two others fight with him made the idea seem more realistic. With that in mind, Uta moved to 30 feet away from Kirke, keeping a cautious eye out for attacks.

Ez had used his blades to slice through the wind. This would reduce the impact. He used the position he was in to backflip. Although, the backflip was a bit rough. He prepared his stance for Metal Duster. He leaned forward, seeing Wolfgang in the way. Grunting, he decided to get out of the Metal Duster stance. He would go around wolfgang, being at his side. He would unsheath both swords and slam them into the ground inbetween him and Kirke. In a blurred motion, masking his dark appearance in the shade of the storm, he would dash forward and crouch, lunging his hand in a snake motion towards the neck of Kirke. After that attempt, he would twirl around Kirke, readying and elbow for the back of his head. A migraine can be caused from great force striking the back of the head usually. Afterwards, Ez would kick the back of Kirke's leg. This was an unexpected combo by him. Stepping back and running forward, Ez would jump and flip over his foe. He would land, flamingo kicking one of his swords out of the floor. The sword would spin in the air whilst falling. He would do a momentumful spin, kicking towards Kirke's head. If this combo succeeds, Ez would spin still, jumping up and grabbing the sword- Solitario- and would slash down with great might. " This is known as the Ragnabreaker. A Technique designed by my father." he would say, but noone would have a clue who his family was.

Ez would step back even if his combo failed, letting the others in on attacking. He needed to prepare for a Dragon Dance

annachie ate breakfast and as he saw her put on the beautiful dress he said to her "it is still not as beautiful as you are my darling" as the bangs started he saw delphi run off to the deck so annachie followed delphi as they went onto the deck and saw the marines he didnt know who they were but he saw everyone else was fighting so he didnt join in off course because he had to make sure no harm came to delphi and stood in front of her and said "dont worry" because she saw she looked scared he hugged her to try and calm her down before standing in front of her again to protect her.

Kyren used all his strength trying to dig the scalpels in his fists into Sebastian's leg he then stood up and began using his cross slash technique hoping to slash through his clothing and tear Sebastian apart with his scalpels.

As Wilfred's fists were flying towards Sebastian's face he saw but was unable to react in time a lightning bolt fired down and struck him as the steel his arms were made from attracted the lightning. The lightning didn't affect him much as he couldn't really feel much anyway. As the lightning passed through Wilfred he realised if Sebastian wasn't quick enough to avoid the punches he would've suffered some of that shock too along with himself.

Kyren saw Delphi and Annachie run out and he smiled hoping Annachie would offer a helping hand at taking down this guy.

annachie saw that kyren was fighting this guy but didnt help until delphi instructs him to or he will just wait till delphi is in danger before joining in this activity. he noticed wolfheart wastnt their in fact wolfheart was sleeping in the kitchen after some travel he had gotten a little sick and was tired. annachie saw that kyren needed his help but stood resolute because if her left delphis side delphi might get attacked and he wouldnt be able to defend her.

Cid left the cabin when he heard stuff, he heard marines where there and walked up deck Cid was working for marines sometimes so they might let it pass if cid was there ''hey there vice admiral is there a problem, I think I did my run with my flying ship two weeks ago, is something wrong kind sirs'' he said smiling hoping the marines would leave

Delphi looked up at Annachie, her green eyes aglow with determination. His presence alone gave her courage and even the little hug was enough to restore some of her confidence.
"Annachie, love, Captain Kyren needs your help. Go and assist him, please. I'll be here if I'm needed...please, don't worry about me..." She stroked her guardian's face before heading over to the edge of the open deck, her eyes on the marine ship as an idea was slowly formulating in her head. They young half-mermaid swung back around again to observe the fight. Ezekiel, Uta, Wolfgang, Deer and Kyren were already keeping Schwarzwald and Derekson busy...and now it looked like Cid was going to try and negotiate with them...Also, as part of an added bonus, none of them appeared to have noticed her.
Kyren was a doctor too, she reminded herself, so if one of the crew needed patching up- they could rely on their Captain.

Thinking quickly, she assumed her mermaid's form and dived into the water, headed for the hull of the marine ship.

Wilfred saw Delphi dive into the water and called out "Delphi wait right there!" Wilfred ran away from the fight after throwing a couple of punches to his room where he grabbed the clockwork bombs he'd been working on. He rushed back out to where the fight was and threw a bag to Delphi. "Use them to your advantage, just pull the cog back and they should start!" he called out then returned to face Sebatian along with Kyren. Wilfred had finally found a use for him being completely remade a cyborg, with increased speed and strength he was a tough opponent.

Delphi caught the bag and nodded to Wilfred amidst the choppy waves.
"Alright! Thank you, Mr Wilfred!" She nodded to him and immediately dived back beneath the waves, clutching the bag to her chest as her fins carried her to the hull of the marine ship.
She resurfaced to pull one of the small clockwork bombs from the bag, examining it for a moment before doing as Wilfred had instructed.
She hastily pulled the cog back to activate the clockwork mechanisms and hurled it into the timbers of the marine ship's side before diving back down beneath the water to avoid the shockwaves from the blast's epicentre.

Sebastian's coat dropped down to cover his lower parts, and he hardened it with his DF power to make it as tough as diamond again. Likely, the scalpels Kyren was using would be dulled by the now diamond-hard cloak. He threw his arm to the floor before pushing off the deck to launch himself at Wilfred, a leg extending to kick Wilfred in the neck. As he moved, he luckily avoided the attack Keel had thrown at him.

Kirke stepped back a step: his explosive residue was a bit too much to see through. "Direkt Luft-Rakete!" He braced himself before throwing an extremely forceful uppercut into the air, the force behind the punch enough to literally lift him off his feet and throw him into the air. He spun in midair, facing his opponents. "Time for a switch up! Maschinengewehr!" He began punching the air rapidly, sending thousands of Kugel speed air missiles down at his targets (Wolfgang, Ezekiel, and Uta).

Kirke began to fall back down towards the deck as an explosion sounded. Sebastian turned around in shock as he saw his ship getting damaged. "GUYS!!!" He screamed as he turned on his heels and began sprinting for his ship. "IS EVERYONE OKAY???" He leaped off the Clockwork Pirate's ship, before placing a hand down onto the ship. "Hard as Diamond!" Sebastian screamed, ensuring his ship would take no more damage. "INTEGRATE TIMBERS INTO THE SIDE OF THE SHIP! Everyone, make sure you bail out the water that's coming in! Make sure the wounded are move to a safe location: anywhere too close to the sea is liable to be hit by an explosion!" Sebastian's voice was tinged with worry and a slight amount of... wait, was that hysteria? "Everyone! Stay safe!" He screamed as a final order, as the crew of his ship ran around sealing up the hole Delphi had made in it.

"Kirke! Hit the one blowing up my ship! I can't let anyone else get hurt!" Kirke landed and backflipped all the way back to his superior's deck. "Gotcha!" Kirke yawned and looked down into the sea, looking for signs of movement. He could only catch signs twice, and each time he threw a Shell Shot at what he thought was a woman, but he really couldn't be sure. "Everyone, try to avoid getting caught in the pirates' line of fire!"
