One Piece: Rise of the Pirate Queen
Last time on One Piece: Rise of the Pirate Queen. Having to land on the island of Pebble Shore, Mika became separated from her crew. In an act to rescue her, Akio and Lena sneaked into Tony's base. They soon met Ryuudo, who offered his assistance in rescuing their captain as well as his friend, Nicole. However, their plan was halted with the sudden arrival of Celestial Representative Joseph, who had his mind set in acquiring both Mika and Ryuudo. Akio and Lena soon went into action, but now Tony and his cohorts have captured Nicole. With Ryuudo injured, will the crew be able to rescue her before Tony and his crew escape?
Lena vs. Kincad. Battle Between Guns and Snipers!
"Sir! Sir!" yelled a frantic sailor as he and many others searched through the dust and debris of the cavern-canal. After hearing the explosions, the sailors immediately went into action making sure their boss was well.
"Have you found him yet?"
"No!"
"Cuhahahahaha!" The men immediately stopped their search to direct their attention to Tony's and Mika's group. "You think you can beat us? You'd be better off a slave!"
"You bet I can!" grinned the teenage girl as she took up her battle position (It mirrors her fathers). However, the sailors could do nothing, but stare at her.
"Beautiful!" shouted all the sailors as their eyes comically turned into hearts.
"Huh?" said Mika in confusion when she heard the outburst. She then looked behind her to see the sailor ogling her from s distance. Needless to say, she was pissed/embarrassed.
"Stop Looking At Me! Perverts!" Suddenly, she started glowing as some electricity started to spark off freaking out her group as they stepped back from being hit.
"Mika! Control yourself!" panicked Akio. Seeing the panic in Akio's voice, as well as the panic of the people around her, she started to calm down.
"Guys!" shouted Ryuudo with a hint of pain gaining the attention of the group. "There taking Nicole!" Following his finger, they saw that Tony and his mates were no longer in front of them.
"Dammit!" cursed Akio. "Mika, Lena, lets go! Toby stay her with Ryuudo. Make sure that the Rep. over there doesn't take the opportunity to take him." Toby nodded
"Here, take these Explosion Bullets." said Lena handing Toby some small round bullets. "If they try anything funny throw one at them, but be careful they are sensitive." Toby nodded once again though begrudgingly.
"N-n-no problem."
"Lets go!" yelled Mika excitingly. The other two teens nodded and they left. All three teens ran towards the closest tunnel, however Lena suddenly stopped.
"Duck!"
"Oh! Where?" shouted Mika excitingly.
"Mika!" yelled Akio.
***BANG*** As the shot was taken, Lena quickly tackled Mika to the ground. At the same time, Lena took out her gun and shot in the direction as the last shot.
"Sorry, but this is as far as you guys go." chuckled a voice in the dust. The three teens rose their heads to make a quick surveillance. Another shot was taken, only to hit the ground near Lena and Mika.
"Dammit! We're fighting blind." muttered Akio in frustration. "Lena, can you spot the direction he's shooting from?"
"I'm trying." shouted Lena having rolled off Mika. "But it's really hard when he's not shooting to hit."
"To hit?"
"Tony probably wants to capture us in the end, both those shots were off from harming anyone seriously."
"Hold on! Who's shooting us?"
"That gray-haired relic. His left leg is a musket." Akio looked at Lena in shock.
"His leg's a musket! How the hell is that old guy so accurate."
"HEY! I'm not that old! I'm 37!" yelled Kincad as he took another shot that missed once again, but could not be seen were it actually hit.
"Whatever." shouted back Lena and Akio in a bored manner.
"Hey Mika, what should we..." whispered Lena as not to let the other sniper hear them, however, looking to where Mika should be, she was gone.
"Ah! Where's Mika?" Suddenly, several shoots were taken.
"Hey! Where are you going girly!" yelled Kincad taking some more shoots.
"I'm rescuing Nicole! Duh!" shouted back Mika childishly.
"Mika!" yelled both teens in a effort to call her back. However, soon the sounds the gunfire ceased, causing the teens to hold the breathe fearing the worst.
"Dammit! She got away." yelled Kincad in frustration giving the teens some relief. "I'll just let Tsukagi handle her then." Kincad then returned to firing hoping to find her two nakama.
"Dammit!" cursed Akio. "How are we going to reach Mika before that other guy gets her first?" Suddenly, a one, lone shot was sent blazing from Lena's gun in a upward direction.
"Gah!" yelled Kincad in shock thus halting him from firing.
"Akio! Go!" shouted Lena as she stood up pointing both pistols in the same direction as before.
"What?" said Akio slightly confused.
"Keep going! I'll take of this relic." grinned Lena at the aspect of a challenge. Seeing her confidence and determination, Akio nodded and quickly took his chance to locate the tunnel Tony, his cronies with Nicole, and Mika went into and left the field.
"Alright!" said Lena still grinning. "Time to even the odds." Lena then put her left hand pistol back into its holder and reached into her bag. Finding what she wanted, she removed the cartridge in her right hand pistol and replaced it with what looked like one of those air bazookas that covered the pistol's nozzle. She then pointed the newly-equipped pistol to the ground.
"Gust Bullet!" As soon as she pulled the trigger another shot was taken by the other sniper, however, before the bullet hit Lena was launched straight into the air. This action did not only help her avoid the bullet, but also removed the dust that had yet to settle. Now in the air, Lena took this chance to scan the area and took notice of a the gray-haired man on the upper ledges clearly still alive trying to move the dust away from his face.
"Gotcha!" Lena, now beginning to fall pointed her air-gun towards the opposite side and launched herself to the ledge that the gray-haired man was. Having propelled herself, Lena quickly unequipped her gun and reloaded another full cartridge. All before landing only a few feet away from the coughing man now holding both guns at him.
"Don't move."
"NICOLE!" shouted Mika as she ran through the tunnel. She couldn't see Tony or any of his crew mates, but she could definitely hear their steps, which meant she was getting closer.
"Mika!" Hearing the voice calling for her, Mika turned while running to see Akio catching up to her while vanishing from sight and reappearing right next to her looking somewhat exhausted.
"Hey, Akio. What took you so long?" smiled Mika.
"It's hard to do Mach Step with these gloves on." sighed Akio lifting his hands showing Mika the gloves. "They really slow me down and through off some of my balance."
"Well, he did say they were for training." stated Mika with a snicker.
"Whatever, let's catch up!" Mika grin grew larger and nodded thus picking up their speed. As they ran, Mika noticed Akio looking worried.
"Akio?"
"You think Lena will be okay?" Honestly, he trusted Lena, but they had yet to see her in full action and couldn't help but worry about their new nakama.
"Of course!" smiled Mika confidently. "She's going to be the World's Greatest Sniper!" Akio looked stunned, but smiled and nodded. And thus the continue there pursue.
Meanwhile further up the tunnel.
"Damn! These kids won't give up!" said Tony in frustration and exhaust. He could hear the two teens down the tunnel, and they were catching up fast. They had stopped off at the storage room to catch their breathe, though Swellow seemed perfectly fine.
"Captain, there are some explosives located here. If we set a few off it would buy us some more time." grinned Tsukagi as he looked over the crates of supplies they had obtained.
"Tempting as it is, there is too much to lose." said Tony thinking of the loss of supplies. "But stick a few sticks dynamite over the door that will definitely stop them, or at least slow them down enough."
"Got it." nodded Tsukagi and went into action. After giving Nicole, now gagged and tied, to Swellow, he went to search for the crate with dynamite. Unfortunately, he found it. Grabbing a few sticks, he quickly made his way to the door and started to place the dynamite around the door.
"Spark Pistol!"
"Oh, shit!" Before he could place even one stick of dynamite, a small spark orb came hurtling down the tunnel straight for Tsukagi, however, he quickly jumped to side avoiding the orb. The orb continued until it hit a crate, destroying it and spilling it's contained.
"The hell?" questioned Tony until he realized the only person that could do that.
"Finally! We caught up!" cheered Mika as she ran into the room with Akio behind her.
"Yeah." gasped Akio trying to catch his breathe and calm his body down. "Okay. Release Nicole now, before my captain and I do it by force."
"Cuha! Why should I?" mocked Tony standing next to Swellow and a distressed Nicole. "She'll be wasting her talents on bunch of rookies."
"At least, she would be respected as a person rather than a slave or "merchandise"." yelled Mika with anger.
"Whatever, little princess." said Tony unconcernedly. Mika suddenly grew a tick-mark.
"What did you call me?" said Mika as her anger started bubbling as she also gathered more electricity. Akio immediately looked worried.
"Oh! Didn't I call you a weak, helpless, little, Princess!" mocked Tony aggravating Mika even more.
"Uh oh." gulped Akio. At that moment, all hell broke loose.
Meanwhile back to the reason why this chapter was called "Lena vs. Kincad. Battle Between Guns and Snipers".
"How can you do that!" shouted Lena in frustration as she tried to shoot Kincad from where he was stationed.
Even though she had him earlier, it seems that he was very clever in using his musket leg. When she moved closer to knock him out, he had done a spin kick, thus knocking Lena's guns down from the ledge. Lena quickly acted and slid down the ledge to retrieve her prized pistols, not realizing that Kincad was reloading. Reaching the bottom, Lena took a quick look up to see Kincad aiming for her as he leaned on a crutch. Acting fast, Lena ran for her pistols while trying to avoid Kincad's line-of-sight. As Kincad took the shot, Lena had grabbed her guns and army rolled behind a fallen rock. From there it was like something out of the old west, both taking cover and trying to shoot each other. All the while, Lena wanted to know how that man could try without pulling the trigger. Which brings us back to this point.
"Ha, ha! Wouldn't you like to know!" shouted back Kincad as he took another shot at Lena's hiding place. Lena immediately hide back.
"Damn! Where are those bullets." softly muttered Lena as she went through her small bag for the right set of bullets.
"Come on. Come on. Come on." said Lena getting more frustrated. "Ah! Found them!" She then immediately stuck two bullets into her right pistol and set it accordingly to her plan.
"Hey! Old Guy!"
"My name's Kincad!"
"Whatever." said Lena once again unconcerned. "Eat this! Smokescreen Bullets" She then fired the bullets that she had found and they exploded where Kincad should be."
" (cough) What (cough) the hell! (cough)" coughed Kincad as he too slid down the ledge to avoid the smokescreen.
"Ha! Gotcha!" shouted Lena holding her left pistol at Kincad. "Sting Bullet!" Then the bullet went forth heading right for Kincad's shoulder.
"Gah!" yelled Kincad in pain as the bullet struck it's target. Once he reached the bottom he fell face forward unable to move.
"Don't worry." stated Lena calmly and surely. "The Sting Bullet just paralyzes the target for some hours, by then you and your friends will be behind bars." She then began walking towards the downed Kincad with a piece of rope to tie his hands and legs.
"Sorry, brat! Not today." smirked Kincad suddenly pushed himself off the ground and onto his feet as he lifted his left leg in front Lena, shocking Lena.
"How?" Kincad then pointed a thumb to his clothes.
"Bullet-proof. Really comes in handy, and your little bullet couldn't even pierce it." confidently grinned Kincad. Lena was shocked, what was she going to do with a bullet-proof clothes. She could aim for the bare skin areas, but she didn't want to kill him it was against her nature. However, she would have to figure that out later.
"I know the captain said he wanted to capture you guys." said Kincad while contemplating his next move causing Lena to think of something quicker. "But, the captain won't mind if one didn'..."
***SWACK*** Acting before he could finish his sentence, Lena quickly used her left pistol to whack Kincad's musket leg redirecting it to Lena's right and throwing off Kincad's balance. She took this advantage to put some distance between them and quickly jumped back. As she moved back, she took the time to study Kincad as he tried to regain balance. Suddenly, Kincad's musket went off causing Kincad to fall over, however, Lena had noticed something. Before the shot, Lena noticed that Kincad's left hand acted strangely. While his right was waving frantically trying to bring balance back to Kincad, his left was strangely even. Then she noticed Kincad's index finger twitch inward followed by the shot.
'That's curious.' thought Lena as she made her way back to her hiding place.
"Grr. Damn brat!" muttered Kincad as he picked himself up and moved to secure himself. "Where are you!" He began looking around to see where Lena had run off to. He then spotted a sliver platter reflecting an image of Lena hiding behind a rock. Kincad smirked.
"You know, your not the only one with special bullets." Lena slowly took a look around the rock keeping an eye on Kincad's left hand. Seeing Kincad's middle finger twitch, the cartridge in Kincad's musket leg ejected. Kincad then pulled out another cartridge and slapped it in. He then lifted his leg and aimed for a wall confusing Lena a bit.
"Musket Ricochet!" yelled Kincad as he fired. Watching closely, Lena noticed Kincad's index twitched once again and like last time the musket fired.
"So his left hand can somehow fire the musket and eject the cart- AHHHHHH!" As Lena began realizing how that musket worked, she was soon met with an unbelievable amount of pain in her right leg. Dropping down to the ground, she looked at her leg to see a bullet wound.
"But, but, how?" groaned Lena clutching her leg in pain
"My Musket Ricochet bullets can bounce off objects at least two times before hitting their target. They are made of a special material of iron that can bounce." smiled Kincad as he slowly began to walk towards where Lena was.
"How did you know where I was?"
"The silver platter shows all!" chuckled Kincad still making his way to Lena. Lena was confused about his statement until she looked around to see the silver platter that Kincad had mention, seeing Kincad evilly grin as he mad his way towards Lena.
'Dammit! How do I beat him? He's got bullet-proof clothes on, I can't move, and any other bullet I could use could...Wait!' thought Lena when an idea suddenly formed. Quickly grabbing her side bag she began digging through for a very special item.
"Ah! There you are." evilly smiled Kincad as he rounded the corner after some minutes seeing Lena still there still unable to move.
"So this is the great Sniper of the East Blue?" mocked Kincad. "Pfff. What a joke. I guess old "Musket Leg" Kincad will have to relieve you of your title." Kincad then took out a pistol from his side and pointed at Lena's head.
"Heh. I finally figured you out." muttered Lena still in pain, but smiling.
"Eh? What's that now?"
"How you fire and reload so quickly." Lena then pulled out one of her pistols and weakly pointed at Kincad, which only reached his hip, causing him to chuckle mockingly.
"You think that knowing either of those things are going to help you now?" said Kincad still mocking her.
"You can somehow activate the trigger and the ejection mechanism in your musket by moving your left hand's fingers."
"Hah, hah! Very clever." complimented Kincad though somewhat amused. "Yes, I have some strings attached that do the things that a normal sniper would if they were holding the same gun. It's not perfect, but it still works."
"Anyways, any last words, girly."
"Just two." grinned Lena. "Drill Bullet!" She then fired as the noise of a drill could be heard. As the bullet's name says, it's like a little mini-drill which activates the moment it's fired.
"What the?" Was all Kincad could say when the bullet made contact with his bullet-proof clothing and ripped right through to his leg, more specifically, his musket leg. Suddenly, his body began shaking a bit when his musket leg immediately broke off.
"What!" Kincad instantly began to fall to his left, dropping his pistol in an effort to try and catch himself.
"Sting Dart!" yelled Lena when she took out a blow gun and launched a blow dart that landed right on the right right side of Kincad's neck. Kincad then landed with a thud and this time he did not get up.
"I...I...Can't...Move." stuttered Kincad looking directly at Lena.
"Of course." smugly said Lena as she lifted herself up against the rock. "While Sting Bullets are for faster prey, the Sting Darts are just enough to get a slower opponent." She then forced herself to walk over to Kincad and removed the dart while also examining it.
"Whoops! Looks like I gave the Red dart, instead of the Yellow dart."
"What...Does...That...Mean!"
"It means that you are going to feel a ton of pain in about thirty-seconds for a minute then be unconscious for another four to five hours." Kincad gave Lena a look of pure shock, while Lena collected her things and tried to walk to where Ryuudo and Toby were. A little of the ways out, Lena lifted her hand to reveal three fingers.
"3...2...1. Have fun." At the moment she said that Kincad's body was immediately taken over by pain and started to fitter around and foam at the mouth. Lena paid no mind to it.
Meanwhile back at the storage room.
"Wow! That girl has some temper!" said Tsukagi as revealed himself from behind an undamaged crate. All around the room, various crates were either destroyed or currently on fire. Signs of a battle could be seen all over the place.
"She really doesn't like to be called "Princess"." stated Akio with a sigh. Akio had found it safe to not move from his spot at the moment Mika went furious, though seeing what Mika did to get back at Tony was a sight.
"How come?"
"Sorry, that's on a "need to know" basis, and you don't need to know." With that Akio immediately started rushing to get to Mika so she doesn't collapse the mountain on top of them. He barely got five feet when out of no where Tsukagi rushed in front of him throwing a punch. Although surprised, Akio quickly side-stepped the punch, however, was meet with a strong kick to the side sending him flying into some crates.
"Sorry, kid. But captain's order is that you not reach the exit." calmly stated Tsukagi getting into battling position.
"No your not." smiled Akio lifting himself up and also getting into battling position.
"Yeah, you're right." Then Tsukagi immediately rushed Akio again, though this time Akio was prepared.
"Mach Jab!" Akio the disappeared from Tsukagi's sight, however, Tsukagi quickly moved right barely missing Akio's attack and receiving a nasty burn. Turning around, he found the teenager with his left fist extended out like he was going to punch, however, Tsukagi knew otherwise
"You studied Mach Boxing, haven't you." said Tsukagi more like a statement then a question.
"Yeah." said Akio as he turned around. "And you studied Feint style."
"Ah! Very knowledgeable are we?" questioned Tsukagi. "Then tell me, what makes you think it's Feint style?"
"The way you move usually has a different meaning behind it." stated Akio. "Not only that, but Mika tells me your a pretty big liar as well. Feint style involves misdirection. Perfect for someone that can easily mislead people."
"Ho, ho! Knowledgeable indeed." said Tsukagi as he rubbed the mark on his cheek.
"Of course, but Feint style is said to be weak since it's only used by low-level thieves." said Akio quizzically.
"True as well." grinned Tsukagi. "But in the hands of a true master, it's unstoppable."
"Really?" questioned Akio not really believing him.
"Oh! A doubter, eh." said Tsukagi as he ready for the upcoming battle. "Let's see who's better; your Mach Boxing or my Feint style."
"Fine by me." agreed Akio as he did the same.
Meanwhile further up the tunnel.
"AHHHHHHH!" screamed Tony as he and Swellow with Nicole were running for their lives from the ballistic teenager shooting electrical orbs wildly. 'This girl is crazy!'
"WHO'S A PRINCESS NOW! DUMBASS!" yelled Mika sadistically as she fired more spark orbs.
TO BE CONTINUED...

Akio: Damn! He really is a master.
Tsukagi: You see! No fighting style can beat my Feint style!
