Chapter 24: Aloha Accelerator
Luffy and the others weren't expecting a guy to absorb a massive pillar of electricity which rained down from the sky.
Before they could even catch her breath, another pillar of electricity came down faster than the last one engulfing Kaito, Luffy and Connis. Everyone could feel the Island Clouds shaking by the sheer force.
Once the light died down, everyone was able to stare in disbelief by the massive crater it left behind.
"What the hell was that?" Sanji managed to speak first.
"That power…" Kanade shook in horror. "Was so destructive…"
"Whoever Eneru is...He makes Sissy's Railgun look puny," Kuroko stated in shock as well.
"HOLY CRAP!" Nora jaws dropped by the crater. "WHERE DID THAT GUY GO! HE STOPPED THE FIRST ONE!"
"MISS CONNIS WHERE ARE YOU!?" Sanji shouted.
"LUFFY! CONNIS!" Kanade yelled.
'So that why they were scared,' Kuroko thought eyed on the civilians. 'If they defy their God, then he'll punish them like that? What kind of God does that to his people?'
"DO NOT FEAR!" Announced a familiar voice. "THEY ARE SAFE!"
The others noticed Gan Fall riding on Pierre. Luffy, Kaito, and Connis were riding on Pierre's back. They landed near Kanade, Kuroko, Sanji, Nora, and Usopp.
"Hey, it's the weird old guy who saved us before!" Nora realized.
"Me, weird?" Gan Fall almost fell in response. "No, I am the Sky Knight, friend. And this one's on the house."
"Thanks, Sky Knight," Kaito nodded as he jumped off with while carrying Luffy.
"Miss Connis!" Sanji announced. "Look she's safe!"
"And she will remain so under my watch," Gan Fall replied. "You have my word! I shan't allow Eneru to harm her."
Luffy got off of Pierre and turned to the Sky Knight. "Thanks!"
"Now that you've seen the scope of Eneru's power and anger, what are you going to do next?" Gan Fall quizzed.
"The same thing we are gonna do from the start," Luffy answered. "Go to the Upper Yard and Rescue our friends."
"...I see," Gan Fall nodded. "May luck be with you!"
Pierre cawed as they flew off. While the others were waving at Gan fall and Connis, Nora was about to ask Kaito something but noticed he was gone.
"Hey, where did that guy go?" Nora asked.
"You mean the one who protects us from the first massive attack?" Usopp questioned.
"Yeah! I wanna know what kind of ability he has," Nora stated.
"Man~! My clothes are all wrecked," Kaito grumbled as he went back to Angel Beach, waiting for Maki to show up. "Damn that Eneru!"
"That what you get when you take on a surge of electricity," Maki sighed.
"Where's Gonta?" Kaito asked.
"He's already on the Upper Yard," Maki answered. "He noticed some fights going on there and he wants to make sure no one gets killed."
"That like him," Kaito grinned. "We better get going too."
"What about them?" Connis asked. Pierre flew the two away from Lovely Street. As Connis held onto Gan Fall from behind.
"They have chosen their own course," He replied. "Do not blame yourself, child."
"I...I know who you really are…" Connis said.
"Of course," Gan Fall said. "I am the Sky Knight...it's not a secret."
"No it's...we all know, "Connis said quietly. "Please come back to us God."
The Skypian civilians watched in shocked by Luffy's true goal. He along with Sanji, Kanade, and Nora were boarding on the Crow.
"Good luck you guys!" Usopp waved. "Hop aboard, get comfy and I'll give ya a good pu-."
In a split second Usopp found himself on the boat, without even moving an inch. He glared at Kuroko who smirked. "DAMN IT! I HATE WHEN YOU DO THAT!"
Luffy pushed his foot down on the pedal. "Upper Yard here we come!"
"NOOOO!" Usop screamed as he hung on the rudder.
"T-They went…" Mckinley shuddered, watching the six. "Without any fear or hesitation."
The Crow sailed through Gate # 2 which instantly lead to the Milky Road. Little did they know that they were going in a death trap.
The clash between the two artificial Dragon Slayers was getting chaotic as multiple shockwaves were heard around the area.
Shervan and Dimanu were evenly matched in hand in hand combat. Dimanu had the advantage of being a Sea Prism Stone element Dragon Slayer. However, that didn't matter to Shervan unless he relied on his logia form. They ended their dual by pushing themselves back.
"I gotta say, you're no pushover," Dimanu panted.
"You said that you were the first person to ever escape from Crimson Blood right?" Shervan stated. "The fact that there were tons of powerful guards everywhere. How were you able to escape?"
"True," Dimanu nodded. "However that is something for another time. For now, let continue."
Shervan prepared himself as Dimanu right arm transformed into a large steel harpoon. "Sea Prism Dragon Harpoon!"
Dimanu harpoon extended straight towards Shervan who rolled to the side to avoid the attack. However before he could think of a countermeasure, Dimanu puffed his cheeks. "Sea Prism Dragon Roar!"
Dimanu unleashed a powerful tornado with shards of Prism Stones inside it. Shervan quickly got up and ran away from the funnel of shards. The force itself was destructive enough to topple one of the trees down.
"Now you see how destructed Sea Prism is when it's a Dragon Slayer Element?" Dimanu laughed.
"It's true that a Sea Prism stone is lethal if I get hit…" Shervan admitted. Little did Dimanu know that Shervan was forming an orb made of out of wind in the palm of his hand behind his back. "However I don't think it could protect you against range attacks. Delta Sky Dragon: Jet Sphere!"
Shervan thrust his hand forward, revealing medium size ball of wind. Before Dimanu could even react, he felt a strong force of the orb struck his stomach. He didn't even get the chance to dodge the orb since the attack was so fast. Dimanu felt all the wind knock out of him like a punch to the gut.
"And Delta Sky Dragon Sigh!" Shervan thrust his arms out in front, firing a medium-sized blast of air at Dimanu who tried to cross his arms to soften the impact. Unfortunately for him, the Sea Prism Dragon Slayer was sent flying from that attack.
Shervan wasn't finished as he dashed towards his right arm cloaked in wind he gathered forming a shape of a massive arrow, "Delta Sky Dragon Shattering Arrow!"
Shervan thrust his right arm into Dimanu's chest and appeared behind like he was skewered. The wind arrow released from Shervan's arm and launched Dimanu right into one of the trees.
Shervan landed on the ground wincing by the injuries he got. However, he still stayed sharp knowing that Dimanu wasn't going to go down easily. Just as he thought, Dimanu slowly pulled himself out of the tree he was stuck on and landed on the ground.
"Not bad Shervan not bad," Dimanu chuckled. "I guess it's time for both of us to get serious now."
"Accelerator?" Hime gasped in awe by his new appearance. "What the heck was that?! You got a lot of nerve!"
"..." Accelerator didn't say anything, instead, he walked forward and place his hand on a side of the tree.
"Um...what is he doing?" Ren asked looking alarmed.
"Accelerator…?" Hime called out again.
Accelerator's right arm sunk into the trunk of the tree, giving warning signals to Misaka. "EVERYONE GET OUT OF THE WAY!"
"Huh?" Gajeel, Hime, and Ren turned to Misaka looking confused.
Which was a big mistake…
Accelerator grinned crazily as he uprooted the entire tree. The thudding noise got everyone else attention.
"DID HE UPROOTED THAT TREE WITH HIS HAND?!" Hime exclaimed.
"Y-You're kidding?" Ren grimace in disbelief.
"I guess being the top level 5 ain't just talk," Gajeel started with a grin on his face as he clasps his hands together above his head forming a gigantic iron sword. "Give it your best shot fake!"
Knowing that Gajeel was challenging him, the others ran away from Gajeel. Accelerator then launched the giant tree at the group. Despite how large it was, it accelerated quickly towards them like a bullet.
"Karma Demon Iron God Sword!" Gajeel swipes the sword down on the incoming tree slicing it in half as well as aiming Accelerator considering how tall the sword was.
Although Gajeel was successfully able to stop the tree by splitting it apart, he noticed that a chunk of iron zipped past him, barely cutting his cheeks.
Once the dust cleared, Accelerator was left unaired, grinning like a maniac. Gajeel just froze as fear suddenly develop in him. 'Shit! Why am I getting scared of just a fucken copycat!?'
"MOVE~!" Gajeel suddenly felt himself being pushed by Cure Princess just time as a boulder flew by where he was before.
"Phew that was a close one," Princess sighed once she stood up.
"Yeah, thanks for nothing!" Gajeel grumbled getting back to his senses.
"You should be a little more grate-!"
ZAP!
The two didn't notice another boulder aimed at them until a powerful beam flew into the boulder, destroying it completely. Princess and Gajeel had to cover themselves from the remains of the boulder.
"This is no time to be bickering!" Misaka yelled from the other side with Ren. Misaka then glared at the imposter of her nightmare.
Cynthia gritted her teeth in pain from Ohm's surprise attack. She along with Melody, Ruby and Beat didn't react in time to stop it.
"H-How was he able to hear us?" Beat whispered to the two. "We weren't even talking out loud?"
"We can figure that out later," Melody replied. "Right now, We need to think of a plan to save the boy and escape."
"Uh I don't think that's an option," Cynthia announced. She pointed to a dotted outline of Ruby beside her. The two Pretty Cure turned to find Ruby charging towards him.
"Leave him alone!" Ruby roared as she used her aura.
Without a word, Ohms tilted his upper body to the left to avoid a vertical slice from Ruby's Crescent Rose. Ruby quickly tried to do a diagonal slice on Ohms's chest but ducked to avoid it. Frustrated, she flailed her scythe at Ohms, hoping to get one direct hit. Unfortunately, Ohm was able to dodge every swing.
"Your mind is like an open book," Ohms stated as he tilted his head to the side when Ruby fired a bullet. The priests then delivered a haymaker into her guts launching her a few feet away from him. Ruby tumbled on the ground until her back hit a tree. She gritted her teeth from the pain that she was still conscious
The second he dealt with Ruby, Ohms crossed his arms, blocking a surprise dropkick from Melody.
"W-What?" Melody eyes wide in shock. She backflipped off of him and a few meters away from him.
At the same time, Cure Beat leaped at the distracted Holly and slammed her fist on the dog's side, causing the dog to let go of the boy. Cynthia quickly dived below, catching the unconscious boy.
"Phew that was close," Cynthia sighed. When she got on her feet and noticed something off about the boy's arm. "What…?!"
"GRRR!" Cynthia froze from the growl and slowly turned to reveal Holly who glared down at the two.
"Oh, Crap!" Cynthia screamed as she and Cure Beat ran away while Holly on their tails. Leaving Ohms with Cure Melody and Ruby who slowly sat up.
"So, you Blue Sea Dwellers will fight selfishly to protect the ones that split you up," Ohm comment.
"Hey, are you okay?" Melody whispered to Ruby.
"I...can manage," Ruby nodded as she stood up, glaring at Ohm.
Meanwhile, Cynthia carrying the boy and Cure Beat are still being chased by Holly. "Cynthia! You go on ahead while I'll deal with the Priest's pet."
Cynthia nodded. She didn't want to leave her here, but she still didn't recover from the wounds she got from Ohms surprised attack. She continued running while Beat stopped and turned to Holly whoe was a few feet towards her preparing to bite her.
Cure Beat slide under the dog's jaws quickly avoiding the attack. Once she was behind Holly, she grabbed Holly's tail and causing the dog to whimper a bit.
"YAH~!" Beat roared as she began swinging Holly around for a few seconds before tossing him up in the air.
However, Cure Beat didn't expect Holly to backflip and land on his hind legs. Holly brought up his paws like he was ready for a boxing match.
"A boxing dog...now there's something you don't see every day," Cure Beat deadpanned with a sweet dropped.
Luffy's team were riding along the Milky Road and were heading towards the Upper Yard on Connis's boat; the Little Crow.
"I really hope Connis is alright," Usopp said looking alarmed.
"Don't worry Usopp, I send that White Beret Captain flying," Nora said proudly.
"That's not going to stop the White Berets from catching her, and it's our own stupid fault," Usopp replied. "She be okay if she hadn't helped us. Also, I'm not sure she can trust that Sky Knight," Usopp added. "He pretty much gives me the creeps."
"He's kind of old and weird, but he doesn't seem like a bad guy," Luffy defended.
"There's no other choice," Sanji added. "I want to protect her, but it's not like we could have brought her along with us."
"That would cause her to be punished as well," Kanade said.
"She's probably in less danger without us," Kuroko admitted.
"Sacrificial Altars...Ordeals...From the sound of it, I wish I was the one flying off with the old geezer," Usopp shivered.
"We're the ones being forced through this ordeal," Kuroko reminded. "Even if you go with the Sky Knight, whoever's in charge might attack you for avoiding the ordeal."
"Man~! This piece of junk is so slow," Nora whined.
"Of course it is! What do you expect?" Kuroko sighed. "It's gotta be several times heavier than a stander waver."
"Still," Luffy pouted. "It would have been awesome if we've gone faster."
"Hey, guys look!" Nora shouted. Everyone noticed what Nora was pointing at. The Milky Road dropped them down to a more opened canal. They were shocked to find the massive trees everywhere.
"Guys...WHERE DID THAT HUGE FOREST COME FROM!?" Usopp exclaimed in shock.
"Is that the Upper Yard?" Sanji asked.
"Pagaya mention a forest but…" Kanade stared in awe at the trees. "He never said it would be this big."
"I think I see the entrances up ahead!" Luffy points to an entrance far ahead.
"Well, this is it Usopp," Kuroko stated. "If you gonna chicken out, now's the time."
"Actually if you don't mind, I kind of thinking of going back so," Usopp mumbled.
"Too late," Kuroko smirked.
"THEN WHAT'S THE POINT IN ASKING ME!?" Usopp snapped.
"Umm, what is Luffy doing?" Kanade suddenly asked. They all noticed Luffy on top of one of the branches of the trees.
"Luffy get back here right now!" Sanji yelled.
"But it's fun up here!" Luffy called back while climbing further up the tree.
"We don't care! Get down or we'll leave you behind!" Kuroko snapped.
"Oh right," Luffy thumped his palm realizing. He then prepared to slingshot on the boat. "Gum-Gum..!"
Kuroko's eyes widen in disbelief. "He's not serious…"
"ROCKET!"
Luffy launches himself on the boat, causing it to comical bouncing everyone inside it. Only Nora was enjoying the ride.
"I knew you wouldn't miss this grand adventure," Nora happily said.
"Yeah," Luffy grinned. The two noticed everyone else lying around in dazed. "Hey, this isn't the time for naps guys."
"WHO'S FAULT DO YOU THINK IT IS!?" Everyone who was dazed retaliated loudly.
After recovering from Luffy's antiques, they continued past the entrance to the Upper Yard. Usopp shivered by the statues between them when they crossed them.
They all began to hear leaves rustles on the land and a loud sound of a bird calling. The sounds make Kanade and Usopp flinched a bit in fear. What makes it worse is that they were in the middle of a graveyard of wrecked ships.
"This is unnerving to watch…" Kanade mumbled.
"What was that!?" Usopp asked frightened.
"Take it easy Usopp," Sanji said calmly.
"Open your eyes!" Usopp exclaimed. "Don't you noticed all the shipwreck were surrounded by!?"
"It's a forest," Luffy noted.
"He's right," Sanji added.
"That makes no sense…" Kanade sweatdropped.
"This must be the Priest's doing," Kuroko though. "Or they set up a trap."
The rustling began to grow louder, getting everyone minus Luffy to hear it in worry or caution. Usopp was the first to notice the thing that made that sound.
Which was a giant blade with a face on it...
"AHH~!" Usopp screamed. He along with Sanji and Nora began paddling trying to make the ship go faster.
"What's going on-?" Luffy asked but quickly noticed the giant blade whiz behind them, slicing a wrecked ship off the side. "WAHH! A SICKLE MONSTER!"
"Those aren't sickle monsters, they're giant scythe!" Kuroko corrected in a panic.
"Hang on tight! Here comes another one!" Usopp exclaimed in horror.
"N-Not just one," Kanade stuttered while noticing other scythe traps were sprung turning this quiet route into a chaotic mess.
"EVERYONE PADDLE LIKE CRAZY!" Luffy hollered.
The Six paddled faster avoiding several Sickle Blades that appeared from the forest. Most of them were inches close to the Little Crow.
"Watch where you're going~!?" Usopp panicked. "Faster Faster! No wait go slower!"
"Which is it!?" Kuroko snapped.
"This isn't working!" Luffy frowned as he jumps off the wheel and went to the back of the boat. "Usopp take the wheel!"
"Wait, what?" Usopp said as he took the wheel.
"Gum-Gum..." Luffy stretched his arms back, aiming behind the boat.
"What are you doing!? Kuroko asked annoyed. "It's in front of us!"
"I know just hang on!" Luffy ordered as one of the sickles blades swung down at them. "Bazooka~!"
Luffy sent his stretch hands colliding into the water causing the Little Crow to fly forward, escaping the reach of the sickle blade. The Crow landed away from the Sickle Blades.
"Okay I take that back, that was a good plan," Kuroko acknowledged.
"I don't think we're in the clear though," Sanji grunted as a sudden buzzing sound got their guard up.
"Great there's more?!" Kanade sighed. As soon as she said that, they noticed giant wooden spears raining down from the forest trees.
"Seriously?" Kuroko comically exclaimed. "Can't we get a break!?"
"Usopp go right!" Luffy called out.
"No left!" Sanji intervened.
"Which way!?" Usopp exclaimed in confusion.
"Just dodge them!" Nora shouted as she got out her hammer and swung it at incoming spears that were aiming at the boat. Luffy and Nora swatted away any incoming spears from behin.
"They just keep coming!" Sanji grunted.
"One of them is bound to hit us!" Usopp sadly cried.
No sooner as he said that, a miracle happens.
A stream of white flames shot out of the forest and scorched all the spears aiming towards the Little Crow. This made the others to froze with their jaws hanging out, speechless in disbelief.
"That was amazing!" Luffy gawked in awe.
"I don't know what just happened...but I'm glad that's over," Kuroko sighed in relief.
"I hope you're right," Usopp sighed exhaustedly. "I can't take any more scares."
Usopp felt a bit of Touma's rotten luck when they heard another buzzing noise ahead of them. "Oh now wha-GAH!"
"WAH!" Kanade and Nora ducked down as a giant saw blade came flying at them.
"It's gone?" Luffy asked in confusion.
"No it's not," Sanji warned. The giant saw blades made a U-turn back at them. "It's coming back at us!"
"MOVE!" Luffy exclaimed.
"DODGE!" Nora joined.
"Whatever you do just get out of here!" Kuroko ordered.
"I can't believe that giant crab dropped us in the middle of nowhere!" Jaune groaned. The Going Merry was on top of a stone altar which was surrounded by Sea-clouds in what looks like a large cove. On the end of the cove are dozens of large trees nearly blocking out of the sun.
"Does anybody know where we are?" Chopper wondered as he gazed around at their new surrounding.
"One thing for certain," Charla said. "We definitely somewhere in the Upper Yard."
"Upper Yard?" Happy repeated confused. "That's the place that Nami was scared of right?"
"It must be," Jaune said she noticed Levy and Chopper coming out of the room. "How's George doing?"
"I was able to close the wound, but he seems to develop a high fever," Chopper replied. "The imposter almost hit his vital organs. He's resting a bit below deck."
"I guess whoever was responsible didn't want to kill him," Levy added. "They just wanted him not to interfere."
"Still... it doesn't make any sense as to why they separated us in the first place," Charla said thinking a bit.
"Maybe they want fewer people on this sacrificial altar?" Happy guessed.
"Sacrifices altar!?" Jaune jaws dropped.
"What's a sacrifice?" Chopper asked.
"Uh well…" Levy paused trying to find a child-friendly way to tell Chopper. "...It's like an offering to the Gods."
"Oh is that all?" Chopper sighed in relief. "I thought it meant being boiling alive in a stew or something."
"That's what it means," Charla noted.
"HUH!?" Chopper gasped in horror.
"But regardless of the method," Lily said. "The thing they offer is generally someone's life…"
Chopper's jaws dropped in comical horror. "You mean we're all going to die here!?"
"This is getting annoying!" Kuroko yelled. The Little Crow was still in danger as the Saw Blade was pursuing them.
"Damn it~!" Usopp directed the Little Crow out of the way just as one of the Saw Blade almost destroy their boat. "Oh, it missed u-GAH NOT AGAIN!"
Another giant saw Blade zipped past the boat and struck several tree trunks cutting them down.
"I'm sick of this place! We're never going to make it to the end!" Usopp yelled. "I don't care what you say! We're going back!"
"Oh no, you're not!" Luffy argued.
"Shut up! I'm the captain of the Little Crow!"
"No, I'm the captain!" Nora yelled.
"Since when!?" Usopp and Luffy questioned.
"Since now!"
"Even if we do go back, there's no guarantee we'll survive the trip back," Sanji noted.
"We got this far, might as well finish it," Kuroko agreed. The giant Saw blade emerged out of the forest towards them again.
"AHH DOESN'T THAT THING EVER QUIT!?" Usopp exclaimed.
"Let's see how you like to get hammered!" Nora declared as she took out her Magnhild Hammer and transformed it into its secondary form; a Grenade Launcher.
She fired three rounds of pink canisters at the Saw and exploded in contact. The Saw Blade stopped spinning and fell into the clouds, but not without splashing the others.
"Way a go Nora!" Sanji cheered.
"Although, it was more than a grenade launcher than a hammer," Kanade sweatdropped.
"I think we finally get a chance to relax," Kuroko sighed.
"This is bad, now it's too late to go back~! I can't even see the entrance anymore from here," Usopp cried.
"Then just stay here," Luffy suggested.
"I'LL DIE YOU DUMBASS!" Usopp snapped.
"Well, you might as well get killed saving everyone then get killed giving up," Nora stated.
"Why do both options end with killing?" Kanade questioned.
"AH!" Usopp screamed getting everyone attention as a giant monster emerged from the Milky Way in front of them. Sanji immediately leaped at the creature knocking it back with a powerful kick.
"What the-?" Kuroko stated in disbelief. "What was that thing?"
"Was that a big snake?!" Luffy said in awe.
"It looked like a giant lamprey," Sanji corrected. "A sky Lamprey, I guessed one that big will do more than just suck up a little blood."
"This is the neatest forest ever!" Luffy said laughing.
"Neat forest my ass!" Usopp snapped. "If this is our so-call ordeal, then I quit!"
"This isn't something we can just quit," Kuroko stated.
"Kuroko's right," Sanji added. "We can't afford to waste any more time on this Milky Road than necessary, otherwise we're asking for certain death."
"Damn it!" Gajeel growled slamming his fist in the ground. He and the others were struggling against the imposter Accelerator who barely got a single scratch on him. The area they were fighting didn't look the way it was before. Multiple trees had craters and debris the Level 1 kept throwing at them.
"This bastard is supposed to be a clone just like George right?" Gajeel continued as he slowly got up after Accelerator launched him into a tree. "Then why the hell is it so damn annoying to take out!?"
"Just like before…" Misaka said with fear in her voice. "Every attack we throw at it, he bounces them back...Touma is the only person who was able to beat him before…"
Cure Princess remembered when Last Order told her back in Jaya when they were looking for the South Bird. How Accelerator was alone when he was young and was treated like a lab rat to reach Level 6.
'If attacks won't work on it...then what about…!'
"I got an idea!" Cure Princess suddenly announced getting everyone's attention.
"You do?" Misaka asked in shock.
Princess nodded. "However I need you guys to distract it until I'm ready! Don't let him notice me~!"
Misaka was a bit shock at first and wanted to call her out, but she knows that they won't get anywhere stopping this imposter without Touma so she decides to go along with Princesses' plan.
"One distraction coming right up!" Gajeel said as his right arm turns into a large spearhead. "Iron Dragon Demon Log!"
Gajeel fire a large number of fire spears on the ground creating a dust cloud to blind the poser. Before it could react, Misaka appeared out of the dust cloud on the right of Accelerator with a sword made out of iron sand she collected. separate
Misaka flung her iron sand sword which extended like a whip towards Accelerator. He moves an inch as the whip collided into his face and quickly disperse into separate directions.
The Imposter Accelerator was about to lunge at Misaka but got distracted by multiple bullets from Ren who was high on the branches on the left side of him, firing multiple rounds.
"This is my chances!" Misaka shouted as she sends out a bolt of electricity at Accelerator just at the same time Ren was firing.
The Imposter Accelerator wasn't phased by the attacks at all, but cause him to grunt in annoyance by which one he should first attack first.
"Hey~! Over here you piece of crap!" Gajeel emerged out in front of Accelerator with his fist pulled back. "Iron Dragon Hard Fist!"
The Imposter pulled his fist back and collided with Gajeel creating a massive shockwave. Gajeel kept pushing forward hoping to bypass the Level 1 powerful esper field.
"Kill Kill Kill Kill!"
Gajeel, Misaka and Ren eyes widen as they noticed four high powered tornados sprouting behind the imposter's back.
"W-What the hell?" Gajeel exclaimed in shock.
"I-I never knew he could do that!" Misaka asked herself in shock. She quickly forms a huge amount of iron sand in front of her as one of the tornados were coming towards her. She successfully blocks it but felt slowly getting pushed back.
Ren, on the other hand, had to jump off the branch he was on as the tornado broke the branch where he was on. Ren quickly changed his gun into two small blades and stabbed the bark so he slows down his momentum.
Gajeel was still struggling to push bypass Accelerator's vector, but the imposter uses the two remaining tornados to give him an extra boost overpowering Gajeel's fist as he was push back. However, that didn't stop there as the imposter launched his last two tornados at Gajeel.
'Shit, what's taking that brat so long!?' Gajeel growled as he began to puff up his cheeks. "Iron Drag-"
"ACCELERATOR~!"
Everyone looked up to find Cure Princess in front of Gajeel. She wasn't phased as the two tornadoes were coming towards her. "You need to chill out and relax~! And I'm just the girl to do it~!"
Cure Princess got out a Precard and her device. "Pretty Cure Spinning Mirror Change! Macadamia Hula Dance!"
Just in the nick of time, the area around them transformed into a light green scenery. The tornadoes that were inching towards her, disappeared.
Cure Princess's whole appearance changed. Her hair is worn in thickly braided pigtails with curled tips, her thin forelocks and the fanned out hair reaching her shoulders. She wore a white dress and a white and pale green skirt.
"...Where are we?" Ren asked looking around.
"I don't know…" Misaka answered unsurely. She noticed Cure Princess. "What the heck are you doing?!"
"This is my plan," Princess said. She then begins to hula dance gently. Ren, Misaka, and Gajeel just stare at her dumbfounded.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?" Gajeel comically snapped. "THIS IS NO TIME FOR YOU TO BE DANCING LIKE AN IDIOT!"
"Pretty Cure Hawaiian Alohaloe! " Cure Princess chanted calmly as she ignored Gajeel and continued to hula dance.
Gajeel angered suddenly faded into confusion as he slowly began to copy Cure Princess. "What the-WHY THE HELL AM I DANCING?!"
"This is really embarrassing," Ren mumbled as he and Misaka were doing the same thing.
"I would be angry at this, but this is really relaxing," Misaka sighed. Soon the imposter was slowly joining in with the group following Princess's dancing. No one noticed minus Cure Princess, but a few yellow flower petals were surrounding the 1st rank Level 5.
Cure Princess blew a kiss at the imposter Accelerator, twirled around and did a final pose that caused the Imposter Accelerator to float up in the air with a glow a light. Once the scenery returned to normal the Imposter Accelerator poof out of existence replacing with a dial. Cure Princess also returns to her original Pretty Cure outfit.
"What...just happened?" Misaka asked breaking the silents.
"Gehehe!" Gajeel laughed. "You four all acted like a bunch of fools dancing like that."
"You were dancing too you know!" Misaka comical snapped.
"Still though, I'm impressed Princess," Ren said picking up the dial. "Your plan worked easily. Who would have thought that calming him down was the best way to defeat him."
Cure Princess put her hands on her hips looking proud. "That's right~! I, Cure Princess was able to defeat the mighty Accelerator without punching him or anything! I bet I can do that to the rea-."
Princess froze in her pose as a small object zipped by her cheeks and crash into a tree behind her.
"What did you say about defeating the mighty Accelerator?" snickered the real deal as he and his group appeared out of the forest.
Cure Princess still didn't move from her spot but began to sweat a lot.
