I do not own One Piece, only my OCs.
Chapter 36-Paramount War Part 2
Akira's POV
I run to catch up with Luffy, but I see him get kicked back by Kizaru. As Jinbei catches him, Whitebeard's division captains rush forward to stop Kizaru.
"Luffy. You ok?" I ask as I get to him.
"I should be asking that from you." he said smiling.
Whitebeard shatters the frozen waves with his devil fruit, giving his allies a route to escape if they want.
I smirk and wipe the blood from my mouth as Whitebeard launches towards the execution platform and into the battle.
He moves forward, with all his allies and crew opening up a path for him.
As I nod at Luffy and the others, we run towards the execution platform.
I stager a bit as Whitebeard causes an earthquake so big the entire island tilts to one side. The three admirals are somehow holding the execution platform so its not affected though.
As we make it to the city, dozens of walls shoot up, blocking our paths. Only, Oars' body is blocking one of the wall's path so its open.
I watch annoyed as a storm of flaming magma rain down on us. I use my fire to create a shield. Decreasing its temperature to freezing point, I shield Luffy, Andy and the ones around us from harms way.
Akainu's attack is destroying our footing along with the Moby Dick and the sea turns to magma.
Cannons come out of the iron walls and start to shoot at us.
"For fucks sake." I growl annoyed as I create a fire wall around us. I watch in disbelief as Whitebeards attack only dents the iron wall.
Snegoku then announces that its time for Ace's execution.
As the pirates travel over Oars, Luffy asks for a favour of Jinbei. I try to summon my wings again and relief washes over me when both appear from the black flames unharmed, I flap them a bit to make sure that they work alright.
I take into the air and head to the execution platform with a pillar of water flying beside me.
I land right in front of the execution platform and Luffy emerges from the water wielding a mast. We stand right before the three admirals.
I duck and get rid of my wings as Luffy tries to strike the admirals with the mast but Aokiji freezes it. I jump back a bit as Luffy shatters the frozen mast with one of his gum-gum attacks. They dodge the projections from the frozen mast and I send fire balls at them with high speed. Luffy gets into his Gear Second and makes a straight dash for Ace as I try to hold off the admirals.
Kizaru catches up to him and knocks him aside with a kick.
"You should focus on your own opponent, woman." Aokiji said as he froze my arm.
"That's not gonna work." I smirked at him as I surrounded my arm with magma hot black flames, melting it with steam coming off.
The guards are about to execute Ace but are blown back by Crocodile's attack.
Aokiji uses that moment of distraction and kicks me in the stomach freezing it and sending me back. He stabs Luffy with an ice sabre but Marco knocks him away.
I summon black flames to my stomach to melt the ice as a coated ship appears from the sea. Oars lifts the ship and pulls it through the hole he created.
Whitebeard leaps into the plaza as well and using his staff weapon, knocks away all the marines in his path. Only the admirals, a few vice-admirals and those upon the podium remain from the marines.
Aokiji attacks Whitebeard but he causes another earthquake. Jozu takes over fighting Aokiji.
I stand up straight, as I create my little fire bombs I send them at some vice-admirals who attacked me. Luffy got into a fight with some, as well as Andy and Xena who has now joined us.
Luffy is easily overwhelmed and Kizaru sends a light beam at him but I jump in and reflect it with AkaKage glaring at him but spit out blood falling to my knees. I used up a lot of energy and that blow to my stomach isn't helping.
As Luffy lay behind me defeated and I fight not to fall, the admirals remind us that guts alone wont save Ace.
Akainu picks me up by my left wrist burning it as they kick Luffy back.
"Luffy." I shout worried.
"You should worry about yourself." Akainu warned as he tightened his grip.
"Haha should I really? Hell's chains." I said grinning as black chains appeared from the ground, snaking around me and Akainu. As they pulled us apart I jump back to make sure Luffy is ok.
Jinbei called for a doctor to look at Luffy's injuries.
Whitebeard attacks the marines again but is stopped by Akainu and starts to fight him.
As Jinbei joins the battle, Marco attempts to reach Ace but gets knocked back by Garp.
Ace starts to cry as he reflects on his childhood. He says that he's happy that his allies care enough about him to spill blood for his sake and that he wants to live.
I feel my rage spike at his speech and I'm more determined then ever.
"I wont let you die. I will save you Ace." I shouted to him determination burning in my eyes.
Whitebeard suddenly collapsed from old age. I watch as Marco rushed to protect him but fails to see Kizaru and he pierces Marco with a light spear. Jozu distracted by Kizaru's attack, Aokiji freezes his arm.
Akainu deals a devastating magma-powered blow to Whitebeard's chest.
Getting angry, I pull AkaKage out and charge at Akainu, pushing him back.
Meanwhile Luffy gets another boost of Tension Hormones and stands up.
Andy and Xena help out the division commanders against the admirals while Luffy and Ivankov fight their way forward.
They get passed Coby easily enough but the Pacifistas attack again. I rush to his aid and decapitate one as Hancock steps in, they recognize her as an ally and stand down after I jump back to Luffy.
She calls me her sister as the marine guards prepare to execute Ace again.
Marco and Andy try to fight Kizaru but both got put a sea stone handcuff on one of their wrists by Onigumo. Kizaru fills holes in them with his light spears. I watch in horror as Jozu and Xena got turned to ice entirely.
As marines attack Whitebeard he defeats them all and Jinbei and the others stand behind him to defend his honour.
The guards ready their weapons to execute Ace. Luffy and I shouts for them to stop, Luffy unleashing a great burst of Haoshoku(conqueror's) Haki, that takes out the executioners and most marines and pirates alike, followed by a giant black fire wave that I released. It burns the marines that are too weak to protect themselves, leaving only bones behind. Everyone stares at us surprised. I fall against Luffy as that took more power out of me then expected. Ivankov comes up to us to question Luffy on his burst of Haki and my fire wave. He has no idea what Iva is talking about and I just shrug it off. Whitebeard commands all his forces to back the two of us up.
As we're about to be attacked, Whitebeard's allies jump in to protect us.
We run forward as Hawk-eyes attack us but Crocodile stops him.
Iva called Inazuma for help as he climbs out of his hair, cutting the ground around him makes a walkway to the execution platform.
We thank him and run up towards Ace. I only have enough power to use that technique. I'll wait till the time comes to activate it.
Many try to stop us but are halted by Whitebeard and his forces.
As Garp gets in our way I grin and wave at him. Hey, I always wanted to meet Luffy's grandfather, he's cool. I let Luffy handle him as I stepped back.
He went into Gear Second and I watch with respect as Garp lets Luffy knock him out with a punch. We make our final leap to the platform and reach Ace.
"Ace." I said and hugged him as Luffy pulled out the key to his handcuffs.
As he's about to unlock his handcuffs, Sengoku uses his devil fruit and turns into a giant gold Buddha. Holy shit he's huge.
Kizaru fires a beam of light, destroying the key.
"What the fuck man?" I shout angrily as Ace sweat drops beside me.
Mr 3 dressed as a guard rises and offers to help us.
As Sengoku unleashed an enormous punch towards us. Luffy commands Mr 3 to protect me and Ace with his wax as he holds Sengoku back.
The blow causes the scaffold to collapse with the four of us falling.
The marines open fire at us but as a dust cloud rises, Mr 3 creates a wax key and frees Ace. The four of us emerge from the explosion. Ace at front as I hold onto him, Luffy to me and Mr 3 to Luffy.
As we land, the marines come at us and we fight them off(excluding Mr 3).
Aokiji fires a mass of ice at us but Ace blocks it with an enormous wall of fire, like I did before with the magma.
As Whitebeard's extra ship comes blowing through Marineford, driven my Squard, Whitebeard orders his men to return to the New World at all cost. He wants to stay behind as his era has ended and his time is up, his crew and allies protest to that but he stubbornly stays. I got to Xena to check on her. I have no other choice but to break her body. They stare at me in disbelief as I just killed my own nakama. Soon enough, her body starts to regenerate and her heart starts beating again and she starts to breath. I melt the sea stone handcuffs off Andy and Marco, I tell Andy to take care of Xena as she doesn't look to wake up anytime soon.
Whitebeard delivers an enormous quake into the city of Marineford as it begins to crumble.
At his persistence, the others realize they wont be able to sway his decision and do what he told them to and flee.
Akainu attacks Whitebeard with a huge molten fist and then starts mocking him. Ace gets angry and shouts back at him to take back what he just said. In the end he provokes Ace to attack him, Akainu burns Ace's hand and pushes him back.
Luffy attempts to rush back to Ace's aid but falls to his knees, dropping Ace's vivre card in the process and draws Akainu's attention to him. Shit, I need to do something.
As Akainu attacks the younger brother Ace leaps in the way.
I watch as time slows down and Akainu's molten lava fist gets dangerously close to Ace. Not hesitating for a moment longer, I unleashed my most powerful technique.
"Grim reaper." I said as the technique took over my body and I changed into something that is far from human. As I opened my eyes, my vision turned black and all I could see was the white outlines of my surroundings.
My skin turned snow white as my eye turned black except my iris that remained tangerine orange, my pupils turned to slits, my tail still the same but I had huge black bat wings. I'm once again wearing a black hood that extends at the top and dangles down my back, its ends at a thick silver collar on my neck that has a chain coming off it from the middle, I have thick silver cuffs with chains on my wrists as well. I'm wearing a top, that consists of a thick strip of black fabric that crosses over at my chest covering my breasts and connecting at my neck and at my back, I have on a black full skirt that sits low on my hips, reaching down to my mid thighs as the end of it is ripped and fraying. Instead of shoes, there are black claws on my feet and hands instead of nails, I can also feel the sharp fangs in my mouth. I took the form of a demon grim reaper once again. I found that AkaKage turned into a big scythe in my hand as well, with the blade in black flames, it all had a red shine to it.
I grinned a murderous grin showing my fangs. I slashed AkaKage down into the ground creating a fire wave that cuts trough between Ace and Akainu, stopping the admiral from reaching my brother.
As time goes back to normal. Everyone looks at me shocked. Most stepping back in fear of me. Ace collapsed out of exhaustion onto Luffy as he catches him.
I snarl at Akainu baring my fangs at him as I pull my scythe out of the ground and charge at him. I slash at him but he jumps back and away from my brothers as I stand in front of them protectively.
I grab Luffy and throw him at Jinbei as the kid passes out.
"Take him to safety." I say with a dark growly voice. He complied and I turn to Ace.
I bite his neck and he turns into a black little Japanese Rat Snake after the black flames disappear from around him.
"Wrap around my wrist and hold on tight." I said as I grab his vivre card that Luffy dropped. As Ace complies I turn back to Akainu and send a death glare at him.
He attacks me again but I block it and cut his right arm clean off. He grits his teeth as blood oozes out of his arm.
As the other two admirals join him they push me back a little. I send another fire wave at them though that they hardly manage to dodge.
I can feel my powers seeping out of my body quicker than I'd like, so I leave them up to the Whitebeard pirates as I jump into the sky and fly after Jinbei and Luffy.
Whitebeard gets injured further by Akainu but creates another earthquake to destroy Marineford.
I landed by Jinbei as Andy caught up to us as well in his full wild dog form with an unconscious Xena on his back.
We ran towards the exit as Blackbeard and his crew arrived. He killed Whitebeard and took his powers. I had to grab snake Ace so he doesn't try to go back.
Akainu gets passed Ivankov, Inazuma and some others, quickly following us.
I take off to the sky as Jinbei tries to reach the water but its ice, Akainu jumps after him punching him into the ice, the blow goes through him and strikes Luffy, leaving an 'X' shaped scar on his chest. Damn you, you fucking git.
She saved Ace :') I'm so very happy for that
