Gyojin Heart
The Marine Flagship, Stone Island Docks- "Call it off! Are you mad?" Togorogiri looked at Smoker tiredly, "No, but if they can help Arlong, it would make things a lot easier and less bloody." "I don't care if Arlong is chasing butterflies in the park, he's killed..." "Sir!" A yeoman rushed over, "Sir, The World Government has been displaced by a coup! The new government has given us ahead to do whatever's necessary to stop Arlong!" Smoker smiled, "About time. Ready the sails!" Togorogiri shook his head sadly and disembarked.
The Siren's Call, Stone Island- "Hmmm..." Ran stroked his furred chin, "Hmmmmm... It's a big bounty. And we can't be certain this will work." "If not, then you can go get him later, chu." The Kisu looked at the Hyena, who was obviously deep in thought. "I guess I can wait..." A man ran into the Siren's Call, "The fleet is pulling out! They're going after Arlong now!" Half the patrons rushed out to their ships. "Well, bugger..." Chuu shook his head sadly, "This is all unnecessary, chu..."
Dragon's Head Beach, Dragon's Head Island- They've already begin to move... What a waste." Kurobi turned to Tohru, "We'd best warn Arlong."
Arlong Park II, Dragon's Head Island, "So, they've come for me? Well, we must prepare a proper welcome." Arlong stood up, "Ready the guns!" Everyone began to move... "Arlong-Sama, perhaps we should go to the tunnels and stage a guerilla offensive." Arlong rubbed his chin, "I have a better idea..."
The Vanguard, The Fleet- "Sir, we're in sight of Dragon's Head." "Ready the guns!" "Sir!" A Koi-fish ram over to captain Baylog, "The island, it's... Moving!" "What in the name of..." Baylog took ut his scope, yes, the island was moving, a great churning was visible around her crumbling shores even as a volley of cannonfire struck at the approaching fleet... "My God, they've turned the island into a ship!"
The Marine Flagship- "How the hell..." Smoker was stunned, Tashigi looked at him, "How is it possible?" "I don't know, but he's doing it. Return fire !" The cannons roared at the strange site, bouncing uselessly off of boulders and natural rock formations. The island began to pick up speed and fled as the stunned fleet watched. "Now what?" "Now we follow them..." The ships sped after the retreating island.
Stone Town, Stone Island- Togorogiri looked out at the ocean in alarm, the seas were drawing back as if afraid. It could only mean one thing, "TSUNAMI! Everyone to high ground!" Everyone made a mad dash for the high ground as the seas suddenly swept back toward the island in a crushing wave. The massive wave struck the docks, sending splinters of wood and pieces of boats flying everywhere and continued on until it had swept across most of the village, before pulling back out to sea, carrying the debris with it. The town was still in one piece, but the water had entered probably every home , every building. "My God! What do you think happened? An earthquake, an eruption?" Togorogiri held onto Katarina's hand tightly, "I don't know... I just don't know..."
