Things were quiet in Crocus. Most refugees from the east of Fiore have either returned to their homes or joined the volunteer's workmen force. Which basically helped civilians get safely back home, Help the alliance start to transfer the food, materials, etc. To the next world and get ready for the next campaign. Right now leading that transfer was Leader and Founder of the Alliance himself Chitsujo. He was also fulfilling his promise to Toma E. Fiore to help with restoring the country to its former glory. Right now the being of order was in the office that the king had provided for him and he just sent for his Intelligence commanders and Supreme Commander Dragon to come here. He wanted to talk them before he continued with leading the transfer.
Knock, Knock ''Come in.'' Just then a male soldier from Menou came in with Monkey D. Dragon and the Intelligence Commanders in tow. ''I'm glad you came there is couple of things I wish to discuss before I leave you to help with the transfer.'' Before Chitsujo continued he noticed one of his commanders wasn't here. ''Where is Kisuke?'' The commanders looked around in shock and confusion until Beckman spoke ''He was with us coming here. Where did that lazy bastard run off too'' he spoke in slight annoyance. Then Mavis noticed something on his back. ''Ben there appears to be note stuck to your back'' Beckmen appears slightly annoyed after hearing that but asks ''Probably from Kisuke, what does it say.'' Mavis the proceeded to read out loud ''Kick me''
Safe to say this caused almost everyone in the room to comically fall over and this pissed off Beckmen even more. ''Lazy bastard! When I see him again going kill him.'' Before he continued Mavis spoke up again ''Wait there's more. Dear Beckman, Mavis and Shikaku I've been invited to be a judge in the Miss Universe contest, Be back in few hours signed Kisuke''
This just made everyone in the room sweat drop and Chitsujo sigh, He heard of this contest, in fact he himself was originally invited to be a judge in the contest but politely declined. The contest was suggested and being promoted by Sorcerer Weakly and the Pixie Path Shipping Company, the biggest shipping company in Ishgar as way for the other worlds to bond and help promote diplomacy between all five worlds henceforth why they invited judges from all five worlds to participate. ''Well we will have to deal with Kisuke later. Anyway I called you all here because I'm going to be going to my kingdom soon to begin the transfer and to check on things, I'm also going to check on the borders with my Saint Warriors and I wanted to remind you all we need to stay vigilant'' This made Dragon raise an eye brow ''Your worried your brother might do a sneak attack while your away, Just like he did with that prison break three month ago?''
Chitsujo nodded ''Exactly while I have faith that you all can counter whatever my brother throws at you. I still feel the need to warn you though. That prison break was also message meaning: I can attack you anytime I want. Plus I have no don't many plans in his head.''
''Troublesome and here I thought we able to get some down time'' sighed Shikaku.
''Someone needs to keep the fort steady. Not all of us can relax and take break Shikaku. But don't worry I also requested the rest the Alliance Leadership to help out just in case. Currently Lady Mizukage and Master Bob are with workmen force get any refuges home or any family that have separated because of this war '' replied Chitsujo ''I also must request you keep an eye on the Acts of Order. I know those boys can take care themselves and have others to look out for them. But I've watched those boys their entire lives and can't help but a sense of responsibility for them ''
This made Dragon think for a moment and a sense of understanding came over him. Being the Father of Monkey D. Luffy, though he wasn't there for him for the majority of the boy's life he still felt a slight concern for him but ultimately trusted that he could take of himself. Besides out of him and Chitsujo, Chitsujo was probably the better father or a least more of a father to him than him.
''Don't worry Chitsujo you have nothing fear we all know the risks of this war. But we also know we can counter anything that Konton and the Coalition throw at us'' replied Dragon.
Date: Year X792, September1st, Magnolia 10:30am
Magnolia right now was bursting with life right now. Vendors filled almost every street in the city. All shops, bars and restaurants were offering 80% deal on all members of Alliance. This made a particularly Hokage happy and go out do what she loved most…Gambling much to the distress of her poor assistant Shizune. As it so happened the Akane Resort had opened a temporary casino that suckers I mean customers of her kind will enjoy and by her type I mean the Legendary Sucker Type.
''Lady Tsunade I beg you please don't go spending large amounts of money again. You already own large amount of debts in our world'' cried Shizune. Shizune's mind flash backed to all the times. They moved from village to village back in the Land of Fire all the time just to escape debt collectors note this was before Tsunade was made the 5th Hokage.
Sadly this didn't stop Tsunade's resolve. In fact it seemed to strengthen it. ''We have about a week before we set out to the next world Shizune. So I'm going try out my luck here before we set out. Besides different world, Different laws of physics. So that must mean my luck in this world must be different! I can sense it Shizune I can win this one'' She said with new found determination but this only caused Shizune mentally cry.
The two eventually reached a small two story building with neon like lights saying Akane's Mini Casino. At the front desk stood a dark blonde long haired woman with a pink bonnet on her head and wearing a frilly pink dress. ''Hello welcome Akane's Mini casino. How may I help… Excuse me Miss? But do you so happen to be one of the Alliance Leaders? The 5th Hokage Tsunade?'' the dark blonde haired girl asked.
Tsunade blinks at this a little surprised and then smiles.'' Why yes, I am'' The girl then out of nowhere stars appeared in her eyes and she grabs Tsunade's left hand and started crying tears of joy. ''I just wanted to thank you so so so so much for helping to take back our country from the coalition. You are too kind''
Both Tsunade and Shizune are both looking at her with sweat drop expressions. ''My pleasure'' Tsunade says. ''Would you please stop crying It's Kind of awkward trying to talk to someone when their crying tears of joy'' Tsunade says, this makes the girl stop crying. ''Sorry I'm Michelle Lobster. It is an honour to welcome you to our casino''
Tsunade returning a smile ''Tsunade of the Sanin, Thank you, can I have 500 tokens please?''
''Wait I know that I'm not supposed to do this but here.'' Michelle hands over a flyer to her. On it says Miss Universe Contest. Prize Money: 5000,000,000 Jewels, Date: 1st September, "2pm Magnolia Park. Tsunade looks at the flyer in mild curiosity, she then turns to Shizune. ''Shizune what's the current exchange rate between Jewels and Ryo right now?''
Shizune is puzzled by this question but then she looks at the flyer and gets what she is saying. ''I can't exactly remember the number my lady, But I figure it would be enough to pay of at least 40% of your debt'' Shizune said ''Well then cancel the gambling plans Shizune because I am entering that contest!'' Tsunade says in determination.
This makes Shizune jump with glee ''Really my Lady if you win please tell me you plan to using the money to off pay of most your debts?''
Tsunade gives a look of approval to her ''I do, but it's not just that I'm hoping to accomplish,'' This confuses Shizune but before she can ask Tsunade answers by saying ''Because the moment I pay off most my debt, Then I can barrow even more money allowing me to gamble even more and heck if I win this contest that must my luck be different in this world''
This caused Shizune comically fall over. Tsunade turns back Michelle ''Thank you, Here's a tip as thanks'' Tsunade hands a 10 Jewel note. ''Oh your too kind and I wish you luck in the contest''
After Tsunade and Shziune left, Michelle left her desk and walked into a nearby alleyway. There to greet her was a tall, thin man with pale skin and shaggy, dark brown hair, two bangs of which cross over the bridge of his nose. His turquoise-colored eyes are circled by spiked purple ovals. He stood their leaning on the alley wall. ''Was there any trouble Imitatia?'' Just then the dark blonde woman's outfit transformed from a pink dress to strapless shirt made entirely of dark green petals, long, dark green gloves that reach to the top of her arms. A short wide skirt made of dark green petals that point sideways and she also wears pouch-like boots. Her left arm and both her legs are adorned by light green thorny vines. Covering her right eye is a rose shaped eye patch.
''No trouble Muramasa, honestly I thought the Hokage would be a lot harder to fool. I guess title doesn't always mean you're superior or intelligent. Though I did sense an Immense amount chakra honestly if she was born in this world. She would be a Wizard Saint. '' Imitatia smirked. Just then she noticed that Muramasa had a little blood dripping from his nose. Safe to say this did not make Imitatia happy. ''Did you just look at my body while was transforming?'' she asked in annoyed and pissed off tone''
Now I know what you are thinking. That there is no way that big bad Muramasa the very same guy who caused the Zaputako Rebellion is a pervert. Well it turns after his first death at the hands of Ichigo He mellowed out a little bit after being brought back by Konton. During his time in the Coalition he tried to keep mostly to himself mainly because he was one of the few people resurrected by Konton that was content in staying dead and he also didn't hang around with anyone else other Skullak Tuma (Who was now dead) and this woman, he consider the rest of Coalition trash. However fate was not lucky and suddenly this woman started hanging around for whatever reason. Not that he minded too much. He also now has an intense hatred for his former master Kōga Kuchiki. As such when he was revived he disowned his master and vowed to kill the latter himself someday. He still however needed some sort edge over him due to the latter knowing most his abilities and him getting a couple of Allies might help with that goal.
Muramasa who just got out of his train of thought then noticed the strip of blood coming out of his nose. ''Of course not Imitatia'' Wiping away the strip of blood from his nose ''What do take me for?'' being offended at the thought.
Imitatia doesn't look convinced but moves on. ''Contact Sue tell her we have finished our assignment'' she sighed
Muramasa grabs a transponder snail from his pocket. ''Sue this Muramasa calling are you their?''
Meanwhile on one of Magnolia's rooftops 11:11pm
Bellona stood watching in case any alliance soldiers took notice of them remaining vigilant she was after all in enemy territory though not an enemy by her choice. Truthfully if it was up to her, her country would have remained neutral in this war. She considered the Coalition an Axis of evil filled with almost all the scum in the universe had to offer. But no Queen Eris had some weird obsession with the leader of Coalition after hearing about Konton from the Chairman of the Magic Council, Lord Hyperion. After that Eris did all she could to try contact him, Instead three days earlier he contacted her offering her alliance and a great position in the new universe order in exchange for her loyalty. Bellona didn't trust Konton and convinced Eris to at least at first meet with Konton in person before considering an alliance. Next thing they knew they were at the Kingdom of Rakuen on visit and to make sure that Konton could be trusted. However that visit did not go as she had planned.
Flashback
Date: August 28th Watcher's World, Kingdom of Rakuen
Eris and Bellona were being escorted to Lord Konton's Throne room by one of his servants. ''Tell me servant girl what this Lord Konton like? I've heard stories about him from Dracolus Hyperion and when he spoke about him it was with great fear. So I figure he must be quite powerful if he made even wizard saint scared '' Eris asked.
The servant girl first looked around making sure no one was watching and then answered. ''Lord Konton is a powerful man who rules with absolute power and one of the two most Godly beings in the universe.'' Just then girl the stopped talking, Bellona could swear she saw a look of fear in her eyes looking right past her.
Eris and Bellona turned around to see a tall man in red cloak with silver hair and red eyes walking towards them. The servant girl gasped slightly and Eris squeaked in delight ''Lord Konton at we finally meet in person'' Konton ignored her and turned his attention to the servant girl. ''My dear you said one of the most godly beings in the universe are saying that I am on equal strength to my brother?'' Konton narrowed is eyes slightly at the girl.
Suddenly the servant girl got down on her knees. ''Forgive me my Lord. You are correct Chitsujo is nothing but insect compare to you. You are the only God this universe needs'' Konton now looking satisfied ''Don't forget again, now go attend to your other duties I will take our guests to the throne room'' The Servant girl ran as if the Devil himself (Which Konton kind of is really) was after her. Bellona looked a little scared herself and shocked at the display and fear the girl showed while Eris on the other hand was blushing like school girl.
''Such fear, such authority. You truly are what all the stories have said.'' Eris squealed with hearts in her eyes oddly enough, she then kneeled towards him and bowed her head. ''I am Eris .T Loki current ruler of Pergrande Kingdom. But you probably already know that being the one of the Watchers '' Konton looked at her and gave pleased and evil smirk, though Bellona didn't know if he was being friendly or just he liked the praise perhaps he was even just faking being pleased if so he was good actor. Konton liked people like Eris who were completely loyal to him. They were the most fun and easiest exploit he knew that this woman would be useful to him it was one reasons he invited the latter. ''Thank you Eris, But it is common thing me to do. My subjects need realize that there is only one God in this universe and that is me. But enough of that let us head into the throne room. Forgive me by the way for the reason I was not there to greet you there was because I was in meeting with one of my elite soldiers.'' As they walked two the throne room Bellona kept staring at Konton as if trying to get read on him and what his true intentions were but she just couldn't but did feel sense malice off him. Once they reached their throne room Konton calls for another servant to bring refreshments.
Konton then sits on his throne and beckons Eris closer. ''Now Eris you are probably wondering why I contacted you. Well see one of my Acts of Chaos will soon be facing against the Alliance's 2nd and 3rd Divisions on what will most likely be the final battle for Fiore. Whether he succeeds or fails decides if I require your assistance or not.'' Eris blushed and bowed again. ''Myself and my country are at your beck call my lord''
''My lady should we not wait to hear what Lord Konton wants to tell us and why he requires are help for? '' Bellona speaks up. Eris turns towards her and gives a slight glare to the latter. ''Second this goes against everything that the whole Ishgar stands for. The Pergrande Kingdom and Kingdom of Fiore are Great shields of Ishgar. That is what late King David decided and King Raludo E. Fiore decided after Great Isgahran War and we would never turn our weapons against each other again. And last is you Konton!'' Bellona pointed a finger towards Konton emphasize her point. '' If you're as strong as the Magic Council says are you then why do you require us to help you?''
Konton looks at her then in sly voice speaks. ''Let's get one clear I don't need your help this merely an invitation. On which if your country decides join will determine you're and it's position in the new universal order. But I think the real reason is that you want challenge me to test my power?'' He then gave cocky all-knowing and smug like smirk to Bellona before continuing ''Well how about this? Hit me with your strongest attack. Just so you know I will retaliate afterwards.''
Bellona responded by glaring at the latter but then brought what look a small sparkly like cube from her pocket. Then suddenly the cube began to change shape. ''Alteration Magic!'' Bellona chanted. Suddenly hanging over her left shoulder stood a giant glittering Bazooka.
Konton looked at this with a slight but alert curiosity but in calm voice he said. ''Ah yes Alteration Magic the magic to change the function and shape of almost any item the user touches. You made good use of by those Stellanium cubes in your pockets. They are strong type of magic crystal said to be tougher than diamond. Found and exported from Kingdom of Stella. But I know you can do better than that.'' Konton then puts one his hands out and does come own gesture. ''Well then give me your best shot.''
Bellona growls at him and aims the bazooka at him. ''Guns Magic, Big Bang Five Magic Missiles! ''. Suddenly five magic circles appear in row in front of the firing part of the Bazooka in color order of Blue, Red, Brown, Yellow and Green . All aimed directly at Konton. With no less than second later five projectiles Water, Fire, Earth, Lightning and Wind fired upon Konton. But he just stood there with same cocky smirk. ''Your too arrogant for your own good Asshole!''
When the attack hit Konton Bellona was expecting a beaten, possibly dead Konton in its place but after the smoke had cleared. Their stood Konton completely unharmed behind him a damaged throne and wall. Konton laughed and then in a sarcastic manner ''Oh ow I'm so much pain somebody please put out of this misery. Laughs Really Bellona I know you can do better than that. Sure you may give the court members in our kingdom a good run for their money. But ultimately you lose too them. Having said that I know you haven't seen them fight yet. But considering I created Zeref someone who is feared far and wide around your world. What do think I can do?'' said Konton.
Bellona slightly livid and angry, though she managed to keep a calm face used her Alteration Magic again. Now changing her weapon form from a bazooka to gigantic sparkly Long sword in its place she then points he weapon towards Konton ''You want my best Konton then here it is.''
Bellona leaps to towards him intending cut of his head but when she struck the latter. He blocked it with his finger. ''Oh please'' And before Bellona could blink Konton excreted more of his Reiki. Just after that Bellona coughed up blood ''What the hell are you!?'' she manged to scream.
End Flashback
After that everything went black and around a few hours later Bellona woke up at the Medical wing of Palace. She later recovered the next day the though she was told by the medics that she was lucky to be still breathing and that Konton was not even using 10 percent of his power a thought that scared the hell out of her though and according to them the attack rupture her organs.
''Captain Bellona !'' Bellona turned around to see a young light brown skinned woman with dark green hair. She has a small, green oval-shaped jewel on the center of her forehead and small red earrings. She also wears a purple, jester-like hat with Pergrande's symbol she is wearing a blue shirt with ripped sleeves, and green pants held up by a buckle belt and also has reddish-pink bandages wrapped around her wrists, and seems to wear only black socks on her feet.
Beside her and a bald dark skinned man in a reddish-violet V-necked shirt under a pale-green jacket, with a furry blue trim around the collar. He also sports a pair of gold-framed glasses that have purple lenses, with one of these lenses being mostly broken.
''What is it Sue, Boze you both have something to report?'' Bellona addresses them. ''Yes captain we both just letting you know that Muramasa and Imitatia have completed their assignment.'' Address Boze
Bellona nods ''Keep me updated and return to your assignment''
The former wizards of Phantom Lord saluted before returning to their assignment leaving Bellona to her thoughts.
Magnolia's Shopping District 11:50am
''I wonder if Tatsuki would like this'' said Orihime to herself. Orihime was currently looking through the shopping district looking at all the vendors and all the shops that Magnolia had to offer. Right now she was currently looking for stuff to bring back for her friends. Kind of odd that even in the middle of the war that she can use her downtime to play tourist. The item that she was observing was black karate belt with a red lacrimas on it.
''That my fine lady is known as the Crimson Flame Karate Belt. It grants the user the ability to use fire with every punch and kick, high quietly, Able to be used for 20 years, made and shipped from the Pergrande Kingdom itself'' Said the street vendor. ''I'll take it how much?'' smiled Orihime
''For you fine lady only 10,000 Jewels''. After handing the money over to the vendor Orihime went back over to the few friends currently she was spending time with new old and friends to make it more clear, Rukia, Rangiku, Sherria, Wendy and Carla.
Carla being well Carla decided to give the girl scolding. ''Now what took so long do you how long we were waiting? Around 25 minutes we have to hurry if we make it to sign up you girls up for Miss Universe Contest''
''Don't worry Carla we have no need to rush we still around 4 hours before the contest starts'' Wendy said. Rukia then pipes in saying ''I'm surprised you care after all you aren't even entering the contest'' This causes Wendy to blush slightly ''Well the reason for that is because of one I don't think I would stand a chance and plus Carla thinks I shouldn't''
''I honestly I don't think Wendy should demean herself by entering that peeping show contest. Plus Wendy I don't to be mean but I think it would be extremely unfair considering some of the competition you would be facing it would unfair advantage '' said Carla. Of course Carla was referring to woman like the majority of the females in their guild. Along with a few woman in the Alliance like Rangiku and Orihime just to name a couple had great bust sizes Wendy not so much. This causes Wendy to sulk in corner of the street with a dark shroud over her head.
''Oh Carla don't be mean to her, I mean yeah your right she does not have rocking chest and glorious ass that I have, But then again she is only 13 years old so that to be expected. But hey I started with small chest when I was Wendy's age well not really that but smaller than it is right now. So trust me Wendy with determination and Luck you will grow to have a rocking hot body as well'' Rangiku proudly declared while doing a sexy pose. Carla however gave her a look of disproval and then spoke ''Wendy please no matter what woman you grow up to be please do not lower yourself to the level of a skank and become like her'' Carla said.
Rangiku looked offended at called being a skank and started to get into an argument with Carla of how woman should look and behave. In the meantime Rukia who had been looking at this with deadpanned expression thought I was right I am the voice of sanity here no scratch that in entire alliance. (But to honest is anyone in the alliance truly sane?)
Sherria then tried to lighten the mood by suggesting ''Hey guys why don't we grab something to eat I know this great restaurant in town. Plus we might as well grab something since we don't how long the contest will last''
As if on cue turned all their stomachs rumbled. ''Ahem perhaps lunch is good idea after all it's not healthy skip meals'' Rukia piped in. ''By the way Orhime what did you buy anyway ?'' Orihime then pulled the belt she bought for Tatsuki. ''I got this really cool belt that allows you to shoot fire just by punching and kicking.'' Rukia stared at her for moment she then thought about some of the people back in the living world. She could tell Orihime missed her friends and was also trying to look the bright side as well. Though this made her wonder though what was stopping Konton from targeting the those people or even the living world itself. Before she could think on it further Carla spoke up ''Ms. Kuchiki will please stay focus or we are all going to lunch without you'' This made Rukia snap out of trance and went to catch up with the others.
Magnolia 8-Island Restaurant 12:30 pm
The 8 Island Restaurant was currently busting with life and nearly over packed to brim with civilians and Alliance soldiers. However three out four soldiers in particular were currently making pigs of themselves. Ichigo Kurosaki was currently watching in disgust his three other fellow Acts of Order gorge themselves on the mountains of food currently on the table. How Yajima, the 8-island manger and head chef of the restaurant managed to keep up with appetite of three bottomless pits was beyond me.
''Hey can we get more food over here!'' Luffy said with in his food. Ichigo again watched this in disgust and then looked at his bowl of ramen. ''You know I think I just lost apatite'' Ichigo Deadpanned. This caught Naruto's attention ''Hey Ichigo you going to finish that ramen?'' Naruto with food in his mouth while accidently spitting food in his face.
''Dude would you please not spit food in my face. Second how can I eat anything after watching you guys eating like pigs''
''Sorry who's a pig?'' piped in Natsu who also had food in his mouth. ''I rest my case'' Ichigo deadpanned. ''Enough talk more food I'm starving'' Luffy yelled.
''Just coming Luffy'' a voice from behind Ichigo said which he recognized turning his head. ''Lisa! What hell are you doing here and what hell are you wearing?!'' Currently she was wearing 8-Island waitress uniform. ''Oh Mr. Yajima needed some extra help plus he said I get to keep this uniform.'' smiled Lisa. ''I also plan to use this outfit for the Miss Universe Contest.''
Of course you would be interested in that stuff damm perverted woman Ichigo mentally thought. Before he could talk about any further he again heard familiarly voice calling him. ''Hey Ichigo''Lisa then headed off when she heard another customer call her over.
Ichigo turn to the entrance to see Orihime followed by, Wendy, Rukia, Carla, Rangiku and Sherria. She ran towards them and gave Ichigo a big hug accidently putting his face between her large rack. ''Muffled It good to see you Orihime but could you please let go of my head I can't breathe''
Orihime just realized what she was doing and let him go. ''Sorry'' blushed Orihime but before Ichigo could take in some much needed air something else press his head towards two large soft objects.
''Hey Ichigo long time no see even if was not that long ago since we saw each at the celebration feast but still.'' Smiled Rangiku
''Rangiku let me hey hell go'' Ichigo muffled
Rangiku then let him go and pouted ''Still such a grump are you Ichigo. Is that anyway to greet a friend''
''With the way you act around him you would think he was more than a friend'' said Carla in disproving manner. This caused Ichigo to turn red from embarrassment again and Rangiku glared at her. ''What are implying cat?''
Rukia not wanting another argument piped in to change subject. ''Anyway I see you four are doing well?'' She then looked at the others to gobbling down their meals and looked slightly disgusted at their manners. ''Why don't we eat together then head off to the to the Miss Universe contest together''
This finally got Natsu and Naruto to stop eating when their heard contest. ''Oh yeah I heard about that. Lucy said she was entering that I think Erza in it as well '' said Natsu ''Sakura also mentioned entering that contest I think Ino and Hinata are too.''
''Well ha's great the more the merrier smiled Sherria but then a look of determination appear in her eyes. ''But I'm still going to win'' said Sherria ''Ha in your dreams. I'm going to be the winner of that contest'' cheered Rangiku. ''I think your both wrong because it takes more than beauty to win a pageant contest. It takes talent along with wits as well'' commented Rukia
This caused Lisa to overhear and laugh ''No offense Rukia but you also have to have a good outfit and beauty as well. I mean look at this outfit for example. It's just sexy enough to guarantee me the win'' ''Again you girls talking about that dam peeping show contest can't you find something to talk about.'' Butted Carla again
While the girls for the third time today started argue. Wendy and guys minus Luffy who was still eating looked at with the arguing females with sweat drops.
Unknown to them that at nearby table with a cup of tea they were being observed by woman in Gotlic Lolita looking outfit holding a transponder snail. ''This is Tia the targets will be moving to designated point shortly'' ''Roger keep an eye on them don't let them out of your sight and prepare stage 2 '' respond Bellona on the other side of the call.
Tia who was calm unlike her younger sister Sunna who was known as someone kept her emotions completely in check at almost all times. She knew she couldn't have the Nine Tails brat detecting her. She then looked at each of the acts one by one. Then thought to herself by looking at she tell they hide such sadness and fear behind those smiling faces. She smirked to herself looking forward to the battle ahead she was going to enjoy toying with her victim.
Magnolia Station 12:45pm
Sue and Boze were in a back street alley wearing cloaks in case anyone recognizes them. It has been over 7 years since they last been in Magnolia or Fiore in general. So it was unlikely anyone would recognize them but you could never be too sure.
''It's been awhile since we been home hey Sue?'' Boze said breaking the silence. Sue gave him an angry and replied ''Home? Are you serious Boze, Fiore stopped being are home after Phantom Lord's defeat at the hands of that detestable Fairy Tail.''
''I mean come on for god's sake after that battle anyone who was a member of Phantom Lord could not join any other Guild in country because they all hated and feared us.''
''Well you can't really blame them? After all we did try to blow up this entire city'' Boze shrugged
Sue then responded by waking him upside the head. ''Still then what is Gajeel's and Juvia's excuse? Those bastards were the top members of are guild. Are S-Class Wizards and they were at front lines of that war and yet still Makarov that old geezer found in his heart to forgive them and let them join their guild. Besides we just following Jose's orders, Che asshole I'm glad lost his magic again '' Sue was referring to Jose's defeat at the hands of Monkey D. Luffy at Kunugi Town.
Sue then respond by casting spell. ''Mirror Magic: See all Mirror, Locate Gajeel!'' A red hand mirror with gold outline appears in her hand and on the reflection of the mirror Gajeel appeared talking to Levy. ''See that smug bastard now. After all we did for him he leaves us behind and he was the one that started that war in the first place. Yeah it may have been Jose's orders too but still''
Boze looked at the reflection with slight sad expression. Sue in a way was right to be upset after all like Gajeel they grew in the crap conditions of Denish. Like Gajeel they were orphans that struggle to survie and when Gajeel became top dog in the city they were inspired that they both wanted to work for the latter eventually joining Phantom Lord not long after Gajeel. Were they both joined the latter in some his missions even though he was annoyed by their company.
After the war with Fairy Tail things started to go downhill they tried joining other guilds but they were always refused. Then not long after they heard that Gajeel and Juvia had joined Fairy Tail. At first they were happy for hem and even went to the Fantasia Parade to cheer them on. Afterwards they both hoped Makarov or Gajeel might come along and invite them to join the guild. But after months, nothing and so they made one of the most difficult decisions they ever made in their life they left the Kingdom of Fiore to seek a better life elsewhere.
It took a few months of traveling around the continent but eventually the made it Fenrir a small city just near north-east Border between the Country of Iceberg and Pergrande they ended after trying again and again to join an magic guild they came across but as faith would have it this was the place they met Bellona and the rest is history. However I will tell you about that later.
''It seems that you have trouble letting go of the past Sue'' Sue and Boze turned towards the end of the alley to see a young woman with long brown hair parted on the side, wearing a black shirt with a vest over it and red tie.
Sue just gave the woman a annoyed look ''Your late Yoshino but then again I guess we should expected it from someone who is a member of a failed dying race''
''Hey Sue that's a bit harsh'' Boze pointed out but Yoshino just raised her hand and replied ''There is no need to defend me Boze I know my race is a dying one and rightly we shouldn't even exist in the first place.''
''But we can talk about that later I found the target he Hyuga heiress is approaching we need only wait for the single''
Boze and Sue nodded ready for the battle ahead.
Outside Lucy's Apartment 1:00pm
''Thanks Chopper for carrying my shopping'' Lucy smiled at the smallest member of the Straw Hat Pirates, Chopper who was in his Heavy Point holding a couple shoe boxes and carrying a lot shopping bags ''No problem Lucy I'm happy to help, but I thought you were going to compete in the Miss Universe contest?'' Questioned Chopper
''Oh I still am, But also figured that I need to pick my best outfit, But because when coalition invaded they ravaged I'm apartment and took almost everything of value. I figured I need a new wardrobe as well. Plus if I'm going to win I need the best outfit. After all I'm going against the best in this contest.
''Well I can't say much about beauty I never really look at human girls. But I do know that Sanji really likes Nami and Robin and calls them beautiful almost every day.''
''Hmm curious is either of them entering the contest?'' Asked Lucy, she secretly she wanted to know as many people in the contest as possible so she and figure what outfit would be the best to wear. She already lost Miss Fairy Tail contest 8 years ago because of Erza's Gothic Lolita outfit. So she was determined to win this contest. ''Only Nami, Robin is in up North right now she was invited by some archeologists from Fiore National History Museum to come and help look for artifacts in what's left of the ruins of Nirvana.''
This caught Lucy's interest it had only been a 12 days ago that 1st and 5th Division had fought that battle. To think it been around 7 months since the war began. God it felt like it been like couple years had gone by. Though she wonder how long this war would last and she still hoped that this war would not last for much longer Though one good thing came out of this war was she was able to meet and make new friends. She was also looking forward to meet the other members of Straw Hats. She had already met a few during when the 1st and 5th Division team against Nirvana but after hearing stories about their adventures from Chopper she couldn't wait to meet the rest. The one in particular in his crew she wanted to meet was Luffy, after meeting theother Acts of order she felt a sense that she was with Natsu. The Acts of Order had different personalities for sure. But they all had things in common one was their devotion to their friends. The Acts of Order were different people but similar none the less. It was nice but also strange in a way.
''Lucy, Mr. Chopper!''called Yukino who was running towards. ''Yukino hey what brings you here?'' Asked Lucy ''Oh I just wanted check on you after hearing Magnolia was one the Cities that were invaded by the coalition I just wanted to see if would any help clearing up your apartment?'' Yukino smiled
''It's ok Chopper's helping me. Say are you entering the contest too?'' questioned Lucy
''Oh uhhhh yes Master Sting actually wanted both me and Lady Minerva to enter. But Lady Minerva is currently back making Mr. Law dinner'' Blushed Yukino
''Are the rumors true are they an item?'' Lucy slightly shocked ''I don't think so I think Lady just wanted to be nice. Plus looked very annoyed by it'' answered Yukino. Well it's none of business want to come in? '' Lucy gestured to the front of her apartment.
Before they entered her apartment building Chopper said something else that caught their attention. ''Hey Lucy, Yukino do you smell smoke?'' Just then something caught Lucy's eye.
That was coming from right behind her apartment or specifically the back garden of the apartment. This was odd because as far she remembered the only other residents that lived here were her Land Lady and young foreign married couple from Bosco. But the odd thing was the three of them were not back in town right now. Sensing something going on she took out Loke's key ready to summon him at any moment. Yukino taking Libra's key just case. Both her Chopper and Yukino then put the bags and quietly made their way to the back garden. Just at the door leading to it she peaked through the window to get a closer look. The garden had an average sized lawn and small bench at the corner of it. But that was not she was staring at. What she saw was a man that was dressed as a monk with long white hair crouching at a pile of burning leaves.
Chopper who started to panic slightly who had reverted to his Brain Point started screaming. ''Ah intruder, call the Police, call the Fire department, call in the Alliance Soldiers!'' This made Lucy look deadpanned at him ''Umm Chopper we are Alliance soldiers''
''Oh yeah I forgot! '' Chopper backtracked a little, Lucy then took charge again. ''Ok Chopper Yukino the guy seems to be distracted but let's get behind him as quietly as possible''
''You know I can hear you right?''
''Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Lucy and Chopper screamed in fright hugging each other as the man appeared right in front of them.
''Open gate of the scales Libra!'' Yukino summoned Libra who prepared to use her gravity magic on command.
The man then oddly enough produced two sweet potatoes probably what he was cooking from that pile of leaves and smiled at them. ''Can I offer you any of you three a sweet potato?''
''Ehhhhh?'' the three blurted out in slight shock after that chopper who was the first to recover instinctively sniffed them and then turned towards Lucy. ''They smell ok to me Lucy'' He then grabs one and took a bite. Yukino a bit hungry and didn't want to seem rude took one as well.
''These are not bad'' smiled Chopper how started chopping his potato now, (Excuse the pun). Lucy however was still not sure about the guy. ''Wait a minute who are you? And what you doing cooking sweet potatoes in other people's back gardens! Lucy comically yelled
The man raised an eyebrow as if this was the most stupid thing anyone asked him. ''Well I'm hungry and my name is Furido. Please to meet you miss'' The man named Furido said put his hand forward offering a handshake ''That only answers one of my questions. Why are you here?''
Furido then walked over the small pile of burning leaves again and took out another sweet potato. ''Me I'm just monk traveling the world for enlightenment.'' Furido answered in calm tone.
Lucy still didn't know if he should trust him but relented for now and went take seat beside the guy with Chopper who got craving for another sweet potato. Yukino like Lucy was weary and decided to keep Libra here just in case. ''So don't mind me asking but if you are monk what religion do you practice?'' Lucy inquired she being a former heiress to once powerful Heartfillia Corzan before it became bankrupt had study a lot about the other countries and their histories which of course included other religions one example being the Zentopia Church which was big practice in the western countries of Ishgar.
''Furido smirked at her answered ''Let me answer you three with a question. Who is your King?''
''My King?'' Lucy said in confusion ''If talking about our country Leader then King Toma E. Fiore then Yukino answered.
''No I mean not your ruler of your country.'' This still confused Lucy trying to get what the man was asking her Yuknio was trying to think the answer. However before either could answer him Chopper came with an answer.
''For me I guess I have two Kings my Crew because we all want to help each fulfill our dreams and Luffy who is our Captain and is the man that become King of the pirates!'' Chopper said with pride and determination.
This surprised Lucy a bit because as she remembered the little reindeer was quite docile. Furido looked at Chopper and then smiled. ''Well said little raccoon dog''
''I'm a Reindeer!'' Chopper Deadpanned. Furido ignored that and turned waited for Lucy to answer.
Lucy thought for a moment then answered ''I guess my king would be my Guild mates and everyone in the alliance.'' She smiled
Yukino smiled at this and she agreed ''My would also be the same as Lucy's.''
Furido then laughed ''The Naivety of youth, such a beautiful thing but also a foolish. That saying I don't think you three wrong. But my King is someone who will change this universe we live in. I used to think my King was the Daimyo of my country but not anymore. You won't I believe me she exists but I will tell you one of her titles. She is known as the Protector of Humanity.''
Lucy, Chopper and Yukino looked at him with a sense of caution and confusion. The way guy had said it was as if he was talking about person and not some deity. Lucy herself didn't believe in gods. Sure gods in her world did exist but after hearing about Chitsujo and Konton who were said to be even more powerful then gods of her world or even Acnologia. It made her wonder is there something possibly than higher Lord Chitsujo and Konton that could be consider god?
Chopper himself was neutral on the subject. The only gods he had heard were the ones in Soul Society and the Wizard World. Sure the World Nobles called themselves Gods but they were just humans with a wealth and power in his world. When he heard the stories about Lord Chitsujo and Konton it made think that maybe there is something that could be consider God. But he didn't care if there was none or not as he was with his crew he couldn't care less.
Yukino didn't care about gods regardless this was mostly because in her earlier child her parents who were deeply religious would discipline her and sister Sorano and when she grew up. She gave her previous religious practices due thinking that religion or belief of any kind wasn't going to help change the world or help her defeat Zeref.
Furido then stood up and out no were a monk staff or khakkhara as it was also called appeared in his right hand.
Lucy then asked again ''Curious when you mean protector of humanity do mean Lord Chitsujo I know you said her, But are sure you don't mean him?'' Furido then gave her a sort of dark look. ''Oh no but don't worry you will be meeting them her soon.''
Then out of no were Lucy felt something press to her back. She swore it was hand or something and then her body started glow pink and she started to shrink. She felt weak and fell to ground and few seconds later, when she looked at herself to her shock she had regressed to a child. Her clothes had also way too big for her.
''What but how?'' Lucy said in shock ''You will have me to thank for that'' said a voice behind her. When Lucy turned around she saw woman with dark blue hair framing her face, which is held back with a hairpiece in the same upside down. She wore a black and gold Pirate's captain coat with a light brown formal shirt with a white long bow. On her legs were black leggings and brown high heels. ''What I just used is my Devil Fruit power. It is called the Return-Return fruit which allows me to regress the age of my opponent by 12 years. Judging by your size I would say your 6 years old now''.
''Lucy! Libra restrain those two!'' Commanded Yukino ''At once mistress!'' Libra getting into position to use her gravity magic on the two. ''Yeah like I'll let ya do that Earth Style Rock Struggle Jutsu!'' said Furido. The earth started to shift around Yukino and Libra trapping them and restricting their movement.
Lucy tried calling Chopper to help only to see that he had been knocked Furido personally. She then did the only she could do now ''Open gate of Lion Leo!'' called Lucy waving Loke's key in flash of light stood Loke ready to fight.
''Your Handsome Knight in Shining armor is Lucy'' said Leo only to get a look of shock when he saw Lucy's current state. '' Uhhh what in Earthland has happened to you Lucy?'' ''Not now the time Loke we got bigger problems right now''
Loke then saw Ain and Furido ''Two on one is not really favorable odds but I'll fight for my owner regardless. Pity one my opponents has to be a lovely looking Lady '' Safe to say this caused to blush in embarrassment.
Ain made the first move and rush to towards using the same ability that she used on Lucy earlier. She struck Loke but to her surprise nothing happened. ''What my Devil Fruit should work on all creatures. Why hasn't your age decrease?'' This confused Loke until Furido spoke up. ''Didn't you read the dossier on his race Ain? He's a Celestial Spirit, one he's immortal and two he could be Hundreds, possibly thousands of years older than us so your Devil Fruit powers will be useless against him hell your ability probably won't work on most Arrancars or Soul Reapers .'' This irritated Ain a bit but she kept calm and pulled out her twin daggers instead holding them in a reverse grip. ''You could have mentioned that before I wasted my first move'' Ain snapped at him and then proceeded to attack Loke who respond by coating his hands with his Regalus Magic matching Ain blow for blow. However Fudiro then appeared behind him with khakkhara coated in chakra and aimed for his mid-section. This Loke cry out in pain and stumble allowing Ain to a round house kick coated in armament Haki to gut sending crashing to nearby wall.
''I'm afraid that will be enough fisty cuffs Mr. Lion. Ain, Furido stand down'' Loke then saw Muramasa, Immitia and Isis on top of the roof of Lucy's Apartment. He was in pickle now two one would have been hard enough to handle. But one on five he knew he had to escape and warn the Alliance that intruders were here. He didn't want to leave Lucy, Yukino and Chopper but in this case it was the only option he had and he would be back with reinforcements as soon as possible. But before he can make a run for it he found that he couldn't move his legs or his arms then he looked at nearby window and upon a closer look he saw through the glass what looked like threads all over his body keeping him in place. ''What the hell? When did?'' ''Like it? Great talent curtsey of our friend over here Muramasa'' Sneered Isis and gestured to Muramasa. After that she jumped of the roof top along with Muramasa and Immitia to join them on the ground level. She then started to circle Loke observing him like he was a piece of meat. Lucy on the hand was shock she couldn't believe one of women in front was her doll, her little sister Michelle. Why was she with the Coalition? But before she could think on this further Isis spoke up. ''Well done you two, you captured three of our targets already I must say after hearing about your great failures. I honestly was unsure if you could you pull off such an important task. Ain I want you to take these three to the designated spot.''
''Since when are you in charge of this mission In fact why are you here in the first? Weren't you supposed to be after the other target?'' Ain glared at Isis not liking she said earlier to her.
Isis merely shrugged at this ''Be assured Ain I've already assigned someone more capable for that target. Second I'm here because I'm about test my theory that will benefit us and our mission now leave''
This didn't seem to work with Ain but she complied none less grabbing Chopper and throwing him over left shoulder. She then approached Yukino and used her devil fruit reverse her age as well taking the rest of her Pieces and Ophricrus keys in process. Lucy was still in shock until she then noticed Ain went to grab her wrist. She went to grab Virgo's key. But then Furido snatched the pouch containing the rest of her Zodiac keys. Lucy let out scream of protest and proceeded to call for help. But before she could do that Immitia went over to her and crouched to her level.
''Don't make this difficult Big sister'' she said in calm voice. Lucy finally and asked with tears in her eyes ''Michelle why are you with these people?'' But before she could answer Furido used his staff to knock her out. This earned him a glare from Immitia. Furido merely replied ''I'm afraid you're going to have leave the reunion till later''
''If you are finished acting idiots I would like to get this under way'' snapped Isis she was starting to getting annoyed with interruptions. And she already had annoying people in her life in the form Tia and her sister Sunna. After that Ain was left dragging the knocked out targets with her Isis then proceeded to her theory. ''Now Muramasa now that's out of the way l'll need you to do one more thing for me''
''Which you had forgot mention what it is by the way when you interrupted our previous assignment and I don't want to waste my time '' Muramasa said ''Oh trust me what I have in mind will make you an even bigger force to be reckoned with then you already are. Now listen carefully because here is what I want you to do'' Isis grins darkly. The wind pick up making only a few around surrounding area her hear the awful plan that Isis had in store for Loke and Libra. But those who did hear had mixed expressions, Imitatia was shocked, Furido had an amused looked while Muramasa gave a slight chuckle. ''I like the way you think''
Magnolia Park 2:00pm
On top of the stage stood an overly excited man with blonde hair shape into a single. This of course was Jason a reporter from Sorcerer Weakley in front of him stood a floating magic microphone the audience was to the brim with Alliance soldiers, Civilians and some tourists from the other worlds. Near the back sat Renji, Gajeel and Pantherlily. ''Why did I agree to come here again?'' Gajeel grumbled ''Because Levy invited you'' Pantherlily answered
''Che I rather be training that fight I had with that Quincy back in Tenrou Island got me thinking. I'm probably the weakest dragon slayer in the guild. I mean Natsu and Wendy can even enter Dragon Force on a whim. Which means I still got improvement to go through.'' Gajeel said in determination. ''I guess your right on that Gajeel. But we all can get better after all'' Said Renji
This caused Gajeel and Pantherlily to look at him in confusion. ''Huh but you won most your fights in this war so far. I mean you faced Ivan and his guild alone and won. You beat that cultist bastard and from what your friends said you were one of the few to face Yhwach''
''True but that fight was still brutal and it not just that one got me thinking. I mean got careless when faced that Jerome guy from Avatar. I mean I could tell he was no were near as strong as some guys I faced but got careless and nearly lost me that fight or worse m life. So yeah I need to improve as well'' Renji said.
This caused Gajeel to grin savagely ''Well then guess we have got our work cut out for us then if we ever want to get to Natsu and Ichigo's level we just train harder. Because I refuse to be left behind '' Renji and Gajeel fist bumped at this.
''Hey Renji and Gajeel'' The three then turned around and saw Natsu and Ichigo walking towards. Hey Ichigo bout time got here you haven't seen Rukia have you? I haven't seen her since the chitsujo's speeh at Mercurius.
''Yeah we saw her she just went backstage to get ready for the contest why?'' Renji blushed a little ''Just wanted to give her my support'' he said sheepishly truth be told he stilled had feelings for Rukia but now he was also developing feelings for Flare Corona the red headed wizard of the Straw Hat Pirates which confused him slightly because he didn't know which one he liked more however before he could further think on this Natsu started sniffing the air.
''Hey Natsu what you sniffing at'' Renji asked curiously Natsu replied ''I'm trying to locate Lucy she said she be in this contest. But the problem is can't seem to get pin point her. She doesn't appear to here hell I can't smell her anywhere in Magnolia.''
This made Ichigo worry slightly he had gotten to know Lucy a little during the time 1st and 5th Division joined up and he still wonder how she could stand Natsu, he was such a hothead (Pun not intended) But a swell guy. At least he wasn't as annoying as Luffy. The thing only wished that Lucy didn't wear such a skimpy military jacket. ''Dude I'm sure she's fine she probably went to back to Crocus to get some stuff'' Ichigo tried to reassure him but this didn't seem to convince Natsu ''I'll catch ya later guys I'm going to Lucy's Apartment see if she is their'' After that he left without another word after the battle of Tenrou Island Natsu had mellowed out a little the fight with Zeref and finding out that Zeref was brother along with questioning of the things he said about his father Igneel really took a lot of him. Though reuniting with father cheered him up he was shaken a bit about it.
''Hey speaking where's were. Where is Straw Hat, Uzumaki oh and Happy?'' said Pantheriliy. ''Oh Naruto is trying to sneak a peak in the backstage at the girls changing and Luffy's back at restaurant still eating and Natsu said Happy went to fish merchants because their doing some sort of sale were members of the alliance get 80% off''
Pantherlily eyes widened slightly as did Gajeel and Renji's. They then looked at each other in a deadpanned expression when they heard that Naruto was being bold and stupid enough to sneak a peek ''He's going to die'' the all said unison
''Welcome, Wizards, Pirates, Ninjas, Soul Reapers and fans of all things So Cool to the First ever Miss Universe Contest'' Announced Jason in an over the top manner. 'Today several women from all five worlds will face each in this contest for the Title of Miss Universe'' The Audience cheer in excitement in particular one person was really excited. Sanji stood in front of the crowed with goofy perverted grin. ''Beauties, Beauties, he chanted. ''Now let's introduce our four judges. From Soul Reaper World a former Soul Reaper Captain, Now Shop Owner and one of Co-Commanders of the Alliance's Intelligence Division, Kisuke Uruhara'' Jason announced. Kisuke fanning himself replied ''It's a pleasure to be here'' ''Next we a powerful Ninja in is his own right, Said to rival the Kage and Author of the popular new Book series Make Out paradise. it's Jiriya of the Sanin. ''Great to be here'' smiled Jiriya. Next we have Rabian the chairman of the Scheherazade Theater.'' ''Thank you very much, Thank you very much'' he said. ''And finally we have a woman who no needs introduction. Her beauty has amazed, dazzled and captured the hearts of men and women all over her world. It makes me wonder why she is not entering the contest. Let's welcome the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock'' Boa Hancock had a look of pride on her face.
Though you're probably wondering why she is not entering the contest. Well reason it turns because she knew if she gained the official title of Miss Universe that she never able to get her hands on Luffy because she would be pestered by more men and woman from all five worlds. Another reason she heard that of her beloved's crewmate Nami was entering the contest and she figure if she won instead then she would get that attention and Luffy would be all hers.
''The rules of the contest will have two rounds the judges will give score cards after each contestant and the five with highest scores will then move to next round were you the audience will then vote on who you think should be Miss Universe so cool! Now let's get on to our contestants' first lets us start with the''
''Stop the show!'' suddenly a flashed appeared on stage blinding everyone in the area. After the flash dispersed their stood Sunna to her Left was Weyse and weird looking man looked a cross between a samurai and ninja this was Binz a captain in the Neo Marines. To Sunna's right Zephyr and rather sexy looking woman with seductive attire consisted of a dark-pink gi and disconnected arm warmers that reached down to her light-purple spandex shorts. She wore a pair of black low-heeled boots. One of her most apparent features was her long flowing maroon coloured hair, which fell down to her waist this of course this was Fūka one of Furido's henchmen. Sunna then pushed Jason out of the way ''Hiya everybody I am Sunna of Pergrande Quartet and Current Miss Pergrande. It is so cool to be here. Today we have to special show brought to you by the Coalition and sponsored by his soon to be Emperor of universe Konton.'' Safe to say this made the audience start to get panicky and flee. ''The coalition is here were all going to die'' screamed a female civilian. ''How did they get past defenses?'' screamed a male civilian.
''Now that we have your attention let us begin start us off Weyse…'' '' Raijin Senkei!'' Just then a huge flash lightning was about to strike were Sunna was standing and if weren't for Zephyr who had pulled her out the way just in time it probably would hurt like hell considering who it came from. ''Now that's just rude'' pouted Sunna. ''You know what else is rude little girl? Disbursing people when trying to relax and have fun.'' Glared Yoruchi who was currently in a tiger skin bikini as she too was entering the Miss Universe contest and behind her was equally pissed off Rangiku, Lisa and Sherria ''Agreed it is also foolish of you to think that of you can take on all of us'' Glared Erza who was in purgatory armor behind her Tsunade, Nami, Evergreen and Rukia. ''As you can see my dear it is in your best interest to surrender'' Jiraiya who got in taijutsu stance along Hancock was getting ready to fire a pistol kiss. Kisuke was tending to Raidan who had passed out from fright.
''Oh no were surrounded woe as me what ever will we do'' cried Sunna in dramatically sarcastic manner and gesture to Weyse, Fūka and Binz all who had confidant looking faces while Zephyr had look disgust displeasure of what was going to happen. ''Do you think that if we attacked you here that wouldn't have sort of plan and think about why would we attack a place crawling with Alliance soldiers? Speaking of which you all look so strong and tasty '' Sunna clasped her hands licking her lips.
Kisuke who was listening in on the conversation thought it over what Sunna said for a second. Then it hit him they wanted as many of the Alliance soldiers here but why?
''Now where was I before I was rudely interrupted? Oh now I remember take us as away Weyse'' Sunna gestured towards Weyse on which respond by pointing her hands towards the sky were giant black magic circle appeared above the stage. Weyse then got to her knees a started to chant in some weird dead language.
Yoruchi started to feel a chill in air not out off out fright or the temperature but the magic in air it had suddenly felt dark and evil. She looked around saw everyone else either had a look of concern or worry but she could delve on it further Kisuke shouted. ''Stop the girl before she finishes incantation!''
Not missing a beat Lisa started off ''Cero!'' Lisa shouted fired a Cero at Weyse, Rangiku then followed up ''Growl Haniko, Neko Rinbu '' on which her sword turned into ash and fired a tornado of ash at her target.
Just then however a wall of vines appeared canceling their respective attacks. Binz then appear in front in the wall dramatic pose ''You shall not get past me'' He then launched more vines at the girls on which before anyone he could blink were cut swiftly thanks to the impressive speed of Yoruchi herself who did so with just her bare hands .
Erza then attack by trying to strike Weyse with her sword only to be blocked by Zephyr who used his robotic arm and Tsunade then charged at him by trying strike with back kick to head on which this time he blocked with his regular arm covered armament Haki.
''You were foolish attack coalition scums! And you wizard'' Boa Hancock approached as she addresses Weyse '' You Shall now fall to my overwhelming beauty today. Behold the beauty of thee most beautiful woman in the universe Pistol Kiss !'' Fired a kiss at Weyse only for Fūka to jump in the way and take hit. However while she was expecting her to turn into stone for some reason she did not. ''Most beautiful woman in the universe? Please you so full of yourself'' sneered Fūka.
Before Hancock could respond the black circle suddenly fire a beam of black energy at the sky. Dark thundery Clouds started to form and portal opened in the middle of the sky. What came out of it looked like a large pillar structure appeared with horns and one eye. ''Behold I present to you the Wicked God Higurenokami!'' Weyse announced.
Meanwhile
Ichigo who been watching for little while decided to take the direct approach and get ready to attack whatever that thing to came out of the portal. He took air rushing towards it with Renji and Gajeel being carried by Pantherlily using his wings not far behind him. However the minute they took to air they found that they couldn't move and Ichigo felt a strong familiar presence.
''Long time no see Kurosaki and can sense you grown stronger since our last fight'' Muramasa appeared through a tear in space in from behind him was Isis, Furido and Immitia standing on what looked like a red magic circle. ''Muramasa!''
''So this is the famous Ichigo Kurosaki, Hero of Soul Society and one that killed Yhwach the first time?'' Isis addresses him and like before with Loke was also observing the latter like a piece of meat. Muramasa saw the look in her eyes and summoned his sword and pointed towards her neck. ''Back off woman he is my prey''
This didn't scare Isis that merely gently pushed the sword away from her ''Sorry Muramasa but afraid you will have skip this fight. Mr. Kurosaki here knows how you fight. So it would be unwise for you to face him. Not only because he is a lot stronger than before last time you two fought and you already have another target that you been assigned too'' ''Muramasa'' Immitia placed a hand on his shoulder. ''Remember your ambition, your goal, you can't die before you achieve it''
Muramasa didn't like being ordered around but he saw Immitia's point and relented. If he did fight Ichigo there is a higher risk he would die again and never get a chance to get his revenge. However he could comment further.
''I'm not letting anymore of my friends get killed!'' shouted Ichigo and with that like instinct or just feeling he excreted his Spiritual Presence freeing himself from the threads. ''Ahhhhhh'' he pushed back everyone near him either sending them plummeting to ground or just knocking them a few paces. Gajeel still being carried by Lily, Isis, Muramasa were only ones still a float while Furido, Immitia and Renji were sent plummeting to the ground.
''Wind Style: Wind Palm Jutsu! Furido extend his palm forward towards the ground to soften his impact, landing on his feet afterword. ''That would've left a nasty scar'' he mused he then and saw were Renji that fallen and made a human shaped creator upon his impact he then looked to see that Immitia had fallen as well nearby. ''Ow thank god for Soul Reaper durability.'' grunted Renji getting up not bruised but still slightly sore but that mostly Ichigo excreted his power then from impact. After brushing the dust he saw that Immitia got up without scratch on her as well. ''Well the hell who are you. I can tell you aren't a Soul Reaper or Arrancar.''
''How observant and yes I am not but also I am not human either. But I'm not in the mood to play twenty questions with you shall get started with our battle?'' She brought out a flower shaped shield with the symbol of the Orecian Seis and a sword with a rose motif, a spiked handguard and a large wide blade.
Renji smirked ''Fine by me''
Furido watched this exchange with amusement but decided it was time he started to find his own opponent. He looked up to see that Gajeel was still being carried by Lily. Wind Style: Great Breakthrough.
The attack hit Gajeel and Pantherlily before register the attack coming towards them sending into crashing them into a nearby building. After which Furido ran after them the two ready to engage them in combat.
''Well it looks like Furido and Immitia have found their opponents and speaking of which you should be off to find your opponent Muramasa but don't worry my 'gift' will help you'' Isis said. Muramasa gave her one last glare before entering another tear in space. Isis then turned her attention to ichigo. ''Now Mr. Kurosaki now that it is just the two of us it's to for me to see if the rumors of your'e so called strength and power is true.
Ichigo responded by giving her of most terrifying of glares and readied Zanputako . ''Trust me lady I'm the worst kind opponent for you''
Meanwhile with back with Stage group
Weyse went on ranting again. ''Oh wicked God I command thee give me the power to the plunge this entire city into chaos!'' Just then the statue opened in the middle and Weyse floated up and entered inside after it closed a black mist started to pour out of the statue. ''What the hell is this stuff?'' Tsunade wonder out loud just then she heard a scream
''Ahhh get away from me!'' a nearby female wizard scream running from nothing another person a male pirate who was holding a dagger started screaming frantically and swinging his dagger around at anyone nearby. Another person a soul reaper this time started angrily yelling at random people and started threatening people with his Zanputako. But not just people were effected animals such as cats, dogs and birds started to attack each other and anyone that came close. ''It seems that thing that girl just summoned is causing everyone to go crazy.'' Tsunade said
''Right on the money old hag.'' Weyse taunted from inside the Wicked God ''What you see is the magic of the god Higurenokami also known as Erosion Magic. It is a powerful illusion Magic that is powered by the negative emotions in the area. It also allows me to effect the targets minds. What they see right now is what truly believe they are seeing or a least what want them to see.''
''Then simple solution is to kill you'' Boa Hancock rushing towards her with surprising speed and her legs covered in armament Haki.
''Cero!'' Hancock just to use that leg to block a cero aimed at her by Lisa who was wearing her hollow mask. ''Yadomaru what are doing!'' cried Yoruchi shocked that visored would attack a comrade. However before she could ponder on this she blocked a sword swung at her with bare hands by Rangiku who had angry expression on her face.
''What the hell is going on here?'' Tsunade wonder out loud still engaged in combat with Zephyr along with Erza. Interesting enough Kisuke had the answer. ''It's the God that girl summoned. Like she said they think truly believe they are attacking the enemy.'' Just then Radian tried to attack Kisuke only for him to knock him out with quick chop to the head. ''See what I mean'' He gestured to the unconscious man. Just then he dodge a cero this from Hiyori who was in the crowd also as you can guess was under the influence of the God's Magic.
''Woah the dossier was right the magic does affect the minds of the civilians. Well then now that my new friends are keeping you Alliance idiots busy I can go and get my target. Oh and Zephyr!?'' Sunna called
Zephyr turns his head slightly towards her. ''Make sure that hobo looking soul reaper and the Toad sage are not harmed. I would like fight them when I'm done.''
Rukia then appeared then flashed step in front preventing her from escaping. ''I'm afraid you're going to have to change your plans''
''Sorry but I don't like fighting girls. Solar Magic: Solar Flare!'' Sunna frowned and pointed her hands towards her head and a blinding light suddenly flashed before Rukia's eyes. When the light finally stopped Sunna was gone.
Dam it cursed Rukia but before she could go after her path was blocked by Evergreen who you guesses it being affected by the God's magic.
''Fairy Machine Gun: Leprechaun!'' a burst of particles of light shot themselves towards Rukia who flashed step in order to avoid the attack. Let's make a note while Rukia is stronger than Evergreen she herself has said that she can't freeze particles of light or light in general. However she could this do. Evergreen then found her legs firmly frozen to the ground. Thanks Rukia's Zanputako who had appered behind her. ''Sorry Evergreen but I'm afraid this is only to make sure don't anyone else.'' Rukia then turned towards Tsunade and Erza who were stilled locked in a stalemate Zephyr. Lady Tsunade , Erza I'm going after the girl'' Flash stepping away.
Kisuke then shouted ''Listen everyone we need to destroy that God it is the main source of the Magic being cast.''
''Leave that to me Kisuke'' Yoruchi Flash stepped towards him carrying a tied Rangiku and badly beat up Binz on her Soldiers. Kisuke Everyone else that is still in control either fight the intruders or anyone being controlled by Magic.''
''How is it that some of us are not being affected by it?'' Yoruchi asked. ''When I was reading about this world's history I remember reading about when Laxus Dreyer and the Thunder Legion fought this thing. Laxus was not affected by the God's Magic but his Legion was until he snapped them out of it. I can only guess those with a good amount power be it Spiritual, Magic or Chakra are not affected.''
''Then shouldn't everyone from the Pirate world be affected?'' she inquired. ''Only those without Haki'' Ksuke answered. Remember Luffy's fight with Zeref and how his Armament Haki protected him from his curse. Which if you read the dossier Zeref got from the God Ankhseram. My guess that Haki has a natural immunity of protecting oneself from abilities casted by gods however the resistance for those with immense power I don't think it will last.''
''What do mean?'' she asked ''According to the dossier, Higurenokami's Magic is powered by negative emotions and as you guess with majority of Magnolia being affected by that. It means it I will get stronger so much that it might start to affect even us.'' Kisuke then continued ''Jiriya I need you to retreat to Crocus let everyone know that the Coalition is here.'' Jiriya nodded and then turn to Hancock signaling her approval for him to go.
Yoruchi eyes widened in horror at hearing what Kisuke said she then knew what she had to do and so stepped forward to confront Weyse.
''You psycho priestess girl I thinks it's time for you to feel the pain and fear that you and your so called God are giving everyone else.'' glared Yoruchi
Weyse laughed at this ''Do you who you face Soul Reaper. Higurenokami is god so powerful that it to be sealed long ago by ancient wizards. Just because no one could kill it'' she taunted
Yoruchi then gave Weyse a dangerous and terrifying smirk ''Do you that we Soul Reapers have lots of names. But favorite has god to God of Death.''
Weyse then look of pride and confidence then turn to fear for first time that day. ''So Weyse are prepared to judge for your sins?''
Outside Magnolia Park, 2:15pm
Muramasa stepped out of another portal in space to see the chaos just like inside the people were going crazy.
''Interesting it's almost as destructive as time a cause rebellion in Soul Society'' inquired Muramasa
''Funny how faith operates isn't?'' and then a flash of light suddenly caught Muramasa's vision, blinding him after it stopped he saw Sunna in front of him smirking.
''Hey Mura see you are still as moody as ever'' Sunna in cheerful tone. Muramasa respond by just glaring at girl. ''Oh no need to give me that look have you found your target yet?''
''Not yet'' turning his back on her opening another portal, this made Sunna pout a little she didn't like being ignored. Out of the portal came three figures one was pale skinned light green wearing a black spandex suit, with black blind fold and what looked like golden compass needles that cover her feet and go upward, towards her mid-thigh. Another woman with green with short green in what oddly looked like a nurse's uniform and black spiky armband on her on left arm that extends to her middle finger. A tall man wearing black and gold armor with long brown hair that almost looked like a Lion's mane these people were the Eclipse forms or counterparts Libra, Ophiuchus and Leo slash Loke respectably. Sunna smirked at the new arrivals, ''Oh and who are these new recruits?''
Murmasa just answered ''My new servants curtsey of Isis'' After that all three spirits got down on one knee and bowed to Muramasa. ''What is it you bidding our master?'' Ophiuchus asked.
''You are to look anyone that is currently not being affected by Higurenokami's magic and kill them'' Leo smirked at ''Good I'll kill any woman I come across''
''Sadistic as always Leo '' Mused Ophiuchus ''It shall be down Master'' after that the three quickly scattered to find their opponents.
Muramasa then blocked a chain with his arm that was aiming at his head both he and Sunna then saw the wielder of the said chain, Who was a red haired man with a phoenix like birthmark on fore head. Beside him as Mist ninja with black long hair, This Puzzle the Captain of the Phoenix Pirates and Ganryu, Hidden Mist Jonin.
''Well I've see you guys in dossier you are Puzzle the Phoenix a of 100,000,000 berries and you are Ganryu a high ranking Jonin of the Hidden Mist. '' Mused Sunna
''I don't care who they are. No human attacks me'' Musamasa responded by excreting his spiritual Presence shattering the chain in the process.
Puzzle brought out another chain''Well guess you aren't push over then. So Ganryu l'll take werido with make-up you handle the girl'' ''Right'' Ganryu respond
''Oh no I hate One on One fights they are so boring. I will fight you both'' Sunna stepped up front.
Ganryu was slightly why would any opponent fight a fight that would have disadvantage.
Muramasa was not happy about being ordered again but relented and hung back. ''So boys I wonder will taste good?'' licking her lips. Little did her two opponents that they were about to lose more than their lives in this battle.
Pergrande Kingdom, Tyr Park 2:30pm
Tyr was a large city just bordering the bordering the county of Bellum. The City had one great purpose out of the 12 cities in Pergrande it served as country's main transportation center and trading hub were Airships fly into and out the city each day taking people and cargo around Ishgar. While there was another city just south at shoreline called Ægir that city was not really suited traveling from and to other the countries. This mainly because the ocean to the south of Ishgar was quite lawless and home to many pirates and thieves and thus not entirely safe for traveling and Tyr served purpose right now to a certain Prince by the name of Zacchary who was carrying and exhausted Nike in his arms.
''Your Majesty please I can still fly. Let me go we don't have time'' panted Nike Zacchary smiled at his little Exceed companion ''Nike I'm honored to have you as such loyal Advisor and friend but as a friend to you can't just sit idly by and watch you exhaust yourself to death, you have been flying all night after all. Besides an Airship will get us to Fiore faster if we just need to find the right one.'' Zacchary then found it the S.S Lady Elisha an Airship with a red gold design with Kingdom's Symbol on its side. This ship built in honor of late Queen and as symbol of friendship between Pergrande and Fiore saying that despite the late Queen's death that they would always remain allies. It was made by various Magic guilds in Peregrande personally captained Aether.T Hawkins a retired Wizard from the Blue Pegasus guild and a former Member of the Previous Pergrande Quartet. It was also made as symbol between the countries as Queen Elisha biggest accomplishments throughout her life was that she strengthen that alliances and trade agreements that Pergrande with the other countries in Ishgar. But she also had great friendship with King Toma E Fiore and his late wife the Queen of Fiore.
Zacchary for first time that day sighed in relief ''Please let us not be too late''
