Magnolia Park, Kingdom of Fiore 3:00 pm
Frustration and pain that would the two be words Renji would describe having right now and what he was feeling. Not long ago he just started a fight with this weird flower looking girl and despite having inflicted good amount damage all over her body but she did not seem to be wearing down or at least seem exhausted. In fact the girl was covered in bruises and slashes that would have killed normal human and there was fact that despite having slashes no blood came out from them and the damage did not appear to be affecting her fighting ability at all. He on another had also received some damage from the girl and got few pretty bad wounds particularly around his legs. Yeah some reasons this girl kept aiming for his legs.
''Roar Zabimaru!'' Suddenly his Zanpatuko became a six segmented blade and when swiped it turned into a sort whip like blade which he launched towards her.
Imitita responded by using the flower shield, which she had only been really using to defend herself and a launch it at towards canceling the attack, in then returned to her hand thanks to a vine that it was attached.
''Heh I got to admit you are defiantly one hard opponent to put down'' Renji admitted ''Even though you are defiantly have magic power at least that is what I sense. You got the durability of a Soul Reaper. Even though you aren't one, by the way what are you anyway?''
Imitatia relented her attack ''Well it appears you are not as dumb as the dossier says. But if you must know I am a doll. Not a true living being and hence why I feel no pain.''
Renji mentally thought of that weird perverted lion doll or soul mod of Ichigo's, Kon was that his name? He signed ''Ok so that explains why there is no blood. But hey I faced worse challenges before. I mean I did defeat an immortal after all and pretty much scattered his body across winds and did help in the battle Yhwach and survived ''
''Yes and you lost a fight to Jerome from Avatar someone who clearly not as strong as the latter'' Imitatia pointed out.
''True I got careless at that those fights'' sighed Renji. ''But from what I saw from that fights and how I did in them. It just means I still have a lot to learn. Funny I'm over hundred years old and I still have a lot to learn, guess you are never too old to learn. Heck I will admit I'm no were near the level Acts of Order but that does not mean I can't make it to that level someday. That is the difference between us and you Coalition bastards. We learn, we adapted, we work together, we get stronger, And it's one main reasons we will win this war.'' Renji said with pride.
''I think we have talked enough Soul Reaper and I think it is time that I start getting serious now. Did you notice throughout this entire fight that I have not used my magic even once?''
Renji took notice at this threat and prepared for whatever attack she had in mind. Just out of no were thorny vines shot of the ground behind him. He barely had enough time to flash step away before one of the thorns pierced through his right leg.
''Ack! Renji cried out in pain. He then proceeds to cut the thorns away before clutching his leg in pain. ''What the hell that's not supposed hurt so much''
''Allow me to explain the reason I did not use any magic in the fight thus far I because I was looking out for what is your most vulnerable weak points. After all even if you are a Soul Reaper you are still a mortal and thus still have weaknesses. By observing you movements and combat skills throughout our fight have determined that your weak points are at your legs to be more specific your musculoskeletal system. Which most living creatures have to move the limps on their bodies. This system has certain weak points in the body that if damaged enough can even paralyze the body. One example of this system is the joints which after fighting I see that you use flash step a lot in your fighting style which still requires leg movement. Their for hitting the joints in your legs was the best option to the most effect way to stop you from moving''
''If you weren't using any magic how did you survive my attacks from earlier?'' Renji asked clutching his leg slightly in pain
''Like I said Soul Reaper I am Doll not true living being, Even if you were to cut off my head I still would not die and it is just part my very being, now were we?'' She then launched more thorns at him. Renji was barely able to dodge this time.
Shit I see what she trying to do. She trying to stop my legs from moving, if I can't move my legs I'll be near helpless. But wait why does she not just go for my spine? If she did that then all my movement might stop unless her goal is not to kill me but why? Renji mentally thought.
Meanwhile
''Iron Dragon's Roar!'' Gajeel firing his signature roar at the Furido.
''Earth Style: Mud Wall Jutsu'' Furido using hand signs and conjuring up a mud wall to block the attack ''Oh come on kid I know you can dish out better attack than that''
''Piss off old Man you haven't even used single attack on me. All you have done is blocked or dodged'' Gajeel glared at the latter.
''Ahhh the naivety of youth such beautiful thing you know you kind of remind of my son. He has a bit of violet temper as well. You also look just around his age too.'' Furdio reminisced
''Oh am supposed to give a damm?'' Gajeel said sarcastically.
'Nah not really just wanted to point it out though, though he is also rude to his elders just like you, unlike you however that boy ultimately turned out to be a disappointment. Honestly I don't why Konton deiced to indoctrinate him the first place, then what goes inside that mad man's head is beyond me. Either way my son is useless without Nine-tails chakra I that placed inside him. ''
This causes Pantherlily to call out, who was still carrying Gajeel '' How can you say that about your own son in fact how could you do that too you own son? '' He raged.
''Oh so the cat does talk. Then again I saw a talking reindeer not too long ago so I shouldn't be too surprised about anything anymore. To answer your question my dear feline I only gathered that chakra so I could one day use him to set my country back on the right path. Though I will admit originally when I met his mother and he was born I willing to be a good father and a nice peaceful life. But you want to know what changed my mind? ''
''Iron Dragon's Lance!'' before the latter could answer Gajeel turned his arm into a lance and tried to strike on the head. Only for him to use staff to block it though it pushed him back few paces.
''Now that is just plain rude kid'' Furido frowned ''Hmm just out of curiosity why haven't any of you two, been effected by the Erosion Magic yet?''
''You think a little Illusion Magic from some dead beat God is going to affect me? Please Gods are powerful yeah, but the strongest beings in our world were always the Dragons and their magic was more terrifying then them. '' Sneered Gajeel. He then mentally thought although it was not affecting him right now but it probably won't be like for long before it does. He did feel how sinister it was.
''Oh can you say that that for all of you?'' Furido smirked and suddenly Pantherlily just let him go. Causing Gajeel to crash to the ground but thankfully he managed to land on his feet.
''Hey Lily what the hell?'' said Gajeel but when he turned around Lily was now in his Battle Form who then proceed to try slash with his sword. Gajeel turns his own arm into a club to block it. ''It seems the little kitty cat merely had delayed reaction to the Erosion Magic.'' Chuckled Furido
''Ah well better late than ever.'' He then proceeds to twirl his staff a top his head and wind started to gather at the top of it. ''Wind Style: Shakujō Twister!'' A twister launches from the staff and sent it heading towards Gajeel.
Gajeel could sense the twister coming towards him. But there was couple of problems he was facing if he moved out the way Lily would get hit.
''Gah!'' the powerful wind pushed Gajeel and slammed right into Lily knocking them both down.
Gajeel recovered quickly and tried to attack with another Dragon's roar. However he stopped in shock when he heard a filmier voice. ''Solid Script: Fire!''
Just then flaming words that spelt fire came out no were struck Gajeel in the back again sending to the ground.
''Shorty?'' he gasped to see Levy was the one that attacked him. She then proceeds to fire another solid script fire at him, which he dodged this time.
''Shorty snap out of it, it's me Gajeel.'' But Levy just ignored him and instead and attack him again which blocked this time with an Iron Club. He was then slashed by Lily who had recovered, knocking him to the ground again.
''Oh how the tables have turned. Just moment ago kid, you and I were at a stalemate and but now you are getting beat to pulp.'' taunted Furido
''Only because you and your coalition assholes had to resort to manipulating our comrades with some ancient god to it, hell if you didn't that have we be kicking you asses into next week.''Gajeel shouted back.
''True I won't deny that it's thanks to that little psycho priestess Weyse that things are going more smoothly. But honestly in war it's not how many battles you it's what battles you win, Take the Third Great Ninja War example, the Hidden Rock lost the war due to two reasons, one the Kannabi Bridge was destroyed which prevented to get suppiles to their troops and two because Minato Namikzae single handily stopped an 1000 of their ninja. So then shall we continue? '' Furido then clocked his staff in chakra which gave off a similar effect too Asuma's flying swallow move. Then he charged at Gajeel with it intending to strike him.
Luckily thanks to Gajeel's quick dragon slayer reflects this was no problem in getting back on his feet in time and blocking with an Iron Club, he nearly forgot about Lily took another swipe at him. But then he also blocked it with another Iron Club with his other arm. This made it slightly harder as he was currently locked with to in a fight with both at the same time.
However Levy came up and attacked him again ''Solid Script: Sword!'' slashing him in the back, this caused to lose grip on who was in front of him and giving Furido a chance over power and to hit him, once again and flooring him.
''Dammit'' muttered Gajeel in pain. While he had no quarrels in fighting Lily despite his current state of mind, or almost anyone else in the guild, but when came to Levy however that were he drew the line. The reason because of what happened with the war with Phantom Lord. Gajeel attacked Levy and her team to get the Fairy Tail guild angry enough to attack to them and start the war. As you all know that war resulted in Phantom Lord getting the asses kicked and Gajeel getting beat down from Natsu Dragneel.
Not long afterwards Makarov approached Gajeel and who had been living in the ruins of Phantom Lord Guild hall and offered him to become a member of the guild, also telling him that his guild mate Juvia Lockser had joined Fairy Tail, and Makarov had come to offer him chance to join the guild, sighting that he forgive him for damaging their guild, he will however not forgive him for attacking Levy and her team. But he degreased and wanted to help Gajeel go down the right. Gajeel having been humbled his loss to Natsu and moved my Makarov's mercy decided to joined.
Gajeel eventually after getting know Levy more and more, felt guilty for he did to her and her team and promised himself that he would never hurt her again ever, even if she was under the influence of some Wicked God's magic and was not in the right state of mind.
''On come on kid, you were giving me hell moments ago, what happened to that fiery spirit?'' Furido taunted slamming his staff on his head to keep him down, Gajeel didn't answer. ''Whatever kid your lucky I have orders not to kill you otherwise I would end your life right here.''
This Shocked Gajeel a little I mean what the hell do they want with him? However before he think his world went black.
Meanwhile, Near the Fairy Tail's Guild Hall
Toshiro Hitsugaya I had a one thing on his mind right now, how annoying. He just came of the Fairy Tail's Hot Spring after relaxing bath and to get away from Rangiku's sexual innuendos for one day. Saying that he didn't hate her he just didn't trust her to behave around him in this place and he needed to at least have one day away from her, there was another reason of course. About a year ago, she tried to get him to bathe in one hot springs back in Soul Society after she suggested they get some down time from all the paper work, though at the counter the receptionist thought he was a child an told them children weren't allowed on their own, because of his appearance he was of course mistaken for one and Rangiku just said they would go to the same bath, which he rejected immediately, he was also annoyed with the mix up to his age . But he had gotten used to it, he still he found it annoying as hell.
Anyway back to what was currently going on. He just got out of the bath only to be attacked, by Max Alors, Samui and what was most shocking of all, Momo Hinwari, his sister, or least he always thought her to be like a sister to him and the did two grow up together. Right now he was currently facing all three of them.
''Momo whatever the hell is going with you, snap out of it.'' Toshiro shouted at her hoping to snap her out of it. However he received no response.
''Of course that would be easy too'' He sarcastically muttered to himself.
''Sand Wave!'' Max shouted launching a large torrent of sand at him at him, though Toshiro merely dodged it with ease.
Samui then followed up by trying to strike him on the head with her tanto which he responded by grabbing her hand stopping her in tracks. Proving that despite his small size and frame that he was quite strong, I mean Shunsui did say that he would surpass him someday.
Momo then made her move. ''Kido# 1: Sai'' putting her index fingers in front of her in an appetent to paralyze him.
Toshiro saw through this in time and pulled Samui in front of him. Samui's body twitched for a second before her arms then locked themselves behind her back and stood still temporally paralyzing her. She then fell to ground twitching slightly. She was still alive of course but she was out of this fight.
''Sand Rebellion'' Max shouted firing a wave of sand started to whirl around Toshiro. Toshiro merely responded by excreting his spiritual presence blasting the sand away from him. Which the resulting backlash of sand temporally blinded Max allowing Toshiro to flash step in front of him and knock him out with the hilt of the Zanputako.
''Snap Tobiume: fläk!'' shouted Momo, She stabbed Zanputako into ground and around of fireballs generated in the air. The said fireballs started to take shape in form of birds and launched themselves at Toshiro. Unlike Momo's regular fire these birds seem to have some form of sentience and instead of slamming right into when they reached Toshiro they started fly around him in a circle like motion as if they were waiting for moment to strike. Which they did one by one by one, though he was nearly caught off guard by the attack he was otherwise unharmed with only slight burns but he then flash stepped away to avoid any more damage.
''I see you've been practicing Momo if you were in better state mind to talk I would give a pat on the back for finding new ways to use your shikai. It would have definitely hurt more if I was still the old me but I've gotten stronger since then. In saying that I still have to knock you out, sorry I'll make it up to you later.''
However before he could make a move, black wires suddenly appeared out of nowhere and wrapped themselves around Momo's arms, legs and waist, immobilizing her in the process. They pull towards what look like an operating table.
''What the?'' Toshiro said in shock, and then he heard giggling.
''Sorry I was starting to get bored watching that one-sided fight. So I decided to make things more interesting'' said a female voice out of nowhere.
''Show yourself or are you too much of a coward'' snapped Toshiro
A woman with green hair in what looked like a nurse's outfit appeared next to the operating table. ''If you insist''
Toshiro glared at her with a stare that could freeze over even coldest of people over.
''Oh I'm sorry if you were having so much fun, beating up your comrades to pulp, or are you upset that nurse Ophiuchus isn't giving you special treatment like this little girl.'' She smirks in evil manner, stroking Momo's cheek to mock him Toshiro.
''You have 10 seconds to let Momo go or unleash such power you wish you were never born!'' Toshiro demanded.
''Oh scary that would scare me if I was human and I could die, but I'm Celestial Spirit and we are immortal and I how powerful you are so I'm just playing smart. Still despite with all your power you can't kill an immortal.''
Then much to her confusion Toshiro smirked. ''Well then too bad for you, because I promise you after this fight you wish you weren't Immortal and could die''
This cause Ophiuchus to step back a bit in fear but she composed herself quickly to hide it. ''Oh well I guess I should get started with the operation then'' snapping her fingers and drill like machine appeared out of nowhere and placed itself directly at Momo's neck. '' You know I heard that Soul Reapers are very hard kill, however I'm sure if I drilled a large hole right through her neck it would end her life quickly and painfully. What do think you should I give it a try?''
Toshiro was getting reading to attack before she could make that command. ''Ah Ah Ah, do you really think your attack would be quick enough to save her. All I need do is snap my fingers and she is dead meat. So here what we are going to do, we are going to play little game.'' Just then a large syringe filled with purple liquid appeared in her hands.
''Let's see how many times you can dodge my attacks'' firing the syringe
Toshiro merely created an ice wall to block it only for the liquid to explode upon contact of it, pushing Toshiro back. ''What the?'' he grunted in pain
''Oh did you think it was acid, silly little boy, now stand still and take your shot if you do I will give you a lollipop'' she taunted firing another shot. Which he flashed step to dodge.
Dammit I got think of way to get Momo away from that machine and fast, Dammit to hell Toshiro mentally thought.
Meanwhile
Ichigo and Isis stood their ground waiting for one or the other to make their first move. You could practically feel intenseness in the air.
''Tell Mr. Kurosaki how does it feel like to know despite all your efforts in this war are futile. That everything you ever thing know or anyone you ever loved will be taken away before your very eyes'' Isis taunted.
''Yeah, yeah can we get to fighting? I kind heard the whole villain monologues thing, so many times that it's kind of got annoying'' Ichigo replied rudely.
''Well then since you insist I'll start things off'' Isis then stretched her hands out in front of her, and made hand gestures like she was moulding something, they then started to glow a blood red colour, suddenly howling noise coming from below.
Ichigo looked to see a dog, glowing the same colour and howling in pain, he then a saw the corpse of soul reaper not too far away from it again glow the same colour. They both started to float towards each other. Their then literary started to meld together in fashion that is even to horrifying for this writer to describe for you.
However once the two beings' transformation was complete, what stood in front looked like a wolf man, unlike wolf man soul reaper Kommura, this one looked a lot more feral looking, his soul reaper garbs were ripped and torn in many places and this creature did look like or sound like it a had shred of you humanity left in him.
Ichigo looked slightly disgusted at what he just saw what the magic can do and how it works rather than what the result was. Granted he has seen disturbing things throughout his time as substitute soul reaper, but this was definitely on his top 10.
''Like that? This magic is a type of creation magic called Genetics's Subjugation; it allows me to literally manipulate very genetic code of almost every living thing, from the tiniest insect to a Giant, meld them together create something else, like you see before with this lovely specimen. Which I used the corpse of Soul Reaper and stray dog.''
The wolfman then charge towards Ichigo with animalistic fury and swipe with massive claws. Causing him to use one of his Zaputako to block it, he didn't feel a lot of pressure from the swipe in fact compared to a hollow's strength this creature it could compared to an average hollow not in the meno's class.
''You think that was tough, come on where's the challenge?'' he taunted
This merely caused Isis to chuckle, ''Oh poor delusional little boy, do honestly think that was my best creation? No I was merely testing the waters to see if my magic worked on soul reapers, but do not worry my magic does not work on does not work on sentient beings that are alive only the dead ones. Now perhaps I should show you what I have been tinkering with.''
She then snapped her fingers, rift of sorts then opened up and something walked through it. Ichigo eyes slightly in shock. This creature had strictly filmier light blue spikey hair, though it was lacking the white broken mask around its mouth and the white uniform. Instead of a white uniform it wore tight black skinny jeans, black vest top with Pergrande's symbol on the front, in red and he strangely had a furry blue cat tail, along with blue fuzzy cat ears.
''Grimjow?'' Ichigo said in confusion.
''You are half correct, this creature is a by-product of my magic.''
''After Grimmjow's 2nd battle with Natsu Dragneel they both of course both inflicted a great amount of damage on each other. Though of course they left a lot genetic material aka blood from battle that was pretty much all over the place thanks to it. Thankfully Lord Sagi gathered some of this for research and was kind of enough to give me some samples and I decided to do a little experiment. After creating this creature along with help of the demon's of Tartoros's hell's core. I created the first ever Aranncar–Etherious hybrid. Both Aranncar and Etherious have their weaknesses. Most natural-born Arrancar or the ones who willing remove their masks aren't that impressive, now Arrancar created by Aizen's Hogukyu now they are slightly more impressive, well most of them anyway. The Espada from 1 to 4 are most definitely powerful along with Grimmjow, Wonderwiess and now bleeding heart, now dead man Skullak, who I will add was only impressive natural born Arrancar. '' Explained Isis
''Why does it lack the broken mask?'' Ichigo said
''Ah that were his Etherious heritage kicked in, He has a cute tail go along with it too and the added bonus of the powers of Arrancar but uses curse power instead, Now then shall we get started, Pantera Kill. '' Isis said snapping her fingers.
The Grimmjow clone, named Pantera attacked.
''Cero!'' firing a cero similar to his original counterpart
Ichigo responded by blocking it. Though it did push him back slightly, Ichigo then responded by flash stepping towards him to try cleave of his head which he responded by blocking it with his bare hand.
''Cero!'' this time he opened his mouth and fired one from there, this nearly hit Ichigo right in the face it he hadn't turned to the side quickly though it did burn his burn cheek. Ichigo back off to gain some distance.
''Marvellous he is already performing to my expectations'' she air step towards Pantera. ''Well done Pantera'' she said affectionate manner and then she did what made Ichigo face fault. She started to scratch behind Pantera's cat like ears and he started purr like a cat, with his face giving off a please happy look. Now has seen some weird stuff and goofy stuff throughout his time with Rukia and that this was just too much, I mean he was seeing what was essentially a clone of Grimmjow acting a like a house cat.
''Uhh can we get back too fighting?'' Ichigo interrupted not knowing how to deal with this.
''Oh sorry Mr. Kurosaki I couldn't help myself those ears were just too adorable. Plus I wanted to prove my point from earlier; Pantera unlike us is a creature that relies solely on animal instinct. He can't think much beyond the will his creator, but you that also makes superior to us to an extent, unlike the real Grimmjow he doesn't give into petty desires of trying to prove himself the strongest or even any emotions. While not a complete weakness emotions the do make beings like us act without thinking things out at first'' explained Isis
'' You like to hear yourself don't you? Dosen't atter it's all crap I hear from you now anyway'' Ichigo insulted
Isis frowned she didn't like being insulted. ''Pantera my pet rip fro to shreds''
Pantera hands then started to a glow a dark blood red colour, ''Slashing Curse: Flying Swipe!'' a blood red flying slash flied towards Ichigo.
''Getsuga Tenshō!'' Ichigo firing his own attack to counter his curse, but both attacks cancelled each other out.
Dammit Ichigo thought I need to end this battle quickly, he could feel that foul was growing stronger and he could feel it getting stronger and he knows the stronger it gets the more people will get controlled by, which means more people will die.
With that Ichigo prepared himself to counter attack.
I refuse to let anyone else die, he mentally thought with a new determination.
Meanwhile back too not too far from the centre of Magnolia Park
Sanji's day started out pretty good he got to help or be let to carry the bags of the beautiful Nami-swan which contained the clothes that she was going to wear for the beauty contest, Went to the 8-Island restaurant and met Yajima on which the two got along quite well do to both having a love for cooking and are talented chefs in their own right. Though Sanji was obviously the more talented one, regardless they agreed to small deal if Sanji agreed to work an hour or two at the restaurant he would supply him with a good amount foods, spices, recipes other seasonings that are native to the Earthland. Sanji always eager to expand his cooking skills agreed and was set to work there after the contest, He didn't just plan to look for seasonings, spices and recipes just in the wizard world of course, He also planned to do the same in the Ninja world and Soul Reaper world, particularly in the first of the two. Because he heard of great things about a restaurant in the Hidden Leaf Village called Ichiaku Ramen.
However fate can also be a shitty bastard as the Coalition just had to attack and interrupt everything. Oh those bastards couldn't they have waited, He wanted to see all the gorgeous beauties, he already met quite a few at the beginning of this war with Sakura-Swan, Kurosutchi-Swan, Karui-Swan, Neleil-Swan, Millianna-Swan and Kagura-Swan and when the 1st Division met up with 5th Division, Lucy-Swan, Erza-Swan, Minerva-Swan , Yukino-Swan, Hana-Swan, Laki-Swan, Meldy-Swan, Ultear-Swan and Naono-Swan. He didn't go for Tsume-Swan because of her famous temper and that she was previously married, Rebecca-Swan because her father Kyros was around and Sherry-Swan because she was engaged then though her fiancé was dead he still wouldn't take a woman who was taken. Regardless he was going to meet lots more of these goddesses thanks to this contest but now it's ruined thanks to the attack from these coalition bastards.
Now he just finished knocking out a couple of his crewmates Brook, Franky and his new friend, Choji who were all under the control of the Erosion Magic. After taking drag of his cigarette sighing ''Well isn't this shitty problem we find ourselves in?'' He then looks back at the unconscious forms of three comrades. ''Sorry guys but you kind left me no choice. Though I honestly expected to have tougher battle than that '' He mutters an apology. He kind of wondered though was it because of this Erosion Magic that people's fighting ability was slightly dulled and therefore was why he came out pretty unharmed from the fight or simply stronger than them.
Though he could feel that the magic right now and he felt it's evil and if commander Urahara was right that if this magic is allowed to get stronger it will eventually start affecting the stronger members of the Alliance and it could boast a serious problem. His haki gave him protection for now but how long will that last? His two crew members Brook and Franky did not possess haki therefore it had an affect an on them and Choji while he possess a good amount chakra did not appear to have large enough reserves unlike those who around Kage or Elite Jonin level fighters. Before he could think on this further.
''Excuse me kind sir, But would you so happen to be Black Leg Sanji?'' interrupted a voice. Sanji turned around to see a fairly beautiful woman in gothic Lolita like clothing, holding an umbrella and you guess it he was love-struck at first sight. ''Well hello their lovely gorgeous beauty how can I help you?''
''Oh I guess I am right and they did say you were a womanizer'' smiled the gothic Lolita woman. Though she was slightly disgusted the man's behaviour.
This put Sanji out of his love mode for second. ''Wait they, who are you talking about?'' Sanji asked
They girl then gave him what most people would've mistaken as a kind smile and then she pointed her umbrella at him. This confused him at first until a black beam shot of the tip at right at him. Sanji thankfully dodge thanks to Haki by mere inches.
He then gave the girl a look of pity, ''I guess I'm really am having a shitty day'' muttered Sanji and then in slight moaning in sorrow love induced voice. ''Ohhh why did my opponent had to be a completely sexy indoctrinated female wizard, why couldn't shitty indoctrinated guy wizard.'' He whined slightly.
''That so sweet of you but I'm not indoctrinated. In fact my country is just recent addition to this little war of yours.'' Said the girl
''Wait a minute I thought all other countries in the wizard world were remaining neutral in the war.'' asked Sanji .
''Oh you are half right but for different reasons. Most countries either don't have enough Magic Guilds, strength or are too afraid of the rumours involving the strength and power of the Kingdom of Rakuen to get involved. But my Country, the Pergrande Kingdom has ulterior motives for taking part, well most of us anyway. Which leads me to introduce myself; I am Tia of the Pergrande Quartet. Now be so kind and die quietly'' she said then clicking a button on the handle of umbrella. The hilt of it then transforms making it look similar to a Gatling gun. She shot at Sanji who without much effort dodge the barrage of bullets.
The buildings that were hit started to rot and decay away. Sanji looked at results, thanking whatever god higher than Chitsujo that didn't hit him.
''Like that? This umbrella has in built fireman allowing me to fire a bullets that are filled with Decaying magic or powerful beam that can to destroy a building.'' She said switched the umbrella function to blast mode firing again. This time again Sanji dodged only for it to hit two other soldiers a Soul Reaper and Rock Ninja that were currently engaged in combat and both who also under effects of the Erosion Magic, both who were killed upon impact and with severe burns that covered their corpses. ''Query? Why do you keeping dodging my attacks, instead just counter attacking? ''
''It goes everything I am to attack a lady. Even if it kills me I refuse to attack a Lady. Even if that lady is the enemy'' Sanji answered.
Tia smiled widened into a sly grin. ''Is that so? Well perhaps then I should try a different approach.'' Her eyes then began to glow purple as she started looking directly at Sanji's eyes. Sanji then began to feel slightly tired and drowsy. But not the sleepy kind of tired more like the one where you just woke from a very long nap.
He noticed that Tia was no longer in front of him and then he heard a familiar voice. ''Sanji!'' he turned around to see the Nami-swan running towards him in what looked a wedding dress?!
He blushed and had slight nose bleed, I mean this Sanji for were talking about. ''Na-Nami-swan you're alright but why are you in a wedding dress?''
Nami gave him a confused look ''Why wouldn't I be in a wedding dress Sanji after all you promised to marry me after the this battle remember?''
''I did?'' Sanji said feeling very confused at the moment. ''No he said he would marry me.'' He turned to see Millianna now in a wedding dress. ''Hey bitch he promised to marry me'' yelled Kurotsuchi who was also in a wedding dress. Suddenly Neliel appeared and tackled Sanji to the ground who you guessed it in a wedding dress? ''No way Sanji said he would marry me'' pouted Neliel who leaned for pressing her cleavage towards his face.
Sanji could only think two things right now, what the hell? And I'm in heaven! Though he didn't remember ever asking any of the girls to marry him, he still always dreamed of marrying one of them at least. It was his second dream to that only to finding the All Blue which of course was still his number one dream. However having an array of women falling in love with him was pure bliss and it was only started to get better when he looked behind Neilel.
Suddenly every notable woman in the Alliance along with some from the Coalition all appeared running towards him in wedding dresses. After that Sanji could only do one logical thing and that was have one of the biggest nose bleeds of his life. This was Sanji's dream come true and sadly he was not wrong literary.
Because it was, right now the real Sanji was on the ground in front of Tia with a purple haze that to covered his entire body. His eyes had a drowsy sort of look to them and his smile was in stupid perverted grin with a little bit of blood coming down from his nose.
Tia smiled at her handy work. In about 1 hour, Black Sanji will be dead and the Straw Hats will be down one member. Thanks to help of her Bliss Magic, for all those who don't what Bliss Magic is . It works similar to Tskyomi that Itachi used on Izumi Uchiha during the Clan's massacre. In that it places the target in a dream of one their desires and slowly kills them in about hour. This works by making the brain think they are living a life time and thus that the end of hour target's heart slowly goes down until it stops beating. This in turn makes the person also look they had died in their sleep, making impossible for it to traced back or discovered on how they truly died. But the magic while effective did have a few weaknesses. One if the target realizes they are in a dream it would become null and void and the target would wake up. This was hard because of temptation of the dream. Two if the caster is knocked out, killed or out of range aka certain distance from the target and Three it only works on one target at time.
But Tia was not too worried, after all Sanji was just the bait to lure her real target, who should be a arriving very shortly. Who she had lost when the plan started.
''Ransheruken!''
Tia opened her umbrella and used it block the powerful attack thrown at her. Though it managed to do its job thanks to stelliaum in its design, she was still pushed back. ''Didn't your mother ever tell little boy that is rude to strike a lady?''
Naruto stood on the rooftop of one the street's buildings with two shadow clones beside him. ''You are attacking someone who is really close to my brother in arms. In my opinion that makes you an enemy. Plus what you are doing to him is not cool, you know?!''
Tia raised and eye brow at the verbal tic. ''It's a habit of mine'' Naruto said sheepishly
''Well shall we formally introduce ourselves and get to fighting? I know who you are but still I feel the need to at least that. I am Tia of the Pergrande Quartet and I am also called the Peaceful Death Goddess.''
''Ok Tia, you are speaking to the Hidden Leaf's orange flash, Naruto Uzumaki and I'm here to kick your ass.'' Smirked Naruto.
''Well do or die as they'' smirked Tia.
Meanwhile
''Is that all you got?'' Sunna taunted at her beaten down opponents.
''I expect more of a challenge from supposedly elite jonin and a pirate with a bounty of 100,000,00 of berries.'' She sighs.
''Oh I hope really stories about the other world warriors weren't fabricated. It would be such disappointment if it were. I mean I was getting excited at the thought of facing people with other abilities than magic.'' She whines
''Don't think you beaten us yet.'' Stirred Puzzle who despite in a lot of pain and multiple injures covering his body, he got his chain ready to prepare for another attack.
Sunna grinned with glee. ''Oh perfect I knew at least one of you would not disappoint. So mister pirate, I don't really believe in that ladies first bull crap so I will let you go first this time. But hear this if you can't hit me in 3 minutes you I will use of my most special magic on you. Aren't I generous?''
''I think we already had enough generosity girly' Puzzle spat back'
''That goes double for me'' said Ganryu who was nursing his broken left arm. He puts a one hand sign up. ''Hidden Mist Jutsu!'' Mist starts to gather around the surrounding fuzzing Sunna's view.
''So this is the Hidden Mist jutsu used for the Hidden Mist's silent killing? Do boys honestly think that is going to work'' Sunna mused, she brought what looked like claw weapons that seem to give off a sparkle. ''Well as the saying goes it's your funeral''
Puzzle then launch two chains imbued with haki and wrapped them around her. ''Ganryu now!'' he called.
Ganryu with surprising speed right in front of her and aimed his katana for her neck intending to end this quickly.
''Solar Magic: Gates of Hellfire!''
Suddenly a bright light filled the area and mist began to disperse the mist around them. Much to Ganryu's shock but he had not ponder as he felt the handle of his katana become burning that hot that it scorched his hand, he dropped it in pain. ''Ack!'' He then looked his hand to see third degree burns on. The same thing was happening to Puzzle who would have let go as well as he too having suffering the same wounds, though he was fighting through despite the pain thanks to his haki. He then noticed something that shocked him.
''What?!'' he gasped, he saw that that chains that he tied Sunna up in began to melt. What was more stunning is that Sunna looked unaffected.
''How the Hell are not hurt?''
''Oh are you boys confused? Well don't be, I had train a lot with solar magic to point that it would not burn me, but at least a got incredibly great tan from it'' she said as struck as sexy pose.
''That still doesn't explain how you melted my sword and Puzzle's chains?'' Ganryu spat back.
''Oh really? Tell me boys what is one of the most powerful forces of nature? The answer, it is the sun or to be more specific light itself'' she explained
''My magic allows me to absorb and manipulate the light itself. I can blind my opponents or raise the very temperature of area around to point it can melt metal. I can even do this'' She then raised her hand in the air.
''Solar Magic: Million arrows of light!'' I beams shot out of Sunna's hand and before Puzzle and Ganryu could even blink they were hit by the many beams of light knocking them both to the ground.
''Pain so much pain'' Moaned Puzzle ''Ganryu are you ok?''
Ganryu didn't answer but he had many severe burns marks all over his body. Easy to say that if he didn't see a medic soon he would die. Puzzle tried to move himself but found his legs were in severe pain. When looked down at them he saw something that normally makes most people scream in horror. His feat was so severe burnt to a point that his bones were showing.
''Opps I must have raised the temperature of that attack a bit too high, so sorry'' she giggled
She walked over Ganryu and poked his face to see if he was still breathing.
Muramasa who was still on the side lines was watching this fight and was impressed with the girl's fighting skill. Though he didn't show it, when he first met Sunna he got the impression that she was someone who always wanted to be the centre of attention and he was right. But he honestly thought because she was weak and wanted that much attention to her to hide it.
''Stay the hell away from him!'' Puzzle still struggling to get up. But Sunna ignored him.
''Oh you poor thing if you don't get help soon you're not going to make it'' she faked sympathy. ''But don't worry I'll go something to make all that pain go away''
Sunna then pointed a finger and red light shot of it and hit Ganryu. After hitting him Ganryu's body started to get smaller and smaller. It then started to morph with into weird bone like shape to point that it stated like a chicken bone. That's right you heard me Ganryu had just been transform into a chicken bone.
Puzzle couldn't believe just a moment Ganryu had been lying there and now there was chicken bone.
''What hell did you do to him?'' Puzzle managed to blurt out,
Sunna picked up then now chicken bone, Ganryu and started juggling it in one hand. ''Oh I just used a magic of one the Black Arts created by Zeref known as Feast. All the Black Arts have ability to manipulate life in some way. This one converts organic beings into edibles and thus once eaten their power is added to my magic power along with their memories. Now if you excuse me I have eaten all day.'' She then started to tear into chicken until all the meat of was gone.
Puzzle was still in shock. This can't real surely this was some trick of wicked god's Erosion Magic. Ganryu have possibly been turn into a chicken bone?
''I can see the look your face that you don't believe that friend has just been eaten, Burp! excuse me'' Sunna belched.
''So let me prove it. Is it true that you Ganryu told about how Naruto Uzumaki stop him from killing a ninja from the Hidden Rock?''
Puzzle's widened in shock at this.
''Still not convinced? How about when you told him about the time that Monkey D. Luffy inspired you to get back in the piracy lifestyle after you losing one of crewmates in the new world''
Puzzle got over his shock and said. ''You could have learned about that from the dossier whay you know about us.''
''I guess that is a fair point, then why don't I bring up a recent memory. Is it true that after Ganryu became friends that he offered to buy and you and crew a round drinks back at his village''
This was not possible Puzzle thought; True Ganryu had promised a round of drinks for him and his crew, funny enough it was actually. He flashed backed to the day when they met.
Flashback, Crocus: few days before the beginning of the war.
When Puzzle first joined the alliance, he was hoping to get into one of the fighting divisions and fight on the front. Personally he wanted to be in the 2nd Division and fight alongside Luffy but as fate would have it he was placed in the Defence Division for whatever reason and he didn't like that. In fact his first response was to challenge Commander Neekis to fight. He was hoping that by defeating him that he can prove he was strong enough to be in the fighting Divisions. His crewmates tried to talk him out of this.
''Captain be reasonable, I mean if Jura is commander surely he must strong.'' Stansen explained.
''Yeah that is the point, if I can beat this guy, then I will prove once and for all that we belong the fighting Divisions. After all how going to fulfill our promise to Straw Hats don't if we don't fight the toughest opponents. Were never going to get strong enough to survive the new world if we continue opponents that offer challenge''
''Besides our will be the Pirate King Someday'' Jiro encouraged.
''I'm Afraid Commander Neekis is currently busy in meeting with Alliance Leadership'' Stood Ganryu who was blocking their path.
''And you know this how?'' Puzzle asked
''Captain he is one of the Captains in the Division'' Race answered
''He's right Captain Ganryu, Jonin of the Hidden Mist Village and you must be? Puzzle the phoenix'' Ganryu introduced himself.
''So you heard about me? I got to say I'm flattered, guess my reputation precedes me'' smirked Puzzle.
''Ah no I read your file on the dossier'' Deadpanned Ganryu ''Anyway I came to stop you r because I don't agree with reason to you wish challenge Commander Neekis.''
''Oh and why is that?'' Puzzle questioned getting a little annoyed.
''One that fact you wish to challenge simply because you don't like the position on which were given in the alliance is unreasonable, two the fact that you presume that your victory against Jura is guarantee despite reputation and that rank his gives some idea of how strong he is arrogant and 3 that kind challenge just for your own selfish reasons is what could divided this Division and we need to be unified.''
''Selfish I'm doing this so I can pay back my debt to Strawhat'' Puzzle spat back started to pissed off at Ganryu.
''I can relate wanting to pay back your debt, but you can do that by making sure the headquarters doesn't fall to the enemy. If lose fail protecting it the war be over. As such our job is just if not more important than fighting divisions''
''Ok then Ganryu how about this. Why we have little dual ourselves, if I win you back off and let me dual Jura and if you win I will back off and accept my stance in alliance.'' Puzzle smirked
''Again you assume that your victory is guarantee. But very well I agree to your terms'' Ganryu then proceed to bring his sword, while Puzzle brought his chains.
Safe to say that dual did not go in Puzzle's favor, heck it didn't go even Ganryu's favor. They ended in tie lying of their backs exhausted, beaten and sore all over. Though the two gained an odd respect for each other, both may have had different resolves and reasons for wanting to win. But ultimately as fate would have it, the dual ended with neither side winning.
''Captain?'' Jiro asked in concern
''Inhaling I got to say Ganryu you're one tuff man to bring down'' Puzzle said with respect
''Chuckles Honestly I got to say the same about Puzzle. Your resolve while I might not agree to is to be admired. It's kind of funny isn't it? Both of us have different reasons for wanting to win. But ultimately we own that resolve to someone''
''You mean Luffy and Naruto Uzumaki right?'' questioned Puzzle
''Yes, they got us out of bad place and showed what we truly fighting for, not for our ambitions or goals but for the people we care for''
''Corny but your right, Hey Jiro could you go get a medic? I don't think of us can move ''
''Sure Captain'' Jiro answered running off to look for one
''Your goal what was it again?'' Asked Ganryu
''To pay my debt to Strawhat and become king of pirates''
''Well then Puzzle how about this for good luck, that I will treat you and your crew to a round drinks after this war at home village, sound good?''
''Laughs You should know to never invite a pirate, let alone his entire crew for drinks, but sure I'll hold you too that''
''Trust me I plan in keeping that promise''
Flashback End
Puzzle kept repeating that same sentence in his head over and over again; until he felt something he has felt in a long time….rage.
''I'm going kill you!'' Puzzle screamed in rage trying to get so he could beat ever day lights out of girl who his friend's life. But alas due his injures he could hardly move.
''Giggles how amusing are all you alliance types like this. So hell bent on protecting what you hold dear and willing to everything to keep it safe. But don't worry I'll release of your burdens and send you to your dear friend shortly'' Sunna pointed her finger at Puzzle and again the same red glow started to appear.
Puzzle then gave up unable to move and resigned himself to his fate, this is it the end he mentally thought. Jiro, Stansen, Race , Guyle, Lago, Troff, Sutton, Basil I'm sorry guys it looks you will have to complete you journey without me. Virgaro it looks like I'm coming to meet you again shortly.
However while Puzzle expected have been turned into some edible he looked to see that Sunna had let out a scream of shock and pain, had been launched into a nearby building.
''What the hell hit me?'' Sunna yelled dusting herself off while getting of the rubble of the partly destroyed.
And too Puzzle's surprise and relief it was Luffy cranking his knuckles.
''Strawhat am to see you'' Puzzle sighed
''Yosh Puzzle long time no see, I didn't know you be in the alliance'' smirked Luffy ''Hey why you all beat up?'' Luffy being clueless and idiotic as usual.
''Seriously you ask me that? You just punched the pissed off girl that is yelling at you right into it. She's the reason'' Puzzle pointed out
Luffy turned around and sure the Sunna was yelling at him looking like she wanted to rip him to shreds.
''Hey you! Did you beat up my friend?'' He yelled back, this caused Sunna to pause for second and then smirk.
''While yes that it is my handy work, so you have to notice'' she said without a hint of guilt and with pride.
''Hey were is other guy who was here ? What have done to him?'' Luffy, having sensed his presence disappear thanks to his haki and demanded starting to get angry with girl. Puzzle then let out a slight sob
''Ganryu, she killed him that bitch literally just turned him into food and ate him''
If there is one thing you do not do to Luffy's friends it's make them cry and right that Sunna was to see why''
''Right then, Hey girl I'm to kick your ass''
Meanwhile at the Magnolia park
''Why won't you just die? Can't you see that it's pointless? Look around you this whole city is a goner.'' Weyse shouted in frustration she was currently still in battle Yoruchi and while inside the Higurenokami statue.
Weyse had tried vigorously to hit her with beams of darkness magic, but Yoruchi had either just been dodging her attacks or counteracting them instead with her.
Yoruchi while she more superior fighter was trying figure out this creature's weakness. She had hit it many times but it had yet to show any sign of damage. So right now she was just dodging and counteracting while trying come up with strategy, after all one does not become a former captain of the Gotei 13's second Division without a keen mind or least have some leadership skills.
''You know for someone who supposed to be priestess, you sure like to use violence to solve your problems. I thought you guys were supposed to be pacifists or at least preach holy crap.'' Yoruchi mocked her.
''But then again from what I've seen from you Coalition types, bragging seems to be a common trait, and yet you most guys don't seem to get along, that's what make you the big losers in this war''
Safe to this Weyse caused to go little tantrum oh why she won't stand still.
Yoruchi then took a chance to look around to see if any her comrades were alright.
Kisuke was currently knocking out any civilians that were trying to attack each other or himself and tending to their injuries they sustained by under the god's magic.
Erza and Tsunade were still in a stalemate against Zepher and Hancock had run off chasing after Fuka. Who made run for it just after her fight with Higurenokami began, Rangiku and Binz were still knocked out thanks to Yoruchi personally. Lisa and Hiyori had seem to have run off somewhere still under the control of the God. So put it simply things were still in utter chaos. But that's fine things were in chaos when in the war with the Quincy.
''Erode Nega!'' Just then a black circle appears around Yoruchi's feat and she is enveloped in a black pillar of magic. After the pillar had disappeared Yoruchi was not there.
Weyse thinking that she vaporised the pesky soul reaper let a giddy cheer. ''Hah take you old hag, that's what you getting with messing with the power of a god.'' She turns her attention to Kisuke who had knocked out or restrained around 30 people. ''Well old fart are you ready to be next? But tell you what if you beg mercy l'll make you death it quick and painless''
Kisuke merely responded by fanning himself with his signature fan and said. ''Curious what makes think you that she is dead, Tell me have you even sense that her presence has disappeared?''
This confused Weyse for second but then she realized, Yourichi's spiritual presence had not disappeared. Usually when a soul reaper died or was killed their spiritual presence vanished and eventually their body too. Though the body part might not be true anymore due the worlds interacting and various energies from the other worlds from them too, though it does make her wonder where is she?
''Hey Psycho Priestess up here!''
Weyse looked upwards at the direction of the voice and there was Yoruchi on top of one Lamp posts. She screamed in rage ''How you still Alive!''
''Simple I dodged it at the last second'' Yourchi proclaimed with a hint of smugness. ''Now I will give you give one last chance to surrender and cancel the magic or I will have to get serious''
But this threat just made Weyse laugh ''Oh Please old hag, your attacks haven't had a scratch on me''
''True my attacks had any effect on you as I am right now'' smirked Yourchi, then her body started to produce an electricity like Aura, she started grow to a cat tail and cat ears, the electricity then started to form claws at the base of her and feat. To put it bluntly she looked like a mix between a human-cat hybrid.
Weyse was speechless she feel the intense amount coming from her and it scared the hell out of her.
Youruchi crouched in feral like manner like she was getting ready to pounce and growl like voice she said. ''So Psycho Priestess are you sure you don't want to surrender?''
Magnolia, Lucy's apartment
As soon Natsu couldn't smell Lucy, he deduced right away that something was off and dashed off straight to her apartment.
Along the way his suspicion was right on. As later he sensed an evil spike in magic power appear out of nowhere at the park. Right now he just finished knocking out a group of civilians who tried to attack.
''Man you guys weren't tough'' he said but due the civilians being unconious. ''Lucy's was here, along with Chopper and Yukino. He said to himself sniffing the air, he also smelled the scent of four individuals he did not recognize. But then he did smell that smelled shockingly familiarly.
''Michelle was here?'' he gasped in shock, though he stilled wonder how. Technically she Michelle or Imitita as she called herself didn't but was turned back into her original form by Midnight aka Macbeth.
When Lucy told him and the guild the whole story of why Michelle lied and betrayed them. He forgave her, but a thing others in the guild were still upset about her betrayal and wanted the doll destroyed but relented due to Lucy's feelings. However Natsu still wondered if she is indoctrinated in the coalition or not. Sniffed the air a little more, he picked up three of the people he didn't recognize scent. It was coming towards the park, he bolted to direction planning to beat up one of and find were Lucy's and the others were.
''Homing Shot!''
Just at last second Natsu avoid a shot at his head, that would have been a fatal had he not dodge it. ''Hey what's the big idea who shot at me?'' shouted Natsu who looked up at the direction of the shot.
Standing there was a dark skinned woman with purple hair styled into a pony tail in red army uniform stood on top of one of the nearby buildings, holding sniper riper with red pink lacrima near the scope.
''Salamander, Act of Order, Fire Dragon Slayer and wizard of the Fairy Tail guild, I Bellona, Leader of the Pergrande Quartet and Strongest wizard of the Pergrande Kingdom challenge you'' Bellona yelled in a booming voice. She used alteration magic to change the gun in her hand to a sword.
Natsu gave the woman a stern look but then smirked, cracking his knuckles, he replied ''All right then challenge accepted, I'm getting fired up''
Just like that Magnolia was descending further and further into chaos with battles on both sides going into their favours.
Odin, Valhalla, Throne Room, Pergrande Kingdom, 5:00pm
''Should I wear this one? Or this one'' is what was currently on the mind of the acting Queen of Pergrande, Eris. She was in the midst of trying outfits for when Konton proposes to her (Never going to happen) currently she was on outfit number 140. This oddly enough looked like a completely identical replica to Princess Leia's slave outfit from Star wars: A New Hope.
''Hebe? Tell me does this look sexy enough or is too sexy?'' Eris asked her head servant woman. Hebe a middle aged woman at looked around in her 40s or 50 with short dark blonde hair styled in a bun, tried putting a pleasant smile.
''Oh it looks great on you your majesty'' she said with a mildly sarcastic tone. Eris who was too busy in her own little world to care about the tone of her servant's voice, right now she was thinking about her future wedding (Again never going to happen) with the being of Chaos and when she would be crowned Empress of the Universe and gain eternal youth. Though she would have to figure out how to get rid of that skank Midranna, but before that could happen she had to win this war for her beloved, oh how she hated her from the moment she met the latter. Which so happen to be on her first visit to Konton's Palace on which declared the woman as her love rival, though Midranna did not think so and thought Eris was just a lonely desperate old hag who thinks that she is beautiful. Though Eris did promise she would find a way to kill her somehow, she just had to figure out how? If stories were true that woman was as strong as Zeref. Which would make killing her very difficult. No matter if all goes as planned she will have the power to kill her shortly. After all an Act of Chaos may be hard to kill, but they still could be beat with the right power and Nine Dark Circles were around that level after all. Maybe she could even convince one of theme to team up with in killing her. From she has heard Sagi the Fraud hated her with passion.
''Pardon me my Queen'' spoke smooth silky voice at the entrance of the room. Were stood at man full black and red butler outfit oddly wearing tragic mask that look it was made of porcelain interrupted her day dream. Eris did not look pleased with interruption. ''Thanatos what is it? Can't you see I am busy?'' she in annoyance.
''Sorry your majesty but we are receiving a message on the communication lacrima from Rakuen.
This caught Eris attention that her face went into a gleeful expression, her eyes turning into hearts, Perhaps it was her love Lord Konton she thought. She then ran out of the room as if the devil himself was after her.
Not long after she entered a lavish Victorian style looking dining area again with same black marble like walls. At the centre of the room stood a long table that looked like it could hold around 40 to 50 people. At one end of the table sat a large communication lacrima.
As soon as Eris went up to it she activated it with her magic. Expecting to see Lord Konton appear image of the lacrima she started rant on about her outfit that she picked out for him. ''Oh my sweet darling Lord Konton I was not expecting to hear from you so soon. What do think my new clothes? I picked out just for you? I saw while reading the dossier on that world called Earth and saw this. I thought that proving that I can have submissive side too would appealing to you , or perhaps we can even be naughty about it. Eris said trying to put flirtatious face.
''Ahem Eris?''
On the other end was not Konton but the Chief Scientist of the Rakuen himself, Sagi. Eris deflated a bit ''Oh Master Sagi it's just you, sorry I was expecting my one true love Lord Konton'' she signed. The fraud
Sagi rolled his eyes that this. ''I'm afraid his majesty is dealing with other businesses and I'm just calling to check on how the plans were going so far''
''Oh I suppose my love would be busy with other things running a county and organization like Coalition and preparing to become Emperor, Planning his proposal to me when I win this war for him. Oh I can imagine it now, just after the victory and parades in Rakuen. He announces for the whole universe to see that he has one final proposition to make. He gets down one knee brings out a small box and says. My darling Eris would you make this 2000 year old man the most happiest Emperor ever by become his Empress!'' squealed Eris as she was lost in her demented fantasies.
Sagi deadpanned ''Ah right, how goes the plans?''
''Oh right, Deifilia is currently working on the project and the Pergande Quartet and thier unit should be attacking Magnolia right now.'' Replied Eris
''Perfect then continue on with the plan and make sure to update me frequently on any new developments. I'm sure his majesty would be most pleased if this plan results in us winning this war.'' said Sagi. ''I'm sure his majesty will see you as worthy to be his bride if succeed'' He lied.
''Oh trust me Master Sagi, my soldiers will not fail. I will prove my worth not just to the coalition to my one true love Konton'' Eris gleefully said with her eyes now in a similar way love struck state a certain water wizard.
Sagi then mused at the whole display before him. Truly Lord Konton was a master at toying with people's emotions. He managed to use this woman's complete devotion to him and make her his willing servant. Though he knew his lord would never find such desperate lonely old hag attractive or even love her. But as long as she believed there was a chance that Konton might love her she would be useful to him and she has outlived that usefulness he will throw her away.
''Well then I must be going I have meeting to attend with my court. I will you contact in the next couple days goodbye'' and with he cut the signal to lacrima
''Thanatos get in here now!'' demanded Eris
''Yes your Majesty?'' he appeared at the door bowing his head slightly.
''Get those worthless candidates of Pergrande Quartet to start evacuating the lowly commoners in the city''
''I'm surprised your majesty has enough heart in her to order their evacuation'' Thanatos inquired
''Don't insult me Thanatos I merely want them out of the way so Deflilia can get on with her little project without any problems, for some reason she refused to get innocents involved and I wish them out of here, before they find out their bratty prince is gone'' Eris was referring to her niece Zachary who had escaped not too long ago. ''Now hop to it I'm going to see how that girl is doing''
''Yes should I inform Lady Defillia instead, of our progess, your majesty?'' Questioned Thantos
''Lady? That girl may be founder of this country but I am still Queen and soon to be Empress you best remember that Thantoas''
''Of course your majesty'' Thantos bowed
Odin, the Cain institute, Pergrande Kingdom
One of the biggest achievements and differences between Fiore and Pergrande was not just that's its guilds were known to be invertor guilds, but also the education system. In Fiore all families had to pay for the children to go school. This meant that some children that came from poor families had been home schooled couldn't the proper education. The Pergrande Kingdom was quite different in that regard. During of the reign King Cain, the grandfather of Prince Zacchary, he established education tax on the people regardless social status, allowing enough money to be raised for schools, the hiring of teachers and equipment. One such was the Cain institute named after the king who founded the system. That was located in the capital itself, It also taught the basics of magic should any student wish to pursue their career as a wizard.
After that he placed another law that regardless of social status all children were to receive an education from at least ages from 5 to 12 years old. Afterwards if they wished they would be given a choice to continue with their education or join one of local magic guilds, happy to say that it worked out really well. In fact one of the teachers of this school came to Pergrande Kingdom because of that system is the reason why we are here right now.
In classroom full of at least 40 people around ages 15-16 stood an old man near far end of room, near black board with a map of continent. He looked around in his early 50s but still had quite fit and healthy body. He was dressed in a white formal shirt and red tie and black trousers. He had brooch shape like the kingdom's symbol on his neck collar. His hair was tied back on pony tail and was grey.
In the man's hands was a opened black book that gave a shiny gleaming reflection. When he turned the next page a peculiar thing happened. The room started to transform in a ripple like effect. Suddenly everyone was sitting in the throne room of the Mercurus palace in Fiore. Two men standing in the centre of room, one was young man that around his early 20s with green short hair wearing royal garb. Another with shaggy blonde hair and gold eyes also wearing royal garb stood.
''Now then'' said the old man ''Can anyone here please identify these two people standing front of me?''
A short bushy haired female student put her hand up. ''As yes Cassandra your answer?''
''King David Pergrande and Raludo E. Fiore'' she replied
''Excellent and what you see them doing in front of you is signing the peace treaty that helped end the Ishgaran war. As for those who listened to last week's lecture, the Ishgaran war was massive conflict that plunged entire continent into chaos in year X622. The two sides of war were the Pergrande Kingdom and their allies against Fiore and their allies.'' Before continued he noticed a one his students a jockey looking guy was had a set of Lacrima headphones on, was listening to music. He went up a snatched the headphones from head.
''Hey I was listening to that'' whined the jock.
''Well perhaps mister Hercules you can focus your ears on my lesson. You are already behind in class and I don't want to take your football practice privileges.'' Said the old man in warning, he then takes a sigh and closes the book in hands cancelling the magic returning everyone to the classroom. ''Some of you think that history is useless. Well you are wrong in that regard. These events in our history shaped are very world. Four of these events that I have been speaking about for the past two weeks have had great impact on country. I am of course speaking about, Dragon Civil war or as it's called today the Dragon King Festival, God's feast war and Ishgaran and founding of Magic Guilds that started with Magia Dragon the first known guild in the world. Despite some of them being terrible events they still helped shape are very society that we live in today. In what way does help us you might ask? Well learning from history can help us make sure we don't repeat it. Plus we own it too those would who lived during those times to carry on their memories and make sure they are never forgotten''
Ringggggggggggggggggg
''That's the bell. I'll see you all next week. Remember to look the first and second trade wars in the library, after the next lecture will be your exams the following week and I expect you to have notes from all lectures on my topics''
Once every had left classroom the old man was just about sit at his desk, he grabbed a kettle with black coffee and poured himself some for a drink. However he stopped himself and looked at his chair. Sure enough there was a sharp pin on it. He picked it up and suddenly he pulled out what looked like an old western looking pistol with a blue lacrima on each side of the stocks and fired it.
What he was shooting looked like a bit like black feathers that fell gracefully to the ground. He the suddenly flipped the table over and used to block more projectiles, again black feathers from hitting him if one looks closely they could see that were wedged into the woodwork of the table by its bone.
''If you are going to try and kill me Tengu and least try do a better job at it'' he said calmly
Suddenly a boy with silver hair styled in a ponytail with a black hairy tie, dropped from a hole in the celling stood in front of him. He wore a short white kimono with autumn leaves on it and wore wooden sandals on his feet.
''Oh your no fun Homer, you could be nice and scream in terror, after all you are in the presence of the person who will the universe's strongest Assassin someday'' Tengu sneered.
The old man now known as Homer rolled his eyes at this. ''Yes, I'm sure that will work out well for someone that was a member of Esianwald'' Homer said with hint of sarcasm.
Tengu heard the sarcasm in his voice. ''At least I have goal, you just want to teach boring shit to bunch non-magical brats, who will not amount to nothing.''
''Oh how naïve you are. Learning about our history can give knowledge of what to plan for the future, it also allows one to not repeat the same mistakes of the past. Unlike like what you are doing right now, trying to start a fight for good reason.'' Homer gave him another jab. ''As for my students, we have had great leaders, doctors and inventors in history that had no magic what so ever, In fact there have been a few doctors that great in treaty magical aliments and they had no magic to help them either. So argument on my students is highly arrogant and completely false. But then again you raised by people by who got their asses kicked by Fairy Tail so I should be not surprised you lack those skills.''
Tengu gave him a pissed of look at this insult then respond by pulling at the black feather hair tie on his head. ''Black Feather Magic: Crow Storm!'' Like before a bunch of Black feathers shot themselves towards.
Homer brought his gun out again and shot at every feather in the blink of an eye.
Tengu snarled in rage ''this time I will kill you, you old basted!'' and charged towards with Homer doing the same.
''That's enough!'' Suddenly the floor spilt open between Homer and Tengu and large beefy man with blonde hair wearing Viking like armour with the symbol of the kingdom on his back appeared wearing silver gold gauntlets appeared the building shook at the damage he did.
''Ummm Sorry Mr Vergil, Tengu but you two really shouldn't fight in a public place.'' The beefy man said meekly
Homer sighing ''You are right Guan Yu, how childish of me'' he pulled his gun away. ''Oh and Guan Yu what have I told you about destroying public property?!'' He gestured towards the now massive hole on the floor, giving Guan Yu a look of disproval.
Guan Yu now looking ashamed bows his in apology. ''Sorry Mr Vergil''
Homer then sighs and gives him a kind smile ''It's fine I know you can't control you strength sometimes.''
''Oh please stop all this bonding, honestly it sickens me.'' Said Tengu.
Homer choosing to ignore him continued ''Anyway Guan Yu did you get the books I aside you to ''I sort of dropped them while was bashing my way to the top floor, sorry'' Guan meekly replied
''You don't say'' Homer deadpanned and then sighs ''Never mind I'll find them later''
''Hey old bastard did you forget we were in the middle of a fight?'' interrupted Tengu
''Oh I forgot your still here Tengu'' choosing to brush aside his comments. But before Tengu could reply, a knock came from the door of the classroom. ''Come in'' Homer replied
''Forgive me gentlemen for interrupting, but her majesty has a task for you'' stood Thanatos at the door.
''What is this about Thanatos?'' asked Homer
''Let's just say we are going to war.''
Meanwhile in the skies of Ishgar on the S.S Lady Elisha
The sitting area of the ship looked similar to old 50's style jazz club without the stage of course. Complete with lush Victorian style couches and dark gold coloured coffee tables. One of couches was currently being seated by Zachary who had completely exhausted Nike who was resting her head on his lap.
Zachary had millions of things going through his head right now. One what on earth was his Aunt thinking, Two how much panic this would cause throughout his country, Three that his Ancestor Defillia has been released, when her tomb supposed to have been under the care of the Magic Council, Four that the war was supposed to be only effecting Fiore has travelled to his country and Five what on Earthland was Aether wearing.
The person he was talking to was a chubby old man that looked in his 70s with short white beard was wearing a stereotypical pirate captain outfit with an eye patch, was standing at the wheel of the ship.
''Ah vast ye land lumber, how goes the kitty on your lap?'' Aether asked in an accent that is similar to Scottish in the living world.
Zachary gave a deadpanned look and replied ''She's fine and why on Earthland are you wearing that and please stop talking like that?''
''Well when I first read about the Alliance in the newspapers. I was thrilled and impressed at the pirates of the Pirate World. Their nothing like the ones we have our world. Plus I also read about the World Government that rules majority their world and I got to say I was disgusted and ironically majority of the pirates they have labelled as criminals are lot better than them. So anyway I thought that dressing up like them would show my admiration to them.
''Well please for professional reasons, I ask you to put something else before when we get there. After all I want Uncle Toma and the rest of the Alliance to know the serious of the situation'' Zachary asked.
Aether seeing his point relented and used requiped to change into a plain white shirt with red tie and with black symbol of the Pergrande Kingdom symbol in red and plain formal black trousers.
''Honestly your majesty you need to lighten up, especially in this time of war'' Aether said
''Perhaps but honestly we shouldn't be involved in this war in the first place. Also I can't brush off this other feeling that I have''
Aether gave him an unreadable expression and asked him in a serious tone ''And that this?''
''Happiness'' smiled Zachary. ''I was partly happy to see Lady Defflia, but I don't it is because of the stories I've heard about her or something else.''
Aether was about to answer but the stirring voice said. ''We got other things to worry about''
They both looked down at the Nike whose eyes now were wide awake now, though she her head to still on his lap was now looking at him with a serious expression. ''Your majesty I don't mean to sound rude but you must put your personal feelings aside. We need to think about the Kingdom's benefit right now''
Zachary looked at her with soft expression and said ''Your right Nike and thanks for saving me earlier''
''Your welcome your majesty'' Nike then sat up and dusted herself off. ''Now than before we meet this Lord Chitsujo. Thiers one thing we must address.''
Zachary and Aether looked at her with confectioned expression but before any of them could say anything. Nike had rushed over to Aether's side andput her down one of his trouser pockets. Before he could ask what she was doing, she pulled out what looked like magazine. It was not just any magazine, On the cover read Sorcerer's Weakly Issue 895, Special photo opp of the lovely of the Alliance, the person on the was red headed woman her hair styled into a herringbone pattern at the back, a top-knot tied with a dark blue band, and with four bangs at the front. The woman in question was wearing dark blue bikini and face expression was in a pouty look. This in case you hadn't guessed was the 5th Mizukage: Mei Terumi
Nice to say that Nike was livid at elder wizard for what he had in his pocket and what his other motives were for traveling to Fiore we're.
''You perverted old man, I knew you had reasons for helping us. You want to peep at those women in the alliance.''
Aether looked away from her and tried to put on an innocent face ''I have no idea what you ae talking about, I was merely for filling my duties as a former member of Pergrande Quartet and S-Class Wizard.'' He said sheepishly
While Nike and Aether argued, Zachary just stared off into the distance his mind completely elsewhere. It is funny how fate works, my ancestor and country the ones responsible for nearly wiping out all the gods in the world and here I am going to seek and ask for help form a man that people consider and a god Zachary mentally thought. Finding it interesting how fate plays out sometimes.
And that is my chapter finished, before you ask yes one Sunna's magics is based of Majin Buu's chocolate Beam with couple, slight differences of course I decided to only do most of fights in this chapter as didn't it to look to complicated, so if you to some other characters to appear don't worry the will appear. Also in case some new characters were introduced Homer Virgil, Tengu, Guan Yu, Hebe and Aether. Three of the first help created by the help of Oceonlord2017. Homer's name comes from the famous mythical poet Homer, Tengu is based of the crow goblin from Japanese myth, Guan Yu is based of a Chinese og of war, Hebe the greek goddess of youth and Aether primordial god of air also from greek myth. Anyway I hope you enjoyed and that did better this time, anyway until next time thanks for reading.
