We are back again with an update. Today it is Oberon's Duty. I hope you are all liking the story so far. Plenty more to go I'm sure everyone is aware.
A couple review responses first.
A Review from agnar says: I don't really read/follow fairy tail on its own, but I cannot understand why so many people like Natsu. He's really far more annoying and destructive than he's worth. He NEVER learns, he doesn't actually seem to TRAIN to get stronger, just thinks picking fights over and over is enough.
He's one of those 'main characters' I've come to hate, like Issei in DxD. It just feels like the canon storyline would be so much better if the MC weren't such an annoying dickhead.
Response: I agree wholeheartedly. Honestly fairy tail as a whole kind of struggles with the main character but, I think the best way to look at it as the guild itself is the main character and the members are the entertainment. Truth be told Natsu is obnoxious at best in most cases, that is why he is almost always relegated to comic relief in most crossover fics I think. That being said, he makes an excellent side character. Still a bit annoying at times but with less spotlight and a bit more decent comedic moments that aren't just slapstick.
Review by Zenzetsu. It is a bit too lengthy for me to copy it into an author note but if you with to read it just check out the review section
My response: I will start out with saying that taking the time to write out a sizable review good or bad is worth something so thanks. After that though I have to wonder what exactly you are looking for in fanfiction. More specifically fairy tail fanfiction. You seem to want a very nuanced and serious story or at least the wording of your review gives me the impression that you have rather high standards for fanfiction stories. I do have to wonder what kind of person expects something like that from fairy tail though. The original source material is hardly more than a continuous roll of comedic moments and the occasional power of friendship spiel. I suppose all I can really say is maybe look in more serious sections for stories that you will like because I think you are wasting your time in the fairy tail section. Especially on a story that is basically smut with plot. So yeah Naruto is stronger than Erza and yes I have rolled with the Oberon but because I have never seen that actually taken very far in a story. They all get abandoned but that's fanfiction for you. However this story is not supposed to be anything more than unreasonably strong dude has sex with unreasonably beautiful girls….smut fic.
Anyway let's get moving on.
For those that want to hang out and chat with readers and writers of fanfiction on discord I have a couple invites for you. The first is for a server hosted by myself, Kiege, and Madlad also known as TheChamp123 here on fanfiction. A link for that can be found here→ /auc4PQjVtz the second is for the Goat server hosted by AizenTheGoat which can be found right here→ /7x4YFstKcz
Now its been too long since I worked on this story in my opinion but between commissions and other fics I kept pushing it down my list of things to work on. Well no more, I hope you enjoy.
Chapter 4
Naruto's communication lacrima went off far before he expected it to. He had just finished checking through the town of Lodwig's Port and based on what he knew about Pelson's Port, Erza would be close to finishing her search as well.
Instead of his girlfriend though, the image that appeared in the lacrima was that of Master Makarov and Mira pressed into frame with troubled looks on their faces.
"Master? Is everything alright? Is there something wrong with Erza?" Naruto asked suddenly worried that while he had searched Lodwig Erza had been ambushed by demons in Pelson.
"Everything is fine on her end my boy. I just finished speaking to her and she is fine." Makarov eased Naruto's worry.
"Okay then, what's wrong? It's not about this girl we're tracking is it?" Naruto guessed.
"I'm afraid not, however if you are finished in Lodwig it may be in the same direction as your mission would be taking you." Makarov explained.
Naruto allowed the master to explain what had happened. He knew that Makarov wouldn't have contacted him and Erza if it wasn't something important and there was nothing more important than the safety of their guildmates.
"Natsu and Happy stole an S class quest for the Curse on Galuna island. They drug poor Lucy into their nonsense as well." Mira said.
"We sent Gray to retrieve them but Natsu managed to get the drop on Gray and knocked him out. They've taken him with them to the island as well." Makarov said.
"Wait, Gray? He's no S rank wizard, Master. What were you thinking? You should have sent Laxus." Naruto argued.
"We tried!" Mira cut in. "Laxus refused to go, he just started spouting off about them all either dying on the quest or getting expelled from Fairy Tail when they return."
Naruto was still hesitant when it came to Mira, but he could tell she was incredibly worried about their guild mates. It won her quite a bit of praise in his mind.
"I'm sure Erza will have some things to talk with him about when we all get back. She is already headed toward Hargeon, right?" Naruto asked.
"She said she would make her way there to link up with you, she needed to handle something first. She didn't specify exactly what that was though." Makarov replied.
"Hmm, well whatever it is I'm sure she has it handled, I need to get moving to meet up with her in Hargeon. I bet Natsu and his group will already be on Galuna Island by the time both of us reach the town though." He pointed out.
"If you must complete the quest for them, then do it. But your main priority is getting everyone home safe and sound." Makarov ordered.
"Understood, Master. I'll get my hands on a ticket to Hargeon and be on my way. I'll call you for a report whenever Erza and I link up." Naruto said before ending the message.
He slid the lacrima into his bag and set out for the station. He was annoyed but honestly not all that surprised with Natsu's action and couldn't help but feel more of his ire geared toward Laxus.
The only other thought he had while buying his ticket though was to wonder what Erza was taking care of. He trusted her to handle whatever it was but it must have been important for her to stop their current quest or not take straight off after Natsu and the others.
The important thing that Erza had to handle? Pirates. According to the terrified people of Pelson, savage pirates had been ransacking their town and nearby homesteads for a couple of weeks now and they could hardly mount a decent defense against them
Erza was not about to ignore the plight of these people. Especially not when taking on these pirates would give her a perfect means to travel to Hargeon and then out to Galuna quickly. The only real hassle is she would need to rough up the Pirates bad enough that they were afraid of her and willing to follow her orders, but not bad enough that they wouldn't be useful to her.
She ran into that kind of thing more often than most did and it was just another hassle for her to overcome.
Kind of like how she had to overcome the challenge of getting out into the little bay and onto the ship. A hassle but something she managed easily enough. Just swim to it.
Using her requip magic, she changed into an armor set that helped her to swim faster and more easily. Though armor was a bit of a stretch for the name. It was more like a micro bikini that barely covered her nipples and crotch. The fisherfolk of Pelson gaped and stared, several women became livid at the sight, and a handful of young boys suddenly discovered something new about themselves.
Erza of course ignored them all. Or perhaps simply didn't realize the affect she had on them as she dove into the sea with perfect form and raced across the water in a powerful breaststroke.
It took no time at all for her to reach the pirate ship and she quickly scaled the side of the vessel and leapt onto the deck with a club materializing in her hands.
The pirates stared at the beautiful woman with so much exposed skin in shock and lust even after she requipped a club into her grasp.
"Which one of you is the Captain?" She demanded getting each of the men to grin before a large man with a large hat began pushing his way to the front of the leering pirates.
"That'd be me, gorgeous. Did the town send you out to appease us? Cause surely you don't intend to fight us all, especially dressed like that." The captain chuckled.
"Be a hell of a time though." One of the others jeered.
"That it would be." The captain replied.
"Trust me, I could crush you all in the buff with my arms tied behind my back. I'm just in a bit of a rush, so I am going to beat you all up a little and you'll do what I say or I'll...um, do pirates still keelhaul people?" Erza said as she got ready to fight.
"Well, wherever you need to be in such a hurry is going to have to wait. You're going to entertain us for a while." The captain said again only for Erza to swing her club faster than he could see and send him spinning across the deck with a broken nose and about ten less teeth.
"It will only take a moment really." Erza said as she approached the other pirates.
"Get her!" One of the pirates screamed, and with that the crew charged her.
The redhead didn't even break a sweat. She swung the massive club around herself like it was a baton instead. Every swing sent someone sliding across the deck with their head spinning and bruises decorating their body.
Just like Erza had said, it only took a moment and she had defeated the entire crew. They all knelt before her like servants with their heads bowed as she looked them over. By now she had changed back into her normal attire, though the fact she now had a blade instead of a club allowed none of them to relax.
"You all belong to me now! Do as I say and by the end of all this I will put in a good word to the Rune Knights that arrest you. You may even get a lighter sentence. Not that any of you scumbags deserve it!" She hollered.
"Man, I gotta say she is a take charge kind of girl. I kinda like that." The captain said as he stared up at the redhead who was beginning to give them orders.
"I get what you mean cap," His first mate stated. "I have the most confusing erection right now."
The captain glanced at the man blankly before turning his focus back in the redhead. He didn't want to get on her bad side. Especially when she now had a sword.
"I think I recognize her now. The Titania from Fairy Tail. We should have just given up when we saw the guild mark tattoo." One of them said.
"Shit all I saw was her tits and hips. Then the next thing I knew we were charging and the next thing after that I wake up again kneeling beside the rest of you. I don't think it would have mattered if we saw the guild mark or not." Another admitted.
"Stop chatting like housewives and get to work!" Erza bellowed as she stomped on the man who had spoken before continuing across the deck to order around the other pirates that were doing as she told them.
"Ugh, hurts so good." The pirate moaned in both pleasure and pain.
"Man you're fuckin weird." The other said before he jumped to work as Erza looked their way.
With her new ship and crew, she would have no problem at all in reaching Hargeon and then getting to Galuna Island. An easy win.
With Natsu and the others, things were getting off to a mixed start. Having knocked Gray out and tied him up to get him onto the boat, they felt like they were off to a pretty good start. Then of course Natsu recalled that he didn't handle any mode of transport and began feeling sick. He flopped down onto the floor of the small boat and thankfully hung his head over the side as he threw up any recent meals he'd eaten.
Lucy had steadily felt a sense of trepidation build within her chest since leaving Hargeon. To the point that she was starting to feel sick as well, though not quite to the grotesque level Natsu was.
"Great, now I'm starting to get scared." Lucy complained.
"You're one to talk, after getting me mixed up into all this crap!" Gray shouted at her.
"And you too! Why did you launch the boat if you saw them kidnapping me?" Gray asked.
"Well, to be honest kidnappings seem to happen kinda often in Hargeon." Lucy commented, recalling her own experience in meeting Natsu.
The owner of the boat stopped feeding magic into the craft's engine as he turned to face Gray. He looked a bit apologetic at least. Still he had technically helped Gray's guildmates kidnap him.
"My name is Bobo, I was once a citizen of that island." He explained.
"I ran away from that cursed island. If you go to that island grave misfortune will befall you. Can you really undo the curse?" Bobo asked.
The man then pulled back his cloak to reveal his left arm. One that had become shell like and black as coal. It looked warped and monstrous, perhaps even painful.
"The demon curse." Bobo said dramatically.
"The curse, your arm…" Lucy gasped while Gray and Happy stared in shock.
"The curse, look out there you can see it now." He replied motioning toward the distant island.
At the peak of the island's central mountaintop an eerie yellow light glowed, illuminating the landmass against the sea.
"That's Galuna Island." Bobo said.
"What is that shining on the peak?" Lucy asked him.
When there was no answer she and the others turned back to ask him again. Only to see he was gone, vanished entirely like he had never been there at all.
"Huh? Where did he go?" Lucy shouted, jumping to her feet.
"Did he fall overboard?" Gray asked, actually worried for the man's safety.
While they were trying to find him in the water a dull rumbling steadily began to overtake the sounds of the wind and waves.
"What is that sound?" Lucy asked.
"No way!" Gray shouted, drawing her attention back to the other side of the craft only to scream at what she saw.
"It's a giant wave!" Lucy screamed in terror.
"We're gonna be engulfed. Hold on to something!" Gray shouted, only to realize he was currently tied up.
"Wait no, first cut me free!" Gray shouted.
"Happy fly the ship! Hurry!" Lucy scrambled as she ignored Gray and clung onto the side of the boat for dear life.
"You're too heavy to carry without Gray, Natsu, and a boat to add on top!" Happy cried out.
"You useless little-" Lucy began to berate Happy until the wave slammed into the boat and shattered it into pieces hurling them into the water and beneath the waves.
When Naruto stepped off of the train at Hargeon Port he immediately set about checking around for the mysterious girl that was connected to all the recent demon appearances. Like with the town before, practically nobody had any information they could give him. It almost seemed like Hargeon was another dead end.
At least until Naruto caught sight of several townsfolk fleeing a small outdoor market. As typical of a seaside town it was packed with fishermen's stalls selling their catch. Or at least it would be if the stalls hadn't been torn to shreds and the haul of fish hadn't been snatched up by possibly the tiniest little demon Naruto had seen.
The damned thing was still the size of a train car, but compared to most he had witnessed it was practically a baby.
Naruto caught it with a thick vine that tightly wound up around it before constricting down until the monster was crushed. The sudden destruction of its physical form coupled with such a recent summoning meant that the creature returned to the pure ethernano it had previously been.
Inadvertently this fed Naruto's own construct, converting his spell into that of a large healthy tree, albeit one with a goofy looking face in the middle of the trunk. It actually made the little market a bit nicer and provided some much needed shade to the townsfolk whenever they were selling their products.
The people applauded and thanked him, which Naruto appreciated, but he now knew he was close.
"Sorry everyone, can you please tell me if you saw a woman with black hair here just before that demon was summoned?" Naruto asked.
Some of the folks looked around. They had just been minding their usual business when the monster had appeared. They hadn't even known it was a real demon. For the vast majority they could only shake their heads in the negative.
One little boy drug his mother forward. She did indeed have black hair and was a bit similar to the girl he was looking for but this woman was easily in her thirties or early forties while the woman he was after was at most in her mid twenties.
"That was an actual demon? Like a demon of Zeref?" The woman asked as she stopped her overly excited son. The crowd grew nervous once again at that knowledge. They now eyed the face on the tree with abject terror.
"It was, but just a very weak one. You don't have to worry about it ever again. That tree is one hundred and ten percent my creation and not demonic in the slightest." Naruto said calming the townsfolk down a bit. He just hoped he wasn't completely full of bullshit by saying that. Who knew exactly how his spell had been altered just now.
"Wait, this black haired girl. I think I might have seen her. Kinda younger, real cute?" An older man asked.
"That could be her, although I guess black haired and a young woman aren't really great for narrowing her down, now that I think about it." Naruto mumbled.
"Well, this one was all dressed in white, like it was a uniform of some kind and she muttered something weird right before the monster appeared. I can almost swear she said something about Zeref, but I just thought maybe she was frightened by the monster and called it a demon of Zeref while running away." The old man continues.
"Now that narrows it down. Can you tell me which way she went? Even if it's not the one I'm looking for it's the best lead I've had so far." Naruto said.
"Through that alleyway, it leads straight out to the docks." The man said.
"Thanks old man!" Naruto called back as he took off down the alley. He just hoped he could catch up before she started causing real trouble.
Unfortunately, it seemed luck wasn't on his side this time.
As he stepped out from between the buildings he came to a shocking sight.
A tentacled monstrosity, much larger than the demon in the market earlier, was attacking boats and people on the docks with impunity. Many tried to flee, only to be swept over the side of the docks by the creature's long, dangerous tentacles.
Oberon couldn't stand aside and let it continue. His search for the summoner of this monster would have to wait even if he was close now. He sprinted forward and requipped a trident as he tried to dive onto the monster's main body.
The demon was far more agile than a natur octopus or squid though and easily swept him aside. Its massive tentacles hit him like a full speed train and he was sent airborne before splashing down into the water.
Sinking for a moment, Naruto struggled to swim with the painful ache that covered his body from the blow. He managed to reach the surface despite the massive waves churned up by the creature as it flailed about and sucked in a desperate gasp of air.
He tried to reach the docks so that he could try a different approach but the demon had kept an eye on the human that resisted being crushed the first time. It wrapped one of its tentacles around him faster than he could react and lifted him out of the water.
Naruto screamed in pain as it began to crush him in its grasp. He almost felt sympathetic to the demon he had crushed to death in a similar manner earlier. Almost but not quite.
Still, Naruto couldn't pull his arms free to properly fight back as the demon crushed the life out of him. His vision began to cloud, just as the beautiful sight of a familiar red head crashing down onto the top of the beast's tentacle severing it with her sword. Naruto and the detached tentacle toppled down to the waters below as he struggled free of the now lax grip.
He had managed to get free and pull himself out of the water onto the dock just in time to see Erza transition her armor through requip into her Ocean Matriarch armor set. It was a golden scaled armor that held a pattern of fish scales, sea shells, and seaweed woven together to form a very tight form fitting garment. While it didn't magically increase her speed in the water as much as her enchanted bikini did, it did allow her to breath underwater as well as move with an agility and power no human could normally manage while fighting and swimming simultaneously.
Her weapon had changed as well. Still a sword, it had the appearance of a gutting knife but exponentially larger in size than one a fisherman might use. Using that gnarly hook she tore open the demon's body as she kicked off and ripped a gaping wound across its form. Just as she was about to land a finishing blow, the monster changed it's tactics and worked to put distance between itself and the woman that was hurting it so badly.
Using it's incredibly powerful tentacles and flexible body it blasted off away from the docks of Hargeon town sending Erza careening through the water herself until she was swept over the sea wall and splashed down onto Hargeon's streets.
"Ugh. That's going to be sore tomorrow." She groaned as she made her way back up to her feet. Naruto was soon by her side giving her a shoulder to lean on.
"You came in in the nick of time, babe." Naruto said as he helped her up.
"What was it that you always used to say, something like the hero arrives at the last second?" She asked jokingly. Naruto snorted at his words from when they were both young children in Fairy Tail.
"I'm glad you can joke after that. You don't look too roughed up. What's the plan?" Naruto asked her.
"Why am I coming up with a plan?" She asked him.
"Well you pulled my ass out of the fire this time around and cut it up pretty bad, Erza. I think you get the lead here." Naruto said with a grin.
"Well then can you put me in the air over it somehow? I can make some sushi for lunch if you're interested." She said with a wicked grin and twinkle in her eyes.
Naruto smirked as he began a spell to do just as she wished.
"Air Erza is about to lift off babe." Naruto said as a spongy material formed across the ground around her. At Naruto's will, a strangely shaped plant formed with a massive single leaf that was stuck to the ground by some quickly weakening sap.
"Get ready." Naruto said.
"Ready when you are." Erza replied as she requipped her sword into a spear that looked almost like a barbed fishing hook.
Naruto nodded and released the makeshift catapult launching Erza up into the air. She flew high above the harbor before swinging her legs around to position herself perfectly above the monster as it thrashed just past the docks. Then she began to descend, falling right onto the crest of the demon's head, above one of it's six eyes.
With a shout of exertion, she plunged her spear into the creature's vulnerable point before yanking it to the side and causing the demon to react accordingly as it tried to flee from the attack, only to move closer to the town's sea wall. And Erza's waiting partner.
He wasted no time after he had launched Erza like a living projectile. He had run to grab the heaviest of chains that he could still swing about and with a requip of his own, Naruto had forged his very own monster grade harpoon.
Sadly it was too heavy and unwieldy to hurl at his target, which meant he had to charge into the mess of writhing tentacles that were beating against the town's sea wall and docks. With the sight of Erza narrowly dodging an attack from the creature as she removed a second eye from the left side of the demon's putrid face, Naruto put aside any caution and charged forward at the demon with a battle cry.
He jumped over the ledge along the sea wall and fell a short ways down to the exposed side of the monster as it continued to try and detach Erza from it's head. It didn't even notice Naruto until he was embedding his harpoon nearly three feet deep into the demon's tough hide.
The subsequent roar of pain and rage burst a few nearby windows and nearly drove both wizards to their knees. Erza managed to fight her way through the sudden nausea she was experienced from such a deafening sound so close to her and plunger her fish hook like spear into the monster's mouth as deeply as she could, hooking it's barbs at the back of it's throat.
"Naruto!" Erza called, throwing him the rope attached to her spear. He wasted no time in securing it around a thick stone pillar and using it as a makeshift pulley. Between the harpoon keeping it from gaining any leverage and Naruto's strength, the demon was slowly drug free from the water and up against the rocks just outside the town sea wall.
Erza requipped yet again, this time equipping back into her normal attire with her tried and true steel sword. She stabbed the blade into the creature's hide before kicking off and using her sword as a way to slow her descent and carve open yet another massive gas across it's belly.
When she landed she didn't wait around at all either. She carved away at the now exposed important organs of her opponent while Naruto held the creature down for her to kill it. Thankfully he didn't have to hold it much longer before Erza found the heart and planted her trusty sword up to the hilt into it.
The demon let out one final choked roar of pain and anger before falling silent with a final exhale. Even with it dead, though both wizards were slow and cautious as they released their holds and checked over the kill. They weren't about to forget that these demons usually ended up being far more intelligent than they initially appeared.
"It's dead alright." Erza said as she freed her blade and took the liberty to puncture a few more organs just to be on the safe side.
"Finally. I think it did what it was meant to do though." Naruto said as he turned tot look at the broken and wrecked dock area of the town.
"Just to destroy the docks of Hargeon? Why though?" Erza asked him.
"To stop us from following our real target." Naruto said handing the picture of the woman responsible for the summoning to Erza.
"You saw her?" She asked.
"Not quite. She summoned one in the market nearby that I killed but one of the people said they saw her summon it and when I followed that lead…" Naruto said.
"This pretty much screams hey look at me I am summoning demons for Zeref to distract you as I run away." Erza agreed. "Think she took a boat out?"
"No way of telling for sure unless someone saw her do it. The docks are too roughed up to get a definite figure on what is missing and what's not. I would bet she headed out to Galuna though. The Demon Cursed Island seems a bit too obviously connected to the woman summoning Demons don't you think?" Naruto pointed out.
"Agreed. Come on I have a ship out past the harbor that can take us." Erza said as she led the way, having to hop over one of the tentacles strewn about the dockyard.
"I-is that a pirate ship?" Naruto asked a bit disbelieving before he snorted in laughter.
"I have got to hear how this happened." Naruto said.
Erza saw no harm and decided to regale her boyfriend with the story of how she had taken over the pirate crew. One that both entertained him and set him on edge. Armor set or not, he was not fond of others seeing so much of his girl. He put that aside though. He didn't need to spout off about some stupid moment of jealousy. After all she was his girlfriend, he won out in that regard.
Lucy slowly came to on a pleasant beach somewhere with broken pieces of their little boat and Natsu, Gray, and Happy were each spread around the wreckage in slumbering heaps of their own.
"Ugh, Where am I?" She moaned out as the bright sunlight briefly blinded her until she could fully wake up.
"Is this Galuna Island?" She wondered aloud as Natsu and the others came around.
"Ha! We finally arrived!" Natsu cheered.
"Natsu, don't act like we just got ferried to the island. We were washed up by a giant rogue wave!" Lucy grumbled.
"Good thing we lucked out. We could have drowned out there." Gray said, feeling a bit sick. Unlike the others he'd been bound up during the whole thing, it was a terrifying experience and he was pretty sure he was going to die.
"What was with that guy? He said something about the Demon Curse." Lucy said. Her mind was already working on a way to break the curse and of course avoid it falling onto them. Not that she really knew how the curse worked to avoid it though. That thought only added to her worry.
"Who cares, let's go exploring!" Natsu cheered once more. He was in bright spirits after everything, which Lucy and Gray had to admit didn't surprise them all that much.
It did annoy them though.
"What are you talking about? Are you more interested in that than the quest?" Lucy demanded. She shook her head and decided she needed to show backbone. That was part of her drive to take this quest in the first place after all. She wanted to get that zodiac key for herself, but she felt like doing so would show that she wasn't just a pity case for her housemates.
Her emotions regarding that were a bit muddled up, but she did want to prove herself to them even if they said that she didn't need to. If they could succeed here, then maybe she could feel like she had done just that.
Not that it would put her on their level. She wasn't an S rank wizard. But she could still feel more powerful and well useful to them.
That would start by taking charge here though.
"Alright, take a look at this map of the island I brought." She said getting the pair of Natsu and Happy to calm down and look over her shoulder at the map in her hands.
"There's a single village here on the island. The chieftain there is the one that put in the request with the guilds for help. We will search him out first." Lucy said, getting nods from the boy and cat beside her.
"Wait a minute." Gray interrupted their planning. He had broken free of the restraints at some point and clearly wasn't happy about what had happened.
"What, the boats wrecked into little pieces so you can't take us back even if you could beat me in a fight." Natsu said with a haughty air.
Gray took a calming breath to not rise to the bait in Natsu's statement before shaking his head. "No, I'm coming with you. It would be annoying if you got to go to the second floor before me, and if you got expelled that wouldn't be any fun. The guild would feel too boring. If we do this job right, Gramps really has nothing to complain about, does he?"
The group grinned at that and nodded.
"Then let's get started!" Lucy shouted, getting agreement from the others.
They then began trekking deeper into the jungle on the island toward the village…hopefully.
After making sure that they weren't truly injured beyond some scrapes and bruises, Naruto and Erza had set sail with her band of shanghaied pirates. Sadly, during the fight with the Demon of Zeref, both of them had either lost their lacrima to contact Master Makarov or had it destroyed. Thankfully one of the people they had saved in the port allowed them to use one of their own to report to the master.
Makarov was understandably worried about the fact that this follower of Zeref was summoning monsters in the area and in increasing frequency. Naruto and Erza had both learned that the woman had stolen a boat just before summoning the tentacled demon and raced out of the harbor in the direction of Galuna island.
That worried all of them that Natsu, Lucy, Gray, and Happy were essentially caught between a woman capable of calling upon some of the most dangerous monsters in earthland and whatever curse hung over the Island of Galuna.
That meant Erza had literally cracked the whip on her pirate crew. It was crazy the range of her armor sets, the Uplifting Domme set was one of her racier ones as well. She loomed over the crew cracking an actual whip while dressed in extremely tight and sexy latex with knee high boots. The crack of her support weapon seemed to make the men work faster and harder through more than just pain. The set actually had an effect on those submitting themselves to the red head that encouraged them and pushed them past their normal physical limits.
Naruto took a few notes for later…just in case.
They made quick time across the sea out to the island. Naruto just hoped they could get there before something bad happened to the others. And that he could keep Erza from using her current set against them…too much.
Alrighty that is that. A bit of a short one, but soon we will have all the main characters on Galuna and things will quickly escalate from there. I think maybe two or three chapters left on this arc before we move past it. A few big things will be happening soon though so I look forward to that.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed.
Till Next Time
