Having finished eating ramen with mushrooms, Kurome left the restaurant where she had spent all the hour eating. Now she had new saber and a full stomach.

Looking at the city again, she said.

" This place ... it's not so bad. "

Getting ready to walk towards Peach's palace, she was surprised to see a huge figure in the sky.

" Hum? " She wondered, looking up.

Immediately she saw a wrecking boat flying through the air.

" What is that ? "

" AHHHH! It's Bowser. " Cried a Toad.

" Bowser attacks. "

" Bowser ? " Kurome wondered.

She then saw the flying ship heading for Peach's palace. Understanding the situation, she ran towards the building.


With Esdeath

"So who will has the courage to fight against us ? " Black wanted to know.

"Tsss! You are ridiculous." Esdeath asserted. '' But since the Jaegers seem to lack training, I will allow them to fight you! I really hope you can last more than two seconds against us. "

"What is that supposed to mean ?!" Red screamed as him and his brothers looked at Esdeath in fury. " You know what, whatever. We're supposed to get rid of you anyway."

He said, then his brothers and him got into their fighting poses.

"Why do you want to get rid of us? What have we done to you guys?" Wave asked. " Did Bowser give you this order? Why ? "

"This is nothing personal! Indeed, we are just following the orders of our leader, Bowser." Black said.

"Why work for a scoundrel like him? " Bols wanted to know. " Are you really happy spending your time kidnapping a helpless princess?"

"It's none of your business." Green retorted. "Working for Bowser, we can do whatever we want! And that's because we're elite soldiers. "

"Avoid talking too much, moron." Cried Red, noting that a multitude of Boos were watching them. " Remember that their deaths had to be discreet. "

"Sorry, I thought it didn't matter since we're going to get rid of it anyway." Said Green. "It's not that ghost lady that's going to be a problem for us anyway. "

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Red said before facing Esdeath. " Say your prayers. Guys, because it's gonna get nasty. "

Red and his brothers then rushed to the Jaegers.

"Remember what I told you." Esdeath exclaimed. " You can't activate your teigus! And if one of you loses, he will end his life wandering in this forest."

"Am I allowed to use the Grand Chariot as a sword ?" Wave wanted to know.

" Allowed. "

Finally, the quartet ran to the Koopa Bros. Esdeath faced the Red Koopa, Tatsumi took the Yellow Koopa, Wave took the Green Koopa and Bols took the Black Koopa.

Attempting to strike Esdeath, Red saw his punch be blocked by Esdeath's sword. then lifting his foot, he felt himself blocked again by Esdeath's weapon, which had managed to move her sword.

"What ? "

"Is there a problem ? " Esdeath wanted to know.

In response, Red hit his full speed, managing to increase the speed of each of his attacks. nonetheless, continuing to stay in one place, Esdeath only waved his sword to block his punches.

"I would have you ... I would have you ... I would have you."

However, getting ready to hit Esdeath's face, he froze. Fixing Esdeath's gaze, the koopa felt a bad omen.

Immediately, Red then jumped back and put a distance between him and Esdeath.

Seeing him do it, Esdeath began to applaud.

"I want to apologize! You noticed that I was going to kill you, didn't you? In the end, you have a very good instinct worthy of a good fighter."

Swallowing, Red moved into a defensive position.

"Who is she? Her gaze is as frightening as Bowser's and he's angry! This woman is not normal! If she decides to ally with Mario, we won't have the slightest chance of triumphing."

Knowing he had no choice but to defeat her, Red ran over to her, and tried to kick her in the face.

Continuing to smile, Esdeath simply snapped her fingers.

Immediately, a wall of ice appeared in front of her. Unable to slow down, Red punched him and felt his leg snap.

"AHHHHHHH !" He cried, falling to the ground.

Then, before he could react, an ice spear sliced through his shoulder, causing him to scream even harder.

"Come on! Defend yourself! I would then take a lot more pleasure in torturing you."


Jumping back, Tatsumi dodged Yellow's shurikens. Then looking at the old sword he had in his hand, he growled because it was almost broken, from his confrontation with Esdeath.

"What a pain! If I had Incursio, things would be a lot easier."

He then charged Jaune head-on, but Yellow jumped over him. Landing behind Tatsumi, he then attempted to punch him in the back. However, managing to bend down, Tatsumi felt her fist just brush against her hair. Then, turning his hips, he kicked his opponent's feet, using his leg, knocking him off balance.

Nevertheless, feeling himself falling backwards, Yellow managed to land on his hands, before performing a back somersault. Then, he continued his acrobatics by leaving a smoke bomb on Tatsumi. Finding himself in the middle of the cloud of smoke, Tatsumi began to cough.

"-cough -... I can't see."

Hearing him cough, Yellow laughed

"Ha ha ha, you can't beat me now."

However, due to the smoke, he did not see Tatsumi remain perfectly calm. As Akame and Bulat had taught him, Tatsumi decided to trust his senses.

"If you are unable to use sight, trust your hearing."

Running towards him, Yellow entered the smoke in an attempt to punch him. Still, knocking into the void, he finally felt Tatsumi's foot hit him in the face.


Using Grand Chariot as a sword, Wave nonetheless looked frustrated, seeing Green dodging his attacks, using surprising agility.

"Is that all you got?" Green asked as he continued to dodge Wave's movements.

Showing several daggers between his fingers, he jumped back, before throwing them.

Seeing them, Wave made a simple movement of her arm and blocked the daggers with her teigu.

But, already Green found himself behind him and tried to stab him with a dagger.

However, having been able to grab one of the daggers Green had thrown at him, Wave used it to block his opponent's weapon.

''What ? ''

To use Grand Incursion like a hammer, Wave struck the top of his opponent's head.


Black used his huge muscles to punch Bols with power. Crossing his arms in front of him, Bols took each of his punches. Then, bending his arm, he pointed his elbow in Black's face. Poising his palm in front of Bols's elbow, he managed to stop him.

"You won't get me with those kinds of attacks." Black said throwing another fist at Bols.

Getting punched in the stomach, Bols took two steps back. Staring at his mask, Black cried out.

"Hey! I think your mask is super cool! If I win, can I have it?"

"No way. " Bols retorted. " This mask has become a part of my soul! Without it, I could never live normally! "

"Don't worry! I'll make sure I kill you before I steal it from you. ""

Jumping towards Bols, he punched him in the face. However, managing to anchor his feet to the ground, Bols remained perfectly still, despite Black's powerful attack.

"Impos ..."

Not even having time to finish his sentence, Black spat out saliva, feeling Bols hit him in his abdomen.

Getting thrown back? Black flew in the direction of Esdeath. Having fun torturing Red, the young woman jumped in time to avoid getting hit by Black's body, who fell near her brother.

" Bols. " Esdeath growled.

" My excuses. "

At that moment, the bodies of Yellow and Green flew in their turn, landing near their brothers. Walking towards their companions, Wave and Tatsumi arrived.

"Damn it. " Wave growled, catching her breath. " In the end, they weren't that bad."

Standing up, Black, Green and Yellow groaned.

" Grrr! you will regret having humiliated us. "

However, they stopped, hearing Red's moans of pain.

" RED ! " They feared when they saw their injured brother.

Gritting its teeth, the koopa stood up with difficulty. Staring at Esdeath, he cried out.

" It must ... We must beat it! Right now ! If this woman can find other allies, she could very well defeat and kill Bowser. "

" What ? "

"Kill Bowser ?" Esdeath repeated.

Suddenly starting to smile, she declared.

"What a great idea! If I'm forced to stay in this world, maybe I'll find it fun to go meet him and fight him."

Seeing then the sadistic smile she displayed, while speaking, the koopas could not help but to take a step back.

Growling, Red realized how critical the situation was. They had been tasked with killing the quartet. Yet it had become evident that they were now in danger of being killed.

"Bro, these guys are much stronger than we expected. We have no choice but to use our new movement." Red says.

"What ?! Are you talking about ...?"

"Yes, our VERSION 2 special move." Red said before he and his brothers faced the Jaegers. "We have to kill them, let's say we're the ones who will get killed."

"Guys, we advise you to surrender. " Cried Wave. " We are not monsters! If you give up now, we will just put you in jail."

"You think you've won !? We haven't even shown you our true power yet! BROTHERS, LET'S GO! SPECIAL TECHNIQUE VERSION 2 ! "

The Koopa Bros got on top of each other and retreated into their shells; as soon as they did, they started spinning at an incredible speed.

As they were spinning, they began to charge the Jaegers at full speed.

Preparing to retaliate, the three men saw Esdeath running towards the koopa. Then, placing her hands on the ground, she created pillars of ice all around her. Bumping into them, the koopa began to bump into each other's senses. However, instead of losing control of their course, they managed to pick up speed, and continued to bump into the pillars.

" HAHAHA! Poor idiot! Instead of hindering us, your ice pillars will be the cause of your defeat. "

Seeing the general find himself surrounded by the Koopas, Wave pretended to go help her. Yet, feeling Tatsumi put his hand on his shoulder, he was surprised.

" Tatsumi? "

" Stay there! otherwise, Esdeath would risk killing you. "

" What ? "

Seeing the koppa bouncing all around her, Esdeath froze. Yet far from being afraid, she began to smile, noticing that her plan was working. The koopa had now acquired a satisfying power.

Then, at the same time, the four Koopas rushed towards her.

" We will win. "

However, at the very moment where they went to touch Esdeath, the young woman found herself behind them, putting her sword in its scabbard.

"What ?" Lady Bow wondered, who hadn't even managed to see her move.

"Incredible. "" Merlon cried. " No doubt she is much more powerful than Mario if he has no power-ups. "

suddenly, screaming in pain, the koopa felt lacerations forming on their abdomens, causing them to cough up blood. Falling to the ground, they screamed in pain, resting their hands on their wound.

"AHHHHHHH! Damn it! But who is this woman?"

"She is invincible! We have no chance of defeating her ."

"We have to go and warn Bowser. " Red cried, pretending to crawl on the floor.

Unfortunately, not wanting to let them escape, Esdeath created numerous ice spears, which she aimed at them.

" DIE! GRAUHORN ! "

" NOOOOOOO ! " Called the quartet.

" Blaziken! FLAMETHROWER ! "

Immediately, a pillar of fire struck Esdeath's spears and made them disappear.

" Hum ? " Esdeath wondered.

Walking quietly past the koopa, Goli stopped in front of Esdeath, while being in the company of a strange red creature.

Behind him, Jon and Megma were also present. Seeing them, Esdeath asked.

" I can know who you are ? "

" We? " Asked Goli. " We are the Raptors. "


Back to Peach's Castle...

"And else your brother is a man who was originally a plumber, but who ended up being the hero of this world, as well as a champion of all kinds of sports?"

Drinking tea again, Run seemed to sympathize with Luigi, who seemed to enjoy talking about Mario's exploits.

" Indeed ! Mario is good at everything! Yet he always remained humble and modest! he is the greatest hero in this world. "

Growling upon hearing this, Seryu was at the other end of the room, loath for Luigi to dare to pretend his brother was a hero. A hero was a person who saved people, killing evil. Since Mario refused to kill Bowser, it was because of this that the monster returned each time to kidnap Peach. So it was his fault. Mario was not a hero, but an idiot.

For his part, being again examining his floating cube, Stylish told her.

"Don't try to complicate things by talking with them, Seryu! After all, we're not from this world! It's not about telling us what's right or wrong!"

"If we're here, I'm sure it's because we just have to bring our justice here." Seryu retorted. " And for that, we have to kill Bowser. "

"And where's your brother? " Run wanted to know. " I imagine he must be living a life of luxury, hearing the number of times he's saved Peach-san."

"In fact, Mario has always done all of this for free." Peach retorted. " He always refused all the rewards I wanted to give him. "

Hearing this, Run left at first surprised. Then, finally, smiling, he declared.

"I understand! Indeed, it is very rare to meet a man like him."

"Mario never cares about money, what he cares about the happiness he gives to people." Peach explained.

"Hmph, what a bother." Seryu said. "If he just killed Bowser, he ..."

An explosion was suddenly felt.

"What…?" Stylish asked in surprise.

"An attack." Peach understood.

A wounded soldier then entered the room. "Princess ... Peach ..." The soldier said weakly. Peach rushed to his side.

"Oh my God, what happened to you?" Peach asked all worried.

"Princess… a big bespectacled turtle wants to kidnap you… you have to escape…" The soldier said before passing out.

"Mamma mia !" Luigi called himself.

Immediately, Run stood up, before yelling.

"Seryu, with me! Luigi, Stylish ... with the princess." Run said exiting the room, immediately followed by Seryu and Koro.

"Oh my God, are they okay ? " Peach asked.

"Don't worry, princess. " Stylish assured. " You should rather pity the opponents they are going to fight! They may have a terrible time! however, I am frustrated that I do not have my army with me! Without my soldiers, I feel quite vulnerable! I would have to find something to defend myself. "


Run and Seryu left the castle to see who they were dealing with. Stopping then, Run remained still, as an evil smile appeared on Seryu's face.

"Let me guess, you're one of Bowser's morons who came here to kidnap Peach-san." Seryu cried, as Koro was ready to fight.

"As Jaeger, it is our duty to stop you." Asserted Run. " See you and let us capture you. "

"Hey, are you a comedy duo? I'm Kent C. Koopa, the greatest Koopa that ever existed. Now give Princess Peach and I'll make sure you don't suffer much." Kent said.

Run looked around and saw several seriously injured toad soldiers. Residents all watched from a safe distance as they saw the destruction Kent caused. For his part, realizing that this monster was a Bowser soldier, Seryu laughed.

"You have a lot of courage to come and stand before us and pretend you want to kill us! Nevertheless, I think I must warn you! Evil can never triumph over justice."

"Justice? Tss, do you want to challenge me? Can't you see the size difference between you and me? I can run over you, your boyfriend, your dog and you, like the little insects that you are." Kent said.

"If you think size is the only thing that matters in a battle, then you're completely stupid." Run asserted, spreading his wings. " If you want a fight, I think we have no other choice . "

"KORO!" Seryu cried.

Immediately his dog grew in size and became a real colossus.

" What is that ? How can you fly or grow without eating mushrooms? "

"Mushroom?" Run asked in surprise.

Kent suddenly raised his arm and tried to flatten them. Immediately, Run flew away, while Seryu remained with her arms crossed.

"Koro ! "

Immediately, her teigu positioned itself in front of her, and felt Kent's arm crush the top of her head. Immediately, cracks appeared around the feet of the huge dog. however, he managed to stay upright, much to Kent's surprise.

" What ... ? "

Suddenly he felt pain, as strange projectiles fell from the sky and pierced his flesh.

"AHHHHH ! " He yelled.

Still managing to open his eyes, he managed to catch a glimpse of Run, throwing sharp feathers at him. Growling, Kent hid in his shell, which Run's feathers couldn't pierce.

" KORO! ARM ! "

Then running towards Kent, Koro increased the size of his arms, and began to punch the okra with force. In one fell swoop, Kent felt his huge body kick back.

" Imposssiiiiibbbbllle. "

Seeing it fly towards them, toads began to flee and the okra finally crashed, crushing their homes.

" Seryu! Be careful ! " Cried Run. " There are civilians around us. "

" I must triumph over evil. " Cried Seryu, who seemed to ignore his words. " Koro! End this fight. "

Pulling his head from its shell in time, Kent saw the dog running towards him. Getting up, he seized a house, which he broke in his hands.

Then, aiming at Koro, he hurled the whole debris, with phenomenal power.

Unable to avoid them, Koro was struck by most of the debris, which looked like cannonballs. Continuing on their way, the debris found itself in front of Seryu, who was astonished to find that she was in danger.

" What ... ? "

Suddenly a pair of arms grabbed her and Seryu felt himself flying through the air. Debris passed below her, pulverizing the ground where she had previously been.

"Run ! " She rejoices.

" Finally, I have to admit that this guy's size gives him an advantage. "

Seeing the duo fly, Kent grabbed another dwelling and crushed it in his hands.

" You may well know how to fly, I doubt that you can defend yourself against my attacks. "

Throwing more debris, he hoped he could hit Run that way. However, creating feathers around him, Run aimed them at the projectiles, which exploded on contact.

"Seryu! Can you assist me with your weapons ? "

"I need Koro for this."

Speaking of teigu, Koro was reforming his body, and eventually got to his feet in front of Kent. Seeing him, Seryu ordered him.

" Kick his leg. "

" Hum? " The Koopa wondered, lowering his gaze.

Too late. Finding himself in front of his leg, Koro gave him a phenomenal punch that shattered his femur. Screaming in pain, the giant tortoise fell to one knee. Seeing this, Run threw out new sharp feathers. However, Kent slid back into his shell, to protect himself.

" Koro, destroy his shell. "

Opening its jaws wide, the teigu spun like a top before biting Kent's caparace. Immediately, crackling rips were heard, as Kent felt Koro's teeth scratch his shield, gradually damaging it.

Nonetheless, as he was about to shatter the shell, Koro felt Kent's hand grip him, while he had pulled his arm out of its shell.

Using his strength, Kent then aimed at Run and Seryu, before hurling Koro in their direction.

Immediately, Run flew higher, and the pair saw Koro pass below them, before crashing across town.

" Koro ! " Seryu called himself.

" Tsss! this turtle is much stronger than I thought. " Run remarked.

Having no other choice, he flew in the direction of the palace, and put Seryu on the roof.

" Hey! What are you doing ? "

" I can't fight to the maximum holding you! I'll leave you here and you'll wait for Koro to come back! once done, I'm counting on you to damage the shell of this turtle with your missiles! Once she's destroyed, I could finish her off with my attacks. "

" Okay ! "

Then returning to fight Kent, Run throwing new feathers at him. Feeling them crash into his shell, Kent groaned.

" You start to annoy me, you. "

Kent then stood up quickly and grabbed a house in each of his hands. Then he threw a multitude of debris. since the projectiles were twice as numerous as before, Run was forced to perform all kinds of aerial stunts to avoid them.

"I admit you're pretty good at avoiding my attacks, but now it ends here." Kent gasped as he pulled out a firewall. "I'm going to burn you alive, and no one will stop me!" Kent exclaimed as he was about to throw the firewall on Run, until ...

"WOHOOO ..."

"What is that?!" Kent gasped before looking up and his face planted by someone's feet, and it wasn't Run.

This knocked down Kent's firewall, which the mysterious person hit it with a hammer, and it flew towards Kent's face and exploded.

"ARRGH!" Kent cried in pain as he tried to force the flames out of his face.

As soon as the fire went out, Kent went to see who had attacked him.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE !?" Kent shouted at the mysterious person.

The mysterious person then put his hammer on his shoulder. He then turned to Kent and said.

"Itsa me, Mario".

" Mario ? " Kent and Run are surprised.
