I own nothing.

Now then, apparently that Hiatus wasn't as long as I thought. Now, I have started doing the original death battles, as you've seen. I did this because writing the rewritten death battles for this was hard enough. I decided it would be a good idea to separate my original death battles. Plus, let's face it, I like writing these.

For Link, imagine how he looks in Breath of the Wild, only with his shirt colored green.

Chapter 14: Super Soldier Smackdown

Everyone was waiting patiently for the next episode to load. Well, almost everyone Franky was standing by impatiently with a notepad and pencil, clearly wanting to get some ideas for some new weapons for the sunny or for himself.

The screen opened to reveal Boomstick and Wizard, both looking abnormally serious.

Wiz said, "There are those who stand above the rest. Those who stand against tyranny and face the greatest of adversaries. They are the few. They are the proud. They are the marines."

Boomstick said, "And what is better than a regular marine…a goddamn space marine, that's what!"

Wiz said, "John-117 the Master Chief."

Boomstick declared, "And the Flynn Taggart aka, the doom guy!"

"Okay we know who we are now get to the good stuff already!" Franky said, looking like he was going to wet his speedo.

"Is it just me or is it weird seeing him like that?" Usopp whispered to Chopper.

Chopper answered, "It is weird."

Wiz said, "In the universe, there is a name spoken. He is a hero to his friends and a demon to his enemies. He is known to all as the Master Chief."

Boomstick said "Oh, I've been looking forward to this. If you've got a problem, you can call in the MC to fight off your problem. But before he was the hero of the space marines, he was known simply…as John."

Master Chief

-John-117

-Height: 6'10''

-Weight: 995 lbs (in armor)

Rank: Master Chief Petty Officer

Luffy said, "He kind of sounds like gramps."

Robin said, "Being a hero of the marines sounds very interesting. I wonder what tricks and tools this guy has."

Wiz said, "Before we get to the fighter, here's a bit of background information. After the second world war, the nations of the planet came together to form the united nations. This would lead to massive increases in technology, including space travel."

"Second World War?" Robin asked.

Isom said, "Unfortunately it happened. There were deep wounds left by that war in my world.

Boomstick said, "The people of this united earth put people on all the planets in the solar system, and beyond, but unfortunately, things did not go so well. It turns out that other beings were there, and like a guy who shows up late to a party, they weren't that welcome."

Wiz said, "This was the covenant. A group of religious aliens, who believed that they were god's weapon against the humans and were determined to destroy them."

Boomsitck said, "And they did a damn good job. These aliens came with a massive armada and could turn whole planets into gigantic chunks of glass!"

Everyone gasped as they saw a clip of a reach being turned into a giant ball of glass by the covenant.

"Oh my god," Nami said aloud. Chopper and Usopp looked horrified, and even Luffy was shocked, even he could grasp the thought of planetary destruction.

Robin's fist clenched as she had brief flashbacks to the destruction of her home island at the hands of the navy. Zoro, in a rare moment of compassion, patted the girl on her shoulder, and Sanji bristled as he sensed it.

Wiz said, "It was due to this that the need for powerful heroes would arise. Thus, the UNSC, or united nations space command, authorized the use of the SPARTAN program, a secret military project used to create super soldiers during an insurrection in the earlier years of the UNSC. These soldiers would be dubbed SPARTANS as they were made for only one purpose: War."

"Spartans?" Robin asked, "Like the ancient Spartans Kratos came from."

Isom answered, "The same."

Franky said, "Well, I hope these guys live up to the name."

Boomstick said, "Sounds pretty kick ass, but there was a bit of a problem. The SPARTAN program could only be used on certain people of a certain age group. About six or so, and it isn't legal to bring kids into the army at that age…so they were a little…unorthodox when John was recruited."

Wiz looked at Boomstick blankly and said, "They kidnapped him and replaced him iwh ta clone that died shortly after. More than a little unorthodox, but anything to save the world I guess."

"They did what?!" Nami yelled.

Sanji scoffed and said, "Shitty military bastards."

Zoro said, "Oh that stinks."

Chopper said, "The pulled him away from his family. That's…why?"

Isom said, "This took place during a time call the insurrection, where civil war erupted in the UNSC, they needed soldiers who could fight anywhere as well as longer and harder than most. Unfortunately, they needed to train people from an early age, as older people wouldn't have been able to withstand the process."

Everyone was silent, even Franky looking a bit less excited now.

Wiz regained his professional look and said, "Anyway, John was found to be a perfect candidate. He was more mentally and physically developed than others in his age group, and had a drive to win, no matter what. This is what got the UNSC scientist, Dr. Halsey, who took John to the planet Reach."

Boomstick said, "Or as I call it, the world's worst daycare. It was there, that John began his new life as a soldier."

Boomstick said, "And damn did they. For the next, eight years he and his fellow program candidates trained by Chief Petty Officer Mendez in drills, physical training, military tactics, and a whole bunch of other boring school stuff. Probably because having a stupid soldier is a complete waste of time."

Nami said, "That makes sense. I mean, look at some of the marines we have to deal with."

Isom said, "To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if the world government actually did that on purpose just to make the soldiers easier to control."

Wiz said, "During this time, John proved to be on the best candidates they had, and after a mission where he took the reigns as leader, he was made the de facto leader of the Spartan-II."

Boomstick said, "He was already pretty damn tough, but John got even tougher when they were done with him."

Wiz said, "Upon turning fourteen and given the go ahead, John went through the SPARTAN program enhancements."

Spartan Augmentations

-Increased bone density

-Muscle enhancements

-Boost muscle growth

-enhanced visions

-Reflex enhancements

Wiz brought up a picture of a human body, and a laser pointer, pointing at several areas as he spoke.

The cyborg scientist explained, "As part of these enhancements Johns had metal graphed to his skeleton to increase bone density, protein complexes injected into his muscles to increase their density, a pellet put in his thyroid to increase muscle and skeleton growth, the blood flow increased to retinas and cones in his eyes, and had electric pulses sent to his brain to increase the electric pulses in his brain."

Chopper gasped as he heard all this.

"What is it Chopper?" Franky asked, looking at his short, furry friend.

Chopper answered, "These enhancements, they sound awesome, but they also seem dangerous."

Boomstick said, "In words people can actually understand, these enhancements made his bones nearly unbreakable, stronger, see better, and react quicker than anyone on the battlefield. Of course, these enhancements killed 30 people, and crippled twelve more, but who cares. It's still awesome."

"What!?" Chopper yelled, "Killed, but how? They shouldn't have been killed if the procedures were done properly."

Isom said, "Unfortunately, they were."

Everyone looked at Isom who explained, "Each enhancement came with their own personal problems if they failed. There was also the psychological stress of the enhancements. Not to mention, even while put under, the person receiving the enhancements were in a lot of pain."

Chopper shuddered at the thought.

Boomstick continued, "After all those enhancements and training, no doubt John was jacked. How jacked was he you might ask? Well, he was fourteen and he looked like an eighteen-year-old Olympic athlete. If that isn't enough, soon after getting used to his new body, he was bullied by a bunch of marines at the gym. When they fought, he killed to them with his bare hand, and crippled the others. Damn, that is one harsh puberty."

Wiz said, "After this, John began his military career fighting off several alien invasions, including the insurrection, the covenant we mentioned earlier, and the flood, a swarm of parasitic alien super zombies, quickly achieving the rank of master chief petty officer, and earning several medals."

Boomstick said, "And all thanks to his special equipment. The first of which is his special combat armor, the Mjolnir."

"Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy," Franky said, as he prepared to write down ideas for systems, or some enhnacements.

Mjolnir Powered Assault Suit Mark VI

Helmet – Heads Up Display, AI housing, neural interface

Armor Layers

-Titanium Alloy Outer Shell

-Titanium Nanocomposite Body Suit

-Hydrostatic Gel

-Polymerized Lithium Nibocene Layer

-Memory Processor Superconductor Layer

Magnetic Weapon Strips

Recharging Energy Shields

Wiz pressed a button that displayed the Mjolnir Mark VI, which then them apart revealing the layers inside.

Wiz explained, "The Mjolnir is the main armor for John and his fellow Spartans. These suits come with multiple layers. This includes and outer titanium shell, a titanium nanocomposite body suit, hydrostatic gel, a lithium nibocene layer, and a memory processor super conductor."

Boomstick groaned, "Oh so many big, boring words! To make it less boring, this armor can withstand a ton of damage, keeps the user safe from bullets thanks to all the titanium, the gel makes them nice and cozy whether its warm or cold and can save them from high-velocity impacts, increases his already incredible strength, and even holds a nice little computer for the wearer."

"Wow," Franky said writing down as fast as he could, "That sounds awesome! I could really use some fo these for my body or the ship! Now, I just have to figure out how to get some titanium."

Isom thought, 'Oh now I really can't wait to see General Franky after this.'

Wiz said, "That computer is Cortana, an AI clone of Dr. Halsey, the same woman who worked her medical magic on John. Cortana would aid John in several missions by hacking computers and even coming up with strategies."

Boomstick said, "Wait…doesn't Cortana count as outside help?"

Wiz said, "This is a one on one fight, so I don't think she'll be able to do much since she doesn't have to overcome other AI or take over ships. Anyway, Cortana and John wound up forming a deep bond becoming perfect partners in the fight against the covenant and flood."

"Wow…an AI," Franky said, "What's an AI?"

Isom explained, "Think a computer with a brain, that can think faster and more effectively than humans. Think if the Sunny was alive and could think on its own."

Everyone blinked and Sanji said, "Cool…but why does he get to talk to the pretty computer lady? She shouldn't be brought into combat!"

Wiz said, "John can communicate with Cortana through his helmet, which also provides a head up display, as well as a special neural implant, that links John's brain directly to the suit, so his motions are controlled by thoughts before movement."

Boomstick said, "However, this armor, while awesome, has it's flaws. It can be melted int eh wake of a plasma blast and can be punctured by armor-piercing rounds. Thankfully, he has an energy shield toat can take the damage, but it needs to recharge after taking a few hits."

Wiz said, "And on the off chance that he does get hurt, the suit comes equipped with several medical devices to patch him up."

Usopp said, "Wow, they got all the grounds covered."

Franky was still writing.

Chopper said, "Hey, Isom some of the medical equipment that they have, do you think you can help me get some of those. Possibly in the form of a medical kit?"

Isom said, "I don't see why not."

Boomstick said, "It also has a pretty crazy security feature. Due to the amount of stuff in the armor, this thing weighs nearly a half a ton. This, plus one of the slime layers, ensures that no one other than a SPARTAN can wear this armor."

Zoro said, "I think I could lift that."

Sanji said, "I could send it flying, moss head."

Zoro smirked and said, "Really, because the last metal thing you kicked nearly broke your leg."

Boomstick said, "But my favorite feature is the magnetic strips. These hold his weapons in place and can be deactivated and activated at a moment's notice to quickdraw the many weapons in his arsenal."

The screen changed to the armory, where dozens or gel torsos were set up and several tables with drapes on them. Boomsitck rubbed his hands excitedly, almost looking like a kid in a candy store.

Franky and Usopp began to pay extra attention to the group.

Arsenal

Side Arms

M6D Magnum

-Ammo: 12.7 mm semi-armor piercing

-Range: 400 ft

-Scope: 2x

M7 Submachine Gun

-Ammo: 5 mm

-Range: 155 ft

M9 Frag Grenade

-Kill Radius: 16ft

Boomstick said, "When in combat the chief aims with the M6D Magnum Pistol. This puppy holds up to 12 12.7 mm semi-armor piercing high explosive rounds, perfect for causing internal damage. Just try to walk off a shot from these babies."

Boomstick turned to a dummy and fired a few shots. The bullets punched through the skull of the dummy with ease.

He moved to another gun and continued, "He also carries the M7 caseless machine gun, equipped with a muzzle flash suppressor and a miniature reticle for close quarters gunfire."

He proceeded to demonstrate on a dummy, blowing apart its midsection. After shooting he walked to the table and pulled out a small grenade.

He said, "Finally, on the side arms we have the M9 high-explosive dual-purpose grenade. Perfect for taking down large numbers of infantry and lightly armored vehicles, and with a radius of sixteen feet, this thing is bound to get the job done."

Boomstick pulled the pin and threw the grenade into the center of the room. He ducked down and covered his ears as the grenade exploded. The dummy that was closest to it had its legs blown off, while others were blown away and knocked down with shrapnel.

Franky whistled and said, "Dang. Maybe I could add those explosive armor piercers to my monster shells or my beans left. Maybe I can add the grenades to my weapons left or the cannons for the Sunny."

Boomsitck said, "And that's only his side arms. He's got even more tools of death."

The gun lover walked over to the second table and pulled off the tarp.

Standard Firearms

MA5C Assault Rifle

-Ammo: 7.62 mm armor piercing full metal jacket

-Rate of Fire: 650 RPM

BR55HB SR Battle Rifle

-Ammo: 9.5 mm

-Range: 3100 ft

M90 Shotgun

-Type: Pump

-Spread: 15 Pellets

-Ammo: Soellkraft 8-Gauge Shells

Boomstick said, "The Chief's main fire arms include the MA5C Assault Rifle, with full metal jacket armor piercing rounds, and a rate of 650 per minute."

Boomstick set that down, and said, He also has the BR555 Heavy Battle Service Rifle, which can switch between single shot, a three-round burst, and a fully automatic, all at a range of 3,100 feet. Personally, I think this one might be John's personal favorite."

Boomstick chuckled as he placed the battle rifle down, and picked up a shotgun saying, "But one of my favorites of his arsenal is the M90 Close Assault Weapon Shotgun. This the shells in this baby pack fifteen pellets for maximum carnage. To be specific, this pump action death dealer packs soellkraft shells, which is something I really would like to get my hands on."

Wiz appeared on the screen and said, "Actually Soellkraft shells are so dangerous that they are banned to the point of near extinction."

Franky hummed in thought as he said, "I wonder if we could mix that soellkraft shell with a grapeshot? Those rifles look like they can do some damage too."

Usopp said, "And with those piercing rounds are going to have a huge effect on the fight, especially if that guy's armor isn't particularly thick, or if he's not that durable."

Chopper shuddered and said, "At least they didn't have those back on drum island."

Heavy Weaponry

M41 Rocket Launcher

-Ammo: 102 HEAT Charge Rockets

-Scope: 2x

SRS990-S2 AM Sniper Rifle

-Ammo: 14.5 mm Fin-Stabilized

-Range: 7545.9 ft

-Night-Vision Mode

M6 Spartan Laser

-Shot Limit: 5

-John-117's Most Powerful Weapon

Boomstick said, "But even that' snot enough killing power for the master chief."

Franky said, "Dang. This guy has got more weapons than I do."

Boomstick went to a third table and pulled off the tarp saying, "The chief also wields the M41, a surface-to-surface rocket, medium anti-vehicle/assault weapon. This thing is like a mix of a bazooka and a double-barrel shotgun, holding two anti-tank rockets at once. It doesn't have a very high rate of fire, but damn does it do a lot of damage."

The wall opened, revealing a large tank sitting a good distance away. Boomstick aimed the weapon and fired both rockets. The tank exploded into a massive explosion of fire and shrapnel.

"I love my job," Boomsitck said, before clearing his throat, and saying, "And if the chief wants to relax and murder aliens, he sits back with the 99C-Series 2 Anti-Material Sniper Rifle. This baby was made to kill from long distance. It comes equipped with a night vision scope, for late night murder sessions, and can fire special armor-piercing rounds that can penetrate tank armor."

To demonstrate, Boomstick took a position and aimed a piece of the tank that miraculously survived the explosion of the two rockets. He fired a shot at it. The camera then moved in and showed a large hole in it.

"Damn," Nami said, "I don't think even Kuma could take a bullet like that."

Robin said, "A headshot from that and he'd be torn in two."

Boomstick said, "But Chief's killer app is the M6 Grindell/Galilean nonlinear rifle. More commonly known as the Spartan laser. This battery powered rifle may take a few minutes to charge, but like a giant laser pointer, whatever it points at, is pointed right into oblivion!"

Boomstick then turned around and fired a bright red beam which smashed into a wall and burned a hole right through it.

"Uh…" he said, seeing the damage, "that was there when I got here."

"I have got to figure out how to make lasers!" Franky said, "On my honor as a shipwright, inventor, and on the grave of my master Tom, I swear to do this!"

Luffy declared, "Awesome! Lasers!"

Everyone rolled their eyes.

Boomstick declared, "But that's still not enough killing power for the MC. In the covenant, there was a bit of a schism which caused the backbone of their military, the Sangheili, to desert the covenant after a bunch of big sasquatch men took over. As a result, they traded some of their weaponry to the UNSC, and allowing Chief to get access to some of my favorite weapons in the series."

"Alien weapons!" Franky yelled, "Everyone be quiet."

Sangheili Weaponry

Type-25 Plasma Pistol

-100 battery units

Type-25 Plasma Rifle

-100 battery units

Type-51 Carbine

-18 8.7 mm radioactive caseless rounds

Type-1 Plasma Grenade

-Kill Radius: 13 ft

-Sticks to Targets

Type-1 Energy Sword

-Length: 4.15 ft

-Weight: 5.2 lbs

Boomstick said, "With the new alien friends, the chief got the Type Directed Energy Pistol and Rifle. Which fires batteries of plasma blasts, and the Type 5 carbine, which can shoot with powerful blasts of radiation."

Boomstick held up and displayed each weapon.

He smiled as he reached down to pick up two devices saying, "My personal favorites, however, are the Type 1 Plasma Grenade, and the Energy Sword. This little ball of doom sticks to targets and has a killing radius of 13 feet of pure plasma death. As for the blade, this thing was made for cutting through anything."

Wiz appeared on the screen and said, "Given that it is similar to a lightsaber in that it uses plasma, it is likely that this blade is easily capable of cutting through steel."

"Another lightsaber," Zoro said, "Nice."

Sanji said, "Of course, you would be interested in a sword."

Zoro said, "This coming from the guy who would be more interested if these guys have boobs."

Sanji yelled, "I am a man, of course I am going to be interested in those. What kind of man isn't."

The screen switched back to Wiz who said, "On top of his weaponry, the Master Chief has a few pieces of special equipment to use in combat."

Special Equipment

Overshield

Active Camouflage

Radar Jammer

Regenerator

Deployable Cover

Power Drain

Bubble Shield

The scientist explained, "His overshield and regenerator can super charge and recharge his shield respective, his active camo bend light around him, making him invisible, his radar jammer scrambles motion detectors, he can create frontal barriers with the deployable cover, his power drain acts as an EMP to short out circuitry, and the bubble shield protects the chief on all sides from enemy projectiles."

Boomstick entered the room and said, "But, for some reason, enemies and vehicles can walk through it just fine…can't see the logic in that."

Wiz said, "Neither do I."

Franky stopped writing and said, "They can't all be perfect. Maybe I can figure out how that works and have only our ship, or vehicles, go through it."

Boomstick said, "With training, armor, equipment, and weapons in hand the chief has done some awesome things."

Feats

Ran over 55 miles an hour

Can lift over 1,700 pounds (in armor)

Dodged a point-blank shot

Knocked a man 8 meters away

Survived a fall from orbit

Defeated a covenant armada single handedly

Wiz said, "He's dodged point blank, lifted over a thousand pounds, and knocked a fully-grown man eight meters away, and that was without the armor."

Boomstick said, "He's also taken down an entire armada on his own, and fell from earth's atmosphere while in the armor, and got up a few minutes later kicking alien ass. Why? Because he can."

"Holy crap," Franky said, the paper and pencil slipping from his fingers, "This guy did all that, and survived so much. Am I the only one glad that they don't have super soldiers int eh marines."

Sanji said, "I'll say. This guy is tough. Given the name Spartan is fitting, and he lives up to the legacy."

Robin thought, 'I'll have to do some research. I wonder if our world has any Spartans, or someone similar, in their history.'

Wiz said, "However, John is not without his weaknesses. He still has limits on how much damage he can take, and he can over exert himself if he's not careful. Plus, a smart enemy can take advantage of his lack of energy shields."

Boomstick said, "But the real weakness is that he can only carry two or three weapons at a time, but he seems to have incredible luck, finding more weapons on the ground than you can find change on a sidewalk. When this guy retires, get him to space Vegas! He'll clean the place out."

Wiz said, "If you have plans for destroying the Earth. You have to go through him first."

They show a clip of the chief flying in a ship.

"Master Chief, you mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?"

The chief answered, "Sir, finishing this fight."

Franky said, "Now that is a man's voice. He sounds absolutely awesome!"

Brook nodded and said, "The voice sounds incredibly pleasing to my ears. Not that I have ears. They remind me of an old war veteran I met while on my travels with the Rumbar Pirates."

Chopper, Luffy, and Usopp were in awe the man's strength and power, both in and out of the suit.

The rest all held respect for the man who fought against the odds, on multiple occasions, and seemed to come out on top.

The doors closed and reopened.

Boomstick declared, "One of the first ever first-person bad asses and one of my favorites heroes, is the one, the only, Doom Guy. Though, he got a lot of other names through his long career of murdering demons."

"Demons?" everyone asked, shocked.

Boomstick said, "Yes, I said demons. I suggest you all strap in because this origin story is a doozey."

Everyone wondered what kind of madness lead to this.

Wiz said, "In the distant future, mankind has evolved through technology, extending to the stars and colonizing the planet Mars However, there was a massive power crisis, that would cause a lot of problems later. It was that this time that, Flynn Taggart's military career was changed forever, after disobeying his commanding officer…and beating him to death."

"Okay, I understand wanting to go against authority, given that we're pirates," Zoro said, "But that might have been a little extreme just to disobey an order."

Isom said, "Wait for it."

Boomstick said, "Given that Flynn was ordered to shoot upon civilians, something that not respectable soldier would do, the bastard probably deserved those knuckles sandwiches of insubordination."

"And now it seems acceptable," Zoro said.

Chopper said, "I think his boss might have been corrupt."

Nami said, "I agree with you on that, little buddy.

Wiz said, "After that, Flynn was sent to the Phobos, one of the twin moons of the planet Mars. However, things quickly went downhill, as it turns out there is a magical doorway to hell on it, and they were using it to harness the, Argent Energy as they dubbed it, to power everything."

"Wait…they find a giant door into hell…and they use it to power their stuff?" Usopp asked, before yelling "WHO IS THE IDIOT WHO CAME UP WITH THAT?!"

Chopper yelled, "That is ridiculous if you find a gate to hell you leave it alone…or block it off or something other than use it."

Boomstick said, "Surprise, surprise, things went wrong, hell was unleashing, and Flynn stepped in to start kicking ass."

Background

-Height: 6'2"

-Weight: 230 lbs.

-U.S. Space Marine Captain

-Prefers a Run-&-Gun Strategy

-Defeated Hell 6 times (Counting Doom 2016)

-Hell's Personal Boogieman.

Wiz said, "He's fought against he forces of hell not once, not twice, but six times, at least. He's proven to be incredibly powerful and has even travelled through time on certain occasions to do it. It was during one of these occasions he wound up being thrown centuries into the past."

"Okay…what?" Sanji said, "He got sent back in time."

Isom said, "Yeah, that happens a lot. Things with the Doom Guy get a little…confusing."

Chopper said, "Oh boy."

Boomstick said, "Yeah, this is where it gets crazy. He wound fighting through hell for who knows how long, wound up getting sealed away in a gigantic stone coffin, and then was released back in the modern day, just as badass now as he was back then."

Wiz said, "And he's got the armor to show for it. In the trailer for Doom Eternal, Flynn, now dubbed the Slayer-"

Boomstick interrupted, "Oh, I'm calling him that now."

Wiz continued, "is shown wearing a powerful suit of armor, the Praetor Suit, given to him by a being called, the Wretch. Given his knowledge of demon technology, it seems that they mixed his old mega armor and the Praetor suit. Giving him what me and Boomstick have dubbed, the Mega Praetor Suit."

Mega Praetor

AI Vega

Nearly Impervious

Non-rechargeable Energy Shield

Left-arm gauntlet

Left shoulder cannon

-flame thrower

-incendiary projectiles

Delta V Jump Boots

Head-Up Display

Warp Technology Backpack.

Wiz said, "This new suit combines good things about the Praetor suit and the Mega Armor. However, from what we can tell, all that they managed to gain from the Praetor suit was the ability to interface with demon tech. The helmet has a Head-Up display and radar to help the Marine find his way through, as well as the AI known as Vega, but this program is mainly to help the big guy keep himself from getting lost and keeping him on track of his objectives."

"He has an AI too," Franky said, "But it doesn't seem like he's as good as Cortana."

Usopp said, "It looks like his armor might be able to go toe to toe with the Chief's armor."

Brook said, "I wonder what else he can do."

Boomstick said, "Yeah, that thing is mainly useless. What isn't useless is the energy shield he has for extra defense, but unlike another super soldier it doesn't recharge, and the big guy has to find batteries to keep his shield up."

Luffy said, "Well that seems stupid. He needs to find his own shields."

Franky rubbed his chin and said, "That's going to be a disadvantage."

Boomstick said, "But for extra offense he's got a gauntlet blade for close up kills, and a shoulder cannon ripped straight out of Predator that acts as a flame thrower and fire incendiary projectiles. He also has the Delta boots with allow him to perform an extra jump in the air."

Sanji said, "So he can use something similar to CP9 with his suit."

Usopp said, "But only a double jump. It sounds like he can only use it once."

Luffy said, "Lame."

Wiz said, "Speaking of which, Flynn's suit also comes with a special backpack that uses experimental warp technology. This allows him to hold as many devices objects, items, and weapons as necessary. And he has a lot of guns."

"Whoa, he can carry everything he needs all at once?" Usopp asked, "Wish we had that in Alabasta, we would have had so much water, not even Luffy could have drank it all."

Luffy turned to his fellow childish trio member and declared, "Challenge accepted."

Chopper asked, "When did he give you a challenge?"

Boomstick let out another laugh as he ran out of the room.

The scene immediately switched to the armor, where Boomstick stood amongst the weapons.

"Slayer clearly has the inferior suit," Franky said, "Let's see what else this guy brings to the table."

Brook said, "I'm so excited my bones are chattering. Not that it takes much to do that."

Boomstick declared, "In combat, the old slayer has the tools necessary for demon murder."

Arsenal

Fists

UAC Pistol

-directed energy beam

-infinite ammunition.

-weak but good to conserve ammunition

-Charged Shot Modificiation

Boomstick picked up a high-tech pistol and said, "His first weapon is the UAC EMG Sidearm, or just a pistol. This little number fires energy bolts. While it is probably the weakest of the weapons in Slayer's arsenal, it makes up for it by never running out of ammo, and if you want to you can charge up a powerful shot."

Boomstick demonstrated by firing a few blasts at the dummies, and then charging up the shot for a powerful blast, which obliterated a dummy's head.

Usopp said, "It's weak, but it won't stop. I think that might be better used if Flynn wants to conserve ammunition, or if he's going up against a bunch of weak enemies."

Franky said, "I swear I am going to learn how to make lasers."

Chainsaw

-gas powered

-quick kills

Boomstick said, "If things get tight, he can pull out his trusty chainsaw. This gas-powered beauty can cut through any demon with a single swing. Just imagine seeing this thing, coming at you."

Boomstick charged at a dummy laughing and doing a poor imitation of Leatherface, before carving into him saying, "No not the chainsaw, yes the chainsaw hahahahahahahah!"

Everyone looked a little creeped out at what Boomstick was doing.

Boomstick paused before glancing at the camera and saying, "But this thing only lasts as long as there's gas in the tank."

Delta-12 Chaingun

-15mm tungsten rounds

-endless if there is ammunition.

-gatling rotator modification

-mobile turret modification

Boomstick said, "If he's outnumbered, he can mow down enemies in seconds with the Delta-12 Chaingun. This beauty can fire an endless stream of 15mm tungsten rounds, so long as this beauty has ammunition. And thanks to a mod to the rotator it can fire immediately. He can even turn this monster into a mobile turret, to fire even faster, but he has to stay still with it for his own safety."

Chopper said, "Oh man, this guy sounds like he can tear through the marines with all these weapons."

Usopp said, "Don't forget, the chief has some high-tech stuff. Some of these don't look that super advanced other than the ammunition…I wonder where I can get some tungsten."

DS-117 Shotgun

-pump action

-10 pellets per shell

-Charged Burst modification

-Explosive Shot modification

Boomstick said, "Moving on, he's also got a pair of deadly boomsticks. The first being the DS-117, also known as the Combat Shotgun. This pump action demon killer fires 10 pellets per shell. And with the modifications he's made, he can fire a burst of three shots, or an arcing explosive round."

Super Shotgun

-double barrel, sawn off

-16 pellets per shell

-modifications – faster reload, uranium coating, 2 shots before reloading

-Meat Hook

Boomstick said, "It goes right next to its brother the super shotgun, a sawn off, double barrel monster with 16 uranium coated pellets per shell, a spread so wide he doesn't even need to aim. This baby can penetrate through people, and other mods allow it to reload faster and needs to be shot twice before reloading. He even added the meat hook, a special grappling cable that attaches to people and targets to pull him in."

Boostick patted his prosthetic shotgun leg and said, "Man I love this thing. Got to figure out how to get the meat hook though."

Zoro said, "Oh, I think he mentioned having a super shotgun or his leg. I thought he was joking."

Chopper asked, "How does he ever get that thing to work? I'm no gun expert, but I don't think that the gun should work after that."

Zoro simply nodded. He remembered getting hit by a shotgun-like blast during his fight with Arlong. He didn't want to know what it felt like to get hit by one of those."

Gauss Cannon

-metal spikes thrown by magnetic chamber

-instantly kills most

-precision bolt and siege mode mods

Ballista

-harpoon style blast

-explosive after charge

Plasma Rifle

-plasma blasts

-three shot set

Plasma Gun

-Concentrated stream of plasma.

-Stun Bomb and Heat Blast mods

Missile Launcher

-50 Rockets

-strong blast radius

-Remote Detonation and Lock-On Burst mods

Boomstick said, "He can also take down opponents with the gauss cannon. This weapon fires metal rods from a magnetized barrel. While this puppy can instantly kill someone, it requires extreme accuracy. Thankfully, the precision bolt mod allows Flynn to aim much better, and with the siege mode mod he can fire beams that can penetrate targets, but he can't move while he uses it. Thankfully, he's got it's cousin the Ballista which can fire harpoons of death that explode after he charges them."

"Damn," Usopp said, "I don't think even Luffy wouldn't be able to walk away from."

Boomstick set down the guns and said, "He also has a plasma Rifle that can cause enemies to explode like stun bombs, a plasma gun that can fire stun blasts and superheated beams, and a rocket launcher that holds up to fifty rockets, which can be remoted dated and fire burst of rockets after locking on to a target. Okay, who designed these things where can I meet him."

Heavy Assault Rifle

-.50 caliber FMJ Rounds

-Tactical Scope and Micro Missiles

Heavy Cannon

-Micro missile style projectiles

-tactical scope attachment

Boomstick said, "He also weilds the Heavy assault rifle which fires .50 caliber FMJ rounds. This beauty comes with a tactical scope for increased accuracy, and a packet of micro missiles that he can fire from the side. And if he wants to fire missiles like crazy, he can use the heavy cannon, which can shoot micro missiles all day long."

Franky said, "Maybe I should consider doing mods like this to my arms. Make them attachable, but carrying everything might be a pain since I don't have the magic backpack…hmm."

Franky's imagination was going wild as he thought through all this.

BFG9K Big Fucking Gun 9000

-Plasma Blasts

-Chief's most powerful weapon

-can be charged

-obliterates everything

Crucible

Boomstick said, "If he wants to clear out the room fast. He busts out his biggest weapon. It's the king of cannons, the doomdsday boomstick that lays all to waste. It is, the big fucking gun nine thousand!"

The gun lover hauled up the weapon and said, "This massive weapon fires huge blasts of chargeable plasma. And when these things explode, the splash damage makes sure that nobody is getting away unscathed. This thing can even kill the cyber demon in two or three shots!"

Boomstick aimed the powerful weapon yelling, "Damn I love this job."

He fired a blast which resulted in a huge explosion that threw everything backwards, leaving a nicely sized crater in the ground.

The gun lover looked at the carnage and said, "Well, that's going to be a bitch to clean up."

Franky was openly drooling at the sight of the destruction, and his pencil he had writnignw ith had snapped at his point.

"Awesome," the childish trio said at the same time.

Boomstick set down the weapon and said, "But even Flynn needs to get up close and personal. He can use his bare fists, the chainsaw we mentioned earlier, and the crucible a lightsaber from hell. Perfect for close range combat against demons."

Boomstick suddenly looked confused and asked, "Hey, Wiz, wasn't there another weapon?"

Wiz appeared on the screen and answered, "Well, the unmaker only works on beings of hell, so it wouldn't help him in this situation."

Boomstick nodded and said, "Yeah good point. Though, I don't think it matters when you've got a backpack full of stuff made to kill things. Give me the BFG any day."

"I got to agree with that,"

The screen moved back to Wiz who said, "Moving on, I have to admit that calling Flynn a super soldier would be a bit of a stretch. The main reason he's considered super is because of his various power ups."

Power-Ups

Berserk

Megasphere

Radiation Shield

Light Amplification Visor

Partial Invisibility

Invulnerability

Wiz explained, "The berserker power up increases his strength. The megasphere heals him and restores his armor to 100%. The radiation shield protects him from hazardous materials. The light amplification visor lets him see in the dark, and the partial invisibility and invulnerability power ups do exactly what you think they do."

"So he's not a true super soldier," Zoro said, "Kind of sounds like we're comparing a dog to a wolf here."

Usopp said, "Hey, remember what they say about underdogs."

Special Equipment

Frag Grenade

Siphon Grenade

Hologram

Wiz said, "He also has some special equipment like a frag grenade, a siphon grenade which drains health to heal him, and a hologram to distract enemies."

Nami rubbed her chin and said, "Those could be useful if he's feeling injured and needs some healing up. I suddenly feel like I've been ripped off with his hologram and my Mirage tempo."

Sanji yelled, "How dare you rip off Nami-swan, bastard!"

Boomstick returned from the armory and said, "With all these weapons he sounds unstoppable, but you'd be wrong."

Wiz said, "Yeah. The weapons that Flynn has, while powerful, have limits. As does he, with his armor and body. Plus, While he has shown to be able to strike with precision, taking dwon enemies quickly, he just seems to run, gun, rip, and tear through his enemies."

Boomstick said, "It's more fun that way. With no care for anything around him, the strength to crush a skull to splatter without armor, and a backpack full of murder machines, Flynn has more than earned the fear of hell and title of Doom slayer."

They show a clip of Flynn knocking a monster on his ass, and then smashing his head to pieces with the butt of his gun.

"Whoa, that was a little brutal," Chopper said.

Isom said, "He's like that in all his games, so get used to it."

With that, everyone began debating on who would win the fight.

In the end, Luffy, Zoro, Brook, Franky, and Robin all thought that Flynn Taggart's more powerful weaponry would do the job. There rest through the chief's weapons and equipment would bring him victory.

Wiz said, "The combatants are set, the weapons are fully charged, and the armor is sealed up and ready. It's time for a super soldier smack down."

Boomstick, holding a bucket of popcorn, yelled, "Enough with the talking already. Get to the death battle!"

The doors closed and reopened, revealing a base, more specifically the lab near the gates of hell.

"Is that Mars?" Chopper asked, earning a nod from Isom.

"It looks scary," he said.

Isom said, "That's because it's infected by hell. The Mars in my world is actually quite the vacation hotspot."

To prove it, he paused the video and displayed a holographic post card from Mars, showing a bright red landscape with a bright sky, and a perfect view of earth, which resembled a moon.

The camera panned up to reveal a large dropship standing above the planet and the base. The ship beeped as a female voice was heard.

"Chief. We've arrived at the unknown base. Preparing to drop in 5…4…3…2…1…here we go caveman."

"Is that Cortana?" Nami asked, "I love her voice."

Sanji muttered, "Lucky bastard, getting to hear that lovely voice in his ear."

The ship suddenly dropped a massive spike which fell fast. It broke through the atmosphere, plummeting fast. It crashed down the middle of a field, kicking up bright red dust. The spike opened revealing a landing pad, and out stepped John 117, the gold visor reflecting the environment, a magnum on his left, and a battle rifle on his back.

"Wow, now that looks cool," Franky said, regarding the Chief's appearance.

Isom said, 'I wonder how he'll react to some of the guys from MGS.'

John said, "Cortana, I've arrived. Nobody bother to tell me what the problem was before I got here. What is the mission?"

Cortana said, "Man, the guys up there are frazzled. A few days ago, a group of ODSTs found this old base. Apparently, it was leftover from our earlier colonizing days. They went to examine it, bringing with them a large weapons cache, just in case, but they went silent a few hours later. We haven't heard anything back from them so far. I'm marking their last known location on your map."

"What's an ODST?" Usopp asked in confusion.

Isom answered, "Orbital Drop Shock Trooper. Marines that are almost on par, crazy with the Spartans. Their usual method of entry is to be dropped from orbit, and landing on sight. Some of the mare crippled or killed when they do so."

Brook's teeth chattered as he said, "That's insane. Why would they do that?"

Isom said, "Some people will die for what they believe or fight for. It also goes with their motto. Jumping feet first into hell."

Everyone looked at the screen.

John walked through the red dirt until he came upon the base. The soldier found the bodies of the ODSTs, ripped to pieces or blown apart, as well as the bullet filled bodies of several other creatures, he didn't recognize.

He made his way inside, and eventually found the cache. Apparently, someone had tried to take a chainsaw to it and open it up.

"Someone didn't have the codes to get in," Cortana said, "I'll get to it."

John sat back and let Cortana do her work, however, as he did, he noticed his motion sensors picking up someone entering the room. Slowly, and subtly, he demagnetized the plate on his leg, releasing his magnum. As soon as the cache beeped, indicating it was open, he spun around and fired. The figure, now revealed to be Flynn Taggart, rolled to the side to avoid the bullets. Flynn launched forward, throwing a punch that smashed into the Chief's energy shield. John performed a spartan kick that connected with his own shield, knocking him away.

John aimed his magnum at the unknown. Flynn aimed his pistol at the unknown. Both examining the unknown. Flynn glanced at the cache behind John and then aimed right back at him. John's eyes noticed.

"I'm only giving you one chance," John said, "Lay down your weapons and surrender peacefully. If you resist, I will use lethal force."

"If we know anything about this guy," Usopp said, "I don't think he's going to back down that easily."

Zoro said, "It's obvious he wants what's in the weapons cache. He could do some serious damage with that stuff."

Flynn's response was to activate the charged shot for his pistol.

John said, "Your choice."

FIGHT!

Flynn fired only for the chief's shield to take the brunt of the blast while John charged in while shooting.

Flynn's shield took the damage and allowed Chief to get close. The two grappled for a moment, their guns opposite from each other, to John's shock, the man seemed to match him in strength, something that shocked Cortana.

Flynn maneuvered his hands so that his gun was facing the Chief's visor. John ducked as the weapon shot and brought his knee up into the doom slayer's stomach. The blow didn't even seem to phase him. He gripped John's shoulder and then threw him across the room. Flynn put away his pistol, deciding to save the guns for later, and charged forward. The two grappled and stood their ground.

"Go chief!" Luffy yelled out.

"Rattle his bones!" Brook called out.

As the two struggled, John called on his strength, pulling Flynn off balance, he grabbed him by his shoulder and threw him away. John quickly pulled the battle rifle from his back and fired. Flynn rolled to the side to avoid the bullets, though several struck his shield, barely doing anything, before taking out his Heavy Assault Rifle. He began unloading bullets and fired the rockets from his mod.

"That settles it, I am getting a miniature rocket launcher," Franky declared.

The rockets struck John's shield, but it barely held. The bullets then shattered the master chief's shield.

"His shield's down," Chopper yelled out.

Zoro said, "Cut him down chief!"

Flynn immediately replaced his weapon with the Super Shotgun, using the meat hook to get in close.

John was struck in the head, kneed in the stomach, and then knocked backwards by a powerful shot to the jaw, John now aware of damage to his armor, indicating how strong this guy was. Thinking quickly, John threw a drainer to the ground, the device drained the shields of the soldier. Flynn looked shocked, but quickly regained his composure.

"I should try something like that with my chain hand," Franky said, putting down a tactic like that for later, "And that drainer looks pretty awesome so far."

Flynn prepared to fire another set of rockets from his rifle, but John was a touch faster, shooting him in the shoulder, throwing off his aim, and then once in the leg. This also cause John to realize that this soldier's shield wouldn't regenerate as it did with his armor, but it could take a lot more damage. John then got up and grabbed the Spartan Laser from the cache and spun around as it charged.

"So the chief's taking advantage of the cache and knowns of Flynn's weaknesses," Sanji said, taking a drag on his cigarette

Franky said, "The chief's got this."

"Lasers!" the childish trio yelled.

He fired a blast only for Flynn to roll to the side. He didn't completely dodge as he felt the beam graze his shoulder and melt the opposite wall. Using the meat hook on the super shotgun, the doom slayer pulled himself away from the super soldier and landed behind some computers.

He grimaced from his wounds but fought through the pain. He glanced back at his opponent and put away the super shotgun. He pulled out the plasma gun and peaked over the barrier opening fire. John rolled to the side firing another blast from the Spartan Laser, the blast struck the computer's melting them.

Flynn rolled out from behind the computers and fired a stun blast, which connected to the shield. With barely any hesitation, Flynn launched a siphon grenade which connected and exploded. The blast siphoned off energy from the chief's shields and restored his own, as well as healing some of his injuries.

"Looks like Flynn is smarter than we thought," Nami said, "stunning him and then using the grenade to drain chief's shield and heal was pretty good thinking."

Zoro answered, "Don't forget, his shield recharges. He just needs to avoid getting shot."

Reaching into his bag, he pulled out a red ball and crushed it, with a roar of rage he charged forward and attacked the chief. He tackled the armored man, knocking him to the ground and began pummeling him into the ground. His fists leaving dents in the chief's armor, while on the outside, it didn't see like much, the chief could actually feel his ribs cracking, showing just how much that power up worked.

John struggled, but eventually brought a knee up which smashed into Flynn's crotch, again not doing anything. However, John took advantage of Flynn's exposed flesh. Grabbing a punch just as it connected, John smashed his fist with all his strength into Flynn's elbow over extending the limb. The slayer bit back a scream of pain, as he was able to feel that. Angry as hell, Flynn grabbed the chief hauled all of him into the air and threw him across the room.

"Oh boy," Usopp said, "There goes the cache."

Chopper said, "Don't worry. The chief has his luck."

Zoro said, "That was the berserker power up he used right. I almost forgot about those."

The chief looked up and dropped a pin from his hand. Flynn looked down to see a frag grenade at his feet. The bomb went off, knocking the soldier away.

"Way to think ahead," Usopp said tapping his chin, "Hey, Isom do you think you can get us some nonlethal grenades I can use. Maybe something like that for me, Nami, and Chopper in case we need to run away?"

Isom said, "I can think about it."

John groaned as he stood up. He took some mental inventory and charged forward. Flynn recovered from the blast quickly, and pulled out his chain gun, switching it to turret mode. John quickly threw down some deployable cover, blocking the swarm of bullets. In return, John grabbed the nearest weapon off the floor, his rocket launcher, and fired two missiles. The missiles created a smoke screen, just perfect for John to throw another drainer right at Flynn's feet.

Nami smiled at the familiar grenade and said, "Turnabout is fair play."

The device went off, draining the shields of the slayer. John charged forward unleashing the last few bullets from his pistol on the man. The soldier tanked the bullets as he thought quickly as he could.

Seeing the super soldier coming, Flynn pulled out his rocket launcher and was ready to blow the chief away, however, John pulled out the Spartan laser again, fully charged, and fired. The blast hit the weapon and the rockets inside began to super heat.

"Explosions!" the childish trio yelled.

Franky rubbed his chin and said, "Maybe I can pull something like that. Maybe not a big destructive cannon, but something to short out or melt weaponry before it can fire."

Thinking quickly, the doom slayer threw the weapon across the room just as the rockets exploded, forming a huge hole in the wall.

As the rockets exploded, John grabbed another weapon off the ground, a sniper rifle, spun around and aimed right at Flynn's helmet, intent on blowing his brains out. However, Flynn pulled out the invincibility power up and became invincible.

To John's shock the sniper rifle's bullets simply bounced off his body.

"Oh, now that is just cheating," Zoro said.

Sanji said, "Why because your guy can't even hurt this one?"

The green-haired samurai yelled, "Can it you bloody-nosed cook!"

Flynn pulled out the BFG and prepared to fire the large weapon. However, John thought quickly and fired a bullet right into the charging weapon. John threw down the bubble shield and the shield amplifier, which affected him and Flynn who was in distance. Flynn threw the weapon away, which exploded in massive blast of plasma that threw both men off their feet and scattering the weapons discarded on the floor.

"More explosions!" the childish trio yelled out again.

Flynn got up, feeling some pain, despite his invincibility. He glared at John. He loved that gun. He charged forward with the intent of tearing him in half.

As he got close, Flynn activated his shoulder cannon, unleashing a blast stream of fire. John rolled to avoid the blast but was thrown back when Flynn dropped an incendiary projectile at his feet. Flynn then jumped upwards using the delta boots and dropped down with his blade extended. John caught his arm, just as it came close, puncturing through the visor of his helmet. John threw another punch to the throat, but Flynn caught it. The two grappled, and Flynn brought out his shoulder cannon again, ready to shoot a stream of flame, right at the super soldier.

Unfortunately, the invincibility wore off at this point, and John responded with a punch to the throat, and an uppercut, which knocked Flynn upwards and causing him to misfire. John grabbed the blade on Flynn's arm and ripped it off, and stabbing the slayer in the exposed upper arm, drawing blood and causing him to shout in pain. John then reached for a nearby discarded weapon, a plasma pistol and fired a shot, that smashed through the side of the man's head, tearing off a portion of his helmet.

"Yeah!" the supporter of the chief yelled.

John kept up the barrage of powerful punches, before grabbing a plasma grenade from the ground, attaching it to the soldier backpack, and then lifted him into the air and threw him through the hole made in the wall. Moments later, a loud explosion and a flash of light came from the hole.

"Alright!" the chief's team yelled as they saw the bright flash.

John took a moment to breath and said, "Cortana. Who was that?"

Cortana, who had seen through the feed of the suits cameras said, "I don't know. His armor didn't match anything on file, and the old codes from the systems here didn't last. That guy was tough enough to put you through your paces John. A little longer and he might have won.

John's visible blue eye narrowed as he said, "I know. I shot the guy with a plasma weapon, and he didn't even flinch. Not even the Mjolnir can stand up to that, at least through repeated exposure."

Cortana said, "Yeah, and that bag. The guy was a regular Houdini…uh oh."

The cheering stopped.

"Don't yell me he survived that," Franky said, "I thought his invincibility wore off, and without his shields, I don't' think he could survive that plasma grenade, especially not pointblank."

John said, "What?"

Cortana answered, "I'm picking up signs of life down there. I think he's still alive."

John grimaced. He checked the Spartan laser and saw he had three more charges left. He glanced around. He found a clip to restock the ammo for his pistol and the plasma sword.

"I'm going down there."

Robin said, "The final confrontation begins."

With that John made his way to the portal and jumped down.

John landed on a catwalk and found the area where the grenade had gone off. He looked around and saw no one. The motion sensors and his armor then picked up some slight movement. He spun around and fired his pistol, aiming for the helmet, only for it to go right through, revealing the figure he shot to be a hologram. He was then grabbed by the neck and pulled back before getting punched in the jaw.

Nami said, "Nice set up. The guy's smarter than he looks."

Flynn reappeared, his temporary invisibility power up having lost power, and revealing that his backpack was gone, most likely having been ditched before the plasma grenade blew. He charged forward, chainsaw in hand, the device roaring to life. John pulled out the plasma sword and cut through the tool with ease. Flynn spun around and prepared to fire the cannon again, only for John to pull out his pistol and shoot, destroying the cannon before it could fire.

Zoro grinned as it seemed this had been brought down to a space sword fight."

John charged forward and prepared to cut off Flynn's head, only for the slayer to activate the crucible. The two met int eh middle with a bright flash of blue and red. The two blades clashed as they tried to overcome one another. John quickly over came him, proving to be stronger. Flynn punched John in the stomach, and then knocked him away with a powerful shot to the face. However, John rolled with the punch, pulled Flynn off balance and then punched him in the elbow, breaking the joint. Flynn staggered, but recovered and charged forward.

John reacted, quickly ducking under the charging marine, and then swung his plasma sword at his neck, slicing off his head.

KO!

John leaned up against a wall exhausted, his suit working to repair his injuries and said, "Cortana...I need a pick up."

The AI answered, "You got it caveman."

Usopp said, "That might have been a little much."

Isom answered, "Not really. There was this one guy back home, me and my team fought. It took so much time and ammunition to take him down. One of my guys double tapped him, what we just saw, and then unloaded an entire clip into his head, just to be sure."

The doors closed and reopened.

They show a clip of John giving his report, as scientists examined the remains of the Mega Praetor and the crucible. While that was happening, it shows hell with a bunch of demons are taking turns tea bagging the demon slayer.

Boomstick said, "Holy shit! Now that is what I call a gun fight. I've been waiting for one of those!"

Wiz said, "This was a pretty close fight. Both the chief and slayer were matched in both strength, firepower, and armor. ."

Boomstick said, "In terms of weaponry, both super soldiers knew their weapons in and out. With John's luck of finding just the weapon he needed and the the slayer's backpack of death, they both could find the right weapon for the situation. In terms of armor, both of their armor could withstand plasma blasts, and while the chief's shield regenerate, the slayer's shield could take a lot more damage."

"Yeah, now that I think about," Brook said, "This seemed like an unstoppable force versus an immovable object."

Wiz said, "Experience and training are also a factor. In terms of training, the chief's constant training in tactics since he was six years old, gave him much more training than the slayer. However, he easily matched that with experience for fighting for...supposedly eons."

Everyone whistled at that.

Luffy asked, "What's an eon?"

Isom answered, "Imagine the oldest person alive...that times a thousand."

The rubber captain said, "That is a long time."

Boomstick said, "In terms of equipment, John's drainer was capable of taking down the slayers energy shield, and as opposed to the Mjolnir, the mega praetor doesn't cover his whole body, so there were weak points that he could exploit. Plus, this equipment helped him counter and combat the Slayer."

Wiz nodded and said, "The slayer could have won when he got the berserker power up, but the power boost was only temporary, and John was capable of thinking ahead of a stronger enemy, as he has done so before with the brutes."

Boomstick said, "In the end, John's various methods of defense, and experience fighting stronger and more durable opponents, lead to him getting ahead of the slayer."

Wiz groaned and said, "The winner is the Master Chief."

"Oh, I have so many ideas right now my brain is burning," Franky said, "Usopp, Isom, I'm going to need your help with this."

Usopp said, "The great sniper Usopp will be happy to help you."

Isom said, "Same here, just without the great sniper part."

Suddenly, the episode began to rewind.

"Hey, what gives?" Franky asked, "Did someone touch something?"

Everyone looked at Luffy who was just as surprised as them.

Isom answered, "It's an alternate ending, they do these with certain episodes. They typically do these for fun, and for the very close matches. Watch."

The slayer and master chief locked swords. They met over and over again, but Flynn kicked John in the stomach, knocking him away and swinging hard and fast with the crucible, slicing away at his shield, when they were down charged forward with a tackle, pinning John to the wall, smashing it again the hard surface with enough force for a a loud crack to emanate from the chief's skull. Then he stabbed him through the head with his laser sword.

KO!

The doors closed and opened revealing an image of the slayer watching more ODST groups come down, while some imps feasted on the chief's corpse.

Boomstick said, "Holy shit! Now that is what I call a gun fight. I've been waiting for one of those!"

Wiz said, "This was a pretty close fight. Both the chief and slayer were matched in both strength, firepower, and armor. ."

Boomstick said, "In terms of weaponry, both super soldiers knew their weapons in and out. With John's luck of finding just the weapon he needed and the the slayer's backpack of death, they both could find the right weapon for the situation. In terms of armor, both of their armor could withstand plasma blasts, and while the chief's shield regenerate, the slayer's shield could take a lot more damage."

"Yeah, now that I think about," Brook said, "This seemed like an unstoppable force versus an immovable object."

Wiz said, "Experience and training are also a factor. In terms of training, the chief's constant training in tactics since he was six years old, gave him much more training than the slayer. However, he easily matched that with experience for fighting for...supposedly eons."

Boomstick said, "In the end, Flynn's superior armor shielding, strength, and huge as wealth of experience enable him to get a stab at victory."

Wiz gronaed and said, "The Winner is the Doom Slayer.

Next time on Death Battle…

The sound of someone walking was heard. The figure was revealed to a tiny green dinosaur. As he walked happy music start played.

"Awe, it's cute," Nami cooed, somewhat uncharacteristically.

Sanji joked, "Look out, Chopper we may have found a new pet."

Chopper said, "No, I'm considered a part of the crew and not a pet. We could use a pet, though."

Suddenly, a real dinosaur, a cyborg dinosaur, popped out of pipe with a vicious roar, and the little green one screamed in horror before running away, and then the big one gave chase.

Dueling dinos. Yoshi vs Riptor.

Everyone was silent and Zoro asked, "Does anyone else suddenly feel that this fight might be a bit one-sided."

Everyone nodded, though unseen to them, Isom almost laughed. Were they going to be in for a surprise.

Boomstick appeared on the screen. He was in the armory with a table and a series of dark display cases.

He crossed his arms and said, "With the battle between soldiers decided I've had a lot of weapons and gear on my mind. So much so, that I've decided to make not one, but two top 10 lists this week! In honor of the chief and the doom slayer, I'm making my favorite power armors and futuristic weapons. Are you ready? Then here we go."

"Oh, two top ten lists," Franky said, as he pulled out another piece of paper and pencil, the other having been worn down from all his writing.

Boomstick said, "We'll start with the weapons. The future will no doubt hold many death dealers and no doubt they will be awesome, and I've picked my personal favorites. Oh, and only one weapon per franchise. And no lightsabers because those are from a galaxy from long, long time ago, so here we go with Boomstick's Top 10 futuristic weapons."

Franky said, "Wait, why only one weapon per franchise?"

Isom explained, "Because top 10 weapons in a single franchise counts as it's own top 10."

Usopp said, "That makes sense."

Number 10: Energy Sword from Halo

Boomstick declared, "The match begins, and what do you do? Go straight for the energy sword!"

Boomstick picked the weapon up and activated it saying, "Halo 2 introduced this beautiful weapon melee combat became terrifying. It felt so good to cut down a group of enemies with this beauty."

He swung the weapon, cutting a dummy in half. His smile then turned into a scowl and said, "Until some asshole breaks your murder spree by shooting you with a missile point blank."

Nami said, "I take it that those swords became very annoying as time went on."

Isom said, "I can't tell you how many times a guy with an energy sword came up and sliced me open in a game. Though, I did get some satisfaction when I watched them get blown to pieces."

Number 9: Seeker from Singularity

Boomstick picked up the next weapon and said, "Guns and explosions are my personal favorite things, but when I get to see both in slow motion, I get hot blooded. The seeker is a special sniper rifle. By combining futuristic technology…and possible some voodoo of some kind, the shells of this long-distance death dealer can be steered right into the head, torso, or nut sack of anyone who is stupid enough to get in your way."

Franky stopped writing as Usopp stared with his eyes wide as he heard of steering bullets.

Franky said, "No way, there is no way that is real. You can't steer a bullet. How is that even possible?"

Boomstick aimed at some far-off targets and fired the bullet. The camera followed the bullets which began to move around, it moved to the dummy to the far right, and slammed right into its crotch, and then exploded in a blast of shrapnel.

Every male, and even Nami and Robin, winced at the sight. Contrary to belief, being kicked or hit in the crotch hurt women too.

Boomstick declared, "Hah. Deader than roadkill in my ground huggers."

Franky said, "Well…holy shit!"

Usopp said, "Franky, you are to make that as soon as possible."

Number 8: Chainsaw Lancer from Gears of War.

Boomstick said, "My grandpa used to tell me stories of his days in world war two. How he would hand his ammunition to his fellow soldiers and only used the bayonet at the end of his rifle. When Gears of War introduced the chainsaw lancer, I fell in love."

He picked up the weapon and revved up the chainsaw and ran at a dummy, cutting through it and sending fake blood everywhere.

He grinned at the screen and said, "If you ever hear this thing revving up near you, hold on to your butt, and hope you aren't the victim of this invasive kill."

A few shuddered at the sight of the chainsaw weapon, especially as they were reminded of Boomstick's excitement when he used it.

Number 7: Gravity Gun from Half-Life 2

Boomstick said, "Now you know that explosive barrels are everywhere I first-person shooters. But shooting them all the time can get boring…unless you are shooting explosive barrels."

Boomstick picked up the gun and said, "The zero-point energy manipulator, or the gravity gun for short, shoots a beam of "fuck you" to gravity, allowing you to pick up anything that can be launched."

The floor opened, and a few items rose up from the floor.

"This included Debris…"

He picked up some fallen rocks and launched them at a dummy, crushing it.

"Conveniently placed sharp things…"

He picked up a series of metal spikes and launched them at another dummy, impaling it.

"or a beer if you don't want to get off the couch."

Luffy said, "Eh, I can do that with my hands."

Franky was writing so fast that his pencil snapped. He growled in frustration as he quickly began to pull another one out of his shirt pocket and started writing again.

He picked up a beer bottle, popped the cap off and chugged it down. He let out a content sigh before belching.

Number 6: Line Gun from Dead Space.

Boomstick said, "There is a monster running at you full tilt. Do you run away? No!"

Chopper, Usopp, and Brook all thought, 'I'd probably run away.'

He picked up the gun and said, "You shoot a horizontal laser beam of death at them. The line gun shoots a horizontal beam capable of knocking whatever monster is charging at you down to size. And if they manage to get too close, you can use the proximity mine included to cut them down."

Boomstick walked forward and a dummy on wheels began to move forward towards him. The gun loving drunk fired a horizontal beam that cut the dummy at the waist. Then he launched the mine at the floor, which exploded, tearing the mechanical part to bits.

Franky rubbed his chin and said, "If it is anything like a grenade, I think I can make that pretty easy. Not sure about the line gun."

Isom said, "Fun fact, that gun was originally a mining tool."

Number 5: BFG from Doom

Boomstick declared, "My personal philosophy for anything is bigger is better. Big truck, weapons, and big fucking guns!"

He grabbed the BFG from the table and said, "While the super shotgun holds a special place in my heart, the BFG is the most iconic and fun weapon to use when whipping out the demon hordes of hell, and the most satisfying. One shot of this, and the room clears faster than my ex-wife after taco Tuesday."

Robin said, "Given how he seemed to live it during the show, we shouldn't be surprised that was on the list."

Sanji asked, "This guy must really not like his ex-wife."

He aimed and fired, only for the gun to note shoot. He turned it over revealing a note that said, "I'm not cleaning another plasma mess off the ground Boomstick. From, Wiz."

The gun lover growled before setting down the weapon.

Everyone got a laugh out of Wiz trolling Boomstick.

Number 4: Experimental MIRV from Fallout

Boomsitck said, "The easier way to know that something just got blown up, is the sight of a mushroom cloud. The experimental MIRV fired mini-nukes which blow up and make bodies parts rain from the sky, and coat the world around you in nuclear radiation, perfect for exterminating everything that moves."

"Uh…is that dangerous?" Chopper asked, sounding scared of the weapon.

Isom said, "Imagine seeing a giant mushroom shaped cloud in the distance, and then feeling such intense heat that it burns the flesh off your bones in an instant. Then, in the wake of the explosion, sickness, disease, birth defects, and other horrible side effects of radiation that leaves an entire area unhospitable. Because of this damage, nuclear power was a last resort, and, thankfully, in the wake of other weapons, became obsolete."

Everyone shuddered at Isom's description, even the dense Luffy.

He prepared to fire only for nothing to happen. He grimaced as he saw another note and Wiz's handwriting and sighed before saying, "Unfortunately, it only fires when you have eight mini-nukes, which are hard to come by, but when you get them, it is worth it."

Everyone let out a breath of relief upon seeing that Boomstick wouldn't get to shoot this weapon.

Number 3: Cerebral Bore from Turok 2: Seeds of Evil

Boomstick said, "According to Sun Tzu. You must get into an enemy's head. To do this, just grab a cerebral bore, and go to town!"

He grabbed the weapon and said, "This baby fires rounds that immediately seek an opponent's head, and drills into their flesh before popping their heads off like a turkey out of a deep fryer. Perfect to understand an enemy's tactics, as it is easier to do without that pesky skull in the way and their brain matter splattered all over the floor."

He fired a round, which flew around in the air, and connected to a dummy's head and drilled through its skull, which exploded.

Everyone looked disturbed at the sight of that weapon. Luffy looked pale as knew his devil fruit wouldn't protect him from a drill, and he didn't know if he could outrun it.

Brook said, "It shouldn't work on me. I don't have a brain."

Number 2: RYNO V from Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time

Boomstick said, "Our next entry has gone through multiple forms, but the most recent is the RYNO version 5."

He picked up said weapon and said, "Literally meaning, Rip You a New One, this baby unleashes a torrential lead downpour of bullets and rockets, while play Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture". It may take a long time to get all those plan pieces, but it sure is satisfying to see everything your screen die."

Brook said, "Tchaikovsky? I've never heard of him. Isom, do you think you could allow me to hear some of your world's music? I think I could draw some inspiration from that."

Isom said, "Gladly."

He aimed and prepared to fire, only for it to click. He saw another note on it, this time actually having a troll face drawn on it, and yelled, "Damn it, Wiz!"

Everyone laughed at the sight of Boomstick getting rolled once again.

Number 1: Nano Rifle from Red Faction Guerrilla

Boomstick said, "Out of all the ammunition we've had on this episode they all come pretty standard…we got missiles, bullets, bombs, and lasers. However, my number 1 pick stand out."

Usopp asked, "He based his choice for this because of the ammunition? That's different."

Picking up the weapon he said, "The Nano rifle does exactly what it says it does, and fires nanomachines that eat away at whatever you shoot at. This ammo eats through metal, flesh, and other things. If you like to see things disappear, like beer bottle caps, or ex-wifes, make sure this thing is on your list."

He aimed and fired a round. The nanomachines proceeded to tear through the dummy like it was nothing.

Everyone shuddered at the thought of being hit by that thing. It was one thing to get shot, but to have something eat away at you until you are nothing. That sounded like the world's worst way to die.

Boomstick smiled and said, "Now that I've had my fun, I think it is time for the other list. Power Armor. Now there is a difference between a power suit and robot armor. If you wear it, it is a suit. If you pilot it, it is a robot armor, so nothing from Titanfall here…sorry fans."

"Okay, now I want to see this Titanfall stuff," Franky said.

Isom said, "At a later day."

He then groaned, "And I'm not allowed to use or wear any of them because I am unreliable and irresponsible.

All of the members thought, 'Good call there, Wiz.'

Number 10: L.E.O Exosuit from Red Faction Armageddon

Boomtick said, "The Red Factions games is a world meant for you to destroy, so the L.E.O. exosuit shouldn't come as a surprise. This suit turns whoever wears it into a super soldier. Armed with a minigun and heat seeking rockets for offense, and armor plating and an energy shield for defense, this baby not only rocks at long range, but short range."

Franky imagined himself plugging into the suit and using it as a weapon against a horde of marines and a few ships. He almost laughed at the thought of them running away.

Number 9: Da'at Yichud Power Suit from Wolfenstein: The New Order.

Boomstick said, "If I were a paralyzes, Jewish person fighting the Nazi's, I would definitely go with a power suit that could give me the ability to walk again."

The light shined on the case as Boomstick approached and looked at the label, complete with a translation near it.

Boomstick looked at the title and said, "Yeah, I'm not going to try and pronounce this. Anyway, this suit is an exoskeleton that enhances the wearer and has a neural interface, allowing the paraplegic general who wore it to walk again. It isn't very feature heavy, but it's strengthens not only our body, but your faith as well. Mazeltov! A miracle."

"Doesn't seem to do much, but it looks like it could be useful for paraplegics," Chopper said, "That could be good just for giving pole their lives back."

Usopp said, "It probably won't help that they can't pronounce the name."

Number 8: The Tanooki Suit from the Super Mario Franchise

Boomtick said, "Does this really count as a power armor? Well it gives you powers, and you wear it, so fuck you all. This is my list I'll do whatever I want."

The light shined on it.

"Oh my gosh it looks so cute," Nami said, as she imagined herself in chibi form wearing it.

Robin also imagined it, but she imagined Chopper wearing it. The resident reindeer shuddered, as he felt a chill run down his spine.

Boomstick said, "When Mario replaces his overalls with this racoon onesie, he can hover short distances, gets a tail that can bludgeon anyone to death, and can turn into a statue, perfect for ignored your ex at a party. Good luck with alimony now, bitch!"

Nami blankly said, "Man this guy's relationship with his wife must have been a train wreck."

Number 7: All the suits from Warframe.

Boomstick rubbed his chin and said, "In Warframe there are tons of suits to wear. You can pick the fast blading Excalibur to cut down your enemies."

A light shown down on the suit.

Zoro said, "That's something I would use."

Sanji said, "Of course you would."

"Or you can use Loki to mind fuck your enemies with illusions or cloak yourself to kill them in secret."

Another light shown down on the suit.

Nami said, "I'd use that."

Robin said, "I could use it too. It could help hide my extra arms."

"Or you can go hard ass with the Rhino and straight up charge through whoever pisses you off."

Franky said, "That's my favorite."

Boomstick rubbed his chin and said, "You know what…fuck it, this is my list. I'll go with them all."

Number 6: CMC Power Combat Suit from the Starcraft Franchise

Boomstick said, "Now there are a lot of armors out there, but the CMC Power Combat Suit, is one of my favorites and the finest. "

A light shown down on this suit.

The gun lover said, "This suit not only comes with a life support system, and a cold fusion reactor, but it also brings drugs. Yes. Drugs. This baby will pump you full of aggression enhancers, synthetic adrenaline, and endorphins to keep you fighting. Coming down from that has to be a bitch."

"Drugs?" Chopper said, "That sounds incredibly dangerous, especially if they become addicted to them."

Zoro said, "Bah, cheaters."

Number 5: Augmented Reality Suit from Vanquish

Boomstick said, "At number 5, we have the Ferrari of power suits."

"What's a Ferrari?" Nami asked.

Isom paused the video and show them an image of one. They all oohed at the sight, until Isom dropped it.

A light shone down on the suit.

Boomstick said, "The augmented reaction suit is powerful, sexy, and makes you want to do some crazy shit. This suit amplifies the user's strength and acrobatics to the point of ridiculous, increases reaction time to the point that it looks like your pulling a matrix on your enemies, and uses thrusters, not that ridiculous word that they use, to move around like a maniac. It might tonly be a prototype and overheats, but it is damn awesome."

"That sounds like something I could use," Usopp said, "Get in, smash, and get the hell out."

Number 4: Gen2 Spartan Mjolnir Armor from Halo 5

Boomstick said, "The Gen2 Mjolnir is the true sign of earth going out and kicking alien ass."

A light shown down on the suit.

He said, "This thousand-pound monster of a suit can predict and enhance the wearers actions, and a lot of other stuff, this suit turns one man into a giant armored middle finger to whatever alien horde is attacking you."

Franky said, "Yeah, I had a feeling the chief's suit would come in, but that looks a bit different."

Isom answered, "It's another model. More advanced."

Franky said, "Cool."

Number 3: Power Suit from the Fallout series.

Boomstick said, "The world of Fallout is fill with dangerous things, from leather obsessed bandits, to thirty-pound roaches, to thirty-foot-tall monstrosities. For that, we have the power suit."

A light displayed the case.

The gun lover said, "Shielding you from radiation and hot lead this armor is awesome to have, and that's not counting the multiple upgrades you get later on if you can invest the time."

Franky said, "If that thing can protect you from nuclear radiation, I am so game for it."

Chopper said, "I know I would want to use it."

Number 2: Fully Powered Suit from Metroid Series

Boomstick said, "First off, no bias here. When this suit is fully powered, it protects Samus from all things.

A light shown down on the display.

He continued, "It can also make her curl up into a ball, drop bombs, use the screw attack, awesome name, and an arm cannon that can carry all kinds of ammo, Samus is effective against all forms of danger, including other famous bounty hunters. Hint. Hint. Nudge. Nudge. This suit can take you anywhere, and kick anything's ass."

"So we didn't see all that we could from Samus with that armor," Franky said as he remembered the first death battle and the crazy armor Samus used.

Isom explained, "It got a lot more complicated and powerful over the years. Believe me, we only scratched the surface of that monster."

Number 1: Nanosuit from Crysis

Boomstick said, "Our number one suit coats the user in nanomachines. While gross, it can provide you whatever you need."

A light showed the suit. Run faster, hit harder, and throw barrels like Donkey Kong. It can harden itself for damage resistance and has a cloaking device for sneaking around. However, be careful with it, as if you get caught with it, the suit can be dissolved, along with the person wearing it. So if you use it to peep. Don't' get caught."

Sanji said, "Isom, you are to make that armor immediately."

Isom asked, "If I do, I'm giving Nami the switch for it, and it will only dissolve your balls."

The perverted cook immediate sat down.

Isom felt his stomach rumble and said, "Okay, before we get to this, why don't we have a quick break for lunch? I'll help cook."

The pirates all left and prepared to get some food.

Hey, everyone hoped you like the battle. I tried to do the original justice as well as trying to get a good look at their equipment, and weapons. Let me all known what you think.

On a side note, no more original death battles. It is getting a little frustrating to get them all the time. I've already chosen my originals, so please stop.

Also, I'll be redoing the bit for Land of Heroes reactions, as I mixed up the buttons when I posted the new chapter. it should be repaired in a few days.

Criticism is welcome, flames are ignored.
