Metal Town Pt 2
Cyrus forced himself out of the incredibly comfy bed and made his way to the bathroom. Once he was finished the sound of chopping led him towards the kitchen.
A smile immediately formed on his face as he saw Alex with a bandage on her forehead and cooking while Mary made coffee.
"Now I can see how you was able to beat up all of those thugs" Mary said with a sly grin as she stared at Cyrus's abs "Ain't that right honey since you are burning your omelet"
Alex gasped in embarrassment with her face now bright red as she quickly plated her breakfast and snatched a fork before blitzing out the kitchen which surprised Cyrus all while keeping her eyes glued to the ground.
Cyrus let out a small chuckle as he put four slices of bread into the toaster and went to his room to change.
Mary just let out a laugh as she made herself a cup of coffee and poured the two children juice as they all sat down at a table next to a still blushing Alex who was nibbling into her omelet.
"I've been wondering something since yesterday" Cyrus said after eating his buttered toast "That butcher guy said he was going to take me to the arena, which if I had to guess is some kind of fighting pit?"
"That's correct its a place where anyone with three warnings goes to fight for their freedom after winning five fights which are to the death" Mary said as she took a sip of her coffee "Though usually the people fighting can barely survive a single fight let alone five with their bodies now being the way that they are"
After saying that she brought her right leg on the table and rolled up the pant leg to reveal smooth grey iron.
"Got this on the second warning, everyone gets a limb removed as a permanent reminder to pay up on time" Mary said with a annoyed look on her face as she put her leg down.
"Actually mom did you forget what Rick said about that man who got to keep his limbs" Alex said as Mary nodded her head.
"Oh yeah, I guess I should tell you about those people's cash cow" Mary said as she took a sip of coffee "I don't know a lot but this guy with two swords came into to town a couple of months ago and got himself three warnings in a single day, Though they didn't chop off his limbs properly because he was skilled with those blades of his"
"If he's so skilled why doesn't he just fight his way out?" Cyrus asked with a interested look on his face.
"Haven't got a clue but from what i heard from the regular drinkers a lot of people from all over come and bet when he fights just to see if he loses" Mary said making Cyrus simply nod his head.
"Alright just one more thing I want to know, what tax are you guys paying for anyway?" Cyrus asked as he glance out the window and saw a one legged old man handing over a large sack to lanky man.
"They might not look it but they are police who make us citizens pay a hefty tax to help fund them in upholding justice" Mary spat into her fire place "But the twisted part is anyone who can't pay the tax is a criminal in need of serious punishment"
Cyrus tightened his fist as he saw the lanky man punch the old man before dragging him down the street.
"All right then I'm gonna start my job, be back later" Cyrus said as he picked up the remaining toast and his strawhat before leaving.
Someone in the arena has never lost a fight and instantly got three warnings, seems like the perfect person to join my crew Cyrus thought to himself as he walked away from the lanky man he beat into the ground and wandered over to the market place.
He stopped when he saw the young male owner of the fish market being pushed onto the ground by a man and a woman wearing leather and dark brown caps.
The man held his boss down with his large boot while the woman laughed and gave him a swift kick to the ribs.
Looks like I found my ticket in Cyrus thought to himself as he sprinted toward the two corrupt police officers while already forming a fist.
"E-Everyone come quick that guy who hit Jack is now facing the torture twins!" A young man exclaimed as he ran out of the starting to fill up tavern.
"He's doing what!" Mary shouted in shock as she stared at her daughter who had an equally shocked look before they, Anna, Mike and everyone else in the tavern followed the crowed of people rushing towards the market.
Alex, Mary, Anna and Mike shoved through the large crowd of villagers and saw Cyrus standing in front of the young fish market owner while staring down the two police officers in front of him.
"How dare you hit my sister!?" A muscular man who has dark brown hair that reached his shoulders, a brown beard and a dark brown eye that was glaring at Cyrus. The man snarled in anger as he rested his large iron mace against his shoulder.
The muscular man glanced down at a petite woman who also has dark brown hair that reached her waist, dark browns eyes that glared at Cyrus and dark red lipstick.
"Don't worry brother I'm all right" The petite woman said as she rested her hand on the handle of her katana while clutching her red cheek.
"It's not my fault you decided to shield him with your face" Cyrus replied with a grin as the young man crawled away.
"Cyrus what are you doing?" Alex asked as Cyrus and the two police officers glanced at her.
"After hearing that it takes three warnings to go to the arena and these two bastards where harming my boss I'd figure I'll kill two birds with one stone" Cyrus said as he cracked his knuckles "Isn't it obvious"
"Are you insane?, You'll get hurt and loose a limb" Mary said as Cyrus just flashed her a grin.
"That's great as a pirate with no scars must be a coward which is one thing I'm certainly ain't" Cyrus said which shocked everyone besides Mary, Anna and Mike.
"You're a pirate!?" The petite woman, Alex and the muscular man shouted in shock as they stared at Cyrus.
"Yeah now lets fight or are you guys gonna run away?" Cyrus asked as he got in a karate stance while watching the muscular man tighten his grip on his mace while the petite woman removed her pink sheath from her hip.
"Harriet go first" The muscular man said as she nodded her head.
"Thank you Henry now watch as I kill this fool for fighting against the law" Harriet said as she narrowed her eyes "Die you filth!"
Cyrus watched Harriet rush towards him with a great amount of speed.
"Dead man's Thrust!" She shouted as she quickly thrust her sword towards his heart with a forward lunge.
"Swift Eel Counter" Cyrus said as in a flash slamming his right palm against the left side of her blade moving the weapon away from his body before quickly following up by smashing the back of his hand into her chin which twisted her head while shaking her brain to the point of knocking her out.
Everyone was silent as they watched Harriet drop her blade and collapse on the ground with a thud.
"Well that was embarrassing" Cyrus said with an sigh as he rolled her over to show everyone that she was out cold.
"How dare you do that to my sister!" Henry roared as he rushed Cyrus who slipped into his boxing stance and waited for the enraged man to get in striking distance.
"Giant Ogre Swing!" Henry yelled as he swung his mace towards Cyrus with a two handed grip.
"Rhino Destructive Blow" Cyrus said as he weaved around the sloppy attack and threw a right curved punch striking him in his rib cage which instantly stopped him in his tracks.
Henry's eye's widen in pain as he stared at the blood which flew out of his mouth due to having the middle section of his right rib cage break and a singe bone pierce his lung.
Everyone stared at Henry whose eyes where now in the back of his head as he collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
"And here I thought they would actually be a challenge" Cyrus muttered to himself he got out of his stance while everyone else suddenly cheered.
"HE JUST DEFEATED THE TORTURE TWINS!" All the villagers shouted as they stared at Cyrus before Mary picked him up in a large hug.
"H-How can you be so strong?" Alex asked as Mary put him down while he gave her a large smirk.
"Because as the future pirate king I can't afford to be weak" Cyrus said with a laugh as everyone walked back to the tavern.
"Jack, I have some terrible news!" The metal shelled Den Den Mushi shouted with a look of shock and fear on its face which made Jack stop working out and pick up the transfer on its shell.
"What is it?" Jack said as he glanced outside of the window and stared at the village below.
"That guy who punched you in Mary's Tavern is a pirate!" The Den Den Mushi shouted in shock, "He also defeated the torture twins by himself along with Bruce on his collection run!"
"So that guy is a pirate" John said to himself as he glanced at his cleaver that was hanging on his wall. "What's their condition?"
"Unconscious and barely stable sir!" The Den Den Mushi reported while groans of pains could be heard in the background.
"Tell Maria to meet me at the Tavern and let the boss know that we're going to have another criminal join the arena" Jack ordered as he removed his cleaver from his wall and attached it to his back.
"Yes sir, she's on her way right now." The Den Den Mushi said.
"It seems some people never listen to warnings." Jack said with an annoyed tone in his voice as he left his office.
"You really like to eat, don't you hottie?" Mary asked as she, Jane and everyone else in the tavern watched in slight shock and amazement as Cyrus finished off his cherry pie before he started on another one.
"That makes 98!" An old woman said as she stared at Cyrus who finished off that one as well in the blink of an eye.
"99!" Anna yelled as Cyrus swallowed the last piece of that plate.
"100!" Everyone shouted in shock as they stared at Cyrus who finished off the last plate before he carried the large pile of plates into the kitchen.
"T-That's impossible! No human can eat that much food!" The old doctor stammered in shock as he stared at Cyrus who came back and was sipping on a glass filled with rum.
"It's easy when the food is that amazing." Cyrus said with a large smile.
"Thanks you," Alex said with a proud smile on her face.
"THE PIRATE CYRUS COME OUT RIGHT NOW!" Jack's booming voice made all the fun leave the room. "YOU GOT THREE WARNINGS! YOU KNOW WHAT THE PUNISHMENT IS!"
"Took them long enough" Cyrus said as he stood up with a grin on his face.
"Be safe" Mary said while Alex, Anna and Mike nodded their heads in agreement.
"Don't worry I'll play nice" Cyrus said as he threw the door and locked eyes with Jack, a small army of police officers with guns and a athletic built woman with a brown ponytail and fair skin.
"Yo" Cyrus said with a casually wave as the police officers aimed their rifles and guns at him which didn't faze him as he kept his eyes on Jack "Before I go to the arena are you guys going to take my limbs like you did to the rest of the people?"
"I would love nothing more than to slowly hack off all of your limbs and mount you on my wall" Jack spoke with a small grin on his face as he held the sharp end of his blade against his throat but the our boss wants you unharmed"
"Alright lead the way" Cyrus said he locked eyes with Jack who pressed the blade closer against Cyrus's neck and kept it there.
"Men cuff him and take him to the arena" Jack ordered as Cyrus found his arms and legs chained up before being dragged towards the arena.
And that ends part two of Metal town. In the next chapter Cyrus meets his first nakama. Thank you for reading and don't forget to review.
