Captain Isuka!
Prison Break?
On the outside of a certain Navy Battle Ship, everything appears to be going perfectly fine. The marines are just now pulling into a small island. The island features a marine base with a prison. Below the base is a small town. In the hijacked Navy Battle Ship, Shisui sits with his eyes closed. Everything is going according to plan. The marines have no idea that one of their ships have been taken over. Still, this is where things will get tricky.
"Captain." Calls a voice, making Shisui open his eyes and turn to a young pirate.
"The marines have been imprisoned in the cells and gagged as requested." Says the pirate, making Shisui nod.
"Can you tell me what your plan is?" Asks another voice, making Shisui look to Ain. Ain now wears a sleeveless white marine shirt with a tie. Shisui had requested she wear marine attire with the rest of the crew.
"You are a Vice Admiral, right?" Asks Shisui, making Ain nod her head.
"As far as everyone else knows, yes." Confirms Ain, as her becoming a pirate hasn't reached Navy HQ. She suspects if she had been delivered to Vice Admiral Bradley, she would have simple disappeared; given what she knows about the man.
"Good, then you should be the highest ranking person on this island." Says Shisui, making Ain widen her eyes and nod her head.
"So that's it." Says Ain, now understanding. Shisui nods his head.
"You will infiltrate the base, gathers maps, and any other things you will need to fulfill your position as Navigator." Says Shisui, having decided Ain will be the navigator of his crew. Ain accepted this role due to her experience on the sea.
"What about us?" Asks a deep voice, making Shisui turn a large muscular man with a Mohawk and metal arm.
"Buccaneer is ready for action!" Booms the pirate with a laugh. Shisui smirks at his enthusiasm.
"Good, your job will be to free the others." States Shisui, making Buccaneer smirk.
"You've got it." Accepts the large bear like man.
"What about the ones in the base?" Asks a young pirate, while dressed in marine clothing.
"I will handle that." Says Ain, making Shisui nod his head.
"This has to be done fast but carefully." States Shisui, getting his crew to nod. 400 pirates versus a marine base, Shisui is liking his odds in this fight.
Docks
Standing on the docks of the base, is a marine unit. Standing in front of the unit is a young woman with short vermilion hair, brown eyes and a band aid under her left eye. She wears a marine coat and a rapier hangs from her waist.
"Captain Isuka, that's the transport." States a marine solider, making the young woman look to the ships. She hums with a smile and nod.
"Prepare to transport the prisoners." Commands Isuka, getting the marines to salute. Isuka rubs the back of her hand where a burn mark resides. So caught up in his thoughts she fails to see the navy ships dock.
Ain exits the ship with her marine act in place. She spots Isuka and walks forward. Isuka looks up and spots Ain before breaking out into a smile. The two have fought together before and know each other. Isuka always felt Ain is too serious while Ain feels Isuka is too careless. Something she will prove by days end.
"Welcome Vice Admiral." Salutes Isuka, making Ain nod and return the gesture.
"Tell the captains I would like to have a meeting before we unload the prisoners." Says Ain, making Isuka tilt her head.
"I have to do it?" Asks Isuka with a pout, "G-9 don't like to be given orders."
"Tell them a Vice Admiral demands it and you'll receive no trouble." Assures Ain, making Isuka nod her head. In a few moments, Isuka returns with a several captains. The captains appears unhappy but Ain could care less.
"What?" Growls a captain, making Ain narrow her eyes.
"Watch your tone, captain." Warns Ain, making the man scoff.
"Where's Commodore Gregor?" Asks another captain with narrowed eyes. He had thought this girl would be taken care of before reaching the island.
"That is what we will discuss." Says Ain before walking away. The captains growl but follow. Isuka looks on with a nagging feeling in her gut.
The pirates watching smirk as Buccaneer moves quickly. The pirates follow and exit the ship, discreetly. Buccaneer lands and moves towards the first ship. He spots to marines and nods to his men. Two men dash forward and quickly take out the marines before pushing their bodies in the water. They then take their place just as another pair of marines round the corner.
"Hey, where's Jack?" Asks one of the marines before one pirate draws his sword and plunges it into his gut. The other falls just as quickly, taken by surprise. With the marines down, the pirates signal Buccaneer who moves forward.
"Keep your eyes open." States Buccaneer before he begins to climb the anchor chain. Buccaneer is the first one in the ship and spots three marines. He acts quickly and uses his metal arm to take out all three. The other pirates enter the ship and begin to silently take out the marines they come across. One pirate slices the throat of a marine before plunging his sword into the back of another.
In the prison cells, sit hundreds of pirates. One pirate is a young woman with olive colored hair and eyes. Suddenly a commotion makes her look up. A marine tumbles down the stairs as two pirates enter the room. They look around for a couple of seconds before the dark skinned man growls.
"This ain't the armory!" Growls the pirate.
"Shit, we at least we found the prisoners." Says the other pirate. He then takes of a Transponder Snail.
"We found the brig." Says the pirate.
"Good, free them quickly and come to the deck." Orders Buccaneer. The pirates look to each other before one man stands.
"Who the hell are you guys?" Asks the pirate, making Shisui's men smirk.
"We're the crew of the future King of the Pirates." States the dark skinned pirate with a smile before his partner unlocks the cells, "And now you are too." Olive stands and walks forward.
"Come on, we don't have much time." Says Olive, making the others nod. Olive and the other pirates reach the deck to see marines lounging around.
"Everyone stay calm, we are taking over the ships!" Shouts Buccaneer as he lands on the deck. The marines look to him before drawing their weapons.
"Attack!" Shouts Buccaneer as he charges forward. Pirates break free from all ships and attack the marines while some exit the ships and head towards the base.
Base
Ain walks through the base with her Transponder Snail active. She looks around and counts the cells. Isuka looks to her with confusion while the captains whisper amongst themselves. The nagging feeling in Isuka's gut has become nearly unbearable. She feels as if something is about to happen but she doesn't know what.
"There aren't many prisoners here." Says Ain, glancing to Isuka who nods her head.
"Most of them have been moved to a bigger prison." States Isuka, making Ain nod her head. Shisui listens to the chatter while sitting in the battle ship.
"Very well." Says Ain before their group reaches a set of doors. Ain enters the room and looks to the captains. The captains' growl before following orders. Isuka attempts to step into the room but Ain stops her.
"Thank you, get some rest." States Ain, making Isuka slowly nod her head. The doors shut and Ain turns to the captains. Isuka unable to shake the bad feeling heads back out to the docks.
"Gentlemen, I am here to tell you, we've been betrayed." Says Ain, making the captains narrow their eyes at Ain.
"Slavery, murder, rape and human experimentation have all been conducted by Vice Admiral Bradley." Says Ain, making the captains glance to each other, "Commodore Gregor has admitted to these crimes after failing to silence me."
"Where is your proof?" Demands a captain with narrowed eyes. Ain glances to him and sighs.
"I have none but Gregor's confession." States Ain, buying as much time as she can. The captains smirk before standing.
"Good, then when you die… all credibility dies with you." Says a captain, making Ain look to him.
"Indeed." Confirms Ain, "But it will take more than all of you to kill me." Quick as lightning, Ain flips onto the table and draws her pistols before spinning. She fires rapidly, killing the captains in quick succession before coming to a halt, in front of the last captain on the opposite end of the table from where she was seated.
"P-Please, I had no idea." Pleads the last captain, making Ain narrow her eyes.
"That someone would find out." Adds Ain before pulling the trigger.
Isuka has just reached the docks, only to see the ships on fire and the pirates running free. Isuka draws her sword and rallies her men who charge forward. Buccaneer sees the reinforcements and growls. He looks to the ship's cannons and smiles.
"Give them a taste of their own cannons!" Commands Buccaneer as the pirates load the cannons. Isuka looks up to see the cannons armed.
"Take cover!" Commands Isuka before the cannons fires a volley of shots. The marines sail back from the explosions as Isuka shields her eyes.
"Hold them!" Commands Isuka before running back into the base. She widens her eyes when she enters the base and finds the prisoners free. She dodges a swing and takes down the pirate before jumping over three pirates and turning.
"Soru (Shave)!" Says Isuka before vanishing and taking down all three pirates. Isuka stands and moves to the room where she left Ain. She opens the doors with sweat running down her face.
"Vice Admiral-!" Calls Isuka before her shout dies in her throat. Isuka is met with the deceased bodies of the captains. She looks around with horrified eyes but sees no sign of Ain. Isuka turns and dashes through the halls while rallying the marines who fight back.
Ain exits the base with a bag of maps and tools. Once outside she stops when she sees Buccaneer holding the throat of a marine. She walks up to him and stops in front of him. Buccaneer looks to her and the two stare off. Buccaneer sighs before dropping the marine who has passed out due to the lack of oxygen.
"You sure have a bleeding heart, navigator-san." Says Buccaneer, making Ain turn away from the large man.
"I'm just not a savage." States Ain, making Buccaneer's eyes strain with anger.
"Oi, oi, that wasn't very nice." Says Buccaneer, making Ain glance to him. The two stare off with the wind blowing between them.
"That's enough." Says a voice, making the two turn to Shisui who walks over to them. As he walks towards them, he is shadowed by marines attacking from above. Shisui stops before jumping straight up and performing a corkscrew spin, while drawing his sword. He easily cuts down the marines before kicking one to the ground before righting himself in midair and swinging down. The bodies of the marines fall to the ground as Shisui sheathes his sword and stands.
"I don't want in fighting amongst my crew." Says Shisui, making Ain turn her head away. Buccaneer sighs and rubs the back of his head.
"Sorry." Mutters Ain, making Buccaneer look to her.
"No you were right, no need to kill when it is not needed." Says Buccaneer. The pirates raid the base, taking treasure and weapons.
"Vice Admiral!" Shouts a voice, making Ain stiffen and turn her head to see Isuka charging forward with the marines.
"Isuka comes to a stop and glances at Buccaneer and Shisui, whose eyes are shadowed.
"Get away from the Vice Admiral." Demands Isuka with a growl. The pirates snicker at the order while Ain remains calm with her eyes shadowed.
"Well Vice Admiral?" Says one pirate with a smirk, "Everything seems to have gone off without a hitch." Ain looks up with the fire reflecting of her eyes.
"What does that mean?" Demands Isuka before Ain look to her. Isuka looks around to see the pirates not attacking Ain and Ain not attacking them. Isuka's eyes widen before looking to Ain.
"Vice Admiral?" Questions Isuka with shock. Ain fully turns to Isuka and looks to her seriously.
"I stopped being a Vice Admiral when I learned of G-9's actions and the World Governments approval of such actions." Reveals Ain, making the marines gasp.
"I've left evidence for you to give to the higher ups." Says Ain with her eyes averted, "You will know of their involvement when they throw it under the rug and seek to get rid of you." Isuka's eyes remain shadowed before she raises her head with hardened eyes.
"Vice Admiral Ain, you are under arrest for treason." Says Isuka with watery eyes and her sword pointed at Ain.
"Ahh, I knew she was going to say that." Says a pirate. Ain looks to Isuka and sighs.
"I believe it is time we go." Says Shisui as he looks to Ain. Ain looks to him and internally thanks him before nodding her head. As the pirates turn away, Isuka shakes with anger.
"Running away?" Calls Isuka, making the pirates turn to her.
"You've lost, Captain-chan." Says one pirate with a smile.
"Do you really believe your men can survive another fight with us?" Asks Buccaneer. Isuka growls at their mocking before taking a step forward.
"You pirates…" Growls Isuka with shadowed eyes, making Shisui glance to her, "You are the reason the world lives in fear." Shisui narrows his eyes at the statement before his vison becomes clouded with an island engulfed in flames and a young boy sitting on the ground with wide eyes.
"Where ever you go, you cause pain and panic!" Shouts Isuka, making the pirates look to each other.
"And the Navy, doesn't?" Asks Shisui as he steps forward, surprising Isuka.
"The Navy stands for Justice." Says Isuka.
"Who's Justice?" Asks Shisui, quickly. Isuka looks to the teen and becomes confused, "The Navy pushes their brand of Justice on ordinary people and expect blind obedience from the populace."
"That's-." Starts Isuka before Shisui continues.
"You condone slavery, instigate violence, and crush those who speak out against such action." States Shisui, making the pirates nod their heads, "Is that the Justice you speak of, Captain?"
"That is not Justice." Growls Shisui, memories flooding back into his head, "True Justice can only be achieved when all people are equal, regardless of birth, religion, gender, and wealth."
"Such a thing takes time and cannot be done when pirates roam free!" Counters Isuka, making Shisui shake his head.
One Piece Original SoundTrack - Difficult
"There you go, like a broken record player." Says Shisui as the ground cracks under him, "Blaming pirates for the Governments short comings."
"Not once, has the Government taken blame for its actions." Says Shisui before growling, "They will never admit to all the deaths they've caused or the people they could've saved."
"And so I will step forward and make the world hear my words." Says Shisui as his eyes glow with ambition, "I will see them all given True Justice by my own hands." Black smoke is released from Shisui's body and travels into the smoke filled sky.
"The world will know my name and will strike fear into those who deem themselves above others." Says Shisui with glowing red eyes, "Black Hole!" Shisui slams his hand on the ground and spreads the smoke like substance over the whole base, completely evading the marines and Isuka. As the name suggest, the darkness begins to swallow everything. The base, the boats, the weapons, the flames, and even the bodies of marines.
"Bring him down!" Shouts a marine in fear, before firing. The others begin to fire their weapons and shoot cannon balls at Shisui. However, Shisui doesn't move and lets them hit him. Isuka widens her eyes when the bullets and projectiles hit but vanish inside his body of darkness. In a few short moments, the base is gone, leaving only barren land.
"I-Impossible." States a marine as the pirates look on with fear and respect. Ain's mouth hangs open with wide eyes at the demonstration of power. Shisui stands with shadowed eyes before looking to the marines.
"Fate has deemed you all unlucky due to me running into you." Says Shisui as Isuka enters a stance with her rapier, "Despair!"
"Liberation!" Calls Shisui as he spreads his arms out. The darkness rises and spits out the crushed debris that was once the marine base. The marines take covers and shout out as the debris bombards their position. The debris is followed by bullets and other projectiles shot out by the marines.
"Logia… he's a Logia!" Shouts Isuka as she evades a ship anchor. Rocks and dust is kicked into the air by the falling debris as Shisui stands, looking like a demon amongst the falling wreckage. His crew shield their eyes from the dust and brace themselves against the shaking ground. With the attack ending, the sight that greets the pirates is a wreckage filled ground with the bodies of marines all around.
End Song
Shisui looks on at the wreckage before turning his back and walking towards his crew. His footsteps are slow as he passes by the bodies of several marines. He keeps walking as smoke rises around the area and flames flicker. Pieces of debris shakes before lifting. Isuka stands with blood and scrapes over her body. Shisui stops and glances back at the marine with respect.
"Even with only seconds to spare, you performed excellent maneuvers to evade the full force of my attack." Says Shisui with surprise, "I cannot help but be impressed."
"Save it." Growls Isuka before spitting out some blood and gripping her sword, "You'll regret it soon." Shisui looks on at the brave marine before turning to her fully.
"Is that so?" Asks Shisui before flicking his blade out slightly. Isuka closes her eyes and inhales before snapping her eyes open.
"Soru (Shave)!" Calls Isuka before vanishing from her position. The pirates look around but can't see her.
"What was that?!" Asks a pirate.
"How the hell should I know?!" States another pirate. Shisui is the only one unfazed by the move and stays calm. While invisible to most, Isuka is perfectly seen by Shisui. He parries her blade in a quick motion, just as Isuka becomes visible in front of him. Isuka's face says it all. Her eyes are wide with her mouth open.
"Too slow." Says Shisui before vanishing via Soru, making Isuka gasp. Shisui reappears behind her with his back turned and sword in the process of being sheathed.
"Ittoryu Iai: Hōzuri (One Sword Quick Draw Style: Cheek Stroke)." States Shisui as he sheathes his sword. Blood spurts from Isuka's neck and head before stopping. Isuka gasps and falls to the ground, not sure of what just occurred. In reality, the attack merely left a cut on her cheek but had Shisui wished to use the full attack, Isuka would not have survived.
"Captain, reinforcements!" Shouts Buccaneer, making Shisui look out to sea. He spots several navy vessels and walks forward.
"Prepare the ship." Says Shisui, making his crew look to him.
"We'll never outrun them!" Panics a pirate as Ain looks to Shisui.
"Do as he says!" Orders Ain, prepared to fulfill her job as Navigator. Shisui steps forward as his body turns to darkness.
"I'll make a path." Assures Shisui before darkness explodes from him, "Dākuu~ēbu (Dark Wave)!" Shisui transforms his whole body into darkness and charges towards the navy vessels. Shisui sours right for the vessels, leaving a trail of darkness following behind him.
"Fire!" Shouts a captain of a vessel. The marines fire at the black cloud but do nothing to stop Shisui. Shisui circles the vessels several times before his ship appears. Shisui lands on his ship, in a crouch while sheathing his sword.
"Ittoryu Iai: Yami Giri (One Sword Quick Draw Style: Darkness Cutter)!" Says Shisui as he fully sheathes his sword. Behind him, the navy ships are cut by a countless numbers of slashes, which come out of the darkness trailing behind Shisui. By moving at high speeds, Shisui releases countless slashes which are then swallowed by his darkness and expelled near his enemy. This attack is very hard to evade given the fact that Shisui can release the slashes at any given moment. The navy ships are cut to pieces and begin to sink as Isuka stands on wobbly legs.
"W-Who are you?" Asks Isuka, making Shisui turn to her as fire flickers behind him.
"Worship me." Says Shisui as he straightens his hair, "The Navy will pay for the crime of harming the Lady of the Hundred Demon House." Isuka widens her eyes at his statement and pales.
"Those who had a hand will die and repent forever." Says Shisui before he smirks with his crew, "There will be none before me, there shall be none after me, I am the sixth heir of the house of Koujiro; Koujiro D. Shisui!"
And end! Second chapter is up and I'm having a thrill writing this story.
Shisui has the Yami Yami no mi. But mine is different as it allows the full use of its Logia abilities.
