After the explosion from the wall, they all walked to the next room to find…a huge pool. They noticed a huge underwater city around, which made everyone gape in amazement, especially when they jumped into the water
"Whoa… This is where Unagi lives?" Chopper gaped.
"This... This looks like the lost city of Atlantis!" Vivian gasped. "I remember hearing those tales... I never knew they were actually true."
"Atlantis? Yar! I bet there be treasure around here!" Bombette smirked.
"Yeah! We'll get rich!" Scrub grinned.
"Poyo... (I'm not so sure about that...)" Kirby trailed.
"It feels a little murky here…" Chopper trailed, looking at the water around them. "But where could Unagi be right now? That's the question…"
They swam down to the bottom, looking at the big city. There was a big temple up ahead, and it had some kind of eel scent coming from it. The door was even big enough for an eel to fit in. There was a problem, though. Scrub couldn't stay underwater forever, since his face was starting to turn blue. He had to swim up to the surface to catch his breath. Kirby swam after him to help him.
"Poyo, (Sorry, Chopper, but I'm not going to let this...whatever he is stay alone,)" Kirby decided, while Scrub had no idea what he said, so he decided to lie back in the water.
"You know, this might not be back," Scrub realized. "Giant eels can be a little scary, you know?"
Kirby nodded in agreement to him as they decided to watch the four swim into the temple. In there, they saw a hole in the center of the room, and snoring could be heard.
"I wonder what that can be…" Vivian wondered as she took a look down the hole to see Unagi's head sticking up, which made her shriek. Her hat actually floated off her because of the water. Shadower's hat did as well, and his afro was revealed under his hat.
"Oh, crud! I was hoping no one would see my awesome afro. It takes A LOT to get this thing on, you know." Shadower noted as he tried to grab his hat and put it back on, but he had a hard time reaching it.
"Wait... You have an afro?" Chopper gawked.
"Yeah... Mysterious always hated it, though. But why do I care? He's not that likable."
Before he could do anything else, Chopper saw Vivian's eyes, which looked like he was staring into space once his eyes were set on them. Unlike Shadower, he could succumb to her beautiful eyes.
"This isn't good…" Vivian trailed while blushing. Unagi's eyes opened, and he rose up from the hole, looking at the four. He didn't see Vivian's eyes, since she covered them quickly. Shadower was just able to grab his hat and put it back on.
"Who are you people?! How did you get into my lair?!" Unagi asked in a monstrous voice. Chopper saw the Crystal Star, so he quickly got in his fighting stance.
"Look! We're here to take care of you!" Chopper declared. "That's right! AND… That Crystal Star on your tail! We need that thing!"
"You? Slay me? HA! Impossible!" Unagi cackled. "I'm the most feared thing of these seas! I'm on the top of the food chain! You're too small to take me on anyways! Look at you! I suppose I should just gobble you up!"
"Arr! Ye think ye can take us on, eh? Well, 'ow about we prove ye wrong?!" Bombette suggested. "This boy's taken on a Star God before! I'm sure ye'll be beaten down with some explosions an' hammerin'!"
"Oh ho ho ho ho! What a naïve Bob-omb! You'll be a nice little meal for me. It's been a while since I had Bob-omb! You all seem to make great meals, now that I'm rather hungry. This will be a tasty meal! Mwa ha ha ha ha!"
Tattle: That's Unagi the Eel. He's the most feared beast in the seas as of now! He's even on the top of the food chain! Max HP is 40, Attack is 5, and Defense is 1. He'll attack with his tail and even take a bite of you. This beast is dangerous…but he only has 40 HP? That seems like a complete joke! Well, it's all right, since this eel is probably weak, so use a lot of attacks on him! …But not fire! Fire doesn't really work underwater!
"No fire? Well I guess my attacks are useless." Vivian sighed, noticing the flames on her finger went out. "I can't do anything right now anyway. My hat's up at the ceiling. I think you guys can just take care of him for right now."
Chopper decided that using his Sword ability would be better because he could use it in water, so he swam over to Unagi and slashed him with his sword. The defense that he had only made him take 3 damage.
"Let me lower his defense real quick. That'll be a good idea." Shadower declared as he gave Unagi a good Shadow Punch and lowered his defense by 2. So Unagi had 0 defense now.
The eel bit Bombette, which did 5 damage and made him smirk. "Hmmmm… I actually like that taste. I think you'll be the first one, Bob-omb!"
"Oh, NOW you did it! I'm SO going to make you die for that!" Bombette growled as she charged at Unagi and exploded. When she landed back by her friends, she blinked for a second, realizing what she said. "…Yar? What did I just say there? That wasn't my kind of voice…"
Chopper shrugged and used his Power Jab, managing to jab at Unagi six times to deal 7 damage, making Unagi let out a screech. It even left some marks on his skin. He whipped at Chopper with his tail and knocked him toward a wall. This eel was MAD, and he showed it off!
"I was lucky to have this ability, so I think I should use it," Chopper swam toward Unagi and used a D-Down Slash, leaving a scar on Unagi, which began to anger him even. Bombette once again, blew up to deal some damage.
"We are doing pretty good right now! He's more than halfway done with! This is going to be EASY!" Chopper found rocks coming down when Unagi hit the ceiling. He guarded the attacks, but took 3 damage in the process. Shadower lowered Unagi's defense first with a Shadow Punch, which did only 4 damage instead of 5. Chopper whacked at Unagi with his hammer afterward. Now Unagi only had 7 HP left.
"Urgh… This is not good at all…" Unagi decided to raise his attack by 5, which was not good for Chopper and his friends. But they had this fight in the bag, so it should be over in no time!
"OK, so he raised his attack. We can still beat him!" Chopper assured as he jabbed at Unagi, causing him to scream, and then Bombette finished him off with an explosion. Unagi began to scream in horror, and it was certainly louder than before.
"GWAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Unagi sank down in the hole in defeat, which made Chopper smile. "See? I told that pink Bob-omb guy we'd be able to take him down! Yeah, he only had 40 HP! This fight was a cakewalk!"
"Hold on... The Crystal Star didn't come out of the hole..." Shadower trailed.
"Is it over yet?" Vivian asked, still covering her eyes to avoid people seeing them. Chopper swam up to get her hat and gave it to her. She put it back on so she didn't have to cover her eyes.
"Thanks, Chopper," she blushed, but before she could do anything though, they heard some shaking, which caused Chopper's hat and sword to get sucked into the hole, and a huge current pushed them out of the temple and back outside in Atlantis. Scrub and Kirby saw them come up to the surface. A big rock happened to be floating on the surface, to their luck.
"Let's get on this rock! We'll be safe here!" Scrub suggested.
"Yeah! Good idea!" Chopper nodded as they swam over to the big rock and got on it. They all saw Unagi rise back up, but his eyes were red and so were his scales. Not to mention his teeth had become red too. Everyone was surprised when they saw the eel covered in flames.
"Poyo? (How can an eel in the water be on fire?)" Kirby questioned.
"I'm not through with you yet! I still have more than you think!" Unagi roared. "This time, you're not going to be leaving this place!"
Tattle: Uh oh... It looks like Unagi's not finished yet... This could be a problem. Max HP is 40, Attack is 7, and Defense is 1. His scales are capable of shooting fire at you, and even he can breathe fire on you! However, being on fire means he also has a weakness. Water will certainly help you take out those flames and touch him! Although, that effect's not going to last forever. Also, why is this eel on fire when he's in the water? Is he breaking logic?!
"Err… Lemme see…" Chopper became Water Chopper and squirted water at the eel, causing him to have his flames go away. He was rather…dizzy at this moment, so Shadower used his Shadow Punch afterward to lower his defense.
"This reminds me of Bloopink. He doesn't really attack when he was covered in ink. It's just like Unagi!" Chopper then saw Unagi's scales shot some fire at Chopper, but it only did 1 damage because of his Water Ability.
"Huh… I guess he still attacks… Meh, we can still finish it." Chopper squirted more water at Unagi to deal 4 damage, and then Bombette used her Bomb attack on him afterward. At this moment, the eel's flames returned, and he spewed out a large amount of flames on everyone.
"WHOA! That hurts!" Scrub cried as he noticed himself covered in black soot. Everyone took 7 damage from the attack, while Chopper only suffered 5. Everyone shook the soot left on them and let it go back into the water.
"Ah, yes... My fire breath is capable of a lot!" Unagi grinned. "Not many people have witnessed it, you know! Usually those who have gotten me this far end up dying in the end!"
"Well we're not stepping back now! You're not going to disturb any more sailors when we're done with you!" Chopper squirted more water at Unagi, and then Shadower went to lowering his defense with his Shadow Punch.
"Arrgh! Even with flames, the water is harmful to me!"
"Man, I wish I can do something, but I think this is the only thing that probably works for the best…" Scrub trailed.
"Don't worry, Scrub. You'll get your chance to fight another boss someday…" Chopper assured as he performed a Stylish as he jumped on Unagi's head. Bombette exploded right on the eel too, leaving him covered with shoot.
"Grrrgh! What is WRONG with me today?" Unagi quickly shook his head to get the soot off him before his flames returned. He spat some fireballs at Chopper and Vivian, who guarded them easily.
Kirby wasn't sure what to do. He knew his Stone attack could damage him, so he floated over Unagi and turned into a stone, smashing his head down onto the rock, leaving him with only 5 HP left.
"Hmmm… I got the perfect finisher!" Chopper raised his arms up, and the water began to get wavy. Everyone looked around, and they were surrounded by a water shield. A wave appeared behind them, making Unagi gulp.
"Oh no… Is this...the end?" Unagi gaped.
The wave came down on Unagi, and the flames on him were gone. Not to mention the sword Chopper had from earlier were in those waves, which was able to go right through the eel's head.
"AAAAAAAARGH!"
Unagi let out a scream as he sank down to the bottom of Atlantis, with his body slowly disappearing. Afterward, the waves stopped and Chopper removed his ability. Everyone else was amazed by the sight they just witnessed.
"Whoa… That was awesome." Scrub gaped.
"That's only if I had that ability," Chopper mentioned. "I'm still weak to electric, you know. Water beats fire, electric beats water, fire beats ice and grass. I still have flaws, you know…"
"Yeah, every element has at least one weakness," Vivian nodded.
"Poyo? (But where's the Crystal Star?)" Kirby wondered.
At that moment, they saw something glittering in the water. They noticed the Sapphire Star slowly rising up from the waters and land right in front of Chopper and his friends.
"Hey! That's..." Shadower began.
"Arr! Chopper! The treasure!" Bombette exclaimed, cutting Shadower off. "So, this is the treasure ye've been seeking all this time? They…look rather cool! So! I think I'll be stayin' with ye this whole trip! You'll probably need me help anyway."
"Ummm... You sure about that?" Chopper gawked.
"Would a pirate ever lie to ye?"
"Well... Actually, most pirates lie to people."
"Oh... Well, I'm speakin' the truth here! I'll stay by yer side, an' maybe ye can help me with this whole...bombnesia thing."
"Yeah, I think it's for the best. It's better if we look after you anyway!"
After Chopper finished his conversation, he walked over to the blue Crystal Star, and once he touched it, it began to circle around him. Once it floated above him, he held it up high with a smile.
You got a Crystal Star! Your Star Power has increased to 6! And Chopper can learn the special move Sweet Feast!
END OF CHAPTER
And so, Chopper defeated the most feared beast of the seas, and now peace has been restored there. With this eel gone, ships can finally sale without being in trouble, and pirates can continue to rob! …If that's a good thing, that is. But how do the X-Nauts and Phis know about each other? Will they meet again and fight for the Crystal Star? With Chopper's friend's ex-girlfriend, Bombette, who has suffered bombnesia, they began to leave the caves to return back to Rogueport. Now only fifteen Crystal Stars remain…but will they be easy to achieve?
Yes, Shadower DOES have an afro. Why? Well I didn't know what to give him, honestly. Plus, afros are cool, and I would actually like to have one if I could. Yeah, that's weird, but I am weird sometimes.
This boss was a little on the easy side, but it CAN be tough... But Chapter 6's boss is probably tougher...and cooler.
