Chapter 27: The Final Counter! Ellix's Powerful Rokushiki!

Colour Spread: Fanfic Xover...What's Fairy Tail?-The setting is inside the Fairy Tail Guild. Nami is angrily punching Grey as he strips, whilst Robin stares on in confusion at the Master's use of Magic, whilst Franky is building a machine that looks like a wizard, much to the excitement of most spectators. Brook is playing a piece for most of the other members, whilst Zoro and Kana have a drinking contest. Sanji has passed out from a massive nosebleed at the sight of Lucuy and Erza, who just stare in confusion, Chopper and the other Guild members listen to another one of Usopp's fake stories. Finally Luffy and Eri are fighting Natsu, accusing him of stealing Ace's powers, whilst Ellix and Alain clash with Dream Dream Tension Shot and Flare Hook.

With Annabel and Dimo...

"Make with the off shutting! Make with the off shutting!" Dimo screamed with over-the-top fear as Annabel was fiddling with the giant light-turned-bomb.

"Well excuse me for not being an expert at disarming bombs!" Annabel yelled at him with shark teeth. "And any luck yet!?"

Dimo was trying to prize open the doors with a giant shoe tongue, but it just broke. "To you I say no!"

"Well, what about the windows?"

"ONWARDS TO FREEDOM OF NOTDYINGNESS!" Dimo pulled out a rocket and launched it at the windows, only for it to bounce off! "The sandwich of windows is having the making of extra hard cheese!"

"Crap! We're in trouble!"

With Gundar and Tack...

Carrying Tack over his shoulder, Gundar ran to the base of the tower, where sirens were wailing at the top. "Shit!" The old man cursed. "Those dumb kiddos!"

"Gundar-san!" Gundar turned to see none other then Sarah rush towards him.

"Oh, it's you! Looks like the kiddo managed to save you. AND HAVE YOU NO RESPECT FOR THE ELDERLY!?"

Sarah panted heavily as she reached him before looking at Tack. "Tack..."

"He's gonna be fine, tough one he is." Gundar turned his gaze to the tower. "But we gotta problem, looks like someone's trapped in the tower! And it's about to explode!"

"Explode!?" Sarah repeated fearfully.

"Yeah, whoever's up there is in danger!"

"Danger!?" Sarah looked up at the tower, pausing for a while before nodding in determination. "I have an idea!"

With Annabel and Dimo...

"Having the hurrying, SomewhatImportantling!" Dimo shrieked.

"I AM hurrying!" She roared back.

CRASH!

The two jumped as a giant hand suddenly smashed through the windows. "EHHHHHH!?" They both face-faulted.

"O-Oops, I think I punched too hard..." A familiar voice spoke.

"Wait...SARAH!?" Annabel shouted in shock as a giant sized Sarah looked in the newly made hole.

"Annabel! Dimo! I-I'm so glad your okay!" She squealed, looking on the edge of tears. "I-I came to rescue you!"

"Impeccable your timing isness! Come, SomewhatImportantling!" Dimo announced as he hopped onto Sarah's giant shoulder.

Annabel just continued to gawk even as she hopped on. "This tower's still gonna blow though!" She said as she finally snapped out of it.

"I can take care of it!...I...think..." Sarah said as she grabbbed hold of the top of the tower, pulling on it with giantess strength until the topbwas torn off, she then tossed it far out into the ocean where it safely exploded out of the reach of the fleet.

"YAHOOOOO!" Everyone cheered as Sarah shrank back to her original size.

"Thank you for helping us, Sarah." Annabel thanked her.

"You are having the savness of our pig!" Dimo grinned.

Sarah's whole face turned red from the praise. "Th-Thank y-y-you..."

Gundar nodded. "Yeah, good job saving them from being turned into little bloody pieces. Now it's all up to kiddo..."

With Me...

"Raaaaaaah!" I shouted as I punched Kobata, who blocked with his arms, I then pulled back my other arm.

"Counter Speed!" He dashed away and started running around me!

'Damn it!' I thought. 'He's surpassing Soru speed! How can I-?' Suddenly a vision flashed through my mind, it saw him charging at me from...'He's going to attack from behind!'

"Dream Dream...!" I swung my whole arm around as my hand morphed, it stretched behind him and I felt it smash into Kobata's face. "...Hammer!" I cried as the force sent Kobata flying into the wall.

He stood up clutching his head in pain. "Damnit! How could you have predicted that!?...Unless you used-"

"Sleep Dust!" I spat a concentrated shot at him, which he narrowly avoided.

"Curse you!" Kobata shouted as he fired the cannons again.

I instantly thought of something that could help me out of this sticky situation, you'll get that now: "Dream Dream Glue!" Multicoloured glue shot out of my body and grabbed the cannonballs, allowing me to toss them into the air.

"Yoooou!" Kobata dashed at me, and I had to block both a punch and a kick. "Sleep Touch!" His eyes widenedbefore they lazily closed. "Dream Dream...X Bash!" I smashed my arms into him in an 'X' formation, throwing him back into the cannonballs that just fell down.

As I peered into the smoke though I saw his body glowing orange. "That hurt, you little prick." Kobata spat. "Counter Wave!" He realesed an orange pulse of energy towards me!

"Soru!" I avoided the attack and dashed behind him. "Dream Dream Twin Tension Shot!" I smashed both my fists into him, but his body glowed orange as I pumped energy into the blows.

"Counter Wave!" I took a diving leap to avoid the next one, I practically felt it graze me as I just barely dodged.

"Your really beginning to piss me off, Nightmare." Kobata hissed. "How about this!?"

I suddenly had another vision, this time of my feet getting impaled by spikes! "Geppo!" I jumped into and remained in the air as spikes rose out of the ground, Kobata just rose with them as he glowed orange.

'Am I really using Observation Haki?' I thought in disbelief.

"Counter Speed!" Koabata was abruptly above me! "Counter Shock!"

"Dream Dream Shield!" As my hands morphed into a shield my body violently trembled from the strain of keeping up Geppo and my shield.

"No matter what you do you cannot win! I have the greatest Devil Fruit ever!" Kobata shouted.

My eyes narrowed. "I've been..." I threw him downwards into the floor. "Proving that wrong this whole battle!" I sucked in as much air as I possibly could. "Sleep Dust!" I breathed the rainbow powder all over the entire battlefield, sending Kobata to sleep once again.

I landed in front of him and stretched my arm back. "Dream Dream...Drill!" My hand transformed into a drill and I drove it into his stomach.

"Yaaaaaah!" Kobata screamed as his eyes and tongue shot out of his sockets and mouth at impossible lengths before he was smashed into the wall

I panted heavily as Kobata once again stood up out of the smoke, though he had a small amount of blood dribbling down his chin. "How dare you make a fool out of me..." He then drew a long dagger out. "Counter Body!" His body started glowing and he repeatedly stabbed himself, though it didn't puncture the skin, his body registered it.

I couldn't let him charge up so much. "Dream Dream Rope!" My arm became spindly as I stretched it forward and wrapped it around one of Kobata's hands.

"W-What!? Let go of me!" He demanded.

Instead of that, I flicked my arm up and made him punch himself in the face, and subsequently making him use Counter Shock on himself. He screamed in pain as at least five of his teeth were knocked out from the impact, and he flew around the room until he crashed into the floor.

'...He just won't quit...' I sighed in my head as I saw him get out of the now present crater with zombie-like movements.

"You...you..." Now he really was acting like a zombie as he staggered towards me. "...It's all your fault!" He suddenly gave a sloppy punch, which I easily avoided.

He continued to stagger and punch drunkenly until I uppercutted him in the stomach, then roundhouse kicked him in the head, making him stagger back.

"Urgh...hah...uuuuurrrrggghhh!" He charged at me and I just caught his hand.

"Sleep Touch." He was covered in multicoloured veil. He staggered back for a bit until he slumped, asleep standing up.

"It's time to end this." I stated as I cracked my knuckles. "Dream Dream...Rapid Firrrrrrrrre!"

I began repeatedly pounding his unconcious form, putting all my strength into completely pounding him for everything he's done. Hitting and hitting for I don't know how long, until I finally gave one last smash with both my fists and collapsed back, panting heavily.

"Hah...hah..." I steadily supplied my lungs with oxygen as Daydream faded away. "OWOWOWOWOWOOOOOOW!" I sat up and clutched my badly pounding head, I had used Daydream for quite a while. If only Nami was here...

"Mehehehehehe..." I stopped, and my eyes widened. "...Thank you, Nightmare..."

I stood up and looked over at Kobata in horror, to see he was standing, and glowing! "H-How are you-?" He answered me by showing me his hand, which was badly bleeding and had a knife embedded in it. "You stabbed yourself to stay awake..." I breathed in realisation.

He just chuckled. "I have to admit Nightmare, your strong. With all that damage I absorbed from you, I could take out Whitbeard himself! Mehehehehehe!...And as for YOU, I can tear your whole body apart! So this is your last chance to run! MEEEEEHEHEHEHEHEEEEE!"

I glared at him. "No."

He stopped laughing at that. "...No!? Didn't you here me!? Your body will be blown apart from an attack like this!"

"I don't care." I told him plainly. "I will not run. Too many people are counting on me to defeat you."

"Are you STILL on about my fathers crew, Nightmare!?" He pointed at me. "Let me tell you something! They were relics! Old men with forgotten pasts whose bones cracked from sitting down! Worthless dinosaurs! This era belongs to us! The new generation! And those fossils who think they can take it away from us should just crawl back under their rock!"

My eyes widened in anger.

Flashback

I selintly crept into the room, looking around the abandoned closet. 'I hope Oren doesn't catch me in here...' I thought as I looked along the shelves. My eyes eventually fell on a weird looking tribal mask, half was white and half was red, and it looked like a pumpkin face with its jagged eyes and mouth, it also had three purple spikes coming out the top of it. 'What's this thing?'

"I thought I'd find you in here."

I screamed as I turned to see Oren standing in the doorway, "O-Oren! I-I wasn't-I mean I-I-I was just-"

He raised a hand and I clamped up. He walked over and picked up the mask, looking at it. "I missed wearing this thing..." He said as he hung it around his waist.

"Um...Oren?" I had to be careful here. "What is that mask?"

He looked at me and I thought I was gonna get a punch on the head, but he just sighed. "My position as a Vice-Admiral was actually a demotion."

"...Huh?" Was all I could say, Oren's bluntness still took me by surprise.

"It was due to age. I was previously the leader, and strongest member, of CP-0."

"CP...0...?" I repeated.

"I'll tell you about them when your older." He stated. "Now come on, this room isn't for children." So I obediently followed him out of the room."

XxxSummitxWarxxx

I was sitting in Marcus' room as hetold me another amazing story about his adventures on the Grand Line, happily nibbling on a cookie.

"So there me and my crew were, caught in a thunderous storm being blown up by cannon fire." He told me with wild hand gestures. "Eventually though, we managed to take them down, burned their ship and they started to sink...but then I realised something."

"What? What!? WHAT!?" I pestered him, unable to contain my excitement.

"Some of my nakama were still unconscious on that ship." I gasped. "So you know what I did?" I shook my head. "I jumped staight through a cannonball explosion to go and bring 'em back, and I did in the end. Unfortunately for me I'd suffered a lot of damage, almost died, in a coma for a week."

"But-But if you were gonna get hurt so bad, why'd you do it?" I asked.

"Why? Because me nakama were in danger! No other reason." He smiled at me. "Out on the ocean, your nakama are your family. And I would sell my soul to the devil to keep them safe."

"Wooooow!" I grinned. "That's so cool! Marcus! I wanna have nakama and protect them too!"

He chuckled before ruffling my hair. "Your a good kid Ellix, but don't just throw your life away, your nakama will still need you as well."

I crossed my arms in confusion. "Why would they need me?"

He held his hand to his chest. "Because you are a part of them. And when they lose it, it hurts, and you don't want to hurt them, do you?"

"No..." I shook my head. "...Marcus?...Are me and you nakama...?"

He smiled again. "...Of course we are."

Flashback End

I clenched my fists. "Relics? Dinosaurs? Fossils? You know nothing!"

"What!?" He demanded angrily.

"The people of the previous era...have much more experience and knowledge then we right now could ever understand! There are 'relics' much stonger then us! There are 'dinosaurs' who have charted maps for us! 'Fossils' who have carved there names in history!" I looked him dead in the eyes. "This era is for everyone! No matter how old they are! Gundar's nakama may have been old...but their hopes burned brighter then anyone YOU ever recruited!"

"How dare you insult me!?" Kobata screamed. "Gundar could never become as great as I am! I AM THE STRONGEST-"

"SHUT UP!" I cut him off. "Quit saying your the strongest! The oceans are vast and huge! Places people have yet to explore! Even if someone could be called the strongest, it's most likely someone even stonger will appear! And it's not just as simple as that! People can surpass you in strength! Knowledge! Strategy! Speed! Flexibility! SOMEONE WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER THEN YOU!"

I glared at him with full anger. "The only people who don't belong in this era...are people like YOU Kobata! Who delude themselves with false strength, AND CRUSH THE DREAMS OF WHOEVER THEY WANT! PEOPLE LIKE THAT...ARE JUST BLIND RETARDS!"

Kobata's eyes shook with rage. "How DARE YOU YOU LITTLE SHIT!?" He dashed towards me and raised his fist. "I WILL SHOW YOU I'M THE STRONGEST! BY SENDING YOU TO HELL WITH THOSE PITIFUL MEN AND THAT WHORE OF A WOMAN!"

I narrowed my eyes as he drew closer and closer...

"COUNTER SHOOOOOOCK!"

My eyes shook violently in my head as the blow smashed into me, blood spurted from my mouth as I was pushed back, but that was it.

Kobata stared in shock. "Im...Impossible! How can you still be standing!? That should've torn your body to shreds!"

"...Kami-E...Slime..." My whole body had caved in, and absorbed most of the impact. "Your blow may have been stronger Kobata, but I beat you in terms of strategy!"

He facefaulted as I pulled both my arms back. "This next technique...was taught to me by a 'relic'...a man who was once the leader of CP-0! And combined with that attack I absorbed...It'll hit you...FOUR TIMES AS STRONG!"

Kobata staggered back. "No! I won't let you! Counter Body!" He began glowing again.

I stood my ground as I readied myself. "Rokushiki Ogi..." I dashed forward with Soru. "Shigan...!"

"F-Fool! You'll just give me more strength! It's over! You've lost!"

"FORTYYYYYYYYY!" Using a combination of Shigan and the absorbed energy, I stabbed him with all ten of my fingers, but with the strength of forty, obliterating his Counter Body.

He coughed up a whole stomachful of blood as he was sent crashing through the wall, being thrown so far back he smashed into the tower, making the whole thing crack and fall apart, evidently crushing him.

I panted heavily until the smoke faded from my fingers. "...There you go Gundar..." I then collapsed and fell asleep.

And that's it! Ellix has finally defeated Kobata! He's sleeping from his fight, so better not wake him up.

By the way, it was my birthday 10th August! I got One Piece Unlimited World Red! Currently questing. By the way, to celebrate my birthday I did a one-shot, 'Ellix vs Hanta', check it out if you have the time.

By the way, I was kinda wondering if anyone would be willing to draw Ellix or Nightmare Ellix? I know it sounds selfish but I'd really like to see how people picture him! Plus I suck at drawing.

Ellix is kinda tall, with dark brown neatly combed hair and blue eyes, and as Luffy points out he is pretty skinny. He's currently wearing a plain grey short sleeved shirt with a red sash around his waist and white shorts, all of which are very tattered and torn. But if you want to draw him in something else (a.k.a his Strong World formal attire) just check the respective story/one-shot/flashback.

Nightmare Ellix is generally the same...okay not really. He has spiky purple tinted hair, completely red eyes and pointed teeth set into his trademark murderous grin. He has very long shadowy arms and claws, and a ghostly purple wisp pinned to the ground for legs. His whole torso is just completely black if anyone is interested.

Right, that's done, reviews!

To Zusenheim:...Oh. I thought that's how you laughed!

To Thief-chan: Don't worry Eri-chan, I share that fea-SPIDER! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

To XJustified: You said it.

To Exile037: TECHNICALLY it wasn't confirmed as Haki. (Little hint for you guys there.)

To RealEvanSG: DOUBLE REVIEW! And yes, Ellix did beat Kobata, pretty hard too.

And that's it from me! Thank you for reading! Reviews are always appreciated!

Ellix: Nakama!

Oh SURE, you wake up for THAT!
