Hi! Back from my little break, I enjoyed it finished up Sonic Fronteirs, Pokemon and got further in Ragnarok.
It was a nice break but I'm ready to have another go at this.
Hope you guys enjoy this chapter.
Atlas's Finest
Kron looked at the five gathered in front of him each wielding something different in their arsenal.
"Last chance, come with us, now." Clover wanted to try to resort to this peacefully as he's not sure how they'll do against this boy and his unknown semblance.
The Saiyan looked around him and ignored the demand, he seemed focused on their appearances.
Matching outfits, check.
"Question" Kron started getting their attention. "What is your team called?"
Clover glanced at his teammates, he can tell that they each could use the time to plan an attack.
"We are the Ace Operatives." The leader explained. "The best huntsmen in Atlas."
Fancy name check.
"So you're the most prestigious elite of Atlas?"
The team kept their guard up ready to attack.
"Yes, we are." Clover replied not sure why he's asking that.
Best of the elite check.
They checked all the boxes which means he had to let them do something to have some fun with them.
Kron then waved his arms. "Alright, before we start, I'll give you time to get it over with, hurry up."
Clover looked confused and look around at his group who seemed just as confused.
"Hurry with what?"
Behind his berringel mask the Saiyan looked annoyed.
"What are you waiting for?" Kron asked. "Hurry and do your thing, I'll wait." He wanted to get the weird part over with so he can have his fun.
Taking more time to plan things out Clover decided to drag this out a bit.
"I'm sorry, but what could you be talking about?"
"What? You know don't you?" The Saiyan asked genuinely confused. "Ok, you're the best of the elite right? Atlas's top men?"
"Yes?" He said that already.
"And there's five of you, and you wear matching outfits right?" Kron asked like it was all he needed to say.
The other operatives couldn't tell where he was getting at.
"Yes" Clover replied confused by the boy's yamerring, but he and his team were using it to eye for an attack.
"Then hurry and pose already get that stuff out of your system and fight me."
"Excuse me?" The leader asked.
The one with a mohawk looked around. "Pose?"
Kron was confused why they were asking that.
"Pardon" The monk with the third eye tattoo spoke. "What do you mean? We do not pose."
"You don't?" Kron asked.
"No" He replied. "Why would you think that?"
Kron said nothing for a few seconds and remembered something back home.
13 years ago on Planet Vegeta
A year before Kron would leave Planet Vegeta, he watched something on a T.V. when he was out of the house one day.
It was something that caught his attention as a young child.
"Hello kids!" An alien that was purple and had black horns with Frieza force armor on spoke. "It's me Captain Ginyu and this is the Ginyu Force Show!"
Four year old Kron watched the T.V. laughing as they pose.
"Remember kids, the most elite of warriors will pose before doing battle!"
"It's true!" A man with red skin and white long hair spoke in an accent. "Even on other planets with no space travel, we found civilizations with their own military, and their best elite always posed!"
"Of course!" A blue one with red eyes spoke. "Regardless of power levels, posing is a true art of the elite!"
"Very well put Jeice and Burter!" Ginyu said and turned to the camera. "So there you see? Whenever you confront a team of elites, and if they have a special name, wear matching outfits always be ready to see a pose! If you want to prove the Frieza Force's superiority, then allow them to pose so they can show their true strength. Of course, none can be as impressive as ours!"
The Ginyu Force then posed, most would find them ridiculous.
But simple children are entertained at the sight of them.
Kron looked happy to see them pose with his tail swaying around.
Maybe one day he can become an elite, if he does he'll do a really awesome pose in a team of five!
The born Saiyan elite children who seen the show we're starting to pose and it became embarrassing for them to represent their army.
So, King Vegeta made sure that the Ginyu Force Show never aired on the Saiyan's planet ever again.
Luckily the king made sure it didn't air before his young son Prince Vegeta ever saw it.
Kron came back to reality and thought how foolish he was to listen to that damn show! He thought since they were stronger than any Saiyan even the king that what they said was true!
He truly thought that every team of elites had some sort of pose to increase their power. Those damn bastards!
Once he got focused he actually tried to answer the skinny ace op's question.
"Well that's because, I thought" Kron stopped and continued speaking. "I was told that-" He was kept mumbling trying to explain but then he sighed. "Never mind! Anyway, no I won't be going anywhere with you! So just come at me!"
Clover made a light glance two members of his team.
Harriet ran forward intent on catching the 'Faunus' off guard with her speed.
Once she was with in range she threw a punch aimed for his head.
And Kron tilted his head avoiding the strike.
Harriet's eyes widened, she missed!
"So, you're the fast one." Kron noted.
The young woman growled and threw another super fast punch.
But Kron with some effort tilted his head making her miss and started running backwards.
Harriet growled and ran forward throwing a barrage of punches at every vulnerable spot she could see at super speed.
The Saiyan swiftly avoided all of her punches while running backwards through the museum faster than the rest of Ace Operatives can see. All they see is two blurs running all over the place.
Clover never thought that anyone could be faster than Harriet, still they were the Ace Operatives, Atlas's finest. He turned to his remaining team around him.
They all nodded as if knowing what to do.
Each of them scattered around the main area of the museum.
The mohawk woman was stunned while she was using her semblance to the fullest. This was unreal. She's heard that this boy's mysterious semblance provided a variety of abilities like the Schnee Glyphs. But it shouldn't provide greater speed compared to speed type semblances!
Kron chuckled and started talking between dodging her attacks.
"How about you and I have a race instead of a fight." He moved to the side to avoid a punch to his gut and continued. "Seems to be the only way I can have fun with you!" He said as he ducked under a punch.
Harriet growled, she's a hothead, but she's also a professional, she knew better than to just continue challenging him herself.
The speedster stopped as the two were back in the main area of the museum.
Kron stopped as well wondering why she did.
Then before he could contemplate it further yellow aura tentacles wrapped around him.
The Saiyan glanced up to see where they were coming from.
It was the monk looking one standing on a model of an Atlesian Airship with his aura tentacles out wrapped around him.
"Keep a tight grip on him Vine!" Harriet yelled.
Kron was about to break free from his prison but then he heard running from behind, and it wasn't Harriet.
"Rahh!" The large hammer wielding woman slammed her hammer into the side of the trapped Kron's head.
The Saiyan was hit from behind and it made him stagger to the side a couple steps with him still trapped in the aura arms.
Harriet ran forward and threw several fast punches to his head. Then she quickly stepped back and brushed her thumb against her nose as if satisfied with her handiwork.
The large hammer wielding woman then swung her hammer on top of his head. "Rah!"
Kron wasn't knocked out, immediately he pulled his arms breaking the hold of Vine's semblance.
Vine looked shocked as his semblance was being resisted so easily.
Just in time the Saiyan pulled away from the grip of the huntsman and sees the woman bringing her hammer down towards his face.
Kron immediately lifted his hand to catch the hammer by it's flat end.
The ground beneath him cracked from the impact of the large woman.
"Nice amount of force." He noted as he grabbed the hammer by it's grip with one hand.
Elm screamed as she tried to pull her hammer back but the Saiyan's grip was too strong. It was shocking that this man who was almost a foot shorter than her, was strong enough to make her struggle.
From the otherside Harriet threw ran and threw fast punches at the Saiyan while he was using one arm.
But to her horror Kron used his other arm to block every single punch.
The Saiyan then kicked straight into Harriet's abdomen faster than she could see launching her several feet away. He then turned towards the woman who was fighting to get her hammer back.
"Your the strong one." Kron noted how this behemoth woman had more strength than the usual huntsmen. "Not bad, I'm actually trying with one hand."
The large woman threw a punch across Kron's face.
She really was the strong one, he felt that.
Elm then headbut the 'faunus' in an attempt to make him let go.
Kron chuckled as he threw a punch of his own across her face.
Thanks to her semblance she stayed in place but blood was leaving her mouth, clearly she took more than damage then he did.
The Saiyan chuckled still gripping the hammer.
Elm growled but then grinned as she pressed a button on the handle.
Her hammer's head opened showing missiles.
The Saiyan glanced at that. "Oh right, every weapon is-"
The missiles launched and actually forced Kron to let go.
Vine's aura arms wrapped around Elm and pulled her back.
Just in time for the four missiles to hit Kron up close causing an explosion.
Elm stood her ground staring at the smoke, she glanced over at where he kicked Harriet. She must still be out right now. She glared at the smoke ready.
"Also a gun." He said finishing his sentence and walked through the smoke, his cloak now had tears and some of his top was ruined by the missles.
From the side Marrow tossed his weapon, a boomerang at Kron.
The Saiyan glanced and caught the weapon.
And using this as a distraction Elm ran forward with her hammer rose and swung down.
Kron dropped the boomerang and jumped back as the hammer missed and made a huge crack in the ground.
While in the air familiar yellow energy arms started to ensnare them.
But not wanting to be tied up again. Kron floated back and grabbed an aura tentacle and pulled.
This pulled the unfortunate Vine towards him.
Kron was about to kick him in the face while he was getting close.
Just then a blur came and grabbed Vine as he got closer to a kick, and pulled him back.
The Saiyan saw that it was the speedster, guess she wasn't knocked out yet.
Elm ran forward and swung her hammer an attempt to knock him out by surprise.
Unfortunately Kron saw it coming and blocked with his forearm. He then brought his hands out to to try to push her, but couldn't even though he was clearly stronger. He glanced down to see what looked like energy around her feet, teahtering her to the ground.
A semblance that allows her to stay her ground. Not impressive but it seems useful.
The large woman then pulled back her hammer and swung again.
The Saiyan rose his arm to block it again.
Elm through a punch, but he blocked it.
Kron then threw a straight punch into the woman's face.
The woman's head got knocked back from the force of his punch, her semblance kept her from going back but she lost her grip of her hammer.
The Scourge of Anima then caught her hammer by the handle. He never used a weapon before. Kron rose the hammer and slammed it down.
But before the hammer could land his hands became ensnared by some strong cable forcing him to let go of the hammer.
Kron growled as he glanced behind him to see their leader.
Clover looked at the masked warrior and smiled as he pulled in an attempt to make Kron fall back.
The Saiyan was confident he couldn't make him fall but as he tried to stand his ground he slipped and fell on his back.
'What?' That made no sense, he was stronger, how did he slip?
Kron glanced to his left and sees a wet floor sign.
Huh. Lucky break for this guy. He didn't even see it there.
Elm immediately grabbed her hammer, at her feet her Root semblance appeared to keep her from slipping on the wet floor. She slammed Timber down aiming for Kron's masked face.
But the Saiyan rose his feet and blocked the hammer with the bottom of his boots.
With a double kick he made the large woman kneel and the Saiyan floated to avoid the slippery floor and pulled his arms to break the leader's weapon.
As he did he looked down at Clover who had a serious face, and he focused on his weapon.
"A fishing rod?" Kron questioned. "Really?" There were some weird weapons on this planet, he's seen a weaponized microphone, cooking pan, and a broom. But never something as ridiculous as a fishing rod.
Clover said nothing but smiled as if he wasn't in danger. "Hey it stopped you didn't it?"
That made Kron angry. He dashed down towards him at quicker speed than he can react.
"Stay!"
Just before his fist could reach Clover's face Kron stopped in midair.
Clover sighed as he backed away and observed the frozen 'Monkey Faunus'. He glanced at Marrow who was pointing at their opponent and nodded.
Elm roared as she ran towards the vulnerable Saiyan and swung her hammer into Kron's face and sent him flying.
Once the Saiyan was sent flying, behind his mask he was surprised. 'What?!" One second he was attacking then he was in the air.
Before he could contemplate further he hit a model of an Atlesian Colossus in the center then he fell down with it landing on top of him.
Marrow looked concerned. "Shouldn't we try to minimize any damage to the museum?"
"Worry about that later!" Elm shouted in her accent. "He's too dangerous to worry over some old trinkets"
The dog Faunus still looked uneasy.
"I guess you're right Elm."
Just then the model of the colossus was being stood up with Kron floating as he put his arm up. Once it stood up right he turned to the Ace Operatives.
"Listen to your dog, this museum has the story of your people it's important to preserve it." He meant it too, this was an enjoyable place save for the bias White Fang exhibit.
Offended by the insult even by a fellow 'Faunus' Marrow pressed aimed his rifle at the Saiyan and pulled the trigger firing many Dust bullets.
All of which Kron dodged more for fun than necessity. And he rose his hands with ten Ki orbs at his finger tips. The grew and floated behind him.
Moving all his fingers in different direction. He yelled. "Guided Swarm!"
The ten energy orbs then flew in different directions two of each aimed at one of the Ace Operatives.
Harriet ran past two that hit the ground.
Vine brought his energy arms to surround himself and struggled to block the two shots aimed at him.
Elm avoided one attack but was hit in the stomach by the other making her Aura crack and she growled.
Clover sees two headed for his way and just ran toward them and jumped in between them one above his head the other below. And as if he had luck on his side he rolled and made it as the two energy shots hit the wall behind him.
Marrow wasn't going to be as fortunate as the two Ki orbs were inches away from him.
But a line came at his leg and he was pulled as the two energy shots hit the ground he was standing on.
Though as he was being dragged he dropped his weapon on the ground, though at least he was pulled to safety.
The dog Faunus glanced up to see Clover holding out his hand to him.
Marrow grabbed his hand and was pulled up. "Thank you sir!"
His leader nodded not taking his eyes off of the Scourge of Anima floating above them.
Kron looked down at each of them. "Very good, all of you." He laughed. "Usually no one escapes that attack but two of you did and others that didn't." He looked at Vine with his energy arms out and down at Elm glaring up at him with burn marks at her abdomen. "Aren't knocked out, you really are the strongest team of huntsmen I've ever fought."
That was true. Ever since he started fighting huntsmen teams he never had to do much effort, in fact he had to hold back quite a bit against them. But these guys he actually had to try. Sure it wasn't as fun as Raven but still these five were quite impressive.
Then he glanced down at Clover. "And you that was great! You just ran at my attacks and jumped in between them!" He then focused on Marrow and laughed. "And you even saved your precious mutt, impressive hahaha!"
Marrow glared at him for these remarks.
"Marrow"
He looked to his leader.
"Focus, try to avoid engaging, stay of line of his sight and freeze him when he's open." He explained with a serious face. "You're our best chance to take him out."
Being the trained soldier, the Dog Faunus nodded as Clover walked forward.
Vine jumped down from a platform and landed on the face of Elm's hammer.
She then swung with all her might to send Vine flying at Kron with great speed with his Aura arms out in fists aimed for punching him.
But Kron merely lifted on arm and blocked the punch with one hand. He rolled his eyes, what did this monk expect.
Then Vine lifted his feet and out came more Aura appendages to kick Kron in the chest.
The Saiyan was almost caught of guard and crossed block his chest.
"So, I guess your the quiet one huh?"
Vine said nothing as he landed on top of a model of an airship.
Kron then dashed towards him.
"Stay!"
He froze in the air close to striking the monk of the team.
Vine then jumped in the air and ensnared him in his Aura arms and tossed him on the ground.
Kron was conscious when he hit the ground, once again confused how he ended up on his back.
The Saiyan growled and stood up to aim his hand at the monk
Before he could fire a Ki blast, something unexpected happened.
Clover had used Kingfisher to hook to the ceiling and swung to kick the Scourge of Anima on the back of the head.
And to his horror it didn't seem to make him budge only it stopped him from firing at Vine.
Kron glanced up and grabbed Clover's leg and tossed him aside.
The leader of the Ace Ops hit a display that looked like a throne room, with jewelry surrounding it.
Clover put his hand in his face, this kid was way more than their intel suggested. He glanced up to see the Saiyan walking towards him.
But to Clover's luck the 'Faunus' was distracted.
Kron noticed the Crown of Mantle spinning and about to fall off it's display and possibly break.
He immediately reached out his hand and caught the ancient jewelry before it hit the ground.
The Saiyan sighed and carefully placed the crown back on its display.
And he immediately turned back to see Clover not in the throne display, and turned to see that Harriet was helping him up still hurt from his attack, but able to fight.
Four of the Ace Operatives were there only the dog Faunus was missing.
Before he could wonder where the dog Faunus was hiding, Harriet ran towards Kron intent on beating him down.
"Tch" Didn't she learn? He was faster than her.
"Stay!"
Just before Kron could make a move he was frozen in place.
Harriet smiled as she grabbed Kron's tail and ran forward dragging him by his tail.
Just a second later Kron regained consciousness and realized that somehow Harriet had grabbed his tail and was dragging him back to his team.
The Saiyan once again became conscious.
"What the hell!" He yelled as he was about to free his tail from her.
Before he could Harriet let go and ducked.
Elm slammed her hammer across as if back as if making a home run with Kron as the ball.
Kron again was sent flying again he did his best to catch himself mid air.
"Stay!"
And the Saiyan was frozen mid-air once again.
Clover sees the frozen Saiyan and turned towards Harriet and Elm. This was it, his team were on their last legs, they needed to finish this now.
Elm looked towards Harriet and brought her hammer up as if she was going to swing it again.
Harriet then grabbed the larger woman's waist and lifted her off the ground thanks to the strength of her exoskeleton suit. She then ran back carrying her with her super speed out of the building.
Clover turned to Marrow who was still aiming his fingers at Kron to keep him frozen.
The leader of the Ace Ops looked over at the other side of the frozen Scourge to see his teammate Vine standing on the other side.
He nodded as if knowing what Clover had in mind.
They had to time this right. If this won't work who knows what will.
Outside of the building a blur can be seen going out of the musueam.
The blur was of course Harriet holding Elm up by her abdomen.
"This boy is a lot stronger than we expected!" Elm yelled as Harriet ran.
The mohawked woman nodded.
"Yeah, but remember he's fighting alone! Be ready!"
Elm nodded as Harriet kept running.
Harriet immediately did a U-turn and dashed back towards the museum to gain some much needed momentum.
She was building up more and more speed.
And Elm, was strong enough to endure the speed as she kept hold of her hammer up ready to swing again.
After a few seconds both Clover and Vine decided that the time was now.
Clover swung his Kingfisher to wrap around Kron's legs.
While Vine brought his arms to ensnare Kron's arms.
The duo then swung with all their might.
Their combined might had propelled Kron once again sending him flying forward.
And again Kron seemed had been freed from Marrow's semblance. "Again! How are you-"
Before he could finish that sentence a familiar blur came back into the building.
Harriet ran towards Kron carrying Elm.
"Swing now!" Harriet yelled.
Elm roared as she swung her hammer with all her might combined with the speed Harriet built up.
And her hammer slammed into Kron's chest.
Kron couldn't react at all as he was hit and sent flying again.
This time he hit through a model of an Airship, a model of the SDC, the statue of Nicholas Schnee and crashed into a model of a Dust mine.
And crashed through the wall of the museum, the impact shook the whole building.
Once that was done Harriet hit the ground and put a fist to the ground to keep herself from falling.
Elm reached down to try to help her up.
But the confident speedster rose an arm and looked at where they had hit Kron. They could see him on the ground just out of the whole they created with their combined attack.
Harriet brushed her thumb against her nose and smiled. She had to tear through her leg muscles but they did it, they knocked him out!
"He really was everything they told us and more." Vine said as he walked to the rest of his teammates. "This young man was our greatest challenge."
Clover nodded in agreement and smiled to Marrow.
"Great work Marrow, you really pulled through for us."
Being the rookie of the group, the young man was flustered by the praise and his tail started wagging.
"Thank you sir!"
Harriet rolled her eyes as she walked to him and playfully punched him which did actually hurt him.
"Don't get a big head rookie."
As the dog Faunus rubbed his shoulder he chuckled.
"I'll check on the target." Clover said and looked to the monk. "Vine, come with me and help secure him, the rest of you be ready to leave."
"Sir!" All saluted their leader as he walked towards the Scourge of Anima with Vine at his side.
Ironwood was in his office watching the screen.
It was from the security cameras of the museum being linked to him.
Relief washed over him.
That combined attack had to have worked.
The combined speed of Harriet and strength of Elm would've put at least a torn apart a colossus.
Perhaps there was no need for their most valuable player to take part.
Good, he still hadn't told Ozpin a thing about the new addition to their order. And now looks like he won't have to, for now.
And now the boy can be locked up and taken in for questioning.
Just when he thought that he sees something on the screen.
He felt as though it was impossible, this boy. He truly was a threat!
He pressed a button.
"Specialist Schnee" Ironwood spoke. "Be prepared to act on my mark!"
If only they had more time to perfect her powers for teamwork! Then this would've been over.
"Yes, general." Winter's voice replied.
Their trump card will win. She has to.
Harriet and Elm were starting to walk out of the museum.
The mohawked woman looked at Marrow walking a different direction.
"Marrow! Come on we're going!"
"One sec, I just need to get Fetch first."
Just as he turned around he sees a horrifying sight.
"It's not over!" Clover yelled to the group with Vine at his side. "The target isn't here he-" He stopped when he sees something horrifying.
In the middle of the museum was the Scourge of Anima standing tall holding his chest.
He was chuckling.
"Congratulations, you're the first team to actually hurt me!" Kron shouted, not angry but rather excited. "And without some cheap semblance to!" He said thinking of Dr. Turquoise's Pain Share semblance.
Harriet grit her teeth angrily and dashed towards her.
Elm sees her and yells.
"Wait not yet!"
The speedster didn't respond. He was hurt, there's no way he wasn't one hit away from being knocked out! One quick attack and he's done.
As she sped for him Marrow rose his finger.
Kron quickly dashed towards Marrow at faster speeds than Harriet.
"Stay!"
And just as he spoke Kron grabbed his hand forcing him to point at Harriet.
Just as Kron had predicted Harriet stopped just one foot away from him.
Marrow looked horrified as his semblance was used against his teammate. He tried to curl his finger but Kron forced his hand in a position to keep his finger pointing.
Kron looked at Harriet and back at Marrow.
"So that's what's been going on." He said thinking of the times he was in the middle of attacking and was struck out of nowhere. He looked back at Marrow. "You're the one with the weird power."
The Dog Faunus wasn't listening and tried to pull his hand free but to no avail forcing Harriet to stay frozen.
He lifted his other hand and pointed at Kron.
The Saiyan grabbed his other hand to prevent him from trying his semblance on him.
With both hands occupied that left him open to attack.
"Rahh!" Elm swung her hammer aimed for Kron's head as his hands were occupied.
Without much effort Kron lifted his leg to kick the hammer up and kicked as hard as he could into Elm's abdomen forcing her several feet away.
She crashed into a wall, her brown aura flickered until it was destroyed from a few simple attacks the strong arm of the team had already lost consciousness.
"Elm!"
Kron focused on Marrow. "Also, Fetch? Your weapon's name is Fetch?" He looked at the boomerang and laughed. "No wonder Faunus are oppressed! You make it too easy!" He laughed hard.
Clover ran forward and swung Kingfisher in an attempt to wrap around Kron's arm.
But the Saiyan saw it coming and kicked Elm's hammer toward the huntsman.
It was too quick for Clover to react as he got hit in the face with the hammer, his Aura flickering and he grabbed his head in pain.
Marrow tried to break free from his grip he didn't even think about the strange sentence he said.
The Saiyan looked over at the frozen Harriet and dragged Marrow while still forcing his finger to point at Harriet to keep her in place. He then brought his leg in front of Harriet's legs.
Kron then looked at Marrow who was still struggling to break free and still held his hands.
*CRUNCH!*
The sound of a loud crushing noise echoed throughout the museum.
Harriet was free from Marrow's semblance and ran tripping over Kron's extended leg and hitting painfully against the wall.
Kron let go of Marrow.
The Dog Faunus walked back and looked at his fingers, they were all mangled pointing in directions they shouldn't, he couldn't even move his hands, he fell on his knees.
"Ahhhh!"
The Saiyan looked down at his enemy.
He guessed that he needed his fingers to activate his semblance.
Quite the limitation if that were the case, all he had to do was break his fingers and his power is unusable.
"Now be a good boy" He him by his neck and lifted him up. "And stay!"
He then slammed him into the ground making cracks in the ground, his blue aura was shattered.
From behind Vine had unleashed his aura arms, this time they grew sharp becoming claws and tried to surround Kron.
Kron then grabbed the long appendages of Vine and in his under arms.
Then a familiar string wrapped around his leg.
Kron glanced to see Clover who got up and was pulling trying to make him fall again.
But this time the Saiyan was ready and floated up while pulling his leg.
This forced the huntsman to let go of Kingfisher.
The Saiyan then flung Vine's Aura arms and slammed him on top of Clover forcing the two to form a crack in the ground.
Vine's light blue Aura appeared and shattered, he too was done.
Harriet got up and looked to see three members down, Clover barely getting up from underneath Vine. She was about to try to sneak attack.
But at greater speed Kron appeared in front of her and punched a quick strike to her gut.
"Congrats, you're the third fastest on Remnant!" He said thinking of himself and Raven.
Harriet groaned from the pain and her eyes rolled in the back of her head. She fell over unconscious.
Kron looked around and at the leader who was just getting up.
Clover did his best to hide his distraught. Never in his career, has he seen anything like this. For the first time, his team failed. Not against some powerful Grimm, a world renown criminal, or an army of rogue huntsmen.
No, by this kid.
Kron looked over at the stunned Clover.
"Don't think too bad of your men, they did the best they could." The Saiyan said not even in a mocking tone. It almost sounded genuine.
The leader of the Ace Ops looked at Kron unsure what to do. He never thought his semblance could fail him.
Kron appeared front of him and punched him in the stomach.
"Gah!" His green Aura appeared showing damage.
"Your team was funner than expected, I'll be sure to have your weapons in my museum!" He then pulled back his fist and spun kick his head making fall to the ground and his face hit.
His green Aura shattered.
Kron chuckled and looked around.
Guess his fun's over. Oh well, it was a nice vacation.
The Saiyan decided now was a time to take their weapons and leave.
Just then he felt a cold chill in the air. Atlas was always cold but this felt like the temperature had lowered in a few seconds.
Kron's arm was hit by a white beam and was encased in ice. "What!" The Saiyan then jumped before the rest of his body could be covered in ice.
He then broke through the ice and turned to the new adversary came from the entrance of the museum.
"Who are you?" He asked annoyed by the sneak attack.
Standing not far in front of him was a young woman in a similar uniform to the Ace Ops, she had white hair and blue eyes that looked like the portrait of Nicholas Schnee.
She had a serious expression directed at Kron.
And out her eyes was a blue flame like light.
Kron's eyes widened when he noticed the glowing eyes. He's seen something like that before.
"I am specialist Schnee" Winter introduced herself and brought out her rapier to aim at Kron. "And you are to come with me quietly."
Kron didn't listened to what she had said, only focused on the blue light leaking from her eyes.
He starts to see Raven in the woman's place every time he blinked.
That flame glowing from her eyes. It was like Raven's but it was blue instead of red.
The right side of his chest was burning. He reached for that part of his chest and realized. It was his scar. It was acting up like it was reminding him of the day Raven gave it to him. When she struck him with lightning.
His Saiyan blood boiled, more than usual. It was like that day.
When he fought Raven.
Behind his berringel mask, Kron smiled and started chuckling.
Well looks like we get to see how much Kron has improved since the last time he fought a maiden.
The Ace ops did better than most expected I think, they managed to hurt him without a semblance like Pain Share, so that's something.
I debated whether to have Harriet faster than Kron but then I thought at this point he should be stronger than any strength granting semblance so it should make's sense he's faster than any speed semblance.
Been awhile since I had to do a team fight against Kron. The last one I did was Adam, Ghira and Sienna, so I hope this turned out good.
Let me know will you.
Review Responces.
Guest: Interesting prediction, Eclipse will definitely be important, we'll see how long he lasts.
I'm not gonna write Kron sleeping around. Seems unnecessary. Besides women aren't exactly on his priority list, he doesn't think about them, he hasn't thought about them once. He's focused on fighting, revenge, and learning history. Not much else.
I think it's debatable, you can argue that Saiyans might look down on her for cheating for power, they might see it as weak, nothing to do with morality, but he wouldn't stop her as yes he would like a challenge. Also even if your case is true, Cinder can be manipulative she might try to control Kron, like how Raven tried. And history might repeat itself if that were the case.
I'm aware but I appreciate the reminder, I'll keep that in mind for when it's time to commit to a pairing.
Thank u for the trivia.
Epantoja: Yep, at least the worse Kron did was break Marrow's fingers.
Guest: I can see why you think that might happen, only time will tell if your right.
Yep, pretty much. At least it can slow them down.
Shadow-Proclamation8: Every Saiyan vacation needs to have at least one fight lol.
That's a possible way to do it. I'll think about it, I'm just a little worried about doing it to soon you know? If he gets the Wrath state, then that means he'll get 10x his own strength, which would be hard to make an obstacle for him that isn't in space. But rest assured he will get the Wrath Form, I promise that at least, just not sure when yet.
Lelouch of Zero: I'm glad you understand thank you. Good to hear it hope your looking forward to the next chapter. Ironwood's the 'ends justify the means' kinda guy, and I'm sure a lot of people can see his point most of the time. Yep, be ready, Kron's gonna have a good time, he hasn't gotten to fight anything maiden-level for awhile, plus as you say, her semblance might make it more interesting.
ThatSaiyaGuy: I get what you mean. I think the problem was we've been through a journey with RWBY and JNR and we got to know the Ace Ops for a couple episodes. I feel like if the show introduced them earlier more of us could've warmed up to them and understand why their full of themselves if we see them earn more wins. Though I don't know if that would fix it.
Lol now you know why Winter didn't like thinking it. When I decided to make Winter the... maiden, I was struggling because the previous Maiden had to die, and she's on life support, the only reason she died in canon was because Cinder set her loose. But then I realized that if Kron is dressed like a white fang member(His berringel mask) running around and beating huntsmen, Ironwood would have reason to think Kron would invade Atlas sooner or later, with the rest of the White Fang. So I figured he'd 'do what needed to be done' to protect his people.
Yeah, also he's not exactly wrong. Sure Kron isn't the murder happy maniac he was at the start of the story, but he's still just doing what he wants and not caring about consequences. Definitely a good idea to try to have a Maiden defend the city even if the last one had to die.
Interesting prediction, we'll see, for now Tyrian and Hazel still need to finish their, 'harvest' so it'll be a bit before we see them in action.
Lol! Hey man all memes are welcomed here. Maybe so, either of those would come in handy. Another thing Tyrian had more Dust crystals, so who else other than the Doctor has he collected? Also Hazel is still harvesting. Who have they collected and what were they capable of? Scary thought huh?
Lol, well we had to see him use Soul Punisher at least once but yeah a beam clash would've been a cool way to finish it. Thank you and I did.
not a guest: Well you were right that they lost but no permanent injury. Kron likes to leave his opponents alive so they can tell a story on how they got beat by him. Also even more fun he hopes they have no permanent damage and find him for a rematch.
Siralphonzo: Ch.7: Read my response to KingAllen in Ch.10 for an explanation. Don't get what you mean by why not give everyone magic. And thank you for trying my story.
Ch.4: No plans for Z level characters to appear anytime soon so no worries about that.
Bear259: I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the story and enjoy Kron.
Thank you I did enjoy my break and am ready to write again.
I can understand your reasoning, Weiss would be a good choice, she's got the temper to attract Saiyans. I'll definitely consider her when it's time to pick a pairing. Appreciate your thoughts.
Well I'm glad you already like Eclipse, got big plans for him that's all I can say.
Glad to hear that you are enjoying the story and look forward to what I do regaurdless. I hope not to disappoint.
Thank you, hope you had a Merry Christmas and happy new year to.
mattyread: Well not dead, but beaten. Kron's not exactly good right now, so yes, Babidi mind control him.
Whoa, we're a little early for Super Saiyan, he can't even beat a saibaman right now. Remember this is the OG dragon ball part of this long story. Gonna be awhile before we get to super saiyan. Hope you can enjoy it before then.
I'm surprised a good number of you are interested in Eclipse, since right now he's just this human shaped monster that can't fight Cinder. Well rest assured he will be something down the line, hope he won't disappoint.
Alright guys see u in the next chapter.
Have an awesome day! :)
