Closing her fist, Shalltear aimed it in the direction of her opponents, while increasing her speed. Seeing her teleport, only to find herself in front of them, Kid couldn't even react before feeling Shalltear's fist hit his chest. Spitting blood, he hovered backwards, then to through the wall of one of the buildings.
"And one." Shalltear assured, before turning back to Law.
Seeing her, Law only positioned his saber towards her. However, seeing him stand still, Shalltear laughed, while walking towards him.
"You and your friend...did you honestly think you could defeat me with your ridiculous powers?"
"Tsss! Are you stupid or deaf? I already told you that I have no desire to fight you."
"Oh? That's right! It's really too bad for you because..."
Moving at full speed again, she found herself behind Law, before opening her jaws.
"...today will be the day you die."
" SHAMBLES ! "
Closing her jaws, Shalltear was surprised to bite a rock, which had just appeared in front of her, instead of Law. Having taken the place of the rock, the man was behind Shalltear, and had sat cross-legged on a block of concrete.
"You're not very fast." He affirmed, in a calm tone.
Turning back to him, still having the boulder wedged between her teeth, Shalltear ended up using her jaw muscles to pulverize it.
"Don't try to be smart! In front of me, it won't work."
"Are you sure?" Law questioned her, while picking up some small pebbles.
Again, Shalltear rushed towards him. However, instead of biting him, she attempted to hit him with her right fist. Simply smiling, Law simply tossed one of his pebbles into the air, before waiting for Shalltear to be in front of him.
"DIE!" The vampire roared.
" SHAMBLES ! "
Disappearing again, Law found himself behind Shalltear, having changed his place with the rock he had just thrown. Wanting to aim for Shalltear's back, he saw her suddenly whirl around, staring at him with a sadistic look.
"Did you think this was going to work, moron?"
"SHAMBLES !"
Surprised, Shalltear saw him disappear again. Having left one of his pebbles in his original place, Law had changed places with it and aimed again at the vampire's back.
" INJECTION SHOT ! "
Eyes widening, Shalltear felt like a shock wave hit him the instant the tip of Law's sword touched her right shoulder. Afraid of pain, she took a step forward, before putting one knee on the ground.
"Because of not being able to electrocute you, these kinds of attacks have at least some effect on you."
" YOU ... YOU ... YOUUUUUU ... "
Standing up, Shalltear enlarged her nails, before pointing them at Law. Nevertheless, having anticipated this gesture, the man already had all of his pebbles around them.
" SHAMBLES ! "
Feeling her claws slam into the void, Shalltear roared in anger. But that was nothing compared to feeling Law's sword hit the back of her right shoulder.
" INJECTION SHOT ! "
Gritting her teeth, Shalltear struggled to hide her rage as she whirled around. But already Law had disappeared again.
" You look for me ? "
Looking up, the vampire saw him standing on top of a building.
"Really, I'm disappointed! Don't you have anything interesting to show me?"
In response, Shalltear threw up her hands. Then, concentrating, she managed to lift concrete blocks around her, using her telekinesis. Then, with a mocking grin, she threw them at Law.
"I will show you my power."
Finding itself bombarded, the building where Law was was completely pierced by the concrete blocks. Within seconds, the structure was so damaged that the building collapsed, like a house of cards. Yet, not having calmed down at all, Shalltear continued to bombard the ruins, crushing them under her boulders.
"DIE ! DIE ! DIE ! DIE ! "
A pebble hit the back of her skull, immobilizing her. And, as her rocks fell to the ground, she turned slowly, to see Law behind her.
"Hi!" He said quietly, sitting cross-legged again.
Immediately, Shalltear's eyes turned red, as Law saw new veins of rage appear on her forehead. Seeing this, he understood perfectly that he could win this fight. In terms of power, Shalltear was superior to him. However, it was obvious that she lacked strategy and very easily let her anger dictate her actions. Wanting to take advantage of this weak point, Law decided to continue fighting like this.
" Do you have a problem ? "
"Don't laugh at me." Shalltear roared, pointing at him. "Who do you think you are? You're a stupid human! Your race is inferior to mine! There's no way a human can beat a thoroughbred vampire."
"So what? Do you think it's with words that you'll beat me? Instead of talking, you'd better show me what you're capable of! Because, honestly, you still have nothing for me shown extraordinary."
" VERMILION NOVA !"
Immediately, a column of fire was created and rushed towards Law. Still remaining calm, Law only teleported away again.
"Whether it's you or your flames, it doesn't change..."
He suddenly fell silent, seeing Shalltear find herself right in front of him.
"That ... ? "
"I knew you were going to do this." The vampire asserted, bringing her fist to his face.
Nevertheless, a huge shadow covered her and, before Shalltear could react, she was crushed under a huge hand, made with metal objects.
"Don't forget me." Kid roared.
"Dumbass." Law shouted. " Go away. "
"What? What do you think you are giving me orders."
Nevertheless, he was surprised, seeing his gigantic hand get pulverized. Rising, Shalltear held a metal pipe in her hands as she turned back to Kid.
" FOOL ... "
Then Kid saw her rushing toward him.
" REPEL !" he roared.
Immediately, several metallic objects charged towards the vampire. However, twirling her metal bar in front of her, she managed to stop the projectiles, before finding herself in front of Kid. Placing his arm in front of him, the man covered it with Bushosoku Haki. Striking him without hesitation, Shalltear saw her metal bar twist with the impact.
Still, her punching power is enough to overpower Kid's haki and crack his forearm bone.
"What?" Kid wondered, grimacing in pain.
Then, Shalltear's hand gripped his skull, before she began to float in the air. Feeling his feet leave the ground, Kid began to struggle, slapping Shalltear in the face with his metal arm. Barely feeling his punches, Shalltear flew high into the sky, before coming to a halt.
"I hope you don't have vertigo."
"Damn it ! Let go of me, NOW ! "
"Your wish is my command. "
Then, using all her power, she threw Kid's body towards the ground.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" the redhead cried, feeling himself performing a free fall.
"Sayonara." Shalltear greeted him, with a mocking smile.
However, it was while looking towards the ground that she saw many metallic objects, floating towards her.
" WHAT ? "
Despite falling towards the ground, Kid managed to turn around towards her. Then, shouting, he gathered the objects around his metal arm, before making them take the form of a gigantic spear.
" PUNK SPEAR ! "
Seeing the giant spear rushing towards her, the vampire roared.
"You don't know when to give up."
Then, dropping, she flew at full speed towards Kid's spear. Then, closing her fist, she struck the end of Kid's spear. Immediately, everyone below her felt a shock wave from the impact of the two attacks. Yet, within moments, Shalltear's fist flattened the point of Kid's spear, before beginning to destroy it.
"What?" Kid wondered.
"Im...Impossible." Killer asserted.
Yet, proving otherwise, Shalltear thrust right through the huge spear, shattering it into a thousand pieces. Then, continuing on her way, she rushed towards Kid and, before he could touch the ground, she delivered a powerful punch to the abdomen. A stream of blood immediately left his mouth. Then, a second later, the man hit the ground hard.
"KID!" Killer shouted, while seeing a huge cloud of dust rising.
"My god! Shalltear-san was really angry." Regina remarked.
Finally, when the cloud of dust cleared, the four fighters saw Shalltear standing in front of Kid. With his body upside down, the man had his upper body sunk into the ground, while only his legs were visible. He was perfectly still and nothing could prove that he was still alive. Still, grabbing one of his legs, Shalltear pulled him off the ground. Then, spinning around, she ends up knocking him against a wall. Barely able to moan in pain, Kid showed that he was still alive.
Grinning wickedly, Shalltear then tossed it into the air.
" DI ... "
Stopping her attack, she backed up in extremis to dodge Killer's punishers. Displaying an enraged look, the vampire saw some of her hair falling to the ground. Raising her hand towards him, she created an invisible shock wave, which threw Killer backwards. Falling onto his back, he rolled several times, before managing to get back to his feet. Then, looking up, he saw Kid's body land on the roof of a building. His diversion had succeeded in saving his captain.
Nevertheless, appearing in front of him, Regina flashed a sadistic smile.
"Are you the kind of person who likes to play heroes?"
Not giving him time to answer her, she then gave a powerful kick that ejected Killer backwards. Feeling his back hit a lamp post, Kid gritted his teeth to keep from coughing up blood. Nevertheless, the Pleiad found themselves in front of him again and tried to punch his face. Leaning down in extremis, Killer felt Regina's fist go over his head, before hitting the lamppost, breaking it in two.
Then, seeing his blades begin to spin, Regina jumped back, only to be chased by Killer. Seeing him use his blades to disembowel her, Regina decided to imitate him, turning her fingernails into claws. Again their weapons clashed and created sparks. Struggling for a few seconds, Regina finally felt her feet skid backwards as Killer's weapons closed in on her, degrading her claws.
" Impossible. "
"This is your end."
Yet, two explosions hit Killer's back, causing him to scream in pain. Having aimed it, Cz fired two magic bullets, which managed to hit their targets. Seeing him lose concentration, Regina ran her claws towards his chest, before slashing him. Feeling four claws hurt him, the man dropped to one knee. Then, grabbing him by the throat, Regina lifted him off the ground.
"For a human, you are really gifted! Do me a favor, before I die, I want to see you sob and see you implore me to spare you! It is only by seeing this that I will decide to finish you . "
Then she punched his abdomen.
For her part, seeing the Pleiades subdue Killer, Shalltear turned in Law's direction.
"Tsss!" the man growled, seeing his two comrades being knocked to the ground.
"Do you understand now?" Shalltear asked, walking towards him. "You can never defeat us."
" TACT ! "
Creating a gigantic sphere, Law surrounded a building. Then, with a flick of his sword, he sliced through its base, causing it to lean forward. Finding herself near the building, Shalltear turned her head to see it fall in her direction. Then, a moment later, she was crushed under several thousand tons of concrete. Then jumping back, he settled on a high rock, to better see the scene. And no sooner had it stopped than an explosion took place, while more concrete blocks were ejected and crashed around the combat zone.
Floating above the ground, Shalltear managed to extricate herself from the rubble. Showing a confident smile again, she said.
"Now I'm the one feeling like you're nothing impressive! Pathetic human, now I'm going to show you what I can do."
"Do you believe that?" Law questioned.
Raising his head, he saw a large number of shards of concrete falling from the sky, from Shalltear's latest attack, to break free from the rubble. Wanting to take advantage of this, Law created a new sphere, which was ten times bigger than the last one.
" SHAMBLES ! "
Thinking he was going to disappear, Shalltear was surprised to see him stay still. Thinking he had missed his attack, she laughed.
"What's going on? Are you now too weak to attack me?"
"I advise you to raise your head! Your arrogance could be your downfall."
"Huh?" Shalltear wondered, looking up.
Immediately, she was surprised to see that the rock shards, which were still in the air, had changed places with large boulders, which now fell on Shalltear.
Still, displaying a boulder, the vampire flew towards the boulders and proceeded to kick them. Each time, he only needed one punch to pulverize a rock. This rain of rocks was in no way a danger to her.
"Is that your best attack? HAHAHAHA! Definitely, I have nothing to fear from you."
However, about to hit one of the rocks, she was surprised to see it disappear, to be replaced by Law.
" What ? "
"INJECTION SHOT ! "
The end of the sword slammed again into Shalltear's right shoulder. Feeling that area explode internally, Shalltear felt herself recoil from the impact. However, grabbing one of the rocks, she threw it at Law. Having no time to teleport, he used his saber to cut it in half. Unfortunately, obscuring his view for a second, the rock prevented him from seeing Shalltear's movements during that time. And no sooner had he cut the rock in two than he saw Shalltear, just behind it. Reaching out to Law, she grabbed him by his throat. Then, dropping down to the ground, she let Law's body hit the ground hard.
Groaning in pain, Law then opened his eyes to see Shalltear raise her fist in the air, before targeting his face.
" ADIOS ! "
However, the moment she lowered her arm, she was surprised that she no longer felt it, as it fell limply down, as if broken.
"Wh ...what?"
Starting to smile, Law affirmed.
"You overestimated your undead abilities! Even if your body is stronger than a human's, there are still limits! If its bones are broken, you won't be able to use your arm and It's the same with your muscles."
"My muscles?"
Remembering the area Law's attacks had targeted, Shalltear seemed to understand what was happening. Having taken advantage of Shalltear underestimating his power, Law damaged her right shoulder with his attacks.
"The major muscles in your right arm are right where I hit you."
"Tsss! All you did was stop me from using my right arm! Why are you proud of that?"
"Because that's only what I needed to defeat you."
"What ? "
" PUNK PISTOLS ! "
Hit in the face, Shalltear was thrown sideways by several pieces of metal. Putting her hand to the side of her face, she saw blood dripping from it. Looking up then, she saw Kid, on the roof of the building, with an arm stretched out towards her. His face bleeding, the man had the greatest difficulty in staying conscious. Still, seeing blood running down the side of Shalltear's face, he smiled.
"So the color of your blood is exactly like mine."
" YOU ... "
" COUNTER ... "
Appearing in front of her, Law placed his two thumbs on Shalltear's damaged shoulder, before attacking her with a powerful electrocution.
" ... CHOC ! "
Not aiming at the heart at all, he only chocked Shalltear's arm muscles to further damage them. Roaring with rage, Shalltear lifted her leg and let her foot hit Law's chest. Too fast to dodge, the attack sent Law flying backwards until he crashed into the wall of a building and was stuck in the center of a crater that had been created by the impact.
"Tssss! That idiot." Kid roared, aiming at Shalltear.
Nevertheless, the roof where he was found was bombarded by explosive projectiles. Forced to step back, Kid saw Cz aiming for him.
"You...you're starting to piss me off! REPEL !"
Stretching his hand towards Cz, he tried to disarm her. Feeling the unseen force once again begin to pull her gun, the Pleiad hugged it. However, it was soon her entire body that found itself drawn to Kid's power.
"Huh?" The two people wondered, seeing this phenomenon.
"A cyborg?" Kid wondered.
Suddenly deciding to take advantage of Kid's attack, Cz deliberately allowed herself to be pulled by the electromagnetic force and felt herself flying towards Kid. Understanding only, too late, what she wanted to do, Kid saw her approaching him, at full speed, before pointing her gun at him.
" That ... ? "
A flurry of explosive fire interrupted him. Firing without stopping, Cz bombarded his body and the pirate was quickly surrounded by a cloud of smoke. Pulling for many seconds, until she felt her magic reserves dwindle, the pleiad finally stopped. Ahead of her, the roof of the building was nothing but destroyed ground and smoke. Using his powers, Kid had condemned himself.
Starting to turn around to see Regina's fight, the pleiad was nonetheless surprised to hear a noise behind them. Not even having time to turn around, she felt an attractive force, force her to move and her head quickly found itself stuck in the palm of Kid's hand.
" REPEL !" the man roared, as his body appeared through the smoke, which was beginning to disappear.
Surprised, Cz saw him still standing, despite his new injuries and his charred torso. Immediately, keeping her composure, she pointed her gun at the pirate. But already, Kid clutched her skull between his fingers, before banging the back of her head against the roof of the building.
" REPEL !"
Feeling like she was getting a violent hickey, Cz felt her face being drawn towards the palm of Kid's hand, giving him no chance to free herself. Without knowing it, she had already lost.
" EJECT ! "
This time, instead of pulling Cz, Kid used electromagnetism to eject her as far away from him as possible. Having been attracted, before being ejected suddenly, Cz felt her whole body hit the roof of the building, before crossing it. Then, continuing to fall, she crossed all the landings of the building, while her body pulverized the numerous floors and ceilings. Finally, her running stopped when she hit the ground of the first floor, with a huge crash, which everyone could hear.
"C...Cz?" Lupusregina wondered, turning to the building.
She got no response. Indeed, inside the rubble, the pleiad was motionless, and their eyes completely white. Kid had defeated her. Seeing this, the redhead finally let himself fall backwards and his back touched the roof of the damaged building, while he no longer had the strength to fight. For her part, still looking at the place where his sister had disappeared, Reginadidn't believe what she saw . It was the first time she had seen one of the Pleiades beaten.
"Impossible! It is impossible."
Still feeling her hand hold her throat, Killer took advantage of her lowering her guard to move his leg and managed to hit her chin with his foot. Feeling her jaws snap, the pleiad backed away, letting go of Killer. Jumping back, he then twirled his punishers before asserting.
"You should never have underestimated the Kid Pirates! KAMAA ..."
Barely having time to react, Regina saw him rush in her direction, before ending up behind her. Then, a moment later, she screamed in pain, as a huge wound had been made in her stomach.
" SONIC ! "
Seeing her then fall backwards, Killer rushed towards Shalltaear.
"There's only you left."
However, he stopped, feeling a hand grab his leg.
" Huh ? "
"It's not over." Regina roared.
Staring at her, Killer saw her eyes turn red. Then her body changed. Letting her muscles flex, Regina ripped her clothes off. Then, a thick fur covered her body. Stepping back, Killer saw her reach three meters high, while she took an animal form. Eventually, a muzzle appeared in the center of her face, just like a wolf's tail.
When her transformation was complete, Regina looked like a real werewolf.
"What is that?" Killer wondered.
Rubbing a hand over her abdomen, Regina noticed that her wound had closed. Nevertheless, not having forgotten the humiliation she had just felt, she roared.
"I will never disappoint my lady! I would rather die than lose to you."
"Tsss! It's just words." Killer retorted, running towards her.
Spinning his weapons, he aimed them at the werewolf's throat. However, as he struck her, he saw the creature disappear from sight.
" Wh ... ? "
Having increased her speed, Regina found herself behind the pirate. Then, extending her claws, she pointed them at his back. Screaming in pain, Killer felt her claws pierce his flesh. Then, lifting him off the ground, Regina stared at him like a trophy.
"I don't know who you are, but I think it's time for me to finish you off! But don't worry! I wasn't damaging your body and that of your red-haired friend too much! I'm certain that Demiurge will be happy to dissect you to understand where your powers come from."
"As if… As if this was going to happen." Killer roared.
Positioning his arms behind his back, he twirled his punishers again to cut off the werewolf's arm. Using her second arm, Regina managed to stop one of the blades with her claws. Nevertheless, the second punisher slashed her arm until it hit the limb frame. Groaning in pain, Regina retaliated by kicking Killer's center back. Feeling Regina's claws withdraw from his back, the pirate then did a glide before crashing to the ground.
Seeing him like this, Regina looked down at her injured arm, as blood flowed from it.
" Tssss ! "
However, knowing full well that this wound was insignificant, she put her second hand on his wound, before creating an intense light.
" MEDIUM CURE WOUND ! "
Raising his head from the ground and trying to stand up, Killer then saw the light disappear. Then, Regina walked towards him, with her arm healed, only having a scar where her old wound had been.
"No matter how hard you try to hurt me, I will always heal! Besides, I am perhaps the most dangerous pleiad, because I can easily heal the wounds of my allies! Do you understand?"
Displaying her famous sadistic smile, she declared.
"As long as I'm fit to fight, you'll never win this fight! After I kill you, I can heal Cz and defeat the man in the cap... if Shalltear hasn't killed him yet . "
Then, raising her arm skyward, she let her claws cover themselves in red lightning, as she licked her lips.
"Screams in pain for me."
Seeing Law's body still stuck in the wall of a building, Shalltear walked towards him, still affirming.
"As much as I regret to admit it, you have been the toughest foes we have faced in a long time! I never would have guessed that humans could achieve power like yours! Nevertheless, I hope that you have understood that, despite all the efforts you will make, nothing will be able to allow you to defeat us."
"Blabla and blabla! You're just talking."
Surprised, Shalltear saw Law begin to move slightly again. Then, managing to dislodge himself from the wall, he fell to the ground, in a sitting position. Seeing him do as he seemed out of energy, Shalltear laughed.
"You are incapable of doing anything! Nevertheless, I will be lenient! In respect for your strength, I will finish you off without pain! VERMILION NOVA !"
Seeing her concentrating her energy and creating flames, Law began to smile. Then, grabbing his cap, he threw it in the air.
"What...?" the vampire wondered, looking up.
For half a second, she stopped staring at Law, and that short delay was all the pirate needed.
" SHAMBLES ! "
Seeing Regina's claws about to smash into him, Killer was surprised to see the pleiad disappear to be replaced by Law. As surprised as he was, Regina appeared in Law's place and found herself in front of Shalltear's attack. Not having time to suppress it, Shalltear saw her column of flames rush towards Regina and crash into her.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" Regina screamed, feeling the flames burning her body.
Then, when the flames disappeared, the vampire saw Regina, still standing, with her completely charred body.
"Shall...Shallte...ar..." she stammered.
Then, dropping forward, the pleiad collapsed to the ground.
Immobilized upon seeing this, Shalltear doesn't even react, hearing Law scream.
" SHAMBLES ! "
This time, taking advantage that his cap was still in the air, Law appeared above the vampire, before pointing his saber at her.
" RADIO ... "
Raising her gaze immediately, Shalltear showed her rage, as she stretched her arms towards him.
" YOU'LL DIE ! "
Unfortunately, wincing in pain, she felt her right arm fall back while being unable to move it.
"DAMN IT ... "
" KNIFE !"
Immediately, Law's saber slashed Shalltear from the top of her skull to her crotch. Eyes widening as blood squirted out of her wound the vampire opened her mouth wide, but no sound came out. Finally, she collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Law sat down on the ground.
"It's finally over."
Seeing this, Killer asked.
"Who were these women?"
"Never mind! Let's get out of here before we see any more monsters coming."
Approving, Killer began to move towards where Kid was. Getting ready to follow him, Law stopped, while he felt a strange aura. At that moment, he saw the blood around the corpses of former members of Armageddon, rising into the air.
Startled, he saw the entire red liquid take the shape of a scarlet sphere. Then stooping down she walked towards Shalltear. It was at that second that Law saw her sit up.
"It's not over." She roared.
Letting the scarlet sphere touch her, Shalltear let the blood cover her entire body, before being sucked into her skin. Then, recoiling in fright, Law saw her cop metamorphose. Taking on the form of a foul creature, Shalltear rose to her feet, her wounds seeming to disappear.
Stopping in turn, Killer had the impression that his body felt paralyzed by the murderous aura emanating from the body of the vampire. Staring at the duo, she roared.
" I'M HUNGRY ! "
