"Zehahaha!" Vane screamed in maniacal laughter as Muromachi slammed the air with his mace! Vane smacking the air! Causing another immense vibration!
"Divine Retribution!" Muromachi summoned his Conch Shell! And out from was all the energy that it had absorbed earlier! Exploding out into a blast of Orange and Golden Light! Sharp and like flames! It impacted Vane with full force!
"Gragh!" He lurched backwards. Blood spewing from his mouth. "Hagh…Lucky you! We're done here! So stay safe…Fleet Admiral…."
"ZEHAHAHAHAHA!" From one hand, darkness oozed! From the other, the power of the Gura Gura No Mi!
"This….IS MY ERA! ZEHAHAHAHA! I WILL BE THE ONE WHO IS THE KING OF IT ALL!" He roared! The Black darkness oozing from his hand and shooting out around like slime, webs, strands of darkness, and mist of shadows like black flames! It absorbed all around! It did not draw in, but it just swallowed what ever it touched! Leaving harsh sharp trenches and pot marks around the battlefield!
The Air shattered as the Sea Began to Tilt! Rising into the air! Enormous waves washing up! And down! Moving the titanic and enormous tectonic plates just as Redbeard had done previously!
And as quickly as it started! A Literal Earth Shaking Apocalypse of All Consuming Darkness…
Stopped…
Everywhere around the Island. Was destruction. Deep trenches kilometers long that traveled across the near 75 km wide island. So large that buildings were easily able to fall into the chasms. It was as if a giant divine knife had fell from the sky and carved up the island. Slicing it deep. Cracking it and pulverizing the super concrete into nothing but rubble and destruction,,,,
And Blackbeard and his Crew. Was Gone!
"Hagh…." Muromachi shrunk. Leaving his form. Every threat that was on the island. Was now gone. Or being dealt with by Asashi. Muromachi closed his eyes
There was a strange silence. Not in the absence of violence or conflict. As all around the island there was still explosions from tanks firing. War and Battleships bombarding escaping ships. Harbingers spewing lasers faster than lightning. But that lull. Like coming down from the height of pain from an injury where all that was left was a pang and ache
Muromachi exhaled. He had decided what the best course of action was now. How best was it to tell the world of this Narrative. Of this battle…
Of The Supreme War
"This! This is the Disease of Piracy! This is the Terror and Chaos they Reign!" He began. Shouting as loud as he could. The Camera coming to face him. Standing tall in amongst the rubble. He alone. The head of the Marines. Amidst the destruction
"Today! The Marines were victorious in ending the Bloodline of the Worst Pirate in history! The Pirate King!" His mouth was wide as his throat spewed the words
"And in return, the Pirates Ate each other! Killed one another! And attempted to destroy the World as We Know it! But still the Marines stand tall! Stand firm! We can rebuild! Because we won!" He shot a hand up into the air! Fist tight! He stood shirtless. With his jacket and the insignia of justice on its surface fluttering in the wind of battle
The world cheered. Those words, were reaffirmation of their beliefs. Their values. Their want to be protected. Even if they knew that the Marines suffered Casualties and damage. That Flaw…It was humility. It humanized the organization in their eyes and proved them to be right. From a want of peace. To those that believed in order through strength. Or just those that wanted to believe in the Marines because they said they wanted Justice
Muromachi could feel those cheers of millions perhaps billions. He allowed his body to relax, he reached into his pocket. And pulled out a small capsule. Opening it up. Inside was a shelless Transponder Snail. Waking up and looking up. Ready to transmit its telekinetic brainwaves to its other members. This was a Confidential Den Den. A one way communicator to all den dens from one place
"Keep all Cameras on the rest of the Battle. Show them our struggle. Let them cheer for our victory and see those pirates and their danger." He spoke plainly into the animal before closing it and placing it back in his pocket
"Hah…Ha…Huh?" Muromachi suddenly cocked a brow. Eyes looking to the side. Jack had suddenly started moving. At first he didn't not pay mind. But the look on the mans face told him everything he needed…
With a single step. An aura erupted from Jacks body! Lighting crackling. Arms glowing-
But it disappeared! Muromachi suddenly wrapped his arms around Jack! Pulling him to the ground in an expert grapple chokehold! Arms wrapped around his neck and pushing his head forward. Keeping his arms and head from moving!
"What the hell are you doing?! Why the fuck were you about to do that?!" He said. He not only sensed it and the intention. But also the outcome!
"Are you out of your mind?!" He questioned again. Jacks face morphed into one of teary eyed fury "The whole world is watching you idiot! We've already won their hearts and minds fuck this up!"
"Machi…You better tighten your grip…Because if I get out…I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill Kuroryu!" His voice was a deep aggressive growl.
"And have the world see that?! Their hero do such a thing?! The Fleet Admiral whispered in a harsh tone
"Youre a Marine! Your Grandsons chose their Paths! Snap out of it! Now! Thats a Direct Order!" He knew that Jack was in shambles. He knew he was conflicted. He knew everything that had happened. He was worried. He knew how volatile his temper was. And if he had helped Azar….He would've gotten away…
"You're standing in my way? You really think that you can actually stop anything? You've failed. And you're surrounded. It'd best to give up now. So I may take pleasure in Arresting you…" Kuroryu said. His neck tensed. Brow creased as one of his arms dripped with plasma
In front of him. Was the remaining Commanders of The Redbeard Crew. All who could stand did so. Ready to fight the Admiral head on and prevent him from getting to those trying to escape.
Ships were able to get out of the surrounding sea. While other did not. As Nokotori, the Deep Blue Bird, stood in the middle of the Ocean. Freezing millions of tons of Water in an instant. His hand in his pockets. Only those not in his direct path were making it out.
The Dread Pirates. The Crew of Minks. And 4 Ships of a total of 450 Pirates were able to get passed…But that was far too little. As there was still thousands filled in the bay in ships frozen in the Ocean. Dozens of Ships.
"But if I'm being honest…Please do Resist." His lips broke into the slightest smile.
"Go!" Polo screamed! All at once all of the Commanders shot forward! Morozzo brought his blades up! And slashed at the Marine! Constantly facing him as he bobbed and weaved past the Admirals super heated attacks! He'd already suffered burns from before!
As did Polo! He'd been a Pirate for nearly 30 years! But he could feel himself slowing down! He wasn't what he used to be! He swiped his bo through the air! Kuroryu smacked it out of the way as Bailey Wall raised his weapon into the air!
"None of you are going to leave here alive! Every last one of you will be nothing but Cautionary Tales!" He Roared! Slicing through Bailey's stomach and slamming his fist into the wound and sending the Man flying Backwards!
