Hey, everyone, I'm no longer sick, so I can write comfortably and without any problems again. The time in bed gave me time to put together the entire plot I want to do for the Fate arc, and I already have the Servants for the Holy Grail War, which will be two: the first from Fate/stay night and the second, something made up. I'm not going to include Fate/zero or Apocrypha, as I feel they're a bit overcooked.
Also, the other war will be a mix of Apocrypha and Stranger Fake, with 16 Servants in total, which I've already noted. And I'm planning on doing certain historical Servants that aren't in the Fate series yet. They might appear later, but it's a fic, not canon, so I can do whatever I want.
If I see support (which I don't think I will, since no one commented on the chapters, not literally), I can share the names of half the Servants I plan to use for this Holy Grail War.
I also want to say that, since I made the main character images, I've been making AI images of some anime characters, so you can check them out if you want.

Without anything else to say, let the fic continue.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can see a mountain in total darkness; in the distance, you can see a city with many lights—normal lights, colored lights, and fire.
We were waiting not far from the city on the Skíðblaðnir for the visitors to arrive, and Trini was in charge of seeing where they were coming from.
I was holding the plank that made the boat float and move when used, while in my other hand, I was outside the boat holding a rope, which was tied to another equally large boat.
Arthur, Sulli, and Isis were doing the same, but from the opposite side of the boat.
Dante: "How much longer?"
Trini: "I don't know; there are a lot of people running around in the city. I'm amazed at how much chaos Fisher Tiger managed to create in such a short time." "But if you get bored, we can leave here without too much trouble."
Dante: "We can't, as a hero; I have a moral code, and that is not to leave people helpless to their fate. Besides, you could say I owe Fisher Tiger a favor."
*Flashback*
Dante: "Do I really have to wait that long to be able to move?"
Sulli: "It's not that easy. If I did it myself, maybe, but Arthur does everything; I just guide." "Your heel was completely destroyed, so we have to find something to replace it. So we use parts from other joints and insert them to fill in the gaps." "So, little by little, in addition to waiting for the healing process and allowing you to get used to the new sensation, we speed up the process a little, but it doesn't happen automatically."
I started to complain in a whisper when, out of nowhere, Fisher Tiger arrived to offer a comment.
Fisher: "So why do they find another tendon and replace it? It would be the same as replacing an organ, wouldn't it?"
Sulli wanted to say something but couldn't. Everyone present couldn't refute her logic.
*Scene Change*
Arthur: "Hey, this guy's almost your size," he said, lifting the foot of a half-conscious pirate.
Sulli: "It might work; cut it off."
And with a sweep of his spear, Arthur sliced through the pirate's entire thigh.
Pirate: "AAAAAAAH!" the guy screamed as he woke up from unconsciousness.
Trini: "What a disgusting foot! It's all dirty. It's obvious none of them bathe. You definitely want that from him," I thought to myself.
Dante: "I kind of regretted it. I'm sure we can't find someone cleaner."
Sulli: "We can only maim pirates. We can't do anything to civilians or marines, nor can we find clean pirates. Maybe they don't exist."
Dante: "I don't want anything anymore. Hit him again."
*End of flashback*
Thanks to his idea, I went from not moving for 10 months to a month and a half. I'm not going to abandon him in his crusade.
Trini: "I see people running this way."
Arthur: "Do you know what race they are?"
Trini: "There's everything: humans, long arms, fishmen, and a whole lot of variety."
Arthur: "Good thing. I was afraid he'd only rescue his own kind; we don't know if something like that will happen again in the future."
I knew Fisher Tiger would save as many people as possible; the proof was the Hancock sisters, who, if it weren't for my intervention, would have had to escape from Mary Geoise right now like former slaves. But don't let that mentality out of your head, as seeing is believing.
Dante: "Get everything ready to receive as many people as possible."
And so we arranged the boats so people could board them. First came the ones that were hanging, and lastly, the boat we were on.
There were a lot of people, so we boarded weak, old, very young, or disabled people, claiming that the others could escape on their own, like the fish-eyes who could jump in a certain way and swim away.
Below, we had other boats ready to board; we left the ones we had hanging in the water and brought the other two up.
We knew there were people who might be left behind and couldn't get off with us; therefore, these boats had tools that lowered the Red Line.
In the end, we did our job and left with the people we rescued.
Arthur: "Another trip to drop people off on their islands."
Isis: "Cheer up; it's fun to discover new islands; they're new experiences that enrich the soul."
Dante: "Look at the way Grandma talks," I said to Sulli, who tried to give a small, silent laugh, but sadly, we were heard by her.
She just glared at us, predicting a world of pain when this was over. Sulli and I hugged each other in fear at the imminent disaster the goddess of the skies, Isis, had in store for us.
...
It took us two weeks to drop off everyone; some of them lived at the end of the world, and I had no plans to go there.
At the end of the week, we dropped them off at a tattoo shop and convinced them to tattoo their backs to hide some of the slave branding.
We also knew this situation was pretty big, so to create a buffer, which Fisher Tiger gave us permission to do this way, we asked Morgans to write it a certain way.
Fisher Tiger, the Fishman pirate, tricks the great hero Dante into rescuing Mary Geoise's slaves.
The rest isn't really interesting, knowing what that bird looks like. Half true, half nonsense.
There's also the fact of the new pirate group called the Sun Pirates, led by Fisher Tiger himself.
Right now, we're resting at a resort we found. I could walk but not run fast. I could injure the tendon from the pressure and friction; I have to wait at least another month.
I was in a jacuzzi next to Isis. Trini and Sulli were still secretly doing couples' things, while Arthur went to eat at an open buffet.
Guru guru guru
The sound of the den den mushi began to be heard. Isis couldn't go, since she was half dead from the water; she had hooks holding her up so she wouldn't sink and drown, and there were just the two of us, so I had to get up to go.
Dante: "Hey, hey," I answered without looking closely at the den den mushi.
???: "Hey, it's Kuzan, can you hear me?"
Dante: "Yeah, everything's great. What makes you want to talk to me?"
Kuzan: "We have an operation we'd like your help with."
Dante: "Wait a minute. They wanted our help when they kicked us out of the G8 for not being Marines. A bit cheeky."
Kuzan: "I don't have much to do with all of that, but you could say this is different. They don't want you to do much; just be there as security for the impending operation. In fact, I won't even be there. It was Akainu who wanted you there. They just asked me to talk to you."
Dante: "Hmm, I don't know. I'm kind of tired and can't do much lately."
Kuzan: "They know, and they're willing to wait a certain amount of time."
This feels a bit serious, given the fact that they want our help.
Dante: "Let's see, tell me what this is all about, and maybe I'll tell you whether or not we do it."
Kuzan: "Well, I..." "This is more complicated than you think, and even more so when it's related to something involving Garp-san." "What's happening is we found the revolutionaries' current base."
Dante: "What did you say?" I shouted, causing Isis to break out of her trance and try to turn back to where she was, struggling to see and hear what I was saying.
Kuzan: "We found where Dragon and his men are; it'll be something similar to what happened with the king of the underworld, only the protagonist won't be you, but Akainu." "He asked to go do this, and he asked to confront him, since you were brigade mates before Dragon deserted the navy." "He asked for your support for whatever might happen, so the question is how long it will take you to be ready to do some exercise."
Dante: "I'll be ready in a month; I'll still discuss it with the others and give you confirmation."
Kuzan: "I'll be waiting for their response."
And with that, the call ended.
Dante: "I imagine you heard, right? What do you think?"
Isis: "If it's going to be like the incident in the underworld, then we don't have much to lose; we'll just beat up some minor revolutionaries and safeguard the weaker ones." "Admiral Akainu will do all the work."
Dante: "Fine, let's see what the others say and I'll give my verdict."
*One Month Later*
Trini: "What a bad day," she said, looking at the sky.
Isis: "Hun says there's going to be a storm."
Hun: [Storm, storm.]
Right now we're at G7, the closest base to the revolutionaries' base; right now we're walking to meet with Akainu.
After walking a bit, we arrived at the room where they were waiting for us. There were several high-ranking marines, including commodores and vice admirals; in the middle of it all was Akainu.
Akainu: "We've been waiting for you; it's a pleasure to meet the great hero Dante," he said, shaking hands.
Dante: "The pleasure is mine, and what are we going to do?"
Akainu: "You guys are really nothing, because no matter what happens, the situation will end up being one-on-one, with Dragon and me as the opponents."
Dante: "And the others?"
Akainu: "Capture them if possible; the priority is to catch the criminal Dragon."
Dante: "Then it will be a piece of cake," I said with a smile.
*Scene Change*
There I was, on the edge of the boat, staring at the sky above the island where Akainu and Dragon were fighting, my mouth agape.
It was no small feat, as the island was currently engulfed by a giant tornado that was covering the entire island. Lightning was coming from all sides; black clouds covered the entire sky in the area; not a single ray of sunlight could be seen.
Despite how far away we were, the tornado seemed gigantic.
At that moment, I realized that the temperature in the area was slowly and steadily dropping, and I could see something white slowly approaching. I reached out to make it fall into my palm so I could see it more clearly.
Dante: "Snow?"
Trini: "Yes, and more is coming," she said next to me, pointing to the sky as it filled with white dots.
Dante: "Where's all this coming from?"
Trini: "From there," she said, pointing to the island where the fight was taking place.
Third-person POV
In the eye of the massive hurricane/tornado, two men can be seen fighting hand-to-hand. One had the Cloak of Justice on his back, and the other had a tattoo covering half his face.
The environment was damp and cold, the ground was already almost covered in snow, and the winds would rage everywhere.
Both men were throwing punches at each other, dodging or blocking the attack, each familiar with the other's fighting style.
Dragon spun around at a 360-degree angle with his fist extended, attempting to strike Akainu's head, but he ducked just enough to avoid it. Using his stance, Dragon again threw a downward hook to the body, but Akainu dove to the ground and spun away.
The moment his fist touched the ground, the entire impact area was destroyed in seconds, generating a trail of earth, debris, and snow.
A little snow fell on Akainu, but it was burned the moment it touched him. Watching all this, he used his Magma Fruit with his fists and launched magma balls at Dragon.
Now standing, Dragon doesn't flinch from the attack; using Haki, he walks forward, hitting all the magma balls with just his hands.
This is thanks to the atmosphere. Thanks to the cold, the wind, and the snow, the magma cools at a rapid rate the moment Akainu uses it; he has to expend more energy to keep it warm so it doesn't cool down to rock.
Dragon, with his slow gait, extended one of his hands, and wind began to swirl from it. And suddenly, a tornado shot straight toward Akainu. He's using his foot to barely hold him.
Dragon: "With so many disadvantages you have, you're doing well; let's see how you do with this." And with that, he stomped his foot, creating a crack that quickly spread to where Akainu was standing. It briefly opened, leaving one foot on one side and the other on the other side.
In the crack, nothing could be seen below, as if there were a great void. Before Akainu could do anything, Dragon was already in front of him, punching him, which he managed to block with his arm but was still sent flying.
Akainu didn't stay still; in midair, he launched a blast of magma at Dragon. Dragon simply ducked and cupped the earth in his hand, only for the entire ground to crack and large chunks of earth to rise, blocking most of the magma balls.
Akainu was very annoyed, so he ran over to where Dragon was. Dragon continued to smash and shift the tectonic plates at his convenience, raising and lowering chunks of land around him. Akainu jumped and dodged everything Dragon threw at him until he reached him.
And with his magma-filled fist, he punched Dragon, who barely managed to block properly, as blocking a half-cooled ball of magma was different from blocking direct magma.
Dragon was barely able to deflect the attack. Akainu was going for another blow, but Dragon jumped back and, with his finger pointed at the ground, pointed at Akainu, and in less than a second, a burst of lightning struck Akainu.
He knew the attack wasn't effective, but it gave him time to move and get some distance. And so it was, as Akainu reformed a few seconds after the attack.
Dragon looked at his burnt hands as he blocked Akainu's direct attack.
Dragon: "Let's see if they can withstand the end of the world," he said, raising his palm to the sky.
Akaino wasn't going to let him do anything, so he charged at Dragon at full speed. But Dragon, with his outstretched hand, brought it down until it hit the ground. And the moment it touched, the entire island's ground cracked. This caused Akainu to stop and jump from where he was standing, as a huge explosion erupted where he was standing.
In different places on the island, things began to crack and shatter, as well as explode; the entire island began to be destroyed little by little.
Dragon, now standing, extended his palm forward, generating a gust of wind stronger than before, destroying buildings and sending trees flying, roots and all. The whole scene looked apocalyptic.
Akainu tried to stay in the same position, the wind reaching his body, but he was able to hold his ground.
All of a sudden, he looked up at the sky with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe what he had just seen.
Dante's POV
All the ships were moving erratically; the wind was getting stronger, and the sea was behaving very erratically.
Dante: "Isis, keep the ships from colliding with each other, everyone else."
Trini: "What the fuck," he said, making me stop in my tracks; I noticed he was looking at the sky.
I concentrated, trying to see what I was seeing, and suddenly meteorites started falling on the island where Akainu and Dragon were fighting.
My mouth fell open; I never thought I'd see this in my life. It was what it felt like when giant rocks hit the island.
At that moment, I approached a rear admiral and grabbed him by the neck.
Dante: "What the fuck is going on? I know Akainu can't do this, so tell me what kind of Devil Fruit Dragon has."
The marine, with fear on his face—I don't know if it was because of me or because of everything else that was happening—responded.
Rear Admiral: "It's the fruit of natural disasters; he's a natural disaster man," he said, almost crying.
Dante: "I imagine they knew."
Rear Admiral: "Yes, that's why only Akainu went to fight him."
No wonder that guy hasn't been seen fighting; if he appears on the scene, they must send an admiral, and to fight an admiral, he must use his Devil Fruit, and, seeing all this, he'll most likely harm both his enemies and his allies. Natural disasters are uncontrollable; he only generates or summons them, but he doesn't control them, at least not completely.
I was going to say something else, but I realized the sea was moving in one direction, backward.
I began to hear panicked screams; Trini was still next to me, and she touched my shoulder to divert attention.
Trini: "We'd better get out of here, Dante."
At that moment, I looked in the direction everyone was looking, only to see a giant wave that resembled a mountain. I couldn't see how many meters it was with my eye, but I can say it's the largest wave I've ever seen.
Dante: "A tsunami, shit," I complained, seeing the situation; Dragon was planning to sink both the island and the navy ships in a single instant.
Without thinking much, I drew the Fusion Sword and ran to the other side of the ship. I was still a good distance from the wave, giving me time.
I began to spin the sword once more quickly, using the handle as the center of it. And when I saw that the wave was already getting very close, I stomped on the ground, causing the ship to tilt sharply downward from where I was, and launched an energy attack at the giant wave.
The wave was quickly cut in two horizontally, but it still wasn't enough.
With great speed, I unleashed more energy, destroying the wave's shape and causing it to fall into the water.
This caused the sea level to suddenly rise, moving all the ships to where the island was. Some ships still capsized, but there were only two; I can't do anything about that.
...
In the end, nothing much happened: Dragon escaped with many injuries, and Akainu was equally badly injured, but both were alive and well, in a way.
The marines managed to capture some of the revolutionaries, but they were low-ranking, so it wasn't much; all the most important ones escaped.
You could say it was a small defeat for the marines.
Arthur: "How terrifying. I thought I was going to die when I saw that giant wave."
Trini: "Don't exaggerate. We were shaped to avoid the wave without getting too wet. Anyway, if you sank, Dante would have come to your rescue. Unlike you, Isis can fly."
Isis: "What are you looking at, Dante?" she said, looking at where she was.
I was sitting on a couch looking at a letter that a boy in the city had sent me anonymously.
Dante: "It's an invitation from Fisher Tiger to Gyojin Island. He wants me to go see some of the Gyojin Island there with the royal family, more specifically, with Queen Gyojin Otohime."
