19 Battling A King

I sighed tiredly as I made my way to the pier flanked by the two people who had joined my crew. We had serious expressions on our face as we advanced, a horde of people ran in the opposite direction screaming as they did, uncaring of those who got in their way.

They reminded me of a bunch of mad elephants, storming the roads with rage. This was chaos, smoke bellowed into the sky as it tried to block the path if the sun. "Before we go any further," I began "both of you take this, it's called [limit breaker], and it'll allow you to exceed your limits for a small amount of time.." I finished.

This had been one of the first things I had tried to 'Download' (as I had decided to call my newest ability), it was a serum that would boost all physical and mental capabilities for a short period of time, there was a lot of disadvantages to its use though, like how one would be bedridden for atleast a few months, or how it hurt like h.e.l.l when used, and most of all it could only be used once by any individual! (I wasn't being lazy, this was the best recipe there was in grandpa's library!!!)

I had already explained to the duo, how one would use it, though the fatty had needed repeated iterations to convince him that the serum was not a fizzy drink and shouldn't be used so simply….(He still didn't understand though, hence the need for me to safe keep them until the time the battle started….sigh..)

As we rushed through the nearby debris, I finally caught sight of the transgressor. Honestly before this I didn't really care who it was, as long as the boat was in one piece, I was pretty sure we could just escape, no harm done, but now that I caught a sight of the pier was left sh.e.l.l shocked, my prized rickety boat lay in peril, and most of the nearby s.h.i.+ps had gaping holes through them.

The initiator to all of this was one particular homicidal maniac by name - Doflamingo. The blond haired man stood alone over a leaden vessel, his red gla.s.ses seemed to observe the running people as one would observe puny ants, condescendingly smirking at their terror.

His pink cloak seemed to flutter in the breeze as uncaringly played with the hilt of his silver hilted rapier. He sighed bored as he jumped off his boat. "You rats… get lost!" He said chuckling softly as he looked toward the s.h.i.+p.

"d.a.m.n that Trebol, wanting to go enjoy slaves when he should be accompanying me.!" He grumbled as he looked around only then looking my way, before walking towards us purposefully.

"Would ya look at that, three young men all in the pink of youth, wait, two young men and an overgrown capybara. I'm sure Someone would want you!" he said licking his lips, before carelessly moving his hands towards us.

The three of us jumped backwards at the same time, fatty even having time to fire off some ugly faces to the antagonist that had by now begun to subtly frown.

"Fuffu~? the rats want to fight? You think you can?" He taunted as he moved toward us, his hands seemed to flourish as a pack of strings came flying toward us.

Our arms clashed as I faced off against the s.h.i.+chibukai, heavy punches rained down on me as I was pushed back. The man even had time to rain a few kicks towards Fawkes sending him flying towards a nearby building. This was going to be a long and tedious fight..

{Third person POV}

Sorren leapt around as he tried to avoid the strings that flew towards him, a foreboding aura emitting from them. Lore was the only one in active conflict as he tried to land a clean hit against his enemy.

Fawkes who by now had returned to the battle swung his axe heavily as he aimed for Doflamingo, a whistling sound seemed to emit from the air surrounding the axe, as Doflamingo ducked under it only to be greeted by a sharp uppercut from Lorean. Heavy punches and kicks rained down on the pack of string as Sorren finally freed himself from their pursuit, as he too joined the heated fight.

"[Martial Art: Quick Punch]" Sorren roared as he flanked the enemy, a sharp attack aiming at Doflamingo's right shoulder cannoned through the air causing wide compressions of air to blow the nearby sea into a flurry. "[Martial Art: Tiger Punch]" he continued bringing his other clenched fist toward the back of Doflamingo's shoulder blade.

"[Thread Coc.o.o.n]!"Doflamingo growled as a swarm of threads flooded out from his sleeve, engufing Sorren before throwing him against the hard pavement. "[Cat's Cradle]!" he continued as another batch of threads attacked Lorean and Fawkes. The threads spun around them seeming to form what could only be a collection of complex forms that trapped their arms before promptly depositing them onto the pavement next to the entrapped Sorren.

"Fuffufu~` that's all you got? Shame, I was expecting more…" He said with an easy smile on his face. "Ok Chop chop. this n.o.ble's got some work to do. So go die~" He continued as he brought his fingers together. [thread Execution!] he said with a simple wave as the victims rose shakily to their feet, the constraints on them only recently removed.

A thin string seemed to wrap around the necks of the trio, which begun to rapidly choke them. The trio convulsed in pain, Sorren even began foaming at the mouth, as cried of pain swarmed the air. Doflamingo smiled s.a.d.i.s.tically as he chuckled to himself, evidently joyful at the prospects of squas.h.i.+ng all those who opposed him.

A chuckle rang through the air as Lorean seemed to disappear. "I need to thank you Doflamingo, you helped me out big time.. so why don't you enjoy.. [Sonido!]" A disembodied voice muttered as the threads on the struggling duo suddenly dropped, before Sorren and Fawkes too seemed to disappear only to be deposited a short distance away near the foot of the only standing structure.

"then Let's dance shall we, Doflamingo?"
