Capítulo 32: 31. End of the Arlong Pirates
Jumping on the fence, I examined the park and the results of the explosion I had arranged. I did not spare the explosives, so the damage was significant, especially the first floor of the pagoda and the area around the building itself.
And it looks like one of the fishmen wasn't very lucky. Judging by his condition, he was practically at the epicenter of the explosion, and now his body lay limply on the side, mutilated by fire. He survived, but only by a miracle, and now it is not even possible to find out who exactly it was.
But clearly not Arlong, since such an explosion would hardly have hurt him so much, and clearly not Hatchan, since the body had only two arms.
The explosion itself also attracted the attention of Arlong's pet, Momoo, a giant sea cow, who stuck his snout out of the water and, with visible concern in his eyes, looked at the site of the explosion, bellowing something loudly.
Since Momoo appeared so well, I decided to take this chance and immediately neutralize this strange animal. Although he is not dangerous and rather cowardly by nature, due to his size he can cause problems. And even if he cannot do anything to me personally, he can take up arms against the inhabitants of the island, which is not good.
In addition, if he hides in the waters of the ocean, it will be very difficult to find him later, so you should not miss this chance, and need to clearly explain to him that he does not belong here...
- Hey, stupid cow!!! - I shouted loudly, attracting the attention of the giant animal.
- Mu? - murmured Momoo with an interrogative intonation, looking at me.
- Yes, I'm talking to you. No more uncooked beef here but you! - I shouted with a smirk, amused by the facial expressions of this cow.
- MUUUUUUU!!! - Momoo, angry at my words, bellowed furiously as he began to rage in the water.
- Now that I have your attention, remember never to return to this island again. - I said, and taking out one of the guns, I shot Momoo with an electric bolt, using twenty percent of the weapon's charge.
Apparently not understanding my actions, Momoo looked at my actions with curiosity until concentrated electricity flew at him, from which he felt danger. Unfortunately for him, it was already too late and the attack hit Momoo directly, shaking him with a charge of about 10,000 volts. And the fact that he was in the water did not help him either.
- MUUUUUUUUUUU…. - There was a flash of light and an excruciating cry of pain, after which everything was quiet.
- Well, I think that's lesson enough. - I said calmly as I watched the well-done but still alive Momoo sink to the bottom of the ocean. When he wakes up, he will definitely want to be out of here, as far away as possible.
'So who's next?' - I thought as I jumped off the fence and watched another fishman emerge from the pagoda.
It was Kaneshiro, the goldfish fishman, the team's carpenter, and it looked like he had been hit by the explosion as well. Blood and wounds could be seen all over his body, and he was limping quite heavily, leaning on his sword in its sheath.
He struggled out of the building, and the next moment he noticed the body of his teammate lying to the side.
- TAKE!!! - Kaneshiro shouted with concern, and quickly ran to his comrade, spitting on his own wounds.
- Eh… - I involuntarily sighed as I watched the fishman with tears in his eyes check to see if his friend was still alive.
They are also living beings, and despite everything they have done, they can also feel love, grief, and other emotions. Here, rather, the problem is in their environment, which negatively affected their worldview and Arlong's stupid ideology.
But, it is undeniable that they are no different from me, as much as I hate to admit it. And now I feel bad….
'The whole mood for a fight was killed...' - I thought with displeasure, taking advantage of Nuki Ashi.
Instantly covering the distance to Kaneshiro, I knocked him out with a blow to the head with my stick and ended this heartbreaking spectacle that had a negative effect on my mood.
It's hard to think of these guys as bloodthirsty bastards when you see something like that...
'Now I'm ashamed that I attacked them. And now, I feel sorry for them…' - I thought with a breath, knowing full well that I would have to get used to such a thing.
There are no one hundred percent villains, everyone has their own motives and the fact that I consider them wrong does not mean that this is true. At least in the eyes of the other person. It's not for me to judge others, but in this world, strength is everything, and I will have to get used to overstepping the beliefs of others if I want to achieve my goals.
As sad as it is, I will have to harden my heart. And it's bad that I haven't done it yet, although I myself have already done several morally dubious things. Eh, why is it so difficult to be a good person...
At least there is always an exception to the rule. The most delicious is yet to come and I can take out my disappointment on it, without feeling the least bit of guilt…
'Just in time…' - I thought with a smirk as I felt an attack from behind.
Using Kuro's signature move again, I shifted to the side and missed a blow from a huge sawtooth cleaver wielded by a blue-skinned fish-man with a long saw-shaped nose that indicated his species.
When I looked at Arlong, who attacked me, I saw on his face an incredible rage and a desire to kill me. Dodging the sword strike again, I knew it was time to draw my own sword and show this fishman the true path of Force.
- Why are you so mean? - belching away so that the two fishmen wouldn't suffer from their captain's madness, I asked with a smirk, while stealthily pulling out the hilt of my lightsaber.
- I will destroy you, you filthy bug! - Obviously not in the mood for any dialogue, Arlong attacked me again, furiously waving his cleaver, from the blows of which, to be honest, I had difficulty dodging.
During our brief encounter, I was able to determine that we had roughly the same level of physical characteristics. Maybe my agility are a bit higher, which is not surprising given the difference in build between me and Arlong.
Now I have the physical strengths of Dick, Emma, a small bonus from the Outsider's Mark and the Mark of Tarakudo, and plus, my own characteristics, which I trained on Sixis Island and maintain with regular training.
I think this is a good result for two months, considering that before I was a completely ordinary person. I have already reached the level of Arlong, which by the way is much stronger, than the average fishman, and was a former member of a strong pirate crew.
Although, if you remember how Luffy defeated Arlong, then I probably still have nothing to be proud of. Especially considering the legacy that my body carries.
Luckily, it's only a matter of time and lottery prizes, so I'll soon surpass Arlong in every way (without the use of a diamond form and other such bonuses). But right now, it doesn't really matter, since my skills allow me to easily surpass this fishman, which I'm going to prove by testing the sword as well.
- Really? - I asked with a smirk as I assumed the initial stance with the Dark Saber created by Koushirou.
- RRRRRRAA, you're finished!!! - yelled Arlong, utterly furious, raising his sword above his head and trying with all his might to cut me with it.
This time, I did not dodge and stayed in place, waiting for the perfect moment to counterattack. Just when Arlong's sword was about to touch me, I activated the Dark Saber and swung it, cutting through the metal blade with ease and leaving Arlong without the hand he used to hold the sword with.
- AAARRRRGHGH!!! - Holding on to his cauterized stump, Arlong could only scream like a wounded animal. Basically, he was...
'Happened. Not in vain, I honed these movements so much. Koushirou was right, he just had to believe.' - I thought with delight, looking at the black plasma blade.
To be honest, I have a rather strong apprehension for this sword, as I know perfectly well the consequences of its inept use. I think you could call it a hidden fear.
And it's not that easy to overcome, at least not without the diamond form. This may seem silly, but my instinct for self-preservation disagrees.
On this aspect, Koushirou and I also worked, and he taught me how to get rid of the fear of getting hurt and trust in my own skills. A few of his students had also encountered this problem in the past, so he had some experience in this matter.
Although, my situation was much worse considering my sword. It's one thing to just wave it slowly it's quite another to use in the heat of battle, when you need to move at high speed and apply a fighting style. One mistake can be fatal.
It was difficult to overcome myself and stop feeling constant wariness. This, by the way, prevented me from fully integrating the lightsaber style with my fighting style.
But, fortunately, I decided to take a chance and I succeeded. A start has been made, and then it will be easier. I think the fact that a huge cleaver was rushing at me, quite capable of splitting me in half, only helped me. And the price of this was only the hand of Arlong, whom I certainly do not feel sorry for. Speaking of Arlong….
While I was here indulging in my thoughts, he had already recovered from the pain and instead of attacking me again, he made an attempt to escape. A pitiful act, but one shouldn't have expected anything else from this guy...
- And where are you going? - using the Blink, I asked, appearing in front of the pirates running into the water.
- Go to hell! - Arlong yelled, trying to bite me with his sharp jaws when he saw that I didn't have a sword, which I hid to make Arlong bolder.
At the same time, in the surviving hand, he held another pair of teeth, which he pulled out of his mouth. What an abomination…
Knowing perfectly well that he wanted to buy time in this way, so that he would have a chance to get into the water, where he would become stronger, I simply allowed him to bite me, activating Emma's ability just before the bite.
His teeth, although they have incredible sharpness, are clearly not enough to overcome the strength of a diamond, so Arlong lost his teeth, which, unfortunately, immediately grew. What can not be said about his right leg, which he lost after another swing of the activated lightsaber.
- I was asked to make you suffer longer, but to be honest, you already tired me. It's not as fun as I thought. So let's finish quickly. - I said calmly, ignoring the cries of pain and not letting the fishman touch me.
- I WILL KILL YOU!!! - With red eyes from anger (literally), Arlong promised, still not giving up trying to get to the ocean.
- No, you won't. Now, let's get started… This is for Umaru-san's son… - I said calmly, swinging the sword again, depriving Arlong of his other arm.
- AAARRGHHHH, I WILL KILL EVERYONE YOU LOVE!!! - Arlong swore an oath, which I successfully ignored.
- This is for Bell-mère… - I said, removing another limb from the fish-man.
- I HATE YOU!!!
- This is for all the inhabitants of the island that suffered at your hands... - I said, shortening the arm that Arlong had left to the very shoulder.
- I'LL KILL YOU!!! I'LL KILL YOU!!!" I'LL KILL YOU!!! KILL!!! ; shouted the fish-man, going mad with pain, who deserves what I'm doing to him now.
- It's for the suffering of Nojiko and Nami…. - I said, cutting off Arlong's beloved nose, and after crouching I added: - And this, personally from me...
After looking into the eyes of the limbless and incapable of doing anything fishman, I used the most sophisticated mental torture from Emma Frost's repertoire to completely drive Arlong insane and turn him into a weak-willed doll who will be in Impel Down for the rest of his days, every second remembering all the bad things he did to other people and remembering today.
Maybe I overdid it a little, but I don't want him to ever get back at me. Especially since this is the best punishment for this bastard, especially after what I saw in his mind. And to be honest, I don't even feel guilty...
Oh, I'm a strange person. Still not able to kill, but at the same time I'm so tormented by the person who made me angry. Especially, it looks strange after my reaction to the scene with Kaneshiro and Take.
I guess it's all the teenage hormones that make my mood fluctuate more often than Bobby destroys food...
'Eh, I should still start meditating the Batman Method to better control my urges...' - I thought, turning off my lightsaber.
Having processed all the useful knowledge of Arlong, which I will undoubtedly still need, I am heading to the pagoda, which will soon fall by itself due to the foundation damaged by the explosion.
'And what else of value will this hunt bring me?' - I thought curiously as I headed straight for the Arlong Pirates' vault.
