Seeing the vice-admiral, known as Dalmatian, walk down that hall, I furrowed my brows, and while I was tempted to follow him some more, he had pretty good instincts, and I didn't wish to unnecessarily risk being discovered; I was lucky enough there was a beam that I could hide behind, I doubted I'd be so lucky again.
'Besides, now that I've laid eyes on him, I've gotten an idea of how strong he is; he's powerful, but not the strongest one on this ship. My instincts warn me of someone slightly stronger than him on this ship.' Mused Diddy with a smirk as he leaped back to the ceiling and crawled down the hall, though he took a left instead of following Dalmatian, who went right.
It's been a little over an hour since I first climbed aboard this ship, and so far, I've found two of the supposed three communication rooms; this last one is doing a pretty good job of eluding my senses. I've been trying to discover the scent of a transponder snail in hopes that it'll lead me to the last room, but considering the two people who operate the communication room don't ever leave, it's not feasible.
Especially since a little while ago, I started to smell that amazing scent emitting from those man-eating islands; they're making it slightly more challenging to follow scent trails. I also haven't come across either Saint Xalrons or any CP agents; I'm not surprised I haven't found the celestial dragon since he supposedly never leaves his room, which is at the top of the ship, above the deck, a place I'm not going unless I wish to get caught. And the CP agents, I don't even know what they look like, so I might've passed them without even realizing it; I've only been paying attention to people's strength, so if I missed them, that probably just means they aren't a threat.
'Captain, how's the progress?' Asked Sebas, flying low to the ocean, following the ship from behind while carrying Grand, Scar, and Trenza; Mael and Freyja used their wings to fly.
'Decent, but not as good as I'd like; I can't find the last communication room.' Replied Diddy with a slight frown as he silently entered a room that two agents were guarding, though they were clearly doing a poor job at it.
Looking around and smelling the air, I found shelves full of bags of rice, food crates, and the scent of salt; seeing as I was in the pantry, I had half a mind to poison everything. However, I wasn't a fan of fighting like that; I wanted to win using my own strength; besides, I didn't have any poison on me anyway, so the idea wasn't even applicable.
Opening the door, I pointed my finger at a wall in the distance and fired a weak shigan, which distracted the two agents guarding the door, allowing me to exit and leap back to the ceiling.
'What about you guys, Sebas? You guys in position.' Asked Diddy while continuing his search for the last communication room.
'Not yet; we are following behind the ship at a distance; we won't get into position until you've found all the communication rooms.' Replied Sebas with a shake of his head while the five trailed about a kilometer behind the ship.
Grumbling, I spent a few more minutes searching the ship, specifically in spots that would be very protected, and just when I thought the last room might be above the deck, I finally found it. Approaching the room, I waited until no agents were in the vicinity before silently dropping from the ceiling and nearing the door; looking in through the small window on the reinforced door, I saw two people sitting in a chair while talking, but beyond that, I saw about six sleeping transponder snails, each with a different appearance.
Doing the same as I did with the other two communication rooms, I stuck my nail into the keyhole and wiggled it around before unlocking the door; breaking the lock mechanism so it wouldn't used again, I swiftly jumped back to the ceiling, just in time as agents turned the corner and walked down the hall.
'Heh, found all three. They're in the front, right side, and back of the ship, respectively.' Said Diddy with a feral grin as he quickly neared the ship's hull before cutting a hole and exiting the ship.
'Roger that Captain. Are you three ready? The fate of the mission rests on your shoulders.' Stated Sebas with a nod, his expression hardening as he turned and looked at Scar, Grand, and Trenza.
'Yes, Father, I've been training just for moments like these.' Replied Scar seriously with a nod as he squinted his eyes and eyed the ship they were rapidly approaching.
'Hehe, it's time to get our revenge! No one messes with a Frenzy pirate and gets away with it alive!' Declared Grand loudly with a slight smile as he flexed his muscles, ripping his shirt off, revealing his bulging muscles covering his body.
'Eh, I'm as ready as I'll ever be.' Said Trenza with a sigh; although she was slightly nervous, she was ready to fight just as fiercely as Scar and Grand.
'Hmph, I'm burning everything!' Yelled Mael angrily as he clenched his golden axe while flames spewed from his body, boiling the ocean water beneath him
'Heh, this will be an interesting battle. I just hope my opponent has good stamina.' Remarked Freyja with a hungry gaze as she licked her lips while eyeing the celestial dragon's ship.
'Hoho, I'm just glad I'm fully healed; I'd hate to enter such a dangerous battle while still injured.' Added Sebas with a slight chuckle as he fixed his attire and brushed his hair aside.
Hearing my crew, I laughed and no longer bothered to conceal my presence. Now that we'd found the locations of the three communications rooms, it was time to attack. Running up the side of the ship on all fours, I quickly reached the top, and as I did, I killed the two nearest agents before dashing through the ship, killing everyone in my path as I headed toward the front of the boat.
"W-What the!?"
"A-Attack! E-Enemy Attack!"
"Agents down! We've got Agent-"
Once I reached the front of the ship, I spotted a Vice-admiral, who quickly turned around and eyed me when he heard the various shouting; without any hesitation, he lunged toward me and attacked, though I snaked my way under his punch before kicking off his back. Landing in his previous spot, I turned and eyed the Vice-admiral, and not even a few seconds later, four more Vice-admirals arrived. I've seen Dalmatian before, but the other four are new to me; the five consisted of four men and one woman, and none were people to be trifled with; they were strong.
'Dalmatian, an ordinary-looking man, a man with several X scars on his face, a woman with a mole, and a man with glasses. The weakest seems to be the ordinary-looking man, while the strongest seems to surprisingly be the man with glasses.' Thought Diddy with a feral grin as he crouched down and eyed each one of the five Vice-admirals that surrounded him, along with numerous agents pointing weapons at him.
"I knew I'd felt someone stalking me; it was you, wasn't it, Chaos Kong?" Remarked Dalmatian with a frown as he eyed Diddy, who chuckled in response.
"Hehe, you're quite perceptive for being a dog." Replied Diddy as he looked at Dalmatian before pointing his finger at the ordinary-looking man, firing a bolt of lightning right at the transponder snail he was holding.
"Not on my watch; you're not getting any reinforcements." Added Diddy, and before anyone could react, they suddenly felt an oppressive feeling emanating from Diddy, causing the numerous agents surrounding them to collapse to the ground.
Spreading my Haki, I enveloped the entire ship and beyond, knocking everyone unconscious, including Janet, leaving only these five standing before me.
"Color of the Supreme King." Said the woman with a mole as she and the other four Vice-admirals' expressions hardened.
"Mini had mentioned this in the report with his battle against Chaos Kong; nothing to be surprised about Gion." Remarked the Vice-Admiral, wearing glasses with a vertical scar across his left eye as he looked at Diddy with a slight frown.
"Yes, I read the report as well, Cancer; he had mentioned his terrifying mastery of the Rokushiki techniques and his ferocity in battle." Said the ordinary-looking man with a nod as his eyes never left Diddy.
"Even so, he's foolish if he thinks he can defeat all five of us." Said the man with X scars as he unsheathed his sword and stepped forward.
"Hehe, you're right; I can't defeat all five of you alone. But you forget something, fool; I've got a crew." Declared Diddy with a grin as he eyed the five, who frowned at his words.
Just as I finished speaking, Mael, like a fucking asteroid, hit the deck right beside me; following him, Freyja gently landed on the deck to my left while Sebas appeared floating down shortly after to Freyja's left.
"Chaos Kong, the Insatiable Freyja, Grandfather Sebas, and a fourth one." Muttered Cancer, his frowning deepening as he observed his opponents
"Don't worry about us being down a person; as the Captain, I need to display my dominance, so I'll be killing two of you." Stated Diddy with a grin as he locked eyes with his two opponents.
