As he laid there with bandaid wraps covering his right side body. From his face on down he would only stare at the top wall. Not much of a sound came from him as all he could do was think. More or less he slowly lifted his right hand up as he saw blood stain marks on them. Arcologia has survived his latest fight but where has that left him. Besides half dead. It was not as if he got owned but rather caught off guard. However, he was not in a good mood.

What could one do if they lose all hope? Where could one go if they could not go home? Well, such questions are easy to ask yet so very hard to answer. But as he laid there thinking of all the people he met of all the people he fought. Just what did he get out of it. A reputation maybe how about friends or even more than a few foes.

Still, Arcologia could not help but wonder how could he truly make noise. It finally hit him. He needed to use his very mind and literal spirit. Hs hollows were his last chance to become a king. But for some odd reason, he has yet to truly start on that. Well then now was the time to attack now was the time to make his name known worldwide. But how could one do that one may ask?

That was simple take out an even bigger name. A small group of Deva's was known worldwide. But one name stood out to Arcologia the most and that was Giant Hambe.

These two had history alright, in fact, it was Hambe who told him to stay in Drum. It was Hambe who saved his life from a vice admiral years back. To make a long story short it was Arcologia who gave Hambe his third bounty. The man was in love with the woman who was to Wed Arcologia after all. But Hambe did not hold any ill will towards him. For he knew they could never be. Life was funny like that all Hambe could do is wish whoever she ended up with treated has he would love to do.

Lucky things worked out in his favor as it was Arcologia who claimed Zenobia heart. But upon learning of her death Giant Hambe cried.  One could only say to that who ever saw a giant man cry before. So pride of a man he was to Zenobia he had heart of steel. But to Arcologia he would be a tool of war. Only time would tell on that front. As Arcologia laid there with his eyes closed. Thinking of how to get such a man on his side made him laugh a little. As the last time, the two talked. Arcologia did not have a bounty and Hambe wasn't as big if a threat he is now.

But Arcologia had a secret weapon and that was his daughter. The one person Hambe said he will protect no matter what. "Acnologia Jillian Niellieil Alison Odelschwanck Cage baby girl you just have saved your father." As he laughed out loud with a sleeping Jillian laying right next to him. As eyes would open as he turned to stare at his Den Den Mushi. A call that just might turn shit his way for once.

It's been quite some times since Arcologia had made contact with this person. However, it's best it is like that. For safety reasons on both ends of this ugly deal. How this two met well it was a scary story, to say the least. Two blinded by hate individuals drawn together by the pure satisfaction of a thrill to kill. But that was the old Arcologia have this friend of his changed their ways or no. It was only one way to find out. As he stood up slowly removing his child from off him.

He would walk over to the Den Den Mushi smiling a sinful smile. As he fails out the Den Denushi started to ring. It took some time but he finally picked up. A heavy like voice could be heard on the phone. He smiled as Arcologia did not speak as well. As the two said nothing on the phone more or less thinking of their past history. Arcologia would try to hold in his laughter as the man, on the other hand, looks on at him from his head.

"So it been so long since we've last spoken Doll Maker. Tell me how have you been as of late. Wait wait don't tell me I know. Being dragged around by a warlord on top of that you got burned up." He started to laugh hard as hell at Arcologia. As Arcologia himself started to laugh along with him the man.

As he listened on Arcologia would stop dead in is laughter. "As I recall Jack it was I who saved you some time ago correct." Jack would then sigh, "and as I recalled most of the world thought you died 2 years ago. But we getting off topic here why do you call out the blue all of a sudden?" Arcologia would then touch his right side mask to which his face was burned under. "Believe it or not Jack I need you to help me slay a giant. You see now is the time to make my move."

Jack began to laugh at him but still thinking it was not too far off of a task. As Arcologia would continue talking to him."To be frank I'm at my wits end with all of this. But after this little big task, I promise my name will be out there. Not to forget I have a little business as well. It is picking up quite the clientele as of late. So tell me are you going to help me or no my old friend of mines?" Jack would stand up as he puts on his top hat listening to all Arcologia had to say. True he did save him once before and he was the closest thing to a friend he had. Jack would then pick up his wine glass and ask a simple question.

"Fine fine count me in now who is the unlucky person to meet their untimely end." He would say taking a sip out his glass as Arcologia voice echoes over to him. "Killing him is the last thing we will do if he doesn't come along nicely. But I need your help in tracking down Giant Hambe." Soon Jack eyes would widen as he spits out his wine yelling"GIANT HAMBE!!!"
