Just outside the waters of Jaya Island [One wouldn’t be able to see the battle from Jaya] a large battle was unfolding with smoke flooding the air itself as the sounds of cannon-fire echoed throughout, vibrating into the very minds of all those who had engaged in this battle. The Battle of the Mountain Shot!.  Two fleets had engaged in battle with each other as two rival Captains had found their method of escape from the “first Category of Jaya” mirroring each other's to the point of finding their two fleets next to each other.. The battle fell into such a barbaric blood bath with all participants ravaging with anger for the enemy side and the intense motivation each captain had swelling through their veins as they felt highly offended by the other. Moments before the battle both parties and all their ships were somewhat merged together sailing in the same direction.. In harmony not even realising the other was their in fact they had just assumed their fleets had magically increased in number until there was a fight over direction and who was the real captain.. At Which point the two fleets opened into full out war. Neither wanted to admit how dumb they had been to their crew and instead acted as if this was planned and thus the world of pirates was hammed hard with a knife of tension as the first shots landed into the stomachs of each captain piercing their respective kidneys.

Meanwhile; Two ships filled with Marines, along with Commodore Victoria, Z ,Xayah, were heading towards the battle. totally unaware of its existence or what was in store for the group, as they slowly tranversed the waters. “So… Commodore what is our plan following the events on Jaya, are we to return to Alibasta as for the request of your former master… Roaringson?” Victoria sighs as she turns to face her Navigator Luke Airman. She was leaning back upon the wooden pillar that would be the mask of her ship and path to the crows nest above. Currently holding 5 marines armed with rifles. Clenching her fists Victoria was clearly expelling, a vicarious bittersweet rage, within herself as the emotions and disappointment of her withdrawal from Jaya, entagled her spirit. While she had accomplished several feats in the process her overall objective would be left pending completion. These emotions were radiating from her like a compelling aura, gripping the throats of the marines on board. This made her very unapproachable to the fresh faces, however, this feeling was even worse for those who knew Victoria well, because they knew she had the presence of mind to bury these feelings and emotions to prevent her surface from displaying such a mentality and thus the true volume was bubbling over. “Alright Victoria.. We will continue to Alibasta… what about the extra Marines that don’t belong to our group?” “See, hmmmm See if you can locate a leader among them and check with him”. Victoria would bite her lip as her eyes scouted around the ship while Luke Ticked off several things on the document he was carrying. “Oh and one more thing……..What about the Pirates we captured in connection to Phantom Raiders and those who were possibly involved in the plot against the world government.” Victoria would close her eyes and look within her mind, she knew this choice would not just reflect her character but, furthermore, set a precedent within herself. Victoria would open her eyes firmly as if a wolf had been newly born within her; “If they can’t provide anything useful, Execute them and drop their corpse into the ocean”. Two minutes later *Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang* *Bang*. A total of 19 shots were fired killing all the prisoners.

Victoria sniffs the air.. As something irritated her nose..opening her mind and grasping for her attention!..*Sniff* *Sniff*

The Battle of the Mountain Shot!

The ships had, overtime, gravitated away from each other, as the cannon fire recoiled backwards; this created momentum between the vessels pushing them apart. Metal crashed against flesh, relieving it from its chains as skulls and blood bounced across the decks of the ship. Others sailing right into each other for a rocking collision, with both vessels getting ripped apart and foruming unique platforms of battle, where swordsman, gunmand and rouge fighters rushed into each other. One would swing his large long sword into the neck of a cloacked fighter with nothing but his beard being visible through the opening, the sword would cut through the skin, shatter the bone and force the skull into the air, the same man would find himself, bombarded with a belittling of bullets as they caved into his entire torso. The man was quite the strong one, and, very resilient to the lethal damage he had sustained; thus was able to lunge forward with his last breath, thrusting his sword into the heart of the nearest man in front, before finally collapsing to the ground dead.

Most aspects of this battle were proveing to be isolated, however, in the very center several ships were slowly crashing into a network of wreckage. Planks creating unique paths, decks forming areas and fallen masks connecting even larger masses of wood. It was as if an island was forming in the middle of this conflict. On each side of the wreckage, a ship would arrive docking as the two Captains were now prepared to start a true assault on their enemy. Each Other

Victoria would finally find herself in view of the battlefield, or at least the smoke cloud that was engulfing it entirely, with the amount of cannon-fire that was being unloaded, each finding one target or another. Using observation Haki while also moving to the front of her vessel, placing both hands firmly on the wooden oak as she gazed forward attempting to pierce the vale of smoke as her face started to gleam with bliss. “Something, to unleash my anger out on… how delightful” “Mam?” “I mean Pirates ahead... “. Sensing the auras of those ahead of her Victoria could tell only a few meters within the smoke would be 2 vessels where two fighters had already engaged in combat. A large 7ft tall muscular guy armed with one War Hammer and one War battle axe, against a 6ft2 man wielding a single katana, they were both covered in blood and were fully enjoying the fight at hand despite the death of a vast amount of Pirates at their feet. “I’m going to crush you Femination Scum” “Oh.. I’m offended.. I will ripe your heart out and shred it like pigs backside” “RRAAAA” “RAAAA” The two fighters would continue in their fight when suddenly both of them would find their skulls being split open by a strange attack, it was as if a cannonball had just imploded their skulls but their was no cannonball to be head “Luck has forsaken of the sun…. They couldn’t even take one hit… so pathetic”. Victoria had used two rounds of Eakyanon from her fists using the air itself like cannonballs as she killed them both, and would continue to walk through their corpse caring naught that her clothes were gathering blood like a sponge to the ocean. She had dashed ahead of her crew at first opportunity in order to start picking off strong fighters engaged in the fighting. She had also ordered her two ships to lock together, using strong ropes to wrap around major pivot points; the mask.. the helm... the foundations and the tailgate.This order maximised awareness of each other, and made it easier forr herself to locate her own crew.

Victoria would move from ship to slip killing all pirates she found along the way, holding no respect for duels in process between those who would call themselves warriors, meanwhile her two ships slowly moved deeper into the fog. Slowly coming to the center of the battlefield where the two captains have engaged in with 2 squadron behind them. While on the outskirts of the battle the conflict was still raging as pirates continues to kill each other as Victoria progresses from ship to ship killing anyone strong she can find, this includes entire ships of pirates as she uses her abilities to remove vital parts to their construction or with sheer force of her strength.

At the heart of the battle the Captains are still unaware of the Marines presence and are still focusing on each other, as a group of 100 pirates march towards each other on top the manifesting island of wood. The Captain stand at the front of each body of 50, glaring into the eyes of each other knowing full well that their stupidity caused so many, so many of their own to die and yet their fate was forever set on this path. FIRE. A volly of bullets rush from their barrels through the smoking air and into the eyes, skulls and jaws of their targets. 15 pirates drop dead as the two groups draw swords. The two Captains draw their own unique weapons, the first being of the Captain Rhino wielding a large heavy chain with a weighted spiked steel ball at the end, while Captain burning was in fact a devil fruit user relaying on his ability to Rust anything he touches.

The sea is wild and the waves are high and unpredictable. The dark heavy clouds block the sun preventing even the slightest brim of light to shine through. Beneath the bed of clouds its dark. The rain is heavy and the wind is strong. Through the darkness the only light source is the lightning that shoots down. In the middle of this storm is a pirate war going on. Two captains were actually crazy enough to duke it out in the middle of this storm. One of the captains is Captain Rhino. The captain of the Rhino pirates famous for his feared large heavy chain with a spiked steel ball at the end. His enemy is Captain Burning. Captain of the Rusty Pirates. He at the rust fruit and is able to make every metal he touches rusty and destroy it.

The fight was already going on for a while now. In the middle there was a small island with all the wooden corpses of the ships that crashed into each other. Around the island are still several ships battling but this was the first time the two captains would truly clash. There is smoke everywhere and bullets are flying. Some are followed by a scream of pain as they hit their mark. Some fly around without hitting anything and eventually drop into the sea. The air smells from all the gunpowder, metal and blood. The vibrating air is filled with gunshots , clashing weapons, screaming, cannon fire and the sound of shattering wood

The 2 crews on the wooden island charge at each other with bloodlust on both sides. While the crews are fighting it's clear why the captains are the captains. They slay their enemy with the greatest ease. Eventually the 2 captains finally meet on the battlefield. Both catch each other with their eyes. Both of them scream loud the other captains name. Rhino: BURNING!!!!!!! Burning: RHINOO!!!!!! As they charge at each other. Rhino cracks the chain like a whip and like a snake the pointy ball flies in the direction of Burning's head. Burning rolls forward doding the projectile. At the same time he gets himself closer to Rhino to make his chain less effective and maybe even grab his chain to destroy it. Unfortunately he misses that chance. Rhino keeps his distance and pulled the chain back before Burning could get his hands on it. Burning curses. Rhino laughs. "Do you think I didn't know about your ability? I will not make it that easy for you!" He swings again. Burning gets himself ready to dodge but during his dodge Rhino swings the chain in a different direction. Now it was going from the front like a jab/stabing attack. Burning gets hit. He is pushed back due to the force and weight of the steel ball. He pushes himself and is able to stop it. WIth his hands he grabs on to the chain and laughs. "I got you now Rhino!" Burning activates his ability to star rusting the chain. Unfortunately nothing happens. He looks surprised. "What ? How?" Rhino laughs as he pulls on the chain. Burning is launched into the air with the spiked ball. Rhino then swings it down and slams Burning into the ground.

As Rhino pulls the chain back leaving Burning in the middle of the battlefield. Burning stands up coughing up blood. "I used the power of my haki to infuse my weapon and make it immune to your rusty powers." "I see well I guess I will have to get serious too." He closes his eyes to concentrate. Rhino launches his next attack. Then suddenly Burning moves and dodges the attack by using his own haki of observation. He uses it to close in on Rhino and punches him in the stomach. Burning uses his own Armament haki on his fists and delivers several punches giving Rhino a beating. While Burning is punching Rhino pulls on the chain and the spiked ball hits his enemy in the back. Burning screams loud and Rhino makes use of this moment to kick Burning away from him.

The two captains stand on opposite sides. The tension is high and everyone around them can feel it. These two were evenly matched and would have one hell of a showdown. The fight had just begun and looks like one hell of a showdown, however, just as they move in to engage with the remaining skeleton of a crew behind them still alive.. A total of 43 a shout echoes throughout the pirate groups “MARINES” *BANG. BANG, BANG. BANG...BANG...BANG..BANG*. 12 of the pirates drop as two barrages impact the group. The marines had slowly approached the battle forming two lines as they aimed forward unnoticed as they awaited Commodore Victoria Order...which was given. “Fire”.

Luke.. the navigator of Victoria Battalion shouts out… “WE ARE ONTOP THE KNOCK UP” Victoria turns to face him “The what up now?” “The Knock up Stream….,, its a powerful burst of water that shoots to the sky.. Its been rumored to either kill you or take you to a an island in the sky!!” Sounds more likelly to kill than to take you to a magical place.. “EVERYONE BACK TO THE SHIP.. WE ARE LEAVING”. Victoria would say and as such her marines would make their way back to the their respective vessels.

20 minutes later.. The burst of water would spring from the ocean and shoot off like a ballista piercing into the sky, every ship outside of the eye of the storm.. Would be totally ripped to shreds, however, three vessels would find themselves riding the massive beam of water towards the sky, Victoria would Manage to force all her crew within her vessel to prevent anyone from falling off as only herself and Luke were able to maintain their core foundations. The other two ships were of the two pirate Captains and their skeleton crews. Captain Burning would use his rust rust abilities to rust his feet slightly into the ground giving him full support as he walked around his ship like normal, Captain Rhino would simply wrap his chain around his mask and was simply dangling their while Victoria was standing on her mask, which was now beneath her feet. [Rhino]“You Stupid MARINE STAY OUT OF OUR FIGHT” [Victoria] “SURRRE… DO WHAT YOU WANT” [Rhino] “THANKS” [Burning] “Are you stupid… do you know who that is?” [Rhino] “Of course,”. Victoria would think to herself “ These two are complete morons, and I bet their weak two”. The battle continues as the group travels to SkyPeira.

The two pirate crews momentarily stopped fighting as they also knew what the knock-up stream meant and thus returned to their ships.

As the three ships travel upwards from the powerful stream.. And powerful winds pushing them up, waves and waves of wood pass by them going up like raindrops, some with even enough mass to create a stable footing. Captain Rhino swing himself to one such plank and begins traveling faster upwards Captain Burning, swinging his ball and chain behind him, creating a makeshift wind turbine accelerating him even faster. His eyes open wider and grow red, his blood pumps faster with adrenaline “I’m gonna kill you Captain Burning.. Painfully” Captain Burning slowly walks to the bottom of his ship and looks down at the approaching Captain Rhino and begins laughing “You look like an ant, all the way down their.. I’m going to rust your face…” Burning would turn to his Right “After i’m done with him.. I’m going to kill you” Victoria would raise an Eyebrow “Did you just threaten me?” Victoria was already annoyed that she was required to wait due to the request of a Captain, and in the current situation she would admittedly find it difficult to Fight two Captains and keep all her crew alive. “No that was a Promise”. “Well lets speed up your fight then”. Victoria would thrust her fist forward towards the feet of Captain Burning unleashing an Air Cannonball, smashing the ground that was keeping him secure.

Just like that Captain Burning was falling towards the ascending Captain Rhino “Are you really going to take advantage of her interference?” “Sure its a pirate battle, it doesn’t have to be Fair” “You disgusting runt”.
