"The Captain? What?" God Serena questioned. Ban walked forward towards God Serena. August remained still, but Jacob pulled his gloves tight.
"Don't fight him." August said. Jacob nodded and put his hands in his pockets.
A realization hit Jura as he looked at Ban. He remembered Meliodas telling him about his old group known as the Seven Deadly Sins. Meliodas talked about one of them who he would drink with frequently named Ban.
"You must be referring to Meliodas!" Jura exclaimed. A smile formed on Ban's face.
"So you know the Cap'n!~♫" Ban said cheerfully.
"He is a friend of mine. We've gone on a couple of missions together. I believe he's brought up your name before. You are quite fond of alcohol if my memory serves correct." Jura added. Ban walked towards Jura and helped him up.
"Let's get a drink with the cap'n sometime!~♫" Ban said.
God Serena watched their conversation and a vein formed on his face. His sclera turned dark as he began to fume with anger.
"How DARE you interrupt ME?! THE GREAT GOD SERENA!" God Serena lunged forward at Ban with a clenched fist surrounded in flames.
"Purgatory Dragon Blazing Inferno!"
God Serena threw the punch at Ban's chest. Ban raised his right hand and caught the punch in his hand. The flames in God Serena's hand fizzled out as he stared dumbfounded at Ban. Ban lowered himself to God Serena's level and grinned.
"You call that Purgatory? That's cute."
God Serena suddenly felt a sharp pain on his left side followed by the sound of his bones cracking. Blood gushed out of his mouth and he was launched clear across the open field. 'W-what a monster…' Was God Serena's last thought. Jacob and August watched in silence as they looked at God Serena's limp body.
"That's one of the Capn's enemies down!~♫" Ban focused his attention on August and Jacob.
Jacob glared at Ban and began to walk towards him, adjusting his gloves. Ban grinned and cracked his knuckles.
Jacob lunged at Ban, making a quick jab at his face. Ban tilted his head to the right, the punch just barely missing his face. Jacob quickly jabbed again with his other hand. Ban tilted his head to the other side.
A vein formed on Jacob's forehead and he launched an uppercut at Ban. Ban took a step back and looked down at Jacob with a grin on his face.
"Gonna have to try a bit harder than that~♫" Ban commented.
Suddenly Jacob disappeared from view.
"H-He's gone?!" Jura exclaimed.
"Nahhhh." Ban said. He remained standing still in his spot. "He's right about…" Ban turned his head to the right and grabbed the air in front of him. Jacob suddenly appeared in Ban's hand as he was held by the neck.
"Jacob!" August pointed his staff at Jacob. A veil of magic surrounded his body.
"Here!" Ban threw a punch at Jacob, with it going straight through Jacob's chest. Jacob coughed up blood and his body went limp in Ban's grasp. Ban dropped Jacob's body to the ground and looked at August.
"Right through my veil?!" August questioned.
"I can tell you're pretty strong. So I'm just saving the best for last.~♫" Ban said. "Although I don't understand how you guys could have given Cap'n such a hard time to be his enemies."
Ban began to slowly walk towards August and August removed the upper part of his robe. His skin turned red and his hair began to rise.
"It appears that a comrade of Meliodas' is strong just like he is." August commented. "However, just as Meliodas is your comrade, Jacob and God Serena were mine. What you've done I cannot simply let go!"
August began to flare his magical power up and the Wizard Saints behind him remained frozen in fear. Ban let a whistle out from his mouth as he felt August's power.
Suddenly, August stopped flaring his magic up and both he and Ban looked to their side. Standing there was a lone figure with dark skin and blue tattoos, long dark blue hair, and wearing a black cloak.
"A-Acnologia…" August said.
"He one of your guys?" Ban asked.
"No…he's an enemy to us all…" August responded.
"How strange. I came here to kill a dragon slayer, but you've already done that for me." Acnologia glared at Ban. A smirk formed on his face.
"You seem even stronger than that blond demon I defeated. What was his name…Meliodas?"
Ban's eyes widened at the mention of Meliodas' name and a smirk formed on his face.
"I'm stronger than the Cap'n? That can't be right." Ban walked up closer to Acnologia until he was standing right in front of him, his taller figure looking down on the black dragon's human form.
"There's no way the Cap'n would lose to you.~♫."
