Chereads / Ballad of the Crows / Chapter 42 - Germa Kingdom

Chapter 42 - Germa Kingdom

In the North Blue the Shadow of Aghata was sailing.

Laffitte: Captain locate the Germa Kingdom, and it looks like the whole kingdom is united.

Van Augur: Captain Skypea's reinforcements have arrived, they are just above us.

Katahara: Laffitt take us directly to where the Germa Realm is.... Augur informs the reinforcements to stay at an altitude where it is impossible to see them.... When we get to the Germa Realm start shelling it at will. And have the soldiers come down only when we start the attack.

Laffitte and Augur only nodded.

They soon arrived at their destination

The architecture of the Kingdom of Germa is reminiscent of a medieval castle; the buildings are limited to towers, turrets, watchtowers or simply entire castles. Many of the structures end in curved and conical capitals, which complete the curved and rounded walls that emerge from the structures. With the exception of some trees and other vegetation, the kingdom appears to be built on platforms that are found as "ground" on each of the ships. As the pieces come together to form the territory of the kingdom, the masts and sails are hidden to allow the assembly of each of the platforms.

Nico Robin: The castle of the Vinsmoke family is the largest and most central building of the kingdom, in its surroundings there are other assembled buildings.

A few minutes later the bombardment of the Germa kingdom began, which took the whole kingdom by surprise.

Inside the Germa kingdom.

Vinsmoke Judge: We have a new contract, Ichiji you will take care of this, take part of the army and go.

Ichiji: It won't be a big problem.

Then someone entered the room.

Soldier: Sir, a pirate ship is approaching the kingdom.

Vinsmoke Judge: We know who they are.

Soldier: We managed to identify them, they are the Darks Crows, led by Bloody Crow Katahara.

Vinsmoke Judge: He's a nobody, I never heard of them, just sink them with the cannons.

Soldier: Yes sir.

At that moment explosions were heard in several places in the kingdom.

Yonji: What the hell was that.

Ichiji: Looks like that katahara guy has balls, to attack us head on.

Then another soldier entered.

Soldier2: Sir, they are attacking us from the air.

Vinsmoke Judge: What do you mean from the air? Everyone go out and kill anyone who dares to attack us.

At that moment a much bigger explosion was heard.

Vinsmoke Judge: Shit.

Soldier3: Sir the Dark Crow entered the kingdom and began to attack.

At that moment screams were heard from the sky.

Ships began to descend from the skies, with hundreds of men.

At that moment Niji was battling Laffitte.

Laffitte: Looks like our captain was worried for nothing.

Niji: Who the fuck do you think you are, you stupid fucker, you're all dead....Stealth

Disappearing from the scene.

Laffitte: This will be fun.... Shadow Hydra.

At that moment Laffitte's shadow began to take the form of a snake that split into 5 large heads with gaping mouths full of teeth.

Laffitte: Go ahead kid have fun, but don't worry my captain told me he won't kill you.

Niji: Kosoku no ken: Henry blazer.

He appeared above Laffitte while imbuing his sword with electricity, as he tried to attack Laffitte, being gasped by the shadowy mouths surrounding him.

Laffitte then appeared behind Niji and attacked him with his sword, while Niji blocked and attacked him again.

Yonji broke through a wall and separated Laffitte and Niji.

Niji: Yonji, how on earth did you get here.

At that moment Dabi appeared. Using Soru.

Dabi: Laffitte it looks like this guy interrupted your fight, he wanted to fight the captain and he was thrown all the way here with one punch.

Laffitte: Hohohohohohoho.....The captain is not someone you can take on.

Yonji then stood up.

Yonji: First I'll finish you off then I'll take your captain alive.

At that moment Laffitte threw a flare at Yonji who dodged it.

Elsewhere Germa 66 was fighting against Katahar's men. Germa 66 was being outnumbered even though they had numerical superiority.

Van Augur and Robin were facing Vinsmoke Ichiji.

Ichiji: I must say that this is unheard of, we never expected that a group of rookies would dare to attack us and the wildest thing is that they think you will win.

Van Augur: Robin don't let any attack hit you, with one hit it could leave you in critical condition.

Robin just nodded.

Ichiji: Let's see if you can dodge all my attacks.... Sparking figure.

A technique with which Ichiji performs a powerful blow in Nico Robin's direction.

Van Augur: Energy cannon.

The tip of Augur's rifle began to glow blue, while a giant ball of energy was formed and when it was fired it launched a large ball of pure energy.

Ichiji hit the energy ball with all his might. Causing a huge explosion.

Nico Robin: Eighty Fleurs Four Hands Shock

80 hands come together and joined them into four large arms, then hit with these at the same time.

Ichiji was being hit by the 4 giant arms while being hit by the energy bullets sent by Augur.

Ichiji was being cornered by his opponents something he had never suffered from before. Causing him to get even angrier.

Ichiji: Sparking.

While releasing several beams of light from his hand in a fast movement, which went through Robin's hands and then impacted with Augur's energy bullets.

Then the 3 began their confrontation in the midst of cannonballs falling around them.

While Katahara and Drust continued their way to the Vinsmoke castle with 300 probes next to them.

At that moment Vinsmoke Reiju appeared along with a hundred soldiers.

Reiju: It was a mistake to attack us and they will die for it.

Katahara: Vinsmoke Reiju the most empathetic and kindest of the kingdom Germa....

At that moment he threw a kick containing poison at katahara, which was blocked by Drust's scythe containing one more veveno.

Katahara: Listen to me for a moment Reijuz I am here because I want the best for this kingdom.

Reiju: as if I would trust you.

Katahara: Your brother Sanji trusts me.

He obviously lied just to avoid an unnecessary fight with Reiju.

Reiju: Sanji... How do you know that name.

Katahara: You think I'm stupid, the most despised brother, the outcast of the Vinsmoke family.... then we can have a conversation.

Reiju then nodded.

Katahara: I just want the Germa kingdom to help me with something.

Reiju: This is not the best way to ask for help.

Katahara: They would never have listened to me otherwise.... Your father is a fool and will only lead this kingdom to ruin... Why don't you...

He was stopped by Drust and Reiju's loud crash.

Katahara: Looks like you won't listen to reason, good for me.... Drust take care of it, but don't kill her.

Reiju: She won't get the chance, once I'm done with you you'll follow.

Drust: Let's see how this ends.

At that moment Reiju launched a powerful kick that was blocked by Drust's scythe.

Reiju: Pink Hornet.

Reiju releases a stream of toxic smoke from his mouth, which penetrated Drust.

Drust: Interesting veveno, but if you want to use veveno against me, you picked the wrong opponent.

Drust just raised his hand and started to control Reiju's poison smoke.

Reiju was surprised why his ability was not doing any damage and instead was taking control of her entire ability.

Drust forwarded the technique to Reiju, who absorbed the poisonous smoke through her mouth.

Reiju: You're not very smart to want to use my own technique...

At that moment Drust started swinging his scythe at Reiju, who tried to dodge the cuts but still took damage.

At that moment Drust imbued poison into the blade of his scythe and continued attacking Reiju.

Reiju was surprised by Drust's poison handling, which caused him to become more interested in his opponent.

Reiju: Your poison handling is not something I've seen... Interesting while, Kyahahahahahaha.

Drust didn't pay attention to him and continued his attack to Reijua which also counter attack, the clash of their attacks was so strong and fast that no Germa 66 soldier or Katahara's soldiers, also the amount of poison released by Drust was not something that everyone could withstand.

Then katahara started to use his observation haki to manage to find Vinsmoke Judgez when he found him he went in his direction but was greeted by a powerful kick, katahara was able to defend himself in time but was still sent straight into a building by running through it.

Katahara: I expected nothing less from Vinsmoke Judge, the king of the Germa Kingdom, the supreme commander of Germa 66 and the patriarch of the Vinsmoke family.... I hope you won't disappoint me.

As he rises from the rubble and unsheathes his katana.
