Blades were meting with speed that was almost untraceable for normal man noise was a symphony of clashing blades for anyone who lives for battle heard beautiful music and two combatants gmoving around were making a great view Dance of Death was it called by warriors.
Zack kicked man that send him back, but he used Zack's kick power to go back even further and slash in Zacks direction blade of mana fly from sword at Zack who answered with his own from Blue Flame.
Attacks connected clash of them made explosion that throw both further back heavy breaths heard some wounds could be seen on their bodies from fight but most outstanding was their smiles that shows pure excitement.
Then Zack made decision to use more powered moves making slash at man who use own sword to block before blades connected, Pirate feel an attack coming from the back and try to evade. Blade from back Wounded Pirates back making them bleed, but Zacks own blades were blocked when Pirate made distance and looked to spot from backslash come.
There was a disappearing shadow with shadow wword in hand. This attack was made for surprise attack It makes shadow soldier from shadow of enemy who will make one quick slash killing the enemy, but this pirate had good rank instinct and battle sens, so it wasn't as effective now when he knew of this move there is no sense to use it anymore.
Zack's call this move Shadow Dance to honor the first really skilled enemy he is fighting now.
"Some nasty skills you have there" Said pirate still with big smile but blood flowing from his backs was not good, he must give one of his own tricks.
He throws at Zack his blade coated with mana and dive to side Zack side steped blade but when it was behind him, he felt danger and made mana shield on back in last moment as blade exploded. Force made him lose blades, and good chunk of mana on shield that he made in last moment and throw Zack forward at slash of Pirates blade. Zack use next trick that he don't have as much control for now. He made pure mana blades from Flames and Shadows. Flame one met pirate sword blades broke from force, Shadow blade slashed through Pirate chest. Pirate go forward with force of charge, his face has smile of content how his life ends.
"That was great fight I will wait on other side brother looking for time when we meet again in warrior halls" Power leave his body and thud was heard when body hit ground Leader of Pirates was dead.
Zack fall on knees, heavy breaths were heard as he exhausted most of his mana.
He looked around Kakashi ends his fight and come to his side with 60 Soldiers and SDSs with Shield making circle around him to defend
"Are you alright ?" Kakashi asked Worry in his voice
" Yes I just lose too much mana go help in fight what is left is some normal Pirates even now I can defend myself and with this 60 man it will be safe" Said Zack
Kakashi look has concern but join fight again making it goes faster.
After 15 min fight ended Pirates were annihilated medics were running in every direction attending to wounded some lose arms or legs that was really bad.
There was almost 1200 Dead 3000 Wounded and 1500 Destroyed SDS
That was heavy loses but In this type of fight where enemy had so many troops and Mana users this was bound to happen.
Zack Though of making Mechanic Parts and Organic Parts for Troops that lost something in the fight but factory and clinic to make operations would be expensive.
Bacta can regrow Parts but as big as arm or leg will make much time also he need Scientist to start experiments with joining Biologic and Mechanics maybe even cloning that will take much time but possibilities of Machines thinking on Same Lvl as organic with feelings can make even new race, but it needs much of genetic material experiments and resources, so it is not for close future.
Troops search whole camp and found magazine with weapons and minerals and even some spicy Good money on Boss Safe and 10K Slaves In meantime, Zack drained all dead mana users going up to Low D and high D in Pure Blood Form
Kakashi go up to low E
Then Zack goes with pirate leader body to the highest roof and burn his body with his flame, this make body turn into beautiful blue colored ash that fly to sky
Zack was looking at this beautiful spectacle and remembered how many great warriors enemy and allies he sent off in the same way, only that who gain his respect.
"We will all meet one day again Brothers and Sisters with heart of warrior
to Feast and Cross our blades again in great halls of Glory" Zack then found
tear going from his eye
'Huh I become very sentimental it seems' When he turned around he saw Kakashi and many soldiers looking at this beautiful ceremony Ave and more determination in their eyes they all banged they chest with fist and bowed. (Zack made Great Crypt on Jawin 4 where burned remains of his soldiers were placed in palace of Honor and Glory, but ceremony like this that Zack made now were reserved only for Warriors(Mana users) that moved his heart or served under him).
Zack went Where Slaves get gathered and give them choice to Join or Return home this time almost 3K of Young People Join and were sent to academy.
Rest was drooped at Republic space.
