Gorilla looked at Maya. Her sword had blood, her clothes had blood. "You must be after the prisoner," Gorilla said again.
"I am here to save Robin, please let me through," Maya requested.
"As you are a pirate, I cannot, surrender now," Gorilla replied.
"My Captain gave me an order to save our crew member, sister," Maya replied.
"Then I will have to take you down by force," Gorilla said. "Gorilla Grip Slash," Gorilla added as he gripped his sword with both hands. He brought the sword down in a powerful, overhand slash.
Maya gripped Eros Edge and blocked the attack. She slid backwards from the impact however held her ground. Maya jumped back. She looked at Gorilla.
"I have been training since the clash with Demon King Ben," Gorilla said. "You had humiliated the Marines and me," he added. "I will take you down and serve justice," he said.
"Justice, I have heard of that before from you guys," Maya said. "Hex`s Fire," Maya said as she scraped the sword on the ground. The friction created a black-colored flaming projectile that she launched at Gorilla. Gorilla saw the attack. He put his sword up to block the attack. The black-coloured projectile hit his sword. He tried to control it however it was too much and he slid back and hit the wall.
"Cess Thrust," Maya said as she dashed forward. She held her sword and delivered a horizontal slash on his chest. Gorilla spat blood out from the attack. He could see a large mark on his body. He also saw blood however he was not going to give up.
"Jungle Fury Barrage," Gorilla said as he unleashed a rapid series of wild, unpredictable sword strikes from multiple angles. Each swing came with the force of a battering ram. He aimed for Maya. He was going to defeat her.
"Cess Barrage," Maya said as she advanced swiftly, her sword flashing in a rapid series of slashes blocking and countering each Gorilla sword attack. They both clashed and there was a spark in each of the clashes. Maya could feel her body getting tired. She was bleeding slightly. She had not fully recovered from the last battle. She kept clashing with Gorilla.
Gorilla put all his strength in the clash. He thought she was strong. He pushed and increased his speed and saw Maya was tiring. He stabbed Maya`s shoulder. Maya stumbled back and spat blood.
Maya was still a rookie with the sword. It had been a long time since she actually fought. "Cess Thrust," Maya said as she held her sword and delivered a horizontal slash on his chest. Gorilla spat blood. He got slashed again. There was an X shaped wound on his body.
Maya jumped back. She could feel her shoulder in pain. There was some blood leaking from her wound.
Gorilla dropped to his knees. He spat blood again. He thought of pirates attacking people. Robbing them, killing people, burning villages to the ground, he imagined. He thought these pirates were the same. "I am not going to let you pirates hit innocent people," Gorilla said.
"Mountain King Cleave," Gorilla said as he ran towards Maya. He swung his sword in a diagonal arc from the ground upward, using the full strength of his arms and legs to deliver a massive, cleaving strike at Maya.
Maya held the Impact Dial. Gorilla`s sword hit Maya dial and absorbed the attack. Maya held up and slid back from the force of the impact. She saw Gorilla was tiring. "Impact Dial," Maya said as the force of the sword attack was sent out as a shockwave.
Gorilla was sent backwards by the force. He went flying back. He spat blood mid-air as he crashed onto the wall. He hit the wall hard and damaged his spin. He spat blood again as he slid downwards. He panted and looked at Maya. He failed the Marines, he failed himself. She was strong, he thought as he closed his eyes and dropped his sword.
Maya let out a sigh of relief. He was down. He was not as strong as Jerry however it could have been worse. She had not recovered yet. She was about to move when she heard a voice. "You are still alive," Onigumo said.
Maya looked up to see the vice admiral walking towards her. Ben had warned them about him. She thought this could be bad. "What a failure," Onigumo said as took his sword out and stabbed Gorilla.
Her eyes widened. "Why?" she asked. She was horrified.
Onigumo smiled. "Marines must defeat and kill all pirates. He was a failure," Onigumo replied as he took his sword out of Gorilla.Gorilla fell over onto his side.
"You are a monster," Maya responded.
"I am doing my job," Onigumo said as he took out another saber. He held two sabers.
Maya held Eros Edge. "Hex`s Blast," Maya said as she concentrated. She felt the sword draw her energy. The red got brighter. Maya fired a red beam at Onigumo. It flew through the air at great pace and hit Onigumo.
Onigumo jumped out of the way, avoiding the attack. He dashed towards Maya and swung his sabers at her. Maya clashed with Eros Edge. There was a small shockwave as Maya slid back. Onigumo swung his sabers again at her chest. Maya blocked the attack. He swung his sabers down and Maya jumped out of the way. Ongiumo ran towards her and swung his two sabers. Maya blocked the attack however the force of the impact lifted her off the ground. She landed on her back.
Ongiumo stood over her and smiled. He was about to swing his sword down. At that moment, Alvida came running towards them. "Kanabo Swing," she said as she gripped Seraphina tightly and swung it with full force at Ongiumo`s back. It was a devastating blow which connected. Ongiumo felt the pain of the spikes hitting his back. He spat blood as he went flying out the window. He crashed and landed on the ground.
Onigumo got up. He thought, why was the attack more painful. He felt his strength all go away when the attack connected. At that moment, he saw a large shadow on the ground. He looked up and saw a large metal fist coming towards him. Onigumo's eyes widened. However it was too late, the fist came down and smashed Onigumo to the ground. He spat blood, his bones cracked by the huge fist. There were scratches all over his body. His vision went blurry for a second. He laid on the ground panting. Onigumo looked up and saw the large Mech. He got up and jumped quickly back to the window.
"Are you okay Maya?" Alvida asked.
"Thank you for saving me," Maya replied. She smiled back.
"We are here for each other," Alvida responded as she helped Maya up. "Let's go," Alvida added. Maya nodded.
At that moment, Onigumo jumped back. He looked at Maya and Alvida. He looked livid. "You both are not getting away," Ongiumo said as he sprouted 6 hairy arms on his back. They all held sabres. "You will all die," he added.
"Arachnid Pound," Onigumo said as he swung his sword and sent compressed air attacks towards Alvida and Maya.
Suddenly, Zoro came running towards them and jumped. He took out his three swords and took the attack. He deflected it away from them and landed on the ground.
"Zoro?" Alvida asked.
"I can take him, you go ahead," Zoro replied.
"Are you sure?" Maya asked.
Zoro put his bandana on. "I have this," Zoro replied. Maya and Alvida nodded. They ran out of the room and up the stairs.
"You are not getting away," Ongiumo said as he ran towards them. Zoro got in the way and blocked him.
"You have to face me," Zoro said.
