I'm Gecko Maria"
Nope not ringing any bells.
I don't care if you're the queen of goddamn England! You can't tell me what to do! No one tells Spike Dogtooth what to do!
Please! Just take me to see my dad! That's all I need! Just turn the boat around and we'll be there in two shakes of an agama's tail."
Aw, why don't you make me?"
Okay"
Upon saying that, she disappeared.
And reappeared behind me. Holy shit she can teleport..or move so fast even I couldn't see her..
Reptile style: first form, Crawling Agama.
Then she gave me a punch to the gut so fast I couldn't dodge it! Me! The MC! I couldn't dodge it!
What the hell?!! Where did this strength come from? Wasn't she the damsel in distress last chapter?
Whose writing this shit?!
I knew it was time to stop fooling around and I began trying to punch her but her speed was too great. Even greater than mine.At this point I knew I had to pull out the big guns,
Doggystyle style: sixth form, Rottweiler.
But she dodged it! Then prepared a move of her own,
Reptile style: second form, Cornered King Cobra.
She then straightened her hand to expose her fingernails, which suddenly elongated to form claws and tried to jab my gut with them luckily I read her movements and thanks to my... ability..I'll get to that later, I could see her movements now.
I blocked her jab with my hand and once her attack landed, it went right through it! Nearly piercing my gut! It was only natural I retaliated, but I had to make sure the boat wasn't damaged.
Doggystyle: fifth form, Chihuahua.
I then bombarded her with a series of punches with my left arm and since she was stuck to my left arm, all my attacks landed to do... no damage?! Huh?!
Reptile style third form, Shell shield.
Oh I see, she hardened her whole body to resist my attacks..that's gonna be a problem.im gonna have to destroy that shield without damaging the boat so Bonebreaker is out.
Ah idea!
I used my right arm to throw her high into the air and then..
Doggystyle: seventh form, howling wolf
I let out a powerful howl at her while in the air, at such a frequency it began to crack her hardened skin. Now once thats over, she'll come plummeting to the ground and I'll hit her with another Rottweiler. Easy victory.
Until she did something foolish. She clapped her hands together in the opposite direction of my howl and thanks to Newtons third law(Or was it the second? Ah whatever!) She came flying right back, resisting the force of my howl.
Reptile style style final form, Keratin knuckles.
She disabled the shield and came flying down, but not at the speed I wanted She was going to fast and from the looks of it, she focused all her shields power into her first, I knew I had no choice, I had to clash with her because if that attack lands, I can kiss the ship goodbye.
I jumped high into the air in her direction and prepared to clash.
Doggystyle first form Bonebreaker 5000
I had to decrease the power a bit so the shockwave doesn't destroy the ship.Then ..
BOOM!!*
Our attacks met and it was clear that I was losing as her first started to break my arm! I need to do something fast or else my arm's a goner.
Ah idea! I disabled by attack and grabbed her arm with that same hand, the with the last of my energy, prepared another attack, but with even more power!
"What about the ship?" you ask? Well thanks to the shockwaves of our attacks it caused to ocean currents to rise and push the boat a tiny bit farther from us. Far enough for me to attack without me worrying about it.
Doggystyle style first form Bonebreaker 18000!!
I sent my overpowered fist towards her face and I was assured victory!
Oh no...no no no..
NOOO!
What is this girl made of?
Just when my attack was about finish her off, she sliced off her arm! The same arm I was holding! And looks like she feels no pain from it! What the fuck?!
Now free of my grasp, she dodged my Bonebreaker and prepared her own final attack...
Reptile style fifth form, Forced Regeneration!
She then regenerated her arm and aimed it at my direction at such a speed it punched me with enough force to send me plummeting towards to ship.
But it wasn't over...
Maria landed back on the ship and from the looks of it, she was far from done. While I was at my limit.
No!
I wasn't about to lose to some lizard lady. How am I gonna take on the world if I can't handle one green girl?!
I prepared my battle stance and got ready to fight.
Are you sure about this? You've already seen what I'm capable of in my base form. How are you gonna handle me when I'm serious?
So this whole time she was holding back...
UNBELIEVABLE!!
Oh shut up and fight already! I'm waiting here! Unless your bluffing
She wasn't bluffing, I knew she wasn't but I still egged her on, while I'm at my limit and didn't have any energy for a special attack. but I wasn't ready to accept defeat.
We came running at each other, but before we met, I felt a slap on my face.
Spike! Your brain is not working!"
Oh it's you."
It was my conscience, a little version of me who often gave me advice, which I rarely listened to.
Hey man! Now's not a good time!" I told him as Maria walked even closer.
Actually now's the best time you fool! You're not gonna win this fight! Give up and just take the girl to her hometown before she destroys you!"
Hell no!
What?! why? Are you stupid! Do you honestly think you're gonna win this?
Of course not! I'm not an idiot! But it's my golden rule, Spike Dogtooth never runs away from a fight!
He sighed and smacked his own face in disgust.
What about that damn dream of yours? Shit! I shouldn't even be encouraging it considering what you're supposed to be doing."
Hey! I told you to never ever bring up my past!
Oh whatever, come on, can't you see you can use this to your advantage?"
H..how so?
Ah there we go. Listen, this girl is insanely strong! Wouldn't she be a welcome addition to your gang?"
Well I guess so."
Then how about we convince her by being nice to her.That can't be that hard right?"
What so you think I can't be a nice guy?!"
Well you're not acting very "nice" now."
Oh really? Watch me!"
As Maria and I approached each other, she shaped her hand into a fist while I elevated my arms. Just when she was about to punch me, I surprised her.
By giving her a hug.
W..what the hell are you doing?!"
Saying sorry."
What?!"
Yup. Now that you've forgiven me.."
And who said I've forgiven you?!"
Hey would you shut up and let me finish?!Since I'm such a nice guy. How about we turn this boat around and head to your hometown eh?"
You listen here, if you think I'm dumb enough to believe this little "change of heart" you've gotten well then..you thought right! Come on! Let's head home!" She said as she tightened her grip and began squeezing me.
And I kinda liked it.
I went to the front deck and grabbed the steering wheel and turned the ship around to her home to in..
Wait where do you live again?"
Oh Capo Initiative.
Oh..ok" I had a bad feeling about the place but I just ignored and pressed onward.
I then faced my conscience with a smirk and he just laughing and I was confused. But I'm sure you all got the gist.
I got played
THE END..FOR NOW!
