One Piece: Chaos Kong

With my exceptional marksman skills, I killed anyone who approached us from the front with a single bullet; Scar took care of any enemies coming from the left with swift ease as he sliced them with his dagger, while Grand crushed anyone who was bold enough to approach from the right. Just like that, the three of us easily dispatched the competition while scanning the arena, searching for the strongest and most problematic opponents we would face towards the end.

"See that guy, Trenza, to the left, the large one with what looks like tribal tattoos on his back?" Said Scar as he quickly sliced the neck of an approaching pirate before retreating back towards Trenza, who glanced in the direction he spoke of.

Looking toward the left, just as Scar said, I spotted a pretty large man wearing a tiger skin cloak wrapped diagonally around his back; he was brutal, going so far as to rip off his opponent's arms only to beat them with their own arms, a freaky sight. But most importantly, he was strong; being able to rip off a pirate's arm with one's own strength is nothing short of powerful, and from the looks of things, it didn't require too much effort either.

"Yeah, I see him; I hope you don't wish for me to fight him, Scar. He'll tear me to shreds, and that's if he's being merciful." Replied Trenza with a frown of nausea as she watched the pirate ruthlessly rip out one of his enemies' guts before swinging him around, using him as a weapon.

"No, obviously, not Trenza; I intend to take him; I would just like some assistance if he managed to grab me. I'm strong, but it'll be tough for me to break out of his grasp." Stated Scar with a shake of his head as he glanced back at Trenza before warily eyeing their surroundings.

"Yes, I can do at least that much, but are you sure you can take him? Wouldn't it be better and safer if Grand took care of him; he'd crush him with just a few punches." Asked Trenza with a raised eyebrow as she looked at the tribal man, while Grand retreated back once he heard his name.

"Heh, Scar can take him, Trenza; that man fights, relying only on his brutality and superior strength. Once he's forced to fight someone like Scar, who not only has decent strength but great technique and a calm mind, he'll be overwhelmed and not know what to do." Stated Grand in his deep voice quietly while confidently smiling as he looked at the ruthless tribal man, seeing him like nothing but a beast with no self-control.

"Besides, even if I wanted to take him, I don't think that would be best; I've got someone else in my sights, and he could be much more troubling." Added Grand lightly with a slight frown as he looked toward the right, eyeing a large blue man with black hair and a long, serrated nose.

"Eh, I guess you're not wrong, Grand; you two would know better than me; I'm more of a ranged fighter. Though who are you worried about, Grand?" Remarked Trenza with a nod as she fired Sunaipu, killing two approaching enemies with one bullet and still having enough force to lodge itself deep into the leg of a random pirate.

After I asked, Grand pointed toward the right, prompting me to follow his finger, only for me to lay eyes on a Fish-Man. My brothers and I had no problems with Fish-Man or any other species like most humans; it's just that I've heard tales of their might, and to say I wasn't worried about Grand would be me lying a little.

"A Fish-Man!? Are you sure you won't need any help, Grand? I don't know if you know this, but it's rumored that just the average Fish-Man is roughly ten times stronger than an average Human, and he doesn't seem to be average; in fact, it looks like he's even utilizing Fish-Man karate that I've seen Captain use." Stated Trenza with widened eyes as she looked at the large blue fish-man, who was punching the air, yet each time, he caused a few pirates to be flung off the arena and into the jaws of that massive shark.

"Heh, Grand can take him, Trenza; he's got technique, but considering he's a fish-man and above the water, he's probably never met someone stronger than him; he'll have no idea what to do." Remarked Scar confidently with a light smile as he glanced at the fish-man, finding his mastery of fish-man karate to be abysmal compared to Diddy's

"If you so say, but with you two both picking a worrisome opponent, it looks like I'm stuck with him." Muttered Trenza with a shake of her head before pointing her second pistol toward a young, timid-looking man at the opposite edge of the circular arena.

"Hmm, who? I can't see him." Said Grand and Scar, respectively, as they looked in the direction where Trenza was pointing, completely dismissing the young, timid-looking man.

"Tch, that young man right there; I'm worried about him!" Declared Trenza with a slight blush of shame for picking the seemingly weakest person, though the reactions she got weren't what she was expecting.

"He's definitely worrisome, despite looking so weak and timid; he's managed to last this long without getting killed. He's definitely hiding some strength or ability; I just hope he isn't a devil fruit user." Said Scar seriously as he eyed the man getting pushed around like a hapless child stuck in a crowd, yet not once did he fall over.

"Eh, r-really? Y-You think so?" Asked Trenza in slight nervousness as she glanced at Scar, who nodded his head.

"Yeah, he must be; be careful, Trenza, and if things get dangerous, don't hesitate to run to either Scar or I." Declared Grand through furrowed brows as he looked at the young man, who seemed to be on the verge of breaking into tears, though their words only frightened Trenza.

'You must be joking; I picked him 'cause he looked the weakest; now you're telling me he's actually a wolf in sheep's clothing!?' Thought Trenza angrily as he glared at the timid man, and although she wanted to deny her brother's words, she trusted them.

"Haa, fuck me." Muttered Trenza with a sigh as she, Grand, and Scar saved their strength while slowly whittling down their opponents.

Looking around, the arena was much different from what it looked like before; the previous grey ground was now covered with splatters of blood, some areas with more blood than others, along with limbs and decapitated heads lying about; a gruesome sight, one that I'm not wholly accustomed to, but I bared with it. The remaining survivors of this crazy event were very few, less than ten, and unfortunately, of the ten, all three people we were worried about were still present; it also wasn't a pleasant sight to see that they were all relatively fine. Luckily, we were the same, though that couldn't be said for the other three people; they were exhausted, injured, and on their last breath; they were going to die, so they weren't of much concern.

"Well, well, well; down to 9 contestants so quickly. Much faster than usual." Remarked Mirage with a raised eyebrow, who had been watching the entire fight from the safety of her comfortable room while Pill tended to her every request, even the more obscene requests.

"So we're free to go?" Asked Trenza with a smile, though all she got in return was a bland look before being ignored, causing her to curse in anger.

"Now, let's make sure the final act is interesting." Said Mirage as she pushed the button.

Shortly after that crazy old lady spoke, the floor we were standing on started to tremble before it suddenly fell into the ocean; Grand and Scar were quick enough to react by leaping forward, but I wasn't, causing me to fall with the piece of the arena.

"Eeek! I'm going to die!" Yelled Trenza in fear as she fell towards the water while seeing a large shadow appear, though before she could continue falling, she was suddenly hoisted into the air.

"Please stop yelling, Trenza; I've got you." Said Scar, hanging over the with Grand grasping his leg while he grabbed Trenza's arm.

Feeling myself touch the ground again, I opened my eyes and released a sigh of relief before angrily standing up and glaring at that bastard of an old lady who nearly killed me.

"Alright, you old bitch! I've had enough of you; once Captain gets done doing whatever he is doing, I will ensure he destroys everything you've ever built!" Yelled Trenza angrily as he pointed at Mirage before aiming at the large transponder snail and unleashing a volley of bullets, causing it to squeal in pain until it died while bleeding from various bullet holes in its body.

"Better?" Asked Scar with a wry smile as he patted Trenza's shoulder, hoping to calm her if just a little.

"Haa, yes, I feel a little better, though I'll only feel good once I put a bullet in that old bitches head." Replied Trenza with an angry sigh as she shook her head while Grand released boisterous laughter at her actions.

"Haha, that's my older sister!" Stated Grand with a large smile as he patted Trenza's back, using a little too much strength, causing her to fall to the ground.
