Massacre Soldier

After Kai and the rest finished their meals, they asked for directions to find the village where they could further search for the legendary cursed blade Shichiseiken. They left the town after that and moved deep inside the island.

"Are we going the right way? We've walking for 20 minutes" Bonney complained, before Kai signaled for everyone to stop with his hand "Do you feel something?"

"Someone's ahead" Kid confirmed using his Observation Haki as well. The group slowly walked through trees until they arrived at a large lake with an altar near it, while the village they were looking for was located somewhere near it.

As for the person they felt its presence before it was just a woman with a distinct long blue hair. She was swimming on the lake and proceeded to the altar on the shore where she placed three ancient orbs and did a prayer ritual. 

"You creeps! it's just a woman bathing!!" Bonney snaped at them before they were noticed by the woman. She immediately picked up the orbs and run away towards the village in panic.

"Oops…Now you scared her off"

"Don't oops me, you did it on purpose right?!"

"Who do you take me for? I'm not a damn pervert…anyway let's follow her, she's probably heading back to the village" Kai said, and they quickly followed her and in a matter of minutes, they found themselves standing before a small village hidden deep inside the forest.

"Intruders!! Intruders!!" The woman wasted no time upon arriving and she began shouting around the village, warning everyone about the incoming visitors. Though they are not to be welcomed as the people of this village just recently had a bloody and unfortunate incident that when a band of pirates attacked them.

"What is it Maya? What's with the commotion?" A tall muscular man with a dark brown hair asked her.

"Lacos-san, there are some intruders heading here! I spotted them while I was performing my prayer ritual in the altar, they were dressed like pirates and carrying weapons with them!" Maya explained in panic. She's the village's priestess, that's why she has that kind of responsibility.

"Pirates huh?" Lacos expressions turned serious, as the leader of the village's warriors he immediately called for the men to pick up their weapons and ordered the women and the elderly to hide inside the houses, getting ready to defend their village.

The moment the crew set foot on the village. The warriors stopped their way with their weapons drawn and pointed at them. 

"Halt! What's your business here pirates?!" Lacos questioned.

"It seems like we have a big misunderstanding here" Gin remarked upon observing the situation.

"We are not here to harm you" Kai calmly tried to explain the situation, but the villagers were far too cautious and didn't easily trust outsiders, and the fact that the crew were dressed like pirates and carrying weapons with them didn't help at all.

"You don't belong here! Turn back and leave right now!" Lacos declared while pointing a sword at their direction.

"I'm too lazy to speak to them. Let's just beat them up first and explain later" Kid cracked his neck and knuckles and then charged at the group of villagers alone, using only his bare fists he managed to beat them up to a pulp easily.

"…"

"A-AGHH…" All the warriors laid defeated on the ground with Kid standing at the center unscathed.

"You certainly have a big mouth for someone this weak" Kid was holding the unconscious body of Lacos by the neck before Maya who was hiding away with the elderly and women decided to show herself. 

"Maya wait--" One of the villagers tried to stop her but it was useless.

"Stop it! Please! Don't harm them anymore!" Maya ran towards Kid before she dropped on her knees before him, crying and begging for the villagers' lives "Please! I'll do anything just don't kill us!"

"Hoi, don't kneel for other people that easily, it's pathetic" Kid gazed down at her before he dropped Lacos and let out a loud sigh "Sigh…Whatever, I'm not even interested in killing a bunch of weaklings like you"

"T-Thank you!!"

Seeing the sudden development of events, Kai slowly approached Maya and reassured her that they were not going to harm any villager before he told her about the purpose for their visit "We are here looking for a blade called Shichiseiken, we heard it's sealed somewhere in this island, I was wondering if you know anything about it" 

Maya was taken aback when mentioning that name "Shichiseiken?!"

…

Meanwhile…At Asuka Town's Port,

Killer stood in his place observing the approaching Warship before he noticed a man standing on the prow, observing Killer from a distance before he suddenly jumped off the ship and flew in his direction at a high speed. 

Killer got on guard when he saw that "He's flying?!" or rather, he was pushing himself of the air itself with superhumanly strong kicks, allowing him to travel through and remain in midair for an extended period of time.

It's one of the Marine six techniques of 'Rokushiki', Geppo and the person was Akehende himself, he recognized Killer from a distance and decided to deal with him himself. his 'Justice' Marine coat was blown back by the wind, and as he got close to the ship, he kicked his legs at a very high speeds and strength, which resulted in a several sharp compressed blades of wind that flew towards Killer, threatening to damage the Victoria Punk as well.

"Rankyaku!!"

Clang!! Clang!! BAAAAM!! Killer skillfully used the blades in his Punishers to redirect them away, causing them to fly towards some merchant and civilian ships nearby, cutting them down and causing some casualties.

"BAAAM!!...GYAAAH!!!" Of course, the ones boarding them were innocent civilians, but Akehende wasn't bothered by that fact as he is a firm believer of the 'Absolute Justice', ends justify the means and the eradication of evil at all costs, even when it involves innocent death or immoral acts. 

"That was dangerous…This guy is no joke" Killer muttered with a serious tone of voice.

The Marine Warship finally made it to the port, as at least two dozen marines disembarked and moved to the Victoria Punk surrounding it. Seeing their actions, Killer jumped off the ship and engaged with them at once.

Kureha stayed on board and watched the onslaught with interest "Let's see what you got kid"

"Shoot him down!!" The soldiers pointed their rifles at Killer and fired at him without hesitation.

GUN-SHOT!! GUN-SHOT!! The latter gracefully dodged their bullets before cutting them down with his blades.

"AGHH!!--SPLASH!!" 

SPLASH!!

His speed and deadly slashes disoriented the enemy as he massacred them, this is why they call him the 'Massacre Soldier' Killer.

ZWOOOSH!! With his Punishers spinning, he mercilessly decapitated anyone who stood in his way, painting his weapon and the ground red with their blood before Rear Admiral Akehende flew towards them using Geppo and then interfered by unleashing several flying blades using Rankyaku again.

FWOOSH!! FWOOSH!!

"…?!!…Shit-!!" This time Killer wasn't able to react in time, and he suffered from a large cut in his back before he was aware of Akehende's attack and then turned back and deflected the rest of the slashes "That was close, he's using flying slashes so freely. This guy is no push over"

"Akehende-san!!" The rest of the lower ranking marines were relieved at his interference.

"I'll be your opponent, 'Massacre Soldier' Killer!" He declared while drawing the massive sword he was carrying on his back "Everyone, step back! You're no match to him!" 

"Hmph, I was starting to get bored from fighting these trash…Maybe you can entertain me for a bit" Killer immediately rushed towards Akehende slashing him around the neck while his Punishers were spinning, with the intent of decapitating him "Beheading Claws!!"

"Don't think that kind of attack will work on me!"

Clang!! Clang!! Akehende managed to block the attack with his sword before Killer kicked him back while performing a somersault.

"I see that you are quite agile, let's see if you could keep up with me…Soru!!" Akehende smirked before he suddenly disappeared from his position and reappeared in front of Killer in the blink of an eye, closing the distance while thrusting his massive sword at Killer.

"Two-handed Sword Style…Tempest Thrust!!" He proceeded to do a lightning-fast thrust followed by a spin, creating the illusion of a swirling storm as the sword moved.

SWOOOSH!! BAAAAM!!! Although he was incredibly fast, but Killer managed to react in the last second and by crossing his arms he avoided getting badly injured, although the sheer force of the strike sent him flying a few meters back until he crashed into a building outside the port.

With a firm look on his face, Akehende thrusted his sword on the ground before he spoke to Killer "You evil pirates have been rampaging on the seas for long enough, you and your captains must be put away in Impel Down where scum like you belongs…And I, Rear Admiral Akehende shall take that responsibility and arrest you here today!...And while at it I'm also gonna need you to answer some questions about a Marine Captain called Hina"

Killer kicked away the rubbles, spat some blood while slowly getting on his feet again "Faffaffaffa!! Interesting!...A Rear Admiral huh? No wonder you're strong…This one is gonna be annoying"
