'Puru Puru Puru', the sound of the Songbird's Den Den Mushi rang from his castle located on Iron Lotus, Egypt. Junbei slept peacefully, snoring sounds that could've been likened to the rarest of wildebeests. With his Funky Jammer piano guitar resting ontop of his chest and mangled satin sheets concealing the Auburn Songbird like a butterfly, nothing in the world could've possibly ruin the Yonko's peace of mind. Until now, the sound of the obnoxious snail phone penetrating into the deepest realms of his subconscious. Providing backdrop for the current images of a younger Junbei, starving on an abandoned isle, the faces of his once blurry memories pertaining to his parents, now crystal clear like high definition television. Returning to the world of the living, the Songbird Commander and Chief, turned to his left, reaching towards the snailphone, in a much annoyed manner, responded, "Huh?" Junbei answered still dazed and sleepy as a dog. "Ah! Sorry for waking you up Junbei! Damn it, I knew I should've sent Charlotte. Well, I got you now. We have a 'situation' on Momo Botan." Daisy reported. "Eh... Did the Revolutionaries and Freedom Fighters get into a squabble again... Just send the Pacifista." Junbei said, pushing the phone from his ear about to hang up the phone. "It's The Frog." Daisy simply stated. His eyes opening wide, Junbei placed the transponder back to his ear, "Rishi Rishi... Oh my. A billion dollar pirate... Last time I heard he was defecting to Oceanus's camp right?" Junbei inquired. "I'm not sure what you pirates are about... To be honest, since the death of Wallace a few years back... I haven't had much contact with my Cipher Pol contacts. I will say this, he's a dangerous man Junbei. And from the looks of the cameras, he's already placed one arrow into a Fishman's eye." Daisy commented, watching the action in real time. "Fishman... Must be a few of Oceanus men. This is bad." Junbei thought. "Ahh... I've finally managed to stabilize operations on Momo Botan... Now another Yon- No, the damn Pirate King's men are mucking around in my turf. Alright. Alert Juju and his militia to neutralise the situation... I'll be there in a few." Junbei said, hopping up from his Ancient Chinese themed bed set.

Moments later on Momo Botan, as the second arrow penetrated the eye of the second Fishman, only the eel warrior was left within sight. Juju, commanding an army of one hundred(T1) Tres Militia, Griffin(T3) overseer of the Naval forces on Momo Botan and Caprice, another one of Junbei's core crewmates arrived on the scene, separated from the action by about eighteen meters, circling around the incident, attempting to establish a perimeter. "Hoho... It seems Oceanus men slipped through the security checks." Juju commented. "We never took in account for Fishmen before... However, their signatures were picked up on the Echolocation Map, we've been tracking them since them and their main forces docked off the coast of the Iron Islands. To make it through those bed of raging Sea King's, they're brave." Griffin, the Naval Officer commented. "Junbei's never going to get over this, damn it. We've been making mad coin over the last few years." Caprice commented. Within moments, Junbei would arrive on the scene, it was only a matter of seeing what The Frog's next move would be and if the remainder of Oceanus force would reveal themselves. Chiming in on the Den Den Mushi, "I repeat. Do not kill anymore of Oceanus men." Daisy pleaded. "If Junbei was to make an enemy of Oceanus at such a crucial moment-" Daisy panicked, her words cut off by Caprice ending the transmission. Both Juju and Caprice grinned, "As if our Captain cares about formalities among pirates. That's not the freedom we soar for." Juju and Caprice announced in unity. The clouds brew slowly for rain, the Songbird glides through pockets of sound in the air.

♩

After gradually gliding for a few meters, for the first several minutes, Junbei began to establish a route towards Momo Baton, which was located, East South East from the Iron Island of Egypt. As the overcast skies set in, the cold humid air ruffled the tobacco's lovers cancer sticks into ocean, however urgency was of immense importance. Hastening the pace, Junbei began to approach speeds nearing that of sound, however, urgency had liken him to activate his Kenbunshoku Haki at around 100km from the Iron Islands. According the remainder of Daisy updates during the steadier moments of his initial flight, the conflict was occurring in a location in vicinity of the port area, where trees as tall as great oaks, were sparsely separated eight meters at length, creating a few open clearings for transit, before entering into the Iron City's, more modernize areas. The next sequence of events would affect all in question, for much as the heaven's bless the mortal realm with nourishments of water and sun-rays, the Songbird's Power would discriminate no man or many, as fate unfolds. Even the concealed couldn't hide from the trickle of the heavens, once the soil's surface had been seeped into.  


Within moments, figures in the distance at 400 Meters away appeared to be clashing in the far distance. Feeling their auras, the Songbird Captain zero'd into all parties present on the battlefield, inspecting the incoming attacker towards Mavis' aura, at this point, it was still a steady ten or so meters before the distance between his nakama's known aura, with malice, and the unknown would likely make contact. Perched directly thirty meters above the ground's surface, slightly above the peak of the trees tops the Songbird's motion de-buffered(Tier 4), placing him directly above the conflict. With a bird's and mind's eye view, the Yonko descended. At steady speed indicated, landing about five meters from Mavis who was to his south, and his men who'd form an encirclement around the Fishman party. Among the familiar auras, about eight meters from his current position to the east, oddly dispositioned from the Fishman attacking his pack and Mavis, were two signatures whose auras stunk of unknown mixture of fear and malice. However, at the corner of his eye, at first glance, it seemed nothing was occurring. Without hesitation during his ocular miscalculation, Junbei released his Haoshoku Haki, making the air tremble in it's wake. His aura carried a very simple message, those not among his aura's chosen would falter, as the thirty meter circumference dome which would attempt to ripple through those of weak will scene or sealed, of course, if uncontested. However, had Junbei's landing be interrupted, a much more hostile approach would occur, startled, the Auburn Songbird would attempt to disburse a sonicboom field encompassing forty diameters, which if uncontested would release shockwaves crippling all in it's wake before assessing the situation.

♩

Upon touch down, the Emperor's Haki wiped out the remainder of the forces in the area, aside from one, the Fishman who was attacking Mavis. Raising his index finger towards the Fishman, who was approximately eight meters, as stated from Junbei's position approaching Mavis, with only two meters remaining, the Yonko's fury rampaged. At the angle he landed, Junbei sat diagonally from the approaching Fisherman's location. If uncontested, gunner's assailant's dome would cease to be put together, actually, the force of his attack would split Fishman's dome like a watermelon awaiting impact from a sledge hammer from the Auburn Songbird's sound finger-gun. Once successful, the Songbird would activate his Radar, to listen for any outside whispers or radio conversations. If the finger gun would miss, the Yonko would simply enter into his intangible state, dashing toward's the eelman at Tier five speeds, he'd launch his Blitz through the eelman's chest cage, if uncontested, the momentum would surely be enough to break the all vital organs within ten inches to the Songbird's impact point. His eyes glowing bright red, beings entered into the scope of his 750 Meter Haki range. The Songbird's and company's current location resides in the transitional area between the docks and the city's entrance(about 300 Meters away from sea force), a force of approximately fifteen to twenty or so Fishmen approached the docking area, via the Sea, managing to avoid the swarm of Sea King's that sat on the outskirts of the island. Their positions where South South East, about five minutes away from being two hundred meters away from the island.

Calling on his Den Den Mushi, the remaining naval soldiers manning the nine mounting cannons, received the Yonko's call. "Okay boys. No time for chit chat, Rishi Rishi. Fire at these co-ordinates." Junbei commanded. Relaying the exact location, the grunts where able to use the echolocation technology to pinpoint the Fishman's location. Within moments to the range point, activity was began to be noticed among the Fishmen. "Fire!" Junbei shouted. A bombardment of nine cannonballs was fired into the location of the approaching forces, if uncontested, it would definitely wipe out at least half of the unsuspected forces, who hadn't seem predict the action of the port Navy. Even with Kenbunshoku Haki, I'd take drastic action to escape the dockside strike, their positions clearly identified, as no Sea Kings dared to venture so close to the fortress. Once successful, the soldiers would reload and attempt to fire again, this time, changing the firing range to a ring like formation, trapping the Fishmen in a single area until the Yonko and his men arrived. Cautious, Junbei carried these out in actions mid-dash, with his feet in the intangible state, in attempts to take flight, grabbing onto Mavis and Caprice to exit the area. Juju would be fine, the remainder of his grunts scattered to man their stations, while about thirty stayed behind to shackle any movements of the passed out Fishmen, with steel chains, several Pacifista due to automatic response arrived on the scene, (four), if the passed out Fishmen were to make any subtle movements, a lazer would rip away the Fishmen legs, leaving the motionless if successful.

♩

The fifty foot tall man towered over the island, as his dingy orange coloured beard complimenting the rough texture of his scaly Fishman skin. As his mouth was kept slightly opened, General's finely toned body left many of the Freedom Fighters and Revolutionaries in the port area watching on with their mouth open widely. Accompanied, situated by the man's knees, at about 10-12ft in height, were three Hammerhead Shark Fishmen(Tier 5), each as physically built as Tidus, the Wotan who towered above the island menacingly. At about eight feet tall, Five Fishmen formed a perimeter around their boss, one Squid Samurai, Two Twin Catfish Fishmen, Twin Hammer Bearer Seacow Fishman and one Octopus Fishmen(Tier 4). Finally, now emerging from the water, were six Cuttlefish Fishmen, each who carried bounties over 200,000,000 Million on their heads, (Tier 3), known as the Cuttle Brother and Associates, each dressed timely in mafia attire. The Wotan, now affirmed that the remainder of his force had docked, shouted at the top his lungs, reassuring that the 'Pirate King' had no problem in these lands but came for the Frog.


Watching the Fishmen, who was referred to as the Frog dismantle the incoming tidal wave, Junbei landed, releasing Mavis and Caprice onto the Iron Island's surface. With his radar now active, meters backwards, Junbei could hear the sounds of his men subduing the already defeated warriors of Oceanus troops. "Rishi Rishi... So the rumours are true... he is running around labelling himself. 'Pirate King'." Junbei exclaimed, as Caprice was breathing heavily from the sudden jump off of the flight. Turning towards his person, the Frog uttered words of a race, launching himself off in the direction of the attackers, who'd now come up on his sonic Radar. Increasing his vision, the Yonko locked onto the Frog's pace, about fifty meters before he fell out of sight, which he continued tracking the man's motion with his sonic pulses. Grinning, "I just wanted to spend today lounging around making some new songs... Only came for the Frog, bullshit. Everyone knows-" Junbei's speech cut off by his next action. "Pin!" the Auburn Songbird thought. At Tier 5 speeds, Junbei's body blended into the furthest travelling sound pulse from his active Logia radar, which spanned one hundred and fifty meters, transmitting Junbei one hundred and fifty meters almost instantly in literally a few seconds. Using this time to spin his Blitz Sticks, centring his concentration, Junbei hopped once again, appearing this time, ten meters away, in front of the Fishman Army. "It'll take my men about nearly forty-five minutes to make it here..." Junbei thought, closing his eyes to scan the area for The Frog's aura, who'd leaped moments before him. "YONKO JUNBEI VON ECHO! THE RED KING!" the giant Wotan shouted. "I SEE YOU COME ARMED-" the Wotan shouted only to be interjected by the Yonko. "Ahh... Not to cut you off but could we use our inside voices... I'm literally right in front of you." Junbei commented condescendingly. The minor members of his crew, minus the executives began to chuckle slightly at the Red Head's statement. "SILIENCE! I mean, silence." the Wotan said correcting his tone. "My name is Tidus. I'm one of the Pirate King's Original Generals, Tidus The Tank, The Fishman who these puny humans have placed a mere 1,200,000,000 Beli on." Tidus stated, grinning his teeth. His head peering downwards to the Yonko's current position, with a simple flicker of his arm, he could close the distance between the two in an instant. However, Junbei paid carefully attention to each of the Fishman's heartbeats, joint sounds and overall being in conjunction with his Kenbunshoku Haki.

"I know who you are. And as much as I'd like to believe that Oceanus sent you here without any intentions of destroying or harming my men... The reality is this... It's no secret Oceanus has a hatred towards humans." Junbei said crudely. The expressions of all the Fishmen around Tidus' legs changed immediately, at the sound of the title human. "You might've came for 'The Frog' and he too, though until today I've never seen him... has a pretty high bounty on his head. However, you coming here saves me a trip in saying this. Tell Oceanus to go fuck himself, I'm going to be the next Pirate King." Junbei declared. At the end of his sentence, a fleet of Cuttlefish approached at tier four speeds, extending their face tentacles covered in deadly toxins, to ensnare the Red Head. "You fools! Get back here now! He's not a man touchable by regular physical means" Tidus commanded. At the instant the Fishmen moved, Junbei began to disburse sound-waves so swiftly, their motion created an outreaching forty diameter wide shockwave, almost twenty meters (64 feet) in height. At the speed the Cuttlefish advanced at, it'd be as if they crashed into a moving freak train moving a thousands of miles per hour, mirroring that of Hasshoken waves would crush the bones of almost every bone in the moving Fishmen's bodies, if uncontested. If successful, the Yonko would hold firm in his position for any further movements, if the shockwave didn't cease the CuttleFishmen's movements, Junbei would release a second shockwave.

♩

Moments before Junbei's shockwave, the Frog arrived on the scene, picking up his comment about him being a speedy little fly. Grinning slightly, the Yonko would retort by doing a slight bow, "Why thank you, Rishi Rishi." Junbei said, chuckling it off. As the six CuddleFish fell to their demise, the shockwaves not only deafened the Fishmen but shattered every bone in their body. However, the Wotan and the more experienced warriors in the group, hardened their bodies with Bushoshoku Haki, cutting down the concussive force of the shockwave, however, Junbei's sound shockwaves had an additional kick to them, the vibrations were able to make contact against the Fishman Armies bodies, revealing the frequencies at which their various anatomies radiated at. Breathing slightly gassed, "I agree. At this point, though I'm pretty sure the men at his feet are more than capable of putting up a great fight also... It's in our best interest to find a sling shot for goliath." Junbei stated. From the army, the Sharkmen remained unscathed from the shockwaves, their tougher than Titanium (eninforced with Color of Arms) skin gave, both them and Wotan protection from the initial impact. The arrows made contact on the exposed areas of the Sharkmen's bodies which weren't fully coated in Busoshoku Haki. The Outer Four man elite guard also tried their best to fully avoid the shockwaves but their insides were left to ruin with internal damage but willpower along kept them alive. Before Wotan's attack commenced, the giant's movements winding up for impact, the Five Inner Guard made a mad dash towards Junbei and The Frog's current positions. Actually, it seem uniform in a sense, their movements, however, to Junbei's perception, everything played out in almost slow-down high definition movements. First to make it ahead of the pack was the Squid Fishman, who'd drawn two blades, coating them in Busoshoku Haki. Lunging into mid-air, about three meters off the ground, the man announced his plan proudly. "Logia's are nothing on these seas once I have my haki activated-sulo." The Squidman shouted proudly, attempting to slash downwards and open a gash in the Yonko's shoulder. Junbei simply grinned, "Who." the man simply mouthed, activating his Busoshoku Haki to cover his whole upper body, including his right arm and left arm, along with his head. "Do you think I am?" Junbei said grinning, as the man's Titanium hardened body shine glistening as the Squidman's blade broke. "Your right... I won't let this island get sunk by his attacks. I'll hold em' still. " Junbei concluded. "I-I-diot! You think a mere shield is enough to scare me-" the Squidman and for the lack of the better part, the other warriors, the Octopus, Catfish and Seacow almost instantly reacted to the Yonko's next motion. Without even moving from his current position, he'd not only disarmed the Squidman, no he'd even made the remainder of the lesser Fishman guard retreat. Using his Conqueror's Haki, Junbei projected the feelings of 'Piss Off', which expanded over a thirty meter radius, the Fishmen and Wotan rejected the rush, however, the five Fishmen took tail and retreated. However, blind fear is careless, which leads to death often. As the Fishmen retreated with no direction in their movements or escape route, they found themselves in the bellies of the eighty foot Sea King, which plagued the waters surrounding Momo Baton.

Pissed at the development, "HANDLE THE FROG. I'LL RIP THIS BASTARD TO PIECES. YOU DARE DEFY THE PIRATE KING, THEN YOU WILL DIE!" Wotan shouted. As the man's Busoshoku Haki coated armed winded backwards about fifteen feet, the man launched off his fist like a giant aeroplane, approaching with immense speed. "Again. I ask the question... Do you know who I am?" Junbei exclaimed once more. Reinforcing his Busoshoku Haki, Junbei save his stamina for the next move, because in that moment, this fight would be decided, for either party instantly. Without lifting a finger, the man reinforced his Haki purest and sharpest levels of Titanium possible(Tier 8 Natural Defence), blocking the man's punch with his whole body. Unable to force Junbei an inch from his position, the Wotan giant simply smiled. "Your reputation proceeds you, Red King." the Wotan said with slightly troubled eyes. "I don't mean to be cheeky, honestly, I don't. However, one thing I won't ever be is underestimated, Tidus. Last chance to leave The Frog and cut your losses." Junbei commented, as within moments the remainder of his troops would arrive.

Meanwhile, firing a series of water bullets towards The Frog, the three Sharkmen attempted to lunge inward, using the bullets as diversions, for two brothers to advance, and one to stand from a distance and fire bullets off. The collision of the two forces caused the entire island to experience earthquake type tremors, as if a train had just rammed into a metallic wall. The shockwave caused as a result of the collision began to tear holes around the surrounding hundred meter area into the Iron Island, leaving large ditches for the unsusceptible to fall into.

♩

It would happen in an instant, the giant's cockiness would be the end of his stay on the Iron Tres Lotus. After Junbe's interception of the man's punch, the Wotan began to grin menacingly, simply twisting his fist, a large shockwave began to rush through Junbei's body. However, moments before i'd happen, the Yonko would pick up the motion of his wrist, releasing a gigantic sound dome encompassing everything within a 50 Diameter radius in width and height. The rush of low frequency waves elevated the sound of the giant's wrist, organs and nearby bystander almost instantly, deafening the Fishman. Upon release of his shockwave, the Yonko had no motion could evade, as the male's hand was coated in Busoshoku Haki. Bracing for impact, the sound of the shockwave blasting the Yonko backwards disintegrated a fifty diameter hole in the Iron Lotus, causing the giant's organs and anyone within the dome's oran to explode. The Frog would be safe, as the conflict with the Shark Fishman pushed him out of the radius of Junbei's low frequency waves which shattered Momo Baton. The shockwave pushed the Yonko almost twenty-meters backwards towards the Ocean depth. Entering into his intangibility state before losing consciousness, the Yonko blasted himself horizontally sixty meters backwards to crash land on the iron floor flat, not sinkhole surface. All that remained of the Wotan was a gigantic statue of rupture skin cells and blood vessels, fading out of consciousness as he sunk deep below the Iron Island, becoming fish food for the Sea Kings.

Landing, Junbei turned onto his side, coughing large volumes of blood, almost fainting from the blood loss. Removing Vitas from it's holster, the Songbird placed the golden tonfa against his chestcage, as the golden light sept into the male's heart, Junbei's wounds began to gradually decrease from fatal to manageable wounds, the light's glow saved the Yonko's life but at what cost, Momo Baton now had a gigantic crater in the centre of the island. "Rishi Rishi... Man is Charlotte going to throw a fit when she sees this." Junbei commented. Turning towards the Frog, "I understand my stance but it takes a lot of balls to tell another Yonko to go and fuck himself. I like you." Junbei stated, breathing moderately heavily. Though, Junbei had garnered some level of respect for the Frog, his guard was still up. For all he knew, the Frog could've wronged the Yonko and was indeed rightfully targeted by Oceanus. However, Oceanus policies pissed Junbei off, especially such closed minded views on race, it reminded him of his days on Skypeia all over again. Arriving on the scene, Daisy the head scientist nearly fainted as she accessed the damage done to the Iron Island. The remainder of the grunts scattered, trying to capture the bodies of the remaining Fishmen that weren't disintegrated. "Sail their bodies to one of Oceanus turfs with a message, "Stay off my land." Junbei said sternly.

"Now." Junbei said in a more laid back turn. "Bring the rum!" Junbei shouted, causing the onlookers to roar in glee.
