56 Crown fourth-awakening
"Finally That annoying shadow disappeared...." Mary and Legolas came to Gray said and said with an annoyed face.
Fighting with Shadow Oz really annoyed them! no matter how they damaged him. That shadow always heals himself and attack them fast. Such a fight is very unsatisfactory for them. Especially Mary who's fighting style is so violent.
Seeing her attacks useless always doesn't feel right.
"So what should we do with him?" Tauriel looked at the unconscious Moria and asked Gray.
"He still has some use..." Gray said this and put his hand on Moria.
He wants to copy all Moria's memories that are related to the shadow fruit. Shadow fruit is really strong. Bad development like Moria was able to give them such trouble. This shows how powerful this ability is.
After ten minutes. Gray copied all the information he wants then withdraw his hand and was about to kill Moria for good.
But will things be that easy?
"Gray... The crown..." Mary behind Gray said while looking at the crown that suddenly started to shine gently on top of Gray's head.
"This....ugh" Gray also notices the crown abnormality. But his breath suddenly strangled and couldn't say anything.
"UGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" Suddenly Gray screamed from the pain.
"What?! Gray what is happening?!" Mary and Baccarat who just came to their side looked at Gray who suddenly put his hands on his head and yelled like crazy from pain.
In the last third evolution of the crown, Mary was in a coma. So it's her first time to see Gray's situation. And Baccarat she only joined them in this world. So she doesn't know anything till now.
Yes... The crown is evolving for the fourth time.
But unlike every time. This time evaluation took a completely 10.000GB of his C disk. In other words. It's taking 10.000 years of his life span!
So the pain Gray is feeling right now is on a completely different level from what he felt before.
Besides this time evolution isn't normal like the last one. If you look at Gray's face under the black light that's shining from the crown. You can see that his face is changing slowly. And even the black mark under his eye started to twitch and slowly changing its shape.
From deep inside his soul to the top of his skin. Gray felt pain. Pain even worst than death itself.
"Let's go" Legolas carried Gray who's suffering from pain and wanted to leave.
"What wrong with Gray!!" Baccarat looked at Gray and asked Tauriel with a startled face. This is her first time to see Gray actually suffer like this.
From Gray's breathless scream. She can see how much pain he's suffering right now.
Even Mary looked at Tauriel and Legolas waiting for them to answer her.
"We will explain later. We need to take Gray away from here now." Tauriel didnt explain directly and wanted to take Gray to a safe place. Till the crown complete its evolution.
She's the most anxious between them right now. In the last time, Gray told her to never try to remove the crown if something like this happened. Because this might hurt him more.
Even though Gray knows that they cant removes this lunatic crown. After all, such a strong crown won't be removed in normal ways. The crown already merged very deep with. So it's not an easy thing to remove it.
"Come let's g...." While saying this. She suddenly saw an extra figure appeared behind Baccarat.
"You can't take him with you..." The person who appeared behind Baccarat said this with a calm voice.
Hearing his voice everyone moved away from where they were standing.
"You are!!" Legolas looked at the big almost giant person that appeared suddenly and said with shock!.
An enormous man, wearing a hat with a pair of rounded ears, along with the dark blue fabric, jacket contains a large white design reminiscent of a target cross-hair, There are also several white paw prints lining the bottom hem of his coat. Carrying a book with Title Bible!. His overall appearance resembles that of a bear, though there are a few key differences.
Bartholomew Kuma! Another one of the seven war-lords. The owner of Nikyu Nikyu no Mi(Paw-Paw Fruit).
"The unknown fay. Gray... you can't take him away..." Kuma said calmly while he's looking at Gray on Legolas back.
"Be careful. Don't let this guy touch you...." Legolas raised his vigilant to its peak and said to his the others.
And naturally, everyone knows what he meant. For Kuma's ability. Everyone knows. It's been a long time since they entered this world. So they naturally don't lack any information about the warlords. And Gray also explained to them about this guy before.
Seeing them looking at him like this. Kuma slowly removed his gloves and put his hand on the unconscious Moria.
"WOAH" As soon as his palm touched Moria. Moria disappeared from the place. Leaving only a strong wind wave behind him.
Seeing this. Legolas and the other started to sweat from their head.
What happened just now? With a touch, Moria actually disappeared from the place!.
Even though they know that Moria didnt die and just moved to another place by Kuma's ability. But This force still so scary!
Who knows if this guy suddenly touched you and sent you directly to Navy headquarters. isn't that just a Game Over?.
"WASH... WOSH" Before Kuma rise his head Mary and Tauriel were faster and directly attacked Kuma from both sides.
But Kuma also was ready for this and disappeared from the place.
"Legolas behind you!" Baccarat looked at where Legolas was standing and shouted.
And of course, Legolas already noticed him. After all, his Observation Haki is not a joke.
Kuma waved his palm at Legolas.
And Legolas jumped higher and kicked Kuma to push himself away.
"WOOSH" as soon as Legolas flees. The spear That Mary uses flew with lightning speed in front of him and pierced Kuma's shoulder.
Seeing that they managed to hurt Kuma. Mary and the others didn't stop then turned back and run away from the place at there fastest speed. And Tauriel already came to Baccarat's side and carried her and run away.
"you can't run away...." Kuma said and didn't care about his damaged shoulder then disappeared from the place.
With a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of them again.
"Tsuppari Pad Ho(Slapping Thrust Pressure Cannon)"Then he plants both feet firmly on the ground. Then raised his two palms in a sumo-style, And waved his palms toward Legolas and Tauriel at a fast speed.
With every time he waves his hands. Many small paw bubbles appear and flew toward them at a very fast speed.
"BOOM...BOM...BOOOM" Almost everything in a hundred meters destroyed because of the paw bubbles.
Nikyu Nikyu no Mi(Paw-Paw Fruit).! This fruit is a very magical fruit. It bestows its user the ability to repel everything they touch and is physically represented as paws on the user's palms, making the user a Paw Human.
This power has been used by Kuma in a variety of ways. The majority of them are attacks that when executed, leave a paw-pad imprint resembling the pads on his palms.
Objects repelled by Kuma using the Devil Fruit's powers travel at incredible speeds. People repelled by Kuma are sent flying through the air for three days and three nights inside a paw-shaped bubble that protects them from any and all obstacles in their path until they arrive at a location designated by Kuma. Upon their arrival, the bubble will vanish and the victim will land in the middle of a large paw print, completely unharmed.
And this is how he made Moria disappeared.
And this also how he attacks them. by repelling the air he shot paw-shaped air pressure.
Legolas carried Gray and flew up... Since the can't run away from Kuma in low altitude they will try higher altitude.
Tauriel did the same she seized both Mary and Baccarat and flew up following up.
But Will this really work?
Kuma disappeared again and appeared in the mid-air and attacked Legolas again.
Tauriel not far away. Waved her free hand at Kuma.
(She carrying Mary on her back and Baccarat on the other hand)
When Mary thews her spear at Kuma shoulder. Tauriel notices that there is a metal object between his joints.
So she will try to control it.
And as she expected she really managed to push Kuma away.
"BOOM" Kuma fall on the group but he directly moved his head toward Tauriel and opened his mouth and shoot a yellow beam toward her.
Because everything was fast. Tauriel didnt have time to dodge only looked at the beam coming toward her.
"WISHHH" But weirdly the beam actually missed her and moved from her side.
Tauriel directly realized what happened and looked at Baccarat with grateful eyes. Baccarat helped her and used luck to let the beam miss her.
Tauriel didnt stop and looked at Kuma who already stood up and moved her hand want to control him again.
But weirdly she found that she cant do this.
Even though she still can feel the metal from him. But the magnetic field around him is being repelled!.
Seeing this Tauriel tuned back and followed Legolas not far away.
Kuma didnt Follow them and stood there while looking at Legolas and Tauriel back.
To tell the truth, Kuma doesn't care about Gray and the others. He only came here to send a message for Moria.
But lately, the navy and even the world government are paying attention to Gray and his crew. So Kuma wanted to test them and see what is so special about them. Why the navy is so stressed about them. What kind of secret they have. Maybe this will be useful for the Revolutionary Army!.
Gray has been wanted for a long time already. But till now he didnt put a pirate flag or done anything showing his real purpose position on the sea. So no one knows much about them for real.
Thinking of this, Kuma's eye refocused on them and opened his both hands in praying or inviting gesture tower the sky.
...
Legolas and Tauriel flew all the way toward the shore where they left the ship last time.
But as soon as they reached they found that their ship is missing!.
"Where is the ship!!!!" Baccarat stood up by her self and looked at the shore trying to find the ship.
"It's not here don't look at it. Let's search for another one" Legolas already searched the area around them with his Observation Haki. But he couldn't find anything. So he's planning to find any ship around and use it to move away.
As they were planning to take off again. Kuma appeared again in front of them. But this time he's carrying a ball of light between his hands.
"Ursus Shock(Bear Impact)" Kuma let go of the light ball and disappeared from the place.
"Wha...." "BOOOOM" As soon as Legolas wanted to let others be careful the white light ball exploded and made a big shook.
(Ursus Shock is Kuma's strongest attack. Kuma gathers air with his palms and compresses it into a giant bubble that resembles a paw-print. Once the bubble is compact enough to fit within his hands, he releases the compressed air and sends it toward his opponent. The air quickly decompresses, causing a massive explosion in the form of a bear paw.)
...
Not far away. Perona stood on Gray's party ship and looked at the strong shock in Thriller Bark. Somehow she felt lucky that she took the ship and run away!.
The scene from his place is so scary!.
...
After the shock ended. Legolas, Mary, and Tauriel's bodies were all black like black metal.
Only Baccarat was somehow damaged from this shock and already lost consciousness.
"UGHHH" Legolas breathed a long breath.
"Where is Gray!!!" Tauriel besides him also removed the Armament Haki from herself and looked at Legolas back. But she found that Gray is not there.
"What!!" Legolas also found that Gray is missed.
But soon they found him. Because of the shook. Gray was tossed not far away behind him.
"WISHH" Kuma appeared again and looked at the four intact people in front of him.
"You are strong....." Kuma looked at them and said calmly.
Legolas and Tauriel didnt answer him and held their weapons ready to fight. Since they can't run away. Then fight!.
As long as Gray went back to normal. They will have a chance to run away!.
And Mary carried Baccarat to Gray's side and stood in front of them in case Kuma tried to attack Gray again.
As she turned her face to Kuma's side. Gray whos face cant be seen from the black-light slowly stood up. And the crown also slowly calming down and the light is fading away.
"All I need is him. why don't you...." Kuma looked at Legolas and Tauriel and wanted to talk with them. But suddenly he notices Gray who already passed Mary and walked to toward him.
"Gra...." Legolas and Tauriel also found that Gray already woke up and wanted to call him. But When they saw Gray face both of them couldn't say anything.
Gray slowly walked in front of them and looked at Kuma with very calm and even empty eyes.
"....."
Gray slowly moved his lips and said only one word...
But as soon the word came out. The world became so quite. As if the sound itself vanished.
As he said that word Kuma slapped himself and disappeared from the place completely.
Then Gray moved his eyes looked at the others with the same empty eye and said another three words.
"...."
As he said these words, all of them disappeared.
Legolas, Tauriel, Baccarat, Mary, and even Gray himself disappeared from the place.
Leaving only a dead calm Pig ship with no sound at all.
...
...

(Author: What did Gray say? If someone guessed what he said in the in first and the second time. I'll let him decide the next world)
