The Judgement Hour

The battle between the Big Mom officers and Ashen's pirates was reaching an end as both parties fought for hours.

Enel and Oven stood facing each other, the tension between them palpable. Enel's eyes crackled with lightning as he smirked at his opponent, while Oven's body radiated intense heat.

"You really think you can defeat me with that puny devil fruit power of yours?" Oven taunted, his eyes narrowed.

Enel merely chuckled. "You underestimate my power, Oven. Let me show you what a true lightning god can do."

With that, Enel charged forward, electricity sparking around him as he closed the distance between them. Oven responded in kind, his body glowing with intense heat.

As they clashed, a burst of energy erupted from their collision, sending shockwaves through the air. Enel had the advantage in speed and agility, dodging Oven's attacks with ease and landing powerful blows of his own.

Oven's heat-based attacks had little effect on Enel, whose body was insulated against them by his Logia devil fruit powers. Enel, on the other hand, was able to channel his electricity through his attacks, causing significant damage to his opponent.

As the battle wore on, the intensity of their attacks increased. Enel's lightning strikes grew more powerful, while Oven's heat became more intense.

Enel knew that he needed to end this quickly, before Oven could unleash his full power. He charged up his most powerful attack, focusing all his energy into a single bolt of lightning.

With a deafening crack, the lightning bolt shot towards Oven, who responded with a blast of scorching heat. The two attacks collided in a massive explosion, sending shockwaves through the surrounding area.

When the dust cleared, Enel emerged victorious, standing tall while Oven lay defeated at his feet.

"You may have been able to generate heat, Oven, but they don't call me 'God of Thunder' for nothing" Enel declared, looking down at his defeated opponent with a smug grin.

…

Urouge stood at the center of the plaza, his eyes locked on the looming figure of Daifuku. The air was tense with anticipation, as the two powerful pirates prepared to clash. Urouge was ready, his muscles tense and his body poised for action.

Daifuku, on the other hand, seemed relaxed, a small smirk on his face as he held his genie lamp in one hand. Urouge knew better than to underestimate him though. the man was a seasoned pirate with powerful devil fruit abilities.

Without a word, the two charged towards each other, their weapons at the ready. Urouge's giant fists clashed with Daifuku's massive sword, sending shockwaves through the air. The two combatants were evenly matched, with neither gaining the upper hand.

Daifuku called forth his genie, summoning a massive sandstorm that engulfed the plaza. Urouge gritted his teeth, using his immense strength to resist the force of the winds. As the sand whipped around them, Urouge made his move, launching a powerful punch at Daifuku.

Daifuku dodged the blow easily, his sword slicing through the air with deadly precision. Urouge leapt backwards, narrowly avoiding the attack.

With a roar, Urouge charged forward once again, his fists raining down on Daifuku. The two exchanged blow after blow, each one harder than the last. Urouge could feel his muscles straining with the effort, but he refused to give up.

Daifuku, for his part, seemed to be enjoying the fight. His grin widened as he landed a solid blow on Urouge's jaw, sending the pirate staggering backwards. Urouge shook off the hit, his eyes blazing with determination.

With a sudden burst of speed, Urouge charged towards Daifuku once more, his fists crackling with energy. Daifuku swung his sword in a wide arc, but Urouge ducked beneath it, delivering a powerful uppercut that sent Daifuku flying.

As Daifuku hit the ground with a thud, Urouge stood over him, his chest heaving with exertion. He knew he had to end the fight quickly, before Daifuku had a chance to recover.

Summoning all his strength, Urouge delivered a powerful punch to Daifuku's chest, sending the pirate flying through the air. Daifuku crashed into a nearby building, his body shattering the brick and mortar.

As the dust settled, Urouge stood over the fallen pirate, panting heavily. He knew the fight was over, but he couldn't help feeling a sense of satisfaction. He had emerged victorious against a powerful opponent.

Urouge turned to leave, his mind already on the next challenge. He knew that there would always be stronger opponents out there, waiting for him to test his mettle. But he was ready for them. he was Urouge, and he would always rise to the challenge.

…

At the same battlefield, Calvin and Perospero's battle was getting heated, with the latter seemingly having the advantage with his devil fruit power.

"Candy Crush!" Perospero proceeded to create a massive, candy-coated fist that he used to try and pummel Calvin into submission. But the latter used Soru and Geppo to avoid the attacks before he quickly rained down Perospero with punches.

Perospero covered himself in a candy armor, blocking Calvin's attacks with ease "It's useless, even bombs can't get through this armor--perorin".

'He's right, it's useless…I need more power…I need to strike him down with a greater power' Calvin though as he began to remember what Ashen was trying to teach him previously 'He said, I need to let the unused Haki in my body flow into my fist'

Calvin proceeded to heat up his arms while hardening them with Haki and Tekkai before he flew upwards and then he propelled himself using a Shockwave and Soru.

*SWOOSH* Using the momentum, he threw a powerful punch towards Perospero.

'Let it flow like a water drops flow from a vessel' Before Calvin's fist made contact with Perospero armor, he had his Haki flow around his arm like an armor while he released a shockwave from his knuckles.

"You're wasting you-!!!!-*BAAAAM*" to Perospero's shock Calvin managed to shatter his defense while dealing a powerful punch, sending him flying back.

<Heaven's Fury>

Calvin didn't stop and immediately flew to his direction and punch him again sending an uppercut while releasing the flames from his arm upward while emitting a shockwave, creating a huge explosion.

*BOOOOM* This time Perospero was sent flying upwards now suspended in mid-air, Calvin wasted no time. He lifted him even further with his immense strength, and then flipped him upside down, positioning him so that his head was now pointed towards the ground. In one swift motion, Calvin then brought Perospero crashing back down to the earth with a massive suplex, driving him headfirst into the ground with incredible force.

The impact was tremendous, sending shockwaves rippling through the ground and creating a massive crater where Perospero landed.

Perospero was shaken, so Calvin took the opportunity and started raining him down with attacks, the former tried to use his candy power to protect himself, but Calvin smashed threw it without a problem and kept beating him without a stop.

A few minutes later Perospero was beaten until he fell unconscious.

…

"Brother Perospero…" Charlotte Amande was shocked seeing her big brother getting defeated like that "Damn it, I'm not going to stay still while watching that…I'll at least take him out" she said while pointing her gun at Ashen who wasn't paying any attention, her two other sisters where behind her protecting her back.

*GUN-SHOT* Before she even put her finger into the trigger, someone managed to shoot her gun away.

"*Click*…Don't try anything funny if you don't want me to blow your brain away" Diana said while aiming her flintlock rifle at her, after that Moria, Ian and Yamamoto also showed up encircling them, and they proceeded to swiftly deal with them.

…

After the battle finished, the defeated enemies were brought to Ashen who took a look at them.

Ashen was standing over the unconscious six children of Big Mom, he slowly approached Perospero before he gave orders "Cut this fucker's tongue…Put the Sea Stone cuffs on them and lined them up…Once they wake up, we're going to start the show" He said and then he left.

"I'll have that honor captain" Ian said as he brought a sharp knife "This is what you get for running your filthy mouth" Ian said with a wicked smile, before he grabbed Perospero's thick, long tongue and proceeded to cut it clean.

*SPLASH* Immediately after that, Perospero regained his consciousness and started screaming from agony.

"AGGGHHHH!!!!...W-W-WHA YIY YOU O!!!" Perospero tried to speak while looking horrified after seeing Ian holding his tongue in his hand, he started shaking when he saw the excessive blood loss "MY MY ONGUE!!".

"Stop the bleeding, the captain needs him alive and conscious once we start" Calvin gave order and they proceeded to treat him, after that they all waited for the other five to wake up.

Meanwhile, Ken, Franky and Amber were looking for any Den Den Mushis in Big Mom's ships.

"Franky, have a look at this" Ken said before he handed him a pink snail.

"Hm?...This is a Vision Den Den Mushi, it's pretty rare and expensive as it allows both parties to see and hear each other" Franky stated while taking a closer look.

"It's perfect then" Amber said.

"Alright, let's get back"

…

Three Hours Later,

"*Knock*-*Knock*…Everything is ready" Ian informed Ashen who was chilling in his room in the big skull building.

"Alright, let's go…" Ashen said as he got on his feet, he proceeded to approach Ian before he asked for his metal bat "Can I have your bat for a a bit?"

"Sure!"

"Thanks" Ian handed it to him without questions, and they proceeded to leave after that.

…

"…"

"There he is…Meet the man" Calvin spoke through the Den Den Mushi that has the appearance of Big Mom which was transmitting the video.

Ashen walked slowly towards them. Big Mom's six children were chained and lined up while Ashen's crew surrounded them with hundreds. The six of them looked at Ashen in hostility and fear at the same time, before he finally started speaking.

"…We pissing our pants yet? Oh boy--Do I have a feeling we're getting close." Ashen said with a smirk while resting Ian's metal bat on his shoulder "It's going to be pee pee island here real soon."

"Fucking bastard, you're going to regretted this I promise you" Oven said in a low tone of voice, while he looked like he was going to explode from anger. Perospero was just gazing at Ashen beside him without uttering a word.

"So, you brat is Ashen…" Big Mom calmly spoke through the Den Den Mushi "I don't know what you're planning, but I suggest you stop before you do something you might regret"

"So, you prick is the leader" Ashen said while pointing at the Den Den Mushi whit his bat "Hi. You're Big Mom, right? I'm Ashen, and I do not appreciate you messing with me. Also, when you sent your children to convince me to marry one of your daughters, they killed and humiliated my men, and even insulted me on top of that"

"Not cool. Not fucking cool. You have no fucking idea how not fucking cool that shit is." Ashen said, and then added "But I imagine you'll be up to speed shortly. Yeah…You're so going to regret crossing me in a few minutes"

"Brat…"

"Fuck yeah, you are" Ashen said as he slowly walked around Big Mom's children "You see, Big Mom. Whatever you do…No matter fucking what…You do not mess with the New World order, and the New World order is very simple, and you should already know it as an emperor of the sea, but just in case you're fucking stupid…Which you may very well be, you can understand it…Do not mess with other people's territory, if you don't want to get punished"

"Do you even have any idea who you're talking with kid? I'll crush like an ant if you keep speaking to me like that!" Big Mom said as she sounded like she was getting angry.

"You shut up bitch! I'm speaking!...Your children thought they were safe, hiding behind their mama's name and doing whatever they want, I get it…But they met the wrong guy, they are not safe…Not even fucking close" Ashen said while he bulging forehead veins became visible "In fact they are fucked. More fucked if you don't give me what I want. And what I want is a copy of your Road Poneglyphe--And if that's too much, then you better start fucking some new guys"

"You're trying to threaten me kid? You think I'm going to fall for that?!"

"We all know that losing six officers/children is a big hit, especially strong ones, so don't act like you don't care…Do you understand?" Ashen asked Big Mom, there was a moment of silence before she replied.

"You're saying you're going to release them? if I give you what you want, you will let them get away unharmed?"

"Wait Wait…It seems that there is a misunderstanding, you really don't think that you are going to get through this without getting punished, now did you?...I don't want to kill your children…I just want to make that clear from the get go, I want to trade them for a copy of your road Poneglyph, and I can't do that if they are fucking dead now can I?"

"I told you that I'm going to crush you like an ant if you try anything!" Big Mom was getting impatient behind the Den Den Mushi "Stop this nonsense or I'll personally come to that island and kill! Do you hear me?!"

"I'm not growing a garden, but your children killed my men, my comrades… And for that…For that they gotta fucking pay." Ashen said as he grasped the metal bat with both hands.

"So now, I'm going to beat the holy fuck fucking fuckedy fuck out of one of you" Ashen said while gazing at Big Mom's children.

"You stop it now, before I get even more angry!" Big Mom kept yelling behind the Den Den Mushi, Ashen didn't mind her and continued what he was doing.

"All this…All this, just so we could pick out which one of you gets the honor" Ashen slowly walked in circle while trying to figure out which one he's going to kill "I simply cannot decide!...I've got an idea"

"EENY" Ashen started walking in front of them while pointing his bat at one of them each time.

"MEENY"

"MINY"

"MOE…"

"Catch a tiger…"

"…By the toe…"

"If he hollers…"

"Let him go…"

"My mother told me…"

"To pick the…"

"Very best one…"

"And you…"

"…Are…"

"…It. Anybody moves, anybody says anything…Cut the guy's fucking eye and feed it to his brother, and then we start" Ashen said with a smile while looking at his victim.

"You can breathe…You can blink…You can cry…Hell, you're all going to be doing that"

"STOOOOOP!!!"

*BANG* Ashen proceeded to smash Perospero's head with the metal bat.

"Hoho! Look at that…Taking it like a champ!"

"BROTHER PEROSPERO!!!" Oven screamed in shock.

Everyone was speechless looking at the scene, even Big Mom was silent and didn't say a word.

Perospero slowly raised his head, blood dripping all over his face and looked at Ashen before he tried to speak "ACREW…YOU!!"

*BANG*

"Hahaha! Did you hear that? He tried to say 'Screw you' but he screwed up because he doesn't have a tongue"

*BANG*
