Chapter 118: RWBY/Justice League (19)
~Third POV~
*Thud*
Arriving at the site of Arthur Kingdom Jack finally arrived on time seeing everyone getting ready with Ruby being the first to rush him, "Jack! You finally made it and you too Penny! Who's the new girl?"
Ruby points to 2B with her flight unit suit before replying back to her, "I'm 2B Miss Rose. I'm here by Jack's word but that's for another time since we have an alien space god to smite correct?"
Ruby was about to ask more but soon relented for the time being considering more pressing matters to attend to.
Everyone was geared up with Victor noticing Jack's own small forces of Bullheads piloted with few clones and Merlot Robots as he whistled at the reinforcements, "Whew~ Looks like we won't be in this without a little help now. Also, you got mail."
Blinking in surprise at this Jack sees a cylinder-type mail package with addressed to Ozpin as he talks to himself about it, "What the heck? Why the hell would the Headmaster send me this?"
Soon getting a clear answer Jack opens up the container to soon reveal a black substance coming out of Jack's shadow then came out Koromaru with a note, "Arf! Arf! Arf! Woof….!"
"Oh, look how cute he is!"
"Ah, he's not as cute as Zwei but adorable!"
"Did the headmaster send a dog through the mail!"
Koromaru was soon hugged by Nora, Ruby, Weiss, Pyrrha, and Penny as Koromaru was getting all the girls with an innocent smiles liking the petting he was receiving.
Jack on the other hand got the note attached to Koromaro as he began to read it to himself inside his head with a smile evident on his face, 'To Jack Nights while I have heard the news of what's been happening thanks to Team RWBY report I believe you need any help you could take than taking care or worrying about me. Luckily your hunter dog was adamant about staying by your side. I'll do everything and the remaining Vale Military in our power as much as to not let this Starro influence affect the battle ahead. The fate of all in Remnant is in your hands, young Huntsman and Huntresses.'
Jack seeing this couldn't help but smile giving everyone the heads up and words of advice, "Ok everyone seems to like the Headmaster gave us his best wishes to win. Now then… who's with me to sucker punch an alien god off our world!"
"HELL YEAH!"
With words of encouragement and newfound determination, they all began to get on the Bullhead rides with Jack creating four clones already having his Kiryu inside his inventory talking to himself with Koromaru standing by his side, "If there is one thing I like about my <Shadow Clone> skill is the fact that I can copy any equipment I have on hand… which also includes my <Deep Pocket> items to spam more of them like say… a mechanical dragon suit… I'm so going to enjoy this much more than I should."
Like that Jack began to show off his Kiryu along with three more clones with not one, not two but four Mechas Godzillas as everyone watched in surprise except for 2B as Ruby was drooling at this thinking to herself, 'Its official… I think I'm dead over heels for Jack seeing that massive beauty… is this what love at first sight is like?'
Like that they all began to commence with the plan with Koromaru sticking with his master to the very end.
Jack seeing everyone working together and getting the right to fight off Starro glanced at his fist with so much promising future ahead for him and his friends he spoke to himself while everyone was geared up, "I promise… I promise to have a fulfilling life and enjoy it with everyone. I may have missed my old world and even now but… after a few months here and everything in between... I can finally feel that this is where I belong, and I won't let some alien or gods take them away from me. Not now and not never."
With determination filled in his heart, Jack began to follow the steps of the planning of what was to come with Koro sitting on his lap.
Unaware Gaia glances at her Gamer from a distance readying himself for battle with a smile on her face as she spoke to herself with no one listening, "Go my apostle… do as your heart sets out to do. Do as you see fit. Let mankind's choice see that you are fit. Hopefully, you win against the struggles..."

Deep inside the sea between Mistral and Mantle Kingdom there lies deep inside the sea between the two Kingdoms lies Starro an enormous five-limbed alien starfish. Being largely navy blue in color, Starro has a singular huge, red eye. He has bright yellow and magenta markings.
Diana, 2B, and Penny soon enter the down area of the sea as they are the only ones available to enter down below without the fear of being drowned as they were Automatons viewing the slumbering Starro.
2B analyzes the situation in her flight unit suit as she thinks about the plans of what they came up with for Starro, 'Starro will be dreaming of its Empire… the possessed in the cities… the weapons in its halls... the neon Grmm, waiting for its call… we're going to end those dark dreams – once and for all. Where the stick driving Starro skyward –'
That was when they saw Starro opening its eyes at them menacingly while the three started to engage against Starro with Diana throwing her lasso, Penny her energy blast, and 2B with Ice Dust missiles.
*PEW*
*PEW*
*Wsssh*
"ARGH…!"
Starro grumbled at the surprise attack at another place nearby Arthur and Blake having his steeds Sea Horses at the ready leaving a shadow clone of herself to assist in thinking of the plan, '—which leaves, of course, the carrot us. We are both the best swimmers, but the real question is can we trick a god? Guess we're about to find out.'
Starro soon saw glimpses of Blake and Arthur coming toward him and this angered Starro. With a quick wave of his fins a large current of shockwave passed through the water managing to force the water they were swimming upward launching the two out of the water.
*KRSSSHH*
*Shiii*
Blake and Arthur were soon caught by Jessica waiting at the sky as she spoke to them, "Did you manage to fool him?"
Arthur smirked at this giving a thumbs up as he sees four distinct red lights coming at the distance of the sea to their location, "Oh we definitely got him our attention. So much so he hasn't noticed our friends coming in."
Jessica nodded at this with Victor above using one of Jack's clones Bullheads above the sea with Team RWBY and rest with them with the clone of Jack speaking to them, "Alright girls and guys! First-stop punches that alien freak is a go! Wish you luck! And go kick his stary ass!"
They all nodded as they all began to dive down to the underwater provided water breathers with Starro distracted by the three Automatons evading his attacks and launching a series of attacks at Starro in return.
However, they soon noticed that energy-based attacks were merely absorbed into his being as Penny was the first to notice giving everyone a heads up with their headsets, "Guys! Whatever you do don't use energy-based attacks! It seems like Starro can absorb them and – Look out!"
*PEW*
*SWOOSH*
Before Penny could finish Starro used the absorbed energy he took from Penny Energy Blast and re-channel energy as powerful blasts of raw force. Either directing it through the tip of each tentacle as well from its central eye at any given moment to make itself unpredictable with its attacks.
Avoiding a neon energy blast coming from Starro's eyes with everyone watching Diana finishes Penny's words, "It seems like he can re-direct energy-based attacks and turn them back at us. Be wary friends!"
Everyone nodded at this to be extremely careful with the clone of Jack leading the charge with Red Riot changing the Dust Shield to Dust Construct of Ice gauntlets as Ruby yelled out, "Team RWBY! Team JNPR! Team, uh, super best friends league! Attack!"
*Bang*
Everyone quickly went on the offensive with Ruby, Ren, and Victor shooting out their rounds and sonic booms attacks at Starro.
*Shing*
Pyrrha, Blake, Bruce, and Weiss began to go for its limbs cutting it down with their weapons enhanced with aura hoping to do some damage.
*BAM*
Yang, Clark, Nora, and Jack began to assault the Starro with their fist or blunt weapons, with Jack noticing Starro's stats using <Observe> on it to see any info. And his smirk showed has given everyone an edge once he saw the big starfish details.
[Starro – Lv.? Starro the Conqueror]
[Starro Starro is a mind-controlling intergalactic starfish and leader of the Star Conquerors, its race of alien starfish. An intimidating, hulking monster itself, Starro has been a threat to Earth, as it has tried to conquer it on multiple occasions, often acting as a planetary threat to the Justice League of America. But thanks to its interstellar ability landing in Remnant for resting it managed to nearly control everyone but is extremely weak to ice attacks.]
Jack's hand motions over to his earpiece on him as he informs everyone of Starro's weakness making his voice be heard, "EVERYONE! USE ICE ATTACKS THAT'S ONE OF ITS WEAKNESSES!"
Hearing this everyone quickly changed to Ice Dust rounds with Starro's eye-widening at this beginning to call for reinforcements telepathy, 'Come… help… soon… only… we… remain… bring… me… more. More souls… for Starro!'
/////
From everywhere around Remnant that is under the influence of Starro soon begins to converge to help their master is locating.
The first to come from the sky was the Atlas Elites Battle Air Ships with Jack's clones seeing this with a smirk as they all activated their <Technopathy> and <Hacking Mastery> as one of them spoke, "Oh…? Do you want to play battles? Sorry, but you don't have the means or tech to be on the playing field. We are masters at the game of battleships. Time to hack the game."
Like that they began to hack into Atlas Elites' battleships trying to enter inside the battle area where everyone was coming then soon enough Huntsman and Huntress with flying-based Semblances were coming over.
One of the clones nodded at this as he was near one of the buttons smiling at this happily, "Oh I always wanted to do this. Assemble! The Iron Legion!"
*Click*
"Ssswwwsshhh…!"
Suddenly a platoon of 20 Iron Man soon came out with Arc Reactors and Dust Batteries for a few of them began to live their blasters as clones and Merlot Robots began to shoot down fire at them with others with capture nets, glue guns, and anything they have to ensure they won't interfere with the battle occurring under the sea.
*Shiii*
Suddenly a green portal-like construct appeared taking in the captured interlopers with Jessica providing a portal for them to be away from the fight in some parts of Remnant Kingdoms speaking to them, "Sorry people of Remnant but… for our plan to work you need to be out from this equation. So, for that… you shall not pass!"
Removing the Huntsman, Huntresses, Soldiers, and Fleet right away lowering the chances to be defeated the clones, Iron Legion, and Jessica began to hurry along taking them out fast and furious for better success on their mission.
The fight for Remnant has only just began.
