Orders And Priorities

*Sigh*

I was too late. 

I had just arrived on top of Ohara, and I was about to land in my human form, but I had just noticed the lying corpse of Nico Olvia. It upset me because I had thought I'd be able to arrive in time to get her before it was too late.

I had slowly turned into my draconic form as I slowly descended down on the island. The two heads on my shoulders let out a roar as I got closer and closer to the island. I had already spread my Observation Haki all over the island to find Nico Robin. Luckily, she hadn't moved too far from where I was; I'd probably pick her up soon after I resolved the situation.

Landing on the ground, I was greeted by numerous ice spears that immediately tried to pierce my scales. However, they either bounced off or simply shattered; looking at the source of all that ice that had been attacking me, it was easy to figure out who it was.

"Storm Dragon!! What the hell are you doing here?!!" Kuzan roared as he summoned a huge spear of ice. 

In the distance, I could sense a huge meteor shower approaching my location. I couldn't tank the attack like I would've normally done because Robin was still nearby. One of my heads turned in the direction that the meteor shower was coming from before opening its mouth and letting out a huge energy blast that simply annihilated everything that was in its path. 

Wiping out the entire meteor shower in the process.

Spreading my wings to their maximum wingspan, and all three heads looked high in the sky. I let out a loud, baleful roar that spread my Conqurer's Haki to its limit. Everyone, except for Kuzan and Jaguar, who were in my immediate surroundings, immediately passed out as a result. 

Even some of the individuals who had been on the ships for the Buster Call had been knocked out. However, one person didn't seem too happy about me being there.

"STORM DRAGON!!!"

A loud roar could be heard from one of the ships as a figure ran to the bow before leaping out of it. His marine coat billowed with the wind as he soared and approached me with alarming speed. 

"Dark Hound!!" 

His arm glowed with fiery light as it expanded with magma, he cocked his arm back in preparation to attack, but one simple swing of my tail sent him flying through the island and crashing somewhere close to the tree of knowledge.

Jaguar slowly backed away while carrying the unconscious Nico Robin in his arms; he didn't seem to have any intentions of harming her, so I decided to let her stay under his protection.

As for the others, they seemed to be affiliated with the World Government; I had no need to keep them alive anyway.

My right shoulder's head looked down on the group of World Government agents and opened its mouth, and soon after, all that was left of the World Government agents was a crater that began letting sea water in.

I began shrinking back to my human corpse so that I could have a better look at Olvia's corpse. It felt surreal to me to see the corpse of someone that I considered a friend. 

"You don't need to worry anymore...you're free now," I muttered as I slowly closed Olvia's wide-open eyes.

"Oi! Why are you here, Boris?!" Kuzan yelled seriously as he maintained his stance.

By now, the bombing of the island had temporarily stopped because of what I had done earlier with my Conqurer's Haki. However, it wouldn't be long till the bombing resumed.

"A friend asked for help, so I came by...but it looks like I was too late to save her," I responded.

"BORIS!! THIS ISLAND WILL BE YOUR GRAVE!!" Sakazuki roared as he lunged at me with his arm cocked back.

Lava spewed from his arm as he punched at me.

"Dark Hound!!!" 

Just before he was about to make contact with me, I turned around and slammed his arm with the flat part of my axe. His arm flailed out due to the impact, and in response, I sent a push kick right at the square of his chest. Sending him soaring right back to where he had come from.

I turned to look at Jaguar; he had been looking at me cautiously as he slowly backed away from the fighting. 

"You should rush to safety," I remarked as I twirled my axe.

His large figure slowly turned and began to run away from the area, hopefully far enough so that I wouldn't have to worry. 

"Ararara...Things just got a lot more complicated than they should," Kuzan pulled out his transponder snail before dialing a number. The call rang briefly before the other end connected; it was Admiral Sengoku.

"What is it, Kuzan? Is the operation complete?" Sengoku asked.

"Nope, things have gone south, and now the Storm Dragon is here," Kuzan reported.

"Impossible! The Ship belonging to the 0 Division was reported to have just entered the New World!" Admiral Sengoku argued.

"Well, he's right in front of me now. It's more than obvious that we aren't going to be able to take him, not without heavy support, at least," Kuzan replied.

"BORIS!!!!" Sakazuki immediately broke out from wherever I had sent him and lunged at me again.

"This is getting annoying," I muttered as I swung my axe at his neck. Right as the blade was about to make contact with Sakazuki's skin, he immediately elementized himself and avoided the swing.

However, his dodging made him momentarily immobile. I immediately twirled my hips and slammed the heel of my foot right at Sakazuki's side, sending him flying with a spit of blood right into a couple of more houses.

By now, the residents of Ohara were all lining up to board the ship. Nobody wanted to fall victim to the Buster Call. So a long line was made as a result, and as a result, the houses were all empty. Leaving nothing more than an empty space for him to crash about.

"There goes Sakazuki," Kuzan muttered on the phone, "and Vice-Admiral Jaguar is busy helping the rest of the islanders evacuate."

"This has escalated to levels that weren't considered. I'm going to have to consult the Five Elders," Sengoku replied before hanging up.

I stopped listening to whatever Kuzan and Sengoku were talking about and started walking back over to Olvia's corpse.

She was lying pretty close to the body of a man with long green hair. I guess a proper burial should have been in place.

"Alright, Kuzan," Admiral Sengoku responded after an immediate call-back, "The Five Elders have decided to follow through with the orders of the Buster Call. They also implied that nobody who lived on that island should survive."

"Oi, Admiral! You do know that they're innocent civilians living in there, right?" Kuzan asked suddenly. These kinds of orders were unusual for Sengoku.

"I am aware, but the World Government doesn't want any loose ends," Admiral Sengoku remarked.

"That doesn't make any sense; we're just going to bomb and kill innocent islanders just because the World Government doesn't want something to leak?!" Kuzan argued.

"Kuzan!! Have you lost your mind questioning the orders of the World Government?! Carry out your orders, and I'll debrief you when you get back," Admiral Sengoku replied before hanging up.
