Rising Tensions

Nyct turns around as everyone unfreezes.

"If you wanna go on ahead and get this event over with… I can teleport us to the gate, but that's as far as I can teleport right now…" Yuma and Boombox nod.

"Let's do it" Nyct nods and lifts his hands and glowing. His voice getting deep.

"Isueel Mantra: Warp gate!" a massive portal appears under them as they all fall through. Appearing in front of the gate. A group of bandits camping the gate for free kills. Boombox turning to Cani.

"Mrs Flame Princess?" Cani sighs and jumps at them. Slamming her hand into the ground as flames explode. A smile forming as the gate opens.

"Contestents: Cani Shisha, Yuma, BoomBox, and Nyct Moon… have all passed successfully" All of them walk out and sit down. Yuma taking a deep breath.

"Before we leave to go up to the next islands, we have to go and get our boat" BoomBox waves.

"We'll meet you there… It is an archipelago…" Cani smiles and waves as Yuma walks away.

"Thanks for the help!"

Yuma jumps up on the deck as Kinsha runs up to them and looking around.

"Where did that nice man go??" Yuma looks down at her and remembering his words. Reaching down and patting her head.

"He'll be back… we just have to go without him for now… We'll see him again someday" She looks down saddened and goes down below deck.

"You could have rephrased that better" Yuma death glares Cani.

"Be happy I'm even considering her emotions… I was the one who watched him die with my own two eyes." Cani looks down.

"Sorry…" Yuma nods.

"Take us to the next island… Cani" Cani nods and goes to steer the ship. Yuma unfurling the sails.

The boat floats across the water as two pirate boats double the size of there's pull up beside them. Nyct on one and BoomBox on the other, each with their own respective crews.

"Your boat is tiny!" Yuma glares at Nyct.

"It may be small… but this girl is mighty" Cani chips in.

"Her name is Saint Seiya by the way!" BoomBox laughs.

"Yeah, okay!"

Yuma stands on deck and looking at Nyct. Then looking at Kinsha. Kinsha of which was confused.

"What are you two doing?" Yuma sighs as Nyct speaks up.

"We're training… and we hope that by you watching us… you can learn to protect yourself as well" Kinsha nods as Yuma jumps forward. Nycto grabs Yuma's arm and throwing him across the deck. Yuma quickly standing up and running forward. Punching Nyct and then tornado kicking them. Nycto slides back as Yuma runs at him. Blocking another kick from Yuma and grabbing his foot. Throwing him to the ground. Yuma grabbing Nyct's legs and making him loose his balance.

"Agh-!" Nyct stumbles back as Yuma jumps forward and uppercutting them.

"And… time!... when it comes to contact… Yuma has been the one delivering the most blows" Nyct glares at Cani.

"Mainly cause I'm a trained Assasin… not a martial artist!" Yuma rises to his feet.

"It's not even martial arts… It's just reactive position fighting… based on how you move, i'll react… and counterstrike… Nezxa taught me…" There was silence as Nyct sighs and repositioning their mask.

"Well… uh… I think that's enough training for the day…" 

"This is unfathomable!" Another of the government officers scoffs.

"Unfathomable is an understatement!... That GANG had only been roaming the sea's up until now! Why are they attacking civilians so suddenly!?" The leader tries to reassure everyone.

"Well, will everyone calm down for a second?... we must detain these fiends even if it costs their lives!... Their leaders bounty… crieg?... has been raised to Ѥ1,500!... we must do something about him!" One of the other officers shout.

"What about that alliance that was just made between 'Alien King' Yuma, 'Flame Princess' Cani Shisha, Boombox, and Nyct!?... 3 of which have already been to the infinite sea once! We musn't let them trek any further!" The leader nods slowly.

"After his rumored solo murder of 'Magma Dragon King' Nezxa Kaj… we had no choice but to raise Yuma's bounty to…" Everyone gasps.

"That would put him at the 3rd biggest bounty in the ENTIRETY of 'Wanter sea!'... are you sure about that captain!?" The leader nods.

"Think about it… he has an alliance with two people of over Ѥ2,000,000… collapsed his home country… AND looted a Government island… if you have any issues… bring it up with the 12 Tribulations!" There was an audible gasp amongst them as there was then silence.

"Thank you for your time… meeting adjourned"
