Reverse...

The warship was destroyed and just immedately right after that, the waves was clapped out of the ocean drowned the other ship and navy who were just trying to escape to death.

"This..."

"Rear admiral Cancer.. is dead..."

Every navy froze in there position as they look on the huge amounts of blood that created a small pool in the ocean. There floated the dead Cancer who was quickly burning to nothingness, such scene caused the navy's expression to change several times until it became a face of unbelieveing.

"I don't believe it.."

"How is this..."

"Why..Why..."

The navy state of mind became turbid as there brain fried in shock, a powerful soldier of justice. Who roams the grandline and take down many of those big pirates whose bounty are 100 milllion died in the hands of a West Sea pirate, they were hit hard.

"Bastard," Strawberry who has always been calm, looked on the dead Cancer with an angry and ugly expression. He was too late. How could he have been so careless as to not think and take measures if such situation were to happen. With a rear admiral dead in the West sea, the prestige of the navy is bound to take a blow when such information is spread to the grandline.

Thinking about this, Strawberry expression couldn't help but become dark, the anger swelling in his heart is not small. A fellow colleague died before and the consequences that come right after are really huge, his mouth couldn't help but fiercely twitch a the side.

"I should have finished you long ago," Strawberry aura rose rapidily as he looked on Joshua with intense killing intent and anger. As he took off, the air took an instant shock as his aura exploded in the sky. Joshua who had his eyes on the sea shrank, his observation haki has already picked up Strawberry's movements. He unhitchedly twitsted his body as he dodged the sudden sword strike, he went in a low stand posture then slashed out with his flame sword.

Strawberry jumped in the air then strongly kicked towards Joshua's head, seeing the attack coming, Joshua dissipated in the air then appeared few metres off then slashed out. The gloomy distorted flame ran from his blade towards Strawberry, whose face was already sweating, feeling the horror latent heat heading his way hurriedly responded. Several slashes ran across the air, the instantly formed winds blades cut the blade flmae in half, he side stepped then shoot to Joshua.

Seeing Strawberry coming Joshua stepped forward and greeted the the two katanas.

Boommm...

A shockwave blasted through the air as both opponents poewrs clashs, whirls of winds spread out rapidily as contact of differents powers was contacted. They flashed way in the sky and one black and clear enegy flickered at several different points in the air as they continuing fighting. The sea water has repeatedly galloped in the air as as the collision of power took place.

"He was still hiding such strength," Joshua wrinkled his eyebrow as he smoothly dodged the attack. Even though he has grasped observation haki, he is no longer in a pasive state but the power gap cannot be filled by that. With the simulation of Cancer's death Strawberry who has not displayed much from start is now bringing ot his real strength. But this much is expected as a person who is bound to be promoted to vice admiral rank soon the power he wields is just not in the same category of rear admirals.

"It seems I have to resort to that," Joshua turned on the system interface and look and a certain fruit which had a grey burgandy colour with weird swirls and a lipid stem. Its almost 1 year Joshua has been has reincarnated here and the power he has accumualting in this 1 year period could make him contend with a candidate vice admiral for sometime.

Joshua is not dissatisfied with such attainments, such short period he good have gotten to this point there is nothing to be dissatisfied about. Just give him more time and he will soom have his name resound through this world.

Joshua eyes flashed with a black glint, "even though I wanted to give it to capable person of my crew. It doesn't matter know, what can give me power at this immediate time I will use it."

He backed away in the distance the took out the weird circular pattern fruit.

That's..

Strawberry who was boiling in anger looked on the what wa in Joshua hands and a flash of surprise crossed his face.

"Devil fruit."

But such look instantly turned into a sneering expression, he has somwhat figured out what Joshua wants to do. "You will blow up if you eat the fruit,"

Looking on the fruit for a second, Joshua eat up the fruit fiercely, ignoring the bad taste of it. Then right has was finished eating the fruit the left side of his body appeared a detailed figure. On his left hand the tail of the creature was wrapped around it, which should fine detailed scales, it further went across to chest where the upper body became visible.

In a entangled way, there the head of the creature stood out with its jaws widly opened, the ferioucity it released was formidible and how it was in a intertwined format it gave off was a chaotic and poisonous vibe. His dark brown eyes turned crison red with vertical pupils his whole aura became dreadful as scales were grown on his body as his size increases.

There levitated in the sky, was a creature which around 80m long, the whole body of it was around 10 times as thick as the US navy ship, USS Zumwalt. It inner body was of a red colour with many opposite line running in two different directions and on its neck regions there was a dozens of shrap pointy object.

The outer region of its body was in a pale light green colour which had many black spikes like objects that runs straight down its back. For the tail, it looked extremely solid and with the edge of it being glisten under the sun light as it reflect its terrifying shrap point.

The creature was a snake.

But not just any snake, this is a mythical beast which is the embodiment of chaos and destruction himself.

Serpent God Apophis..

Image here...

"What the hell is that..."

Where did such huge creature come from,"

"Its too huge."

Everyone looked in the sky with shocked expressions, just where in the world did such fearsome creature appear from. Just like everyone else Strawberry was also shocked

Strawberry who was waiting for a little show suddenly felt his whole self gone dark, which made him open his eyes. His eyes widen in shock as he look towards him with a unbelieving expression.

"This is impossible.."

What did he see Joshua eat a fruit and transformed into a creature. How is this posiible. Isn't he suppuse to blow up, turn into bits of flesh and blood but nothing of that sort happened which made him truly shocked. It is known all over the world that there can't be a person who can eat two devil fruits from ages ago but such a 'myth' suddenly became true. Even though he wickness it himself, it still shocked the soul out of him, as if what has just happened broke the laws of physics.

Rooarrr....

Joshua who has turned in a 80m long snake screamed in the sky, such loud screehing sounds angrily scattered in the sky as if were demanding the whole earth to exalt its presence. The scream ran through the air and the high pitched sound caused every ears to bleed constantly as this occurs. The atmosphere shook violently, the sea below tremble in cower as the violent winds converge and spread out furiously in the sky.

boomm.

Thunder stroke in the sky as the dark clouds gathered, flickers of electric flint ran through the dark soft puffy entities. Heavy rains came down as the winds blow harshly while it pass through the air, which causes the sea surface to gallop in in the air with over a metre height.

Zheng..

The lightning feel from the sky releasing it awed and powerful might, as it discharges small projectiles run through the sky what to spread its detter force. Then...

boom

Another one dropped as the thunder echoed in the sky but what was different about this one, was that that it swirled itself around Joshua's snake body. More followed and a connection of welcoming lightning jumped around him happily in a spiral format.

"Such strength," Joshua said in a little suprise. He can feel the tremendous power swelling inside him , with him eating the fruit physical power, senses etc have all heighten and such drastic change is now running through the coarse of his body.

"Hehehee.." now lets see who supress who," Joshua sneered as he looked on the shocked Strawberrywho was in a distance. He screamed in the sky again and violent thunders exploded almost instantly..

Zheng...

Zheng...

Zheng...

Lightning stroke from the sky hitting the surface of the sea in several different area, then huge whirpool started to descend from the sky. The thickness and amount of weather element which was in it caused the atmosphere to become extremely tense. Right where the lightning hit , they decended and the surface of the water started to raise as it welcomingly wraps itself towards them then it arrogantly closed in on Strawberry.

"What the hell!"

Such scenes such horrified the navy, how did this happened, such devastating natural distaers would probably scene once ot twice in the grandline . Why are the seeing it in the West sea.

"This.."

Strawberry was shocked again sensing, the the 8 or so natural disasters coming towards him his face became extremely dread.

"Is this his doing." Strawberry looked on the figure in the sky with deep solemnity. Todays events he doesn't know how to describe it.

"Just what kind of zoan devil fruit is this.."

This he is also not sure but he has to strike back at the tornadoes which circled him.

He gripped the katanas fierecly and the pink light glowed around them, his coat levitated wildly as his aura exploded in the sky. The sea shook in response as waves runs out he spins around which made the winds encamp him.

The pink energy glowed as he spun, they moved around the swords creating a huge energy blade on both. They moved off as they a bigger version of the katanas levitated in the sky

"Evovler.."

Then his eyes flased as he as he slammed into the 8 tornadoes thatbumped in him.

boommm....

The clashed but no attack met each other, the strong sufficating breath of power collision stagnated the constant fluttering air. Lightnings, thunder, hail, continue to flicker through the tornadoes which is all blasted in his body. Feeling the horror power submerge on him, Strawberry gritted his teeth slightly as he pushed forward from all direction.

boomm...

The power ripples blasted through the air as constant weather element smashed into the atmosphere, the sea surface sank about over a metre in diameter before spreading out. Huge amounts of water torrents lift in the sky as waves of above decent height was formulated. The sea water was going crazy as the some of the tornados crash all around.

Just this attack alone approached the ranks of Vice Admiral....

.....

"Move the ships...'"

"Retreat..."

"Hurry.."

Feeling the heavy winds that rustle through the sky and the sea that as gone mad from power clash. The navy hurriedly tried to get the back up the ships not wanting to be affected, even though they are quite a distance from the battle, the aftermath is not a joke.

...

As they were doing that, so did Laffitte and Guzen did the same.

"Laffitte you should have some guesses on what's going," Guzen who held his gun over his face said as he blocked the fierce winds which were blowing violently.

For Joshua has been using black flames all time around just turn into a huge snake like this, something his off and wrong.

"Like you, there are some thoughts," Laffitte eyes flashed with a little bit of light as he hled onto his hat. They might have not entered the grandline and not know alot of things but there ware somethings which can be picked up from common sense.

Guzen didn't reply, but his blood red eyes flashed with a haze of dark of red colour.

....

"Damn," Strawberry flew out from the collosion of power with a pained expression, his hads were numb from coming in contact with the weather. But thats not all, a blood mark ran from the corner of his mouth, he was injured. Being barraged by a weather phenomenom like that his injury is not light as his internal organs made a major shift.

But he had no time to think things through because right when he was flying his observation haki kicked off instantly which made his expression changed. He hurriedly dodged but he might have dodged it but he still took some damage.

This...

Strawberry made a low cry as his as were melting away at horrifying speed. He hurriedly cut off the section of his hand which now leads to constant flow of flesh and blood.

The continued to side step in the to dodge the appeared black flames. What Strawberry is dodging is one of Joshu abilities which he have used a few times back often.

Death spikes...

By using his sensing skills he can some flames like spikes in the space to entangle with the enemy. But he never really used it because his sensory skills was limited but now with observation haki and hightened sense given by the zoan fruit, Joshua can use it much more.

From time to time Strawberry flickers through the sky to dodge the death spikes.

Joshua summoned a few more tornados which made Strawberry expression turn ugly.

"Bastard," Strawberry angrily side as he dodges the attack, he stopped as he held his sword tightly and shot forward.

He pulled back the blades behind of him as he runs through th sky while avoiding the attacks. A haze of pink flash through his eyes he pulls the katanas foward then he spins through the air at terrible speed to Joshua's position.

"No matter how you eat another fruit, or what kind of power your using."

"I'll will kill you for the greater good,"

"FOR JUSTICE!"

Strawberry carried back his hand and his long head turned into a thick coated colour. Then a intense pink colour shown as he speedily moves forward. Seeing Straberry coming Joshua calmly acted, he screamed as he also fericiously moved forward.

Booooomm...

A dent appeared in the atmosphere when they collided, the powerful attacks which were released revovled around the air and because the attacks are both strong, a electric like flint was formulated which then break out a sizzle sound. This occurence caused the surface of the sea to split, dividing the two powers and different auras. The winds violents scattered as the shrub ocean waves followed out.

"Pluahh..." Strawberry flew out, spitting out huge loads of blood, the raw power of Joshua's body' was too powerful for him too handle even if he has a good grasp armament haki.

"Not good.."

His expression changed when he felt Joshua's whole breath disappeared under the watch of his observation haki. But it was too late.

Pierce...

There Joshua appeared before Strawberry with his shrap pointy tail jolted right through Strawberry stomach.

"Pluahh."

He spat blood way heavily this time as his whole body hhad a huge whole plunched right through him. Now his life or death is unknown.

Joshua shook his tail causing Strawberry to fall from the sky, as that occurs the blood which was left on his tail also dropped with him.

"Since you love to talk about justice so much..."

Joshua low yet powerful hissing voice ran through out the sky causing it to tremble fearingly.

"Please go die since you have failed it.."

The sky shook a little and the storm which has calm down a little rage out in anger, then a huge hand overlapped the atmosphere has it descends from the sky. Thunder, lightning, heavy winds etc, moved about unseizling in it as it discoloured self falls. The terriyfing aura sufficated the atmosphere as it moves, lightning continues to flickers in and out as it venture into down to the earth. Then what happened, was as its drops black flames appeared turn the day into a more bleaky area.

boom..

The stormy hand which had black flames around it mercilessly hit Strawberry who probably wanted to curse Joshua . He broke through the air as he falls speedily to the ocean.

Splash....

A huge slap of the sea occured as the detter power waked up the sea in an immediate shock. The hand continue to sink Strawberry into the ocean as if he was sentenced down to hell.

booommm.

The sea exploded creating huge waves which was again disturbed it. Huge splatters of water drop as the waves moves out in unison.

The navy who were in the distance were shocked at what they saw but they didn't have time to express it, as few bolts of lightning fell both killing and destroying their ships.

"Hahahaa..." Joshua panted heavily due to him being in his snake form his pale expression couldn't be scene. The fight overall was long but the consumption used is huge. Don't look on the powerful collision and terrifying power display ,to fight a rear admiral then go on again to fight a candidate vice admiral. The physical strength that Joshua used is alot.

"Even so, everything is over now," he catch a breath as he let loose his transformation.
