Roya, seeing the message, prepares to speed up the ship, and when he sees the fire in front of him, he jumps off immediately, seeking out where the fighting is happening...
But he sees nothing.
"K-Room."
A long blade stabs through Roya's chest, but no pain is there, confusing him and is about to punch the blade with his increased mass and his gloves.
"Shock Willie!!!"
Roya experiences the shock of the awakened Ope-Ope no mi, causing him to be temporarily knocked out and falling into the sea.
"Bepa! Let's get out of here, more pi-"
"Who do you think you are!!!?"
Roya, pissed off and landing on the half broken ship, stands face-to-face with the secretly awakened user of the Ope-Ope no mi, Trafalgar D Water Lawe, with the Mink Bepa.
"Roya? Well shit, but I don't have time to play with you....while I lost my crew!!"
"R-Room!"
Roya, sensing the impending danger, gets out of the room, dodging the supposed cut from her, and summons his shikigami.
"Bepa! Get out of here!"
"Garuda Strike."
Roya wraps Garuda into a ball, and kicks it straight towards Laura, who slightly dodges it, but still gets her arm in contact, damaging it slightly.
Roya tries to get in close for a punch, but Lawe disappears, appearing on the other side.
"Takt!"
Lawe sends multiple objects and rubble towards Roya, who punches directly towards it, shattering it all, and running towards her again.
Roya gets Garuda into the fray again, but is suddenly replaced with a rock, with Garuda being trapped.
Roya increases it's mass, and throws it towards Lawe who dodges yet again, and prepares for another strike.
"K-Room!" "Star Crusher!"
Lawe tries to stretch her weapon, but it gets hit by Roya who lands a hit, causing Lawe to be sent flying, while Roya rushes again, trying to hit her again, but is in a trap now.
"Gamma Knife."
Roya is caught in the attack, causing lots of damage onto his internal organs, but thankfully for his physique, he is still standing.
Lawe, surprised, is grabbed by Roya, and gets a hit on her stomach.
Black Flash!!!
Lawe, is sent flying, puking lots of blood, but instantly gets up and teleports herself, resulting in Roya breaking the ship even more, and he gets an idea to break the ship, but senses Lawe behind him, causing him to swing behind him.
Lawe dodges it, and stabs her knife into Roya's side, which barely penetrates, causing Lawe to be even more shocked and angered, and Roya aims a punch towards her, which connects squarely onto her face, sending her into the ground and getting stepped on by Roya, about to say something.
"K-Room!"
"Wai-!"
"Shock Willie!!!!"
Roya, being stabbed between his legs, experiences another shock, causing him to become unconscious again, while Lawe tries to get up and finish him off, but Roya wakes up slightly earlier.
Roya grabs Lawe's leg, dragging it to make her lose balance, but she disappears, causing Roya to receive a block of wood.
'Fuck! Why is she so powerful! And why did the fucking system say I needed to save her, when now my body is working overtime just to keep on fighting at full power!!'
Roya punches another 'Takt' and gets Garuda again and swings it towards Lawe's direction, causing the ship to be at breaking point.
Roya carries on chasing Lawe, like a cat and mouse game, while Bepa is anxiously deciding whether to fully leave and listen to her captain, or to stay in case Lawe needs saving.
"Cosmic Fist!"
Roya catches Lawe and hits her squarely, with her endurance almost hitting it's limit, with Roya starting to get the upper hand over her battle technique.
Roya tries to hits Lawe again, but gets hit with another 'Gamma Knife', causing multiple organs to start failing, and him retreating back, with Garuda wrapping around his body.
"Look....I wasn't trying to kill you, so let's stop this now and talk about what happened."
Revivable/Reversable:
Trafalgar D Water Lami
Corazona
"You liar! We are both pirates, and pirates don't go helping each other out for nothing!!"
"I can re-"
Lawe teleports again, causing Roya to abandon trying to stop her with words.
Roya wraps Garuda around his fist, aiming to hit her with full power to knock her out but...
His arm is chopped off.
With no blood coming out.
Roya runs toward Lawe, aiming to hit her with his left arm, and nears her until...
"K-Room."
"Shock....Willie!!!!!!"
Roya is not knocked out this time and is able to punch Lawe and decides to release all of his mass, leading to his strongest punch now.(Not including Directly Post-Awakening)
"Virtual....Impactttttt!!!"
Lawe is hit, getting sent far away and lands on the edge of the ship, unable to walk, while Roya walks slowly, getting closer and closer towards Lawe.
Roya nears Lawe, staring from above completely angry.
"You know, all I planned was to try to help you, and try to recruit you and your other crewmate peacefully. But nah, I decided just to kill you both. Decided to not revive Lami. Decided not to revive Corazona. We could have helped eachother out, but nah, let's have a full-scale battle, permanently damaging eachother, and walk away with no real win. So...this is what I'm going to do."
"I'm going to kill you, but not instantly. Painfully. Slowly and Painfully. And it isn't going to be just you, it's going to be your pet. Your navigator. And I'm going to let you watch. EVERY. SINGLE. SECOND OF IT."
Lawe, seeing the rage in Roya's eyes, doesn't do anything, and closes her eyes, starting to tear up, for what she has made her beloved navigator get into.
Roya, removes his gloves, and picks up Lawe slightly, sending her where Bepa is, and starting to walk slowly, charging his virtual mass higher and higher again while Lawe, is struggling to even move slightly.
But luckily for her, whether plot armour had come.
The clouds parted.
And the moon came.
