“I will not die here, I’ll save my friend from those damn smiles!
I’ll decide when I die, as Free pirate who answered to nobody!
Instead of a pathetic fool who’s decided to give up their pride, freedom and dreams just to be throwaway cattle for some sad empty drunk!” Yukina tone was aggressive as if seeing how X-Drake addressed Kaido and treated his own man had angered her.
Although after her loud tone she went quiet as if focused there was nothing more to retaliate, clearly, she wouldn’t be a match against some of Kaido’s top men let alone the monster himself; That didn’t mean she wasn’t going to try her hardest to bring these sadistic monsters down.
Kaido had gone ahead and harmed, let alone ruined lives of those she cared about and that was unforgivable.
The botanist was able to avoid being stabbed by Drake’s Rapier, as she was backing off with careful footing from his advancing steps.
Feeling the sharp sting of his Rapier cut at her side and body tearing her kimono as crimson tears began to trickle down her side, along with the right side of her cheek, he was fast, luckily she was able to keep up but there were even some slashes she barely avoided showing his speed was somewhat superior to hers.
That could be a problem but not enough to stop her, she had brute force on her side.
A flurry of fencing then would come down his axe, she already made guess one of his possible tactics, she’ll stop his axe and attack his body.
In her mind and heart all she was determined on how Kaido was going to pay and not necessarily be by a punch to the face with enough force to snap his neck Not that she could do that anyway. No matter how much she really wanted to attempt it
She was on a warpath going to ruin his plans and make that dragon sober up and suffer, she just needed to get past this supernova who was in the way!
Clashes of metal could be now heard, sparks flared up Yukina blocked the blow of the axe with her Haki covered gauntlets, grabbing at the axe to fix him in place now’s her chance! Frontal assault her leg now throwing a haki covered kick toward his body.
However in the middle of her attack, she gasped just from the corner of her eye she spotted a tail too late, whipped right into the middle of her body as her body was sent tumbling back over the destroyed ground creating a distance until she stopped herself.
The blonde scowled, charging forward sweeping at the ground, however, all of a sudden she side-stepped, a smile on her face.
Instead of attacking direction she threw multiple broken shards of swords and knives sickles and axes in his general direction as if she was throwing shuriken, a trick she learned from Raizen.
Like a ninja and with her strength, she could make these projectiles come at Drake with a bullet like force as he’s observed before.
but the thrown broken pieces of weapons was only the distraction, from the hidden knives she took from the pouch of coated knives hidden in her kimono and threw them amongst the other weapons.
Brute strength and martial arts wasn’t her only weapon, she was a botanist that meant she could create medicine….as well as Poison.
It was a non-fatal poison that’ll wear off in a few hours once it takes effect but should it be enough to take effect to throw X-Drake off balance.
If he was cut by one of her knives, just one, he can’t avoid them all…well even if that failed plan B.
“HA!!!” As Yukina she came from above having jumped after throwing her ‘makeshift weapons. Hoping of executing a very painful heel drop onto X-drakes head.
There was something that seemed to momentary freeze Drake’s movements as she began to talk back at him. And as he froze up, he’d snarl as the stinging pain of her poisonous knives scathing against his scales, managing to hit parts of his still-soft flesh underneath. He’d grunt a bit as the wounds began to take effect, the poison on her knives making him feel increasingly disoriented.
He’d roar, however, as her axe kick came towards him, as he managed to just dodge it, albeit he was still thrown backward from the shockwave of her heel hitting the ground, causing another crater to be made. What was it she said...
“I’ll decide when I die, as a FREE pirate who answers to nobody!”
A free... pirate? Something seemed to stir in his mind then, but it only served to cause him discomfort, as he’d snarl out loud and grasp his head momentarily, dropping his weapons. But it wasn’t cause he was disoriented, no...
“SHUT UP!!” he literally roars, as his body suddenly explodes out in size, his clothes morphing to match the size he’s growing into as he just grows to the size of a huge dinosaur, his head and jaws expanding greatly as they fit a maw full of knife-like teeth, and a guttural, bestial roar was heard.
Drake was now in his full-on dinosaur form, and he’d rush his head for Yuki, aiming to slam his head down on her and devour her in one go!
