(Third Person POV)
Ryoma lunged at Pinkpunk, swinging his sword down vertically. The Rear-Admiral jumped to the side, avoiding a slash of flames and composed himself right away.
He then jumped at Ryoma and swiped his right hand at him with tremendous speed, his long claws coated with Armament Haki. Ryoma casually stepped back to avoid the swipe and then immediately countered with an upwards swing that nearly caught Pinkpunk.
"Tch!" Pinkpunk muttered as he jumped back and flipped in midair, snorting loudly, "You are quite skilled!!"
"Careful where you step." Ryoma said as Pinkpunk had stepped to the side
"Huh?" Pinkpunk looked down and saw he was on a puddle of oil, "Curses!"
Ryoma lunged at him and the Rear-Admiral tried to dodge but he slipped on the oil, making him lose balance. Ryoma swung his sword at him, cutting him in the shoulder with ease.
"You're cut." Ryoma simply said with a menacing tone, "Ape."
Pinkpunk scowled as he stumbled to the side, blood pouring from his wound. He planted both his hands down on the ground and snorted loudly, a menacing glint in his eyes.
"This is nothing!" He bellowed as he lunged at Ryoma
Ryoma suddenly disappeared as Pinkpunk had swiped his claws at him. The Rear-Admiral looked to the side to see that Ryoma was sliding to his left, assuming an Iai stance.
"Huh?" He said as he blinked, "Wait!"
He looked below Ryoma's feet and saw that the swordsman was sliding on the oil that was spread on the ground. Ryoma took a step and suddenly slid around Pinkpunk casually.
"He's sliding on the oil, maneuvering like it's nothing!" He thought to himself, "This guy is nothing to scoff at!"
"Slippery Dance"
Ryoma suddenly appeared in front of Pinkpunk, sliding side to side in a very rapid fashion as he swung his flaming sword. The Rear-Admiral parried his attacks with his haki-coated claws, stepping back as this happened.
"Nice moves." Ryoma said, "You're no pushover."
"Tch!" Pinkpunk said
The Rear-Admiral slipped yet again, his foot stepping on more oil. He stabbed the ground with his claws to stop himself from falling forwards but Ryoma had already slashed him again.
"Cut. Again." He said with a serious tone, "You need to adapt more quickly to my attacks."
The Rear-Admiral suddenly tackled him hard, his shoulder coated in haki. Ryoma was taken aback by the sudden speed and power that he merely widened his eyes as he slid back fast. He composed himself almost right away but the blow had shaken him up a bit.
"How about you worry about yourself!!" Pinkpunk bellowed as he launched himself into the air, "You criminal scum!!!"
"Pink Fall!!!"
He curled himself into a ball and shot straight down, spinning rapidly, hitting the ground where Ryoma stood. The impact created a shockwave powerful enough to stagger nearby marines, even interrupting Samuel and Rhea's fight.
"Whoa…" Samuel said as he dodged a chain whip, "What's that guy's deal?"
"Pinkpunk is getting serious?" Rhea said, "I should too….how is Smoker doing?"
She looked over to Smoker who had Jag subdued in a massive cage of smoke, the massive yellow lizard beast being constricted by the massive construct as Smoker had his arms lifted in the air.
"Tch…!" Smoker said as he looked to the side, "This guy is a pain in the ass…."
Back to Pinkpunk and Ryoma, the Rear-Admiral followed the cannonball with a quick lunge, swiping his claws at Ryoma. The attack graze the swordsman on the leg, drawing blood.
"Hm…." Ryoma said
"Got you!!!" Pinkpunk bellowed as he unleashed a flurry of swipes
Ryoma stepped forward the attacks and using the oil beneath his feet, he casually dodged the attacks in a smooth and dance-like movement. He sheathed his sword as he did this, moving towards Pinkpunk as he covered his entire body with oil, small flames being emitted.
"What are you doing?" Pinkpunk asked as Ryoma was right in front of him, "You…."
Ryoma them spun on one foot, releasing several oil bubbles that immediately grew in size, twice the size of his head. The bubbles slowly floated towards Pinkpunk as the Rear-Admiral stepped to the side, a bit taken aback.
"Fiery Bubbles"
The bubbles came into contact with Pinkpunk, immediately combusting into explosions of flames, akin to napalm. The Rear-Admiral staggered back, the flames burning his clothes and hide.
"Aghh!!!" Pinkpunk bellowed in pain
"Pinkpunk!!!" Smoker exclaimed
Ryoma stopped spinning and pointed his finger at Pinkpunk.
"Converge"
Suddenly, the bubbles that were spread all around the area immediately flew towards Pinkpunk, combusting heavily on the rear-admiral and causing a massive explosion.
"Rear-Admiral!!" Rhea exclaimed, "Shit! Someone check on him!"
Samule caught her with a kick to the midsection, "Don't get distracted!!"
She reeled back, "You prick!" She swung her arms, "You're going to regret that!"
Chains flung at Samuel who avoided them with ease.
"I fucking hate chains…" he mentioned
"What a strange thing to say." Rhea said
Samuel appeared in front of her, "Yea yea."
"Shiga: Double Barrel!"
He hit Rhea in the midsection with a modified Shigan, using two fingers instead of one, coated in armament haki. The Captain was caught off guard by the speed of the attack, avoiding her defenses.
"S-Shit…!!" She managed
"Fucking marines…" Samuel scowled, "Always willing to die for something stupid like this. I am not someone you want to capture! I don't know anything!"
He pulled his arm back and followed it up with a roundhouse kick which Rhea was able to block. Still, the impact was enough to send her flying to a tree.
"Captain Rhea!!" Some Marines exclaimed
Over to Ryoma and Pinkpunk, the Rear-Admiral was on his belly, still in his beast form. The flames were dying down, only leaving a bit of smoke on his scorched hide.
"T-This power…." He panted, "You're far too dangerous if left alone…!"
"Mhm." Ryoma said as he lifted his sword, "If you say so."
He was going to swing his sword but was caught by a wave of smoke, constricting him tightly.
"Smoke…." Ryoma said as he looked to the side
"That's enough." Smoker said with a serious glare, "You're going to-"
He was cut off by Samuel elbowing him in rhe side of the face, a serious glare on his face.
"Shut the fuck up…" He said with an angry look, "How about you pay up?!"
Smoker hit the ground hard, "Urgh…." He said, "Armament Haki…."
Samuel straightened up, "I think its time to end this, right Ryoma?"
"Sure." Ryoma said as the smoke around him disappeared, "I don't see why not."
"Let's say goodbye to these buffoons."
