Roaming the seas of East Blue, the Krieg Pirates is truly a force to be reckoned with. 5000 strong, divided over 50 ships they are lead by the merciless Don Krieg. With such numbers they are the only group to pose a threat to the Arlong Pirates. As they sail the seas they are likely to attack any ship they come across.
General Narration / 1st Person point of view
" Speech "
' Thinking ' Actions / Name of Attacks
Following the paramount war, the world government went and initiated the world military draft. I enrolled into the marines but was fast recruited into the special program which later became known as the world military draft. It was a special program to allow many recruits who held the promise to be trained and climb the ranks. Though I say this the training was hell as we skipped out on all the paperwork and tests that were held for the normal method.
Reports had been going around about a pirate crew growing in numbers and behaving erratically. It was just a day ago my printer in my office began to print the bounties of those who were behaving oddly, they were none other than the Krieg Pirates. Though that wasn't the only report that was at my desk but also a chance of a bounty hunter having eyes full of hunger to prove himself.
The mission had commenced, the sky blue skies with drifting clouds would slightly darken as a storm was approaching and an exciting day indeed. The sea was calm but I knew they would be rocking the ship with me standing right in front of the ship with the slight gust of breeze making my jacket seem like it was hanging off my shoulders.
I'd look up into the skies ' Krieg Pirates, it's time I reign in them and their terror '
Achilles had returned from the Brakendian and Grondolier war with the Money he got as a reward. The Peace Treaty took him off guard as he was prepared to face off with Yasuao, the same man that he got to bond with as he let him stay on the Ship untill they got to the land. His sense of Honour and hospitality was truly that of a Wano Native. I wonder what I will spend this money on. Achilles had kept his Money in a pretty Durable safe in his relatively small boat. I probably should buy a bigger boat.
After the war Achilles was contacted by the world Government to take care of a growing problem in The East Blue, one of the weaker and more peaceful regions in this cruel and war stricken world. as he sailed to that Sea he got into a bit of trouble with the Natives in the first island he decided to stay in, apparently The East Blue residents aren't as informed about the rest of the world as he is used to so he got a lot of stares, one person asking him to take off his mask, kids not respecting his private space by touching his tail, and worst of all, people shooting him when he got into Barking contests with their dogs.
He had just reached The Marine Branch that contacted him, as his was sailing into the Island, he stared at the Bounty Posters of This Krieg fellow and his two strongest men. "Such a low Bounty, but looking at his resume, it's clear that he's gonna be a pain in the ass in the future". Achilles then looked at Gin's poster and got a bad feeling from just looking at his face.
Achilles had reached the Island and went to the Marine Branch Building where he was directed to go to the Battleship that will confront the Krieg Pirates. As he boarded the Ship he met the Marine Official who will lead the Battle. "Greetings, I am the Bounty hunter Achilles Ottoman, I assume you are the One who contacted me right?" @Dream
I'd turn around and look at Achillies, ' He's a mink, never seen one of them before ... hmmm '
" Achillies was it? ... As your onboard my ship, you'll be following every command ... Since we have a common enemy in sight i want you to save up as much stamina as you can before we encounter the Krieg Pirates. "
I'd then turn my attention to the marines who were mopping the deck, " Soldier come here, take this man to his quarters so he can be ready. "
I'll make sure that all preparations were made then head to the front of the ship and yell out " PREPARE TO SAIL OUT! "
" Achillies was it? ... As your onboard my ship, you'll be following every command ... Since we have a common enemy in sight i want you to save up as much stamina as you can before we encounter the Krieg Pirates. "
"I can assure you that I will make sure to do every Command you ask of me without any fail sir" Regardless if it's a Mink Officer or a Navy Officer, these authority figures are similar. Achilles remembered his rookie days in the Mink army.
"I will make sure to save my Stamina, I don't have time for small fry, I already have my sight on Krieg himself and his two Commanders" Especially that Gin fella
Achilles was then escorted to his quarters, as he was walking he remarked to the Marine men who were nervous beside him. "I Hope you guys have some bones to keep me busy untill we arrive" he said while laughing
As Achillies was escorted I would scoff out of disbelief but then form a little smile.
' I hope you can back those words kid. I'd like to see what you have to offer. '
As the mink was escorted to his room, one of the soldiers would show him to his room and state "We will be clashing with the Krieg Pirates within two days time." as a moment of silence before he would speak again noting the skies above still had the sun out. "We have been stationed by the commodore to stand outside and if you need anything you can let us know." In a way, it felt like the commodore was wary and had placed him in a cell but myths and legends stirred in the mind of mine. So I had to keep all precautions on the table especially related to the myth of minks.
' I was told a while back at HQ's there's something about the Minks and the moon. Myth has it that they turn to vicious beasts of the moon, bound by it like werewolves. I hope these are nothing but myths and nothing more. '
My thought process was simple but wary, minks were still considered fable species for those that are written within books of myths and legends. Though most of the books referred to werewolves but these books came from early men who encountered minks. I wanted to see these myths and legends myself and have some first-hand knowledge myself. But my mind was still clouded like a pot stirred with all these here says.
I would shake myself off those thoughts noticing we had begun traversing the oceans with the crewmen scurrying about performing their respective vessel operations. Meanwhile, at the front of the deck, I stood at the front of the ship cross-armed gazing as far as my eyesight could see into the distance whilst also keeping an eye out in the vicinity for any other lurkers.
As the mink was escorted to his room, one of the soldiers would show him to his room and state "We will be clashing with the Krieg Pirates within two days time."
Achilles entered looked at Room, it had some nice Decorations and some Marine Symbols. Staying two days in this place doesn't seem so bad after all the Terrible Hotel services I experienced on the way here.
Achilles had noticed that Marine Guards staring at the sky for a bit. He wondered if they knew about what happens to Minks on a Full Moon night. Remembering that he had to master his Sulong form yet.
As The Marines said that, he just stared at his bed before laying on it. Trying to forget about the Embarrassment of not knowing how to control his Sulong form when he recently got news from home about a Younger Rabbit Mink mastering it.
"Well actually, If you don't mind" he started licking his Paw fur. "Could you lend me a hand? My teeth can't reach my back" he tried to bite his back, failing to do so.
While the Guards hesitantly caressed his back, he grabbed his sword and managed to Coat it with Electro.
Electro Coating (requires 41 mastery): channeling energy through their fur, the mink covers their weapon in a layer of electricity that will shock on contact.
I should have started learning Swordmanship a long time ago, I was too prideful to admit that a Sword can be more deadly than my claws, how foolish of me.
he had remembered his failure to defeat the Kraken back then. Had I used this sword back then, I would have Killed that damn Squid.
The Guards were taken back by the sudden burst of electricity. Making them almost Panic.
"Oh relax, I didn't mean to startle you". He got up And Threw The Bounty posters of the Two Krieg Pirates Commanders and Krieg himself in the air before Burning them with an Electro sword swipe.
"I am just gonna sleep for the rest of the trip, I will call you if I need anything" he told the guards who took the cue to leave the room while he laid on his bed again and fell asleep.
The sun beat down heavily on the Kreig Pirate Fleet as they sailed through the open waters of the East Blue. Having just recently engaged with a small Marine Fleet, busy work was being done taking stock of the spoils of war on the fleet Flagship.
Meanwhile in the captain's quarters, the infamous Don Kreig was having a private meeting with his right hand men. Both men stood infront of him as he conversed with them while seated.
"We managed to recruit another 100 men along the way. I think we should be all but ready to make way to the Grandline wouldnt we, Gin?"
Kreig gazed coldly at Gin quietly waiting for his reply. Gin held his gaze and stepped forward.
"Yes, Captain. With this new addition to our numbers this should make our fleet 5000 men strong. Pearl just got the results of our stocks."
Gin looked back and Pearl wasted no time stepping forward. He gave the results with a cocky grin donned on his face.
"We have enough food in store to last us months once we reach the Grandline and enough weapons to arm every single man in the fleet. No one will be able to stop us!"
Perfect!
Kreig rose from his seat with a smirk and began to make his way to the door. He was wearing a regal attire consisting of a fur-lined coat over a yellow vest with black spots-like motifs. His right hand men followed him as he stopped right in the middle of the deck. Kreig was about to make an announcement.
"MEN OF THE KREIG PIRATE FLEET!"
His voiced boomed loud enough for every single ship to hear. All of his crewmates grew silent.
"TODAY MARKS THE DAY WE BEGIN OUR VOYAGE TO THE GRANDLINE! WE ARE 5000 MEN STRONG! WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE AND WE WILL CRUSH ANYONE WHO STANDS IN OUR WAY!"
A huge uproar began in the wake of Kreig's announcement. It had almost seemed like the Ocean was shaking. Gin and Pearl exchanged glances with a smile, while Don Kreig stood there with his hands behind his back and a grin plastered to his face.
"Theres nobody stopping us now, I cannot be defeated!"
It was the early hours of the day and I continued gazing out from watching the shooting stars in the pitch night and the sunrise. I maintained course knowing the Krieg Pirates had to be stopped and it was now or never.
"Sir I request some rest" a crewmate who'd been mopping and preparing the rooms as well. Instead of turning around to see the young man I'd simply reply with a " Sure, make sure you tell the men to sleep but stay alert "
" By the way, how's that bounty hunter? " I'd ask him to which he would hum then reply "Hmm, I heard he went to the cabin you provided him, sir. He'd request a backscratching sort of device but the soldiers were confused and a little put off sir."
Hearing this I knew the crewmen were a little perplexed as it was no human but a mink. " Tell them to continue providing support to the Bounty Hunter ... " with a few seconds with the ship cruising through the ocean with flickers splattering upwards like an explosion.
" You ever heard of the Krieg Pirates? " as the crewmate would reply "I've heard rumors only and isn't that a pirate armada of some sort?"
I'd let out a laugh " Fu, well everything you've heard is true. But I need you to go sleep but make sure you alert everyone we are about to ram into them sometime soon " ... to which the soldier saluted "YES SIR!"
" Dismissed "
With the soldier heading back to the barracks, the oceans were calm before the terror that was to befall them. Debris from a ship would be sighted with marine insignia and soldiers laying at the top lifeless with birds squawking as they dig their beaks into the flesh of the soldiers.
My heart would waver wanting to do something but I'd hold restraint as I could do nothing to bring them back however as my sleep would begin to take effect a silhouette of a large ship would appear in front of the sunrise.
The Krieg Pirates were in view
" ALL SOLDIERS UP AND FRONT, EMBRACE ENCOUNTER AND ACHILLES GET OUT NOW! " I'd roar to get not only the soldiers to be ready but also Achillies.
As the ship was sailing on calm water, The Dog Mink was half asleep in his Chamber unaware of the misfortune going on outside.
He was dreaming about Roaming an open field and chasing after Squirrels and other small animals that he always hated. Only to be awaken by the loud screaming coming from the Deck.
As he heard the voice commanding him to come, his dog instincts kicked in and he ran as quick as he can to The Marine Officer, after opening his Chamber door he ran faster than the Marine Soldiers who were also answering the Marine Officer's call.
"I came as fast I could sir" he told the Marine Officer as he reached the Deck, while all the Marine Soldiers also arrived a few moments later Achilles had seen The Large Ship coming near them. It was The Krieg Pirate Fleet.
I Didn't know pirates had Ships that size, especially ones from The East Blue, looks like I underestimated these Rookies.
He then awaited for the Marine Officer's command as all the Marine Soldiers had arrived behind him.
After Kreig's speech he returned to his quarters, leaving Gin and Pearl in command for the time being. They oversaw the distribution of food and weapons to every ship in the fleet. It wasnt long before a crewmate who took postion in the crows nest of the Dreadnaught Sabre noticed an on coming Marine vessel.
"COMMANDER GIN, ONCOMING MARINE SHIP HEADED IN OUR DIRECTION"
At hearing this, Gin made his way to the bow of the ship and extended his gaze straight ahead to spot the oncoming vessel. It didnt take long for Pearl to make his way to Gin's location with a sinister grin plastered on his face.
"The Marines are active these days. Since it's only one ship, we can overwhelm them easily and swiftly with the armada."
Gin shook his head in disagreement and looked pearl in the face.
"We can crush them with just the main ship. Tell the rest of the fleet to stay put, we'll go ahead and take them out ourselves. Kreig wont even have to lift a finger."
With that, Pearl made the order and the Kreig pirates got ready for battle. The Dreadnaught Saber moved forward alone, one thousand men strong to quickly destroy another Marine vessel.
While the other four thousand cheered them on. Expecting a crushing defeat for their enemies.
The sighting of a huge galleon ship was sighted and I roared to the men to prepare themselves whilst also informing the bounty hunter. Though the first appearance of the ship was somewhat of a ghost-type ship with how the sails were appearing to me however I could tell it was no ghost ship.
" Achillies I want you to come to the forefront now! " I'd yell out an order to which a nearby marine soldier's ears would twitch upon hearing striking them as they shivered a little and hesitated in their duty. Gulping as he saluted and replied "Yes sir" as he was then met with another soldier who was passing on a message from Achillies himself.
The two marine soldiers would pass the message on to not just myself but also Achillies.
I stared daggers at the Krieg Pirates remembering the rapport of who they were.
The Krieg Pirates or otherwise known as the Pirate Armada, under the guise of a tyrannical captain that feared the east orientated of the four seas. The captain's name was none other than Don Krieg. Don Krieg, a self-proclaimed Pirate Armada Admiral a man with a fleet of ships and a huge gargantuan of a ship for his main ship. I didn't remember the name of the ship but the atrocity's that the man himself committed were the reason I focused my attention on.
The 17 million wanted beli on his head, either make him a force to be with and a huge thorn later or now was the perfect chance to cut the roots out whilst they started.
' This is the man that killed a marine soldier, pirated his ship, and kickstarted his life of piracy. '
The thought of letting this man off the leash was a headache on a bad day and I couldn't let sail the oceans. Hence why I needed Achillies as he was part of the plan in taking him down.
The Tensions in the Battleship were in an all time high, Soldiers were caught off guard from the sudden appearance of the Krieg Pirates and their Fleet. Although despite all that they were clearly mentally ready to risk their lives in this battle.
Compared to the Brackendians and many other Royal Soldiers that hired me, these guys are clearly the most disciplined Soldiers I have seen since leaving Zou.
Achilles was Observing the situation and Krieg's fleet before a Marine Officer delivered a Message to him from the Leader of this Marine Battleship.
After hearing this order Achilles rushed to the Forefront of the Ship, Hoping he isn't late for the start of the battle with the Krieg Pirates. I will at last test that Power after training it for so long, Krieg is perfect as my first Sulong victim. Achilles said as his Lust for battle was taking control as he headed to the Front of the Ship.
The distance between the two vessels was gradually getting smaller and the Kreig Pirates were anxcious to get started. Ten men lined up around the bow of The Dreadnaught Saber with their rifles aimed directly at the marine ship, while twenty began diving into the water to begin boarding.
Pearl and Gin overlooked the choatic strategy of their crewmates with big smiles plastered on their faces.
"Hahaha, look at how lively the men are! Kreig would be proud!"
Gin nodded his head in agreement.
"Everyone will do their own thing, when the ship get closer we'll board ourselves and deal with the marines swiftly."
After saying that, the crew began the offensive. The gunmen at the bow all began firing the first round of bullets out of their rifles with intentions of picking off some marines before their companions in the waters down below began boarding.
Gunslinging: 30
30 = C Rank Bullets
DPR: 21-40 Street Level
C Rank Bullets = +1
Total DPR: 41-60 Wall/Tree Level[\Spoiler]
I'd stare and simply laugh at the attempt of responding at our presence by the Krieg Pirates. ' I want this Don Krieg and i get his lackey's '
Taking a short sneak behind me noting the men were well disciplined in marine combat were all prepared brought a little chuckle ' Well I'll be damned '. It was just only a week I was met with new recruits joining under my command so seeing these soldiers well trained was a sight to behold. As this would rub off my soldiers that were already under my command and make them well versed. After all the soldiers that were already one-two maybe more steps ahead came directly from headquarters following my promotion.
" Achillies you ready young mink? ... So you ready for a challenge? ... Terminate anyone without a bounty "
I'd then arc myself down having my knee almost touch the deck before I sprung by kicking myself directly into the air, " Geppo " before twirling to change the directory in the direction of the cannon fire that was aimed at us before smirking as I swung back my leg and pelvis before using my next move " Rankyuaku! " launching a kick at the direction at the canons. From the tips of my feet compressed air formed before changing to a compressed blade as it launched itself at the canon fire.

As the Two Ships got closer to each other, the long awaited battles between the Rising Rookie Fleet of the East and The Marines and the Hunter drew closer.
The Krieg Pirates were getting ready to attack the Marine Ship, an act that they have done so many times in their relatively new history as a pirate crew.
Achilles noticed that Krieg isn't leading the Fleet. So his Commanders are confident they can take us down without his help, they are in for a rude awakening.
"Yes Sir" he responded while Unsheathing hia sword.
As the Marine Officer used Rokushiki to target the Gunfire aimed at the ship, Achilles had noticed the Krieg Pirates trying to take advantage of the Gunfire to Board the ship. As they were reaching the surface of the ship Achilles quickly Took Action.
Achilles charges himself at the pirates while Coating His Sword with the Electro generated from his Fur, with his Sword filled with Electro energy, he Swings his Sword at the Krieg Pirates who boarded the ship in a Large swing to electrify as many enemies as possible.
Electro Coating (requires 41 mastery): channeling energy through their fur, the mink covers their weapon in a layer of electricity that will shock on contact.

The marines counter attacked quickly leaving the two commanders surprised. A large air projectile suddenly soared through the air from the vessel, easily tearing through the bullets fired from the men before just as quickly reaching the bow of the Dreadnaught Saber. All ten Kreig Pirates fell dead, a shower of blood and limbs spread over the deck of the ship leaving the others stunned and panicked.
Gin grit his teeth as flash of light was seen coming from the marine ship, not too long followed by the screams of the boarding team.
What the hell are these guys? I've never seen this type of power from Marines before. Are they Devil Fruit users?
The disorganized tactics of the Kreig Pirates were no match for the might of these Marines, and soon enough the distance between the two ships was near non-existant. Gin turned to Pearl with a serious look on his face.
"It looks like it's only up to us to kill these Marines. If Kreig was out here he would call us all pathetic."
Pearl cracked a smile.
"Let's let the marines board our ship instead. Home field advantage and all."
Gin looked back forward without a word, getting ready to engage while ten more Kreig Pirates dived into the water in an attempt to board the enemy ship in vain.
I simply had stared as my rankyuaku attack torn into some of the men of the Krieg Pirates and seen how Achillies reacted to the men. ' crap I was meant to pay attention to him '
" Hey Kid, wanna make this interesting? " I'd ask Achilles though before he could reply " So how about we lure them here or you wanna go over to them? " I'd point at the ship housing the Krieg Pirates with a sinister grin.
The aim was simple to quickly dispose of, though when one uses the word dispose it wasn't to kill them but capture them. Gin and Pearl both possessed bounties that the young mink could capitalize on. Gone was my curiosity on playing counter offense against them and now was a more nonchalant reply. It was 180 degrees turn on my sense of justice and my accolades within the system of justice, the marines. I was turning out to be a villain of some tv show but as a marine.
Something was changing within, was the lust of power? the greed of adventure? or the wrath of justice? ... no it wasn't any of them but my own sense of justice was clouded with bloodlust and the urgency of reining in Don Krieg and his posse.
