Behind the din of combat the yells, screams of rage and fright, Hanabi could not hear her captain's orders. She had to defeat the man who was shooting at their ship, take him down. He hadn't seemed to even recognize her presence even with a direct challenge.
Hanabi looked around seeing the ship being consumed in flames and looked straight at her enemy, he still was ignoring her and she was getting pissed off. She started to stalk towards the figure seeing a clear line, she was in range to attack.
Hanabi lowered herself into a low combat stance and aimed at the man all but vanishing in a sudden blur of motion covering the distance of twenty yards between him and her in a split second in her trademark Slam Charge aiming to strike the man directly in the spine with the ridge of her shield. She was aiming to break his lower spine.
With the way the fire was spreading Hanabi wasn't sure how much time she'd have, but after this, she planned to leap into the water and grab anything that could float and wasn't on fire.

Bellow deck where the sound of the explosions were dim sat a tall man who was six foot nine with his hair done up in a religious buddist way, his muscles like bands of iron wrapped around his bones and skin a soft tanned color resembling thick hide. His face was a calm face filled with the serenity of a lifetime of training, a black dot on his forehead.
His name was Bombastic Ming, he was a warrior who strove for justice in all things and he HATED the world government, they were corrupt and evil, a hypo-critic government that were just as much pirates as the pirates they claimed to fight.
On this stolen marine ship he had gotten boarding and passage, he had been meaning to head to Loguetown and see if he couldn't do something to alleviate the pressure of the evil hands of a government that legalized the most powerful of pirates.
But now, things has changed the ship was burning, and he owed these people who carried him no quarter, they were as evil as the government they fought.
He stood, grabbing his staff its massive heavy iron capped tips cracking the deck slightly as he slammed it to the deck standing.
Today all evil here would know the wrath of Bombastic Ming, The warrior known as the Buff Buddha.
He crouched leaping, slamming through the decks above him slamming through the pirates who were above him like they were not even there, landing on the deck.
Ming peered around seeing two fighting on the deck, he recognized one as a prisoner from the ship, he had never spoken to her personally, but from what he gathered she was innocent. The ship around her was burning and with the tide of corrupt pirates around them it would be a matter of time before Asta was overtaken by numbers.
Ming crouched again whispering a Mantra to himself, his silent prayer a method of focus for himself in stressful times, it had no special power in itself aside from the fact it inspired the Buff Buddha and helped keep his mind calm.
He leaped in a great leap landing next Asta, "Grab my arm if you want to live... The lifeboats on this ship were burned with the rear of the ship."[/b] Bombastic Ming waited for her reply. He was no evil man, and he knew she didn't deserve to die in a fire, he had plans to destroy both ships, but at least he could give this girl a chance to get to the lifeboats of the other ship and the innocent ones would be spared an agonizing death. Seeing Asta's friend in toe he said to him, "You come over here too, I am no friend to these pirates and I am your best shot not to die in a fire."[/b] The Buff Buddha's voice was deep and audible, a calm baritone that seemed to carry cleanly through the din of the combat like light through the darkness.
