Sea King Emerges

[oblivion]

After what happen on Micqueot Island Zack could not forgive himself. However, he knows that going back is not an option because with the wounds that he suffered there is no way that he can take on all the marines. Though he does vow that even if he cannot return and get his vengeance, he will become notice throughout the world and will not let something like that happen again.

As he forgets about what happened he looks at the rudder from his small beat down boat and shifts it on a path toward The Holy Remunun Empire. Even though navigation is not something that Zack would consider his good at or proclaim it, there is basic knowledge behind him and it helps him out, but these basic skills are not good enough to go through a lot of things. Either way he has to relay on them since there is no navigator who could lead the way.

One the way to his new destination he figures that he should probably not go on one on one and start to form a crew so he can later on set sail toward the Grand Line and dominate it as he plans to. Instead of causing trouble in The Holy Remunun Empire like he has done in the past. When he gets there, he will look around for possible people who can be recruited into his crew and hopefully he will find a navigator since to him this is the most important position in any crew.

By thinking about the future he forgot about the present and is surprised by seeing a sea king standing in front of his path. It does startle him a little bit since it shook him away from his planning. Even though his body might not be at full strength Zack knows that he has more than enough power to beat a sea king and send it back to the bottom of the ocean so it can become food for other sea kings and fish.

This specific Sea King was a giant tuna with green and blue scales. Although it was massive, dwarfing even navy ships, it was not the smartest of the bunch. It had somehow gotten lost and had traveled hundreds of miles trying to find its way back home. Now it couldn't remember which way was which.

Seeing a little speck on the water, the Sea King decided it might be food. It was hungry right now, and there wasn't much food around. It had eaten a few whales, but that could hardly keep it full for very long. The Sea King decided to take a closer look at the speck.

Surfacing, the Sea King could see that the speck was a raft with a person in it. Not very filling, but it would have to do for now.

Opened its massive jaw and swam towards the raft. He intended to eat the entire raft in one bite. Water flowed into the open mouth, and the raft went along with the tide towards the maw of the beast. The stench of rotten flesh would bellow out of the Sea King's mouth as its past meals escaped, but only as smell. Giant teeth the size of houses gleamed as the quickly flowing water splashed against it.

[oblivion]

Seeing the sea king is a first for Zack since he had never ever seen one before this day. He does admit that a sea king can be intimidating for someone who has not experience anything in life. However, he has experience a lot in his life that he finds far worse than a mere sea king. Even though the mouth of the sea king looks like it could swallow a two story house in just a single bite. Either way he has to defeat this sea king because it is attacking him. At the same time he figures this to be a gift from God since he can use this sea king for him to relieve his anger that is eating him alive because of what happen on Micqueot to him before.

He knows that this sea king is nothing and he could take care of him, but the problem is that he is on a little beat down boat that he has to paddle and in the middle of the sea where if he falls into it he will be his doom for sure due to his inability to swim because of the devil fruit that he ate when he was younger. For this reason he starts to think of something that can help him salvage the situation and will allow him to do something in which he can defeat the sea king and still keep his small boat.

After having some quick thoughts pop up in his head, he decided what to finally do. Using his glue ability Zack makes two spears of glue that are about five feet long and two feet in width. Then using his control over glue he launches them toward the sea king aiming for the sea king’s eyes so it can become blind.

[darthlegolas]

The glue hit the Sea King's eyes directly, but only caused it a slight discomfort. However, as the glue stuck to its eyes and prevented it from seeing anything, the monster became more alarmed.

Why couldn't it see? It tried blinking several times, but it did not help. The Sea King stopped swimming forward, and the raft's trip into the maw stopped for a while.

After a few more blinks, the giant Tuna moaned in anger. It could only think of one thing to do now. Diving back into the water, the Sea King swam like mad, trying to get this stuff off of its eyes. A huge wave rocked the small raft as the Sea King submerged.

As the Sea King swam, the ocean disolved the glue on its eyes. Slowly, its vision returned. The sea king was so relieved that it could see again. It wanted to celebrate with all of its friends. Where were they? Oh yeah, he was lost. He was also hungry. The Sea King looked around for food, but could only find a small speck on the surface. Had he seen that speck before?

Swimming back towards the raft, the Sea King examined it under water before surfacing next to it. Suddenly, he remembered. This was the human with the blinding stuff! The Sea King roared at the small raft before charging right at it, hoping to sink the raft in one hit.

After seeing the sea king submerged Zack figures that it got scared and decided to run off. He sits back down as the day gets even hotter and starts to paddle once again the scrappy boat toward his destination. Looking at the sun he starts to think about the future and what he will be able to do with a crew once he gathers one. However, his day dreaming is soon ruin when a bunch of bubbles appear on the water surface, though he did not know it was this, he just heard a noise.

Immediately after hearing the noise of the bubbles bursting he looks around to see if something caused it, but he did not see anything in the vast ocean. Then he starts to look up toward the clouds to see if maybe something is falling down, but there is nothing up in the sky except for the bright sun and the white clouds traveling through the blue sky. Since there is nothing above or far away Zack moves his attention toward the area around him. Scratching his head Zack starts to wonder what caused the noise, but since he could not find anything he picked up the paddle and started to once again row.

Soon after the paddling began the sea king emerged once again next to the scrappy boat. Then right afterwards without warning the sea king moves into the boat with his mouth wide open as he tries to engulf it. This view is obviously one that will make anyone freak out. In a way Zack did sort of froze for a moment, but quickly snapping out of it he attacks the sea king with his glue meteor shower technique. This is an attack in which Zack holds his hands in the air and starts to shoot glue as if it is a meteor shower. Zack aims for the big target of the sea king’s mouth. The point is to make the sea king digest something bad which will maybe create an opening for him to make an attack that would finish the sea king.

[darthlegolas]

The Sea King was almost on top of the small raft now. Suddenly, glue meteors were shot into its mouth. The Sea King had such a huge mouth that it had no chance to close it before the meteors hit. The glue went right through its jaws and into its stomach. As the glue built up, it began to coat the Sea King's stomach.

Eventually, this build up of glue in the Sea King's stomach would cause it severe digestive pain, if not death. However, that would not be for several hours. For now, the enormous size of the monster was dwarfing any pain it was experiencing. The Sea King had no idea that eating glue, or a glue-man, could be bad for the digestion. It had always just eaten whatever it could find. For this reason, the Sea King ignored the glue meteors and kept swimming full speed at the little raft. Its giant mouth fully surrounded it with plenty of room to spare.

As the tide pulled the little raft inside the Sea King's mouth, the light of the outside world would quickly begin to fade. The Sea King continued swimming, but closed its mouth. The giant teeth clenched together, and the small raft was alone in the darkness.

[oblivion]

Zack sees the big red mouth of the sea king and all the huge drops of saliva that starts to drip from the sea king as it starts to cover him and the raft’s daylight. Instead of panic like most people will be since it seems that his life will end here he starts to think of what he can possibly do to survive. After looking at the sharp teethes of the sea king an idea popped in his head that will help him survive and defeat the sea king. Now he starts to put his plan in motion.

To begin with, Zack covers the bottom of his shoes with glue and attaches them to the small boat so it can stick together. Afterwards he shoots glue toward the tip of the sea king’s sharp teeth as if it were a spider web so he can hold himself onto it. Normally the saliva would not allow him to do this because it will dissolve the glue making it soft instead of hard and sticky, but usually the tips of the teeth do not have saliva since it dry’s off after having the mouth open for a while.

The next step in his plan is to use his left hand and draw out both of his daggers. After grabbing both daggers he throws one of them down the mouth throw the throat hoping that will at least affect the sea king somehow by scratching up the throat. Though he is not just relaying on the dagger down the throat to do enough damage. The other dagger is thrown at the tongue of the sea king. He hopes that this will be enough damage for him to get out of certain dead.

[darthlegolas]

The Sea King had gotten its prey inside its mouth, but now it was time to swallow it. It felt a small prick in its throat as the dagger stabbed into it, and other prick when the other dagger hit his tongue. The Sea King was used to such trivial pains when eating. Most of his prey tried to escape in some way, but none were ever successful.

The Sea King started to swallow. All the water in its mouth started to drain into its throat. If the raft hadn't been stuck together by glue, it would have been torn apart by the turbulant water. In the complete darkness of the monster's mouth, there was no way to see what horrors awaited any unfortunate food. Stomach acid met and devoured everything that entered the next "room." The raft was able to stay out of the stomach because of the glue holding Zack to the teeth like a life-line.

The Sea King was not aware that its meal had evaded digestion. It had swallowed, and nothing had ever escaped before. It couldn't feel the raft, even after it settled on the semi-dry tongue. The size difference was simply too great for the Sea King to notice.

The Sea King submerged back into the ocean and continued its swim, unaware that someone lurked inside its mouth.

[oblivion]

The sea water rushing inside the mouth of the sea king scared Zack for moment, but luckily for him the water level did not raise above the small boat glued onto his feet. However, he is still not off the hock because the sea king starts to close its mouth and if it closes it completely the life line that he had created will be snapped. This makes him realize that it is time to think of something that could once again save him from certain death. It has to be a quick thought because time is almost running out, if not then he will not be able to escape death this time.

In the mouth there are no dry spots, so his glue will not become sticky and hardened due to the saliva. Just as he thought that he could not anything, a thought popped in his head as quick as lightning. Normally he could just stay on the tongue because there is no more water, but at any moment if there is no support he could be swallowed since the sea king can move his head up and this would make him fall down the enormous throat that the sea king has. For this reason he must make sure that he is anchored somewhere to the mouth of the sea king. However, before he could anchor himself, the mouth of the sea king closed completely and his life line snapped within a few moments, but he got lucky and did not fall down the throat.

Before anything else can happen he takes both of his katanas and covers the hilt with glue which is connected to his waist. Though before he does anything with the katanas, Zack starts to shoot some more glue down the throat. Afterwards, he takes both katanas and stabs the tongue of the sea king. Right after he raises both of his hands and shoots more glue toward the throat of the sea king.

[darthlegolas]

The Sea King felt a sharp pain on its tongue. The katanas had hit a nerve, and the monster's eyes opened in discomfort. Fortunately, the Sea King did not open its mouth to relieve the pain. It had the hunting technique of keeping its mouth full of air so that it could trap prey by sucking in a lot of water suddenly. For this reason, it did not open its mouth, and Zack was able to stay alive.

The Sea King stopped paying attention to where he was swimming. The deep discomfort that was forming in his stomach continued getting worse, for Zack's glue was messing up its digestion. The Sea King started swimming towards the surface. It had no idea where it was going at this point. It was just swimming hard in a vain attempt to make the pain go away.

Suddenly, the Sea King broke the surface of the water and flew into the air. It floated beautifully above the ocean before falling right onto a very hard rock. The Sea King felt its spine crack from the impact of hitting solid land. Opening its eyes, the Sea King saw that he had landed on an island, specifically the Holy Remunun Empire. Its huge body had landed on a few small houses at the edge of town. People screamed and ran away from the giant monster. They had never seen anything so big before.

The Sea King would never be able to get back out to sea. It realized that it was going to die. Opening its mouth, it gave a moan of pain and hopelessness.

[oblivion]

After piercing the tongue of the sea king and shooting some more glue down the throat Zack hears a large cry of pain. Moments after, the sea king starts moving around making it hard to sustain both katanas on the tongue. However, Zack is still anchored to the mouth as it apparently starts to turn into a straight line that is going upwards. This is actually great because the sea king is going above the water level and it is not going to open its mouth under the water, which if it did Zack would have ended up dead.

The feeling of going on a straight line like if it was a rollercoaster going up getting ready for the drop quickly vanished. The following motion is really horrible since it makes him lose all three of the anchors and fall down all around the sea kings mouth. All of the saliva has covered Zack since he just rolled all over the mouth. At the same time, he hears a thump and something breaking.

Zack gets up a bit dizzy and looks around wondering why the sea king is upside down. Either way he sees that the mouth is open and there is light coming through with not water, which made him wonder why is this happening if they were on the sea a few moments ago. As he starts to walk toward the opening he picks up both of his katanas along the way and also sees that the small boat is completely destroyed.

By the time he gets out there are some people approaching the sea king, by the looks of it they are marines. Since he is right now in no condition to fight marines Zack starts to run away and finds a place to hide. However, as he is running he sees a city and when he looks closely it is the location where he wanted to get to, The Holy Remunun Empire.
