"Freyja, this is utterly boring! Why didn't you tell me sailing the seas would be so dull! We hadn't encountered a single ship in the past three days!" Yelled Diddy angrily from his lying position while eyeing Freyja, who was currently operating the helm.

"What do you want me to say, Diddy? South Blue is massive; besides, we should reach Baterilla by tomorrow; you can release your boredom once we arrive." Replied Freyja with a twitch of her eye while glancing at Diddy lying in the middle of the deck.

"Tch, Baterilla isn't going to be that fun anyways; it's even smaller than Karate Island on the map." Said Diddy in annoyance.

"And whose fault is that? Who's the one that decided to head to Baterilla in the first place, Captain?" Remarked Freyja in frustration along with emphasis, causing Diddy to huff in annoyance.

"Hmph, whatever; I'm hungry; I'm going to hunt something." Stated Diddy as he stood up and grabbed his staff beside him before jumping overboard into the sea.

Submerging myself underwater, I used geppo as I powerfully kicked the water beneath my feet, causing me to propel myself through the water as if It didn't even exist; funnily enough, geppo is meant to be used in the sky, which is obviously above water, but since water is a liquid, it's much easier to use the technique while underwater, even with the additional restriction from being underwater.

While moving deeper into the sea, I spotted numerous aquatic lifeforms, such as fish, sharks, dolphins, whales, and whatever else you could possibly name; however, they were, of course, much large than their counterparts on Earth. There were a lot of options to choose from, but none of them interested me enough, so I continued diving even deeper into the sea, which resulted in my visibility lowering to the point where I was nearly in pitch blackness, though while it was a disadvantage, my other senses made up for my lack of sight.

'Now then, where are you, Sea Kings!?' Thought Diddy with a feral smile full of excitement as he searched through the ocean for prey.

With the sheer size of sea kings, it didn't take long to find one, although since it was pretty dark down here, I couldn't properly make out its features, but its body shape resembled that of an eel or snake. Shortly after I spotted the sea king, it also spotted me as it loudly roared, causing the surrounding water to tremble, before swiftly charging toward me, moving at speeds one wouldn't expect from creatures this big, though even in the face of such a monstrous beast, I wasn't the slightest bit perturbed.

'Hehe, c'mon you beast, I'm very curious to know how Sea King's taste!' Thought Diddy with an eager expression as he kicked off the water and approached the sea king, easily out speeding the beast.

As we swiftly neared one another, the beast opened its massive jaws, intending to swallow me in one gulp, though such a thing was easily dodged as I kicked myself to the right of the beast just before it snapped its maws closed. Now on the right side of sea king, just before its eye, which was at least four times my size, I brandished my staff before powerfully swinging it on top of its mouth, pushing the beast down several meters before it regained its bearings.

'Tch thought as much; none of my attacks will do much damage; the creature is just too fucking big.' Thought Diddy in annoyance as he propelled himself through the water while attacking the sea king's body all over.

Putting the staff in front of me, I blocked the beast's tail swipe before counter-attacking by slamming my staff onto its tail, pushing it back several meters; yet, although that attack was relatively strong, I might as well be stabbing the sea king with a needle, since it still looks rather lively even after injuring it numerous times.

'Annoying, I prefer using my staff to fight, but it's already been several minutes; I don't want to waste any more time-fighting something so weak.' Mused Diddy with a frown as he holstered Naga-sa onto his back.

'72 Bian, variation 54: Fish-Man Karate.' Thought Diddy as he got into his fighting stance while the beast quickly neared him.

The sea king used the same attack as before; he charged toward me with his maw wide open, attempting to devour me in one bite, yet just like what previously happened, I propelled myself to the left, appearing before his eye. With my fist right beside my chest, I punched forward, utilizing fish-man karate that I had mastered over the past five years.

'Samegawara Seiken.' Thought Diddy with a savage grin as he punched the side of the beast's head, though unlike before, where his attacks caused minimal damage, this time was different; his attack traveled throughout the beast's entire body.

While smirking, I retracted my fist from the sea king's body and glanced at his eyes, which had gone white as his body went limp, resulting in him slowly sinking; however, I wasn't going to let that happen, I had come down here for food after all. Appearing beneath the corpse, I lifted it up before propelling myself back to the surface, causing various aquatic life to flee in fear from the sight of a sea king.

Exiting the water, I jumped into the air while hauling about a massive beast, which forced me to use much more power in my kicks if I wanted to use geppo, though it wasn't anything I couldn't handle.

'Must've been fighting for a while; I don't even see our ship.' Mused Diddy while observing the ocean, only to see nothing but blue water as far as the eye could see.

Although I couldn't spot my ship, it was fine; Freyja's body emits a very potent and unique scent, something that would be nearly impossible for me to miss; inhaling the air, I caught a whiff of Freyja, causing me to smirk as I propelled myself through the air while following the scents tail. Not even a minute later, I spotted my ship in the distance while my jolly roger swayed about in the wind; as I neared the boat, I slowly lowered myself onto the deck, causing the ship to sink a few inches before stabilizing.

"That's quite a haul; no wonder it took you so long." Remarked Freyja lightly as she looked up at Diddy and the massive sea king that was even larger than their ship.

"Hehe, we're eating good tonight!" Said Diddy with a smile as he set the sea king down on the deck and began butchering it with his sharp nails, something he's very proficient at.

As I cut the sea king into numerous slabs of meat roughly half my size, which took quite some time, I tossed the rest of the carcass overboard; although there were still some things I could've harvested from the beast, what I had acquired was more than enough to satisfy Freyja and I for two weeks.

"You should know the stove isn't big enough to cook items of that proportions." Said Freyja calmly as she sat at the helm, though Diddy merely smirked.

"Who said I was using the oven?" Asked Diddy as he raised his arm, causing arcs of lightning to emerge from his body.

Now, don't be surprised; as I said before, I've gotten much stronger in the past five years; emitting electricity and mastering my fighting technique is just the tip of the iceberg. Besides, this shouldn't be that surprising; lighting emits from my whole body whenever I transform, so it's nothing new.

Grabbing a piece of meat roughly half my size, with the use of my lightning, I had it cook the meat, and rather quickly, to boot, as in a matter of a few minutes, it released an irresistible smell.

"Want one?" Asked Diddy as he glanced at Freyja while eating his cooked steak with one hand while cooking another slab of meat with his other hand.

"No, I'm good; I think I'll just cook it like a normal person." Replied Freyja as she entered the underside of the ship while bringing along with her sea king meat.

"Suit yourself." Said Diddy as he ignored her and continued eating until he was satisfied, which was quite a lot considering his size.

While Diddy and Freyja were sailing towards Baterilla, the reinforcements that Captain Shu called had arrived, and the one leading them was Rear Admiral Hina, a relatively powerful Marine officer.

Looking about the city, I saw nothing but corpses that littered the streets, filling me with disgust and anger at the monster that could commit such a massacre, and while deep in my thoughts, I saw a marine quickly running toward me.

"Rear Admiral Hina, I've located Captain Shu among the numerous corpses." Said a marine with eyes full of anger as he saluted before a woman with pink hair wearing a red suit, glasses, and a marine cape who was currently smoking a cigarette.

"Lead Hina to him." Ordered Hina with a sigh as she exhaled smoke while following behind the marine.

Walking through the streets while stepping over corpse after corpse, the marine and I eventually arrived before a dried-up corpse that stood out among the rest; squatting down, I turned the corpse over onto its back, allowing me to see his face properly.

'Just like every other person, yet, why does he look happy?' Mused Hina with a frown as she eyed Shu's dried-up corpse.

"Load him onto the ship; as a marine officer, he deserves a proper burial." Ordered Hina as she puffed out smoke while the marine saluted before heading back towards the ship.

Just as I was about to explore the city, hoping to find something, I saw another marine running toward me, though this time, there was something in her hand.

"Rear Admiral Hina, I've found these two pictures at the destroyed outpost along with a note." Stated the marine while saluting as she handed over three pieces of paper to Hina.

'A Mink and an incredibly beautiful woman.' Thought Hina with a frown as she eyed Diddy, who was baring his fangs while Freyja was seductively licking her lips.

I didn't know exactly what these pictures represented, but I had a feeling the note would clear my confusion, and it indeed did.

~Hey, it's me, Diddy, the one who isn't a woman; I just want to let you know that I and Freyja, the woman, are the ones responsible for this destruction and all the killing. By the time you're reading this, we've long since set sail; our next destination is probably the closest island, whatever that is, so hopefully, I'll see you there or not. Just make sure to send someone powerful after me; I want an enjoyable battle before I kill them, after all.

–Sincerely, Diddy D. Kong~
