Looking at the incoming horde of marines with their swords and other various weapons swinging about, I merely grinned as I brandished my staff before violently swinging it toward the first wave of marines; the instant my staff made contact with their bodies, I heard nothing but crunching as they were lifted off the ground and flung overboard, though they were dead before they even reached the water.

Sensing a few people attacking me from behind, I used tekkai, causing their swords and axes to practically bounce off my skin as I turned around while swinging my staff, hitting several marines into other approaching marines, yet the horde of enemies quickly filled their spots as they lunged toward me from all angles. Seeing the numerous amount of marines nearing me with their weapons held high, I smirked and raised my staff before slamming onto the deck of the ship, creating a small hole in the ground, yet my actions caused the lunging marines to get hit with numerous wooden shrapnel.

Quickly retracting my staff while the marines were still in the air lunging toward me, I swiftly stabbed them all in quick session, creating a deep imprint in their abdomen as I flung them into the horde of marines; however, my actions did little to stop the sea of marines that charge toward me.

'Hehe; this is what I've been craving! There is nothing more chaotic than battle!' Thought Diddy with a feral grin as he crouched while gripping his staff before lunging into the sea of marines, carving a path of killing.

While amongst the seemingly infinite marines, with every single swing of my staff, I injured several while killing numerous more; halfway through my fun, I noticed the other ship had approached the boat I was currently on, and by placing a long plank between the two ships, they began boarding mine as tens of marines piled onto the ship every few seconds.

"Men, don't be fooled!! He may look tough and have killed many of our brothers and sisters, but ultimately, he is only one man; his stamina isn't infinite!!" Yelled a higher-ranking marine officer with a stern expression while pointing his sword toward Diddy from the upper deck, overlooking the battle; his words significantly raised the morale as the marines once again charged toward Diddy.

"Hahaha!!" Exclaimed Diddy with his signature chaotic laugh, amused by the man's words, as he stood on the deck littered with numerous marine corpses.

Seeing the second horde of marines charge toward me, I couldn't help but smile as I once again lunged into the sea of marines while brandishing my staff.

"P-Please S-Spare m-m-" Said a terrified marine as he dropped his weapon and ran away, though the moment he turned around, a whooshing noise was heard, and the next instance, his headless body collapsed to the ground.

Having killed the final marine, I retracted my staff and approached the captain of this ship, who was nervously looking at me from the upper deck as I stepped over piles of corpses that littered the deck; in fact, there were so many corpses I couldn't even see the deck, which is saying something since I'm confident most of the marines were sent overboard after receiving my attacks.

Jumping up to the upper deck, I landed on the railing, dyeing it red from the crimson blood that dripped from my body as I looked the captain of the ship in the eye, causing him to flinch as he took a step back from sensing my unruly killing intent that had grown from the massacre I had just committed.

"W-What do y-you want, y-you monster!" Yelled the profusely sweating marine officer as he attempted to gather his courage, though one look from diddy dispelled any he had.

"Hehe, no need to be so afraid; as much as I would like to, I won't kill you; after all, I need someone to recount my feats. Besides, that little massacre had satisfied me. For now." Replied Diddy with a feral grin while eyeing the man, though his words had greatly relieved him.

Just as I was about to ask the man a question, I suddenly sensed someone, a relatively powerful person, appear behind me, and as I had just exited from a battle, I was still jumpy, so to speak, so with incredible swift and agile movements, I powerfully pushed off the railing, causing it to break, as I lunged toward the person while swinging my staff.

Stolen novel; please report.

Yet, just before my staff collided with them, the person outstretched their hand and grabbed my staff, causing a small gust of wind as they stopped it just a foot away from hitting their face.

"Oh, it's you, Freyja; you should know how I am when in battle; next time, announce your presence." Said Diddy with a feral grin that calmed down when he realized who he had attacked.

"Yes, yes, I know. Now can you retract your staff?" Replied Freyja lightly while holding Diddy's staff with one hand that had transformed into her monster form.

Clicking my tongue, I retracted my staff and landed back on the upper deck while Freyja landed beside me, causing the marine officer to nearly run toward her, though before she could deprive the man of his vitality, I stopped her.

"Leave him be; we need someone to inform the Marines about what we've done here; we can't do that if everyone is dead." Said Diddy as he approached the man and slapped him while holding back his strength, snapping the man out of the trance Freyja's appearance had put him into.

"I know; don't need to tell me twice." Remarked Freyja as she reined in her bewitching abilities to the best of her control.

"A-An incredibly gorgeous woman, a-and a Mink! Y-You two, y-you're the ones R-Rear Admiral Hina informed us about; y-you're from Karate Island!" Yelled the man in shock and terror as his gaze constantly shifted between Freyja and Diddy.

"Hehe; hear that, Freyja? They've already got us in their sights, and to think they would send a Rear Admiral, the fourth highest ranking marine, as reinforcements; Karate Island must've had some decent connections to the WG." Remarked Diddy with a smirk at the man's words, yet not once did he feel worried; in fact, it was the opposite; his heart started to pound in eagerness from confronting a rear admiral.

"Yes, that is quite surprising; I had expected they would send a Commodore, along with a few Captains at most; then again, neither of us knows the inner workings of the Marines, so it's not like we could've expected it." Said Freyja with a nod as she folded her arms and leaned against the railing.

"Ensign Clove, do you read me!? I repeat, Ensign Clove, do you read me!? This is Captain Leaf!" Exclaimed an urgent voice that originated from the man's marine jacket.

"Don't look at me. Aren't you supposed to pick it up? He's your superior, after all." Said Diddy with a slight smirk as he looked at the man, who goes by Clove, though cause he was covered in blood, he looked more frightening than usual.

"T-This is Ensign Clove; I hear you loud and clear, Captain Leaf." Replied Clove hesitantly as he reached into his jacket and grabbed a transponder snail, which, amusingly, had a little marine hat on its two eyes.

"Haa, that's good; I had watched everything that had transpired from the outpost, so I presume the pirates have been defeated?" Asked the voice coming from the transponder snail relatively calm, though Clove didn't respond right away as he had glanced at the lower deck, which was filled with corpses.

"Ensign Clove, is everything all right? Why aren't you responding?" Added the man with a slightly worried voice, though before Clove could respond, Diddy snatched the transponder snail from his hands.

"To answer your question Captain Leaf, no, everything is not alright; my first mate and I have just slaughtered your entire fighting force, and you're next!" Stated Diddy with a smirk as he approached Freyja, leaving Clove.

"W-Who is this!? State your name right now!" Yelled Leaf commandingly in anger, though Diddy merely chuckled.

"We're the Frenzy Pirates; I'm Captain Diddy, and this is my Vice-Captain, Freyja; introduce yourself." Replied Diddy as he held the transponder snail to Freyja, though she just glanced at it before ignoring him.

"Welp, never mind; my first-mate clearly doesn't wish to be a little fun, but we've just set sail from Karate Island, and now we're here." Added Diddy with a slight smirk as he looked at the Transponder snail's surprised reaction.

"Karate Island; you must be the ones Rear Admiral Hina had warned us about; A Mink and an Incredibly beautiful woman." Stated Lead rather solemnly, and before he could speak, Diddy interrupted him.

"Haha, yep, that's us; now don't worry so much; I was just taking a little break from killing hundreds of marines; we're about to step foot onto Baterilla. When we do, I'll be taking your life, along with everyone else life on that island; prepare." Declared Diddy with a vicious grin as he squeezed the transponder snail until it exploded in his hands.

Throwing the bits of the snail into the sea, I smirked as I approached Clove and grabbed him by his collar as I lifted him into the air, dismissing his pathetic attempts at stopping me. Walking toward the ship's edge, I spotted our small boat nearby and threw the man toward our ship.

"C'mon, Freyja." Said Diddy as he jumped into the air and propelled himself toward his boat while Freya sprouted large black leathery wings from her back, following behind Diddy.

Landing on the boat, I heard Clove screaming as he was about to collide with our ship, but just before he did, Freyja appeared and caught him, gently setting him down while she landed beside me.

"Can you not throw someone at our ship next time? He would've damaged the deck." Said Freyja with a frown while eyeing Diddy though he merely laughed in response.
