"Fine, but after that, we will cause some chaos!" Said Diddy with a grin as he approached Trenza and grabbed her by the waist before leaping into the air.
"Fuck me, not this again!" Muttered Trenza with an ugly expression as she tightly wrapped her arms and legs around Diddy, just in time as he kicked the air, propelling them through the sky.
Since I didn't know the location of any other city, I just headed back to the town we were previously at, arriving within a matter of minutes as we weren't far away; it would've been quicker, but I couldn't be going too fast while carrying along Trenza, or she would fall off.
Once we arrived at the city, I noticed there seemed to be an influx of marines patrolling the streets, and if I had to guess, it would be because of Trenza and I; though their presence didn't stop me, and with a kick we headed straight for the ground. However, unlike last time, I didn't feel like dealing with a sickly Trenza, so I was smart enough to slow my descent before we landed on the ground, doing so right in the middle of the street, causing the two of us to quickly get surrounded by nearby marines as they pointed their rifles at us.
"It's the Frenzy pirates!"
"You're surrounded; get on the ground right now!"
"Be ready to open fire!"
"Are we on the ground yet?" Asked Trenza with closed eyes while tightly hugging Diddy, causing her to look like a backpack.
"Yes, do you not hear the Marines yelling at us? Now, get off of me!" Stated Diddy while his eye twitched in annoyance as he grabbed Trenza by the nape and forcefully pulled her off his body before setting her on the ground.
"Ugh, I feel so uncomfortable being stared at by so many people." Said Trenza awkwardly while frowning as she used her arms to conceal her upper body to the best of her ability, though that didn't prevent men from occasionally glancing at her with perverted eyes.
"Then next time, don't copy Freyja's fashion advice and wear proper clothes." Mentioned Diddy with a smirk as he bared his fangs and brandished his claws at the marines, which only increased in number as time passed.
"Tch, that's rich coming from the person who literally ripped my blouse off of my body!" Yelled Trenza angrily as she attempted to smack Diddy, though, of course, he easily dodged it.
Chuckling, I was about to retaliate, but it seemed like the Marines had finally waited long enough as they started opening fire almost instantly after Trenza attempted to slap me. Using tekkai, the bullets bounced right off the skin, which was hidden underneath my golden brown fur; I was also forced to protect Trenza since she didn't have a place to hide amidst the gunfire.
"Hehe, go get a shirt, Trenza; while you're doing that, I'll enjoy myself a little. I need Mini and Lindbergh to know I'm still alive." Said Diddy with a feral grin as he pounced toward the closest marine the moment there was a respite of gunfire.
Latching onto the marine, I ripped his body to shreds with my nails before leaping toward the closest one and doing the same, causing the marine's focus to shift to me while Trenza used that chance to escape the circle of marines through the gap I had just made, which allowed me to really enjoy myself.
"Hehe, I suppose this isn't bad for a little warm-up." Said Diddy with a smirk as he slashed his nails through the third victim's neck, killing him in one motion before dashing toward the next marine on all fours, which allowed for greater agility on the ground.
There weren't many marines, so killing them was easy and quick, though it only ended up spurring my desire to fight as I dashed through the streets while looking for more marines, specifically their outpost, along with any foolish civilian that wished to fight me, which unfortunately amounted to zero.
Eventually, after navigating through the streets, leaving a trail of dead marines behind me, I finally found their outpost, and the instant I did, I was being assaulted with intense gunfire; there was even some cannon fire, which did slightly catch me off guard as this was the middle of the city, but I didn't dwell on it for long. With tekkai, there was no need to dodge the bullets, and cannons were easy to evade, so without much difficulty, I neared the front doors of the outpost, which were iron double doors sealed off; then again, that wasn't enough to stop me, slow me down, yes, but not stop me.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
'Heh, then again, it's not like it'll even slow me down for long.' Mused Diddy with a grin as lightning converged around his sharp claws before he stabbed them into the thick iron doors, melting right through the iron.
Melting through the iron, I quickly made a hole big enough for me to enter, and just when I was about to push the block of iron out of the way and enter, I heard voices coming from inside, causing me to smirk as I pushed the iron block inside and hid behind the door; the instant I did so, an onslaught of gun and cannon fire attacked where I would've been standing at, this continued for a solid thirty seconds.
"HOLD YOUR FIRE!" Yelled the highest-ranking marine officer of this outpost, his words causing everyone to stop firing as they stared at the heavily damaged iron doors.
"D-Did we get him?" Muttered a marine nervously while poking his head above the numerous barricades, only to see a golden blur enter through the hole, causing him to fire accidentally out of fear.
"What did I just say!? Hold your fire solider!" Yelled the commander marine officer angrily as he pointed at the man.
"S-Sorry, I-I thought I saw something enter, must've be-" Said the marine apologetically as he turned to look at the commander marine officer, though the instant he did so, he felt a cold sensation from his neck.
"Blood?" Muttered the marine as his vision became blurry, and the last thing he saw was a golden brown Mink effortlessly killing his comrades.
"H-HE'S INSIDE! FIRE!" Yelled the commander officer as he equipped a nearby rifle and started firing, not even caring about accidentally shooting his men.
Within a minute, I killed every marine in the hallway leading to the entrance; the only one alive right now was the commanding officer, as he continued shooting at me despite the bullets bouncing off my body. Nearing him, I swatted his rifle away and grabbed him by the neck, lifting him into the air and choking him in the process.
"Y-You may h-have defeated u-us today, p-pirate, b-but justice w-will always p-prevail!" Said the man as he attempted to escape Diddy's grasp, though his words only annoyed him, ending up with his suffering being cut short.
"Tsk, justice this, justice that; it's is such a stupid and fickle concept. Don't they know justice is defined by the strongest? Which means I'll soon be the one deciding what justice will and won't be." Remarked Diddy with a feral grin as he threw the dead man into the pile of corpses behind him.
As I was done with most, if not all, of the marines in this city, I exited the outpost, and the first thing I did was point toward the nearest building before shooting it with a bolt of lightning, catching it on fire; I did that to numerous other buildings I walked past.
'The downsides to having an entire city constructed of wooden buildings; cheap and easy to make, but easy to burn to the ground.' Thought Diddy with a smirk as he noticed several people exit the buildings he set on fire, trying to quell the growing fire, though their attempts proved to be unsuccessful.
I made sure to set a few more buildings on fire just for good assurance before I started dashing through the city, looking for Trenza as I wasn't keen on having her die from burning or smoke inhalation. Eventually, I did find her; I just needed to find the occasional marine with a bullet hole in the forehead, which led me to a clothing store on the complete other side of the city.
"Yo, Trenza, time to leave; I set the city on fire, so unless you wish to die from smoke inhalation, let's get going." Remarked Diddy calmly as he entered the clothing store and followed Trenza's scent, leading him to a changing room, which he barged into.
"Gahh! W-What the hell, Captain! Don't you believe in privacy!?" Yelled Trenza in anger and embarrassment as she quickly covered her nude body with clothes.
"Yeah, my privacy; I don't care about anyone else's. Also, why the hell are you naked? Weren't you just getting a new shirt?" Replied Diddy with a raised eyebrow as he glanced at the numerous different clothes lying at her feet.
"W-Well, I initially intended to just get a new shirt, but when I saw all the different clothes, I kind of got side-tracked." Muttered Trenza shyly as she avoided Diddy's eyes.
"Tch, whatever, I don't really care; just hurry up. I've set the city on fire, so you better take what you want and leave everything to burn." Said Diddy as he shook his head and closed the door behind him as he patiently waited outside, something quite rare for him.
Thankfully, it seemed like knowing the city was on fire had significantly sped Trenza along, as it didn't even take five minutes before she was out of the changing room, which was much faster than I anticipated, and if it weren't for the fire, I probably would've been waiting for several hours, not like I would've actually waited that long.
"Alright, Captain; I'm ready, let's get going!" Said Trenza eagerly while holding several bags full of clothes, a sight which caused Diddy's expression to constantly twitch.
