Aqua: Mermaid Princess of Atlantis
Chapter 6 - Tiger Shark Pirates Part 2 - Thief Abyss Pit
Written By: StarMermaid91
Based on the characters “One Piece” created and owned by:
Eiichiro Oda
A little far duo east from the Kingdom of Atlantis, Coral, Chel, and two axolotl brothers were swimming above the canyons. On the sea floor below the canyon’s surface, there are coral reefs that protect the prey from the predators.
“Hey, Chel… What kind of carnivores lived in these canyons?” Coral asked.
“In the Death Canyons, there are tiger sharks and leopard seals lurking around the corner of the walls. So stay alert.” Azure said.
“Unfortunately, they both are not tagging along because they are territorial and aggressive predators. Still, we’d better stay high from the canyons without getting spotted by them.” Gamboge said.
Suddenly Chel’s fins glows pink; she’s sensing a danger approaching, and said. “I think they sense our presence.”
♫One Piece Movie 7 OST - Karakuri Defense System, Deploy!♫
She looked down, and gasped. “And there are the tiger sharks! A pack of them!”
As she shouted, there were packs of hungry tiger sharks, and they were pleased to see their dinner, and they were served and swam towards them.
“Guys… I think we’re their dinner.” Coral said nervously.
“Follow me!” Chel shouted and swam down to the gorge, as Coral, Azure and Gamboge followed her while the pack of tiger sharks hunted them down.
They swam through the gorge as they fled from the pack of the tiger sharks who were steadily catching up.
“Wait a minute, I thought the tiger sharks are solitary, mostly nocturnal hunters!” Coral corrected.
“Yes, but here in the New World, their hunting behaviors are different from usual ones!” Chel said.
“Hey, sis! Into the small hole!” Azure shouted.
“Come on! In here!” Chel shouted as she and the other axolotls went inside the hole of the cave before the tiger sharks stopped chasing them, before they split up.
Above the gorge, Raki sighs in relief. “Phew, they made it. I’m glad Coral is okay.”
But behind him, there are two leopard seals who snarl at the penguin who slowly turned around, and gasped.
“Leopard seals… Penguins’ worst nightmare.” Raki gasped, frightened, as the leopard seals opened their mouths wide.
“AAAAAAH!!” Raki screamed before he swam off to the north and two leopard seals chased after him while Raki shouted. “I’M GONNA DIE!! I-AM-GONNA-DIE!!!”
Meanwhile at the small cave, the tiger sharks keep circling around the small cave and waiting until their prey comes out.
“They’re circling around, and waiting until we come out of the cave.” Gamboge said.
“Those sharks are faster than all of us. There has to be a way to slow them down.” Azure said.
“You guys swim ahead! I’ll make a rock slide for those scavengers!” Coral said after she got an idea and looked at her body at the same time.
“How can a small axolotl like you can cause a rock slide?” Gamboge asked.
“Wait, I think Coral got an idea!” Chel said as Coral nodded. “She can handle this one, so let's put our trust in her!”
“Okay!” Gamboge and Azure nodded.
♫Finding - Gull Chase (0:21)♫
“All right! Go, now!” Coral shouted as Chel, Gamboge and Azure swam out of the cave.
As they do, the tiger sharks spotted them and chased after them again. Coral comes out of the cave, and hides the coral reef where the sharks can’t go near them.
When she passes under the axolotls, Coral takes a deep breath, and her body expands and grows into the size of a basketball again. And then she floats faster and higher and comes through the coral reef which surprises Chel and her brothers.
As Coral is getting high enough, she opens her mouth and FWOOOOOOOOSH, she expels the air and flies backwards rapidly as she hits the rock walls, and bounces into the other side while deflating slowly.
After she bounces rapidly, the rocks start to fall off the walls and cause an avalanche of rocks, and the tiger sharks halt before turning around if they don’t want to get flatten.
And just in time, Chel, Gamboge and Azure swam out of the gorge, and stopped swimming.
“Phew! Looks like that pink axolotl’s idea really worked!” Azure said.
“You know, I didn’t expect to see her puff up like a pufferfish. What do you think, Chel?” Gamboge asked as he turned to Chel who was amazed by Coral’s ability to inflate.
“Wow… That was amazing…!” Chel muttered, amazed and gasped when she saw Coral fall rapidly towards her while deflating in halfway.
“WOAH!! I OVERDID IT!!” Coral screamed before she was caught by Chel in her arms and is now back to her normal state.
“Are you okay?” Chel asked.
“Yeah… I can’t believe I did this again…!” Coral asked while being dizzy.
“How under the sea did you become like this?” Chel asked as Coral’s eyes returned to normal.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - Hungry Luffy (2:11)♫
Coral looked at Chel’s arms and then at her face, and then she yelped and leaped off her arms. “WHOA! MECHOKKU!”
“You don’t have to catch me on your-” Coral cried embarrassed while blushing and flailing her arms.
“Whatever you did, that was amazing!” Chel exclaimed, amazed after she cut her off and paced forwards at Coral. “Please, show me how to do that! C’mon, c’mon!”
“Eh? You mean when I was inflating like that?” Coral gasped, then blushed while becoming shy. “Well, if I can put it to this, I’m actually getting stung by a pufferfish, and then…”
“Oh? Did the poison kill you?” Chel asked.
“Uh, no… I think it's poison somehow didn’t kill me, and it mutates me into a puffer axolotl.” Coral explained.
“It did?” Chel asked.
“Wow, you’re lucky to be alive, Coral. I think the poison from that puffer fish is a rare specimen when only creatures get stung by it. Once it stung you, the poison merges within your DNA and cells.” Azure said.
“So… I can somehow control my ability to inflate and deflate? I guess I need to exercise to control myself when I deflate rapidly.” Coral asked, then blushed embarrassed.
“I think all you need is to practice. Well, let’s go find that puffer fish and let it sting me!” Coral demanded.
“Unfortunately, big sis, that puffer fish is an endangered specimen, so we’d better just leave it alone.” Azure said.
“Wait, since when you're a big fan of puffy stuff?” Coral asked.
“Oh, you shall soon find out when I have that ability too.” Chel said as Coral’s getting drowsy.
“Can we take a break…?” Coral yawned. “All of that swimming, inflating and flying around while I’m deflating makes me tired.”
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - Gold and Oden (1:38)♫
“Yeah, you’re right. I think we need to find another cavern to seek some shelter, just in case when the other predators roam around here.” Chel sighed.
“Speaking of which, sis, I found it! Over there. And something glowing within it!” Gamboge called as she pointed at the distant cavern while it’s glowing weakly.
“Then let’s call a break for now.” Chel said before Coral slowly sinks into her arms which makes the black-skinned axolotl blushes.
“Chel… Do you mind if you carry me?” Coral whispered, gently.
“Oh, sure I do.” Chel said as she gently carried Coral like a bridal style.
Coral looked it up at Chel who gently carried her and saw her lovely smile and seductive eyes, before she boldly nuzzled her cheek and purrs.
Chel sighed while blushing and nuzzled her back before she swam off to the cavern.
“You’re so cute, Coral…” Chel whispered.

Meanwhile, Raki is still chased by two leopard seals. He swam out of the forest of sea kelps and screamed. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!”
He then slides on the seafloor of sand to create a cloud of sand dust that blinds the leopard seals. Well, only temporary; the leopard seals swam up high and got the penguin in their sight.
“I’M GONNA DIE!! I-AM-GONNA-DIE!!!” Raki shouted as he swam downwards into the small gorge and kept swimming forward.
“Oh, I can't believe I have such bad luck! Princess Aqua’s counting on me to keep Coral out of trouble, but I already got myself in trouble!!” Raki shouted.
Raki swam ahead to the ruins of the underwater temple, through inside and outside until he’s now at the dead end!
“It’s a dead end!” Raki shouted as he turned around and saw two leopard seals paced forward, but slowly and lick their lips before they opened their mouths.
“This is it? Is my life over?” Raki asked before the two leopard seals opened their mouths and swam towards him.
And then Raki let out a loud shout. “HELP ME!!!” His voice seemed to reverberate throughout the ocean. And then all of a sudden…
A female killer whale came out of the blue, grabbed the first leopard seal with her mouth and dragged it away. And then the second leopard seal was killed by a male killer whale who grabbed it with his teeth.
Raki, who closes eye and thought he’s going to die, opened one of his eyes and saw two orcas already killed two leopard seals, and ate them.
♫One Piece Movie 4 - You're Alive!♫
“Wow… Did I call the killer whales for help?” Raki thoughts in shock, as he saw two killer whales are slowly approaching me. “And they… saved me.”
The female killer whale makes a gentle clicking sound to let him know that they’re not going to eat him, instead they protect him whenever he calls.
Raki pats the female orca’s head before the killer whales swim off.
“Oh… I guess I've swum too far to the north… Now how am I going to find Coral? I think I’d better go back to Atlantis, and start all over to swim due east.” Raki said as he swam off to Atlantis.
♫One Piece Movie 9 - The Doctor Living in the Castle♫
By now, as they’re inside the other cavern, Chel gently puts Coral on the rock while the pink axolotl’s sleeping.
“Man, is it just me or this pink axolotl is in the mood to be so cozy when she’s in your arms, sis?” Azure said.
“Funny, I was thinking the same way too. But she has such an interesting ability to expand like a pufferfish.” Chel said as Coral’s sleeping and blushing.
“Oh… She’s very cute, isn’t she?” Chel sighed enamored.
“Really? And I thought the other male axolotls find you so… attractive and… genuinely infatuated.” Gamboge said.
“Yeah, but I’m not interested in them. It’s just… I find this axolotl so lovely, even though she's a female.” Chel replied as Coral slowly rolled on her side.
Chel smiles gently and rubs Coral’s forehead. “I wish I had that ability too…”
Then she saw a faint light in the cavern, and she followed it.
“Watch over her for me.” Chel said as her brothers nodded as they watched her sister swim off.
As Chel swam through the hole in the floor, she saw a large space with a glowing crystal while gasping and looking on, amazed.
That large space was big as a whole cave, only double times bigger than that. Then she swam slowly towards the crystal and looked at it.
“Hmm… I wonder what this crystal is.” Chel said as she paced slowly towards the crystal.
It still glows while the mysterious powers surge within it. She wonders if it may have the power to make her puffy just like Coral does.
Carefully, Chel put both of her palms on the crystal. Once she does, the crystal starts to make a hum sound and then slowly merges within her body, and then to her cells and DNA.
It doesn’t hurt her, in fact it feels so relaxed. And after the crystal gives her a new energy, its glow fading which makes the whole room darker. Luckily Chel’s pink fins glow which illuminates a little around the dark place.
“Okay… I wonder if it really worked or not…” Chel sighed before she started to inhale.
♫One Piece Movie 3 - Chopper is Crowned King!♫
As she did, her body started to puff up like a pufferfish. Her body keeps inflating until she is as big as a basketball and stops inhaling.
Chel was stunned that her body actually inflates when she inhales, and then she becomes happy that she has the ability just like Coral.
“Hahaha! That’s awesome! It really worked!” Chel shouted overjoyed.
And then she let the air out of her body, and she didn’t fly backward. She somehow controlled herself when she’s deflating.
Satisfied, Chel swam through the hole and met up with her brothers, and then looked at Coral who’s still sleeping.
“So, how's it going?” Azure asked.
“Pretty good. And I’ve got an ability to inflate myself!” Chel giggled.
“Really? Did you get stung by a pufferfish too?” Gamboge asked.
“No… I somehow absorb the mysterious powers from the crystal, and it grants me an ability to inflate with my will.” Chel replied.
“Really?! No wonder why we heard you laugh.” Azure said, amazed.
“Yeah… And… There’s something I need to talk about with Coral… Only both of us. So, will you, my brothers, stay here until we get back?” Chel asked.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 3 - After Eating, Let’s Go to the Grand Line! (0:00 to 1:13)♫
“Hmm, okay. We’ll rest for a while until we’re ready to move on.” Azure said as Chel smiles at her brother, then paces slowly towards Coral, and rubs her arm gently.
“Coral, wake up.” Chel said as she rubs her arm again, and Coral slowly opened her eyes and looked at her.
“Is break time over?” Coral asked.
“Not yet, but there’s something I would like to tell you.” Chel said as Coral sits up.
“What is it?” Coral asked.
“Let’s swim outside.” Chel said as she and Coral slowly swam outside the cavern, and went up to the top of it.
Then they sat down, and looked at the afternoon’s sun reflection.
“It’s quite a day, isn’t it?” Chel started.
“Yeah… I can't believe I just started my own adventure without Aqua.” Coral sighed, sadly.
“Is she your friend?” Chel asked.
“Yes, we were best friends when we were kids. Nothing comes between our friendship.” Coral said proudly, then looked down in shame. “But then… I just snapped at her because I’m getting frustrated about the pirates paying with fake gemstones.”
“I see, and you want to prove to Aqua that you’re not just her pet. You really want to become a brave adventurer just like me.” Chel said.
“Really? You were? Is it because of the vast sea?” Coral asked.
“Not just in the sea, but in the sky.” Chel replied.
“The sky?” Coral asked.
“Yes… I remember that day when I was a younger axolotl.” Chel said.
FLASHBACK
15 years ago…
On that day, when Chel is 9 years old, she’s with her mother, father and brothers, and they’re taking naps under the shades below the palm trees.
“While we’re taking a nap on the small island, we saw a couple of seagulls who were arguing about their food. My father always loves to ride one of them. So I decided to come with him and then the seagulls take us to the sky.” Chel narrated.
As she explained, Chel and her father were flying in the sky while riding on the human-sized seagull. She looked at her father who looked carefree while looking at the view of the ocean.
“See this, Chel? One day, if any of the marine and mythical creatures have the ability to fly in the sky, they can experience their freedom and travel around the world.” Che’s father said.
“Really? Awesome…!” Chel exclaimed, amazed.
FLASHBACK ENDED
“That is why maybe someday, if one of us, or even Aqua, could have that ability to fly in the sky and explore above the ocean.” Chel said.
“Wow… What an amazing story… So that is why you really want to have that ability to puff up like a balloon, right?” Coral gasped, amazed.
“Actually… I have it now.” Chel said as she slowly lifts off the cavern’s top and hovers in front of Chel.
♫Sonic Unleashed - Cutscene - The First Night (0:18 to 0:42)♫
Then once again, Chel inhaled a lot of water, and her body started to expand which surprised Coral, and then she stopped inflating into the size of a basketball.
“Mechokku!” Coral gasped, surprised. “Chel, you… YOU-?!”
“Yup, I absorb the powers from the glowing crystal in the mini trench, and it grants me an ability to inflate with my will just like you.” Chel said, and then she let the water out of her body, and she didn’t fly backward.
“Awesome! Now you and I have the same ability! That’s so cool!” Coral exclaimed, amazed.
“Yeah. Even though we both inhale a lot of water, there’s no telling how our bodies become so light. Maybe because the puffer fish's poison and the mysterious crystal’s powers shift our weight.” Chel said.
“Well, it doesn’t matter! Just wait when Aqua sees me like this, it will blow her mind!” Coral laughed as Chel sits down. “Still, how much farther we have to go?”
“If we keep up our pace, we should reach the edge of Thief Abyss Pit by tonight.” Chel said.
“Tonight? Aqua is getting worried if I was gone too long… But… There’s no way to get back without freeing your master, right?” Coral asked as Chel nodded.
“That is why we should take a break before we continue our mission.” Chel said.
“Okay.” Coral said.
30 minutes later…
♫Dragon Ball Z Battle of Gods - Beerus's Shadow Draws Near (Vegeta's Unease)♫
Raki has already left the deep gorge with tiger sharks. And he couldn't stop thinking about what happened when he called the killer whales for help.
“I still can’t believe I actually called the orcas with my voice.” Raki said. “Even after they saved me from the leopard seals.”
“Maybe either I have a powerful voice to call for help or I have the power to summon the whales.” Raki wondered before he saw the axolotls are on their move, and they almost arrived at the Thief Abyss Pit.
“Still far behind, but I can still catch them up.” Raki said as she swam forwards.
♫The Land Before Time - The Rescue / Discovery of the Great Valley (0:00 to 0:31)♫
By now, Coral, Chel, Azure and Gamboge have arrived at the edge of the Thief Abyss Pit.
“This is it. This is where the Tiger Shark Pirates live down there.” Azure said.
“And Lord Kiros, too.” Gamboge added.
“Wow… there's no bottom of this great abyss.” Coral gasped, silently.
“None of the Atlanteans knows where the pirates came from, until now.” Chel said.
“Great! Now I will prove to Aqua that I’ve discovered their hideout, and I am not a pet anymore.” Coral said, proudly.
Behind the rock, Raki heard what Coral said.
“Oh, man… Coral is getting too close to that hideout. I hope nothing bad happened to her now.” Raki whispered, worriedly.
“Although… It’s scary.” Coral whimpered as she held Chel’s torso.
“Yeah, it's creepy down there, but it's the only way.” Chel said, before she turned to her brothers. “You boys stay here. Coral and I are going ahead.”
“Okay, sis. But be careful.” Azure said.
“Who knows when the giant whirlpool trapped you?” Gamboge asked.
“A WHIRLPOOL?!” Coral gasped.
“Oh, don’t worry about it. We’ll be careful this time.” Chel said before she and Coral descended into the deep pit.
♫The Lion King (1994) - Elephant Graveyard (Score) (0:39 to 1:00)♫
As they’re going deeper, Coral can feel it’s getting colder and freezing.
“Brrrr…! It's cold down here.” Coral whimpered.
“Yeah, the further we go deeper, the colder the currents get.” Chel said.
Then Coral saw the fake gemstone necklace which stuck one of the coral reefs and swam down there.
“Wait, where are you going?” Chel asks as Coral gets closer to the gemstone and tries to get loose from the coral, but it’s stuck.
“I can make those pirates keep their fake gemstones for themselves! So, I’m going to take it back to them.” Coral grunts as she tries to pull the gemstone necklace.
♫Pokémon the Movie 20 I Choose You! OST- Spearow Attack♫
Suddenly a giant whirlpool formed up in the abyss and dragged Chel downward.
“AAAAAAH!” Chel screamed as Coral grabs her tail with her own.
“I GOT YOU!!” Coral shouted as she held Chel as she could while holding the necklace.
“CORAL!” Chel shouted. “DON’T LET GO!!”
“BIG SISTER!!” Azure and Gamboge shouted as Raki swam to the edge.
“AAAH! CORAL!! HANG IN THERE!!” Raki shouted.
Coral looked up and saw Raki at the edge, and called desperately. “RAKI!! GET HELP!! GET AQUA!!!”
After Coral called, her hands slipped off the necklace and she and Chel dragged into the depths below, while Coral screamed in terror.
“CORAAAAAAL!!” Raki shouted in horror.
Then he got up and swam off to heading ahead to Atlantis and shouted. “Coral is in trouble now! I must tell Princess Aqua about this!”
Azure and Gamboge catch up with him, too.
“We’re coming, too! Our sister, Chel, is down there with Coral!” Azure said.
“Chel, huh? Then let’s hurry!” Raki said as two axolotl brothers nodded and swam to Atlantis as fast as they could.
Meanwhile at Atlantis Castle’s balcony, Aqua looked worried and noticed it’s almost midnight, and Coral hasn’t come back yet, or so she thinks. Ryujin stood beside his daughter.
“Oh, where is Coral? It's not like her to stay out this late.” Aqua asked worriedly.
“You’re right, and that makes me worried, too. It's time we went looking for her.” Ryujin said as he put his hand on her shoulder.
“Oh, if anything happens to that little axolotl, I'll never forgive myself.” Aqua said, worriedly, while having tears in her eyes.
♫One Piece Movie 6 OST - Sinking…♫
“KING!! PRINCESS!!” The voices from Raki, with Azure and Gamboge, who were faster towards Aqua and Ryujin.
“Raki! Did something happen to Coral?” Aqua asked as Raki tearfully hugged her head.
“I TRIED TO SAVE HER, PRINCESS!!! But I was too late! The whirlpool dragged her and Chel into the depths below!” Raki cried.
“Whirlpool? Where?” Ryujin asked.
“In the Thief Abyss Pit, a far duo east of Atlantis!” Azure announced.
“Far duo east? Then that means they found the Tiger Shark Pirates’ hideout! Aqua, time to spring into action!” Ryujin said as Aqua nodded.
“You two! Take us there as fast as you can!” Aqua commands.
“Yes, Princess Aqua!” Azure and Gamboge nodded and saluted, and swam ahead, while Aqua, Ryujin and Raki followed them.
“ATHENA, GATHER ALL SOLDIERS AS YOU CAN! THEY FOUND THE HIDEOUT!!” Ryujin shouted loudly.
Inside the castle, Athena heard his voice and nodded, and said. ”As you wish, my love.”
Then Athena swam out to gather all the soldiers who were patrolling around the whole kingdom.
25 minutes earlier…
♫One Piece Movie 6 OST - Thoughts Don't Reach Far Enough (1:10 to 2:20)♫
Coral and Chel are still dragged further into the pit, until they see a large sand worm-like creature is making the whirlpool to be able to feast.
“AAAH! IT’S GONNA EAT US!!” Coral screamed.
“Coral! Time to inflate!” Chel shouted as Coral nodded.
They both inhale quickly, and their bodies inflate rapidly, and then they release the water and fly backwards while deflating while coming out of the whirlpool.
After they hit the seafloor, the giant creature closes its mouth and disappears beneath the sand.
“What the hell was that thing?!” Coral cried.
“That’s a giant sea sand worm. It’s inhaling to create a massive funnel of the whirlpool to feed lots of unfortunate fishes and other aquatic species.” Chel replied. “None of them can possibly swim fast enough to reach the opening between feedings.”
“Phew… it got us into trouble for this. How could've been much worse?” Coral asked.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - To the Grand Line! (2:00 to 3:43)♫
“Well, we ARE the worst.” The voice behind Coral and Chel, who gasped and turned around and saw the gang of Tiger Shark Pirates.
“T-The Tiger Shark Pirates!” Coral cried.
“Well, well, well… Look what the cats dragged in.” A male voice came from behind the pirates who stood aside.
This is the tiger shark Fish-Man who wears a red bandana, two spiked shoulder pads and holds his orange trident, and he’s 48 years old.
This is Lord Kiros.
“One of them is the thief, and the pet of Princess Aqua I’ve heard about. Well, I certainly don’t mind this turn of events. Not at all.” Kiros grinned as he brutally kicked Chel.
“CHEL!!” Coral screamed as she swam to Chel and held her hand.
“As I expected that you two escaped from the jaws of this beast. But you won’t be lucky once we caught you red-handed.” Kiros said.
“What do you want from us, Pit-breath?” Coral snarls.
“Pit-breath? SHAAAHAHAHAHA!” Kiros chuckles grimly. “Well, since you’re Princess Aqua’s cute axolotl, I have an entertaining plan for her and her father, Ryujin.”
“What is it?” Chel asked, as she grimaced while getting up slowly, but grabbed by one of the pirates and lifted her while aimed at her head with his gun.
“No!” Coral cried.
“You’ll be our special guest as a prisoner. If you don’t agree to join us in my coliseum, then this little thief shall be shark bait.” Kiros said.
“No, don’t do it!” Coral shouted.
“The choice is yours; either you'll be with this thief in the coliseum as small gladiators, or you watch her die.” Kiros says coolly.
“I…” Coral started, before hesitated while looking at Chel, and then for some seconds, she looked down. “Fine… I’ll go with her. Just, don’t hurt her.”
“Very wise move.” Kiros grinned before turning to his crew. “Take those small axolotls to the coliseum’s dungeon! We’ll be waiting for the other guests of honor.”
A bit later, in the coliseum’s dungeon, a couple of pirates threw Coral and Chel in a cell.
“Get in there!” One of the pirates said.
“You too!” Another pirate said.
They closed the gate, locked it and laughed.
“Don’t get any dumb ideas about escaping, got it?” The third pirate said as he and the other pirates laughed and walked away. “Not that you could, anyway.”
♫Finding Nemo - Miss Your Dad♫
As Chel gets up, she’s looking around to find a way to escape, but there are no objects to break the walls or the cell bars, then she sighs hopelessly.
“There’s nowhere to escape. We’re stuck here.” Chel sighed.
“All of this happened… because I didn’t listen to Aqua.” Coral sniffed, before breaking in tears and sobbed on her knees.
“Coral…” Chel said as she sat closer to Coral, and hugged her softly.
“Oh, Chel… This is all my fault.” Coral sobbed, while crying on Chel’s shoulder.
“It’s okay… It’s okay… I’m here… There’s still hope. Have faith in Aqua. She will save us.” Chel said.
“Aqua… Please forgive me…” Coral sobbed.
Right now, Aqua, Ryujin and Raki are following Azure and Gamboge to the edge of the Thief Abyss Pit.
“There it is, the Thief Abyss Pit!” Azure shouted.
“Are you sure Coral is down there?” Aqua asked.
“Absolutely! And Chel is with her too!” Gamboge replied.
“Chel?” Aqua asked.
“That’s the black axolotl we’ve met earlier today.” Raki replied.
“Oh, right. That was a good name.” Aqua said.
“If this is the hideout we’re looking for, then we shall find Kuraokami, too.” Ryujin said.
“Who is Kuraokami, father?” Aqua asked.
“Kuraokami, or Kurao for short, is an old friend of mine. And he's been a great warrior of Atlantis since his 20s. He is currently leading his comrades to arrest the pirates and bring them to the Odyssey Kingdom as our justice.” Ryujin replied.
“Unfortunately, he was captured by Kiros and turned him and his comrades to slaves. So that is why I will save him too.” Ryujin finished.
“Understood, we’ll save both Kurao and Coral in the pit. There’s no time to lose.” Aqua said as she and the others descended into the deep pit.
They’ve reached the point where Coral and Chel stopped before they sucked in the whirlpool.
“They were about here where Coral’s trying to pull this gemstone from this coral.” Azure said.
“And did you say the whirlpool dragged them into the darkest pit, Raki?” Ryujin asked.
“Yes, my eyes didn’t deceive me this time!” Raki replied.
“Oh no…” Aqua gasped, before she called. “CORAL! CORAL!! WHERE ARE YOU?!”
But Aqua didn’t hear her respond, and lowered her head sadly.
♫One Piece Strong World - Shiki Abandons Nami ~Luffy Appears~♫
Then they heard a loud whoosh and saw a giant whirlpool formed.
“There it is! This is the same whirlpool that got Coral!” Raki shouted.
“I’m going in!” Aqua shouted, determinedly.
“Me too, Aqua!” Ryujin said.
“I vote for that too! It’s my responsibility!” Raki shouted.
“Hang on tight, dear!” Ryujin said as he grabbed his daughter around her torso.
Then they are swimming into the whirlpool and going down to the depths.
“Shall we, Azure?” Gamboge asked.
“I’m ready when you are, Gamboge!” Azure nodded as they grabbed their hands.
Then they jumped into the whirlpool and shouted. “THE AXOLOTL BROTHERS TO THE RESCUE!!”
The whirlpool pulls in the small creatures as Aqua, Ryujin, Raki, Azure and Gamboge keep swimming downward through the whirlpool!
When they spot a giant aquatic sand worm, Ryujin shoots a beam from his magical trident at it to make it retract long enough for them to get to safety.
“Phew… So that’s where the whirlpool came from.” Aqua sighed.
“It’s a giant sea sand worm…!” Raki gasped, terrified.
“Hope that will retract long enough for a while.” Ryujin said as he looked around the pit. “And looks like we’ve arrived at the pit where the pirates reside.”
“But why are they not getting by that giant sea worm?” Aqua asked.
“That’s a good question. I don’t know. Must be someone who controls it.” Ryujin said.
“And I guess this is the Tiger Shark Pirate crew’s territory.” Aqua guessed.
♫One Piece Movie 5 - Marines Attack the Village♫
“I think you guessed correctly, Princess. Look.” Azure said as he pointed at the pirates, and they’re approaching them while chuckles, grimly.
“Wow, I don’t think they expected us that we’re here!” Aqua cried.
“Coral and Chel's arrival probably made the pirates aware of our presence.” Ryujin said.
“They’re here, and there, and everywhere!!” Raki cried. “360 degrees, all you see is the pirates!! We’re surrounded!!”
“So, you've come, King Ryujin. Do you realize where you are?” The first Tiger Shark Pirate asked as Aqua glares at him.
“This is our territory, so you’d better surrender or prepare to-”
BAM!!
♫One Piece Movie 7 - Straw Hat Pirates, Initiate Counterattack!♫
One punch from Aqua sends the pirate flying. He lands on the ground. The Mermaid Princess swims over and picks him up, then slams the man against a wall.
Ryujin was surprised at first, but then grins because he was impressed by Aqua’s strength.
“I asked you a civil question, pirate!” Aqua growls, extremely serious.
One of the pirate's friends tries to cut the mermaid's head from behind, but Aqua sees him coming. She swung her tail and whips him out, and this effectively wards off any other interlopers.
“The axolotls! You’ve seen them! Where are they?” Aqua questioned, angrily.
“L-L-Lord Kiros! H-H-He got ‘em! B-B-B-But he ordered us to put them into the coliseum’s dungeon!” The pirate stammered, nervously.
“The coliseum? Where is it?!” Aqua questioned again.
“R-R-Right there!” The pirate answered while pointed at the reader board with arrow signs. “We’re using this for dummies.”
“Thanks for the info.” Aqua said as she dropped him to the floor, then turned to her father. “Father, I’m going ahead to the coliseum! You go find Kurao!”
“So we're splitting up in two teams, and finding Kurao and Chel? Sounds like a good idea. And be careful, we don’t know how strong Kiros is.” Ryujin said as Aqua nodded and swam off.
“I’m going with Aqua, Sir!” Raki saluted as he swam to catch up with Aqua.
“Come on, you two!” Ryujin called at Azure and Gamboge. “Let’s go find Kurao!”
Azure and Gamboge nodded as they and Ryujin swam into the opposite direction; they’re heading to the underground prison where Kurao and the slaves are captured.
The pirates stood in front of them to not let go any further.
“Back off! If you try to release Kurao, then we shall cut you into pieces!” Another pirate warned.
“Sorry, pirates,” Ryujin said. “Nothing personal but… you’re in my way!”
ZHEEN!! Ryujin’s pupils expanded, and a sudden burst of Haki came out of him, knocking out some of the pirates who were around him and the axolotl brothers. Then they swam off to the prison.
The Axolotl Brothers could only look on with mouths agape.
“How did he do that?” asked Azure to no one in particular.
“Beats…me…!” stammered Gamboge.
“Aqua… Those pirates look weak enough for you. You can knock ‘em out if you feel like it.” Ryujin thought with a grin.
♫Final Fantasy XV - Stand Your Ground♫
As for Aqua and Raki, they’re still racing through the Tiger Shark Pirates, en route to the coliseum. No sign of pursuers behind her, but other pirates have apparently heard about the appearance of a Mermaid Princess, and are ready to exterminate her. They line up on the cliffs and are ready to open fire.
“Pirates, incoming!” Raki shouted.
“Let’s knock ‘em out!” Aqua shouted as she charged at them.
As they fired at her, Aqua began to lay the smack-down on some more pirates that surrounded her. She whacks them with her tail, and it’s so strong enough to send them flying to the ground.
“Out of my way, pirates!” Aqua roared as she punched another Tiger Shark Pirates in the face. Then she began to swim faster.
“Don’t let her get away!!”
“STOP HER!!”
Out of nowhere, Raki slides on his belly on the ground, and knocks the pirates down.
“Hey, pirates!” Raki said. “You have a long way to go before you can really give us a fight!”
“Grab that penguin!” The pirate shouted when they’re attempting to grab Raki.
But Raki gives ‘em his karate chops on their neck, and knocks them out.
Aqua punched out another pirate in front of him, and then turned and kicked another with her tail. He narrowly dodged getting sliced open by two more pirates before she swung her tail and slapped another one in the face, and then turned and punched two more.
Aqua swung her tail and delivered a wide roundhouse kick, sending many Tiger Shark Pirates flying into the cliffs and perches.
“TAKE AIM AND FIRE!!” Another Tiger Shark Pirate shouted.
Another pirate attempted to shoot at Aqua from behind with a bazooka, but the Mermaid Princess turned to face her opponents, her eyes momentarily glowing a deep blue.
She effortlessly dodged the bullets, and even deflected one with her arm. Then she started to advance towards the troops, menacingly. The Tiger Shark Pirates tried to keep her at bay by attempting to shoot her with his firearms, but the bullets didn’t even faze Aqua. She just continued to slowly swim towards them, dodging the gunfire.
“My turn.” Aqua said, as she seemed to pull on the water.
“Merman Combat… ULTRA-MARINE!!” Aqua shouted.
THOOM!! Aqua “threw” the current of water at the Tiger Shark Pirates, sending them flying through the water.
“Penguin Karate - WING TORNADO!!” Raki shouts as he spins rapidly and charges at the pirates and knocks ‘em out!
“And WING KARATE CHOP!” Raki shouted as he chops at the pirates neck with his wings.
As Aqua and Raki keep swimming through the pit, one of the KO’ed pirates slowly gets up and sees them left.
“This looks bad. They’re heading to the coliseum… Can any of you report to Lord Kiros?” The second Tiger Shark Pirate asked.
“Don’t bother… Lord Kiros already knows that Ryujin and his daughter are here.” The third Tiger Shark Pirate said.
Meanwhile at the underground prison, Ryujin had just finished plowing the last of the prison guards in his way and had finally reached the cage where Kurao was held.
But he’s not in this prison. And neither are the slaves.
“He’s not here…” Ryujin muttered. “He somehow escaped with the slaves.”
Then he heard a metal bang from outside. Ryujin, Azure and Gamboge swam outside and heard the noise from a house which is made of diamond-covered seashell.
“Looks like someone’s working on that house.” Ryujin said.
“Well, as you can see, Kurao somehow escaped and fled to this house and worked on the dynamites to take down the empire.” Azure said.
“Sounds like he’s planned ahead. Things are getting better than I expected.” Ryujin said as he headed to the house.
Inside the house, the muscular tan-skinned merman, Kurao (46 years old), and the slaves are making the dynamites. And there are 500 of them.
“Kurao, the dynamites are almost ready!” The first slave said.
“Good. Just keep going! This time the empire is going down for good.” Kurao said.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - The Lake and the Mysterious Stone Statues♫
“So you’ve prepared for anything, haven’t you?” A voice behind Kurao is Ryujin who went inside the house.
“Ryujin! It’s been a long time, my old friend!” Kurao greeted, as he shook hands with Ryujin. “How did you get down here?”
“Well, Master Kurao, we led him and his daughter to rescue you, our big sister and Coral.” Azure said.
“Sir Kiros took them to the coliseum, huh? He has planned to lure you and Aqua to his trap by killing you both.” Kurao warned.
“Thanks for the heads-up, Kurao. My daughter, however, is aware of the trap.” Ryujin said.
“Is that so?” Kurao asked, impressed. “Heh, you’ve taught her a lot to be careful.”
“Oh, she's learned many things by herself. She’s even been trained by Kung-Fu Dugongs. I’ve got a deep feeling that the pirates don't have a chance against her.” Ryujin said.
“Ryujin, listen carefully. As long as Kiros uses the Gemstone Pearl, he’s going to let all of his crew members pay for their fake gemstones to get the money. He’s going to buy your whole kingdom.” Kurao warned.
Ryujin’s eyes widen in shock, then narrow in anger while clenches his fist in rage while his trident glows after it responds to his emotion.
“That’s absurd. I refuse to let that fiend buy Atlantis. He must be stopped no matter what.” Ryujin said, angrily.
“Right, and that’s what we’re gonna do. You go ahead and catch up with Aqua. The rest of us are going to plant the dynamites on the empire.” Kurao said.
“Thank you, my old friend. And good luck with the dynamites. Let’s hope this time Kiros is behind the bars for sure.” Ryujin said as he swam out of the house.
“Your Majesty!” Azure called. “Gamboge and I are staying here to help them!”
“As you wish,” Ryujin said. “And I’m counting on you, Kurao!”
“Well, little guys! Time to get some work! It’s time for demolition.” Kurao said while grinning.
“YES, MASTER!” Azure and Gamboge saluted.
♫Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods - Goku in Trouble♫
Aqua and Raki, meanwhile, are still fighting his way to the coliseum. He's run into a nest of Tiger Shark Pirate Crew goons, all heavily armed.
The mermaid princess already sent giant water shots, which looked like a pack of killer whales right at the weapons, and destroyed them.
“That mermaid’s tosses the Water Shot!” The pirate shouted.
“How the hell did she learn the Fish-Man Karate?!” Another pirate shouted before he was sent flying by a water shot.
“This is not a Water Shot! I’ve called it; Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: ORCA PACK!!” Aqua shouted, as she blasted down buildings and took out everyone.
“Now, Aqua! Show them your Fish-Man Karate’s technique!” Raki shouted after he karate chops two other pirates.
“Here goes…” Aqua sighed, before she took a deep breath, and then…
“Fish-Man Karate: Shark Brick Fist!!” She shouted as she thrust her fist forward, sending a shockwave at the rest of the pirates, who were sent flying back from the force!
Then the pirates run for their lives; they are scared that they don’t have any chances against a strong mermaid who takes a deep sigh.
“Well, looks like they’re running away.” Aqua said, satisfied.
“Looks like your training really pays off back at the Fish-Man Dojo. At this rate, you may become stronger than either your father or Jimbei.” Raki said, impressed.
“Not as strong as they are, but thanks for the compliment. Now, let's hurry to the coliseum before it’s too late!” Aqua said before she and Raki swam off once more.
Meanwhile at the coliseum arena, which was as big as Corrida Colosseum at Dressrosa, there are hundreds of members of the Tiger Shark Pirate Crew seated around and cheering wildly.
In the gloomy tunnel, Coral and Chel stood in front of the arena entrance. Their arms are tried up with ropes.
“Coral… I know you’re afraid that this is going to happen, but you have to be brave for Aqua’s sake.” Chel said.
“Chel, I know I have to be brave for her…” Coral said. “But I don’t have to be brave just for her… I have to be brave for you because you’re the one who gives me courage and hope.”
“What are you talking about?” Chel asked, surprised.
“I love you.” Coral confessed, boldly.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King (2024) - All That Was Lost♫
Chel’s eyes widened in disbelief, then she looked at her imploringly.
“Coral…! You loved me? But… We just met.” Chel asked, softly.
“I know. But it’s just… I admire everything about you; your kindness, courage, passion, and cuteness. That’s why I have had lots of feelings about you since I met you. And you'll always be with me when I’m so sad.” Coral admitted.
“You know what? I was about to tell you the same thing.” Chel said.
Coral looked at her, shocked while her eyes shimmering in hope.
“You do?” Coral asked.
“Yes… Since I met you, you look cute, innocent and a little bit inexperienced. But I care about you a lot, Coral. I love you…” Chel confessed.
Coral gasped… but then she smiled while heaving tears in her eyes. “Chel…”
With no further words they’re speaking of, Chel bends her head and nuzzles Coral like a cat-like kiss. Even though they both just met, their hearts have already come together.
“Alright, enough with that smooshing crap. Move out!” The pirate shouted as Coral pulled slowly away.
Coral stares at the pirates, annoyed, and muttered. “Buzzkill.”
Chel laughs silently, as she and Coral emerge into the arena, and can hear a loud roar from the audience of pirates.
After a while Chel and Coral stood at the middle of the arena, looking at Kiros who sat on his throne chair and grins cooly at two axolotls.
“Welcome to the Tiger Shark Colosseum, little axolotls! Today, you two will be the baits to King Ryujin and Princess Aqua! If you want to stay alive, then let’s see if you can escape from my monster. The tentacle monster - GIANT OCTOPUS!!” Kiros announced.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - It Awakens!♫
Out of the giant tunnel, a giant gray skinned prehistoric octopus which is 8 meters tall and is towering two small axolotls which are smaller than the giant monster.
Coral gasped, horrified and Chel wrapped her with her tail.
The giant octopus crawls slowly towards Coral and Chel, and then it lets out its loud roar and raises its arms.
“No way… Is that a prehistoric octopus?” Chel gasped.
“And now… let the game begin!” Kiros declared as the crowd roared in excitement.
Far away from the colosseum, Aqua and Raki hide behind the rock and see Kiros.
“So that’s Kiros?” Aqua asked.
“Yes, that’s him, alright.” Raki replied, then he gasped. “Look! Down there in the arena!”
Aqua saw the arena, and gasped as she saw Coral and Chel were facing a giant prehistoric octopus, then she showed her determined expression.
“Hang in there, Coral. I’m coming!” Aqua said as she swam off and headed to the coliseum.
“Princess! Wait for me!” Raki shouted as he followed her.
Now Aqua is going to have her first challenge; rescuing her best friend from a giant cephalopod and battling the Tiger Shark Pirate’s captain, Lord Kiros.
Will Aqua make it in time, or it’s too late. Find out next time…
TO BE CONTINUED…
Here's the sixth chapter of Aqua: Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.
(Contains with body inflation and lesbian romance)
This chapter continues from the part 1 of Tiger Shark Pirate Story Arc, and it's about Coral and the other axolotls arrived at the Thief Abyss Pit; the hideout of Tiger Shark Pirates, and their captain Lord Kiros.
At later in this chapter, Coral has a lot of feeling for Chel, because... she honestly admires her a lot... And that's how she loves Chel.
And this also shows how Aqua is capable of to battle against her enemies, and she has Fish-Man Karate, Merman Combat and Mermaid Jujutsu (My fan made battle style) techniques so far:
Ultra-Marine
Orca Pack
and
Shark Brick Fist
And another thing... Raki somehow has the power to summons the dolphin and whales, especially the killer whales.
Again, I'll add music tracks to feels like an old-fashioned and traditional Disney movie, and of course One Piece episodes.
And I hope you like my sixth chapter of Aqua Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.

Chapter 6 - Tiger Shark Pirates Part 2 - Thief Abyss Pit
Written By: StarMermaid91
Based on the characters “One Piece” created and owned by:
Eiichiro Oda
A little far duo east from the Kingdom of Atlantis, Coral, Chel, and two axolotl brothers were swimming above the canyons. On the sea floor below the canyon’s surface, there are coral reefs that protect the prey from the predators.
“Hey, Chel… What kind of carnivores lived in these canyons?” Coral asked.
“In the Death Canyons, there are tiger sharks and leopard seals lurking around the corner of the walls. So stay alert.” Azure said.
“Unfortunately, they both are not tagging along because they are territorial and aggressive predators. Still, we’d better stay high from the canyons without getting spotted by them.” Gamboge said.
Suddenly Chel’s fins glows pink; she’s sensing a danger approaching, and said. “I think they sense our presence.”
♫One Piece Movie 7 OST - Karakuri Defense System, Deploy!♫
She looked down, and gasped. “And there are the tiger sharks! A pack of them!”
As she shouted, there were packs of hungry tiger sharks, and they were pleased to see their dinner, and they were served and swam towards them.
“Guys… I think we’re their dinner.” Coral said nervously.
“Follow me!” Chel shouted and swam down to the gorge, as Coral, Azure and Gamboge followed her while the pack of tiger sharks hunted them down.
They swam through the gorge as they fled from the pack of the tiger sharks who were steadily catching up.
“Wait a minute, I thought the tiger sharks are solitary, mostly nocturnal hunters!” Coral corrected.
“Yes, but here in the New World, their hunting behaviors are different from usual ones!” Chel said.
“Hey, sis! Into the small hole!” Azure shouted.
“Come on! In here!” Chel shouted as she and the other axolotls went inside the hole of the cave before the tiger sharks stopped chasing them, before they split up.
Above the gorge, Raki sighs in relief. “Phew, they made it. I’m glad Coral is okay.”
But behind him, there are two leopard seals who snarl at the penguin who slowly turned around, and gasped.
“Leopard seals… Penguins’ worst nightmare.” Raki gasped, frightened, as the leopard seals opened their mouths wide.
“AAAAAAH!!” Raki screamed before he swam off to the north and two leopard seals chased after him while Raki shouted. “I’M GONNA DIE!! I-AM-GONNA-DIE!!!”
Meanwhile at the small cave, the tiger sharks keep circling around the small cave and waiting until their prey comes out.
“They’re circling around, and waiting until we come out of the cave.” Gamboge said.
“Those sharks are faster than all of us. There has to be a way to slow them down.” Azure said.
“You guys swim ahead! I’ll make a rock slide for those scavengers!” Coral said after she got an idea and looked at her body at the same time.
“How can a small axolotl like you can cause a rock slide?” Gamboge asked.
“Wait, I think Coral got an idea!” Chel said as Coral nodded. “She can handle this one, so let's put our trust in her!”
“Okay!” Gamboge and Azure nodded.
♫Finding - Gull Chase (0:21)♫
“All right! Go, now!” Coral shouted as Chel, Gamboge and Azure swam out of the cave.
As they do, the tiger sharks spotted them and chased after them again. Coral comes out of the cave, and hides the coral reef where the sharks can’t go near them.
When she passes under the axolotls, Coral takes a deep breath, and her body expands and grows into the size of a basketball again. And then she floats faster and higher and comes through the coral reef which surprises Chel and her brothers.
As Coral is getting high enough, she opens her mouth and FWOOOOOOOOSH, she expels the air and flies backwards rapidly as she hits the rock walls, and bounces into the other side while deflating slowly.
After she bounces rapidly, the rocks start to fall off the walls and cause an avalanche of rocks, and the tiger sharks halt before turning around if they don’t want to get flatten.
And just in time, Chel, Gamboge and Azure swam out of the gorge, and stopped swimming.
“Phew! Looks like that pink axolotl’s idea really worked!” Azure said.
“You know, I didn’t expect to see her puff up like a pufferfish. What do you think, Chel?” Gamboge asked as he turned to Chel who was amazed by Coral’s ability to inflate.
“Wow… That was amazing…!” Chel muttered, amazed and gasped when she saw Coral fall rapidly towards her while deflating in halfway.
“WOAH!! I OVERDID IT!!” Coral screamed before she was caught by Chel in her arms and is now back to her normal state.
“Are you okay?” Chel asked.
“Yeah… I can’t believe I did this again…!” Coral asked while being dizzy.
“How under the sea did you become like this?” Chel asked as Coral’s eyes returned to normal.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - Hungry Luffy (2:11)♫
Coral looked at Chel’s arms and then at her face, and then she yelped and leaped off her arms. “WHOA! MECHOKKU!”
“You don’t have to catch me on your-” Coral cried embarrassed while blushing and flailing her arms.
“Whatever you did, that was amazing!” Chel exclaimed, amazed after she cut her off and paced forwards at Coral. “Please, show me how to do that! C’mon, c’mon!”
“Eh? You mean when I was inflating like that?” Coral gasped, then blushed while becoming shy. “Well, if I can put it to this, I’m actually getting stung by a pufferfish, and then…”
“Oh? Did the poison kill you?” Chel asked.
“Uh, no… I think it's poison somehow didn’t kill me, and it mutates me into a puffer axolotl.” Coral explained.
“It did?” Chel asked.
“Wow, you’re lucky to be alive, Coral. I think the poison from that puffer fish is a rare specimen when only creatures get stung by it. Once it stung you, the poison merges within your DNA and cells.” Azure said.
“So… I can somehow control my ability to inflate and deflate? I guess I need to exercise to control myself when I deflate rapidly.” Coral asked, then blushed embarrassed.
“I think all you need is to practice. Well, let’s go find that puffer fish and let it sting me!” Coral demanded.
“Unfortunately, big sis, that puffer fish is an endangered specimen, so we’d better just leave it alone.” Azure said.
“Wait, since when you're a big fan of puffy stuff?” Coral asked.
“Oh, you shall soon find out when I have that ability too.” Chel said as Coral’s getting drowsy.
“Can we take a break…?” Coral yawned. “All of that swimming, inflating and flying around while I’m deflating makes me tired.”
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - Gold and Oden (1:38)♫
“Yeah, you’re right. I think we need to find another cavern to seek some shelter, just in case when the other predators roam around here.” Chel sighed.
“Speaking of which, sis, I found it! Over there. And something glowing within it!” Gamboge called as she pointed at the distant cavern while it’s glowing weakly.
“Then let’s call a break for now.” Chel said before Coral slowly sinks into her arms which makes the black-skinned axolotl blushes.
“Chel… Do you mind if you carry me?” Coral whispered, gently.
“Oh, sure I do.” Chel said as she gently carried Coral like a bridal style.
Coral looked it up at Chel who gently carried her and saw her lovely smile and seductive eyes, before she boldly nuzzled her cheek and purrs.
Chel sighed while blushing and nuzzled her back before she swam off to the cavern.
“You’re so cute, Coral…” Chel whispered.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 3 - One Hour Evacuation! (0:00 to 1:04)♫
Meanwhile, Raki is still chased by two leopard seals. He swam out of the forest of sea kelps and screamed. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!”
He then slides on the seafloor of sand to create a cloud of sand dust that blinds the leopard seals. Well, only temporary; the leopard seals swam up high and got the penguin in their sight.
“I’M GONNA DIE!! I-AM-GONNA-DIE!!!” Raki shouted as he swam downwards into the small gorge and kept swimming forward.
“Oh, I can't believe I have such bad luck! Princess Aqua’s counting on me to keep Coral out of trouble, but I already got myself in trouble!!” Raki shouted.
Raki swam ahead to the ruins of the underwater temple, through inside and outside until he’s now at the dead end!
“It’s a dead end!” Raki shouted as he turned around and saw two leopard seals paced forward, but slowly and lick their lips before they opened their mouths.
“This is it? Is my life over?” Raki asked before the two leopard seals opened their mouths and swam towards him.
And then Raki let out a loud shout. “HELP ME!!!” His voice seemed to reverberate throughout the ocean. And then all of a sudden…
A female killer whale came out of the blue, grabbed the first leopard seal with her mouth and dragged it away. And then the second leopard seal was killed by a male killer whale who grabbed it with his teeth.
Raki, who closes eye and thought he’s going to die, opened one of his eyes and saw two orcas already killed two leopard seals, and ate them.
♫One Piece Movie 4 - You're Alive!♫
“Wow… Did I call the killer whales for help?” Raki thoughts in shock, as he saw two killer whales are slowly approaching me. “And they… saved me.”
The female killer whale makes a gentle clicking sound to let him know that they’re not going to eat him, instead they protect him whenever he calls.
Raki pats the female orca’s head before the killer whales swim off.
“Oh… I guess I've swum too far to the north… Now how am I going to find Coral? I think I’d better go back to Atlantis, and start all over to swim due east.” Raki said as he swam off to Atlantis.
♫One Piece Movie 9 - The Doctor Living in the Castle♫
By now, as they’re inside the other cavern, Chel gently puts Coral on the rock while the pink axolotl’s sleeping.
“Man, is it just me or this pink axolotl is in the mood to be so cozy when she’s in your arms, sis?” Azure said.
“Funny, I was thinking the same way too. But she has such an interesting ability to expand like a pufferfish.” Chel said as Coral’s sleeping and blushing.
“Oh… She’s very cute, isn’t she?” Chel sighed enamored.
“Really? And I thought the other male axolotls find you so… attractive and… genuinely infatuated.” Gamboge said.
“Yeah, but I’m not interested in them. It’s just… I find this axolotl so lovely, even though she's a female.” Chel replied as Coral slowly rolled on her side.
Chel smiles gently and rubs Coral’s forehead. “I wish I had that ability too…”
Then she saw a faint light in the cavern, and she followed it.
“Watch over her for me.” Chel said as her brothers nodded as they watched her sister swim off.
As Chel swam through the hole in the floor, she saw a large space with a glowing crystal while gasping and looking on, amazed.
That large space was big as a whole cave, only double times bigger than that. Then she swam slowly towards the crystal and looked at it.
“Hmm… I wonder what this crystal is.” Chel said as she paced slowly towards the crystal.
It still glows while the mysterious powers surge within it. She wonders if it may have the power to make her puffy just like Coral does.
Carefully, Chel put both of her palms on the crystal. Once she does, the crystal starts to make a hum sound and then slowly merges within her body, and then to her cells and DNA.
It doesn’t hurt her, in fact it feels so relaxed. And after the crystal gives her a new energy, its glow fading which makes the whole room darker. Luckily Chel’s pink fins glow which illuminates a little around the dark place.
“Okay… I wonder if it really worked or not…” Chel sighed before she started to inhale.
♫One Piece Movie 3 - Chopper is Crowned King!♫
As she did, her body started to puff up like a pufferfish. Her body keeps inflating until she is as big as a basketball and stops inhaling.
Chel was stunned that her body actually inflates when she inhales, and then she becomes happy that she has the ability just like Coral.
“Hahaha! That’s awesome! It really worked!” Chel shouted overjoyed.
And then she let the air out of her body, and she didn’t fly backward. She somehow controlled herself when she’s deflating.
Satisfied, Chel swam through the hole and met up with her brothers, and then looked at Coral who’s still sleeping.
“So, how's it going?” Azure asked.
“Pretty good. And I’ve got an ability to inflate myself!” Chel giggled.
“Really? Did you get stung by a pufferfish too?” Gamboge asked.
“No… I somehow absorb the mysterious powers from the crystal, and it grants me an ability to inflate with my will.” Chel replied.
“Really?! No wonder why we heard you laugh.” Azure said, amazed.
“Yeah… And… There’s something I need to talk about with Coral… Only both of us. So, will you, my brothers, stay here until we get back?” Chel asked.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 3 - After Eating, Let’s Go to the Grand Line! (0:00 to 1:13)♫
“Hmm, okay. We’ll rest for a while until we’re ready to move on.” Azure said as Chel smiles at her brother, then paces slowly towards Coral, and rubs her arm gently.
“Coral, wake up.” Chel said as she rubs her arm again, and Coral slowly opened her eyes and looked at her.
“Is break time over?” Coral asked.
“Not yet, but there’s something I would like to tell you.” Chel said as Coral sits up.
“What is it?” Coral asked.
“Let’s swim outside.” Chel said as she and Coral slowly swam outside the cavern, and went up to the top of it.
Then they sat down, and looked at the afternoon’s sun reflection.
“It’s quite a day, isn’t it?” Chel started.
“Yeah… I can't believe I just started my own adventure without Aqua.” Coral sighed, sadly.
“Is she your friend?” Chel asked.
“Yes, we were best friends when we were kids. Nothing comes between our friendship.” Coral said proudly, then looked down in shame. “But then… I just snapped at her because I’m getting frustrated about the pirates paying with fake gemstones.”
“I see, and you want to prove to Aqua that you’re not just her pet. You really want to become a brave adventurer just like me.” Chel said.
“Really? You were? Is it because of the vast sea?” Coral asked.
“Not just in the sea, but in the sky.” Chel replied.
“The sky?” Coral asked.
“Yes… I remember that day when I was a younger axolotl.” Chel said.
FLASHBACK
15 years ago…
On that day, when Chel is 9 years old, she’s with her mother, father and brothers, and they’re taking naps under the shades below the palm trees.
“While we’re taking a nap on the small island, we saw a couple of seagulls who were arguing about their food. My father always loves to ride one of them. So I decided to come with him and then the seagulls take us to the sky.” Chel narrated.
As she explained, Chel and her father were flying in the sky while riding on the human-sized seagull. She looked at her father who looked carefree while looking at the view of the ocean.
“See this, Chel? One day, if any of the marine and mythical creatures have the ability to fly in the sky, they can experience their freedom and travel around the world.” Che’s father said.
“Really? Awesome…!” Chel exclaimed, amazed.
FLASHBACK ENDED
“That is why maybe someday, if one of us, or even Aqua, could have that ability to fly in the sky and explore above the ocean.” Chel said.
“Wow… What an amazing story… So that is why you really want to have that ability to puff up like a balloon, right?” Coral gasped, amazed.
“Actually… I have it now.” Chel said as she slowly lifts off the cavern’s top and hovers in front of Chel.
♫Sonic Unleashed - Cutscene - The First Night (0:18 to 0:42)♫
Then once again, Chel inhaled a lot of water, and her body started to expand which surprised Coral, and then she stopped inflating into the size of a basketball.
“Mechokku!” Coral gasped, surprised. “Chel, you… YOU-?!”
“Yup, I absorb the powers from the glowing crystal in the mini trench, and it grants me an ability to inflate with my will just like you.” Chel said, and then she let the water out of her body, and she didn’t fly backward.
“Awesome! Now you and I have the same ability! That’s so cool!” Coral exclaimed, amazed.
“Yeah. Even though we both inhale a lot of water, there’s no telling how our bodies become so light. Maybe because the puffer fish's poison and the mysterious crystal’s powers shift our weight.” Chel said.
“Well, it doesn’t matter! Just wait when Aqua sees me like this, it will blow her mind!” Coral laughed as Chel sits down. “Still, how much farther we have to go?”
“If we keep up our pace, we should reach the edge of Thief Abyss Pit by tonight.” Chel said.
“Tonight? Aqua is getting worried if I was gone too long… But… There’s no way to get back without freeing your master, right?” Coral asked as Chel nodded.
“That is why we should take a break before we continue our mission.” Chel said.
“Okay.” Coral said.
30 minutes later…
♫Dragon Ball Z Battle of Gods - Beerus's Shadow Draws Near (Vegeta's Unease)♫
Raki has already left the deep gorge with tiger sharks. And he couldn't stop thinking about what happened when he called the killer whales for help.
“I still can’t believe I actually called the orcas with my voice.” Raki said. “Even after they saved me from the leopard seals.”
“Maybe either I have a powerful voice to call for help or I have the power to summon the whales.” Raki wondered before he saw the axolotls are on their move, and they almost arrived at the Thief Abyss Pit.
“Still far behind, but I can still catch them up.” Raki said as she swam forwards.
♫The Land Before Time - The Rescue / Discovery of the Great Valley (0:00 to 0:31)♫
By now, Coral, Chel, Azure and Gamboge have arrived at the edge of the Thief Abyss Pit.
“This is it. This is where the Tiger Shark Pirates live down there.” Azure said.
“And Lord Kiros, too.” Gamboge added.
“Wow… there's no bottom of this great abyss.” Coral gasped, silently.
“None of the Atlanteans knows where the pirates came from, until now.” Chel said.
“Great! Now I will prove to Aqua that I’ve discovered their hideout, and I am not a pet anymore.” Coral said, proudly.
Behind the rock, Raki heard what Coral said.
“Oh, man… Coral is getting too close to that hideout. I hope nothing bad happened to her now.” Raki whispered, worriedly.
“Although… It’s scary.” Coral whimpered as she held Chel’s torso.
“Yeah, it's creepy down there, but it's the only way.” Chel said, before she turned to her brothers. “You boys stay here. Coral and I are going ahead.”
“Okay, sis. But be careful.” Azure said.
“Who knows when the giant whirlpool trapped you?” Gamboge asked.
“A WHIRLPOOL?!” Coral gasped.
“Oh, don’t worry about it. We’ll be careful this time.” Chel said before she and Coral descended into the deep pit.
♫The Lion King (1994) - Elephant Graveyard (Score) (0:39 to 1:00)♫
As they’re going deeper, Coral can feel it’s getting colder and freezing.
“Brrrr…! It's cold down here.” Coral whimpered.
“Yeah, the further we go deeper, the colder the currents get.” Chel said.
Then Coral saw the fake gemstone necklace which stuck one of the coral reefs and swam down there.
“Wait, where are you going?” Chel asks as Coral gets closer to the gemstone and tries to get loose from the coral, but it’s stuck.
“I can make those pirates keep their fake gemstones for themselves! So, I’m going to take it back to them.” Coral grunts as she tries to pull the gemstone necklace.
♫Pokémon the Movie 20 I Choose You! OST- Spearow Attack♫
Suddenly a giant whirlpool formed up in the abyss and dragged Chel downward.
“AAAAAAH!” Chel screamed as Coral grabs her tail with her own.
“I GOT YOU!!” Coral shouted as she held Chel as she could while holding the necklace.
“CORAL!” Chel shouted. “DON’T LET GO!!”
“BIG SISTER!!” Azure and Gamboge shouted as Raki swam to the edge.
“AAAH! CORAL!! HANG IN THERE!!” Raki shouted.
Coral looked up and saw Raki at the edge, and called desperately. “RAKI!! GET HELP!! GET AQUA!!!”
After Coral called, her hands slipped off the necklace and she and Chel dragged into the depths below, while Coral screamed in terror.
“CORAAAAAAL!!” Raki shouted in horror.
Then he got up and swam off to heading ahead to Atlantis and shouted. “Coral is in trouble now! I must tell Princess Aqua about this!”
Azure and Gamboge catch up with him, too.
“We’re coming, too! Our sister, Chel, is down there with Coral!” Azure said.
“Chel, huh? Then let’s hurry!” Raki said as two axolotl brothers nodded and swam to Atlantis as fast as they could.
Meanwhile at Atlantis Castle’s balcony, Aqua looked worried and noticed it’s almost midnight, and Coral hasn’t come back yet, or so she thinks. Ryujin stood beside his daughter.
“Oh, where is Coral? It's not like her to stay out this late.” Aqua asked worriedly.
“You’re right, and that makes me worried, too. It's time we went looking for her.” Ryujin said as he put his hand on her shoulder.
“Oh, if anything happens to that little axolotl, I'll never forgive myself.” Aqua said, worriedly, while having tears in her eyes.
♫One Piece Movie 6 OST - Sinking…♫
“KING!! PRINCESS!!” The voices from Raki, with Azure and Gamboge, who were faster towards Aqua and Ryujin.
“Raki! Did something happen to Coral?” Aqua asked as Raki tearfully hugged her head.
“I TRIED TO SAVE HER, PRINCESS!!! But I was too late! The whirlpool dragged her and Chel into the depths below!” Raki cried.
“Whirlpool? Where?” Ryujin asked.
“In the Thief Abyss Pit, a far duo east of Atlantis!” Azure announced.
“Far duo east? Then that means they found the Tiger Shark Pirates’ hideout! Aqua, time to spring into action!” Ryujin said as Aqua nodded.
“You two! Take us there as fast as you can!” Aqua commands.
“Yes, Princess Aqua!” Azure and Gamboge nodded and saluted, and swam ahead, while Aqua, Ryujin and Raki followed them.
“ATHENA, GATHER ALL SOLDIERS AS YOU CAN! THEY FOUND THE HIDEOUT!!” Ryujin shouted loudly.
Inside the castle, Athena heard his voice and nodded, and said. ”As you wish, my love.”
Then Athena swam out to gather all the soldiers who were patrolling around the whole kingdom.
25 minutes earlier…
♫One Piece Movie 6 OST - Thoughts Don't Reach Far Enough (1:10 to 2:20)♫
Coral and Chel are still dragged further into the pit, until they see a large sand worm-like creature is making the whirlpool to be able to feast.
“AAAH! IT’S GONNA EAT US!!” Coral screamed.
“Coral! Time to inflate!” Chel shouted as Coral nodded.
They both inhale quickly, and their bodies inflate rapidly, and then they release the water and fly backwards while deflating while coming out of the whirlpool.
After they hit the seafloor, the giant creature closes its mouth and disappears beneath the sand.
“What the hell was that thing?!” Coral cried.
“That’s a giant sea sand worm. It’s inhaling to create a massive funnel of the whirlpool to feed lots of unfortunate fishes and other aquatic species.” Chel replied. “None of them can possibly swim fast enough to reach the opening between feedings.”
“Phew… it got us into trouble for this. How could've been much worse?” Coral asked.
♫One Piece Music & Song Collection 1 - To the Grand Line! (2:00 to 3:43)♫
“Well, we ARE the worst.” The voice behind Coral and Chel, who gasped and turned around and saw the gang of Tiger Shark Pirates.
“T-The Tiger Shark Pirates!” Coral cried.
“Well, well, well… Look what the cats dragged in.” A male voice came from behind the pirates who stood aside.
This is the tiger shark Fish-Man who wears a red bandana, two spiked shoulder pads and holds his orange trident, and he’s 48 years old.
This is Lord Kiros.
“One of them is the thief, and the pet of Princess Aqua I’ve heard about. Well, I certainly don’t mind this turn of events. Not at all.” Kiros grinned as he brutally kicked Chel.
“CHEL!!” Coral screamed as she swam to Chel and held her hand.
“As I expected that you two escaped from the jaws of this beast. But you won’t be lucky once we caught you red-handed.” Kiros said.
“What do you want from us, Pit-breath?” Coral snarls.
“Pit-breath? SHAAAHAHAHAHA!” Kiros chuckles grimly. “Well, since you’re Princess Aqua’s cute axolotl, I have an entertaining plan for her and her father, Ryujin.”
“What is it?” Chel asked, as she grimaced while getting up slowly, but grabbed by one of the pirates and lifted her while aimed at her head with his gun.
“No!” Coral cried.
“You’ll be our special guest as a prisoner. If you don’t agree to join us in my coliseum, then this little thief shall be shark bait.” Kiros said.
“No, don’t do it!” Coral shouted.
“The choice is yours; either you'll be with this thief in the coliseum as small gladiators, or you watch her die.” Kiros says coolly.
“I…” Coral started, before hesitated while looking at Chel, and then for some seconds, she looked down. “Fine… I’ll go with her. Just, don’t hurt her.”
“Very wise move.” Kiros grinned before turning to his crew. “Take those small axolotls to the coliseum’s dungeon! We’ll be waiting for the other guests of honor.”
A bit later, in the coliseum’s dungeon, a couple of pirates threw Coral and Chel in a cell.
“Get in there!” One of the pirates said.
“You too!” Another pirate said.
They closed the gate, locked it and laughed.
“Don’t get any dumb ideas about escaping, got it?” The third pirate said as he and the other pirates laughed and walked away. “Not that you could, anyway.”
♫Finding Nemo - Miss Your Dad♫
As Chel gets up, she’s looking around to find a way to escape, but there are no objects to break the walls or the cell bars, then she sighs hopelessly.
“There’s nowhere to escape. We’re stuck here.” Chel sighed.
“All of this happened… because I didn’t listen to Aqua.” Coral sniffed, before breaking in tears and sobbed on her knees.
“Coral…” Chel said as she sat closer to Coral, and hugged her softly.
“Oh, Chel… This is all my fault.” Coral sobbed, while crying on Chel’s shoulder.
“It’s okay… It’s okay… I’m here… There’s still hope. Have faith in Aqua. She will save us.” Chel said.
“Aqua… Please forgive me…” Coral sobbed.
Right now, Aqua, Ryujin and Raki are following Azure and Gamboge to the edge of the Thief Abyss Pit.
“There it is, the Thief Abyss Pit!” Azure shouted.
“Are you sure Coral is down there?” Aqua asked.
“Absolutely! And Chel is with her too!” Gamboge replied.
“Chel?” Aqua asked.
“That’s the black axolotl we’ve met earlier today.” Raki replied.
“Oh, right. That was a good name.” Aqua said.
“If this is the hideout we’re looking for, then we shall find Kuraokami, too.” Ryujin said.
“Who is Kuraokami, father?” Aqua asked.
“Kuraokami, or Kurao for short, is an old friend of mine. And he's been a great warrior of Atlantis since his 20s. He is currently leading his comrades to arrest the pirates and bring them to the Odyssey Kingdom as our justice.” Ryujin replied.
“Unfortunately, he was captured by Kiros and turned him and his comrades to slaves. So that is why I will save him too.” Ryujin finished.
“Understood, we’ll save both Kurao and Coral in the pit. There’s no time to lose.” Aqua said as she and the others descended into the deep pit.
They’ve reached the point where Coral and Chel stopped before they sucked in the whirlpool.
“They were about here where Coral’s trying to pull this gemstone from this coral.” Azure said.
“And did you say the whirlpool dragged them into the darkest pit, Raki?” Ryujin asked.
“Yes, my eyes didn’t deceive me this time!” Raki replied.
“Oh no…” Aqua gasped, before she called. “CORAL! CORAL!! WHERE ARE YOU?!”
But Aqua didn’t hear her respond, and lowered her head sadly.
♫One Piece Strong World - Shiki Abandons Nami ~Luffy Appears~♫
Then they heard a loud whoosh and saw a giant whirlpool formed.
“There it is! This is the same whirlpool that got Coral!” Raki shouted.
“I’m going in!” Aqua shouted, determinedly.
“Me too, Aqua!” Ryujin said.
“I vote for that too! It’s my responsibility!” Raki shouted.
“Hang on tight, dear!” Ryujin said as he grabbed his daughter around her torso.
Then they are swimming into the whirlpool and going down to the depths.
“Shall we, Azure?” Gamboge asked.
“I’m ready when you are, Gamboge!” Azure nodded as they grabbed their hands.
Then they jumped into the whirlpool and shouted. “THE AXOLOTL BROTHERS TO THE RESCUE!!”
The whirlpool pulls in the small creatures as Aqua, Ryujin, Raki, Azure and Gamboge keep swimming downward through the whirlpool!
When they spot a giant aquatic sand worm, Ryujin shoots a beam from his magical trident at it to make it retract long enough for them to get to safety.
“Phew… So that’s where the whirlpool came from.” Aqua sighed.
“It’s a giant sea sand worm…!” Raki gasped, terrified.
“Hope that will retract long enough for a while.” Ryujin said as he looked around the pit. “And looks like we’ve arrived at the pit where the pirates reside.”
“But why are they not getting by that giant sea worm?” Aqua asked.
“That’s a good question. I don’t know. Must be someone who controls it.” Ryujin said.
“And I guess this is the Tiger Shark Pirate crew’s territory.” Aqua guessed.
♫One Piece Movie 5 - Marines Attack the Village♫
“I think you guessed correctly, Princess. Look.” Azure said as he pointed at the pirates, and they’re approaching them while chuckles, grimly.
“Wow, I don’t think they expected us that we’re here!” Aqua cried.
“Coral and Chel's arrival probably made the pirates aware of our presence.” Ryujin said.
“They’re here, and there, and everywhere!!” Raki cried. “360 degrees, all you see is the pirates!! We’re surrounded!!”
“So, you've come, King Ryujin. Do you realize where you are?” The first Tiger Shark Pirate asked as Aqua glares at him.
“This is our territory, so you’d better surrender or prepare to-”
BAM!!
♫One Piece Movie 7 - Straw Hat Pirates, Initiate Counterattack!♫
One punch from Aqua sends the pirate flying. He lands on the ground. The Mermaid Princess swims over and picks him up, then slams the man against a wall.
Ryujin was surprised at first, but then grins because he was impressed by Aqua’s strength.
“I asked you a civil question, pirate!” Aqua growls, extremely serious.
One of the pirate's friends tries to cut the mermaid's head from behind, but Aqua sees him coming. She swung her tail and whips him out, and this effectively wards off any other interlopers.
“The axolotls! You’ve seen them! Where are they?” Aqua questioned, angrily.
“L-L-Lord Kiros! H-H-He got ‘em! B-B-B-But he ordered us to put them into the coliseum’s dungeon!” The pirate stammered, nervously.
“The coliseum? Where is it?!” Aqua questioned again.
“R-R-Right there!” The pirate answered while pointed at the reader board with arrow signs. “We’re using this for dummies.”
“Thanks for the info.” Aqua said as she dropped him to the floor, then turned to her father. “Father, I’m going ahead to the coliseum! You go find Kurao!”
“So we're splitting up in two teams, and finding Kurao and Chel? Sounds like a good idea. And be careful, we don’t know how strong Kiros is.” Ryujin said as Aqua nodded and swam off.
“I’m going with Aqua, Sir!” Raki saluted as he swam to catch up with Aqua.
“Come on, you two!” Ryujin called at Azure and Gamboge. “Let’s go find Kurao!”
Azure and Gamboge nodded as they and Ryujin swam into the opposite direction; they’re heading to the underground prison where Kurao and the slaves are captured.
The pirates stood in front of them to not let go any further.
“Back off! If you try to release Kurao, then we shall cut you into pieces!” Another pirate warned.
“Sorry, pirates,” Ryujin said. “Nothing personal but… you’re in my way!”
ZHEEN!! Ryujin’s pupils expanded, and a sudden burst of Haki came out of him, knocking out some of the pirates who were around him and the axolotl brothers. Then they swam off to the prison.
The Axolotl Brothers could only look on with mouths agape.
“How did he do that?” asked Azure to no one in particular.
“Beats…me…!” stammered Gamboge.
“Aqua… Those pirates look weak enough for you. You can knock ‘em out if you feel like it.” Ryujin thought with a grin.
♫Final Fantasy XV - Stand Your Ground♫
As for Aqua and Raki, they’re still racing through the Tiger Shark Pirates, en route to the coliseum. No sign of pursuers behind her, but other pirates have apparently heard about the appearance of a Mermaid Princess, and are ready to exterminate her. They line up on the cliffs and are ready to open fire.
“Pirates, incoming!” Raki shouted.
“Let’s knock ‘em out!” Aqua shouted as she charged at them.
As they fired at her, Aqua began to lay the smack-down on some more pirates that surrounded her. She whacks them with her tail, and it’s so strong enough to send them flying to the ground.
“Out of my way, pirates!” Aqua roared as she punched another Tiger Shark Pirates in the face. Then she began to swim faster.
“Don’t let her get away!!”
“STOP HER!!”
Out of nowhere, Raki slides on his belly on the ground, and knocks the pirates down.
“Hey, pirates!” Raki said. “You have a long way to go before you can really give us a fight!”
“Grab that penguin!” The pirate shouted when they’re attempting to grab Raki.
But Raki gives ‘em his karate chops on their neck, and knocks them out.
Aqua punched out another pirate in front of him, and then turned and kicked another with her tail. He narrowly dodged getting sliced open by two more pirates before she swung her tail and slapped another one in the face, and then turned and punched two more.
Aqua swung her tail and delivered a wide roundhouse kick, sending many Tiger Shark Pirates flying into the cliffs and perches.
“TAKE AIM AND FIRE!!” Another Tiger Shark Pirate shouted.
Another pirate attempted to shoot at Aqua from behind with a bazooka, but the Mermaid Princess turned to face her opponents, her eyes momentarily glowing a deep blue.
She effortlessly dodged the bullets, and even deflected one with her arm. Then she started to advance towards the troops, menacingly. The Tiger Shark Pirates tried to keep her at bay by attempting to shoot her with his firearms, but the bullets didn’t even faze Aqua. She just continued to slowly swim towards them, dodging the gunfire.
“My turn.” Aqua said, as she seemed to pull on the water.
“Merman Combat… ULTRA-MARINE!!” Aqua shouted.
THOOM!! Aqua “threw” the current of water at the Tiger Shark Pirates, sending them flying through the water.
“Penguin Karate - WING TORNADO!!” Raki shouts as he spins rapidly and charges at the pirates and knocks ‘em out!
“And WING KARATE CHOP!” Raki shouted as he chops at the pirates neck with his wings.
As Aqua and Raki keep swimming through the pit, one of the KO’ed pirates slowly gets up and sees them left.
“This looks bad. They’re heading to the coliseum… Can any of you report to Lord Kiros?” The second Tiger Shark Pirate asked.
“Don’t bother… Lord Kiros already knows that Ryujin and his daughter are here.” The third Tiger Shark Pirate said.
Meanwhile at the underground prison, Ryujin had just finished plowing the last of the prison guards in his way and had finally reached the cage where Kurao was held.
But he’s not in this prison. And neither are the slaves.
“He’s not here…” Ryujin muttered. “He somehow escaped with the slaves.”
Then he heard a metal bang from outside. Ryujin, Azure and Gamboge swam outside and heard the noise from a house which is made of diamond-covered seashell.
“Looks like someone’s working on that house.” Ryujin said.
“Well, as you can see, Kurao somehow escaped and fled to this house and worked on the dynamites to take down the empire.” Azure said.
“Sounds like he’s planned ahead. Things are getting better than I expected.” Ryujin said as he headed to the house.
Inside the house, the muscular tan-skinned merman, Kurao (46 years old), and the slaves are making the dynamites. And there are 500 of them.
“Kurao, the dynamites are almost ready!” The first slave said.
“Good. Just keep going! This time the empire is going down for good.” Kurao said.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - The Lake and the Mysterious Stone Statues♫
“So you’ve prepared for anything, haven’t you?” A voice behind Kurao is Ryujin who went inside the house.
“Ryujin! It’s been a long time, my old friend!” Kurao greeted, as he shook hands with Ryujin. “How did you get down here?”
“Well, Master Kurao, we led him and his daughter to rescue you, our big sister and Coral.” Azure said.
“Sir Kiros took them to the coliseum, huh? He has planned to lure you and Aqua to his trap by killing you both.” Kurao warned.
“Thanks for the heads-up, Kurao. My daughter, however, is aware of the trap.” Ryujin said.
“Is that so?” Kurao asked, impressed. “Heh, you’ve taught her a lot to be careful.”
“Oh, she's learned many things by herself. She’s even been trained by Kung-Fu Dugongs. I’ve got a deep feeling that the pirates don't have a chance against her.” Ryujin said.
“Ryujin, listen carefully. As long as Kiros uses the Gemstone Pearl, he’s going to let all of his crew members pay for their fake gemstones to get the money. He’s going to buy your whole kingdom.” Kurao warned.
Ryujin’s eyes widen in shock, then narrow in anger while clenches his fist in rage while his trident glows after it responds to his emotion.
“That’s absurd. I refuse to let that fiend buy Atlantis. He must be stopped no matter what.” Ryujin said, angrily.
“Right, and that’s what we’re gonna do. You go ahead and catch up with Aqua. The rest of us are going to plant the dynamites on the empire.” Kurao said.
“Thank you, my old friend. And good luck with the dynamites. Let’s hope this time Kiros is behind the bars for sure.” Ryujin said as he swam out of the house.
“Your Majesty!” Azure called. “Gamboge and I are staying here to help them!”
“As you wish,” Ryujin said. “And I’m counting on you, Kurao!”
“Well, little guys! Time to get some work! It’s time for demolition.” Kurao said while grinning.
“YES, MASTER!” Azure and Gamboge saluted.
♫Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods - Goku in Trouble♫
Aqua and Raki, meanwhile, are still fighting his way to the coliseum. He's run into a nest of Tiger Shark Pirate Crew goons, all heavily armed.
The mermaid princess already sent giant water shots, which looked like a pack of killer whales right at the weapons, and destroyed them.
“That mermaid’s tosses the Water Shot!” The pirate shouted.
“How the hell did she learn the Fish-Man Karate?!” Another pirate shouted before he was sent flying by a water shot.
“This is not a Water Shot! I’ve called it; Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: ORCA PACK!!” Aqua shouted, as she blasted down buildings and took out everyone.
“Now, Aqua! Show them your Fish-Man Karate’s technique!” Raki shouted after he karate chops two other pirates.
“Here goes…” Aqua sighed, before she took a deep breath, and then…
“Fish-Man Karate: Shark Brick Fist!!” She shouted as she thrust her fist forward, sending a shockwave at the rest of the pirates, who were sent flying back from the force!
Then the pirates run for their lives; they are scared that they don’t have any chances against a strong mermaid who takes a deep sigh.
“Well, looks like they’re running away.” Aqua said, satisfied.
“Looks like your training really pays off back at the Fish-Man Dojo. At this rate, you may become stronger than either your father or Jimbei.” Raki said, impressed.
“Not as strong as they are, but thanks for the compliment. Now, let's hurry to the coliseum before it’s too late!” Aqua said before she and Raki swam off once more.
Meanwhile at the coliseum arena, which was as big as Corrida Colosseum at Dressrosa, there are hundreds of members of the Tiger Shark Pirate Crew seated around and cheering wildly.
In the gloomy tunnel, Coral and Chel stood in front of the arena entrance. Their arms are tried up with ropes.
“Coral… I know you’re afraid that this is going to happen, but you have to be brave for Aqua’s sake.” Chel said.
“Chel, I know I have to be brave for her…” Coral said. “But I don’t have to be brave just for her… I have to be brave for you because you’re the one who gives me courage and hope.”
“What are you talking about?” Chel asked, surprised.
“I love you.” Coral confessed, boldly.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King (2024) - All That Was Lost♫
Chel’s eyes widened in disbelief, then she looked at her imploringly.
“Coral…! You loved me? But… We just met.” Chel asked, softly.
“I know. But it’s just… I admire everything about you; your kindness, courage, passion, and cuteness. That’s why I have had lots of feelings about you since I met you. And you'll always be with me when I’m so sad.” Coral admitted.
“You know what? I was about to tell you the same thing.” Chel said.
Coral looked at her, shocked while her eyes shimmering in hope.
“You do?” Coral asked.
“Yes… Since I met you, you look cute, innocent and a little bit inexperienced. But I care about you a lot, Coral. I love you…” Chel confessed.
Coral gasped… but then she smiled while heaving tears in her eyes. “Chel…”
With no further words they’re speaking of, Chel bends her head and nuzzles Coral like a cat-like kiss. Even though they both just met, their hearts have already come together.
“Alright, enough with that smooshing crap. Move out!” The pirate shouted as Coral pulled slowly away.
Coral stares at the pirates, annoyed, and muttered. “Buzzkill.”
Chel laughs silently, as she and Coral emerge into the arena, and can hear a loud roar from the audience of pirates.
After a while Chel and Coral stood at the middle of the arena, looking at Kiros who sat on his throne chair and grins cooly at two axolotls.
“Welcome to the Tiger Shark Colosseum, little axolotls! Today, you two will be the baits to King Ryujin and Princess Aqua! If you want to stay alive, then let’s see if you can escape from my monster. The tentacle monster - GIANT OCTOPUS!!” Kiros announced.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - It Awakens!♫
Out of the giant tunnel, a giant gray skinned prehistoric octopus which is 8 meters tall and is towering two small axolotls which are smaller than the giant monster.
Coral gasped, horrified and Chel wrapped her with her tail.
The giant octopus crawls slowly towards Coral and Chel, and then it lets out its loud roar and raises its arms.
“No way… Is that a prehistoric octopus?” Chel gasped.
“And now… let the game begin!” Kiros declared as the crowd roared in excitement.
Far away from the colosseum, Aqua and Raki hide behind the rock and see Kiros.
“So that’s Kiros?” Aqua asked.
“Yes, that’s him, alright.” Raki replied, then he gasped. “Look! Down there in the arena!”
Aqua saw the arena, and gasped as she saw Coral and Chel were facing a giant prehistoric octopus, then she showed her determined expression.
“Hang in there, Coral. I’m coming!” Aqua said as she swam off and headed to the coliseum.
“Princess! Wait for me!” Raki shouted as he followed her.
Now Aqua is going to have her first challenge; rescuing her best friend from a giant cephalopod and battling the Tiger Shark Pirate’s captain, Lord Kiros.
Will Aqua make it in time, or it’s too late. Find out next time…
TO BE CONTINUED…
Here's the sixth chapter of Aqua: Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.
(Contains with body inflation and lesbian romance)
This chapter continues from the part 1 of Tiger Shark Pirate Story Arc, and it's about Coral and the other axolotls arrived at the Thief Abyss Pit; the hideout of Tiger Shark Pirates, and their captain Lord Kiros.
At later in this chapter, Coral has a lot of feeling for Chel, because... she honestly admires her a lot... And that's how she loves Chel.
And this also shows how Aqua is capable of to battle against her enemies, and she has Fish-Man Karate, Merman Combat and Mermaid Jujutsu (My fan made battle style) techniques so far:
Ultra-Marine
Orca Pack
and
Shark Brick Fist
And another thing... Raki somehow has the power to summons the dolphin and whales, especially the killer whales.
Again, I'll add music tracks to feels like an old-fashioned and traditional Disney movie, and of course One Piece episodes.
And I hope you like my sixth chapter of Aqua Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.
