Aqua: Mermaid Princess of Atlantis
Chapter 7 - Tiger Shark Pirates Part 3 - Lord Kiros
Written By: StarMermaid91
Based on the characters “One Piece” created and owned by:
Eiichiro Oda
♫One Piece Movie 3 OST - Usopp Boomerang!♫
At the Thief Abyss Pit’s Colosseum, the giant prehistoric octopus lifts its arm to squash Coral and Chel. Lucky for them, they dodge its arm and swim off.
“What are we gonna do?” Coral asked, worriedly.
“Keep on swimming! We may be tired out of it!” Chel replied, and then they split off to different directions.
Chel is swimming under the octopus while Coral swims over it, then they swim around it in circles.
But the octopus is not getting exhausted while trying to catch them with its long arms. Coral and Chel swam faster to escape from its clutches.
On the throne chair, Lord Kiros was amused to see two small sea amphibians swimming this fast.
“Heh… So that princess’ pet and the thief are so nimble. But their speed is not good enough for my big pet.” Kiros said as the octopus’ eye glows yellow. “He may be too big, but he’s very agile just like a dolphin.”
“It’s feeding time!” Kiros shouted as the giant octopus swam towards Chel and Coral who were swimming around the arena.
Coral and Chel tried to escape, but before they knew it, the giant octopus had painfully grabbed them and pulled them closer to their eyes, causing them to scream in pain!
“CHEL! WE GOTTA INFLATE OUR BODIES!!” Coral cried.
“I can’t…!” Chel wheezed. “It’s too strong for us! We can’t get out of this!”
“I am aware of what you two small axolotls are trying to do to exhaust my octopus. But that won’t work this time. And now I’ll make you go bye-bye! SHAHAHAHA!!” Kiros laughed as the octopus slowly pulled two axolotls towards its mouth.
“No…!” Chel wheezed. “This can’t end like this…!”
“AQUA!!” Coral cried. “HELP ME!!”
♫One Piece: Stampede - Luffy’s Seriousness♫
“Yoo-hoo~! Hey, you big bully!” A female voice called as the octopus looked up and saw Aqua who was high above it.
And she’s not alone, Raki’s with her too.
The Tiger Shark Pirates were shocked and surprised and cried, “WHAT?! PRINCESS AQUA IS HERE?!”
“Aqua! You’re here!” Coral cried.
Unlike his pirate crew who are at all pleased about this turn of events, Kiros grins expectantly, and says. “So she’s finally here. The daughter of Ryujin.”
“Why don't you pick on someone your own size?” Aqua teased while showing her confident grin. “Or even one-fourth your size, like me?”
The giant octopus reached its arms to catch the Mermaid Princess, but Aqua dodged them with her speed, and swam around the monster with her high speed.
As Aqua keeps swimming around it, the giant octopus’s arms try to reach her, but in the end they are somehow tied into a knot, effectively immobilizing it and falling to the ground.
Then it was forced to let go of Coral and Chel, while the pirates boos and whistles at Aqua who ruined the entertainment while the Mermaid Princess just ignored them.
“BOO!! HISS”
“CHEATER!!”
“YOU RUINED OUR ENTERTAINMENT!!”
But Kiros didn't mind; he found this mermaid interesting.
“So she defeated my octopus. No wonder why she looks like her mother, Athena.” Kiros thought while grinning.

“Aqua!” Coral cried as she swam towards Aqua and hugged her.
“Oh, Coral. Thank God, you’re okay.” Aqua cried.
“I’m glad she’s safe.” Raki sighed in relief as Chel approached her.
“She’s okay, penguin. She’s just shaken after all the stuff happened to her.” Chel said.
“Oh, you must be Chel, right?” Raki asked before he cleared his throat. “Ahem. My name is Raki, the king’s advisor.”
“I’m so glad that you’re here, Aqua. I knew that you came to save us.” Coral sniffed.
“Coral, there’s something I need to tell you…” Aqua started as Coral looked at her. “I’m… I’m sorry for yelling at you because… I just don’t want you getting hurt by those pirates. When I saw you get hurt, my protective instincts over and… that makes me over-protective.”
“So, that’s the reason you’re not allowed me to leave the castle?” Coral asked, disbelieved.
“If anything bad happened to you again, I… I don’t know what to do.” Aqua said.
“Oh, Aqua…” Coral gasped silently, before she turned away and sighed regretfully. “I’m sorry for deliberately disobeying you. I’m just getting frustrated because we can not do anything to stop the pirates paying the people with the fake gemstones. That’s why I’m running away and why I was afraid to come home.”
“I… I want to show that I’m more than a pet… I just want to become a brave adventurer, but… in the end I was wrong, and it’s my fault that I didn’t listen to you.” Coral admitted.
“Coral…” Aqua gasped silently, then sighed. “I knew that you will be a brave adventurer someday… But you can’t do it alone. I’m just glad that you got new friends, especially Chel.”
As she said Chel’s name, Aqua turned her head to Chel and smiled at her while nodding her head while the black axolotl smiled at the Mermaid Princess.
“No matter where you’re going and when you decide to do something important, you'll always be my friend, and we’ll stick together to the end.” Aqua said while smiling at Coral who now has tears in her eyes.
“Friends stick together to the end…” Coral whispered, tearfully before she hugged Aqua. “I love you, Aqua!”
Aqua hugged Coral back while Chel and Raki smiled that they already reconciled together, and they’ve become friends again.
♫One Piece Movie 3 - Sanji vs. Snake♫
“How touching.” Kiros said, which alerted Aqua who looked up at her. “As I hate the sentimental moments between you two, I’m so pleased that you showed up, Princess Aqua.”
Aqua glared at Kiros while Coral floated beside her.
“Before your father is here… I shall at least execute you for now.” Kiros said as the Water Shot formed from his fingers. “Try to survive this… WATER SHOT!!”
Horrified, Coral gasped, and swam swiftly at Aqua and shouted. “LOOK OUT!!”
WHAP!! Kiros sent a bullet of water right at Aqua.
And just in time Chel tackles Aqua out of the way, and is knocked in the body by the Water Shot. She falls to the ground and slides against the arena wall.
“CHEL!!” Coral screamed as she and Raki swam over to her.
Chel lies unconsciously while Aqua’s eyes widen in shock.
“No…!” Aqua gasped.
“Well, looks like the little thief makes a bold move. Sacrificing herself to save the princess and her little pet.” Kiros chuckles, grimly.
“Aqua! Are you okay?” A male voice from King Ryujin who made it just in time after swimming over the audience.
“Father!” Aqua cried as he hugged him. “It’s Chel, she’s protected us from Kiros’ Water Shot.”
“Is that so?” Ryujin growls after he’s looking up at Kiros who grins widely and chuckles.
“So you’re finally here, Ryujin.” Kiros snarled.
♫One Piece Movie 4 OST - If You Live♫
Raki tries to feel Chel’s pulses in her arm, and he can feel it.
“Is she okay?” Ryujin asked after he and Aqua swam towards them.
“She’s okay. Her pulses are still normal. She’s one tough axolotl.” Raki said as Coral held Chel’s hand while trying to hold her tears back.
“Chel…” Coral sniffed as Chel slowly opened her eyes and looked at her.
“Are you okay, pinkie?” Chel asked while Coral hugged her.
“Oh, thank God!” Coral cried.
“As I told you before, and I said it again… My only wish is to serve the Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.” Chel said as she hugged her back and Aqua approached her.
“Chel…” Aqua started. “Thank you for saving us. Just don’t pull any more crazy stunts.”
“Well, let me tell you this…” Chel whispered. “People always do crazy things when they're in love.”
“In love? What are you-” Aqua asked before Ryujin started to shout at Kiros.

“Kiros! I know you’re up to no good over a thousand times! But this is way beyond the crime!” Ryujin shouted angrily.
“Yeah, a thousand times of crimes you committed!” Raki shouted after he swam to the king.
“You’re using the Gemstone Pearl to make fake gemstones to get not just food and weapons, but a lot of money to buy my kingdom. I won’t allow you to do such a shameful thing!” Ryujin shouted angrily.
“You have no shame at all!” Raki added.
“Hmph.” Kiros scoffed as he got up from his throne chair and approached the edge. “You’re right, Ryujin. I’m a pirate, and I have no shame; just be proud of it.”
“What do you mean? Explain yourself!” Ryujin demanded.
“Do you remember those days before Atlantis was sunk to the bottom of the ocean?” Kiros asked as he remembered his childhood. “I was born at the Lair of Thieves, and I was born as a thief. When I got older, I started to steal the money, food, and weapons to survive in the streets.”
“My life is perfect, until you and your queen, Athena, caught me red-handed. Like almost… how many times was it again?” Kiros continued as he held a finger to his face, and then made his mock realization. “Oh yes… Almost 20 times.”
“And then after your 25th time to capture me, your father, Raijin and King Perseus have decided to banish me into the depths of the ocean and never return.” Kiros continued.
“To get my revenge, I’ve decided to move into the Thief Abyss Pit, and there are lots of Tiger Shark Pirates in here. Instead of killing me, they welcomed me since they know that I’m a criminal just like them. And they even declared me as the captain of this crew. And that’s why I’ve kidnapped the strong mermen and Fish-men to build an empire. However, this whole place is not enough to rule all over the sea.” Kiros continued.
“And how did you get that Gemstone Pearl?” Raki asked.
“Oh, that? My crew found it within the cave. The pearl can create the small rock boulders into the pieces of fake gemstones to buy food, treasure, and the weapons. And soon when I got a lot of weapons and money, I decided to use them to buy your kingdom, King Ryujin.” Kiros said while Ryujin’s eyebrows narrowed down in rage.
“You monster…” Ryujin growled as his trident glowed lightning.
“SHAAHAHAHAHA! And today, the time has finally come. Thanks to those axolotls, I’ve finally lured you and your daughter in, this couldn't have worked out better if I planned it.” Kiros laughed, and then he pointed his men at the audience, who got up from their seats and unsheathed their swords.
“Look around at my men in the seats! There are 65,000 of my brothers who are looking forward to ruling the sea together! Oh, and one more thing I would like to tell. Unlike Arlong and Hody Jones, I am not interested in humans, even your human comrades in the Odyssey Kingdom, and am not going to kill them. No. I rather want to conquer the Kingdom of Atlantis, and become the next king.” Kiros declared.
Aqua lowered her head to the point where her eyes were hidden in the rim of her hair bangs.
“... So this is what you’re planning to do?” Aqua whispered.
“What a brute…!” Chel growled as Aqua swam away.
“Aqua?” Coral asked, worriedly as Aqua swam past Ryujin and Raki.
“Father, Raki. Stay with Coral and Chel. I’ll handle this.” Aqua said.
“What?! All by yourself?!” Raki asked the Mermaid Princess. “Are you going to fight against 65,000 pirates all by yourself?”
“I’ll be fine, just go.” Aqua said as Ryujin’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Aqua…” Ryujin muttered, surprised, then his eyebrow narrowed to his neutral expression. “As you wish, my dear. But be careful.”
As Ryujin turned around and swam back to Coral and Chel, Raki looked worriedly at Aqua, then looked up at Kiros.
“Oh, one more question, Kiros? Maybe if you can send one of your crewmates to fight Aqua before she fights another one? I don’t know, maybe it’s against the rules!” Raki asked.
“Hmhmhmhm…” Kiros chuckles, muffled. “I don’t think so.”
Then he bent his head down at Aqua first for a few seconds, then looked up at Ryujin. “I like your daughter’s spunk. It sounds like she accepted my challenge.”
“Don’t push your own luck, Kiros!” Ryujin warned.
“Oh, I wouldn’t do that if I were your daughter.” Kiros said while grinning grimly as his crewmates leaped into the coliseum floor and grins wickedly at Aqua.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - Bye-Bye♫
“While you ruled your kingdom, I built my army of pirates. Your Atlanteans are the last race in the Kingdom of Atlantis, which means everything the light touches belongs to me.” Kiros declared.
“There will be one ruler. One Atlantean King.” Kiros declared once more, before he started to sing.
Kiros:
♫You say you're the king
But you sat around in the shade
Out of shape, unafraid♫
The scene shifts into the dark night with a moon, and Kiros cuts the moon in half with his trident before the scene shifts back to the coliseum arena.
Kiros:
♫The moon cuts a path
Through the sky
By night or by day
It doesn't obey
And neither do I♫
Then he glares at Ryujin while he grins and points at the king.
Kiros:
♫Long ago, you took my dignity
And now, I’ll took your divinity♫
Then the first pirates stamp their feet to the beat of the music of the first verse while they march around Aqua, who’s still lowered her head, but she can hear their footsteps.
Kiros:
♫'Cause I'm gonna be
The last thing you see
Before you go bye-bye
There you go, bye-bye
I rule all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go bye-bye
I make you go bye-bye♫
While Kiros says “bye-bye” parts, he mocks Ryujin and Aqua while waving goodbyes, but doesn't scare ‘em. Then Kiros clenched his fist in the air, then released it while looking above the surface beyond the pit.
Kiros:
♫Everything in my clutches, ha!
Bye-bye
Everything the light touches♫
Then he glares at them while he keeps singing.
Kiros:
♫The Circle of Life is a lie
A pretty way to say there are predators and prey♫
The scene shifts into the flock of giant petrels who were flying above the ocean then the scene shifts back to Kiros who paces back and forward while dancing literally.
Kiros:
♫That flock of giant petrels up high
They keep stealing glances
They don't like your chances
And neither do I♫
Kiros looks down at his pirate crew, who all jump down to the ground and they already surrender Aqua.
Kiros:
♫I run my pride
You run and hide♫
Again, the pirates stamp their feet to the beat of the music of the second verse while they march around Aqua one more time.
Kiros:
♫'Cause I'm gonna be
The last thing you see
Before you go bye-bye
There you go, bye-bye
I rule all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go bye-bye
I make you go bye-bye♫
Once again, Kiros says “bye-bye” parts, he mocks Ryujin and Aqua while waving goodbyes, still not scaring them, but Raki bites his wings nervously. Coral, Ryujin and Chel looked at Kiros with their angry glare.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye
Your kingdom is mine
If I'm the last of my line
I must be strong♫
When Kiros says the “strong” lyric part, the pirates start to sing this part while preparing their rifles.
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫He rules all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go♫
And then Kiros joined in.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye♫
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫Bye-bye♫
Kiros:
♫I make you go♫
Kiros, Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫Bye-bye♫
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫So long♫
When the pirates sing the “so long” part, Kiros makes his vocalizing effects.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye♫
And after that, the Tiger Shark Pirates roared as they charged at Aqua.
“AAAAAH!” Raki screamed as he hid behind King Ryujin and covered his eyes with his wings. “I CAN’T LOOK!”
“Aqua…!” Coral gasped, horrified as she hugged Chel.
The Tiger Shark Pirates hollered and roared as they went in for the kill.
“This Mermaid Princess is all mine!!”
“No, she’s mine!!”
“We’ll slice that head of yours right off!!”
“SHAHAHAHAHA!” Kiros cackled. “Bye-bye, Princess Aqua!”
♫One Piece OST: Overtaken - EPIC VERSION (Drums of Liberation)♫
Suddenly, Aqua raised her head up and her pupils expanded. A huge, unseen force with thin white and blue energy that crackled, pulsated from her, stopping at the horde in their tracks! Even Kiros seemed to tremble from this strange energy.
“Huh?” Kiros asked.
All 65,000 pirates, who froze in their tracks before, fell on the ground, one-by-one, with a thud, foaming at the mouth!
Kiros gasped silently at this, while Chel’s eyes went in shock.
“What was that?” Chel asked.
“That was… Conqueror’s Haki,” said Coral, amazed.
“Y-Your Majesty…!” Raki stammered as his jaw fell on the floor. “S-S-She knocks out all 65,000 pirates with one burst of Haki!”
“Well, of course,” Ryujin said. “I wouldn’t expect anything better from her. I guess her training at Kung-Fu Dugongs Dojo was worth it, and she unlocked her three powers of Haki.”
“Captain Kiros!” Aqua shouted, shouted, pointing at Kiros. “I’ve come from the Kingdom of Atlantis with the sole purpose of defeating you!”
“What?” Kiros questioned.
“You use the Gemstone Pearl to create the phony gemstones to get all the stuff you buy, and you’re going to buy Atlantis, and you’ll stop at nothing to get what you want, “Aqua said, “I will not forgive anyone who disrupts the peaceful lives of citizens.”
“In the name of the Kingdom of Atlantis, I, Princess Aqua, challenge you to battle!” Aqua shouted.
With a frustrated scoff, Kiros jumped off the edge and landed in front of Aqua.
“For a mermaid, you’ve got guts, take all my men down with your Conqueror’s Haki, and then challenge me to a battle, “Kiros said, “You must have a lot of confidence in your own powers.”
“However, you don’t have a chance against me.” Kiros said as he wielded his trident. “Not even Ryujin’s daughter could possibly defeat me. After all, I’ve been waiting for a long time to take down the royal family!”
“You're welcome to try.” Aqua said as she made a “come here” gesture with her point finger and grins.
“Grr! Alright! Let’s see if you can dodge my faithful trident! One pierce through your body, and it’s GAME OVER!!” Kiros shouted and launched his trident forward at Aqua.
But Aqua’s eyes glow blue and simply move left, evading with little to no effort, making Kiros miss her, and then Aqua grabs his trident and breaks it into two halves.
“WHAT?!” Kiros questions as Aqua tosses the broken trident higher above them.
“Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: ORCA PACK!!” Aqua shouted as she sent giant killer whale-shaped water shots at Kiros’ trident and broke it into a thousand pieces.
Raki, Coral and Chel, except Ryujin, were all shocked after Aqua destroyed Kiros’ trident...
“Mechokku…!” Coral gasped.
But none of them were more shocked than Kiros. His jaw was gaping open, his eyes bugged out of his skull, and snot was dripping out of his nose while gasping in shock.
“Kiros’ trident looks weak compared to mine. It’s not even magically protective. That’s why Aqua can’t feel any power within it, and she breaks it.” Ryujin thoughts, impressed. “I have to admit, Aqua’s never cease to surprise me.”
Aqua charged at her foe, who shook his head as he tried to concentrate…
“Calm down and stay focused! If I can’t stab her body with my trident, I just have to use my Fish-Man Karate to finish her off! There’s no way I won’t be defeated by Ryujin’s-” Kiros thoughts desperately.
Before he could react in time, Aqua sent a hard whip with her tail to Kiros’s jaw, sending him crashing into the arena wall behind him!
“Wow…!” Chel gasped, amazed.
The Tiger Shark Pirates, some few of whom were recovered, were shocked to see that Aqua sent her flying.
“Lord Kiros! Are you okay? Let us help you to take down the princess!” The pirate shouted as Kiros stood back up on his feet, looking at his men.
“STAND CLEAR, MEN!!” Kiros yelled, causing his crew to gasp. “Just get out of this coliseum! This is the battle between me and the Mermaid Princess of Atlantis!”
“I don’t mind if you want to join in, boys.” Aqua said. “Unless you don’t follow your captain’s orders.”
And one glare at the crew, the pirates screamed in terror and started to run off the coliseum while leaving Aqua and Kiros.
“Whoa,” Raki said under his breath. “Just a fair warning from her glare, and they are all leaving.”
“Is Aqua actually a kind of goddess?” Chel asked, amazed.
“That’s… a good question.” Coral replied while shrugging.
“Goddess or not, she’s my daughter. And she and Kiros made a smart decision that all the pirates and the rest of us shall not interfere. All we have to do is wait until Kurao detonates all the dynamites and destroys the empire.” Ryujin said as Aqua looked at the pirates over one shoulder.
After all pirates have left the coliseum, now Aqua and Kiros can go all-out.
“Kiros, your men have left. Now it’s you and-” Aqua said as she turned to Kiros, as suddenly, “Huh?”
Kiros somehow vanished. Is he going to attack her from behind or in front or both sides? Suddenly, he reappeared from the right side, attempting to land a kick.
♫Dragon Ball Kai The Final Chapters - Super Saiyan Three (0:38)♫
But then suddenly… SHEEN!! Aqua’s right arm soon became black and hardened. THWAK!! She raised it, blocking Kiros’s kick without even glancing at him!
“What?!” Kiros questioned.
“Her arms turned black and became harder than steel?!” Chel questioned, surprised.
“That’s the power of Armament Haki.” Ryujin said.
Aqua throws her another Haki-imbued fist and hits Kiros’s cheek, and then swung her tail while it turned black and hardened. THWAM!! She slammed her tail into Kiros’s back, slamming him into the ground!
“Armament Haki allows the user to use their spirit life force to create an essence of invisible armor around themselves. That’s why Aqua’s spirit life force allowed her to use that power.” Ryujin explained.
“Aqua, that was awesome…!” Coral gasped, amazed.
Kiros growled as he stood up to his feet and glared at Aqua.
“Do you think you can defeat me?! SHARK ARROWS!!” he roared as he began to throw arrows of water at Aqua… who simply moved left and right, evading with little to no effort.
“She dodges them?! Does she see them coming before they can hit him?!” Chel questioned.
“That’s the power of Observation Haki!” Raki added.
Aqua kept dodging Kiros’s Shark Arrows before she swam towards him.
“Now, Fish-Man Karate!” Aqua shouted as she's pulling her arm and imbuing Haki. “TWO THOUSAND BRICK FIST!!”
As Aqua landed a hard punch, Kiros’s arms turned black and hardened, and, THWAK!! He's blocking Aqua’s attack, but a strong force makes him slide backwards.
“Nngnn…!” Kiros grunted. “Do you think you’re the only one who learned the Armament Haki? I’ve mastered it since a few years ago.”
“So, this is only just a warm-up, I assume?” Aqua asked.
“That’s the idea.” Kiros replied.
Raki, Coral and Chel’s eyes widen in shock and gaping in surprise, “W-WHAT?!”
“This is just a warm-up? Be careful, Aqua.” Ryujin whispered in surprise, then narrowed his eyebrow into his neutral expression.
♫One Piece Movie 5 OST - Greeting Swordsman♫
Meanwhile at Kiros’ empire, Kurao, Azure, Gamboge, and the slaves have planted the dynamites, almost all of them.
As for the pirates, were trying to stop them, they were already beaten by three Wotans, the hybrid species between giants and fish-men, who stood in front of them.
“Sorry, pirates, but this is off-limits!” The first Wotan said.
“If you want to stop us, try to pass first.” The second Wotan said as he stood in front of the pirates while crossing his arms.
“Or else you’ll get another beating.” The third Wotan added eagerly, grinding his fist into his palm.
The Tiger Shark Pirates were grunted silently as they’re trying to get up, but with no efforts they barely stood on their knees.
But then the giant sea sand worm roared in agony in the distance, and it was killed by the Ryujin Army with their magical tridents.
They were followed by Queen Athena who was followed by her husband earlier.
“Soldiers! Arrest those pirates!” Athena commands as the royal soldiers swim down, and pinned them down and put the shackles on their wrists.
Then she asked three Wotans. “What’s the situation, Wotans? And where’s Kurao?”
“I’m right here!” Kurao called as he passed through the Wotans and floated in front of her. “It’s been a long time, Queen Athena.”
“What’s your status? Where’s my family?” Athena asked.
“Oh, they were at the coliseum to rescue two axolotls. Aqua was ahead to face Kiros.” Kurao replied.
“Then I do not have to worry about my daughter. She’s been training for months and has mastered Haki. I think she handles Kiros all by herself.” Athena said while smiling.
“Your daughter is so special, ain’t she?” Kurao said. “Well, then. Hope you don’t mind if you want to help us with the demolition.”
“So you’re saying we shall take down the empire? Alright, then we’ll help you and the slaves the pirates captured to tear the empire down.” Athena said before she turned to her soldiers and asked. “Soldiers! Let’s give Kurao some a hand, shall we?”
The soldiers raise their fists in the air and shout. “YES!”
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - Clash of Kings (0:00 to 1:05)♫
Meanwhile at the coliseum, Aqua and Kiros charge at each other with a battle cry.
BAP! BAM!! Aqua and Kiros began to exchange blows with one another. None of them takes the damage from their Haki-imbued fists, until Kiros has started to gain the upper hand, for he sent Aqua backwards with every punch he landed on her.
BAP! POW!! Kiros punched Aqua right in the face, and then he punched her right in the stomach.
Raki continued biting his wings and stammered. “L-L-L-Look at them going all-out!”
King Ryujin grits his teeth, and mutters “I’ve never seen him fight like that before. He must have been training too.”
BAP! BAP!! POW!! Kiros continued to punch Aqua around like she was nothing, but still, the Mermaid Princess refused to submit. She just swam back at the pirate captain and landed a strong punch to his chest, but Kiros retaliated with a more powerful punch to Aqua’s stomach.
Fortunately, she blocked his fist with her crossed arms and pushed him back, and whipped into Kiros’ jaw with her Haki-imbued tail. Kiros roared as he attempted to rush Aqua once more, and Aqua grunted before she swam towards the Fish-Man again.
The two exchanged more punches, but Aqua managed to land a blow that was so hard, she sent him higher above the coliseum, and she swam after him.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - The Earth Will Shake (0:24 to 1:00)♫
“Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: FISH SCHOOL!!” Aqua shouted as she sent small fish water shots, lots of them, from her hands at Kiros and giving him minimum damage.
Annoyed, Kiros pushes the fish water shots away from him and glares down at Aqua with his vicious glare.
Shocked, Aqua noticed Kiros’s eyes; wide and bloodshot with slit pupils and a vicious snarl on his face. It almost looked like he had become a different creature, entirely.
“You wretched mermaid! You dare challenge me, the mighty Fish-Man?!” Kiros snarls as he dashed towards Aqua, tackles her towards the coliseum arena, and slams into the floor.
“AQUA!!” Raki shouted, worriedly.
“His eyes have changed…!” Ryujin gasped. “I’ve never seen anything like that before. He looked like another creature.”
As Aqua gets up, she sees Kiros dashing towards her, she manages to dodge him before he slams the ground. Then Kiros chased after Aqua who clings to him with palms and struggles.
“No wonder why you’re Ryujin’s daughter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t defeat me! He took my dignity, destiny, and future to become the King of Atlantis!” Kiros roared as he raised his arm and extended his claws.
“BLOOD FOR BLOOD!!!” Kiros roared, but as he swung his hand, Aqua delivered her headbutt after her forehead became black and shiny.
And she strikes her head against Kiros’ forehead which forces him to cancel his attack, and then strikes his jaw with her Haki-imbued fist.
And then smacks him with her Haki-imbued tail and sends him to the ground and glides into the arena wall.
KABOOM!! Behind Aqua, loud explosions are heard from a distance. Aqua heard that noise and turned around.
“What was that?” Aqua asked.
“They started the demolition, Aqua! Kurao did it!” Ryujin shouted victoriously while raising his fist into the air.
Kiros gets up, shakes his head as his eyes are back to normal and hears the explosion noises.
“What? What was that sound?” Kiros asked as he swam upwards to see where the explosion noises came from, then his eyes widened in horror.
“NO! NOT MY EMPIRE!!” Kiros cried, horrified. “NOOOO~!”
As he screamed, his empire started getting demolished by the dynamites which were planted by Kurao, Athena and the slaves.
Aqua swam to the same level where Kiros watched horrified at his fallen empire and said. “Your empire has fallen, Kiros. It’s over.”
Enraged, Kiros turned his head at Aqua, and roared. “NOW YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR!!! My empire of the Tiger Shark Pirates will not be brought down by my slaves, especially the Mermaid Princess like you!”
♫One Piece: Stampede - Fight Against the Unforgivable! ~STAMPEDE Ver.~♫
Kiros roared and charged towards Aqua who’s going to use her finishing move.
“Fish-Man Karate: SHARK BRICK FIST!!” She shouted as she thrust her fist and punched Kiros in the gut, causing him to cough up blood.
And then a shock wave passes through Kiros's back, and then finally Aqua sends the Tiger Shark Fish-Man flying at the rapid speed while Kiros screams in agony and terrified.
Afterward, Kiros crashed into his fallen empire which started to collapse down, and broke into a thousand pieces after it fell down to the seafloor.
Huff! Huff! Huff! Aqua’s breathing came out hard and labored, fists still raised. And then, she heaved a sigh of both relief and satisfaction, and smiled.
“This is for you… Coral.” Aqua said.
While hearing that, Coral stood, silently, for a moment… but then, her eyes began to well up with tears and a smile, small though it was, formed on her face.
"...Thank you...!" she whispered.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - It's the Golden Crown!♫
A bit later, the slaves burst into a roar of cheers, some even crying tears of joy. At long last, the symbol of their oppressors had been demolished. At long last...they were free.
No more gold-digging, and no more building the empire for Lord Kiros.
As for Kurao, he shook hands with Aqua and was impressed by her battle against Kiros.
“You’re doing a great job, Aqua. You've taken down the evil emperor.” Kurao said.
“Thanks, I’m doing this because he’s kidnapping my friend and making fake gemstones with the Gemstone Pearl.” Aqua said.
As Aqua said Gemstone Pearl, Raki carried the silver-colored pearl.
“So, what are we going to do with the Gemstone Pearl, Your Majesty?” Raki asks as Ryujin grabs the Gemstone Pearl.
“Since Kiros is defeated, we don’t need this cursed pearl that creates the phony gemstones anymore. I won’t allow any sea people around this world to use it for their greed. And for their own good, I’ll have to destroy it so they will not use it again.” Ryujin said.
“NEVER AGAIN!!” Ryujin tosses it higher into the air and shoots the energy beam from his magical trident and destroys it into a thousand pieces.
Aqua and Athena don't mind seeing him destroy the pearl; now nobody can make fake gemstones because of that.
“That was overkill.” Chel commented.
“Well I must admit it was a bit over the top.” Coral said.
“So, Kurao, what are you going to do next?” Aqua asked.
“Very simple. I’ve decided to keep this pit as our secret special army force base just in case when another evildoer is attempting to conquer Atlantis. So I’m staying here, and training them to extend your Royal Army.” Kurao said.
“That sounds like a great idea, Kurao. I’m looking forward to teaming up with you someday.” Ryujin said as he shook his hands with Kurao.
“Likewise, old friend. And don’t worry about the giant sand worm. Your wife and the Royal Soldiers already killed it, so it will not make any whirlpools to drag them here anymore.” Kurao said.
“That’s good to hear.” Ryujin said as Athena floated with her and hugged gently around him and smiled at him. “Thank you, Athena.”
Athena only nodded and chuckled seductively.
A bit later above the edge of the abyss, which is now renamed to “Sea Army Force Base Pit”, with Kiros’ men captured, Aqua, Ryujin, Raki and Athena were headed back to Atlantis.
But they were waiting for Coral who is about to say goodbye to Chel and her brothers.
“I wish I could have come with you, but… I don’t want to make Aqua worried about me again.” Coral said.
“I know, and I have to go with my brothers. Now that Aqua has brought down Kiros, my adventures are not over yet.” Chel said.
“Hey, come on, big sis. It’s time to go explore.” Azure said as Chel turned her head at her brothers.
“Yeah, and we’re going to find the real gold, not fake ones.” Gamboge said.
“Okay, okay, I’m coming, boys.” Chel said, and she turned to Coral. “Well, I suppose we should say goodbye.”
“I’m going to miss you, Chel…” Coral said, while bordering on crying, voice cracks.
“I’m going to miss you too, pinkie…” Chel said.
♫One Piece Movie 2 - Mother, Then Setting Off♫
Both axolotls embrace themselves into a hug, and rub their heads slowly, before they slowly pull away from each other.
“Goodbye…” Coral and Chel whispered before Chel turned away and swam to her brothers.
“Farewell, Coral! Farewell, Princess Aqua!” Azure and Gamboge called and waved their hands, and after Chel met up with them, they swam off in a different direction from Aqua and her family.
Coral’s lip quivers. She exhales and swims away towards Aqua, and hugged, then sobs quietly on her chest.
Aqua hugged her gently and soothes. “It’s okay, Coral. It’s okay.”
“Aqua… I love her.” Coral sniffed.
Aqua’s eyes widen in surprise, then she smiles and closes her eyes while comforting Coral while holding her around her; she was happy for her who found her girlfriend.
“I’m here…” Aqua whispered, while having tears in her eyes.
“Come, Aqua. Let’s go home.” Ryujin said, as Aqua looked at her father over one shoulder and nodded.
Then they swam off towards Atlantis while Chel stopped swimming and looked at them go, and shed her tears; she’s going to miss her love even though she met earlier.
Chel can feel Azure put his hand on her shoulder which makes the black axolotl turn to his blue brother.
“Big sis Chel, I can't help feeling that you should stay with Aqua.” Azure said.
“Come on, brothers, I know how you feel, but I can’t stay with her. I still have my parents and you to look after, helping my people and I… I…” Chel said as she turned slowly at Coral who swims with Aqua, side by side.
Even though Coral reconciled with Aqua and became friends with her again, she will never forget Chel, the female axolotl she loves.
“But you love her.” Gamboge said while Chellooked at her brothers and tearfully nodded.
“Go on…” Azure and Gamboge whispered while winking his eyes.
Chel smiles at her brothers and gives them a big hug, before she breaks her hug and looks at them and says, “Say hello to mom and dad for me.”
Azure and Gamboge nodded, and they left Chel who decided to live with Princess Aqua, but she wanted to be with Coral as long as she wished.
Chel swam towards Aqua and her royal family, and shouted joyfully. “CORAL!! CORAL!!”
A bit far away from Chel, Coral’s ear perked up and eyes widened in surprise and looked at her over one shoulder. Then she turned around, and was overjoyed to see Chel’s coming.
Then Coral swam to Chel while shouting tearfully, “CHEL!!”
After hearing Coral’s cheerful voice, Aqua and her family, and Raki turned around and saw Chel’s coming back amazed.
After they've come so close to each other, Coral and Chel hug while spinning. After they stopped spinning, they nuzzled their heads affectionately.
“Chel… Did you go with your brothers?” Coral asked.
“They know how I loved you, so I’ve decided to choose my new path for the future. I don’t just want to serve Princess Aqua. I just want to stay with you because… you’re my soulmate.” Chel said.
“If that’s okay for you?” Chel asked.
“Chel…” Coral gasped, silently, but happy too.
“Chel.” Aqua started thoughtfully. “I understand why you’re more than a friend to Coral. And I see why Coral loves you a lot. Her first adventure with you changes her a lot.”
Ryujin, Athena and Raki smile thoughtfully at Aqua and two axolotls.
“Coral, since you protected us from Kiros’ Water Shot… I’ll respect you. To show my gratitude, I told you once, and I say it again. You’re one of us.” Aqua said as she bows.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Chel said as she bows in front of the princess.
“Now go ahead, you two. We’ll catch you up later in the castle.” Aqua said.
“Thanks, Aqua.” Coral nodded, then took Chel’s hand. “And Chel… I’m so delighted to stay with me. And may I like to show you around the city?”
“Sure, I would like to know about Atlantis. Lead the way, pinkie.” Chel replied as she and Coral swam off ahead towards Atlantis, hand to hand.
Aqua was happy to see them being together, and whispered. “Coral, I’m so proud of you.”
As the royal family follows the two new lovers to Atlantis, there are more adventures for Aqua, and next time… it will make her soar in the skies…
TO BE CONTINUED…
Here's the seventh chapter of Aqua: Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.

Again, I'll add music tracks to feels like an old-fashioned and traditional Disney movie, and of course One Piece episodes.

Chapter 7 - Tiger Shark Pirates Part 3 - Lord Kiros
Written By: StarMermaid91
Based on the characters “One Piece” created and owned by:
Eiichiro Oda
♫One Piece Movie 3 OST - Usopp Boomerang!♫
At the Thief Abyss Pit’s Colosseum, the giant prehistoric octopus lifts its arm to squash Coral and Chel. Lucky for them, they dodge its arm and swim off.
“What are we gonna do?” Coral asked, worriedly.
“Keep on swimming! We may be tired out of it!” Chel replied, and then they split off to different directions.
Chel is swimming under the octopus while Coral swims over it, then they swim around it in circles.
But the octopus is not getting exhausted while trying to catch them with its long arms. Coral and Chel swam faster to escape from its clutches.
On the throne chair, Lord Kiros was amused to see two small sea amphibians swimming this fast.
“Heh… So that princess’ pet and the thief are so nimble. But their speed is not good enough for my big pet.” Kiros said as the octopus’ eye glows yellow. “He may be too big, but he’s very agile just like a dolphin.”
“It’s feeding time!” Kiros shouted as the giant octopus swam towards Chel and Coral who were swimming around the arena.
Coral and Chel tried to escape, but before they knew it, the giant octopus had painfully grabbed them and pulled them closer to their eyes, causing them to scream in pain!
“CHEL! WE GOTTA INFLATE OUR BODIES!!” Coral cried.
“I can’t…!” Chel wheezed. “It’s too strong for us! We can’t get out of this!”
“I am aware of what you two small axolotls are trying to do to exhaust my octopus. But that won’t work this time. And now I’ll make you go bye-bye! SHAHAHAHA!!” Kiros laughed as the octopus slowly pulled two axolotls towards its mouth.
“No…!” Chel wheezed. “This can’t end like this…!”
“AQUA!!” Coral cried. “HELP ME!!”
♫One Piece: Stampede - Luffy’s Seriousness♫
“Yoo-hoo~! Hey, you big bully!” A female voice called as the octopus looked up and saw Aqua who was high above it.
And she’s not alone, Raki’s with her too.
The Tiger Shark Pirates were shocked and surprised and cried, “WHAT?! PRINCESS AQUA IS HERE?!”
“Aqua! You’re here!” Coral cried.
Unlike his pirate crew who are at all pleased about this turn of events, Kiros grins expectantly, and says. “So she’s finally here. The daughter of Ryujin.”
“Why don't you pick on someone your own size?” Aqua teased while showing her confident grin. “Or even one-fourth your size, like me?”
The giant octopus reached its arms to catch the Mermaid Princess, but Aqua dodged them with her speed, and swam around the monster with her high speed.
As Aqua keeps swimming around it, the giant octopus’s arms try to reach her, but in the end they are somehow tied into a knot, effectively immobilizing it and falling to the ground.
Then it was forced to let go of Coral and Chel, while the pirates boos and whistles at Aqua who ruined the entertainment while the Mermaid Princess just ignored them.
“BOO!! HISS”
“CHEATER!!”
“YOU RUINED OUR ENTERTAINMENT!!”
But Kiros didn't mind; he found this mermaid interesting.
“So she defeated my octopus. No wonder why she looks like her mother, Athena.” Kiros thought while grinning.
♫One Piece Movie 6 - Anyone Who is Kind is a Hero♫
“Aqua!” Coral cried as she swam towards Aqua and hugged her.
“Oh, Coral. Thank God, you’re okay.” Aqua cried.
“I’m glad she’s safe.” Raki sighed in relief as Chel approached her.
“She’s okay, penguin. She’s just shaken after all the stuff happened to her.” Chel said.
“Oh, you must be Chel, right?” Raki asked before he cleared his throat. “Ahem. My name is Raki, the king’s advisor.”
“I’m so glad that you’re here, Aqua. I knew that you came to save us.” Coral sniffed.
“Coral, there’s something I need to tell you…” Aqua started as Coral looked at her. “I’m… I’m sorry for yelling at you because… I just don’t want you getting hurt by those pirates. When I saw you get hurt, my protective instincts over and… that makes me over-protective.”
“So, that’s the reason you’re not allowed me to leave the castle?” Coral asked, disbelieved.
“If anything bad happened to you again, I… I don’t know what to do.” Aqua said.
“Oh, Aqua…” Coral gasped silently, before she turned away and sighed regretfully. “I’m sorry for deliberately disobeying you. I’m just getting frustrated because we can not do anything to stop the pirates paying the people with the fake gemstones. That’s why I’m running away and why I was afraid to come home.”
“I… I want to show that I’m more than a pet… I just want to become a brave adventurer, but… in the end I was wrong, and it’s my fault that I didn’t listen to you.” Coral admitted.
“Coral…” Aqua gasped silently, then sighed. “I knew that you will be a brave adventurer someday… But you can’t do it alone. I’m just glad that you got new friends, especially Chel.”
As she said Chel’s name, Aqua turned her head to Chel and smiled at her while nodding her head while the black axolotl smiled at the Mermaid Princess.
“No matter where you’re going and when you decide to do something important, you'll always be my friend, and we’ll stick together to the end.” Aqua said while smiling at Coral who now has tears in her eyes.
“Friends stick together to the end…” Coral whispered, tearfully before she hugged Aqua. “I love you, Aqua!”
Aqua hugged Coral back while Chel and Raki smiled that they already reconciled together, and they’ve become friends again.
♫One Piece Movie 3 - Sanji vs. Snake♫
“How touching.” Kiros said, which alerted Aqua who looked up at her. “As I hate the sentimental moments between you two, I’m so pleased that you showed up, Princess Aqua.”
Aqua glared at Kiros while Coral floated beside her.
“Before your father is here… I shall at least execute you for now.” Kiros said as the Water Shot formed from his fingers. “Try to survive this… WATER SHOT!!”
Horrified, Coral gasped, and swam swiftly at Aqua and shouted. “LOOK OUT!!”
WHAP!! Kiros sent a bullet of water right at Aqua.
And just in time Chel tackles Aqua out of the way, and is knocked in the body by the Water Shot. She falls to the ground and slides against the arena wall.
“CHEL!!” Coral screamed as she and Raki swam over to her.
Chel lies unconsciously while Aqua’s eyes widen in shock.
“No…!” Aqua gasped.
“Well, looks like the little thief makes a bold move. Sacrificing herself to save the princess and her little pet.” Kiros chuckles, grimly.
“Aqua! Are you okay?” A male voice from King Ryujin who made it just in time after swimming over the audience.
“Father!” Aqua cried as he hugged him. “It’s Chel, she’s protected us from Kiros’ Water Shot.”
“Is that so?” Ryujin growls after he’s looking up at Kiros who grins widely and chuckles.
“So you’re finally here, Ryujin.” Kiros snarled.
♫One Piece Movie 4 OST - If You Live♫
Raki tries to feel Chel’s pulses in her arm, and he can feel it.
“Is she okay?” Ryujin asked after he and Aqua swam towards them.
“She’s okay. Her pulses are still normal. She’s one tough axolotl.” Raki said as Coral held Chel’s hand while trying to hold her tears back.
“Chel…” Coral sniffed as Chel slowly opened her eyes and looked at her.
“Are you okay, pinkie?” Chel asked while Coral hugged her.
“Oh, thank God!” Coral cried.
“As I told you before, and I said it again… My only wish is to serve the Mermaid Princess of Atlantis.” Chel said as she hugged her back and Aqua approached her.
“Chel…” Aqua started. “Thank you for saving us. Just don’t pull any more crazy stunts.”
“Well, let me tell you this…” Chel whispered. “People always do crazy things when they're in love.”
“In love? What are you-” Aqua asked before Ryujin started to shout at Kiros.
♫Dragon Ball Super: Broly - Frieza’s Wish - Another Five Centimeters♫
“Kiros! I know you’re up to no good over a thousand times! But this is way beyond the crime!” Ryujin shouted angrily.
“Yeah, a thousand times of crimes you committed!” Raki shouted after he swam to the king.
“You’re using the Gemstone Pearl to make fake gemstones to get not just food and weapons, but a lot of money to buy my kingdom. I won’t allow you to do such a shameful thing!” Ryujin shouted angrily.
“You have no shame at all!” Raki added.
“Hmph.” Kiros scoffed as he got up from his throne chair and approached the edge. “You’re right, Ryujin. I’m a pirate, and I have no shame; just be proud of it.”
“What do you mean? Explain yourself!” Ryujin demanded.
“Do you remember those days before Atlantis was sunk to the bottom of the ocean?” Kiros asked as he remembered his childhood. “I was born at the Lair of Thieves, and I was born as a thief. When I got older, I started to steal the money, food, and weapons to survive in the streets.”
“My life is perfect, until you and your queen, Athena, caught me red-handed. Like almost… how many times was it again?” Kiros continued as he held a finger to his face, and then made his mock realization. “Oh yes… Almost 20 times.”
“And then after your 25th time to capture me, your father, Raijin and King Perseus have decided to banish me into the depths of the ocean and never return.” Kiros continued.
“To get my revenge, I’ve decided to move into the Thief Abyss Pit, and there are lots of Tiger Shark Pirates in here. Instead of killing me, they welcomed me since they know that I’m a criminal just like them. And they even declared me as the captain of this crew. And that’s why I’ve kidnapped the strong mermen and Fish-men to build an empire. However, this whole place is not enough to rule all over the sea.” Kiros continued.
“And how did you get that Gemstone Pearl?” Raki asked.
“Oh, that? My crew found it within the cave. The pearl can create the small rock boulders into the pieces of fake gemstones to buy food, treasure, and the weapons. And soon when I got a lot of weapons and money, I decided to use them to buy your kingdom, King Ryujin.” Kiros said while Ryujin’s eyebrows narrowed down in rage.
“You monster…” Ryujin growled as his trident glowed lightning.
“SHAAHAHAHAHA! And today, the time has finally come. Thanks to those axolotls, I’ve finally lured you and your daughter in, this couldn't have worked out better if I planned it.” Kiros laughed, and then he pointed his men at the audience, who got up from their seats and unsheathed their swords.
“Look around at my men in the seats! There are 65,000 of my brothers who are looking forward to ruling the sea together! Oh, and one more thing I would like to tell. Unlike Arlong and Hody Jones, I am not interested in humans, even your human comrades in the Odyssey Kingdom, and am not going to kill them. No. I rather want to conquer the Kingdom of Atlantis, and become the next king.” Kiros declared.
Aqua lowered her head to the point where her eyes were hidden in the rim of her hair bangs.
“... So this is what you’re planning to do?” Aqua whispered.
“What a brute…!” Chel growled as Aqua swam away.
“Aqua?” Coral asked, worriedly as Aqua swam past Ryujin and Raki.
“Father, Raki. Stay with Coral and Chel. I’ll handle this.” Aqua said.
“What?! All by yourself?!” Raki asked the Mermaid Princess. “Are you going to fight against 65,000 pirates all by yourself?”
“I’ll be fine, just go.” Aqua said as Ryujin’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Aqua…” Ryujin muttered, surprised, then his eyebrow narrowed to his neutral expression. “As you wish, my dear. But be careful.”
As Ryujin turned around and swam back to Coral and Chel, Raki looked worriedly at Aqua, then looked up at Kiros.
“Oh, one more question, Kiros? Maybe if you can send one of your crewmates to fight Aqua before she fights another one? I don’t know, maybe it’s against the rules!” Raki asked.
“Hmhmhmhm…” Kiros chuckles, muffled. “I don’t think so.”
Then he bent his head down at Aqua first for a few seconds, then looked up at Ryujin. “I like your daughter’s spunk. It sounds like she accepted my challenge.”
“Don’t push your own luck, Kiros!” Ryujin warned.
“Oh, I wouldn’t do that if I were your daughter.” Kiros said while grinning grimly as his crewmates leaped into the coliseum floor and grins wickedly at Aqua.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - Bye-Bye♫
“While you ruled your kingdom, I built my army of pirates. Your Atlanteans are the last race in the Kingdom of Atlantis, which means everything the light touches belongs to me.” Kiros declared.
“There will be one ruler. One Atlantean King.” Kiros declared once more, before he started to sing.
Kiros:
♫You say you're the king
But you sat around in the shade
Out of shape, unafraid♫
The scene shifts into the dark night with a moon, and Kiros cuts the moon in half with his trident before the scene shifts back to the coliseum arena.
Kiros:
♫The moon cuts a path
Through the sky
By night or by day
It doesn't obey
And neither do I♫
Then he glares at Ryujin while he grins and points at the king.
Kiros:
♫Long ago, you took my dignity
And now, I’ll took your divinity♫
Then the first pirates stamp their feet to the beat of the music of the first verse while they march around Aqua, who’s still lowered her head, but she can hear their footsteps.
Kiros:
♫'Cause I'm gonna be
The last thing you see
Before you go bye-bye
There you go, bye-bye
I rule all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go bye-bye
I make you go bye-bye♫
While Kiros says “bye-bye” parts, he mocks Ryujin and Aqua while waving goodbyes, but doesn't scare ‘em. Then Kiros clenched his fist in the air, then released it while looking above the surface beyond the pit.
Kiros:
♫Everything in my clutches, ha!
Bye-bye
Everything the light touches♫
Then he glares at them while he keeps singing.
Kiros:
♫The Circle of Life is a lie
A pretty way to say there are predators and prey♫
The scene shifts into the flock of giant petrels who were flying above the ocean then the scene shifts back to Kiros who paces back and forward while dancing literally.
Kiros:
♫That flock of giant petrels up high
They keep stealing glances
They don't like your chances
And neither do I♫
Kiros looks down at his pirate crew, who all jump down to the ground and they already surrender Aqua.
Kiros:
♫I run my pride
You run and hide♫
Again, the pirates stamp their feet to the beat of the music of the second verse while they march around Aqua one more time.
Kiros:
♫'Cause I'm gonna be
The last thing you see
Before you go bye-bye
There you go, bye-bye
I rule all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go bye-bye
I make you go bye-bye♫
Once again, Kiros says “bye-bye” parts, he mocks Ryujin and Aqua while waving goodbyes, still not scaring them, but Raki bites his wings nervously. Coral, Ryujin and Chel looked at Kiros with their angry glare.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye
Your kingdom is mine
If I'm the last of my line
I must be strong♫
When Kiros says the “strong” lyric part, the pirates start to sing this part while preparing their rifles.
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫He rules all the sea
You bow on your knee
Or else you go♫
And then Kiros joined in.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye♫
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫Bye-bye♫
Kiros:
♫I make you go♫
Kiros, Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫Bye-bye♫
Tiger Shark Pirates:
♫So long♫
When the pirates sing the “so long” part, Kiros makes his vocalizing effects.
Kiros:
♫Bye-bye♫
And after that, the Tiger Shark Pirates roared as they charged at Aqua.
“AAAAAH!” Raki screamed as he hid behind King Ryujin and covered his eyes with his wings. “I CAN’T LOOK!”
“Aqua…!” Coral gasped, horrified as she hugged Chel.
The Tiger Shark Pirates hollered and roared as they went in for the kill.
“This Mermaid Princess is all mine!!”
“No, she’s mine!!”
“We’ll slice that head of yours right off!!”
“SHAHAHAHAHA!” Kiros cackled. “Bye-bye, Princess Aqua!”
♫One Piece OST: Overtaken - EPIC VERSION (Drums of Liberation)♫
Suddenly, Aqua raised her head up and her pupils expanded. A huge, unseen force with thin white and blue energy that crackled, pulsated from her, stopping at the horde in their tracks! Even Kiros seemed to tremble from this strange energy.
“Huh?” Kiros asked.
All 65,000 pirates, who froze in their tracks before, fell on the ground, one-by-one, with a thud, foaming at the mouth!
Kiros gasped silently at this, while Chel’s eyes went in shock.
“What was that?” Chel asked.
“That was… Conqueror’s Haki,” said Coral, amazed.
“Y-Your Majesty…!” Raki stammered as his jaw fell on the floor. “S-S-She knocks out all 65,000 pirates with one burst of Haki!”
“Well, of course,” Ryujin said. “I wouldn’t expect anything better from her. I guess her training at Kung-Fu Dugongs Dojo was worth it, and she unlocked her three powers of Haki.”
“Captain Kiros!” Aqua shouted, shouted, pointing at Kiros. “I’ve come from the Kingdom of Atlantis with the sole purpose of defeating you!”
“What?” Kiros questioned.
“You use the Gemstone Pearl to create the phony gemstones to get all the stuff you buy, and you’re going to buy Atlantis, and you’ll stop at nothing to get what you want, “Aqua said, “I will not forgive anyone who disrupts the peaceful lives of citizens.”
“In the name of the Kingdom of Atlantis, I, Princess Aqua, challenge you to battle!” Aqua shouted.
With a frustrated scoff, Kiros jumped off the edge and landed in front of Aqua.
“For a mermaid, you’ve got guts, take all my men down with your Conqueror’s Haki, and then challenge me to a battle, “Kiros said, “You must have a lot of confidence in your own powers.”
“However, you don’t have a chance against me.” Kiros said as he wielded his trident. “Not even Ryujin’s daughter could possibly defeat me. After all, I’ve been waiting for a long time to take down the royal family!”
“You're welcome to try.” Aqua said as she made a “come here” gesture with her point finger and grins.
“Grr! Alright! Let’s see if you can dodge my faithful trident! One pierce through your body, and it’s GAME OVER!!” Kiros shouted and launched his trident forward at Aqua.
But Aqua’s eyes glow blue and simply move left, evading with little to no effort, making Kiros miss her, and then Aqua grabs his trident and breaks it into two halves.
“WHAT?!” Kiros questions as Aqua tosses the broken trident higher above them.
“Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: ORCA PACK!!” Aqua shouted as she sent giant killer whale-shaped water shots at Kiros’ trident and broke it into a thousand pieces.
Raki, Coral and Chel, except Ryujin, were all shocked after Aqua destroyed Kiros’ trident...
“Mechokku…!” Coral gasped.
But none of them were more shocked than Kiros. His jaw was gaping open, his eyes bugged out of his skull, and snot was dripping out of his nose while gasping in shock.
“Kiros’ trident looks weak compared to mine. It’s not even magically protective. That’s why Aqua can’t feel any power within it, and she breaks it.” Ryujin thoughts, impressed. “I have to admit, Aqua’s never cease to surprise me.”
Aqua charged at her foe, who shook his head as he tried to concentrate…
“Calm down and stay focused! If I can’t stab her body with my trident, I just have to use my Fish-Man Karate to finish her off! There’s no way I won’t be defeated by Ryujin’s-” Kiros thoughts desperately.
Before he could react in time, Aqua sent a hard whip with her tail to Kiros’s jaw, sending him crashing into the arena wall behind him!
“Wow…!” Chel gasped, amazed.
The Tiger Shark Pirates, some few of whom were recovered, were shocked to see that Aqua sent her flying.
“Lord Kiros! Are you okay? Let us help you to take down the princess!” The pirate shouted as Kiros stood back up on his feet, looking at his men.
“STAND CLEAR, MEN!!” Kiros yelled, causing his crew to gasp. “Just get out of this coliseum! This is the battle between me and the Mermaid Princess of Atlantis!”
“I don’t mind if you want to join in, boys.” Aqua said. “Unless you don’t follow your captain’s orders.”
And one glare at the crew, the pirates screamed in terror and started to run off the coliseum while leaving Aqua and Kiros.
“Whoa,” Raki said under his breath. “Just a fair warning from her glare, and they are all leaving.”
“Is Aqua actually a kind of goddess?” Chel asked, amazed.
“That’s… a good question.” Coral replied while shrugging.
“Goddess or not, she’s my daughter. And she and Kiros made a smart decision that all the pirates and the rest of us shall not interfere. All we have to do is wait until Kurao detonates all the dynamites and destroys the empire.” Ryujin said as Aqua looked at the pirates over one shoulder.
After all pirates have left the coliseum, now Aqua and Kiros can go all-out.
“Kiros, your men have left. Now it’s you and-” Aqua said as she turned to Kiros, as suddenly, “Huh?”
Kiros somehow vanished. Is he going to attack her from behind or in front or both sides? Suddenly, he reappeared from the right side, attempting to land a kick.
♫Dragon Ball Kai The Final Chapters - Super Saiyan Three (0:38)♫
But then suddenly… SHEEN!! Aqua’s right arm soon became black and hardened. THWAK!! She raised it, blocking Kiros’s kick without even glancing at him!
“What?!” Kiros questioned.
“Her arms turned black and became harder than steel?!” Chel questioned, surprised.
“That’s the power of Armament Haki.” Ryujin said.
Aqua throws her another Haki-imbued fist and hits Kiros’s cheek, and then swung her tail while it turned black and hardened. THWAM!! She slammed her tail into Kiros’s back, slamming him into the ground!
“Armament Haki allows the user to use their spirit life force to create an essence of invisible armor around themselves. That’s why Aqua’s spirit life force allowed her to use that power.” Ryujin explained.
“Aqua, that was awesome…!” Coral gasped, amazed.
Kiros growled as he stood up to his feet and glared at Aqua.
“Do you think you can defeat me?! SHARK ARROWS!!” he roared as he began to throw arrows of water at Aqua… who simply moved left and right, evading with little to no effort.
“She dodges them?! Does she see them coming before they can hit him?!” Chel questioned.
“That’s the power of Observation Haki!” Raki added.
Aqua kept dodging Kiros’s Shark Arrows before she swam towards him.
“Now, Fish-Man Karate!” Aqua shouted as she's pulling her arm and imbuing Haki. “TWO THOUSAND BRICK FIST!!”
As Aqua landed a hard punch, Kiros’s arms turned black and hardened, and, THWAK!! He's blocking Aqua’s attack, but a strong force makes him slide backwards.
“Nngnn…!” Kiros grunted. “Do you think you’re the only one who learned the Armament Haki? I’ve mastered it since a few years ago.”
“So, this is only just a warm-up, I assume?” Aqua asked.
“That’s the idea.” Kiros replied.
Raki, Coral and Chel’s eyes widen in shock and gaping in surprise, “W-WHAT?!”
“This is just a warm-up? Be careful, Aqua.” Ryujin whispered in surprise, then narrowed his eyebrow into his neutral expression.

Meanwhile at Kiros’ empire, Kurao, Azure, Gamboge, and the slaves have planted the dynamites, almost all of them.
As for the pirates, were trying to stop them, they were already beaten by three Wotans, the hybrid species between giants and fish-men, who stood in front of them.
“Sorry, pirates, but this is off-limits!” The first Wotan said.
“If you want to stop us, try to pass first.” The second Wotan said as he stood in front of the pirates while crossing his arms.
“Or else you’ll get another beating.” The third Wotan added eagerly, grinding his fist into his palm.
The Tiger Shark Pirates were grunted silently as they’re trying to get up, but with no efforts they barely stood on their knees.
But then the giant sea sand worm roared in agony in the distance, and it was killed by the Ryujin Army with their magical tridents.
They were followed by Queen Athena who was followed by her husband earlier.
“Soldiers! Arrest those pirates!” Athena commands as the royal soldiers swim down, and pinned them down and put the shackles on their wrists.
Then she asked three Wotans. “What’s the situation, Wotans? And where’s Kurao?”
“I’m right here!” Kurao called as he passed through the Wotans and floated in front of her. “It’s been a long time, Queen Athena.”
“What’s your status? Where’s my family?” Athena asked.
“Oh, they were at the coliseum to rescue two axolotls. Aqua was ahead to face Kiros.” Kurao replied.
“Then I do not have to worry about my daughter. She’s been training for months and has mastered Haki. I think she handles Kiros all by herself.” Athena said while smiling.
“Your daughter is so special, ain’t she?” Kurao said. “Well, then. Hope you don’t mind if you want to help us with the demolition.”
“So you’re saying we shall take down the empire? Alright, then we’ll help you and the slaves the pirates captured to tear the empire down.” Athena said before she turned to her soldiers and asked. “Soldiers! Let’s give Kurao some a hand, shall we?”
The soldiers raise their fists in the air and shout. “YES!”
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - Clash of Kings (0:00 to 1:05)♫
Meanwhile at the coliseum, Aqua and Kiros charge at each other with a battle cry.
BAP! BAM!! Aqua and Kiros began to exchange blows with one another. None of them takes the damage from their Haki-imbued fists, until Kiros has started to gain the upper hand, for he sent Aqua backwards with every punch he landed on her.
BAP! POW!! Kiros punched Aqua right in the face, and then he punched her right in the stomach.
Raki continued biting his wings and stammered. “L-L-L-Look at them going all-out!”
King Ryujin grits his teeth, and mutters “I’ve never seen him fight like that before. He must have been training too.”
BAP! BAP!! POW!! Kiros continued to punch Aqua around like she was nothing, but still, the Mermaid Princess refused to submit. She just swam back at the pirate captain and landed a strong punch to his chest, but Kiros retaliated with a more powerful punch to Aqua’s stomach.
Fortunately, she blocked his fist with her crossed arms and pushed him back, and whipped into Kiros’ jaw with her Haki-imbued tail. Kiros roared as he attempted to rush Aqua once more, and Aqua grunted before she swam towards the Fish-Man again.
The two exchanged more punches, but Aqua managed to land a blow that was so hard, she sent him higher above the coliseum, and she swam after him.
♫Mufasa: The Lion King - The Earth Will Shake (0:24 to 1:00)♫
“Mermaid Jujutsu - Water Heart: FISH SCHOOL!!” Aqua shouted as she sent small fish water shots, lots of them, from her hands at Kiros and giving him minimum damage.
Annoyed, Kiros pushes the fish water shots away from him and glares down at Aqua with his vicious glare.
Shocked, Aqua noticed Kiros’s eyes; wide and bloodshot with slit pupils and a vicious snarl on his face. It almost looked like he had become a different creature, entirely.
“You wretched mermaid! You dare challenge me, the mighty Fish-Man?!” Kiros snarls as he dashed towards Aqua, tackles her towards the coliseum arena, and slams into the floor.
“AQUA!!” Raki shouted, worriedly.
“His eyes have changed…!” Ryujin gasped. “I’ve never seen anything like that before. He looked like another creature.”
As Aqua gets up, she sees Kiros dashing towards her, she manages to dodge him before he slams the ground. Then Kiros chased after Aqua who clings to him with palms and struggles.
“No wonder why you’re Ryujin’s daughter, but that doesn’t mean you can’t defeat me! He took my dignity, destiny, and future to become the King of Atlantis!” Kiros roared as he raised his arm and extended his claws.
“BLOOD FOR BLOOD!!!” Kiros roared, but as he swung his hand, Aqua delivered her headbutt after her forehead became black and shiny.
And she strikes her head against Kiros’ forehead which forces him to cancel his attack, and then strikes his jaw with her Haki-imbued fist.
And then smacks him with her Haki-imbued tail and sends him to the ground and glides into the arena wall.
KABOOM!! Behind Aqua, loud explosions are heard from a distance. Aqua heard that noise and turned around.
“What was that?” Aqua asked.
“They started the demolition, Aqua! Kurao did it!” Ryujin shouted victoriously while raising his fist into the air.
Kiros gets up, shakes his head as his eyes are back to normal and hears the explosion noises.
“What? What was that sound?” Kiros asked as he swam upwards to see where the explosion noises came from, then his eyes widened in horror.
“NO! NOT MY EMPIRE!!” Kiros cried, horrified. “NOOOO~!”
As he screamed, his empire started getting demolished by the dynamites which were planted by Kurao, Athena and the slaves.
Aqua swam to the same level where Kiros watched horrified at his fallen empire and said. “Your empire has fallen, Kiros. It’s over.”
Enraged, Kiros turned his head at Aqua, and roared. “NOW YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR!!! My empire of the Tiger Shark Pirates will not be brought down by my slaves, especially the Mermaid Princess like you!”
♫One Piece: Stampede - Fight Against the Unforgivable! ~STAMPEDE Ver.~♫
Kiros roared and charged towards Aqua who’s going to use her finishing move.
“Fish-Man Karate: SHARK BRICK FIST!!” She shouted as she thrust her fist and punched Kiros in the gut, causing him to cough up blood.
And then a shock wave passes through Kiros's back, and then finally Aqua sends the Tiger Shark Fish-Man flying at the rapid speed while Kiros screams in agony and terrified.
Afterward, Kiros crashed into his fallen empire which started to collapse down, and broke into a thousand pieces after it fell down to the seafloor.
Huff! Huff! Huff! Aqua’s breathing came out hard and labored, fists still raised. And then, she heaved a sigh of both relief and satisfaction, and smiled.
“This is for you… Coral.” Aqua said.
While hearing that, Coral stood, silently, for a moment… but then, her eyes began to well up with tears and a smile, small though it was, formed on her face.
"...Thank you...!" she whispered.
♫One Piece Movie 7 - It's the Golden Crown!♫
A bit later, the slaves burst into a roar of cheers, some even crying tears of joy. At long last, the symbol of their oppressors had been demolished. At long last...they were free.
No more gold-digging, and no more building the empire for Lord Kiros.
As for Kurao, he shook hands with Aqua and was impressed by her battle against Kiros.
“You’re doing a great job, Aqua. You've taken down the evil emperor.” Kurao said.
“Thanks, I’m doing this because he’s kidnapping my friend and making fake gemstones with the Gemstone Pearl.” Aqua said.
As Aqua said Gemstone Pearl, Raki carried the silver-colored pearl.
“So, what are we going to do with the Gemstone Pearl, Your Majesty?” Raki asks as Ryujin grabs the Gemstone Pearl.
“Since Kiros is defeated, we don’t need this cursed pearl that creates the phony gemstones anymore. I won’t allow any sea people around this world to use it for their greed. And for their own good, I’ll have to destroy it so they will not use it again.” Ryujin said.
“NEVER AGAIN!!” Ryujin tosses it higher into the air and shoots the energy beam from his magical trident and destroys it into a thousand pieces.
Aqua and Athena don't mind seeing him destroy the pearl; now nobody can make fake gemstones because of that.
“That was overkill.” Chel commented.
“Well I must admit it was a bit over the top.” Coral said.
“So, Kurao, what are you going to do next?” Aqua asked.
“Very simple. I’ve decided to keep this pit as our secret special army force base just in case when another evildoer is attempting to conquer Atlantis. So I’m staying here, and training them to extend your Royal Army.” Kurao said.
“That sounds like a great idea, Kurao. I’m looking forward to teaming up with you someday.” Ryujin said as he shook his hands with Kurao.
“Likewise, old friend. And don’t worry about the giant sand worm. Your wife and the Royal Soldiers already killed it, so it will not make any whirlpools to drag them here anymore.” Kurao said.
“That’s good to hear.” Ryujin said as Athena floated with her and hugged gently around him and smiled at him. “Thank you, Athena.”
Athena only nodded and chuckled seductively.
A bit later above the edge of the abyss, which is now renamed to “Sea Army Force Base Pit”, with Kiros’ men captured, Aqua, Ryujin, Raki and Athena were headed back to Atlantis.
But they were waiting for Coral who is about to say goodbye to Chel and her brothers.
“I wish I could have come with you, but… I don’t want to make Aqua worried about me again.” Coral said.
“I know, and I have to go with my brothers. Now that Aqua has brought down Kiros, my adventures are not over yet.” Chel said.
“Hey, come on, big sis. It’s time to go explore.” Azure said as Chel turned her head at her brothers.
“Yeah, and we’re going to find the real gold, not fake ones.” Gamboge said.
“Okay, okay, I’m coming, boys.” Chel said, and she turned to Coral. “Well, I suppose we should say goodbye.”
“I’m going to miss you, Chel…” Coral said, while bordering on crying, voice cracks.
“I’m going to miss you too, pinkie…” Chel said.
♫One Piece Movie 2 - Mother, Then Setting Off♫
Both axolotls embrace themselves into a hug, and rub their heads slowly, before they slowly pull away from each other.
“Goodbye…” Coral and Chel whispered before Chel turned away and swam to her brothers.
“Farewell, Coral! Farewell, Princess Aqua!” Azure and Gamboge called and waved their hands, and after Chel met up with them, they swam off in a different direction from Aqua and her family.
Coral’s lip quivers. She exhales and swims away towards Aqua, and hugged, then sobs quietly on her chest.
Aqua hugged her gently and soothes. “It’s okay, Coral. It’s okay.”
“Aqua… I love her.” Coral sniffed.
Aqua’s eyes widen in surprise, then she smiles and closes her eyes while comforting Coral while holding her around her; she was happy for her who found her girlfriend.
“I’m here…” Aqua whispered, while having tears in her eyes.
“Come, Aqua. Let’s go home.” Ryujin said, as Aqua looked at her father over one shoulder and nodded.
Then they swam off towards Atlantis while Chel stopped swimming and looked at them go, and shed her tears; she’s going to miss her love even though she met earlier.
Chel can feel Azure put his hand on her shoulder which makes the black axolotl turn to his blue brother.
“Big sis Chel, I can't help feeling that you should stay with Aqua.” Azure said.
“Come on, brothers, I know how you feel, but I can’t stay with her. I still have my parents and you to look after, helping my people and I… I…” Chel said as she turned slowly at Coral who swims with Aqua, side by side.
Even though Coral reconciled with Aqua and became friends with her again, she will never forget Chel, the female axolotl she loves.
“But you love her.” Gamboge said while Chellooked at her brothers and tearfully nodded.
“Go on…” Azure and Gamboge whispered while winking his eyes.
Chel smiles at her brothers and gives them a big hug, before she breaks her hug and looks at them and says, “Say hello to mom and dad for me.”
Azure and Gamboge nodded, and they left Chel who decided to live with Princess Aqua, but she wanted to be with Coral as long as she wished.
Chel swam towards Aqua and her royal family, and shouted joyfully. “CORAL!! CORAL!!”
A bit far away from Chel, Coral’s ear perked up and eyes widened in surprise and looked at her over one shoulder. Then she turned around, and was overjoyed to see Chel’s coming.
Then Coral swam to Chel while shouting tearfully, “CHEL!!”
After hearing Coral’s cheerful voice, Aqua and her family, and Raki turned around and saw Chel’s coming back amazed.
After they've come so close to each other, Coral and Chel hug while spinning. After they stopped spinning, they nuzzled their heads affectionately.
“Chel… Did you go with your brothers?” Coral asked.
“They know how I loved you, so I’ve decided to choose my new path for the future. I don’t just want to serve Princess Aqua. I just want to stay with you because… you’re my soulmate.” Chel said.
“If that’s okay for you?” Chel asked.
“Chel…” Coral gasped, silently, but happy too.
“Chel.” Aqua started thoughtfully. “I understand why you’re more than a friend to Coral. And I see why Coral loves you a lot. Her first adventure with you changes her a lot.”
Ryujin, Athena and Raki smile thoughtfully at Aqua and two axolotls.
“Coral, since you protected us from Kiros’ Water Shot… I’ll respect you. To show my gratitude, I told you once, and I say it again. You’re one of us.” Aqua said as she bows.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Chel said as she bows in front of the princess.
“Now go ahead, you two. We’ll catch you up later in the castle.” Aqua said.
“Thanks, Aqua.” Coral nodded, then took Chel’s hand. “And Chel… I’m so delighted to stay with me. And may I like to show you around the city?”
“Sure, I would like to know about Atlantis. Lead the way, pinkie.” Chel replied as she and Coral swam off ahead towards Atlantis, hand to hand.
Aqua was happy to see them being together, and whispered. “Coral, I’m so proud of you.”
As the royal family follows the two new lovers to Atlantis, there are more adventures for Aqua, and next time… it will make her soar in the skies…
TO BE CONTINUED…
