144 Lorean Unleashed (2/2)

I fumed in my mind, they had taken it too far. They could already consider it a blessing that I had not decided to go ballistic on their ship, the gall it took to continue shooting made me go almost completely mad with rage. If it were not for the heaviness that I felt in his arms, I would have already lost his mind in my overwhelming anger.

With each thump that I heard behind him I could feel my temper flare, those bullets were being aimed at me! At My family!

Suddenly I could feel the air part behind me, a chilling feeling quivering its way up my spine as a terrifying presence made itself known to my Observation Haki.

In one motion, I twisted around. My face barely scraping against the ground as I avoided a punch that I had only just barely felt coming.

The glimpse of white that I saw, did almost nothing to quell the volcanic infuriation that I held within me. My rage seemed to bellow in my head as I saw the hint of white and gold that formed the attire of a Marine Vice Admiral, the same apparel that Borsolino had worn as he assaulted my crewmates.

As I took a few steps back I gazed at my assailant.

It was a marine. A relatively tall man with a wide chest and a band of white hair that coloured his otherwise military hairdo. The coat that most in his position wore was conspicuously absent, flapping with a dull tremble in the air behind him.

The man glared at me, a deep sense of frustration in his eyes as he stared unblinking into my eyes.

I felt literal vitriol bubble through my throat as a dull and mechanical red seemed to overcome my vision. Slowly I steadied my position a deep breath rasping through my dry mouth as I stared at the man before me.

”What do you want Marine?” I called out venom dripping off my tone as I beheld the bulky man.

”I can't let you leave, civilian. Unfortunately I shall have to detain you here.” he called out as he prepared his stance. His hands going black almost instantly as he dropped into a low guard.

”Hoh~ Quite full of yourself aren't you. Old Man!” I bit out my lips curling into a purely visceral smile as I slowly laid my crewmates at the foot of the tree beside me.

With quick movements I had my dagger at the ready in both hands. A wicked black curling off their surface as I breathed out through my nose.

I was going to have to make this quick it seems.
