《The Legend Of One Piece: A Journey Through Divided Seas》4: The Town Circle's Statue
Advertisement
Eloia's trip down memory lane is interrupted when she senses something approaching her from the side. She instinctively tosses her head back as the sharp end of a needle manages to tickle past the end of her chin. Dozens more fly towards her and she manages to Instinctively dodge them. She scans around the area looking for the attacker as she senses an attack coming from behind her.
"More punch!" A voice approaches her from behind.
She turns around and sees a fist increasing bigger in size and speed moving towards her. It lands a hit on her, striking her through the statue. She lays on the ground, clenching onto the sharp pain throbbing in her rib cage. The fountain has been completely destroyed and she is soaking wet.
Eloia looks up in realization at another attack coming to strike her. This time, she's able to see the person clearly coming from above her. In amazement his whole body increases in size. He looks like a giant. He slams his body on top of Eloia crashing right into her, giving her no time to run. The ground beneath them caves in and Eloia is no longer in view. The town circle's center is completely destroyed.
"Brother Michael, I think you may have done too much." A silhouette in the distance approaches in laughter. She twirls a pin around her finger.
"I finally got the annoying roach, I think boss will be happy, my sister Catherine!" He exclaims.
He then pauses, something has startled him.
"Is everything alright, Brother..?"
Catherine approaches them closer and sees a painful look on his face. His body then starts to hover over the ground and Eloia is back in view completely lifting him up by both hands. She tosses him to the side and his huge body lands into a building completely destroying it. Defeated in the wreckage he returns back to his normal size.

Eloia pats herself off and shrugs off the shock of the attack.
Great, now i'm all wet. Eloia takes off her jacket soaking and tosses it to the side.
"How.. did you!.." The lady looks at her alarmed.
Eloia cracks her neck up and down and waits for Catherines next move. A serious expression is seen upon her face.
Catherine lifts her arm and looks at the watch on her wrist, her facial expression shifts into a sly smile.
"It should be anytime now.."
Eloia begins to feel nauseous. She starts stumbling as everything around her begins to darken and finally, her body loses strength and she passes out onto the floor. Dozens of men in suits approach to collect her.
"I only needed one of these to graze her skin, her fate was sealed soon after. Well, at least now Boss will be happy." She gives a cheerful smile.
"Take her to Captain Jack, he will know what to do with her. The rest of you come collect my twin brother, he's heavily injured." She says.
Cloud finally arrives at the town circle.
Well, no mistake, she was here. He instantly notices her jacket lying on the ground and sits his hands at the top of his hips examining the mess that surrounded him. His attention shifts towards the left overs of the statue.
Shanks, huh? He smiles. The bust of the statue was still intact while the fountain that surrounded it was completely destroyed. Something in the bust of the statue catches his eye as he moves closer and sits down to examine it.
"Not all treasure is silver and gold.." Were the words engraved at the very bottom of the bust. Curious, Cloud begins to knock around on the bust of the statue as suddenly a hollow sound returns from one side. He makes a fist and punches through shattering the bust completely. A smile grows on his face as he stares at the straw hat that sits in front of him.

Exhuman
If superpowers appeared today, what might the future look like? In a future which has endured nuclear wars, people rarely wake up one day with supernatural powers, transforming an innocent life into a walking apocalypse. Shunned and feared, these Exhumans are often violent, ever misunderstood, and always dangerous. In this world unfolds the dark story of Athan Ashton, an 18-year old with a football scholarship who wakes up to find himself a lightning-powered Exhuman. Following a failed imprisonment and execution, he is exiled to the wilds, ostracized from all he’s even known. Like most, Athan never questioned society's view of Exhumans, buying the public line that they are selfish and a danger, fit only to be reported and dispatched. But living on the other side, Athan begins to discover why Exhumans go bad, and begins the impossible task of becoming more than just his powers. Athan is dedicated to use his Exhumanity only for good, but is that enough to survive in a world where his very existence is a crime?
