《Reincarnated As A Crocodile》Chapter 23: To War Part 1
Advertisement
"Wait, Gaul, we are sorry. Please spare me!" The commanders of the bases that protected the shield were the only ones to make it back to the city.
The door closed behind them as the Ape King settled back on his throne. "You just can't get any good help these days…" Gaul muttered, shaking his head in disgust. The disgusting, hairy wart-covered enormous ape with one eye as a green shining jewel. Several scars run across his demented face, wearing a purple horned helmet that looks very similar to a Viking's helmet and power armour. He wields a pair of scimitar swords and a long staff brimming with magic.
Gaul was not worried about his main forces fighting some measling goblins. Today was an important day, after all. His army should handle 90 goblins.
It was such a perfect day for a parade, mused the Ape King, dark general of dark armies and ruler of the Ape army. Of course, eighth month day 25 was always a good day, the weathermen having worked overtime to create picturesque sunny skies and gentle breezes for the Cadets' March.
After all, it wouldn't do for something as simple as rain to spoil the annual spectacle. Said spectacle now unfolded below him as millions of cadets, aged between levels sixteen and seventeen, marched through the Jungwong city streets. He had just given a speech on the events that now unfolded across the massive territory he controlled, his voice being broadcast to every corner of his city and heard by billions of souls, all of whom already knew exactly what was going on.
All around the city, and on every single street, every single primate aged between sixteen and seventeen now marched to their local launch port, nearly two billion souls destined to follow in the footsteps of their mothers and fathers. Military service was mandatory for the ape race. The only ones who avoided the draft were the very few cripples who could not be healed even by modern medical science or mystical science and the few prodigies whom the Research and Development Bureau took an interest in. No matter their parents, gender or social status, everyone else went into the military.
"I wonder when the enemy will attack." Gaul thought as he watched his future pawns match through his city. They would march out from here in eight weeks, ready to fight alongside him—assuming there was still anyone left alive to join up with. "We have to keep our numbers high." With this final statement, the ruler turned away from the balcony window and strode his throne forwards.
There was nothing, for a moment, just the milling of the surrounding crowd. The explosion, when it came, was as devastating as it was surprising when it completely flattened the seating area where the primates were marching. Gaul felt hundreds of energy signatures in that area disappear in a flash.
Gaul looked out onto the chaos caused by the sudden blast. Hundreds of apes lay motionless on the ground, some still alive screaming in pain. In contrast, others moaned incoherently, many missing limbs or worse. Even more died on impact due to broken bones, concussions, etc.
Cadets rushed about looking for survivors, helping wounded comrades, tending to each other's wounds, and generally doing whatever needed to be done. Chaos reigned supreme. Soldiers ran everywhere, trying to provide aid. Fire Apes scrambled to put out fires started by falling debris. Everywhere was confusion; nowhere did order reign.
Gaul stood dumbstruck at the sight before him, stunned to see how quickly things had gone wrong so soon after everything seemed to go perfectly well today.

The loss of life in such a sudden manner was a horrific blow to the Army's morale. Jungwong city was more than just a massive mountain city; they were the ultimate symbol of military might, to whom the only real counter was an overwhelming force along with multiple Rank-B fighters or monsters. So to see their magnificent city annihilated in such a manner, with a single shot no less, was nothing short of astonishing. So why didn't the sensors go off? Why weren't alarms sounding? And what happened to the guards assigned to protect the Ape King himself? Did the soldiers fail to respond to the threat, or are the Ape King and the Ape army simply that incompetent?
That is when Gaul noticed he could hear a whistle in the air. He glanced to the sky, spotting the familiar silhouette of missiles flying overhead. The whistle grew louder, becoming a shrill scream, then the sound of a loud crash. Moments later, splits into 16 smaller missiles, each missile hitting multiple targets, causing extremely powerful blast and shock waves. Although the missile's damage is limited, the shockwave brings down buildings and other objects, easily giving the missile a larger blast range.
Gaul keeps watching as more missiles destroy his city. Buildings collapse, trees fall, and the screams of the injured and dying fill the air.
"General, we detect three energy signatures that are accelerating towards us, and at a rate that can put even the fastest frigates to shame. They will be within city range in approximately three minutes." The sensors officer spoke up. "They appear to have come from the direction of the Ape King's palace, sir."
"What?" Gaul exclaimed. His face twisted with rage. "Order the fleet to engage the enemies immediately! Order the entire defence force to prepare for battle!" Gaul ordered. As soon as I finish giving orders, there'll be war again...
Jungwong City
A cool breeze blew through the open windows into the classroom, sending a refreshing sensation through the warm afternoon air. Only ten more minutes until the end of the school day and Robo Chimp could go home and start training to join his family in the war effort. He was happy that as a kid, all he had to worry about was taking out the trash and sometimes his sister's bickering.
Rhesus macaque went on with her lesson, but the class couldn't have cared less. It was Victory day', and there were only a few minutes left in the school day, and once the bell rang, learning would be the last thing they would care about. They all looked forward to watching the parade today that would envelop the next two days until they were sent back to the daily routine of school. That's what being a kid was about school, homework, chores, and then what little time was left was used for training for the military.
The clock ticked away, and the little hand was almost on the three. The robotic organic chimp looked outside and watched the trees dance in the wind as he thought of all the fun activities he could do outside. He wonders what kind of weapon he should focus on? That was the last pure thought he'd ever have because as soon as he thought that, he noticed a glowing speck in the sky that eventually grew bigger and bigger.
"What could that be?" He thought.
The shape continued to grow, and Lincoln suddenly noticed a streak followed it. That's when he was hit with the realization that this thing looked precisely like a missile shell. Robo Chimp watched as it came closer and closer. It was heading right towards them. The missiles trail then caused the entire sky to light up even brighter than it already was. Everyone in the classroom turned and looked out the windows.

"Look out!" Robo Chimp shouted as he dove to the floor. "We are under attack!"
As soon as he hit the ground, a loud bang filled the air, and a shockwave caused the window glass to shatter and knocked all the kids off their seats. Screams of fright-filled children engulfed the room as soon as that happened.
And then, silence.
Robo Chimp continued to lie on the ground with his face down until his ears stopped ringing, then he slowly poked his over his desk. He heard some kids crying and noticed that all the lights in the room were off.
"What happened?" He thought. The missile just exploded before it hit the ground. Could that happen? He continued to ponder.
The entire class soon got to their feet. They all looked to where their teacher was just standing waiting; she lay on the floor as well. The students waited for her to get up, but she continued to lie face down on the ground.
"Instructor?" a random primate kid said nervously.
No response.
They all just stood in place. However, Robo Chimp eventually glanced over to where his best friend Ring-tailed Lemur was standing. He looked at Robo Chimp and exchanged worried glances.
Eventually, the teacher shifted and mumbled something.
"She's awake!" some ape said.
They all hurried and surrounded her, waiting for her to get up on her own. She shifted to her side, revealing a strange, angry, scowling face.
The entire class continued to stare at her in bewilderment until a girl repeated the teacher's name. The teacher twisted the girl and sprung at the poor, defenceless child.
The girl barely had time to scream before the teacher chomped down on her left cheek. The entire class screamed. Many students ran out of the room while others just stood frozen in place. Robo Chimp and Lemur looked at each other again, and this time, their faces both showed fear.
Eventually, a big new world chimpanzee went up, grabbed the feral teacher by the waist and began to pull her off the girl. A bunch of kids continued to stand and scream at the terrifying sight. Robo Chimp suddenly rushed behind the instructor and pulled as well. This instigated Lemur to help, too. Robo Chimp and Lemur weren't that strong, but they were forceful enough to pry their instructor off the kid. As they tugged, the teacher still had her teeth clamped down on the girl's cheek.
Eventually, they were making progress in pulling their rabid teacher off the girl, but as they did, her teeth ripped a chunk from the girl's cheek. Even more, kids ran out of the room at the sight of this. Finally, they successfully pulled their teacher off the girl, and a student helped her up, and they both ran out of the room with the girl covering her bloody cheek with her hand. Once they were out, only Robo Chimp, Lemur, the big kid, and three other kids remained. The teacher broke free of their grasp, pivoted herself towards them, and threw herself at the big kid. The chimpanzee put his arms out to block the teacher as she tackled him to the ground.
"Chimpanzee!" Lemur cried as he and the remaining students sprang to help the kid chimpanzee.
They all lifted her off the big kid, and then they shoved her as hard as they could, causing her to fall backwards and bang her head on the corner of her desk.
They all stood around their teacher as she lay still on the ground. Blood drooled out of the gash caused by hitting her desk, and a pool of her own blood eventually surrounded her. One kid cussed as they all looked at each other, wondering what to do now.
Lemur spoke up, "W-w-w-w We need to go tell a commanding officer… or, or-,"
A scream coming from the hallways grabbed their attention.
They all ran out to see that the halls were filled with absolute pandemonium. All the instructors were attacking every kid in sight. The chaos transfixed Robo Chimp and the remaining kids until one adult noticed them and ran at them at full speed. They all screamed and slammed the door. The adult crashed a hand through the little window on the door and grabbed one kid.
"HELP! SOMEONE HELP US!" He yelled as he tried to rip him away.
Kids continued to run screaming as some apes chased after them while others fought against their teachers, who didn't even seem phased by it anymore.
"I don't know what we can d-" another chimp said as he was pushed aside by another ape who was running into one of the classrooms.
"SHIT! SHIT! WHAT DO WE DOOOOO!?" He asked as he looked around frantically.
"I-I think that way!" A small voice replied as the chimps finally corralled the screaming children into the one classroom that was not occupied by a crazed ape. The kids scrambled in there, hiding themselves in corners.
A large gorilla entered with a couple of his buddies in tow. The first guy picked a book out of a shelf randomly and flung it across the classroom at the kids huddled in there. Books started flying everywhere until someone caught it- it was blank paper. The guys kept throwing stuff around until everyone was covered in junk - including Robo Chimp.
One dude looked at Robo Chimp with an evil grin.
He pointed his finger at Robo Chimp.
A chill ran down his spine.
Robo Chimp felt his body go stiffened with an eerie sense of dread. The fur along the back of his neck prickled, and a cold sweat rolled down his forehead. His heart was pounding so fast he thought that he might faint.
"Wha... what..." Robo Chimp stammered.
The zombies ran toward the children.
"NO!" Robo Chimp shouted, trying to stop them with his hands and feet, but he couldn't move an inch - he just stared in horror at his helplessness.
"NOOO!" They started grabbing kids one by one until Robo Chimp found himself alone and completely paralyzed with no idea how to escape this situation he'd somehow gotten.
A warm tear dripped onto the floor next to Robo Chimp, and then it fell through his fingers.

Dashi repeated the special quest to his partner and friend, Dracul.
Dashi blinked several times as he read the quest details, then he shook his head. What the hell is going on? Why am I getting these stupid quests now? Is this supposed to be funny or something? Someone must really bore my boss up in the sky to give us this now.
"You can't be serious?" Dracul said the golden dragonfly.
"This is crazy!" Dashi said as he stared at the screen. "Isn't this tedious shiz for the leader like you? Why the heck am I getting caught of all this crap!"
Dracul laughed and then said, "Me? Why would I get that?"
"Well, duh," Dashi said. "It's your job to lead the team, and you're our King."
"That's why I'm asking what's happening here. You've been doing the same thing for weeks, and suddenly, you're given this ridiculous quest, and now you want me to be your do what?"
"Yes, please!" Dashi said, raising his wings and tail.
"Oh, come on, man! That's so lame!" Dracul said. "Besides, you have done nothing since I'm became king. Still don't know why... They follow me." Dracul then glowed a bright blue. "Control, tell Gusjay to send the battle gear when requested. Also, have Onslaught and Rexy's team handle the exits of the city and kill anything that tries to leave."
"Martio" Rumi gets their attention. Dracul looks at his wife, that was flying at top speeds with her wings. The black dragoness smiled at the smoking and on fire city. "I want you to activate the virus. Infect everyone in that city!"
"Alright," Dracul said, "But what about the bonus objectives?"
"I can sense my sister nearby. She is about 12 feet north of there. Dracul, go locate Gaul and kill that stupid monkey. Zoesette is taking care of the troops down in the city by herself." With that, the black dragoness breaks away from Dracul and Dashi to face her sister.
"Get to work, Dashi," Dracul said. "Locate where Gaul is... I hope he is not too strong for us. I rather not die again."
"Of course, he isn't. He's a dumb monkey!" Dashi said. "Now, let's get to it. If we don't take out that dumb ape soon, he'll have alerted everyone in the area and then we won't be able to infect them."
The duo sensed a power level starting to rise, slowly at first, ever so slowly. It's about was three minutes away from their position. Must be Gaul, the Ape King himself.
"Keep moving, Dashi. We are almost to him," Dracul said.
"Right. Let's go get him!" Dashi said.
Rumi was circling an area filled with draconic designs and statues. The black dragoness can sense her sister but can't find her. "Now where are you, Cynder-" But she got no further. There was a horrible wraith-like shriek, and a dark figure appeared above her: a massive, lithe Dragoness with pitch-black scales, magenta underbelly and wing membranes, six longhorns, and spikes on her wing carpals and tail. Platinum braces adorned her foreleg wrists and long tail, as well as a choker on her long neck. She glared at them with poisonous green eyes and snarled menacingly.
"So, my older twin sister has finally come to me. I knew you would come here... Wait, did you evolve?!"
"You mean I was expected?!" Rumi calmly asked.
"Why wouldn't you be?" Cynder said. "You know that I always expect the best from you, Rumi."
"Yeah, yeah. Well, I've got a question for you."
"You dare come here, Rumi, with an army at your back, as though they would make a single difference." Cynder laughs, her tail slapping the ground behind her, causing a five deep crater.
"Of course, little sister. I've come to get you away from our father! You know, the one you just joined out of the blue for no reason!" Rumi cries out, the anger in her voice relatively clear. "As for my army? They are simply here to keep the monkeys and other rabble you've picked up over the years in line. I'd hate to have to kill too many of my new subjects while taking you down. But, then again, I hate monkeys and apes in general."
"You'll have to take it from my cold dead paws, Rumi," Cynder replies. "And I'm afraid you're still not strong enough…."
"Haha, hahaha! Foolish little sister! Do you think I would come here without at least being prepared? That I wouldn't arrive being certain of my victory?" Rumi laughs in reply. "You've never understood the subtlety of being prepared, never understood what it means to out-think your foes!" Her aura picks up, wafting lazily in the wind, as she sets her dragon wings wide open, widening her stance. "Today, Cynder, I will defeat you and make you join my empire. Starting with your infection with my husband's mana!"
Cynder's claws struck out, ripping through the air towards Rumi's chest.
But Rumi dodges, and the attack passes harmlessly through her.
"Ha! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Rumi fired back at her sister. "Gehenna Dragon's Roar!" The hyper resonance ability of a dragon attuned to the element of fire and heat. Rumi fires hellish blue flames at the giant dragoness.
The sheer force of the blow was equivalent to a concentrated nuclear weapon forced into a small, invisible funnel. Neither knew about it, but there was only one fact about it: it hurt like hell.
The younger twin dragon was sent pummeling down, and with a bone-cracking thud, crashed through the ground. A huge dust cloud was thrown up where it was, and Rumi looked at the spot, satisfied by what she did. Even when they were younger, Cynder was just like any other dragon or dinosaur she "taught." Violence against violence. It worked the best like that.
"The mana should infect her now... But I still can't believe how much power she lost from the Rank Downer virus. It weakens Cynder that much... Too bad it was only one use method."
"T-This is humiliating..." So Cynder thought as she tried to stand up, only to realize that her right foreleg was broken. She roared in pain.
She felt ... helpless. Helpless against this new power. "Fuck... When did my sister get so strong!? I should easily taken that blast, no problem?"
Then suddenly, she felt her body shrinking. A sense of lust and want washed over Cynder as felt the foreign mana enter her system. "Shit, what's going on!?"
Like three other females before her. Cynder entire being grew hot and heavy as the energy was clinging to her very soul. The energy core on her chest and her tail blade are turning black. Her claws are sharper. The armour-like skin was gaining burning dragon tattoo-like markings. A series of ominous weather changes occur as her power mixes the mana from Rumi's attack. There are lightning strikes. The clouds darkened as they shrank. Raindrops turned into ice balls. Thunder rumbled as hail pelted the ground. The air temperature dropped significantly.
"I'm getting stronger... This is insane! I've never seen this kind of power before! Am I evolving as well...? Rumi, what did you to me!?"
"I have infected you with our husband's magic, and I've been using the virus to decrease your strength and rank. So far, it seems to work perfectly. I bet you'll be ready to mate with him by the end of the day."
"What do you mean, husband?!" Cynder roared as she felt her body change. "I-I-I DON'T WANT HIM! Wait?! You're married?"
"Yes, and I'm pretty sure you'll love it once you see him. He's quite handsome, especially after all this time spent with me. After I take you to him, you'll probably be begging him to impregnate you with his child. When we get older, that is"
"I will not!!" Cynder panted as she fought against losing herself to the mindless power she so badly wanted and at this rate, her evolution would be done soon. "FUCK!" She moaned in pleasure and pain. "I can't control myself anymore! My mind is going blank!"
"Good. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself. I'm really looking forward to making normal again. Have more of our husband's mana!"
Suddenly, Rumi's whole body shined with a bright light.
"No... No, I'm not ready for this yet. Please, stop!"
"Too late. Enjoy the ride." Rumi said, laughing evilly. "I've been waiting for this moment for years. You will thank me later when father's mind control is gone."
With that, Cynder's body exploded with light.
A blinding flash filled the sky, soon followed by black and blue flames racing at each other.
Dashi and Dracul both gasped as they watched the explosion.
"What happened?" Dracul said. "I know that blue fire is Rumi's, but the black fire feels... like Rumi? But not?"
Dashi shook his head. He did not know what was going on. It looked like an explosion of some kind, but it seemed to come from inside the city itself. "We need to find Gaul, and kill him, then I get to go back to sleeping like a baby," he said.
"Don't worry, Dashi. We will find him. I can feel him close. Let's move!"
"Right!"
They both moved off, following the trail of mana.
Gaul was sitting in his throne room, watching the city's destruction below. The reason is that the entire roof was blown the heck off!
"Did you hear that, Father?" One of his commanders said. "It sounds like a great battle is happening outside."
"Indeed," he said, "And it looks like my army is fighting the dead." Gaul paused and looked north. "I can sense a powerful energy signature coming towards us."
"My lord, look at the source of the blue flame. It appears to be the leader of the group."
"Let's finish the one that comes to us quickly. I want to watch her burn," Gaul said, smiling. "It's good to see my children fighting. They are truly worthy of becoming my heirs."
"As you wish, my lord."
"Now, bring me the black dragon. I want to enjoy the sight of her death. Master would understand that Rumi's death was unavoidable."
"Yes, my lord." As soon as one commander said that, they felt the castle shake.
"What in the" They felt it a massive power level, then gasped as it started to shoot up. Gaul can hear scouters in front of him and behind him, lighting up with the number as enemies' Power Level grows. The ape king can hear the sea of scouters and computers alerting their wearers as the power grows more and more. The more the castle rumblings and shakes, as the mysterious power finally crests over 1,000,000, before hitting my breaking the Scouters and Computers.
Outside, Dracul is shaking with the power as it finishes rising. The crocodile dragon's hybrid muscles become bigger, and his appearance becomes more feral. The castle and everyone still alive in it continue to shake from the Dracul's power, but he is not done yet... "Dragon Force!!"
Limits Breached!
WARNING!
His aura explodes around him, turning from its normal light green to a dark shade of red and green. As his energy compresses, then doubles, compresses again, doubles again. Up and up, it soars, tearing the surrounding sky into hurricane-like force winds. "Rrrrreaaaaaa!" The hybrid is crying out as his body thrums with the energy and the pain.
He opened his maw, pumping his energy into his large, crocodilian jaw, forming a cannonball-sized ball of energy. He ignores the warning bells and alerts as Dracul continues to pump every last bit of energy into his mouth, the ball of energy tripling in size, again, again, as his Power Level goes up higher than what he or Dashi can control. The moment it maxes, his maw strains to contain the mass of energy he'd built up, his vision starts to flash. The light from the attack is blinding, brighter even than the sun shining above.
The energy is pouring off of him, a deep, deep red green.
'Good enough.' Dracul thinks.
"The target is 20 feet in the centre... now fire!" The golden dragonfly pointed to where Dracul could launch the attack.
"Prominence Toxic Burn! x10! GREAAAHHHHH!" He cries, letting loose the maelstrom of energy, fire and poison within his jaw.
The two dragons closed in on each other, roaring and screaming as they went. Both had the same objective: Defeat the other.
Rumi's fire was pure hellish blue, while Cynder's was black and icy.
Both attacks were equally powerful.
The two forces clashed.
"I'm not going to lose, little sister!" Rumi shouted as she unleashed another wave of hellish blue flames.
Cynder retaliated by unleashing a freezing storm of ice.
The two attacks collided, exploding violently as they smashed together.
The shockwave blasted away everything near them.
This surprised the dragoness, since when did she have the power over ice. "I see you are using the power from our husband already?" Looking back at her sister, who had a victorious smirk on her face. Growling, Cynder made a retort. "Fine, let's see if you can handle this! And I don't have a husband."
She poured more of her not husband's power into her hands. The cold started to spread through her body, her breath became visible in the air, and her claws started to turn white. The Terror of the Skies wonders why she can still feel the hellish energy in her.
"Now you're just playing dirty!" Rumi laughed. "But let me show why you can't beat me."
She growled, feeling her own power surge through her body. "Frost Breath!"
"Ice Storm!"
The two attacks collided, the ground cracking under the pressure of the collision.
Snow and ice exploded everywhere, covering everything in a thick layer of frost. Both dragons were covered in a thin layer of ice, their bodies glowing from the intense cold.
Cynder's eyes glowed a dull red, almost like blood.
Rumi's eyes shone like black diamonds.
They both stopped, breathing heavily.
Both stared at the other, wondering which one was stronger.
Then Cynder lunged at her sister.
Rumi dodged, ducking low to avoid the attack.
As she did so, she created a large blue fireball in her claw.
"Eat this!" She threw it at Cynder, hitting her right in the chest.
Cynder grunted as the heat and flames seared her body. She tried to dodge, but she was too slow.
Rumi landed a punch on her side.
The blow sent Cynder flying across the frozen landscape. She hit a tree, shattering it into pieces. Her body lay there, unmoving.
"Well, that was fun," Rumi smirked. "I guess I win."
Dracul felt his body was to give out. He'd used most of his energy and couldn't keep up with the constant explosions. His hybrid muscles were giving way. He hoped Gaul was turned to dust.
"Come on, you stupid bitch," Dracul whispered, taking a step forward. "Is that all you got?"
Something changed though.
The air grew heavy as if something was approaching.
"What's happening?" He asked, confused.
Before he could answer, the air started to grow denser, making it hard to breathe.
He took a step back, trying to escape the suffocating darkness.
Suddenly, a wall of pure, white light appeared in front of him.
The light expanded rapidly, pushing back the darkness.
"What the fuck is this?!" Dracul screamed.
He tried to move, but his limbs wouldn't obey.
"Rrrraaaaaahhhhh!"
A massive roar echoed in the distance.
The sound seemed to be getting closer.
The light faded, revealing a huge figure standing before him.
It stood over 30 feet tall, towering over the Warfang king.
Its skin was a deep purple colour, with black veins running through it. Its horns were straight and sharp, like a ram's.
Its eyes were pitch black, like two holes in the night.
It had no hair, only a small patch of fur on its head.
It roared again, and Dracul could feel the sheer strength of the creature.
"Gaul?" He whispered, shocked.
The Ape King locked eyes with Dracul. "You the one that did this?" His aura alone is crushing his body.
"Shenron this is going to fucking hurt." Dracul think as he'd shove all his energy into my body, throwing his power as high as he can go. It physically hurts to power up so suddenly, but it needs to be done.
"Boosted Dragon! Times 20!" Dracul cries, launching himself at the ape king. The suddenness of the attack catches him off guard, and his fist slams into his face like a steel jackhammer, launching him backwards. Dracul, rushing after him, meeting him in mid-air again. The two giants crash into the ground, sending chunks of stone flying everywhere. Dracul tries to grab him, but he manages to get his hand around his throat. Dracul starts squeezing, trying to crush his windpipe.
His claws start to glow purple and his dragon wings glow purple as well. "Poison Boomerang," Dracul said as he flapped his wings throwing several boomerangs made out of solidified poison.
Gaul throws his arms up to block the incoming projectiles.
The boomerangs hit him, exploding violently making the area around them a poisonous mist. The rocks, buildings, and trees melt
He feels the venom burning through his body. Gaul easily breaks through Dracul's grip. But was prepared when Dracul's tail slammed in the face, sending him rag-dolling across the ground.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" Dracul and Dashi said in disbelief. Even with all the debuffs the ape is that much stronger?
That's a fucking monster. What the hell?!
"You fucking lizard!" Gaul roars, as gets and summoned his mace and at Dracul as he approaches the broken, crippled and tired body of Dracul.
Dracul launches more and more attacks, only to meet an unstoppable force of rage, and anger.
"Rrrrrrraaahhhh!" Gaul bellows as he charges towards Dracul, his mace glowing purple. Dracul takes a defensive stance, blocking the first blow.
"What's wrong? You're not even trying." Dracul sneers, dodging a second strike.
"I'll kill you for what you've done!" Gaul snarls, swinging his mace down on Dracul's head. Dracul dodges once again.
"I'm not scared of your mace, you oversized ape." Dracul laughs even though his lungs are more likely filling with blood. God even dodging his swings hurt. The wind pressure from his mace is cutting his scales.
"Soon I will make you kneel maggot!" Gaul shouts as he swings his mace again. Dracul blocks the blow, but the impact sends him flying through the air.
"Hahaha!" Dracul laughs as he lands on his feet, watching as Gaul charges at him again.
"Lizard-"
He didn't manage to finish his outburst of anger, as my Dracul's dreadful killing intent burst forward from his smaller frame. Never before had he'd experienced such arrogance directed towards him. At that moment, something deep inside the ruler of Warfang stirred. It was a pride more domineering and indomitable than a thousand kings. Something that was beyond words or thoughts.
This was the true form of the Warfang King.
The full extent of his wrath.
The might of his battle fury.
His ultimate weapon.
"Call me Lizard one more time," Dracul growled, his voice rumbling like thunder, his energy exploding within him. "You dare speak such insolence towards me!" The sky flashes with lightning as the clouds darken above the ape, dragonfly, and dinosaur dragon hybrid.
Gaul paused, staring at Dracul. "What?"
"You heard me," Dracul replied, flexing his claws. His eyes are covered with white transparent nictating membranes. The ground is shaking beneath the crocodile dragon, his energy skyrocketing with little to no effort. His voice reaches a fever pitch, his draconic vocal cords straining beneath the very real rage he is feeling.
Looking around, Dracul saw monkeys and apes' pale faces all around. It would seem that most of the apes and monkeys had even fainted from the sheer display of overwhelming presence just now. None entered the poisoned area. Even those who had been close enough to witness the fight had fallen unconscious.
Dracul smirks. "It seems that you and you little weak friends are indeed afraid of me."
Gaul stares back at Dracul, looking at the various cuts and bruises he has on his body. He looks at the blood oozing from the wounds.
Seeing Dracul's dismissal of him and his men, he quickly regained his senses and adopted a face that could only be associated with pure hatred.
Not only had Dracul embarrassed him. He'd had done so in front of all his subordinates. With his ingrained, natural proud nature, he, of course, would never accept such a thing.
Brandishing his big metal mace, he rushed at Dracul.
Dracul grinned as he readied himself to receive the attack.
The two monsters crashed together.
The ground shook as the two titans clashed against each other. Looking at Gaul, the hybrid eyes darkened, a ghostly aura surrounds it, cursing the ape king. Gaul overpowers Dracul knocking away.
One of his many passives active from that last attack. The Hunters Boby. An ability that gives massive health regen, it didn't fix all wounds, but it did give him more than enough strength for this. Dracul reaches over with his good arm and slams his front shoulder back in place. Staggering from the pain but manage to stay standing. Dracul looks towards Gaul, right as he launches a purple death ball attack. The hybrid points his claw and release his energy with barely any effort, which slams into the attack in midair. The explosion fills the sky with fire, but that doesn't stop him from sensing Gauls Location.
They meet once more, taking him completely by surprise. The firestorm parts before Dracul, opening the path him easily, where he slammed into him with the force of a thousand hammers. Dracul quickly caught up to him quickly, slamming into him, again, and again. The ruler of Warfang doesn't waste time, energy, mana, with words. His body is breaking down under the strain of the fight, under all the damage he's taken, and knows know that even as a with Boosted Dragon, Dragons Force, all the support he cast before. Dracul can't keep going forever.

8 199Return of Chaos
For the longest time, it was thought that the citizens of Earth were the only denizens of the galaxy incapable of developing superhuman abilities — but recent events have flipped that assumption on its head. Between Austin Travis, Mote Emerson, Pierce Bradley, and their friends, Earth is now host to 12 Chaotics… as well as a myriad of mysteries surrounding them. From a new nemesis in the form of a clone, to connections to ancient technology from a long-lost civilization, to the ability to summon powerful legendary weapons, these 12 Chaotics have unknowingly become entangled in something larger than any of them have ever imagined. As if in response to these discoveries, the sinister machinations of galactic evil are churning. The metallic infection, a calamitous nanotechnology “disease” thought to have been vanquished 20 years ago, is slowly returning — and alongside it, a number of conflicts thought to be long past. While they only seek to better grasp their own abilities, Earth’s Chaotics will soon find themselves in the crossfire of returning threats and old heroes. These superpowered Earthians may not have chosen this path through life, but it will still be up to them to determine if history remembers them — to determine if history remembers the saga of the Keys. Return of Chaos is a direct sequel to Chosen Chaos, which begins the Key Saga novel series. Be sure to read Chosen Chaos first, to understand the plot and the characters thus far! Additionally, the Key Saga as a whole takes place 20 years after Rise. You will not need to read Rise to understand the events of Return of Chaos, however the latter will spoil many of the events that occurred in Rise, due to the simple chronology of taking place later in the timeline.
