| - Previous: A Door that Opens Part 2 Rise: Catman Rinji! [Through a megaphone den den mushi] You have a bounty on your head for 200,000,000 belli! I am giving you the chance to come quietly! Failure to comply will result in your forced apprehension! You have thirty seconds to comply! Rinji: Mewhahahaha! Little do they know, I have a perfect comeback for just such an occasion. Chio! Hand me my megaphone den den mushi... Chio: Ummm we traded it for food. Rinji: Eh?! Damn, that's right, that was the night we had shrimp and steak. Damn... and it was worth it. Rise: Ten seconds to reply! Rinji: Hell! Chio! Send them your butt cheeks! Rise: So... [Looking through a seeing glass] It's such a shame, he has quite the attractive rear-end. Oh well. Apprehend them immediately!! Hammer: Hmmmmm, I see, so you are the swordsman of the Tiger-Stripe Pirates. [Towering over her with a height of six-foot three inches, his sword was a bastard sword with a much wider range than normal. A grin crossed his face] I love a good challenge! Seaman: Admiral! They have a hostage! We need to get her out of here immediately! [Turning back toward the Vice Admiral] Rise: Turn back to her, you idiot!! Rinji: Mewhahahahaha! Who wants to pet kitty?! [showed his shining, sharpened claws toward them, causing them to take a step back in hesitation] Rinji Nikyu! [Disappeared in a flash!] Rinji: Busoshoku! RINJI KEN!!!!! Rise: HOOYOO! [swiped a blinding-speed kick straight for Rinji, striking him square in the maw] Rinji: Errrr!!! [Slid back and flipped back onto his feet to gain his balance, wiping his chin] Mewhahaha! Not a bad thrust. Rise: I see your bounty was well placed, Rinji. [threw her Justice Trench Coat to the side and took a fighting stance] Rinji: That's Captain Rinji to you, Vice Admiral Rise. And if you think you're going to shoe yourself in for the next position of Admiral, well... that's what Kola said. [Grin] Rise: [Scowled instantly, and then jumped straight forward, her leg extended into a flying dragon kick] HAUUUU!!! Rise: Hawwww! [Ran straight for him and then skidded across the deck with a kick that was aimed straight for his chest] Rinji: [Instantly jumped into the air and balled up his haki] Rinji Dama! [Blasted the ball straight into her onslaught] Rise: Geppou! [Dodged to the side of the attack in midair, but found that the Catman was right beside her as she did, thinking fast, she caught both of his claws by the wrists.] They both struggled to gain the upper-hand. Neither of them attempted a kick, as it may cause the other to knock them off balance. Both of them, at the exact same time figured it was time to pull out their trump cards. Rise: Taru Taru no... [Hands began to melt into tar, making his wrists imprisoned] Rinji: GAH! Nani?!? Rise: KANGOKU! [pushed his hands against his chest and made them stick there, almost as if to mummify him] Rinji: What the hell is this?! A devil fruit power? Rise: Very perceptive of you, kitten. Very few have forced me to use the Taru Taru no Mi. As it makes me completely made of tar. Rinji: ....Ewwwww Rise: What do you mean "Ewww?!?" How rude! Rinji: Busoshoku! [Burst from the tar entrapment, making tar fly all over the place.] Rinji.... [thrusted his arms forward and powered them with a bright, yellow powerful light.] Two-Palm SLAM!!!! Rinji: She obviously didn't earn the rank of Vice Admiral with a simple devil fruit, that much is for certain. She fights like a demon, and her strength is unmistakable. If this fight carries on much longer, this may not end well for me. Seaman: Admiral! Look! Rise: Taru Taru Noo--- wha.... [Stopped in her tracks as a blue, glowing butterfly fluttered by her face.]
