Momonga's eyes locked onto Drakon, who was watching the scene unfold with a mix of shock and concern. "You, Drakon... Shiki's son," Momonga said, his voice firm but measured. "I'm afraid I have to take you in for questioning."
Drakon's eyes narrowed, his hand instinctively going to the hilt of his sword. "I don't think so, Vice Admiral," he said, his voice low and even. Momonga's smile never wavered. "I'm afraid it's not a request, Drakon. You're coming with me, one way or another."
"Look, I know I can't beat you one on one. But, I ain't going down without a fight." Said Drakon as his arms become coated with his armament haki. Momonga looks at him with awe. "You can already use haki? Maybe Akainu was right after all, I need to be extra careful with you." He said as he covers his sword with haki as well.
The air seemed to crackle with tension as Drakon and Momonga faced off, their haki-infused attacks clashing in a silent challenge. Drakon charged forward, his fists flying in a flurry of punches, each one imbued with the power of his Haki.
Momonga met him head-on, his sword flashing with a burst of speed as he unleashed a series of swift slashes. The two combatants exchanged blows, their movements lightning-fast as they battled across the courtyard.
Drakon's punches were powerful, but Momonga's swordsmanship was unparalleled. The Vice Admiral parried and riposted, his sword slicing through the air with deadly precision. Drakon dodged and weaved, his agility and quick reflexes allowing him to avoid the worst of the attacks. As the fight raged on, it became clear that Momonga's experience and skill gave him the upper hand. Drakon's determination and raw power were formidable, but the Vice Admiral's mastery of his sword and haki allowed him to stay one step ahead.
The battle intensified, the two warriors clashing in a whirlwind of steel and fists. Drakon's haki flared with increasing intensity, but Momonga's control over his own haki remained unwavering.Momonga's sword sliced through the air, heading straight for Drakon's chest. But the young bounty hunter saw it coming, his Observation Haki allowing him to anticipate the attack. Drakon dodged to the side, his Haki-infused fist flying towards Momonga's exposed flank.
Momonga, however, was no stranger to Observation Haki. He had been using it to read Drakon's movements throughout the fight, and he saw the punch coming. With a swift parry, Momonga deflected Drakon's attack, creating an opening for a devastating counterattack. The Vice Admiral seized the opportunity, unleashing a powerful slash that seemed to rip through the air itself. Drakon tried to block it, but Momonga's sword sliced through his defense, striking true. Drakon stumbled back, his Conqueror's Haki faltering for a moment.
Momonga pressed his advantage, his sword flashing in the light as he launched a series of swift, precise strikes. Drakon struggled to keep up, his movements becoming increasingly desperate as he tried to fend off the Vice Admiral's onslaught. The outcome of the battle seemed all but certain, with Momonga poised to emerge victorious.
He began to walk slowly to the fallen Drakon, just as he was about to grab him, a "Aqua Fist " attack came from right side. Momonga, who left his gard down for a instant couldn't block the attack and as a result it sent him flying. The owner of this attack? A water clone that Drakon had made earlier.
The injured Drakon makes his way to his feet and rushes to a small local boat(like the one Sanji had at the beginning) he uses his devil fruit powers to master up a giant wave to get the boat moving, at the sane time he conjures up a giant whirlwind to swallow up all the Marine ships at sight. Momonga who just sits there ideally and watches, he than slowly walks back to the city of Loguetown town. There he sees Daddy Masterson yet again.
"That water attack isn't an attack that can knock you down for more than five minutes." Said Daddy Masterson.
"If my health was one hundred percent, I would've gotten up on the spot. But, I dod fight a certain powerful individual before I faced the kid."
"Powerful you say? Well, thanks for letting the kid go. And I know that this individual you speak of wasn't that strong".
"Well, that a secret he and I both have to keep, isn't it. Masterson?"
The two men look at each other and start laughing.
Momonga's expression turned serious, his eyes gleaming with a hint of determination. "I'll be keeping an eye on him, Daddy. You can be sure of that. Today i let him go because he means a lot to you that you'lleven risk your life for him."
Daddy Masterson nodded, a small smile still playing on his lips. "I wouldn't expect anything less, Momonga. You've always been a man of your word."
As Momonga turned to leave, Daddy Masterson called out to him. "Momonga, don't forget. The kid's got potential. You might want to consider letting him live his life, instead of trying to capture him all the time."
Momonga's back was to Daddy Masterson, but his voice carried back clearly. "I'll take that under advisement, Daddy. But my duty comes first." With that, Momonga disappeared into the distance, leaving Daddy Masterson to watch over Drakon as he slowly got to his feet in the boat. He raised his hand and started waving at Daddy Masterson.
"Goodbye, my son." Said Daddy Masterson. Although they've only known each other for a year and a half, Masterson viewd Drakon as his son.
A while later.
Momonga calls Nevy HQ to notify them that Drakon had escaped and they need more ships to escort the nobles back home.
"Momonga, you're telling me that you left the kid get away? First Fujitora let strawhat get away and now you? What is the nevy becoming this days?"
"My apologies, fleet admiral. But,I underestimated the kid. I thought since he was in the east blue he was probably weak."
"Make no mistake. The East blue might be called the weakest sea, but it has produced major power houses through the years. We're talking about Gold Roger,Dark king Rayleigh, The Marine hero Garp, Dragon, his son, his sons two sworn brother, Roronoa Zoro, Vinsmoke Sanji, Yasopp the chaser and God Ussop. All those names belong to power houses in their own right, that alone should've reminded you that the east blue shouldn't be overlooked. Anyway, next time you ran into the kid, make sure you catch him. I've already sent his picture to the bounty office, a bounty should be placed on his head."
"Thank you sir. I'll keep that in mind."
In Akainus office
A nevy soldier comes running with a picture of a wanted poster.
"Sir, the wanted poster has been completed. Here it is" he says.
"Good, let me see." Says Akainu as he crabs the poster.
A picture of a light brown skinned boy with blonde hair, blocking a sward with his armament haki and with a bloody mouth is seen with the words "wanted dead or alive. Aquilar Drakon. 75, 000,000 bellies."
"Mhhm. 75 million for a kid who isn't even a captain of his own boat, isn't that a little too high? Sakazuki" Said another man in the room as he talk slowly.
"Don't talk nonsense, Borsalino. This is the son of the Golden lion we're talking about. If I had it my way, I'll just sky rocket it up all the way to a billion. Evil like this should be delt with while it's still young."
Somewhere in the seas of the east blue
"What, 75 mill? I'm I really worth that much?
