Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Losing...
"FUGA!"
A flaming fire arrow pierced the air, and with speed, it fired toward Garp back with humungous momentum.
Garp sensing the danger, quickly covered his back in condensed armament and conquerors haki, trying his best to block the fire arrow from injuring him.
BOOM!
The world seemed to light up as a white most violent light blinded everyone on the island, the heat around picked up as the fire turned into a sea of flames that spread out.
The fire then started creating shockwaves that attacked Garp from all directions as a flame pillar tightened around him, all the damage being taken by him, and Bogard.
A few seconds later, the flames die down, and the smoke is blown away by the wind that is picking up.
The clouds start gathering, and from the heat produced by the fire, and the evaporation of the water, clouds start to gather, ready for a storm.
Crackle!
Lightning strikes in the sky as a few raindrops fall down onto Garp, he is in a mess with his upper garments burned off, and his left arm covered by a burn mark.
His left chest is also red, showing his muscles under his skin, But this does not seem to faze Garp as he is focused on something else, Bogard lying in front of him.
"Bogard..."
Garp stared at Bogard, his whole body charred and black as he took his last breath, getting his arm cut off, and then the flames and the tiny shockwaves attacking him, it was too much.
"Hehehehe~"
Garp suddenly heard a snicker from behind him, and veins started appearing on his head, his observation spread, and then he got up as he sensed the people were safe.
"Sukuna, you better run... or I will kill you"
Sukuna stopped talking, and instead, a disdainful smile made it onto his face as he stared at Garp like a fool, his Fuga did not injure Garp seriously, as Garp used haki, but it was still an injury.
"You don't think I went all out against you right?"
Sukuna asked as he looked at Garp, but he did not get a reply, instead, he felt the atmosphere suddenly get quiet and heavy around him.
Rumble!
A rumbling sound was heard around as Garp was suddenly surrounded by orange-red lighting bolts.
Garp turned around and looked at Sukuna with a furious expression on his face, with a grunt, Garp stepped onto the ground, and his hand lit up like a star.
Sukuna seeing this suddenly felt his body tremble in an attempt to warn him of danger.
"Twin Meteor!"
"Recoil!"
"Scale of the Drag- umm!"
Sukuna quickly started Chanting his attack, but before he could finish, Garp dashed at him, his hand lit up in light as it left behind a trail of light.
"Galaxy Impact!!"
BOOM!
A huge sound was heard, even hundreds of miles from Logue town, passing ships heard the sound, and felt the sea shake, like an earthquake was happening.
A huge explosion was created as Sukuna was hit by Garp head-on, his body fell to the floor, half his shoulder missing, and his chest caved in, while his bones were broken.
Sukuna was floating across a shallow water lake that started filling up the lake, or crater, as the Logue town was now missing, and what was left of the island was a crescent moon-like land.
Garp started Panting as he watched this, his face having a scary expression, Sukuna lay in the water, his eyes white as he was passed out from the punch.
Ba-dump!
Ba-Dump!
Garp suddenly stiffened, he looked at Sukuna, and he saw him looking at him with a crazy expression while his eyes were bloodshot, Sukuna made a hand sign with his only remaining arm.
"Domain Expansion: Malevolent Shrine!"
Sukuna managed to mutter as he made a signal hand sign, Garp watched as a huge and incomplete shrine manifested behind Sukuna, but he quickly acted, or tried to...
BOOM!
Everything turned to ash in the domain, and the remaining land that they were standing on turned into ash as Sukuna's domain took effect.
"Ugh!"
Garp groaned in pain, slashes from all surroundings manifested on his body, not even slashing him from the distance, but manifesting on his body.
Sukuna slowly got up while coughing up blood, he felt his reversed cursed technique, and activated it, managing to use his remaining cursed Energy to heal his broken body.
Garp watched this in anger while the slashes erupted on his skin relentlessly, his haki surrounded his body, trying to protect him, Garp stepped on the ground, ignoring the slashes as they barely managed to cut his skin.
Sukuna seeing this quickly summoned his fire, the effects of his Fuga increasing by a large margin as the domain, although barely activated, made his technique stronger.
"Fuga!"
Sukuna used Fuga, but this time, it was different as the fire appeared in mid-air falling down on top of Garp slowly, then it got faster, and faster until it landed.
Boom!
A huge pillar of fire surrounding both Sukuna and Garp appeared as the flames spread out in a pure pillar, going to the sky, and through the clouds.
"Ugh!"
Sukuna groaned in pain as his newly healed body was assaulted with fire, this was his own technique, and thanks to that he survived by only taking a little bit of damage, but not Garp.
Seconds later, the effect was revealed, The water was punched into a huge circular pit, with Garp inside it falling into the pit, as the water refilled itself.
His body was smoking as he was burned all over, and his left arm was missing, probably due to sacrificing it to protect himself from the huge explosion and the flames.
Sukuna seeing this quickly stood up, and he started running, he barely had enough cursed energy to heal his body, and if Garp catches up, then he will probably be killed.
Swoosh!
While Sukuna was running, his body slowly healed, The water under Sukuna caved in as he ran on it, towards the Navy ships in the distance, where the civilians were.
Sukuna jumped onto it, and with a scan, he caught Nami and Nojiko hiding, he flushed and then took them off into the sky, fell onto the water, and summoned his ship, changing directions.
[ Congratulations on the host achieving 1 million in points, only 9 million to go! ]
Sukuna dismissed the system as he changed the ship from his route, his arrogance was quelled for a minute as he realized how arrogant he was just now.
"If I can't defeat an old Garp, then I can not defeat Big Mom, even tho she is weaker, she has many people surrounding her with strong strength"
If Sukuna goes after them with his current strength, he will no doubt lose, especially since Big Mom got hax as well, and Katakuri and people like Cracker will be there too.
"Tch! Looks like I gotta collect some points to get the next template"
Sukuna clicked his tongue as he watched the navy ships go after the floating Garp on the water, who was watching him run away with furious eyes.
"Just wait... I will repay this a hundred times... you old bastard"
Sukuna gritted his teeth as he watched Garp looking at him, like a coward who was running away.
Slowly the ship made distance with Garp, and everything returned to calm, except the news was quickly spread, even by the navy.
In the Marshal's office, Sengoku was trembling as he heard the words on the other hand of the phone, a few seconds later, he slammed the phone shut and rested his face on his hands.
Sengoku looked at his phone and called the bounty division.
"Increase the bounty of Sukuna"
Sengoku said with a grim voice as he called the bounty division.
"By how much?"
"1 billion"
"Huh? But sir, that means his bounty is going to be 1.5 Billion!"
The man on the other side of the phone said, but Sengoku just shut the phone down as he thought about his friend who just lost an arm.
"Garp..."
On the other hand, the forces around the world quickly got news of this, and they started paying attention to Sukuna more seriously, especially after managing to blow off Garps Arm.
This, A year passed, Sukuna went into Hiding, and the world eventually started paying less attention to him, or outright ignoring his existence, except for the top forces.
[ A year later. ]
[ Cocoyasi island. ]
Inside a house on top of an orange farm, Sukuna sits next to the window, while eating some food.
Next to him, Nami and Nojiko are sitting, eating their food while talking about some things.
Sukuna took a look at his system interface, and his face suddenly revealed a normal happy smile, startling Nami and Nojiko.
"Finally, it is time to start again..."
