Vermillion and Alya appeared on the boat and immediately issued orders. The prisoners and the other people they had invited went to work.

Engines roared and the ships started moving. " What do you think is happening?" " I don't know, but it seems lord Vermillion came across something dangerous, I've never seen him so nervous before."

Hushed whispers were heard on the ships. Aira and Cat watched all of this with amusement. When they saw Vermillion's disheveled figure, Cat couldn't hold back her laughter.

Vermillion glared threateningly at her, she glared back provocatively and fearlessly then grinned at him.

He just clicked his tongue and ignored her, she was disappointed, she really hoped he would take the bait and fight her.

" What is that?" Suddenly one man asked, everybody turned their heads and in the distance they saw a black dot flying straight towards them like a bullet.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Ved saw a fleet of ships, on the largest of them he saw the red headed man. His anger boiled the moment he laid his eyes on him.

Without wasting any moment he fired a bolt of lightning at the ship. It wasn't the purple first order extinguishing tribulation lightning but his normal lightning.

A bolt as thick as a tree cut through the air heading straight for the ship. On the ship a group of men and women moved.

They used their vessels to attack the lightning bolt. Arrows made of light, fireballs, lightning bolt, crescent sword slashes, energy spears, icicles etc.

However when they met the lightning bolt they all crumbled like sand castles. The lightning bolt continued but before it could reach the ship a giant shield of fire blocked it.

The air exploded sending lightning and flames in every direction. Ved did not stop, immediately after he opened his mouth and the spikes on his back glowed.

Then he started shooting nuclear blasts, balls of blue energy shot out of his mouth like a rattling gun.

Each nuclear blast was not too powerful on it own, barely reaching the power of a rank 4 but the shear number of them, made them a nightmare to deal with.

Their abilities met the nuclear blasts causing them to explode mid air. Waves of nuclear energy spread out burning and destroying everything on their path.

But the ships were protected by shields so they weren't effected. Ved descended from the sky and dropped to the ships like a black bolt of lightning.

However before he could even reach them a figure appeared right infront of him and threw a punch, the ignited, Ved growled in rage.

Ved's eyes were clouded by so much rage he couldn't even make out the features of the person infront of him but it did not matter, they did not matter.

His palm met the fist and he felt a tiny stinging pain on his palm, this angered him even more but the person shot back down like a streak of light, their body hit the sea and sent giant waves in every direction.

He continued flying down, aiming for the ship with the red headed man, he still couldn't see the man's face clearly as his back was turned to him.

However before he could reach the ship a giant golden bird cage appeared around him trapping him inside.

He slashed his claws at the cage but all he managed to do was crack it, then the crack healed almost immediately.

He turned his head and on another ship a woman carrying a similar but smaller bird cage was looking at him with vigilance.

Ved growled, his anger kept rising at these insects who dared to stand against him. He slapped with both of his claws one after another, the bird cage shattered.

The woman's face grew pale but Ved ignored her and lunged at the red ship. The people on the ship screamed and ran around but he ignored them.

None of them mattered, the one he wanted was the red man. Just as he was about to land on the ship something jumped out of the water below him.

His attention was fully on the red man so he failed to react in time and got punched on the stomach, he felt the temperature rise below him.

His body flew back up, then he stabilized himself and looked at the person who attacked him. It was a blonde muscular woman but her body was shrouded in red mist.

He couldn't tell what she looked like on the face and the air seemed to boil wherever she passed, making it even harder to make out her features.

The woman kicked the air, flames ignited on her foot and she flew at him. Ved created thousands of strings.

She punched him, the air exploded and ignited wherever her fist passed. Just as her punch was about to land, the strings bound her body and held her in place.

He watched her struggle to break them to no avail, even her flames failed to burn them. Ved slapped her, his palm, large enough to fit her entire body descended upon her like a falling wall.

However, a golden barrier suddenly appeared infront of her blocking the palm. The barrier shattered immediately and his palm was merely stopped for moment.

However before he could continue with his attacks, 7 golden circles with runes appeared around him.

Golden chains flew out of the runic circles and bound his body. He tried to break them but they were harder than he expected. He figured it would take a second or two to break them.

Sword of the four seasons: Spring Breeze. Ved heard a whisper then a wind slash cut through his strings, freeing the blonde woman.

He saw a man who looked Japanese standing next to the woman with a bird cage, in his hand was a Katana with wind still spinning around it.

The man pointed his sword at him. The wind around it spun even faster becoming a wind drill.

Then he kicked the ship and lunged at Ved. Even though Ved felt no threat from this attack, he still felt disrespected.

These mere rank 3 humans kept standing in his way. Something woke up inside him, something vast and primal, hidden deep within his blood. Dragon Pride. He heard the world whisper in his soul.

He felt his strength rise, he shattered the golden chains and slashed his tail at the man. When his sword met the tail, the air exploded between them.

The shockwave sent the man flying to the ocean below and he coughed up blood. Ved raised his head and roared, his powerful roar shook the sea, creating giant waves, a deep pride and might could be felt through the roar.

Then a cold voice that made his body shake whispered. " Quiet beast." The world seemed to grow quiet.

The red man turned and looked at Ved but when Ved saw his face, his mind went blank. Then the world turned red and BOOOOOOM.
