"Where is it?!" Leroy Screamed aloud, looking across the ground for the Terragym pendant that had been on the man just days before.
"What the Hell could have happened? That thing was totally snug on his neck, and he was surrounded by Gaurds. How the hell did it get off." The Captain groped his hair, scouring the ground. Tossing the debris around
Thats when finally, the glint of violet stone caught his eye! "There!"
Dashing across the room he picked up the Pendant, and immediately felt the effects of it take hold, it was like his skin suddenly became dry.
The Difference between Seastone, and Terragym, is that Seastone stops the conscious activation of Abilities. But allowing for someone like Leroy to keep his Rubbery Dispostion. But when effected by Terragym, it was as if the very power of the Devil Fruit was being temporarily sapped away. Causing Leroy's body to return back to 'Normal'
This sensation was utterly strange. He'd not felt this way since before he even hit Puberty. It was almost overstimulating to suddenly feel his body do such a thing.
Devil Fruits are Only As strong as the User is. Meaning that Leroy lost no real strength by being in contact with Terragym due to how strong his body was. Only his ability.
"Damnit…Wait!" His mind flashed back to what Aowga said about the size of the Stone. Meaning that it had to only be within a very short distance of the person.
With a quick move, Leroy covered the Terragym with his sash. Covering it in inches of Red Fabric, once the fifth wrap was done, he suddenly felt body come back to what it once was!
With a quick hop he landed on the edge of the destroyed building, looking up to the Transformed figure that was Astrapi Tew!
'He's Distracted. Noir and Kále are still down…This is the only shot I got.' He thought back to how Rojo Frocks Electrified mace had no effect on his rubbery body. He theorized that this fact may allow him to touch or hurt the Marshal
The Goro Goro no Mi. Also known by its name of The Rumble Rumble fruit or the Lightning Lightning Fruit. A Logia type that grants the consumer the ability to produce, control and Turn into Lightning. It is one of the Few Exceptions where it inherently strengthens a user beyond their given capabilities. And with the case of the Rumble Rumble fruit, it was the exceptional speed of Lightning.
With the Wrapped Terragym under his arm, The Captain crouched down, and then with such extraordinary strength that the building behind him shattered the rest of the way down, he flew through the air at incredible speed!
Bringing his hand back behind him, he extended it! His limb flailing through the air behind him, he twisted his arm! And continued to twist it! Until it was tought tight like a twisted piece rope!
"Gomu Gomu no! Javelin!" Slinging his arm forward, his fist began to unwind! Spinning with such tremendous speed that the wind generated was like a hurricane! Impacting into Astrapi Tew with enough force that it knocked Astrapi through the air and slamming through a building! Leaving a clear out line from where he burned his way through as he was forced down!
Leroys fist continued to spin! Drilling into the Electric form of Tew!
"GRRAH!" The Lightning monster spewed a bolt of electricity that carried one billion volts! Crackling and sparking through the air before Leroy could even react! Impacting not only with extreme electric power, but also with extreme kinetic energy! If it wasn't for the grounding properties that his Devil Fruit granted him, utterly negating all aspects of the bolt, it surely would've hit like the strikes from Hornigold Rackham himself!
"Ha Ha Ha!" Leroy laughed, that wild look on his face "It's gonna take more than that to Effec-"
But Before The Captain could continue, he was cut off as Astrapi Tew appeared above him, it took a moment for Leroy to realize, but by the time he looked up, Tew had his electricity formed into a giant lions maw with large antler horns!
"Oh Shit." Leroy Started. Only for the construct of lighting to consume Leroy! Striking him and propelling him all the way down to the street! Vaporizing a crater! Leaving the Captain in a heap of steam and singed clothes.
"I spoke too soon…" He Huffed as he stood to his feet. Quickly, Leroy leaped through the air again! Unraveling the Sash! And Gripping hold of the Terragym!
"Gum Gum! Flat Shot!" He slammed Terragym into the Marshal! Causing his flesh to apperar! Transforming him back into the mangled and scarred form that he had seen before! However, the palm strike variant sent the Marshal away! Allowing him to burst back into electricity! Zipping through the distance and grabbing Leroy!
Electricity wracked his body! Causing his muscles to tense so hard he could feel them begin to tear themselves from flexing! 'The Terragym! I Can't Drop it! M-My Muscles won-'
"WAH!" Leroy was flung through the air! Slamming into the ground with an explosive rupture of the ground! It'd been so long since a blunt force impact had harmed him. He could feel his bones wrack and creak, the throw was enough that it caused hairlines to form!
"S-Shit…" He huffed, wrapping the Violet crystal necklace again. Feeling returning again. The wracks of electric fatigue he felt completely washed away as he did.
"Red Sash!" He Heard a Voice call from behind him. It was louder and bassier than before. But he could recognize it either way!
As Astrapi Tew began to rise and grow in the air! Energy crackling in the shape of a monstrous humanoid form! Leroy skid around to see something even more monstrous before him
"Falcon! Get on!"
"Apponiv?!" He questioned loudly
Before Leroy was a gigantic, and monstrous feathered serpent! The shape being the very same from the Story the Council woman had told them! It was-
The Quetzalcoatl! Apponiv! The Warrior Chief of Skyderia!
