A few seconds later the explosion that occurred due to the blow Shoba and Groombridge finally stopped, followed by a gust of strong wind that came to a stop.
Arata was surprised by the explosion, even crossing his arms to withstand the pressure of the wind coming from the explosion, "Shoba Sekken. Since when did you become strong like this. Does a love that arises in your heart create power? Humans are very strange.."
Izumi and Hozuki smiled excitedly when they saw Shoba's strength increase.
"Damn it, Shoba is getting stronger. If this is the story I can't miss it." said Izumi.
"Yes. I also wonder what could make him this strong. When we first met him, he was like a silly clown who was strong-witted" Hozuki said.

Moments later, after the thick puff of smoke from the explosion disappeared, the figure of Shoba and Groombridge still standing upright with wounds all over his body as a result of the huge explosion was clearly visible. Shoba seemed to smile with a grin, while Groombridge put on an annoyed look.
"Why is a trash like you still standing, admit that you're weak, so don't push yourself." Groombridge said.
"I won't be weak in front of Shion-chan. Because, I am the main character on this Arc!!! Shoba!!! A pirate who is willing to save the princess from the grasp of an evil organization..!!" Shoba poses a strange pose.
"Don't talk nonsense, as if you were the main character in a fairy tale!! Don't dream, trash!!! Get up, and face the fact that you're a huahaha-shit" Groombridge said.
"Shobe Sekken No Soaper The Punch Man!!!" Without further ado, Shoba directly slammed his slap right into Groombridge's face, "Buaghhhhh!!!"
"Yeah!!!" Groombridge bounced a few meters back after receiving a crushing blow to his face. His nose was bleeding a lot and part of his face became bruised, after a few seconds Groombridge fainted.
Shoba saw a blood on his fist, which he thought was coming from Groombridge's nose. Shoba finally smiled and said, "I won!!!" Then Shoba immediately ran towards the cage that locked Shion up, "Shion-chan, I can finally save you!!!"
Meanwhile, both Izumi and Hozuki's eyes sparkled when Shoba managed to defeat Groombridge with just one punch.
"Sugoii!!! Shoba!!! She's great!!!"
"Yes!!! He will definitely become a great pirate someday!!!"
Arata was upset with Izumi and Hozuki's babble that slightly disturbed his ears, "What the two fools are. Why are they even happy after seeing Shoba defeat Groombridge, instead of them being hostile to each other huh?"
...*****...
Shoba finally managed to destroy the sharp cage that had locked Shion. After the cage was destroyed, it was seen Shion who immediately fell under Shoba's grasp.
Shoba slightly shed her tears as she managed to equalize Shion, "Shion-chan, I finally managed to save you!! Thank goodness you're okay!!"
"Anooo.." Suddenly Shion was aware of the influence of the Groombridge style. When he first woke up, Shion saw Shoba in front of his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
"My name is Shoba Sekken!! And I finally managed to save you from this evil Organization!! Back then, while on that island, I saw you smiling with tears of sadness that drenched your beautiful face. So I can't just let you. I infiltrated here just to save you Shion-chan!!!"
"J-so you're the one named Shoba? I thank you because your crew saved me earlier, too." said Shion.
"really?!! I didn't think my crew could be useful either!! Ahhaha!!!" shoba laughed out loud.
"Bacot you, Arata!!!" reply shouted Shoba.
"Now your goal has been achieved, right? You saved Shion and also defeated Groombridge. So it's time we leave this island!!" shouting Arata.
"What do you mean by leaving this island?! Are you too cowardly to just run away?!" reply Shoba.
"Don't be stupid!! Although you managed to defeat the leader, but we are still in enemy territory, damn it!! The other enemies will definitely come to face us!!! I can't fight constantly because my stamina is very limited, so.-" Arata said.
"So where are you going? There's no way out for you, you pirate troublemakers.."
"!!!!!" Arata, Izumi, Hozuki, Shoba, and Shion are shocked by the arrival of a mysterious figure who comes in with no presence at all. Arata who realized the mysterious figure was behind him was suddenly making him reflexively turn his body and move back a few steps back.
"The stupid Groombridge was apparently not able to play the role well. It's really troublesome, he makes me a little disappointed" said the mysterious figure who had just attended. His words made Shoba and the others a little confused.
"Hoey, who are you? All this time I've never seen you at all." said Shoba.
However, the mysterious figure paid no heed to the words of Shoba and only continued his path towards the sprawling Groombridge, "Hey, fool. Wake up.." The mysterious figure instantly pulled the collar of Groombridge's shirt and lifted him up.
"Ukhs.." Suddenly Groombridge woke up in a limp tone, he put on a terrified look and said, "Pardon me, sir. I-I failed to replace you."
Groombridge called that guy a master? Does he have a higher rank than Groombridge? Inner Hozuki.
"There is no apology for someone who failed" said the mysterious figure and slammed Groombridge's face into the ground, "Bruakkk!!!!"
"What-what?!!" Izumi was very surprised, "Who is he really, why do I feel such a terrible aura from him?" said Izumi in a slow tone.
"Sorry to have made you misunderstand. Actually, Groombridge was a subordinate of mine who I ordered to replace me to lead the Lunarian Union for a while. But he's very incompetent." said the mysterious figure.
"Broff!?" Arata surprised.
"Replace it?!" Shoba surprised.
"Leading the Lunarian Union?!" Hozuki.
"While time?!" Izumi surprised.
"My name is Oblaudr Gudjohnsen. I am the true leader of the Lunarian Union, and this fool.." Oblaudr pointed to Groombridge, "He was just a clumsy that I ordered to replace me as leader for a while. Yeah, you could say, Groombridge was my puppet of experiments."
"Oblaudr Gudjohnsen? I've never heard that name in Lunar before. But, I felt a terrible aura from within his body, even more powerful than Groombridge" Arata said.
"Yes, this is because it was you who caused chaos in my territory. So I was a little distracted from my hiding place. Get ready, I'll kill you all, unless I follow my terms" Oblaudr said.
"Requirement?"
