The Future Knight's
Chapter 7: aria's past and the power of friendship

A cold night breeze struck the dark room where Aria, a young youth with eyes full of hatred, was standing in the middle of the room. Marshall, the ruthless leader of the land of Vulture, sits majestically on his luxurious throne.

Aria: (With a quivering voice) Marshall, what you have done to my mother is an unforgivable crime!

Marshall: (With a cynical smile) Oh, Aria, you are still very young and do not understand. This is the price to pay for your extraordinary magic power.

Malisandres, Marshall's mysterious vice-captain, stands behind him, trying to convince Aria.

Malisandres: (In a gentle tone) Aria, you should listen to Marshall. Only by working with her will your mother be safe.

However, Aria, the tough-hearted youth, shook her head violently, hinting at his unanimous determination.

Aria: (With teary eyes) I will never be your tool, Marshall! I will find a way to save my mother, even if it means fighting you!

Marshall: (Lifting eyebrows) You're braver than I thought, but you're also more naive than I thought. Remember, Aria, that I have incomparable power. If you rebel, your mother will suffer.

Malisandres: (Talk carefully) Aria, there is a secret that even Marshall does not know. I will help you develop your strength. Together, we can find a way to save your mother.

Aria pondered for a moment, the early morning sun illuminated her thoughtful face.

Time goes by, and Aria, despite being forced to work for Marshall, never stops trying. By the age of 13, he had created a new style that he called "Ex Hand." This move turned his hands into shiny iron, creating an almost invincible defense.

Aria: (With confidence) Malisandres, I have developed this new style. Ex Hand will help me in the battle against Marshall.

Malisandres: (By pride) Very good, Aria. His strength is incredible. Now, we have to train you to control this skill well.

The two of them spent months, training non-stop. Aria learns to control her Ex Hand, and every move she makes is getting deadly. However, during their training, they also plan a way to defeat Marshall and save Aria's mother.

Aria: (With determination) Alright, Malisandres, I will learn from you. But I'm also gonna figure out a way to defeat Marshall and save my mom.

They realize that their journey is full of obstacles and dangers, but they must unite to fight the evil forces of Marshall and save Aria's mother.

Aria: (With determination) Malisandres, we must find Marshall's weakness. Whatever it is.

Malisandres: (Speaking with consideration) I have some information about Marshall's weakness, but it's very dangerous if it comes to light. We have to be careful.

As they continued to practice and plan strategies, Aria became increasingly powerful and wise. His Ex Hand, which was originally just a defensive power, also developed into a deadly weapon.

A cold night wind struck the battle arena in the middle of the Marshall Club headquarters. Aria, a 13-year-old strong-hearted young man, stands with his glittering Ex Hand, ready to challenge Marshall, the powerful club leader. Marshall Club members have gathered, looking forward to the upcoming show.

Aria: (With determination in her voice) Marshall, it's time to stop this. I will expose your crimes and save my mother!

Marshall: (With a cold gaze) How brave, Aria. However, you are not yet strong enough to face me.

The fight begins, but Aria is severely limited in experience and her skills are not enough to rival the powers of the Tiger Demon Devil Fruit that Marshall possesses. Every attack he made was avoided easily by Marshall. Marshall Club members watched happily, seeing their leader surpass Aria.

Aria, growing weaker, finally fell to the ground with severe injuries. Marshall stood on it with a condescending attitude.

Marshall: (With a cynical smile) You're just a little kid who's not ready to face me.

Marshall Club members cheered to celebrate Marshall's victory. Aria felt desperate, her injuries left her barely able to move.

Aria: (In my heart) I am not strong enough. I don't even know anything about Marshall's weakness.

The Marshall Club had won this fight, and Aria had to accept the defeat bitterly. Although he was battered and did not know anything about Marshall's weakness, his spirit of resistance was still burning. He realizes that this journey is not over, and he will continue to struggle to understand his powers and save his mother in the future.

Yin, who had listened to Aria's past stories, felt deeply concerned and amazed by the spirit still burning within the young man, especially the zeal to save his mother. He got up from his seat and stood in front of Aria.

Yin: (With a sincere voice) Aria, I am deeply moved by your determination to save your mother. We have to fight Marshall together.

aria: let's beat him ! (with his fire spirit)

Yin: (With steady) True strength lies in your spirit, Aria. We'll help you. Zangrid!

Zangrid, who had been silent during the fight earlier, responded by taking out his shiny sword. He lifted it up and said with determination.

Zangrid: (In a loud voice) We're going to teach Marshall a lesson!

Just then, Riley who had previously fainted from the fight, woke up from her stupor. He saw Zangrid preparing to fight and was moved by Zangrid's actions. Without hesitation, he approached Zangrid and hugged her tightly.

Zangrid, who was initially annoyed at being interrupted, was warmed by Riley's embrace. He tries to break away, but Riley is unwilling to let go of his embrace.

Riley: (Intensely) Thank you, Zangrid. You are my true friend.

Zangrid: since when did we become friends ?

Zangrid, despite feeling annoyed at his unexpected situation, finally felt the same sentiment and let Riley embrace him. They both felt strong with their sincere friendship.

After Aria's spirit blazes brighter, she soon shares important information with her friends, Yin, Zangrid, and Vanessa.

Aria: (In spirit) Listen, there are three strongest members in the Marshall Club that we have to face: Malisandres, Mr. Pig, and the Joker. Malisandres was the one who taught me to control my magic when I was a kid.

Yin, with determination in her voice, expressed her intention to contribute to the fight.

Yin: (With steady) I will fight Marshall. We can't let this tyrant stay in power.

Aria nodded in respect of Yin's decision.

Aria: (With full confidence) Thank you, Yin. We will need all the power we have to defeat them.

Vanessa: (With determination) I will join you, Aria. We need to work together to save your mother.

Zangrid, who was always ready to fight, raised his sword with determination.

Zangrid: (In spirit) We will unite against them. There's no place for Marshall's tyranny here anymore.

They all feel energized and ready for the next challenge. In their union, they have hopes of confronting the strongest members in the Marshall Club and freeing Aria's mother from the clutches of Marshall's evil.

With unanimous determination, the members of The Falcon Guild - Captain Yin, Vice-Captain Zangrid, Vanessa, Aria, and Riley - were getting ready to head to Marshall headquarters. Their mission is to confront Marshall and his three strongest members: Malisandres, Mr. Pig, and the Joker.

However, once they reached Marshall's headquarters, the Marshall Club troops quickly realized their whereabouts. Without a doubt, they attacked The Falcon Guild. Although they were wounded, Zangrid with wind-like speed immediately slashed the Marshall Club's troops, leaving him in a daze.

Zangrid: (With a smug smile) You are so weak!

But that's when Marshall shows up with his three strongest members. He cunningly provoked Aria.

Marshall: (With an evil smile) Aria, have you forgotten your mother?

Marshall only got one word before Yin quickly struck him with a deadly attack. Marshall bounced back, shocked by Yin's anger.

Yin: (With determination) Let me take care of Marshall.

Meanwhile, Zangrid faced the Joker, giving a powerful attack and taking control of the situation. Vanessa and Riley work together to confront Mr. Pigs with their incredible strength and skill.

Aria, who is full of determination, fights Malisandres, her old teacher who used to teach her to control magic. Their battle was a battle full of emotions and great magic power. Aria wants to prove that she has grown stronger than Malisandres taught her.

Amidst this intense fight, The Falcon Guild struggled with their determination to defeat Marshall and his three strongest members. Their mission is to rescue Aria's mother and defeat the marshall.

Marshall: (With a wicked laugh) How are you with Old Man Zeff, Captain of The Falcon?

Yin is shocked by Marshall's mention of their Captain's name.

Yin: (With confusion) You know our Captain?

Marshall, with a sly smile on his face, replied in a stern tone.

Marshall: (Coldly) He is my enemy.

Yin, who was previously calm, felt a sudden tension. He saw a strange change in Marshall. Suddenly, Marshall transformed into a ferocious tiger figure and attacked with shocking speed.

Yin: (With surprise) Wow, deja vu...

Yin recalled the battle against Fenrir, a shape-shifting wolf creature like Marshall. Now, he was faced with an enemy that had similar abilities.

The battle between Yin and Marshall is getting more intense. Marshall moves quickly, testing his skills and Yin reactions, making it difficult to beat up his opponent. But Yin, who knew that many depended on the outcome of this fight, never gave up.

Meanwhile, Aria fights with Malisandres, her former teacher. He spoke sincerely, trying to reach the good side that was once in Malisandres.

Aria: (With determination) Malisandres, you are the kind woman I know, and you also used to teach me to control magic. But this is my own decision! I don't want to be a slave to the Marshall Club anymore!

With her newfound spirit, Aria activated her Ex Hand style, creating a much larger iron hand and beating Malisandres with overwhelming power. However, Malisandres did not retreat just like that. With astonishing speed, he pulled out his sword and deftly blocked Aria's attack.

Elsewhere, Zangrid gets even more annoyed when confronted by the Joker, the clown who keeps playing tricks on him.

Zangrid: (With anger) You stupid clown!

Their fight was a fight between physical strength and cunning tricks. The Joker used tricks and acrobatics to avoid Zangrid's attacks, but Zangrid kept trying hard to find a gap in his opponent's defense.

The battle between Yin and Marshall reaches the height of tension. Marshall moves at an incredible speed, but Yin, with her eyes closed, begins to feel his opponent's movement through his powerful Ki. With Ki's skill, Yin manages to capture Marshall's movements and suddenly, Marshall's tail is strongly attracted by Yin.

Marshall was startled as he was suddenly dragged towards Yin and ended up being thrown onto the ground with incredible force. This left Marshall shaken and struggling to get up.

Yin: (With a confident attitude) I will make sure you leave the Vulture Country.

Meanwhile, Zangrid fought hard against the Joker. The Joker, with his cunning clone magic, confuses Zangrid and continues to play him with seductive tricks.

Joker: (In a dismissive tone) You're really too easy to do, Zangrid.

Zangrid is frustrated and challenged by the Joker's cunning behavior. He had to put in more effort to find a way to overcome his enemy's tricks and fight effectively.

Marshall, after being slammed to the ground by Yin, laughed in a disdainful tone.

Marshall: (In a condescending tone) Your strength is still too weak, Captain Yin.

Suddenly, however, Marshall transforms back into a tiger-man who resembles a bipedal tiger. This terrifying form of his made Yin startled.

Marshall quickly attacked Yin with renewed vigor. His attacks were so powerful that Yin had trouble avoiding them. Eventually, Yin lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Meanwhile, Vanessa and Riley confront Mr. Pig, who has a muscular build and wears a pig mask. Vanessa tries to use her root magic to bind Mr. Pig, but easily his muscle veins tore at his roots.

Riley, seeing this situation, decides to take action. He used his weapon, an expert sniper, and shot from a great distance. The bullet fired by Riley hit Mr.'s leg. Pig, cause the enemy to whimper in pain.

Although Mr. Pig was still stiff, the wounds he was experiencing began to interfere with his movement. Vanessa and Riley seek to work together to overcome their formidable foe, in the hope that together they can find Mr. Pig and beat him.

As Yin lost her consciousness after Marshall's brutal attack, Marshall laughed in a disdainful tone. He was convinced that Yin had been defeated and turned to leave.

However, as soon as Marshall had just left, something strange happened. The sound of Yin's heart beating with a different sound, and suddenly the sound of flutes and drums filling the air. Ki belonging to Yin began to develop rapidly, creating an extremely powerful aura around him.

Marshall, who was precisely frightened by this sudden change, could not hide his shock.

Marshall: (By surprise) What the hell is this?

Suddenly, the previously lost Yin regained consciousness with an angry look on her face, mixed with blood flowing from her wounds. He had reached a new stage in his Ki control, and his energy was extremely strong.

With overwhelming force, Yin jumped into the air and charged at Marshall with a furious attack. His attack was so powerful that Marshall bounced backwards, severely injured.

The battle between Yin and Marshall is heating up again, but now, Yin has discovered a new and surprising power. He is determined to stop Marshall and defend the Vulture Country from his evil rule, no matter what the risk.

Marshall, who had been shocked by the sudden change in Yin power, saw Yin's face with his vague vision. He saw a Yin shadow that turned into an extremely mysterious form, and this sensation made him feel terrified.

Yin: (In a dismissive tone) What scares you, huh?

The entire body of Yin was enveloped by the extremely powerful Ki, creating an inexplicable mysterious aura. Yin no longer looked like her previous self.

Marshall, though fearful, responds to Yin's challenge by getting up and confronting it with determination. The two of them clashed against each other with incredible force, resulting in a great shock that made the Marshall Club building tremble.

In this fight, both strength and persistence made the fight even more profound and dangerous. The once magnificent Marshall Club building is now in disarray as a result of the power unleashed by these two feuding leaders.

This battle was a fierce battle that would determine the fate of the Vulture Country. Yin, with her strength and mysteriousness, is determined to stop the evil forces of Marshall and restore peace to their land.

As a result of the intense fight between Yin and Marshall that had left the Marshall Club building in disarray, the people of Vulture became worried and wondered what was going on there. They saw the rumbling of the battle from a distance, and uncertainty engulfed them. This destruction became a symbol of the fierce battle that was taking place inside the club.

On the other side of the fight, Zangrid managed to defeat the Joker in a dramatic fashion. With the speed and power of his sword, Zangrid split the Joker's body into two halves. Zangrid's face was full of anger as he faced the Joker who was buried in two.

Zangrid: (With an angry expression) You really are a troublesome clown.

Meanwhile, Aria managed to overwhelm Malisandres. With her incredible creativity, Aria creates a new style that she calls "Ex Elephant." He created a giant elephant made of iron and metal, and the elephant was subject to Aria's control.

The iron elephant shocked Malisandres and quickly stepped on him, making him lose consciousness. The powerful and skilled Malisandres have been conquered by the unexpected magic power of Aria.

Along with the destruction of the Marshall Club building, many rocks and debris were scattered around the battle. Yin who had previously fallen, rose again with a burning spirit. He looked at the destruction around him and felt it growing stronger.

Marshall, who was also severely injured from Yin's attack, could no longer continue the fight. He was finally unconscious.

Without hesitation, Yin dashed towards Marshall, then jumped high up in the air. Determinedly, he beat Marshall with his new style called "Tiger Collier Punch!"

The punch was so strong and fast that it sounded a loud bang. Marshall crashed into the ground with great force. This blow was an expression of Yin's anger and determination to protect the Vulture Country from evil.

This fierce and emotional battle ended in victory for Yin and the Falcon Guild. 

Vanessa and Riley, after a long and fierce fight against Mr. Pig, finally got to beat him. Mr. Pig is a very troublesome enemy due to his hard and strong body, making them difficult to attack him effectively. But with teamwork and perseverance, they managed to overcome all obstacles.

After the battle ended, Vanessa and Riley lay on the ground, panting. They laughed at each other, celebrating their hard-to-achieve victory.

Vanessa: (With a smile) Finally, we made it, Riley.

Riley: (Gleefully) Yes, it was a tough fight, but we went through it together.

The two of them were relieved to have overcome one of the strongest enemies of the Marshall Club. Their victory is a testament to the strength of their friendship and teamwork. 

Yin came out of the ruins of the Marshall Club building proudly, raising one hand upwards as a sign of victory. Zangrid smiled next to him, and Aria, Vanessa, and Riley smiled along. They have all passed a difficult test, and it is time to celebrate.
