n“See, I told you the entrance would be somewhere here.” Shadow turns around and tells everyone with a huge grin on his face.

n“Alright, alright, yes you were correct, you want a medal or something?” Reign tells him with an annoyed look on his face.

n“Well actually-” Shadow starts talking but gets pushed aside by Tank. “Come on, let’s enter already.”

n“Tch, alright, let’s go, after you big fella” Shadow gestures at the passage with his hand and smiles at Tank who shakes his head in annoyance. Putting his shield in front he enters and sees a staircase that leads downwards.

n“I guess down there is where the hidden room is located.” He says while slowly going down. When he and the others arrive at the bottom of the stairs they see a big wooden gate, pushing it carefully Tank enters first with his shield in front.

nDing!

nSecret Chamber found, dungeon rewards increased.

nThe sight that welcomed them was a surprising one. The basement was far larger than they thought it would be, it stretched across the whole building and beyond, being about 1000 square meters big.

nNumerous mana crystals were piled inside, forming small hills everywhere, gold coins were also in a big number together with many weapons and broken armors. At the very center however, they could see a hobgoblin, one larger than any hobgoblin they had fought before.

n< Lvl9 Elite Berserk Hobgoblin Captain >

nStrength : 32

nAgility : 2?

nEndurance : ?

nVitality : ?

nWillpower : ?

nSpirit : ?

nDescription: A rare species of a goblins evolution, a hobgoblin captain is one that is a leader, having strong fighting capabilities and a brain that works better than an average goblin’s these monsters can be a big annoyance to fight.

nFurther Details: Amongst numerous captains, there is a chance of an Elite captain being found, these are much more intelligent and far stronger than normal. Furthermore, in extremely rare cases the captain can be made berserk, this can happen during battle and their power will go over the roof, the drawback being their thoughts that go down, however, a small amount of them may never go back from the state, becoming even more powerful and bloodthirsty.

n“So my chieftain was right, a group of rats really did come down here.” The captain turns to them and says with a big smile on his face. “That’s nice, I was really getting bored standing here.”

nStanding 2 meters tall the hobgoblin was packed with muscles, his body covered in many scars as he only wore a leather skirt to cover his legs. In each hand, he held a short battle-axe, both of which were already chipped after prolonged use.

n“So little rats, will you keep me company?” The giant hobgoblin smiles deeply and licks his lips while slowly approaching his enemies, there was no hesitation in his steps, no fear in his eyes, he was the strongest soldier under the chieftain and had fought over a hundred battles, losing none.

nLooking at the approaching captain everyone got tense and battle-ready, they could see it, the aura of death and bloodlust was shrouding him, each step he took seemed to shake the earth itself, that was the power the enemy in front of them possessed.

n“What the hell, this guy isn’t even the final boss, and yet his so strong.” Shadow gulps nervously, excluding the tiger this opponent truly was the strongest they have ever faced, none came close to him, simply thinking about the fact that the next opponent is an even stronger monster made everyone incredibly anxious.

n“Since you won’t move then I will make the first move rats, I am the axe of the chieftain, Torkyal, remember my name, as it is the last one you will ever hear.” The captain Torkyal says, being surprisingly eloquent considering he was in permanent berserk state. Bending his knees he jumps at them, putting his axes behind his head he slashes down with all his might.

n“Haaa!” Tank gets in front of everyone and readies his shield. The pressure he felt from Torkyal was incredible, even before the strike came he felt as if a hand was suffocating him.

nBam!

nThe 2 axes hit the shield, making Tank slide back 4 meters, his hands shaking from the power of the hit, the shield he so loved bent where it got hit, it was bad, Torkyals strength was even more tyrannical than they thought.

nSwish

nBeast launches an arrow while Reign and Wolf attack, charging from either side of their enemy. Shadow stays in the shadows which were plentiful in number here, waiting for a chance to attack Torkyal.

n“Hahahahaahaha, yes, come, come to me, all of you!” Torkyal laughs maniacally, brandishing his axes he deflects the arrow and swiftly blocks the attacks from Reign and Wolf. “Not bad, you brats have some power there, hahahahahaha!” Laughing again his eyes widen as his huge muscles swell again, drawing back his arms a bit he finally pushes back, making both of them slide back.

n“Damn it, I know his strength stat is high, but this is just absurd!” Reign curses as he looks ahead, pushing back Tank in such fashion, deflecting Beast’s arrow and then finally pushing both him and Wolf back, he thought only the final boss would have such power.

n“There’s no other way, Reign, Tank, don’t hold back, let’s see if he can block all three of us!” Wolf shouts as flames suddenly form along his blade. The now recovered Tank nods and starts charging towards Torkyal. Lightning dances on Reigns’s blade as he runs too.

nSwish Swish

nA charged arrow and two beautiful daggers come from the right and left respectively, passing by them and arriving at Torkyals side. Again he uses his axes to deflect them but staggers a bit when he does so with the arrow, compared to the previous one this one was half-charged, being far faster and stronger than before.

nBull Charge

nTank attacks first, and the huge red bull again forms around him.

n“Hahahaha good, good, you guys don’t disappoint!” Torkyal shouts in delight and spins around while shouting. “Bloody Swipe!”

nBoth of his axes shine with an ominous red light, leaving a trail of blood in the air before colliding with the bull and Tank.

nBam

nTank widens his eyes in disbelief as his charge was stopped, the only thing he managed to do was make Torkyal take two steps back, his face still smiling with delight, even though his hands were now slightly shaking from the blow.

nFlame Slash

nLightning Stab

nReign and Wolfs attacks come right after, the eerie green light of the fire shines from the right side while a bright blue light shines from the left. Both of them were in the air, going straight at Torkyal.

n“Rise of Blood!” Torkyal shouts as he bends down and crosses his hands, his muscles bulging even more. Even the blood flowing in his body could be seen through his veins which looked like they would explode any second. With a shout he swings at his sides, bringing two pillars of blood with his axes.

n(As this was a bit harder to explain, just imagine the scene when Whitebeard arrived at Marineford and used his tremor fruit for the first time, it’s pretty much the same posture and move)

nThe blood collides with the lightning and fire, being almost equally matched to them, but failing to completely block them as the two swords pass through it and hit the axes, making Torkyal give his all to stop them from reaching his head.

nTank doesn’t miss the opportunity as he swings his mace hit him from the side, cracking one or two of his ribs in the process. Losing balance and strength for a second he fails to hold off the swords from reaching him, trying to dodge he falls backwards, but earns two big cuts on his chest. Blood gushes from them as he stands with his head bent down.

n“Ha, ha, ha, hahahahaha!” From a silent laugh he suddenly starts laughing with all of his might as he looks straight at them, there was no emotion in his eyes except excitement, the wounds didn’t matter, him getting overpowered didn’t matter, all that Torkyal lived for was to fight, everything else was secondary, even his chieftains orders.

n“Great, hahahahahaha, you guys might even kill, hahahahahaha, how exciting, come, give me more!” Torkyal shouts happily and charges at them.

nSwish

nAnother arrow was released, this time however he doesn’t even take notice of it as it hits his shoulder, he simply continues with his charge.

nSwish Swish

nShadows two daggers arrive as well, being aimed at his head, this time he swings his right axe to block them, even though he didn’t care for wounds, he wasn’t simply going to allow his enemies to kill him before he had his fun.

n“Got you!” Shadow exclaims as he clasps his hands.

n“Shadow Blades!”

nDescription: Using the power of the shadows the user can conjure up to four blades forged from the shadows of his weapons, the blades can be released at any time and will disappear after hitting their target, by leveling up the skill the user can conjure more blades.

nFrom the shades of the two daggers, four more daggers suddenly show up, passing below his axe they hit Torkyal in the chest and abdomen, dispersing right after and leaving four stab wounds. Torkyal winces in pain but puts his left axe up in an effort to block another attack

nSlice

nHis forearm, shoulder and a small part of his neck start bleeding while a trail of lightning was left, behind him Reign attacks again, fully clad in lightning.

n“What?!” The speed of his opponent astonished Torkyal as he was barely able to follow Reign moving, turning around he tries blocking the attack but only gets a big cut on his left side, going deep and showing a part of his ribs.

nGroaning in pain he tries to attack but only spits out blood as his back gets cut by Wolfs flaming sword, the fire burns around the wound and makes it worse.

nAn arrow flies over, daggers were thrown, Tanks mace drops down in fury, all of these attacks make their way to him, his current state doesn’t allow him to block any of them, suddenly the strong and scary elite was turned into a punching bag to them, mere seconds away from death.

n“You bastards, die!!” Torkyal eyes go bloodshot as he shouts in anger. “Blood Nova!” 𝒷𝒹ℴ𝓿𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

nA force was sent from the inside of Torkyal body, materializing as a bloody sphere around him, with a shout the sphere explodes and throws the three attackers back.

nReign and Wolf hold their stomachs as they slowly stand up, the final attack from Torkyal managed to do a bit of damage to them, Tank, on the other hand, thanks to his superb defense and body manages to only get some light superficial injuries.

nTorkyal was still standing, his axes were on the ground as he didn’t have enough strength to hold them anymore, his whole body was riddled with wounds and was bloody from head to toe. Turning his head with difficulty he speaks. “Well done… rats… that was a superb fight.”

nFinishing his sentence he coughs up blood and struggles to talk again.

n“D-do me a favor, finish me off will you, you lightning bastard.” He looks straight at Reign as he tells him with a smile on his face. “I’ve fought enough, time to rest now.”

nReign comes in front of him and nods, even though he was their enemy and a monster, he still earned all of their respect with his strength and fighting style, not backing down for even a moment.

nRising his sword up Reign swings it sideways and decapitates him, ending the battle.
