"Okay so your... Kaneki." A man wearing thick, square glasses said looking at the paperwork that was neatly stacked on his desk. "Indeed I am. I was sent here by my superiors to handle a problem you seem unable to do so on your own." Kaneki smiled as he tilted his head slightly, causing some of his dreadlocks to shift, covering the right side of his face. The man fixed his glasses and cleared his throat. "Well it's not that we cannot handle it, we just don't have the information needed to engage this type of enemy." The Marine desk jockey stammered trying to prove that they were being cautious. Kaneki chuckled some while he ran his right hand through his dreads, gently moving them back passed his shoulders.
"As amusing as your rebuttal was, I have to go put this so called "Lion" down for the honor of Mariejois and her children who live around the world." Kaneki said waving at the the Marine secretary. As he made his way out the door he had a second mission, that was to find the commanding officer of this base and to rectify his failures. "Well then, if I were a group of sushi where would I hide from the hand of justice?" The young bounty hunter would ponder. Looking up at the beautiful, blue, sun kissed sky, he could hear commotion coming from east of his current direction.
“I wonder what’s going on down the street?” Kaneki turned his attention in the direction of the shouting. “Oh well might as well investigate, who knows maybe these chum buckets will be nice enough to be waiting for me.” He smiled and cheerfully made his way to midtown.

The dreaded bounty hunter continued down the street, he noticed as he drew closer to the scene the shouts that were unclear were now cries for help. “The Nemean Lion is here! Run, hide, save yourself!” Kaneki could hear a civilian say with pure terror in his voice. He continued to walk at the pace he was already walking, not really in a hurry to make his way through a panicking crowd. “Well whatever this thing is it must be terrible if it has these people cowering like this.” Kaneki thought to himself as a young woman whipped around the corner ramming her forehead into his. The impact caused the two of them to go unconscious, falling back on the cobble stone road next to each other.
“Wha… what happened to me…” Kaneki slowly opened his eyes seeing only a set of amethyst colored eyes staring at him. Caught off guard he tried to stand up and get some distance but ended up hitting heads with the woman again causing him to hit his head on the street...again. “Ummm… are you okay? I am terribly sorry that...I... knocked...you... out.” The young woman said nervously, closing her eyes and rubbing the back of her head. Kaneki was dazed but could lift himself up and shook his head as the throbbing pain radiating from the back of his skull.
When he finally got a good look at the woman he collided with he realized she was a very unique looking young lady. She was a petite, attractive teenage girl. Her hair puffy and light pink, curling inwards at the end with a few fly-a ways. She had amethyst eyes which peer through round-framed glasses, and her outfit consists of a white collared shirt with a pink checkered tie and a miniskirt with a similar pattern.

Kaneki smiled, rubbing his head he stood to his feet and extended his hand to help up the pink haired girl he had just met. “Are you okay? I apologize I was distracted by the now, very dim cries for help.” Kaneki said as the young girl grasped his hand and he pulled her to her feet accidently bringing her only a few inches away from his face. He could see that she had very clear skin, it was most likely as soft as her hands were. The two of them blushed and turned their heads away from each other. “Whoops sorry about that.” Kaneki nervously chuckled as he took a step back.
“It's okay. But I must advise you, the Nemean Lion is in the town square and they are engaged in a brawl with some marine troopers.” The young lady said, showing she was truly afraid of the brute that Kaneki had come to deal with. “Don’t worry. I will go have a chat with this “terrifying pussycat” and right the wrongs that have been committed today against the World Governments people.” Kaneki said as he continued down the road throwing up the peace sign to the woman he had met.
“My name is Keiko! Good luck!” The pink haired beauty shouted through cupped hands in the direction of Kaneki. Turning around but, still walking Kaneki grinned and shouted, “Kaneki, Bounty Hunter for Mariejois! It was a pleasure meeting you Keiko-san!” He then lifted his ivory wool scarf covering his mouth and nose pressing on forward to deal with the cat.

Kaneki was a half a block away when he noticed two fishmen were glaring at him so hard he could feel it piercing through his chest like a bullet. “Hey these guys look like they know something about what’s going on, might as well try and be friendly.” Kaneki said to himself as he placed his hands in his pockets and continued on. The fishman on the right appeared to be some kind of bottle nose dolphin hybrid, while the other was a squid hybrid with ten arms, each suction cupped arm had a fist with brass knuckles securely gripped in each. The dolphin had a spear with bells knotted right below the spearhead. “Hey you hairless ape what e’ hell ya think yar goin!?” The dolphin spearman laughed as he pointed his spear at Kaneki.
This was a bit of an inconvenience for the young bounty hunter, he did not want to resort violence to end this dispute but if it was all they would listen to he would happily obliged. Kaneki stopped in his tracks the tip of the spear poking into his chest. “Well then if you assist, I just assumed you cared about your life. Goro Goro no Mi: Raijin Ya!” Kaneki shouted as he thrust his right arm forward parallel with the spear and released a burst of lightening the hit not only the dolphin fishman but electrocute the squid fishman as well. He noticed that the dolphin man’s grip had loosened on the spear so, Kaneki, grab the spear as he brought his right arm back, spinning it one time and thrusting it forward skewering both of his opponents like shish kabob.
It was an instant victory as crimson life fluid began to stream from the sides of their mouths and noses. “See we could have done it my way and I wouldn’t have electrocuted you, foolish chum of the sea.” Kaneki chuckled as he now understood what he was going to be up against.

“Hey you little bastard what did you do to our boys!?” Kaneki could hear someone or something shouting from the end of the ally that was straight ahead of him. He was a hammerhead shark fishman and two identical fishmen came running towards Kaneki and their fallen comrades. “We are the Sledgehammer Brothers and we are going to beat you down and eat you alive!” The group of triplets chanted as if they had been rehearsing that very line their entire lives. Each of the brothers had a sledgehammer as their weapon which appeared to be made out of pure iron. The hammerhead brothers on the left and right of the one in the center drw their sledgehammers and bore their teeth at the dreaded bounty hunter before them.
“I’m going to smash your head in until is nothing but a red skid mark on the street.” The hammer head fishman snarled through gritted teeth.
Kaneki ripped the spear from the caracsses of the two fishman he had just killed and rotated the blade counterclockwise three times before slamming it on the cobblestone street and pointing it towards his three new opponents. “Well then tuna breath how about you put your money, where your dental nightmare mouth is?” Kaneki said through a devilish smile, his tone completely changed from the calm, cool voice from before. “That’s it you die now boy!” The two hammerhead shark brothers coordinated an attack, one charged forward directly at Kaneki, while the other ran horizontally a few feet then cutting on a straight path behind Kaneki to attack his rear flank.
“Very good but all three of you should have attacked me.” Kaneki snickered as he focused his vision on the hammer head brother who was still standing their and threw the spear he was holding passed the charging brothers head and into the chest of his idol brother, causing blood to spray from his mouth. The brother who was coming directly at Kaneki’s twelve was now slowing his pace as he thought the spear was for him. Kaneki then dropped to the ground to the fact that the third brother had already began his attack swinging the sledgehammer and crowing his brother in the head smashing his right eye in sending him reeling to the ground.
“Brothers noo!” The only standing hammerhead brother shouted as he realized what he had done! “And this is the end of the Sledgehammer Brothers!” Kaneki mocked as he sprung himself up throwing an upper deep into the chin of the last fishman brother. The attack caused the fishman to drop his sledgehammer and stammer back a few steps. Kaneki then closed the gap between him and his opponent unleashing a devastating spinning right kick into the neck of the fishman knocking him on the ground. The dreaded bounty hunter landed on the cobblestone street realizing he had taken down five opponents in a matter of minutes. “So this is the power of the Goro Goro no Mi. I must make my superiors proud.” Kaneki said looking down at his hand and then at the coughing third Sledgehammer Brother.
He picked up the sledgehammer that was on the ground next to him and walked over to his victim. “Well it's time to put the children to sleep. Say Hell-O to your family for me. Get it Hell?” Kaneki paused as he lifted the hammer above his head and waited for the shark man to laugh. “Whatever, it was funny to me.” He said delivery absolute justice to the Hammerhead fishman.

Kaneki released his grip on the sledgehammer that was firmly wedged into the skull of dead Hammerhead hybrid. “Now than time to do to the pussycat, what I did to these pussies.” Kaneki snickered as he found the slaughtering of those weaker than him humerous. With fishman blood staining his clothing, face, and scarf he noticed three more fish faced hybrids standing a few meters away and it seemed they had something that look like a woman with a cutlass at her throat. “Okay boyo, the funs over, you think you can just slaughter the Nemean Lion’s crew and just walk away? You must be the dumbest monkey I have ever met in my entire existence!” An approximate eight foot Anglerfishman yelled to the dreaded bounty hunter.
“Actually I think I can and if you bastards are with him take a good look.” Kaneki said as he turned his back to group three pointing out the bodies that littered the street. “I will do to you what I did to…” Before he could finish Kaneki’s jaw was pushed violently forward as his feet left the ground and he went skidding across the stone street and into a vegetable stand completely obliterating it. “Shut yee damn mouth boyo! We are gonna kill this girl of yees first then the captain is gonna feast on ya! How does that sound!?” The Anglerfishman said cracking his knuckles after launching the cheap shot on Kaneki. “Hey boss this will only take a second this kids nothing but a pushover.” The fishman would say to the Captain, who was the Nemean Lion.
Kaneki lifted his body up and spit out some blood that had collected in his mouth. “So that’s how we are going to play are we? Well then...Goro Goro no Mi: One Million Volt Vari!!!” Kaneki roared as electricity encased his body releasing wild arms of lightning around the area he was in. “I am going to crush you and cast your ashes into the wind.” Kaneki said as the electricity he was producing looked like how the sky appears during a violent thunderstorm. The Anglerfishman cracked his neck and charged kaneki. “You think i am afraid of you because you consumed a Devil Fruit? I am a fishman nothing in this world can compare to my power now DIE!” The Anglerfishman threw a right cross hitting Kaneki in the chin, causing a surge of electricity to stun him long enough for Kaneki to counter attack. With his left arm Kaneki quickly moved his arm from his side to the throat of the fishman electrocuting him even more. He then cocked his right arm back and delivered a devastating punch to the gut of his opponent and finish with a straight punch to the nose sending him flying backwards incapacitated.
Kaneki noticed that the girl they had captured was the one he had met earlier, Keiko. “I will extinguish you all if you lay a finger on her! Goro Goro no Mi: Shundō!!!” Kaneki vanished from the sight of the two remaining fishman, reappearing in front of the Nemean Lions Vice - Captain unleashing a hard right hook into the side of his sperm whale head knocking him into the building they were next too. Keiko dropped to the ground as she was already unconscious when she was their captive.
Kaneki stood with lightning dancing all around him next to the Nemean Lion with his eyes focused on Keiko. “So are you the Nemean Lion and did you hurt her?” Kaneki asked in a serious tone clenching his fist tightly.

“You're lucky I didn’t slit her throat you no named little runt. I am the Nemean Lion, the fishman who plundered a Marine vessel and lived to tell the tale. My wrap sheet is so grand I rival some even on the Grandline. You know what is?” The Nemean Lion arrogantly boasted as he crossed his arms. He wore a traditional kimono which was black and had his name's kanji on the back, his quills protruded from his back, arms, and legs. “I don’t care all I know is that your unjust way of living ends today and you will be held on trial for your crimes against the world government.” Kaneki, who was still cloaked in electricity, turned to punch the Nemean Lion in his lower jaw but was instead met three quills that pierced his arm instead. Blood sprayed from the wound and the red mist sprinkled to the ground as dreaded bounty hunters left arm fell limp. “It’s because I’m highly venomous which you can now see causes paralyzation i am in a league above you Devil Fruit users and I will show you that your arrogance in those powers is your greatest weakness!” The Nemean Lion mocked as he pushed an open fin palm into the abdomen of Kaneki. “Fishman Juijutsu: Uchimizu!” He added as used the water droplets in the air to send the open Kaneki flying into a build ten meters away.
Rubble, dust, and stone ground was the only thing left of the building he had collided into. Pulling himself up from the attack he was covered in a few minor cuts and bruising in his abdomen. “Wow that guy hit’s like a cannon. No worries.” Kaneki said wiping the blood from his mouth and looking at it. “I just have to incapacitate him with one arm, which will be like shooting fish in a tiny barrel.” He smirked as his left arm lay lifeless at his side. “Goro Goro no Mi: Raijin Ya!” He said as a lightening bolt escaped from his right arm heading on a direct course form the Nemean Lion. “You fool! At least have some honor and die!” The fishman captain would say jumping into the air and preparing to launch another Uchimizu at his opponent. “No you fool today i live and you!” Kaneki said through his gritted teeth as he completely cloaked his arms in lightning. “Goro Goro no Mi!” Kaneki yelled as he lept into the air to meet his opponent.
“Goodbye kiddo!” Juijutsu: Uchimizu!” The Nemean Lion cried loudly as the droplets of water from the air began to collect. “RAIJIN’S DRUM!” Kaneki shouted with great intensity as he punched through the quills on the face of the venomous fishman , connecting with his jaw and releasing a shockwave that would force him crashing towards the cobblestone street down bellowing cracking it, leaving Nemean Lion unconscious with many of his quills broken.
Kaneki landed on the ground below next to his fallen opponent, both arms paralyzed and unable to be lifted lifted his lightning imbued leg up to smash his KO’d foes face in when he could hear a familiar voice cry out to him. “Please Kaneki-kun do not take his life you have won!” She cried out which stopped the dreaded bounty hunter, bringing him back to his senses and dropping to his knees. The soft skin of pink hair girl wrapped around the injured Kaneki. His body no longer cloaked in electricity revealed the many wounds he had picked up from the fight. “As long as you are okay Keiko-san then I will just rest right here until the...Marines... get…” Kaneki passed out as this was his first time using his Goro Goro no Mi powers in actual combat. Keiko would wait by his side until reinforcements came and he was taken to the hospital in downtown Loguetown, where he would recover from his wounds.
