Invasion

Kid Pirates Hideout - 8AM

"Yes? Okay...yeah..that'll be handy. Alright. We'll let you know when we return. Goodbye."

Eren hung up the phone and turned to the group in the van, having left Atami Sunrise Beach. He was on the phone to Yugi from the shelter where the King of Games had made an arrangement.

"So what did Yugi say?" Asked Yusei.

"He said he sent us coordinates to where the Overlord's nest might be located. It's on this very abandoned island out in the sea." The brown haired male explained.

"But we need a boat to get us there." Said Denji.

"We got that covered too." Replied Eren. "We'll be meeting at the docks. But in the meantime, we need some parts for our sake gun, we have been putting together."

"But where are we gonna get parts?" Asked Izuku.

Eren's eyes darkened as he pointed to a location on the map. The group's eyes widened at what they saw.

"Best you be careful." He warned. "That's the hideout of the Kid Pirates, led by Eustass Kid and his first mate, Killer. They're mean ones."

Izuku's eyes grew wide with horror as did Tanjiro's and Nezuko's. The thought of encountering the captain of the Kid Pirates was an absolute nightmare though it was nothing compared to the invasion.

"Are they that bad?" Asked Tanjiro nervously as Nezuko shuddered in terror.

"They're way worse." Replied Denji.

"MMM?!"

"But as long as you don't get caught, you should be okay." Added Jotaro. "Once you have everything we need, meet us at the docks where someone will take us to the island where the overlord's nest is located."

Izuku hesitated for a moment, as did the Kamado siblings but with a newfound determination, nodded in accepting.

The trio would be in for a way more dangerous mission of their lives before the final battle.

~~~

Out in the forest, Izuku, Tanjiro and Nezuko were walking along the path. Twigs cracks and pebbles shifted under foot as the trio walked on, hoping to find their destination.

"There it is."

The trio's eyes widened at the Kid Pirates' hideout. It looked to be like a castle. This was definitely the place to get what they needed.

"We better be careful." Tanjiro warned. "Who knows what Kid and Killer are capable of?"

From inside the hideout, loud rock music began playing. The one hobby, Kid would do on a daily basis, especially during an invasion.

Izuku smirked. "Perfect. The music will serve as a distraction. This should be easy."

The Kamado siblings nodded in agreement as they headed inside a secret passageway.

Inside of the hideout was very dark, lit only by candles in each and every hallway. It was enough light for the trio to navigate their way around and to stick to the shadows, in case any of the pirate crew members would be out. Taking hushed nimble steps, the trio looked around for any rooms to find any parts.

"There's gotta be somewhere to get parts." Whispered Izuku.

His hand ran along the wall until he felt what happened to be a door. Opening it, the trio looked inside to see a workshop.

"This room has the parts we need." Tanjiro grinned. "We've hit the jackpot."

"Alright, now to get what we need and get out of here."

Opening their sack, the trio got to gathering the parts needed for their weapon. Nezuko kept an eye out in case anyone was coming. A few seconds had passed until the group got what they needed.

"Okay. Now to get out of this place." Remarked Izuku.

Leaving the workshop, the trio moved to leave but upon exiting, Tanjiro accidentally knocked over a pile of parts, causing a loud clattering and giving them away. Izuku's heart flew into his throat at the sound of Kid's angry voice yelling out.

"What the hell is this?! You have a death wish?!"

Tanjiro gasped as he heard footsteps charging down the halls. "Run!"

The three didn't have to be told twice as they made a dash to escape the hideout as fast as their legs themselves, carrying the bag of parts. If there was one thing about Kid worth fearing, it would be his bad side. They ran and didn't stop until they were out of the hideout and straight into the forest.

"Hurry!" Izuku yelled. "Before they find us!"

The Kamado siblings nodded as they kept on running until the hideout and the angry voice behind them finally vanished. They didn't look back.

Finally, at long last, they slowed, trying to get their breath back and quell the pounding in their chests.

"Thought we'd never make it out." Tanjiro panted.

Nezuko nodded in agreement before seeing headlights approaching.

The trio knew that the van was going to take them to the docks for their source of transportation.

The whole gang would be in for the final fight for their lives and the fate of their world in their hands.
