"Maybe we will, but there is no justice in harming someone who hasn't done evil. If I had just let him walk away with those wounds, or not let him leave at all, I would not have been a true king, but a tyrant who squashes all forms of rebellion before they even sprout.", King Harkinian says as he turns to Zelda. He then smiles warmly at both her and Link.
"Now, Zelda, Link, what are you doing here? And if this is not Gamelon, where is this?"
"Haha! The Spanish Inquisition cannot be bested. Now confess to your crimes, heretic, and be thrown out of the ring and into defeat!"
Ximénez approaches Yashiro, attempting to grab him by his legs and throw him out of the ring. Which probably isn't a form of disqualification in this tournament, but hitting the ground besides the ring will probably still hurt like hell.

"This is a realm called the Arena. It's a place where realities collide, and where fate chose our incarnations to play out our destinies."
She says that last part with a bit of viciousness.
Yashiro rolls away from the grab and switches out to Chris, who lunges forward with a straight elbow drive. If it hits, he will flip back at high speed, leaving behind a blue afterimage of his strike, then do a front-flipping leap forward into a diagonal stomp kick.
If the kick hits, he will bounce off and strike a pose in midair before doing a Power Dunk-esque diving kick, leaving an afterimage of his pose!

"He's gearing up for war."
"Oah! How did I cross realms? I came here on a boat.", he says. Looking back, that boat is still there.
"With all of us here, who will protect Gamelon? Impa has the Triforce of Wisdom, but that won't be enough."
This time it's Ximénez' turn to get combo'd, getting hit by the elbow drive, diagonal stomp kick and diagonal diving kick, after which Ximénez falls on the ground, his hat falling off of his head.
He's not down for the count, but he'll definitely need a moment to get back up.

- On the optimistic side...
- Unfortunately...
Link points out that the Ganon Harkinian just slew might've been the one that was attacking Gamelon, and if they've just killed him here, then he won't be able to bother them back home anymore, right?
Zelda nods. "Spoiler alert: Duke Onkled would've betrayed you if you made it to him."
Chris intends to see to it that Ximénez is down for the count.
He does another over-the-top pose, then does a backflip kick. If it hits, he will initiate his Twister Drive, knocking Ximénez up with another afterimage divekick, then continuing to juggle him with the 'backflip kick -> divekick' pattern, doing more flip-kicks each time before bringing it all down with a final divekick!
"He's gearing up for war."
"Very true, my boy.", King Harkinian says, after which he hears what Zelda says and lets out another 'OAH'.
"Duke Onkled, a traitor? I... I can't believe he would..."
Oh, he's genuinely saddened by this news.
He quickly raises his arm.
"Biggles!"
Biggles quickly comes in with an assist, using the soft cushions to block the first attack as Ximénez gets back up.
Unfortunately, Biggles accidentally drops the soft cushions after the attack, and as such he is the one put through Chris' combo instead, ending up on the ground himself now, half-dazed as he crawls back to his waiting spot off of the stage.
Meanwhile, right as Chris makes his final attack, Ximénez tries to bash into him, and, if successful, will try to grab his clothes to prevent him from falling, then throw him to the side so that he'll fall with a greater impact than he normally would have.

Rie's bait works, the chains rushing to Spawn's defense only for her echo to deal the finishing blow.
"Damn it..." He manages to groan out before collapsing.
K.O!
Hellboy and Vergil regroup, watching as one of their opponents becomes a dragon and the other two proceed to ride her.
"Huh." Hellboy mutters.
"One of our number is defeated. Only we remain."
"I noticed. Well, here goes nothing."
Hellboy draws Excalibur, his aura rushing through him and into the blade, setting it ablaze. Vergil breathes in deep, demonic energy manifesting itself around him, before exhaling, resulting in a flash of blue light.
"This..."
He activates his Devil Trigger, revealing his demonic form
.
"is power!"
The two charge towards their opponents, Vergil summoning and launching a handful of daggers at the bugbears before vanishing and reappearing above them. He unsheathes the Yamato, which now courses with energy, and slashes downward at them.
Hellboy leaps into the air towards Dagrún's head and swings the Right Hand at her head as he's mid-jump.
King of the Monsters
Zelda is surprised by the reaction, given she only knew that her timeline's King sentenced Onkled to Cool and Unusual Punishment without hesitation. "Don't worry, I'm sure he did it out of desperation rather than plotting against you..."
Chris is bashed and thrown down, but he quickly jumps to his feet and does another divekick.

As the cameras(?) pass through an inexplicable wall of Japanese panel doors, there stands Undyne, back to the center stage and a fiery glow emitting from her good eye. Her teammates, Iron Tager and Silver Sonic, wait against the walls.
She turns towards the stage and conjures a spear before letting out her mightiest "NGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Divine Burden
Luffy stares back at Undyne, looking mightily confused, until he just decide to kind of match her!
Ourrgghhh.
He pump himself up a bit and then roar, using his Conqueror Haki to coat the entire arena and more in a red tint, forming a mighty shockwave that, while seemingly harmless, will cause those who lack willpower to pass out drooling! Red "lightning" strike, the air becomes heavy and the wood creaks before it stops!
Luckily, that display should affect none of the persons present there, besides those who lack willpower. It doesn't react the other arenas.
OOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Ok let's go! He says, taking a stance, quickly hopping from one leg to another while holding his arms up.
Huh, I fought a lot of fish people before, but they never had spears!
Fallout 2? More like Fallout 2 bad.
"Even so, he could have come to me for help. I would have given it. Now all that happened is that Ganon made people suffer."
His gaze hardens.
"When I find him, he will be punished for his deceitful actions. If it truly was desperation rather than malice, I will let him live, but he will be punished all the same."
This time Ximénez gets hit and staggers back, swinging his arms around wildly to try to keep his balance.
When he manages to keep his balance, he suddenly goes for a sweeping kick towards Chris' legs.

"Right. Until then, let's get to that palace we found."
Link nods and whistles for Epona.
Chris crouches low and blocks the kick, but he's left open to an attack to his head as a result.
"Then this'll be a learning experience!" declares Undyne, pointing her spear at Luffy with a wicked grin.
She throws the spear at him, then conjures a new one in her hand, leaping at him with a diagonal slash!
"He's gearing up for war."
"A palace? Very well, I will come along.", Harkinian says. He then pauses.
"... I do not have a horse of my own to ride on."
Ximénez immediately tries to take advantage of this with, quite blunty, a punch to the head.
If this is successful, he'll try to make use of the momentary stun to grab his hat off of the ground and slam it against Chris' face to obstruct his vision.

Luffy tries to grab the spear after dodging, and throw it back (though without bothering to reverse it beforehand, meaning he toss the "butt" of it at Undyne) before dashing forth with a regular punch!
If it hit, then Luffy extend his arm! Gomu Gomu No Pistol! He yells, hurling his arm forward to try to crash his fist, and the Undyne on it, into a wall.
If this fails, then Luffy tries to land on his two hands and then walk on them, standing up on them directly. Then, he elongate his legs drastically and start to spin around, like a tornado!
Gomu Gomu No Spin!

King of the Monsters
Link gestures to Epona.
Then he pulls out the Sheikah Slate and summons the Master Cycle Zero, making it clear Epona is for the King.
Chris gets overhead'd and stumbles back, clawing at the hat in his face.
Undyne catches the thrown spear and deflects the initial punch with her dual polearms. She smirks at his spinning attack and calls in "Tager!" who tries to catch Luffy's limbs and restrain him so she can follow up with a double spear stab.
Due to the level playing field, Tager is more than capable of halting Luffy's momentum - if he can get a grip.

The woman of the hour
Reprium
A strange looking girl with a knife and a green sweater was strolling around
And notably, was attacking and killing any animal that came in sight, which was odd.
Her knife glowed red and fired beams out of it, though she also just kind of stabbed here and there
it was a strange sight to see, to say the least
Your Jordans are fake, fake as hell. Dollar Store ass shoes
"Oh! Thank you, Link.", he says, climbing onto Epona.
"Very well. Let us be off."
"HAHA!"
Ximénez does some celebratory and cocky punches into empty air before running towards Chris and trying to headbutt him in his stomach as hard as he can.

Hmm she's a girl so-Hey, Zoro!
Zoro leap in with a sweeping Rengoku Onigiri, attempting to hit Undyne with it. If it works, she'll be slightly paralyzed before being thrown back! Regardless of success, he leaves.
As for Tager, he does successfully catch Luffy, who then bite into his thumb. After a few seconds, his forelegs inflate drastically, perhaps to the point where not even Tager will be able to hold unto them!

King of the Monsters
Chris rips the hat off just in time to get headbutted, but he retaliates by clasping his hands together and doing a brutal sledgehammer swing!
Undyne is repelled by Zoro's attack.
Tager just jumps away when Luffy starts to inflate. However, Undyne stabs the floor, and a row of spears spring up from below to try and hit him, hoping Luffy's increased mass will mean he gets hit by more spears and thus takes more damage.

Royal Road - Airspace
"Huh, I guess I'm not the only one with a dramatic transformation after all."
"Here they come." Rie says as her echo takes out the now fully recharged gunblade, and she wields each energy blade with one hand. Reuben stands up and holds out his lance, sending out a wave to stop the daggers in mid-air. His sister crosses all three of her blades together as Vergil comes down on them, intercepting him while her brother is busy. To match his power and prevent her echo arms from collapsing again, she expends a gunblade shot, but this time shockwave travels back down and out to the sides, creating a reinforcing shield.
Dagrún sees Hellboy going up to punch her again. With a roar, she breathes out a sustained psionic wave, both to match the power of his fist and keep him 'locked' momentarily like his ally.
"You wanna know why we're called Team Rocket, besides the alliteration?" With that prompt, Reuben shifts his focus to the dragon's body as she flies the group out of the daggers' way, going higher up. Waaaay up. Literally skyrocketing.
Reshaping the same holding effect, he and his sister keeps their footing on Dagrún, and he attempts to force the same to Vergil and Hellboy by proxy. If this is successful, Dagrún will then start to spin rapidly, building up angular momentum before the bugbear releases his hold on his opponents to yeet the shit out of them at rocket speed.

Ximénez gets hit by the brutal swing and falls on the ground.
"Ow... Fang!", he yells, tagging out with him again after he quickly swipes back his hat. At this point, all three of them are starting to look worn down. Clearly, none of them can take much more punishment.
Fang enters the stage and literally throws the (washing) rack at Chris.

Luffy does get slashed by the spears, but his legs suffer far from less thanks to their enhanced durability. He does "turn off" Gear 3 though, and get up, patting his back. He seems durable enough not to get turned into a kebab though he bleeds from the back.
Nonetheless, he smiles!
I guess that I can't hold back! Gear 2!
Luffy's skin glows slightly red and steam start to come off it as he pulls his arms backwards and shoot them forth with his fists clenched, deploying such tremendous speed that the air snaps as if he really did fire with some pistols!
Gomu Gomu No Twin Jet Pistol!
Then, he jumps above Undyne!
Gomu Gomu No Octopus Stamp! Luffy harden his legs with haki and lash out with them, elongating them as he deliver a very quick series of kick. The attack has good range and speed, and its damage will stack up quickly too!

Chris winces from having the (washing) rack thrown at him. He tags out to Yashiro, the most heavily wounded member of their team at the moment.
Undyne tags out to Silver Sonic, letting that poor fool take the full brunt of the Jet Pistols and Octopus Stamp.
Silver Sonic rises up afterwards, hissing and sparking. It curls into a ball, then unsheathes an array of blades from its surface before launching at Luffy to try and shred him up!

"Yes, one of them re-two, two of them... wait, no, I was actually right the first time. One of them retreated! Now knock that one out!", Ximénez yells. Fang smirks before charging towards Yashiro, trying to grab him and throw him up into the air, intending on letting him crash on the ground.
"... I suppose I can see why they stole our name now.", Meowth mutters.
"I still say we sue.", James says.
"Be quiet, I'm trying to watch!", Jessie says.

Woopsie! Luffy get slashed up but reduce the damage using his haki. Still, he back off to rest up, and it's Zoro who leap in, clashing blades with the spinning hedgehog of death!
Heh, cutting steel is what I'm good at! He says, backing off. He fires a Tatsumaki, or a powerful tornado that will not do much damage but may restrain Metal Sonic. If it works, Zoro leap to the sky!
UI TORA GARI! The aura of a tiger accompanies his descent as he slash downward, intending to strike with a powerful downward blow from both swords!

Yashiro is KO'd.
Shermie tags in with a flying kick for Fang's nards!
Silver Sonic's spin-dashing speed manages to be enough to escape the Tatsumaki, but Zoro's Ui Tora Gari strikes it down.
Not in that sense, though. It rockets to its feet, trying to just smash into Zoro and drag him into the air with it, before grabbing with a wire-attached claw to throw him into the floor and stomp on him!

"He's gearing up for war."
Ganondorf silently takes it, drinks it, and continues on his way.
Geez, no saying thanks? He really is evil!"I only hope we don't regret this..."
Yashiro gets shoved into the chair and battered by the Roman stampede. He remains lying there and vulnerable for a moment, wondering what just happened.
