Knuckles jumps back, though knows that there's not really any room to hide from Sapphire of the Emperor.
"Agh...", he growls, nervous.
Silver then looks at Shadow for a moment, needing but a moment to realize what has to be done, and nods confidently.
He turns back to Cyber Safi'jiiva and then pulls out all the stops, using as much of his psychic powers as he can muster to try to grab Sapphire of the Emperor in his now-much-larger psychic field.
If successful, he'll then throw it right back at the cyberdragon.

In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."What you need is to stop this insanity before you get yourself killed," Wanda retorts, attempting to knock the blade out of the hooded figure's grasp with a swing of her sword. "Now I'm only going to say this one last time: stand the hell down."
She telekinetically levitates a sizable chunk of rock from the ground behind the figure before launching it straight at them.
"Orgus Din... you mean, you were the protege of the same Master Din who fought in the Battle of Karideph?" Ben asks. "Judging by how you didn't seek revenge on those Flesh Raiders after they disfigured you, I'd say he chose wisely."

Turns out the being wasn't truly staggered and was attempting to lure Luffy and Wanda in, because they jump over his punches and Wanda's attempt to knock their sword out of their hands. They then attempt to nail Luffy with a powerful kick to the head in the process to send him flying instead.
Regardless of the result, Wanda's rock ends up hitting them and knocks them back down, though they land on their feet and suddenly rush for Wanda, swinging their blade with impressive (but not infallible) accuracy.

"So, you guys actually use this as a base. I would've hoped to take it for myself, but oh well. Seems like there are a disproportionate number of caves and ruins in this region anyway. I'm sure one of them is suitable for my purposes." Aleifr says with a chuckle as he accepts the drink and takes a sip. "Mm, not bad."

"You'd probably have a better chance of success if you plan ahead instead of immediately announcing your intentions."
Luffy is hit, but thanks to his rubbery nature, he's less affected than if he had been struck with the sword. As a result, he bounce back from the attack quickly, throwing his arm back and charging at the figure, using his powerful Observation Haki in a bid to predict their next move.
GOMU GOMU NO!
In a burst of speed, he appears near them and toss his arm forward, causing a powerful one-handed snap-punch that could send them hurling!
BULLET!
Regardless of the attack's success, he tries to grab his enemy. If that work, he stretch close to them and tries to hit them with a clothesline, wrapping his arm in haki and stretching it in the process!
GOMU GOMU NO KAMA!
...
Kaido stares at the missiles and roar, with such strength that they're blown away entirely, holy-
Luckily, he stands still and flex, as if allowing Ray another shot.

Cyber Safi'jiiva
In a gargantuan explosion, Safi'jiiva falls from the sky, lands on its side, cranes its neck up to the sky...
and finally goes still. Its chestplates break apart and the Chaos Emeralds, dim from overuse of their power, fall out.
Schezo immediately grabs the blue Emerald, smirking to himself.
"So, we're gonna divvy 'em up, huh?" Sonic grabs the teal Emerald.
"Yes." Shadow takes the green Emerald. However, he seems to be vacantly staring not at his reclaimed gem, but at the fallen Cyber Safi'jiiva.
Mega Man takes the purple Emerald. He looks at the monster's corpse with concern.
"I mean, if you're willing to officially join, you can stick around, but Snake doesn't take kindly to people with a lot of ambition."
Jolyne takes a swig of her own drink. "Best idea I've ever had."

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""Fine..."
Wanda raises her longsword just in time to parry the figure's blade, engaging them in an intense Blade Lock. During the struggle, she attempts to grab her opponent's hood and pull it back.
`Kiri K Um, sure? "Whoa-ho!", Pecorine murmurs as she lands heavily on the ground with both feet. Oh, just the scents of the kitchen simmering away was already bringing her back to life~! With wide, energetic steps, the princess bounded her way into the restaurant with a merry "Heyas, Mr. Manager! I'll have, uhhh..." She gave the menu a brief scan. Oh, everything just looked and sounded so delectable and mouth-watering. Oh, what the hey! Karyl's not even here to lecture her. "Everything on the menu! Once!" Ohh, she just can't wait~

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Silver takes the gray emerald and Knuckles takes the red emerald. Just like everyone else though, their main focus is on Safi'jiiva's corpse. Knuckles closes his eyes and lowers his head a little, while Silver looks more visibly distressed.
"This poor creature...", he mutters, floating over to it as he looks sympathetic.
The blades parry, but Luffy's punch sends the hooded being flying into the nearest building. They were sent flying a bit too fast for Luffy to be able to grab them again though.
The being doesn't immediately emerge again. Are they defeated, or is this a scheme?
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay....
He turns around and put his hands behind his head, walking back. Yo! We won! Good work, witchy witch! Happily comments Luffy, as he seemingly carelessly switch his focus to the food he has yet to plunge into the abyss.
...
Kaido sounds almost happy as the bullets hit him, some piercing his skin and drawing blood. However, when that happens, something glint in his eyes and he immediately charge forward, with a demolishing strike of his mace, blinking a few meters behind RAY's back thanks to his sheer speed.

"It's definitely up there, I say." Aleifr takes a bigger sip, letting the taste and light burn steep in his mouth for a moment.
"What would I be joining, exactly? That's been on my mind-" ever since the mission. "-for the last few... minutes. From how you're describing him, Snake sounds like he has a very specific goal in mind."

'Aleifr' takes a quick psychic scan of the immediate vicinity.
Dawnguard Lake
The waters of the lake looking placid. But then, a yellow submarine emerges from the deep of the lake.
From the submarine appeared a strange blue man.
Land ahoy!
When the submarine landed, a thousand of these strange creatures got out of there, and formed lines as if were an army.
Alright then! We, The Blue Meanies, will invade this world, and destroy every positive emotion of their people! March, now!

Three freaking ghosts!Zeloai turned to Raeii, listening closely to his tale. The Jedi Master sighed,
"Yes, the flesh raider attack. The apprentices were sorely unprepared, and most certainly should not have been deployed. Although I must say it is impressive that you chose the light so early on in your training, many others would have fallen in that moment."
Izawano stood silent, the Jedi knight entering the bannered mare in swift silence.
"I believe you will be a great ally in our fight Raeii, I'm glad we could manage to find you."
The Jedi Master turned to the inn behind them, motioning for the rest outside to follow him back in.

'Aleifr' will find that someone is seemingly dashing around the area behind the buildings. ... no, not dashing per se... it's a bit different from that.
Suddenly, a blade is thrown Luffy's way, coming in from behind and attempting to impale him. Regardless of how effective the attack is, the moment Luffy's and Wanda's attention is drawn to it, the being suddenly emerges from near Wanda and attempts to punch her with enough force to potentially send her hurtling towards Luffy.
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.Raeii continues the story as they walk.
"At Master Orgus' behest, I raided a weapons cache held by the Flesh Raiders. There I met an astromech droid, T7-O1. When I removed its restraining bolt, it showed me a holorecording of an interaction between Sith, and I ended up keeping it as my partner."
"After defeating Bengel Morr and forging my own lightsaber, becoming a fully-fledged Knight, I was sent to Coruscant, where I stopped an Imperial attack on the transport ship I was in, trying to capture a priority target. According to Jobak, at around the same time, he was assaulting a Republic ship on his way to Dromund Kaas for similar reasons - though a different target."
"On Coruscant, I aided Master Orgus, General Var Suthra, and Doctor Eli Tarnis, who were working on a superweapon called the Planet Prison until its plans were stolen by the Black Sun crime syndicate."
"Planet... prison..." muses Warrick. "That don't sound good."
- It wasn't.
- It had potential.
"I was surprised the Jedi were even willing to condone its creation. It releases a charge that turns a planet's atmosphere into a giant ion cannon, disabling all ships that go in or attempt to get out. Doctor Tarnis called it 'the most humane military technology ever invented', but I would say that spot belongs to messages of surrender."
"Breakout Force," Jolyne explains. "Ragtag band of people who, for one reason or another, are all out to kick Narktus' ass. Snake enforces loyalty and camaraderie, and he sees people who would try to put themselves above others as a liability to that."

RAY stumbles back from the blow. It unveils an energy blade from one of its fins and turns around to take a big swipe at Kaido with it.
Lake Near Fort Dawnguard
Glali Nik
◊ was on her way to pay the Shepherds a visit when she notices the Blue Meanies.
"Well then. Never thought I'd get to punch the source of my nightmares in the face." She approaches menacingly, cracking her knuckles.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."Takumi is watching the emergence of the Blue Meanies from afar.
... Urgh, not again. He says, before pointing at Noire. Go warn the others, a bunch of blue-skinned people have emerged from a nearby lake!
Noire stares wordlessly at him but then decide to go ahead and warn them.
Meanwhile, a single lonely figure stand in the nearby vegetation, observing the Meanies.
...
With surprising speed, Luffy dodge the attack, having used his Observation Haki to guess that something was coming and react accordingly. As a result, he lash out with surprising quickness at the being with one extended arm!
GOMU GOMU NO PISTOL!
He does keep the other arm in waiting for Wanda if she's thrown about, since he didn't see what would happen to her, but know that she was about to be punched. He just doesn't know how she will react to it.
Either way, if she's struck, he catches her fairly easily!
Got ya, witchy witch!
...
Kaido put his mace behind his back to intercept the strike, and turn around, attempting to deliver a vicious haymaker!

Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterThe Shepherds hide behind their battlegrounds, while the unknown figure deftly dodge and remain hidden.
They may be willing to chase away, but a generous amount of arrows from Takumi and Noir, as well as some lightning spells (Thoron) from Emmeryn, aim to strike from afar. Meanwhile, Dozla, Beruka, Oboro, Corrin and Garon get ready to serve as the strike force!
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterHaving been distracted by the blade headed for Luffy, Wanda ends up being punched towards the superpowered pirate, though he thankfully manages to catch her in time.
"Argh... it's Wanda, by the way. Thanks for the save."
Turning her attention back to the hooded being, she begins advancing towards them, her eyes now glowing red as she attempts to telekinetically grab and hurl them into the closest tree.
Ben follows Raeii and the others into the Bannered Mare.
"That sounds like a weapon capable of wreaking untold amounts of havoc in the wrong hands, especially if those hands belonged to criminals like Black Sun or the Hutts. Please tell me you managed to retrieve the plans."

"I was still working on the consequences of that situation when I wound up here."
"So, turns out Doctor Tarnis was a Sith Lord, and the son of Darth Angral, and he staged the weapon plans being stolen and himself being kidnapped as an elaborate ruse to set himself up to unleash the Planet Prison on Coruscant. I killed him and destroyed it, but Darth Angral declared war on the Republic. My next objective was to go between various planets and stop Angral's apprentices from unleashing stolen Republic superweapons, and for that I received a personal shuttle as well as oversight of the Padawan Kira Carsen."
"On Nar Shaddaa, where the Power Guard Enhancement System project to make cyborg supersoldiers was being appropriated by Lord Sadic, was where I first ran into Jobak. Apparently, his mission led to him learning about these superweapons from the target he captured, and he was looking to find them for himself."
The Past
Raeii knocked the Sith Inquisitor back with a Force Sweep, delivering a sweeping slam, but the Dark Lord responded by shocking him with a quick 'poke' of Force lightning, immediately followed by a much stronger blast. The Sith was as the iceberg that felled the Titanic, unbroken and barely moved by his foe's best efforts, while retaliating with sheer devastation.
Raeii was driven to one knee, and the Sith pointed his lightsaber down at his head.

Jobak's Perspective
- Pathetic.
- Needs work.
- [Kill him]
"Your dual-saber fighting style was interesting, but ultimately far too unrefined to compete with me."
"If I got the chance to train more..."
Jobak raised an eyebrow with amusement. This Jedi was still acting like he was going to be alive by the end of the day.
"What was your name and rank?"
"Raeii... Raeii Berjol, Jedi Knight."
"... I beg your pardon?"
RAY jumps back to avoid Kaido again, and strikes back with a spinning tail sweep.
Nik punches the air, and a shockwave bursts forth that smashes the apples. Then she launches herself at the Blue Meanies, aiming to scatter them with a flying kick!

Wooryah!
Luffy recovers and attempts to nail the hooded being with a GOMU GOMU JET GATLING!!!, essentially a short-ranged (in this case) series of elastic punches. Regardless of his success in pulling it off, he throws his hands back, stretching them a good distance away, and snap them forward, coating them in haki as he tries to crash them into the person's chest.
GOMU GOMU NO BAZOOKA!
This could totally blast them into an house hard enough to make it collapse!
