Patrol of South Capitol (Open)

(Thread PL 2,276)

Another day in the life of the traveling martial artist known as Rayne. Having started his adventure from Satan city, traveling all the over to the Bamboo Forest, and now coming to the South Capital made one thing painfully clear to the zoanthrope. Traveling the world on foot with a gym bag over your shoulder really, really sucked! Not a day went by that he didn't promise himself he was going to learn how to fly, or at least get his hands on some kind of personal transportation vehicle. It's true that martial artists needed to stay in shape, and walking was a good way to achieve that, but when you were less than three feet tall, a journey on foot seemed to stretch on forever! Presently, he was less concerned about honing his craft and more about finding a place to properly unwind after his journey across the world. Unfortunately, he was so focused on the chance to relax that he failed to realize Robocine's presence as he rounded the street corner and practically slammed into their shin!


"Oof!" Rayne grunted as he toppled over on his back, almost dropping his bag in doing so as he regained his senses and looked up to see who he had bumped into. He didn't recognize the person, not surprising considering he had only just arrived, but something immediately felt off about them. Maybe it was the way their body language stated they had expected a threat, or maybe it was the fact that bumping into them had been like smacking into a street lamp! Either way, this person was much tougher than the average citizen, and he decided to see just how much. Or, at least, that had been the plan, because as he wasn't able to pick up any trace of ki from them when he tried to sense their power! "That's... not normal." he muttered to himself as he rubbed his snout and climbed back to his feet. He didn't know what this guy was, which meant if he wanted to throw down in the streets, he'd have the element of surprise over Rayne. And the little Zoanthrope was well aware of that fact, so he decided that it was not a great idea to provoke him at this time.


"Sorry about that." Rayne apologized, dusting himself off and smoothing the wrinkles out of his favorite blue and white gi, "I was distracted there." he added.

An android... well that explained why there was no ki signature coming off them. But at least he wasn't a genocidal terminator, or least Rayne hoped not. There were many different ways an autonomous machine could interpret keeping the streets safe. The young Zoan still felt like it would have been better to rest up for a bit, but when he was challenged to a sparring match, his curiosity got the better of him. Rayne had never actually fought one of these artificial warriors before, but he had heard they were supposed to be significantly stronger than organic fighters. It would be a good chance to find out where he stood as a martial artist after traveling so far.


"Hmmph, sure, I'll spar with you for a while." the otter grinned as he assumed his own fighting stance, "But just a heads up, I'm mostly self disciplined. So my technique may be a little... unorthodox." It was true, Rayne had no foundation on which his martial arts was built upon. He mostly just relied on instinct to do what felt right to him at the time. It was a useful trick for keeping novice fighters off guard, but he didn't know how a mechanical fighter would react to his improvised style. Who knows, maybe all that logic and calculation would have even more trouble than an organic brain?

KP 3/3


Also ready to fight, and also don't want to initiate a DE for similar reason of not wanting to die this early.

Thread PL: 2,276

Aaaaand the droid could fly... of course he could fly! And to add further insult, he wouldn't have even needed to fly very high to stay out of reach of Rayne's punches and kicks. But thankfully, Rayne wasn't totally helpless; this was exactly the reason he had started to practice using ki in the first place. So that he wouldn't have to worry about crap like reach advantage, or superior muscle! Taking a sideways stance, he clenched the fingers of one paw as he began to charge his energy into it. Judging by what Robocine had blatantly announced, it seemed like he was going to need it very soon!


"We'll see about that!" he retorted. His own attack didn't have a flashy name, but he hoped it would get the job done as he proceeded to charge it. His paw tingled with the sensation of energy collecting at his fingertips. Unfortunately, without being able to sense how powerful his opponent was, he didn't know how much energy he was going to need. He decided to play it safe and charge it up a bit more before firing.

KP 3/3

Charging Ki Beam [N1]. Current charge 33%. Will fire next round for 66% PL.

Thread PL 2,276

Yet another weakness that the young otter would need to work on in the future was a way in which to dodge techniques like the one Robocine  had just started to unleash. Rayne was no expert, but blue fire building around somebody's mouth was probably not a good sign. Frowning, he resorted to the only counter measure he could think of to stop himself from being irradiated by the flames. Twisting his upper body in a half turn stance, he thrust his arm forward and released a shouting battle cry as he fired the ki he had been saving up, aiming the beam directly in the path of the oncoming attack.


"Giving nuclear armaments to a street patrol unit?" he exclaimed, "That doesn't sound like somebody who has the public's best interest in mind!" his words were more than an attempt at mockery, they were also intended to be a distraction as Rayne was already preparing for his next move. With his first arm stretched forward to counter the blast, his other arm was now poised behind his back and preparing itself for a second charge once he got the opportunity. He just hoped that this next one would actually be able to make a direct hit, because he didn't exactly have an infinite supply of these things!

Old KP 3/3. New KP 2/3

Firing Ki Beam [N1] for 66% PL, which equals 1,502 attack power. Attempting to cancel out Nuclear Fire.

As the dust settled from the explosion and Robocine and Rayne were still standing, the android noticed that a goat zoanthrope carrying a sword was walking onto the battlefield. As Robocine examined him, he saw that Chai was wearing very heavy bracers, which seemed to signify that the zoanthrope was a very strong fighter. After hearing what the zoanthrope had to say, Robocine decided to try to calmly talk to the goat before things could get very bad.

"Relax, I am making sure that no civilians get hurt while us two are sparring." Robocine said while lowering his stance completely. "My name is Model D26: Robocine, of the BBA World Police Department. What is yours?"

{{ Thread PL: 144,769. Medium Weights on 72,384 Available, Ki Setting to 15,000 }}

A day out inside of the Southern Capitol was a welcome change of pace to the mundanity and boredom that came from the solitary training back on her home island a few hour light flight from the capitol. So Ninjin was strolling along within the city itself as she was enjoying the rather calm and laid back attitude of the city when a few people seemed a little agitated as she rounded a corner. The few people were well off in the distance just inside of the city limits as she could sense. Their signatures were not anywhere near the level that she had set herself at before the day had begun. Turning her head to glance at her sleeping daughter on her back she shook her head and chuckled to herself. :: If you were not around I would be heading in that way lil Amalia… ::

Her thoughts were cut short as a combination of ki blasts roared out from the area and a loud boom echoed down the concrete jungle of the city. With a deep inhaled breath she began to walk toward the epicenter of the blast. It seemed however that she was not really needed as she made her way there. A zoanthrope had made his presence known by the time she made her way into the area that the other two had been within. Glancing around she made no qualms about hiding her set strength as she just stood there within her Master Turtle Gi. Shifting her weight a little as she looked toward the others that had gathered. “You know it is not everyday that I come to the city. Even rarer that when I do I sense and feel a rather nice explosion not caused by a ki blast.”

Her demeanor and stance would be fully neutral and without any sort of aggression. In fact one would consider her stance to be that of a relaxed civilian who had just stumbled upon the gathering but despite that it would feel as if she was watching each of the others with a trained eye.

{{ Amalia is a NPC but for sakes of the thread she has 25 PL. KP is at 3/3 and Ninjin is just standing there without any weapons on herself just her weights and child strapped to her body. Also hope you guys do not mind the intrusion. I want to spread out and meet a few new people. Promise I wont fight anyone.}}

Robocine was amazed from seeing Chai split his own sword into two seprate swords with ease, which was something he considered was impossible to do to just a weapon. After hearing about the offer to spar with the goat zoanthrope Chai, Robocine was ready to spar with him to try to practice his aiming techniques, as well as to see Chai's full power. Before he could decide however, the android saw that Rayne was starting to leave to recover.

Since the otter was able to deflect Robocine's fully powered Nuclear Fire attack, and that he assumed that Chai was probably much stronger, Robocine decided to wait until he was strong enough to give an even fight against the two to fight them. "I would like to continue fighting as well Chai, but I have to withdraw for now as well." Robocine said. "Maybe if I see you tommorow, we could try sparring?"

After finishing what he had to say, Robocine started flying upward using his Ki Engine for propulsion, right before starting to fly to the BBA base for the next few. As he started flying away from South Capitol, Robocine started to think about if there were even stronger people outside of the BBA than Chai.
