With a very predictable move to dodge, Bakuto wasn't surprised, but now the Diglett was moving around under the sand. This was troubling, he couldn't exactly hit the little Diglett when it was underground. At least Absol couldn't. Bakuto quickly thought of something. "Absol, we need to turn up the heat a bit on that Diglet. Use Flamethrower on the ground follow the movements of the sand so we can heat up that sand and keep it up until that Diglet comes out of hiding."

A bit of an abnormal move for an Absol, but a move it can perfectly learn. Absol unleashes a torrent amount of flames from its mouth. Hitting the sand with a fiery attack. Not an effective move against ground types Bakuto's plan was to try and heat up the sand enough to force the Diglett to surface. Bakuto wasn't sure how long Absol could keep up this attack either, as Absol wasn't an actual fire type pokemon. The only other thing he could have done was wait for the pokemon to reemerge, and judging based on its speed it could emerge and go back into digging in a flash. The only thing Bakuto could think of stopping the Diglett was make the environment harder to dig or at least a lot more uncomfortable maybe do a little bit of damage with the environment change.

The psycho cut worked, and Bakuto was relived when the gym leader returned. Then he listened to Henri, as he explains he was going to use Marowak but he wanted to see how Bakuto would work against a different pokemon and called out a Diglett. At first Bakuto looked at its size and started to assume this was a piece of cake to beat, but the more he thinks about it, it was a very small pokemon sticking out of the sand.

Bakuto then calls out, "Absol use Shadow ball, put the ball between you and those mud slap balls, then hit that Diglett with full powered Shadow Ball!" Absol began creating another shadow ball, the mud balls hit the ball as it grows. The mud slap makes Absol get pushed back slightly but the shadow ball continues to grow in size. Absol creates the shadow ball as big as it can and then launches it right at Diglett in the sand. Bakuto looking to hit the very small pokemon with a big powerful attack. Wanting to end this gym battle before the Pokémon can start moving around much in the sand. If the pokemon sticking out of the sand had any sign of what it could do, or what in its name says it can do. Bakuto wanted to stop it before it started to dig around the arena.

The attack hit and Bakuto fought urge to smile after the attack. One move hitting wasn't something to celebrate just yet this Rhydon is still up. The Rhydon seemed more tired from that attack and that was something for Bakuto to make a mental note of. Henri ordered another attack this time a Horn Attack. Looking to use Rhydon's powerful horn to hit with a horn attack.

This was a moment Bakuto was waiting for he then yells, "Smack that horn attack away and nail that Rhydon with a psycho cut." The horn like flap on the top of Absol's head shined for a second as it charges Rhydon looking to nail horn attack with a powerful psycho cut. Looking to hit and out power the tired Rhydon with high hitting move. Not thinking of a better opportunity then with the Rhydon charging head first towards Absol to hit this move right on top of its head. Also using Rhydon's forward momentum going into the attack to amplify how hard the attack hits adding to the already high hitting move of Psycho Cut.

At first, he was happy the attack hit for a second time, but that quickly turned from happiness into despair quickly. The gym leader told his pokemon to use Smack Down. A rock move that could prove very bad for Ninjask. Not only because his pokemon is a bug type, but because the move would remove his pokemon's advantage against ground type moves as well. Instinctively Bakuto yells to Ninjask, "Avoid it Ninjask!"

Ninjask tries to avoid the move with its speed. It looked like it would, but gets clipped by the move. Ninjask is smacked into the ground. Even a glancing blow was super effective against Ninjask. The pokemon fights to get back up, fighting not to faint just from the move that hit it. Ninjask regains somewhat of a balance but it was hurt. It says its name wanting to keep fighting, Bakuto calls with the pokeball that he pulled out, "Ninjask Return!" The red light envelops the flying bug pokemon, and it returns to its pokeball. Bakuto smiles, "Knew this wouldn't be easy. Absol, you are up buddy. Time for the main event."

The white and red pokemon perks up and springs onto the field to face the Rhydon. Absol looking ready to go staring down the big rock pokemon. Ths time Bakuto didn't have a type advantage or disadvantage, so now the battle would be whose pokemon was better. Bakuto wastes no time to get things started, "Absol, lets start things off quickly, hit that Rhydon with a Shadow ball!" Starting things off with a ghost move, The Red Absol quickly creates a dark ball of shadows then fires it right at Rhydon almost as quickly as Bakuto called out the attack. Looking to hit and batter the Rhyhorn with a ghost attack.

Going back to the ship, after paying for the damages, and buying a few barrels of alcohol he carried all the barrels and the prisoner back to the White Pear all at the same time. Not really surprised the wolf stayed out cold during the trip. He did hit him rather hard to knock him out.

First thing Bakuto does was tie their new prisoner up to the main mast. Using a bit of rope to tie his hands up above his head and to keep him bound heavily with as much knots he could tie up. Not leaving up anything to chance with this zoan type user. Bakuto wanted to throw him into sea so the crew didn't have to deal more with Arafael then they had to. Bakuto needed something to do, he couldn't really go shopping for stuff on the island. He just used his money to pay for the damages he caused in the bar.

Quickly putting the barrels away into storage. That he just bought for the crew. Part of him couldn't wait to crack into the barrels but that had to wait until later, since this is the start of a back up reserve Bakuto got. Once back on the main deck of the ship Looking around the ship Bakuto figured he could do some exercising until it was time to leave. Grabbing a bit more rope and a box of cannonballs. Bakuto was going to do a bit of exercising to use up his time up before his crew had to set sail.

"Two thousand ninety eight....two thousand and ninety nine....three thousand." Bakuto once again hanging upside down from the main mast near the prisoner so he can keep an eye on him. Bakuto was upside down with fifty cannonballs inside a box tied to him doing pull ups. Barely aware of how much time has passed. He had focused on pushing his body to its limits during his exercises trying to strengthen himself.

He stops when he heard 'So how goes Scruffy, or Arafael, so as he calls?'. Bakuto looks around while upside down and sees the captain boarding the ship. Bakuto looks at the tied up prisoner and answers plainly while completely disregarding that he was upside down, "Not sure, I know I hit him pretty hard. I'm pretty sure he didn't croak on us. He was breathing still when I tied him up"Bakuto relaxes a bit when tied up upside down from the cross beam of the mast as if that was a normal every day thing.

The box of cannonballs that was tied to his waist barely misses the ground. Bakuto used it to weigh himself down during his latest exercise. Bakuto looks down at the box, he was actually thinking he needed more weight as he looked at the box. He was waiting for the captain's orders before doing anything just yet.

Ninjask speeds up through its attacks getting faster due to its speed boost ability. Bakuto hears the gym leader tell his pokemon to use Scary face. He smiles, "A move to lower speed good choice but you need to do more to lower Ninjask's speed. Alright Ninjask, let do it again! Aerial Ace then follow with another metal Claw" The Scary face put Ninjask back to its original speed but Ninjask began to speed up again to get into the Aerial Ace maneuver moving in quickly looking to hit the Rhydon with the same combo again.

Bakuto using Ninjask's natural speed boosting to counter the speed lowering move Henri went to use. While also looking to hit the same move combo. Keeping Ninjask moving seemed to Bakuto the best plan of attack against the powerful Rhydon. Still trying to make up for the type disadvantage in his own way.

Bakuto's attacks were now fended off by the wolf zoan type user. Clashing with his finger pistol technique as he attempts to fight this wolf man. All the fight came to a half when the captain put the wolf under a table. Weighed down by the Captain's weight devil fruit powers. Bakuto lands on the ground and hits the finger pistol into the floor next to the wolf. Bakuto snarls, "Give me a reason and next time I wont miss. Playing us like fools you are lucky the captain is nicer then I."

Bakuto hears the captain and backs off long enough to tie the wolf up in his weighed clothing Bakuto, "You might try and provoke me, but remember this. You aren't the only one with zoan powers. Maybe one day we will see what a wolf is like when it faces an angry dragon. Anyway, good news to you. There is a new position on the ship I would think, the ship prisoner. Now when you wake up you can take up your new job" Before any question could be asked of what Bakuto mean. He pulls back and hits the wolf man in the head with almost all his strength. Holding back enough so he wouldn't kill the poor wolf man but enough to hopefully knock out the wolf then he says aloud almost jokingly, "Or he can be fishing bait, if we ever want some fresh sea-king."

Without looking at the captain Bakuto says, "Give my half of the treasure cut to the bar owner. That should pay for the hole I made in the wall and maybe get us a supply of rum for the ship with how of much is left after the wall is paid for. I'll carry this guy back to the ship. Maybe put him in the brig or tie him to the mast or where ever I can put him on the ship." Bakuto then calls back, "Hey little big lady. We are going back to the ship. If you want to find out which ship is ours, follow me. Looks like we need to get going soon" Bakuto goes and tries to pick up the weighed table to get to the wolf man he tied up he was going to carry him to the White Pearl.

Hitting the Sandslash was right with the plan, he hadn't expect it to get knocked across the arena and into a pillar though. When Henri returned his pokemon to much of Bakuto's dismay he called out a rock ground type pokemon in Rhydon. The first move he called for was a rock throw. Bakuto calls out, "Dodge it!" But Shedinja was still recovering from its hyper beam attack could not move. It got hit hard by the Rock throw. And slams against a wall, causing Bakuto to wince slightly. He pulls out it's pokeball knowing the result of the attack Shednija had fainted from the attack.

Bakuto calls out, "Return" Returning the pokemon back to ites pokeball through a red light created by the pokeball. Absol's head perked up looking to get into the battle next. Bakuto shakes his head and says, "Nah not yet, you are going last buddy. That is a tough pokemon we have to use our best for last buddy." Bakuto pulls out another pokeball, "Now go Ninjask" The other of his bug pokemon duo. This one being the flying bug type Ninjask.

Not wasting time waiting for the gym leader to act first Bakuto calls out, "Alright Ninjask, fly around quickly move in quick with an Aerial Ace then follow up with a metal claw!" Relying on his pokemon's speed to face against the type advantage the gym leader has. Looking to get in quickly with a quick flying move, then try to hit with type move that might be able to hurt the Rhydon.

Bakuto waits to make an attack, watching sandslash move. Even when it started to fury cutter to slash through the double team images he still waited. Eventually Sandslash hits through and nails Shednija with a fury cutter but wait nothing happened to Shednija as if the move had no effect. Bakuto smiles then yell, "Now at point-blank range Hyper beam!"

At the instant of the command Shednija unleashes a huge hyper beams right at Sandslash, who happened had to get close with the fury cutter move. A powerful beam like move Bakuto had waited until Sandslash was right there able to take the full attack with very little room of attack. Knowing the toll hyper beam puts on his own pokemon it would leave it open for attack if Shedinja launched the attack and missed. Instead Bakuto waited for Sandlash to get close and relying on Shedinja's wonder guard ability to get the hyper beam attack as close as possible.

Getting ready, seeing the first pokemon is a Sandslash. Bakuto fights the urge to pull out his pokedex for this pokemon and continue the battle. The first attack being a Sand attack in the sandy arena, Bakuto wasn't really surprised but Bakuto yells out to Shedinja, "Brace yourself." A move meant to affect accuracy Bakuto, it's a move that can get through Shedinja's wonder guard. Being that it is more of a status affecting move rather then an attack

Shedinja gets attacks, it shakes a bit, maybe having trouble seeing from the attack. Bakuto calls out very quickly, "That's right shake it off, quickly double team, don't make it easy for it to attack you!" Shednija starting to make double team illusion like clones quickly. Each looking like the original making. Not attacking quite yet but trying to make it harder for the sand flinging pokemon harder to try and hit it with more sand or any other attacks.
