[3rd POV]
(The Jade Palace)
"Are you sure this is a good idea?"
"A hundred and one per cent sure Viper."
It was not a good idea to try and slingshot yourself with two trees in hopes of reaching the same speed as Mighty Eagle. Not only was it impossible to do such things, it was dangerous.
"Okay then, I hope you succeed." Viper said like a supportive wife to Po.
"Crane, be ready to catch him." Tigress said as she watched from the side. She was worried for Po but she was far too amused and interested to actually stop what was going on.
"You can do it!!" Monkey said.
"You think so?" Manits who was on his shoulder whispered.
"No." Moneky whispered back but then returned to cheering, "You can do it, Dragon Warrior!!"
"Oooh yeah guys, be ready to witness the peak of awesomeness never before seen since Tai Lung on the battle of Shigatse." Po said while he walked backwards.
He tied a rubber rope on two trees and he was using it as a slingshot to try and shoot himself at a speed that should be as fast as the Mighty Eagle. He was basically playing angry birds with himself.
It was one of his unorthodox ideas. He had been getting lots of them these days.
The furious five watched him from the side, amused but also curious if it was going to be a success. They were not too worried as Po was extremely durable and also knew how to heal himself.
"Then we do this." Po said while channelling his chi onto the rubber rope so that it may achieve the impossible.
"Three...two...one.."
"Po!!"
"Master Shifu!" Po panicked when he heard Shifu's voice coming behind him and immediately jumped out of the slingshot nest. The rubber violently pulled forward but Po was no longer there.
"What do you think you are doing?"
"Uhhhh...I was, making a hammock for Monkey!!" Po lied.
Shifu's face was absolutely blank and then he looked at Monkey who immediately covered for his friend's excuse, "Yeah, thanks Po."
They gave big fake smiles.
Shifu sighed, "We have no time for this Po, a letter had come from the Shen, asking for aid."
"Aid? But I thought we already defeated the rebel army?" Po asked and the furious five also gathered around him.
"Yes, that's the thing. Shen thought they had already defeated the rebels until a week ago, they suddenly retaliated and somehow were able to be powerful enough to take back the kingdom of Jingnan."
"A hundred thousand soldiers died. "
"What?!" x5
"That many?" Tigress asked.
That was the only correct reaction in this situation.
I looked at the giant who was slowly walking towards me. No, calling him a giant was an understatement.
He was titanic.
I never knew there were beings in this world that were this big. His head touched the sky. Or was it even a head? It was weird because he was a fucking walking whale.
What an absolute marvel of creation.
"You can kill that thing right?" Mei asked from my side while she too looked ahead in astonishment.
I turned to look at her and saw that she was afraid, or maybe slightly unnerved.
"If you're scared, it helps if you imagine him as a giant fish." I said.
"...."
"...."
"It does make me feel better." she said with a smile.
We watched the whale slowly approach us from a distance. He was at least a few kilometres away but since he was so tall - standing roughly 120 feet or so - he was clearly visible.
In fact, I felt the ground vibrate even though he was still that far away.
"He is not a fish though." said a voice in the air. Mei immediately became alerted and tighten the grip she had on her bell. She was ready to jingle it and command the world to completely hide her presence.
But that would not be needed as I had sensed the enemy since the beginning. I was even standing in a way to always protect her since the start.
"But you are one, isn't that right?" I said with a smile and moved my head. I turned towards the place he was hiding at.
I looked him straight in the eye.
"You know, I like the taste of fish."
"Not this one I assure you." rows of white teeth smiled at me. It was white and jagged, it gave off a monstrous sight. One would cower even just looking at it.
He finally came out from the rocky hill and bushes he was hiding behind. My nose was extremely acute to smelling - especially fish - so it was easy to locate him.
A blue monster with a physique unlike anything I had ever seen before walked out. He had muscles which i could not even name and limbs I was not sure how they worked.
His gills opened up and released a gruff nose, like the ones you would hear from a horse.
It was a shark.
"I am Shakui, from the Celestial waters of India."
"I came to you, strongest of the world, with a warning."
His smile was ever so sharp.
