"Off you are now." Leigh led Jericho in front of her back to the prison, placing him in a separate cage cell and keeping the staff with her once she got his gag off. "Try to keep quiet. You'll meet your friends soon enough anyway." She took the cuffs off and sealed him into his cell. "Now I have to wait on them to haul in the rest." She pointed at Salty Tom.
"Hmph! Good luck trying to capture us!" Zyon held up his hand, showing the incorrect number of people on the ship. "There are three of us and one of you!"
Zyon scoffed and took out his curved blade. He wasn't one for much close combat but he had to defend himself somehow. He wondered how he can get John out of the ship.
John, on the other hand, held out a large sword which he held easily with one hand. He didn't give Zyon much of a chance to get ready by kicking him onto the mast of the ship. Zyon, being more agile and nimble than John, rushed to him, attempting to slice him in the chest. John quickly blocked it but took some steps back, trying to get his balance.
"Damn Pirates, can you not fight one on one?" John growled. "Or are you all too weak?!"
"It shouldn't be a big deal for you with that big sword of yours!" Zora lunged forward with her knife at John once she saw the opening, but she was nowhere near as nimble as Zyon was.

"Wh-what even is going on out there...?" Marina murmured hoarsely.
"It doesn't matter to you anyway." Leigh retorted.
Bleck slowly lowered himself into the water, trying to make as little noise as possible as he began to swim away towards some place he could get from the water back onto the docks. Blackford meanwhile just stood on the ship, waiting, watching.
"C'mon now, Johnny-Boy!" Zyon seemed a bit scared since he never really fought John face to face. "Can't we just talk about this?!"
"No! Now stop resisting arrest!" John yelled. He noticed Zora lunge at him so he held his arm out , her knife digging into his arm. He gritted his teeth and used this moment to try and push Zora away. It was odd, he could have killed her but avoided any sort of killing. His arm bled but he ignored it and turned his attention to Zyon.
"Yeesh, why you gotta hurt the lil' lady?" Zyon growled.
"Because you pirates are always up to no good!" John said as he rushed at Zyon, tackling him to the ship's mast. Zyon coughed out blood and turned limp on John's shoulder. Without much hesitation, John put iron cuffs on him as fast as he could before any others would stop him.
