Taking refuge on a nearby deserted island, the feared cannibal tribe. Marked by their unique bear paw, the tribe of savages had come to settle on Swallow island, once inhabited by native Bird People the Kumates had easily beaten them into submission. Using their ruthless gorilla tactics in order to dwindle their numbers. As of now it is unknown what the savages want, but you can ominously hear them chanting. "Chakula~chakula~chakula!" as they dance around a large firepit.

Sitting upon a throne of defeated Bird warriors, Kurr smirked toward his chanting nakama. "Kutosha!!!" He would shout silencing them. "You'll eat soon enough you dogs." he would growl commanding his men back to work. The massive brute of a man would then trek off into the marshland of Swallow island, he alone knew the true reason of why they came to this island.

The day was calm on the tropical Swallow Island. Warmth from the afternoon had ebbed and now was accompanied by a slight, cool breeze. Docking his personal ship in some overgrown brush helped hide his presence (for what it’s worth) while on land. This small spot in south blue had been considered territory of the Kumatei tribe. The whole tribe had racked up a rather large bounty, and the crimes they’d committed translated the fact quite well. Slave trading, pillaging, plundering, cannibalism, the list went on but Jazpar had stopped reading the reading the report once “slaves” came up.
Getting comfortable he’d scan the area, situational awareness becomes second nature after fighting in the field. Jaz would hide in the brush, eyes shifting to and fro as his ears would pick out a slight disturbance.

Sensing a disturbance in his territory the Porcupine Kurr's sharp eyes would dart around the setting. Trying to find somewhere to place all of his malice and frustration his dark orbs would zone in on an out of place marine... where ever he might have been hiding. "What is combat? It it a steady stream of actions, or rather a dance of action vs. reaction?" Beckoning his men forward, the Toge Toge eater would shout out at his men. "ATTACK!"
Just like in chess, in combat no reaction was still a reaction. With his spear sturdy in his hand, the kumate savage would charge forward blitzing the young marine with a sudden burst of 50 speed.
His spear fastened tightly in his grip he would attempt to drive it deep into the uniform clad marine's chest, rather then do some fancy tactic this savage was smarter then he looked, attempting to drive the spear through the man's chest would allow him to suddenly control the battle, from his experiences in the jungle it was best to be the first to attack, always!
"Keeeeeeeeeyahhhhh~!!!"

A sudden chill crept up. The thudding of footsteps could be heard accompanied with a battle cry. He knew their compound wasn’t too far from his position, yet he could tell they were coming from much farther away. Maybe another conquest, an afternoon pillaging if you would. It certainly sounded like their MO, but now wasn’t the time for deductions.
One set of footsteps seemed to have led the charge a bit fervently out in front while the rest were somewhat behind. Spaced out, they maintained a strict perimeter as a group. Damn mutts...
The lone warrior at the head of the charge had run up upon the brush. Before his eyes leapt a man dressed in clothing unlike what he’d seen. With his spear arm aimed at his chest Jas timed his movements with the assailant. A single arm went up, knocking the long reaching weapon upward as he jerked his body back into a back-flap. The sudden flow of physical force caused the marine to fall back, forced to use his free arm to support him in a dismount that left Jas in a position to strike once he was back on his feet. He’d unveil a hidden blade and aim at the spearman’s chest.

Diving straight into a parry of sorts, the Kumate spearmen was caught off balance, however he was still in a much better position then his adversary, Lowering his shoulder the spear-men would attempt to drive his shoulder into his opponent. However, the fluidity of his back-flap made him soar out of the range of the spear-men's shoulder charge."Tsk, kuja na kupigana! Sungura mdogo!" The spear-men would shout arrogantly.
Unaware of the Marine's actions, The spear-men would shout in the direction of an incoming throwing knife. However due to Captain Jazpar's [Advanced Level] back-flap technique Park would soar 10 feet out of the range of the spear-man's initial attack. Responding by a throwing knife, Jazpar's maximum range with an accuracy stat of 90 was [9 feet] while he was attempting to strike a target [10 feet] away. The blade would soar toward the spear-man lazily landing 1 foot away from him.
Enraged, the Kumate spear-man would respond, " Wadudu wadogo~!!!" While at first glance, this tribesmen would seem like an ordinary human but he was a Kumate member. Meaning he was a jungle savage his manner of combat was wild and unpredictable. Flexing all of his calf muscles, the Kumate spear-men would blast forward with a sudden burst of speed which would probably dumbfound the marine...
While the Kumates weren't too smart, they were nothing to be underestimated.

With a step forward the marine captain would fall into a stance fit for battle. His fight response rose to the surface, showing in his eyes as their sight sharpened. With knife in hand, Jaz came to a head with the Kumatei spearman. It seemed as though he wanted to end this scuffle as soon as possible. The two engaged in a short but swift melee, the spearman’s reach with kept Jaz and his knife further away than he’d had liked. Faced with the point of the spear the Marine captain slashed and parried with his life on the line.
Taking a half step forward he parried once more before going on the offensive. Bringing an arm up, Jaz times his swing with the tribesman’s next strike. All he’d need was to catch a little bit of skin with this strike. Like lightning he tore through the air the primitive scout. The moment he’d draw blood would spell the end of the savage.

Sprinting forward the Spearmen would clash furiously against The Marine's blade. His own [100] strength not enough to penetrate the Marines attacks. Realizing this the spearmen would only get enraged further. Letting out an ear piercing aggressive primal shriek.
During there engagement the Marine would be able to feel the sheer power behind each of the Kumate's attacks. The tenacity of each blow would be driving him further and further back. Unaware of Jazpar's plan, the spearmen would dance right into Jazpar's parry.
A immediate silence took the battle. Watching the ferocity drain from his face the spearmen had been slashed... deeply. Watching the blood drain from the gash on his torso, the spearmen would stumble backwards. Shock overtook him. Gauging the severity of his wound, the spearmen would stand there staring at his bloody hand. The speed of Jazpar's attack was far greater then anything that the average Kumate member could muster. Much to the horror of his fellow tribesmen, as well as The Porcupine himself. "...!" The young Marine had cut through one of their own like butter. The hatred brewing now could be felt even with out haki.
Looking back at his opponent, the wounded Kumate tribesmen would smile, blood leaking through his teeth. "Hata kama ungeweza kunisielewa, siwezi kamwe kuwa wajinga kukufunua mipango yangu kwako..." The man would say, gripping his spear for perhaps the last time. His will would shine through his weapon, raising the spear high above his head, to the heavens it's self, the tribesmen would begin to spin it, and spin it violently.
With a look of pure derangement on his face, the spearmen would generate enough force to summon a mini tornado of sorts. Was he preparing a powerful slash of sorts, by the crazed look on the man's face... anything could happen. The vortex he was creating with his technique would conjurer up a wind. Summoning all manner of loose debris and dust. The spearmen would create a blinding dust storm upwards of up to [25 feet] in diameter. With dust so thick, you could no longer make out the spearmen's silhouette in the slightest.
Without warning, "Wakánda Milele!" a violent scream, With his dying act, the spearmen would charge forward in the direction he last saw his foe. His spear sharply piercing through the unknown!!!

Cheering for their brother, then watching in horror as the gods of battled abandoned him. The kumate tribe would never forgive the marine for this. How dare he slay on of the chosen ones, but as they watched. The display of spirit that their brother showed was remarkable. He was a true Kumate warrior.
Hearing him shout the rallying cry. "Wakánda Milele!" they understood the signal, they understood he chose those to be his last words. 3 archers would ready their bows. Watching once more as their brother created a distraction, they would fire longingly down upon his location which was conveniently [25 feet] from their position (Haha!). Covering an area of [15 feet] with a hail of arrows the Kumate archers would fire until A. The smoke cleared, or until B. something caused them to stop.
However they would stop at nothing to get revenge for their brother.

A last ditch effort. Hard to miss in the heat of battle, especially when a fatal blow is delivered. The chance of a turn around normally happen when the victor thinks it’s over. Speaking I his native tongue, the spearman let out a blood curdling battle cry. Noting the arrival of his tribesmen, Jaz felt a sense of accomplishment when their cheers began to die down slowly along with their kinsmen. With the last of his strength the savage spun his spear in a wild, tornado like fashion.
Somehow Jaz found himself impressed by the sheer tenacity of this tribesman. The thought of toying with the man long since died with arrival of such vigor in the face of certain death. A wall of dust began to form just as the savage let out another cry, however this one didn’t sound desperate. Rather cautionary, however it was impossible to say with the fact that Jaz wasn’t fluent in Kumatenies.
The archers in attendance readied their shots after the massage was sent, prepared to mow down their own man in order to avenge him. However that would be their undoing. Jaz hadn’t been to far from the savage after attacking. In fact he stepped just outside of the spear itself after landing the last blow. Even as his vision had been cut off, his senses where sharper than these beasts. He could picture the spear cutting through the air with sound alone, yet the breeze against his skin and hairs caused by it told in which direction and and at what pace the spear was being swung.
Charging head first into the unknown, Jaz felt the footsteps of the dying fool hit the ground in his direction. Hearing the spear change path he’d immediately dip his head low to the ground as he blasted off, knife forward. With one thrust the marine had stabbed into the proud spear man and twist the knife to deepen the blow.
Just then the sound of a volley of arrows began to rain down. The archers weren’t able to see past the smoke screen, but if they could they’d notice their kinsman become a modern pin cushion. Not missing a beat Jaz used the cover of the dust cloud to slip from the area, scaling a tree before making his way to the location of the tribes village.

Standing behind his men, the porcupine would watch stoically as his nakama was cut down, as the smoke cleared, they'd be able to bare witness to their arrow riddled friend laying dead in a pool of his own blood, However to a trained Beastman like their leader, the Kurr would know better.
He could smell the difference between his foe and his allies blood. As the arrows came down Jazpar used the body to absorb [30] points of damage, leaving [45] point of damage to strike him in the leg, leaving him with an insignificant wound to his leg. Watching him hobble into the tree tops, the Kurr would raise his hand. "Acha yake, we have more important matters to worry about." He would say. Beginning the slow march back to their village encampment. "We must secure the remainder of the village slaves, I trust that you also locked the devil fruit in my quarters correct?" He would say to his trusted right hand man. Staring at the floor, the Kurr would be on the look out for drops of blood.
