In the colosseum, Lucas was observing the last round of this fake battle royal, and Doflamingo would have all the losers turn into toys and free slaves.
The final round was about to begin, and the Devil Fruit –the reward- is inside a chest that was above the arena, so the people can see it.
Lucas wondered if Doflamingo is stupid, like in the original show, to show the fruit in such an obvious place. And then, a plot twist happens and someone else will take it.
The final competitors started to enters, a couple of giants. Some king, Zorro, and other strong people. The most notable one was one of Doflamingo's strongest offices. Doflamigno seems to have absolute confidence in this man's victory, to expose the fruit like that.
"Mrs Momousagi."
"Yes."
"Don't bet this round."
Lucas said, to earn a shocking reply from her.
"Excuse me."
Momousagi looked confusingly at Lucas. She wasn't dumb and could understand what he is trying to point. But it was hard for her not to put money in something.
"You heard me." Lucas looked around to a couple of the officers he invited, thinking they would be a good witnesser.
He looked to the seats, to see that Mikita and the other girls aren't there. As expected, Doflamingo is sending a few of his men. But unknown to him, Lucas is getting rid of those people as the tournament is playing since he may forget about them later.
The commenter in the coliseum made a strongly excited cry: "The final round of the Royal Battle started."
Below, Law and the rest of the competitors started to fight in a hard battle. Lucas then opened his system and looked through the notifications he left hanging.
One of them belonged to Law, the other belonged to Machvise, as Lucas made sure to beat him so he can take the fruit back at any time he wants.
"What is this," Lucas murmured. He didn't expect to see an additional notification.
[Ding, do you want to learn Chemistry (y/n)]
He kept thinking about what is going on, and since when he got this notification. It can't be during s.e.x when he silent the notifications.
Maybe this happened when he read that chemistry book at Caesar's lab.
"What are you asking about," Gion looked to see Lucas confusingly looking at the arena. She followed his gaze to see if there is anything down there.
"Ah, nothing," Lucas snapped back when he heard Gion calling him.
-x-X-x-
In a road between a town and the capital of Dressrosa, Mikita, Vivi, Robin, Zala, and Lucci who was eating Chocolate found themselves in the face of some officers of Doflamingo.
As Doflamingo knew of their strength, he sent 4 strong officers to deal with them.
One was a sissy, one was an old man who is obsessed with G symbol, the other was Machvise, the fat man who got beaten by Mikita and had a shock that didn't allow him to use his fruit's power to the max
Behind them was a big army as well. It looks that Doflamingo isn't underestimating Zorro's crew as he did in Paradise, so he sent his second strongest officers.
If this doesn't work, then by the end of the tournament, they would face stronger opponents.
"Long time no see, the one who likes to copy the other's style."
Mikita looked at Machvise grinned widely showing all of her teeth like a lioness.
"We meet again'inn," Machvise said, adjusting his black sunglasses and looking at this girl with hatred. "I was born before you, you are the one who was copying me, inn."
"How dare you," Mikita clenched her teeth.
He still remembers everything that happened that day; how was he sure of his victory to lose against someone with inferior ability.
That time, every bone in his body was broken, and he had to get his ass saved by Doflamingo. When he came to Dressrosa, he needed the help of a small woman that can heal, and he took a long time to recuperate.
But despite that, he faced a mental trauma, he became disable and couldn't use more than 10 tons.
"So, which one hurts Big Brother ."
The sissy, who was called Dellinger, took a step forward and touched his white hat that had horns on the side of his head.
Dellinger's teeth were fangs as he glared at the five girls. He was obviously pointing to Machvise.
"Let's get done with them quickly, Doflamingo wanted to make their boss see their bodies before he gets rid of him." The man in grey said. He was called Gladius.
"Oh, Gladius, but I want to kill them slowly and painfully." The sissy now looked like a shark. "At least, Zorro guy would be dealt with later."
The girls chuckled in reaction.
You... deal with Zorro. The guy can kill them while being sleeping, so let alone them. maybe they should unleash Lucci to show them some terror.
Sighing and not wanting to waste time, Gladius extended his arm and aimed at the five. On his hand, there was a wrist gun. "Let me tell you, I have pop-Pop fruit, anything I touch would expend until it pops and explodes."
After this small introduction, many rounded bullets flew out of his golden wrist gun and expanded in the mid of the way toward them.
"Thousand Flowers: Black Wall." Robin took a step forward and crossed her arms. Many pitch-black arms started to appear from the ground and made their way up, creating a black wall around her.
"Mikita."
Lucci finished her chocolate and looked at Mikita with her lips turning black.
"Here some chocolate."
Mikita gave Lucci some chocolate, not looking like she is taking things seriously.
*Bam* *Bam*
The expanded bullets crushed with a black wall and exploded, making a loud noise. But it seems that Robin countered it with ease.
"Tsk, this is not enough, men, shoot."
Soon, a battle begun, as the guys in back too steps forward with their swords and weapons. Robin, of course, kept the wall around and used her ability to create more arms, ready to spam Finger Gun.
"Hey, I can't have a healthy kid with all of you around. Go back or you will regret it."
Vivi, who was silent, finally talked. The hormones started to take effect at her. Though this was her third month as a pregnant woman, she had been stressed enough with noises, and the hormones are playing on her nerves.
Lucas told her not to come, yet she insisted. Maybe she should have listened to him and stayed- but she just wanted to observe things.
Vivi touched the ground with her hand; she had her fruit for a long time, and it got awaken.
Logia Fruit users had a different awakening, yet familiar to Paramecia. The users don't change things they touch into their element, but to be more exact, they change the environment itself to the best environment of their element along with the weather to be suitable to the element.
And this change is permanent whether the Logia user lost or not
Suddenly, the heat started to rise and the ground started to become sand beneath their feet.
"What."
"what is going on."
The officers and the others exclaimed their shock, seeing the ground turn into sand, or the environment into the desert.
It didn't stop her, the sand beneath their legs was so soft, and it was dragging them down. they had no chance to escape, except for the officers, who could quickly react.
Gladius popped his legs- exploding them- and flew back out of the range of the sand. Machvise jumped high floating, the G old-man vanished quickly and kept flipping back avoiding the sands, while Dellinger jumped at the right time.
"Vivi, I just adjusted my hair," said Zala who had been around; she patted her curly hair and looked to the people who just avoided and jumped.
Before they land, Zala smirked and touched the ground as she too got an ability awakening.
Dellinger, who was about to land on a rock out of the range of Vivi's fruit, was free-falling, felt something with his Haki, which was late.
Multi black spikes calved with Armament Haki, appeared on the ground and extended toward Dellinger, trying to piece him. Dellinger quickly reacted and tried to kick one spiky rock, using the momentum to get back. But then, more spiked appeared on the ground and flew up like bullets, piercing his body like it was Tofu.
"Dellinger!!!" yelled Machvise.
He just now saw one of his comrades getting pierced by that woman's ability. How could he not get angry?
He ran forward and jumped floating. Though the beating he got limited his ability, it gave Machvise the ability to reduce his weight. He jumped and headed toward Zala, but all of a sudden, he felt that he lost his ability to control his weight. Zala, of course, welcomed him as some bulky muscles started to extend from her body before turning her arms into spikes. Once Machvise fall, he would die.
"Things are not over, copy cat." Mikita, who still has grudged, reduced her mass to 0.005 Ton and appeared in front Machvise, putting both of her hands on his arms.
"Take this, head butt." covering herself with iron Mass, she slammed her head quickly toward Machvise in a position that focuses her mass on her head.
As soon as her head got close, the mass suddenly increased to some 200 tons.
Machvise, just now, got a fast yet a heavy head-butt. He felt that he was hit by building, but all focused on his head, which didn't have enough defence, and his brain was scattered from the shockwave as he flew backwards.
Mikita then reduced her weight and landed down to see how the rest of the girls are doing. She took her hat and pats it sometime. "Vivi is angry for sure."
Vivi was chasing after the Old man, Leo G.
Despite the latter being a fearsome martial artist, he didn't have a chance to apply it in the battle, as Vivi was making the sand around her morph into fists, swords and spears, which turned into black ink colour, making them harder than metal.
Leo G was dodging black swords and other weapons. In the mid of his way, he could reflect a sword with a kick, yet he got a hit by a giant black sand fist that was harder than iron and fell down before the rest of the sand objects hit him.
Vivi, though she was furious, spared Leo G's life, since she saw that he was a very old man; and her good nature didn't allow her to do that. Despite living as an undercover assassin, she didn't learn that ruthlessness like Robin, Zala and Mikita.
By the time Vivi was done from the old man, Robin was facing the Pop man.
"Take this." Gladius extended his body, threatening to blow it and throwing poisoned needles in the way, killing Robin on the spot.
"Got you," Robin said crossing her arms.
From the ground and on the trees, thousands of legs appeared. All of them aimed at Gladius and started moving swiftly
"Thousand Storm-Legs," Robin said. Now, from each leg, a compressed air blade flew to Gladius who turned into a balloon. Getting shot by thousands air blade slashes, he had no chance to block, neither dodge and eventually, he fell down.
The battle quickly ended up.
"MO. Mikita, do you have something to eat."
"No,"
"But, Mo, Lucas always gives me food when I need it."
"I don't know how he does that magic. Let's just go."
"Mo, but Lucci want to eat."
Lucci was complaining while the other girls were walking away. Eventually, she lowered her head and followed them.
-x-X-x-
Back to the Colosseum, Lucas was looking to the new fruit in his storage [Kilo-Kilo].
He looked at the Colosseum, and made eye contact with Law, who just dodged a giant axe slash from some woman, then avoided a punch from a giant man. As he was done, a boxer approached him and tried to give him a strong punch while still warming up.
As it seems, everyone is ganging upon him.
Law, of course, could win and fight back against those strong people, but he chose to wait for Lucas's signal as they agreed.
'It's time for a plan, make your move.'
Law gave a quick nod that said 'I understand'
