Chapter 119 - One Piece... 3/3 Part 2

Red Line~

Mary Geoise…

Silver's punch sent IM at the palace and crashed into it. When IM crashed at the palace, the place crumbled. No one should underestimate Silver's punch that's fused with his Dragonic Armament Haki. IM flew and crashed into the palace balcony, but it did not stop there.

The balcony crumbled and IM continued to crash into a wall, breaking it. IM crashed into walls one after another as his momentum slowly dropped and stopped just right into the center of his so-called Throne.

Outside…

Silver floated right beside Dragon who's still stuck mid-air. Silver canceled IM's time ability on Dragon and to his surprise, Dragon continued his flight down with his fist forward and crashed into the crumbled cement of the palace.

'Right! I forgot he only got stuck in time but didn't lose his momentum. Oh, well' thought Silver as he watched Dragon crash down below.

Silver then used his Observation Haki, locating where IM is at. Soon he found him, coughing out blood inside a place that looks like a throne room.

Not minding Dragon and the others, Silver flew inside the palace, where IM is at. Not long after, he reached the place what greeted Silver's sight is a place that has a throne at the top with swords place down below and stairs with a red mat place in it.

Seeing the place that gave the feeling of unease and eerie and IM coughing out blood who crashed into the throne decided. He will destroy the place.

Silver activated his {True Lightning Form} and turned into lightning itself. Silver's body turned into a blue like. Lightning cracked out of him with some dark crimson.

IM seeing Silver turned into a lightning man looked at him with angry eyes and said, "Lightning fruit. Do you think that is enough to defeat me? "as he stood up and grabbed his saber again. Im then clad himself in Armament Haki also his saber.

Activating his time ability, IM stopped Silver's time and froze him in place. Walking down with saber in hand towards Silver and soon reached him. IM raised his saber and swung it down vertically with all of his strength intending to kill Silver.

A saber clad in peak armament haki came down towards Silver, who's standing there with his {True Lightning Form} stuck in place.

IM smiled coldly, thinking that he had won.

But!

Who is Silver?

Did you think time fruit could really stop him?

No!

Silver just let IM use his fruit ability on him. He could feel that the time stop, but only for him, he couldn't move but his thoughts are clear. 'Seems like IM's still hasn't mastered his fruit. Disappointing. Here I thought I could finally fight someone strong but seems like he is also a weakling' thought Silver as he watched IM neared him and slash the saber at him.

Silver activated his own time ability and canceled IMs'.

IM who smiled thinking that he won because Silver isn't moving and the saber nearing Silver, got sent flying again and crashed into the stairs.

IM didn't know what happened; He didn't know how he got sent flying and crashing. Coughing out blood again, he quickly composed himself and tried to stand up, but failed. He finally felt pain, his gut hurt a lot and coughed out more blood. IM went on four and looked at Silver, wide eyes in disbelief. He strugglingly said, "H-how!"

"Did you think your time fruit ability could really defeat me? Like I said, you are just an ant in my eyes," said Silver.

He continued. "If you think my lightning isn't enough to defeat you. You're horribly mistaken. Tell me, do you want to die by my lightning or my time ability? You didn't even mastered time fruit's full ability," with a mocking smile.

"You! Just who are you! I have been around since the beginning, but I have never heard of you! What time ability! There is only one fruit that has the power and I have it!" angrily shouted IM.

"Hmm. It's bothersome speaking to you. I'll just let Dragon handle you after taking your fruit," said Silver.

Silver then activated his {Taker} ability and tried to take the fruit out of IM.

IM didn't know why, but he felt danger. IM then tried to use his fruit ability. "Time - Reversal!" and tried to revert time back.

But!

Before his fruit ability could fully activate. Silver with his {True Lightning Form} quickly went atop IM and with his fist covered in armament Haki with lightning cracking around it, hit IM in the back of his head.

IM couldn't respond. Everything went so fast that he didn't even notice that he got hit in the head.

IM fell, face first into the hard cemented floor. The floor cracked as dust arose as it made a crater.

The throne got destroyed and everything. IM got buried into the crater. Strugglingly, IM tried to activate his fruit ability, but Silver noticed and kicked IM at his back, burying him even deeper.

IM again tried to use his fruit ability, but Silver canceled it with his time ability. IM tried and tried but only to get hit by Silver and getting his ability canceled.

Silver seeing IM in a bloodied state and couldn't use his ability anymore picked up IM out of the crater. Silver then used his {Taker} ability and took the fruit out of IM.

IM who's bloodied, beaten up, and feeling weak felt all of his strength left him. Silver healed him using his {Instant All Zero} skill and hit IM again.

"Weak. And you dare sit at a throne? Pathetic!" said Silver and threw IM out and followed with a kick along with some lightning hitting IM.

Outside…

The pirates continued drinking when Silver flew inside the palace.

The dragons continued 'playing' the pigs.

Some drank, some played, some cheered, some watched Sabo, Ace, Jack, and Hulk and cheered with booze in hand.

Not long after, the crumbling palace finally completely collapsed.

Boom!

A bloodied figure flew out of the crumbling palace followed by Silver.

Silver in his {True Lightning Form} went atop IM and kicked him again in the gut, sending him crashing to the ground.

Silver flew down with a fruit in hand. Everyone watching noticed the fruit but said nothing and cheered as they chug down their boozes.

Silver thought about the fruit; He doesn't need it.

Contemplating, Silver threw the fruit towards Shanks as Shanks caught it with both hands, letting go off the mug he's holding.

Silver said, "Shanks, I entrust this fruit to you. Put it to good use" and smiled.

Shanks crew got shocked as their eyes widened. They knew just how powerful the Time-Time Fruit is, and Silver is just giving it like that?

Shanks asked, "Are you sure about giving me this fruit?"

"Yeah, I trust you," said Silver. He then looked at Dragon who's frowning and said, "Dragon, he is yours."

Dragon nodded and walked towards IM, who's laying at the crater. Dragon used his wind ability and took IM up into the sky. He needed to interrogate him.

Why did Dragon founded the revolutionary?

Why does he hates the World Government?

Why do they say he has the highest bounty?

Because Dragon knew things others don't.

..........

Years ago….

Dragon told Silver.

"Luffy's mother is a World Noble.

I saw her in a certain island dressed in a clothing of civilians, not the same as the world nobles.

She was getting abused by pirates, and for some luck, I met and saved her.

After that, we spent times together. We fell in love with each other.

Living free, out of other's sight.

But who knew, IM came together with the Elders and many more.

I fought them off, but there are just too many of them.

I tried everything I can to protect her. I didn't know that she is a world noble of high rank.

I lost the battle; IM took her away from me.

She was already pregnant when IM took her away.

I spent months recuperating and finding a fruit. I charge towards Mary Geoise.

I killed world nobles, a lot. As I search for my wife and my unborn son.

I found her, finally, after almost spending all of my strength just to find my wife.

I saw her holding a child, with her weakened state while holding the child as tears run down her eyes.

Seeing me, she was glad and sad.

She handled our child and said, "Please. Hide him away. Don't let the nobles find out bout his existence."

Tears run down my eyes. I nodded and kissed my wife farewell.

I wanted to take her, but after I kissed her.

IM came and so did the Elders and many more, surrounding us.

I am already weakened at that time. I fought my way out. I tried to take my wife but IM took her away.

Desperately, I fought my way out. Heeding my wife's wish.

Bloodied and weakened, I struggled.

Using all of my remaining strength, I used my fruit ability and flew away out of everyone's sight.

Months passed…

I heard that my father Monkey D. Garp is around somewhere near to where I am.

I went to him. Ashamed, I requested that he take care of his grandson. Named Monkey D. Luffy because I can't. If I took him with me, he might get hurt. I already have a bounty in my head. So I left Luffy to my father.

Not knowing what to do after that. I traveled around everywhere.

Seeing pirates pillaging towns and villages, I fought and killed them.

World Government is the same. So I formed a new group. A new power to overthrow the government.

Many beliefs slowly formed. Slowly, the group I founded grew.

That group is the revolutionaries.

I thought that when we were strong enough, we would overthrow the current world government.

Promise me.

If you can really defeat IM, let me be the one to kill him.

I need to know about my wife.

And I will tell you a certain secret that I found out.

A secret the world nobles are hiding. "

Silver replied.

"Nah, keep your secret. I'm not interested. But sure, I'll let you kill IM."

Then he disappeared, leaving Dragon whose mouth is twitching. Thinking, 'After all I just said, you say you're not interested and disappeared just like that!? At least act like you care. Damn it!'
