94. Isshi 20

94. Isshi 20

"Yes, that's right. He is Wapol. From the Drum Kingdom. Now living the life of a pirate." Ken said, holding on to his neck.

"Pirate? Why did he become a pirate? He is a monarch." Igaram was confused and they finally got to know why Ken had caught this guy.

"Did he kill anyone?" Usopp asked as he had never seen Ken catching someone with his hand before and spoke before that this King had killed someone before.

"He hails from a kingdom which is known for having some of the best doctors of the Grand Line. That country has more reverence for the doctors than the King. So this guy got jealous, and then proceeded to kill the doctors except for 20 of the finest doctors. He named that group as Isshi 20. With Isshi 20 under his beck and call, the citizens of his kingdom were forced to pray to him, provide him more money for any of the health problems they faced. You can already guess what he might have done with that power."

"What?"

"Nani?"

"Such cruelty!"

Igaram and Vivi were especially enraged hearing this. Vivi had finally remembered that fateful night in the Reverie where she was slapped by this guy. She had to endure the pain as she didn't want any war to take place just because of a slap.

Vivi might have forgotten a lot since she was very young at that time, but Igaram had not forgotten what happened at the Reverie. Now they heard more and found out that Wapol was more outrageous and cruel than they expected.

Vivi was gritting her teeth and Igaram didn't hold back. He came towards the dangling Wapol who was literally gurgling in pain and punched him right at his face with full force.

Wapol had come with his own ship which actually had the Isshi 20 along with a few soldiers and Kuromarimo. None spoke a word when Igaram had hit him.

"See Wapol. Your monarchy, your title means nothing when you come to the sea. The sea is free and wild. Here only strength rules."

"We don't understand?"

"What I mean is that I am going to break apart the jaw of this person. Will you be able to keep him alive?"

"Yes.. Yes.. We can." replied the doctors in a meek voice after a moment of silence. With no warning, Ken caught the lower jaw of Wapol and with one jerk he tore apart the lower jaw of Wapol. Ken did it so fast that nobody didn't even register what he had meant when he asked the doctors.

"Wapol sama!!"

"My King."

Chess and Kuromarimo shouted in anger when they saw Ken doing such a cruel act. Blood splashed everywhere on the deck as Ken did that. None of his crew mates expected Ken to do that. All this time he had been the most sane and silent guy. It was at this point they realized that Ken had another violent side of him.

Ken didn't hold the bloodied Wapol who had gone unconscious one more second and threw his half lifeless body at the ship of Wapol. Wapol's devil fruit made him eat things and then modify them according to the requirements.

But he wouldn't be able to do so if there was no jaw. His non-existent jaw wouldn't allow him to engulf anything and he would only be forced to drink through a fluid based diet for the rest of his life. Of course, Wapol could install a metal jaw to eat with the help of the doctors, but he wouldn't let Wapol have that luxury.

Ken looked at Kuromarimo and ordered.

"Follow us and get off at the next island. If I am not wrong, the next island is your home country. We will hand you over to them. You dare not run away. Or else there will be more pain than what Wapol is facing now."

"Yes.. yes.." Kuromarimo and Chess nodded their heads in quick succession. These pirates were more cruel than they thought and they needed to watch their step.

Later after a rope was tied between Merry Go and their weird sized ship, they sailed again.
