One Piece's Strongest Vice-Captain

"Gah!!" The three half-dragons wandered a few meters away from Nero, their hunger prompted them to prey on the fresh flesh in front of them.But the intuition of beasts made them only dare to stay a few meters away and dare not take a step forward.

"Why are you..." Seeing that Nero looked like he wanted to throw him out, Momonosuke immediately stopped his awkward prose.Like lightning, he coiled his slender body around Nero's calf. "I'm sorry, please forgive my presumptuousness. It's just that I don't think we need to stay here. This is a dump, and it doesn't seem to welcome us."

"Not welcome, I think it's just that we haven't communicated." Nero snapped his fingers, and the three half-dragons who were looking at them immediately made a posture ready to attack.

"How could it be possible to communicate, they are all beasts! Talk to beasts, do you think you are one of those onmyojis who can control shikigami!" Momonosuke felt very resentful about his muttsurini father .It's not good to find anyone, why do you have to find a guy who can't see the situation clearly to save yourself. "Sir, fire-breathing, this place is deep into the enemy's camp. If there is a fight, we will be surrounded."

"We won't fight. Sometimes beasts are far easier to talk to than humans. What's more, they have changed from humans to this appearance just like you. If Abis is here, it will be easy to calm them down , but in this situation, I can only use a rougher method.”[

Before Momonosuke questioned his words, he suddenly felt his wrapped legs swell a little.When he looked up again, the weak-looking man with ponytail was no longer in his eyes. "This... this is... you are a ghost! No, you are a tengu! It's not...you must be a tengu ghost!"

It has lavender skin, and a pair of bat wings spread out behind the first pair of horns.Although there is a slight discrepancy, Nero's appearance looks very much like a collection of ghosts and tengus in the legend of Wano Country.

Glancing at the little dragons who had randomly classified them into categories, Nero turned his attention to the three half-dragons.Although the demon's destructive aura is not as powerful as the domineering aura that can directly stun opponents, it is still enough to deter these three guys who have just transformed into this look.What's more, for the demons, those unlucky ghosts who drink their blood almost have the same control as their masters.

"So, beasts are always better at communicating than some humans. Obedience to the strong is also a good choice." Nero moved his body slightly, and the shadows of three half-dragons were reflected in his blood-red pupils. "You are weak. Even if you become what you are now, and gain strength at the cost of losing most of your sanity, you are still weak."

"But I think even the weak should have the right to resent. So~~ do you resent? Turn you into what you are now?"

The cruel and fuzzy memory suddenly became clear, and the shadow of someone who was more grateful emerged from his mind.What it brings is incomparable resentment, the resentment of betrayal, the resentment of being used, and the resentment of everything that has happened to him until now.

The three half-dragons who had calmed down suddenly roared, which startled Momonosuke who was boldly looking at them.

"Very well, as a wild beast, you should remain wild, otherwise you will lose the value of existence. But leave your loyalty to me, and turn your fangs and claws to my enemies, so maybe I will let you get what you want .”

"Surrender or die, give me a choice!"

"Gah~~" The half-dragons bent down, their long and narrow heads pressed against the ground, making a completely defenseless appearance.

"Very good." Nero turned around and walked out through the big hole in the door.Without any hesitation, the three half-dragons followed Nero and walked out.

"Hey, are you sure they're really okay?" Momanosuke grabbed Nero's clothes and climbed onto his shoulders.Turning around to look at the three half-dragons, there was already some rationality in their eyes.But that's just the level from a hungry wolf that eats people to a mad dog that eats people. At least Momonosuke feels that they still look at him as if they were looking at a piece of sausage.

"Not everyone is as lucky as you, and maybe the man-made devil fruit you ate is a safe version. In simple words, you can understand that they have become lunatics." Drinking the blood of the devil can only become a tyrannical person. killing machine.The orcs on the continent of Azeroth have set a good example of this.They may regain their rationality if the master of their own blood is killed, but there is no reason to release the thugs made by others with their own blood at will, not to mention the price is their own life.

"Isn't that more dangerous!" Momanosuke yelled frantically, seeing that Nero was completely unmoved, he had no choice but to turn his head and look at the three half-dragons vigilantly.No matter what this arrogant tengu ghost thinks, Momonosuke, who is completely dependent on him now, doesn't want this guy to die here accidentally.

In the very center of the laboratory building, black tubes meandered in the darkness like poisonous snakes, extending to the deepest part out of sight.Translucent jars stood in the vast space, and some transparent liquids were churning in them.

The door of the laboratory was slowly opened, and a little light appeared in the dark room.

After stepping into this room with a weird atmosphere, Smoker looked around.It seemed to be a place where a certain medicine was manufactured, and the letter s was written loudly on the jar, as if afraid that others would not see it. "Is that why you came here specially, pirate. S, frankly, I have never heard of this medicine. But I think you should have said that I can find that man here."

"Don't worry, the smoker is in charge. I walked in here with you, and Caesar and the others must know the news that I have betrayed. So if Virgo says, he must be waiting for me here." Luo glanced at the deep darkness around him, Suddenly grabbing the handle of the Nodachi in his hand, he drew out the knife and slashed towards the glass jar in the middle.

"This kind of thing is the only raw material used to make artificial devil fruits, and it is also the lifeblood of joker!" [

"Clang!" A dark long stick suddenly protruded from the darkness to block Luo's slashing wave.

"You really don't leave room for anything, Luo." A man's figure slowly emerged from the darkness.Wearing a coat and sunglasses, there are still some fast food crumbs on the three-point-shaped sideburns.

The man in front of him always looks like this unkempt even when he goes out. Many residents near G5 are amused by him, but this man doesn't care about it at all.He doesn't eat well and doesn't like to laugh, but he is deeply admired by the residents under his rule and the g5 soldiers.

"I didn't expect you to be here, Branch Chief Virgo."

"I'm also sorry for Smoker." Virgo didn't show any expression, and still had a statue-like calm demeanor. "It is a pity that our last meeting was so unpleasant."

"Me too... I really can't bear to tell those bastard subordinates your true face... They worship you like a father. Let them know that you betrayed..."

"I never betrayed anyone. From the very beginning, I was under the joker, and the people above know this very well. But I think it's better not to have too many people know about this kind of thing." The green bamboo in Virgo's hand began to slowly With a thick metallic color, "I'll have a good talk with those guys after I finish you off. It's time for them to retire."

"What do you guys want to do!" Smoker pulled out the ten hands behind him, and his lower body turned into a cloud of white smoke, and stormed towards Virgo.

Virgo moved a few steps slightly sideways, and blocked Smoker's cross-slashing ten hands with his backhanded bamboo staff, which was completely covered in armed domineering colors.

"Why are you angry, Smoker? Are you angry about those rogue navies? You don't need to be like this. I am the branch leader of g5, so their fate is determined by me!"

"Vergo!" Smoker's body exploded into white smoke, and the next moment, Ten Hands swept towards Virgo from behind with the sound of wind.

However, Virgo seemed to open his eyes behind his back.Before the attack reached his body, an iron bridge avoided the attacking ten hands.At the same time, the bamboo stick in his hand stabbed at the white smoke behind him like a poisonous snake coming out of its hole.

"Bang!" When the bamboo stick knocked down the white mist, it didn't pass through directly, but made a muffled sound of hitting the entity.The white smoke instantly merged into Smoker's appearance, and he involuntarily spat out a mouthful of blood from his mouth after being hit hard in the abdomen, and flew backwards and hit the side railing.

"Have you been overwhelmed by anger, Smoker? Facing a domineering user stronger than yourself, turning into a smoke form to increase your size will only make you bigger and become a bigger target That's all."

After flexibly turning the bamboo stick in his hand a few times, Virgo looked at Smoker with an expression on his face. "With the addition of armed color domineering, do you understand what effect even such a small bamboo will have in my hands? My title is Ghost Bamboo!"

"Your domineering is indeed very strong, but... smoke can blind your eyes! I didn't expect that I would actually cooperate with pirates one day!" Smoker laughed at himself, "Don't let me down, you damn Pirates!"

"You won't be disappointed, Home Smoker!" Luo held a beating heart, pulled off his clothes and pressed it against the hollow of his chest. "Now... you can start Virgo!"
