Ultimate Fruit

A few days have passed. Two figures appeared in the area above where Punk Hazard used to be.

One of them was rather large and his body was covered in chains. What's peculiar was that there seemed to be something rotating around his head. Looking closely, it was a propeller-shaped hair…

This man is one of Don Quixote pirates who ate the Guru Guru Devil Fruit and became a Rotating Human. Buffalo.

Due to this, he could actually use the propeller to fly in the sky as long as he also rotates his feet to lift himself up.

Standing above him was a slender woman wearing maid clothes with a short skirt and a pair of goggles. She was also carrying all sorts of weapons behind her that were larger than her own height.

She is also a pirate of the Don Quixote Pirates. Baby 5. After eating the Buki Buki Devil Fruit, she became a Weapon Human.

The goggles on her eyes started to acc_u_mulate water from her tears.

"That bastard Doflamingo! He blasted my precious fiance! Even destroying the whole town together with him! I won't forgive him! I will definitely kill that bastard when I get back!"

Hearing Baby 5 swear on top of him, Buffalo sweated.

What fiance? Just because an old beggar gives you flowers and confesses to you, you actually accepted him!

"Young master just cares for you like a younger sister. You should start learning how to refuse other people!"

"But...he needed me!"

"When someone asks you, you're unable to refuse! You should do something about that! Ordering 50 different newspapers is nonsense. And you lend too much money! And you buy too much! How much is your debt now!?"

Buffalo clicked his tongue in annoyance.

Baby 5 seemed like she couldn't get his point.

"Shut up! It's only 98 Million Berries!"

"By the way, lend me 2 million."

"Eh!?"

H-he needs me…!

But...I don't have money right now…

Baby 5 stopped thinking and asked.

"W-when do you need them?"

"I want to have fun in the casino when we get back."

"Ok, I'll prepare them as soon as we finish the mission! But I'll definitely kill Doflamingo first!"

"..."

Buffalo can only shake his head in his mind.

Why else would the young master keep killing all of your so-called fiances? At this rate, if anyone asked to sleep with you, you would still agree!

"Anyway, are we there yet? How's the vivre card?"

Baby 5 searched her pockets and found a piece of paper.

Just as she was about to check if they were near, the paper...suddenly disappeared!

"I-it's gone!"

"Huh? What's gone?"

"The vivre card! Vergo is dead!"

Baby 5 exclaimed.

Just a while ago, Doflamingo had received an SOS from Vergo who was chopped up and unable to move. Only after much difficulty was he able to move his severed hand to his pocket and take out a small denden mushi which he used to contact Doflamingo.

After knowing what had happened, Doflamingo feared for the worst and sent Baby 5 and Buffalo to look for them ahead while he and his crew got ready to leave on a ship.

Buffalo fell silent for a moment then called out to Baby 5.

"Contact the young master...Vergo is no more."

"Aren't we going to take a look?"

"How are we going to reach there? That vivre card is the only pointer we have to Punk Hazard. Vergo had the Eternal Pose which leads to there."

Baby 5 nodded and contacted Doflamingo.

After receiving the news, Doflamingo fell silent then ordered his men to stop preparing to leave.

If Caesar was still alive, it meant that whoever killed Vergo was after Caesar and needed him alive. So as long as they can find Caesar, they can find whoever was responsible for Vergo's death.

Seeing that Caesar's vivre card was still intact, he clenched his fist and pounded the table, instantly destroying it.

"..."

He didn't shout in anger. He was still calm. The act of destroying the table was simply to vent his frustrations.

After a while, he pulled another denden mushi and contacted Monet.

Onboard the Going Merry, Lucas and his group were sailing towards Dressrosa when suddenly, Monet's denden mushi rung.

Lucas had already sent the kidnapped children to Doctor Kureha who was on his floating island and explained the situation to her. She promised that she'll do what she can to help remove the drugs in the children's system. Law also helped with this a bit.

As for the Revolutionaries, Betty had instructed them to go back and report to Dragon but Betty herself had already called him beforehand. It was more of them just reporting they are back instead.

Right now, the people on board the ship are Lucas, Luna, Hina, Monet, Betty, Kinnemon, and Momonosuke. Oh, there's also Law.

"Monet...you are still alive?"

"...Yes, young master."

"Good. It seems those bastards took down Vergo...they probably have Caesar too. Do you know who these bastards are?"

Lucas showed a shush gesture to her.

"...No. I'm afraid not. The man wore one of the gas masks in the lab so I couldn't see his face."

"Are they still on the island?"

Seems like news of the island being destroyed until nothing was left still hasn't made way to him yet.

Lucas nodded at Monet.

"Yes."

"Good. Now, listen to me. In the 3rd laboratory lies another weapon...that 4 years ago was used to destroy the 1st and 2nd lab and their island. If you push the trigger button, the only one able to survive will be Caesar since he can resist the poisonous gas…"

Monet showed an expressionless face as she listened to what Doflamingo was saying.

She already knew what he wanted her to do…

Doflamingo continued to speak.

"Sorry, please die. And take everything with you."

"...Understood...young master."

Afterward, Monet ended the call and continued to remain silent.

Lucas sighed and didn't know what to do to console her so he could only pat her on the back before walking away.

Law shook his head.

"This is the kind of man Doflamingo is. Once you are no longer of use, he disposes of you."

Monet shot him a look.

"It doesn't matter. In the past, my life belonged to the young master. Whether I live or die, as long as the young master wills, it, I would gladly kill myself...but now, I can't even die if I wanted to."

Monet looked at Lucas' back and sighed.

"Going against that man is futile...that power he showed...even the young master cannot do anything about it."

I'm sorry, young master...with him around, you can no longer become...the Pirate King…

…

Back in Dressrosa, Doflamingo looked at the denden mushi in deep thought.

Then, he picked up Baby 5's denden mushi and called her.

"Say, you guys should be near Punk Hazard by now right?"

"Probably. The vivre card disappeared before we could see the island."

"Did you see if there were any big explosions in the area?"

Baby 5 paused for a moment then answered.

"No. Everything's clear here."

"...I see."

Doflamingo ended the call calmly. However, a vein popped up from his forehead and his expression grew grim.

He pulled another vivre card. This time it was Monet's.

Sure enough, it was still intact as well.

Doflamingo gritted his teeth and left. Without another second left to lose, he flew to the skies using his ability by attaching thin strings to the clouds as he pulled himself forward in the sky.

On the Going Merry, Lucas saw that Luna was playing with her new 'sisters' and started to test out more about his powers.

After some tests, he found that he can copy any devil fruit ability he knows except for Toki's time fruit since he couldn't return to the past.

Hm, I think Toki also said that she could only travel to the future...but that would be problematic so let's not do that for now…

Lucas also tried to create something from nothing.

He tried to go big immediately and imagined a warship to appear beside them...but nothing happened.

So creating stuff from nothing is impossible too...or maybe there's something I'm still missing.

Lucas scratched his head as even though he tried to create small things, it was still not possible.

Too bad, if I can just wish for a Death Note to appear, all my problems would be solved easily...

While he was trying to see if he could do more, he felt something approaching from the distance in the skies.

Lucas saw who was approaching and grinned. It was Doflamingo!

Lucas didn't disturb the others and directly teleported over in front of him.

As Lucas floated in front of Doflamingo and his wings spread behind him, Doflamingo's eyes widened in surprise behind his sunglasses.

"YOU!?"

"Hm? Ah, I thought I was going to see the real you. Turns out this is just one of your string clones huh?"

Lucas ignored his shock and shook his head upon observing Doflamingo closely.

"Since that's the case...just die."

With a snap of his fingers, Doflamingo suddenly burns into flames!

The string clone didn't mind the fire around its body as he glared at Lucas hatefully.

"This isn't the end!"

"Don't worry. We'll be coming to Dressrosa soon. Once we do, it's already Checkmate for you."

Lucas waved his hands and the remaining embers exploded, leaving nothing left in its place.

The next second, Lucas returned back to the ship and acted as if nothing had happened.

That night, Lucas received a call from Luffy and the others that they have also finished dealing with Zephyr and are on their way to meet him.

Since Lucas had left a vivre card on him, there should be a way to find them somehow later.

Still, Lucas told them that they are on their way to Dressrosa and to meet up there instead.

The days passed by peacefully after that.

Hina kept a tight watch on both Monet and Betty, especially during the night. Every time, she would lock up my door with her ability to prevent Betty from sneaking in…

Luna sleeps with Lucas as well so Lucas didn't mind. Since Luna is with him, even if they do sneak in...they can't possibly do anything to him with Luna around, right?

As usual, Hina and Betty are arguing while Monet cooks their dinner.

Law is minding his own business and Momonosuke and Kinnemon seemed to be training.

Luna is playing with Igneel as they fly in the skies.

Suddenly, Luna shouted at them from above.

"Daddy! I see a big ship! It's glittering!"

"Huh?"

Lucas flew up as well and looked at where Luna was pointing.

There is indeed a huge ship there...and it's shining bright in the night sea! On the front, there were two huge turtles pulling at the ship forwards like a horse pulling a chariot.

Lucas blinked in surprise as he saw the ship.

"This...isn't this Gild Tesoro's cruise ship? That gold guy from the movie?"

What the hell is this guy doing here?

Anyway, this is none of my business. It's better to steer clear from such an annoying thing.

However, Luna was already looking at him with glittering eyes…

"Daddy! I wanna go! That place...looks like a lot of money!"

"..."

Nami...we really need to have a talk when you get back...
