Disclaimer—One Piece and all associated characters ect belongs to Eiichiro Oda not me I just enjoy reading/watching it. Spoken dialogue belongs to him if it seems very familiar-which likely won't happen in this one.
As I come up with ways I will add them, I doubt I will reach 1000 but you never know. My mind is a scary place.
Warning: This is deserving of the M rating for nothing less than violence in pretty gory detail at times.
-also not Beta'd, still waiting to hear back from someone.
Why? Frankly if you start thinking about DF applications any of them are pretty scary if you have an imagination and have even a touch of morbidity in your mind. Example, Luffy could punch someone in the mouth or gut and then inflate his hand via gear thrid… and it's not a pretty picture. Not that Luffy would likely do this—cuz he is you know Luffy. Now we take the DARK DOCTOR and think about how broken his powers could be when added with his innate medical knowledge and possibly genius intellect and things get really scary.
I may include other DF users in an attempt to reach a thousand (read: if I get bored enough or particularly inspired). If you are interested in that or someone in particular, let me know and I will put my mind on it.
Originally this was going to be apart of And Other Insects…and decided the tone was not a good fit at all. In this we see the very dark parts of Law (and anyone else I include) that gave him his petty nasty reputation. Because cutting people apart and putting them back together can't be the only reason Law is considered terrifying. The fact that he can reassemble people makes that power alarming, but not worthy of the pure abstract horror that is associated with Law.
1) Give them a Hand…
Interesting. Law thought watching the rival pirate captain freeze in place with a decidedly ill look on his rapidly paling face.
It was the first time Law had seen the reaction in person though he knew intimately what it felt like first hand. It was incredibly unpleasant and one he did everything in his power to avoid, though in this case it was terribly amusing.
It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt…it if is not you it's hilarious. Law recalled a teacher from his distant childhood commenting. How true.
"How?" The Staff Staff user croaked out barely conscious.
Relaxing for the first time since the fight had begun Law sheathed his sword in a somewhat complicated action before resting it in the crook of his right arm. He then reached up to his left shoulder with his freed hand. Calmly he used the combination of his Op Op powers still active and a precise twist of his wrist to pop his shoulder back into its socket. If he had been a normal person, read hadn't eaten a devil fruit that allowed him to control objects in space, this wouldn't have been possible to do unassisted. Without the fruit, it wouldn't have mattered that the ligaments in that same shoulder were already weakened from repeated dislocation and abuse when he had been still growing.
Thank you so very much Vergo. Law thought with a sneer while flexing his left elbow and fingers experimentally to check for range of movement.
The fight had been rather one-sided to the casual observer with the Staff Staff user having the advantage of experience over Law. That is, until Law had managed to lop off one of the man's hands and lower arm. The other pirate had ignored the wound as it hadn't even hurt and even gone so far to mock Law's so called useless cutting ability. After all what use was there in being able to slice someone up without harming them?
Trevor Herman had even gone the extra mile and called Law a softhearted fool that was more a doctor than a pirate.
The joke was on him however, as he lost his footing and dropped to his knee's before Law.
It would appear that even a submerged limb is enough to paralyze a user. And it works even when not connected to their body. Law thought thinking of the hand he had shambled into the ocean only moments before in half desperation and half experimentation.
Law was covered in bruises from the numerous staffs that he had been forced to contend with but gave no evidence that he was in pain from the assault. The throbbing in his right cheek hinted at a cracked zyomatic, it would likely be painful to chew for a while, but not as bad if he had gotten hit in the jaw proper. He had been thrashed much worse than this paltry beating in the past. He dismissed his room with a thought, feeling the chaotic energy dissipate and settle back into his body.
He drew his nodachi with his right hand ignoring the twinge from his left arm now holding the sheath, and smoothly stabbed it through the downed mans chest, easily going through the mains sternum and muscle like it was butter. Law still marveled at how easy it was to cut things even outside of his room's, how bones slid against the metal of his blade with a nearly musical hum as they ground together. Trevor's eyes blew wide in shock.
Law took a step backward and with a single wrench pulled his blade from the corpse. The hum of bone on steel intensified sounding now like a laugh. He quickly twisted his wrist, flicking the blood off the tip of the blade splattering the deck with crimson splashes that resembled macabre flower blooms.
"Law-sencho?" Penguin asked from Laws right.
Law's eyes flickered to his crew where they had already taken care of the rest of Trevor's men.
"Take him below and get him prepped." Law ordered then as a near afterthought, "also get ice prepared."
With a prompt and somewhat shaky salute the man complied.
"Y-yes Sencho!"
Eyes back to the body Law felt a smirk settle on his lips.
It would be a terrible oversight to let this opportunity go to waste. Law turned to see to any pressing injuries among his crew. After all, never know when you will need a new liver.
We know that complete paralysis happens at about knee height for sure and power loss as soon as anything is submerged for DF users. I think this and reactions to Seastone may vary from person to person like an allergic reaction. Think about it, knee height varies from person to person, so it's likely a percentage of a body mass submerged rather than a set mass. We also know that Law's powers don't negate body parts affecting the rest of the body even in this case thanks to Punk Hazard.
If nothing else, this is another reason that Law's power is quite broken. If he manages to hit a DF user and lope off something significant just once and submerge that body part, they are effectively screwed no matter how powerful they are.
I made up the other pirate and their DF power. Completely non-cannon and I checked to make sure I didn't use one in existence yet. All it allows is the ability to make body parts into staffs similar to Belemy's spring power.
