Chapter 2: Shichibukai after Shichibukai
Donquixote Doflamingo was holding onto her checks tightly trying to examine the girl.
Thinking *Hmm...She manage to climb a Pacifista while disobeying a mariner's orders. Maybe she doesn't like the marine. Her defiance is similar to Law's, she's given got the same look at her eyes as his did. Maybe I'll take her to Dressrosa then Sugar would finally have someone else the same age as her.*
*She seems interesting considering that she manage to sneak into the HQ. After all, with my Shichibukai states, I can just say that I'm just sending her back but it's actually a lie...*
"PAEDOFPHILE!"
...
"what?"...The room that was filled with tension was now filled with an awkward moment.
"Huh?" Doflamingo questioned. "Hey come on now, it's rude to jump into conclusions tha-"
"I dun wanna come with you! You already have so many younger women in Desroasta (She said it wrongly) and that's what makes you more like a paedophile."
The room was filled with silence and fear as the marines were stunned that someone actually pulled on Doflamingo in the open.
"Eek! Did Beth chan actually did that?" Haruyuki screeched whispered to his friend Kirito.
"She so did! I knew that it was a bad idea to bring her here after all!"
"But having many women for himself is not illegal right?..."
A random soldier questioned but Doflamingo used Haoshoku Haki to knock out the soldiers leaving the whole area to collapse excluding the admirals.
"Doflamingo you bastard..." One of the rear admirals remarked.
But paying no attention to the mariner, he noticed that his palm was empty.
"Oh? Looks like she escaped."
Beth was panting trying to catch her breath behind the wall that has a stair pathway.
"Huff. Huff. I guess it's a good thing that old lady Yukishiro forces me to run 100 laps around the field every day. Who ever knew that the running would be useful one day. The fast flow for oxygen can even keep me warm during winter."
She calm down as she glance through the surroundings.
*Looks like he's finally gone.* She thought to herself, *That guy was dangerous, I see blood in his head. I wouldn't want to mess with him even though I already did...*
"But still, he's a Shichibukai...Darn. I should have looked more info on him...Oh well, I'll just have to find him myself."
She went up stairs and went up to the first floor. She then wandered around as there were no more flight of stairs. She walked through the hall way which seemed to be endless.
"Geh. I think I'm lost. But I can't ask for directions or I'll be forced back to North Blue. Maybe I'll hide from them while gathering info at the same time."
She soon approach the exit which led her to outside, it was the main harbour which docked the warships that have no provisions to deliver to the vault.
She glanced around and noticed an odd transporter among the marine ships. It was a yellow submarine with its back facing the shore.
Beth tried to take a closer look on it...
"It's Hawk eyes! Hawk eyes is here!" The sudden call made the poor little started which cause her to lose her balance and fell into the sea.
"Ca-can't swim!" Beth was struggling in the water as she was gargling. "Can't believe I'm saying this but...HELP!"
The marines nearby were shocked. They didn't noticed the little girl until she cried for help. They tried to rescue her but by the time they made a move, she was already recued.
She was busy spitting out water from her mouth not noticing the one who saved her.
"You should be quicker on your actions. If I just waited for you guys to do it, she would have drowned by then."
The marines became silent. While Beth looked up to look at the man who saved her. She examined him but the thing she her attention was mostly focused on was his eyes.
"You're not going to thank me for saving you?"
"I suddenly don't feel like it." She replied while glaring onto his eyes.
"Mi-Mihawk," One of the Marines asked, "Is she with you?"
"No." He replied, "A little kid like you should be back at home playing truant."
"I don't have a home to return to and I don't plan to make all my efforts to get here get wasted either."
They shared a few glares for a while silently much like their having a staring contest when suddenly, she decided to speak up.
"Who's that guy with green hair begging to you?"
The marines were clueless to the conversation between the 2 of them.
"How did you know that someone begged towards me before"? Mihawk asked emotionlessly.
"Cause I'm a genius." She replied with a smirk.
Mihawk was silent for awhile until he remarked, "You're a devil fruit user aren't you?"
Beth remained silent until she said, "So says the guy who wears a magenta brand Crocodile underwear."
"Is that so amusing that you have to say it out loud?" Mihawk questioned.
She then pout her checks, as nothing she says seems to affect him.
"I don't like you..." She mumbled.
"That's fine by me." He replied as he heard her mumbling. "It does not concern me."
He walked off from his coffin shaped boat and stepped onto the shore.
"Mi-Mihawk! Where are you going? What about the child?" A mariner asked.
"She's none of my concern. It's your job as Marines to serve the people. I'm only interested in the one who is going for the Shichibukai trials."
He walked away leaving the marines around him speechless. All there is left is Beth sulking.
The marines were staring at her. "But what's a kid doing here anyway?" A marine soldier asked.
*Well this is great.* she taught to herself. *Looks like I got no choice left but to use it.*
She threw something into the ocean and suddenly a huge sea king appeared.
The marines panicked as the vibration made caused the ground and ocean to shake.
With all the commotion and panic, she manage to run away unnoticed.
"Geez," She groaned, "I wasted a sea king bait just like that. But at least I could do it quickly since this island is near the calm belt."
"Still, that hawk douche was a Shichibukai. Though I hate his guts, I manage to get more info. But I still don't understand why I can't see through his eyes..."
"The Shichibukai room is on the 7th floor, now that sucks, I have to climb up all the way there."
30 minutes later, she's finally at the 7th floor. She hold onto her knees as she finally manage to reach the Shichibukai meeting room.
"Finally...It should be alright since not many people go inside this room..."
She open the door with all her remaining strength. As she succeed, she collapsed on the floor. She wanted to rest a bit more until a snake suddenly appeared right in front of her face. She blinked hard but she did not screamed as she was just startled.
"Salome, come back."
The snake obeyed the order and crawl towards a tall woman figure.
Beth got up on her knees and observe the lady. She was wearing her usual Kuja outfit with the marine cape behind.
"You're not the one I'm looking for." Beth remarked.
"Well I'm sorry that I'm not the one you're looking for." She replied, "I'm the only one here so I'm afraid that what you're searching for isn't here."
"Hancock sama ~" The door opened as the waiter brought the food into the room. "Here's our menu special for you pirate empress~"
"Hmm?" Hancok glanced at the meal and the cranberry juice in a wine cup with a straw and flower decorations on it with a mini umbrella. "But I didn't order anything."
"Oh no," The waiter replied, "It's our specialty for free Hancok sama~"
"Well thanks, but no thanks. I'm on a diet."
"Well ok then."
The 2 adults turned around and saw the little girl already helping herself to the food.
"Oi!" Hancock hissed, "Who said that you could eat it?"
Beth ignored her, she was too busy stuffing the food into her mouth to pay attention to her.
"You, waiter." She stood up and point her fork to the waiter. "What is this? It's delious."
"It's French fries little girl and uh, I'm glad you like it?"
"It tastes like baked potato, my favorite...Me like French fries make more for me."
"Oi!" Hancock hissed, "Don't ignore me you rude disgraceful little girl!"
"Speak for yourself lady," Beth replied, "you're not even wearing panties..."
The waiter and some marines hiding behind the door were shock out of admiration.
"H-How. HOW DARE YOU! Mero Mero Mellow!"
She manage to turn all the marines into stone but it did not affect the little 'brat' at all.
Hancock blinked hard and questioned, "Why won't you turn into stone? Is it because you're not fazed by my beauty like Luffy?"
"Luffy?" She thought for a while then gave an evil smile, "Ohhh, I get it. You like that guy don't you~?"
Hancock was shocked, this is much worse to her that someone else much worse than the marines finding out about her crush.
"But too bad he doesn't like you~."
"I-I have you know that he's going to propose to me soon!"
"How we he hasn't even kissed you?"
"GASP!" Lightning could be heard in Hancock's back ground. "How did you even know that?"
*I like this lady, she's fun to troll.* Beth smirked, "Because I-AM-A-GENIUS!" She even manage to imitated her extremely looking down pose.
"HOW DARE YOU! THAT'S MY POSE YOUR TAINTING!"
"Is that so?" Beth smirked, "Your already tainting your mind filled with imaginary thoughts which will never happen. But wait a minute, you're both more than 10 years apart. Which means, you're a sick pedophile old hag."
Hancock's face quickly became bright red. Then she screeched like Gozila, but Beth ran outside the room, laughing her heart out.
She then went around the corridor on the 7th floor looking at her surroundings making sure she's on the right track.
From what I got from Hancock, he should be in the trials being judged by the high ranking admirals.
She came across a giant marble door with wave patterns on it. She knew that opening the door would draw unwanted attention so she stood back and stared hard at the door.
She saw through the door and inside the room. She saw 2 unnamed vice admirals, Sengoku and Kizaru all were seated down on high chairs with tall wooden table boxes . And the one she was searching for was in the centre of the room standing in front of the judges.
She could see them but she couldn't hear them. The thick door was to shut all sound from being heard from the room.
There is a way to get pass that, but she has to be completely concentrated to be able to do that.
She breathed in and breathed out. She knew she could do this, she just needs to find a right target. The one with yellow sunglasses looks like he's in a daze so she decided to use him as target.
Horus!
Her conscience is now in that man's. So long as her body does not move or does that man noticed that he's being watch, she could hear his thoughts of exactly what's going on around him and his mind.
"Since Akainu is away and is not here to judge," Sengoku said to the people around him, "I'll be the one who does the results."
"We are running short of capable pirates for the position of Shichibukai, Law though has assisted Straw Hat Luffy to escape, but with his powers that is capable of hunting down notorious pirates, we are willing to overlook it provided by the World Government."
Sengoku sighed than continued to finish reading the letter, "Law is hereby granted the title of Shichibukai!"
Law could only smile to himself but Beth using Kizaru's eyes could not see his face.
"Well, since the trial is over," Kizaru got up and stared at the door, "It's time to get rid of the insect spying on us."
*Crap!* Beth's conscience returned to her body, *I've been spotted...*
Kizaru was making his move fast by doing a sift kick, shooting a light beam towards the door...
It looks a bit draggy but I promise the moment you've been waiting for is in the next chapter. I'll also tell you what Beth's devil fruit power in full detail is as it seems a bit too good.
Crocodile is a real underwear brand for grown man. I got that idea from laundry duty.
I not good at being a sadist so I can't think much of the taunts except for Hancok's who I enjoyed making fun of while typing. X)
I'll also list down Beth's profile in the next chapter and Thanks for reading :)
