One Piece

The Demon of Carmallo Island

Chapter 6: Intense Battle! Koma's Power Revealed!

The Straw Hats looked in horror at the young count. What was going on!? Just what the hell was he! But despite all the shock and fear going through their heads, only one thing was on their captain's mind.

"Awesome, he can fly!" Luffy said with stars in his eyes, "You wanna join my crew Count!?"

"Luffy, he's trying to take over the world and kill us!" Usopp yelled.

"But he can fly! How cool is that!?"

"Focus you moron!" Sanji yelled, "I swear, you're about as stupid as Zoro is ugly. Right Nami-san?"

But Nami wasn't with them.

"Nami-san?"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Looking for this?" the Count asked. Koma had his tail wrapped around Nami with the arrow point against her neck.

"Let me go you little twerp!" the navigator demanded.

"Hang on Nami-san!" Sanji said as he jumped after Koma.

"Asmodeus!"

Aster fired a small, sun-like orb from his hand at Sanji.

"You think that puny little fireball's gonna scare me!?" he said as he prepared to kick it.

"Mr. Cook wait…!" Robin tried to warn.

"Collier Shoot!"

But it was too late, Sanji struck the ball hard with the heel of his foot with the intent to send to the ground; but instead, the fireball exploded and sent him crashing to the floor.

"Ow!" Sanji said as he rubbed his head.

"You okay Mr. Cook?" Robin asked.

"I am now Robin-chan!" Sanji said all heart-eyed.

"Aster, just what the hell are you!?" Nami asked, horrified at what she was seeing.

"I'm just a nice, innocent, little boy." Aster said, "With the power of the Demon Demon Fruit!"

"He ate a Devil Fruit!?" Luffy asked.

"Of course I did you dunce! Have you ever seen a guy with a tail and bat wings before!? I don't think so!"

"Sure-Killing Exploding Star!" Usopp called out as he fired one his exploding stars at the Count. But right before it hit, Aster used some form of psychic power to stop it in mid-air.

"How cute, a tiny ball of gunpowder." Aster said, "T'would insult me were it not so funny."

Aster then proceeded to launch the projectile back at the crew, scattering them all across the room.

"This is fun, but I think now would be a good time to put my evil plan into action."

With that, Aster turned his attention to Nami, made tail pulled back a little bit…

"Avaritia!"

…and stabbed Nami in the neck with the tip of his tail.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" the helpless girl screamed in pain, much to Sanji's horror.

"Nami-san!" the cook cried.

"You want her? Go get her!" Aster said as he through the unconscious navigator to the ground.

"Nami-san, I'll catch you!" Sanji said as he dived toward Nami, catching her just before she hit the floor, "Gotcha!"

"Well aren't you a nice guy?"

Sanji's chivalry proved to be costly. While he was occupied with catching Nami, Aster snuck behind him and tail-stabbed him in the back.

"Luxuria!"

"Saaaaaaanjiiiiiii!" Luffy cried as the cook fell to the ground.

"Two down." Aster said.

"Uhoh, we're next." Usopp said, his knees shaking uncontrollably.

"You bastard, what did you do to them!?" Zoro yelled.

"If you're wondering if I killed them I didn't."

"Well if you aren't going to kill us then what are you gonna do?" Usopp asked.

"Who cares what he's gonna do," Luffy said, "he hurt Nami and Sanji, now we're gonna kick his ass!"

"Finally, we're on the same page!" Zoro said as he unsheathed his sword.

"Robin!" Luffy said.

"I know." the scholar replied as she crossed her arms, "Cuatro Fleur…"

Suddenly, four arms sprouted on Aster's torso, two on each side.

"What the hell?" he said.

"…Break!"

The arms grabbed both his arms and proceeded to bend them in all the wrong ways, forcing him to the ground.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Aster screamed.

"Ready to surrender yet "Milord"?" Robin calmly asked.

"Bite me you old bag!" the count defiantly yelled.

"You certainly have a bad attitude."

"And you've got a lot of pent-up anger," Aster said as he readied his tail, "maybe I should help you release it!"

Fury in his eyes, Aster stabbed the back of one of Robin's extra hands, and thanks to her Devil Fruit's special weakness, her actual hands felt the attack too.

"Ira!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Robin screamed as she too passed out, the arms she sprouted fading.

"Ohno, Robin!" Chopper yelled, "Is there a doctor in the castle!? Oh wait I'm the doctor!"

"Geez," Aster said as his broken arms instantly healed and popped back in place, "for a scrawny grandma she can do some damage."

"Ushi Bari!"

While Aster was healing, Zoro had been running toward him with his swords out held out like bull horns.

"Mammon!" Aster called, and the swords he summoned earlier instantly appeared in front of him and countered Zoro's attack. But it didn't help much as the swordsman kept hacking at him.

"Damn, you're good!" Aster said.

"Don't act so surprised kid," Zoro said, "I've only lost to one person, and that was Hawkeye Mihawk!"

"You must be very proud." Aster said, a smug look on his face.

"What's with the smile?"

"Look at your little friend!" Aster said pointing behind him. During the fight, Aster extended his tail toward Chopper with the intent to stab him.

"Damn!" Zoro said as he ran to the reindeer's aid.

"Ohno, he's gonna get me!"

But before the tail could even touch Chopper, Zoro shoved him out of the way and took a blow to the chest.

"Superbia." Aster said triumphantly.

"Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" Zoro cried as he fell to the ground.

"Zoro no!" Chopper said as he ran to the swordsman's side, "I'm so sorry, it's all my fault!"

"It is indeed." Aster said as he launched his tail at Chopper's forehead.

"Invidia!"

And with that, Chopper fell to the ground, leaving only Luffy and Usopp.

"Another one bites the dust." Aster said as he dusted his hands off. But during his premature celebration, he let his guard down and was hit in the face by a…

"Gum Gum Pistol!"

…sending him into the wall, and ticking him off.

"How dare you strike me!" Aster yelled at the captain, "Nobody strikes me!"

"Tough." Luffy said as he crunched his knuckles, "You hurt my friends, I break your face!"

"Listen well and listen good Straw Hat." Aster said as he raised his hand above his head, "There are only three laws on Carmallo Island:

I say goes."

A small flame appeared in the palm of Aster's hand.

" who defies me is guilty of treason."

The flame elongated into a pole-like shape.

"And 3..."

The flame turned into a red pitchfork.

"All traitors get a hot poker shoved up their ass!"

"Uhoh." Usopp said.

"Canto Forcone!"

Aster threw the pitchfork at Usopp and Luffy like a javelin, but they dodged it and it hit the wall and burst into flames.

"That could've been us!" Usopp screamed.

"Correction," Aster said, "that should've been you!"

Usopp turned around and found Aster hovering right above him.

"Ahhhhhhh, I'm sorry Count Koma sir," Usopp said as he fell to his knees and bowed like a maniac, "I swear I'll do whatever you say just don't shove a hot poker up my ass!"

"Rise."

Usopp obeyed, only to have Aster stab him right below his right eye.

"Acedia!"

"Usopp!" Luffy cried out as his last friend was defeated.

"Wow, that was almost too easy!" Aster gloated.

"You bastard!" Luffy said as he ran toward Koma while stretching his arm back, "Gum Gum…"

"Secondo Cerchio!" Aster called out as he summoned another pitchfork. He then proceeded to twirl it like a baton, creating a heavy wind that blew Luffy off his feet and across the room.

"Pathetic," Aster said as he dematerialized his pitchfork, "if you ask me you're not even worth stabbing."

Aster prepared to walk away, but suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in the tip of his tail.

"Youch!"

Turning around, he saw that Luffy was biting it.

"And the World Government calls me immature." he said.

"Fix my friends or I'll bite it off!" Luffy said.

"Why don't you give it a rest!?" Aster said.

"Fix them now!"

"Gula!"

Finally fed up with Luffy, Count Koma stabbed in the tongue.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" the captain screamed as he joined his fallen crew.

"It's finally done," Aster said as an evil smile adorned his face, "the seven Sin Crests have found new hosts! And soon the world will be mine! Maaaaaaaaaahahahahahaaaaaa!"

In another part of the castle, Tarbley and the mystery girl from the forest watched as the Count laughed like a maniac through a crystal ball.

"Damn, he's already branded them!" she cursed.

"This wouldn't have happened if you had gotten here sooner Miss Amarië."

"Oh shut up Tarbley, arguing isn't going to get us anywhere!"

"So now what?"

"We move on to plan B."

Tarbley was horrified, he knew what plan B was, and he was hoping he could avoid it.

"You don't mean?"

"Yes," the girl said facing Tarbley, "we're going to have to kill them."

Luffy:"Owww, my tongue hurts."

Zoro:"Is everyone okay?"

Usopp:"Uhhhh Zoro, you've got something on your chest."

Zoro:"What's that thing on your face?"

Chopper:"Ahhhhhh, Robin's strangling Sanji!"

Nami:"What the hell's wrong with us!?"

Zoro:"And who's that woman!?"

Sanji:"I don't know but she's cute!"

Luffy:"On the next One Piece! "Swordfight At Castle Koma! Zoro VS Amarië!" I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!"
