Chapter 19: The Power of Wrath


- Totto Land, New World -

Currently in Totto Land, Big Mom has gathered all of her children once again to her Chateau on Whole Cake Island. The reason being Tamago found something in Luffy's file that proved to be interesting. So in response, the Yonko herself decided to humor the man and see if he was truthful in the statement he made. So now, Smoothie was walking through the halls of the Chateau to her mother's throne room while looking at a few more pictures of Luffy that Tamago had found for her. Seeing her child always brought a smile to Smoothie's face. So she took the liberty of framing the pictures she got.

So now as Smoothie was making her way to the throne room, her sister Cinnamon caught up to her to see what she was looking at and smiled as she spoke.

"More pictures of Luffy?" asks Cinnamon with a smile.

"Yes. Though, I've been taking the liberty of framing them. I want to make sure I can get and keep as many." says Smoothie with a smile.

"I see." says Cinnamon with a smile as she spoke again. "So, Tamago said that this meeting is about Luffy. So what do you think he's found?" asks Cinnamon curious herself on the subject of her nephew.

"I don't know, Mama said that only Tamago knew for the moment. So whatever he found, it should be interesting." says Smoothie as she puts the photos away.

"Right." says Cinnamon as they continue walking.


- Throne Room -

After walking for a couple of minutes, Smoothie and Cinnamon arrived at the throne room and went to take their seats. Cinnamon sat next to Smoothie, who sat next to Katakuri as everyone was making their way in to take their seats. While waiting, the rest of the siblings talked amongst themselves on things concerning Totto Land as a whole, as Tamago came walking in with Chess Soldiers behind him.

Tamago held a Cameko in his hand, which is a younger Visual Den Den Mushi that is able to store images and videos. So behind him, the Chess Soldiers were pushing in a Proko, which was an older Visual Den Den Mushi that's able to receive, project and broadcast what the Cameko sees onto a bigger video screen. So with this being seen by Big Mom, she decided to speak.

"Tamago, what is the meaning of this?" asks Big Mom in a tone of order.

As Big Mom spoke, Tamago turns to the woman and speaks to answer the question while the Chess Soldiers set everything up.

"Well Mama, the information I found that involves Luffy is on this Cameko. Information, you all should see." says Tamago answering the question while holding it in his hand.

These words spoken by Tamago, had piqued Big Mom's interest along with her family present as Katakuri decided to ask a question of his own on everyone's minds now.

"What is it that's exactly on this Cameko that you want us to see?" asks Katakuri, curious like everyone else present while wanting to get to the point.

"It involves a battle that took place in the New World involving the Marines and a few World Government agents against Luffy." says Tamago now getting their attention as he continued. "From the dates on the file that came along with the Cameko, this battle took place 8 months prior to his first bounty when he was still 16." says Tamago as he continues while walking to the Proko. "Now all the information will be shown on the video screen. And with Lady Pudding's help due to her Devil Fruit, we'll be able to hear their thoughts during the video feed." says Tamago informing them of this.

With Tamago finishing up here, he went to set up the Cameko for the video feed to play on the Proko. Everyone present started talking amongst themselves again while waiting. So while Tamago was getting that done, Cinnamon spoke to Smoothie now.

"Well Smoothie I gotta say, Luffy continues to become more interesting the more we find out about him." says Cinnamon with a smile looking at her.

Smoothie for her part smiled back as Katakuri spoke next.

"Indeed." says Katakuri with folded arms, a bit eager himself to see this footage.

As he said this, Tamago had finished setting everything up for the video feed to play on the screen.

'Let's see where your strength lies.' thought Big Mom, who wanted to have a grasp of Luffy's strength for her own motives.

With this thought Big Mom had, the Proko started to play the video feed it got from the Cameko with the family looking on at the screen to know a bit more on their lost family member.


- Video Feed -

The video shows Luffy in a shack, who wore only white shorts and sandals with his hat as he had all of his present time tattoos. Though right now, Luffy was drinking from a bottle of wine while using crimson flames from the phoenix abilities of his Devil Fruit to heal wounds at the moment from what looked to be from a recent battle. So now, Luffy spoke to himself while grunting in a bit of pain.

"Damn it all. This is exactly what I get for biting off more than I can chew. Fighting Marines, and then having to fight my former teacher." says Luffy not liking his situation, as he stood up to walk. "Though, it wasn't a complete loss since I got what I wanted." says Luffy, as he stopped before a desk to pick up a small blue and white book with a lot of pages.


- With The Family -

As the family saw Luffy's appearance and what they so far learned, some spoke on it.

"Hmm...the tattoos are a nice touch." says Galette with a smile.

"I agree. Though, I wonder what kind of battle he faced previously to cause those injuries." says Cracker curious as he went back to watching with the others.


- Back To The Feed -

As Luffy picked up the book, he went over to the metal sliding door leading out of the shack to poke a small hole through it with his finger with the purpose of peeking outside as he leaned his head down to look.

'Out front, four. In back, two. And one at each side. Eight in all, four of which are Vice Admirals and the other four being CP9.' thought Luffy as he turned his eyes down to the book in his hand with a thought. 'Vice Admirals Momonga, Dalmatian, "Shark Cutter" Bastille, Doberman. Along with Rob Lucci, Kaku, Blueno, and Kalifa from CP9.' thought Luffy, remembering them as he looked at a page in the book he was holding.


- With The Family -

"Vice Admirals and World Government Agents, huh? Never a good thing to face, especially when it's 1 against 8." says Daifuku a bit surprised.

"Not to mention, he's weak from his previous battle and at a disadvantage in terms of power he can throw around for the moment." says Oven as he continues. "The question is, how will he get out of this?" asks Oven out loud to himself, wondering how this was going to go.


- Back To The Feed -

'Normally I'd win easily...but, right now I'm all worn out and injured from my previous battle. Not to mention, I'm still healing. This isn't going to be easy.' thought Luffy as he looked at the pages with a thought. 'I need to come up with a plan. Luckily this handbook was my goal. It's been some time since I've faced a few of them, so let's see where their strength is.' thought Luffy as he started turning pages. 'I can calculate how to proceed with my current disadvantage.' thought Luffy as he flipped through the pages to a certain one and started reading quickly.

As he Luffy read through the page quickly, he heard a few loud gunshots be fired from a pistol outside. This only made Luffy continue to read faster.

'Tch. I'm out of time.' thought Luffy, getting as much information as he could from the handbook to hear more gunshots be fired off as someone spoke out now.

"There's no point in hiding Pillar General of Wrath! We know you're in there!" says one of the Vice Admirals yelling out.

Luffy for his part decided to close the book, and made it disappear with Asura's Inventory for safe keeping along with his hat. With that done, Luffy walked over to the sliding metal door to yell out.

"Alright! I'm coming out! Hold your fire!" says Luffy as he slides open the door and walks out to continue speaking. "Listen. Don't shoot up the place." says Luffy with a serious look on his face while closing the metal door behind him.

"Aren't you a sweetheart. You giving up?" asks Kalifa amused as Luffy smiles.

"Don't be stupid. I just need somewhere to catch up on some sleep once I'm done kicking all your asses." says Luffy.

"After kicking our asses?" asks Lucci not liking the arrogance and cockyness coming from Luffy.

Momonga put a hand in front of Lucci, stopping the man. As he decided to speak.

"Don't fall for his taunting, Lucci. He's obviously in bad shape considering who he fought some time prior to this." says Momonga as he continues. "We'll take him alive and bring him back to Marineford, we'll get him to tell us what he's planning and give up all of his fellow generals." says Momonga finishing up.

"Typical Marine playbook. Very kind of you to capture me instead of going for the kill." says Luffy, not impressed as Momonga spoke again.

"Oh you won't get off easy. You'll have to pay." says Momonga, making Luffy raise an eyebrow.

"Which means for your past actions, we're going to make you regret ever calling yourself a Marine or a Cipher Pol Agent." says Dalmatian being serious on that as he cracked his knuckles.

When this was said by the two vice admirals, Luffy's whole demeanor changed from cocky to full on serious as he spoke.

"You've got it backwards. You'll pay for calling yourselves Marines. Right now." says Luffy, being very serious in his statement with a cold look in his eyes.

Luffy then takes this moment to crouch a bit, and jump up high while making his enemies stand on guard now as Luffy back-flipped to be on top of the shack. Luffy raised his body up, as he took his right hand off the rooftop shack while raising his knees to fully stand up from the landing while he activated his original Devil Fruit power while taking in a breath.

'Hito-Hito: Adrenaline Rush' thought Luffy as glowing red energy started flowing through his veins and red energy started to surround him a bit from the anger he was building.

As this action happened, Luffy started to chuckle with amusement and excitement.

"Shishishi...Shishishi...Shishahahahahaha!" says Luffy as his chuckles turned into full blown low laughter that put those back on the ground on edge, as he spoke again. "Time to hunt! YOU DIPSHITS ARE GONNA REGRET EVER COMING AFTER ME!" says Luffy yelling out with anger and excitement in his voice as he let his rage come forth.

"Yeah right! Tobu Shigan" says Lucci as he fires two sharp compressed air shock waves from the finger towards Luffy with the intent to hit him.

This causes Luffy for his part to see this, and leap off the shack wildly to land on the bark of a tree. As he was hanging to it from all fours while looking at Lucci with a glint of death in his eyes as he spoke.

"I don't think so." says Luffy as he jumps off towards Lucci with the intent to attack him now. "You're going down first!" says Luffy as he comes in to notice something.

As Luffy came in towards Lucci for his attack, he noticed a spiked whip coming towards him. So upon seeing it, Luffy decided to maneuver his body for the whip to go in between his legs and dodge the attack in mid air. So after he did dodge the attack, Luffy went to maneuver his body again in a back-flip and land to the ground facing his enemies while shocking some of them only to notice the attack did get him by scratching his cheek a bit with a small bit of blood dripping down.

'He twisted his body in midair to dodge?! He's good...' thought Kalifa shocked while seeing it and while noticing this was not good because it meant to her that Luffy had grown with time.

Once Luffy landed, he had a thought of his own.

'That was pretty close. The way they're coming at me, it doesn't seem like they want to take me alive.' thought Luffy seeing this action, as flames went to heal the cut on his face fully.

So with this thought Luffy looked on waiting, his eyes once again turned a beautiful red with a gold ring that matched the color of the sun at the middle of the irises indicating his Observation Haki was blaring.

'Above.' thought Luffy as he calmly and quickly dodged fourteen shots of Tobu Shigan from Blueno who was using the powers of the Doa Doa no Mi to make a door above Luffy.

As Luffy dodged the fourteen shots from above, he jumped out of Blueno's attacking range while shocking the man and all those present.

"How in the hell did he know I was going to attack from above?" asks Blueno shocked by this.

"Be careful, he might know everybody's current strengths!" says Momonga seeing Luffy might

'Good thing I read that book beforehand to get a grasp of their current strength. I can see into the future using Observation Haki, but even that's limited for the moment. Considering I haven't had time to heal fully, I'll have to buy myself some time.' thought Luffy as he stood waiting in a stance.


- With The Family -

"Not many people in the world have the perfect body control like that to twist their body in the way he did. Just goes to show how much flexibility he has." says Brulee, impressed by this feat as her siblings nearby nodded.

"Yes. Takes years of practice and training just to even come close to doing something like that, and his speed in terms of dodging and avoiding the attacks is amazing." says Perospero, as he continued watching.


- Back To The Feed -

As Luffy stood there, the CP9 agents went to stand with the Vice Admirals in front of their target while taking stances of their own. They were all a bit surprised that Luffy would still fight given the disadvantage of his injured body and the strength in numbers they had along with their strength.

So Kaku, who was next to Dalmatian, decided to speak now.

"Despite the odds, he's not running or backing down. Has he really become a fool with time or is he just too prideful to run?" asks Kaku observing this.

"No Kaku. Remember, his growth rate in terms of mind and strength. He has grown tremendously proven by his position in the Red-Hair Pirates." says Dalmatian as he continued. "You should know not to underestimate him, given the fact you were present alongside your colleagues during the incident in Mariejois." says Dalmatian reminding the agent.

"Yes, we'll keep that in mind." says Kalifa with clear irritation in her voice, as she sent out her spiked whip again for an attack.

As the attack came full force at Luffy, he dodged to the side only for Doberman to land in front of him and make a downwards slash at Luffy while he descended causing the pirate to step back quickly. As this action was performed, Bastille came in from behind with a striking motion of his sword ready to hit Luffy, who spun in a dodge that avoided the Vice Admirals attack and retaliated with a punch of his own.

With this action about to take place, Luffy was grazed on his left leg by another Tobu Shigan Attack courtesy of Blueno. This stopped Luffy from attacking the Vice Admiral, as the graze wound was deep enough to draw blood. So once again, Luffy had to go on the defensive as he turned again for something coming at him at great speed.

"Soru" says Dalmatian as he disappeared from sight in a great amount of speed towards Luffy for his attack. "Shigan" says Dalmatian aiming to hit Luffy.

Dalmatian came in with attack at the ready, only for Luffy to dodge this finger pistol attack from Dalmatian at the last minute and receive a small cut on his right arm that drew a few drops of blood considering the attack originally was aimed at his abdomen. So Luffy at this point turned to run, and maneuver himself a bit only to have his path blocked by Kaku as Kalifa's whip came in again.

"Ibara Road" says Kalifa, as she leaps in the air and thrusts her whip out with the purpose of decimating Luffy.

This attack came at Luffy, forcing him to dodge as it only managed to cut his side a bit while making him wince in pain as Lucci came in with his own attack now in order to keep up the pressure.

"Rokuogan" says Lucci as he places both his fists right in front of Luffy to focus his physical strength to launch a devastating shock wave in his general direction.

Once the attack was fired off by Lucci, Luffy braced his right side body muscles and also covered the right side of his body in Armament Haki. As he put his arms up to block in order to avoid a lot of the damage that would have been done. As the shock wave came in full force, it hit Luffy dead on and pushed him back some. He was still on his feet but however with his arms crossed now, defensively. The reason why was because Kalifa's whip came in for another time to cut Luffy's forearm, making him drop this defense to then send the whip back to herself.

"Those skills. He was the Marines and Cipher Pol's most elite soldier." says Kalifa seeing that Luffy was taking damage but was keeping it to the lowest, as he used his speed to his advantage.

"And he's no fool. His senses are frighteningly sharp." says Bastille observing their opponent, as Luffy stood up fully from his stance.

As Luffy kept receiving these attacks, he was analyzing their attack patterns. Looking for an opening in their strategy.

'Damn...Lucci really used that technique. Which means they really want to finish this and capture me.' thought Luffy as he continued with another thought. 'At middle distance, Bastille and Kalifa launch a ceaseless barrage of attacks.' thought Luffy as he dodged Kalifa's spiked whip once again.

When he did this, Bastille rushed in at the same time only to hit his large sword on the ground as Luffy moved out of the way quickly. Only for Lucci to fire off Tobu Shigan in the direction of Luffy, who used the speed from dodging to jump up and flip forward in a dodge to this attack coming towards him with the purpose of hitting his stomach. As the shot from the finger pistol hit the tree on Luffy's left side, the front flip he performed made him land laying on his back so Blueno made an air door above Luffy to fire off Tobu Shigan fourteen times.

This made Luffy roll out of the way to his right, as he pushed off the ground and did a roll in mid air away from the finger pistol shots, only to jump to his feet and back-flip out of the way of the last few shots as he landed to the ground on all fours while breathing a bit as his Devil Fruit was trying to heal the wounds with the current situation of his body.

"Got him. Two hits to the right forearm." says Blueno calmly as they saw crimson flames doing their best to heal the wounds on his forearm but slowly.

'But if I back off too far, I'm in Lucci and Blueno's range of fire. With Momonga and the other Vice Admirals on clean up.' thought Luffy as he glanced at Kaku. 'So what's Kaku been doing here all this time?' thought Luffy as he came to an answer of his own.


- With The Family -

"He figured out their plan of attack just by defending and swiftly avoiding the attacks. Damn he's good." says Montd'Or seeing the great strategic skills Luffy had.

"Insanely good." says Custard, nodding at her brother's word while seeing it herself.

"Well it's to be expected. From what I've seen so far and from past experience, Luffy's no fool when it comes to fighting as he seems to quickly adapt under pressure or against harsh odds in a fight." says Katakuri observing this.

"His reputation speaks for itself really. Luffy knows he can't use his Devil Fruit and Haki that much right now, so he's waiting for the right moment to strike out." says Smoothie observing her son's actions, as she continued to watch as her siblings nodded at the words.


- Back To The Feed -

Momonga saw this action from Luffy and decided to yell out to the Cipher Pol Agent.

"Kaku! Stand ready!" says Momonga warning the man upon seeing this.

"Right!" says Kaku while taking his stance, getting ready to fight.

'He's here as support. Probably making sure I can't get away. That explains why he's keeping his distance from me. In that case...' thought Luffy as he looked at his new target with a grin and sped off towards him. "You're gonna be my meat shield!" says Luffy yelling out as he rushes forward.

So now, as Luffy rushed forward with his right hand going to grab Kaku's face, the man became a bit shocked as his expression said it all. This action alone from Luffy, made Kaku decide to jump back, and up into the air away from Luffy in order to avoid being grabbed.

"Get back here!" says Luffy yelling, still intent on grabbing his target.

As Luffy took a step forward, another finger pistol shot went to hit near his left foot for him to turn and see it was Lucci.

'Damn. I can't let my guard down for a second. They're relentless.' thought Luffy as he was punched on the right side of his face courtesy of Kaku.

This got Luffy to turn his attention to Kaku and send a right handed punch at his face, only for Kaku to dodge it as Luffy then sent a left handed punch aimed at the same area for which Kaku dodged again. This got Luffy to send a backhanded punch at the man, as he dodged to leap back and stand with his arms up ready to fight as this irritated Luffy a bit as he spoke.

"Little shit." says Luffy with irritation present in his voice now.

"Just in case you were wondering, it's my job to chase you down if you try to run." says Kaku.

"You don't say?" asks Luffy, being sarcastic while not being impressed at all, as he breathes in air.

"Stop acting cocky. Your wounded from your previous battle, your energy and Haki hasn't even recovered yet. You won't hold out much longer due to overexerting yourself." says Kaku as he continues. "That's why the fighting will be held up to the others." says Kaku as Doberman and Bastille stood in front of him.

Luffy noticed that when this happened, he was surrounded on all sides. He didn't have to take a stance yet as he calmly looked on while standing up fully with a thought.

'They got me surrounded and I don't have the energy necessary to break through them. And with the shape I'm in, there's no way I can hope to avoid all their attacks, swords, and other weapons.' thought Luffy observing his great disadvantage.

"This will be your last to surrender, Monkey D. Luffy. So take it." says Momonga as he raises his sword to point at Luffy. "Not how you saw this ending, is it?" asks Momonga.

As this was said by Momonga, Luffy calmed his breathing now after a moment to look at the Vice Admiral for a moment before he started to chuckle a bit at what was said.

"Shishishi...well this is honestly really interesting to me. Never have I seen a bunch of people so proud in the face of someone more powerful than themselves." says Luffy, having a grin on his face.

"You must really underestimate those before you. Everyone assembled here was hand picked for the purpose of hunting your ass down and bringing you in. Dead or Alive." says Lucci with a glare and a deadly tone in his voice.

"Hand picked, huh? Shishishi. I'm sure you're proud of this little squad but I call bullshit." says Luffy with an arrogant grin as he continued. "I'm not even seeing one person here, who's capable of fighting on par with me. Doesn't Sengoku understand how dangerous I am? Or better yet how dangerous the other pillar generals are?" asks Luffy as he continues further. "These Marines and their Absolute Justice are nothing but a joke, if they think a few Vice Admirals and government agents can actually fight us." says Luffy, still holding the grin on his face, as Momonga spoke now.

"Then you know nothing." says Momonga in a low tone.

"Huh?" asks Luffy with a confused expression as he had a raised eyebrow.

"The duty of the Marines is to maintain law and order throughout the world and impose the will and might of the World Government. We are therefore considered the key strategic development force in the eyes of the World Government and are expected to obey it's orders at will." says Momonga as he continued with a narrowed glare in his eyes. "We may not be powerhouses like the Admirals, but these people here before you are willing to destroy your existence if it keeps the oceans calm for a little while longer." says Momonga, determined to do just that as he continued further. "You manage to stir up the hornet's nest enough with your actions in Mariejois, and cause a small war against the World Government and Marines. So that makes you the perfect target in proving not only my point but the point behind everything I just said." says Momonga, finishing up.

Luffy looked on a bit surprised with a serious expression on his face, as he breathed out while leaning his head down a bit to speak with his eyes closed and accompanying this was a satisfied look on his face.

"Hmph. That explains why the Marines have gotten nowhere with the Yonko in the New World along with the lack of potential candidates to replace Sengoku. All of you are so eager to die so quickly in blindly following orders for a cause that has led to so many unspeakable crimes." says Luffy as he continued. "Any new recruits that joined up would be so let down if they knew the dark truth of what the Marines have really done to keep the so-called "Peace"." says Luffy, finishing his thoughts on Momonga's words.

As he finished saying this, Luffy noticed something about himself at this moment.

'Damn it all, I'm starting to slow down bit by bit. And My Haki along with my Devil Fruit abilities haven't recovered yet for me to use them. If I prolong this battle, I may lose.' thought Luffy with calm eyes as he came to a conclusion. 'Alright I need to finish this now.' thought Luffy as he sensed one of his opponents move for an attack.

"Rokuogan" says Lucci as he once again places both his fists right in front of Luffy to focus his physical strength to launch a devastating shock wave in his general direction.

The devastating shock wave comes at Luffy only for him to back flip over it. When he did this, Blueno opened an air door to fire off Tobu Shigan again as Kalifa came in to attack with her spiked whip. The moment Luffy was near the ground, he landed on all fours dodging the spiked whip as it was in front of his face. This made Luffy jump off all fours and do a backwards cartwheel multiple times in a dodge as the finger pistol shots came raining down. As he did this, Luffy cartwheeled back for a final time to land on his feet while sliding by just a few inches.

This made Luffy's opponents notice his slowed movements in his steps and speak upon it now.

"He's slowing down." says Dalmatian noticing the decrease in Luffy's speed.

"He won't be able to take much more of this." says Doberman.

So as this was said by the two Vice Admirals, Lucci was breathing a bit hard as he turned to Blueno to speak.

"Blueno. The minute you get your chance, use the Rokuogan on him. As I've met my limit of how many times I can use it, and using it any further would take me out of commission for this fight." says Lucci being serious.

"Understood." says Blueno with a calm expression on his face while being serious on the matter.

Once this plan of strategy was spoken between the two CP9 agents, Luffy for his part was breathing hard while in his stance waiting for what came next. He knew in his mind right now that he needed to take them all down, one by one. So now, Luffy continued to breathe heavily as he stumbled on his feet, only to have his right foot hit a nearby rock. For which, Kalifa picked up on this and decided to capitalize on it as she jumped up in the air for an attack while signaling the others.

"Now!" says Kalifa as she sends out her spiked whip.

The whip comes in only to then wrap itself around Luffy's right ankle, as Kalifa pulls on it in order for him to fall over. As it looked like Luffy was almost unconscious from overexertion, Blueno took his chance as told of him by Lucci.

"Rokuogan" says Blueno as he this time, places both his fists right in front of Luffy to focus his physical strength to launch a devastating shock wave in his general direction.

As the attack comes spiraling at Luffy to his back, something happens.

'Now!' thought Luffy, as he was ready to move.

Once Luffy had this thought, he takes his right leg that's wrapped by the spiked whip to slam it into the ground hard enough to cause cracks and send pieces up while shocking Kalifa greatly.

"What's he doing? He still has strength?" asks Kalifa shocked by this while pulling on the whip to keep him from moving.

Luffy then maneuvers his body to turn towards the attack from Blueno's attack, as he coated his arms in Armament Haki with the kanji tattoo on his left side forearm for Water glowed blue. Indicating he was using Elemental Haki as he went to respond now.

"Water Style Haki: Backhand Water Reflect Mirror" says Luffy as he backhands the attack from Blueno to create a strong mirror of water to rebound the attack in Kalifa's direction.

The attack now speeds toward Kalifa with such force that she can't move out of the way, and takes it full head on. Once the attack hits Kalifa, she loses her grip on the whip and is sent flying towards a nearby tree only to crash with such force that it knocks her unconscious.

"Kalifa!" says Kaku yelling out now upon seeing his colleague's unconscious form.


- With The Family -

With this attack from Luffy being seen, it shocked the family due to the reason that something like this was possible.

"A Haki based water attack, huh? That is very intriguing. I didn't think that was possible, let alone even a category based on it." says Katakuri, a bit shocked by this with raised eyebrows.

"Yes, apparently it's called Elemental Haki. It revolves around manifesting the basic elements of water, earth, fire, wind, and lightning along with other sub elements. It's also a type that not many use." says Tamago informing them of this.

"It seems useful, if used properly. Exactly how Luffy just used it to reflect that attack and rebound it in the direction of his opponent." says Cinnamon seeing it herself.

"Very much so. From the information I've gathered, Luffy's not only an upcoming powerhouse by himself but his Devil Fruit ability allows him to compliment his other pillar generals." says Tamago informing the family of this.

"Hmm. How interesting." says Big Mom as she continues watching.


- Back To The Feed -

'The intel Fleet Admiral Sengoku provided us was no good. His power has increased tremendously in terms of physical fighting prowess.' thought Momonga, who was sweating a bit at the scene unfolding before him.

Kalifa's whip comes crashing down from the air for Luffy to grab them. He then brings the weapon to himself quickly to turn around and use one of the many chains to block a Tobu Shigan attack from Blueno now.

"Be Careful! He has Kalifa's weapon now!" says Blueno, as he continues to fire off this attack in order to suppress Luffy from retaliation.

So as Luffy dodges the first and second shots, he switches to another form of Elemental Haki.

"Earth Style Haki: Earth Sphere" says Luffy making a large sphere of earth for cover to not be hit by the finger pistol shots. "Alright, now that my Haki and Devil Fruit power has regenerated enough for major use, it's time to go wild." says Luffy as he breathes in to activate something. 'Hito-Hito: Asura Stage One + Vajra Asura' thought Luffy as his arms were coated in a metallic substance.

As for his Asura Stage One, it's a stage only activated by cases of extreme anger at which point the spirit of Asura comes to the user's aid and gives Luffy a portion of its strength. Luffy becomes more muscular and his skin turns a light pink. In addition to standard strength and speed increase, as the user's pain receptors are dulled by 30%.

So now with this done, Luffy got on one knee to put his hand out in front of the earth sphere as he coated it in Haki as well for what came next.

"Hito-Hito: Asura's Rage Cannon" says Luffy as he sends out a straight concentrated red colored shot of rage.

When Luffy did this, it sent out a powerful and concentrated blast to the Earth Sphere in front of him. Forcing the earth sphere to be launched at Blueno, who continued firing off the same attack in Luffy's direction only to become surprised upon seeing this as he was hit hard and forced into the air while a bit of blood came from his mouth.

Kaku upon seeing this became shocked and worried as he watched.

'He's still fighting hard after all of this. Damn it, this isn't looking good.' thought Kaku seeing Luffy recover his Haki and Devil Fruit Powers to use them.

The earth sphere Luffy launched forward went to hit a nearby tree and rebound itself towards the remaining Marine Vice Admirals and CP9 Agents, as Kaku went to yell out to warn the others from being hit by it.

"Look out!" says Kaku as their attention turns to the sphere of earth.

This shout of warning causes Vice Admiral Bastille to see it and move into action now to stop it entirely, as he rushes the sphere of earth with his large sword.

"I got it!" says Bastille as he coats his large sword in Armament Haki to break the sphere of earth into pieces only to become very shocked by something he sees. "No." says Bastille in utter disbelief.

As Vice Admiral Bastille broke the sphere of earth and said this, he saw that Luffy was coming through the broken pieces. Indicating that he had sped forward to be in the grabbing range of Bastille, as he was holding his fingers in a claw-fashion with a grin on his face.

"Oh no." says Kaku in shock as he yells out now. "Bastille! Keep your distance!" says Kaku yelling out now as he saw the position Luffy's fingers were in, only for it to be too late.

"Yes." says Luffy with an angry grin, as he grabs Bastille's mask and face in the claw-like fashion of his fingers.

Luffy pressed his fingers down on the Vice Admiral's face with his fingers, it proved that this move began to start hurting Bastille as he knew his skull was getting crushed. This caused the man to yell out in pain from the crushing force in Luffy's fingers.

"AHHH!" says Bastille yelling out in extreme pain.

This got a grin from Luffy as he chuckled. Bastille for his part was trying to get himself together as he regained the grip on his large sword quickly. He then went to raise it in speed and send it down towards Luffy's neck. So now, Luffy for his part saw this and put the fingers on his right hand in a claw-fashion only to stop the blade after doing so. As the blade was six inches away from his neck.

"You...little shit!" says Bastille struggling with the words as the pain only increased under the strong grip. "AHHH!" says Bastille yelling out again in pain as Luffy chuckled.

"I really gotta thank my older brother for teaching me Ryusoken. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to finish my own style of fighting and use it on you all." says Luffy as he clenches his other hand down on the blade even harder. "After all, these claws are…" says Luffy as the Vice Admirals blade cracks in half with the grip on his skull increasing. "Wrathful in nature." says Luffy, finishing with a grin.

As this continued, Luffy broke Bastille's sword only to let go of the Vice Admiral's head and kick the man up into the air. Luffy then took the liberty of wrapping Kalifa's spike whip around the man's legs to keep them locked together as he grabbed the falling Vice Admiral. So as Bastille came flying down, Luffy grabbed the man by his belt at the waist and also by the collar to lift the man above him as Lucci came in to fire off Tobu Shigan multiple times over head after using Geppo.

The shots came raining down on Bastille making the large man yell out in more pain. Lucci for his part sucked his teeth in annoyance at this while Kaku continued to analyze from a distance while preparing to take action.

'He's figured out the damn timing, but he's still wide open and weak at the front!' thought Kaku as he threw four small rocks in his hand with lightning fast speed and precision.

The rocks came at Luffy quickly, so he decided to free his right hand and grab them all in one swift motion with a blue aura coming off his hand.

"Heh." says Luffy with a toothy grin now, as he held up the four small rocks in between his right hand fingers.

Once this happened, Doberman was at Luffy's back ready to drive his sword into him. Kaku saw this and knew what would come next. So as Doberman got close, Luffy threw the four small rocks in his hand at an even greater speed as one hit the Vice Admiral in his face, one hit the middle of his chest, and the other two hit the stomach with great force. This sent the Vice Admiral falling to the ground, now unconscious as Bastille struggled against Luffy's grip.

"Put me down!" says Bastille yelling as he was greatly struggling to get free.

"I've had enough of this! Forget capturing you alive! YOUR DEAD!" says Lucci yelling in outright fury as he rushes forward in the Hybrid Form of the Neko Neko no Mi, Model: Leopard.

As Lucci got close to while holding out his paw for a claw attack, Luffy saw this and decided to act quickly.

"Well Bastille, looks like you'll get your wish!" says Luffy yelling as he slammed the Vice Admiral into the ground by his head with his legs sticking up, as the force behind this movement of attack had sent pieces of the earth up into the air.

Lucci was shocked by this action greatly as he looked on at Luffy, who had a sadistic, angry, and crazed grin all in one. As Luffy was ready for more by locking in his sights on the Leopard Human. So from here, Lucci stopped for the moment because he knew Luffy was looking for a head on battle and didn't want to put this mission in further jeopardy of failure.

As Luffy saw this, he stood up fully with a calm eager expression as he spoke.

"Looks like I'm halfway there." says Luffy satisfied as his opponents knew what he meant.

Kalifa, Blueno along with Vice Admiral's Doberman, and Bastille all laid upon the ground unconscious due to Luffy's ferocious onslaught. As those remaining were Vice Admiral's Momonga, Dalmatian along with CP9 agents Kaku, and Rob Lucci.


- With The Family -

As the group continued to watch Luffy's ferocious assault on his attackers with shock, it became clear that he was making progress at defeating them all.


- Back To The Feed -

So now as everyone awaited for what came next, Dalmatian decided to speak to Momonga about something.

"Momonga, he might take us all down at this rate. We need to forget about taking him alive." says Dalmatian, as he saw no way of capturing the Pillar General of Wrath with what was left of his group.

"Agreed. The Pillar General of Wrath has made his choice." says Momonga now seeing no other choice.

As this small conversation took place, Luffy looked on with a serious expression in his angry eyes. Though now, he had come to a decision of his own for his next action of movement. Luffy had turned his body and proceeded to run past Kaku at tremendous speed, so much that it surprised the man.

'He can still move at that speed?' thought Kaku, who was shocked as he gave chase.

Luffy then proceeded to increase his speed and take off on all fours, jumping on and across tree branches, to hanging off the body of trees while making it hard for Kaku to keep up with the pirate. As Luffy continued to do this, he began using his legs to run again as Kaku's confidence in this fight was starting to drop by a bit.

'He should be completely worn out by now, but somehow he just keeps fighting and winning! It's unnatural, it definitely doesn't feel like we're fighting a human.' thought Kaku as he continued to give chase. 'More so like we're fighting something demonic.' thought Kaku, still giving chase while becoming increasingly frustrated as Luffy turned his head to yell out something.

"Hey Lucci! Fight me one on one, you spineless feline!" says Luffy yelling out.

This being said by Luffy causes Lucci to get a murderous look in his eyes and growl as veins pop out all across his face from clear anger.

"You asked for it." says Lucci now intent on hunting his prey, as Dalmation yelled out.

"Stop Lucci! He's only baiting you! He wants you to take rash action!" says Dalmatian trying to reign in the Cipher Pol agent's anger, as Momonga speaks.

"He's right, not to mention they're almost in position." says Momonga as he looks on with his sword at the ready.

As these words were said by Momonga, Luffy comes back into the area only to drive his right hand deep into the ground below him and pull out a thick tree root. As he did this, Luffy pulled on the root more for it to come out of the ground violently as the hard ground was being broken apart. The tree root proved to stretch all the way back over to the group of three and surround them while giving them no chance to act.

"What the?!" says Dalmatian, extremely confused at this.

Once this was said by the Vice Admiral, Luffy used the confusion to move in swiftly and attack as he sent a strong kick to the area under Dalmatian's chin and a hard one at that. This swift attack made on the Vice Admiral forced him to fall to the ground, now unconscious. As this happened, Luffy landed on his feet once again with a grin as he spoke.

"I honestly didn't think you'd be as dumb as they say. But then again Lucci, you were always like that. You have power but not the IQ to wield it." says Luffy as he continued with a grin.

"I will murder you." says Lucci growling out in anger until Momonga spoke now.

"Out of the way! They are all in position." says Momonga getting Luffy's full attention at this, as he continued to speak. "Now...fire!" says Momonga, yelling out while surprising his opponent.

Luffy noticed with Observation Haki that there were marines positioned in the tree line near him with Gatling guns, all aimed at his position. So as the guns sped up, they soon started opening fire at Luffy, who had decided to run with the purpose of evading the bullets firing range. So as the bullets kept coming and with Luffy running to the side, the trees near him were cut down due to the rapid shots being fired in his direction. Though now, Luffy had decided to use his current predicament to his advantage.

So as he kept running, Luffy noticed Kaku was some feet ahead watching. Though now, the man himself was a bit surprised when Luffy started moving the firing range of the bullets towards him now. The marines noticed this and had to stop firing due to seeing Kaku in the way, as Momonga yelled out again.

"Kaku! Get out the way! You're in their line of fire!" says Momonga, yelling out to the man only to be too late.

The moment Momonga said this, Luffy had begun to catch up to Kaku, who had started running away to get out of the line of fire. So naturally, Luffy was on the man's tail as he also decided to speak.

"Hey, what's the matter Kaku? We were close just a second ago. It's not nice to run away from your objective now. I'm gonna be all over you." says Luffy with a grin as he runs down Kaku.

'I can't shake him!' thought Kaku seeing there was no way of evading Luffy.

Momonga looked on with gritted teeth not liking this at all in the slightest as he spoke.

"This isn't good. With Kaku in the way they won't be able to get a shot." says Momonga now seeing their current disadvantage, as Luffy was close on Kaku's trail and didn't want his men to hit the CP9 agent.

As this was spoken by the Vice Admiral, Luffy decided to raise his fist with red energy surrounding it as he decided to unleash wild punches with precision behind every blow.

"Hito-Hito: Rage Assault" says Luffy as he covers his hands in rage and unleashes wild and unending punches at Kaku.

"Tekkai" says Kaku, as he quickly hardens his muscles to the level of iron, in order to nullify damage taken from Luffy's attack.

So now, Kaku was taking all the punches Luffy was giving him by raising his forearms in defense with this technique, so his face wouldn't be hit.

'Our formation is completely busted. And if it goes on like this, he'll be able to get away.' thought Kaku with gritted teeth.

As he had this thought, the one thing he had noticed about all of this was the red energy of Wrath surrounding Luffy's fists. It was starting to burn through the clothing surrounding his forearms and along with this, the weight behind each punch began to increase along with the increase in speed.

Kaku knew this wasn't good because the punches were starting to break through his iron body technique, as he was now taking punches to his face and was bleeding a bit, so now he decided to act and try offense against Luffy in aggravation.

"Damn it all!" says Kaku as he grabs Luffy's right fist that was coming at him. "I refuse to be a punching bag! I rather fight until the-" says Kaku in anger, as Luffy's left fist came in quickly to break the man's log nose while sending a devastating blow to the man's face that sent blood everywhere as Luffy continued his onslaught with a grin

"Yeah! That's the spirit! You've got lots of stamina, don't ya?! Then keep on fighting!" asks Luffy with a crazed look in his eyes as he kept sending punches to Kaku's face, as it already proved Luffy had beaten him but still kept going in for ferocious attacks.


- With The Family -

By the point, some who were watching got a cold chill up their spine at the overkill Luffy was dishing out on Kaku's face.

"Talk about being brutal. Damn..." says Snack, seeing this take place with wide eyes.

"Yea..." says Poire, his older sister with wide eyes of her own.

With this being said by the two siblings watching, some of the younger and weaker siblings of the family made a mental note to never get in a fist with Luffy. As this footage proved, Luffy could be brutal in terms of physical combat.


- Back To The Feed -

As this happened, Lucci near Momonga was frustrated beyond all sanity now as he spoke.

"I've had enough." says Lucci with a vein popping out on his forehead, as Momonga turned to him.

"Don't do it! He's only baiting you into a trap!" says Momonga yelling.

"So what?! The plan didn't work! I'll kill him and Kaku, if that's what it comes down to!" says Lucci yelling in outright anger as he takes Full Beast Form turning into a Leopard.

Lucci then proceeds to take off in speed after Luffy and Kaku with the intent on killing them both while not being able to see reason.

"This ends now!" says Lucci as he goes in for the kill now with his claws ready to strike.


- With The Family -

"That's not gonna end well." says Katakuri seeing this.

"Oh? And why is tha-" begins Praline, only to stop mid sentence as she comes to a conclusion as she spoke in a deadpanned voice. "Observation Haki?" asks Praline knowing how her older brother could sometimes abuse it.

"Observation Haki." says Katakuri nodding.


- Back To The Feed -

As this was said by the man, Luffy decided to stop his assault on Kaku and turn to Lucci only to avoid a left paw attack from the leopard human. With this done, Luffy responds by coating both of his hands in a blue aura only to send his right hand in for an attack at Lucci's face in the form of a closed palm attack.

The strike hits dead on Lucci's face, making blood go everywhere from his mouth as his head is thrown back a bit by the force of the blow.

"Grahh!" says Lucci, spitting out blood as his head was sent back, though he also noticed that the strike made him revert back to his Hybrid Form.

Luffy then proceeded to surround his fists in more of the blue aura, only to go in for a wild and brutal attack on Lucci.

"Fist of Flowing Water, Crushing Rock: High Tide" says Luffy as he begins his assault on Lucci.

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM

This was all that was heard, the thunderous strikes in Luffy's lightning fast punches that were sent to Lucci's abdomen while air was being pushed out from each blow. The strikes themselves were so strong that with each punch, Lucci was sent up in the air a bit while off his feets. The man spit up more blood along with now having possibly a few broken ribs a;ong with a number of other injuries. So as this continued to happen, Kaku was struggling to pick himself up to fully stand while making Luffy turn his head with the wide eyes of a predator.

So now, Luffy turns had his attention towards the man as he rushed over in speed with red energy surrounding his elbow for an attack.

"Hito-Hito: Raging Elbow" says Luffy as he rushed in to send his attack at Kaku's abdomen while making wind get kicked up from the speed of the blow.

This quick and hard blow sent Kaku flying back, only to hit a tree behind him as the impact made him spit up blood as well while putting him in more pain.

"Blagk!" says Kaku spitting up blood with wide eyes.

As this happened, Kaku was sliding down to the ground slowly with his back to the tree only to fall on his butt and fall unconscious. Lucci was no better, as he stumbled around on his feet a bit only to fall to the ground on his back, now too unconscious. All that remained so far now was Vice Admiral Momonga and the marines near him that aimed in Luffy's direction as he breathed in hard.


- With The Family -

This ferocious display of attack, shocked everyone watching even further just by how relentless Luffy was when it came to fighting an enemy.

"Damn. Just...Damn." says Raisin with wide eyes while being shocked in the process of not finding his words.

"What did he exactly use on the first guy?!" asks Cracker, yelling out in shock.

Big Mom was also intrigued by this, as it seemed loosely based off of Fishman Karate. So now, she turned to Tamago and without saying anything, the man knew the look and started speaking.

"I wasn't able to get much on this, but I was able to find out that this fighting style is indeed based loosely off of Fishman Karate. Hence the reason why it's called Fist of Flowing Water, Crushing Rock as It is composed of a series of extremely fast and powerful punches. It's also worth mentioning that the other pillars generals have their own similar hand to hand combat style in way of speaking." says Tamago explaining this other interesting detail.

"Yeah, I don't even think this can be called a fight anymore." says Broye hearing that as she continued. "Luffy's just utterly destroying them." says Broye finishing up with wide eyes, as she was shocked by the devastating blows her nephew had dished out.

"It's not just his Devil Fruit and Haki that's strong, but just the overall ferocity in the style of fighting he displays in a battle along with his strategic thinking. No wonder why he's disposing of them one by one so easily." says Amande, who was equally shocked but still managed to keep her calm voice.

"Yes, he was able to capitalize on the CP9 agent's anger by using it as a weakness to draw the man in. Hence why he was defeated along with his partner." says Katakuri, who was still calm about all of this as he continued to watch.


- Back To The Feed -

"Weak bastard...casually going in for the kill against not only your enemy but your own comrade...your pathetic...Lucci." says Luffy with anger in his voice as he was breathing in now.

"Well that takes care of the friendly fire problem considering you took out all your human shields. This ends now." says Momonga, aiming to finish this.

Luffy for his part, turned to face the Vice Admiral with his hands up ready to fight even more.

"Then bring it on. You're making me sleepy." says Luffy with a glare while getting to the point, so he can end this.

As he said this, Momonga gritted his teeth a bit but quickly decided to give the order quickly.

"Fire!" says Momonga yelling the order.

With this done, the Marines near him sped up their weapons to open fire on Luffy fully. So in response, Luffy decided to use elemental Haki in order to avoid the bullets from injuring him, as his kanji tattoo for ice glowed purple only for him to speak now.

"Ice Style Haki: Passing Frost" says Luffy as he creates ice around his hands, and begins to move them around in front of his body.

As the bullets came forward in such a fury, Luffy began to freeze each one of them as he moved his hands in quick succession with the help and use of Observation Haki to keep up. The marines kept firing until all their bullets were gone, this lasted for about six minutes. So as the gun fire died down along with smoke obscuring the area Luffy was in, Momonga and his men waited for it to clear.

Once the smoke seemed to almost be cleared up, it showed Luffy still standing with ice around his finger tips and bullets all around him that were frozen. So upon seeing this, Momonga and his subordinates were in visible shock.

"Impossible. How could he survive that?" asks one of the marines, who fired at Luffy with fear in his voice.

"Hmmm. Well I'm not gonna lie, you guys did come close to hitting a few of my hearts." says Luffy as he continued. "But...that's still not enough." says Luffy with a calm look on his face.


- With The Family -

These few words spoken by Luffy, now had everyone confused.

"Wait, why does he make it sound like he has more than one?" asks Oven greatly confused by this.

"Unless…" says Brulee trailing off, wondering about that herself.

"Evidently so. Apparently for D.'s their circulatory system is different when compared to the other races." says Tamago as he continues speaking while holding papers in his hand. "As such, in total they possess seven hearts. The removal or destruction of a single heart does not incur death, although it is painful. As it also takes time for them to grow back as well, but destroying all of their hearts in a short amount of time, regardless of their strength, will in fact kill them." says Tamago explaining this fully.

'Which means their tough bastards to kill.' thought Big Mom hearing this information.

This information cleared the confusion on the matter. As some of the siblings spoke amongst themselves on this information, Smoothie had a thought of her own on the matter.

'I wonder why Dragon never told me this information.' thought Smoothie a bit shocked herself at hearing this. 'Most likely because of Mama. He never did like her or some of my siblings. Though If I remember correctly, he only seemed to care about me…' thought Smoothie now reminiscing a bit on those good memories.

As Smoothie did this, Cinnamon turned to her sister and saw the look. So Cinnamon decided to put a hand on Smoothie's for which she got her attention as she now went to whisper so only they could hear what she was gonna say.

"Stay in the present sister. Stay here in the now for Luffy, and not in the past." says Cinnamon with a small smile, which causes Smoothie to nod.

For Cinnamon, she knew it wasn't good for her sister to dwell on the past. Smoothie knew that too, but for her it was kinda hard not to think about those good times leading up to Dragon's abrupt departure in the way he did so. So upon hearing this, she nodded while taking the advice to heart as she went back to continue watching.

As Luffy said this, a wave of energy overcame the marines present with Momonga that made them foam at the mouth while losing consciousness and falling to the ground. It also cracked the ground a bit around Luffy's feet and splintered some trees. Momonga knew that this was Conqueror's Haki, as he was now the only one left standing.

Now, both Luffy and Momonga stood in place, as Luffy was the first to speak and ask a question of his own.

"Well Momonga, considering now that it's just you and me that's still standing tall. Tell me, are the Marines only hunting after myself or are they hunting after the other Pillar Generals?" asked Luffy, being calm about it.

"I think you already know the answer to that. The Marines and World Government have made it their top priority in seeing you dead or captured along with your colleagues. We only got lucky today because you were injured from your previous battle hours ago." says Momonga with narrowed eyes.

"Hahahaha! I guess you regret it now, huh? Today just proved that you and CP9 aren't ready to face me." says Luffy, being arrogant while making Momonga grit his teeth, as he continued. "Not how you saw this ending, is it?" asks Luffy, mocking Momonga with his earlier words.

"..." Momonga was silent at this, as he looked on.

"If we're being honest, you should have called in someone like an Admiral or at least a capable Warlord. If even one of them had joined you in this battle, things might have turned out differently." says Luffy, as Momonga was gritting his teeth in full outright anger at this.

"Shut your mouth. I refuse to have you bad mouth the Marines. And I refuse to be looked down upon by a brat like you!" says Momonga as he readied his sword with Luffy looking on calmly.

It was at this point that Momonga decided to rush forward in speed towards Luffy, as the pirate himself continued to look on calmly as he spoke.

"Jeez, you Marines have issues. Especially when you lose." says Luffy as he continues. "Now...begone!" says Luffy yelling as he sends a punch to the area right in front of him.

When Luffy did this, Momonga blurred into vision as the punch hit him dead center in the face while shocking him. The power behind this sent the man up into the air a bit, only to land on his back and slide across the ground only to come to a stop now, unconscious. As the battle was officially over.

"Such a waste of resources." says Luffy as he looked on at the unconscious forms of his opponents and then went to look at himself. "Well, I'm fully healed now. Time to leave." says Luffy, observing that he had no injuries now while raising his hand up to the sky.

As Luffy did this, black lightning started sparking in his hand as the red energy of his rage came forth as well. The sky surrounding the island had begun to darken entirely, as a pillar of lightning came down from the sky to strike him. The lightning went to merge with his body as he spoke out.

"Empyrean Transit" says Luffy speaking out.

The moment Luffy had said these words, the lightning went to return to the sky fully in a flash while taking Luffy with it. As it did this, the darkened skies above showed lightning traveling through the dark clouds with small sounds of thunder. Proving Luffy had used lightning to leave the island entirely.


- End Video Feed -

With the footage now over, Tamago decided to speak out.

"That's the entire footage. After that the reports say he escaped entirely and disappeared, only to reappear in his first bounty." says Tamago.

As he said this, the family talked amongst themselves now as Katakuri decided to say something out loud on the matter.

"Well, this was both informative and interesting to see. That's for sure." says Katakuri with his arms folded.

"Definitely earned his bounty and more, that's for sure." says Citron with a small smile.

"Yes Indeed." says Big Mom satisfied that she had a grasp of Luffy's strength at the moment, and in her mind knew he had more than what was shown.

Once this was said by Big Mom, another subordinate came into the throne room and made a beeline straight for Tamago. Once the subordinate got close to Tamago, they went to whisper something in his ear as he nodded and became shocked all the same as his expression gave it all away. So now, Big Mom narrowed her eyes and spoke.

"Speak Tamago. What news did you just learn? Considering it seems serious enough to shock you." says Big Mom noticing the change in Tamago's expression while demanding an answer from her subordinate.

As she said this, Tamago turned to fully face her now.

"Well I don't know how to exactly say this, so I'll be short and frank as it just happened a couple of minutes ago." says Tamago.

This being said by Tamago got everyone in the room to fall silent now and listen to the news the man had just learned of.


Done!, good, bad, don't like it that's on you. So yea, I know I wasn't able to show much of Luffy's rage powers here but I was able to show off some of Luffy's hand to hand combat prowess along with showing off more Elemental Haki. It took me a while to write out this chapter because I wanted to work on my other stories, and spent all this time planning out the next chapter on this story and others. Though on the bright side, I will be able to show off Luffy's rage power in the next few chapters considering it'll be fun to do so. Now moving on, the next chapter will be a surprise for you all for what I'm planning and so forth as it might be a bit short too. So without anything else to say, please review and I'll see you all for the next chapter.
