The Black Knight that was chasing the Nakama was on Stanguria, helping Zakk out fixing his barn. "I mean you really don't gotta man-" He stuck his hand up. "Please, I insist. All I ask is you tell me where Harmony has gone." Zakk nodded, "Yea yea she went to Alabasta." The Black Knight mentality noted that, and they finished making the barn in under 5 hours. He sailed back off, Zakk waving at him as he did. "God... I still hate that smell!"
Zakk wasn't in possession of two logposes to Alabasta, so the Knight followed where his took him, which was a rather cozy home away from home known as Candela. It's an autumn island, and it smells like pumpkin spice. The natives here were all rather huge people, but were all so jolly and happy, friendly with their guest. But one stood out as he wasn't very happy. "Mister Knight sir..? There's a creature that took up residence in my house..."
The Knight walked inside the house, looking around at the fairly destroyed interior. Wielding his spear he noticed the supposed creature. A light-red scaled lizardman with short green hair, large curled horns, and red eyes. 'A Drakolos..? I thought there was only one left, that one Emperor...' The monster rushed towards the knight, but a quick thrust of his spear backed it off. Then it chuckled, "I can smells it on you... a Devil Fruit... why not use it power on me!?"
He just scoffed, "Not if you desire it fool!" He grabbed the Drakolos by his horn and pulled his head into the spearhead, knocking it off balance. It grumbled before spewing red hot flames, but the black armour was unaffected. The knight rushed at him, using the heated armour to beat the living hell out of the Drakolos. "Didn't even need it."
The Candela residents all cheered for the knight as he came out, tossing the unconscious creature down outside. "Thank you sir!~" The Black Knight just waved, "Please, it was nothing." He stayed a bit as they insisted on a small feast for him, and after he ate, he excused himself. He took some for the road as the man he helped insisted, and continued his hunt.
Despite the size of his vessel, he was precise with its steering through the storms. Even so, this one fought back against him, but he stood his ground. As if the clouds themselves feared him, it began letting up. He stared ahead towards the sun nearing the edge of the sky, towards his destination, a huge desert island.
