Lil's POV
When we got underground, I met up with Mama and the rest, Zoro and Rose quickly scattered off to go find Papa and Luffy while Sanji was going to deal with the incident back at the ship.
"We are here to fight for our freedom and the honor of King Riku!" The soldier said.
"Yeah!" all the little dwarves cheered.
"They went back to the Sunny right?" I asked Mama "Do you think everything is alright there?"
"Most likely, Nami can protect herself and Wyper is more than capable. Besides when push comes to shove Brook and Chopper are plenty strong."
"They sure are." I smiled.
Wyper's POV
"If you move this ship one more god damn nautical mile, I'll have your head!" I snapped "Now let me out of this thing!"
Somehow everyone but Brook had been painted into a wall.
"And you, dumb bag of bones, stop dancing with the enemy and help us." Nami said.
"But she and I have bonded as artists."
"Brook!" I growled "I'm gonna kill you."
"But I'm already dead, YoHoHo! This painting is wonderful allow me to compose a song to accompany it."
"Will you?" Giolla asked.
"Yes, but I need my violin returned to normal first."
The woman snapped her fingers and Brook's cane and violin returned to normal.
"Ah thank you…did you know my cane is also my sword?"
"Will you play a song?"
"Sure, by the way I cut you." Brook took a few steps passed her "Bamboo Flute Slice!"
"GAH!"
"Since I don't have eyes I don't quite understand art."
"Alright Brook!" we yelled as we were freed from the artist rejected project.
"I'm taking the helm, were halfway to Green Bit, we're gonna pick up Law." I explained grabbing the wheel.
"What do we do with her?" Nami asked "dump her in the sea?"
"I don't care you guys figure it out." I said "Let's just get to Law and figure it out later."
Once we got close to that island a bunch of fish swam up and started ramming the Sunny.
"Dammit!" I yelled "Knock it off!"
"AHHH!" Chopper started screaming.
"What now?"
"Doflamingo is flying over here!"
"What?!"
"Bright Light Laser!"
I shot off a few volleys but the warlord just zipped around them.
"Aw Shit!"
"Step off!"
Doflamingo turned to block a kick.
"Sanji!"
"We're saved!"
The cook started to duel with the warlord but was well outclassed. Doflamingo did acknowledge Sanji's strength but didn't hold back one iota. Doflamingo used his powers to tie Sanji up midair.
"It's a whip!" I said as Doflamingo made a glowing strip appear in his hands.
"Overheat!"
"Sanji!"
"Just Use the Coup De Burst and get out of here!"
"Room: Shambles!"
In a blink Law teleported in, grabbed Sanji and Caesar and flashed out. He threw the two other men onto the ship.
"Doflamingo is still coming!" Chopper yelled.
"Move!" I yelled running passed "I prepping to get out."
"How goes the factory?" Law asked.
"They found it but Franky said it will take more work than he thought." Sanji explained.
"Then we need more time." Law said "Alright, you take Caesar and go to Zou, my crew is waiting there to help you. You can use that Vivre card I gave you to get there."
"Hang on we can't leave without Luffy!" Nami yelled.
I was busy down below priming the Soda Generator.
"We're surrounded by Doflamingo and a Battleship!"
"You can stay if you want but don't give them Caesar." Law commanded.
I climbed back up onto the deck and saw huge meteors were falling toward us, Law cut them up.
"We're leaving!" Nami yelled.
"Fine hurry." Law glared.
"Hey Law…" Sanji said giving the man a rough look "Dressrosa was only supposed to be a checkpoint, don't you feel that Doflamingo has suddenly become too much of your focus."
"Listen!" Law said blocking an attack and ignoring Sanji "You have to find a place with no clouds; Doflamingo will use the String-String Fruit to chase after you by tying himself to the sky.
"Everyone hang on!" I yelled pulling the letter "Coup De Burst!"
We shot into the sky and Law left with Giolla. Nami cleared the clouds away and I steered us to where she instructed.
"Alright, Robin is with, Usopp, Lil and Franky, Monet is still tagging onto them. Hopefully Rose and Zoro meet up with Luffy and Steve and no one will be alone." Sanji said.
Rose's POV
"What is that weird dude in the window doing?" I asked.
"Why is he crying?"
"He's been like that for ten or fifteen minutes." Zoro said.
"Ca-Ca-Can I habe your Autograph?!" the guy cried.
"WHAT?!"
"I'll Find Mr. Luffy and Mr. Steve for you, but can I have your autograph?!"
"Yeah sure whatever." I yelled back.
"Okay! Wait for me here!"
Lil's POV
"Many centuries ago the Tontatta were slaves to the Donquixote family." The king of the dwarves explained "But then a new King was born."
"King Riku!"
"When King Riku heard what had been done to us…" The King said as if remembering fondly "He came to us in tears and apologized while begging for our forgiveness. He promised to repay us and said we could take anything we needed form the country. He justified it as the legend of the fairies and pacified the people."
"Before we came," Monet said "This country was under the rule of the peaceful King Riku; they frequently went to assist neighboring countries, everyone here smiled."
"How do you know this?" Robin asked.
"I worked in the palace, when restored Doflamingo to the throne and shattered this country."
"The Era of Evil must not return!" The Tontattas yelled poking Monet.
"Yes, it was a mistake." She said "I owe you all an apology for my actions they have led to your distress."
"The return of the Donquixote family is the worst thing to ever happen to Dressrosa." They said
"The Riku family was well liked." Robin said "So why was that descendant in the coliseum booed? It's as if they hated the Riku family."
"The people don't know the truth." The toy soldier said "After the incident I took Rebecca, a relative of the King, into hiding, but after many years we were captured, and now she's exposed to the people of the coliseum. I will die if it protects King Riku's trust or Rebecca's life."
"But why?" Usopp asked.
"You have no stake in this?" I added.
"I couldn't protect Rebecca's Mother." The soldier said "I won't forget that day, they don't remember."
"Why?"
"Because that is Sugar's power." Monet said "Anyone she touches will become a toy."
"Really?" Robin said.
"And those toys." Monet explained "Their whole existence gets erased. It will be as if they never existed, even Sugar can forget them."
"How terrifying." Mama mumbled.
"Spooky."
"So Mr. Soldier." Monet said "Who are you? Cause you are far too committed to Princess Rebecca to be some random person."
"In the past, before I became this." the soldier said "I was Rebecca's Father."
"Hey wait does that mean your King Riku's-."
"It began on that night."
"Answer me!"
"No…It began when she arrived." He said looking at Monet "The assistant."
"That was ten years ago…"Monet said staring off "Before that time this country had never been to war in 800 years. On that night, The King bowed before all the people of this country and begged for every Beli they had, and they did just what he asked, because they loved their king…"
She seems upset.
"And then the young master…used King Riku to cut down the innocent people of this country." Monet said "And that's when I did what I was told and helped him by opening the palace gate, the family entered the palace, and ransacked it."
"How awful…"
"In the end it was just our ruse." Monet said "So that Doflamingo and his three executives, Diamante, Trebol, and Pica, could step in and be the heroes. In a single night, we dragged this country back to darkness so dark; they didn't even see the evil standing right in front of them."
"At that time we believed King Riku had gone mad but we were ashamed forever doubting him."
"It's a shame King Riku is gone." Usopp said.
"No he's still alive." The soldier explained "Doflamingo was charmed by the powers of Princes Viola."
"The Princess traded her freedom for the king's. In exchange for his life she agreed to work for us." Monet said "She still works, under the name Violet."
"What I did was part of why this beautiful country was torn apart." Monet said "I did to protect my sister, but now I have no reason to stand for it."
Monet lowered her head.
"Monet…" Mama paused.
"So please, let me help you any way I can! I will take responsibility for Sugar, just let me help you!" she begged "Please! I don't want that monster to ruin any more lives!"
