Back at the tournament, Lapis and Genkai were watching the fights. "Say, anyone here look the part?" Lapis asked. They were currently watching Drey and Simon's bout, he just threw the smoke. "This knight may work, but they have morals. Never a good assassin," Genkai stated. "I say we just take Grump and cut our losses with everyone else." Drey is declared the winner. Genkai watched as the girl who helped his brother steal food got on stage. He scoffed, 'Grump has this fight on lock-'
His thought train derailed as she stretched. "Woah, that's a new one," Lapis said. "You wanna call it in?" He was already getting up, leaving through the arena. He returned later to witness Grump get absolutely smacked, and Harmony declared the winner. "So anything fun with rubberband?" Lapis looked eager asking that. "Confirm it as the Gum Gum, kill her. All he said." Lapis licked her lips, baring her sharp fangs ready to tear it up. "Fuck yea~"
"Ya, right Bob! Well, not champ... but still I'm previous champ!" Grump posed proudly, and Bob nodded. "yes, but look at me for a second," he made sure Harmony was gone. He then stared Grump straight in the eyes. "you've known us your whole lives." Grump repeated this, confirming it. "you've killed with us." Grump kept nodding. "you are a proud member of cypher-pol." Grump just kept nodding. "Yes Sir!" Bob pulled out a snail, calling Genkai. "it's done, shall we meet you at the pirates ship?"
"Nah, I should confirm it. We know Devil Fruits can be similar. Take Grump and meet us at the base. If it's a false positive we'll let them go at Cooktopia. If not..." He huffs out his nose. "Someone dies..." Present time, Genkai looked at the child in Lapis' hand. "Why don't we kill him now?" she asked, pulling her claws out. Julio almost pulled Victoria on her but Genkai stopped her first. "I'm... not about killing kids. Let's just get him to the boss." Julio couldn't wait anymore, and came out, Victoria aimed and ready. "Stop!"
"Oh Julio, Kiwi was-" Julio shouted, "Save it! I heard everything!" Traphi was about to step in, but Genkai stopped her. "Let me. I need a good fight." He jumped off the boat, and put his hands up. Julio honorably holstered his gun, putting his hands up as well. "I didn't trust you since you showed up." He eyed his opponent. "And now you're trying to take this kid? Get him killed? Hell no." He quick-drew Victoria, and shot at Genkai, going straight for the head.
The coin passed through Genkai as his body turned into some sort of steam. "What the-" Genkai turned completely into steam, and rushed at Julio, the steam hot enough to burn him. He cried out before Kasai's wings blew the steam away as he came up behind. Julio got himself back together, and everyone else came up behind him. "Genkai! What's going on here!?" His response was just him starting the boat. "Goodbye Kasai. Don't bother trying. Once Cypher-Pol is given a target, they're already dead," Genkai continued on, the speedboat on full speed. Kasai was going to fly after him, but Harmony stopped him. "Get to Nakama."
