The Path To The Top

After our heroes got out of their cells and got weapons, the three found their way out.

And upon leaving the cell area, they saw something intriguing, the reason why no one came to check on the prisoners, even with the amount of noise they made is because... They were being attacked by the navy...

The three of them saw this scene and had different reactions.

Damian:'this really is a good way to start our adventure!'

Mirage: 'so this is what a real battle is like, this is fucking cool!'

Allana: 'is this the beginning of my revenge, mother?'

After observing the situation, the three face each other and begin to talk.

Allana: "well, there are more people than we thought"

Mirage: "true, but isn't this more exciting?"

Allana: "true, but it's still very worrying, who knows? After all, we don't know who commands that navy ship, whether it's an admiral, I don't want our adventure to end here"

Damian: "tcharara, you're exaggerating a little, first of all, even if there's something that I doubt, the most they'll do to us is send us to some island protected by the navy, after all, we're just a bunch of kids that was sold"

Mirage: "true All, it's very difficult to have a very high-ranking sailor here, after all, we still had it, what? North Blue? The high-ranking sailors only act in the grand line forward, at the maximum that will be here He's a navy captain"

Allana: "It's true, it was bad, I had a great trip, but leaving that aside, how are we going to deal with them?"

Allana pointed in the direction of a group that looked like it was going to start fighting.

About that

The battle was being a 3v3 of sailors against the slavers, there were the second strongest of their respective ships, a navy lieutenant and the vice captain of the slavers, the fight was difficult, for both sides, until

Slaver(???): "damn, Lernie! how did they find us?"

Lernie: "I don't know... and I didn't tell you to call me boss, didn't I Conny?"

Conny: "Sorry, boss Lernie!!"

Sailor(???): "Lieutenant Yamakaji, is he *that* Lernie?"

Yamakaji:" apparently it is, Commodore Gem, but apparently the rumors are true, so you yourself became a slaver, what a disappointment, to think that you were once one of ours, but well you always had a bad personality, that why his nickname became Lernie the Carrion "

Lernie listening to what Yamakaji said, Lernie couldn't help but let out a smile and speak with his face a little red.

Lernie: "my goodness my goodness, I can't believe you know me so well and are so worried about me, it's like you're in love with me, yamakaji"

The commodore, seeing Lernie's reaction, became angry with the lack of respect towards their lieutenant, and went on the attack against Lernie and his subordinates, but before they could move, Lieutenant Yamakaji stopped them, causing a whip to pass in front of them. from the eyes of both

Gem:"Thank you, Lieutenant Yamakaji! And are you okay, Polo?"

Polo: "thanks for your concern, Gem and thank you lieutenant"

Lernie:"Hey Yamakaji! Who let you do that! Huh?!"

Yamakaji: "it seems like I was going to let my soldiers die, just because of this shitty performance"

Gem/Polo:"Acting?/ What do you mean lieutenant"

Yamakaji: "this was a very common strategy, to make your opponent angry so that he goes without thinking, leaving them with their guard open"

Gem/Polo: "ahh"

Lernie's face is briefly surprised but is soon replaced by his normal expression.

Lernie: "I knew it would be difficult to deceive you... But not impossible!"

As soon as Lernie screamed, he pulled a chain that was near his foot, which made a domino effect with several other chains on the ground that trapped the three sailors, and as soon as the plan worked, Lernie started walking towards the three. , but before he could go very far, everyone there heard a childish voice near the three sailors

????:"Hey, Mr. Sailor, that guy over there... do you want me to defeat him?"

Back to our protagonists a few moments ago

Damian thought for a while, until he heard Mirage's voice

Mirage: "Isn't this the perfect time to test the gift that D.E gave me?"

Damian: "real, I had already forgotten what you had asked him"

Allana, who was watching the two talk, could not be confused, and the two realized this and spoke

Mirage: "We didn't tell her about that, right?"

Damian: "no... We didn't talk, cool, just pay attention to their movements"

Allana: "ok"

The three of them watched that group, waiting for a fight so that Mirage could use his copying abilities, but then they waited a little, but nothing happened, they weren't fighting, but talking, which left the three children very dissatisfied.

Allana: "What a shame, they're not going to fight, are they?"

Mirage: "I'm starting to get bored"

Damian: "..."

However, they didn't have to wait long, because the two sailors decided to attack out of nowhere, and when the three thought it was going to start to look cool, the sailor who stood still, pulled the two who had gone to attack, making them dodge a whip, and just as it started, they started talking again out of nowhere, making the three of them instead of dissatisfied, they were angry and started to argue

Mirage:"I'm tired! Let's go, right All and Dami?

Allana: "right, let's go!"

Damian: "..."

When they don't hear Damian's response, Mirage and Allana start looking around and don't see him and then call him.

Mirage:"Damian?!"

Allana:"Damian?!"

Mirage: "that guy! I found him!"

Mirage found Damian who was now close to the group of sailors, and during that moment, when they were looking for Damian, the sailors were now trapped in a bunch of chains, completely immobilized

With Damian

Damian approached the sailors without any concern and asked

Damian: "Hey, sailor, that guy over there... do you want me to defeat him?"

The sailors and slavers looked with confusion and surprise at Damian.

Damian:"I'll take that as a yes"

As soon as Damian said that, he ran towards the slavers and Lernie noticed, so he prepared an attack with his whip and with that the marine lieutenant came out of the confusion and shouted

Yamakaji: "BE CAREFUL!"

But Damian wasn't even listening, because he had already noticed the attack and just raised one of his free hands, which made the whip wrap around his arm, and as soon as the blow landed, Lernie looked at Damian's face and recognized him.

Lernie: "look who it is, this is one of the golden eggs, from that old bat, I hadn't paid much attention to you, but you know what? It's a good thing that you have four arms, that means that if you If you lose one, it will still be of good use"

(*Applause* this is the time everyone is waiting for, it's class time *applause* "

You know, it wouldn't be all that bad to have part of your body wrapped around a whip, but this wasn't a normal whip, you know the nickname Carrion, it didn't just come because of Lernie's bad personality, it was also because of the condition of his victims. , leaving only their carrion and all this thanks to her special weapon: the bladed whip that tears apart everything that has the unfortunate fate of meeting her

(After all this explanation, let's get back to normal programming [finally!])

After having his arm wrapped around Lernie's whip, Damian didn't care what Lernie was saying, he just stared at the whip.

While Damian was staring at the whip, Lernie was trying with all his might to pull his whip, but with no sign of succeeding, it seemed like it was stuck in place like magic and there wasn't a single scratch on it, it was as if Damian's arm was made of pure steel. and after realizing what kind of monster Mother Irene had sold, he heard a voice speaking to him

Damian: "look, what a different weapon... To say the least... can I get it for myself?"

As he finished his words, Damian pulled his arm, sending Lernie flying towards him.

Lernie:"what the fuck- ahhhhh!"

With Lernie in the air, heading towards Damian, who as soon as he pulled his arm, just changed his posture a little, and the moment Lernie got close enough, Lernie's face connected with everything with Damian's shield, causing his face to go inwards, with all the teeth on his face, broken and along with that because of the impact, Lernie flew straight into the sea, unconscious

The sailors who saw everything from their cabin were surprised by Damian's strength, after all, it's very difficult to find someone with such monstrous strength.

Damian, after telling Lernie to go swimming, unwound Lernie's whip, which was still on his arm, after which, he turned towards the direction of Lernie's subordinates while Smiling with his new whip in his hands

After having dealt with Lernie's subordinates, Damian turned and went towards the sailors and Yamakaji who was in the center spoke

Yamakaji: "Thank you young man, I know we owe you and everything, but can you do us one more favor?"

Damian: "no"

Yamakaji: "I beg your pardon, but can you repeat it?"

Damian: "I said no"

As soon as Damian got close to them, he picked them up like a sack of potatoes and started walking and Yamakaji, now worried, asks

Yamakaji: "h-hey boy, what are you doing?"

Damian: "What am I doing? That's simple... I'm taking out the trash"

Then Damian throws the sailors overboard while waving his hand goodbye and then turns around, coming face to face with Mirage and Allana.

Damian:"*sarcasm* wow, what a scare"

Mirage: "Stop the drama Dami, now can you tell me what the hell you were doing there without me?"

Allana: "You're a four-armed idiot, if you don't know how pre-peratured we were, what do you mean 'without me' Mirage?"

Mirage: "don't change the subject Allana, the wrong one here is Dami"

Damian: "before you start criticizing me again... I'm sorry for going there, but I was bored and it's not like Mira wasn't thinking about doing the same thing as me"

When they heard Damian, Mirage turned their face away from Damian and spoke as if they were a child who was caught doing shit

Mirage:"a-ah... I-I don't know what y-you're talking about"

Damian: "okay, let's continue, after all we don't have all day"

After walking for a while, they saw some fights, but they were all very boring, they wouldn't even be useful for Mirage to copy... Until they arrived at the bow of the ship and Damian pointed to a direction where two guys were fighting.

Damian:"those two, I want to fight them"

'How strange... I've never felt this before... these two seem like... there's a strange "atmosphere" coming from them, how interesting!'

*COLLISION OF SWORDS COLLIDING*

In the direction can be seen a man of at least 2 meters, strong build, Asian, short black hair, around 20 years old with navy clothing and a katana, clashing swords against another man of about 1.80 meters, somewhat slender, green hair, looking about 40 years old, wearing expensive clothes compared to the rest of the slavers and holding two scimitars

Mirage: "Don't even come, Dami! I'm the one who's going to fight them!"

Allana: "I'm going, I haven't been able to use that yet"

*MORE NOISES OF SWORDS COLLAIDING*

While the three of them were talking, the two men continued to fight, the captain of the slavers seemed to have the advantage, launching several attacks that when they collided with the sailor's blade created a sound so loud that it seemed like a cannon was being fired, but if you observe Carefully one could see that the navy captain was blocking each blow very easily

Back with our protagonists, they were still arguing, about who will fight until

Damian:"ENOUGH! let's decide this with two or one, okay?"

Mira/All: "YOU CAN!"

After two or one

Allana: "WHAT I HATE!"

Damian: "calm down blonde, you can't win them all, tcharara"

Allana: "fuck you, Dami"

Mirage: "So who's going to fight who?"

Damian: "well... Could it be me against the guy with one sword and you against the guy with two swords?"

Mirage: "can"

Allana: "and now what do I do?"

Mirage: "well you can watch us... or I don't know, go and see if the people down there are okay"

Allana: "better than doing nothing, I'm going to go check on the people down there"

Dami/Mira: "good luck/see you"

Going towards the door they came from, Allana, out of the corner of her eye, saw something strange, on one side of the ship a sailor could be seen all drenched and on the other side alone a guy with his face bleeding all over, also drenched and when the Both sides saw Damian, their faces turned into something similar to a demon, they were so pissed, as soon as Allana saw these two, she was surprised and decided to follow them

While this was happening, Damian and Mirage started talking again.

Mirage: "So how are we going to separate them?"

Damian: "I think there are two ways: the boring one where we go up to them and ask politely or..."

Mirage: "or?..."

Damian just stretched out his arms

Damian: "go up"

Mirage: "Why do I think I'm going to regret this?"

Even with this bad feeling, Mirage still climbs into Damian's hands

Damian: "Prepare... aim... and fire!"

With Mirage in his hands, Damian throws him with all his strength towards the slavers' captain.

Mirage:"Ahhh! You bastard!"

The two who were fighting turned around in surprise when they heard a childish scream coming towards them, but before they could react in any way, the slave captain overturned along with the Mirage that had clung to him.

And the navy captain looked at this without understanding anything, but before he could reason out what had happened properly, Damian appeared in front of him, in position for a handshake.

Damian: "I'm sorry I disturbed your fight, even my name is Damian"

Scene change (Allana)

Getting a little closer to the two guys who were heading towards Damian, Allana noticed something

Allana: 'Oh shit, I hope I'm wrong, because if they really are, those guys that Damian threw into the sea, they will try to get in the way of Dami's fight and if that happens he will become unbearable and I don't want to deal with that , I better go check it out'

While Allana was approaching, the two who were blinded by hatred, didn't see each other until they hit each other and as soon as that happened, the two got into a fighting position, which had left Allana relieved, but out of nowhere they started talking.

Lernie: "Yamakaji, by the look of your clothes, that kid threw you into the sea, right?"

Yamakaji: "and?"

Lernie: "I know we're not each other's best friends, but how about a truce?"

Yamakaji: "hmmm... I hate it, but that kid, the way he was looking at me and my subordinates... that look... beauty, I accept"

Allana heard all this, she just sighed

Allana:'it had to be Dami, to be able to make enemies come together to go against him, impressive... I'm going to have to fix them'

As soon as the two formed a truce, they started to go after Damian, but Allana appeared in front of them.

Allana: "It was bad having to disturb you both, but I can't let you interfere in Dami's fight"

The two look at Allana and then look at each other, only to start laughing.

Yamakaji: "jarara, and why should we care about what you can or can't do? little one"

Lernie: "yeah, what are you going to do if we don't listen to you? blonde"

Allana:"who am I?... my name is Allana"

Upon hearing Allana's name, Lernie and Yamakaji turned in the opposite direction to where she was and started talking again.

Lernie:"Allana... I think I've heard that name... but where?"

Yamakaji: "true... ah! I remembered!"

Lernie: "really? where from?"

Yamakaji: "It's the name of a cousin of mine!"

Hearing Yamakaji's response, Lernie looked at him in disbelief... then his mind clicked

Lernie: "it's obvious that she's not your cousin, but I remembered who she is... she's friends with the kid with 4 arms"

Yamakaji: "cool... but why did you say that in such a sinister way?"

With the same disbelieving look as before, Lernie just sighed.

Lernie: "I said it like that, because we can use it to distract 4 arms"

Yamakaji: "man! she's a kid!"

Lernie: "please, we're not going to hurt her, we're just going to make her faint and use her as bait for a surprise attack"

Yamakaji: "okay..."

As soon as they formed the plan, the two turned to Allana again, only to find in Allana's place, a 1.50m tall girl with four arms and a small horn on the side of her head.

Yamakaji: "girl, did you happen to see a little girl about... what 1.10m"

??????: "I don't think so sir, does she have any characteristics that help you find her?"

Lernie: "she has blonde hair, almost a shade of gold, just like yours..."

Yamakaji: "Her eye color is green, very similar to yours..."

As they spoke, they both turned to each other.

Yamakaji/lernie:"and her voice is frighteningly similar to yours... shit"

Before that

Allana saw that the two of them turned and started talking, so she closed her eyes

Allana: 'Okay, let's try again, like Dami and Mira said, just remember the feeling...'

-flashback-

As soon as the three of them arranged themselves around the trunk, Damian grabbed the lock and ripped it off, then Damian opened the trunk slowly to create drama and as soon as the trunk was opened, the three were amazed.

Damian: "tcharara!"

Mirage: "Fuck!"

Allana: "No fucking way!"

Inside the box was a strangely shaped fruit, it was different from anything they had seen in their lives, but even though it was different, the three knew what this fruit was.

Dami/Mira/All:"IT'S AN AKUMA NO MI!"

Yes, in fact, it was an akuma no mi, a fruit that gives the user special power in exchange for the ability to swim in the sea (or have 30% of the body submerged in water), being divided into three (3) categories:

Lologies: which give the ability to transform and control an element of nature (such as fire, light, forest, etc.)

Zoans: different from logia, zoans give the user the ability to transform into an animal/species, mythological or not, from any era, whether prehistoric or current (such as being able to transform into a caramel dog or a fucking sun god )

And the paramecia: they are a little more complex in a way compared to the other types, as the paramecia are not limited to just one style of power, being able to give the user one of these powers, body modification or the production and manipulation of substances and environments (such as the ability to separate one's body into several parts or produce and control candle wax)

But returning to the fruit in front of our protagonists, it looked like two long berries, one red and the other blue, intertwining in a way that resembled DNA.

Damian:"it's mine!"

Mirage: "You meant 'it's all yours, Mirage', right?"

Allana: "no, what he meant was 'she's all yours, Allana', right?"

Damian: "they both made a mistake, what I said was 'it's mine!'"

And so a fight broke out between the three, there was hair pulling, fingers in the eyes, kicks in the balls and worse things that I prefer not to describe, for the safety of their Innocence.

After the bloody war, the victorious person was standing on top of the corpses of his enemies, the winner was...

Allana!!

As incredible as it may seem, it wasn't strength or speed that won this war, but rather... competitiveness, Allana took advantage of the competitive spirit of her two friends and let them wear themselves out and as soon as they were tired, she launched an attack surprise on both of them (I don't even say where she attacked...), thus winning the war and the akuma no mi

Arriving close to the chest, Allana took the fruit in her hands and took a bite and meanwhile, Damian and Mirage got up and saw everything, so the two went to Allana's side

Damian/Mirage:"how does it taste?"

Damian and Mirage stared at Allana with shining eyes, waiting for her reaction, until

Allana: "it's horrible! It feels like I was biting a bar of soap, ehhh"

Damian: "tcharara, so they weren't exaggerating when in the anime they said the taste was terrible, how interesting"

Mirage: "but... so do you feel something different?"

Allana: "I think-"

At that moment, Allana falls to the ground with a shocked expression, so the two run to help her and the moment Allana is touched, something strange happens...

Allana: 'what is this feeling?... It's so strange... but at the same time so familiar...'

While Allana was absorbed in that sensation, outside, her body began to transform...

Dami/Mira: "what the fuck was that?"

-end of flashback-

After transforming, Allana noticed that the two in front of her had finished talking and were turning towards her and were confused, so they asked

Yamakaji:"girl-

-Skipping the dialogue and getting back to the main topic-

Yamakaji/Lernie:"... shit"

As soon as the two realized, Allana took advantage of their distraction and punched them, causing them to be thrown a few meters from where they were and spit some blood.

Lernie: "what was that? a moment ago, she was a short little girl and out of nowhere she turned into a copy of that kid with 4 arms"

Yamakaji: "she had to be a Devil Fruit user... if she really is one, forget about that thing about not hurting her, after all, if we take it easy... we could die"

Lernie: "akuma no mi, right? So using her as bait will be more difficult than I thought, so let's not take it easy... I'll go for it!"

At that moment, Lernie picked up a random sword that was close to a body on the ground and ran to attack Allana, making a cross cut from top to bottom, a blow that Allana noticed and went to defend using her hand to grab the blade.

Yamakaji: "Idiot, don't run away without a plan"

Yamakaji, taking advantage of the fact that Allana's attention was on Lernie, attacked her legs, making a clean horizontal cut on her knee.

But... as soon as these blows reached their target... both swords were stopped by Allana's skin, causing only a superficial cut on her hand and knee.

Allana, having both of them in a favorable situation, decides to throw a kick at Yamakaji that causes him to be dragged, but before going too far, Yamakaji sticks his katana in the ground, making him brake, already with Lernie, Allana grabs his arms and turns him around. high speed, throwing him towards the sea, but before reaching the end of the ship, Lernie grabs the ship's ropes and begins to launch himself from one to another until he reaches the ground.

Lernie:"damn... she's strong, not even close to being as strong as Sharp when he uses that strange technique of his to the fullest, I remember the last time he used 'that', he destroyed the hull of a navy ship "

Yamakaji: "how tough it reminds me of the captain when he uses Tekai... but unlike him, I can cut it!"

Seeing that her enemies weren't that affected by her attacks and that she was cut, Allana was a little worried.

Allana: 'how?... how did they manage to cut me?... Damn, I have to finish them off quickly!'

Knowing now that her opponents are not just any shit, Allana decided to go on the offensive, going first to where Yamakaji was.

Yamakaji:"me first? You'll regret this"

Deciding to observe his opponent's movements, Yamakaji stands still waiting for Allana's blow, Lernie in his sneaky way, he went to try a surprise attack on Allana as soon as she attacked Yamakaji

Allana as soon as she reached Yamakaji, she threw a punch with both of her right arms, which was easily deflected by Yamakaji, but unfortunately for him that was exactly what Allana wanted.

Then, before her hands hit the ground, she changed her stance to do a spinning kick using her hands as support, which first hit Lernie's legs, who had tried to attack Allana's back, making him fall to the ground and then the kick went up, hitting him. Yamakaji's chest

He barely manages to block it with the blade of his sword, causing a slightly deep cut a little below the other cut, but even though he blocked it, Yamakaji was thrown a few meters back.

On the ground, Lernie started to get up, but halfway he stopped when he looked up and saw his whip flying in the air, in slow motion, Lernie tried to reach his weapon, but before he could even stretch his arm, Lernie felt something heavy on your back

Lernie: "my boy- *BAAAM*"

After the kick, Allana returned to her normal posture and turned to Lernie, who for some reason was looking at the sky with an idiotic expression, as if she had fallen in love at first sight, not being stupid, (even though blonde hair speaks the opposite) Allana punches Lernie in the back, which sinks to the floor and goes to the floor below, after which Allana turns back to Yamakaji

Allana: "It's you! Are you going to stay still or are you going to come up?"

Yamakaji: "I hope you don't regret saying that"

Saying this, Yamakaji sheathed his sword and bowed his body a little, but just as he was about to strike, he saw a hand waving near Allana's leg.

Yamakaji: 'a hand?... what is it saying?'

Lernie (hand): "wave (here!) Points at Allana's leg and then down (I'm going to pull her down) points at Yamakaji, then makes a cutting movement and then one points down (Then you go down, cutting her with everything) so finally a thumbs up (get it?)"

Yamakaji: 'I don't understand what he's up to, but that's not important, after all she won't put up with it...'

Then Yamakaji, after ignoring the little hand (Lernie), he shoots at high speed at Allana, being so fast that he couldn't even see the cut that Allana, who was unable to react due to Yamakaji's speed and in addition to that, she was left with the foot stuck in the hole she made when she punched Lernie who had pulled her, because of this Allana received the blow straight on, causing a deep horizontal cut in the middle of her chest that sprayed blood everywhere

Yamaki: "shit Lernie! the blow was supposed to be lower, I almost decapitated the girl!"

Coming out of the hole, Lernie looked at Yamakaji with a carefree look and began to go after his whip.

Lernie: "Stop the drama, she's alive and breathing, so enough of that, it's shameful..."

Thinking it's a whip, Lernie picks it up and starts stretching it, only to realize that it was cut in half, seeing this Lernie starts to cry.

Lernie: "ahhhh! Honey! Who did this to you?! It was that kid, right?! I swear I'll never forgive him!"

Yamakaji: "Stop it, man!... It's shameful..."

Lernie: "Fuck you, Yamakaji!"

Meanwhile, Allana had gotten up from the hole, noticing a pain in her chest, she looked at her chest, only to find all that blood oozing out of it.

Allana:'that... is... mine? no... no no... no! no no! NO! NO! I can't die here! I just can't!'

Allana started to run away from Lernie and Yamakaji, but after running for a while, she stopped, Allana stood still looking at the sight in front of her.

Allana:'how do they do it? They're clearly at a disadvantage too, but why don't they seem scared?...'

What Allana was watching was Damian and Mirage's fights, the two were in somewhat difficult situations too, Mirage was barely dodging cuts from a guy with green hair and Damian was in mid-air with a bloody and cut shoulder, But even though they were in these situations, they both still had a smile on their faces.

Allana:'these two... they are making me look like an idiot for being scared... *smile*'

At that moment, Allana's body began to transform again, her size decreased from 1.50m to 1.40m and an animal's fur began to grow on her arms and legs, her eyes became sharper and her fangs grew, her nails became longer. They lengthened, becoming sharp, and the cut on his chest regenerated, leaving only a scar in its place.

Allana: "let's stop running away"

Taking the tonfas that were attached to her back (she had forgotten to use them before... this blonde) and held them with her upper and lower hands, Allana got into a running posture

Allana:'what did Mirage say? As if...'

-flashback-

Dami/Mira: "what the fuck was that"

In front of the two was Allana in this half-oni and half-mink form, still a little confused, she gets up and immediately notices the extra arms and the fur on them.

Allana: "ahhh! What is that?!"

Damian:"4 arms? And a horn...!!!"

Mirage:"by the animal? And that size...!!!"

Allana: "What do you mean? I don't understand anything!"

Mira/Dami: "What the fuck!"

-a while later-

Damian and Allana were having an arm wrestling match, as soon as they started, it seemed like the two were on equal footing, but Damian soon put an end to it, emerging victorious.

Damian:"tcharara, I'm still the strongest"

Allana: "I thought it would be tougher..."

Damian: "don't be so sad, I don't even remember the last time I had to use so much force"

Mirage: "okay, okay, let's go to the next test"

-after a while-

Mirage and Allana were sitting in lotus position

Allana: "What are we really doing?"

Mirage:"Seeing if you can get the electro"

Allana: "so how do you do it?"

Damian:"think of a turn-"

Mirage: "better think of another analogy, remember what happened the last time we used it?"

Damian: "that explosion was cool... so which one do we use?"

Thinking for a bit, Mirage thinks of an idea

Mirage: "I know, think that you are filling a glass and when you release the electro it would be like emptying that glass... understand?"

Looking deep into Mirage's soul, Allana speaks with a super serious face

Allana: "No! But I'll try!"

Concentrating, Allana closes her eyes for a moment and as soon as she opens them there is a bit of electricity coming out of them.

-end of flashback-

Allana: 'I was filling a glass...? I still don't understand this analogy... never mind, just use it as before'

Then Allana's legs started to release light blue rays, as soon as she felt the energy, Allana ran at full strength towards Lernie and Yamakaji who were distracted talking to each other (what a surprise, eh...), arriving Near them, Allana supported herself on her arms and gave them both an electro kick, making them rise a little into the air.

Lernie:"what!??"

Yamakaji:"how!?"

Having been caught distracted, the two almost lost consciousness due to the electro from the kick, but just barely, they managed to stay on their feet and returned to their fighting stances.

Yamakaji: "she changed again? And the court... healed?"

Lernie:"first monstrous strength, now damn... this is getting boring"

Allana: "thank you for the scar, as a reward I will finish you off"

First Allana channeled electro into her hands and tonfas and attacked them both, Lernie jumped over Allana and using his whip, he trapped one of the arms that had the tonfas causing bleeding due to the blades in the whip, but the arm that was free, it pierced his belly, causing a hole in the area and a second-degree burn

Yamakaji tried to dodge and counterattack, but due to the difference in speed that the new form gave, he only managed to avoid the fatal hit, instead of hitting the head squarely, only his cheek was caught, which was opened by because of the electro, however the counterattack was not a failure, Yamaki managed to pierce Allana's shoulder, immobilizing the upper right arm that was holding the tonfa

Lernie: "Son of a bitch!! You bastard! You're going to pay for this!"

Yamakaji: "Fuck you if you're a child! Now it's personal, die!!"

Allana: "So pissed off just because of that? What failures! How are you going to survive this!?"

Even with their injuries, the two began to exert more force in their blows, Lernie pulled his whip even more, making him almost tear off the arm he had immobilized and Yamakaji with his sword still inside Allana, making a vertical cut, opening a hole in her shoulder

Ignoring the pain, Allana begins to charge electro throughout her body, reaching the point that all that energy could no longer stay inside her, thus an explosion of electricity, causing both the weapons and Lernie and Yamakaji themselves to be thrown and fall kneeling on the ground. floor

As soon as the two fell, they struggled to stay upright and as soon as they did, they saw Allana with her two upper arms almost torn apart, leaving so much blood that it looked like a fountain, she was struggling to maintain consciousness, her hazy eyes that seemed not to fill.

Using their last remnants of strength, Yamakaji and Lernie prepare one last attack, even though they are far from Allana, they launch a horizontal slash in the air, which surprisingly continues as a sharp gust of air heading towards Allana's head, which moments before The target transformed into his normal human form and fell to his knees, causing the air slashes to collide and cancel each other out.

Still conscious using the scrap of their energy pan, the two go towards an unconscious Allana, when they reached her, her eyes opened and at the same moment that this happened, a light blue wave left her body, making Lernie and Yamakaji fall to the ground with foam coming out of their mouths

Thus leaving Allana also unconscious on the floor, but something very strange happened, the bodies around her began to release a type of 'smoke' that was absorbed by Allana, healing her body only leaving the scar on her chest but she looked like she had been made years ago

-After a good few minutes-

Allana had already woken up and was sitting up, recovering from the fatigue and pain of the fight.

Allana: 'that's strange, I don't have any scratches, apparently the healing of zoans is really-'

As she thought Allana felt a chill behind her and when she turned around she saw a familiar sailor... it was the guy Damian was fighting

Allana: 'What is he doing here?! Dami lost?! Impossible!'

In her moment of despair, Allana pretended she was unconscious...

Scene change (Mirage)

After being dragged for a good few meters, the two stop when they hit the wall of the captain's cabin, as soon as they hit, Mirage quickly lets go and stands up, while the slave captain was still on the wall, but was already starting to get up.

Mirage:'as soon as I'm done here, I'm going to have a little chat with Dami'

The moment Mirage saw his opponent rise, he enters a sword stance, with one katana in the normal upward direction and the other on the opposite side close to the other forming an x ​​with the katanas.

The captain as soon as he got up he was confused, after all one moment he was fighting a sailor and the next he was outside his cabin, so he looked around only to find a mink boy in front of him with two katanas aimed at him.

????:"boy, can you tell what happened here?"

Mirage: "simply put, my friend and I wanted to fight you and that other guy you were fighting"

????: "ahhh... cool, so what's your name?"

Mirage:"Mirage"

????:"Mirage... Mirage... Mira... Ah! aren't you that orphan mink that old bat sold?"

Mirage: "I'm not for sale!"

????: "you're really not for sale, because you've already been sold"

Mirage: "So tell me something? Where's the receipt?"

????:"ahahahaha, kid, I liked you, so how about you work for me?... Ah! I forgot to say my name, I'm Sharp, captain of this ship, so what do you say, accepted?"

Mirage: "I'm sorry, I'm going to have to refuse"

Sharp: "really? What a shame, so let's get this over with quickly, after all I still have to expel the navy and then take you slaves to your buyers"

As soon as Sharp finished speaking, he removes his scimitars from the sheath and turns them to the non-cutting side and then enters his combat stance, where his arms are down and a little open (+- like Frieza's pose)

After entering his stance, Sharp began to walk towards Mirage, who was waiting, and as soon as Sharp arrived he swung one of his scimitars in an upward and downward motion.

Sharp:"Ascension: Waterfall"

Mirage without much effort dodged the blow

Mirage: "Is that it? I expected more..."

'that was strange, he was very slow, it even looked like the movement of someone in water, and his foot, it was for a short time but I'm sure his foot left the ground as if he was swimming'

Sharp: "how interesting, even though this blow was slow, not just anyone can dodge like that"

After dodging, Mirage decided to try and copy Sharp's move.

Mirage:"Ascension: cach-"

But just as he was about to start making the movement, Mirage's body simply stopped midway.

Sharp: "Wait!... you just copied my technique!? Forget your buyers! You're going to come with me whether you want it or not!"

Mirage:"I already said no!"

'What the fuck was that? Out of nowhere my body felt heavy, it must have to do with his technique'

Not being stupid or anything, Sharp attacked again, but now he changed his posture a little, now the blows came from the horizontal, it even looked like Sharp was swimming in the air

Sharp:"Ascension: current"

And again Mirage dodged them without much difficulty at first, but after dodging a few, Mirage was caught by a graze.

Mirage:'shit, what a pain! But now I understand his technique! It works as if the user were in the water, more specifically against the current, so at first the blow is slow, but when the body gets used to the pressure the blow becomes fast and strong... too much!'

While Mirage was thinking, Sharp, who had slashed him, continued the strike and spoke

Sharp: "I'm sorry kid, I wasn't supposed to cut you and I thought you were faster than that"

Mirage didn't respond, he just concentrated on dodging the blows that were getting faster and faster, to get further away Mirage used electro on his legs and jumped onto the captain's cabin and continued running.

Sharp, the moment he saw electro he was surprised for a moment, but it was over, (after all, Mirage showed that he was very talented, so it would be natural for him to know electro when he was so young) but in that short time he lost sight of Mirage, just to find him above his cabin, so he followed him

Up there, Mirage continued to run until he reached the end of the ship and waited there in Sharp's posture, and when Sharp got there, he also remained in the posture

Sharp: "So kid, aren't you going to run away this time?"

Mirage: "No, I'm not running away anymore!"

'I hope this works!'

Sharp: "so let's go"

Mirage and Sharp:"" Ascension:Waterfall!!""

This time Mirage's blow worked, because while he was dodging 'Rise: Riptide', he was actually trying to adapt to the pressure of Sharp's technique, so he realized that in 'Rise: Riptide' the pressure of the blow is Differently, it was less dense compared to 'Ascension: Waterfall', so Mirage tried to use the lower density of 'Runtide' in 'Waterfall'

At the moment the blows met, Mirage's strength was not enough, so Mirage was thrown with everything towards the sea, as he fell, Sharp was thinking if Mirage was worth enough for him to wet his clothes, but in the end In the end he jumped into the sea to rescue Mirage

Mirage:'hehe, idiot'

At sea, Mirage pretended to be passed out, to be rescued by Sharp, which worked, shortly after he was with Sharp

Sharp: "Really kid? You don't know how to swim?"

Mirage:*nothing* (you get it, because he's in the water... lol)

Sharp: "kid?!"

Sharp with a little concern, holds Mirage very close to his face to see that he was breathing, at that moment Mirage stopped pretending and bit Sharp's ear, which made him let go of Mirage, who again took the opportunity and charged electro in the legs and kicked Sharp, who was wet with sea water, suffered a chain reaction, causing a small explosion that threw Mirage towards the empty navy ship and Sharp was thrown to the bottom of the sea

As soon as Mirage reached the sea again, he started looking for some solid place and found a ship near him, so he started heading towards it.

Mirage: 'did that guy die?... I hope so, after all, after what happened, I'm sure he's going to be pissed as hell'

Unfortunately, Mirage forgot that hoping for an enemy's death is the first thing you shouldn't do when you're not sure you've won, so as soon as he arrived on the ship, Mirage heard a noise in the water.

Mirage: "Fuck you universe!"

After cursing the universe, Sharp comes out of the sea and next to him a large pillar of water similar to some animal and his appearance... after the blow he was almost unrecognizable as part of his clothes along with his body was burned

Sharp:"Ascension: Waterfall"

In the air, Sharp with blood in his eyes, looks everywhere he could see, he finds Mirage with a scared face looking at him, as soon as he finds him, Sharp with all his fury launches another blow, in mid-air Sharp spins his body towards where Mirage is and points his scimitars like a spear and started spinning while he jumped in the air to go towards Mirage with high speed

Sharp: "I found you, you son of a bitch!! Ascension: knock up stream!"

Mirage, not being an animal, decides to go up even faster, but when he takes a glance, Sharp is even closer to him, so in an act of desperation, Mirage enters through the cannon space, as soon as he enters the arsenal, Mirage runs away. to hide

Outside, Sharp couldn't see where the Mirage entered, he just knew that he climbed onto the ship, so he jumped onto the walls of the ship and stuck to them using his scimitars and then using them as leverage to get to the bow of the ship, like this. Sharp returned the search

Sharp: "Look kid! If you come here and apologize, maybe I can give you a painless death!"

Downstairs, Mirage was still looking for some hiding place, but unfortunately because of his nervousness and the dark environment, Mirage was unable to see a bottle of rum that was on the floor, causing him to fall.

Upstairs, Sharp heard a noise on the floor below and just gave a wide smile and threw a blow at the floor making it collapse, then Sharp went down to the armory floor.

All of this happened so fast that Mirage couldn't hide, so he decided to go behind one of the cannons and started changing its direction.

As Sharp got down, he immediately found Mirage who was pointing a cannon at him, when Sharp saw this he thought about getting out of the cannon's range, but when he saw the cannon again, he smiled and started walking towards Mirage

Sharp: "Kid, you know I really liked you... but now the only thing I want to do is kill you, you know how that breaks my heart, after all I was thinking about adopting you and teaching you everything I know , like..."

During this, Mirage was trying to light the cannon, but for some reason he couldn't... so he tried... tried again... and again... until he succeeded, but as soon as the fuse died. .. Nothing... nothing happened

Sharp:"...bad luck, boy"

With all these events, Mirage was in despair

Mirage:'shit! Shit! Shit! What the hell do I do, think! think! think! What was Damian going to do? I'm sure I would do something risky like try to put electro on my entire body to make myself faster and stronger or put it on my katanas to cause more damage... wait! These ideas aren't bad, but they are risky... but apparently I have no alternative'

During Mirage's mental monologue, Sharp continued to advance and taking advantage of Mirage being distracted, he tried to attack him, but at the last second before hitting, Mirage's body disappeared out of nowhere and Sharp, confused, looked back only to see a trail of electricity. going to the other side of the armory

Sharp:'quick! That was faster than before'

On the other side Mirage, as soon as he dodged the blow, Mirage turned to Sharp in the Ascension stance

Mirage:'it wasn't what I wanted, the electro didn't go to the whole body, but this time it was faster than normal, it must have been because when I tried to pass it to the whole body I tried to leave the electro current constant, but it all ended up going to the legs, so just try again and let the flow go to the whole body'

Meanwhile, Sharp came running after Mirage, and he was standing still with his eyes closed, but there was something strange, if you looked carefully you would notice that every now and then some rays would come out of his body and if you looked more carefully you would notice that His katanas were starting to glow faintly blue, but Sharp, blinded by rage, didn't even pay attention and attacked again even though he was a little far away.

Sharp:"Ascension: current!"

At that same moment, Mirage opens his eyes, which were emitting a little electricity, and also begins to attack.

Mirage:"Electric flow: Rise: current"

Because of Mirage's new technique, the electric flow, which was making him keep up with Sharp who was at full speed, but in addition, there was something else in... his katanas, which at first had a weak glow of electricity, the each movement was getting brighter and some rays of electricity were even coming out of the katanas and along with all this, his own body was emitting these rays, which even looked like it was forming a drawing, but these were

But leaving that aside, the two continued their attacks, getting closer and closer to each other... until their swords collided, it seemed like the two were going to repel each other, but an energy came out of Mirage's body in a purple color. , which made Sharp's tired body falter, causing him to be repelled by Mirage's blow and causing him to have his guard open

And Mirage, seeing Sharp's hesitation, didn't forgive him, but there was one thing that Mirage hadn't realized, which was the reason for Sharp's hesitation, because at that moment Mirage unconsciously used King's Haki.

Mirage:"Electric flow: Ascension: Waterfall"

After being hit by Mirage's king's haki, everything around Sharp seemed to be in slow motion, then Sharp saw Mirage's last blow, but to him, it wasn't Mirage that was making that blow, but what he saw it was a 'mirage' of him when he was younger, the day he managed for the first time to use the technique that he spent years of his life creating and mastering, seeing this his last action before being hit... was smiling... . your own first technique, it will be the last thing. that he will see before his end

So Mirage's katanas hit him, cutting Sharp in half, but the blow didn't end there, he continued going upwards, but what caught attention were the rays that were surrounding Mirage, which for an instant formed the image of a small dragon, which was flying towards the ceiling, destroying part of the hull of the navy ship

After causing this destruction, Mirage, who was in the air, fell to the ground tiredly, almost fainting, but with the last bit of strength he still had, he climbed to the bow of the ship before fainting when he saw a sailor coming towards him.

Scene change (Damian)

Back with Damian, still with his hand raised

Damian:"... My name is Damian"

The navy captain, seeing this whole event, was just perplexed, but he still shook Damian's hand.

????:"pleasure Damian, I'm Issho a navy captain"

Damian:"Issho?... How interesting!"

'So that was why my instincts were telling me he was strong! He's a future admiral, he's Fujitora!'

And the moment Damian finished speaking, he punched Issho in the face...

Issho: "Damian, can you answer me, why did you punch me?"

However, before the punch could hit him, Issho, with his free hand, drew his katana and blocked the punch.

Damian: "Why? That's quite simple, you're strong and I want to fight you!"

'he's fast, I didn't even see him draw his katana, that means he's faster than Mira... how exciting!'

Wasting no more time, Damian continued attacking using his three free arms, and Issho continued to defend and dodge all the blows with ease.

Damian, seeing that his punches weren't working, decided to do a feint by pretending to throw a punch, but actually throwing a kick at Issho's ribs and the impact was so strong that it made Damian let go of Issho's hand, who instead of going flying. like the others, he was only dragged a few meters there

Issho: "So that's it? I thought there was some special reason, if that's all, I think I can do it for you, but I have to be quick, after all I have to go arrest Sharp and the rest of his tribulation"

'this boy... he broke my ribs with just one kick? what a monster'

Damian:"Sharp? Who is this?"

Issho: "he was the guy who was fighting me"

Damian: "that guy? I guess you won't have to worry about that then!"

Issho:"why is that?"

Damian:"Mirage and Allana, my best friends, Mirage was the one who dragged this Sharp guy, which means that by the time we finish here he will have already won and Allana went to deal with something and then she will end everything else in the bunch, both the people who are with this Sharp guy and his sailors"

Issho:"you seem to have a lot of trust in them, may I ask why?"

Damian: "tcharara, that's obvious, the two of them are like brothers to me, if I didn't trust them, what kind of brother would I be?"

Then Damian went on the attack, but this time he was not empty-handed, now he took all his weapons, holding a shield in his two left hands and a spear and a bladed whip in his right.

As soon as he arrived within range of the weapons, Damian tried to attack with the spear, but Issho, just as the spear was about to hit him, used his katana to change the direction of the spear, thus taking no damage.

But Damian didn't stop there, as soon as he saw that his strike didn't work, taking advantage of Issho being distracted by the spear, Damian followed up with a whip, which almost hit Issho, but as if he already knew what Damian was going to do at the last second he managed to defend with his katana

Issho:"How long have you been using these weapons? One day?"

Damian: "a little less, I stole these weapons today, it's actually the first time I've held one... and I'm loving it!"

Issho: "today, right? So if your 'brothers' have the same level of skill as you, they must already be dead"

Damian: "tcharara, my level you say? That's what I should say, after all..."

It was at that moment that Issho realized that his katana was still stuck in the whip, so Damian pulled the katana with all his might, but even then Issho didn't let go of his weapon, causing him to be pulled along, but in the middle of the way, Issho sank his feet into the floor of the ship and made a downward cut that managed to cut the whip practically in half, leaving a surprised Damian with half a whip

Damian: "It has to be a joke!! I had just stolen that whip!"

Removing his feet from the ground, Issho began to walk towards Damian.

Issho: "Sorry... I know! Why don't you and your friends become sailors, then I'll give you a new whip and your brothers can learn from professionals"

Damian: "Tempting... I'll think about it... if you can defeat me!"

Issho:"I hope you don't go back on your word!"

Having made this agreement, the two get into their fighting stances, Damian with his shield and spear and Issho with his katana.

As soon as the two were in position, Damian started attacking with a spear, which proved useless, because Issho was a little excited about the deal, he decided to loosen up a little, so instead of dodging like he was before, he decided to attack too

Damian:"Freestyle: launch"

Issho:"Tora-Ryu: Tora no kōgeki(Tiger style: Tiger attack)"

then as soon as Damian came to attack with his spear, Issho also attacked, cutting the entire spear as he approached, and stopping his sword at Damian's neck

Issho: "So, did I give up?"

Damian: "give up? That's it? Don't fuck! I'm not even close to finishing here!"

'this guy, he's not taking me seriously! He's going to regret this!'

Because of the short distance, Damian attacked with his shield, which, to no one's surprise, was defended by Issho, but that was extremely what Damian wanted, taking advantage of the size of the shield, Damian uncoupled his arms from it and began a sequence of punches on the shield. shield, causing it to be dented and in addition, the impact of the punches caused the shield and Issho to be thrown backwards

Taking advantage of the distance created, Damian began to make strange movements in Issho's eyes, it even looked like a dance.

Issho:"What are you doing? Dancing?"

'there's something strange about this... How confusing'

Damian: "That's right, you seem confused as to why I'm dancing, so I'll give you a tip... You better be careful!"

Damian continued with his dance and Issho, for some reason that not even he knew, became tense as if he had a gun pointed at his head, so he was watching Damian with great focus, but for a brief moment, Issho blinked...

Issho: "quickly!"

The moment Issho opened his eyes again, Damian was no longer a few meters away from him, but in front of him.

In Damian's view, realizing the difference in their skills, he decided to use his trump card, the 'war dance', but not the same version he used against Mirage two years ago, but a stronger variation, but one that It came with a great price...

Damian, as soon as he arrived in front of Issho, went to do a hook to throw Issho into the air, but Damian stopped for a brief moment, because of the effect of his technique, which made his blood flow get all messed up, making his blood come out of his body. nose at high pressure, because of this price this variation was called 'Dance of Death'

Issho reacting only on instinct, he didn't even see the blood dripping from Damian, he took advantage of Damian stopping, even if just for a moment, he tried to cut Damian's hand, but as soon as Damian's fist connected with Issho's katana...

Issho:'how... How did you not cut it?'

As soon as the two blows collided, Issho was pushed into the air by the force of Damian's punch, who did not suffer any scratches from the cut.

With Issho in the air, Damian followed him, jumping, as soon as he reached Issho, Damian went to throw a punch to throw him back to the ground, but as he was no longer dancing, his speed slowed down a lot, giving Issho the opportunity to counterattack, a cut on the shoulder, which would make Damian's punch lose some power if he cut, which happened, but he was still thrown onto the floor of the ship which collapsed, causing him to fall into the cell area

Issho: 'even using the iron cutting technique... it didn't do much damage, he's worse than a monster, more like a demon... wait... what is this place?'

(Unlike the last cut, in this one, Issho used the technique of cutting iron, a technique used by the most experienced swordsmen of the Grand Line, a skill, which, as the name suggests, gives the ability to cut iron)

After the punch, Damian felt a lot of pain, even though the cut wasn't very deep, still this was the first time he was injured since he was born as Damian, so still in the air, he placed his hands on the cut as he fell. on the floor

Damian: "WHAT A PAIN! FUCK! NOW IT'S BECOMING COOL!"

'This hurts! but why... am I so excited?'

As Damian fell to the ground, he also went to the cell area and down there he found Issho looking around with some blood coming out of his mouth.

While Issho was looking at the most horrible scene he saw, a bunch of malnourished, injured and dead-looking children, that scene left him angry and disgusted, just as he was about to approach the children, Damian arrived

As soon as the two faced each other, Damian started his dance... But Issho had other plans, without holding back he lunged towards Damian, who was taken by surprise, without even having time to react, he was thrown to the ground and her face was cut from the region below the eye, on the cheek, which was shallow and continued up to the ear, which was almost ripped off, leaving her with a cut on her face.

Damian:"OW! that wasn't le-"

Issho: "Why are those children in that state?"

Damian:"children?... Ah! are you talking about the orphans who were sold?"

Issho: "yes those same ones! But why are they like that? They weren't supposed to be like that! This is cruel even for slavers!"

I don't understand anything, Damian turns his head a little and in the opposite direction of Issho, he saw a bunch of children that he had released, when he was behind Mirage and Allana, at the moment he hadn't even paid attention to these children, but he knew Why were they like that?

Damian:"you're right, slavers wouldn't do that, especially when they are just the means of delivery for slave owners and besides, what these guys want most is money, so it doesn't make sense for them to do that, especially with the risk of losing money or even their lives"

Issho:"*confused* what do you mean by that?"

Damian: "tcharara! you really don't know, right? Tcharara, do you happen to know about the orphanages financed by the world government?"

Issho: "What does this have to do with... *Realization* No... This can only be a lie, tell me it's a lie"

Damian: "I could be wrong, it could just be where I came from that it was financed by the world government and I hope I am, after all it must be a shame, you finance a house selling people, whether you know it or not"

As soon as Issho heard Damian's words, he ran to the children and started asking questions, after a while he came back with a conflicted look on his face, as if he didn't know what to do.

Issho:"firstly I apologize for attacking without warning, and thank you for opening my eyes, I can't believe that the world government and the navy didn't do anything to help these children, even though they knew what they were going through, they forced me to "

Damian:"cut that shit! I don't care about that stuff, are we going to fight or what?!"

Even upon hearing this, instead of getting angry with Damian, he gave a smile

Issho: "I was sorry to keep you waiting"

Damian: "You better not hold back this time!"

Issho:"I won't, think of it as a thank you"

Hearing this, Damian seemed to smile like a psychopath and danced again and Issho unsheathed his katana and pointed it forward as if he was going to give an injection.

Issho:"Fuji tora-ryū: Fuji tora no kiba(Wisteria Tiger Style: Tusk of the Wisteria Tiger)

Damian:"Dance of death:tora no shi (death of the tiger)"

As soon as their blows were said, the two immediately disappeared from their locations and appeared moments later with Issho piercing Damian's chest with his katana with his face lowered.

Issho: "really? You gave up?"

Damian: "tchararararara!!!"

Spitting out some blood, Damian lifts his head, now not only his nose was bleeding, but this time also his eyes and ears were gushing blood, but that wasn't the scariest part of this scene, but rather his psychotic smile. Damian, who even in this horrifying situation, seemed to be having fun with it all and the moment Damian's eyes met Issho's, his pupils dilated while a wave of silver energy came out of his body, which made the surroundings stay the same color

when this happened Issho almost passed out, but he managed to bite his own tongue to stay conscious, but in the meantime, Damian started to attack once again, he went to hit Issho, who tried to dodge, but when he was about to move away After the attack, Damian grabbed Issho's arms, making it impossible for him to escape.

As a last attempt at defense, Issho used a martial technique from CP agents called: "Tekai", a technique that leaves the user's body as strong as iron, so after using it he closed his eyes and waited... but nothing happened.

*BOOOOOOOOM!!!!!*

Hearing the bang, Issho opened his eyes, only to see Damian passed out in front of him, still standing, still holding him and still smiling, but what was more worrying was that above his head, were Damian's hands as if he were a statue. of a person praying

After all this fight, Issho didn't know why, but he felt a connection with Damian, at first he thought that Damian was just a crazy kid, who wanted to test how strong he was, without worrying if he would get hurt or No, and at the end of that fight he was sure...

But it wasn't just that, during the fight, Issho realized that Damian, even though he was fighting in a carefree and even fun way, knew what he was doing, the way that even though he didn't know how to use those weapons, he just used them to analyze his opponent's movements, without counting on that dance that increased his speed, this ability is scary in many ways, especially the side effects

And finally Damian's willpower, which during their fight was the thing that impressed him the most, especially in the last blow, after all it takes a lot of willpower to let himself be impaled by a sword, just to make sure he would landing the last blow, which if it weren't for the side effect of the dance, possibly Issho's head would have been blown up like a balloon,

After this fight, Issho understood that Damian was not fighting to test himself, but because he simply likes fighting, the feeling of getting stronger in the face of a near-death situation, that was his personality, someone who will use everything What you have to do to get stronger, without caring about the things around you, for Issho this was something admirable, but stupid, so is this stupidity necessary to have the king's haki? What a st-

Damian:"I lost, right?"

Issho:"Ahhhhhh! What a scare! How long have you been awake?!"

Damian: "it's been a while, since I woke up you've been there thinking about the calf's death"

Issho: "death of the calf?... Never mind, but yes, you lost, so you want to come with me to the navy? Even though you know the navy didn't care about your health, inside the orphanages?

Damian: "a deal is a deal and I told you I don't care about these things, I lost, that means you're stronger than me, so until I get over you or learn everything interesting there, you'll have to deal with me for a long time, tcharara"

Issho:"What about your friends? Will they go with you?"

Damian: "That's their decision, but I think they'll accept it... and speaking of them, will you go after them? I'm not hearing any noise, so they must have already finished fighting"

Issho: "of course, I'll be right back!"

To Be Continued
