One Piece: The Half-Blood Ninja Who Hides on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 619 Despair

"Leo..."

Watching Leo fall down several times and struggle to get back up, Usopp's eyes flickered. This little guy...

"The captain is still waiting for us!" Leo said with difficulty, "So we have to hurry..."

Seeing Leo nearly losing consciousness, Usopp paused for a moment, then said, "Why are you all placing all your hopes on him?"

"Isn't he just a one-legged soldier?"

Usopp couldn't understand why Leo and the others would place all their hopes on that soldier.

Even if he were to regain his human form, he would still just be a man who had lost a leg.

Leo paused for a moment after hearing this, then explained, "Originally, people who were turned into toys would be forced to make a contract with Sugar, becoming laborers who could not resist."

"But the first captain in this country to be turned into a toy escaped because the ability user Sugar forgot about it."

"Born from that one mistake ten years ago, he is the only toy in this country capable of rebelling against the Don Quixote family."

"So for the past ten years, the captain has been fighting alone."

"Without him, the toys would have had to live on in silence, and our Dontata family might have become slaves of the Don Quixote family without even knowing it."

At this point, Leo's tears were already streaming down his face, and his body was trembling uncontrollably.

"Did he tell you the truth?"

"Yes!"

Leo exclaimed excitedly, "If we hadn't heard his shout, this country would have been finished long ago!!!"

"That's why he's worth risking everything for!"

"Although no one remembers him now, he was once a very famous figure in Dressrosa when he was still a human!"

"His name is... Cyrus!!!"

"The strongest gladiator in the history of the Bullfighting Arena, that's our captain!"

And this is one of the reasons why they are willing to risk everything.

"It can be said that Captain Kyros is the strongest being in this country, so he can definitely take down Doflamingo. Is that why you are willing to believe them...?" Usopp muttered.

He now understood why Leo and the others trusted the toy soldier so much; it turned out that the guy had such a past.

If we're talking about the strongest in history... their strength must be incredibly terrifying.

So, it's quite possible that they might actually succeed.

However, Leo and his friends' current situation...

"That's true, but Leo, your bodies..."

"This little injury is nothing," Leo said, panting. "Everyone is working hard to complete Operation SOP, so I can't stop."

After saying that, Leo struggled to get up from Usopp's grasp, turned his head to look at the ground, searching for the chili ball he had just knocked away.

"Found it!"

Leo breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the location of Chili Ball, then jumped down from Usopp's grasp and walked shakily toward it.

He looked like a soldier heading to a battlefield from which there was no return.

"Are you still going?" Usopp asked.

"Of course."

Leo said without turning his head, "If we can't knock Sugar unconscious, the Captain and the adults who were forced into becoming toys won't be able to recover."

"Our mission is to get Sugar to eat this Tata Barbabasco hot sauce!"

"For this... we are willing to give everything!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Leo picked up the chili pepper ball, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.

The other dwarfs also got up at this time, picked up their weapons, and prepared for battle.

Even knowing they would die in this battle, they would not back down in the slightest!

These guys...

Usopp, who had witnessed everyone's actions, felt a sense of awe.

Is this the will of the Tontatta clan?

Leo didn't continue talking to Usopp. Instead, he took the chili pellet and headed towards Sugar's area. Soon, he and his friends blocked Sugar and Trebol from leaving.

granulated sugar:? ? ?

Sugar looked at these little things with a face full of question marks. How dare they come here?

"Still not giving up?" Sugar frowned. "This is so annoying."

Why not just turn all these little things into toys? That way, they'll stop causing trouble for no reason.

"Our battle is not only to rescue all our comrades, but also to save Dressrosa and resurrect the Riku royal family!"

"So... you have to pass out!"

Even if they die in battle, they will knock Sugar unconscious!

"Hahaha~"

"That's really interesting."

Torrepol tilted his head. These guys were actually thinking about such unrealistic things?

Have they not yet come to terms with reality?

Leo and the others didn't care about Torrebol's thoughts, since they had come with the determination to die from the very beginning.

"Let's go!" Leo roared, "Take them down!"

"profound!!!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the little people grabbed their weapons and jumped up, howling as they charged toward Sugar.

"it's useless!"

Trebol, who quickly arrived in front of Sugar, used his Devil Fruit ability to entangle the two boulders and then slammed them down into the mid-air dwarfs.

"bump!"

In just one exchange, many of the little people were sent flying.

Trebol then continued to unleash his Devil Fruit powers, creating a lot of slime that stuck all the dwarfs on the other side to the ground.

After doing this, Torrepol lit a match and cruelly threw it onto the slime.

next moment......

"boom!!"

The explosion rang out again, blasting the stuck little people so hard their eyes rolled back and they screamed as they flew away into the distance.

"Stand up, you little bears!" Sugar shouted. "Kill these insolent little people!"

Upon receiving the order, the teddy bear immediately scrambled to its feet, desperately grabbed its weapon, and charged toward its companion.

And so, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle, each strike showing no mercy.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Usopp clenched his fists and said, "Isn't that enough?!"

Judging from the current situation, it's impossible for them to defeat Torrebol and take Sugar!

Why haven't these guys given up yet?

"These guys are a bunch of idiots!"

"yes."

Nicole Robin laughed and said, "But... I just love this kind of idiot."

"Robin?"

Usopp, who had just noticed Robin's expression, paused for a moment before realizing what she was thinking.

This guy is about to make a move!

With their combined strength, can they really defeat Trebol?

Unfortunately, Nico Robin wasn't thinking about such things; at that moment, all she wanted to do was help these little people.

Then, without hesitation, Nico Robin walked out from around the corner and headed towards the battlefield in the distance.

"Hahaha~"

"It's probably on its last legs by now."

Looking at Leo panting heavily below, Trebol's face was full of smugness.

They're just a bunch of small fry. Do they really think they can defeat him, the highest-ranking member of the Don Quixote family?

Stop joking, okay?!

Just then, Nico Robin launched her attack.

"Twelve blooming flowers!"

"What is it?"

Looking at the arm that had suddenly grown out of his body, Torrebol was immediately filled with questions.

Sugar looked at the arm that had emerged from her body with some panic; it was the first time she had been touched by an enemy attack.

"Leo!"

Nicole Robin shouted, "Now!"

"Robin Lando!"

Seeing Nico Robin suddenly run over, Leo's eyes immediately lit up with excitement. Was Usopp and his crew finally going to make their move?

"Quick, throw the stuff into Sugar's mouth!" Nico Robin shouted.

As she spoke, Nico Robin used her Devil Fruit power to pry open Sugar's mouth, so that Leo could throw something into Sugar's mouth as soon as he ran over.

"Thank you!"

Leo nodded excitedly, then quickly rushed towards Sugar's location.

As long as he can get close to the sugar, he can make the sugar eat this thing!

Perona, who witnessed the entire scene, immediately became excited.

Is she finally going to revert to her human form?

But when she saw Sugar's rapidly moving hand, despair appeared in her eyes.

"It's over..."

Just as this thought crossed her mind, Sugar's hand touched the clone created by Nico Robin.

The next moment...

"Pop~"

"?"

A look of confusion appeared in Nico Robin's eyes as she was turned into a plush toy. Was she... turned into a toy?

She was turned into a toy?

Why?

Why was she turned into a toy?

what?

Why?

Trebol, now free from Nico Robin's Devil Fruit powers, quickly used his slime to grab Leo in mid-air, forcibly imprisoning him there.

"That's enough," Torrebol said coldly.

With that, Torebolo sent Leo flying with a single blow, while the terrifying chili ball crashed to the ground.

"Leo!"

Seeing Leo being knocked away, the little people beside him immediately let out a cry of despair, and were then slashed by the teddy bear.

"Um?"

Usopp, who had witnessed the entire scene, immediately looked puzzled.

"What happened?" Usopp frowned. "Wasn't that a perfect opportunity? Why did it fail?"

Although I don't know why Sugar opened her mouth on her own, it was definitely the best opportunity.

But it still failed in the end?

"Damn it, is this the end?"

Although I don't know why I had the brain fart to come and do this kind of thing with them, the current situation is really terrible!

Damn it, what should I do?

What should I do?!

Meanwhile, on the other side...

While the dwarves were engaged in a fierce battle, Luffy, Xiyan, and Violet had already reached a deeper part of the castle.

Although she hasn't seen Doflamingo yet, Violet estimates it won't be long.

"Is it just ahead?" Luffy asked.

"Soon."

Violet said, "In a few minutes, we'll be on the top floor of the palace, where Doflamingo is."

At that moment, Violet truly felt that she had seen hope.

If these guys can defeat Doflamingo, then this country can see the light again!

Just then, the group noticed what was happening ahead.

"That's... a toy soldier?"

Looking at Cyrus, who was being held in Gladius's hand, west Yan subconsciously frowned and said, "Why has that guy's head gotten so big?"

And it keeps expanding... Is this a Devil Fruit ability?

"It's Gladius!" Violet exclaimed in alarm. "He's a user of the Boom-Boom Fruit; he can make anything he touches explode!"

Upon hearing this, west Yan immediately understood what Cyrus was up to; this guy was about to explode!

Luffy's reaction was even more direct. The moment he heard Violet's words, Luffy vanished from his spot in a flash.

The next moment...

"Rubber Jet Stamp!"

"bump!!!"

An incredibly heavy kick landed on Gladius's stomach, sending him flying into the air and crashing into the distance.

"bump!"

"Who is it?!"

Clutching his stomach, Gladius stood up and said angrily, "How dare you interfere in my affairs? Are you looking for death?!"

'

Unfortunately, Luffy ignored the guy and instead took Kyros in his hand.

"The soldiers," Luffy asked, "Where are Franky and the others?"

"Weren't we together?"

He remembered that Franky should have gone with the toys, so why weren't they together?

"Who are you?"

Cyrus looked at Luffy with a puzzled expression. Who is this guy?

Wait a minute... who is this guy dressed like...?

"Straw Hat Boy, there's no time for idle chatter now," Violet said quickly. "Let's go."

Staying here will only lead to being besieged by the Don Quixote family's leaders, so we must get up there quickly.

"They actually ignored me..."

'

Gladius was initially angry, but then he clearly saw the appearance of the people in the distance.

"Straw Hat Boy, Sunglasses Guy, and... Violet?"

The moment Gladius saw Violet's face clearly, his rage surged to its limit, his killing intent reaching its peak.

They also released it without any hesitation.

"How dare you betray the young master!" Gladius roared. "Violet, you damned traitor!"

"I'm going to kill you!"

He hates traitors like this the most, so today he must kill this damned woman!

"Alright, bring it on!"

After handing the toy soldier to Xiyan, Luffy assumed a fighting stance, clearly intending to take down Doflamingo before going to beat him up.

"Wait a minute!" Violet quickly grabbed Luffy and said, "Don't stay here and fight him, let's go!"

"What's wrong?"

Luffy was completely bewildered by Violet's abduction. Shouldn't he have dealt with this enemy first before heading up to cause trouble for Doflamingo?

What does it mean to just walk straight away?
