Big brother, I want to become the strongest pirate in the world!

"I'll tell you when we get back... I need to think about things first."

Chapter 022 Other Battle Situations

Monet's eyes flashed the moment Kazan and Don Quixote shifted their focus.

"almost."

Monet, hidden in the shadows in the air, watched the tall figure below and finally couldn't contain himself any longer. He placed the Devil Fruit on the shelf behind him and then rushed into the group of minions.

"Just as I said, Diamanti is modest on the surface, but he's actually quite arrogant."

Monet watched the figure rushing out from mid-air with great interest, then quietly and swiftly flew down from the air to the Devil Fruits on the shelf below.

"Whether you are overconfident or not."

"It's still to make it easier to use the Devil Fruit's power!"

"In short, you were careless!"

Ignoring the gunfire and slashing of Don Quixote's henchmen around the shelf, Monet went straight for the Devil Fruit.

She let the bullets and slashes fall on her body, the wounds all turned to white snow, and all the damage was rendered ineffective.

"Lord Diamanti!"

"He's a Logia-type Devil Fruit user!"

"Why would someone like this appear in Beihai...?"

"It was actually a little girl who ate a Logia-type... "

The henchmen used every trick in the book, baring their teeth and brandishing their claws, but could only watch as Monet took the fruit away.

However, their shouts attracted Diamanti, who was cutting vegetables.

"Nature type! Tsk... Serpent Sword"

Diamanti frowned, kicked aside the pirate henchmen blocking his way, and ran back quickly, while his longsword was swung like a whip at Monet.

Is it a sword that combines Devil Fruit power with Armament Haki?

Monet glanced at the black light clinging to the longsword, frowned, and swung his hands.

Frozen snow.

Diamanti looked at the oncoming white torrent and lifted his steel cloak to shield himself.

Three seconds later, the blizzard subsided, and Diamanti threw off his cloak, which had been frozen into ice, and looked at the white figure that had taken off into the sky with the Devil Fruit.

Anger began to rise within him.

...His Devil Fruit was stolen again?

Before his anger could fully flare up, Diamanti saw a massive hailstone mass descending from the sky.

The funeral will be held in half a month.

This is Diamante's only move that doesn't rely on the power of the Flutter-Flutter Fruit; it's purely a sword technique.

Diamanti frowned and swung his sword upwards, unleashing a massive wave of sword energy that shattered the hailstones above his head. The sword energy then pierced through the hailstones and struck Monet, cleaving him in two.

Unfortunately, this sword energy was child's play for Monet, who was a nature-type cultivator.

Aside from slightly expending Monet's energy, it doesn't cause her any harm.

Diamanti ignored the damage and destruction the hail had caused to everyone and everything around him; he was now oblivious to it all, his eyes fixed only on the figure flying through the air.

"That direction? Dover!"

Diamante watched the snow-white figure fly towards Doflamingo's direction, then rushed out and ran in the same direction.

Diamante knew Doflamingo's level. If it were a Logia-type Devil Fruit user who couldn't fly, it wouldn't be a problem, as Doflamingo could still attack the opponent. But if it were a Logia-type Devil Fruit user who could fly, then it would be troublesome.

He knew very well that Doflamingo's Armament Haki was not yet at the level where he could imbue the flying string with Armament Haki.

The Donquixote Family's executives have an unusual level of confidence in Doflamingo.

Diamante believed that even against a Logia-type Devil Fruit user like Doflamingo who could fly, he would be invincible, but he would definitely be significantly affected during the battle.

He needed to hurry over there and restrain that woman, so she wouldn't interfere with Dover's battle!

Diamanti kept accelerating, moving towards another battlefield at full speed, but the distance between him and the snow woman continued to widen.

When he arrived, the other party was nowhere to be seen, leaving only Doflamingo staring blankly at the blood-red armored head in mid-air.

"Dover, how are you? Are you hurt?"

Diamante panicked a little. He thought it was because he had sent that snow woman to cause trouble that Doflamingo was distracted and was able to be ambushed by the thief while dealing with two people at the same time.

However, seeing that Doflamingo had no wounds on his abdomen, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his belief that Doflamingo could become king became even stronger.

……

The entrance to the naval branch.

Bon Clay had been fighting Pica for about fifteen minutes, shifting the battlefield as they fought, eventually ending up at the entrance of the naval branch.

The enraged Pica and the fervent Bon Clay, who sought to prove his own path, were locked in a duel to prove their own doctrines, disregarding everything around them.

Bon Clay's hairy legs were exceptionally hardened by Kazan's steel body, and any rock that hit Pikachu's legs would shatter.

Although Pica no longer possessed the enormous giant body and skillful control over rocky terrain that she would have eighteen years later, she managed to fight Bon Clay to a standstill thanks to her infinitely regenerative rock giant shell and extraordinary stamina.

Neither of them could gain the upper hand; either Bon Clay's legs would give out first, or Pica's stamina would be completely depleted.

Otherwise, this battle will never end.

but!

Unlike Pica, who had lost his mind, Fun Clay now possessed his own reason!

In his heart, loyalty to his family is more important than the path of the human-demon!

and so……

"Army attack!"

At the command of the Navy branch lieutenant colonel, who was actually Fung Clay, the thousands of Navy personnel who had been temporarily prepared rushed towards Pica in the next moment!

In the chaos, Bon Clay seized the opportunity to use the Imitation Fruit to transform into a goose and swaggered away.

After walking into the shadows, he immediately reverted to his original form and pulled a map out of his pocket.

There's a red marker above; that's the location of the warship they're looking for!

After taking a second look, Feng Kelei instantly transformed into an eagle and swiftly flew towards the location he remembered.

……

"That guy is incredibly strong!"

Bellamy chased after the white shadow that was almost out of sight in the air, frantically through the streets.

He saw it!

He saw it from a corner of the battlefield.

A battle between two men.

"That strongest guy in the West Blue... he actually managed to hurt Doflamingo!"

Bellamy's remaining eyes were filled with fanaticism and hatred.

His fervor stemmed from finding new hope!

The hatred stemmed from the murder of his childhood friends! Murdered by people he once admired!

Bellamy has made up his mind that no matter what, no matter the cost, he will join that man's ranks. He must become stronger and take revenge on Doflamingo!

"Just wait... I'm going to kill every single one of your family members! Every single one of them."

Chapter 023 My Ship Only Has Family

"Brother! Look at that warship down there!"

"Ah... I see. It seems to be going quite smoothly on Xiao Feng's end. Let's go down."

On the harbor of Harvest Island, Kazan looked down and saw a warship sailing by. The figure on the deck was very conspicuously waving in their direction.

"Yo~~~ Kazan, Monet~ It looks like you did a great job."

"Hmph, nonsense. How could the strongest in the future fail? Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and set sail. We still have a Devil Fruit in our hands. We don't want to be attacked by the Navy and pirates at the same time."

"You'll just order me around..."

Despite his grumbling, Foncray walked earnestly toward the ship's wheel.

"Wait! Where's the sugar?"

"……hiss!!!"

"You wouldn't..."

"Sugar went to pee, I don't know if she'll wet her pants if no one helps her, Monet-chan, why don't you go check on her?"

"Damn, that scared me."

Kazan wiped away a bead of cold sweat; his heart pounding so hard it nearly turned him into a demon.

"Brother... are we going to the West Sea next?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, yes, you'll go find a sister who's the same age as you, and then you'll have to compare who's older."

"Brother, before that... could you take Sugar and me back to where we were born? Please..."

"Don't be so polite when talking to your family. No matter how unreasonable your request is, I will grant it."

Kazan flicked Monet's forehead, interrupting her.

"whee."

"The place you were born in was..."
