"It seems like Maou got us a good place to say in… that bastard really doesn't care how much he spends if it's not his money" Yuki was gritting his teeth slightly as he made his way toward Maou along with Kayle and Mashiro and the two of them couldn't help but shoot him weird looks.
However, both Kayle and Yuki suddenly froze in place as they sensed a familiar aura bursting out somewhere on the island so Yuki turned to Kayle and handed him a bag full of money before he said "I will be right back quickly, take care of the rest for me please"
"No problem" Kayle replied with a slight smile and watched as Yuki patted Mashiro and disappeared so he calmly said "Let's go…"
Mashiro shot a look in the direction Yuki disappeared toward before she nodded and followed Kayle...
…
Meanwhile, Yuki and Kayle weren't the only ones that sensed Dariun's tyrannical outburst of aura, Members of the CP9 and the rest of his crew also felt it and they were shocked by it. However, he ordered them to go to Maou's location as planned.
However, the CP9 agents Blueno, Kaku, and Lucci quickly wore masks to hide their identity just in case members of the Galley-la company sees them in action and made their way to Dariun's and Emilia's location to see what was happening, but they were surprised by the weird confrontation…
"These should be the Reapers pirates… As for those two surrounded by them, I believe they are members of Yuki's crew…" Kaku explained calmly regarding the information he gathered so far to Lucci and the latter couldn't help but think 'Such a wild aura, is he a Zoan devil fruit user?'
However, Blueno distracted him from his thoughts when he asked "Should we help them out? There's also an injured civilian"
"No, we will simply observe" Lucci responded and both Kaku and Blueno didn't say anything else afterward. They also understood that this was good a chance to grasp the power of Yuki's crewmates and a bounty of 70 million can't be underestimated…
…
"Us? Die? Little brat, you seem delusional, Do you know who I am?" Reaper, the Captain of the Reaper pirates spoke mockingly to Dariun while grabbing his giant sickles in each hand.
"Me, delusional? You think you can live after trying to harm my friend?" Dariun spoke coldly which earned him a chuckle from Reaper who said "Your friend? Well, you can only blame yourselves for flaunting your wealth when you are this weak"
"Dariun, are you sure you can beat him?" Emilia asked worriedly but Dariun calmly turned around and smiled at her before he said "Yuki tasked me to protect you and Maou, you don't need to worry, I'm pretty strong despite my appearance you know"
'Yuki said this?' Emilia found herself distracted slightly but she noticed a sharp light falling at the back of Dariun's head while he was looking at her and her eyes instantly contracted before she yelled "CAREFUL…"
However, Dariun didn't look around him and simply raised his hands and caught the two sickles creating a small shockwave around him as a show of just how strong that attack was.
"Y-You, how can you block my sickles" Captain Reaper was shocked and his little minions felt the same so they quickly raised their guns again and one of them yelled "Assist the captain!"
However, before they could even attack him, Dariun smiled devilishly, a smile that reminded Emilia of Yuki before he said "Master will be happy once I collect your bounty"
Time seemed to stop as countless bullets were shot at Dariun, but he simply let go of captain Reaper's sickles and said "Wind slicer!"
*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*
Dariun slowly extended his hands as if he was grasping the air before he twisted around quickly, and to the shock of everyone watching, a cyclone made of a very sharp wind suddenly formed around him and it cut all the bullets and pirates including Captain Reaper who was still in disbelief at what just happened…
"This is… Does he train on something similar to our Rokushiki?" Blueno wondered but Lucci instantly disappeared and tried to attack Dariun.
However, Dariun noticed this and easily dodged his attack before he stared at him coldly and said "Do you also have an unfulfilled death wish?"
Blueno and Kaku were surprised by Lucci's reaction but they still decided to assist him and remained in the dark to get the advantage…
"Where did you learn that technique?" Lucci asked coldly but Dariun simply walked past him and examined Reaper's body before he heaved a sigh of relief "This is good, I didn't accidentally kill him… If I recall correctly Yuki said we only get the full bounty if the pirate is alive…"
Lucci frowned slightly and was about to stab Dariun with Shigan for ignoring him but he suddenly got kicked in the butt before he could even react and was sent crashing through multiple buildings…
"Yuki! You are here!" Emilia yelled in surprise as she rushed to Yuki's side while he gently rubbed Dariun's head and said "Good job, after we deliver this idiot's bounty, you can eat all the food you want"
Dariun's cold eyes that were staring in the direction of Lucci and the other members of CP9 were suddenly filled with stars as he started jumping around in excitement like a little kid… As if the ferocious aura from earlier wasn't at all coming from him…
"Let's go Emilia, we need to deliver this guy to the marines, oh and Dariun, go carry that injured guy" Yuki said with a warm smile before he quickly wrapped Reaper and the other pirates into one big bundle and started dragging them to the marine base in water 7.
"Thank you so much" The wife of the man that got shot as well as his little daughter kept thanking Yuki and Dariun and they ended up following after them while the little girl kept staring at them curiously...
Yuki's group attracted a lot of attention, but no one dared to approach him when they saw his scary-looking devil mask, although it didn't stop them from gossiping
"Oy look, isn't that Captain Reaper?"
"I heard he's been robbing people all around the island to repair his ship"
"I heard it's irreparable, rumors say he encountered Hawk-eye Mihawk… he's lucky that he survived…"
"I'm glad someone finally captured him..."
'Mihawk huh, It seems like they encountered him on his way back from the Warlord meeting... How unlucky... I should give him a visit, I need his help to test a few things…' Yuki ignored the crowd and went directly to a hospital to drop the injured guy before they made their way to the marines who were surprised by their huge catch but after Yuki revealed his true identity, they quickly gave him the bounty of those guys he caught which was 71 million B in total!
With a briefcase of money in his hand, Yuki turned to Emilia and asked "What happened to the 1 million Berry I gave you?"
Emilia's face instantly turned awkward while Dariun instinctively shrunk his body slightly, but Emilia did her best to hide her embarrassment and said "I spent it all, got a problem? Plus you just got 71 million so what's the big deal"
"heh" Yuki suddenly had an evil smirk on his face as he said "The worst thing anyone can do when they are wrong is to dig a deeper hole for themselves instead of apologizing…"
"What? It's just some money, you got plenty of it right?" Emilia responded with a snort and it truly started to get on Yuki's nerves as he stared at her coldly while Dariun stood between them awkwardly like a child who was staring at his parent's fighting…
"Master… It was my fault, she bought me food…" Dariun said with a hesitant voice but Yuki simply stared at him coldly and said "It's not your fault, in fact, she still doesn't realize the true problem with her actions"
"What problem? Hmph, I didn't expect you would be this cheap" Emilia said coldly but she suddenly felt Dariun hugging her and dragging her backward before a strong wind passed in front of her face and created a giant palm-shaped hole in the building beside them…
'Did he just try to slap me?' Emilia's eyes widened in shock...
"M-Master… Please don't hurt her" Dariun said before he stood in front of Emilia to protect her while she kept staring at Yuki in shock… However, the coldness in his green eyes didn't waver at all, and coupled with his devil mask, she couldn't help but think 'What did I expect… he's also a devil just like them'
Suddenly, Emilia felt like Yuki was a completely different man than she thought and she even started disliking him, who would like a cheap person that would go as far as try to hit you, however, his words awakened her from her delusion "You think I care about this money?"
Before he threw the briefcase into the air and tore it into pieces with his sword causing money to start raining everywhere creating chaos as people started rushing to get as much as they could… Meanwhile, Emilia simply stared at this scene frozen in shock before she asked "Then why? What's your problem?"
With a disappointed look on his face, Yuki couldn't help but look down on Emilia and say "I sent Dariun with both you and Maou to protect the two of you because I was worried something might happen to you, I entrusted you with the money to complete the mission because I thought that you were more trustworthy than Maou. I don't mind if you spend some of it, but guess what happened?"
Emilia finally started realizing why Yuki was angry with her, and his next words confirmed it… "You dragged Dariun with you and left Maou behind and then you spent all the money recklessly without even caring about the mission I gave you… But now, when you almost your life, you still don't understand, that the same could have happened to Maou because you left him unprotected in this crazy world!"
'Eh… Indeed, what if Maou got attacked?' Emilia couldn't help but wonder and the image of those giant sickles falling on his with blood splattering all over the place crossed her mind and it made her feel uncomfortable... Not to mention she could see the still clear anger in Yuki's eyes like a burning ethereal flame as he said "The man that sneaked attacked Dariun, Maou encountered one of them, but thankfully he used his wit and didn't cause himself trouble, and even accomplished the mission and found us a good residence, Tsk… Believe it or not, there are some things I value more than money"
"Sorry…" Was all Emilia could say after realizing that she almost killed Maou recklessly, and how she kept misunderstanding Yuki. while the man in question stared at the money he just threw with his heart broken in 71 million pieces...
