[Chapter Size: 1700 Words.]
Third Person POV
Jaya, First Half of Grandline.
...
...
Luffy continued walking ahead of everyone as his cape fluttered in the wind. Enel also appeared by his side, a bit battered from the fight with the holy knight, but Luffy led the way, passing through the entire crowd.
Jaya is known to be a lawless island, where criminals of various kinds gather. The island is always full of fights and parties causing the death of one here and there, however, today was different. Everyone was silent, watching a new figure emerge in this already chaotic field.
The star of the moment from the first half of the Grand Line, the pirate with a bounty of half a billion berries after destroying various marine bases in the East Blue, revealed to be the grandson of Garp, the marine hero, and the son of Monkey D. Dragon, the world's worst criminal, defeating 2 Shichibukai and a vice-admiral, causing chaos in Alabasta and disappearing for 2 weeks, was in that town walking calmly towards where Jack, the drought, and Doflamingo, another Shichibukai, were.
Everyone was silent at that moment, nobody could breathe while the only sound in the place was of Luffy walking to the center of the place without hesitation, everyone was wondering what would happen.
"Fufufufu. Look who showed up, we were going after you, Straw Hat." Doflamingo said, laughing excitedly.
"..." Jack just stayed silent watching the pirate approaching. Page One, at his side, had a serious look, he believed that Kaido's missions are absolute, and he would do it even if he had to destroy the whole town.
Luffy continued walking until he approached them. Enel had arrogance on his side as always and was not intimidated by the size of Jack, and even stared them down like mere ants.
"Hey, he's not stopping..."
"It's true...what does he plan?"
People murmured as Luffy continued walking forward without stopping as they expected before any fight, and he kept approaching almost sticking to them.
"He... they are passing by them!"
"He disdains them that much?"
"So this is the arrogance of the half-million pirate?"
Luffy had passed by a stunned Jack and Doflamingo while continuing on his way, he was looking at a person in the crowd.
"Hm? Zehahahaha. Why do I think this supernova is coming towards me?" A dark-skinned man in the crowd laughed with iconic people by his side.
"You! How dare you disrespect Doflamingo-Sama!" Bellamy emerged from the crowd, he was battered after Kid beat him, but even so, he was enraged by his young master being disrespected in that way by the pirate.
"Hm? Doflamingo? He's just a dog of Kaido, I'm not interested in that kind of animal right now, there are more interesting people here at the moment." Luffy commented, shrugging.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Everyone without exception opened their mouths and eyes wide at Luffy's comment, while Doflamingo himself had a vein in his forehead almost bursting in anger.
"Mr. Jack... does Mr. Doflamingo have a dog zoan or something?" Page One asked a bit more timidly to Jack innocently.
"Straw Hat..." Hearing this was the last straw for Doflamingo, he launched two threads with his fingers towards Luffy, who in turn, pointed his arm back and fired two finger shots with his hand in the shape of a pistol, destroying and burning Doflamingo's attack.
"I'm here to talk to someone here, take care of you later, dog." Luffy said without turning around as he continued to walk forward, the crowd was even more stunned.
"It seems this is the first time we've met, Teach, or should I say Blackbeard." Luffy looked at the man in front of him with interest.
"Zehahahahaha. You know me? Pirate Monkey D. Luffy." Teach laughed and looked with interest at Luffy.
"I do know you, my brother Ace, is looking for you, it's a pity he wants to hunt you down alone, otherwise, you wouldn't end up well." Luffy said and continued. "But still, if you want to fight me, you can come, however, I might not hold back and end up leaving Ace without his prey." Luffy commented, looking at the man.
"You're the commander's brother? Zehahahaha. No, I don't want to fight you. I know I'm not ready for that." Teach had to admit, he wasn't foolish, he couldn't face this pirate at his current level.
"That's good because I still want compensation." Luffy spoke unabashedly, taking out his sword and a devil fruit. Teach frowned at this gesture, and Luffy continued before the other could ask what that meant.
"Use your darkness and transfer the fruit's power to the sword, that's all I ask." Luffy said, leaving everyone even more stunned. Nobody understood what he meant by that, Teach looked for a moment with dark eyes, "How do you know about this...?" Luffy just shrugged. "I know many things, but one reason you'll end up dying if we fight now, so I'm giving you a choice." Luffy spoke, maintaining his gaze with a small smile, he would beat Teach if necessary, but he wanted to put that fruit in Ace.
Teach clicked his tongue and ended up doing it. Everyone was surprised when the black hand emerged, and Teach didn't even need to grab the items to absorb in that direction, sucking the sword and fruit into his hand. 10 seconds later, the sword returned with a dried fruit falling to the ground.
"Here..." Teach said frustrated, but he still did it, if it meant not facing Monkey D. Luffy right now.
"Thank you, I knew I could count on you, Teach..." He said, looking at the sword with satisfaction, feeling the power emanating from it.
'Now Ace looks like a weapon above all other supreme grade ones.' Luffy thought, his attention returned to Teach with a confident tone. "Teach, I have faith in almost no pirate here, but in you, I expect a challenge at the top, you have the potential to be at the top of this world, and I hope to meet you there for a challenge in my journey." Luffy said, he always saw Teach as a challenge he would face, the sea would be more interesting that way.
"Hm?! Well... that's unexpected... Zehahahahaha!" Teach seemed to change his mood with Luffy's words as his companions just looked on at the exchange between the two like the whole town.
"I will surely reach the top, nothing can stop me, Zehahahahahaha!" Teach continued declaring, now loudly for the entire town, and many began to wonder who this man was, unknown to all, but gaining the recognition from Monkey D. Luffy to be at the top of the sea, while he ignored Jack and Doflamingo just to talk to this man and say those words.
"People's dreams never end!!!" Teach declared at the end.
Luffy smiled and left Teach behind, turning towards Jack and Doflamingo who were staring at him with intense eyes. Luffy sheathed Ace again and walked in their direction, Enel was still by his side, just accompanying Luffy.
"It's true, people's dreams never end!" Luffy also declared loudly to the entire crowd with open arms and faced his opponents, "And if people's dreams never end... why should I stop?" Luffy finished as purple flames began to burst from his body.
The whole place fell silent once again, watching this human torch facing two notorious pirates of the new world, while his flames indicated he was ready to fight. Enel didn't stay behind, making sparks flying from his body, he faced his opponents, "Is it against these inferiors that we must fight?" He asked with disdain.
"What's going to happen... One is fire and the other lightning?"
"This island won't be safe for us..."
As people murmured, Jack stepped forward, cracking the ground as he stared at the flickering flames. "Monkey D. Luffy, where is Lady Yamato?" Jack asked loudly, and everyone wondered why he would be asking about the vice-captain of the Straw Hats.
"You're here for her, right? Kaido sent you, which makes a lot of sense..." Luffy smiled and continued. "But tell Kaido that Yamato isn't his property, she's my woman now, so tell my father-in-law I won't even invite him to the wedding." Luffy declared.
As Luffy proclaimed his final words, a shockwave ran through the crowd, silencing the conversations and fixing all eyes on him. First understanding that this Yamato, the vice-captain with a bounty of 150 million berries is actually Kaido's daughter, and Monkey D. Luffy called Kaido, the strongest creature in the world, father-in-law. Luffy's statement seemed not just a direct affront to the powerful adversaries in front of him but a declaration of war against a Yonkou himself.
Jack, known for his brutality and unwavering loyalty to Kaido, narrowed his eyes, surprised by the half-billion pirate's audacity. His normally relentless demeanor gave way to furious eyes, "Miss Yamato, your woman...?" Jack murmured to himself.
Doflamingo, on the other hand, seemed surprised by this, now not knowing whether it was because Kaido had a daughter or because Luffy declared the same as his woman, he still did not know the real reason Jack was looking for the crew of the Straw Hat pirates, but now he understood the reason beyond being after the mythical zoan users.
Enel, standing beside Luffy, looked around with disdain, his mocking expression as always. "These mortals... so fragile in their convictions," he commented.
The crowd was divided between fear and admiration. Some started what they had heard, if that was true, Monkey D. Luffy had become Kaido's son-in-law, and he even called the Yonkou father-in-law, something they could never imagine hearing in their lives, but Monkey D. Luffy had declared it, even earning the respect of everyone with the audacity to steal a daughter from one of the world's four greatest pirates.
"Zehahahaha! This guy is really interesting! I'll be looking forward to the day our paths cross again," Teach declared, his laughter echoing throughout the place.
After this declaration, the fight was on the verge of starting, Jack would never let Luffy go after those words, meanwhile, Luffy was ready to throw that mammoth into the sea.
