A drop of water hit the ground leaving behind a wet spot on a otherwise dry dirt that hadn't tasted water for two seasons now, as unnatural as it may be for an island located on the New World.

  Too unnatural even by his standards, judging by the dried up flora and fauna he may be correct on his deduction.

  One of the Cocksuckers has been here and he already knows who to be exact.

  “Greenbull…” He snarled, a cold fury brewing in his soul at the catastrophic destruction caused on a once verdant island who imported one of the most important products out in the world…wheat, the foundation of the civilizations.

  He touched the ground with his fingers and traced the drying with his electromagnetic control by causing small vibration via precise frequency manipulation.

  Devil fruits were magical in nature, they fit into two categories: general manipulation and molecular control if you were versed enough with the inner workings of the universe.

  This is how he knew that this dry island isn't a result of nature but a devil fruit power, it has sucked the very “moisture” and left behind an unnaturally stable ground when it should have been overflowing with micro cracks and erosion by now.

  It must be related to the new tax the Nobles are trying to implement, something about sharing a percentage amongst the higher ranking Kingdoms “for future projects”.

  “What do you think, boss, can you undo the damage?” Klaus asked as he watched him gaze at the horizont with a focused look.

  “Yes but first I must turn this whole place into a swamp and allow it to seep into the rest of the island slowly. We don't want to cause a flood now do we?” He concentrated and called forth a thick black cloud by using his fruit’s ability as a medium.

  Clouds began appearing out of nowhere as his ability went to work, crackling sounds filled the area as a result of his own ability who he commanded to strike towards himself which wouldn't damage anything but still charge the area with hot molecules that would as result keep the rain from stopping.

  “We are done here, tell the men to collect the reward and lets go. We make way for Dressrosa, It has been two whole years.” He smiled, he was not going to miss the beginning of Ragnarok.

  .

  The travel towards their destination was uneventful thanks to the eternal pose he had bought in the black market. They were making their way towards the spider’s nest because he had read the news and watched the livestream conducted by the one and only Cesar clown.

  ‘Some things don't change, fate decreed The Kozuki and The incarnation of Nika to meet once more and nothing would change that from happening.’ He thought, laying down on a beach chair that seemed quite out of place on the warship he had “acquired” and then repainted and did some cosmetic changes.

  I suppose Doflamingo’s fate was set in stone even though I did try to Kill him back then.

  Not sure how but he survived, scorched and bloodied but survived he did even though that attack should have literally destroyed his nervous system in the process.

  ‘I did see a pandaman amongst the marines..’ He could swear that guy was staring holes in his skull back then, bet he didn't expect Ace actually dipping from marineford without being donut-ed in the process and leaving Luffy scarred and with a mind breaking PTSD.

  I wonder what he is planning now that I literally broke his carefully laid plan? Gotta keep my eyes open now even though I have made progress with Haki Infusion and the six powers.

  ‘Better not give the bad guys power ups Pandaman or I will make sure the protagonist awakens sooner than he is supposed to~!’ He snickered conspiratorially, a hand sneaking into his inner vest pocket and pulling out a notebook he had wroten with all the most important subjects meant for a last resort or the Endgame.

  I.Q Plant, Daft Green, the seed of Lily Flower amongst the List of plants I have acquired these past two years are some of the Few I am Most well versed in. I have done my own research on them and found some interesting facts that even the person who had first noticed their abnormal effects couldn't have hoped to learn without the out of the world knowledge I hold.

  ‘The first is Booster Drug, which can cause temporary growth if ingested in its base form but if you were to brew it into a chemical concoction then you can concentrate its effect in any way you desire, be it genetic evolution by adding specific ingredients or…Force your Body and mind to cause a premature awakening if you have a devil Fruit that is.’ He grimaced at the last part as it brought up the visage of Monster Point Chopper who would have brought the entire Island of Justice down if he had been slightly more stronger at that time, add the rage effect of the Zoan and desire for destruction of the beast within multiply it with the Hunger of Man and you may have an idea what sort of abomination Chopper would have become had he not been focused on killing that hair manipulating freak.

  “I wonder how it would affect a logia?” His musing was interrupted by one of his men who came running.

  “Boss we are three hours away from Dressrosa, Vice chairman Klaus had sent forward his paper Bird to scout and says we stay away from island for now since there is a large marine presence and word had reached us there is an actual Admiral present as a result of the Straw hat and Trafalgar law’s alliance!” The Man stated and bowed his head before leaving.

  ‘Kuzan has left the Marines this time as well huh, Fujitora’s aura may be masked but his presence amongst the normal humans can't be hidden which is amusing when he thinks he can hide behind such a half-assed persona by acting as a mere Blind fool gambling away his berries.’ He could hear the voices of nearly all thirty thousand present normal humans and the two thousand slightly stronger marines and the few individuals who stand out in the island.

  The only one missing is the presence of the Mc and his band of lunatics.

  ‘Speaking of which…that voice in the distance sounds familiar.’ He did the equivalent of expanding his frequency zone and pushed further until he heard it more clearly.

  “Get closer to the island but stay closer to the boulder walls to hide from the marines until chaos begins…should be like six hours to eight max.” Following his command the ship ponderously made way towards the southeast side of the Island where they would anchor and climb the wall to watch for the chaos.

  It is better to enjoy something with your own two eyes than rely on extra-senses that need you to be concentrated and to keep a calm mind. What was the point of watching something for pure enjoyment when you have to also keep a tight leash over emotions and Spiritual stability?

  Just like that they arrived and through their devil fruit powers and technological marvels he had procured/stolen/created all of his one hundred men and women he had recruited and earned their loyalty by doing various good deeds were able to climb up and stand by his side while waiting for the show.

  It didn't take too long for an explosion to go off, twenty minutes on the island and the straw hat’s very presence caused chaos. Two whole different groups were locked in a shadow war that would decide the winner of the new world order–I mean the local government's next monarch since reverie was still two weeks away from happening if his sources were correct.

  “Sir… when you said the straw hats were force multipliers you didn't say on which side.” One of his lieutenants stated completely dumbstruck at the sheer fuckery he was seeing through binoculars.

  The Man was a Zoan user he was cultivating, a Rare flier type at that with a ability to reach speeds that would cause sonic booms, the Golden Eagle Zoan characterized as a top tier predatory bird back in his home universe that was so widespread that it was one of most well known eagles in the world!

  ‘Which is how I know all the strong points and weaknesses of the zoan fruit. Strong limbs, fast reaction speed, very Fast and agile with very strong beak and claws for catching prey. When you apply the bullshit configuration of the devil fruit abilities it becomes one of the best combat oriented Devil fruit out there!’ He congratulated himself for acquiring this fruit from the very warship he had Repurposed when he vaporized all the world government agents to nothing.

  Each of his eight lieutenants will have such fruit abilities, it will take some time and mind breaking experiences but all of them will Awaken their powers by the time the World War is underway judging by the mastery progress of the giant-blooded man he had been observing and cataloguing all the small hints of the devil fruit Mastery.

  Cheating is allowed if it doesn't cause any damage, the other players have had time to strengthen themselves and their underlings so I must play it smart and make the house lose.

  “Boss the Green-haired swordsman is clashing against the admiral!” Exclaimed Marina in awe.

  “Fujitora is surprised by his strength as you are Marina, judging by that fluctuating aura he may as well be straining to match Zoro…” he raised an eyebrow at the weak presence the Admiral had, it was as if someone had strangled his Ambition and Will until all that remains is a pale shadow.

  He was listening to the conversation as well for context, he has found many secrets by a slip up from his enemies. A proclamation of pride, a declaration of future actions. All of those give insight on the inner character that hides below the surface.

  “Let us continue this duel another time.” The Admiral stated softly and used his ability to bring down a meteor on the gravity locked Swordsman.

  “Well we have some time to pass until things pick up, which one of you has made progress with the six arts?” He noted two of his underlings reply with [shave] one of the easiest to learn and most versatile as well if you mastered enough.

  “Boss, lately I have been feeling an itch whenever I use my Full transformation. It's like something tapping at the back of my skull.”

  That…is unusual. That's either a warning of something about to happen or your ability about to break through into the next level just like what happened with me when I did that full Elemental transformation that causes me to become something ‘indescribable’ by haki which was the only hint I got before I remembered certain information.

  This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

  Logias are strange, they act as if they are awakened yet if you don't know for certain what your limit is you tend to become an ego-driven moron who ends up getting killed or worse…lose your Will.

  “You must have hit the ceiling of your ability. Zoans are the most clear-cut abilities to have which is why most fail to realize how easy it is to push the limits of your devil fruits. Remember how you didn't know you could make your feathers become as deadly as swords? Or your claws allowing yourself to kick so hard as to crack the ground?” Marius pulled himself back to reality and pushed his wandering thoughts into his to-do list for later.

  “It is time for you to tap into the very bedrock of your devil fruit’s ability, you must align your desires with the fruit to push further into the untamed lands of your gift.”

  I wonder how sabo reacted in this Timeline. There is no devil fruit for him to grab nor inherited will from a dead brother…the odds of him dying just rose exponentially when Ace survived.

  If I am correct, Inherited Will is what the main core of one piece is. It makes a difference the more important said Will is and the one with the most important Will currently is…

  “DOFLAMINGO!!!” Monkey D. Luffy roared like a Wrathful God of Destruction which echoed all over the active Island like the drums of liberation to every living and unliving creature in the island.

  He felt the Conqueror’s haki vibrate reality itself with the sheer intent put into it, he had impressions of white and yellow and a haunting tune that hide an unsettling Drive with its joyous melody.

  “The white warrior.” I whispered as I stood up and began levitating in the air.

  “Oi oi what was that haki?! It nearly crushed me with that deadly intent!” One of his underlings murmured shaken, he may be of better quality then the marine captains but he was still not strong enough to clash with a Nearly Emperor Level individual capable of reshaping the heavens with his will alone.

  “Stay here and observe the situation in case unseen variables appear.” Lightning crackled as he went fully into his elemental state which caused sparks of Thunder to appear when he spoke.

  He could never get used to the feeling of being charged up, every cell and molecule in his body sang a tune only he could hear, his sight became sharp just as his mind began processing information at speeds that would cause any human brain to go sploof from overheating but to him?

  “I am thunder and Lightning…” I said to myself to remind my all-encompassing being that My Own Ego hasn't dispersed and become nothing but fuel for the ascendant level of power I was wielding right now.

  “Let the heavens Rumble and remind the blasphemer that His judgement has come!” If you think logias are easier to control than other fruits then you clearly have no idea how Oda had crafted his World.

  There was a moment when I was first able to tap into the full capabilities of my rumble fruit that I felt my being nearly become part of the sound of thunder, it was as if I was a mere ant in the face of a God, a genuine one at that, I could swear I saw a titanic creature made of Lightning before I was back in control of my own body that had become Lightning.

  So now I remind myself to not be lost into the sound but to create my own tune to balance myself…

  “I am The Voice Of Rumble.” I growled as I blasted at the place where the brief flash of white caused a chain reaction I saw in slow motion.

  It was as if something had somehow compressed a billion strings into one and then twisted them into something new.

  Something unbreakable.

  Note to self: I see no weaknesses on the string, Wapometal as well was similar, just as the perpetual gel ball I got from Genot. Paramecias must be studied and catalogued for such miraculous creations.

  “I don't need to destroy it when I can pass through it in my logia form.” I smirked as i phased through and slowed down until i was in the middle point where the strings were connected together.

  Ah i see, there is a medium that keeps this thing from collapsing down the moment doflamingo focuses on something else.

  Indeed there was a nearly invisible string that was connected to the middle point and went down to the ground where doflamingo was having that monologue.

  Watching this scene with your own eyes is like an out of body experience, one hidden Sun god versus a false god or more correctly a demon.

  “You foolish man just sealed your fate.” Marius chuckled with dark amusement as he saw the straw-hat wearing young adult throw away his Woden flip-flops and take that iconic stance that is going to rearrange the entire island guts just as it will do with its tyrant.

  ??Don-do-do-don??

  “Hmm?!” Did I hear it right? Did the monkey's heartbeat sound for just a brief moment like that tune?!

  Red tribalistic haki tattoos appeared over the body of Supernova as he entered a sub-form of his special Zoan fruit, just like the Reindeer could achieve seven forms he can transform into three bastardized awakenings which will deliver him the Mastery required to achieve the Full Zoan awakening during a life or death scenario.

  “GUM-GUM…”

  “I guess I can make it a bit harder too.” I grinned devilishly down from above.

  Zap

  From his pointed finger a burst of lightning flew at speeds that nobody would be able to trace towards the motionless fool who was laughing at the inflated semi-God form who was about to redefine the meaning of “shredding you to pieces” with his ass as a test subject.

  Blurring forward the demi-awakened God-zoan reappeared to the left side of the heavenly demon and punched with the power of a titan.

  “That is quite the force he is generating by multiplying the tension of his muscle fibers in concert with his armament haki.” Marius whistled, even though he could pull similar feats at this point, heck he could do far far worse then just reshape an island with pure physical power at this point but he was impressed at the growth of the kid he helped save his brother two years ago.

  ‘Now enough enjoying the view, it's time we get work and do some good for these insane bastards.’ He had to keep a certain control for this next move.

  “[Flash cloud].” From his outstretched hand a small gem-like object took shape from the power of lightning he alone commanded.

  “If I had no idea about the true capabilities of devil fruits this ability would have never existed, to think [one hundred million volts] could be charged in one place without risk of causing a wide scale explosion of thermopower…truly mixing my own understanding with the logic of reality bending fuckery of devil fruits is peak.” He giggled at his own joke, on his hands was enough concentrated energy to nuke this entire island into nothing.

  His empty hand sneaked into an inside pocket in trousers and retrieved a new type of transponder snail he had procured from a certain someone. The small snail seemed to be sleeping just as he had requested him to be designed because as long as a creature isn't interfering with his logia field he can transform into his element without fearing the instant death of what he had with himself but there was a catch.

  He opened a small compartment on the snail's shell and inserted the theoretical nuke inside and closed it. Light blue lines and lightning symbols appeared on the shell as if some biomechanical flip was switched on.

  “Wake up Turbo, I need your help buddy.” He called out loudly for the first time since he came to this Island.

  The snail's eyes opened slowly just as a mini-Copter appeared from the top of the shell where an unmistakable metal piece had been fused on the shell carefully without harming the delicate creature in the process.

  Each time you transform into that form it feels like I am inside a raging storm and it stresses me to the point where I have to focus to stay unconscious Marius. The snail-Turbo stated irritatedly through that strange telepathic power all the transponder snails had.

  “Don't blame me buddy I gave you the choice of staying back at the base and act as a nexus transponder matrix yet you choose to come along even though you still aren't used to my invulnerability state of being like Skyros is.” I replied, pointing out the hypocrisy in his words.

  …You asshole, why do you bring him up everytime I decide on something?! “Skyros this and Skyros that” what about my contribution?!The snail snarled angrily at him for pointing out the hypocrisy.

  “C'mon Turbo you know I didn't mean anything bad, I was just pointing out that complaining about being stressed isn't my fault in the first place.” He rolled his eyes at the little angry adolescent snail.

  Hmph, Big Bro Skyros may be your first companion but I am still the only one who can actually read past telepathic-waves and still make sense of them! While he is…more gifted on a wide-scale control management and direction Nexuses he still needs someone to read all the communications he stores in his macro-consciousness! The snail declared pridefully, he knew how capable he was and was going to flaunt it.

  “Alright alright, You know what to do, stay within the confines of the white cloud and project the power I stored in you to help with the strain on your telepathic power.” He gave up on humbling the snail since it would take hours and a lot of arguing just to knock him a peg down let alone tame the little adolescent brat's pride to a manageable level.

  Hn, which keyword should I search for this time? Noble, gorosei, revolutionaries? Or the four emperors since that is what you have been looking in all those islands we found those big stone cubes.The snail's eye color changed from black to blue as the lights and symbols shone even more brightly as a white cloud was generated around the snail by a biomechanical process that Vegapunk had found in his “latest” breakthrough.

  “Kaido, Orochi, weapon shipment, devil fruit, Joyboy, Cesar clown, green blood, Queen the plague, Jack the drought…and Slaves. I want everything on these words Turbo. Do not miss one, tracking isn't a problem since…” He listed all the important names on his mind which the snail’s photographic memory would sear in his memory.

  “I will actively dispose of any black-blocker who may be in the area for you to act without being hindered.”

  So this time I can go at my max 15.000 tws/min widescale? The snail asked hungrily, the glow in his eyestalks became even more bright.

  .

  O. O. O.

  Doflamingo was not having a good time, the supernova brat who two years prior could barely beat that fatass trash moria was now throwing around island-breaking punches, each hit was devastating if he did not time his haki armor perfectly to curb some of the damage being dealt.

  ‘Damn You! Shitty rubber brat.’ He cursed inwardly, his facade still up even though by now it did not matter to do so.

  Just as he dodged the stretching limb, his haki warned him of another flanking his left then his right, below, above.

  From all three dimensions attacks kept coming until his Haki was overwhelmed and a flying punch from forward crashed on his face and sent him flying through a nearby building and into the foundation of his castle.

  He did not see a brief burst of lightning creep on him until it was too late and he was electrocuted by a few thousands volts of electricity.

  “Guh?!w-where–” his question went unanswered as a giant punch thrice his size punched him into the ground and deeper and deeper.

  Another punch came crashing down and this time…

  It closed the cover of Doflamingo's Tyranny forevermore as consciousness slipped from him.

  O. O. O

  A voice became quiet from where the fighting was taking place.

  Zoro's struggle came to a halt as the bird cage stopped closing in, a light bulb lit up on his head as his sharp mind connected the dots of what may happen next.

  His single eye turned sharply towards the giant back of the admiral and he signaled his Allies to be prepared for anything.

  “Oi kinemon.” He hissed sharply towards the stupid samurai who had left himself open for an unexpected attack from the nearby admiral.

  The samurai in question turned his head towards him questioningly before a pointed look from him had the samurai turn his head at the terrifyingly big Human whose sword was almost his size.

  As expected he caught up quickly and subtly backed away as well as pulling his companion with him.

  “What is our next course of action, Zoro-dono?” The samurai-in-hiding whispered.

  Zoro swept his gaze around, there were a lot of marines present but they were all low-level combatants that could be–

  “Well well well…what do we have here?” A voice boomed from above.

  A man stood there with his arms closed and staring down at them-no staring at the Admiral and the Marines with murderous intent.

  “Zoro-dono do you perhaps know who that Man is? His aura is…something else.” Kinemon felt a shiver run down his spine as an unwanted memory from the past came to the surface of his mind.

  The Man flying in the Air had an Aura comparable to Kaido, He was releasing so much intent that black crackles of Haki were appearing all over him.

  “Kinemon whatever you do from now on do not absolutely get that Guy's attention.” Zoro stated with an uncharacteristic foreboding tone.”He is the Man who brought the World government to heel two years ago by himself. His bounty is in the top tiers of this World, a 3.8 billion berry starting bounty.”

  Kinemon had not known the green haired man for too long but he got the sense that he did not praise others without a reason. Especially fellow rivals that may be interested in the goals of his captain.

  “I presume it's not just because he can use Haki or for that oppressive presence he has, correct?” Kinemon asked carefully, he could swear he saw a flash of something appear and disappear just as quickly as it appeared.

  Before Zoro could answer a burst of lightning hit the Admiral with full intent to kill, it reminded him of Enel. That long eared bastard Luffy beat the crap out of. Could he…

  “Lord of Lightning-dono, why is it that you are here amidst the chaos of three different factions Fighting for their goals?” Admiral Fujitora asked, now exuding that presence which only the Admirals had.

  “I have my own reasons Fujitora or should I call You Issho? So much has changed yet the eyes of the marines remain closed to the evil deeds they commit for a government that supports those Hideous creatures masquerading as humans. Aokiji ran away after he didn't get his way, Akainu became the Hound of the nobles and kizaru is the ever indecisive fool he is and hides behind a mask of indifference to hid the horror he feels at what he had become…then we have the two of you, Aramaki and Issho two complete opposites.” The Terror of Marineford spat, vitriol filling each word he spoke.

  “My reason is to help the people, as it has been and as it will always be. My promotion is merely something that was required to stabilize the organization after…You had your way and tore down the symbol of The World Government might.”

  Kinemon gulped down, the two Men that were staring down each other could be said to be two forces of nature clashing against each other. One was the Heaven’s single assured strike and the other was the Power of gravity, to pull and push away anything in its path.

  “Do you grasp it now Kinemon?” Zoro said to his ally who seemed to have recognized the dangerous position he was in.

  “I can sense that you are speaking the truth Issho yet the method you have chosen is the incorrect path to do so, to become a lapdog of the nobles is the most heinous crime you could possibly commit…but I shall allow you to leave with your life as long as you do not raise your sword against anyone who fought doflamingo, no doubt you will be called soon to do just that.” Just as he finished speaking the last words a ringing noise was heard from the inner jacket of the Admiral who couldn't hide his surprise at the perfect prediction his theoretical enemy showed.

  “It's akainu by the way, if I were you…I wouldn't reveal everything and keep some stuff to myself just as a precaution.” And with those words the Man turned once more into a small bolt of lightning and zipped around faster than anyone could see.

  “Move along Pirate hunter, take your allies and make your exit before the admiral remembers you are still around.” A voice whispered to zoro ears.

  “Definitely Enel’s powers.” Muttered Zoro concernedly before signaling his allies to follow him.

  O. O. O.

  [Next day - Dressrosa -]

  Twenty five calls between Kaido and Doflamingo in the last week, a once a week report on the needed resources to produce more artificial devil fruits. Blood samples, used devil fruits, animals, large amounts of purified sabaody soap and much much more.

  He re-read it again and wrote down another note until his eyes caught something copied down on a paper meant be thrown into the trash since it was caught by a random inter-telepathic web from beyond the island.

  “This place reminds me of Barcelona and the colosseum in Rome.” He read out loud, a pit opening in his stomach as he continued parsing through the recorded conversation between two? Three? Individuals.

  “Oda took inspiration from that country if I remember correctly, so you may be right. There are at least a couple of world wonders present in this place.”

  “Funny since the culture is completely backwards and the don quixote wasn't a psychopathic megalomaniac rapist tyrant who views humans as trash but here it is the case.”

  And there the Convo is finished, all that was recorded was gibberish that may or may not have been a different language.

  “So I am not the only One here?” I thought to myself out loudly, thoughts running in his head at the devolvement and consequences it may cause to his plans.

  “Boss we are done with the preparation, Shall we move?” One of his lieutenants called from the deck.

  He blinked surprisedly and only now noticed the light shining from the window, his own summoned lightning ring dying away as his awareness came back to him and with a thought he spread his devil fruit enhanced senses to the maximum limit.

  “Shit I have been up all night? Man, I missed my chance at observing how everything would pan out.”
