Pirate Bloody Hand Mary

Above the moon, Luffy sat down on the ground panting.

Around him, there were scrapped and collapsed robots everywhere.

"Huh, huh..." He wiped away the sweat and looked at the black gas wrapped around his hand in a daze.

"Is this what...uh, armed Haki?"

Luffy waved his hand hesitantly, feeling a surge of heat coming out of his body.

This old man named Tsukimi has great skills. As far as Luffy knows recently, he seems to have a way to monitor all parts of the world.

There were many display screens in the old man's laboratory. Luffy saw Usopp's struggle for survival on the Boeing Islands, Zoro's kendo training next to Hawkeye, and Nami's study on Astronomy Island.

And every time when he asked the old man where this is, the old man would always say: "This is the infinite land, well, a place you don't know."

"Infinite land? We only have the sea there."

At that time, Luffy said quite puzzled, and even scratched his head with a puzzled expression.

Dr. Tsukimi has no intention of explaining this. He just asked Luffy if he had any thoughts about getting stronger.

Of course, Luffy had no objection to this. His friends were also practicing. Since they were all safe, he didn't seem to have any reason to refuse.

After all, if his partners have good opportunities, of course he will not interfere with them. As for becoming the Pirate King, there is no rush.

Luffy looked at his straw hat.

He must at least reach the point where he can face Shanks openly. And for this, strength is essential.

The memory of being slapped by bears on the Shampoo Islands was too painful, and Luffy didn't want to experience such powerlessness again.

"Of course, I want to become stronger!"

Luffy said this without hesitation.

The direct consequence of this sentence was that Luffy, who could only eat one meal a day, fought against a group of robots almost day and night, until the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and his head was swollen.

Not only has his technical strength improved by leaps and bounds, but after months of frantic fighting, his sense of knowledge and weaponry have been stimulated.

Compared to the training that Mary underwent, Luffy encountered much more intense battles, and it was expected that he could awaken these two abilities.

However, without the excitement of the war, Luffy's overlord color was still hidden in his body at this time, with no sign of showing up.

"It can be wrapped with armed colors, which is good."

Dr. Tsukimi smiled and struggled to turn over the ruins, dragging a bunch of instruments that looked quite heavy.

"Oh! Sure enough, this dark thing is armed Haki!"

Luffy looked as if this was the case, then waved his hand and quickly stretched his arm to Dr. Tsukimi's side, helping him hold the instruments.

"Oh, thank you!"

Dr. Tsukimi chuckled and sat next to Luffy.

"Old man Tsukimi, can I eat now? I'm so hungry."

As soon as Luffy relaxed, his whole body shrank, as if he had aged dozens of years in an instant.

Although he had been tortured to death by Dr. Tsukimi in the past few months, Luffy did not have any ill intentions. He was very sensitive, and all he could feel from Dr. Tsukimi was kindness and a kind of...how to put it, it was like he saw flesh.

Therefore, Luffy has no problem with everything Dr. Tsukimi does.

"No, no, no, Luffy, you can't eat today."

Dr. Tsukimi shook his head.

"Huh!? Why!" Luffy suddenly opened his mouth in disappointment.

"We have maintained this fighting method for a long time. If you continue like this, you will not make any progress. Therefore, we are going to change the training method today!"

Dr. Tsukimi's kind smile couldn't hide the excitement in his voice.

"New training method?"

"That's right, it's hard for you to make progress through ordinary combat now. Now, you need to..."

"Feel life and death."

After that, Dr. Tsukimi pulled out a pair of handcuffs from behind him and said to Luffy with a serious face:

"Luffy, I want to warn you, what happens next will be terrible. I will try my best to ensure that you won't die, but... it may be very painful."

"Eh?" Luffy was stunned for a moment, then shook his head nonchalantly: "It's okay, I believe you, old man!"

"Okay, have the courage."

Dr. Tsukimi said as he put the handcuffs on Luffy's hands.

Luffy instantly collapsed and fell to the ground like a puddle of liquid.

"Hey, hey - wait, this thing is in front of the smoke man's stick..."

Luffy looked at the dark blue handcuffs on his hands as if waking up from a dream.

"I see, I just said why does it look so familiar? I've seen this kind of thing before!"

"Ah, I don't have the strength anymore. Well, I can't even extend my hand actively..."

"This thing is a sea stone. It can isolate you from some elves...I forgot to say this, you don't understand. To put it simply, this thing can temporarily separate your consciousness from the devil fruit."

"Your Devil Fruit is very strange. It seems to have a hidden power. This power will not explode until it reaches a certain threshold."

"It's difficult to reach this threshold with conventional ways of increasing pressure, but it doesn't matter, I have other methods."

"Can my rubber still change?"

Luffy's eyes widened, his innocent eyes full of doubts.

"Who knows? Hey, maybe after that power awakens, you won't be rubber anymore."

"Really? It's so cool!"

Luffy suddenly became excited.

At this time, Dr. Tsukimi also debugged the instruments he brought before and began to install them on Luffy.

"Mr. Tsukimi, how do you inspire that power?"

Luffy asked curiously.

"Well, let me give you an analogy." Dr. Tsukimi thought for a moment and said, "For a stone, running water may take a long time to corrode and wash it away."

"But if the water is not a continuous impact, but a sudden burst, then even though the amount of water consumed may be far less than the former, it can break the stone earlier. What I have to do now is to compress the long-term pain To a moment.”

"Ah, that's it. Do you want the waves to hit me?"

Luffy's thinking was obviously not on the same line as Dr. Tsukimi's, and Dr. Tsukimi had long been used to Luffy's disconnection, so he just smiled and stopped explaining.

He continued to load the instruments, and the steel gradually wrapped around Luffy's body.

Finally, Luffy couldn't bear the silence and asked:

"Then Mr. Tsukimi, why do you want to put these sea tower stone handcuffs on me?"

"The Seastone Handcuffs can isolate your consciousness and Devil Fruit abilities. As I said just now, I want an instant impact."

"The devil fruit's adaptation to the body is still at the stage before you put on the handcuffs. When I think the pressure you are enduring reaches the threshold, I will unlock the sea floor stone handcuffs."

"In this way, the sudden huge tsunami will instantly shatter the boulder called [Threshold]."

"Oh, that's it!"

Luffy seemed to understand and said: "Is it just to accumulate power? I understand!"

"End, installation is complete."

Dr. Tsukimi finally installed the final device, clapped his hands, and stood up.

At this time, Luffy's whole body was wrapped in a metal structure, as if he was lying in a coffin.

"Hey, so Mr. Tsukimi, how can I accumulate pressure?"

"Next thing you know."

Dr. Tsukimi said with a smile, and then his smile faded slightly.

"Oh, by the way, Luffy, let me tell you something."

"Hailou stone handcuffs have another purpose."

"ah?"

Looking at Luffy who looked confused, Dr. Tsukimi took out the remote control in his pocket and pressed it.

At this moment, countless sharp blades burst out from the steel frame and pierced Luffy's body.

In just the blink of an eye, Luffy's body became riddled with holes. Rubber cannot hold sharp weapons.

As the blood spattered, Dr. Yue Jian said softly:

"This is also to prevent you from breaking away."

“Ahhhhh!

! ——”

…

"……What?"

At the submarine base, Attila's tone changed slightly, and he walked towards Justus.

Venus sleeping in the training cabin suddenly appeared in front of her.

"This is……"

At this moment, Justus felt that his teacher was not in a calm mood.

He did not disturb Attila, but turned to look at the embarrassed Makarov and scolded him coldly:

"Mr. Makarov...who is she?"

"...Mr. Vegapunk's android, Miss Venus." Makarov whispered, "She is very important to Mr. Vegapunk..."

"Then what are you doing?"

"The connection between Venus' consciousness and body is unstable, and she needs to sleep regularly to maintain body functions."

"……Open."

Attila suddenly whispered.

This voice, which was like a bell, shocked Makarov. Just as he was about to refuse, he saw Attila slowly turning his head.

The dark eyes that seemed to strike from the abyss made his face turn pale and his body instantly froze.

"……well……"

Makarov forced himself to calm down, stood up tremblingly, walked to the training cabin, and walked to Attila's side.

Operate your hands slowly on the operating table.

A few seconds later, there was a crisp opening sound from the cultivation cabin.

With the sound of "呲——", the cold air burst out from the training cabin and rushed towards Attila and the two of them.

Attila's mood fluctuated slightly.

At the same time, Makarov's eyes were hard, he gritted his teeth and moved his body slightly.

However, in the next moment, a whip hit Makarov hard!

"Peng!"

There was a crisp explosion in Makarov's body, and his bones were almost broken at the waist. His body flew out and hit the steel wall, almost breaking through the wall.

"puff!--"

He vomited a large mouthful of blood and spurted out a lot of internal organ fragments.

"You are very clever and want to take advantage of our emotional changes to launch an attack." Justus slowly put away his legs, "It's just a pity that you seem to have underestimated the strength gap between you and us."

"You're a smart man, Makarov. So can you tell me why you attacked?"

Justus asked coldly.

"Ho, ho..."

Makarov raised his head with difficulty. The severe pain in his body made it difficult for him to even breathe.

Not a word could come out.

But when it came to asking questions, he actually didn't know.

only……

He is not Vegapunk. Although he is smart, he is not just obsessed with science and technology.

Relationships between people are also very important to him.

There are many things about Venus that are different, and Vegapunk once told him that Venus cannot be found by people from the World Government, and he took it to heart.

only……

It is true that Attila and Justus were far underestimated. In other words, Makarov was not a combatant after all and did not have enough understanding of how strong a person's body could be.

"Well……"

A soft hum came from the training cabin.

Attila's attention did not change at all from the beginning to the end, he was always staring at the training cabin.

Venus slowly opened her eyes and sat up in confusion.

After a few seconds, she recovered from her frozen state and saw the heavily armored man in front of her.

At this time, she had not noticed Makarov falling beside her, but subconsciously asked softly: "Who are you?"

…

On the top level of the submarine base, a hole with a golden frame slowly opened.

"I mean - who is this?"

The researcher on duty today was furious.

A pair of plague gods just arrived...what's the situation now? Rushing for a piece?

After the hole opened to about the height of a person, two figures walked out. It was Saints Edwyd and Saint McGik who came at full speed.

"Hoo, ho..." Saint Magik knelt down directly on the ground. Long-distance space transmission was too energy-consuming, and he also used his best ability in his life to speed up the transmission.

And Saint Edwin didn't care too much, he just immediately asked the researcher who was already stunned:

"Did anything happen in the base today?"

"Ah, oh oh oh..." the researcher said a little vaguely, "Mr. Attila and Mr. War are here today..."

Saint Edweide shrank and immediately asked:

"Where did they go?"

"The bottom floor..."

"call!"

Saint Edved immediately picked up Saint Magik and rushed out quickly.

"Hey, hey...what are you doing? Let me rest for a while..."

"No, time is limited."

…

"who I am?"

Attila looked at Venus and whispered.

His voice was extremely low, thick and hoarse, and contained a sense of sadness.

"I'm here to take you away."

"Take me away?"

Venus said blankly, "Why?"

"Because you are Livingston Vinicius Palace." Attila lowered his head slowly, "The best carrier."

"...carrier?"

Venus' expression gradually became sober, and then she murmured: "Livingston Palace of Vinicius?"

This name that had not been mentioned for a long time appeared in her ears again, and Venus seemed to understand something.

Just when neither of them spoke, there was suddenly a rush of footsteps at the door behind Attila.

"Um?"

Attila turned his body slightly and looked back, and Justus and Makarov's eyes immediately moved to the destroyed door.

Footsteps approached quickly, and after a few breaths, a bright white figure suddenly stopped at the door.

A bright white figure was also taken flying out.

"Edweed, I'm not done with you!"

Magik's voice gradually faded away.

Saint Edwin didn't answer him. Before he could calm down his breath after suddenly stopping, he saw Attila and Justus standing in the room.

And in the center of the room...

"——"

His eyes widened in astonishment.

When Venus saw Saint Edved, a flash of lightning seemed to flash in her mind.

I think of what Attila said just now, "I'm here to take you away", and the long-lost phrase "Livingston Vinicius Palace"...

"..."

Her body trembled, and she whispered in a hollow tone:

"Brother (brother)?"
