Chat Group For The Dead : Start From One Piece

Stussy looked at Marco with an aggrieved expression. "I know you don't trust me, but I'm telling the truth! Since you refuse to share the treasure Whitebeard left behind with my son and me, we'll just leave on our own."

With that, Stussy attempted to take Whitebeard Jr. and retreat, but Marco intercepted her with a cold smile.

"You think we'll let you go just because we can't immediately verify your words? Sorry, but we have someone here who can communicate with Dad."

Marco's eyes shifted toward Lucas, silently asking for confirmation. Lucas chuckled and nodded.

"Whitebeard heard everything," Lucas said, his tone carrying a hint of amusement. "And he's so angry right now that he wants to kill someone."

As soon as those words were spoken, Marco and the other captains' faces darkened with murderous intent. Stussy, realizing the dire situation, looked utterly defeated.

"Wait! Let me do it!"

A sudden, furious roar echoed across the battlefield.

In the distance, a small boat rapidly approached. Standing at the bow was a purple-haired man, his seastone mechanical arm gleaming under the sunlight.

Black Arm Zephyr!

"I was patrolling nearby and just happened to hear about your appearance," Zephyr growled, his presence exuding raw fury. "It seems fate has given me the perfect opportunity!"

His eyes, as sharp as a blade, locked onto Stussy and Whitebeard Jr. The sheer hatred burning within them was unmistakable.

"Black Arm Zephyr!" Stussy's face turned pale as despair crept into her heart. What kind of rotten luck was this?

Why were all her enemies converging on her at once?

Stussy felt a sinking dread in her gut. Could it be… retribution? Had her countless misdeeds finally come back to haunt her?

No, she quickly dismissed the thought.

I'm not that bad. It's just… murder, arson, robbery.

Everyone in this world does it! So why am I the only one suffering?!

While Stussy's thoughts spiraled, no one cared.

Zephyr, seething with rage, wasted no time. With a powerful swing of his seastone arm, he lunged at Whitebeard Jr., his sheer momentum enough to shake the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Marco and the other captains surrounded Stussy, their expressions dark and merciless.

This old, deceitful hag had done nothing but cause chaos, tarnishing Whitebeard's legacy and harming their family. Her sins were unforgivable!

"Get out of my way, you annoying old man!" Whitebeard Jr. bellowed, his rage swelling. His body expanded grotesquely, muscles bulging as if inflated by some unnatural force.

"Hmm? A Devil Fruit ability?" Lucas mused, intrigued by the transformation.

A soft voice answered beside him. "Yes. The user of the Paramecia Power-Power Fruit can amplify their own strength several times over."

[*Tl: This is author assumption since this is an old fanfic, Oda have not reveal anything about weevil power, think of this like Byrnndi World, More-More Fruit]

Lucas turned slightly and saw Ain standing next to him, her face solemn.

"When I was a rookie," Ain continued, her voice laced with sorrow, "Zephyr-sensei led us on patrol and we encountered Whitebeard Jr.. Zephyr fought him and had the upper hand."

She clenched her fists. "But Whitebeard Jr. turned his attacks on us instead. Sensei took the brunt of his assault to protect us. Most of our squad didn't survive. Only two of us made it out… and Sensei lost his arm."

Lucas felt a pang of sympathy. He placed a reassuring hand on Ain's head, offering silent comfort.

Meanwhile, Zephyr's vengeance burned brighter than ever. His seastone arm gave him a critical advantage against Devil Fruit users. Seizing the opportunity, he locked onto Whitebeard Jr., gripping his opponent's arm with an iron-clad hold.

[*Tl: You know it make sense if Weevil is a devil fruit user, Making Zephyr have the seastone arm not only for random devil fruit pirate, but purely so he can counter Weevil, its my thougt]

"Die!"

A cruel smirk spread across Zephyr's face. The cannon mounted on his mechanical arm roared to life, firing directly at Whitebeard Jr.'s limb.

The impact was catastrophic.

Whitebeard Jr.'s arm was blasted apart, sending chunks of flesh and bone flying. He howled in agony, collapsing onto the ground.

Zephyr showed no mercy. Raising his seastone arm high, he began his relentless assault, pounding Whitebeard Jr. with bone-crushing force. The brutality of the scene was almost unbearable to watch.

Lucas instinctively reached out, covering Ain's eyes. Even he felt a twinge of sympathy.

While Zephyr mercilessly dismantled Whitebeard Jr., Marco and the others delivered swift judgment upon Stussy.

She had no chance of survival.

Once the battle was over, Lucas turned to Zephyr and gave a firm nod.

"The protection of this territory is in your hands now."

Zephyr wiped the blood from his knuckles, his expression unreadable.

Lucas continued, "If anything urgent happens, contact me immediately. I'll return as fast as I can."

With those parting words, Lucas led the elite Whitebeard Pirates back to the Floating Island.

Their next destination was clear—Wano Country, deep within the heart of the Beast Pirates' territory.
