Dimensional Chat Group: Speed-o'-Light

[Kobayashi]: Newcomer, do you mind introducing yourself? Or maybe "Random Guy" can do it for you? Oh, right, I'm Kobayashi, just an ordinary office worker~

[Ai Haibara]: Another newcomer who doesn't like to talk? Or did something happen to them the moment they joined, just like that creep with a thing for little girls?

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: @Esdeath-sama, do you mind if I introduce you to everyone?

[Fubuki]: You little—why didn't you show this kind of respect when I joined?!

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Hmph! Of course, I treat big shots differently from weaklings. A big shot could slap me to death. Can you?

[Ai Haibara]: Tsk, as expected from a police dog. Already licking boots, huh?

[Kizaru]: You guys chat, I've got something to take care of~

Kizaru had originally planned to greet the newcomer—after all, this time, it was truly a formidable one.

Aside from lacking Logia abilities, Esdeath was basically a copy of Aokiji.

And considering she had a trump card that could freeze time itself, if the two ice-users fought, it was hard to say who would win.

But before Kizaru could waste any more time in the chat, the Captain he called, who had been sent out to patrol the seas, returned.

Upon hearing that Admiral Kizaru was investigating Rear Admiral Lorin's crimes, this veteran captain became extremely excited. Without even waiting for Kizaru to ask, he dumped all the evidence he had collected over the years.

At first, Lorin tried to argue his innocence.

But when confronted with ironclad proof, he had no choice but to accept the mountain of charges that would land him in Impel Down.

Even though Kizaru handled everything as swiftly as possible, the entire process still took several hours.

He was a bit disappointed about missing his chance to greet the newcomer—until he reopened the chat and saw someone had @mentioned him.

[Esdeath]: I just want to know—who is the strongest here?

[Kobayashi]: Esdeath-san, are you very interested in fighting?

[Ai Haibara]: If you want to know who the strongest is, ask Police Dog over there—@Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh.

[Orochimaru]: Heh, another newcomer, hmm?

[Tony Stark]: Oh, but fighting isn't the only fun thing in life. How about a romantic candlelit dinner instead? What do you think, beautiful lady?

[Esdeath]: If you can defeat me, then you can do whatever you want to me!

[Tony Stark]: Hey, I like your attitude. Once my Iron Man suit is finished, I wouldn't mind playing with you a little.

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Uh… if we're talking about raw strength, Kizaru and Orochimaru are probably the strongest in the group. Or maybe we should include Tohru from Kobayashi's house?

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Tony, I strongly suggest you calm down. Esdeath's combat power is a bit over the top. There's no way you'd be able to beat her right now.

[Tony Stark]: Oh yeah? And how would you know? You haven't even seen the full power of my Iron Man suit!

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Well… Esdeath's ability can freeze the entire empire. And considering the empire's real-world equivalent, you could think of it as her being able to cover most of the United States in ice.

[Tony Stark]: Ahem… I was just joking. Please don't take that seriously.

[Esdeath]: You seem to know quite a lot about me.

[Akame ga Kill World]

Esdeath narrowed her eyes slightly. This so-called chat group was turning out to be quite interesting.

She had never revealed the full extent of her power to anyone. Yet this so-called "Random Guy" seemed to know her inside and out.

And from his tone, it was clear that the group contained people who, at least in his eyes, could rival her strength.

If it were anyone else making such claims, she would have dismissed them as foolish underestimation. But this guy clearly knew what he was talking about.

"Interesting…"

Esdeath smirked, sending a shiver down the spines of the fortress officers. None of them wanted to attract the attention of their ruthless general.

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: I'm sorry! I was wrong! I'm just a weakling! Please don't take an interest in me!

[Kobayashi]: Esdeath-san, don't misunderstand. Random Guy just knows a lot, but he himself is actually really weak.

[Fubuki]: That loudmouth is kind of annoying, but he doesn't mean any harm. Newcomer, are you interested in trading gift bags?

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Uh… well… I mean, I'm not that weak…

[Esdeath]: @Orochimaru, are you the strongest person here?

[Orochimaru]: Unfortunately, I'm probably not the opponent you're looking for.

[Esdeath]: I don't care who it is—someone fight me! If you lose, you become my slave. Of course, if I lose, the same applies to me!

[Fubuki]: Hey, hey! That's way too rude!

[Ai Haibara]: Ugh, another self-centered lunatic… What a headache.

[Jotaro Kujo]: I refuse.

[Esdeath]: Then come and defeat me! Don't tell me you people don't even have the courage to fight!

[Kobayashi]: That's a bit much. Can't we all just talk like normal people?

[Esdeath]: I have no interest in dealing with weaklings. If you're too scared to fight me, then you're only fit to follow my orders!

[Tony Stark]: Hey, Little Tony tells me you're gorgeous, but I've never met a woman with such a horrible personality!

[Esdeath]: Are you volunteering to fight? I'll even let you all take me on at once if you'd like!

[Ai Haibara]: Hey, Police Dog, is this woman a villain or something? Her personality is seriously rotten!

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: @Kizaru, uh… wanna give it a shot? You're probably the only one here who can take her on…

[Kizaru]: Hmm… I just stepped away for a bit, and now you're all arguing?

[Esdeath]: So you're the strongest one here?

[Kizaru]: Oh, I think I understand what's going on now… Esdeath-san, don't you want to reconsider? We're all from different worlds, so even if you win, does it really mean anything?

[Esdeath]: Not bad. At least you're not running away like the others. Very well! You'll be my opponent. Since you have the guts to fight, I'll try to go easy on you—I won't kill you.

[Random Guy Who Wants to Hug Luo Feng's Thigh]: Kizaru-san, are you really going to fight her? Can we get a livestream?

[Kobayashi]: Yeah! Let's stream it! Kizaru-san, turn on the stream!

[Fubuki]: I also want to see if Police Dog's so-called "strongest fighter" is really as powerful as he claims!

[Orochimaru]: Heh… A livestreamed duel? If no one objects, I wouldn't mind preparing a little prize for the winner.

[Esdeath]: Fine. How are we doing this? Should I come to your world?
