Daz Bones (Mr. 1) POV - Blue Star, Grand Line, Sandy Isnd, Rainbase - 20 GAP (At the start of Alfred's attack)

  I'm climbing up the stairs to reach the floor where the room assigo me by the assistant manager of the o Rain Dinners is located to rest while my other fellow Officer Agents decided to carelessly waste their time and energy on useless frivolities, it seems that they simply do not uand that in our line of work, we have to be always ready to aualities and the best way for that is to always be cautious and at top physical aal dition.

  As I calmly climb up the stairs oep at a time, I 't help but think back at what I have learned during the previous meeting with my fellow Officer Agents and my now not-so-mysterious boss, 'It was very surprising to find out that the mysterious boss of the bounty agency Baroque Works is, in fact, the member of the Seven Warlords of the Seas, Crocodile.... well, not that this fact ges anything, I agreed to follow his orders when I joihe Baroque Works, he is my boss now that's it, his real identity and purposes don't matter...'

  Still, as I walk into my room, I 't help but smirk a little while thinking about what is going to happe, 'But I have to admit that the idea of taking trol of this try, overthrowing its king, and being part of those who founded a power who aims to rival the Wover is a quite iing and amusing experience... I 't wait to test my limits through these challenges and see what sights I'll be able to see beyond them.'

  On my room, I quickly check the surroundings to make sure that it is safe, I also make sure to map out the various escape routes depending ouation I could enter, this is a habit I developed through my years w as a bounty hunter in the West Blue, after all, even if that pce is quite peaceful pared to the Grand Li is still quite the dangerous and wless pce to live and you'll never know when you are attacked by a pirate who tries to ter kill you, a fellow bounty hunter who simply wants to elimihe petition, reedy corrupted marines who wants to keep the bounty you earned for himself.

  Doh all the security checks and with pre-pnning possible escape routes by taking a good look at the floor my room is located and even it's surroundings outside, I simply lie on the bed and y eyes as I rest my body and my mind, of course, I'm still wide awake and ready to react at any instance of danger, but this is enough to rest for me and recover my top shape, and it will also help in making sure that tonight my sleep will be very light in case of a sudden nightly attack, something unlikely but it is always better to be ready for it.

  But all of a sudden, as I'm resting on the bed, I feel that the whole pce starts to shake and I instantly open my eyes, jump up from the bed, and raise my guard as I start to carefully check my surroundings and quickly notice tless tentacle-like roots pierg through the floor and the walls destroying everything in this room as various pnts and trees start to grow out of them, quickly turning this pto some kind dense forest, at the same time, I notice that some kind of gaseous substance is being released by some of the pnts which starts to slowly fill the area.

  Seeing that, I instantly realize that this pce is utack, and without aation, almost on instinct, I decide to use the most extreme of the many pre-pnned escape routes.

  I hold my breath and quickly activate the power of the Devil Fruit I have eaten, the Supa Supa no Mi (Dice Dice Fruit) a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that enables my body to gain characteristics of a steel bde to attack oppos with, making me a Full-Body Bded Human.

  I run toward the wall and turn my fingers into bdes, cross both hands over my chest, aally yell, "Atomic Spar!" before sshing forward with a downward "X" motion, instantly slig the pnts, virees, roots, and wall in front of me into many small square pieces, then I don't stop jump through the sliced wall finding my self oher side, which is in fact, the outside of the o as my room was the most outmost room of the floor.

  But as soon as I'm outside, I notice that eveside of the o is being overthrown by trees and pnts as they quickly grow to cover the whole pyramid structure turning it into a dense forest, but luckily I also notice that outside there isn't any pnt that produces that dangerous substance.

  At the same time, as I tio fall, I once again use my Devil Fruit's powers to turn most of my body into steel bdes, and so, thanks to the momentum of my fall, I easily slice through the trees and pnts standing in my way and safely crash on the bridge thanks to the hardness my body gains in this state which makes me impervious to harm.

  This bridge is the ohat ects the o built on a ptform in the middle of the Rainbase Lake, the very rge oasis, ht resembling a ke, located in the middle of Rainbase, and the main street of the city.

  Once finally on the ground, I don't stop, but quickly get up and stealthily move to hide in a nearby building to evaluate the current situation and find the best way to act.

  Looking at the o, I quickly notice that the trees and pnts that I cut a few moments ago in my escape are already been repced by new ones, makiheorize that this unusual attack is likely the result of a Devil Fruit ability.

  As I tio watch over the o, I realize that I was able to hide just in time, as I see a group of people calmly walking out of the forest c the building a few seds after I took my position.

  The group is made up of five young women surrounded by a dozen guards dressed in medieval armor, with pointed helmets and the armor c their chest and arms, wearing aqua green pants and armed with spears.

  More importantly, among the women, there is one dressed in a thick white suit with medal-like knobs which supply her with oxygen to save her from sharing the same air as oners.

  The colr of her suit has a flower-like pattern with ce at the top. The flower pattern on her suit repeats at the sides of her skirt, and her hair ihe bubble is styled upwards, f a curl above her head, just like the man that just killed that bodyguard, she wears a veil over the lower half of her fad light e tinted shades over her eyes, and she also wears heart-shaped earrings, all this makes it quite easy to identify her as one of the World Nobles, more only called Celestial Dragons.

  While I am watg them, I also notice that the pnts, vines, and trees that make up the forest a an unusual way, they almost seem to make way and even protect that group of people, further firming my theory that this forest is the result of a Devil Fruit ability, moreover this behavior tells me that this group of people is somewhat ected with the one behind this attack.

  At the same time, another otion attracts my attention as tless marines rush into the clearing in front of the o and start to surround the building-turned-forest, all wearing tense and serious expressions on their faces.

  Seeing that, I start to once again analyze the situation, 'Something about this feels off... Usually, the Marine doesn't react so fast and for sure not in such force, this looks like almost all the sailors located in Rainbase are gathering here, and more importantly the presence of Celestial Dragons is also quite ing... Just what is going on here?'

  At this point, the voice of the person in charge catches my attention as he yells, "Let me remind you all why we are all here! A few minutes ago, we received the report that a World Noble, Saint Alfred of House Manmayer was assaulted by a member of the Bounty Hunter Agenown as Baroque Works! Moreover, we learhat this anization is actually uhe trol of a member of the Seven Warlord of the Seas, Crocodile, who actually po use this anization to overthrow the rightful ruler of this try ari Cobra, and even locate a on to oppose the Wover!"

  His words cause even more tension and u among the ranks while at the same time, I finally realize the gravity of the situation but soon, the man in charge yells, "Silence!!" bringing once again order within the ranks as he tinues, "As you have certainly realized the situation is indeed quite delicate. Now, our orders are quite clear. We have to make sure that no os out of that o and buy enough time for the Admiral to arrive! But more importantly, effective immediately, the bounty hunter agenown as Baroque Works is an enemy of the Wover! All its members are to be captured or killed on sight! And the status of Seven Warlords of the Sea of Crocodile is officially revoked!"

  Hearing that, my gaze turns sharper as I prepare for the unavoidable fight, at the same time, the group led by the youial Dragon woman tinues calmly walking until they stop in front of the person in charge and ask in a desding tone, "Are you the one in charge here?"

  The man turns around, and I finally identify him as a Marine Captain, who in the meantime instantly realizes her identity and replies with a salute, "Yes, ma'am! I'm Captain Booter the one in charge of Rainbase Marine Base, ma'am! Do you have any orders?"

  The young woman then zily says, "It is more of adviing from my esteemed brother, Saint Alfred of House Manmayer... I suggest that you equip yourself and your man with a breathing mask before you rush ihe o... You see, that forest that covers the building is the result of my nii-sama's ability, and there are pnts ihat release copious amounts of pollen which will turn anyone who breathes it into a hor uo trol himself or herself."

  Hearing that, I let out an internal sigh of relief while thinking, 'Luckily I reacted in time... even if thanks to the Supa Supa no Mi (Dice Dice Fruit) I'm very resistant to physical attacks to the point that I'm uable in a fight, suasty means are still able to affect me, what is worse is if that pollen is so powerful that I lose trol of myself, I won't be able to use my powers to harden my body leavi mercy of the enemy which could then easily kill me...'

  But then I focus ba the most pressing matter, 'I have to find a way to help my boss tide through this difficult moment. I have to wait for the perfect opportunity to attack so that I reduce their numbers and cause some ong their ranks... Maybe if the opportunity presents itself I'll even take that Celestial Dragon woman hostage to secure a way out... Of course, for that I have to be also careful of the Admiral that is about to e here, after all, no matter how strong I am, an Admiral is still a force I have to be wary of...'

  Saint Alfred POV - Blue Star, Grand Line, Sandy Isnd, Rainbase - 20 GAP

  Seeing the horrifying, disgusting, unholy se in front of my eyes, I 't help but mournfully excim in distress while seriously regretting my previous decisions while trying to hold in my urge to throw up everything I have eaten today, "Urg- Oh god please, I beg you! Someone, anyone, please help me! I o bleach my eyes!! And maybe even a memory wipe!!"

  In front of me, there are two people and a gun-dog affected by my Horny Pollen fug like mad rabbits, one is an ugly tall, and fat man, he has big lips and dirty blonde hair, and all the fat of his body is jiggling as he lets out some pig-like grunts while he is thrusting his hips into his partner, a fug ugly stout, old woman with red hair, which squeals like some kind of hellish spawn from the DOOM games as she enjoys the care of the fat dude nailing her from behind and the gun-ding her mouth, making me wish to meet some Eldritch Horror out of the mind of H.P. Lovecraft instead of looking at this.

  The se is so disgusting that I 't move my eyes away from it as I remain stunned in pce while thinking, 'Maybe I should have thought about this with a lot more attention, focus, and care... At first, it seemed a good idea to flood this pce with the Horny Pollen, one of the abilities of my Devil Fruit that I developed to turn Hancock, her sisters, and Koa into my perfect sex toys. After all, its very strong effects in a closed enviro guarahat at the very least most of the people in the building would be incapacitated to busy trying to relieve themselves to put up any kind of meaningful fight... I even had the hope of finding a helplessly horny Nico Robin, Za, or the loli Miss Goldenweek so that I could easily capture them and enjoy relieving them of their pain... But for sure I didn't hope for THIS to happen!!'

  At first, everythi acc to the pn, using the K.A.R.E.N. Tactics I was easily able to provoke someone affiliated with this establishment into attag me and so put the bme on Crocodile's anization while f the Mario act acc to my wishes, then to buy enough time for the Admiral to arrive and deal with the toughest oppo while also preventing my preys from esg, I used my teique Lost Woods, which basically created a dense, byrinth-like forest which took over this building and its surroundings, I even made sure that the roots grew in such a way that colpsed the hidden uer tuhat could be used as an escape, and as ig on the cake, I grew the flowers to spread the Horny Pollen throughout the whole building to incapacitate as many people as possible and make my quest even easier.

  Then taking full advantage of the situation caused by the bination of Lost Woods and Horny Pollen, I started to hunt down my prey while killing anyone who succumbed to the Horny Pollen, draining them of all their fluids and turning them into Wood Golems, which are basically corpse parasitized by pnts under my trol smart enough to follow my orders, strohan the average person and very hard to kill, the perfect mob for time-ing jobs like searg for someone, ing, or even disposing of useless sves.

  But now, seeing the gruesome sight in front of me, I'm starting to sed guess my previous choice, but then I remind myself of my objective, the best waifu Nico Robin as she begs for me to fuck her and quickly regain my crity, then without aation, I trol some nearby root to impale the eldritch mess in front of me, draining them of all their fluids, turning them iy husks.

  Then under my and, the roots started to iheir bodies, taking over everything, and quickly they started to ge before my very eyes, their bodies started to fill once more as from the roots that took over their bodies all kinds of saps started to flow which transform them, their skin bees bark-like, their stature ges being taller and leaners, their hands bee like cws as branches and moss start to grow out of their bodies, basically they look very simir to the Flower Colossi of the Marvel Universe, as I admit used Groot as refereo make the Wood Golems.

  Oheir transformation is plete, the three new Wood Golems quickly stand up and start to follow my orders as they move out to seard hunt down and capture any living being trapped in this building.

  After that, I too tio walk around searg for my targets while thinking, 'I hope that the Lost Woods and the Wood Golems dey Crocodile long enough for the Admiral to arrive, after all, for everyone else in this pce I have thought of a way to deal with them, only he is the one who is truly dangerous for me and I have no fiden my ces against him.'

  I start to walk up a set of stairs as I tihat train of thoughts, 'The main reason for that is that his Devil Fruit be sidered a direct ter of mine, especially with its ability to drain liquids from its victims which seriously harm me and affect my eion. But even more important, I sider the main differeween us. It is hard to admit it but I truly have o no talent in fighting, after all, even after all these years, I wasn't able to awaken my Haki no matter how hard I train. Moreover, it isn't like I have much experience fighting in the first pce, as I did not ... oher hand, Crocodile is a true boss-like character, he is the very first big threat that the main character of this world, Luffy, faced, with many years of experience fighting against all kinds of oppos in all kind of situations and the only reason he lost is basically because of plot armor because from what I remember Crocodile owned him the previous 2 or 3 times they fought. I truly don't like the odds between us that is why I made sure that an Admiral takes care of this mess while I focus on capturing my oys.'

  Suddenly I stop as I sense a huge number of pnts, trees, flowers, vines, and roots under my trol quickly dying and beiroyed in very quick succession, more importantly, the destroyed pnts are the ohat ihe basement of this building, from that, I instantly realize that Crocodile made a move, as he is the only one capable of affeg such a rge area, moreover, the speed with which he destroyed everything also firms my fear that his Devil Fruit, the Suna Suna no Mi (Sand Sand Fruit) is almost a direct ter to mine.

  This realization, makes me raise my pace as I now run up the stairs putting as much distaween me and Crocodile as possible, after all, my victory dition isn't to defeat and kill him, but just to buy enough time for the Admiral to e and deal with him.

  Of course, while I'm running away from Crocodile, it doesn't mean that I'm moving around this building randomly, nope, I'm moving with clear purpose as I'm heading toward the area where I feel some of my pnts and even Wood Golems beiroyed whidicates that within the building some people were able to fight off the effects of the Horny Pollen, which it wouldn't be so surprising because a simple mask over the mouth and nose is enough to block the pollen from entering the body and affect the victims, so those smart and quiough should be able to deal with it, like the Nico Robin, Mr. 3, Mr. 1 and maybe Za, also known as Miss Doublefinger.

  This is why I'm heading toward one of those areas because it is very likely that I'll be able to find one of my sedary targets, or even Nico Robihere.

  At the moment, there are actually two such areas, one is located on the ground floor, and the person iion is basically quickly mowing through everything that stands in his way, which makes me believe that this individual is, in fact, Mr. 1 because with his Supa Supa no Mi (Dice Dice Fruit), there is very little that the Wood Golem and the enviro do to stop or harm him, especially if he covered his face with a mask, so I simply ignore him and focus on the area on the upper floors, where the rate of destru is much lower, making it quite possible for it to be one of my targets.

  Of course, on my way there I tio kill and turn into Wood Golem all the people I find, whehey are mating like animals, fapping without trol, or even trying to relieve themselves with the nearby pnts, meanwhile, I notice that the widespread destru caused by Crocodile is quickly heading toward the smoothly advang Mr. 1 meaning that the two will soon join forces.

  But at the same time, I'm also quickly getting closer and closer to my target, and now as I'm about to meet her, the only thing that keeps repeating itself in my mind is, 'Please let it be Nico Robin. Please let it be Nico Robin. Please let it be Nico Robin. Please let it be Nico Robin. Please let it be Nico Robin...'

  Finally, I arrive just in time to see another of my wandering Wood Golems beiroyed, unfortunately, it isn't Nico Robin as the Wood Golem is beiroyed into many pieces by a rolling spiked ball that looks almost like a sea ur.

  After destroying the Wood Golem, the spiked ball loses all its spikes and turns into a tall, slim young woman with curly dark-blue hair, thick lips, dark green eyes, pale skin, and a curvaceous figure, which starts walking toward me using her most memorable feature, the over-exaggerated way she walks, as she notices my presenbsp;

  As the girl swings those sexy hips way too much, which makes raise ihe desire to hold her from those sexy hips and ride her from behind until I fill her t with my seed and she passes out from pleasure.

  She wears a short long-sleeved jacket with beige-colored fur brims, a bikini top describing an unusual spider web-like pattern across her abdominal area, low-riding pants, and ptform sandals, it is clear that she is one of my sedary targets, the sexy Za, ame, Miss Doublefinger, and what is even more iing is that she isn't wearing any kind of mask but she is still able to maintain her reason which is quite impressive as she should be like a bit heat uo trol herself.

  Once she is a few meters away from me, Za sensually smiles and says, "Oh my... I finally see some other living person instead of those scary tree men... and you are quite handsome too... what do you say if we find a nice safe space to enjoy a very satisfying hether? You know? This pce made me quite hot and bothered~ so much that I almost 't stand it anymore~ I really need something hard and big inside me~!"

  Hearing her invite, I already feel my cock getting harder, and with a smirk on my face I walk toward her and reply, "I'm in! I promise I'll you experience a pleasure you have never felt before in your life, and that you will never fet-." but before I could finish, Za's smile turns from a sensual oo an evil one as she yells, "Double Stinger!" turns her hands into single, rge spikes before stabbing me multiple times in rapid succession leaving huge holes in my body, then she says, "Idiot! Like I would believe that someone is able to calmly walk through these pollen-ied corridors without any prote and still be sane... the only ohat do so is the one behind this attack."

  Hearing that, I smile and reply, "You are quite smart..." shog her as she excims, "That is impossible! You should be dead!!", I smirk and use my powers to create a tree hand from under Za which quickly grasp her body and immobilize her, of course, I make sure that it is hard enough to withstand the pierg power of her spikes, at the same time, I also make my bee.

  And as Za's expression turns into a horrified one, I grin and say, "Wele to my colle, Za. Don't worry, I'll make sure that you won't be able to live anymore without me, and I'm going to enjoy every moment of it... but that is for ter as I have more pressing matters to focus on at the moment..." while thinking, 'And with this I got one, only the loli and the holy grail remains...'
