Chapter 57: The Ace Gambit

One Piece: Wanted DeadWords: 9623

In her sister's arms, Azriel laid, unable to move due to the damage against fighting her mother.

Metana: Are you okay...?

Azriel: No... Not only could I not do a single thing to make up for saving me...

Azriel: I couldn't get back at her...

Metana: Get back?

Azriel:... She left us with nothing, Metana. You were sick and she did nothing...

Metana: She didn't know. And I don't know if you noticed, but she isn't exactly the brightest cookie.

Azriel: You aren't mad?

Metana: She's a pirate. I understand to a degree.

Metana: In the end. I'm fine. And happy.

Metana:(smiles) And it's all thanks to you.

Metana: You gave me my health back.. a group of friends... You are my guardian angel.

Azriel's body began to shine and her mechanical parts began to crack and fall apart.

Metana: So I don't care if mom does her own thing. My only concern... My only dream...

Metana:(smiles) Is to see you as happy as me!

Her mechanical parts shatter as all her cybernetic enhancements are erased. Azriel was now 100% organic. At the small cost of being naked again.

Her eyes widen. Azriel stands up, still fatigued but able to stand.

(Floop)

A pair of angelic wings spring from her back.

Azriel: Metana...

Metana:(gasp) Your boobies are back!

Azriel:.... (Chuckles)... You're very simple minded.

Sprouting more wings, Azriel covers herself. Now in a dress of wings. Azriel finds her second wind.

(Crash)

Through a hole in the wall, Azriel and Metana see Davy get knocked into the sea.

Azriel: I have to go.

Metana: But what about the water?

Azriel: If you can erase my mechanization... Then I'll use that power to erase it.

Metana: Do you even know how to use it?

Azriel: I'm going to be forced to.

With a flap of her wings, Azriel takes off, quickly using her Devil fruit to enhance herself to be able to locate Davy. Without a second thought, she dives into the water and grabs Davy. She too lost all her strength and sank with Davy. Forcing herself to stay conscious, Azriel forced herself to use her latent Lineage factor that's in her people.

Davy:?

John Paul Jones took a heavy sigh and swung his arm back, prepared to pluck his child out of the sea.

(Splash)

But to his and his crew's shock, Davy swam to the top gasping for air, with Azriel. Swimming to the shore where he dragged Azriel out of the water and began observing himself.

Davy: Water... It's not making me weak anymore? I can swim?

Davy: But...

(BRRRRRR)

Davy: I still have my Devil Fruit powers...

(VRRRRRRRRR)

Davy: Az... You... Erased my weakness to water?

Azriel:(coughs)... I'll be honest... I was trying to erase it on myself first...

Azriel: But I guess you're the better option anyway...

(DZZZZZZRRRRRRRTTTTT)

Davy: Azriel...

(Crash)

At the top of the lighthouse, the rest of the crew crawled and dragged each other to the top to continue their battle.

John:?

Strawberry: Cute. But meaningless in the end...

John's crew prepared to finish off Davy's.

Azriel:!

Azriel: Davy... The others!

Davy:?!

His Haki needed to recharge after being knocked out of his Level 4 state. But despite the lack there off, Davy began to rotate hus body at a high level despite the risks.

Davy: Grrrrrr...! DOn't yOu dArE laY a haNd on My crEw!!!!!

(WOOOOOOSH)

Speeding past his crew, Davy had his fist raised at his father. Smashing it straight into their face, pushing it in until his son's fist was a visable dent coming from the back of his head.

(BOING)

(CRASH)

(Davy vs John)

His elastic properties caused John Paul Jones to rubber band through a wall out of the lighthouse which quickly began to crumble as Davy's rotations were wildly creating an odd type of vacuum. Leaping after his father Davy raised another fist which had rubble orbiting his fist, crashing into each other to create a sphere.

John:(smirks)

Davy: Raaaaah!

Throwing his arms back, John prepared to punch his son, until he noticed the Erase-Erase fruit was in Davy's odd orbit.

Swinging his arm, John stretched it out to try and grab the fruit.

Davy's mini planet fist came in between John and the fruit, landing a heavy blow that knocked the Helllord into the sky. The clouds became rubber-like as John used it as a trampoline to dropkick Davy into the ground.

John then faced palmed himself as the fruit was only dragged with Davy who got a plethora of different rubble, earth, and water into his new angry orbit.

Eight large spheres were created by Davy's orbit. One of the stones, one of water, one was burning debris, one dust, one of massive size, one of metal and the last was a combination of water and other materials.

Davy: If you wanna have your way... Earn it damn it!!

Swinging at John, Davy sends the eight planetoids towards his father.

He skips from one to another to get down, but the largest one pulled him back onto it. It was as if it had gained its very own gravity.

John: Pffft! Shihihihih!

Sent flying into the clouds, Davy watched as thunder began to rain and a shadow grew.

John: "Gear 3; Giant Inflation"!!

His father parted the clouds to reveal his now giant form. Easily a thousand times larger than he usually was, he raised a Haki coated fist. Davy roared, pulling back the planetoids as his Haki returned, allowing him to grow his eight planets. The two flared their Conquer's spirit as they swung.

John: "Gum-Gum; Giant Whale Gun"!!!

Davy: "Ro-Ro; Ace Of Solar System"!!!

The eight planets lined up and crashed into each other as they impacted John's fist.

John:(smiles)

Davy: Grrrrrraaaaaahhhh!

(Chunk-slpaaaat)

Davy:!?!!?

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

(CRASH)

Davy:!?

(CRAAAAAAAASHHHHHHH)

Davy J lost. Completely and utterly defeated.

Rubble rained down on Davy who laid with the veins across his body having burst, and a few of his bones broken and poking out of his flesh. The level at which he had been rotating his body without Haki had finally caught up with his body which couldn't keep up.

John:(exhale)

Like a balloon that's been released, John flew around wildly before landing head first beside his son.

Crossing his legs and letting himself fall back, John casually laid beside Davy.

John: The true potential, function and limits of a Devil fruit come from the users understanding of the concept given.

John: Being a rich brat...

Davy:(coughs)!

Davy: The hell you call me!?

John: You were given a good education. Meaning you could use that fruit to that amazing extent.

John: Smart or simple. Those are the type of people who can best bring out the power of a fruit.

John:(smile) Hehehe! I knew I gave you a real hidden gem! Hahaha!

John: And the others said I should give you the Dragon-Dragon fruit.

Davy: Came to gloat?

John: A little...

John: I also came to tell you this... You have grown immensely in such a short amount of time...

John: But slow down pal. Your body just cannot keep up.

Davy: Urk!

Despite all his injuries, Davy sat up and turned to his father. Raising a fist with great effort.

Davy: Not... When...! So much is at stake!

John:....

Stretching out his arm, John picks up the Erase fruit and flings it into Davy's lap.

Davy:?

John: Now no one can say I didn't give you a strong fruit.

Davy: What the hell is this?

John:(yawn)

John: Listen, the way I got it was kinda anticlimactic. After ALL my adventures, it ends like this?

John: Nah...

John: So hold onto it... Get stronger Davy. And I'll one day come for it.

Davy and John's crews arrive. The Helllords on the Wicked Wench which John Paul Jones wastes no time leaping aboard the floating ship. Davy's crew in their injured state surrounded Davy, Metana using her power to begin erasing his wounds.

Strawberry: You forgot the fruit.

John: No.

John: I decided to follow your advice and gave him a strong fruit! Hahaha!

Jade: So you're just gonna throw away, years of prep?

John:(smiles) Pretty much!

John: Anyway... I gotta go bang his mom. So let's set sail- oh yeah!

Davy was helped up by his crew who began to drag him away in defeat.

John: STOP RIGHT THERE!!

Crew:?!

His Conquer's Haki flared, forcing everyone to turn to John Paul Jones to find him making a heart shape with his hands.

John: I love you son~!

Davy: Urk!?!

The Helllords hold in their laughter along with Davy's crew.

Davy:(embarrassed)...

John: Say it back~

Davy: I...

Davy: Am going to get stronger!

Davy: And never lose to the likes of you again! Watch your backs "Hell-losers"!!

Davy: We're going to gun for you!!!

John: "Gum-Gum..."

Pinching his lips, John throws his lips.

John: "Kiss"!

Giving Davy a long distance forehead kiss that knocked him over, the Wicked Wench flew off.

Davy: Jackass!

John:(smiles) Punk ass....

Strawberry: Why are you smirking?

John:(smirks) Because I told you! That Revolv-revolv fruit was... What?

Helllords:(groan)

John:(dances) It was cool! It was cool!

John: In your face! In your face! And in your face!

Strawberry: Grrrr!

Jade:(giggles)

John: Did you SEE what he did? Made little planets! That Level 4 stuff was pretty neat too!

John: And he can apparently make tornados!

John: Haha!

"Wealth or fame"

"Good or evil"

"The freedom to change this world as you wish is out there..."

"Davy Jones locker..."

"My locker..."

"Is REAL!!"

"And yours to find..."

???:!?!!

(BAAAAMMMFT)

On the island where Davy discovered the Erase-Erase fruit. In a deeper floor, a person beside two others held their head. The entire complex then vanished, leaving the trio falling as water raced to fill the sudden gap.

These three then found time around them came to halt, along with their fall.

???: Apologies... I saw an unfortunate future.

???: One... One that leads to a new great pirate era... That will destroy the world.

???: Davy Jones Must Die!!!

To be concluded....
