159 Chapter 159: Nico Robin(Finest Woman Alive!)

While I was training at the top of the mast, I sensed slight movement from below, prompting me slightly open my eyes as I saw Nami, Luffy, and Zoro leave their ship, heading in the direction of Mock town; if I weren't training, I'd warn them of Blackbeard, but I was, so I shrugged my arms and ignored them as I continued concentrating. With me intensely training, the hours began to slip by, and before I knew it, the bright sunny sky had set, and now, all that remained was a cloudly night, though, behind those clouds, I could feel it; tonight was a full moon.

Thanks to the clouds, I wasn't transforming into what I've learned is called my sulong form, which all Minks have, but even still, I could feel its trapped power coursing through my veins, just waiting for it to be unleashed.

'Heh, unfortunately, not tonight, no sulong for me, which is good, as I'd probably end up killing Blackbeard, and that would be such a waste, not to mention it wouldn't even be a fun fight when transformed.' Thought Diddy as he opened his eyes from his several hours of training, deciding to bring his training to a halt for today.

Looking around, I spotted long nose, who was called Usopp, nailing makeshift wings to the side of their ship; he was doing a poor job at it, but from my understanding, he was no shipwright, so it made sense, not like I really cared, just an observation I made. Unsurprisingly, I didn't sense either Freyja or Scar, though I did notice Mael; he and Grand were playing a game of cards while a miniature sun floated above them.

Leaping off the mast, I landed on the upper deck and approached my hammock, only to curse inwardly when I spotted Tenza still sleeping there.

"Tsk, you're lucky I'm not even that tired, Trenza." Muttered Diddy with a growl as he glared at Trenza, who was sleeping like a baby, oblivious to the fact that a literal beast was standing merely a foot away from her.

Throwing my fur cloak atop her, lest she gets a cold and dies from scurvy or some other sickness people get at sea, I turned around and walked downstairs, passing Mael and Grand before heading into the lower deck.

Walking past the few cabins, I stopped when I spotted Robin inside Sebas's room, and weirdly enough, I didn't sense Sebas anywhere in the vicinity; he wasn't on the ship to begin with. Silently entering Sebas's room, I stood behind her and watched as she rummaged through his belongings, seemingly looking for something, only to sigh slightly in frustration.

"Haa, it seems Sebas doesn't have any information about the void century either." Muttered Robin with a sigh as she closed the cabinet before turning around, only to freeze when she spotted Diddy standing less than a foot behind her while staring into her eyes.

"Just because I didn't kill you before doesn't mean I won't kill you." Said Diddy with a feral grin as he reached forward and touched Robins's face, using his sharp nails to softly draw a line on her cheek, leaving behind a blood trail.

"Anyways, I'm not really in the mood; I've just got done training, and I'm feeling pretty satisfied with my progress, so you're rather lucky, though you still need to get out." Added Diddy lightly with a smirk as he backed away, causing Robin to release a breath in relief, only for him to grab her by the face and throw her out of the room, slamming her against the wall, causing her to cough out spit.

After throwing her out of the room, I turned around and saw her cross her arms as several arms emerged from the walls and ground, causing me to grin as I bared my fangs at her.

"Don't push your luck, Robin; you're only alive since I've got no desire to kill weaklings like yourself. Put your limbs away, or I'll rip your spine out of your body, you choose." Remarked Diddy with a ferocious smile as he licked his fangs, causing Robin to hesitate for a few seconds before finally lowering her arms, prompting all her other limbs to vanish into a puff of smoke.

Seeing her back down, I also calmed down before exiting Sebas's room and heading toward the kitchen; I may not be able to sleep because of Trenza, but I damn sure could eat, and if I couldn't, for some reason, best believe when I say someone is dying.

"Tsk, stupid Janet, eating my devil fruit." Muttere Diddy under his breath while frowning as he opened the fridge, only to see the lack of a white fruit with weird swirls on it.

Grabbing some frozen sea king meat, I threw it onto the table before sitting down while Robin, who had been following me, sat opposite me, causing me to raise an eyebrow, but I quickly ignored her and started cooking the sea king meat with my lightning.

"Did you really kill Saint Xalrons?" Asked Robin after several moments of silence as she used her handkerchief to wipe the blood trailing down her mouth before intently eyeing Diddy.

"Yes, I cut his head off; get Janet; she'll show you the picture. Never mind, she's already left; I better be on the front page in the next newspaper." Remarked Diddy as he didn't even bother looking at Robin and instead bit into the sea king's meat, ripping a piece off with his deadly sharp teeth.

"So you killed a Celestial Dragon? I-I feel like discovering the truth about the void century won't even be this hard to accept." Muttered Robin under her breath as she looked at Diddy, who heard her every word, while she hung her head down.

"Void century? What's that? Sounds special, sort of like Skypiea." Questioned Diddy half-assedly as he glanced at Robin while chewing on Sea King, though his words did prompt her to look up at him.

"Void century is simply a time in history where an entire century is skipped over as if it never existed in the first place." Replied Robin in slight enthusiasm as she rested her elbows on the table and looked at Diddy, who merely raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, that's it? Thought it was going to be something interesting." Said Diddy with a disappointed look before shaking his head, causing Robin to be slightly offended.

"That's it? You're not interested in what possibly happened during that century? Not at all?" Questioned Robin with furrowed brows as she eyed Diddy, who finished his fourth slab of sea king meat and started on the fifth while cooking the sixth.

"When did the Void century happen?" Asked Diddy as he glanced at Robin, unhinging his jaw and enlarging his throat so he could stuff the remainder of the fifth slab of sea king meat into his mouth.

"Roughly 900 years ago." Replied Robin, hoping she'd get some reaction out of Diddy, and while she did, it wasn't one she was expecting.

"Hehe, this happened nearly a millennia ago, and you expect me to be interested? I don't care about anything that happened before my birth, so what makes you think I'd care about something from 900 years ago? I could live 50 of my lives, and 900 years still wouldn't have passed." Declared Diddy with an amused chuckle as he shook his head, causing Robin to pause for a few moments before slightly widening her eyes.

"How old are you?" Asked Robin, giving Diddy a once over as he finished his seventh and final slab of sea king meat, consuming roughly fifty pounds of food in one sitting.

"15, I'm turning 16 in a few months." Replied Diddy while speeding up his metabolism, causing his bloated stomach to deflate like a balloon as it returned to its normal appearance with six well-defined abs.

"Y-Youre only 15? You're not even considered an adult and you've already killed a Celestial Dragon? This is definitely more shocking than the truth behind the void century." Remarked Robin with wide eyes as she was taken aback by Diddy's words, though before she could ask anything else, a golden brown furry hand clasped her head.

"Now, that's enough talking for one night; you can return to your ship." Said Diddy as he held Robin by her head while walking out of the kitchen, past the cabins, and up the stairs before arriving at the main deck.

Looking at the straw hat's ship, I tossed her over to them, and just before she hit the deck, Sanji, who was covered in bandages, came out from nowhere and caught her before gracefully sitting her down.

"Bastard! I'll kill you! How dare you harm, Robin-san!" Yelled Sanji in furry as he dashed toward Diddy, but before he could, Chopper tightly held onto his foot.

"No, you can't Sanji! You're still injured!" Yelled Chopper passionately as he stopped Sanji from chasing after Diddy, a comical scene; too bad he was already on the upper deck of his own ship.

Ignoring that group of idiots, I approached my hammock, which was still occupied by Trenza, before lifting her up and setting her on the ground just beside the hammock, though since she was a heavy sleeper, she didn't feel a thing and stayed fast asleep. Stepping over her, I got into my hammock and looked at the sky, spotted the bright full moon through the small gaps in the clouds before closing my eyes and slowly drifting to sleep.

'Blackbeard better not disappoint me next time we meet.' Thought Diddy as he fell into dreamland while Sanji kept screaming from his ship.
