232 Chapter 232

"Oh… Yeah." 

Saint Carlos let a small moan. He was lying on his chair, staring at the Holy Land. His hands were on his stomach. In the last days, he had been able to regain his weight after Josh gave him the second contract. Carlos could jab anyone with imaginable speed, turning them into toys. 

He stared at the holy land. Few slaves were working. Besides them, there were few toys. 

Carlos clicked his tongue. Those toys are Celestial Dragons. 

But they are working at the same level as the slaves. 

Carlos didn't want this to happen. 

But he can't allow his PP to vanish. 

It's a very easy choice. 

And he had been living like a king among the other celestial dragons. He usually would turn the men into toys, and then, he would try to snatch their women. 

Sometimes, he had been turned down. It didn't matter, no one will remember that woman. As for the ones who didn't, they will enjoy it until a delayed time. 

"Josh won't like you if you act like a simp." Said a creepy voice behind him. 

Carlos turned and jabbed, trying to touch the person. Stussy held him from his wrist, put her other hand on his arm, and bent it over until his palm was next to his face. 

Stussy clicked her tongue. "Now now, Carlos." She muttered. "If you point that hand at me, I'll break it into pieces." 

She pressed on his arm. 

The soft Celestial Dragon could feel his bones cracking. He endured in silence and nodded with tears. Stussy let him take his hand back. Carlos started justifying. 

"I didn't expect you." He said. "You surprised me." 

Stussy sneered. "I have a reminder for you. Josh had told you to turn every Celestial Dragon, and he didn't specify the gender. If you don't want your little pp to vanish, 

"Hey. I'm above average now. You should have seen me in my glorious days." Carlos defended his honour. 

"You ugly bastard." Stussy almost threw up. 

"At any case, I didn't forget," Carlos said. "I will do my task." 

"You better be," Stussy said before vanishing in thin air. 

-x-X-x- 

Apparently, if the mental trauma is the key to awakening your Conqueror Haki, seeing Linlin naked will do it. 

Josh was closing his eyes, facing the old naked Charlotte Linlin who had been revived. Linlin was shocked that she came back to life, and she was staring at Josh with wide-opened eyes. 

She looked down, to see her body was naked. She covered herself with her arms. 

"What have you done to me, pervert," Linlin said. 

"I've cut you in pieces, froze you, and turned you to ashes." Josh almost threw up when he knew she assumed why she was naked. 

"May you allow me." Envy came to Josh, bent over, and took his shoe off. She stood up, and then, she slammed it down. 

"Emotional Damage!" she said. 

"Enough," Josh said. His emotions had been damaged for long enough. 

Linlin opened her hand, trying to summon her soul. 

"Looking for this." 

Josh opened his hand. An azure palm fog danced, and Linlin stared in awe. 

"Your soul… My Soul-Soul fruit!" Linlin expressed her stun. 

"Yeah," Josh said. "I've taken your power. Wanna fight me again." He raised his fist, and red lightning danced there. It was his Conqueror Haki. "I've to tell you, I'm way stronger than the last time we have fought." 

"How long was it?" Linlin clenched her fists.  

"I dunno. Four days maybe." 

She tried to jump at him, but Wrath appeared in front of her. He was so hot, hotter than Magma, and he created a wall between Linlin and Josh. 

"Careful, you may get burned, or cut into pieces." 

When the firewall was off, Linlin saw Josh in his demon form. Somehow, it gave her goosebumps. His face had been the last thing she had seen before her death. 

"What do you want from me? Why did you revive me, how!" 

"I want to make a deal with you, just like your kids." He said. "As for your last question, I simply flew to hell and fetched you back to the living world." 

Linlin nodded slightly. She smirked and said. "I see, you are regretting turning my offer down, and you want to make up for it." 

"My my!" Envy lifted the boot and slammed it to the ground again. 

Josh turned to Envy and opened his eyes, watching them with her combined beauty, before closing them again and turning to Linlin. 

"Couldn't resist." Envy shook her arms. 

"Anyway." Josh flapped his wings and floated a bit, reaching Linlin's face level. "I'll give you a chance, work under me, and you'll have the desire that you always have ever wanted. You can run your territory, but you take your orders from me. No tea parties as well." 

"And why should I work for you?" 

<<More More x225 Strength>>

Josh appeared above Linlin and he chopped with his hand down. Linlin crossed her arms above her head and clashed with his palm. When Linlin tried to push back, she found herself being forced down to her knees. 

Strong wings surged, and the clouds in the sky were split in half. 

Josh pressed down, and Linlin was on her knees. "I have to tell you, I have superior power, and I can kill you again." 

Linlin felt something that she had never felt. Fear and inferiority. In her whole life, no man had been strong enough for her. Not even the strongest giants could match her strength as a kid. 

But she was pushed to her knees now. 

Somehow, this inferiority felt sweet. Shaking, she retracted her hands while looking at his demon face. "What happened to my kids." 

"They are working for me," Josh said. 

"Hmm… what will I get for working for you. Will I be the Pirate King?" 

"Are you a dude?" 

"Pirate Queen, so be it." Linlin rolled her eyes. Somehow, Josh had enough power to make her act like a subordinate. 

"As for what you get, it's easy. The thing you desired. More power, and you'll be in your peak form." 

Josh flew back to his chair, turned into his human form, and reached his coat. 

"Devil Contract package. Choose the one that you like. We have vampires, indeed units, Body Peak…" 

"I'll take the one with Body Peak. The hunger surges have always been bothering me ever since I reached 50 years old." Linlin said. Josh threw a paper to her. 

'So, this is the contract.' She thought. 'The one that had removed the curse of Princess Shirahoshi.' 

Now, some may be wondering why Josh would need Linlin. 

Because she can do his dirty work, and she can easily manage a country. Not to mention she had a good network. 

"So, how does it work?" She asked. 

"Sign it with your blood." 

"Can't cut my skin, it's too tough." 

)"Okay." Josh vanished from his place. He then appeared facing her with his back, sheathing a katana. 

'So fast." Linlin thought. A moment later, a cut appeared on her finger, and a little blood spread. "Amazing!" She said, looking at her finger. "No wonder you could cut me in pieces."

Without a thought, she pressed on the contract.

"Emotional Damage!" 

"You need to perfect your timing… or it will get boring" Josh turned his head to Envy, who was looking at Linlin. 

"It's for me, not for you. She is young again." 

Josh turned his eyes slowly, not wanting to suffer another trauma. 

"Yeah, Body Peak make you young and give you extra strength and speed. Let's see… Holly Shit!" Josh opened his eyes widely. 

Instead of Big Mom, there was a giant hot girl with perfect curves, young skin, long pink hair, big boobs, flawless skin, high cheekbones, full lips, and sharp eyes. 

"Why do I look like I was in my thirties." Linlin touched her chest. 

"Envy," Josh said, not closing his eyes this time.

"Yes." Envy nodded. 

He lifted his leg, showing her his boot. "Do it for me this time?"  

"So, I should call you master from now on." Linlin put her hands on her waist. According to the contract, Josh is in control of her life and can take it with a snap. Not to mention, if she tried to disobey him, she will end up tortured. Josh had made every possible condition to assure his control. 

"Not at all. Wear your clothes." He turned his head. "Greed, call Baccarat here and tell her to gather the people of this island." 

"Yes, Master." A yellow energy demon floated away. 

"Alright, I'll be leaving," Linlin said. 

"Wait," Josh called. 

One of the reasons he revived Linlin was that he had so many Devil Fruits but no one good enough to have them. 

He reached his pocket and threw one at her. 

Linlin cringed when she saw it. "I may go berserk if the taste is as bad as they say." 

"I'll make sure to calm you," Josh replied. 

Linlin closed her eyes at ate. "Eww…" 

"Congruatilaiton. You have Magma Magma fruit."
