3 Worst Day

Currently, on the other side of the island.

Rowing a small boat. Lawliet arrived at the cliff on the opposite side of the port of the island.

It's a place where people rarely visit, and most of those people who are coming there, are ending their lives by jumping on the cliff.

Under this cliff, behind the sharp rocks pointing upwards, and stalactites.

A small cave that is hard to perceive if not looked carefully will be seen. It's small and cramped. This is Lawliets entrance to his hideout.

Lawliet landed on a small rock platform inside the cave, and lifted the boat he used to the platform before tying it to a rock. Then he grabbed some sacks on the boat, and enter the cave carrying the sacks.

Inside the cave. Lawliet light up his improvise flashlight, and walks deeper in the cave. After a while, he ends up in a stairs leading upwards. Then he climbed it, and arrived at the front of a thick wooden old door, designed in old ages.

He entered it, and ended up in a dark room, that seemingly unused for a very long time by how thick the moss is in the walls and ground pavements.

Lawliet theorized that this small room is a basement of the ruined cathedral above the ground. And that no one managed to discover this place, because of the tree that suddenly spurts on the trapdoor that leads here and also because of the thick broken debris blocking the way down here.

Besides Lawliet a small metal box the size of a bucket will be seen. Lawliet kicked it, then pulled the lever besides him, making the lights on the room flicker and light up.

Now with lights open, a bunch ot things will be seen inside the room. A bed made of rugs, crates filled with scraps, and a working table with bunch of things besides it.

This is Lawliet's Bat cave. Although the things here are not so high quality and high tech, no one knows about this place making it an ideable place to make a hidden hideout.

Lawliet sit on the working table. In the working table, a small black board with golden lines, and different apparatuses will be seen. It's a computer chip.

(A/N: or board. Actually I don't know anything about computer! ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯)

And if you ask why he needs a computer instead of high tech weapons, then let me enlightened you.

Without Computers, all of those High Tech Advance Technologies you think, like Mark armors(Iron Man), Lightsaber's, Gundams or Giant Mechs all of those things are impossible to build without Computers.

You can say that Computers are the very base of these Technologies, and without it, they are impossible to exist.

Also, if you ask why Lawliet has been trying to build a Computer instead of buying it, or stealing it if he doesn't have any money.

Well he did, Lawliet has been trying to find a computer here since the moment he woke up here in the world of Pirates. He visited the Marines, the Blackmarket, some Shadow Organization, yet until now he didn't find any.

"What the fuck is wrong with this world?!!!"

"There's a Cyborg's, Ancient Weapons, Devil Fruit Laboratories, yet they didn't have a. . . Single. Fucking. Computer!!!" He cursed back then, after he search the whole Spider Miles for computers.

He did find some Monitors while searching, but the 'Fucking Computer' here has been change to Fucking snails, who he didn't have any knowledge about. Leaving him here right now, trying to build a computer, starting to a single Computer Board. (A/N or Chip)

But, while he's laying the thin molded gold like a paper that he cooled off yesterday. The light in the room suddenly disappeared, startling him, making him jump to his chair, stumble on something and fall on the floor something.

"Ahh! Shit! What the hell!" He cursed, while crawling in the dark.

Blackouts is a common occurence here in he's Bat cave. Losing power suddenly is because of his unstable Battery that he made from scraps and waste from the chemicals in the waste plants here.

'This is just temporary' he thought back then, when building the Battery, thinking that using his knowledge he can immediately gather some money, to buy resources to build a more stable one.

But, It's already half a month, and he is still using it. The battery is already full of rusts, and any time now the power it have may already diminished.

The lights in the room flickered, then bit by bit, it's glow is starting to brighten up.

"Ahh, Thank God it's still have power." He muttered looking up at the light bulbs.

Then he stood up, and walked towards his work bench.

*Crick!*

A crunchy sound of something breaking echoed in his ears. He looked down and his eyes lose their lights.

He stepped on the computer chip he's building, completely breaking it to several pieces.

"Fuck!" He cursed. And as if the Gods are mocking him, the light on his room started to brighten until it cannot hold the power anymore and exploded.

"..."

It's really the worst day he ever had.

. . .

The next day. Lawliet visited the Market at the Port of Spider Miles.

He already made up his mind to meet this guy who can help him in business and resources.

Although the gambles are too big and may possibly lead him to his death, he just can't take it anymore, that's the third time he's been trying to build a computer chip, In a month, and it's also been destroyed.

Actually he already knows that building a sophisticated thing like a computer is impossible using the equipment he has in his Bat cave.

He just wanted to try to build it, since he knows that he's living inside of a fiction, he wanted to know if he can also get lucky and managed to build it. It's a world of fiction, and laws don't exist here right.

But it seems like fiction doesn't work that way.

"Damn Novels, making me believe that nothing is impossible in the World of Fiction!" He cursed.

And if he really managed to convince this guy to help him, material and resources will no longer be a problem to him.

He will have more time to build some pending projects, and upgrade his equipment, and if possible, he can also find the Devil Fruit he's been looking.

That Devil Fruit is very important in his projects, without it, many projects like Mark armors, Gundams, and Giant mechs will be immediately garbage, although he can still continue those projects, it will take a long time without that specific fruit that he's been looking.

And also. . . The fruit have a eater in the series, that's why he really need to immediately find it.

If not just for the consequence, he will immediately look for this Guy to help him.

While roaming around the market looking for this specific guy that can help him, he met several Pirates, Thieves and Bandits on his way. But they are not causing such a ruckus for now, even though there's no presence of any Marines nearby.

Batman just attacked last night, and beat a Pirate again.

Although mysterious and never been saw by anyone except for his targets. Batman has quite a reputation.

You see, Spider Miles is like Gotham. Pirates, Thieves, etc. are a common thing here.

Wherever you look in public areas, you will met a criminal in one way or another.

But ever since Batman appeared here, and became the Dark Knight, beating numerous criminals who have a quite of reputation.

The remaining Criminals here became much more aware of their surroundings.

At first they ignored it, then he attacked again they still ignored it.

The third time they were quite bothered, but still ignored it.

But the fourth time is quite different, two small organizations who have quite a reputation joined together to confront the Batman.

These guys wants revenge and to stop the Batman for ruining their business.

They brought at least a hundred and twenty men to hunt the Batman. But it didn't end well.

All who participated in the hunt became a nutcase. Yelling the next day about the 'Devil' Batman.

And because of that, these criminals became afraid of him.

They became much more careful and aware of their surroundings.

They don't want to become the next meal for the mysterious Batman.

Dying is scary, getting caught is scary, but being the next target for the Bat.

Now it's worst than dying and getting caught. The Batman will not kill you, yes. But leaving you alive with a broken mentality making you a crackhead fool sicko with no possibility of curing.

I think dying is much much better than being a nutcase, right?

But, not everyone think so.

*Bam!*

A man has been thrown out from one of the stores in the market.

This grabs Lawliet's attention and the other near bystanders.

They walk near towards the store and watch on the sidelines.

Inside the store, a shirtless man with a plumpy belly, that jumps on every move the man do will be seen being hold by his subordinates.

"Boss! Calm down! We don't want to be targeted by the Bat!"

"Shut up! I'm not afraid of the Bat! I'm Asshol The Fearless Juggernaut! And not a pussy like everyone here, what a shame to be branded on their level." He said in a mocking tone, eyeing the nearby looking thugs with a sneer.

But contrary to the law of nature, the thugs just ignored him and looked at him as if he was a huge fool himself. They even have a small grin plastered on their face, as if they're laughing at him.

"But, Boss! Still, The Bat. What if he shows up?" The subordinate of the guy ask him.

Hearing this, Asshol looks at his subordinates with questioning gaze.

'Are you serious?'

"Then I'm going to beat him." He said with a deep serious voice.

"And that happening is almost null." He continued, in a much lighter tone.

"The Bat is afraid of showing himself, afraid of exposing his identity. And if there's a chance he did show up." He suddenly laughed.

"Wawawawawa! He will seriously get ganged up by these people, and his chance of escaping is almost impossible in this broad daylight. Wawawawa!"

The subordinate who's near him just sweatdrop at his remark.

Then, a distinct laugh roared at the back of the sidelines.

"Furfurfurfur!" Hearing this laugh, Lawliet immediately turn his head to look at this person.

A unusual height that towers the other, a purple shade that hides his never shown eyes in the series, and a pink feather fur jacket that is only distinct to him.

Donxiote Doflamingo.

Captain of the Donxiote Pirates.

A Future Warlord.

The man he's been looking for.
