Chapter 43

"Uhm.. Master?" Queen asked as she saw Vox spacing out for a long time. Snapping out of his system's interface. Vox looked at the 3 in front of him. Then he looked at the guards.

"Out." With a single cold word Queen waved her hand towards the guards, leaving the hall empty. Vox walked in front of the 3 people chained in Sea Prism Stone shackles.

"You have 3 options, enslavement, willing cooperation or death." The 3 looked at him in disdain.

*Pftew* One of the two males spat at him, tho his tongue was instantly severed by Queen with a wave of her hand.

"Lowly scum, how are dare y-" Queen was about to rage but was cut off by Vox.

"Enough." He then crouched in front of the man, put his hand on his head and "Bliskem, Death Row." a surge of electivity came out of his hands. But his lightning was controlled to avoid any major damages to major organs or the brain. After an agonizing 5 minutes only the slight breathing of the man indicated that he was still alive.

"Now, how about we talk like civilized people ^-^" The other two shuddered at the his smile. But the remained silent.

"So? speak. What is your choice?"

"..."

"..."

Vox smiled even more seeing them not respond. He then put his hand on the other man's head and proceeded to do the same thing. Making sure to have him scream as much as possible so that the womans will may shake a bit.

After he was done with him, he was disappointed to see the scared, but resolute light in the womans eyes. Shaking his head at how stupid he was for even trying to break the will of a wielder of an Conqueror Haki user. He could go and let the woman be subjected to torture that is much worse than he could even imagine, Curran is very good at imagining those things anyway. But, he still has his morals left, though they seem to be more cloudy then they were before. Vox sat in front of the woman and looked her in the eyes.

"I am not gonna lie, you interest me... No, your devil fruit interests me. I want to give you a choice. It is up to you to accept it or not." He said and waited for her to replay. Which was almost instantaneous.

"What choice?" Her melody like voice made Vox's heart beat faster but he controlled himself.

"Work for me for 5 years, afterwards I will return your freedom and your island will be back in your control, that is, if you don't want to work for me afterwards."

"Never." She replied resolutely, just the thought of her serving a man disgusted her. Vox could read her thoughts a bit from her ugly and disgusted expression, his lip twitched but he once again, controlled himself. Though it was getting harder.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. You will pretend to fall in love with a celestial d-"

"NEVER! I WILL NOT-"

"DID I PERMIT YOU TO SPEAK!?" Vox flipped as she once again interrupted him. A powerful invisible force erupted from his body making even the strong willed woman fall flat on the ground, barely conscious. Even Queen winced a bit, but that was all.

"..."

A deadly silence took place as Vox himself was looking coldly at the woman on the ground. Unknowingly, ruling over a Mafia Family, having many armies, his mentality slowly has been changing and what was once impossible for him, was now in his grasp.

Such transformation is not possible under normal circumstances, but Vox is anything but ordinary. As he calmed down a bit, he realized what he did and was surprised.

Remembering his action towards that pirate when he first arrived in this world, only disgust appeared on his face. Logically speaking, it was his best chance at survival, but now, if he were to face the same option again. He would rather die. Shaking his head out of his thoughts, Vox coldly spoke to the barely conscious woman.

"If I don't say speaks then you will shut your mouth. If I do not permit you to stand, then you will sit on the ground. I will not repeat myself again. clear?"

"..."

"CLEAR!?" Vox shouted coldly as another massive erupting of force swept towards the woman, pinning her back to the ground. Hearing no response after a while, Vox became angry and more pressure applied to the woman. In the end she somehow nodded her head and Vox retracted his pressure.

"See, it was not that hard now was it? Stay like that and don't resist. If you resist I will kill every single living thing from Riska in front of your eyes and then have you experience torture for until the day you die. Though, I doubt there is any torture worse than losing your people. So be obedient." After he spoke he took out Change of Heart Spell Card.

He originally did not want to use it, but unlike with Bonny, her situation is different. the more infatuated she is with him, the more she will be loyal. Though he very much hoped that her infatuation was transferred to loyalty instead. 'I will look for a partner when I am done clearing the pests of this planet. Until then, got to remain focused.' Vox thought as the card activated. The golden light entered The womans body but it started to disperse out, showing sign of failure. If he did not do anything she would resist it and he would waste such a good card.

So Vox replied his pressure, Conquerors Haki, on her. "Go get the people closest to her from Riska, I will kill them as an appetizer." He said to Queen who nodded and left. The woman however shivered and the golden light stopped coming out of her body. Vox smiled at that sight.

"See? not that hard is it? I will still keep my promise, 5 Years and you are free to go. If you still want to that is." A devilish smile formed on his lips, how can he be willing of letting such a Fruit user free? If she really chose to leave, he would kill her or take her fruit with DNA Transplant, depending on which is more attractive to him at that time.

While the woman was slowly having a, Change of Heart(Ba dum tss) Vox looked at his Exodia Pieces. 'I will use this later, I promised Samuel... Let's just hope that Exodia can help with it.'

After 5 minutes, the golden light dissapeared and the woman looked at Vox differently. Before, her looks contained hate, frustration, killing intent, and many more negative emotions. But now, it was Worship and Loyalty, interesting enough, no infatuation or lust could be seen. 'I am becoming an Emotion reader from eye contact. I guess reading people becomes easier when you experience so much in a few years.'

"Master, I am sorry for my previous behavior. I never realized you greatness and disrespected you, allow me to atone by cutting of my arm." She said and hardened her hand with haki and was about to chop at her own arm. Vox hurriedly stopped her and was sweating bullets.

'Fuck! I knew these cards are evil! What the hell is this now!?' Cursing in his head, he hastily said.

"It's okay! Don't worry!" 'Fuck, if you cut your arm, your charm will go down! I need you to charm those fucking dragons. idiot' Vox then helped her stand up.

"Here is your assignment, rest up for a few days then head to Sabaody Archipelago and charm a celestial dragon to take you as your wife. Afterwards use him as the face to charm higher ranked Celestial Dragons. But be careful. Probe first with your natural charm before using any of your devil fruit abilities. We don't know how deep their secrets are hidden."

"Master..."

"Also take this Den Den Mushi and contact me. It is a camouflaged type and can only connect to my personal one." Vox handed her a Den Den Mushi, it was very small and easy to hide in many *places*.

"Master..."

"Oh and remember to send me weekly reports and-"

"Master... can I charm a woman instead?" She said with rosy cheeks. Which made Vox's heart beat so rapidly that the blood flowed elsewhere.

"W...why not a man?" Vox stuttered a reply while trying to calm his nerves and heartbeat. 'This damn fruit!'

"I am gay." She meekly said with a head like a tomato.

'The diversity in our Family is going places alright. And S and M pair, Gay, Loli lovers, Milf lovers, Flying creatures, robot lovers, Experiment subjects, abandoned people, a reincarnated and fuck, what else? Well, Diversity is good right?'

"Master..."

"Ah? Yes?" Vox came out of his thoughts and looked at the woman in front of him looking at him expectantly.

"Yes, sure, as long you get the job done. Do how you want to achieve it." he said while scratching his head.

"Master..." She said meekly, her blush intensifying to unhealthy levels.

"Yes?" Vox asked, but nothing came out of her. After a bit he realized, he doesn't even know her name... "What is your Name?"

She instantly revealed a smile so beautiful that Vox could barely hold himself from jumping on her and giving her a kiss just because that damn smile almost broke his willpower.

"My name is Aliza Lockheart."

"O..k..e... L..leave now... I have business... H..urr.y!" Vox stuttered as he turned and walked towards his chair with difficulty, Aliza cocked her head to the side in confusion, if Vox saw her, he might just fuck all and jump on her. But he was not given the chance as she left to attend to her mission.

Vox stood alone in the hall as he slumped on his chair. "Balance, I need to balance it. If only Night Wing were here." Night Wing's figure flashed across his mind and his let a out a smile that even he did not see it. But Queen who just entered did but she attributed it to his success in gaining a powerful spy.

Vox then took out the 5 Exodia pieces and summoned them one by one.

When all the pieces were summoned, an invisible force attracted the parts into a star shape. The Left Hand of the Forbidden One, The Right Hand of the Forbidden One, The Left Leg of the Forbidden One, The Right Leg of the Forbidden one and lastly, Exodia The Forbidden One.

As they set in their respective position a magic circle appeared, illuminating the whole hall, then 2 hands held the side of the magic circle and pulled itself out. His left leg came out, golden and ancient, the Aura made the whole island tremble and every being felt dread from it. 2 Two hands pulled and slowly a head came out, it looked like a mighty god of ancient times. Soon the complete body was out of the Magic Circle, but was in chains that were connected to the inside of the magic circle.

Vox felt a heavy pressure coming from Exodia, the pressure was so much that if it had the slightest intention, he was sure that he would die without even knowing how.

"State your Wish, Mortal." Exodia booming Voice sounded through the whole Island, but only Vox understood what he said. Calming his nerves, Vox started speaking.

"I Wish for my Cards be able to became real living beings if I were to allow it." Vox was certain he would be able to summon him again. Now, he has a promise to fulfill, and he also felt like he would make someone very sad if he did not so this.

"Denied! Your Wish needs restrictions, The System can't be changed too much even with my power." Exodia's booming Voice at first disappointed Vox, but he soon felt relieved once he heard the rest.

"Then I want a Function that can turn Monster Cards into Permanent living creatures if monsters of Equal or higher Level, Attack, Defense were given as tribute."

"Denied, More restrictions are needed."

'FUCK!? MORE? UGH' Vox was speechless but then he thought about it and realized, he has so many monster cards, that making some like Night Wing Permanent would be too easy.

"Then make it require 5 times of each total."

"Denied, more restrictions are needed, Mortal, stop wasting my time and make your wish or I will assume you wish for me to leave." Exodia looked at Vox with disinterest. The Magic Circle was flickering, it must require a lot of power to come to this real.

"How about this, add a restriction that makes the cards resets to a normal human of this planet's standard level of power."

"This Wish can be granted, although barely. You are lucky Mortal." Exodia's eyes shone in a blinding golden light and he soon was pulled back in the Magic Circle by those chains. Afterwards the magic circle collapsed and no sign of Exodia or the 5 cards could be seen. Though Vox knew they were sent to the graveyard.

[Ding!

New option Added!

■Alive!

-Sacrifices needed equal or greater than: Level×5, ATK×5, DEF×5.

-Once a monster card becomes a real living thing, it's strength is back to the standard of a normal human in this world.

]

Vox smiled seeing that, without hesitation he also used DNA Surgery on himself and got rid of the Devil Fruit Weakness of the Rumble Rumble Fruit. He now will be capable of swimming, as the curse was lifted. That also means that he could in theory eat 1 more fruit like how the Fullbring kids were able to have their powers and the devil fruits.

This also mean that a New Rumble Rumble Fruit may be out in the world for grabs, though he is not certain.

Vox then looked at Queen and stood up. "Take care around here, when the news about the execution of Fire First Ace is announced, go to Sabaody Archipelago with some guards. Make sure you stay hidden as we don't want to attract unnecessary attention before the war."

"Yes, master." Queen said, Vox bodden his head and zapped outside to Heli. Sitting back on top of it's head Vox pointed at a direction.

"Let's go give Night Wing a present Heli. Let's go home." Vox smiled as closed his eyes to feel the wind.

"..." Heli stoos there in confusion.

"That way..." Vox pointed at the direction of Dawn Island in East Blue. "You still have not learnt the map Helli? It's fine, I am in a good mood today." Vox then watched behind him how the Skye Islands slowly distanced themselves.

"Hey Heli, have I sang the song 'Life is Good by Future? No? Let me sing it for you Heli, you are the only one that appreciates talent." Vox said and started singing.

High in the skye, a demonic ritual involving salty oil could be seen.
