Chapter 315: The prisoner's request

"So…where is this 'dangerous person' who took such good care of my friends?" Vivi asked the terrified group of guards.

"Hey!, what is going on here?!" A rough-looking man with no shirt and a sword approached the group.

"Uwa, stay away from her!" One of the guards warned him.

"Yes, we need to wait for the Boss!, they already went to call-" Another guard started talking but someone else covered his mouth in a hurry.

"Shut up you idiot!"

"Mmm so who is this Boss your buddies went to call?" Vivi asked.

The shirtless swordsman turned to look at her with a frown.

"Why are you all so scared of this scrawny girl?" He glanced toward Luffy and Zoro.

"Those two look more dangerous, but Lord Dobon should be able to handle them. There is no need for Master Queen to crush this ant…I'll handle her."

"Queen…is that the one?" Vivi ignored the approaching swordsman and moved her eyes to the group of guards.

"Where is she?"

"M-Master Queen…is a he, but…" One of them said with hesitation.

"The Master is not here!" Another one shouted.

"Hey, don't ignore me!, you bitc-"

The big swordsman called Uwa became unable to speak when Vivi grasped his throat with her hand.

This one had stretched like it was made of rubber and reached its height with no problem.

When she was about to finish the job…a series of bullets impacted her body.

"That's enough!, release him immediately!." 

One of the initial guards came running with someone at his side. A tanned muscular man with six legs and purple leather pants.

"Is the Vice Warden!"

"Master Daifugo!"

"Sorry, I couldn't contact Master Queen but I was able to send a message to Onigashima. I also brought Master Daifugo with me." The guard told his companions.

""Hmph!, there was no need to go that far. That one is already close to death." The six-leged man pointed to Vivi.

"My bullets contain a highly contagious and deadly virus!. Is only a matter of time now..."

"What?! "

"You used that?!"

"What if we get infected?"

The guards shouted.

"Vivi, what's going on?." Luffy came running.

"That hippo guy won't come out to talk with us."

Vivi first slammed the head of the man she was holding against the ground, creating a massive crack.

"Apparently, someone attacked Usopp and Robin when they got here. I was trying to find out who it was."

"Wait?, are they okay?" Luffy did not seem to care about the man she had knocked down.

"We are fine." Robin came walking out of the cell with Usopp at her side.

"Hmph…looks like you took a beating." Zoro glanced at the Usopp's face.

This one smiled.

"Nothing I can't handle!. Ouch!" He almost fell down.

"Shishishi, that's my crew!." Added Luffy.

"But I also want to know who did this." He turned around to look at the group of guards with a serious expression.

"Wait a minute!" The six-legged man called Daifugo yelled at them and pointed at Vivi.

"How are you still okay?. I shoot you with the most potent toxin I have. No one can resist it!"

"Whoa, that guy has six legs!" Luffy pointed.

"There are a lot of Zoan users in this country for what it seems," Zoro said.

"Wasn't Doflamingo working on creating artificial devil fruits?." Robin asked.

"I would assume is related to this situation.."

"So those fellows we encountered before, were fake devil fruit users?. Like that snake man or the Llama man." Luffy recalled.

"I think it was an alpaca…but never mind that. Those guys were useless." Vivi commented.

"Yes, like this hippo guy." Zoro pointed his sword at the pink hippo who was yet to move or open its mouth.

"Dont ignore me!, I demand an answ-" The six-legged man was interrupted by an ice bullet through his skull.

"Or this spider guy…" Vivi recalled the ice bulled back and made it spin around her finger.

"Whoudlnt he be Spiderman then?" Zoro asked.

"NO!" Was Vivi's answer.

"H-He was a scorpion actually…" One of the guards dared to point out.

"Come on Viv, there is no need to kill these weaklings," Luffy told her with a frown.

She shrugged.

"As you wish, Captain." The truth was that she only killed that one because his ability was quite dangerous. Even though she had brushed off the toxins inside her body, she could feel that they were very potent. The only reason they had no effect on her was because she didn't possess a normal human body and was instead using a construction made of water.

"We probably should go to the rendezvous point to meet with everyone else. There is no need to remain here for much longer." Robin advised.

"Yes, if they had informed the higher that we are here…we can expect them to send some seriously powerful people to take us out!" Usopp told them.

"That's fine, we can fight them all !" Luffy clenched his fist.

"I agree with Robin. We better go find the rest. If Kaidou comes here with his entire crew, that may be problematic. Is best if we make a proper plan of attack once we are all together." Vivi told him.

"Now you want to plan?" Zoro chuckled.

"Excuse me, but…" A group of prisoners approached them. They were being led by an old man.

"Do you mind if we go out with you?"

"Huh?, aren't you guys criminals? you want us to help you escape?" Luffy asked. But didn't seem to be judging them.

"We have indeed been declared criminals by the current government. Men whose spirit has been broken… warriors beaten into submission. But…" The old man clenched his fist.

"Our will shall not be halted until we are dead!" The old man shouted while showing his tattoos.

"That doesn't really tell us much…" Vivi commented in a low voice.

"I think they may be part of some old revolutionary army who fought against the current government and lost," Robin told her.

"We have seen that a few times already."

Usopp got closer and whispered. "Right…so we should stay clear from them. That would only bring more attention t-"

"You look very cool !. Wanna join my crew?" Luffy offered the old man.
