Become stronger!

"Disco, how long do I have to wait, iin?!" 

A large, overweight man with long, wavy, blond hair under a big red hat and wearing a large red shirt with swirly designs on it and a tail-like appendage on his back appeared to be very dissatisfied. 

"Please wait for a moment, Machvise-sama! I have all of my men and the support of other groups searching for him! I am sure that he will be caught as soon as possible!" 

Disco, the owner of the human auction house and who was also affiliated with the Doflamingo pirate, tried to wipe his cold sweat as he begged the large, overweight man, Machvise, that he would get the gift as soon as possible. 

"If you don't mind, please enjoy those luxury alcohols that I have collected while waiting. I will be sure to get that gift for you!" 

"You need to be in a hurry, iin." Machvise didn't refuse Disco and continued to drink the luxurious alcohol that was given to him. "If you want to get close to Young Master, you have to treat me well, okay, iin? You hear me, iin?" 

"Yes, Machvise-sama! I will do my best to serve you!"

While Disco lowered his head, his expression was that of disdain towards Machvise since, in his mind, their relationship was nothing but using each other, but then again, he also understood how dangerous Doflamingo was, so he had to be careful. 

As for Machvise? 

This stupid guy was nothing but a tool for him since Disco wanted to lower the protection house tax given by Doflamingo, so he tried to curry him a favor. Fortunately, he knew the way, and there was no need for them to hesitate as they knew what to do, but because of that, he had to urge his men. 

"BASTARD, HURRY UP AND FIND HIM! WHAT DID I PAY YOU FOR IF YOU CAN'T EVEN DO SUCH A SIMPLE JOB?!" 

"Y-Yes, Disco-sama!" 

"You should find him tonight, or else..." Disco's eyes narrowed at his men, and he said coldly, "You and your family will be sold as slaves." 

"—?!" 

Everyone's expression turned pale before they bowed their heads again and shouted, "YES, DISCO-SAMA!" 

"HURRY UP AND MOVE!" 

As everyone quickly scrambled to search for their target, Disco let out a helpless sigh, especially when he saw all the food and alcohol consumed by Machvise. Those with a strong body usually ate a lot, and those foods and alcohol were luxurious items, so there was no doubt it was painful to him to see Machvise consume those items like a barbarian. 

'Dammit!' 

However, Disco didn't lose his mind since money could be searched once again, but he only had one life. More importantly, he knew how strong Machvise was, and as someone who was chosen as the cadre of the Donquixote Pirates, this fatty wasn't weak! 

Yet, this was the fate of the weak; Disco knew that if he wanted to live well, he could only rely on Doflamingo. 

Still, as Disco lamented at how weak he was—

BOOOOMM! BOOOOMM! BOOOOMM!

Disco heard loud explosions, which startled him, but when he wondered what was happening, the most luxurious room where he stayed was bombarded. 

"What—?!" 

Yet, before Disco could do anything, his body was swallowed by an explosion, and he just died like that. Yes, he might be a shop owner, but even so, his body was like any other, weakling, and he died. 

Similarly, Machvise was dumbfounded, wondering what was happening, but before he could react, he was bombarded by explosions. 

BOOOOMM! BOOOOMM! BOOOOMM!

"What's happening?!" 

"Stop! Stop!" 

"What are you guys doing?!" 

At the same time, in other slave shops on this island, all of them were attacked by mobs. 

The people that Masa had controlled might have been a group of weaklings, but when thousands of them gathered, they had a great impact that made people feel pressured. 

Moreover, he made this attack at night when everyone was about to sleep or had already fallen asleep.

No one was prepared, but Masa had made his complete preparations. 

At the same time, he didn't feel guilty about killing those he had controlled, or rather, he made them perform a suicide bombing, exploding themselves with a bomb to destroy everything. 

At the same time, he also made those people let go of those slaves to make an even more chaotic situation in this place. 

Unfortunately, some of the slaves were chained or had a bomb-like device on their necks. 

There was nothing he could do about those types of slaves since, at this moment, he had to be careful and remain hidden so everything would be okay, especially when he thought about his next plan.

Using several cats as a connection to see the outside world, Masa remained underground, watching everything as he controlled his thousands of puppets to destroy everything. 

Fortunately, this was a lawless area, so no Marines would come to this place, and even if there was a mess, no one would come. Instead, all of them would remain hidden, thinking that there was a war among the criminals and just hoping the conflict would end as soon as possible. 

Yet, some people, especially those with strong power, were stunned when all of them saw what was happening. 

"What's happening?" 

An elderly man with a powerful body looked at this scene of carnage with confusion. 

"Rayleigh." 

A beautiful woman with short hair and revealing clothes quickly approached the man's side. 

"Shakuyaku." 

Rayleigh's expression became awkward when he saw this woman as she was his wife. More importantly, he had been away for so long, playing around with so many women, and hardly went home. 

However, Shakuyaki didn't bother to mention her husband's bad hobby. Instead, she was more cornered about the chaos before her. "Do you think it is a Devil Fruit user?"

"Probably..." 

"Probably?" 

"Some Haki users can control people, too." 

"....." Shakuyaki. 

"Then?" 

"Let's not do anything." Rayleigh shook his head and said, "I can't find that person, and more importantly, it isn't a bad thing, and you know? It was like in the past, right?"

He felt that this wasn't a bad thing as the lawless area could be cleaned up, and more importantly, it wasn't worth it to offend such a powerful and cunning person. 

In this world, there were many strong people, but smart people were rare, and even if one existed, they were weak. 

So, if this smart person was strong, what would happen? 

Rayleigh was too lazy to get involved in this problem. 

"Past?" Shakuyaku thought for a moment and recalled the memory of the past, which made her expression soften. "...are you going home?" 

"Yeah, it's been a while since I accompanied you." Rayleigh flashed a bright, strange smile as he wrapped his hand around his wife's waist. "Come on. Let's go back." 

Shakuyaku snorted, but she didn't refuse. Instead, her buttocks twisted strangely, yet lewdly, as if she was expecting something. 

At the same time, Masa, who had been moving around the underground, made a path by opening one zipper after another to steal many treasures, money, and many important things from those shops. 

After all, during this situation where no one was sure whether they could stay alive or not, who thought to protect their wealth? 

So, Masa worked hard to steal all of them, and at the same time, he tried, wondering whether he could open a zipper into his body to keep all of that wealth. 

In other words, he hoped to create something similar to a dimensional pocket. 

After all, whenever he opened the zipper, what was shown inside was a dark space, and as expected, he could keep something inside.

If there was a reason to explain all of this, he had to say it because there was an aspect of "pocket" on the jacket, which made this possible. However, as he had to keep everything inside his body, he had to bear the weight of those treasures, yet for him, whose body had been strengthened due to the Devil Fruit and the combination of Masa from DxD and Mahouka, he had become much, much stronger. 

"Help me..." 

Still, when he was about to steal and keep everything inside his body, he turned after he heard a voice. There was a large cage and a creature inside. This creature wasn't a human. Instead, it was something like an animal, but it could talk like a human. 

Or rather, this creature was like a human but with furry mammalian features.

"Mink tribe?" 

Masa remembered this unique race from One Piece and didn't expect to meet this kind of race in this place. However, when he thought that this was a place where many slaves were sold, he felt that it was normal to see a mink tribe or two. 

"Please kill me..." 

A lion-like man had his body beaten up, and he knew that he couldn't live any longer. Moreover, what awaited him was nothing but torment and nightmares, so he might as well ask others to kill him. Yet, due to his strong physical ability, he would live for a little longer and couldn't die immediately. 

If so, then wasn't it better to die right away? 

Masa looked at the pleading eyes of the Mink Tribe for a moment, then granted his wish. 

"You don't have to worry. I will give you your revenge." 

"Thank you..." 

The Mink Tribe died with a peaceful smile, and as soon as he died, Masa took a deep breath and decided to devour him, making the Mink Tribe man part of him. 

As soon as the Mink Tribe was inside his body, Masa could feel a new power within his body. 

Not only did his physical ability grow stronger, but powerful electricity suddenly exuded from his body, and he knew that he had gained the special power of the Mink Tribe, Electro, which was an innate race ability of the Mink Tribe that made them able to use a powerful bio-electricity. 

Similar to the Isshiki Family of Masa from the world of Mahouka, whose specialty was bio-electricity-related magic, but the Electro was even more powerful since the physical of the Mink Tribe were different from a magician in the world of Mahouka. 

Still, there was no doubt that Masa from the world of Mahouka owed him, he thought. 

At the same time, he had become stronger, but this wasn't enough. 

"HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME, IIN! I WILL KILL ALL OF YOU, IIN! DIE, IIN!" 

As Masa heard this loud, angry voice, he knew that there was another chance for him to grow stronger, and of course, he wouldn't let this chance go.

Maybe some of you can guess what his next Devil Fruit is? 

Also, what do you think of Alvida?
