captain's weakness

On top of one of the archipelago's trees, I and the whole world were watching a battle.

"Ah, my friend Luffy and his gang are fighting that robot I destroyed."

Watching the scene that was unfolding, Shanks and Garp turned their attention to the screen where Jason had appeared.

On the ground, the straw hats were fighting one of the pacifists and, working together, they had managed to defeat one of them.

"... They're still pretty weak."

Observing the group's happiness at defeating a pacifist, Luffy realized that the screen was focused on them and waved cheerfully to Jason.

"Hi, Jason, hahaha."

Seeing Luffy waving at me like a fool, I gave him a nod of recognition.

Everyone in his gang looked at me with mixed emotions. Some were looking at me calmly, others were tense at the power they had just seen and only Luffy was smiling at me.

"..." I simply pointed to the bridge that the Straw Hats would use to escape and everyone turned their necks in that direction.

"No! The bridge."

The bridge was destroyed by pacifists who came out of nowhere. From my inference, the straw hats didn't know kizaru, but sentomaru brought some extra pacifists to deal with the supernovas.

"Damn."

Sanji saw the bridge being destroyed right in front of him and couldn't do anything to stop it.

He tried to run somewhere else, but one of the pacifists shot a laser beam and blasted his way, causing him to be pushed by the blast wave.

"SANJI!"

Luffy looked at Sanji and realized that the situation was not good for him and his gang.

"Everyone! Just run. We can't defeat them now."

Luffy gave his order as captain and focused on escaping quickly.

Soon, the group split into three and ran off in several different directions.

I simply stared at them with no intention of getting involved.

"Sanji!"

Chopper, the group's doctor, noticed Sanji's dire situation as he was being crushed by a pacifist. In his mind's eye, he also saw Zoro and Usopp, who had also fallen when hit by a laser beam.

"Damn...! Everyone's falling." He quickly changed direction and started running towards Zoro and Usopp.

"You can't, Chopper!"

Robin shouted worriedly. His gaze unconsciously went in the direction of the man who had fought and defeated an admiral so easily. She was just looking at them with his arms crossed, with no intention of helping.

"Damn..."

Tears fell from Robin's eyes as he saw the desperate situation his crew found themselves in.

Chopper popped a yellow pill into his mouth after transforming into humanoid form.

"Guys, stop."

"Buuuuuu" quickly, he transformed into a giant creature, the same creature he transformed into in ennies lobby.

"Chopper!"

Nami couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"Buuuuuu" Chopper started destroying everything in front of him, not knowing how to tell friend from foe.

"Aren't you going to help them, Jason?"

A voice came from a tree next to Jason. It was Rayleigh, who was standing over his sword.

"It's not my job to help them now."

I said without looking at Rayleigh.

"Whose is it then?"

Rayleigh spoke with a serious expression. Was Jason referring to him?

"Wait... PX-3"

Just as one of the pacifists was ready to fire a laser at the out-of-control Chopper, a new voice appeared in the area.

"..." Rayleigh looked at the new voice and frowned slightly. He recognized that voice as the real Shichibukai, bartholomew kuma. Glancing at Jason, he noticed that the man was looking at the new character with a look of respect and pity. Do they know each other?

Feeling rayleigh's gaze on me, I said nothing and simply watched the straw hats suffer.

Kuma, the character with the most traumatic backstory in One Piece. The man hasn't had a moment's peace since he was born. Maybe I can do something for this suffering soul, since he's a great person and a kind and loving father.

Speaking of fathers, this reminds me of my beautiful children with my wives. Are they behaving well?"

"Hehe." A loving, benevolent smile appeared on my face, making the women of this world even more mesmerized by my beauty.

"What's so funny?"

"I thought you'd ask."

I replied automatically to Rayleigh and realized that he didn't quite understand.

"Anyway, don't worry too much about those sprouts. It'll be good for them."

Rayleigh looked at me for a few seconds to see if I was lying, but couldn't spot anything.

He just looked down and decided to trust this boy a little, after all, he's a haoshoku user and they're too proud to lie like that.

"So, you're still alive, Roronoa." Kuma took off his gloves as he uttered his words.

Zoro stood up with difficulty. "Thanks to your mercy." He said.

"Hey, this is no time to chat."

"If you were going on a trip, where would you like to go?" Kuma asked.

Before Zoro could say anything, he disappeared without a trace.

"... Eh?"

"... Zoro... Zoro."

"Zoro... Gone."

"What the hell did you do with Zoro? He was here a second ago." Usopp couldn't control himself at that moment.

"Buuuu!!!"

On the other hand, Chopper was still attacking everyone indiscriminately.

"Don't be silly, Chopper." Robin shouted, carrying the exhausted Luffy.

"Zoro! Where did he go?"

exclaimed Luffy.

"This must be a desperate situation for a captain, right, Rayleigh?"

"..."

Rayleigh was looking at the scene with frustration.

"Finally the real thing. He made Zoro disappear." Franky said hatefully.

"There's no mistake... I've seen this scene before."

Nami, who had seen this ability before, began to speak fearfully. "In Thriller Bark... He made a girl disappear like that, and she never came back... I wonder... What happened to her?"

"Where did you send Zoro? Say something! You bastard!"

Usopp shouted at Kuma, his usual fear gone for a moment.

But suddenly, the pacifist behind him began to muster laser attacks.

"You show up again and..."

"Usopp, look out, behind you." Sanji shouted, but was surprised by the next scene, where the pacifist disappeared in the same way that Zoro had.

"Don't get in my way." Said Kuma after sending the pacifist away.

"Eh? He even made his ally disappear."

"Everyone, get out of here!"

"Consider your next move when you're safe." Luffy shouted, addressing his crew.

"But Zoro..." Nami spoke up.

"Now is not the time for that! Let's go."

Franky replied.

"Let's go! The lightning hit you. Lean on my shoulder, quick!" Usopp tried to help Sanji as he was doing with Zoro, but suddenly, Kuma appeared in front of him, ready to send them on an all-expenses-paid trip.

"Careful, you two." Brook tried to shield them both with his body.

"Brook!"

"I'll protect you two! Even if it costs my life!"

"Ah, I'm already dead-" Brook disappeared before he could make his joke.

"Brook! Brook!" Usopp and Luffy were shocked.

At that moment, even people who didn't know the Straw Hat gang were feeling sorry for their situation. Some of the smarter ones realized that something was wrong with the situation.

"Damn it...! What the hell am I doing? Two of my comrades... Right in front of me!" While all this was going on, Sanji was blaming himself.

"Go, Usopp!"

"Don't be silly, we're going together!"

Usopp tried to hold Sanji back to stop him, but to no avail.

"Run, Sanji! Just run!"

Luffy exclaimed.

"Bloody bastard!" Sanji's kick was easily blocked and he was sent flying.

"Uwaaaah! He's coming this way, help! Special blow, gunpowder star." Usopp tried to save himself, but it was in vain. He disappeared from his spot like his colleagues.

"Usopp! Shit!

"..." Sanji also suffered the same fate.

"You bastard! Second gear!"

At this point, Luffy exploded in anger. But Kuma paid no attention to Luffy's anger and walked away, suddenly appearing in front of Franky and Nami.

"Owaahh, he's here now."

"Get out of our way! Strong right!" Franky attacked with force.

"No, Franky!" Nami tried to stop him, but...

"Franky!"

"Wait, Luffy, you're doing exactly what he wants!" Robin warned, but...

"Gomu gomu... Jet gun!"

Kuma blocked Luffy's punch, then patted his arm and Franky disappeared from his position.

"Franky!"

After that, he went after Nami and did the same.

"Luffy, help me-"

"Nami!!" Luffy was furious at that moment, desperately trying to reach kuma, but the latter simply ignored him and continued to send his companions away.

"Uooooooh" this time, Chopper's shout caught kuma's attention.

"Haah, haah, Chopper, Robin!!! Stop! Please! Stop!"

Luffy tried to catch up with them, but...

Chopper disappeared, then it was Robin's turn.

"Robin, go away!"

"Luffy!" Robin ran and tried to beg Luffy, but Kuma sent her away too!

Seeing this, Luffy was completely devastated.

"Cof, khhhu... Zeh... Hah.... Hah." Luffy continued to bang his head and fists on the floor, crying in despair.

"Uhhhhhh.... Why?"

"I couldn't save them... None of them!"

When only Luffy remained, Kuma approached him.

".

.." "..."

Kuma looked up, where he spotted Jason and Rayleigh, who seemed to be the straw hats' only allies on the battlefield. He also looked at the big screen that was apparently broadcasting everything to the world.

Turning his attention to Luffy, he finally said his last words:

"We won't meet again... Goodbye." Then he brushed against Luffy, making him disappear.

The whole place fell silent and a thick voice was finally heard.

"Grand line. Sabaody archipelago. Grove 12. On this day, the pirate crew led by Captain Monkey D. Luffy, 'the Straw Hat Pirates', was completely destroyed."

Everyone in the world looked at Jason and how he was speaking calmly as if he were some kind of narrator.

Jason instantly appeared in front of kuma and gave him a better look.

"Bartholomew kuma."

"... Jason D. Winchester."

The two stared at each other for a few seconds.

"Do you want to fight?"

Jason's golden ring turned into a sword and he pointed it at kuma.

"I didn't come here to fight you, Jason D. Winchester."

Kuma spoke in his usual monotone and indifferent voice.

"... Humm, we'll meet later, kuma."

I didn't press the issue and turned my back on Kuma. Rayleigh had already reached us and was looking at us curiously.

"Are you going to take part in this war, Rayleigh?"

I asked the old man, since he didn't seem to know that Ace was Roger's son.

"This war is between Whitebeard's pirates and the Navy, I have no intention of taking part in it."

Rayleigh said calmly. Although he and Newgate were of the same generation, they were rivals and there was no point in him putting himself at risk for a rival.

"Oh, so you're not going to try to stop the navy from executing the last descendant of Gol D. Roger?"

I asked with a mischievous smile, revealing one of the biggest secrets Sengoku was keeping.

"No... What!?"

Rayleigh was ready to deny it, but went into shock when he realized Jason's words.

"Ace of the Fire Fists. He's the son of the King of Pirates with a woman called Portgas D. Rouge."

I created a sphere and showed Rayleigh and the world a picture of a beautiful pregnant woman standing in a beautiful field of flowers.
