Dragon Sorcerer In One Piece

Chapter 42 - Smile and Punishment

10 Days Later,

After 'Sound of End Time' was first heard, many tried to interpret the source and its meaning as it was a worldwide event. Only a few knew the cause and withheld the information because the person who caused this has the potential to change the balance of world power between Yonko, Navy and 7 Warlords of the Sea.

While the world was in a panic, many things happened during the 10 days between David and Kaido. This is the timeline of what happened.

-------------

15 Minutes After the Explosion,

"You are indeed strong, it's a shame you don't work for me. How about it? Join my crew and I will give you the seat in the All-Star." Kaido said to David as he returned to human form and dust himself off. Meanwhile, David also was back into his human form as he dusts himself off.

"No, I rather see Big Mom dance with Whitebeard while Shanks plays violin than join you." David rejected Kaido's offer as he drew his long sword.

"THEN YOU WILL DIE BY MY HAND!" Kaido angrily yelled with kanabō in his hand and once again two fighters continued the fight.

-------------

4 Days After the Explosion,

"For the Administrator's sake! Why don't you just fall? It's been four whole days!" David said to Kaido after he struck Kaido's head with Gideon, the sacred Warhammer from Seven Deadly Sins.

"You can't kill me with that little hammer, punk. If you don't want to join my screw, how about you marry my daughter, Yamato?" Kaido scratched his head as he gave a different offer to David.

"Yamato? Is she cute or does she look more like you?" David asks Kaido even though he already knows who Yamato is. Yamato is indeed a beauty in her own right but she is strong and dangerous as her father but also she is self-proclaimed 'Oden' which her dream is to open the border of Wano just like Kozuki Oden did.

"Are you calling my daughter ugly? Of course, she is cute, she is my daughter!" Kaido once again raged and transformed into a dragon and proceeded to fire multiple Heat Breath at David.

"I didn't say she is ugly, I said 'does she look like you'!" David shouts back to Kaido as he teleports behind the dragon to hit him again with Gideon.

-------------

7 Days After the Explosion,

"Ok, ok. Time out. How about you and I just talk this over with barrels of sake?" David said to Kaido as he showed a time out hand sign to him. David isn't tired or anything but fighting for 7 days is mentally exhausting even for an immortal.

"Do you have good stuff or some cheap shit?" Kaido asked David with curiosity as he was wishing for a sake. He did bring his sake gourd but it was destroyed when his and David's punch clashed a few days ago.

"Of course I have good stuff. I don't do cheap stuff when it comes to food and drinks." David said to Kaido as he pulled out barrels of alcohol and foods from his inventory.

"Ok, let's take a break for now. After that, I will capture you." Kaido grabs one of the barrels and starts drinking it.

"Wait, what happened to the whole killing me and stuff?" David asked him while pouring himself a drink.

"I decided that you are strong enough to join my family. So I will capture you and you WILL marry my daughter." Kaido said to David as he grabbed the second barrel of sake.

-------------

8 Days After the Explosion,

"What do you mean you WON'T marry my daughter! We even shared sake for it!" Kaido once again erupts with rage the moment David tells him he won't marry Yamato.

"I'm still 17 and you can't expect me to settle down to be a family man when I barely escaped Big Mom's wedding plan," David explains it to Kaido but Kaido being stubborn refuses to hear it.

"That is why you have to marry my daughter," Kaido said as he finished the last barrel of sake. Kaido, forgetting about the whole fight, started talking about making the strongest pirate group and tried to make David his son-in-law.

"Look, I'm sort of a Whitebeard's son, so I don't think you want me as your son-in-law." David finally used the 'Son of Whitebeard' as an excuse as he explained it to Kaido.

"You? One of the sons of that old man? I will have to talk to him about this." After hearing it, Kaido starts to change into Eastern Dragon and about to fly. David sees this jump into action as he tries to stop Kaido from flying away.

"Damn it, you old reptile, I'm not marrying your daughter even if I wasn't the son of Whitebeard." A thunderstorm starts to gather as lightning starts to strike the dragon in the sky.

-------------

9 Days After Explosion,

"Ok, here is the deal. Maybe, I will say again. I will 'Maybe' marry your daughter after a few years. I still have a business to take care of like ruling the underworld, so as of now, let's call it a day." Hades (David) said to Kaido as both of them were sitting on the ground and started to negotiate.

"Sure, we will put a pin to that. By the way, I didn't know you were the boss of the underworld. I thought you were a regular merchant or something. Now, I really want you to marry my daughter." Kaido spoke with excitement after learning Hades (David) is the ruler of the Underworld. This meant that Kaido now has a better chance of obtaining the Zoan devil fruits directly from the black market.

"I said maybe. But yea, I was on my way to see you when you blew up my ship." Hades said with frustration in his voice as he remembered how it was destroyed.

"Worororo, who could have expected that a single ship in the middle of the sea was owned by King of the Underworld?" Kaido laughs as he slaps the group as small bits of tears come out of his eyes as he continues to laugh out loud.

"You can repay me the damage by accepting my offer," Hades said to Kaido with little hope in his heart believing that he can finally reason with this muscle head.

"No, I will give you my offer. I want devil fruits, more specifically, I want Zoan devil fruits for my crew members. Give me what I seek and I will hear what you want from me." Kaido went serious face as he didn't give a room and put his foot down, not giving an inch.

"Wait, you destroyed my ship and now you are making a demand? Fine, I will get you Zoan devil fruits but I want exclusive access to Wano for myself and my associates to do business. I will also give you 30% of the business profit each month." Hades explains to Kaido, giving the same offer given to Big Mom before.

"Only 30 percent?" Kaido complained but before he could demand more Hades continue his offer.

"30%, but I will send you all the sake you can drink, different types from all over the world from Blue Sea to Grand Line."

"Deal!" Without a second of hesitation, Kaido closed the deal a moment he heard an extra offer from Hades. With that Hades closes the final business with all the Yonkos of the One Piece world.

Since Kaido isn't the Shogun of the Wano Country, so he can't technically make the deal for the country. But as a backer for Orochi who is the Shogun, Kaido can do whatever he wants as long as he allows Orochi to rule the land whatever he wants to do.

The plan is to install the black market and learn their secrets of forging and technology, but also to provide a cushion for the people of Wano country with food, etc. Of course, this is until a certain group of pirates visit the country in the future and liberate the Wano Country.

But there is another reason why Hades made a deal to give devil fruits to Kaido. It is to change the formula for the SMILE and make better artificial devil fruits, the same percentage of success (1/10) but without the defect of being unable to express negative emotions to the person who consumed it.

Ultimately, Hades isn't planning to help Kaido become a much stronger fighting force, he won't make any other changes on SMILE such as a higher chance of obtaining the power or full Zoan artificial devil fruit. As long Hades can get the knowledge of the Wano Country's culture, smithing and metallurgy, he will be the only one who can monopoly the goods to the outside world with a hefty price tag. People search for new things to experience, so providing Wano's exotic goods to the outside world will be much more profitable than liberating the country itself.

-------------

10 Days After the Explosion,

After closing the deal with Kaido, Hades left the island that he made right after he sank it to the bottom of the ocean. After the battle, there wasn't much left in the end but this way the Navy will come and start snooping around.

Beast Pirates and Kaido left the island earlier that day, back to Wano Country since their causality was heavy after the battle. Queen barely managed to defeat King Kong in the end, but he ended up with more injuries than Hades did with Rebellion.

Commander Ain and Marines did escape with pictures of Hades and intel about his possible devil fruit power. As of now, Navy Headquarter believes Hades possesses some sort of logia devil fruit which it explains about Ain's report about island rise from the bottom of the ocean. Because Hades was wearing Revan's mask, no one knows the real face of Hades or his true name. Only a few people have small details and bits of information to connect the dots, so Hades's identity is a mystery.

By the end of the 10th day, the island disappeared from existence and Kaido returned to Wano Country with a direct connection to the black market. The deal he made with Hades will change certain events in the future but that is something no one will ever know.

Three Days Later,

'Now that I finish making connections with all four Yonko, it is time to fix the internal problem within my organization.' David thought to himself as he flew towards two people who would hate to meet him right now. Using the Ninja Khan that he tagged Du Feld with, David appeared from Du Feld's shadow while Du Feld was having lunch. Du Feld didn't leave the New World yet as he and Gild Tesoro were almost done with completing their plan. For this reason, Du Feld stayed at Gild Tesoro's private island where Gran Tesoro is being built.

Du Feld panicked when suddenly a Hades appeared out of the shadow and when he realized what just happened it was too late as Ninja Khan appeared from his back with kunai in his throat.

"Du Feld, my friend. You've been very busy, how can you betray me like that? It hasn't been half a year yet, at least give me one year to prove my worth to you as your boss." Hades said as he grabbed an empty glass of wine cup and poured one for himself.

"Hades, look, I can explain. I came here to secure large funds for your expansion plan. I…" Before Du Feld could continue, Hades used the monkey talisman to turn Du Feld into a small rat.

"You talk a lot for a person who lacks loyalty." Hades put the rat into a small bowl and covered it with metal tableware cover to prevent it from escaping. With traitor secured, Hades uses Observation Haki to find Gil Tesoro, who is enjoying his lunch at a personal restaurant. Using teleportation, Hades appears a few feets away from Gil Tesoro whom he caught off guard when a person appeared out of nowhere.

"Who? What? How did you do that?" Gild Tesoro tried to make sense out of it as he asked questions but before he could get up two Crab Khans appeared from the shadow and put their claws at his throat.

"Good afternoon, my name is Hades and I'm sure you know what that means. I'm here to fix an internal issue within my organization and you are part of that problem, unfortunately. I'm afraid you have faced the consequence as I will determine your fate. By the way here is your partner in crime." Hades put down a bowl as a small rat came out from it, then Hades turned the rat back into its original human form. The moment Du Feld turned to humans, second Crab Khan grabbed him and forced him to take a seat opposite to where Gild Tesoro is seated and put a claw on his neck.

"Now all we need is other members of Emperors of Underworld and we will be good to start." Hades expresses excitement in his voice as he pulls out red Den Den Mushi to make an announcement.

"This is Hades. You have 5 minutes to prepare yourself before I summon you all. Make sure you put some clothes on and be ready for an emergency meeting. We have a traitor who needs to be punished."
