One Piece - Justice Of The Celestial Dragons

Chapter 51 - 51 - A rarity; a red dog

Rocks D. Xebec turned around; he knew that they were coming. He had the bait, and now the fish was coming his way. His body turned into a mist of darkness before he vanished, and then he appeared somewhere deep in the island, in a large building. After having entered the building, he went down the stairs to the cellar.

It didn't take Rocks D. Xebec too long before he was in front of the pink punk once again, he was hanging from the roof, bleeding from numerous wounds. But what Rocks D. Xebec hated the most, was the maniacal grin on the youth's face, almost like he was mocking him.

"What are you smiling for, punk?" Rocks D. Xebec asked in a curious tone while holding back his anger.

"Hehehahaha, do you really want to know?" Doflamingo laughed loudly while coughing up blood. He wasn't able to use his Devil Fruit to close his wounds because he was locked up with Sea-Stone material around his hands and feet, but Doflamingo didn't care about it too much, the pain he was feeling was nothing compared to what he had went through when he was younger.

Doflamingo gazed at the man in front of him, more known as Rocks D. Xebec, the pirate that held almost full control of the New World in the generation before Gol D. Roger appeared out of nowhere. But even whilst looking at such a 'legendary' man, Doflamingo just wanted to laugh out like a maniac. "Xebec, you're going to regret trying to lure them here. Whatever you are planning will be found out, and you will be countered for everything you try to do!" Doflamingo knew one thing, that the young brat; Sylver, was not only strong, but also very smart.

"Mhm…" Rocks D. Xebec gazed at Doflamingo with narrowed eyes, he knew there had to be a reason for Doflamingo to be so confident in the ones that would arrive. But Xebec was also confident in himself to overpower anyone he would face against.

-A few hundred kilometres away-

Dragon made himself and everyone else land on a Marine Battleship, it was over a kilometre long and hundreds of meters high. This Marine Battleship is one of the biggest battlesh.i.p.s the Navy has, and only the Admirals and Fleet Admiral can command them.

A large and buff man stood on the deck with a cap on his head while gazing at Dragon and the rest who landed on his ship. He was wearing a white navy suit, a cape on his back and he was smoking a cigar.

"Admiral Akainu, it has been a while." Dragon spoke first to the large buff man who was one of the three admirals; Sakazuki more commonly known as Akainu.

Sakazuki gazed at Dragon with a piercing gaze, and then over to the rest. His eyes narrowed slightly when he saw Thor, Scarlett and Sylver. He straightened his already straight back as he saluted to the three of them. "Welcome aboard my ship; Celestial Dragons. I am Admiral Akainu." Akainu's voice was deep and respectful, but then his eyes went towards Buggy, and his eyes coldly gazed at him, he was just about to move and attack him but was stopped by a calm and soothing voice.

"You don't need to do that, Admiral Akainu." Sylver went forward towards Akainu, as much as Akainu was respecting him, Sylver was also respectful towards the Marines, and specifically the three Admirals and the Fleet Admiral, they were the powerhouses of the Navy. They had been protecting the seas for a long time, and this alone made Sylver respect them.

Sylver had heard about Akainu's ruthlessness towards the pirates and would use any ploy to catch them. He didn't know the reason behind it, and he wouldn't search for it either unless someone told him. But Sylver wouldn't allow Akainu to attack one of his comrades, one of his group.

"Admiral Akainu, let's head over to the reason why we are here. You may have gotten the report, but I will tell you the mission either way. We have two goals in this mission, first is to rescue Doflamingo, and the second is to defeat and kill Rocks D. Xebec." Sylver explained the mission, and he clearly saw that Admiral Akainu relaxed.

"I understand the mission." Akainu nodded before leaving, and Dragon went with him. They would be looking for the island they suspect Rocks D. Xebec staying on.

"Sylver, you sure you want to kill Rocks D. Xebec and not capture him?" Thor asked Sylver in a deep voice. They do usually capture Devil Fruit users in Impel Down, because if they die, their Devil Fruit would appear somewhere else in the world, and that could cause much more trouble.

At this question, both Scarlett and Buggy also gazed at Sylver, wanting to know his answer and why he didn't want to capture Rocks D. Xebec.

Sylver didn't answer at once, his gaze went towards the horizon, he could sense something, he could sense 'it' far away on this island. That sensation alone was something he had never felt before, not even his parents had such a sensation to them, not even the Ancient Weapon; Uranus had such an eerie sensation to it. And with that thought, Sylver remembered that the parasite; Uranus was still inside of his own body but wasn't active.

"I have a feeling, that it would be for the best to kill Rocks in any way we can. We can't let him escape or allow him to be alive, my gut is telling me that it would be a great mistake if that happened." Sylver shook his head once again before looking at his parents, his fiancée and his comrade; Buggy. "Don't be in a rush to fight against Rocks, we need to figure out what kind of powers he has, and if we find an opportunity, we must take it and strike him down."
