One Piece: Gambling to The Top

Chapter 209



Chapter 209

While the dolls were turning back into humans, the crowd had forgotten about Josh's existence as a bunch of new memories were invading them. Some people realised that they are married. 

Some realised that they weren't orphans and all. The people who had been dolls started yelling, saying that they had been enslaved by Doflamingo and that little girl was the one that had turned them into toys. 

Every citizen had a perfect image of Doflamingo, and how fair a ruler he is. But now, it shattered. 

The people remembered Josh, whom they were cursing in their hearts for beating a little girl. 

Now, they felt grateful to him. They felt that they should thank him and that a Pirate Emperor is a good man. 

As they were about to turn and thank him, Josh was nowhere to be seen. Instead of Sugar, there was an adult green-haired woman. As for Josh, he was nowhere there. 

The audience started yelling. Angry, each one took a weapon and they were screaming. 

"We must take Doflamingo down." 

"Let's attack him!" 

"Hurray!" 

-x-X-x- 

Josh was playing with the little Devil Fruit in his hand. 

Somehow, having this Devil Fruit that can erase anyone from the memories of anyone they know, made him think of a devilish plan. 

All he needs is a desperate Celestial Dragon. And all of the Celestial Dragons will be only history on the paper. 

"Hehehe…" Josh was laughing, and both Hancock and Kalifa gave him a side-eye. It's very rare to see Josh giving such a twisted laugh. But there is a twisted plan for sure.  

Staring at the palace in front of him, Josh was met with the rest of his girls. Josh nodded with his head and gave them the signal. 

"Now, there should be a right-handed man that belongs to Doflamingo. Brings him to me." Josh said. Doflamingo had been known as the Joker of the underworld, someone who controls the illegal trade. For that fact, he must have a lot of wealth. And Josh is here to take it all. 

As the girls nodded, Kalifa turned into a lightning bolt that flew upward the hill, floating above the palace. "Awaken." When she declared that, the atmosphere changed. The sky was full of black clouds all of the sudden. Lightning bolts of different colours flashed. And each had the voltage of natural lightning. 

Kalifa flashed next to Josh and she raised her hand. "Should I take them one by one?" 

"Let's wait first. Mikita." When Josh said that, Mikita nodded with her head. Turning so light to increase her speed, she appeared next to the palace, her hand on the wall. 

Ever since her fruit was awakened, she had been able to manipulate the weight of the objects. "1 kilo." 

The palace was light now. But that doesn't mean that the people inside are light. 

"Okay. Robin, flip that palace." Josh said. 

"100.000 flowers." 

Robin nodded and crossed her arms. Many copies of her started appearing and combining, finally forming a very large giant of 60 meters. 

Since she had only gotten buffs on strength, reaching 2000 tons, this giant copy holds 100.000 times increased physical strength. 

There had been one reason that Josh didn't give her more items because they were uneasy, and physically she can be stronger with her Devil Fruit. 

If Josh thought of it, Robin's fruit can be suitable for him. But he found it a bad decision to take it. After all, she had been training with it for a long time; 

The copy hugged the palace, and from the root, it lifted it so easily, before flipping it. 

 A violent earthquake shook Dressrosa, and Josh was crossing his arms. 

Since he was the one who trained them, he felt proud of his crew. He is a good trainer. 

'I wanna be the very best like no one ever was. To catch is my real test, to train them is my cause.' 

Josh clenched his fists. 

So, this is the joy of catching girls like Pokemon and training them. 

Although he had to work his way with them, so be it. 

"Gotta catch them all." 

"What?" Hancock turned to Josh and raised an eyebrow. 

"I'm talking about the crew of Doflamingo. They are heading to us. Kalifa, we must catch them all." Josh said. 'Just dodged a bullet.' 

Kalifa, clueless, nodded, and she moved her hand. 

From the flipped palace, the survived army of Doflamingo, along with his commanders, were getting out. 

*Rumble* *Rumble*

Streaks of lightning descended from the sky, and it stroke them all. 

Robin's giant copy suddenly dissolved, making an army of 100 thousand of her. Seeing that army, Josh thought that he surpassed Genghis Khan, but the enemy thought otherwise. The army of Robin, each trained very well and know Haki, entered the palace and attacked the residence. Her physical strength and six powers plus Haki make just one of her copies dangerous to all of Doflamingo's crew, let alone such a large army. And the best thing, since they all share the same consciousness, they have no blind spot. 

The commanders of Doflamingo were defeated easily. And the army had been burned by lightning. 

'Feels good not to have to move a muscle.' Josh bent over, took a rock, and turned his hand into a demon's hand. Using his claws, he crafted a chair, and using More More ability, the chair grew big enough, and he sat down. 

"Bastard! You will pay for what you are doing." Said a voice. 

Josh lifted his head in the direction of the voice, seeing a 5 meters long man, holding a giant coin and floating above him. The man was blond, the cheap copy of Melissa. 

"Tons Tons- 10.000 Tons." He declared.

Josh smiled. "Nice Devil Fruit." 

The man started falling with an increased speed. His mass was a concentrated 10 thousand metric tons. When he was above Josh, ready to crush him, the latter stood up and extended his arm upward. The ground under Josh's leg cracked, and he smiled.

Now, lifting such a man is easy. But Josh is doing it with his arm alone. Josh lowered his arm and extended it up. He repeated the action. 

"What are you doing?" the blond man couldn't understand what happened as he couldn't believe that someone was lifting his colossal weight.

"If you want to stay alive longer, let me continue my workout." 

"Leave me." 

"Shut the fuck up." Josh seemed to get pissed off. 

He held the man with two hands, and he slammed him to the ground. Dressrosa shook violently, again, cracks spreading from every place.  

-x-X-x- 

A few minutes later, Josh was staring at the destroyed palace of Dressrosa. The army of Doflamingo had already been taken down, and the royal soldiers had surrendered. The staff of the palace were standing out, shaking in fear, not daring to make eye contact with the strong pirate.

The people of Dressrosa, who had been thinking of rebelling, had witnessed what happened. They hadn't the guts to approach Josh while he was doing his work. 

"Here he is, Diamante." Some guard approached with a tall man, who had burns mark all over him. 

"Marianne. Hypnosis him." Josh ordered. The brown-haired girl stood up next to Josh, and her hand turned into plasma, drawing few shapes. 

Diamante kept lowering his head. 

Josh wanted to ask him where's Doflamingo's wealth, and he is going to get it. 

"The Gambler. We've expected that you'll be here." 

Hearing someone calling him, Josh turned his head slowly. A man… not a man. More likely, a lion humanoid was walking toward him while shaking his tail. There were few tall men behind him. 

Josh could recognise the lion man. Isn't he someone who works for Big Mom? 

And he said 'We expected.' 

Josh lowered his head, took a sneak peek at the future. 

"Momma has got an eye at you," Josh said as he tilted his head. 

The lion-man talked at the same time. "Momma has got an eye at you." The lion man's eyes shook for brief, shocked. 

"Your next line, What?" Josh pointed at him. 

"What?" the lion man said. 

Josh waved his hand at Diamante, making a signal for the man holding him to hold still. 

"What do you want?" Josh's tone changed to a cold one as he talked to the lion.
