Chapter 94
When the Tenryubito were killed, the entire island was alarmed, and most of the pirates began to pack up their belongings and flee the island. Each of them knew that staying on the island was tantamount to death. Many did not even know the strength of the admiral, but each of them was sure of one thing - this man is monstrously strong.
Apart from ordinary pirates, almost all the newcomers from the Worst Generation gathered, of course, with the exception of those who were now in the thick of things, at the "Slave Auction" next to the Sea Devil.
Many of those fleeing cursed the Devil and wished him a speedy death, while others, by no means, hoped for his victory and a way to earn extra money from it. Many gloated and scoffed at his stupidity, and someone recognized and respected his fearlessness, yet similar qualities were inherent in almost all great pirates.
One thing was clear - something unimaginable was about to happen ...
- Hey, captain, it's time for us to go! - Shouted a short mustachioed pirate, referring to a beautiful slender girl with pink hair.
She looked at him with displeasure and snorted:
- Shut up Rochi, this nutcase made a real commotion, I thought he was the sickest in their team, but it looks like everyone is like that. I swear if I meet them again ... I am this blue-eyed ... Grrr ...

Grove Number One.
Backstage at the auction, a trembling man with star-shaped glasses was kneeling and talking in Den Den Mushi.
- But ... But ... Sir, how can you leave us?
On the other side of the tube, a mocking voice was heard:
- Fu-fu-fu, to hell with human trafficking, this is the last century, you can take the auction for yourself.
The owner of the auction broke out in sweat and said, almost crying:
- Mr. Doflamingo! Are you leaving us ?!
- Fu-fu-fu, the "New Era" will begin soon, you can whine as much as you want, but I'm not your assistant now. We are being called to the headquarters, the war will begin soon! Fu Fu Fu....

Grove Number One.
The slave auction was quickly surrounded by marines. Cannons and Mortars were brought, as well as several dozen well-trained soldiers.
Among the crowd of people stood a man in a cloak with a typical sentinel inscription - "Justice" and listened to the report that had just arrived.
"Mr. Filmer, I have a report. Admiral Kizaru will come here in person and destroy the intruders.
The Rear Admiral exhaled with relief:
- Hoo-oo-oo, if that's the case, then we have nothing to worry about ... Let's wait, but for now, let's chat with the violators ...

At the same time inside the Auction.
I told the guys our basic plan of action and told them what to do in case of emergency.
Everyone understood the plan of action and agreed, and then we headed towards Luffy and Rayleigh.
When I approached the Straw Hats, I chuckled and said:
"So we met again, how are you Luffy?"
Luffy was surprised and asked:
- ABOUT? It's you, what are you doing here?
I waved my hand:
- Just walking, you better tell me why you are here?
- And, well, we came to save our friend, or rather a friend, have you seen her?
I scratched my chin and asked:
- You mean a mermaid?
- ABOUT! Yes, yes, about her! - exclaimed the guy.
I nodded in the direction of the rather spoiled stage and said:
- I think she's there, for ...
At that moment, a loud voice rang out from all sides:
- Criminals! Come out immediately! Soon the admiral will arrive and you will be destroyed, if you want to live, then go out and surrender!
At that moment, Kid laughed:
- Ha-ha, it looks like we were ranked among your gang.
Luo sighed.
- Eh, I don't even know if this is good or bad ...
Kid looked at me and said:
"Well, since we're kind of tied up now, we'll take over the crowd."
I chuckled and said:
- Not worth it, in a couple of seconds they will be gone.
Kid changed in his face and was about to ask what I mean, as the air around him vibrated, and there was silence ... Then there was a strange rumble and suddenly ...
* Bz-z-z-z * * BOOM! * * BOOM! * * BOOM! *
Thunder and lightning began to descend from heaven on the entire formation of the sentinels, even the earth began to tremble. Everyone around was in shock and could not understand what was happening, only me, Rayleigh and the team were smiling calmly. The sentinels, on the other hand, screamed and ran like headless flies when lightning rained down on them, and destroyed mortars and flies.
After a while, the lightning stopped, and the sky began to brighten again, but the silence did not disappear. Then a flash blinked in the doorway and two people appeared, of course, Sanji and Nami. In the eyes of the blonde, sparks of lightning played, and the girl smiled cheerfully.
- Damn, what kind of demons are you ... - Kid muttered with a sigh.
Law just chuckled and said nothing. On the contrary, Luffy exclaimed:
- Cool! You put them all alone, damn, how strong are you ?!
Sanji exhaled the smoke of his cigarette and said proudly.
- I am the second after the captain, the strongest in the team.
- What did the horseradish eyebrow say ?! Who is there second ?! - Zoro, of course, did not tolerate this and rushed at our cook.
Nami sighed and shook her head, then came up to me and asked:
- What do we do? I heard the admiral is coming soon, are we leaving again?
I shook my head.
- Not this time, today we stay until the last.
Kid grunted and waved his hand.
- Well, that's your business, but I'm leaving, now ...
Law nodded and said:
- We are also leaving, until we meet in the New World.
When the two left, I turned to Luffy and said:
- And you?
Luffy didn't understand and asked:
- What am I?
- You're not going to leave?
Luffy chuckled.
- Why would you? The admiral will come and I will clean his face, that's all.
Rayleigh laughed.
- Haha, this is a spirit, no wonder he gave you this hat. Don't be offended, guy, but the admiral is too tough for you, now you better leave before your team gets hurt.
- I'm not going to run away! - Refused the Straw Hats.
Then I got into the conversation and said:
`` Luffy, you may not be, but think about your team ... '' I looked at his people and said:
- Half a year ago, the admiral could easily have killed me and all my people, if not for Rayleigh-san ... In general, if you do not want to lose your nakamas, then you better leave and don't forget about the mermaid.
Luffy thought for a long time ... His face was frowning and displeased, but then he clenched his fists and said:
- Grr, I ... We're leaving, but we'll meet again, I promise!
Then the guy started to run towards the stage, and his team followed him. I sighed and turned to Rayleigh, then said:
`` Good luck Rayleigh-san, I think we'll see each other soon, but you seem to have more work ...
Rayleigh looked at Luffy's trail and sighed.
- Yeah, it looks like that ... - Then he held out his hand to me and said:
- Well, see you Sea Devil.
I smiled and held out my hand in response, then squeezed tightly and said:
- See you, the Dark King.
On that note, we parted ways, Rayleigh followed Luffy, and the guys and I headed out. He's already here somewhere, I feel ...
