Arrive At Drum Island, Chopper.

Because she lacked the experiences of the original story, and since Kaos was gentle with others, Hancock quickly dispelled her fears under Kaos's words, and a smile appeared on her face again.

She seemed tempted by Kaos's proposal.

In the original story, Hancock loathed the Celestial Dragons.

But now, while she might still hate them—especially since they were the reason for her capture in Mariejois—Kaos was an exception in her eyes.

After some thought, Hancock agreed. "I'll do my best to convince Granny Nyon."

Kaos smiled and patted her hair.

"Good girl."

Hancock blushed and lowered her head.

With a gesture, Zero appeared before him, kneeling on one knee respectfully.

"When we reach Amazon Lily Island, make arrangements for someone to escort Hancock and her sisters."

Zero bowed his head respectfully.

"As you command, Your Highness."

After handling the matter, Kaos shifted his attention to the pool.

The monotony of these days of travel made him think about some activities to pass the time, including having his beautiful maids wear bikinis and spend time at the pool.

"Give me a massage."

Hancock nodded and began massaging his shoulders.

Kaos smiled in satisfaction, put on his sunglasses, and enjoyed the view in front of him.

In the zombie world, after Stussy completed the task assigned to her by His Highness, she didn't immediately return to the pirate world. Instead, she decided to check on someone she had nearly forgotten.

She pulled out a Den Den Mushi and made a call.

After a few seconds, a deep voice answered.

"Miss Stussy."

Wasting no time, Stussy asked, "Gylgo, how are Saya's parents doing?"

In the pirate world, deep within Impel Down, amidst a frozen field, three men dressed in black stood.

The man standing in the center, who appeared to be the leader, was in his forties, short, with dark circles around his eyes, and smoking a cigarette. He glanced at the Den Den Mushi and responded.

"Miss Stussy, things are proceeding well. Life for both of them here is harsh and serves as proper punishment."

"Good. What stage are you at now?"

The CP member raised his head and looked at a woman in prison attire. Her body was covered in frostbite marks, and she was leaning against an icy wall.

"The first stage is complete. The relationship between the woman and the man has been destroyed, thanks to Dedro's ability to possess bodies. I'm about to begin the second stage."

He exhaled a puff of smoke, and there was a brief silence before Stussy spoke.

"I don't need to remind you that I want that woman completely loyal to His Highness."

"Don't worry, Miss Stussy. I'll ensure she's fully loyal to His Highness."

"Good. Keep me updated."

With that, the call ended.

The man stored the Den Den Mushi away and sighed.

"I have only half a month left. I'm forced to use some rather extreme methods."

As he spoke, he refocused on Yuriko Takagi and activated his Devil Fruit ability, which allowed him to manipulate dreams.

Inside Yuriko's mind in the world he built. In order for her husband to save his life in front of the prisoners, he joined them and asked his wife to let them satiate their desires with her body.

After her refusal and escape, it wasn't long before her husband led the prisoners and captured her.

Just as she was about to be raped by a group of prisoners, and in the depths of despair, a bright light erupted from a feather and blasting the prisoners away.

A translucent, glowing figure emerged from the feather, resembling Kaos, and saved Yuriko.

The CP member smiled as he continued to smoke and weave dreams carefully. For his victims, his dreams were real experiences, especially for weak people.

"I hope to earn His Highness's recognition when I finish this mission."

With this thought, he redoubled his efforts.

.

.

About two days later.

At the edge of an island.

The Hancock sisters departed under the escort of several CP members.

Though he was interested in Amazon Lily, he wasn't in a rush and had no intention of accompanying them for now.

Subsequently.

Kaos continued his journey.

Another day passed.

He arrived the first destination.

Drum Island.

This was a winter island.

Heavy snow and wind made it extremely cold.

Looking at the island ahead, Kaos stepped forward, and instantly appeared on the shore.

Immediately afterward, he tilted his head slightly.

Observation Haki erupted, sweeping across the entire island.

Instantly, the island's information was under Kaos's control.

Meanwhile.

On the island.

In a castle.

Dr. Kureha, who was drinking and reading, noticed something and widened her eyes. "This level of Observation Haki..."

"An unusual guest has arrived on the island."

"Hopefully, they won't cause trouble."

Muttering to herself, she shook her head.

She was just an old woman.

She didn't want to get involved, so she ignored the source of the Observation Haki and continued drinking and reading.

"Huh?"

Kaos, on the other hand.

After covering Drum Island with Observation Haki, let out a surprised sound.

Then, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he murmured, "Didn't think the Hito Hito no Mi had already been eaten."

Through his Observation Haki, he saw it.

A reindeer walking like a human.

Without a doubt, it was Chopper.

The Hito Hito no Mi had already been consumed.

But that made sense.

"Chopper likely ate the Devil Fruit long ago, even before meeting Dr. Hiriluk eight years before the original story began."

At this moment, Chopper looked pitiful, as he hadn't met Hiriluk yet.

He lay injured in the snow, covered in blood.

There were also bullet wounds.

After all, a walking reindeer appeared as a monster to many.

When encountered, most people's first thought was to kill it.

This was Drum Island.

Elsewhere, it might have been worse.

People would not only kill but might capture him as a slave.

"Forget it. Since he's already eaten it, I'll take him with me."

Kaos thought for a moment and waved at Zero.

Swish.

Zero appeared beside Kaos, kneeling on one knee. "Your Highness."

"On this island, there's a reindeer who ate the Hito Hito no Mi fruit. I need a pet. Go and bring it to me," Kaos ordered.

Hearing this, Zero nodded respectfully, activating his Soru ability and disappearing like a gust of wind.
