Vampirism

Vampirism. 

To turn others into vampires. 

Since Shinra had eaten the Batto Batto no Mi, Model: Vampire, he had been thinking of developing this ability, so that he could find someone whom he could trust to manage this world. 

However, people were fickle and they could betray him due to their own interests, and he was too lazy to play politics, playing a balancing act, so they would follow him. 

So, how do we solve that problem? 

Simple. 

It was by making them unable to betray him, and they followed him like he was their god. 

As they had become vampires, it was impossible for them to betray him, especially when Shinra was the progenitor, someone above, the one who gave them their power, and naturally, as he was the one who gave them their power, he could also take it away. 

Then, as expected, as they saw Lao G become stronger and regain his youth, even if he became a vampire, everyone was excited and wished Shinra to transform them into a vampire! 

Unlike Luffy and his group, who were young, after all, most of the members of the Doflamingo Pirates were in their 40s and more! 

Some might be young, such as Baby 5 and Buffalo, who were still in their mid-20s, but most of them were old, and while they could still fight, it was impossible to stop the aging process.

In the future, they would grow older and weaker! 

So, if they could become younger and gain a new power, how could they not be excited? 

Except for Lao G, without doubt, Giolla was the most excited as she was in her 60s! 

'If I regain my youth, then can I seduce the Lord?!' 

Giolla was full of excitement as she knew well that she was quite hot when she was young~! 

"..." Shinra. 

Still, before the remnants of the Doflamingo Pirates, Shinra needed to take care of someone else. 

"So, what do you think, Cavendish? Do you want to work under me?" 

"You are dreaming! I won't work under you! The most handsome man in the world can only be me! You have to die!" 

Cavendish's expression was so vicious as he stared at Shinra with hatred! 

"..." Shinra. 

"YOU UGLY BASTARD! ARE YOU CRAZY?!" 

"LORD, LET ME KILL HIM!" 

"BLASPHEMY! I WILL KILL YOU!" 

Even if Shinra didn't do anything, all his followers, including the remnants of the Doflamingo Pirates, looked angrily at Cavendish as they filled with the killing intent! 

Still, Shinra also understood their feelings since this was a chance for them to show their loyalty to him, so of course, any of them wished to be the first one to take the life of Cavendish! 

"Haha, say what you want! Now, I have become stronger! Killing all of you is as easy as killing ants!" 

Similar to Lao G, Cavendish also received the power of a vampire from Shinra, and of course, with his strong body, he became even stronger! 

"....you really love to cause trouble." Robin sighed helplessly as she looked at Cavendish like an idiot. 

Shinra only laughed at Robin's words, ignoring Cavendish completely. 

"Is it okay, Shinra?" Stussy asked with doubt. 

"Well, just watch." 

"It's your fault for giving me this power!" 

Cavendish's eyes turned fiendish as he looked at Shinra greedily! 

"I will kill you and take away this power for myself!" 

The power of the vampire was just too addicting as it gave Cavendish the physical ability of the Zoan-Type Devil Fruit, a powerful recovery, blood manipulation, life-force absorption, flying, and many others!

Regardless, Cavendish thought Shinra was stupid to give him this power! 

"This power suits me well! I will give you a painless death as you see me from heaven, as you have given me this power—" 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!

All of a sudden, Cavendish's body burst and exploded. 

"....." 

"...he dies?" 

Everyone was at a loss, especially when they were ready to move, and showing their loyalty to Shinra, but somehow... Cavendish died? 

'And, this dead...'

When they saw Cavendish's grotesque and ugly corpse, all of them felt a chill of fear inside their hearts. 

"Well, as I have given him this power, of course, I can take it back and control their death and life." 

If there was a reason why Cavendish was so arrogant, it was because he didn't know that Shinra had defeated Kaidou. 

Yet, even if Cavendish knew, Shinra could imagine that Cavendish didn't care and just went on. 

'Well, I just need a sword.' 

Shinra's previous sword was broken, so he thought to get a new sword, and Cavendish's sword was quite good for him. 

"So, after you see all of that, do you still want to become a vampire?" 

The power of a vampire was amazing, especially when, as long as they consumed the blood or lifeforce, they could become more or less immortal, but the price was that they had to be loyal to him, or else, like Cavendish, they would die. 

Still, their answer was—

"Yes, Lord! Please make us your pawns!" 

Their answers didn't change as they knelt down directly in front of Shinra! 

Yes, their life or death was in the hands of Shinra, but when they thought of the benefits that came from becoming a vampire, as more or less, they became immortals, and gained similar abilities to Shinra's, then why should they hesitate? 

More importantly, they had sworn to become Shinra's most devoted followers, and even gave their lives if Shinra needed them to, so they didn't feel afraid of having their lives controlled by Shinra! 

Instead, they felt more reassured since that way, they knew that Shinra would trust them! 

"Please turn us into your family, Shinra-sama!" 

"...." 

Family. 

They weren't wrong since, as they had become vampires, they would become his family. 

This made him feel quite funny since, as Shinra had lost his family and all of his kin that day after Itachi, Obito, and Danzo massacred all of them, he had never expected that he would make a new family. 

Well, he had made many women pregnant, and he would also become a father soon, but everyone should understand what he meant, right? 

Still, fortunately, this family didn't have a strange tendency to go extreme by killing everyone, from children, old people, females, or males, Shinra thought. 

"I am in a good mood today. Come here. I will turn you one by one into a vampire."

"Yes, Lord!" 

As everyone was full of excitement, Stussy felt her breathing grow harder as she had never expected that the Batto Batto no Mi, Mode: Vampire was such a frightening Devil Fruit!
