One Piece: Grand Journey

Chapter 222: Deadly Stars

Summary:

The Green Devils face an overwhelming wave of pirate grunts as the Deadly Stars, led by the enigmatic Mika, descend onto Row Deese, with one of their members ready to engage Shocker himself...

Chapter Text

In the present, pirate fodder lands on Row Deese and begins to engage with the Green Devils. The crew find that the fodder themselves are fairly weak, but it is their sheer quantity that makes them tiring. Kicking a few away, Yato notes how they just keep coming. Adam, slashing at some more, tells him to just keep fighting back. As Angel attacks with Rankyaku , she hopes that the others are okay. At the Meeting Spot, Cruella reconvenes with Kawaki and Glassia, who inform the strategist that they were attacked by some pirates falling from the sky. As pirates surround the Meeting Spot, the trio fight them, pushing them away. Glassia wonders where the others are, and Cruella states they must also be held up fighting, as she notes the enemy must be jamming their snail signal and can’t contact anyone. Kawaki volunteers to go try and regroup with the others, telling the two women to stay at the Meeting Spot in case any of their companions come back. 

Back on the cliff, Shocker wastes no time fighting. He stretches his arm back and coils it, aiming a Gomu Gomu no Hawk Rifle at Masuma, who merely merges into a large tree behind him and avoids damage. At around the same time, Dorian vanishes, using his Soru skill to teleport away. Coming out of the tree, Masuma uses Chain Burst , blasting Shocker off the cliff and down to the field below them. Fitting Burpy into his sling, Taco uses Slug Shot: Pyroforge , thinking that Burpy’s fire should burn the trees. Masuma catches both him and Zane in his vertical explosion attack, Tower Burst , leaving the duo badly injured. However, instead of finishing them off, he simply turns, stating a boy and a cat pose no threat to him, and decides to leave in search of stronger opponents.  

Meanwhile, the rest of the Deadly Stars arrive on the battlefield, landing in different areas. A large, hairy-chested man wearing nothing but a kilt, green headband, and equally green cape belly flops into the ground, shaking the surrounding trees. He looks up, confused for a moment as he wonders what he is supposed to be doing, before remembering that he is meant to be hunting. A short, pink-haired girl wearing an indigo bodysuit, a yellow sash tied around her waist, and a hot-pink cloak lands in the forest. Clicking an electronic ear clip on her left ear, she states the extermination of the list will begin shortly. Elsewhere, a man with a silver pompadour hairstyle walks down a flowery field. He wears a white tee, jeans, and a black leather coat with a fur hood. Pushing his glasses up on his face, he says out loud that the hunt of the devils will end in a flash. A goat mink with white fur and curved horns looks down from a tree he is perched on. He wears a blue butler’s blazer over a grey cardigan, white dress shirt and blue tie, complete with suit pants without shoes, revealing his hoofs. A pair of shades shine on his face, and he wonders where his subordinates are, the “a” and “e” sounds in his words being bleated.  

   

In another section, a woman with long, straight, black hair leans against a tree. She wears a fitted, white combat suit with black fingerless gloves. Shiny earrings dangle from her ears, and a bright red scarf is tied around her neck. Two katanas are sheathed at her hip. The woman conjures what appears to be a crystal ball, musing to herself about what the future holds for the battle. She is introduced as “Time Empress” Mika, the leader of the Deadly Stars with a bounty of 330,000,000 beli. She states calmly that the Green Devils’ fight can only end in two outcomes when facing her crew: victory or death.

The final member of the Deadly Stars crash-lands near Shocker, just as the Green Devil captain is getting up from being attacked earlier. As the dust settles, Shocker sees a man with spiky, blond hair, crazy eyes, and a devilish grin. The man wears blue armor, but only shoulder pads and arm-length gauntlets, his chest and torso remaining exposed. He wears blue, skirt-like armor from the waist down. The man introduces himself to Shocker as Crow, the man who will single-handedly decimate Shocker’s entire crew. Shocker asks him if he’s serious, and in response, Crow leaps at Shocker, punching him in the gut as his fist secretes a black substance. To Shocker’s surprise, when the substance comes into contact with his jacket, the cloth begins to deteriorate. Shocker dodges the next attack by hiding behind a tree, but Crow merely punches it, the tree itself rotting away and crumbling. Shocker wonders if it’s a devil fruit power, and Crow confirms, stating he ate the Kuzu Kuzu no Mi (Crumble Crumble Fruit), a paramecia that allows the user to produce a black-flame-like substance that crumbles and decays anything it touches. Eyeying Shocker crazily, he includes human flesh, before stating that killing Shocker will be the highlight of his day.
