One Piece: I'm Destined to Be the Son-in-Law King!-Chapter 200: Macho Pink is the Trend
Chapter 200 - Macho Pink is the Trend
Marine Headquarters, in the Marshal's office, Sengoku rubbed his temples, fighting off a pounding headache.
"That damn kid is at it again!" he growled.
He'd been keeping tabs on the white-haired girl who stuck close to Roya. Garp's reports said this girl, Yamato, had beaten several captains of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Her amazing strength had caught his attention, but he never imagined that Yamato was actually the daughter of Kaido of the Hundred Beasts!
Kaido had a daughter?
Wano Country had always been closed off, so the Marines really didn't know what was going on inside.
But for them to only now be finding out about something as important as Kaido having a daughter? It was just plain incompetence!
And to make things worse, Roya had kidnapped Kaido's daughter. Now she was one of his underlings, causing trouble all over the New World.
"Damn it!" Sengoku muttered. That brat had been hiding something important from them.
The question is, how do we deal with this?
Kaido's daughter... just her bloodline is a crime!
"Get Akainu in here!" he barked.
"Yes, sir!" a Marine replied.

Meanwhile, in the New World, a small boat sped away from a warship, heading towards the shore of Punk Hazard.
Looking at the dead island and the purple poisonous gas hanging in the air, Caesar covered his mouth, his face twisting into a gleeful grin.
"Shurorororo, this power is truly terrifying! Just as I expected from my weapon of mass destruction!"
"Enough talk, get to work!" Roya snapped, his voice cold. "Remember, your only job is to make Smlie. I don't care what weird experiments you do in your free time, but if you slack off, I'll kill you!"
"No way, Black Hair Boss!" Caesar said, sheepishly grinning. He was Black Hair's underling now. Without Black Hair's protection, he'd be finished for good.
Shurorororo, Slime, I really don't want to do this!
Caesar sadly raised his hands, making a circle in front of his face, and released a huge cloud of gas.
"Neutralizing Gas!"
The two gases mixed, causing a violent chemical reaction that turned into a non-toxic gas, which then flowed towards Caesar's body.
In less than half an hour, the purple poisonous gas on the whole island was gone.
The group moved forward, soon reaching a research lab, but it had been destroyed in an explosion, leaving only ruins.
There were three research labs on the island. Caesar said one should be perfectly intact, untouched by the explosion.
Caesar led the way, cautiously saying, "Black Hair Boss, Big Mom in Totto Land blackmailed me into creating a giant drug. But researching the giant drug means I need test subjects. Young children are the best for this. Should we go ahead with this experiment?"
Big Mom's threat was a sword hanging over his head. To do the research, he needed Roya's help to kidnap children and cover up the whole thing.
Roya's eyes turned cold. Human experimentation was something he couldn't accept. He could understand if the test subjects were horrible criminals, but not children.
"Forget it. I'll take care of the Big Mom Pirates," Roya said.
"Thank you, Black Hair Boss!" Caesar beamed, feeling much lighter. That was exactly what he wanted to hear.
The last research lab was in the northwest of the island, sealed shut. When the staff left the island, they locked it up.
"Clang!"
With a flash of his sword, the door lock shattered.
"Caesar, Monet," Roya said, looking at the two. "From now on, you'll be responsible for making Smlie Fruit here. I sensed some people in this lab, probably abandoned prisoners. You can make them work for you."
"Yes, Black Hair Lord" the two replied respectfully.
"I have some personal things to take care of. You can do whatever you want. If you need anything, just give me a list," Roya nodded slightly, signaling Lu Yun to follow him. The replica of the Azure Dragon Fruit was inside this lab.
Ten minutes later, Lu Yun led Roya to the room where the Devil Fruit was stored. The replica they had been waiting for was sitting quietly inside a glass case.
It must be it!
Roya stared at the artificial Azure Dragon Devil Fruit, fighting the urge to eat it, and drew Rain Cutter.
He swung the sword!
"Crack!"
The glass case broke in two.
Roya picked up the artificial Azure Dragon Fruit and handed it, along with Rain Cutter, to Lu Yun.
"Lu Yun, have you learned how to do it?"
"Don't worry, Senior," Lu Yun said confidently, reaching for the sword and the Devil Fruit. On the way here, she had learned how to feed a Devil Fruit to an inanimate object from Caesar.
"Just a moment, Senior," she said.
"Mm!"
Roya watched the busy girl with glasses.
He had thought about it for a long time and decided to let the sword eat the artificial Azure Dragon Fruit, while he would find a way to get other abilities.
So, by letting the sword eat the Azure Dragon Fruit and finding a way to get other Devil Fruits, he'd be like a dual Devil Fruit user, and he'd also have a powerful flying mount, making him much more mobile!
Another important thing was...
Devil Fruit Awakening!
Zoan Devil Fruits held the will of the wild beast. This was the main reason why inanimate objects could eat Zoan Type Devil Fruits.
Like CP9 Officer Spandam's Elephant Sword, which had eaten the Elephant-Elephant Fruit, the Elephant Sword had a clear consciousness and could even eat.
According to Vegapunk, the key to Zoan Type Ability Awakening was whether the user could control the will of the Devil Fruit.
If they failed, the fruit's will would take over. The Jailer Beasts were examples of failed awakenings.
If they succeeded, the user would take control, turning the fruit's will into wild power, making the transformation even stronger. Sharper claws and fangs, and a humanoid body that looked more like a beast, were all signs of a full release of wild power.
Will could also be called a soul!
Copying a physical body wasn't hard, but copying a complete soul was nearly impossible.
The artificial Azure Dragon Fruit probably didn't have the complete will of a natural Devil Fruit, just like the Smlie Fruit, it had flaws.
So, it might not be able to awaken.
No awakening meant there was a limit.
"Senior, it's done. But it would be best if you picked it up yourself," Lu Yun said.
"Alright!"
Roya walked to the experimental table, looked at the shining blade in the solution, and reached for it.
"Awooo~~~"
The blade shook violently, showing signs of losing control.
Roya's eyes turned cold, and Conqueror's Haki spread towards the blade. The trembling blade instantly quieted down. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"Wake up!"
An eye opened on the blade, then quickly stretched and changed, turning into a pink dragon tens of meters long in the blink of an eye, circling the lab.
Compared to Kaido's transformed size, the pink dragon was much smaller. It was still a young dragon on its first transformation.
The pink dragon glared at Roya warily, unable to control itself, and opened its mouth, biting at Roya.
"Awooo!"
"Quite playful, but I'm the master," Roya said.
His eyes were cold, and he stomped on the ground, instantly landing on top of the pink dragon's head, his fist slowly clenching!
"Demon King Gun!"
The powerful iron fist, wrapped in Conqueror's Haki, slammed into the pink dragon's head with all its might, instantly smashing the pink dragon to the ground.
"Boom!!!"
The room shook violently!
When the dust cleared, the pink dragon curled up in a ball, whimpering with grievance, its eyes full of fear and flattery as it looked at Roya.
"Woof... Woof..."
"Pretty tough!" Roya said, a smirk playing on his lips. Just as he expected from the Azure Dragon Fruit, his full-force punch hadn't even knocked this guy out.
Roya stared into the pink dragon's eyes.
"From now on, you listen to me, understand?"
"Woof woof!" the pink dragon nodded frantically. Its subconscious knew that Roya was its master, and after being beaten hard, it immediately recognized the relationship.
"Awoo!"
The little pink dragon howled, its body rapidly shrinking and changing, returning to the shape of a sword, its appearance greatly changed from before.
The whole sword was pink, the sword guard looked like an open dragon head, with the blade in its mouth, the sword hilt had a layer of fine pink dragon scales, and the end of the sword tail had a tassel-like fringe.
"Is this macho pink?" Roya swung Rain Cutter and put it back into its scabbard.
Macho pink isn't so bad, either!
