Chapter Text
Dellinger HATED that girl.
She was like Doffy, bearing the same family name and the stubbornness of a Celestial Dragon yet unlike him, she was a tourist. A Royal one, who could come and go as she liked and stayed at any palace in whatever kingdom she visited for free. She didn't sit on a slave or wearing the weird bubble clothes. She had top Cipher Pol Agents as her bodyguars when she sailed on her personal luxury yacht, Thousand Sunny Go. At first, Dellinger gave no fuck about her, only overheard the rumors on how she sponsored a pirate-hunter group led by Roronoa Zoro and gathered fearsome crews such as highly wanted criminals and monsters. But then she visited Dressrosa and Dellinger was so bitter on how lucky she is! She could do as she pleased just because she is related to Doffy and since she was a Celestial Dragon, nobody dared looking, hence seeking trouble with her. And the worst is, Doffy would be occupied with her, all the time, trying to impress her with this and that. It's fucking annoying!
"It's her again." Giola murmured.
"At time like this-dasuyan..." Buffalo stared in worry.
"Honestly, she creeps me out." Sugar pouted.
Dellinger gritted his teeth, but he said nothing and watched as their Master approached a dark haired girl who floated in the middle of pool.
---- Doflamingo POV----
"You're here again, Luffy."
Donquixote Luffy was a girl with petite form, raven black hair and charcoal orbs. She would past for any Easterner with that humble look. First time he knew about her existence was two years ago in his Auction House. He was only informed about Rosward's family attendance which is the usual customer to his trading business. He had no idea there's another Celestial Dragon attended the auction under a disguise. From the camera feed, Doffy watched in both horror and excitement when she caused scene by screaming and hitting Charlos with haki-infused punch, the dumbass thrown across the hall like debris.
"I am Donquixote Luffy. Just because I'm a girl, you had no right to control how I breathe, how I dressed and why I'm here!" She pointed at knocked out Charlos and by her presence, everyone shrunk in their chairs and unable to raise their head. "Anyone who dared questioning my action, will meet my fist. Now tell me where the hell is Rayleigh!"
Doffy woudn't lie, he gained pride from watching her hostility, aside a boner. Luffy was a lady from the Line of Kings who put down his Auction House just because she was searching for an old man. In no time, Cipher Pol and Navy closed off the building, some of them escorted Rosward's family, and thankfully Rosinante was currently around to stop her from tearing the place down. While Doffy still hated Rosi for being a double agent, apparently after he became Shichibukai, Rosi's position as Vice Admiral in Marine could give him some benefit too. Glad he didn't kill Rosi back then.
"Hi, Cousin." She grinned at him, while still floating on the water, "I am visiting, isn't that obvious?"
If only she was that simple, but Doffy knew it better.
"Waka, this is the report of Punk Hazard Incident." Gladius showed up and passed him the paper, with the news so bad he was caught frowning. Damn Law.
----- Dellinger POV ----
Dellinger still watched them from under the shadow, fed up by jealousy. During her stay, Luffy would sleep in Doffy's room even snatched his pink mantle and stole food on his plate. the amount of inappropriate behavior is triggering and she wasn't even pretty! Her face is standard, with eyes, nose and everything else. There's no charismatic aura like Doffy's or Rosi's cuteness. But still, others would whisper the story of how fearsome she was and her crews who after pirates with bounties.
It could be overestimated rumors, but Dellinger was sure he didn't want to test his luck by confirming it to her.
It's unnaceptable! Dellinger gritted his teeth. This shitty girl can easily made Doffy into her fucking boytoy!
"Waka, this is the report on the Punk Hazard Incident." Gladius approached them and Dellinger overheard she commented,
"Mingo, why'd all of your executives dressed like weirdos?"
Dellinger saw red. That bitch!
Doffy just snickered back, "now now, let's not bully my family. By the way, you better have a good reason to be here, Luffy. As much as I enjoy your visit, I'm quite busy right now. Trafalgar Law exposed my private business in Punk Hazard. Fucking traitor, that kid!"
----- Luffy POV ----
"-Fucking traitor, that kid!"
Luffy stood on the water with her haki, before she jumped off the pool and snatched Mingo's pink coat and draped it around her back. "You mean, that handsome new Shichibukai?" she tiptoed to peek at the report, "Humm, I was hoping to meet him."
"And for what business?" Mingo raised his eyebrows.
"For the eye-candy." Luffy grinned again, "anyway Ace would love to discuss this stuff with you. Ace loved boring stuffs."
On cue, the CP Agent in black suit appeared next to them. He was wearing a Noh Cat Mask, and so far everyone only knew him as Ace. Luffy grinned, she loved the agent's mysterious vibe as long as she could pick the mask for them.
"I am here to process your request to World Government, Doflamingo-san." Masked Ace smiled radiantly, "and I heard that you hold a match in Colosseum with a devil fruit as prize. That's actually smart distraction since everyone in Dressrosa including the pers will focus on it."
"Sabo is participating." Luffy giggled. "So did big names with big bounties. I bet Zoro is already going through his list, shishishi~"
"Oi, oi, Cipher Pol can't enlist!" Doffy growled softly.
"Come on! Sabo just wanted that devil fruit! He promised to be in disguise so don't worry, Mingo! Although I don't have idea why people want to lose their ability to swim. I love swimming." Luffy sniffed something in the air and her face changed into pure bliss, "Oh this smell so good. I want to check on the food. SAAANNNNJIIII!!! IS THE MEAT READY?!"
And that's how she left Mingo with Ace and stunned Gladius.
----Law POV----
Meanwhile, Trafalgar Law stood on the deck of Navy Battleship, staring at the Dressrosa port. In his view, they set anchor next to a familiar galleon ship dominated in red and gold color. His eyes met with a small racoon noticed him looking and in no time they held an intense staring contest.
"It's that girl's ship." Smoker stood next to him, breaking his focus. "Have you met her, Trafalgar Law? Donquixote Luffy."
Yes, he did. He was in that Auction House with his crews when they witnessed a young girl in a simple dress and straw hat dares yelling and attacking an ugly Celestial Dragon. He had no idea who she was but he was smiling and enjoying her stunt and her monstrous strength. She wasn't alone though, there are people who stood with her as everyone scattered out building. Her friends set free the slaves, including the mermaid. Then Silver Rayleigh made his appearance and she was shouting at him,
"Ah, I finally found you, Ray-Ossan! We've been seeking you all over places!"
"Are you Ralia-chan?! It's been awhile, you hardly change!"
"It's been 20 years, Ossan, and it's Luffy! Honestly I didn't even look alike mother!" While the man continued to laugh, the girl snapped, "anyway, I believe we never met, but Ace highly recommended you, Ray-Ossan." Whoever this Ace was, the name apparently brought the old man to a brief shock, "He told me you could help us."
"Ace, huh?" Rayleigh smirked, "I refuse."
"EEEH?! Why not?!"
Too bad Law couldn't stay any longer, because Cora-san already came to contain the situation. On his way to retreat, Law brushed past the man who raised him and pretended they were enemy, but then he couldn't resist a smile when Cora-san tripped. The clumsiness hardly changed.
"Donquixote Luffy." Law repeated the name. "I heard her crew led by a pirate hunter and people who are dead to the rest of the world." The racoon now accompanied by Soul King, once an infamous soul singer. Aside than paperless rumors, it's hard to find any news about Luffy in person.
"Recently she visited Fishman Island, since Donquixote Family supported treaty with Ryugu Kingdom-dara." Bastille joined in the conversation.
"But why she's in Dressrosa?" Maynard asked.
Smoker stared down at the flashy ship, now the racoon and bone were accompanied with Nico Robin, once captured in Enies Lobby yet somehow her bounty was revoked and she was set free as part of Luffy's crew. "Why don't we ask them ourselves?"
"We don't have to."
A voice came from a shadow, "we are here to investigate the incident in Punk Hazard and see if Trafalgar Law said the truth. As much as I dislike it, a Celestial Dragon can summon an Admiral to do as they pleased and I hope we can avoid anything that will put our investigation in waste."
Law stared at the shadow figure sharply, although he wasn't fond of any admiral in particular, what this man said is true. So he took a glance at the smaller ship again, now there are more people standing in line. There are Raccoon, Bone-ya, Nico-ya, Long Nose-ya, Orange Haired Girl, and a Cyborg?
---- Mugiwara Crews POV ----
"Guys, why did the Navy look at us like that? Are we parking in the wrong spot?" Usopp asked in a bit of panic, "shit, are they gonna give us tickets? Is there a parking violation for the ship?!"
"That's Admiral Battleship." Robin chuckled, "I can see a few big names there, including Trafalgar Law, the new Shichibukai."
"That is a Shicibukai? I thought they're all over fourties, except for Hancock." Nami eyes widened in awe, "wait! Why Admiral is here, did Luffy summon them?!"
"Should we ask them?" Franky stared at the ship sharply, openly expressing his dislike at the Navy or any authority in particular. He joined Luffy for the promise of freedom, and never once Luffy betrayed him, despite she was from a worse kind of people.
"No, I don't think Luffy summoned them." Zoro yawned, as he walked to join the others on the line, a list of bounty in his hand, "Remember the tournament in Colosseum? There are plenty of pirates and fugitives there. I bet the Navy wanted to take their chance in capturing some."
"Ah right! The tournament!"Nami snapped. "We better hurry if we wanted to catch some names before the Navy did!"
Usopp sighed, "Nami your eyes turned into 'Berries' again..."
Brook groomed his coat, "That sounds fun, then I'll be going with you, Yohoho~"
"Me too, I wanna see Sabo-san did his match." Robin chuckled.
"I can smell trouble." Usopp shuddered, "I didn't know how or when but one thing for sure, I don't want to be there when it happened."
"Then why don't you go with me to Green Bit, Usopp?" Franky snickered, "There are still plants you want to explore, right? And I can have a superrrzzz sparring time with the fighter fish."
"Oh, that's a great idea, Franky! I'd rather strolling in the forest than facing any Pirates or Navy."
Chopper still watched the Navy and his eyes focused on Trafalgar Law. He cleared the throat. "T-then I'll go to see Luffy and Sanji at the palace." He decided.
"Yosh, let's go, Everyone!"
