Who Would Like Your Art, Bastard!

Ah~

"The Black tea after the meal tasted really good!"

Brook sat on the deck, holding a cup of Black tea with a contented expression, looking quite relaxed.

"Brook, pour me a glass too!" Chopper said, raising his hand.

Okay~

Brook smiled upon hearing this, then turned and poured Chopper a cup of Black tea as well, handing it to Chopper and gesturing for him to try it.

"It tastes so good!"

"I'm glad you like it~"

Brook nodded, then looked at Nami, who seemed lost in thought, and said, "Miss Nami, would you like a drink?"

"I don't need it," Nami said, shaking her head.

She doesn't have the habit of drinking tea after meals.

Brook paused for a moment upon seeing this, then put down his teacup and said, "Nami, you look like you have something on your mind."

"Of course it's because of them."

Nami sighed and said, "So much time has passed, and still no message has been sent back..."

In this situation, how could she not overthink it?

Don't worry.

Brook said, "With their strength, there won't be any problems."

After all, Xi Yan is with Luffy, isn't he?

Therefore, Brook didn't think anything would happen.

That's true, but...

Clang!

Before Nami could finish speaking, she heard some strange noises.

And that sound... came from inside the ship's cabin!

Nami:!!!

Chopper:!!!

Brook:!!!

Why were there sounds of things being smashed coming from inside their cabin?

"There shouldn't be anyone else on this ship besides us," Nami said, her face grim.

"That's right."

"Could it be a ghost?"

"Wow!"

"Nami, how scary!"

Seeing Chopper clinging to her leg and yelling, Nami felt like crying.

Do you think I'm not afraid?

"Ugh, this is so annoying!" Jiao La, who was throwing things around inside the house, said unhappily, "This is really annoying!"

The decor here is anything but artistic!

"Wait, there seems to be someone inside!"

Nami, realizing what was happening, glanced at Chopper and Brook and said, "Go open the door and take a look."

After speaking, she summoned a cloud and made it float in the air in preparation for any unexpected situation.

Brook and Chopper exchanged a glance, then cautiously approached and opened the Great Gate.

"Huh?"

"Eh!!!"

The three of them were completely stunned by the scene at the entrance.

"What the hell is this?"

Why are the cabins of their pirate ship shaped like a picture?

That twisted feeling... it's disgusting!

"Franky will be furious to see this mess," Brook said, sounding somewhat exasperated.

What exactly happened?

Just then, Jiao La emerged from the shadows of the cabin, coldly staring at the three people standing outside the door.

This scene startled the three of them, who quickly retreated back onto the deck.

At this moment, Jiao La activated the power of his Devil Fruit once again, summoning a cloud of art.

Then, he threw it violently toward the Great Gate.

"Boom!"

The next moment, the areas touched by the art cloud began to twist and deform!

"Even the door has turned into a weird shape..." Chopper said in horror, "Was this done by a Devil Fruit user?"

"What kind of ability is this?"

"A mischievous fruit?" Brook guessed.

The things this ability creates are so morbidly absurd that he suspects it might be a "Morbidly Absurd Fruit."

"A fruit of perverse pleasure?"

Nami was stunned. Did such a Devil Fruit even exist in this world?

But when Nami considered that Paramecia Devil Fruit are inherently diverse and bizarre, she didn't find it strange at all.

Nami then became alert because the Great Gate, which looked like a child's drawing, had been opened.

"How annoying!"

Jiao La, peeking out from inside the door, put her hands on her hips and said, "I hate guys who have no artistic taste!"

Nami:???

What is this guy talking about?

"What exactly are you...?"

Before Nami could finish speaking, Lola interrupted her, "Shut up, you bastard!"

"Huh?"

Seeing the imposing Jiao La, Nami was startled and took a small step back, but remembering that the ship still needed her protection, she stepped back.

Then, Nami was about to say something, but before she could speak, Lola said, "Who... are you saying is the Mermaid Princess?"

Her expression was one of utter ecstasy, as if she truly were the Mermaid Princess.

Three people:???

"Nobody said it was good!" the three said, opening their shark-like mouths.

What does "Mermaid Princess" mean?

The Mermaid Princess doesn't look like that at all! Do they really think they're so ignorant?

Just then, two figures leaped up from the sea, each with an increasingly arrogant expression.

"How rude of you pirates!!"

Do you know who this person is?

"That's right, she's Lord Jora member of the Donquixote Family!"

"Oh, hahaha~"

Hearing his subordinate's words, Jiao La immediately smiled, feeling extremely proud.

"The Donquixote Family?!"

Nami looked at Jiao La with a grim expression and asked, "How did you find us?"

"I have no interest in answering your questions, Cat Burglar!" Jiao La said, wriggling his body. "Right now, I just want to show off my art!"

After saying that, Jiao La used his Devil Fruit power to create an artistic cloud, and then threw it fiercely at Nami and the other two.

"Feel my artistic soul!"

"Bump!"

Caught off guard, the three were directly hit by Jiao La's Devil Fruit ability.

The next moment, the three people's bodies began to twist, gradually developing into three-dimensional images, and eventually becoming three distorted picture figures!

"Hey, what's this?!"

Seeing his body transformed into a drawing, Chopper's expression immediately turned panicked.

What kind of ability is this?

Nami, looking at her body in horror, exclaimed, "Hey, why have I turned into a flat board?!"

Where did her huge pair of shoes go?

Asshole!

"What the hell is this?" Brook looked at his body, his expression twisted, and said, "I'm no longer like a skeleton!"

This feeling... is absolutely awful!

So ugly!

"Oh, hahaha~"

Jiao La, having observed the three's reactions, smiled and asked, "How's my art?"

"You bastard, what have you done?!" Nami roared.

Why am I, a Logia Fruit user, also affected by the other person's ability?

That's not scientific!

"Art, of course!" Jiao La said. "I am Art Person ate the Art Art Fruit, and I possess the powerful ability to create art!"

"You have now been transformed into illustrators of art by me~"

"Hahaha~"

Nami:???

What kind of abstract Devil Fruit ability is this?

"Change back right now!" Nami said, glaring at her.

"That's right, we don't want your art!"

Chopper jumped up too, looking very angry.

"No, no, no, I won't help you recover!" Jiao La said. "Don't forget we're enemies!"

The two sides have been mortal enemies since the beginning of Punk Hazard, so it's impossible for her to help the other party restore their body.

Seeing that Jiao La had already said that, Nami didn't say anything more, since it was impossible for him to help them recover their bodies.

"Alright, let me make you even more artistic now~" Jiao La summoned the Art Troupe again and said, "You'll definitely be satisfied this time~"

"I won't let you succeed!" Nami retorted angrily.

After saying that, she unleashed her Devil Fruit power without hesitation, intending to create more clouds to attack Jiao La.

To her surprise, the clouds she created this time were all in the form of pictures, and they didn't seem to have any offensive power at all!

"Huh?"

"Eh!!"

Nami was dumbfounded as she stared at the somewhat distorted cloud formation.

Why did the clouds she created turn out like this?

"Cat Burglar ~" Jiao La put down the cloud in his hand and looked at Nami with a look of great interest, saying, "You're a Cloud-Cloud Devil Fruit User, right?"

How did you know?!

"You underestimate our intelligence network," Jiao La mocked.

Upon hearing this, Nami's expression turned somewhat grim. She truly hadn't expected her enemy to figure out her Devil Fruit ability so quickly.

"Nami's ability has stopped working too..." Chopper said anxiously, "What do we do?"

He had originally planned to rely on Nami, a Logia Fruit user, to turn the tide, but it turned out that the opponent's ability could restrict Nami.

How am I supposed to fight this?

Nami didn't say anything, but stared intently at Jiao La, while also thinking of a way to deal with him.

"No one has been able to escape my art so far!" Jiao La said. "So I advise you not to waste your energy."

"No way!" X3

If they give up now, they will become prisoners of the enemy, who might then use their lives to threaten Luffy and his crew.

This is not something they can accept, so they must work out a solution.

Why bother?

Jiao La shook his head. Why continue to resist when he could simply behave himself and avoid suffering?

She really doesn't understand.

After shaking her head, Jiao La raised the ball of artistic cloud in her hand and said, "Forget it, there's no need to say anything more to you. Just take it."

Having said that, Jiao La threw the art cloud in his hand without hesitation.

Search~

As the artistic cloud approached, Nami's expression immediately turned grim.

If they were hit by that thing again, they might really be captured.

'No, absolutely not!'

The three of them cannot become a burden to their partners!

With that in mind, Nami decided to unleash her Devil Fruit powers to the fullest extent and see if she could withstand the enemy's abilities.

But before she could even make a move, she suddenly stopped, as if she had remembered something.

Then, without hesitation, he lifted the lid from under his feet.

"Bump!"

"Um?"

Looking at the manhole cover blocking his Devil Fruit power, several question marks immediately popped into Jiao La's head.

Why are there such strange things on this pirate ship?

No, that's not the point. The point is that those three people are missing!

Looking at the twisted and deformed manhole cover, Jiao La frowned and said, "Did it go below deck?"

Honestly, he's like a Nezumi.

"Ms. Jiao La, should we go down and capture them?" a subordinate asked.

No need to rush.

Jiao La scoffed and said, "They can't escape."

He had already turned the other party into a work of art that had lost its fighting ability, so there was no need to rush down to capture them. He should observe the situation below first to avoid casualties.

As Jiao La pondered this, he walked toward the manhole cover.

Meanwhile, Chopper, who had silently made his way to a higher position, took the opportunity to sneak up to the bow of the ship, used the control lever to open the weapon compartment of the Thousand Sunny, and released the Shark Submarine and Waver.

What was that sound?

Sensing something was wrong, Jiao La immediately turned around and noticed Chopper standing at the bow of the ship.

"You're actually here?" Jiao La exclaimed in surprise.

How did this kid escape my notice?

Could it be that they escaped using the smoke from earlier?

"You won't catch us!" Chopper said, sticking out his tongue.

He then turned and jumped towards the sea, landing safely on top of the Shark Submarine.

In this way, the three of them successfully distanced themselves from the Thousand Sunny, thanks to the Waver and the Shark Submarine.

"They escaped to the sea so easily?"

Jiao La stared in astonishment at the three people who had appeared on the sea and exclaimed, "Are you kidding me?"

How exactly did that toy-like thing manage to get them off the pirate ship?

"You want to capture us?" Nami scoffed. "You're dreaming!"

It was indeed their mistake to be attacked by the enemy at the beginning, but... they wouldn't be foolish enough to stay on the pirate ship and continue to be attacked by the enemy.

"Damn it, get back here right now!" Jiao La exclaimed, her eyes wide. "Don't you want to become more artistic?"

"Who would like your art?!" Nami roared, opening her shark-like mouth.

How could she possibly like it when her once-proud figure has been turned into this grotesque mess?

If it weren't for the fact that the cloud she created wasn't currently unusable, she would definitely have chopped that bastard up!

"How dare you dislike my art! I'm angry!" Jiao La roared.

As she spoke, she created clouds of Devil Fruit, intending to throw them at Nami and the others.

But Nami and the others clearly saw through Jiao La's intentions, so before she could even raise her hand, they had already driven off in their respective vehicles to escape into the distance, fearing that they would be hit by this guy's Devil Fruit ability again.

"Damn it, don't run away!"

"Only a fool wouldn't run."

"Ah!!!"

I'm angry!

Seeing Jiao La's exasperated expression, Nami and the other two couldn't help but smile, clearly pleased with Jiao La's reaction.

"I hope this guy doesn't keep causing trouble," Chopper whispered. "Otherwise, our Thousand Sunny might be in trouble..."

"I don't know either," Nami shook her head.

All she could do now was pray that this guy named Jiao La wouldn't attack their pirate ship, otherwise the Thousand Sunny would be doomed.

Thinking of this, Nami sighed silently.
