Reaping What You Sow

Soon, the hypnotic gas dissipated, and Usopp was beaten so badly that his Byakugan rolled back and his consciousness became blurred.

"Finally got it?" Sugar said.

"He just fainted."

Trebol, carrying Sugar, arrived near Usopp, stroked his chin, and looked at Usopp, saying, "He should still have some time before he dies."

"However... I must say, this guy's pretty tough."

He beat them up like that, and they're still alive. They're really tough.

Then, Trebol shook his head with some regret.

The person who ate this Devil Fruit doesn't Haki, that's really...

Just then, the Den Den Mushi in Trebol's arms suddenly rang.

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Kaga ~"

"Trebol, what was that loud noise coming from down there?" Doflamingo asked, frowning. "What happened?"

"We fought with the Straw Hat Pirates and razed this place, the Executive Tower, to the ground," Trebol said.

Doflamingo:???

They actually destroyed his Executive Tower?

No, besides Straw Hat and the Pirate Hunter, does the Straw Hat Pirates have anyone else with that kind of strength?

'Looks like I underestimated the Straw Hat Pirates,' Doflamingo thought to himself.

Then, Doflamingo said, "Trebol, quickly escort Sugar to the Royal Palace."

Although I don't know what the situation is over there, I'd better get the Sugar to myself first, just in case something goes wrong.

"Hahaha~"

"It's alright, Doflamingo," Trebol laughed. "I've already taken care of the enemy."

If anything unexpected still happens under these circumstances, then it can only be said that even God is on the other side's side.

Doflamingo frowned upon hearing this, but considering Trebol's strength, he didn't say anything more, nodded, and ended the call.

Sugar, meanwhile, brought the Tabasco Star to Usopp's side while the two were chatting.

Looking at the man who was firmly trapped by the slime, Sugar tilted her head and looked at him, clearly thinking about something.

"Uso Landu..."

Seeing Usopp and the Leo unconscious, tears streamed down their faces.

That's it, all hope is gone.

As if he had heard Leo's call, Usopp's eyes gradually regained their clarity.

Although he was still unable to move his body, he could already vaguely see what was in front of him.

"I..."

"Um?"

Upon noticing that Usopp had woken up, Sugar instinctively took a few steps back, clearly afraid that the guy might suddenly attack him.

But when they saw that Usopp could only open his eyes, they relaxed again.

"Oh, so it was just a final burst of energy before death."

I made her worry for nothing.

Sugar then picked up the Tabasco Star in her hand, moved it in front of Usopp, and said, "This thing you're so eager to make me eat must be extremely poisonous, right?"

"Hmph, then you can try it yourself."

After saying that, Sugar threw the King Chili Pepper in her hand into Usopp's mouth.

Usopp:!!!

'It's over!'

At this moment, time seemed to slow down.

Usopp's eyes were fixed on the Tabasco Star flying towards his mouth, his pupils suddenly contracting.

Was this Tabasco Star, whose spiciness he had intensified several times over, ultimately going to be tossed into his mouth?

Asshole!

This could kill someone!!!

At this moment, Usopp was filled with regret.

Why did he enhance this Tabasco Star in the first place?

Isn't this reaping what you sow?

The next moment...

"Gurgle~"

"Hmph." Sugar sneered as she watched Usopp swallow the Tabasco Star, and said, "Die."

Although we don't know how toxic this thing is, it's highly likely to kill people, so this guy is doomed.

Sugar then turned her attention to the other Tontatta, pondering how to deal with them.

"Uso Landu..."

"Our Tata Tabasco..."

The Tontatta who witnessed this scene were filled with despair.

Now they not only lack their secret weapon, but they've also lost Uso Landu, their hero... It's all over.

'Usopp...'

Nico Robin and Perona, who also witnessed this scene, had eyes filled with despair.

Usopp lost, which means they can no longer turn back into humans.

Thinking about this, they felt even more desperate.

At that moment, as if he had been subjected to some intense stimulus, Usopp's eyes instantly turned bloodshot.

Then, the man opened his mouth and let out an extremely shrill scream, while simultaneously spewing fire wildly from his Barry.

"Ah!!!"

"Ah!!!"

Sugar, who witnessed this scene almost face-to-face, was so terrified that her eyes bulged out, and she also let out a shrill scream.

At that moment, the entire Underground Factory was filled with the screams of two people.

However, Usopp's screams sounded even more terrifying and were much louder.

"Huh?!!"

The Tontatta were completely dumbfounded by what they saw. What kind of move was this?

Trebol stared in shock at the scene before him. What was he seeing?

That guy, who was already on the verge of death, was screaming so miserably after ingesting their own poison?

Also, why was Sugar so scared?

Hello!

Don't be so scared you faint!

"Sugar, what are you doing?!" Trebol shouted in alarm. "Get your act together!"

Unfortunately, Sugar was on the verge of collapse and couldn't listen to Trebol's words at all.

Then, he completely lost consciousness.

"Huh?"

"Sugar... Sugar has fainted?!" Leo exclaimed in shock.

Uso Landu managed to knock Sugar unconscious in such a way... that's really amazing!

Is this what a hero is?!

That's amazing!

"I'm... I'm dizzy?!"

Trebol stared at Sugar in utter shock; he never dreamed that the Straw Hat Pirates would knock Sugar unconscious in such a way.

Was this something the other party planned from the beginning?

The next moment...

"Buzz~"

After losing Sugar's control, the toys began to vibrate, and then changed at an astonishing speed, visibly reverting to human forms!

"It's back!"

Nicole Robin looked at her body with excitement; for the first time, she felt that being able to use her own body was an incredibly happy thing.

"I've recovered too!"

Perona, who rushed out of the ruins, burst into tears of excitement.

She never wanted to experience that feeling of powerlessness, of being turned into a toy, again.

That's utterly despairing.

"Hala hala hala~"

"It feels so wonderful to be human!"

"Hey, we've turned back into humans!"

The toys that had transformed back into humans in the Underground Factory immediately roared excitedly.

"That's great!"

Being turned into a toy means losing even the most basic human rights; that feeling is utterly despairing.

Now, they've finally recovered!

"What exactly is going on?"

The henchmen, who were right there with Don Quixote, watched in horror at everything happening around them, their minds completely blank.

Why did all those toys suddenly turn back into humans?

"You bastard!"

A human emerged from under the wooden crate, his eyes coldly fixed on a lowly henchman, and said, "How dare you order me around so brazenly... you're practically courting death!"

After saying that, the man punched the henchman in the face, sending him flying.

This acted like a fuse, igniting the anger of the entire group.

"Kill them!"

"They dare to treat us like animals, kill them!"

"Profound!!!"

These guys, now back in human form, immediately grabbed whatever weapons were at hand and charged at the Donquixote Family like madmen, determined to wipe them all out!

"Um?"

Looking at the toy that had suddenly turned back into Tontatta, Leo paused for a moment, then hesitated and asked, "F... Flapper?"

"It's me!" Flapper exclaimed excitedly. "That's wonderful! You finally remembered me."

"I'm sorry, I forgot about you before," Leo said, his eyes filled with tears.

"It doesn't matter."

Flapper shook his head and said, "It's all because of Sugar's abilities that you've forgotten us. I don't care."

Then, he excitedly continued, "Leo, SOP Operation was a success!"

"That's right, SOP Operation was a success!"

Leo shouted excitedly, "We did it!"

After paying an incredibly heavy price, their battle plan finally succeeded!

At this moment, the Tontatta were incredibly excited.

"Hey, Sugar."

Trebol, who was holding Sugar and shaking him, shouted with a face full of cold sweat, "Wake up!"

"Hey, wake up!"

"It's over... it's completely over."

He thought everything was under control, but then this happened... At this moment, Trebol was filled with regret.

If he had intervened and killed the Straw Hat Pirates in time, this wouldn't have happened.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as "however" in this world.

Damn it, what should I do?

What should I do?

No, I need to tell Doflamingo about the situation here right away.

With that in mind, Trebol immediately took out his Den Den Mushi and dialed Doflamingo's number.

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Kaga."

"What's wrong?" Doflamingo asked.

As he spoke, Doflamingo wore a confident smile, as if everything was under his control.

Although the fact that the Tontatta and the Straw Hat Pirates were mixed up together was a bit of a surprise to him, Doflamingo didn't pay much attention to it since the two groups of small fry together couldn't cause any big waves.

But Trebol's next words made him stop laughing.

"Oh no, Doflamingo!" Trebol cried, "Sugar... Sugar..."

"I'm sorry, Doflamingo!"

As he spoke, Trebol burst into tears, which streamed down his face.

"It's so noisy, Trebol," Buffalo yelled, his head throbbing.

What's gotten into this guy again?

"What's wrong with Sugar?" Doflamingo asked.

"She... Sugar has fainted."

Buffalo:???

Doflamingo:!!!

Buffalo stared at the Den Den Mushi with a puzzled look on his face. What had he just heard?

Did I hear that right?

Doflamingo's expression froze, and he could no longer laugh.

"What's wrong?"

Luffy, peering through the window, whispered, "What happened?"

"Sugar has fainted," Violet exclaimed excitedly.

The Straw Hat was right, that man really did it!

"So, Usopp and his group succeeded?" Xi Yan said with a smile.

"Right!"

"I knew it!" Luffy grinned. "He's the kind of man who does what he says."

Just like he said, Usopp is definitely capable of doing it.

"Hey, are you kidding me?!"

Doflamingo stared at the Den Den Mushi with a grim expression, exclaiming excitedly, "Trebol, are you serious?!"

"This joke isn't funny at all."

If what Trebol said is true, then the Donquixote Family is completely finished.

After all... there are all sorts of people among those toys!

"I'm not joking."

Trebol said anxiously, "Sugar has really fainted."

"Now those toys are gradually turning back into humans."

"The power of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit has completely lost its effect."

At this moment, Trebol also knew what this meant.

After ten years of operation, Dressrosa is about to slip away from their grasp.

Not only that, the young master will also be stripped of his title as Shichibukai by the Navy because of this incident, and will become a wanted criminal.

At that time... the Navy will not let them get away with it.

It's over, everything is over.

"Asshole..."

Doflamingo was grinding his teeth to powder. Why did this happen today?

"Young Master!"

Buffalo pointed at the live stream and shouted, "Look at the Colosseum! The toys over there have turned back into humans!"

Upon hearing this, Doflamingo turned to look at him, and then his expression turned even more grim.

This time, it wasn't just Trebol's retelling; I witnessed firsthand how the toys turned back into humans.

The situation is absolutely terrible right now.

"What happened?"

The host, microphone in hand, stared blankly at the changes in the Audience seats. Why did those toys suddenly turn into humans?

"Heh, it seems the darkness here is even deeper than I imagined," Sabo sneered.

Diamante, who witnessed the same scene, immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"These toys have turned back into humans?" Diamante's eyes widened. "Could it be that Sugar...?"

Diamante, who understood the power of the Sugar- Devil Fruit, immediately realized what had happened.

Sugar must have fainted, otherwise Sugar Devil Fruit ability wouldn't have failed!

Damn it, what the hell is that idiot Trebol good for?

Why would Sugar cause an accident?

What the hell is that bastard doing?!
