Damn Celestial Dragons, Die For Me! (Seeking Follow-up Reads! Seeking Monthly Votes!)

The One Piece world.

Holy Land Mary Geoise.

Located at the summit of the Red Line, this was the headquarters of the World Government and the residence of the Celestial Dragons.

Ever since Fisher Tiger once wreaked havoc on Mary Geoise and liberated thousands of slaves, no other slave had ever managed to escape from this place.

For the vast majority, there was only one way to leave.

That was death.

After departing from the Unknown Land, One Piece Lynn opened his eyes.

His left hand was gripped tightly by a blonde woman beside him.

The woman was dressed in rags, her fair skin and full, tender flesh visible through the holes in her tattered clothing.

However, the flaw was the whip marks covering her hands, feet, abdomen, and back.

On her shoulder was a brand burned by a Celestial Dragon, a sight that would stir pity in anyone who saw it.

Lynn, too, bore the same brand on his body.

As the power of Electric Current Drive combined with the physical constitution of DC Lynn, the mark of the Celestial Dragon on his body began to fade significantly.

I suppose I won't be able to completely erase this brand until my Magnetic Field Rotation reaches the point of cellular reorganization, Lynn whispered.

The woman holding his left hand was named Penny, also a slave to a Celestial Dragon.

They were currently located in the bedchamber of Saint Charlos.

To escape, they had to flee from Saint Charlos's bedchamber, then make their way out of Celestial Dragon City.

After that, they would still face the danger of descending from the Red Line to the sea.

Most crucially, the Marine Headquarters was situated on both sides of the Red Line.

The moment anything happened to a Celestial Dragon, a Marine Admiral and CP0 would be dispatched immediately.

CP0 was an organization subordinate to the Celestial Dragons, hailed as the "strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons."

Not to mention that among the Celestial Dragons, there existed the so-called God's Knights.

It could be said that for Lynn to escape and gain his freedom, the difficulties were insurmountable.

Clack, clack, clack!!

Footsteps echoed incessantly from outside.

Clearly, the guards of Saint Charlos's bedchamber were aware that he and Penny had escaped their cage.

Hearing the footsteps, Penny's expression changed instantly.

She scavenged two guns from the fallen guards and handed one to Lynn beside her.

"Lynn, take this gun. When they come in, we'll charge out together!"

Penny's voice was hurried and trembling.

She was clearly terrified of the Celestial Dragons and those guards.

"Don't worry, we will definitely make it out."

Lynn squeezed her hand and said firmly.

Although the path to escape was fraught with obstacles, if one lacked even the conviction to escape, how could one speak of freedom?

Thinking this, the cells throughout Lynn's body began to rub against each other frantically, and the pure power generated began to grow stronger and more potent.

Electric Current Drive 100,000 Volts → Electric Current Drive 120,000 Volts!

"You two had better kneel on the ground and beg for mercy right now; perhaps Saint Charlos will show some leniency later," a middle-aged man locked in a cage nearby said, watching Lynn and Penny.

The cage holding him had already been opened by Lynn and Penny using the keys taken from the guards.

Yet, he chose to remain inside.

Having become a slave to the Celestial Dragons, this middle-aged man had lost the heart to regain his freedom.

Opposite him, another woman spoke up:

"Even I, a Devil Fruit user, wouldn't dare say I could escape from here, and you two aren't even ability users..."

She had been bought by a Celestial Dragon and had been a slave for eight years.

She had never once seen a slave successfully escape.

Seeing the determined expression on Lynn's face, the woman shook her head.

Clearly, she did not think highly of Lynn and Penny's attempt to escape.

Given Saint Charlos's recent temper, the way these two would die later would likely be quite gruesome.

"Hurry, hurry! Those damn slaves have escaped!"

"Heh heh... I never expected this group of slaves to be so ignorant of life and death, actually thinking they could escape."

"Exactly, exactly. I heard those two aren't even Devil Fruit users. It looks like we'll be able to take care of them quite easily."

"..."

Guards clad in metal armor and wielding firearms rushed toward the scene of the incident.

Behind them, Saint Charlos sat atop a burly man with knotted, bulging muscles.

He had curly black hair that pointed upward, a fat, bloated face, thick lips, and a constant stream of snot running from his nose.

In his hand, he held a chain, the other end of which was attached to a dog-collar-like device.

This device was fastened around the neck of the man beneath him, as if he were being led like a dog.

Beside Saint Charlos stood a man wearing a black uniform with two long swords tucked into his waist.

He was the direct bodyguard of the Celestial Dragon Saint Charlos, an agent named Kaku who had joined CP1 after leaving CP9.

"How interesting, more slaves trying to run away."

A look of excitement appeared on Saint Charlos's fat face.

"Later, I must make them watch each other while I slowly torture them.

Hee hee... the look of them breaking down will surely be a sight to behold, and then I can just sell them off..."

He did not believe that those two slaves could escape from his own living quarters.

After all, ever since Tiger wreaked havoc on the Holy Land Mary Geoise fifteen years ago, no slave had ever managed to escape from here again.

Kaku, standing beside him, also wore a smile and said flatteringly:

"Of course, noble Saint Charlos.

Those slaves don't know what's good for them. How could they possibly know that being your slave is the greatest blessing in this world?"

In their eyes, the two slaves dreaming of escape were simply insane.

To think of escaping after becoming a slave to a Celestial Dragon was nothing more than a pipe dream.

Soon, the guards carrying firearms arrived in the room.

Looking at Lynn and Penny, who had escaped their cage, the tall captain of the guards revealed a ferocious grin.

His gaze shifted from the guards lying on the ground to Lynn and Penny.

"I didn't expect there to be slaves who truly don't fear death, actually wanting to break out."

Luca, the guard captain, stared intently at the two slaves ahead, his eyes filled with malice.

In his eyes, these slaves were nothing but trash.

"Take them alive."

A lazy voice drifted from behind.

All the guards turned around, flashing fawning smiles at Saint Charlos.

"Yes! Noble Saint Charlos, we guarantee we will fulfill your request."

With that, Luca led several guards, weapons in hand, and began to walk slowly toward Lynn and Penny.

He narrowed his eyes, staring fixedly at the tall man, and barked:

"Slave 52! I advise you to put down that gun immediately, or you're going to have a very unpleasant time!"

Lynn and Penny ignored his words, keeping their guns trained on the guards.

Seeing that these two slaves paid him no mind, Luca's eyes filled with disgust.

These damn slaves, they didn't know when they were well off!

A mocking sneer curled his lips as he gripped his pistol and stepped forward.

Luca wanted to see exactly what kind of torture these two slaves would endure once they were dragged back!

Looking at the dozen or so guards before him, Lynn's face remained completely expressionless.

He was focused solely on Saint Charlos ahead, and the personal bodyguard beside him.

Through his Mangekyou Sharingan, he could see an inexplicable energy flowing within the bodyguard's body.

What was this?

Haki?

He shook his head internally and fixed his gaze on the obese, filthy-eyed Saint Charlos.

This guy was the root cause of all his suffering!

At the thought, the cells throughout Lynn's body surged frantically, the power of Electric Current Drive weaving together with his Chakra.

The Six Powers' Shave, the terrifying physiques of DC Lynn and One Piece Lynn, the Body Flicker Technique of Naruto Lynn, and the immense burst of power brought forth by Electric Current Drive.

These combined to turn Lynn's figure into a blurred afterimage in an instant, appearing directly before Saint Charlos.

Gazing at the hideous face of Saint Charlos, he wore a ferocious expression and clenched his fist tight.

Golden lightning coiled around his arm like a giant python.

"Electric Current Drive 120,000 Volts! Fist Gun!

Damn you, you wretched Celestial Dragon, go to hell!!"
