The banquet grew livelier by the minute. With Streusen's superb cooking skills and the power of his Cook-Cook Fruit, delicious desserts and dishes kept arriving at the table.
Titan loved to eat, and so did Charlotte Linlin. Streusen's power always provided plenty of food.
Titan devoured the food. He noticed something strange in his body but paid it no mind.
As time passed, the sensation grew stronger. His body burned as if it were on fire, and a fierce desire rose within him. At last, Titan realized something was wrong.
"Oh no."
Titan's constitution was simply too formidable. His powerful digestion had broken down most of even the potent drug, keeping it from having the intended effect.
Streusen knew it was time to act. He signaled Linlin with a glance.
Linlin had been ready all along. She had not even been in the mood to enjoy the food.
The instant Streusen gave the signal, Charlotte Linlin lunged at Titan and pinned him down with her monstrous strength.
Caught off guard, Titan failed to react. He had no idea what Charlotte Linlin intended to do.
That moment of hesitation gave Streusen his chance. He leaped into the air, pulled out a huge pair of Seastone Handcuffs made specifically for Titan, and locked them around his wrists.
A powerful wave of weakness hit Titan. His ability seemed to fall dormant, while the drug he had been given earlier began to take effect.
He realized then that Charlotte Linlin was making a move against him.
Even in Seastone Handcuffs, Titan still possessed terrifying strength.
But it was too late. One slip had cost him dearly!
Weakened as he was, he could not resist Charlotte Linlin at all.
Charlotte Linlin could wait no longer. She scooped Titan up and carried him into a room.
