After telling his girls that they would sink the ship, Josh had accepted the new crazy quest.

[Ding: Sink the ship under the Vice Admiral's nose.

Objective: Sink the ship and make it unable to follow you.

Reward:

- x1 Mystery Box Tier 4

What you are betting on:

-1000 Draw points.]

'If I make it out today safely… No… When I make it out, I will be way powerful than before.'

If Josh accepted this quest, then he has no choice but to complete the mission.

After all, if he failed, then there is a chance that he would be indebted to the system with 1000 draw points.

That's one billion Berries.

Choosing yes, Josh felt that he is taking the risk. Walking to the other side of the ship after telling the girls the plan, Josh jumped to the sea, sneakingly, transforming into his Demon Form under the water.

The Warship was approaching them faster than they could move. Robin stared at them, her arms crossed, ready to move at any moment.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

Many cannon balls flew toward them, ready to explode at them.

Kalifa, taking a step forward and kicking, sent a big air blade arc out of her leg.

The cannonballs and the projectile clashed against each other, making explosions appears in the air.

"That's it, go for it." Mikita cheered up Kalifa by patting her shoulder.

Kalifa frowned as she bit her lip, before turning and faking a smile at Mikita's face.

"Sure." Feeling pissed off, Kalifa turned and started kicking, sending big projectiles out of her legs toward the battleship.

As the pressed air blades got closer to the battleship, the marine in the lead jumped off it, waved his sword, reflecting the arcs, before he used Moonwalk to kick on the air and go back to his position.

He then gave Kalifa a glare, who gave him a sneer back.

Kalifa, if she had Haki, should have a better chance.

But CP9 elites hadn't learnt it yet because of the mission they had in Water 7.

Still, she can distract the Vice-Admiral if she acts smarter.

Kalifa lifted her long leg and kept kicking big projectiles in different directions.

The Vice Admiral, although he is strong, was getting distracted by the directions of the air blades that can cut his ship.

That wasn't the end. While Kalifa was making the Vice-Admiral defend the ship from harm, the battleship aimed its tens of canons toward the ship, shooting cannonballs.

The only thing that made the canon balls miss their target was Kalifa.

Meanwhile, Marianne floated a bit, opened her arms, and send plasma with different colours to the sky.

If one looked at what she was unleashing, they would see a square cloud, moving toward them, while having many yellow and orange shapes in the middle.

"Don't look, this shape would make you feel dizzy and throw up," Marianne said as she looked at the ground.

Kalifa, even though she is a vampire, had her face turn green.

Putting her hand on her mouth, she lowered her head. Mikita closed her eyes, meanwhile, Robin, wasn't even looking.

Meanwhile, Josh was under the battleship.

Although he knows that Robin can destroy it on her own, he knows that the crew down could fix it in time.

It would still cause them trouble and give marines the time to fix their ship.

Josh wanted to make this one swift strike so that he can assure he won't be 1000 Draw Points in debt to the system.

While looking at Robin hands that surrounded the ship under the water, forming fists, Josh took his sword.

As Josh felt the shockwaves outside stopping, he knew that Kalifa and Marianne were giving him a good chance for a swift strike. Josh waved his sword in a triangle shape, making himself an entrance.

As Josh entered the lowest level of the ship, he met with some cleaning boys.

Upon seeing his demonic face and feeling his wrath aura, they started falling from fear.

When Josh saw their reaction against his wrath, in frustration he said, "finally."

One can only imagine his feeling of frustration. Even Kalifa had resisted it. Josh had thought it may be useless. But now, Josh regained his trust in his wrath attribute.

Josh used Shave and appeared on the floor above, where there were many marines aiming cannons and putting cannonballs in them.

Seeing them puking and acting like dizzy drank men, Josh didn't look at the window, knowing that Marianne is using her hypnosis shape.

Josh waved his hand many times at them.

Since he had developed storm legs, Josh can use them with his arms.

The marines had slashes appears on their chests and arms.

Some lost limbs as they had soft bodies while the elites with a tougher bodies could withstand it before falling.

One man, who was holding two guns, looked at Josh as he dodged his slash. That marine was surely an elite, given his coat of a commander.

Moving around so swiftly, he aimed his two guns at Josh.

He pulled the trigger at unimaginable speed. It was surprisingly shocking since the shooting rate can rival a machine-gun's from Josh's world. And the gun was strong enough to handle the shooting rate.

Josh quickly took his sword out of the sheath and started spinning it in the air. When the bullets reached him, they either reflected, hitting the other dizzy marines, or they span along with the sword. When the guns-master appeared standing on the roof, Josh vanished and appeared behind him, stabbing him in the back, before kicking him down, sinking his face to the cold wood.

Now that Josh assured that he destroyed the guys below, who can fix things, he knew it's time to leave.

He didn't want to stay longer so he wouldn't alert the ones with Haki or bizarre Devil Fruit ability.

Taking his epic rank sword, Josh made his way down to the water, cutting the base of the ship in half, which means that the ship can never be fixed now.

Robin, with her strength, had a great destructive force. If she knew Haki, she may have destroyed Buster Call before they approach them.

Truly wasted potentials.

But now, this is enough.

As the ship started sinking, the Vice-Admiral, who was above, flashed down. He had his sword as he looked around to the slashed crew. Clenching his fist tightly around the sword, he lifted his head and cursed. "Damn it!"

The marines have been tricked today, and the Admiral, who is sitting on his chair throne-like here, wouldn't let this pass easily for him.

The vice admiral flashed and appeared on the deck, looking at the disgusting shape in front of him.

Looking in front of him, the Vice-Admiral unsheathed his Katana and held the sword with two hands.

When he waved the blade, a great air blade that split the sea in from him cut the hypnosis cloud. When the cloud was cleared, the Gambler and his crew were moving away from them.

The Vice Admiral, Momonga, bit on his bottom lip. The Gambler was rising his middle finger at them.

Not only so, but their small boat seemed to be moving at a great speed that no one can imagine. It was getting far like it was supported by an engine.

***

[Ding, gamble: Sink the ship under the Vice Admiral's nose. completed]

[Rewards are transferred to the storage.]

[Ding, Gamble: Destroying the legend of Buster Call is completed]

[Rewards are transferred to the storage.]

Today, Josh would enter history, even if he ended up dying somehow.

He, of course, escaped under the nose of the marines and sank their ship.

Josh, who was on the deck, turned to Robin and said. "Your legs are stronger for sure."

"Fufufu… because you trained them not to be numb." Robin smiled at Josh.

Beneath their boat, Robin having copy legs there, almost a hundred legs moving their

boat.

Those legs were allowing them to move at a great speed. Because of the physical strength that she has now, she could resist the water-resistance and push the ship, making it move as fast as a Fishman, or faster.

"I'll see how much they got stronger later." Josh winked at her before turning to Mikita, who said.

"I'm more agile, you know." As she said that, she shook her hips, trying to get his attention.

"Sure, Chocolate," Josh said, before walking forward and patting Marianne on the head.

Marianne, blushing without her make-up blush, looked up to him. "Did I do a good job?"

"No."

"Huh?"

"You did a great job." Opening his arms, Josh rested them on her back and hugged her to him. "I'm proud of you."

"Sure."

As Marianne smiled happily, Josh took his hands back and was about to sit on the wet deck.

The girls, who were about to smile, flinched when they noticed the change in his expression.

"What's going on?" Kalifa, who was new here, asked.

Robin, Mikita, and Marianne held their heart.

They had seen this expression on Josh's face when Spandam had tricked them by using Buster Call.

They believed it's some sort of Demonic intuition only Josh has access to.

[Ding, a new Gamble is available for you. ]

Bitting on his bottom lip, Josh looked around, holding his sword out of his sheath.

"An Admiral is here." Said Josh, after giving the gamble the system gave a glance.

The heat raised all of the sudden. In the sky, a big red fist appeared. It was red and liquid, yet looked so heavy and intact. As it was approaching them, the weather in the sea felt hotter than it would be in Alabasta.

Josh, turning into his complete demon form, waved his sword with all of his might, sending a great air blade.

When the hot giant fist and the sword arc met, the fist was split in half. But it did not stop. Luckily, Josh's attack delayed it. When it landed on the water, it vaporised, and somehow, a black stone appeared above the sea.

Had that touched them, they would be burned.

Josh's heart started beating faster.

"Robin, more speed!" Josh called in a hurried tone.

Robin nodded. Crossing her arms, she called. "Thousands of flowers.." More legs appeared beneath the ship, and they started taking them away at a greater speed.
