That kid, he's got guts for sticking his nose into that Hitman's business. What, does he like her or somethin'? It pisses me off- That bald asshole's going to feel my rage the next time we meet. I don't care what people may think of me! Villain or not, I'm not as low as to hurt or kill kids! growled the Crocodile man who sat at the bottom of a river. Thoughts of Tadami swarmed his mind with a spiral of hatred and rage, his crossed legs curled up a little more during so.


Those large biceps tightly flexed from the evident anger as he remained there with folded arms; his piercing, yellow eyes couldn't help but squint from it. First thing's first! Find his daughter and protect her from the likes of the League. She didn't want to join, so why the hell are they forcing her?! Once more, he pondered, until, a large fish swam in his direction and tried to move out of the way.


With a strong grip from his hand, the fish was caught just before it got to get around his large form. An effortless movement was all it took, for it to die, his sharp teeth ripped the head of it off and made blood fill a small portion of the water. The bones in his mouth couldn't be heard when they crunched, his chews looked as natural as a Crocodile snatching prey with its jaws.


At that moment, a collection of his memories ran through his mind as he chewed on the fish's severed head.


~~~Flashback~~~


"Help, a villain!" a man screamed, as his thick boots stomped when he raced down the sidewalk. Clad in formal attire, the man had run from Wani who was carrying groceries with both of his hands.


The long, Crocodile tail flailed slightly at the sight when he saw the stranger pointing at him, as he sprinted. Those yellow hues blinked confusedly before they looked down to see the man's wallet half-open. "Oi, you dropped your wallet!" His natural Crock smirk frowned when his gaze widened. So, quickly, he moved one set of groceries into another hand to pick it up and chased after the stranger.


He hoped he'd catch up to him, losing your wallet was losing a lot of your information to anyone around willing to grab it. He didn't want that, his kind heart only pushed him into chasing down the stranger as he weaved through screaming citizens. "Sir!" he tried to get the man's attention, as he jumped over crates and crowds of people with his inhuman strength.


Everyone gasped at the sight of how high he leaped, however, the sound of police sirens wailed as their flashing lights flashed in their approach. He didn't understand what was going on, so all Wani did was try to corner the man.


It didn't seem to work, though. The stranger turned around and whipped his gun out, he shook like a leaf as he watched the hulking beast that towered over him at 6'8 feet, gradually come closer.


"S- Stay where you are!" Fearful human eyes bore into astonished Crock ones, he never expected to see Wani lift his hand to reveal the wallet. "Y- You stole my wallet! I knew it! I knew you were evil! Just that look on your face and that weird grin! I knew it!" As quick as his fingers could, the trigger was pulled and a bullet shot Wani's shoulder.


Not even a wince, the Crocodile man just stood there irritably. A faint clench of his fist around the wallet was enough to show his anger, however, all he did was simply chuck the wallet at the man's feet and growl. "Moron... I'm just handing you your wallet," his quiet, but grumbling voice, reached the stranger before he turned to head back the way he came.
