Schizophrenia

Chapter 6

"Captain, the cage is moving"

Phrenia raised her eyebrows watching as the birdcage slowly began to move. Nothing much happen other that some weird feathered hat man rescued the Demon Child Nico Robin and Trafalgar Law from getting killed by one of Doflamingo's attack.

The battle continued on in Ramport Tower which was getting one beating after another.

"This battle is dragging forever Captain" Danjil complained. "I want to go home. I beat the others are having much better fun."

As Danjil went on complaining more, Doflamingo came crushing towards the ground. Followed by a flying man.

"Is that Straw Hat!!!?"

Phrenia watched closely as Straw Hats appeared had total changed. No longer was a short and thin boy but a short, round boy with stem coming out of his body. Flying towards Doflamingo and punching him in the side of his facing, sending him crashing to some building again.

Doflamingo gets up with ease, flying towards Straw Hat. Ending up in a midair battle as both of them tried to get a blow to connect. And again Doflamingo is send crashing to the ground while the birdcage closed in even more.

"My people....can you hear me!! BZZ...BZZZ...I am the former king Of Dressrosa, King Riku III..."

"Where is coming from" Danjil asked looking around. "Riku who!!?"

"Let me explain what's happening, in the country to you...we're all stuck in a gigantic birdcage set up by Doflamingo......his idea of a escape game, as he says....and to make things worst, the birdcage is getting smaller and smaller and slicing everything in its way. Now we're left with this reality thrown to us...unable to make any real sense of it. While running for your lives.....let me tell you now, this is not a dream!!! And all that has happened today isn't a tragedy....!!! We have been under this pirate for 10 years!!! The whole time!! We were in a cage called Dressrosa!! Living puppets under his control for 10 long, long years!!! This is also reality!! But all this ends today!! The Donquioxe family which everyone thought of as invincible have fallen with the help of the brave warriors and is now close to destruction!! The top executive of the family are no more!! They only enemy left...is the current king of Dressrosa. And the one fighting him right now is Straw Hat Luffy!! I'm sure he'll also be the one that'll break this cage for us!!! Whether we win or lose, all will be decided in a matter of minutes. So please run and try to live!!! Don't push and run over each other....!! Keep running!!!!!! Even when you're out of breath or even if your legs are broken!!! Please live on!!!! There's always hope!!! Don't give up please!!'

"......." Danjil for once was at lost of words for a second. "That's one hell of a speech, Right Captain"

With the people of Dressrosa running, Straw Hat manages to smash Doflamingo again (😓😐). Already the people break into a cheer believing that the battle was over but to everyone surprise (except Phrenia and Danjil) the birdcage didn't not disappeared. Straw Hat goes for another attack but ends up falling to the ground. His body tired after being forced to its limit. Straw Hat down and Doflamingo slowly begins to pick himself up from the rubble.

Not much to her surprise, some of the colosseum fighters went after Straw Hat already offering him aid. Protecting him from Doflamingo and some strange buff man which was none of her concern since he ended up fighting Sabo who had intervene to save his brother.

Members of the Straw Hats, the dwarfs and other nobodies worked on pushing the cage back. To their luck, Fujitora came to their aid. Yet not much progress was made as the cage continued to get slower, slowly closing in.

"Right everybody!!! Just a little more patience!!! The star is reborn!!! Everybody have you forgotten" a voiced boomed throughout the kingdom.

Danjil grunted with tears already forming in his eyes. "Not another speech. Please not another one of those!"
