Chapter 21 : Dad, Stop!


" So, your Mihawks' daughter huh? I knew you were strong." He smirked, proud to know his soulmate was very capable.

You pointed at the shawl that was on a chair, wanting to cover yourself before continuing the conversation, " I'm not sure actually. I actually lost my memories recently, so I've just been doing things either on a whip or I follow my instincts."

Zoro went to grab onto your shawl and walked back to you to hand it to you, " But I remembered some things, like Luffy being my younger brother. Or that Daddy is a wine alcoholic. There are still a lot of things missing. So I want to find them first."

" That's what Rayleigh meant by you having other priorities. Luffy still wants you on our crew and I wouldn't mind it," He gently covered your shoulders with the shawl, surprising you that the brute can be a gentleman when he wants to.

As you and Zoro continued your conversation, the atmosphere suddenly shifted. The ground beneath you began to shake, and the ceiling above rattled ominously. Zoro instinctively pulled you into a protective embrace, shielding you from whatever disturbance was occurring.

The sound of clashing swords reached your ears, echoing through the air. With a shared curiosity, you and Zoro made your way to the window, peering outside. What you saw took you by surprise – the landscape had undergone a dramatic transformation. The once serene scenery was now marred by a fierce battle.

In the distance, your attention was drawn to two figures locked in combat. Your father, Dracula Mihawk, and your grandfather, Silver Rayleigh, were engaged in a duel. The contrast between them was stark – your father's demeanor was deadly serious, his aura radiating intensity, while your grandfather's smile remained as enigmatic as ever.

"Rayleigh!?" Zoro was shocked to see the man who was supposed to be at Sabaody Archipelago on your home island, engaging in this intense battle.

" Well..speak of the devil.." You mumbled.

Zoro's grip on you tightened, his eyes focused on the battle below. The clash of swords and the palpable tension in the air told a story of a profound conflict. You couldn't help but be drawn into the scene, torn between concern for your father and curiosity about the circumstances that had led to this confrontation.

"Why are they fighting?" you whispered, your voice tinged with worry.

Zoro's gaze remained fixed on the duel, his expression serious. "I don't know, but it seems serious. Your father... He's not holding back."

As you watched the battle unfold, a mixture of emotions welled up within you – concern for your father's safety, confusion about the situation, and a desire to understand the dynamics at play. The landscape around you may have changed, but the complexities of your world remained as intricate as ever.

The duel between Dracula Mihawk and Silver Rayleigh was a mesmerizing display of swordsmanship, and you couldn't tear your eyes away from it. The clash of their blades sent sparks flying, illuminating the battlefield in a dance of steel.

Mihawk, your father, was an imposing figure, his dark cape billowing like a shadowy cloak as he moved with lethal grace. His sword, Yoru, gleamed menacingly in the light as he expertly parried Rayleigh's attacks. The intensity of his crimson eyes never wavered, each movement calculated and precise.

Rayleigh, on the other hand, fought with a unique blend of casual elegance and profound skill. His grin remained firmly in place as he danced around Mihawk's strikes, his haki-infused swordplay effortlessly deflecting deadly blows. His legendary sword, the Dark King's Sword, emitted a faint aura of haki, a testament to his unparalleled strength.
