One Piece: Chaos Kong

Chapter 61: Official Frenzy Pirates

"Ho, don't get too ahead of yourself, Freyja; just because I'm exhausted doesn't mean I can't give you a good beating." Said Diddy with a grin while eyeing Freyja's abomination of an arm as she neared him.

"What makes you think I'm getting too ahead of myself? I just wanted to be a good Vice-Captain and assist my new crewmember." Replied Freyja while wickedly smirking as she lifted her large monstrous arm to her side, with the intention of punching Diddy.

"Umm, this isn't really necessary, is it? I'm sure there is a more verbal way to settle this." Asked Scar hesitantly as he stood to the side while watching the two seemingly about to go at it.

"It's totally necessary; how else am I supposed to be able to determine the strength of the person you fought? Besides, I'm much more of a hands-on learner." Replied Diddy with a grin as he dug the nails of his toes into the deck to give him more stability since he had a feeling Freyja would use more strength than necessary.

Once Freyja was ready, without hesitating even slightly, she punched me in the face, and while I could've easily blocked or evaded it, I didn't, mainly because I knew tanking her punch without so much as a scratch would annoy her, though it won't annoy her much considering she's still holding back.

The instant her morphed arm hit my face, I felt the force trying to send me flying through the air, but It was useless since I was latched onto the ship. The attack wasn't exactly weak nor strong; it was right in the middle, so other than managing to tilt my head slightly, it didn't do much damage, if any at all.

'Hmm, considering Freyja is definitely using slightly more strength than required, Bear-Man wasn't too weak; I suppose those three pass, barely though.' Mused Diddy with a thoughtful expression as he looked at Freyja once she retracted her arm from his face, only to click her tongue in annoyance.

"Can we try that again, Diddy? I think I didn't use the correct amount of strength." Remarked Freyja lightly as horns and a tail emerged from her body, increasing her strength even more, though Diddy wasn't a fool.

"Yeah, sure; that is if you can hit me." Replied Diddy with a smirk as he and Scar suddenly vanished from their spots, only for them to appear on the opposite side of the ship, though Scar was in Diddy's arms.

Eyeing Freyja from the complete other side of the ship, I smirked while watching her look at us as she grunted, her body returning to normal before she sat back down at the helm. Chuckling, I released my hold on Scar, who I was holding weirdly, but at the speeds, I could reach while using soru; if I didn't correctly grasp his head, he'd get whiplash and possibly die.

"W-What the? How'd I get over here? Wasn't I just standing beside the helm?" Questioned Scar in utter confusion as he looked around, only to notice Diddy standing adjacent to him.

"Heh, It's my Devil Fruit ability; it allows me to teleport between different places within my vision." Said Diddy with an amusing grin as he looked at Scar, who was astonished by such news.

"S-So you have eaten a Devil Fruit, Captain!" Remarked Scar in shock, though he quickly calmed down after giving it some thought.

"Well, that makes sense; how else could you be powerful enough to defeat Freyja and Father, two Devil Fruit users?" Added Scar while nodding as he looked at Diddy, though his words only served to irritate him.

"Tch, I haven't eaten a devil Fruit; I was merely joking; also, change that fucking mindset of yours; I don't want someone with such a weak mentality to sail aboard my ship; otherwise, I'll feed you to the Sea Kings." Stated Diddy as he growled in irritation, causing Scar to be taken aback.

"What do you mean, change my mentality, Captain? I'm not a man with a weak will if that's what you're implying." Said Scar in confusion as he frowned and furrowed his brows while looking at a Diddy who was on the verge of getting angry, causing him to take a few steps back.
