One Piece: Chaos Kong

Chapter 190: CopyCat

Following Trenza's gaze, I looked at the snake and turtle duo, who kept looking at me with reverence, causing me to tilt my head in confusion.

"What's up with them?" Muttered Diddy in confusion as he observed the snake and turtle duo, who copied his action and tilted their heads.

"I don't know; I had passed out midway through; I figured you'd know, Captain." Remarked Trenza in confusion as she looked at the sea king duo before carefully standing up.

Standing up as well, just as I did so, I spotted the snake stretch its body into the sky, which filled me with even more confusion since I had no idea what it was doing. Shaking my head, I ignored them and reached down toward Nimbus, grabbing Naga-sa, yet when I did so, I heard a loud splash, prompting me to glance up at the two sea kings and saw the turtle remove its fin, flipper, leg, or whatever they're called, from the ocean before patting it's shell.

Frowning, I glanced at my back, looking at my hand, which was holding onto Naga-sa, before I glanced back at the turtle.

"Captain, I-I think they're copying you." Said Trenza hesitantly as she glanced between the duo sea king and Diddy, who removed his hand from his bo-staff, prompting the turtle to place its fin back into the ocean.

"Yeah, I just figured that out." Remarked Diddy with a perplexed expression as he intently eyed the two sea kings while raising his arms into the air.

Just a Trenza and I theorized the sea kings were indeed copying me as we watched the turtle raise both of its front flippers into the air before placing them back into the water when I lowered my arms. Faintly smirking, I twisted my upper body a complete three-hundred and sixty degrees, which wasn't something I generally liked doing since I was required to dislocate parts of my spine, which risked injuring my nervous system, however, now that I had full control of my body down to my very tissue, it was of minimal concern. Looking at the duo sea kings, I watched how the snake sitting atop the turtle's body copied precisely what I did and twisted its large body until it looked at us again.

"They really are copying you; what happened between you three when I was passed out?" Asked Trenza in slight surprise as she looked at the two sea kings before glancing at Diddy, who shrugged his shoulders while his body returned to normal, prompting the snake to do so as well.

"Well, after I defeated the salamander sea king attacking them, I blasted with my haki, the same one I used on you, Grand, and Scar when you tried sneaking on my ship, and then this happened." Replied Diddy lightly while glancing at Trenza before suddenly grinning as he raised his hand and grabbed her by her nape, lifting her slightly in the air.

I was curious how the sea kings would copy this, but it didn't take them long to figure out a solution as the snake lowered its body, prompting the turtle to wrap its flipper around the snake's neck while holding it in the air.

"Can you set me down now, Captain? This isn't exactly the greatest feeling." Asked Trenza with a slightly pained expression as she looked at Diddy, who released her, causing her to land upon Nimbus while rubbing the back of her neck in relief.

Deciding to do one last test, I took a deep breath before looking to the sky and roaring with all of my might, my voice resounding throughout the calm ocean for quite some distance; once I finished, I cleared my throat and looked at the two sea kings, who also took a deep breath loudly roaring.

"ROOOOOOAAAARRRR!!!!" Yelled the turtle and snake, their loud roars making Diddy's roar sound like a child's whimper while the very ocean rippled from their voice.

"Hehe, that's loud; I think it might've ruptured my ear drums." Remarked Diddy with a feral grin as he rubbed his ear in slight pain before glancing at Trenza, who was blankly looking around.
