One Piece: Chaos Kong

Chapter 193: Mael's Confidence

"I must give them props for lasting that long against Captain, but are they still alive?" Asked Mael with an unsightly expression as he stood at the ship's edge, glancing at the unconscious Pandemonium floating in the ocean.

"They're still alive, though just barely; however, if nothing is done, they will die." Replied Sebas with a slight frown as he stood beside Mael while overlooking Pandemonium, who was grievously injured and was leaking gallons of blood every few seconds.

"Ugh, I had told Captain they're children; how can he still be so brutal." Said Trenza with a pitiful frown as she gazed at the duo sea kings before glancing at Diddy hovering in the air, just above Pandemonium.

"Eh, well, Captain has apparently wiped out two entire islands, so this is probably him being pretty nice." Remarked Grand with a wry expression as he rubbed his head while looking to his left, glancing at Trenza, who nodded while grumbling under her breath.

Looking down at the defeated and dying Pandemonium, I was decently impressed by their strength; they were stronger than your average sea king, and their defensive capabilities were astoundingly high since not only can the turtle hide inside its shell, but so can the snake. I had managed to break through their shell during the battle, but my goodness, it took a considerable amount of effort; the top of their shell now looked like the surface of the moon, littered with craters and pits.

'Heh, though, that was a decently satisfying fight; now, I just got to stop them from dying.' Mused Diddy with a feral grin while standing atop Nimbus as he hovered over the critically wounded Pandemonium.

Holstering Naga-sa onto my back, I leaped off Nimbus, causing it to quickly enter my body while I landed atop the unconscious Pandemonium, though, through my haki, I could tell their life force was dwindling, and quite quickly at that, they'll probably die in less than ten minutes if nothing is done.

"Heh, I'm quite glad I decided to master that technique rather than skipping over it; it's saved me a lot of trouble." Muttered Diddy with a smirk as he squatted down before resting his hand atop Pandemonium.

Focusing on Pandemonium's dwindling life force, I used the technique I've used on Freyja and Sebas in the past and began to transfer my highly abundant life force into them; within a few seconds, they already absorbed more life force than either Freyja or Sebas have combined, and yet, I still continued to pour my life force into them, as at this point, it was partially a test to see how much vitality did I truly have.

One minute passed, and by then, I had poured so much of my vitality into Pandemonium that they couldn't take anymore; they were overflowing from my life force. Removing my hand, I opened my eyes and stood, yet, other than a faint sense of weakness and exhaustion, I, otherwise, felt entirely fine, and I couldn't help but grin as I had finally got a rough idea of the extent of my seemingly boundless life force.

"Well, I knew I didn't have an infinite amount of vitality, but my goodness, I had just transferred enough to fill a sea king completely, and I still felt good. I could probably do that a few more times before the effects start to become really apparent, and even then, I'd still be able to do it some more." Said Diddy with an astonished expression as he clenched his fist before glancing at Pandemonium, who, despite still being grievously injured, looked much more lively than before.

Chuckling, I leaped off Pandemonium and landed on Nimbus as I floated back to my ship, which had just been replaced.

'Hmm, though, we'll need to build some stuff on the back of Pandemonium, but that's for later.' Mused Diddy lightly as he glanced behind him before leaping off Nimbus and landing on the deck of his ship, only to be given an annoyed look by Trenza.
