Chapter 3: Clash of Fate — Boby vs. Luffy and Zoro
Shells Town burned in the distance. Smoke curled into the crimson sky, painting the clouds with fire. Marines screamed and scattered, unable to comprehend the chaotic force that had descended upon their base.
And at the center of it all, stood three figures—locked in a deadly triangle of power.
Monkey D. Luffy, rubber-bodied and reckless, his straw hat tilting slightly with the wind.
Roronoa Zoro, swords drawn, his eyes sharp and feral like a beast unleashed.
And me—Boby, cloaked in black chains, eyes glowing with an unnatural light, my Creation System humming in bloodlust.
> "Darling, they're dangerous... should I erase them? Say the word~"
"No," I said coldly. "I want to test myself. Against the future Pirate King and his sword demon."
The wind shifted.
Then—
BOOM!
Luffy launched forward like a cannonball. "Gomu Gomu no Pistol!"
His fist expanded and whipped toward me like a snapping anchor. I raised my hand lazily. My Armament Haki flared, coating my palm in obsidian black.
CRACK!
Fist met palm. The impact kicked up a sonic boom that shattered nearby windows. I skidded back, boots grinding against the cracked earth.
"Whoa… You blocked that?" Luffy grinned, stretching his arms. "Cool!"
Zoro didn't wait.
In a flash, he vanished.
"Three-Sword Style: Oni Giri!"
Steel met chain.
I raised Warden's Embrace, the Chain Jail, just in time. Zoro's blades clanged against the glowing links, sparks flying.
But his strength… it was monstrous.
"You've got weird powers," he growled, leaping back, blades spinning. "But you bleed like anyone else."
I smirked, blood dripping from my lip. "Try and make me."
> "Husband… activating Phantom Inheritance~ Let's play."
Suddenly, my body glowed red. I activated Steal Chain, targeting Luffy. My chain shot out like a serpent and pierced his shadow.
> [Ability Temporarily Copied: Rubber Body]
My skin shifted—becoming rubbery, stretchable. For the next ten minutes, I was like Luffy… but with my Haki and system enhancements.
"Let's see how you like fighting yourself."
I vanished and reappeared in front of Luffy, mimicking his move—
"Gomu Gomu no Jet Whip!"
My kick, amplified by Haki and rubber speed, collided with his face, sending him tumbling across the battlefield like a ragdoll. He slammed into a wall, leaving a crater.
Zoro lunged again, his blades coated in Haki now.
"Tatsumaki—!" he roared.
A twisting cyclone of sword slashes tore through the air, aimed to rip me apart.
I activated Judgment Chain.
The spectral dagger tip burst from my heart, zipping toward him like a lightning strike.
It pierced his side—non-lethal, but painful. Chains wrapped around his chest.
"Obey me," I said, blood trickling from my nose. "Drop your blades."
Zoro growled, resisting. The chain trembled. Conqueror's Haki surged from both of us, clashing violently. The ground cracked beneath our feet.
> "I'll never bow to anyone who threatens my captain!"
> "His will… it's strong. You'll kill him if he resists, Husband."
"Then he dies," I said coldly, eyes flaring.
But then—
Luffy burst from the rubble, eyes wild with rage.
"Don't you DARE touch my crew!!"
His Conqueror's Haki exploded.
The sky split.
Reality screamed.
My chains shattered as Zoro collapsed, unconscious but breathing.
Luffy moved with terrifying speed.
"Gomu Gomu no Red Hawk!!"
Flames trailed his punch. The air ignited.
I activated Holy Chain, healing myself as I braced—
But it wasn't enough.
BOOOOOOM!
The explosion sent me flying. I smashed through walls, rubble burying me. My vision blurred. My ribs cracked.
But I was smiling.
That was power.
That was danger.
I dragged myself from the debris, laughing through blood.
> "This is the world of One Piece, huh?"
"Perfect."
> "Husband… do you want me to erase them now?"
"No. Not yet. They've earned their lives—for now."
I vanished into the shadows, chains coiling around me like living serpents.
This wasn't the end.
This was only the beginning.
