"Okay, so he's Sanji's father; that's cool and all, but more importantly, why the hell is he and his family on Pandemonium? We've got no use for them other than to maybe serve as punching bags since they don't seem sensitive to pain." Asked Diddy curiously as he glanced at Sebas while looking at the Vinsmoke family, who were all currently bound by chains.
"I don't know, Captain; Trenza, Grand, Scar, Chala, and Freyja brought them on their own accord; I was merely informing you of who they were." Replied Sebas lightly as he sat back down and sipped his tea while gesturing to Freyja, who was casually eating.
"Don't give me that, look, Diddy; I found them interesting; the fact they couldn't feel any pain and how they could put up a pretty decent fight despite having no haki kind of made that clear." Remarked Freyja lightly as she glanced at Diddy and Sebas while gracefully eating like a proper noblewoman, etiquette she had never forgotten.
Clicking my tongue, I ignored Freyja and shifted my focus to the Vinsmoke family, and I had to agree with her; it did somewhat interest me how they could fight against my crew without using haki.
"Yeah, you're not wrong; they're interesting, but I don't like him; he's such a coward, I can smell it reeking off him." Said Diddy blandly as he stood up and pointed at Judge with his tail, who had been trying his damndest to suppress his ever-growing fear.
"Hoho, that is true; unlike his children, who have a rather worrisome lack of emotion, Judge is quite the coward." "Heh, that's probably why his haki is so lackluster." Remarked Sebas and Freyja, respectively, as they glanced at Judge, whose expression morphed into anger, prompting him to break the chains binding him.
"Oh, look what we've got here; the coward is about to make a move; quite smart, you're much more likely to be killed if Diddy deems you a coward." Said Freyja mockingly with a faint chuckle as she watched Judge grab his spear before thrusting it at Diddy's back, causing his anger-filled expression to be filled with terror once again.
Glancing behind me at Judge, I looked down at the spear that was barely able to pierce my skin before looking back at him, causing him to drop to the ground while cowering in fear.
"I-I'm s-sr-" Said Judge apologetically as he looked at Diddy, yet before he could finish speaking, his face was grabbed and slammed into the ground.
"Utter another word, and I'm crushing your skull." Said Diddy blandly as he glanced at Judge while squeezing his head with his feet, causing him to loudly grunt in pain.
While squeezing Judge's head, I glanced at his children, yet, other than the girl, who seemed to show some emotion, the three others hardly cared about their father's predicament; even with my haki, I could tell they held very little emotions.
'No wonder they don't have haki; with such little will, it'll be next to impossible to acquire haki.' Mused Diddy lightly as he glanced at the four children before reaching forward and grabbing the green-haired one.
"Oi, let me go, bastard." Stated the green-haired man as he broke the chains and punched Diddy, using his suit to enhance his attacks, yet it hardly even phased him.
While I was sniffing the man, his two other brothers joined in and attacked me; though it wasn't to help their brother, I could tell they were merely doing it because their lives were on the line; the only one who was smart enough to not make a move was the girl.
"Hoho, despite their father being a member of MADS, it seems his intelligence didn't carry over. to his offspring." Said Sebas in amusement as he glanced at the three Vinsmoke brothers brutally attacking Diddy, who seemed entirely unbothered by it.
"What is MADS anyways?" Asked Freyja curiously as she glanced at Sebas, prompting the two to have the most intellectual conversation on Pandemonium.
Once I finished sniffing the green-haired man, I dropped him to the ground while recounting the scents I had smelled off his body.
The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
'It reminds me of an auto shop. Is he a robot like those PXs, whatever they're called? No, they have no wills; these four have wills, and they're just minuscule by comparison. Ahh, maybe they're cyborgs?' Thought Diddy with a thoughtful expression as he rubbed his chin, glancing between the blue, green, and red-haired brothers.
"Hmm, you guys are getting annoying." Muttered Diddy blandly as he reached forth and grabbed the red-haired man by the neck, and before everyone's eyes, he suddenly crushed his neck.
To my surprise, the man, who I thought I'd just killed, suddenly punched me in the face, taking me by surprise as I dropped him on the ground, only to see his broken neck heal itself.
"Now that's even more freaky when I turn my head around." Said Diddy quietly as he glanced at the red-haired man, yet before he could stand back up, his head suddenly dropped onto the ground while his neck sped copious amounts of blood.
"N-No! M-My creation!" Yelled Judge with sadness as he gazed at his son while his two others glanced at each other before dashing away, yet they didn't make it far.
"Where do you think you two are going?" Remarked Diddy with a raised eyebrow as he outstretched his arm, stopping them from moving with his phenomenal armament haki, his invisible armor extending for tens of meters around his body.
Before they could say anything, I used my haki to destroy them from the inside out, causing them to go limp while they bled from their orifices; dropping them to the ground, I glanced at Judge and was about to kill him as he did speak again, but before I did, Sebas stopped me.
"Ho, slow down there, Captain; Judge may be a coward, but he's incredibly intelligent; he's far more usefully alive." Said Sebas softly as he stopped Diddy from crushing Judge's head while he nodded in agreement, causing him to scoff.
"Fine, whatever; keep him as a slave or something." Replied Diddy blandly as he tossed Judge toward Sebas, who caught him in his mind while faintly smiling.
"Oh, don't worry; he'll be put to good use." Said Sebas with a faint smile as he stood up and exited the lounge, Judge floating right behind him while his eyes took on a foggy look as his ego was slowly being destroyed.
"So, what are we doing with her?" Asked Freyja curiously as she glanced at the woman, who sported a slightly sad expression, but other than that, she didn't seem to care.
Looking at the woman, I was about to just kick her off Pandemonium; she didn't really bother me or anything, so I wasn't about to kill her, but after giving it a second thought, an idea came to mind.
"Let's keep her around; she's Sanji's sister, right? Knowing that women-loving fool, he'll recklessly attack us to save his sister." Remarked Diddy with a faint smirk, his words causing Freyja to raise an eyebrow before nodding.
"You're not wrong. Welp, welcome aboard Pandemonium; don't die." Replied Freyja lightly as she glanced at the woman, blowing her a kiss before standing up and exiting the lounge, leaving her with Diddy.
"Huh, what the hell did I miss?" Asked Mael with a slight frown as he entered the lounge, only to see three corpses, a woman and Diddy.
"Eh, nothing interesting; just a bunch of weirdo's. Anyway, I'm going to train." Replied Diddy blandly as he ignored the corpses while leaving the room, causing Mael and the woman to quietly stare at each other.
"Were those your brothers?" Asked Mael curiously as he glanced at the woman and pointed at the three corpses, which all looked somewhat familiar.
"Yes." Replied the woman with a nod, her words causing Mael to quietly nod while three wisps of plasma landed atop the corpses, engulfing them in flames that burnt them to ashes.

"Captain! Mony said we're close to Wano!" Yelled Trenza, her loud voice drowning out amidst the torrential downpour and the aggressive waves.
Nodding at Trenza, I remained resting in my hammock while Mony dealt with the terrible weather, which was nothing she hadn't encountered before, so despite the bumpy ride, everything was rather smooth. Well, it was smooth until we suddenly started swimming upwards at a ninety-degree angle, causing several unlucky pirates to fall into the ocean below.
"A warning would've been nice, Mony!" Yelled Janet in annoyance as she stood on the fortress wall while eyeing Mony, who roared back, overpowering the deafening thunderstorm.
Once Mony finally finished swimming up the waterfall, we arrived on somewhat calm water, only for her to nearly get caught in a massive whirlpool; nearly an hour later, we finally arrived near the shore of an Island, which I could only assume is Wano.
'Yeah, this is definitely Wano; look at those those samurais.' Mused Diddy lightly as his massive observation haki engulfed Wano, allowing him to view everything he desired.
Hopping off my hammock, I stretched my body slightly and grabbed Naga-sa before heading towards the shore, where Grand, Scar, and Chala were already waiting for us.
"So, this is Wano?" "Looks like shit." "Yeah, it sure does." Said Scar, Chala, and Grand, respectively, as they observed their surroundings, seeing nothing but an expansive desert.
"Well, Kaido has been in charge of Wano for nearly two decades and used it as a factory to mass produce weapons; it's no surprise this place has turned for the worst." Remarked Sebas lightly as he landed on the ground beside the three, prompting them all to nod with slightly widened eyes.
