As I yanked her to me, she shot a few more iron rods from her body, yet I easily blocked them by using her own iron rod that I held; once she got near me, I let go of the iron rod before reaching forward and grabbing her by the neck.
"D-Do, you know what crime you've just committed? The Marines nor the World Government will forget about you; they'll chase after you until you're either dead or captured!" Said Hina as she tried freeing herself by attacking Diddy, but even up close, he was far too slippery.
"Hehe, in all honesty, no; I've got no idea how serious of a crime killing royalty affiliated with World Government is, but I imagine it should be a decently severe crime." Said Diddy with a grin as he squeezed Hina's neck, choking her, while Freyja and Sebas both sighed at his response.
"P-Pirates l-like you are r-reasons why j-justice exists! E-Even if Hina will d-die, I-I'll at least t-take you with me!" Yelled Hina with difficulty while her entire body morphed into hundreds of iron rods as she surrounded Diddy's body until there was nothing but an iron cocoon.
Feeling myself being constricted slowly like prey caught by a snake, I couldn't help but chuckle at her last-ditch effort since, while it was somewhat strong, it was utterly useless against me; after all, iron and lightning are very compatible, or in this case, the opposite. Smirking, I summoned forth the lighting that resided inside my heart before releasing it without restraint, almost like an EMP blast, causing Hina to emit a loud scream of agony before the iron cocoon that surrounded me disappeared, leaving behind an unconscious and smoking Hina lying on the ground.
"Tch, great, now I'm going to have to fix my hair; thanks, stupid Captain." Remarked Freyja with a frown of annoyance while looking at Diddy as she tried fixing her long hair standing on end.
"Yes, now I look rather foolish, which isn't befitting of my elegant stature." Said Sebas with a sigh as his beard and hair also stood on end from the electric explosion released by Diddy.
"Luckily, I was far enough away." Muttered Janet as she peeked behind a broken pillar that had protected her against the electricity.
"Heh, well, hurry and fix your hair; we're about to take a crew picture!" Stated Diddy with a smirk as he reached down to Hina and sliced off a rather long iron rod before slicing it again into several different pieces.
Grabbing the several pieces, I started craving the ends of it with my nails into a somewhat pointed tip, which only took a few minutes; the tips didn't need to be super sharp or anything; after all, they only needed to hold a head. Once I finished, I stabbed the eight decapitated heads onto the iron rods before placing them behind me into a half-circle, signaling Sebas to place the floating heads onto each improvised pike; I backed away to get a good look.
'Hmm, yep, that should be good; now for the last part. The flags.' Mused Diddy with a grin as he looked up toward the ceiling.
Jumping into the air, I propelled myself through the broken ceiling and continued doing so until I arrived at the highest point of the palace, where two rather large flags were swaying in the wind. The bottom flag had a symbol of a red circle surrounded by a hollow circle, with four red triangles pointing in the four cardinal directions on the white flag; the top flag was also white and had five blue circles in the cardinal directions with one in the middle while the words World Govt, were printed at the bottom. They were the flags of the Briss Kingdom and World Government, respectively.
Gripping the pole, I ripped it off the palace's roof before returning to the throne room, only to see Janet already preparing to take a picture.
"Hehe, alright, Freyja and Sebas; everything is ready; time for the picture!" Declared Diddy with a smirk as he sat on the ground just before the half-circle of heads.
"Hoho, it's time already? I must look presentable; it's been a few decades since my last official photo." Remarked Sebas as he approached Diddy while fixing himself.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Well, thanks to a certain someone, this is as good as my hair will get." Said Freyja while scoffing as she neared Diddy before standing behind him, right beside Sebas.
Seeing how everyone was ready, I cut a piece of the flag pole off to make it shorter before holding it in my mouth while unholstering Naga-sa, letting it rest on my shoulder; Freyja and Sebas also did their own little pose. Freyja stood in a way that accentuated her heavenly curves while blowing a kiss, causing her to look even sexier than usual; Sebas, on the other hand, looked pretty much the same as his bounty poster, but he was also floating Hina's unconscious body in the air, causing me to smile at his thought process.
"Heh, you're a quick learner Sebas. Now then, Janet, take a picture of us." Stated Diddy with a smirk as he channeled lighting through the flag pole, setting the Birss Kingdom and WG flags on fire.
"Alright, on the count of three, say, um, frenzy?" Said Janet awkwardly while scratching her head as she held the transponder snail, pointing at Diddy, Freyja, Sebas, the unconscious Hina, the several heads, and the damaged ship behind them.
"One…Two…Three!" Yelled Janet as she took a picture of the sexy Freyja, the elegant Sebas, and the feral Diddy, who was holding two burning flags in his mouth.

Several days later, somewhere in Paradise Sea, just before the grand line, far from Briss Kingdom, was the marine headquarters, also known as Marineford, the first line of defense for Mary Geoise. A conversation between two of the most influential marines was taking place at the topmost floor of Marineford, inside the fleet Admiral command room.

"Ugh, come on, Garp! First, it was your son, and now even your grandson has begun to create a stir! Don't you have anything to say!?" Yelled Fleet Admiral Sengoku from behind the desk as he angrily looked at Monkey D. Garp while slamming down a wanted poster for a man named Monkey D. Luffy worth 30,000,000 Beri's.
"Nope; Hahaha." Replied Garp seriously as he looked at Luffy's bounty before erupting into laughter while stuffing his face full of crackers.
"Haa, why do I even bother?" Muttered Sengoku with a sigh of exhaustion as he plopped back onto his seat.
"Anyways, we'll discuss your family problems later, but have you heard the news? A newly formed pirate group in the South Blue raided Briss Kingdom, and not only did they succeed, but they also killed the royal family." Added Sengoku solemnly as he pushed forward the newspaper, with the front page being a picture of the Frenzy Pirates.
"Huh, I didn't know that; you're telling me three people in the south blue raided a Kingdom- isn't that Rear Admiral Hina in the background?" Remarked Garp as he picked up the newspaper and examined it before noticing Hina in the background, completely ignoring the two burning flags.
"Yes, that is her; she was beaten rather badly; however, thankfully, some marines arrived not too long later, and she was given first aid before arriving at a nearby marine base for proper treatment." Replied Sengoku with a frown as he glanced at the picture.
"Heh, well, they must be some decent pirates if the three of them managed to defeat her; she isn't your average Joe, after all." Said Garp with a nod as he continued reading the newspaper, only to be slightly taken aback by Sengoku's words.
"That's part of the problem, Garp. After Hina recounted the details of the events, she wasn't defeated by all three of them; the woman, who goes by Freyja, also known as the most Beautiful Woman in the world, is the one she was defeated by, and without much difficulty either." Stated Sengoku solemnly, though as he was speaking with Garp, a serious conversation hardly happened.
"Hmm? I guess the change was rather quick, but she is definitely more beautiful than Boa Hancock." Muttered Garp lightly while munching on crackers, his words irritating Sengoku.
"Garp! Will you take this seriously!? The only reason I brought this up was that the group's Captain is holding a burning flag of the World Government; to make matters worse, his name is Diddy D. Kong!" Yelled Sengoku as he again slammed his desk while eying Garp.
"Oh, now that you mention it, I can see that; first, it was THAT man, then Fisher Tiger, and now it's this boy. Hahaha, the WG got their plates full, don't they?" Remarked Garp with laughter, which only served to infuriate Sengoku, though as he was someone who had dealt with his personality for several decades, he didn't blow a fuse.
"Why do you think I called you!? The WG is practically breathing down my neck to capture those pirates!" Exclaimed Sengoku.
"Hmm, that's why you suddenly urged me to come here; I refuse. Besides, I'm already busy; I've got a few disciples to train." Said Garp with a slight frown as he shook his head and stood up.
"You're the only free Vice-Admiral, Garp! If nothing is done soon, the World Government will act on their own accord, and you know what happens whenever they do that." Stated Sengoku angrily as he also stood up.
"Eh, that doesn't sound like my problem; besides, I've run out of crackers. I'll see you later, Sengoku." Replied Garp as he dismissed Sengoku's words and exited the office.
