Chapter 344: Mucus Hell!

Following the massive pit Luffy had just punched through, fierce winds mixed with rubble continuously poured down toward the bottom.

Rebecca and Kyros followed closely behind the Straw Hat crew and leapt down.

As soon as they landed, the pungent smell of chemical agents hit them in the face.

"You pests, get out of my way!"

Zoro's eyes were as sharp as knives, his hands brandishing his snow-white famous blades.

Accompanied by several sharp, peerless blue slashes tearing through the air, the sword intent sliced through several massive SMILE fruit artificial cultivation tanks in the factory like they were tofu, shattering them instantly.

Green chemical nutrient fluid mixed with broken glass spilled everywhere, leaving the scene in a complete mess.

On the other side, Sanji's kicking techniques erupted within the dense crowd.

His legs turned into afterimages; every kick was accompanied by the dull thud of bone hitting flesh.

He sent a group of guards armed with heavy weapons flying like sandbags, slamming them hard against the solid steel walls.

In this chaotic battlefield, Rebecca did not back down either.

Holding her blunt, edgeless sword, her body moved as flexibly as a butterfly fluttering through flowers, performing her signature "Backwater Sword Dance."

She precisely avoided the enemies' sharp edges, using clever parries to deflect the weapons of those trying to surround her one by one.

Meanwhile, the one-legged soldier Kyros completely ignored the fragility and small stature of his toy body.

He stood like an indestructible, fearless shield, firmly blocking the way in front of Rebecca.

Facing the vicious guards who tried to ambush his daughter from the shadows, he raised his toy flintlock and fired continuously, combining it with sharp kicks to repel the attackers.

While the main force was frantically drawing fire at the front, Robin maintained an elegant composure in the rear.

She crossed her hands gently over her chest, instantly activating the power of the Hana Hana no Mi.

Countless slender arms bloomed out of thin air around the laborers.

Working with the agile Tontatta Tribe warriors, they moved with dazzling speed to quickly unlock the heavy steel shackles on the hands and feet of their compatriots who had been forced to work day and night.

"SUPER—! Let me show you my art!"

Franky roared, his massive steel body aiming directly at the factory's largest SMILE fruit conveyor belt.

The heavy cannons on his shoulders ejected simultaneously, and with a deafening roar, dense gunfire poured down like a meteor shower.

Explosions rang out one after another, and the sturdy mechanical equipment was turned into twisted scrap metal under the bombardment.

Watching his painstakingly managed territory being smashed to pieces by these uninvited guests,

Trebol trembled with rage, the mucus on his body boiling violently like scalding water.

"You bunch of ignorant pirates!"

"Do you really think our Donquixote Family is to be trifled with?!"

With a furious roar, Trebol suddenly activated his Beta Beta no Mi powers.

A large amount of extremely sticky mucus chains instantly whipped out from his wide sleeves.

This overwhelming mucus was not only incredibly tough but also possessed a despair-inducing adhesiveness.

Even Zoro's indestructible, sharp slashes felt like they were hacking heavily into a bottomless swamp when they hit the thick mucus, all their force instantly dissipated.

Trebol's bloodshot gaze swept through the chaotic crowd, accurately locking onto Usopp, who was hiding at the very back of the group taking potshots.

He roared through gritted teeth:

"It's you, you Long-nose bastard! You just broke my private Den Den Mushi! Get over here!"

As soon as he spoke, a thick mucus tentacle shot out like a venomous snake leaving its burrow, moving at a speed nearly impossible for the naked eye to track.

Usopp didn't even have time to cry out before the mucus tightly wrapped around his ankle.

"Waaaaah! Help!"

"Luffy!"

With an irresistible, massive force, Usopp was suddenly yanked into the air upside down, struggling desperately within the mucus's binding.

Seeing the "Great Hero" they revered as a god captured, the Tontatta warriors who had just been rescued were instantly filled with terror.

They pointed at the little girl in the center of the control room and shouted a warning to everyone:

"Great King Uso-land!"

"Everyone, be extremely careful of that little girl who's been eating grapes!"

"She is the source of all the tragedy in this country!"

"As long as her hand touches your skin, anyone will instantly turn into a defenseless toy!"

Hearing this warning, Sugar, who had been sitting expressionless in her large chair watching the show, slowly stood up.

Wearing her polka-dot bear cape, she took two steps forward with a seemingly delicate gait.

She looked up at the screaming and struggling Usopp, a malicious glint flashing in her eyes.

"What noisy trash."

"Since you death-seeking fools destroyed the Young Master's important factory,"

"I will personally turn you into a hideous toy and make you do the lowliest hard labor here for the rest of your life until you completely break down!"

At this critical moment of life and death,

Because Usopp was hanging upside down and struggling violently, the pocket that was originally filled with various strange props suddenly loosened.

Rumble, tumble...

A seemingly ordinary purple grape fell out of his pocket.

This was originally a top-secret prop carefully prepared by the Tontatta Tribe for this uprising to sabotage Sugar.

Inside this flawless-looking grape, the world's most terrifying seasoning had been injected—the "Special Tatababasco."

Now, by a twist of fate, this fatal Spicy Grape rolled exactly to Sugar's feet.

Sugar looked down at the plump grape by her feet, then bent over to pick it up.

She walked over to Usopp, who was hanging upside down and unable to move, and forced his mouth open with a powerful squeeze.

Then, she forcibly stuffed the special Spicy Grape into Usopp's mouth:

"Since you like screaming so much, eat a grape and shut up."

"Next, it's time to become a toy."

However, the moment that grape was bitten open,

An intense spiciness that completely surpassed the limits of human taste exploded in Usopp's mouth like a nuclear bomb!

That feeling could no longer be described as simple "spiciness"; it was an ultimate agony, as if his soul were being scorched by a raging fire!

Under this inhuman pain and most primal instinctive stimulation, Usopp's bodily functions completely spiraled out of control.

His eyes, which were already large, suddenly bulged outward at this moment, nearly popping out of their sockets.

The whites of his eyes were instantly covered in dense, terrifying bloodshot veins like a spiderweb.

His tongue lolled uncontrollably out of his mouth, rolling up and down violently like waves in a wind.

The muscles of his entire face shifted bizarrely under the extreme stimulation,

Turning into a terrifying expression that would make even the demons of hell feel their skin crawl!

"AAAAAAAGHHHHHH—!!!"

Accompanied by a shrill, inhuman scream to the extreme,

A scorching, physical pillar of fire erupted directly from his mouth.

And the defenseless Sugar was hit full-on by the impact of Usopp's face, which had broken through the limits of human physiology.

In that instant, Sugar's eternally cold little face went blank.

"Eeeeeeyaaaaahhhhh—!!!"

Sugar let out a tragic, blood-curdling scream.

Her small body jerked backward, her eyes rolled completely white, and a large amount of foam spewed from the corners of her mouth.

In extreme fright and mental collapse, she fell straight back and fainted on the spot.

As the ability user Sugar lost consciousness, the malicious magic of the "Hobi Hobi no Mi" that had shrouded Dressrosa for ten long years vanished in an instant!

A miracle finally happened on this land of despair!

In this dark underground factory,

In the boiling Corrida Colosseum above,

In every street of the town, every house, and even spreading to every corner of the entire island of Dressrosa,

Thousands of toys of all shapes and sizes, forced to work or serve as playthings,

All at once, a burst of dazzling white light erupted from the surface of their bodies.

Amidst the flashing light, accompanied by a series of dull sounds of relief,

Their sealed bodies rapidly grew, shedding their disguises of wood and cotton, returning to their original human forms.

In the underground factory, Rebecca, standing at the center of the storm, widened her eyes in shock and covered her mouth.

Under her gaze, the one-legged clockwork soldier who had always been blocking her path suddenly erupted with the most brilliant light.

That small toy body began to rapidly elongate.

With a dreamlike shift of light and shadow, the ridiculous toy disappeared.

In its place was a tall, burly human tough guy with knotted muscles and a bright red cape!

Although he still lacked a left leg, his aura, which had weathered many storms yet remained majestic, was like an immovable mountain.

He was the legendary undefeated gladiator of this country, Kyros.

The moment the light shone, the precious memories forcibly erased by the Devil Fruit flooded back into the depths of Rebecca's mind.

The once warm scenes, the back that had stood in front of her countless times, that deep and wordless love...

Everything was clearly pieced back together.

"It was... it was you..."

"It was always you... Father..."

The blunt sword in Rebecca's hand fell to the ground with a clang.

Tears streamed down her face, her vision completely blurred, and at this moment she wept uncontrollably as all her grievances and longing finally erupted.

"You finally remembered, Rebecca."

Kyros stood there, looking at his now-grown daughter.

On that weather-beaten and weary face, hot tears that had been held back for ten whole years finally flowed.

He stepped forward and pulled his sobbing daughter into a tight, wide embrace.

"Don't be afraid... Father... is back."

At the same time, under the radiance, a wave of miracles swept across the entire nation.

The memories that had been forcibly erased flooded back into the minds of all the citizens like a dam breaking, unstoppable.

In the streets and alleys, people looked blankly at the humans who had suddenly appeared beside them, tears falling involuntarily.

"I remember now... that person was my husband!"

"Mama! You finally changed back! I missed you so much!"

"So our country has been deceived by such false lies all along!"

With the full return of all memories,

The ultimate pain suppressed for ten whole years, the endless indignation of being treated like a plaything at will,

And the towering rage toward the Donquixote Family's tyrannical rule were completely ignited at this moment.
