Dragon Sorcerer In One Piece

Chapter 48 - Five Minutes

"My arm!" Doflamingo screamed as his left arm fell from his left elbow. Immediately, he tries to use his String String fruit to reattach the left arm back to his body but Hades quickly cuts the strings and uses his dragon talisman to burn the arm into ash.

"You turn my arm into ash! Do you know what I'm capable of? Do you know what kind of powerful people I can influence and unleash on to you?" Doflamingo yelled with all his might and tried to attack Hades with his only remaining arm but it was pointless as Hades just swiped it away like a fly.

"You won't die from that, also I know all about your connection and people you associate it with, but you have to know one thing about me. I know half of your associates and they are part of my business. I made them rich and provided them with goods from all over the world. If you came to this island two months ago, maybe your trick might have worked, but as of now, one of the three powers of the World is on my side." Hades laughed as he remembered one thing about Doflamingo and his past.

Doflamingo is indeed an influential person in the One Piece world as he has various connections. With World Government as he was a former World Noble, with Navy as he is a member of Seven Warlords of the Sea and finally, with the underworld and the black market as he is the infamous broker as code name 'Joker'. Now, Hades has the opportunity to create a great impact on all three factions at once if he does this correctly.

"Hey, Doffy. I will spare your life and your crew if you help me with one thing." Hades said out loud to Doflamingo so everyone can hear what Hades is saying. There is a glimpse of hope from officers of Donquixote Pirates when they heard this, but the three senior officers knew there was a catch.

If rumors were true, Hades began to be known among others in the underworld for giving severe punishments to those who betray him or attack him directly or indirectly. Doflamingo knew of this as well but decided to ignore it as it was just a rumor and unbelievable as one single person can't accomplish all the deeds within half a year (Such as making a deal with all four Yonkos and taking over the entire underworld within a day).

"What do you want with me and my family?" Doflamingo asks Hades as sweat drips from his forehead. He started to regret his decision of attacking Gold Resort island but at the same time glad he left Suger back at Dressrosa. If she loses her life or faint, it will end all his plans to take over the country of his ancestor.

"Do not worry about it, I just want the world to know what will happen if anyone has a funny idea of attacking me." Hades then levitates Doflamingo using gravity prison and adds him to his collection. After securing the captain of Donquixote Pirates, Hades pulls out Red Den Den Mushi to contact Gild Tesoro.

"Gild Tesoro, Donquixote Pirates are taken care of, but I need to prepare a set for me. Make it grand and full of gold, so when the world sees it, they will know exactly who is giving them a performance of a lifetime." Hades gave his order and looked at his prisoners as he gave them an evil smile.

30 Minutes Later,

On the Golden Stage of Gold Resort Island,

"This is perfect! Nice job Gild Tesoro, I know you are the only one who can accomplish this in less than an hour. Now, notify all the emperors of the underworld and Yonkos for today's special. You know what, make it worldwide broadcast, I want the world to see and know it!" Hades then summons the army of Ninja Khans and gives them a hundred broadcasting Den Den Mushi which they disappear into shadow afterward.

"Now, let's get the show started!"

---------------------

Navy Headquarter,

The Ninja Khan appears from the shadow and planet the Den Den Mushi to start the projection on the giant white wall of the main building. After securing the Den Den Mushi, the Ninja Khans disappear into shadow before anyone could stop them.

---------------------

New World, Paradise, and all Blue Sea,

Ninja Khans appeared from the shadow and did the same thing as Ninja Khans at Navy Headquarters did. The places they appeared are heavily populated islands such as Hachinosu, Onigashima, Whole Cake Island, Loguetown, Kano Country, Drum Island, Jaya, Water 7, and other many locations all over the world.

All over the world (including Impel Down and his private prison island), people gather to see what is going on as broadcast Den Den Mushi turns itself on and shows a bright and beautiful stage made out of pure gold. Then, a man with a fancy white suit and a metal mask appears on the screen and introduces himself to start the show of the year.

---------------------

"Hello, world! Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Hades, the King of the Underworld and the master of death. I finally decided to step out of the shadow and into the light as I want to show the world what will happen to people who challenge me and my associates." Hades snaps his finger to uncurtain and reveals beaten Doflamingo on crucifixion on the center as the rest of the officers behind him on the much smaller crucifixion.

Doflamingo himself is crucified into a giant golden cross as his shoulders, feet, arms and right hand are impaled with gold spikes. On the other hand, his body, neck and legs are locked by the sea stone to restrain him from moving an inch or use his devil power. The rest of the Doflamingo's crews aren't impaled but locked with sea stone just like Doflamingo so they won't interfere with the show.

"This is Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and one who decided to attack my associate, Gild Tesoro, one of my Emperor of Underworld. Now, let the show begin!" Hades finishes his introduction and uses his levitation to levitate his sword, Rebellion, into the air. With quick swift, the sword flew toward Doflamingo and decapitated his legs and right arm, leaving his head and bloodied body in the cross.

"HAAAAAAAAA! I will f.u.c.k.i.n.g kill YOU!" Doflamingo screams pain and blood as he somehow remains alive even though he is bleeding nonstop.

"Scream all you want, Doffy. This show is just a beginning." Hades said to Doflamingo as he moved his hand and used his horse talisman to heal and regrow Doflamingo's missing limbs. Within a second, Doflamingo's arms and legs regrew instantly and healed his wounds.

The world shocked when they saw Hades's abilities and fear starts to grow among people's heart. They now know Hades can continue his torture as long as he can keep the person alive and heal the wound before the light disappears from the person's eyes.

"Oh, this could be a problem. Let's rebind and nail you. Gild Tesoro, if you don't mind." Hades said as he saw Doflamingo's regrown arms and legs are freely dangling without restraints. Gild Tesoro immediately binds and nails Doflamingo's arms and legs with gold right above the elbow and knees.

"Now, now, Doffy. Don't be too dramatic. I'm sure you did plenty of decapitation with your devil fruit power. Starting now, every 5 minutes I will repeat again and again until I break you. Not your body, but your mind and soul." Hades said out loud and the stage crew brought out a giant clock on the stage. The clock already has countdown started as it is now 4 minutes and 21 seconds.

"Now, that's more like it. I think I will cut each limb every 30 seconds from now on, kinda weird to wait for 4 minutes without entertainment." Hades said out loud on the stage as everyone's faces turned in horror. Soon, the countdown ended and a giant clock alarm went off in which Hades waved his hand, cutting Doflamingo's left arm and moving to the next limbs every 30 seconds. After Hades finishes his healing of Doflamingo, the countdown starts and the whole process repeats over and over again.

---------------------

Hades's POV

I knew Doflamingo could endure the physical pain (To a certain limit), but his mind is very fragile compared to his body as I recreated his childhood tragedy of crucifixion and humiliation. It will take half a dozen sets of decapitated limbs (Maybe), but eventually, Doflamingo will break and the world will get the message, Do Not F.u.c.k With Me.

Before the show started, I connected Doflamingo's and his crew's invisible lifelines using Mountain Demon's magic. Similar to blood transfusion, the crew's lifelines keep Doflamingo alive if he goes near death, so, in exchange to keep Doflamingo alive, one year of their natural life will be spent. I also increased Doflamingo's pain sensitivity to x 10, I prefer to end it quickly as possible so I can move to the development of artificial devil fruit. Ultimately, the longer Doflamingo endures, the shorter his crew's natural life will be.

'Now, show me how long former God/King can last. I expect it to be a spectacular show for everyone, especially for those World Nobles at the Mary Geoise. They know the Doflamingo's blood is World Noble even though he is no longer one of them. I hope they can feel a small peck of fear as they watch Doflamingo even if it's only for a second." Hades smiles behind his mask as he is sending different messages to everyone in the world, that is if they are smart enough to understand it.

---------------------

Three Hours Later,

Doflamingo stops screaming at 19th decapitation. Still, Hades saw a small fire within Doflamingo's eyes, so he continued until he no longer could see that fire. In the end, after three hours of torture, Doflamingo's eyes showed nothing but blank darkness as he experienced 36 sets of decapitation in total.

"Folks, it seems our time is over. I hope you enjoy the show and if you ever want to participate, please, Let Me Know." Hades said and signaled one of the crew to cut the signal which the Den Den Mushi closed its eyes. Hades immediately put Doflamingo and his crews to sleep using sheep talisman which was easy to do as they no longer have the energy to resist its effect.

"I want you guys to put them down from the stage and back on their ship. Make sure they remain shackled with sea stone and set sail toward Dressrosa. Oh, make sure you put the keys where they can find it." Hades instructs Gild Tesoro and his crew as he walks away from the stage.

"Are you sure Hades? Shouldn't we just kill them right now? I mean, they are no longer useful as you broadcast the whole thing to the world." Baccarat said to Hades as Gild Tesoro tried to stop her. Hearing this, Hades gave a small chuckle and explained to the lucky lady why he wanted the Donquixote family alive.

"I broke, no. I destroyed Doflamingo. I want him to live so he can fear me and live every moment of his life with that fear. When the time comes, I'll talk to him as he still has some use for us." Hades left the stage, leaving Gild Tesoro and his crew with the Donquixote family to take care of.

Hades's display to the world changed everything as the World Government and Navy went to full damage control, while Morgans unleashed the newspaper, each Yonkos reacted differently and officers of the Revolutionary Army were shocked by Hades's cruelty as they knew his true identity.

"Big bro, what happened to you? Is this the direction you want to go? For us?" The Revolutionary Army's Chief of Staff whispers to himself as Koala cries next to him.
