One Piece: Lord of Calamity

A VIP arrived in the City of Night, immediately stealing everyone's thunder. Upon entering, he tossed a bag of gold, booking all the most beautiful courtesans in the city. The 'Bodhisattvas' (euphemism for courtesans) of the city whispered that he was a very young, handsome boy with two bodyguards, wondering if he could handle them all.

However, this greatly displeased the 'philanthropists' who came to 'aid' the scantily clad ladies. They were all there for charity, so why was he so arrogant? In this chaotic New World, those who ventured to this island to 'help the needy' naturally had some skills, and usually, their temperaments weren't the best. Thus, many 'philanthropists' chose to personally confront the arrogant brat and teach him a lesson, showing him what 'equal distribution of grace' meant!

But, at this moment, on the top floor of this City of Night.

"Scram!" Barrett punched a burly man, sending him flying directly through the railing and plummeting downwards with a scream. The people who had come to cause trouble or watch the spectacle immediately recoiled in terror. The man who was just sent flying had an eight-million-Belly bounty!

"Those who don't want to die, get lost!" Barrett snorted, standing at the door with his arms crossed, like a guardian deity.

Beyond the door was a very spacious room, with exquisite decorations and furnishings. Opposite the door was a wide balcony, from which one could easily see the high-hanging moon. Roa leisurely leaned in the embrace of a large, beautiful mink tribe tiger woman, while a mermaid knelt at his feet, placing his legs on her long tail, her slender fingers gently massaging Roa's legs. To his side was a geisha-style courtesan from Wano Country, playing the shamisen, her kimono incredibly luxurious, made of silk with gold thread embroidery. And on the stage in front, a scantily clad 'golden cat' dancer gracefully swayed to the music.

As expected of a golden cat, she's golden everywhere.

"This is a bit too inappropriate for children," Roa muttered to himself. Where would a bright and cheerful young boy have seen this?

"This is just the beginning," the tiger woman leaned down, gently licking Roa's neck. Roa was most familiar with a tiger's tongue; it had slight barbs, giving a tingling sensation. More importantly, the Mink Tribe had an inherent ability.

"Whoa!" Roa shivered. She's using Electro! Quite a move! Indeed, quite a move! His reaction made the older women exchange knowing smiles. Who doesn't like a handsome, wealthy, and pure young man?

The mermaid's hand slowly crept upwards. But Roa reached out and grabbed her.

"Only this far, no further," Roa said with a serious expression. Please respect the laws protecting minors.

The older women all chuckled charmingly. A shy child was even cuter.

"Then, how about something to eat?" The mermaid woman, her eyes like silken threads, picked up a grape with her lips and offered it to Roa.

The righteous Roa, however, simply waved his hand. "I'm already eating." In a place like this, it would be strange if there were no 'dark aura.' Even these courtesans were emitting faint traces of it. Overall, while nowhere near the purity of the Land of Endless War, it was still decent.

The women were puzzled.

"Alright, let's talk business," Roa stretched. "Which of you will go and call Aunt Stussy for me?"

"You wish to see Lady Stussy, guest?" The courtesan smiled. "I'm afraid Lady Stussy never receives guests."

"Ah?" Roa pushed up his glasses. "Not even for an old friend?"

"Everyone who wishes to see Lady Stussy says the same thing," the tiger woman said, embracing Roa with a smile.

"Well, there's nothing for it then," Roa clicked his tongue. "Never mind, I'll say hello myself." He grabbed his beloved sword resting beside him with his left hand, and his thumb gently pushed the tsuba, revealing a segment of crimson blade.

The next instant, crimson lightning leaped from the blade. Conqueror's Haki mixed with bloodlust, forming an entirely new kind of intimidating aura. The courtesans serving Roa immediately showed expressions of extreme terror, then fainted and fell heavily to the ground.

The entire City of Night trembled, as red lightning pierced the roof and splattered wildly. A terrifying aura swept through everything. Both the generous philanthropists and the scantily clad ladies felt an incomparable fear at that moment. It was like having Death's scythe held to their throats, the breath of death so close. Fear surged from the deepest parts of their hearts, utterly uncontrollable. The people in the City of Night fell like harvested wheat, row after row. The few who could still maintain consciousness immediately fled in disarray like wild dogs. What a joke! This level of Conqueror's Haki! A monster has arrived!

In the true uppermost floor of the City of Night, in the room above the attic. The beautiful woman leisurely painting her fingernails suddenly changed her expression, leaving a mark on her finger. She felt the sudden terrifying aura!

"Conqueror's Haki!" The beautiful woman with short golden hair's thoughts raced. Who is it? And, this Conqueror's Haki was so unique! Rather than an aura, it felt more like killing intent, as captivating as facing the blade of a powerful warrior!

"It seems a formidable monster has arrived," the woman's eyes curved into a smile. Interesting. She could only go and see. She had nothing to fear, after all, her current identity was far from simple.

She descended the stairs from the attic. The guards were already unconscious, and the corridor was filled with sleeping people. She didn't even need to search, as only one room had guards still standing outside, motionless and oblivious. That must be it, then?

The woman walked to the door of that room with a charming smile, tilting her head slightly towards the young man guarding the door. "May I enter?"

Barrett looked down at the woman. Extremely beautiful. Even more enchanting than the so-called courtesans who went in earlier. But Barrett didn't care about such things. He only obeyed Lord Roa's commands.

"Let her in, Barrett," Lord Roa's command came.

Barrett decisively stepped aside. The woman smiled and pushed open the door. So, he was looking for me? What's his purpose? Does he want to get in touch with Big Mom? Or does he want to pledge allegiance to Golden Lion and hopes I'll introduce him? But she never expected...

"Yo! Still as beautiful as ever, Aunt Stussy's face." A clear, youthful voice rang out. The woman, Stussy, looked in astonishment at the young man leisurely sitting on the carpet, surrounded by several unconscious courtesans.

Aunt Stussy? Only one person would call her that! She remembered clearly. Roa pushed his sunglasses onto his forehead, looking at the gradually dazed woman, and said with a smile, "It shouldn't be that hard to recognize, right? I'm quite famous, I think."

"Roa!" Stussy called out the young man's name in shock. How is he here? Shouldn't he be in the Land of Endless War? And, was that Conqueror's Haki released by this kid? Are you kidding? That level of Conqueror's Haki!

Despite the shock in her heart, Stussy still didn't forget to act, and a slightly disgusted expression appeared on the beautiful woman's face. "What are you doing here? I don't recall us having any acquaintance." She remembered that Stussy and Roa had a very bad relationship.

"Eh? Saying such things to a first-time guest, is this really the attitude a professional in the service industry should have?" Roa said righteously. "Be careful, I'll report you to the World Government."

Stussy could no longer hear Roa's subsequent words. First time meeting! Roa had said that. These words kept echoing in her mind. What does he know?

"What nonsense are you spouting, Roa?" Deeply shocked, her face still showed a hint of indignation. "I'm not interested in your wild claims!"

"Honestly, then I'll put it another way," Roa sighed, then said seriously, "Artificial Human Stussy, you wouldn't want the World Government to know that you are an artificial human created by Vegapunk, would you?"

Stussy felt her body go weak. "You, how do you..."

He knows everything! What is going on here?
