The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 357 Three Days Later

Luffy opened his eyes with great effort, only to see a blur in front of his eyes and a dizzy head, as if countless bees were buzzing inside.

"Where is this place?" He muttered subconsciously, and then his memory gradually came back, and his eyes suddenly widened, "I've been captured! Where are Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and the others??"

Luffy was full of anxiety at the moment. What he cared about most was the safety of his companions. As he spoke, he kept looking around, trying to find his companions in this unfamiliar environment.

This is Wes's laboratory, surrounded by all kinds of strange instruments and equipment, flashing cold lights, exuding a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.

Luffy was currently trapped in a transparent jar. The material of the jar looked extremely strong and was filled with an unknown liquid that soaked his entire body.

There was a ventilator in his mouth to maintain the most basic breathing, and his body was full of densely packed tubes that were connected to the surrounding instruments. He could clearly feel his blood being slowly drawn out through the tubes, and at the same time, some unknown substances were being injected into his body through other tubes.

The injected substance was extracted from seastone, a special substance that could restrain people with special abilities. So at this moment, Luffy felt weak all over and couldn't exert any strength at all. He was like a fish on the chopping board waiting to be slaughtered, and could only be helplessly trapped in the jar.

Luffy turned his head with difficulty and looked around. He found that except for Franky and Brook, all his companions were trapped in these transparent jars like himself. Everyone had their eyes closed and their life or death was uncertain. The scene made Luffy's heart tighten.

He was extremely anxious and continued to look around, trying to find any trace of his two companions, praying in his heart that nothing would happen to them.

At this moment, the door of the laboratory slowly opened, and Wes walked in with the sound of footsteps.

He first glanced at Luffy who had already woken up, with no special expression on his face. He just said lightly: "You have been sleeping for three days."

"Woo~wu~"

When Luffy saw Weiss, he suddenly became excited and began to struggle desperately, trying to break through the jar to question Weiss, but the jar was too strong and no matter how hard he tried, it didn't move at all.

"Are you trying to find out the whereabouts of your other two companions?"

Weiss asked, raising an eyebrow slightly as if she could see through Luffy's thoughts.

Luffy nodded hurriedly and vigorously, his eyes fixed on Weiss, his eyes full of anxiety and worry.

Weiss walked slowly to a chair nearby and sat down, crossing his legs. Then, resting his head on his right hand, he said slowly, "Your robot companion is very interesting."

He paused, looking at Luffy's nervous expression, and continued: "I erased his mind and consciousness, turning him into a true robot. Now I have transformed him into the leader of the pacifists."

When Luffy heard this, he was stunned, his face full of disbelief. He could not imagine that Franky, who was always full of energy, had all kinds of strange ideas, and fought side by side with him, would have his consciousness erased.

"As for that afro-headed skull, he was killed by me. I am quite interested in the Yomiuri fruit, but what I am most interested in is the fruit in your body." Weiss was still talking to himself, but Luffy didn't hear a word of what he said afterwards. When he heard that Franky's consciousness and thoughts were erased and Brook was killed, he felt his brain went blank and the whole world collapsed at this moment.

Various emotions intertwined in his heart: anger, fear, and despair, made him at a loss for a moment, and he seemed to have fallen into an endless abyss of darkness.

Not knowing where he got the strength from, Luffy suddenly tore off the mask and syringe, then raised his fist desperately, hitting the can one after another. Even though the hard can broke his fist and blood flowed, he had no intention of stopping. His eyes revealed determination and madness. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, that is, to rush out and seek revenge on Weiss.

Weiss did not stop him, because for Weiss, the samples had been collected enough. The various data and samples obtained from Luffy and others in these days were enough to create a more powerful Seraph, so he just sat there quietly, watching Luffy go crazy, as if he was watching a boring farce.

In his extreme anger and despair, Luffy accidentally used the Domineering Aura, and the powerful Domineering Aura wrapped around his fist. Finally, with a "crash", the jar was smashed, and the liquid inside rushed out instantly, carrying Luffy out with it, and he fell to the ground in a mess.

"Cough~ cough~" Luffy lay on the ground, coughing non-stop. The struggle just now almost exhausted all his physical strength. At this moment, he could only weakly support himself on the ground, gasping for breath.

"what did you just say?"

Luffy raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. He wished he had heard it wrong. He really couldn't accept that his companions had suffered such a tragic fate.

"Don't you want to believe it?" Weiss, still crossing his legs, a mocking smile on his face, said in a cold tone, "I've already warned you. It was your willful behavior that killed your companion."

When Luffy heard this, the last taut string in his heart finally broke, and he roared: "Kill you!!"

In this desperate and helpless situation, he used his Tyranny once again. The powerful aura burst out from him, and the atmosphere in the entire laboratory became solemn.

However, it was too late, Weiss just glanced at him indifferently.

In an instant, Luffy felt like he was being pressed down by an invisible mountain. He was pinned to the ground, unable to move. The flame of resistance that had just ignited in him was ruthlessly extinguished.

"The game of house ends here. No matter which world it is, it is cruel. Straw Hat Boy, your adventure ends here."

Weiss stood up and walked slowly towards Luffy. Every step seemed to step on Luffy's heart, making him feel extremely desperate.

A few seconds later, Weiss stretched out his hand, and saw that he was holding a phantom in his hand. It was the Nika form of the Mythical Beast Species of the Human-Human Fruit in Luffy's body. At this moment, the phantom of this devil fruit was constantly colliding, trying to break free from Weiss' control.

Animal-type devil fruits all have a certain degree of consciousness, and they will choose their hosts independently. Obviously, Weiss's behavior does not satisfy it, but no matter how much it struggles, it is still powerless in the face of Weiss's powerful strength.
