Uchiha Puppet Master, Starting from One Piece

The once noisy hall instantly descended into chaos.

Countless guests panicked and tried to escape, only to find that all the exits were blocked by gang members armed with heavy weapons.

"Everyone, get down! Anyone who moves will be killed on sight!"

LeBon's men, like wolves and tigers, pointed their guns at the crowd.

"LeBon, are you crazy?"

The speaker was a burly man with blond hair.

He sat at a table in the center of the hall, toying with a revolver in his hand, looking at Le Bon's men with disdain.

"This is my territory. Do you intend to go on a killing spree here?"

Immediately afterward, another chilling voice came from the corner: "LeBon, don't be so arrogant. This auction also has owners. Are you trying to wipe us out by sealing off the entire venue?"

The speaker was a man wearing a black suit and sporting a goatee.

He was surrounded by men in black, each with bulging waistbands, clearly carrying weapons. Then Capone Bege appeared before them.

Kebang stood on the second-floor railing, looking at the two men, and laughed wildly: "Capone Bege, don't give me any nonsense! My things were stolen in this venue, and nobody's leaving today! If you know what's good for you, cooperate with me, otherwise..."

He abruptly drew his gun from his waist and pointed it at the two men: "Then I'll kill you both too!"

"Ha!" Capone Becky laughed loudly and slammed his hand on the wall.

"So, you think you can take us all out with you? LeBron, who do you think you are? A Marine Admiral?"

"Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"

The blond man also stood up, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

The atmosphere among the three forces instantly became tense, with tensions rising.

Just then, a crisp gunshot broke the stalemate.

"Bang!"

Whether out of nervousness or on purpose, one of LeBron's men accidentally discharged the bullet, which grazed Capone Becky's ear.

This shot completely ignited the explosive barrel.

"Let's do it!"

At a single command, the three gangs instantly clashed in a chaotic battle.

Gunshots, explosions, and screams mingled together. Bullets flew everywhere, and flames shot into the sky.

The originally luxurious auction venue instantly turned into a scene of carnage.

The guests screamed and fled in all directions, but were often hit by stray bullets and fell into pools of blood.

The chaotic battle between the three gangs turned the entire auction venue into a living hell, but after a brief stalemate, the three gang leaders, LeBron, Capone Becky, and the blond man, realized that continuing like this would only result in mutual destruction.

Therefore, they all turned their attention to the wealthy individual investors present.

These wealthy businessmen not only might possess Devil Fruits, but they also carry enormous wealth, making them prey for all three factions in the instant the three locked eyes.

Matsumoto Rangiku shook her head helplessly: "Although it's quite satisfying to double-cross someone, it seems that guy isn't a reasonable person either. Looks like I'm in for a busy day."

Connor calmly extended his little fist: "Want to play? Connor wants to play too."

"If they wanted to attack, we fought back in self-defense."

"Uh, Robin, this is gang territory, so there's no such thing here."

Chaos erupted again as members of the three gangs attacked the other members.

However, when they tried to approach Uchiha Hakuba and the others, they were met with a fierce counterattack.

Facing the henchmen, Uchiha Hakuba simply flashed and instantly appeared in front of a group of gang members.

The Kusanagi sword gleamed with a cold light, and with a few slashes, the opponent's weapon was severed, followed by a scream of agony.

Do you feel guilty about hitting them?

"Absolutely not."

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

More than twenty armed gang members surrounded Nico Robin.

"Don't say we're bullying you because you're outnumbered; that pretty boy over there can't help you."

However, they did not hear the expected screams of terror, nor did they see her run away.

Nicole Robin simply stood there quietly, without even blinking.

Her hands remained in her coat pockets, with only her long hair gently brushing against her cheeks in the barely perceptible airflow.

"Don't worry, at worst you'll just lose consciousness. A riot of colors, a giant tree, an attack!"

Her voice was as soft as a sigh, yet her laughter was exceptionally gentle.

In that very second, the world seemed to transform into a strange scene.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out, as if something had shattered.

Immediately afterwards, the bodies of more than twenty gang members froze at the same time.

Without any preparatory movements or fancy starting stances, death arrived the instant before they pulled the trigger.

Countless enormous arms appeared out of thin air behind everyone's eyes, these arms possessing overwhelming monstrous strength, bursting forth instantly.

boom! boom! boom!

The sickening cracking of bones created a continuous sound, like a terrifying domino effect.

While it may indeed not be fatal, as Nico Robin says, that doesn't mean it won't hurt.

"You've chosen the wrong opponent; I'm getting stronger too."

Nico Robin said calmly.

The once noisy hall was now filled only with heavy breathing.

Dozens of people were lying haphazardly on the ground.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

While Uchiha Hakuba and Matsumoto Rangiku's swordsmanship was impressive, Nico Robin's "Myriad Colors - Giant Tree" was even more spectacular. Faced with the horrific scene before them, the expressions of the three gang leaders, LeBron, Capone Bege, and the blond boss, instantly shifted from arrogance to solemnity.

LeBon's eyes were fixed on Nico Robin. Her terrifying speed and ability to instantly kill his subordinates had made his heart pound. He knew very well that it was the power of a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user.

He longed to have such powerful subordinates team up with him.

Capone Becky had already hunched over into a defensive stance, his eyes filled with vigilance.

He noticed the seemingly harmless little girl, Connor, standing to the side.

Although Connor seemed to be the easiest to deal with, he knew he couldn't get close to the little girl at all. At this moment, he desperately longed for the power of a Devil Fruit of his own.

The three gang leaders exchanged glances, and each saw hesitation in the other's eyes.

They realized that the strength of the three people in front of them far exceeded their expectations.

"Wait a moment!"

The blond leader finally couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, raising his hands: "Everyone, please stop! We don't want to be your enemies!"

His colleague, Le Bang, quickly chimed in, "That's right! They say you become friends after a fight. Our men were being disrespectful and offended you all. If you're willing to stop, we're willing to pay any price to make amends!"

The three gang leaders had completely lost their earlier arrogance. They could only hope that the other side would agree to stop fighting, because continuing to fight against such a powerful enemy would only lead to their deaths.

There's no need to lose your men under these circumstances, otherwise others will take advantage of the situation.
