One Piece Legacy: TimeScape Part 22

Eien and SwizZz were being escorted to the top deck by Wayne. Several soldiers watched as they past. SwizZz looked to each of them and stuck his tongue out. "Never saw a Time Lord and a Warlock walking to their doom before? Keep ya eyes to ya self!"

Eien shook his head. "Most wise not to provoke them."

"Eh, I die, they don't get Chiana. Orwell kills who killed me. Simple as that."

"True... But they won't kill you slow. They kill you really slow. If I must praise ROGE for something i can't for anyone, it's their innovations in torture. Even I blush at some ideas these sickos make up."

SwizZz looks around with a smile. "Well then.. Maybe I could absorb one or two. You think the big man would notice?"

"Most likely."

"Oh come on, he's always getting freaky with the girls. For all he knows, some if these guys might be dead in their cabins."

"You're a very disturbed individual."

"Hello pot, my name is kettle."

"True, but I'm old. I grown to this. Besides, he won't notice, he will."

Eien thumbs to Wayne.

"See, he's the worse kind of guy. The type that cares."

SwizZz shrugged. "Hey, is there a guy that you don't like? I'm hungry."

"You eat people?!"

"No, of course not. I absorb people. Sometimes it works as nurishment."

"... So you eat people."

"Kind of."

"Even I don't do that. How can you say i'm bad, cannibal?"

"It's not like I kill them. They just live on in my subconscious."

"Completely restricted to your will?"

"Maybe. Sometimes I black out. Last time that happened, I ended up a pirate. And everything goes downhill from there."

"Well, I wonder how that happened. Life is full of consequences. I mean, you have no one to blame but yourself. That road you're going down? Could have easily been avoided."

"What, eating that fruit?"

"No. It's when you became okay with using it. In a way, even I think the power you have is evil. Tell me one good thing it does for anyone."

SwizZz tries to think of an idea... But can't. He has no idea how to use his fruit for anything but selfish gain. "I guess it wasn't meant to be used to help others.. Then again.. I have met a select few that do use their fruit for that purpose, but not even you can judge me Eien. If I remember correctly, you've executed as many people as I have, possibly more. For what? Your own ambitions? For this perfect timeline? Even you must know everything happens for a reason. The perfect timeline you're spouting about is pure nonsense."

"That's true... I have had my fair share of blood on my hands. But I'm nothing like you Warlock. You do it for fun. I have a purpose. My timeline will come true. And for all you know, nonsense makes perfect sense."

"I've had enough of you really. Wayne... It's wayne right? Is there a place where we can fight one on one? Me and Eien? I'm gonna break his face!!"

"Resorting to violence when you're losing an argument? Childish."

"You just know I'll win!... One good thing huh? I've absorbed so much knowledge from people, books, plants, animals, even the streets tell tales to me. And that one good thing my powers will do. Is prevent you from ever achieving your goal."
