Somewhere in the Grandline;
"Fufufufu! You will regret it, Tyler. You don't understand who you've offended."
The veins on Doflamingo's forehead started popping, displaying the anger that was brewing in his heart.
The Den Den Mushi in front of him continued.
"If you haven't noticed, there is a guy who might soon be the reason for an admiral to chase us in my crew."
"I am not even afraid of that. Why would I regret making an enemy of someone like you?"
"I am not interested in this trash talk. I am only letting this man live for one reason. If he becomes a pirate again, I will kill him myself."
"Now, get lost!"
The Den Den Mushi no longer displayed Tyler's features. At this moment, Doflamingo's Conqueror Haki exploded like crazy.
Several of his crew got consciousness under his spirit; only Trebol, Pica, Corazon, and Law managed to stand.
"Doffy, calm down! Calm down!"
"How can I be calm, Trebol? My family was killed, and I could do nothing but let it happen. How can I be calm?"
Doflamingo roared.
"I will not let that bastard live another. I am going to the West Blue."
He stood up from his chair, but Pica stopped him.
"Young Master, you mustn't. Did you forget what we just learned from that man?"
"Yes, Doffy! You mustn't visit the West Blue, not yet. Twenty-five, although it is unknown which CP factions they belong to, twenty-five of them are found dead in the West Blue."
"There has been a serious threat in the West Blue for a while. It's best to avoid this mess. We can check them later."
When Doflamingo heard that, he calmed down as well.
He just recently learned about this incident. The death of twenty five Cp agents had been quite a shock for the World Government.
He knew the world government sent those agents to find Nico Robin, especially since several criminal organizations had been searching for Tyler.
This led to these organizations discovering Robin's location several times. When the World Government learned about that, they sent agents.
But the more agents entered the West Blue, the less they came out alive.
And, this person didn't just target the World Government. Sometimes he would even target the pirates.
Most of those pirates happened to be pirates with a lot of crime and blood on their hands. Knowing this, Doflamingo controlled his rage and said.
"Trebol, place a bounty of five hundred million berries for Tyler in the underworld."
Hearing that, Trebol immediately. Although this price was quite outrageous, he knew Doffy was mad right now.
If he made any more mistakes, it would only make him angrier.
Only then did Doffy focus on Law and said.
"You managed to stay awake under the influence of my Conqueror Haki. Unfortunately, you only have a year to live. Still, let Corazon take you to a few more hospitals."
"Let's see if there is a way to cure your disease."
Hearing that, Law coldly nodded his head, but a look of disdain appeared on his face when he looked at Corazon.
It was only recently that he learned about Corazon being able to speak. Unfortunately, he hadn't said this to Doflamingo, so nobody knew about it.
—————————————
"I admire your spirit, so I am letting you go this time, but if you remain in Doflamingo's crew or even remain a pirate, I will kill you."
"You might think I am trying to control your life, but sometimes a simple guidance like this can change your life forever."
He said while glaring at Senor Pink.
Although he admired this man's spirit, he didn't mind killing him if he continued being a pirate.
Senor Pink remained silent throughout this conversation. He neither begged Tyler to let Diamante go nor supported Doflamingo.
He just stood there, waiting. After hearing Tyler's words, he nodded and left.
He soon found Donquixote Ship and took out a smaller boat from that ship. Using this boat, he sailed away.
He didn't take this ship since it belonged to Tyler and his crew. More importantly, he couldn't sail this ship on his own.
After he left, Tyler checked the wound on his chest. There was still a hole, but it was slowly healing.
"It seems complete recovery requires some time and energy. I should go return to the ship."
He muttered before walking towards the ship.
But when he was walking there, he found something interesting.
One of the fruits was reborn on this island, or rather, a fruit on a small fruit basket near a large, destroyed building.
If he hadn't checked the surroundings while walking, he wouldn't have noticed it. He went forward and picked it up.
Either it's Ton Ton Fruit or Ripple Ripple Fruit. No matter what it was, this fruit could be sold for more than a hundred million berries.
It could also be given to one of his future crewmates. But considering how he didn't plan to recruit a large number, he wasn't sure what to do with it.
'Hmm! There is also gold in Sky Island. So, let's not sell it! I can store it for now.'
Previously, he used to wonder why people would keep the Devil Fruit in their baskets and not eat it.
Only now, he understood the reason. It was kept for future use, but most people die before they can use it in the future.
'Well, I hope that doesn't happen with me.'
"Hahahahaha!"
Tyler couldn't help but burst into laughter when thinking about that.
He smelled something good when he got closer to the ship, but he thought it was Miya's shampoo. So, he ignored it.
He walked back to his ship, only to notice a gloomy atmosphere in the ship.
He hurried to the ship and jumped.
When he landed on the ship, Adam and Frank also noticed him.
"What's wrong?"
Tyler worriedly asked, especially after not seeing Miya.
"Miya has been seriously injured in her battle. We barely managed to stabilize her situation. We need to find a doctor soon."
Hearing that, Tyler clenched his fist and asked.
"Then, Adam, why didn't you help her? I saw you finish your battle first."
'Damn! If only I ....'
Before he could say that, Adam replied.
"Captain, she wouldn't let me help. I was about to help her, but she screamed no to my face."
'Though I was quite far.'
Tyler rubbed his forehead. The guilt in his heart disappeared as well. He realized Miya must've been too stubborn.
Otherwise, his crew wouldn't have left her alone. Thinking about it, he released a deep breath and asked.
"Where is she?"
"She must be in her room."
The next moment, he came to the answer by himself and ran to her room. Soon, he opened the door and entered her room.
There was a chair next to the door, and a woman was sitting on the chair. But his eyes didn't fall there; his eyes were only on the bed where Miya was.
When he saw her covered in bandages and lying on the bed, he clenched his fist.
"Damn it! How can she be so stubborn? Does she think she has a mythical zoan like me?"
"Frank, once she recovers, she will be forbidden to eat any of her favorite food for a month."
"No!"
Miya suddenly opened her eyes and screamed.
"Miya!"
Tyler was stunned for a moment before he quickly ran to the bed, followed by Frank and Adam, who gave a quick nod to the woman and ran towards the bed.
"Miya, you finally woke up."
"Miya, how are you?"
At this moment, Miya showed a crying look as she said.
"Captain, I dreamt of you forbidding Frank from cooking my favorite cake."
Thud! Thud! Thud!
All three of them fell to the ground simultaneously. Frank was the first to get up as he shouted.
"You, idiot, lustful girl, that wasn't a dream."
"No, Captain, you can't do that. I won my battle."
Miya showed a look of horror as she cried.
Tyler angrily tried to flick her forehead, but looking at the bandages around her body, he stopped.
"You idiot, do you think you have a mythical zoan? How dare you face that man by yourself? Even Frank alone wouldn't be able to defeat him."
"Didn't I ask you to defeat the other two first and then help Frank fight Lao G? Do you think he is a weakling? That man can fight a pirate with the bounty over a hundred million."
"Captain, does that mean I am worth over a hundred million?" Miya excitedly asked.
"You..." Just when Tyler was about to get angry, Miya got serious and said.
"Captain, I couldn't ask for help. Not out of pride or anything. I just didn't want to lose to him."
"I know we are a crew, and we can help each other, but we will face a stronger opponent in the Grandline, right?"
"Frank and I are your wings, Captain. How can the Wings of the future Pirate King admit defeat just because their enemies are stronger?"
