22 Devil Child vs Killer*

On the top floor of the Sanchez Tower, a fight was ensuing between Robin, Sofia, and Daz Bones. All the non-combatants were being evacuated swiftly when Robin held back Daz's initial attack. The latter was not some weak chicken either, he swiftly transformed into a blade human and started to slice through all the attacks causing her to bear immense pain.

He used his devil fruit ability and skills to counterattack Robin who has yet to reach her full potential. During her training with Zala, she learned a lot more creative use of her devil fruit and also trained her physique, so she was determined to give her best in this fight. 

The supporting guards also fired a barrage of bullets, some charged forward with swords and metal rods to engage in melee, a very bad decision against an opponent like Daz.

Meanwhile, Sofia Sanchez activated her powers, her eyes turned glowing white and she could immediately gather a lot more information in her head. She could now see through anyone's weakness, strange lines appeared on her opponent's body as she could see any openings in Daz Bone's form and also predict his moments.

Unlike mastering Observation Haki when one sees a little bit into the future, Sofia could only 'sense' it. But using her godly aim and mastery with ranged weapons that she had trained from childhood, she became a force to be reckoned with against tougher opponents. Ruling a mafia family without any strength and intellect was impossible in any world.

Daz Bones quickly dodged the bullets with skill and increased his offensive, even without his Devil Fruit powers, he is a very dangerous, extremely strong man, possessing considerable superhuman strength and endurance. This was seen when he was incarcerated in Impel Down and simply gave a headbutt to a fellow prisoner (who was larger than him) that proved strong enough to knock the man over a great distance. Mr. 1 was also most likely wearing seastone shackles at the time, and was punched by the prisoner hard in the head, but simply shrugged the pain off before retaliating.

After a few minutes of battle, he has already incapacitated and knocked out all of the guards in the room, taking out the weakest ones first has always been his style. 

"Stop resisting Sofia Sanchez, you will die today!! You cannot defeat me, all these parlor tricks are useless against me!" He said menacingly as he almost landed a hit on her.

"You'll have to defeat me first bald man, Treinta Fleur: Strangle", It's a deadly technique that uses thirty arms that Robin has sprouted. By sprouting her arms on the opponent's torso she attempted to strangle him to death and Sofia immediately fired a seastone bullet that hit him on his shoulder and leg catching him off-guard. His devil fruit was rendered useless as he felt pain in his body.

"Do you think you can stop me with sea stone bullets? I'll show you why I am called the killer." He said menacingly as he bore the sudden pain as he started using his immense strength and skills to break through the bindings. Like a maniac he then inserted his fingers into his wounds and took out the bloody sea stone bullet in front of their shocked eyes.

Meanwhile, a horse-drawn carriage was rushing through the streets at full speed.

"Kekeke Father! We'll reach the Sanchez tower in a few moments!"

"Heeheaahaha! Today will mark new beginnings, Vito. After I conquer West Blue Underworld my real plans will begin. One day I will conquer the Grand Line where the true powerhouses reside, the Four Emperors of the Seas. As my most trusted man, I'm inviting you first. Will you join my Fire Tank Pirates and sail with me, Vito?"

"I'll...."

Before he could answer the carriage jolted and came to a sudden stop, the horses were neighing ominously as if they had encountered a wild beast. Both the passengers were startled by the sudden commotion.

"Something's wrong, I can feel it," Vito exclaimed as this was not in their genius plan. The enemy had discovered their movements earlier, but Gotti's naval attack and Daz Bones's sneak attack should have provided enough distraction.

"Father! I'll go out first and check." Vito pulled out his gun and cautiously exited the carriage. The dimply lit street was empty and there was an eerie silence in the air. He scouted for any enemies on the roofs and windows but all of them were closed. He slowly approached the driver in order to check the situation but what he saw sent chills down his spine.

The driver was already dead, his eyes were wide open with shock and a matte black feather with a metallic shine was lodged precisely in the middle of his forehead creating an ominous feeling in his heart. Bege who followed Vito also saw the scene and was stunned.

"Bege Capone, welcome to my world!!" They suddenly heard another voice and footsteps. They both looked towards the other side of the street and noticed a shadowy figure leisurely walking towards them with hands in his pockets. They noticed a somewhat familiar face that exuded an air of undeniable power and charisma as he strode confidently through the dimly lit alley, his black coat billowing behind him in the cool night breeze.

Dressed in a meticulously tailored black suit, the man's attire spoke of both sophistication and danger. The coat he wore was sleek and fitted, accentuating his broad shoulders and lean physique. It was adorned with subtle, stylish accents that hinted at his wealth and influence. As he walked, he nonchalantly brought a cigarette to his lips, igniting it with a flick of a finger. The embers of the cigarette illuminated his sharp, chiseled features. His strong jawline and piercing blue eyes betrayed a sense of ruthlessness hidden beneath his charming exterior. Perched upon the broad shoulder, a black raven raven adds an intriguing and eerie touch to his enigmatic presence. The bird's sharp, intelligent eyes peer out from its shadowy plumage, reflecting an eerie and almost supernatural wisdom.

"Vitor Moriarty!!" Vito exclaimed in shock as he quickly drew his pistol.

"Finally we meet again Victor! The last time I saw you was at your parents' funeral, I almost didn't recognize you. It seems that the assassination attempt has changed you a lot." Bege said with an evil laugh. 

"Let's make it our last Bege, I don't think you'll get another chance to meet again in this lifetime," Victor said nonchalantly.

"Brat, you old man Adolf Moriarty tried to do the same, look what it cost him. When I killed your parents with my own hands, he couldn't take action because he had a fatal weakness. It was you Victor, his only grandson and last heir. To protect you from this world he went to great lengths but fortunately, you were just a talentless rich prodigal! What makes you think you'll defeat me when you are not even as strong as your grandfather?"

"Capone Gang Bege, your overconfidence will lead to your doom today. As we speak, your fleet has been annihilated before it could reach the shore and I can promise you that you'll be joining them soon in hell." Victor answered coldly as he taunted Bege.

"And do you think you can beat me and my men alone, little Moriarty? You are already outnumbered and surrounded. Boy's ready the cannons!" He ordered his men angrily. Many latch doors opened on his body and cannons started to pop out from them.
