Josh had returned to the Totto Land. It seems that the Charlotte Pirates are doing their casual job in protecting the island, baking cakes, and socialising.
As Josh had read their minds while coming back, he realised that the citizens are actually feeling safer with him in the lead of this place. One can't blame them. Linlin had used to kill them on Tuesdays and Fridays whenever she gets hungry.
"So, this is your territory?" Baccarat asked as she put her hand above her head. "And the buildings are having cuisine theme."
"Not decided yet," Josh replied. "But for now, treat it as your territory."
"Hmm… Guess I'm lucky then." Baccarat said as she stretched her arms up.
Josh gave her butt a slap and said. "Now, the girls will be nice here to show you the rounds. I have a business to do."
"What's your business?" Robin asked.
"I'm going to revive Linlin and make her my commander," Josh said. "Greed, Envy, Wrath and Wingman — You can stay out — will help me."
If Josh had Linlin as his slave, then he can send her to do his dirty work. She is very strong, and if he gave her a Devil Contract, she would get stronger enough to deal with annoyance he doesn't want to deal with.
Josh, after all, wants to sit down and enjoy the weather, for eternity.
As Josh finished his words, his demons appeared as he called them. Envy was taking the picture of a woman. Baccarat shape, Hancock curves, and Shirahoshi face.
Josh stared at that demon. "Can you stop with this?"
She was the definition of perfection. Envy had taken what's best about every girl.
Even the girls here were staring at Envy with envy.
"Come on, Master." She rubbed on her huge chest.
'Now, she is a piece of me. And I want to fuck a piece of me.' Josh thought. 'But my hand is a piece of myself too, and every being used their hand. And yes, my hand has feelings. So it's moral.'
"Whatever. Linlin's face will take all the charm away." Josh said, and he didn't mean it in a good way.
"So, you are going to revive that witch," Hancock said with anger. She had heard how had wanted to take Josh as her gigolo. Hancock hadn't been able to sleep as she felt angry that someone was trying to take Josh from her. Now, Josh wants to revive her rival. Hancock was unleashing a very strong killing intent.
Josh laughed when he read her mind. "Just a bitch on the corner."
"That's what you said about Kalifa," Mikita said as she pointed her thumb to the corner.
"Hey, I have feelings," Kalifa said coldly, barely taking it as an offence.
"Whatever…" Josh said as he jumped off the ship. "You guys do whatever you want." Using Moonwalk, he started walking on the air, moving at a very high speed that no one could see. He was heading in one direction.

On the edge of the island, two huge people were sitting. They were between 5 meters and 4.5 meters. Bandages were covering them.
Smoothie was holding a jar in her hand while she was sitting by one building. Her broken neck and shoulders were so sensitive and painful. She was still recovering from the pain she had suffered three days ago.
Next to her, there was the lifeless Katakuri, who had lost every once of his will. He had been beaten badly by Hancock, and now, he can't even see the future.
These two were the strongest commanders of their Bitch Mom, and now, they are wounded.
"Mama had brought that on us," Katakuri said as he lowered his head.
"Look in the good side." Smoothie stretched her legs. She lifted the jar to her face level and said. "We can forget about the hunger strikes."
"Yeah," Katakuri said. "And I could forget about this stupid mask. All I want is to eat doughnuts."
He wasn't having his scarf. Katakuri was somehow feeling relieved. He let a sigh.
"Do you think we have a chance to revenge?" Smoothie asked, pushing her silver hair backwards.
"From who?" Katakuri didn't need his Haki to know what she was going to say.
"The little demon," Smoothie said, furrowing her eyebrows.
"Do you want to die?"
"No," Smoothie said. "I want my pain to get over. And I want him to feel it." She rubbed on her neck. "I hadn't seen that bitch (Robin) doing it."
"Be careful. She may hear you and end you for good." Katakuri said in a cold tone. He reached his pocket, grabbed a donate, and lay on the ground. He swallowed the doughnuts. "Geez, I can finally eat this and lay without keeping my reputation." Katakuri doesn't have to keep it anymore.
"You really know how to lose." Smoothie rolled her eyes with disgust. She shook her jar. "You should be planning to take out that Little Demon."
Smooth felt something tapping on her knees. When she spread them, Josh's face was in front of her. Shocked, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
"Speaking of the Devil," Josh said as he lifted his hand. "He isn't little."
A surge of pain took over her and she put her hand on her neck. "Ouch! Did you have to appear from thin air?"
"Why are you here?" Katakuri gave Josh a side glance, before looking at the other side. After losing his Haki, he really lost his will to fight. And he didn't even seem to care.
"Yeah. I want Linlin's jars." Josh said as he walked between Smoothie's legs and put his hand on the jar.
"Hey!" Smoothie groaned and said. "You can't just take Mama's ashes. It's the only thing we've left of."
Katakuri didn't mind his opinion, which was like 'Whatever.'
Josh smiled. "You poor child. You must be missing your mommy that you don't want to lose what is left. Even when her killer is in front of you."
Josh could feel that Smoothie was afraid, despite faking a calm appearance. Linlin alone had the ability to kill them casually when she is hungry. Josh killed her while having the upper hand.
Smoothie nodded slowly, her blue lips shaking.
Josh put his hand on her lips corner and swept it. "Don't worry. I'll revive her, and you can be one big happy family again."
"You can?" Smoothie blinked twice, not believing what she heard.
"Yes." Josh nodded. "I never lie."
That was a big lie.
Somehow, Smoothie believed him, and she shouted.
"Are you out of your mind! You want to revive that bitch!" Smoothie seemed now to be more afraid of her mama.
Josh let a sigh. It was logical for Smoothie to act like this. After all, every married woman from Linlin's daughters schemed to kill their mom.
'Will my kids be the same.' Josh furrowed his eyebrows. 'They better not be. We don't have child service, and my belt is ready.'
Josh reached his hand to his belt, confirming his thoughts.
Seeing that, Smoothie shivered for a second. "Just keep her in control."
"I will," Josh said as he took the jar. "By the way, heal your wounds, you two."
Since she and her brother seemed to be timid for now, Josh handed them two pills. He turned then to leave.
Once Josh left, Katakuri, who finished chewing his doughnuts, looked at Smoothie.
"Didn't you say that you wanted to have revenge from the little demon?" He said with bored mocking eyes.
She sighed and ate the pill Josh handed to her, before lying on the ground. Somehow, her neck didn't hurt.
"I was a lazy girl since ever. I will keep procrastinating."
"Then you'll never revenge."
"But I will never feel bad about it," Smoothie said.

Josh was sitting on a chair. A crimson flame demon was flying around him, while Envy stood on his right. Greed was floating above them.
"How are you going to revive her, master?" Envy asked.
"Let's see." Josh stared at the opened jar that was placed a few meters away from him. He was holding a Golden Orb, a resurrection item.
He threw the orb inside the jar. The orb started glowing up. Josh had activated it with his intent, and it seemed to work.
The ashes vanished. Instead of it, Linlin appeared.
And she was naked.
Josh's eyelids started twitching.
They wanted to vanish from existence.
His body started shaking.
'Horror' is too little to express his feeling. English doesn't have enough words to express his feelings.
Josh closed his eyes, tears of self-pity and regrets of his actions accumulating.
"Emotional Damage," he said in frustration.
"What in the hell…" Linlin started coughing as she was on her knees, hands on the ground. She was recalling what happened, and why is she on the ground like this.
Flashes appeared in her head.
How her fiancee, just one day before their wedding, killed her.
The demon had outmatched her famed strength. Linlin had never seen someone physically stronger than her like that. She had divine strength ever since she was born. But it seems that demons are stronger.
That wasn't all that happened. Josh had ripped off her arms and legs, before directly stabbing her in the neck. Linlin had always believed that she has very tough skin that nothing could damage her ever. But No. Josh had managed to do it.
The demon face appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but scream in fear.
"Hearing your scream is the last thing that I want to experience."
Linlin lifted her head. Josh was sitting on his throne with a very hot woman that would have made Linlin doubt her sexuality if not for Josh.
Linlin started shaking as she stood up.
"Calm down. Unless you want to die again." Josh said these words. Red Demonic energy made a red aura around him. Taking the attribute of wrath, Josh unleashed a very strong momentum that made Linlin's heart start beating faster.
"Die, again?" Linlin muttered. "I died?"
How come she then came back to life?
