"And she didn't eat the devil's fruit?" Luffy asked, and Ms. Valentine shook her head, saying no. "Interesting," said Luffy. Before he could say anything else, Luffy heard a sound rumbling to his right and looked that way.
When he turned around, Luffy saw a giant cake made of wax with five lighted candles spinning on top. "Well, it's not something you see every day," said Luffy in a bored tone.
"That's what Mr. 3 did," said Mr. 5, "letting everyone there know that he is still alive.
"Well, I hope this guy is more fun than the two of you because I was so annoyed I'm getting bored now," said Luffy as he got up from the cloud and walked towards the two of them.
Luffy then lifted the two of them and threw them into the clouds. Luffy then started walking to where all the fun seemed to be going on, while his cloud followed behind him.
After walking for a few minutes, Luffy and the two agents captured a sight that made Luffy feel embarrassed. Standing trapped in the cake wax are all of his crew members except for Sanji and Vivi.
Karoo was tied up next to a little girl drinking tea. Luffy also saw Dorry's figure, which he could feel was still alive, and Brogy, who was caught.
"Luffy!" his crew all screamed when they saw him come out of the woods. Luffy looked at them all with a cold gaze before he spoke.
"What do you guys want?" Luffy asked in a cold voice that surprised them.
"What do you mean? Get us out of here!" shouted Nami.
"I will if I want to," Luffy repeated, causing all of their eyes to widen. Luffy then turned his attention to the man with hair shaped like the number 3. "I think you are Mr. 3?" Luffy asked while looking at him.
"That's right. Looks like you managed to beat Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine," said Mr. 3 while adjusting his glasses. "But that means nothing; as you can see, I have captured your crew, and they are all about to die!" he shouted before starting to laugh out loud.
"Oh yeah, I can see that pretty well," said Luffy as he glance at his crew.
"Luffy, what's your problem?" Nami shouted, "We're going to die!" she shouted in frustration.
You seven are going to get killed because you can't handle a bunch of clowns. Luffy said angrily, causing loud thunderbolts to boom overhead and start striking the island randomly.
Everyone looked at Luffy in shock and fear. The last time the crew saw Luffy so angry was when Nami stole the ship and betrayed the crew, but even that couldn't compare to this.
"And the so-called vice-captain over there wanted to be the greatest swordsman in the world, and now he's trapped by someone weaker," said Luffy before he raised his right hand in the air. "Try to survive this," he said.
"Judgements!" he shouted, then Luffy lowered his arm, causing a huge pillar of lightning to descend and strike the cake made of wax and shatter it. Mr. 3 watches as his masterpiece is easily destroyed and his prisoner is now cake-free, but they still have the candles that locked their legs together.
He turned towards Luffy and looked at him with hatred in his eyes before charging towards him.
"Candle Lock!" Mr. 3 shouted while pushing his hand forward, causing a wave of wax to flow toward Luffy, who didn't move an inch. After the wax coated Luffy's leg, it solidified rapidly, locking Luffy's leg in place.
"Now what are you going to do, Mr. Bounty? 100 million berries!" Mr. 3 taunts, thinking he managed to catch Luffy.
"Is this all?" Luffy asked in a bored tone, causing a satisfied smile to appear on Mr. 3, which disappeared, and an angry expression to appear on his face.
"What do you mean only this?" he asked angrily. "You're trapped, and I can add you to my collection along with the rest of your crew once I catch them again!" Mr. 3 shouted at Luffy, who only sighed before coating his entire lower body with lightning, causing the wax on his feet to melt. "W-what? H-how?" Mr. 3 asked in disbelief.
"Lightning is five times hotter than the surface of the sun, you idiot," said Luffy as he started walking towards Mr. 3"And I thought you would be a formidable foe," Luffy said with a sigh, still walking towards Mr. 3.
"I guess I got my hopes up too high," said Luffy in a bored tone before disappearing from everyone's sight. and reappears right next to Mr. 3 before he delivers a lightning-speed kick to Mr. 3's face, which made him fly away from that place.
Ms. Goldenweek opened her eyes, seeing how easily her partner had been beaten.
"He beat Mr. 3," said Ms. Valentine in a disbelieving voice as she looked up from above the clouds.
She knows Luffy is strong, but she doesn't think he is as strong as Mr. 3. She thought that Mr. 3 was going to fight Luffy to his limit before Luffy finally gave in, but instead, Luffy took care of Mr. 3 without breaking a sweat; it's like a giant stepping on an ant.
"Well, that cleared it up," Luffy said in a bored tone before turning to his crew. When he turned and looked at them, he saw them all lying on the ground with their legs still locked, staring at him.
Luffy sighed before walking over and putting his finger in wax causing it to melt due to the heat of lighting, then turning his attention to Ms. Goldenweek and two bonded agents.
"Damn it, my clothes are on fire!" came Nami's voice, causing Luffy to turn his attention to her. When Luffy looked at her, he saw Nami standing there with her clothes completely gone and only her bra remaining.
"When I'm done with this, your clothes will be the last thing you worry about," said Luffy in a monotone voice that caused them all to stiffen up a bit. Luffy finally turned his attention back to the three Baroque Works agents.
"What are we going to do with them, Captain?" Zoro asked while looking at the three agents. Luffy didn't say anything; instead, he walked toward the three agents and spoke.
"I'll make a bid for the three of you," Luffy said, getting their attention. "You guys can either die," Luffy said, causing their eyes to widen.
"Or you guys can join my crew," Luffy said, causing their eyes to widen even more and their mouths to drop.
