Galan laid Sugar down on the table and looked at her, asking "Seen her before?" Rosinante held Baby5 in his arm and shook his head, saying "Never. Must be new to the crew." Baby5 pointed at Sugar saying "I can tell you about her."
Galan looked at her and Baby5 hesitated before saying "But you have to let the guy who brought me here live!" Olvia smiled gently and held Baby5, smiling "He's not going to die, honey. What's your name?"
Baby5 said, "My name is Baby5." Rosinante sighed and explained to Galan, "Her parents didn't want her, so she has an excessive need for people to need her. She does have a name but my brother gave her this one…"
Galan looked at Baby5 before turning to Sugar, saying "It doesn't matter if she talks or not. Or what her name is. I don't care." he pinched Sugar's jaw and continued "What we need to do is keep the word of the Hobby Hobby fruit from spreading." he frowned and touched Sugar's tongue in hesitation.
Sugar teared up and everyone was silent before he let go, snorting "I'll see what Vegapunk can do. If he can't extract the Devil Fruit…" Rosinante asked with a heavy face, "What are you going to do? Why are you so obsessed with this fruit?"
Galan frowned and said "This kind of evil thing shouldn't exist. There's no benefit to the Fruit itself. It can only be used for evil." he looked at Sugar and said "Even if she isn't evil, her power can only be used for Evil."
Rosinante was confused, asking "But if she became a Marine-" Galan cut him off and explained "You seem to be misunderstanding something. The fruit will keep her this way. Forever. She is essentially immortal since she ate the fruit, according to my source. The fruit grants extremely strong power, however you can never get stronger. This is the drawback."
He shook his head and added, "This kind of disgusting thing… Take a step back and say an Admiral received the fruit. They erase criminals from everyone's mind, turning them into toys. How can we learn from the past? You make mistakes and finally catch a criminal only for everything about them to disappear in a puff of smoke. Forget about accolades. Not even the experience and growth you went through to accomplish the task will be remembered."
He sighed and looked at Sugar, "You poor thing. Just like this girl over here, you willingly became a tool. She lost her name and became an object for Doflamingo while you lost everything." he stroked her hair before shaking his head, walking away, "This piece of shit really deserves to die."
Galan pulled out a few snails and a white box, saying "Bathe them, give them clothes, I'll figure out what to do with them when I'm done. Don't take off Sugar's-" he paused and turned around, muttering "Nevermind, I'll do it."
He grabbed the chains around Sugar and ripped them off her body, coating his arms in a goopy Haki aura. The aura converged and he grabbed the Seastone cuffs on her hands, grunting with an expressionless face.
Sugar cried out in pain, "Ah!" and Galan let go, saying "Take her." Olvia and Rosinante stared at the cuffs on Sugar's wrists in shock. The mid section was shattered and the cuffs themselves were deformed, wrapped around her wrists like a vice!
Rosinante felt goosebumps, this was probably the most absurd thing he had ever seen!
Olvia, however, wasn't happy, saying "She's just going to wear them forever?!" Galan replied slowly "I will figure something out. Just go." Olvia picked up Sugar and cooed softly "Come on, darling. I'm not gonna hurt you."
Sugar cried and sniffled, holding onto Olvia's shirt, burying her face into her shoulder. Olvia glared at Galan, she was only a 10 year old girl! She hadn't eaten the fruit for more than a few weeks!
It was absurd for Galan to be so rough!
Galan didn't pay her any mind, saying "Rosinante, you should be training, right?" Rosinante laughed once and left the house in a daze. Olvia brought the two girls upstairs to give them a bath, showing her anger by stomping up the stairs.
Unfortunately, Galan didn't care about it. He didn't even realize. He was trying to figure out what to do with the two. Hide Sugar on an island and leave her there? But she would die.
He sighed to himself, there was no easy solution. Unless he killed her and went to find the fruit afterwards, which was not going to happen. He couldn't put her in Impel Down, the 5 Elders would take her out in an instant and she would live a life worse than death.
He frowned to himself, tapping the table. It was really a pain! This bastard Doflamingo…
Vegapunk was his only hope now. As well as the only hope for Sugar to live a semi normal life. As for Baby5… Another headache. She was too volatile. Galan could put her in SWORD but what if she ran back to Doflamingo and spilled the beans?
He didn't know enough about her. He decided to have Rosinante send him the files and reports on every single member of Doflamingo's crew. He got careless and this was the consequence.
No more.
Vegapunk answered "Hello?" almost whispering… Galan said directly "I have an issue. I came through this special channel because it's about that other thing." Vegapunk let out a breath, saying "You don't have to use code words. They're not monitoring me."
Galan closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with one hand, replying "And if they are, they know everything now…" Vegapunk snorted "They can't. I bug all my snails and breed them myself. Some of the Snails aren't even living. They are created by me! What's the problem?"
Galan frowned and said "I have the Hobby Hobby fruit eater with me. A 10 year old girl." Vegapunk's eyes bulged out, shouting "That fruit!? Oh god! Hopefully, she didn't touch anyone you know!" Galan replied calmly "No. I kept a list of the team, we did a headcount afterwards, no one missing. All of them; fine. I need you to come up with a way to extract it from her body… And I need child sized Pure Seastone bracelets, anklets, and ear piercings."
Vegapunk retorted "Hey, hey, hey! I'm not your warehouse! Plus! Even if you give me a billion years, I can't do such a thing as extract a Devil Fruit! It's impossible-quasar!" Galan said slowly "I believe you can do it. Plus, there's a little girl's entire life at stake." Vegapunk shouted angrily "Stop morally kidnapping me! I'll try my best! Don't expect anything, I'm not god! I can make the bracelets and piercings in the meantime… Extracting Devil Fruits… Hmm… I want your blood though!"
Galan stared at the microphone with a confused look on his face and Vegapunk explained "I'm working on something… Hmmm! It could be BIG!" Galan frowned and replied "I don't want to be cloned like Buckingham." Vegapunk retorted "No! I already did that! Boring! I want to do something else. Something better!"
Galan was silent for a few seconds before saying "Come get it yourself." Vegapunk was jumping up and down, shouting "I will, you bastard! You think I won't?! A simple weapons demonstration is enough to get me over there! Hahahaha-Quasar! I'll bring your things, you wait for me!" before he hung up, seemingly excited.
Galan shook his head, another mentalcase…
