"Huh, so this world has Versace also?" Remarked Diddy lightly as he stared in the mirror while wearing luxurious and expensive clothes.
Although I wasn't a fan of the color scheme, I looked great in them, and they were comfortable, so I decided to keep them; exiting the dressing room, I walked around the store until I arrived at the jewelry section, where I grabbed several golden braces and melted them together using my lightning. Once I had finished melting the several golden bracelets into a headband, I returned to the dressing room to see how I looked, though I didn't know what I was expecting.
"Well, this like like complete shit." Muttered Diddy lightly as he placed the burnt and malformed headband on his head, only to click his tongue.
While I failed to replicate the golden headband I usually wear with my outfit, it wasn't a complete waste since I was able to smooth things out with my haki, although the places where I melted the bracelets together were burnt.
"Whatever, it's good enough." Said Diddy softly as he looked at himself before shrugging his shoulders and exiting the dressing room.
While walking through the store, I happened to pass by the women's section, causing me to stop as I furrowed my brows.
'Hmm, I don't know if they will survive the trip, but I suppose it wouldn't be a waste of time.' Mused Diddy with a thoughtful expression as he gazed at the women's clothes before summoning Nimbus from his body.
Grabbing a bunch of clothes that were meant for petite women, I tossed them into Nimbus before absorbing the cloud back into my body; hopefully, Trenza would like it, but I didn't dwell on it for long since I wasn't expecting them to survive the trip back.
"Speaking of that… How the hell am I supposed to return home?" Asked Diddy in confusion as he leaped onto the ceiling before wrapping his tail around a light, only to hang upside down with a thoughtful expression.
That was a question I was utterly clueless about; first off, I don't even fully know how I ended up in New York in the first place; now, I need to somehow figure out how to return home to New World.
"Should I just fly around the ocean and hope I stumble across another whirlpool with a weird portal at the bottom of it? My observation haki is large, but even so, it would take me a few days to cover every inch of the seven oceans; that's not even considering that the whirlpool probably isn't permanent. Not to mention, it might be a one-way portal, and now I'm stuck here." Remarked Diddy with a slight frown as he folded his arms, deeply pondering while hanging upside down.
I was entirely clueless and spent the next hour doing nothing but thinking of how I'd return home; however, in the end, it was all pointless since I was still at square one. The only saving grace was the fact the store had no customers since they'd all left the moment they stepped into the building and spotted the several corpses sprawled throughout the ground.
'Though, the outside noise is getting pretty annoying; what's up with all the fucking sirens?' Thought Diddy with a frown as he opened his eyes and gazed out the windows, only to spot several police and swat cars.
"Cops? Why the fuck are they here?" Muttered Diddy in confusion as he tilted his head and glanced at a corpse, only for him to snap his fingers.
"Duh, it's because I killed someone. Man, it's been so long since I've lived in modern life I forgot about that. Though, who are those three?" Said Diddy with a slight shake of his head as he glanced at the numerous cops and swat before shifting his focus to three people standing closest to him.
I don't remember anyone like them from my past life or from this life, so I couldn't help but gaze at them in confusion; there were two women and one man. The man wore a reddish suit that hugged his body and had a lightning bolt symbol on his chest; the woman with the wings wielded a golden spike-less mace similar to Ulti and wore something that reminded me of medieval armor. The final woman, who was significantly bigger than her fellow companions, was quite muscular, but other than a lasso and a dress that I imagined a princess would wear, she looked pretty normal.
"Who the fuck are they?" Muttered Diddy in confusion as he eyed the three, only to raise an eyebrow when the man started walking forward, followed by the two women.
Watching them approach me, I waited until they entered the building, yet they briefly stopped when they noticed the several corpses, causing them to all glare at me in anger, though none lashed out.
'Why are they acting like I just wiped a city? It was only a few dead people; even the Marines hardly care about the citizens.' Mused Diddy curiously as he stared at the man who glared at him with a hardened gaze.

Coming to a halt just a few meters away from the murderous villain, I gave him a look, and although I received information that he held no Quirk and was, in fact, an entirely new species, I didn't initially believe such claims, however, now that I'm staring into his eyes, I no longer doubted that information.
'Those are not the eyes of a human but a beast… No, a more accurate description would be a monster.' Thought Speedster as he stared into Diddy's beastly eyes, causing a chill to run through his body, only for him to take a deep breath.
"The building is surrounding Diddy D. Kong. You've got nowhere to escape; if you know what's best, just peacefully surrender… Or we will not hesitate to use force." Stated Speedster calmly as he eyed Diddy, only for his voice to turn stern while his eyes narrowed, causing Amazo and Bird-woman to clench their weapons.
"Hmm, yes, I can see that, but it's just a bunch of cannon fodder with guns. Cannons don't work on me, so why would weak guns? Also, who the hell are you three? You don't look like pirates." Remarked Diddy lightly as he rubbed his chin with a nod before curiously gazing at the trio, causing them to frown.
"You don't need to know who we are." Replied Amazo sternly as she glared at Diddy, who snapped his fingers before nodding.
"You're not wrong; I was just slightly curious about you three, but I have very little patience for weaklings." Said Diddy lightly with a nod as he glanced at Amazo before unwrapping his tail from the light, causing him to fall to the ground and silently land on his two feet.
The instant he landed, I gave Amazo and Bird-woman my signal, seeing as how he didn't sound like he would be surrendering; at my signal, Amazo and Bird-woman lunged forth towards Kong while I speedily dashed circles around the store, checking for any survivors, though there were none. Once I finished checking the store, which didn't even take five seconds, I returned to the fight, yet I felt my body run cold as I stared at the corpses of Amazo and Bird-woman.
Amazo had a hole where her heart used to be, and Bird-woman was cleanly cut in half vertically; their expressions were not one of pain, signifying they didn't feel anything before they died; they must not even know they died.
"Haa, boring. I want to fight some strong people." Muttered Diddy lightly as he flicked the blood off his hand before turning and glancing at the frozen Speedster, who gritted his teeth in fury.
"B-Bastard!" Yelled Speedster as he clenched his fist before powerfully pushing off the ground, leaving behind a sizeable dent in the ground.
Running circles around Kong, I moved faster than he could perceive, and just when I was about to dash toward him to punch him, I saw a flash of lightning, and the next thing I knew, a powerful darkness washed over my mind.
'Oh… I'm dead.' Thought Speedster as he glanced at his headless body, only for his mind to go silent.

"Hmm, he was decently fast for a normal human; did he perhaps eat a speed-related devil fruit? Wait, do devil fruits even exist in this world?" Muttered Diddy lightly as he glanced at the corpse of Speedster while flicking the blood off his hands, only to thoughtfully rub his chin.
While I was curious, I wasn't given time to dwell on my thoughts as I was promptly bombarded with gunfire from outside; not that they hurt me or anything; they felt like small pebbles hitting my body, but the noise was annoying.
"Tsk, annoying." Muttered Diddy lightly as he snapped his fingers, causing a bolt of lightning to arc through the air before hitting a cop, only for it to continuously arc between his attackers.
Once the gunfire came to an end, I exited the store and looked around, but other than burnt corpses, there was nothing worthy; well, there was actually a news chopper in the air, causing me to grin as I leaped into the air, swiftly approaching them.
They tried to move when they noticed me heading towards them, but it was far too late; I had long since reached the chopper by then; snatching the large camera out from the man's hand, I held it up to my face and grinned.
"Hehe, I don't know who is watching; I hope the world is, and if so, I'll only say one thing. Bring the strongest you all have to offer; I want to enjoy myself as I slaughter each and every one of you! Hahahaha!" Remarked Diddy with a feral grin as he stared into the camera broadcast live to thousands of TVs, only for him to crush the camera after ending it with chaotic laughter.
"There, hopefully, that should stir some people to make a move." Said Diddy calmly as he dropped the camera before throwing the helicopter toward the many cop cars, creating a massive explosion.
