One Piece: Under the Throne

On West Hestro Island, seastone armor descended from the sky with a long tail of flame.

In Anthony Manor, there was only one person waiting here at this time. Luo Anthony, the leader of the Anthony family of the Mafia, had been doing a growing business in his family's weapons business over the years, which also allowed him to firmly establish himself as the leader of the fifth largest Mafia family.

But what no one knows is that Luo Anthony is only the person in charge of Wm Weapons Company on the surface. The real boss behind this company is actually Leo.

Although Luo Anthony is now the leader of the five major mafia families in the West Sea, he still hasn't forgotten who gave him his current position. Seeing Leo falling from the sky, he immediately bowed and did not stand up until the blue armor hovered in the open space in front of him.

"Brother Leo, you have worked hard all the way."

Taking off his seastone armor, Leo smiled and responded, "We are old friends, no need to be so polite. Tell me about the current situation in the underground world."

"Okay, please come with me."

After a while, the two of them sat in a luxurious study.

"Brother Leo, I am very ashamed to trouble you to come here in person for such a small matter."

"Don't be nervous, Anthony. You've done a good job. Now everyone who has returned from the Grand Line has heard about WM Weapons Company's business. This time, we can just cut off the hands of other families. But we should also completely unify the West Sea underground world. After all, the other four families are also quite annoying."

"Your will is the will of the West Sea." Luo Anthony bowed slightly and accepted the order.

"Besides this matter, do you have anything else to report to me?"

Hearing this, Luo Anthony took out a box from the safe, opened the lid, and a devil fruit appeared in front of Leo.

Leo's eyes flickered slightly, it was this fruit, interesting!

"Brother Leo, this is the spoils we got after annexing a small family. This fruit is also the fuse of this incident."

Seeing that Leo had no intention of speaking, Anthony continued, "The West Sea mafia is now divided into five major families, namely the Corleone family, the Guzman family, the John family, the Grizzel family, and our Anthony family. The Corleone family and we have divided up the underground arms business, and this incident was also caused by them."

"They want to go to war with us under the pretext of demanding this devil fruit, but in fact they are just jealous of our weapons factory in Gorudo."

Leo pondered for a while and said, "Bring the information of the other four companies."

"Okay, wait a moment." Anthony pressed the button on the table, and a young man wearing a red vest, a white shirt and a bow tie came in. Maybe he was a middle-aged man. This guy looked a little cunning, and the most special thing was the iron-blue philtrum, which left a deep impression on Leo.

Leo looked at him with a playful look. Anthony thought the boss was interested in the newcomer and took the initiative to introduce him: "Brother, this is my new subordinate named Becky. He is very nimble and has a quick mind. He is a talented person."

"Oh? Well done. The gang should promote more capable young people. By the way, Anthony, do you know what the ability of this fruit is?"

Leo suddenly opened the box and revealed the devil fruit. Anthony was confused. Didn't he want to see the information of the other four companies? Why was he interested in the devil fruit again? Although he was confused, he still cooperated and asked, "I am not well-educated and don't know the ability of this fruit."

Leo smiled slightly and put his arm around Anthony's neck: "This should be the Fortified City Fruit. Look, does its skin look like a city wall? Do you want to know what it can do?"

Anthony was a little flattered when Leo suddenly hugged his neck, and nervously expressed that he wanted to know the information about the fruit.

"This is a very useful superhuman fruit. It can create an independent space inside the body of the user. The whole person is like a castle. You can hide your subordinates inside the body. This is equivalent to you being protected by hundreds of subordinates at all times. I have seen your performance in the past two years, so do you want to become the user of this fruit?"

Before Leo could finish his words, he heard the sound of a trigger being pulled behind him.

Bang! A bullet hit the ceiling of the study. Anthony subconsciously tried to dodge when the gun went off, but Leo's hand held him firmly on the sofa.

Anthony was frightened by the sudden gunshot and sweat broke out on his face. After Leo let him go, he immediately turned around and looked at Becky.

Becky was seen holding a gun in one hand with the muzzle pointing at the ceiling, and his whole body was entangled by several streams of water and hanging in the air.

After his abilities were enhanced, Leo could control water that contained the breath of the sea at will. There were few inland countries in the world of One Piece, but islands like this one had abundant water vapor, so Leo could activate his abilities at will.

Coupled with Leo's bullet-time observation Haki, anyone who wanted to sneak attack him would be wishful thinking. From the moment Leo deliberately hugged Anthony and left his back to Bege, the other party's every move could not escape Leo's perception, and the moment he saw the Fortified Castle Fruit and Bege, Leo expected that the other party would sneak attack them.

"Damn it, you're an assassin. Becky, you betrayed my trust in you." After the shock, Anthony became a little agitated and took out his pistol to clear the door.

But Leo stopped him: "Calm down, brother, this guy can still be useful to us." After calming his men, Leo looked at Becky.

"Weakling, I'll give you two minutes. If you can't change our minds, you're doomed."

Becky knew that the other party was a Devil Fruit user, and a very powerful one at that, so he wisely explained everything clearly: "My name is Becky, and I'm a killer of the Corleone family. This time, in addition to collecting intelligence on the Anthony family, my goal is to kill their leader. Originally, my undercover work was perfect, but the moment I saw the Fortress Fruit, I became greedy. I was afraid that you would give it to leader Anthony, so I decided to act immediately."

"Good, your speech is very coherent, but you still have 1 minute and 30 seconds."

"I can be a spy and help you track down the whereabouts of the Corleone leader. No! I can bring his head to see you, and I hope the Anthony family can take me in."

"There are still 1 minutes left."

"In addition to the Corleone family, three other families also participated in this matter. Several leaders were very dissatisfied with the Anthony family, which was established not long ago. The Gorud Kingdom completely belongs to you. This behavior of eating alone made the four families decide to eliminate the Anthony family."

"15, 14, 13, 12..."

"I will tell them that I have succeeded in the assassination. Then the leaders of the several families will sit together to divide the benefits. You can catch them all in one fell swoop. If you have any other instructions, just tell me!"

The corners of Leo's mouth curled slightly, and there were still three fingers on his raised hand that had not been put away.
