The Woven Island that was deemed as red zones by the Marines because of the high activities of the underworld organizations and gathering area of the notorious pirates in this part of West Blue becomes a red taint of color in the distance.

In the center of the Woven island where the broadcast of the execution occurred was replaced by a vast red forest.

Every tree had a pile of bones that hung in its branches, leaves, or at the bottom of the tree.

It makes the appearance eerily horrifying as the wind blows the tree's red leaves that cover the numerous piles of bones.

Pate is in the middle of the forest with the grey cloaked that donned his body and face flapping in the wind, PB was still clung in his shoulder with a lazy look in his eyes as he said "You are too high profile all this while, are you not afraid that the Marines and the World Government were going to hunt you down?"

"Nah, after finding out yesterday that I am not publicized yet in the wanted list of the Marines then there is a high probability that they know the scheme that happened in the Masagana Kingdom five years ago." Pare calmly said, he found out that the Spiral Island was sunk to the sea five years ago after killing his way into an underground informant yesterday.

This is a clear disparity between the ten years that they spent in the bubble area, Pate could only assume that the mysterious bubble is the reason behind it.

The time span inside of the bubble was much slower than the outside by two times, one day outside would be two days inside the bubble area.

They were stuck in there for five years but inside of the bubble, ten years passed by that almost drove Pate into insanity.

And one thing that he noticed, it is much easier to control his fruit power here than when he is inside the bubble. It goes to show that except for the time discrepancy, a constraint in using fruit ability is included.

'It goes to show how powerful is the creator of that bubble, it even stops his body from maturing, and after escaping in there that the accumulation of maturity occurred after he got out the big fish's stomach becoming a teenager.'

"And they don't know my interference in the mission of the Marine Captain that they dispatched to the Spiral Island, I just need to show my location to them so that I can use my other identity." Pate said as his eyes glinted while he removed the cloak that wrapped his body and threw it to the side.

In his back, three red trees with an average height of a normal tree were located and three sets of skeletons with pieces of clothing of the three pirates that lead them here on this island.

PB looked at the three skeletons with pity but shook his head as he knew that Pate hated every pirate that bloodied their hands with the lives of innocent "What identity?" PB asked.

"Being a Celestial Noble, what else it could be." Pate smiled with disdain as he remembered the faces of the two cousins that schemed together, resulting in the death of the real Pate and the demise of the villagers 'I'll start with you two, just wait for me!'

"But for now. I'll deal with those people who are much stronger, they can even fend off my Forest of Death." Pate squatted down as he put his right hand to the ground and a red sprout vine slithered through his arms until it reached his black cat tattoo, vanishing through it.

All of the red trees that grow on the island turn into normal trees as the red color of it was drained to the ground like someone was sucking all of it.

"There are still five groups of people and two of them are devil fruit users. I might as well try to warm up my body after ten years of rampaging in the bubble area. I'd like to fight hand-to-hand combat." Pate said as he put on a solemn look with a tinge of excitement in his eyes.

"Okay, but do be careful as your body has a weak constitution." PB jumps out of Pate's shoulder and climbs up at the nearby tree branches.

"Nah, don't worry hahaha. I found a way to easily offset this weak body of mine." a green aura started to ooze out of Pate's body as he closed his eyes and used the vitality to nourish his body and negate the exhaustion, pain, and fatigue.

"Lush Aura Mode" Pate declared the name of this move while he opened his eyes that became verdant green, vines like runes materialize in his open polo sleeves and ghoti pants that make him like a forest deity with his long black hair tied with a vine leaf.

In this mode, all of his attributes were doubled and his regeneration is off the charts but what is the best passive effect of this ability is the compatibility of him and the forest was tripled - that will make his Rule of Forest gain a temporary leap.

And this mode opens a powerful mode that he formulated

"Let's begin shall we?" Pate said, looking at the groups of people who emerged shortly at the covers of the trees and surrounded him in the middle.

Raffa looked at the man who was cloaked in a green aura, he felt the immense vitality in it "This is going to be much more difficult than I thought." unsheathing his long sword, readying himself to attack at any given moment "Guys, be careful!"

"Don't worry Captain! with these notorious pirates here, we can kill him in a matter of minutes." His crew in his back said but still, Raffa feels that this isn't enough.

"Bastard, you are the one who killed all of my crew! Die for me!" an angry shout reverted as a man jumped forward with an amazing speed at the back of Pate, with a gleaming dagger in his right hand the white-haired man stabbed it with precision but Pate easily evaded it to the side with a minute movement.

"Hmph, Let's see if you can dodge this!" the white-haired man's left hand flickers, and a dagger appears out of its sleeves and slashes it to Pate who doesn't have the time to dodge and can only block it with his right arm.

Red blood gushed in the air making a straight line but Pate didn't feel the pain and just kicked the open stomach of the white-haired man with all his might that pushed the attacker two meters away.

The white-haired man looked at Pate with a smirk "You are not that powerful at all, you are really going to die here!"

Pate's wound was nowhere to be seen and the torn sleeves were reattached again but Pate didn't care about the wound.

He is rating his Lush Aura Mode and after exchanging a few moves with the white-haired man he could assume that his weak body even if it is buffed to double, it's still too weak.

"Heh, to think that my crew got wiped out is because of this weak man who could control trees and heal himself faster? Hey white killer, this kid is mine!" a two meters tall man with a big ax that has the same length as he was resting on his shoulder, Mad Ox with 105 million berries.

"Do you want to die?" the white-haired man said as he licked the dagger that had the blood of Pate, White Killer with 85 million berries.

"Why fight? when we could just torture him to death after all he could heal himself. That would be fun!" a pretty red-eyed girl was sitting in the tree as she held her rifle on her shoulder, Red Devil Marga with 75 million berries.

"..." a bald man was just leaning to the side of a tree and just holding a black staff in his hand and only smiling in response to their conversation, Demon Monk with 110 million berries.

"It looks like you worry for nothing, Captain!" the crew on the side of Raffa Slasher said.

Raffa could only frown as he looked at the calm expression of Pate and he saw it open its mouth as it murmured "Lush Aura Mode is so weak, should I combine it with Blood Rage?"
