At the Franky House, a bunch of members suddenly came crashing through the door startling the rest of the members including Franky…

"What are you guys doing?" Franky asked calmly, he was wearing a mask that hid his face for some reason, and beside him were two twin girls with square-shaped hair…

"Franky bro, we've got in trouble and messed with the wrong people, and they appeared to have ill intentions toward you" Spoke one of the lackeys hurriedly…

"Huh? Calm down and tell me the full story…" Franky tried to understand the situation better and someone beside him suddenly started explaining what happened

"Well, they tried to steal my money so I gave them a nice beating that's all there's to it"

"That's right Franky bro, we tried to beat him, and we…. EHHHHH! what are you doing here?" That lackey was at first nodding but he suddenly noticed that Yuki himself was the one explaining what happened and it creeped the shit out of his ass since they didn't even notice where he came from…

"Who are you? no, it doesn't matter, anyone that harms the members of my family will pay for it no matter what" Franky asked coldly while staring at Yuki before he pushed the twin girls clinging to him behind him and started approaching Yuki.

Meanwhile, the rest of the members quickly raised their guns and cannons and aimed them at Yuki before they started yelling "Don't think you can run from here, Damn pirate"

"Run?" Yuki couldn't help but smirk slightly under his mask before he said "Why would I?"

"FIRE!" All the guns and cannons were shot at him without hesitation, but to the shock of Franky and the others, the earth suddenly moved on its own and created a shield around Yuki that blocked the attacks…

"Hm? He can control Earth? Is he a devil fruit user?" Franky hesitated slightly after realizing how dangerous the man in front of him was, but Yuki's counterattack came quicker than he anticipated as he manipulated the earth and trapped all of his lackeys into it except for him.

"Let them go" Franky spoke coldly before he rushed at Yuki and threw a punch at his face and Yuki countered with a punch as well while saying with a smirk "Make me"

'Idiot, you can kiss that hand of yours goodbye, my enhanced body is tougher than steel!' Franky thought coldly, he was a cyborg, and his body was so tough that even bullets can't harm him, so he expected Yuki's hand to snap in half, and a snapping sound indeed echoed across the room.

However, everyone's pupils suddenly shrunk in disbelief while staring at the unbelievable scene in front of them…

Yuki's hand was unharmed, while Franky's mechanical fingers twisted in all kinds of unnatural ways…

"Y-Y-You… Who the hell are you?" Franky asked in shock after experiencing the abnormal toughness of Yuki's body, while the twin girls rushed to his side with tears in their eyes and asked worriedly "Big bro are you alright?"

However, Franky's focus was set on Yuki who suddenly reached out to his devil mask and slowly revealed his face…

"So handsome…" One of the twin girls was entranced by Yuki's face, his features were sharp and coupled with his buffed body, long silky white hair, and deep green eyes… How could they not be enchanted?

However, a member among Franky's lackeys suddenly froze in fear and his jaw started trembling slightly, this was Franky's right-hand man Zambai and he did his best to muster his courage and yell "FRANKY, TAKE MOZU AND KIWI AND RUN! THIS IS A WARLORD! "

The room grew eerily silent as Yuki's gaze passed faintly over Zambai before he fixed his sight on Franky and said "Nice to meet you Franky, I'm Yuki Chibana"

Franky started sweating slightly before he gave an order to the girls with his hand 'Free everyone and run, I will buy us time'

Mozu and Kiwi were shocked by this order and were hesitant to follow it since they were too loyal to Franky and wanted to fight with him, but his eye started shining in a way to tell them 'NOW!'

So, they unsheathed their swords and started using them to free the other lackeys…

'At least they can escape' Franky thought slightly before he decided to buy them as much time as possible since Yuki didn't appear to care about them and said "What's a warlord doing here?"

'Could it be possible that he's after the blueprints of Pluton?' Countless possibilities flashed through Franky's mind, but he was shocked when Yuki simply shrugged and said "Relax, I'm just here to order a ship to be built"

"Eh? EHHHHH?" the whole room was shocked and the two sisters even froze and forgot about freeing their comrades until Franky broke the silence and asked "Why didn't you say so from the start?"

"Well, you guys aren't the talkative type… Sigh, check the guy behind me, he's already trying to aim a gun at my head after he got freed"

Franky's heart grew cold as he understood at this moment that if Yuki wanted it, no one can leave this place alive so he quickly yelled at him men "Drop your weapons you guys"

"That's better, you should have done so from the start, we could have skipped all of this hassle… Anyways, how much will it cost to make me a great ship?"

"Sorry but I don't make ships anymore, you should go to the Galley-la company, I'm sure they can help you in this regard"

'Surprisingly, he's still unwilling to build me a ship despite the situation he's in, it seems like his past is still haunting him by this point…' Yuki thought calmly and he couldn't help but recall how Franky vowed to never build ships again after people kept using his strong creations to do bad things…

"Well, I can't force you… well I can but I won't, however I can make a deal with you" Yuki spoke calmly but Franky was determined "No matter what you offer me, I still won't build you a ship"

"Really? Even if I tell you that your life and your brother's life are in danger thanks to a few sketchy characters lurking around in water 7?"

Franky's face instantly grew serious and he asked Yuki with an angry tone "I don't have any brothers, you must be mistaking me for someone else..."

Seeing that Franky was still being an idiot Yuki bitch slapped him causing his mask to fly out of his face into the distance before he said "You are really getting on my nerves with your attitude and lies"

"You bastard! how dare you slap me?" Franky tried to retaliate by punching Yuki but no matter how much he tried, he simply couldn't land a single punch on him and Yuki eventually tripped him causing him to fall face first into the ground, then he tied him with some earth leaving only his head exposed and took a seat on top of him…

"Let me go you bastard!" Franky yelled while his lackeys grew vigilant but Yuki's next words made him freeze "Some people are after those old blueprints… I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, and you don't deny that you have a brother, I already know everything about you..."

"Y-You… How do you know all of this?" Franky's eyes were frozen in shock and he suddenly realized 'He could easily take them from me if he so wished, but he doesn't seem to be interested…'

After gathering his thought, Franky finally calmed down and yelled "Everyone leave, I want to hear what he has to say"

After a few arguments about his safety, the others finally decided to leave and Yuki sat calmly in front of Franky and directly said "Do you know what CP9 is?"

Franky was shocked at the mention of this and the image of his mentor that got executed instantly flashed through his eyes so he asked "Is the world government still after the blueprints?"

"It seems like you know, well I guess it's only right considering this place's proximity to Enies Lobby… You are correct in your assumption, the temptation of such an ancient weapon is too big to pass on, and they already sent their secret agents to infiltrate Galley-la since they think the blueprints are on your brother's procession… But I know that you have them"

Franky stared at Yuki's eerie eyes in shock and he felt like his very soul was exposed to them… well his body as well considering that he walks around with an open shirt while only wearing swim briefs…Now however, he couldn't help but wonder 'Is this why they call him the Enigma? How does he know all of this?'

"Don't worry, I don't care about the blueprints, however your life and that of your brother is in danger since those CP9 Agents stationed here are very strong and you won't be able to defeat them" Yuki explained calmly prompting Franky to frown and ask

"So, do you plan to help us? You are a warlord, if you oppose the world government, you will lose your position"

"You are correct, that's why I can't help you directly, however, a friend of mine will be coming here soon, I'm sure he will want help in building a new ship as well so please help him at that time, and don't worry, he will take care of those CP9 Agents for you…"

"Your friend? Who's this?" Franky asked curiously and Yuki simply smiled and said "Strawhat Luffy…"

…

After they wrapped up their conversation, Yuki left Franky a handsome sum of money as well as a blueprint for how he wanted his ship, facilities and all… Franky was slightly amazed by the details on the blueprint and Yuki simply told him that he got a master painter as one of his crewmates before he took his leave…

However, he didn't move that far from the Franky House before he noticed a man with long black hair and a white pigeon staring at him coldly…

'Hmm? Isn't this Rob Lucci, the leader of the CP9' Yuki pretended like he didn't see him and simply passed by him and continued on his way while Lucci's pigeon kept staring at him curiously…

'It seems like they are keeping an eye on me for some reason… How intriguing' Yuki thought calmly…

Meanwhile, Lucci stood frozen in place for a long time, he was very talented and knew how to judge a person's strength, and the moment his eyes saw those eerie green eyes, he knew that he wasn't this man's opponent which was a huge blow to his pride…

However, Yuki didn't care about any of this and simply met up with Kayle and Mashiro who were waiting for him not that far away from the Franky house and they started making their back to Knight pirate's ship…

…

"Luffy, what are you up to?" Yuki suddenly asked through his dimensional link and he was shocked when he heard Luffy heavily breathing and reply

"Ah, Ah, Ah, Can't talk right now, I'm in the middle of a fig… GOMU GOMU NO BAZOOKA… Tsk he predicted my attack again"

'It seems like he's fighting Enel huh… This is good' Yuki thought calmly as he prepared to teleport there once the fight ends…
