(Third Person POV)
[Egghead Island]
"Dr. Vegapunk!" An assistant scientist walked up to him, "A call from Navy HQ!"
Vegapunk was on a terminal, pushing some buttons and examining a few screens.
"Huh?" He said, "Who is it?"
"Fleet-Admiral Sengoku." The scientist said
"Ah." Vegapunk said as he took the Den-Den Mushi, "Sengoku! What do you have for me?"
"Vegapunk, you fool." Sengoku said, "How could you let a fruit like that get taken by Dante?"
Vegapunk scowled, "Oi Oi, How dare you assume I casually let them steal it!!" He shouted, "I am too busy to be berated by you, Sengoku! Have you made any progress???"
"Something like that." Sengoku said, "It isn't good. Cipher Pol is going to be involved. The man who is in possession of the Fruit is a former Sleeper Agent known as Klaw."
"Klaw?" Vegapunk said, "Who is this Klaw?"
"Details are classified." Sengoku said, "He was believed dead but its confirmed he's alive. He's a rogue agent turned traitor. And he has ties to the Revolutionaries and Dragon. What kind if Fruit was it, Vegapunk? Why was Dante of all people interested in it?"
"Listen to me carefully, Sengoku." Vegapunk said, "Aside from the picture of it, you should casually tell anyone of what I am about to tell you. Thay Devil Fruit is of the Legendary Beast Zoan classification. But even among those new Zoans, this one in particular is dangerous. It has dangerous potential and if it gets in the wrong hands, I will not guarantee that there won't be disasters."
"Is it that dangerous?" Sengoku asked
"Yes!" Vegapunk said, "Even by studying it, the fruit itself was giving off a strange aura! Hell, I think that the fruit itself was activating the Paramecia Effects. One thing is for sure, it was too powerful for me to gloss over."
"You have apparently taken precautions." Sengoku said, "What kind of precautions? My men are on the lookout for the fruit. They have cornered Klaw in an island as we speak. But I doubt he would be willing to talk."
"I placed a seal on the fruit." Vegapunk said, "It should not activate even if it is consumed. There's certain conditions to be met. And when its done, the Legendary Beast will be unleashed, along with its disaster. You should be worried about that."
"We will be ready." He said
"I hope so." Vegapunk replied, "I haven't been able to get a proper countermeasure for it. So just make sure it is not consumed. If it is…."
"We'll be in trouble."

[Remote Island Where Samuel Is]
Jag tackled a group of marines as he roared, swiping his tail and creating shockwaves that shook the ground.
This happened as Smoker was avoiding Ryoma's attacks, trying not to get caught by Samuel as well. He was swinging his Jitte at Samuel who was simply dodging with ease and nearly catching Smoker with a punch.
Jag, however, charged at them with maw wide opened. The two of them jumped up to dodge, avoiding the attack.
"What's this guy's deal?!" Samuel said as he landed on the ground, "He's a nuisance."
"On that we agree." Smoker said
Jag lunged at Smoker, "RAHHH!!!"
Suddenly, Ryoma appeared next to him, swinging his sword forwards as an eruption of flames appeared. Jag toppled over, his side being cur as flames appeared on his wound.
"Aghh!!!" Jag said as he crashed down
"Stay down, iguana." Ryoma said, "You're starting to get annoying."
Smoker lunged at Ryoma, "You're open!"
Samuel caught him by the leg, his hand coated in armament, "So are you."
He slammed Smoker down to the ground but Smoker had used his power to disperse his back slightly, softening the impact. Samuel let go of him and then lunged down, trying to go for a Shigan.
Smoker immediately jumped away and saw that Pinkpunk had lunged past him.
The Rear-Admiral was still in his beast form, his entire body scorched, and he swiped his claws at Samuel. Samule easily blocked it with his forearms and pushed him away.
"Fuck off." He grumbled as he swung his leg at him
"Rankyaku"
The projectile hit him point-blank and he reeled back, his eyes whitening out. The damage he suffered was starting to get to him and he was losing control of his beast form.
"I will…." Pinkpunk managed, "Not be defeated by a criminal!!"
Ryoma appeared next to him, "Shame."
He cut Pinkpunk so fast that nobody was able to react, blood flying everywhere as a trail of violet flames appeared in the air. The Rear-Admiral collapsed to his knees as he reverted back to his human form.
"Ughh…." He managed
Samuel then hit him with a right straight, striking him right in the face, and sending him flying against a tree.
"So much for a Rear-Admiral." He said with a smirk, "He was quite weak."
Smoker appeared behind Samuel, smoke trailing him, "You bastard!"
Samuel spun around and blocked his Jitte with his forearm, "Took the words right out of my mouth!" He shouted, "I am going to make you bleed!"
Suddenly, his waist was wrapped by chains which whipped around him fast and tight.
"Shit." Samuel said as the chains tightened hard
He looked over to see Rhea holding her left arm out, chains sprouting from her hand as she had a wicked smirk on her face.
"I ain't done with you!" She exclaimed
"You should be." Samuel glared at her
Suddenly, Smoker's shoulder burst with blood as he stepped away.
"Shit!" He exclaimed, "Haki…."
Ryoma had cut him and immediately cut the chains around Samuel.
Samuel took the opportunity and kicked Smoker in the legs, his armament haki causing the Captain to buckle. Then, he followed it up with a swift Shigan to the abdomen, piercing him. The finger was coated in armament as well, causing Smoker to bleed.
"Y-You!!" Smoker said
Samuel took his finger out and followed up with a vicious high knee to the chin, causing him to jerk backwards and stumble to the ground.
"Smoker!" Rhea exclaimed
"Rankyaku: Sen!"
Samuel kicked the air to the side, sending forth a blast of air in a straight line that went so fast, the Marine Captain could not react to it. It hit her in the chest, sending her reeling back as Ryoma was already lunging at her.
"S-Shit!" Rhea said as she was cut in the waist by Ryoma
"Weak." Ryoma said simply
Rhea fell to the ground, clutching her side as blood poured out.
"Alright." Samuel said, "We should get outta here."
"Agreed." Ryoma said as he sheathed his sword,
"Its over."
