Chapter 775 Love for Lucien
The princess, obviously in love with Leo, tells him she permits him to carry her, as her leg is injured.
Leo thinks she's being selfish again, and tells her she can heal it and walk on her own feet. She's known for being fast.
The princess is angered, and refuses to move.
Kabu smacks Leo, and tells him to just carry her and let's get out of here. He obliges reluctantly.
Kabu sighs as how dense Leo is. The princess is a kind and loving girl to everyone else, she only acts this way to Leo, but he doesn't get it.
As they leave, Jora attempts to recover to contact Doflamingo.
Doflamingo's plan includes the usages of the Heal-Heal fruit's ultimate technique, "Restoration", which costs life span of the ability user.
It could restore the SMILE factory even if something was to happen to it!
SMILE factory, Franky vs Senior Pink
Franky hits Pink with Strong Punch, and Senior slams Franky with Nyan Nyan (Meow Meow) Suplex.
The two have been exchanging these for over thirty times.
The Tontattas and Pink groupies ask the two why they aren't avoiding each other's attacks.
Franky respects Pink as a man, and wants to fight head on. He will take every move Pink dishes out straight on, and still win.
Pink moves away from Franky, and challenges him to take on his next move. Franky acknowledges, and Pink darts towards him.
As Pink slams straight into Franky, he tells him if he's still standing after taking on this final move, he'll admit defeat and take on Franky's last move.
Pink slams Franky up the wall of the tower swimming, and carries him all the way high up the sky.
Pink mutters that if he could keep flying, he could go see Lucien and their son Gimlet.
But alas, gravity will bring him down.
Pink does a Nyan Nyan Suplex in the air, and as they fall, he slams Franky into the ground with Baby Buster.
Slammed into the ground back-first, Franky is heavily damaged, machine parts are showing and sparks fly, but still manages to get up.
Pink admits defeat and stands there, ready to take Franky's final move.
As Franky rushes Pink with Franky Iron Boxing, Pink recollects his memory with Lucien...
Senior Pink (still young and slim) met Lucien on a rainy day.
She was a simple woman, pretty, but not gorgeous, with charming freckles.
She loved rain and hated pirates. She asked Pink what his occupation was, and he answered a banker...
Pink married Lucien and their son Gimlet was born.
Pink hid his identity as a pirate and worked as a Donquixote family member during the day, and a loving husband at home.
Time pass....
Lucien, in despair reports to Pink of their son's death.
One week ago after Pink disappeared, Gimlet came down with a fever.
The hospital couldn't help him. She called the bank over and over, but they didn't know who Pink was.
She screams at Pink, calling him a liar, and runs out in the rain.
Lucien was caught in a landslide, and became vegetated state.
She could no longer show expression or respond to anyone... the doctor told Pink she didn't have much to live either.
Pink blames himself and breaks down.
One day, Pink vists his wife wearing the baby clothings of his son he found.
Much to his surprise, there was a smile on Lucien's face!
From this day on, Pink started wearing his son's clothings. The public mocked him as a fool, and Donquixote family members laughed at his looks. But these clothing were worth more to him than any expensive suit could ever be, because it was the only way he could go see his wife's smile...
Back to present day, Franky knocks out Senior Pink.
Franky sees tears in Pink's eyes, and wipes them off.
He calls Pink "brother", and asks the unconscious Pink, that one day if they were ever to meet again, to have a drink with him and tell him about this woman "Lucien".
victor: Franky.
