With Freyja of the Frenzy pirates having just defeated Rear Admiral Hina, the Black Cage, she and Sebas took care of the remaining marines, which she had long since turned into slaves before heading deeper into the city to regroup with their Captain, who had also just finished massacring the Briss Kingdoms soldiers.

"Last one; wish there were more of you, but it was still fun." Said Diddy with a feral grin while his blood-soaked body stood atop several corpses as he looked at the dying soldier.

Having just killed the final soldier, I set my bloody staff on the ground and observed my surroundings, basking in the spectacle of the sheer chaos I'd committed. I was probably about halfway toward my destination, which was the castle or palace that most likely had been evacuated by now. However, the street from the start of the city to where I'm standing is littered with nothing but thousands of corpses, all of which were soldiers of this kingdom; I don't know exactly how many I killed, nor did I bother counting, mainly because I killed faster than I could count.

'Hmm, if I were to guess, I'd say I killed, at the very minimum, 10,000 soldiers, though a more accurate number should be between 30,000 and 35,000. Hehe, Freyja's going to be annoyed.' Mused Diddy with a smirk as he looked behind him, seeing nothing but corpse after corpse; without the city, one wouldn't even know there was a street beneath all those bodies.

While that may sound like a relatively large amount of people to kill in less than twenty or so minutes, don't forget most soldiers were practically cannon fodder before me; with just a single swing of Naga-sa, I was capable of killing several and coupled with my speed, I was able to swing several times a second. The only ones who put up any resistance were two generals, yet their strength was still insignificant; they couldn't even withstand three of my blows before collapsing dead on the ground.

Since the army had no one able to stop me, or at least stall me, I was practically mowing grass among thousands of men, and boy, was it fun; not nearly as exhilarating as fighting against a powerful opponent, but it was still very much enjoyable.

"Now then, I should go and find the royal family of this kingdom and kill them as well; however, before I do that, let's deal with the little rat." Muttered Diddy with a smirk as he snapped his head toward his right, his eyes landing on the figure of a lone woman peeking from behind a building and holding a transponder snail while trembling in fear.

Smirking, I swiftly appeared right before her, causing her to nearly scream in fright as she dropped her transponder snail, though she had quickly caught it before it touched the ground; however, other than that, she didn't move a muscle as she nervously stared at me, with her fearful eyes. I didn't immediately kill her, partly because I was confused about why she was even here; I mean, every other civilian had either run away or hidden, yet here she was, standing before me while recording me or taking pictures.

'W.E.N.P; I believe I have seen that somewhere. Wait, wasn't that on the bird I got the newspaper from?' Thought Diddy curiously as he noticed a white sash on her arm.

"U-Um, i-if it i-isn't t-too much to a-ask, c-could, I-I possibly g-get an I-Interview, w-with you, s-sir? I-I'm p-part of the W.E.N.P, a-also known as t-the World Economy News Paper." Stated the woman with a trembling voice as she warily looked at Diddy, who was still covered in blood, though even in such a deadly situation, she couldn't contain her curiosity.

Hearing her words only deepened my confusion until I gave up and started laughing, finding this whole situation amusing since even though she knew I could easily kill her, she still asked for an interview.

"Hahaha; y-you're something, aren't you, woman? You're interesting; what's your name?" Asked Diddy with a smirk as he holstered Naga-sa while eyeing the woman, whose fear only deepened from his chaotic-sounding laugh.
