Chapter 91 - Chapter 92 – A Clean-Win Sabotage

After securing the Surgery‑Fruit user, Fang Yi was convinced they'd cleared half the mission. Now, it was simply a matter of escaping safely with the doctor.

"Alright then, Tiffany Palace—now you must help us see it through," Fang Yi said with a smile.

Tiffany Palace snorted coldly. Despite how smoothly things were going, she found herself feeling slighted.

"Don't sulk," Fang Yi teased. "If I succeed, you succeed too, right?"

"Let's go. I don't want to see you another second!" she barked, glaring.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?!" she snapped irritably.

"It's me," came the voice.

"Oh no—this is my brother, Lord Musgarud!" Tiffany froze.

She feared Fang Yi would kill her brother if he discovered them.

"I'm not free yet. Go back—once I'm done, I'll come find you," Tiffany said, trembling slightly.

Fang Yi silently pulled his helmet back on. The door was then burst open by Lord Musgarud, a hideous-looking Celestial Dragon, accompanied by guards.

"Little sister, what are you doing locked in here?" he demanded. Tiffany's panic was evident.

A middle-aged doctor knelt upon seeing him, and Fang Yi also dropped to one knee.

Musgarud pointedly asked Tiffany, "You were sick? Did he check on you? Don't disappoint me, or I'll feed you to the dogs!"

She argued back, and he agreed to wait outside.

Once he left, Tiffany exhaled. Fang Yi turned to the doctor:

"Our family needs treatment for a terminal illness. In return, we'll give you your freedom," he said quietly.

"And you are…?" the doctor asked.

"I'm Fang Yi, a pirate," he replied, grinning.

Shocked, the doctor introduced himself as Dini, now a slave. After assessing the sincerity in Fang Yi's eyes, he agreed: "If you whisk me away, I'll help treat your father."

Fang Yi nodded deeply. "Tiffany Palace—your part now."

She stormed off, still shaky.

Fang Yi and Dini followed behind.

Exiting the central structure, Musgarud began trailing them, suspicious and commanding subordinates to follow.

Then they regrouped at the meeting point with Buggy, Shanks, and Barrett.

"This is Dini, the Surgery‑Fruit user. He's pledged to come with us!" Fang Yi introduced him.

Tiffany chimed in: "Now that you've all gathered—give me my antidote!"

Fang Yi explained: it wasn't on him, and the real antidote was placed on her pillow before they arrived, out of precaution.

Still unconvinced, Tiffany demanded it face-to-face. Fang Yi chuckled: "Fine, here's your antidote," and tossed her a small candy-like pill.

Skeptical, she sampled it, immediately feeling less addicted to the previous taste (the "bait pill" Hammer had planted before). Her demeanor changed instantly.

Fang Yi winked: "All good now. No tricks—safe as per our deal."

Tiffany snapped one final line before storming off: "Next time I see you, I won't be so nice."

Moments later, Menimurad's guards and marines descended—led by Lord Musgarud himself—closing in on Fang Yi and his group.
