His angular face had its own shade of grey overtone that had been cast by the scanty lighting of the room and his s.h.i.+rt had for once, been properly buckled in and completely covered his wide chest.

"Sir, the lord will see you presently!" a squeaky voice rang from a dull part of the room that opened out into a wide meeting hall, with racks filled to the brim with parchments that had to be at least a generation old.

A diminutive man with a graying forehead and smoky features led the trio into the room, within which on a lavish couch sat the head of the San Juan family.

His lavish robe glinted in the yellow light of the lamp that hung from the side of the room. His pencil thin fingers ran over a crack line in the armrest and his face was well endowed with a loony expression of self pomp.

"So, little Armand, why did you immediately call this triumvirate meeting?" He enquired with a ghost of a smirk on his lips.

"Alferdo, this is to do with the guest I had introduced for the auction, the one who sat in room 4" Armand began, exhaling with joy as he beheld the white hot rage that flowed through the man's features.

"He belongs to the crew of that esteemed individual who had graced this island barely a month ago, to whom the triumvirate had delivered the mystery devil fruit. He arrived barely a week ago and immediately came to us, with what he a.s.sumed was the case of familial discord, bringing with him the head of the traitor Farren.

He then allied with us to fulfill the quota of the auction and helped allow the family to loot the Colombo motile treasury. There if his words are to be believed, then he ended the executive of the Colombo, the 'Hound' Darcy, bringing back the two Meito swords.

Further, during the auction he extravagantly bid and came through with his bids.

Accompanying him was an old man who looked like a character from the esteemed Doflamingo's official crew and a child that looked too huge to be his own. The man can be considered moderately powerful with the boy contributing nothing to the whole group." He reported, before making his way to the room corner and giving the dull headed San Juan the s.p.a.ce to contemplate another of his meaningless tirades of personal glory.

With a swinging sound, the duo where pulled out of their musings by the hasty entry of the third member of the triumvirate, an organization of alliance that had been formed by the first three heads of the families, with each successive family head being a member.

The newest entry to the room was the head of the Colombo family, and the only female within the three families. Her name was Carla Colombo, and she had been the best star of the matriarchal family.

"Armand! Brief her of the current situations while I send one of my servants to find an unruly slave that escaped his bounds." Alferdo snapped, before clapping his hands loudly and waiting impatiently for the hurrying aide to enter the room, whereupon the poor lad immediately made his way to the reclining head and listened attentively to what he had to do.

With a swift nod the boy instantly ran out of the room and hurriedly closed the door behind him.

By this time, Armand had finished his briefing and had begun looking over at the San Juan with a trace of disgust and annoyance in his eyes. A look that was, in fact mirrored in the face of the other family head in the room.

"So tell me, brats! What must be done?" Alferdo said, bravado in his tone as he sought to emulate the vibe commonly present around a wise elder who spent his time advising and nurturing the younger generation.

"I know the inn in which the fool stays currently! We shall attack the place with all of our executive officers!" Carla announced, unable to stomach the fact that her family was the only one that had lost an executive, and blinded by the impudence that the man had exhibited.

Armand immediately rose to counter her anger driven point, for usually she did not make such impulsive actions and could be counted to be one of the smartest individuals on the island with a lot of potential, her only flaw could be set to be her inexperience and loose temper.

Immediately however Armand's reb.u.t.tal was shut down by the San Juan head, who consented to the half baked suicide attempt that had been suggested.

True, it had been Armand's plan to weaken the other two families with the whetstone that was the pirate, but now it looked as if the plan to hide the appearance of Haki upon the forearm of the aforementioned vandal now stood to be a determinant to the welfare of his own family!

No more could he mention the omitted fact, for he was sure that the bone head and chili pepper would immediately attack him on the basis of hiding information and unlawful activity.

He could only close his mouth and hope that the glimpse of Haki he had seen was the limit of the pirate's abilities and he was the only one of the duo (He had quite forgotten about Sorren for he believed that a child could not amount to much..) who could harness the fickle force.

"So then, let us vote upon the actions of the trifecta, and as the rules say : if it is two to one, it must be a.s.sumed that the one seeks to hamper the actions of the whole and can thus be dealt with appropriately!" He said with mad glee.

And with that final fall of sanity, the three began plotting the demise of one Lorean who by now had gotten over the shock of the decent of his crewmate and was now chewing on a loaf of bread.
