Similar to how she dealt with "Rear Admiral Bennet".

She, however, does treat others who aren't not marines decently.

## History

### East Blue Story

Adelaid originally joined the Doodle Squadron on their designated vessel, handing them the brief detailing why she was present upon the boat, particularly her task at hand. She would encounter an issue with her first assignment: The interrogation of Petty Officer Lutton Laxtor. A target assigned to them by the Marines for assisting in the arrest of Ketokiri's mother: Katon. Despite his rank, he was showed considerable special treatment due to his ranking as a Fishman in the Navy. As most had their identities hidden due to the World Government' lack of accepting fishmen to enlist. He had been bound and beaten by the rest of the group. Whilst questioning him; he broke free of the belts that bound him and lunged towards them to attempt to escape as his body shifted and transformed into a hybrid panther form and began to claw and strike at them. Adelaid taunted him, mocked him, claiming he was failing his family, distracting him and causing him to attack Ketokiri disoriented by the mental dilemma presented by Adelaid, managing to barely hit him.

She would once again try to taunt him, claiming his family would see him cowering and crying like a shriveling bitch for mercy. However, her taunt fell on deaf ears as the Shark Fishmen's bloodlust had made his mind go numb briefly to the sounds of the Kuja. Seeing her words ineffective, she attempted to grapple Lutton to the ground: This was a poor decision. As he slide to the side, enraged by what he perceived as an insult to his family and began mauling Adelaid into unconsciousness with his claws. But she had the last laugh, as in her moments before unconsciousness, she managed to buy enough time for Shizuka to evade the Panther's bite as he leaped from her to try chew and rip the flesh of the Shi-Shi no Mi user. She would teeter between the warm light of life and the cold embrace of death for the remainder of the battle. She regained consciousness thanks to Ketokiri's rushed first-aid and her own stubbornness that refused to allow her to simply just die. As she awoke, covered in mauling marks, the most notable across her left arm and on her face. Her breath, shallow but heavy as her body was numb from the intense pain.

She was shook. She was inches from death, something which she had never experienced before: it frightened her. She viewed Lutton on another level as she embraced Porphirios and softly cried a few tears into his scales. She was grateful to be alive.

She stumbled out of the room; half afflicted by the fear of possibly dying again should that "Fish-Puma Monster" awaken again and free himself. Briefly hugging Ketokiri as a thanks for being her savior in her time of need. After a short reprieve, she did return to head towards the storage room for more medical supplies after asking Keto where she could find some. She, however, would become distracted lurking outside the doorway of the room Ketokiri was in, eavesdropping on his conversation with Scovell... only to be distracted listening that she didn't notice the stairs next to her. As she leaned to listen more clearly: She fell down the stairs. Then, at the top of lungs screamed aloud "OW FUCK MY ARM!" Which alerted the stylish man to slide out of his room and down the banister in order to help her get back up.

Taking his swaggerish hand, Adelaid accidentally pulled Ketokiri down and pivoted to kneel beside him on the ground with her arms up in a strongman pose. She began to laugh heartily as she fell down beside him, her body still exhausted and fatigued as she smiled almost sadistically. Shortly afterwards, the Kuja would pull herself up and ask Keto to enjoy the sea-breeze and sunlight above deck. As she, and him went above the threshold and began to talk; Adelaid mentioned her scars, how the one on her face would make look dangerous, sexy even as they laughed joked with one another for about an hour or two before Adelaid retired to the crows nest, to rest up and ensure she was 100% for when they arrived at Drogus.

She would later appear rushing towards Scovell and rudely demanding Ketokiri's location in order to find him, declaring aloud he was supposed to wake her up! Before getting flustered when her superior joked about the Kuja having a secret crush on the Drippy Rev *(With her having a tiny crush on him at the time due to being her savior.)* Before eventually finding him and Alex and boarding the vessel they intended to use, making sure to retrieve Porphirios (her pet snake) and made sure they were struck off the record books at HQ before departing, heading towards Salvok. Thus marking the birth of the **Drippy Revolutionary Squadron.**

### The Fate of Fashion - Drippy Revolutionary Squadron's Rise and Fall

During the time on the ocean whilst heading to Salvok; Adelaid would spend quite abit of time with Alex. Enjoying her time with him and Porphirios and even sharing a moment as the three of them bathed in the warm, glimmering sunlight together within the Crows Nest where Adelaid usually slept. They would spend quite a lot of moments together as they, alongside Keto, traveled to promote his fashion show that was intended to be used to gain aid for the Revolutionary Army. During this time; Adelaid and Alex would pretend to be Ketokiri's bodyguards on the island of **Nocs** before leaving him to "enjoy himself" with a woman, with Adelaid inviting Alex on a date.

Later in the evening, Adelaid would head to the Black-Market and purchase a devil fruit, completely oblivious to the fact it was the Fude Fude no Mi. After a heated argument with Ketokiri regarding the fruit's fate and some well deserved rest. Adelaid awoke and decided Alex should be its consumer and was delighted when they presented their abilities to make drawings come to life. With Alex creating the adorable **Doodle,** a small, but lovable ink dog. They had quite a happy time as they continued to organize and prepare for the Fashion Show as the two became an official couple.

Unfortunately, this happy story would not last long; as disaster dripped slowly towards them. As a frigid shadow began its move that would spell a icy funeral for someone special to Adelaid.

As, upon the day of the Fashion Show; Maximus struck. He had arrived to eliminate the remaining revolutionary in the east blue; Ketokiri. Adelaid would watch in horror over the den den mushi as the Vice Admiral impaled dozens upon dozens of citizens as he massacred them all in cold-blood before the den-den mushi cut off. As Adelaid turned to notice, much to her horror, Alex was not breathing! Her complexion was pale like snow, her body convulsed like a shivering sensation. She was Ice cold.... and despite Adelaid's efforts.... she had failed to save her and bring her back to life. Alex had died in her arms. She refused to give up even though it was hopeless, She attempted to warm the body with blankets and EVEN CPR as she distraughtly yelled, with pain and sadness in her voice that Alex HAD to wake up as she said "***we're going to paint the sky remember?".***

She was heartbroken. Someone she cherished deeply, Gone. Killed by Marine hands. She sat next to her girlfriend's corpse, it was chilled right to the bone. Adelaid had escaped reality in her mind and began to stare into space; most likely imaging that this didn't happen. Trying to repress the memory and replace it with the delusion that Alex was okay. She returned to her senses as she felt a nudge at her leg: it was Doodle holding the Fude Fude no Mi.

As she felt it drop by her feet, she grabbed the fruit; it was apart of Alex. Something that managed to survive that was apart of her. As she embraced it close to her chest and began to tear up finally accepting the reality before her: **Alex Flicker, her Girlfriend, was dead.**

It took her a few minutes before she could finally stop the tears, wiping them from her eyes as she knelt down to Doodles level; He was a creation of Alex, an embodiment of their shared dream to paint the sky together. She hesitated as she asked the drawing of the dog whether she should eat the Fude Fude no Mi. As it woofed, she glanced over to Alex's cold corpse now covered in blanket before she looked back at the fruit. In that moment; the memories she shared with Alex. From when they first met, their first time they lay together in the glimmering, warm sun. The date that changed their perspectives of one another; the developed mutual feelings of love for one another they shared. The dream they promised to achieve together.... Adelaid spoke only five words:

> 'll do it, for her"
>
> **Adelaid Python**, As she makes her resolve; taking a bite of the devil fruit.

She firmly grasped the fruit as she crunched into it with her teeth, becoming the user of the Brush Brush fruit; inheriting the Will of her beloved departed Alex, as for a brief moment in her head she heard Alex's voice. One final time. It spoke three words to her. Those words, were all words she knew. Hearing them from Alex's voice caused her to form a single tear in her eye as the words "**I love you"** echoed in Alex's voice in her head. As she was unable to hold ;Eyes fill with tears from the voice, she muttered **"Love you too Alex."** whilst she simultaneously picked up Doodle and gave him a loving embrace.
