This can be considered a small compensation from Doflamingo.
Of course, what truly surprised everyone present was yet to come.
"Furthermore, starting today, all family resources are open to Abel, and his internal authority is equivalent to that of the highest-ranking officials."
"Baby-5, like Buffalo, was directly promoted to cadre..."
These words stunned almost everyone!
Although it was anticipated that Abel would be highly valued and rewarded upon his return.
But this is just too enviable!
The family's internal power and full access to resources, equivalent to that of the highest-ranking officials, means that Abel can now do anything with the help of his family without needing Doflamingo's prior permission.
Or rather, Doflamingo had already granted this permission; it was this right!
Originally, only a few top executives who initially served Doflamingo had this right, but now there is one more person.
Currently, they only possess rights comparable to the highest-ranking officials. Will they eventually gain a status equivalent to the highest-ranking officials?
This means that Abel is very likely to become the fifth top official.
Several people were envious, but dared not utter a single word.
Because it was the result of Abel risking his life, and it is an indisputable fact that he ultimately rescued the young master Dover.
Everyone should be grateful for this favor, otherwise the Don Quixote family would probably have disappeared by now.
In comparison, the rewards Baby-5 received were rather ordinary.
Buffalo and the others have already received their due rewards for their contributions; only Abel and Baby-5, who have just returned, are left to receive them.
That leaves only Luo, who went overseas to seek medical treatment, as someone who hasn't yet become a cadre...
I wonder what he'll think when he gets back.
Although it's highly unlikely that this guy will come back.
Although Diamanti felt somewhat uncomfortable, considering her strained and unfriendly relationship with Abel, she didn't say anything more.
It's really unnecessary to hold a grudge over something like this.
Diamanti remained silent, and Pica, who always followed Doflamingo's lead, naturally didn't care either.
In any case, the position of the top executives will never be shaken; this was the promise Dover made to them.
Abel was very surprised and immediately expressed his gratitude.
Once he gained family power equivalent to that of the highest-ranking officials, it became even easier for him to use the Don Quixote family's resources for his own personal gain.
There's no need to even make up an excuse. As long as you don't cross Doflamingo's bottom line, even if he knows you've embezzled money, Doflamingo won't care.
Instead, they'll turn a blind eye and let him vent his greed!
Doflamingo is always very generous to his own people.
After leaving, Pique strode up and delivered a chokehold to Abel.
Abel had sensed it long ago, but he pretended not to dodge, letting Pike give him a good beating.
"I thought you were really not coming back, and I was even going to postpone the wedding, but you actually came back alive!"
Abel was stunned for a moment before he remembered that Pique had indeed told him that he was getting married in three months and had invited him to be a witness.
Unexpectedly, three months passed in the blink of an eye.
"Judging from your expression, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
"How could that be? I've always remembered this! So when are you planning to do it?"
"You'd better keep this in mind. When is the wedding? Your fate is uncertain. How can I be in the mood to plan a wedding? Because of this, Lucian has been depressed these past few days. Fortunately, she understands my feelings."
"Chao! What are we waiting for? Tomorrow... No, Captain Dover is throwing a three-day feast to celebrate my return, we have to give him face."
Abel thought for a moment and said, "After three days, you go and start preparing for the wedding. Then set a date and let me know, and I will definitely be there."
"Okay, it's settled then."
"It's settled. By the way, did you tell Captain Dover about this?"
Seeing Pike hesitate and shake his head, Abel said helplessly, "Although you have your reasons for not being able to invite the family members to attend, I think it's best not to hide this matter. Tell everyone in advance, and then hold a separate banquet to celebrate when you return."
He was doing this for Pique's sake.
Otherwise, what will Doflamingo think?
What will the other cadres think?
Even though everyone knows what kind of personality Pique has, it's hard not to feel some dissatisfaction.
After thinking about it carefully, Pique still felt that Abel's consideration was more thorough.
He wasn't afraid of anyone within the family having a problem with him, but he didn't want anyone to take their anger out on Lucien.
Abel was pleased to see that Pick had finally figured it out.
Sure enough, Doflamingo was even happier when he heard that Pique was getting married in a few days.
He joined the other cadres in making all sorts of jokes and banter.
Although he couldn't attend Piqué's wedding due to some special reasons, Doflamingo and the other executives were very understanding and gave him valuable gifts.
They certainly wouldn't get angry at an ordinary woman who's 'outside the circle'.
Since Pique likes it, what objections can they possibly have?
As long as Pique remains in the family and doesn't say foolish things like wanting a peaceful life or trying to break away from the family, other minor details can be forgiven.
Thus, a grand cocktail party was held.
And the names of the main figures at the party began to spread.
At least in the North Sea, Abel was considered a celebrity.
Even though it's just a bad reputation!
The three-day festivities passed quickly.
Considering that Abel had just returned, Doflamingo did not assign him any tasks.
This allowed him to enjoy a few more days of leisure.
Then she received a call from Pique, informing her to prepare to attend Pique and Lucien's wedding.
Chapter 236 The F***ing Sea Cucumber Demon!
Señor and Lucien's wedding was very simple.
The only witnesses throughout the entire process were Abel and Baby-5.
On this day, the bride, dressed in a pure white wedding gown, was beautiful, and the groom, who had specially changed into a white suit, was also quite handsome!
The two of them were smiling so happily that Abel was deeply moved.
"We've finally come to this point. Hopefully, this time it will have a good ending."
Abel sincerely blessed them.
Much has changed compared to what should have happened.
For example, Señor has turned all the lies he told into reality, and many people will help him conceal the truth.
Furthermore, the Don Quixote family now dominates the North Sea, with no challengers remaining.
This also means that officials will not be as busy as before for the time being.
Having more free time to spend with Lucian should reduce the chances of tragedy occurring.
But problems would inevitably arise with this kind of lifestyle sooner or later, and Señor couldn't hide it forever.
At that point, their future will depend entirely on their relationship.
After attending the wedding, Abel took Baby-5 back to Gabriel Island.
He estimated that this leisurely life wouldn't last much longer.
After all, given Doflamingo's ambition, dominating the mere North Blue is only the beginning of his career.
The family will definitely shift its focus to the Grand Line next, which will undoubtedly make them even busier.
That night, Abel was alone in his room, preparing to search for new orders.
But before that, he first opened the system store to check the refresh.
Then I discovered an item I'd never seen before, which was definitely worth buying.

Abel felt that the system had seen right through him.
However, he really needs this.
Then I can practice my skills properly.
So I spent another 1000 trading points, leaving me with 2540 trading points.
Then he closed the system store and started searching for wish orders.
