One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Tsuru ignored the triumphant Doflamingo and boarded the warship.

Her fears eventually came true.

Chapter 295 The Shackles of War

January.

They relied on the prestige left over from seizing the 'Heavenly Gold', along with the power and status of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Doflamingo, along with all the Donquixote Family's executives, began to frantically expand his influence in the first half of the Grand Line.

Many islands were marked with the Don Quixote family flag.

And few dared to challenge the prestige of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Doflamingo.

Even if they did, they wouldn't even get to see Doflamingo before being dealt with by the other executives.

People then realized that not only was Doflamingo arrogant, but the Donquixote Family he led was also not to be trifled with, making people wonder where he had recruited so many powerful individuals.

But Doflamingo was not satisfied and began to turn his attention to the New World.

Dressrosa is his next target!

As early as 900 years ago, the family that ruled the Kingdom of Dressrosa was the Donquixote family.

It wasn't until a hundred years later, when the Donquixote Family became Celestial Dragons and left the Dressrosa Kingdom, that the Riku Family became the new royal family of Dressrosa.

Now that Doflamingo has secured the position of Shichibukai, he is no longer a Celestial Dragon, and naturally he wants to reclaim the country that was 'occupied' by others.

Of course, it's not about directly seizing it by force.

Even if such a move succeeds, it will not win popular support, and it will certainly not gain the approval of the world government.

After all, the act of pirates stealing a country is the most heinous thing, especially since Dressrosa is a member state of the World Government.

Therefore, even if he becomes a Shichibukai, the World Government cannot allow him to act recklessly.

This was not included in the original transaction.

However, Doflamingo was not in a hurry. He planned to take things slowly and consolidate his base first.

As a result, the family's executives became even busier.

Another noteworthy point is that Señor Piqué followed Abel's advice and successfully deceived his wife Lucian under the pretext of a personnel transfer, taking her to a relatively stable island on the Grand Line to begin a new life.

This island is also within the Donquixote Family's sphere of influence, and as long as Doflamingo doesn't fall, he will continue to be under their protection.

So Señor was relatively at ease.

He bought a new home in the island's city and reopened a flower shop for Lucien.

He himself continued to lie and claim that he worked at the bank.

However, he has been busy with work lately, which requires him to travel frequently.

He expressed deep remorse for this.

Lucy, who was pregnant, thought that he was depressed because he couldn't be by her side, so she comforted him instead.

This made Señor increasingly uneasy, and he couldn't even imagine what it would be like when the lie was exposed.

"If only I could keep lying to her like this for the rest of my life."

Señor thought this every night.

But some things simply cannot be hidden forever.

……

"Lord Abel, there's trouble in the underground black market, and our men can't stop them."

"Well, I see."

Inside the room, in complete darkness, Abel slowly opened his eyes, ending his meditation for the day.

The family's operations are currently very large, which has led to a reduction in his daily cultivation time.

I'm very annoyed, but there's no good solution.

Even Doflamingo is preparing to recruit a few more family members to share the burden.

Fortunately, Abel also has a cheat system that can help him grow stronger quickly.

Over the course of several months, he completed a total of 7 intermediate prayer orders, earning 3 stars four times and 2 stars three times.

I gained 11000 trading points.

The system store has also been refreshed 7 times, including one quarterly limited-time discount flash sale item.

Abel purchased several items from them, two of which he happened to use to place an order.

He completed the rest of the prayer orders by relying on his family resources, which was a complete freebie and he enjoyed it immensely!

The [Venus's Broken Arm - Fake] and [Drunkard's Flat Bottle Wine Jar] that I had previously left in my system inventory also came in handy.

The former was submitted to an ordinary office worker who saved it as a bookmark.

The latter was traded to a penniless drunkard.

They all made a small profit.

So the remaining newly acquired items are as follows:
