Of course, Abel did not forget to write a 'memorandum' beforehand, so that he wouldn't forget these two people if he needed them someday.

All he needed to know was that he had Sugar turn Weevil and Miss Bakkin into toys.

With his memories from before his time travel as an anchor, he wouldn't have questions like, "Who are Weevil and Miss Bakkin?"

Then, Doflamingo led his men to Dressrosa.

They obviously couldn't wait.

Sugar's toy store is closed today.

Inside the secret space, members and executives of the Don Quixote family were seated.

The leader was naturally Doflamingo, dressed in a flamboyant manner, who even wore sunglasses in his room.

Of course, Señor Pique and Abel are equally matched.

They were all dressed in black suits and sunglasses, and didn't look like proper pirates at all.

"Torrepol, please explain the current situation and the progress of the plan."

"Leave it to me, young master, hehehehe."

Torrepol chuckled twice, then began to explain the specific situation in Dressrosa.

"So far, the plan is progressing smoothly. Most of the royal army guarding the palace under King Riku has been turned into toys by Sugar. And Monet has now successfully infiltrated the palace and become a maidservant to the princess."

"You are ready to cooperate with us on the next step of the plan at any time."

Although Doflamingo already knew beforehand, he still nodded in satisfaction after hearing it again.

Then he began to explain Sugar's Devil Fruit abilities, some of which were still unknown to the officers.

To be honest, the fact that the Devil Fruit with unknown abilities that they obtained by accident had such a terrifying effect was something that many people, including Doflamingo himself, did not expect.

Therefore, everyone's expressions were full of surprise, and deep down they were also somewhat wary.

Even though we're all from the same family, the idea that turning into toys would cause us to disappear from each other's memories is truly terrifying.

Nobody wants to try it.

This also means that Sugar's future role in the family will be that of a canary.

They are usually kept under tight protection and have very little freedom.

Doflamingo would also not allow others to have too much contact with her.

This was destined long ago.

"To ensure the plan proceeds flawlessly, I've decided to bestow the Snow-Snow Fruit upon Monet ahead of schedule as a reward for her service to the family. What do you all think?"

Doflamingo suddenly changed the subject.

Although this was somewhat against the rules, no one raised any objections.

Because Devil Fruits are something that must be digested internally first.

Now, almost all members of the family possess Devil Fruits. Excluding Lao G and Dellinger, who don't need Devil Fruits, only Abel should have one, yet he still hasn't received it.

So Doflamingo's final question was actually a way of telling Abel something.

After all, this Snow-Snow Fruit had always been this kid's backup option. Now that it had been taken away and given to someone else, and a 'newcomer' who had joined in the last two years, he naturally had to ask for their opinion.

Don't let this small matter cause unpleasantness.

Abel understood Doflamingo's thoughts, so he said straightforwardly, "I have no objection. Now, thanks to the 'fighting poison with poison' therapy, my lead poisoning has been temporarily under control and has not relapsed recently."

"But to be on the safe side, I want to find myself a Zoan-type Devil Fruit, preferably an Ancient Zoan or Mythical Zoan."

"This will not only improve and enhance my physique and resistance, but may also allow me to solve my problems once and for all by relying on the powerful vitality brought by the Zoan-type Devil Fruit."

"So I probably won't need this Snow-Snow Fruit. Giving it to Monet is the best option."

After hearing his reasoned explanation, everyone looked thoughtful.

So this is the reason why they gave up the Logia type and chose the Zoan type Devil Fruit.

It must be said that this is indeed a very bold idea.

But if you delve deeper, you'll find that it was a brilliant decision.

Furthermore, Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits are just as valuable as, and even more valuable than, Logia-type fruits.

This is essentially presenting the family with a difficult problem.

Doflamingo was also incredibly troubled, as this was the first time he had heard Abel express this idea.

Abel was very pleased that the boy was so 'sensible'.

But Zoan-type Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits... are really hard to find.

The common ones are quite common; with the family's channels and resources, it's easy to get one.

But it's obvious that Abel wouldn't even look at ordinary Zoan-type Devil Fruits.

He also looked down on them and wouldn't waste their potential.

"Alright, I understand what you mean. After we've settled things, I'll use the family's resources to help you search for a Zoan-type Mythical Beast Fruit."

"However, you need to be mentally prepared in advance about the time involved. It's not something that can be found in a few months, a year, or two."

Abel nodded. "I understand. Let it be. Maybe I'll have already eaten another Devil Fruit before then, or maybe I'll die in my sleep someday. In that case, it won't be necessary."

The more nonchalant and indifferent Abel appeared in this matter, the better the effect.

This is called strategic retreat!

In addition, there's the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads: lead poisoning.

This naturally made Doflamingo nervous and concerned.

With sunk costs rising, Doflamingo is definitely the last person who wants Abel to die from this inexplicable illness.

After reaching a consensus, the meeting continued.

The main thing is to know what everyone will do and what tasks they need to perform when the plan is launched on that day.

Secondly, there are supplementary measures for unexpected situations.

After all, a plan is just a plan, and it can never keep up with changes.

At that time, all sorts of mistakes or unexpected events may occur.

But we absolutely must not lose our composure!

Dressrosa, Doflamingo is definitely going to have it.

Therefore, no one is allowed to make mistakes or drop the ball.

What should I do?

All I can do is repeatedly remind them.

Fortunately, the plan he devised was not complicated or difficult.

Chapter 538 The World's Number One Scientist

Doflamingo doesn't want to conquer Dressrosa by force.

What he needed was a legitimate reason to take over the reins of the country from King Riku.

What he needs is a harmonious and stable country as his foundation in the new world.

He used this as a springboard to continue realizing his ambitions.

Over the years, he has progressed step by step from the North Sea to the 'paradise' of the first half of the Grand Line, and then to the New World of the second half.

Steadily and steadily expand your influence and power.

He was absolutely unwilling to be a notorious pirate.

In fact, whether he is a pirate, a Shichibukai, or the kingship he is about to obtain, or even the Celestial Dragon identity he has already abandoned, none of it matters!

All of these were the chips and stepping stones he used to realize his ultimate dream!

One Piece?

Fufufufufu!

That was never his goal, and he didn't care at all.

This is what sets him apart from most other pirates.

He's an oddball, a freak, among pirates!

……

King's Highlands.

Abel infiltrated the royal palace in Dressrosa with remarkable ease.

His task was to deliver a message to Monet and give her the Snow Fruit.

On the day of the operation, Monet not only needed to cooperate with outsiders to open the palace gates, but also needed to take the princess hostage as leverage to coerce King Riku.

Monet's original skill level was only a tiny bit, not much.

This is why, after much consideration, Doflamingo chose to give her the Snow-Snow Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit, ahead of schedule.

With this Snow-Snow Fruit, even without much time to develop it, it would be enough to deal with the palace guards and the princess.

From the shadows, Abel's shadow emerged.

Then, in the next moment, the shadow transformed back into Abel himself.

This is the movement method that Abel came up with by combining the Dark-Dark Fruit and the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, along with some of his own understanding and insights.

First, taking advantage of the fact that his shadow can ignore spatial barriers and traverse darkness, let the shadow sneak in first.

Then, using the ability of the 'Shadow Mage' and the main body to swap positions, they exchanged locations.

It instantly achieved a pseudo-teleportation over an extremely long distance!

Moreover, they are extremely elusive, making them difficult to detect.
