Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

"It was my duty, and I had no other choice."

"Heh, your responsibilities are really hard to understand."

Luffy said, "Why are you still concerned about our alliances? Is that really important? You admirals should be more concerned about the ordinary people."

"The union of the Sea Emperor and the Seven Warlords of the Sea will cause panic among the people. This is a predictable outcome. Mr. Straw Hat, you are a dangerous person. Your landing in any country will have an impact."

Fujitora spoke calmly, "If possible, I would rather not go to war with a sea emperor, as that would be a devastating blow to the common people."

"A devastating blow? The real panic in this country doesn't come from us. Shouldn't the Admiral be more concerned about innocent civilians? Do you even know what the civilians of this country are going through?"

Luffy grinned maliciously: "If Grandpa knew that all his colleagues were so hypocritical, he'd probably faint from anger."

"What is it?"

Fujitora sheathed the sword he had drawn. "I would like to hear the details."

Ever since he arrived in Dressrosa, he has had a lingering sense of unease.

Fujitora is a righteous Marine who cares more about ordinary people. Seeing Doflamingo's various actions here makes him suspect that Doflamingo has done something unforgivable in this country.

If this country truly harbors immense evil, then his stance may need to be reconsidered.

He joined the navy not to maintain so-called order, but to practice the benevolence and righteousness in his heart.

“Mr. Straw Hat, I will take action based on what you say.”

"Hey! Admiral Fujitora! What are you saying?!"

Doflamingo's subordinates all wore expressions of horror.

Trebol was both shocked and furious. "He's a pirate! He's the Emperor of the Sea with a bounty of 3.5 billion! You're a Marine Admiral, you should arrest him immediately!"

“That’s right! He’s here to destroy this country!” Rao G shouted as well.

This admiral is acting strangely.

Are they really their helpers?!

Fujitora turned his head slightly to face them. Although his eyes were closed, his invisible gaze made Torebolo and the others feel a sense of pressure.

"Don't forget, everyone, you are still pirates at this moment. Having the right to pardon does not mean that your nature has changed. I will make my own judgments in my actions."

"you!"

The Don Quixote family executives were furious, but dared not actually retaliate against the admiral.

Luffy was somewhat surprised, not expecting to encounter Marines like Kuzan and his crew here again.

What a naval admiral with such courage!

"It seems you're quite different from your bosses who sit in their offices and give orders."

Luffy laughed and said, "If Grandpa knew there was someone like you in the Navy, he would probably be a little more pleased, although he would still scold you for meddling."

When Garp was mentioned, Fujitora's expression remained calm, but a slightly strange look appeared on his face.

The grandfather was a naval hero, but the grandson is a maritime emperor. What's going on with this family?

"Then, Mr. Straw Hat, may you tell me?"

Fujitora steered the conversation back to the topic, "What happened in this country?"

Doflamingo's subordinates' expressions grew increasingly grim.

We can only use the young master's backup plan.

There's a reason they're here.

They were facing the Emperor of the Sea; they were lucky if they could buy even a little time.

Their real trump card is this!

granulated sugar!

"Help!"

A shrill, childish voice suddenly came from a balcony of the main building of the royal palace.

A little girl wearing a polka-dot dress suddenly fell from a height and was flailing her arms and legs as she crashed down toward the center of the plaza where Luffy and Fujitora were!

Her little face was covered in tears of terror, a sight that would make anyone feel sorry for her.

Many of Flamingo's executives used their respective abilities, and some even attacked Sugar directly.

Based on the intelligence gathered by the Donquixote Family, the Straw Hat Pirates don't seem to be the traditional kind of pirate.

This seemingly carefree pirate, who actually values ​​his comrades, is very likely to step in and catch Sugar.

The moment his skin touches sugar, the power of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit activates, turning this newly crowned Fifth Emperor into a toy to be manipulated at will!

At that time, all crises will be resolved!

They might even get a Sea Emperor toy, which would be an unprecedented collectible for the Don Quixote family!

Doflamingo's subordinates all wore expressions of delight.

They don't need an admiral!

This is the perfect script!

Doflamingo had planned this before the war even began.

"Catch me, catch me."

Sugar screamed in terror in mid-air, but a coldness and smugness that seemed out of place for her age flashed in her eyes.

Fujitora's Observation Haki also caught the surprise, and his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

He couldn't bear to see a little girl die in front of him, no matter what.

"Interesting. They actually resort to this method?"

Luffy grinned, radiating terrifying Conqueror's Haki, and black and red lightning spread throughout the Dressrosa Palace.

The air froze instantly.

The first to be hit were the sugars falling from the sky.

puff.

Before Sugar could even touch Luffy, she was so overwhelmed by the force that she collapsed limply onto the ground more than ten meters away from him, motionless and completely unconscious.

The black and red lightning ripples continued to spread, sweeping across every corner of the square.

All the Don Quixote family's officers, and even some hidden henchmen in the distance, were shaken violently as if struck on the head.

The storm of Conqueror's Hide came quickly and went quickly.

A few seconds later, the black and red lightning dissipated, but the suffocating sense of oppression still lingered in the air.

"And, like Doflamingo's Conqueror's Haki?!"

Torrepol looked terrified.

Even if you don't want to admit that this Conqueror's Haki is much stronger than Doflamingo's, and they're not even on the same level, that's the truth!

The plan has completely failed.

Not only did they fail, but Sugar's coma meant even more terrifying consequences...

hum~~~

An invisible wave, centered on the unconscious Sugar, rapidly spread throughout Dressrosa.

"granulated sugar?!"

Not only did Doflamingo not see the scene he wanted, but he also saw a scene he absolutely did not want to see, which made him extremely cold and gloomy.

A sudden and dramatic change has occurred throughout Dressrosa!

......

The entire Dressrosa was in complete chaos.

After Sugar, who possesses the power of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, fainted, all the people who had been turned into toys returned to their original state, along with their memories, and returned to their bodies.

"Look at those toys!"

"My God! They...they've turned into people?!"

"My memories... I've remembered! I was a soldier in King Riku's army!"

"Dad? You're Dad?! Weren't you sold?!"

"What on earth is going on?!"

In a corner of the arena, countless toys that originally existed as decorations or staff members twisted and changed after being swept by an invisible wave, and in a burst of light, they were restored to living humans!

The one-legged soldier, the dog toy, Mrs. Teapot, the Thunder Soldier... all turned back to normal.

At the same time, those memories that had been forcibly erased and altered because of their toy-like transformation flooded back into the minds of all the citizens of Dressrosa, as well as some pirates.

The truth about the Likud family, the atrocities of the Don Quixote family, ten years of enslavement and deception... the cruel reality shattered the false peace and joy in an instant.

"Doflamingo is a usurper!"

"It was the Don Quixote family that turned us into toys!"

"Revenge! Avenge His Majesty King Riku!"

The restored Likud army soldiers, along with a large number of enraged civilians, completely disrupted the order of the competition, and the scene spiraled out of control.

"Damn it! Something's happened to Sugar?!"

Diamanti's face turned ashen; his worst fears had come true.

The loss of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit's power means that the family's biggest secret has been exposed, and that they have lost their most effective means of controlling the people.

Doflamingo has quite a few troops in Dressrosa, especially at the Corrida arena.

"Ghost Slayer!"

A figure flew through a group of armed guards, creating a trail of wounds on their bodies that spurted blood before they collapsed to the ground.

Zoro appeared and sheathed his sword.

"You bastard!"
