The person is wearing a straw hat, and starts with the power of words!

Following closely behind Bucky the Clown is another piece of news that interests Sima Di.

——《......》

......

Woof woof woof! The author is a dog thief!

Didn't I realize it's Qixi Festival today? I didn't even prepare a gift for my wife. She's pregnant and had a terrible temper all day, and now she wants to go to the movies...

Tomorrow... never mind, no flag planting. See you tomorrow!!!

98. Momonosuke appears! Nami will protect him?

—The Blackbeard Pirates have been removed from the Seven Warlords of the Sea and have declared their intention to challenge the Four Emperors; they are currently selecting their opponents!

Tsk!

Teach escaped from the Marineford War and didn't get Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

How did he manage to reunite those pirates?

And they must continue their pursuit of becoming one of the Four Emperors...

"Could this guy be eyeing us, planning to be the one to reap the benefits while we challenge Big Omega or Kaido?" Sima Di wondered.

Given Teach's cunning and scheming nature...

Most likely!

"It seems I'll have to prepare some backup plans later," Sima Di thought to himself, looking down.

Vivi and Robin had finished washing up and came to Sima Di's side.

"Tei-chan, what are you thinking about? I'm so hungry, let's go eat!"

Emperor Sima nodded indulgently.

What kind of man are you thinking about at a time like this?

The world is still a long way off.

Who knows, by then he might be able to sweep the competition.

......

Dressrosa, inside the royal palace.

Doflamingo sat high on his throne, talking on a Den Den Mushi.

“Fufufufufu—Tesoro, you’re very likely to become the target this time. I have reliable leads,” Doflamingo said with a sinister laugh.

The person he was speaking to was none other than the "Golden Emperor," Gilder.

As someone who has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds, it's quite normal for him to know Doflamingo, the underground emperor.

only......

"So what information did you get?" Tesoro asked impatiently. "I was originally going to Mary Geoise to pick up some Celestial Dragons. You've made me stay here, which is a serious loss!"

"You can even temporarily release a Celestial Dragon, Tesoro, your power has increased again." Doflamingo laughed, "Furfurfur—are you sure you want to hear this?"

"Hmm? Could there still be danger?"

"It's nothing much, just that the Straw Hat Pirates and the new Fleet Admiral Kuzan seem to be working together, and the Straw Hat Pirates' captain is the son of Dragon from the Revolutionary Army." Doflamingo said slyly, "If the Navy really intends to break away from the control of the World Government, what do you think their first step will be?"

There was silence for a few seconds.

Then came a fit of rage!

"Doflamingo! You've ruined me?!"

Regardless of whether he was the target before,

From the moment he heard this secret, he was destined to become their target!

Is this information he can hear?

"Fufufufufu—it's your own choice to ask." Doflamingo grinned.

14 I'm just trying to drag you down with me!

If he misunderstood, that would be best; otherwise...

long silence.

Tesoro asked in a deep voice, "How accurate is the intelligence?"

"Fifty percent," Doflamingo said. "I have an informant who saw Kuzan, Sakazuki, and the Straw Hat Pirates living in harmony and even working together to destroy one of my bases."

"Damn it! Damn it! You all deserve to die!" Tesoro roared furiously. "Once this trouble is resolved, Doflamingo, if you don't give me a satisfactory answer, I will definitely remove you from the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

"Kachcha—"

The Den Den Mushi was disconnected.

Doflamingo, however, was not annoyed at all; instead, he laughed maniacally.

"Fufufufufu—You want to kill me? Then let's see if you have the ability!"

immediately,

Doflamingo dialed the next number.

The first thing he said was...

"Kaido, the artificial Devil Fruit factory has been destroyed. It was the Straw Hat Pirates..."

......

After a few minutes,

Doflamingo carefully hung up the phone, then dialed again.

"BIG? OM? I have some news. Caesar, who was researching the Giant Potion for you, seems to have been killed by the Straw Hat Pirates..."

......

Doflamingo hung up the phone again and laughed triumphantly!

Want to kill him?

Then you'll pay a terrible price!

"Oh!"

The palace gates were pushed open, and a family official named "Torrebol," with a snotty nose, walked in.

"Dover, the ship transporting the children has lost contact. Should we send Buffalo to check on it?"

Ok?

Doflamingo squinted and calculated the Straw Hat Pirates' route. Had they discovered it?

"Damn it! Didn't I tell them to take a detour back? How did they still manage to find us?" Doflamingo roared.

Torrepol remained silent, clearly unaware as well.

He pondered for a few seconds with a dark expression.

Doflamingo said in a deep voice, "Send Vergo over there. If it's the Straw Hat Pirates... don't start a conflict, find a way to take those children away!"

"Yes!"

......

The Going Merry, at the bow.

Sima Di put away Captain Jack's compass and watched it point directly at the merchant ship in front of him.

He nodded with great satisfaction.

This thing is usually useless, but it can be very useful in a critical moment!

Nami glanced at the compass with longing and couldn't help but say, "Emperor, can't you use the Word Power Fruit to copy items? Can you copy this compass for me too?"

This compass is simply the ultimate tool for navigators!

Sima Di smiled and looked at Nami.

Do you think it's that easy to give it to you?

He chuckled and said, "This compass is rather troublesome. After I materialized it using Dragon Essence Language last time, it took more than half a year to recover until I met you all..."

The cost is too high; we need to increase our stakes!

What bargaining chips does Nami have?

Nami, being a clever woman, rolled her eyes at Sima Di and stopped mentioning the compass.

He then looked at the merchant ship in front of him and said, "Are all the children on board kidnapped? Then... they all deserve to die!"

The "they" here refers to the human traffickers on the ship, not the children.

"Sanji, please go and take control of the ship. Don't let them threaten the children," Nami said without turning her head.

"Hi~ Nami-san, Knight Sanji is at your service!" Sanji said excitedly from behind.
