One Piece: World Conquest Begins with Creating a Little Empress

Char smiled slightly and spoke in a serious tone.

"Hahaha..." Stussy couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this, then looked at Char and asked, "Char, aren't you and Doflamingo allies?!"

"Heh, aren't allies just for backstabbing?"

“Stusi, you know that in this world, the only things I can trust one hundred percent are those things that bear the name Figarand…”

Char replied dismissively.

"I understand~"

After receiving a satisfactory answer from Char, Stussy walked away in her high heels, heading towards the distance to relay Char's orders to the World Government's agents.

Before long, Stussy disappeared from Xia's sight! But the beautiful 'clack, clack, clack' sound of Stussy's high heels hitting the ground lingered in the seemingly endless corridor of the Figaland villa for a long time before finally dissipating completely…

"Then what happens next..."

After dispatching Stussy to handle the important matter of recovering the Devil Fruits, Char headed towards the Figarand family's private school.

Currently at the academy, ten-year-old Robin, eight-year-old Yamato, and four-year-old Hiyori are receiving one-on-one instruction from professional teachers…

Ten-year-old Robin was already able to have academic discussions with professors; it was less that the professors were teaching Robin and more that the two of them were making progress together.

As for eight-year-old Yamato, he is currently starting to learn the most basic characters...

After all, when Yamato was still with Kaido's Beasts Pirates, no one was responsible for teaching her to read and write, and Kaido always adopted a laissez-faire approach to raising Yamato.

As for Hiyori, because she had been with Lady Toki since childhood, her foundation and basic skills were much stronger than Yamato's. However, due to her age, her strength was limited.

"good……"

Char watched from outside the window as Robin, Yamato, and Hiyori studied diligently, then nodded slightly. He then walked into another room…

Inside the room, the three little ones, Ace, Amuro, and Hathaway, all under two years old, were playing around noisily, seemingly arguing over who owned the building blocks on the floor.

"At such a young age, he already knows that everything in this world is won by the strong through force. He truly is my child..."

Char showed no anger at the actions of Ace, Hathaway, and Amuro; instead, he nodded in satisfaction! These three, including Ace who was born in the Holy Land, already possessed some of the demeanor of Celestial Dragons.

However, Char still had something to teach them...

"You three, stop!"

Char pushed open the door and walked straight to Ace, Amuro, and Hathaway.

"Father!"

As soon as Ace and the others saw Char's appearance, they immediately stopped fighting.

"It's true that you can obtain everything you want in this world through your own hands! But there's one thing you're terribly wrong about! Do you know what it is?!"

Char stood in front of the three little ones with a serious expression and spoke in a cold voice.

"Forehead……"

When Char spoke, Ace and the others were all taken aback.

The three little ones are currently only in kindergarten, so naturally they don't understand what Char is saying.

“Remember this! You are brothers. Violence and fighting are used against outsiders. Family members must unite as one…”

As Xia spoke, he sat down in front of the three little ones and said in a deep voice.

"family?!"

"brother?"

When Char spoke, Ace, Amuro, and Hathaway were all taken aback. They looked at each other, their small eyes sparkling with brilliance.

“So from today onwards, you must promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you will never lay a hand on your brothers! You must be each other’s shield…” Xia said, extending his large palm and smiling, “If you understand, place your hands on my palm.”

"Father, we understand..."

As Char finished speaking, Ace, Amuro, and Hathaway immediately placed their small, chubby hands in Char's palms.

"Yes! I believe you..."

Char clasped the three little ones' hands together and spoke with a smile.

Although Char is destined to become emperor in the future, he will not need to appoint a crown prince because he will be immortal!

Therefore, Xia's empire is destined to have only one emperor; his sons have no right to succeed him! Thus, Xia is not worried that his descendants will engage in fierce struggles over the succession, leading to fratricide…

"Father, what if someone bullies us brothers?"

At this moment, Ace looked at Char and asked in confusion.

"Needless to say? My sons..."

"If anyone dares to bully you, you don't need to hold back at all!"

"No one in this world would dare to utter a single complaint about this."

"Because you are my children, Figaland Char's children..."

"My children, remember this: your father is your strongest support!"

"In this world, no one has ever offended the Figarand family without paying a price! The Figarand family has always been one to repay every debt..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Ya suddenly revealed a ferocious expression, looked at his children, and said in a deep voice.

"Okay! We understand..."

Although Ace, Amuro, and Hathaway didn't yet understand what Char was saying...

But Char believed that his children would understand someday.

In Xia's future plans, he naturally intends to nurture his children. After all, they are Xia's greatest asset...

half year later……

The year is 1501 in the Haiyuan calendar, in the middle of the year.

Wano Country, Rabbit Bowl, Prisoner Quarry.

"Crocodile, come out here!"

The CP0 members, dressed in white suits, spoke softly about Crocodile, who had been imprisoned by Kaido for half a year.

"Um?!"

Crocodile, who had been disheveled, covered in dirt, and looking like a dead man, slowly raised his head upon hearing this. When he saw the group of CP0 members in white suits outside the cell, his expression immediately brightened, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

However, Crocodile quickly realized something. Suppressing his joy, he roared at the CP0 members, "Hurry up and unlock the cell door, and unlock these seastone handcuffs on me! You bastards..."

"..."

Despite their anger after hearing Crocodile's words, the CP0 members followed Crocodile's orders, opening the cell where Crocodile was being held and unlocking the seastone handcuffs around his neck, wrists, and ankles.

And so, the CP0 agents successfully released Crocodile from his cell.

"Did you bring anything?"

After Crocodile walked out of the cell, he reached out his hand to the group of CP0 members.

"Um?!"

Upon hearing this, the CP0 members looked somewhat confused.

"Cigars! Cigars!"

Crocodile, seeing the dazed CP0 members, couldn't help but roar.

"Uh! I brought it, I brought it..."

Upon hearing this, the CP0 members immediately presented Crocodile with cigars.

"Humph!"

Crocodile snorted, snatched the cigars the CP0 members had taken out, lit them immediately, and prepared to enjoy them.

"Inhale, exhale..."

Yes, the first thing Crocodile did after stepping out of that damned cell behind him was to take a cigar—a special-grade cigar from CP0—and puff out a cloud of smoke.

The unique flavor of the cigar melts in your mouth...

Crocodile narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly enjoying the moment.

After a long pause, Crocodile seemed to remember something. He looked coldly at the CP0 members around him and asked in a deep voice, "That Griffin guy, after a year, has he finally remembered that I was still imprisoned in Wano Country by Kaido?"

"You bunch of useless idiots! How can you be so slow! Do you even know how I spent the past year in this Wano Country prison?!"

Because both Kaido and Char were focused on dealing with Kozuki Oden, a formidable enemy, everyone forgot about Crocodile!

So much so that Crocodile was imprisoned in Udon, Wano Country, in a high-purity seastone cell for a year, completely ignored! Not even a single person brought him food; for that entire year, he fed on the rats in the mines…

Even Crocodile's cell wasn't visited by rats every day!

When Crocodile has no rats to eat, he goes hungry.

Fortunately, people in the pirate world are quite resilient! With Crocodile's strength, he could go without food for months, let alone a few days...

"Forehead……"

After listening to Crocodile's words, the CP0 members fell silent again.

"So you agreed to Orochi's demands?!"
