Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

"Young Master, what do you plan to do?"

Everyone looked at Doflamingo.

Doflamingo gave a cold laugh.

"Because of Naruto Uzumaki and his pirate crew, the Navy is now practically defunct."

"The people above don't know yet."

"Moreover... judging from their demeanor, they don't seem to intend to come to the New World from the seabed."

Doflamingo swirled the wine in his goblet, causing the bright red wine inside to swirl.

"I suspect they'll attack the Red Line directly... The World Government is too busy to deal with the New World right now, and the Navy is practically defunct... In other words, we have no restrictions now."

Doflamingo let out a few of his signature laughs.

He slowly stood up and looked at his retainers.

"This month, we've reaped as much wealth as possible... Soon, the whole world will change."

"So, having made a fortune, we'll leave here."

"Find a secluded island and stay there for a year or two. Before long, the world will change, but we'll still be able to live a comfortable life."

The retainers nodded secretly, and no one had any objections.

Doflamingo, a former Celestial Dragon.

With their intelligence, strength, and status.

He became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Because of his special status, he secretly had contact and trade with many pirates, including Kaido.

Moreover, because of his status, the Five Elders turned a blind eye to many things he did, and even made deals with him.

For example, human trafficking.

The Celestial Dragons, who are under the protection of the World Government, and a host of other powerful figures have made efforts to help them.

This made the Five Elders even more unhappy, but they couldn't openly suppress him.

Because, after all, Doflamingo is a Celestial Dragon.

Even though Doflamingo was still secretly involved in arms dealing, his people were spread across all the major powers in the New World.

None of the Five Elders took strong measures.

In particular, it was tantamount to tacitly approving Doflamingo's use of civilians for human experimentation.

They were all just children.

He had a top scientist under his command—Caesar.

Responsible for researching, producing, and testing artificial Devil Fruits—SMILE.

Kaido was one of the biggest buyers.

The subordinates respectfully replied, "It is up to the young master to decide."

Doflamingo grinned. "Let this country contribute again."

......

at the same time.

The New World, the second half of the Grand Line.

"Seriously, Naruto-sama!"

"How cruel you are!"

Perona wanted to tie herself to Naruto's back and fly around in Ghost Mode.

That way, you don't have to worry about hurting your own body.

But Naruto rejected the suggestion.

Perona's eyes welled up with tears of grievance.

But in the blink of an eye, she chuckled maniacally again:

"Does Naruto-sama like the feeling of having a physical body?"

"Alright, I'll reluctantly agree then. After all, I'm just a servant."

Perona sat on Naruto's shoulders and chattered incessantly the whole way.

Of course, she was in a very good mood.

"arrive."

After Naruto gave a reminder, he slowly descended.

Dressrosa.

"Like Lord Moria, this is Doflamingo's territory, which is also one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Perona held a burgundy umbrella, shielding her and Naruto's heads.

Why did you come here?

Perona was puzzled.

"Of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, only Doflamingo cannot survive."

Perona understood what she meant, blinked, and said nothing more, obediently holding the umbrella for Naruto.

After the two landed on the ground, Perona took the initiative to hook her arm around Naruto's.

The ground beneath our feet was yellow earth, and all around us were scorched yellow rocks.

It is worth mentioning that, during the flight...

Naruto casually killed a brat.

Perona was also somewhat annoyed when she saw the brat, and she took the initiative to send the ghost to attack.

Judging from the attire of his entourage, they resembled some kind of samurai.

It's just a matter of waving goodbye.

"Let's go."

Naruto started walking towards the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

"It is said that people who visit this country are captivated by several things."

"Hmph~ You really underestimate us!"

Perona seemed full of energy.

Soon, a sea of ​​flowers appeared before them.

Perona blinked. "Aside from being dark and damp... there are quite a few beautiful things here."

Then, Perona twitched her nose and said, "It smells so good!"

"It smells like delicious food!"

Immediately afterwards, Perona blocked Naruto's view.

Ahead, a group of girls were dancing energetically without ever getting tired.

"Hey! Stop right there! Give it back to me!"

Just then, a puppy rushed over, biting the toy's hand.

"Stop right there, Mario—!"

"Give me back my hand right now!"

Perona looked over and saw the doll running on the ground, but she didn't seem to be interested in it as usual.

"What a strange place."

The doll chased after the puppy, yelling, "Honestly, give it back to me! The cotton is leaking out!"

jingle--

In the midst of the chase, a young girl passed by.

However, when the girl turned her head, it was in the shape of a doll.

"How disgusting...not cute at all!"

Perona hid behind Naruto.

"What are these things?"

"Hello~!" At this moment, a doll dressed as a soldier appeared.

There were also a few invisible lines on his body.

"I'm a soldier!"

"what?"

"Have I seen you somewhere before?"

The soldier doll looked at Naruto, tilting its head, somewhat puzzled.

"Ah~"

"I remember now, I saw it in the newspaper... Oh dear!"

"Oh no, the thread is tangled, please help me."

Turning my head, on the other side, there was a family of three... a toy dad, a toy child, and a 'normal' woman following behind.

"A Devil Fruit ability?!"

As someone who also possesses the ability to give "life" to inanimate objects, Perona felt a sense of familiarity.

"good."

"Take a nap first."

Naruto nodded slightly, then raised the doll soldier's head and stared into the soldier's eyes.

hum-

A strange power appeared.

After doing all that, Naruto looked at the living toy city.

Looking at the city's signs.

Port City of Acacia

Naruto didn't go directly to Doflamingo because he didn't want Doflamingo to feel like he was about to die and want the entire kingdom to be buried with him.

Doflamingo is absolutely capable of doing something like that.

This wasn't the case in the Kingdom of Dressrosa before.

Later, Doflamingo arrived, took control of the king, amassed a vast fortune, and ultimately forced the king to take to the streets with a knife and kill people...

"I'm gone."

After saying that, Naruto slightly moved his fingers, and the toy figures within his sight shuddered, then returned to normal.

I'm hungry~

Perona pulled Naruto aside and looked at a restaurant.

"You go eat first, I'm looking for someone."

"No!"

"You have to come with me!"

Perona spoke in a very firm tone, but found that she couldn't pull Naruto up.

Seeing that this wasn't working, Perona switched to a sweet, coquettish tone.

Naruto glanced at her.

Then, he reached out his hand.

Perona didn't dodge.

The moment Naruto's hand landed on Perona.

Perona was shocked.

She felt a chill run through her body, and in the next instant, her hairstyle and clothes changed.

She transformed into a gothic maid outfit.

"what?"

"Why did you have to turn me into this?"

"Is this a reminder to be mindful of my status as a servant?"

Perona muttered something in a wronged tone.

The next second, it blinked again and spun around.

Holding the hem of her skirt, she exclaimed joyfully, "What a beautiful dress! So Naruto-sama likes this style!"

Naruto: "..."

In her presence, I felt like a greenhorn.

"Didn't you say you were looking for someone?"

Perona followed, "It smells so good, the food at this shop must be delicious!"

Perona followed Naruto like a lark, hopping and skipping along.

Naruto stopped and looked at the corner of the store.

An older man was sitting there.

The man had several scars on his face, and his eyes were tightly closed.

The future general—Fujitora (smiles).

Perona pulled Naruto to sit down beside her.

Suddenly, the blind old man Fujitora asked, "I heard there's a casino around here, do you know anything about it?"

"later."

Just then, the waiter brought the food.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, here comes the Derek lobster risotto!"

Perona was smiling, but when she saw it was a toy salesperson, her face fell again.

Fujitora then stood up.

Thank you.

Then, with his eyes closed, he walked toward the gambling table.

Before long, Perona was eating her food, too busy to say anything.

The sounds from the gambling table also drifted over.

Fujitora has good luck with bets and keeps winning.

Meanwhile, the casino's troublemakers arrived and surrounded Fujitora.

The dealer was sweating profusely and didn't know what to do.

"You're pretty strong."

"How is it?"

"Let's have a one-on-one duel to decide the winner."

Then, the scene that followed was the blind man being cheated.

He guessed right every time, but the troublemakers took advantage of his inability to see.

These people were from the Don Quixote family, and no one dared to step forward to help Fujitora.

"Since you bet on white, then of course I'll bet on black."

The roulette wheel stopped, and the look of desperation on Fujitora's face disappeared. He said calmly:

"What color?"

"It's impossible that you made a wrong bet, right? It's white."

The next instant, the spiky man stepped forward and grabbed Fujitora's hair.

"What a pity, sir, it's black!"

"The specter of pessimism!"

Perona took a bite of the shrimp and then waved her hand.

The teru teru bozu-like version of the clever ghost flew over.

"what!"

"I...I'm so ugly, I actually fooled a blind man...I'm such a failure in life."

"Damn it, who on earth dares to meddle in our business?!"

The Don Quixote family was furious.

The next second, Fujitora stood up and swung his blind cane.

Several people fell to the ground.

"Sorry, it seems I tripped a few people."

"hateful!"

These people then turned around and surrounded Fujitora again.

Perona tugged at Naruto's arm.

"Should we make a move?"

Perona wore a bewildered and adorable expression, as if she didn't know what to do.

"Arigato".

"However, I will personally send these people to hell."

As he spoke, Fujitora slowly raised his cane.

At this moment, everyone noticed that it was not a cane at all, but clearly a blade.

Clang——

Fujitora pulled out one-fifth of the blade.

The chill emanating from the blade sent a shiver down the spines of the Don Quixote family members.

The battle ended almost in a single breath.

Fujitora slowly retracted his blade.

As the speed at which the blade is sheathed slows down.

Don Quixote's family felt a strange power emerge.

My body is getting heavier and heavier.

Rumble—!!!

In the blink of an eye, the group collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful gravitational force appeared, and a large hole appeared in the ground.

All of them fell in.

Fujitora sheathed all the swords in his hands.

Out of sight, out of mind.

"There are just too many despicable people in this world that are hard to look at."

Fujitora approached Naruto and Perona's table.

Perona narrowed her eyes, her expression somewhat grave.

She is here in her true form now; if she were in ghost form, she would naturally not be afraid at all.

But then, Fujitora suddenly turned around.

"Boss, I'm sorry."

"I will compensate for all the losses incurred by the store."
