One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

After a fierce battle that lasted for more than ten hours, the artillery fire on the sea off the island has gradually subsided.

After losing over ten thousand pirates, the pirate forces led by the Donquixote Pirates and the Wang Zhi Pirates finally succeeded in defeating the Big Mom Pirates' remaining personnel at their lair.

The Big Mom Pirates truly live up to their reputation as one of the Four Emperors, infamous throughout the New World.

Even with all key personnel absent, it still possesses extremely formidable combat power.

If Doflamingo hadn't repeatedly increased the cost of hiring pirates during the battle, the outcome of this fight might have been very different.

On the island, inside the birdcage that had stopped shrinking, the final battle was coming to an end.

In the open space in front of the tilted cake tower, Perospero, covered in blood, is struggling to fend off Doflamingo's attack.

The ground beneath his feet and the surrounding buildings, now reduced to ruins, were rapidly transforming into a vast amount of white threads. Under Doflamingo's control, these threads turned into white waves that surged toward him relentlessly.

Even the large amount of syrup he created with his ability couldn't withstand the assimilation of the awakened String-String Fruit. As soon as it flowed out of his hand, it was turned into threads and wrapped around his own body, leaving Perospero in a flurry of activity.

This damn fruit has awakened!

As the eldest son of Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors, Perospero was well aware of the terrifying power of Devil Fruit awakening.

It can be said that even a relatively useless Devil Fruit ability, once developed to the point of awakening, can absolutely generate extremely powerful strength.

His younger brother Katakuri is a good example.

Before its awakening, the special Paramecia-type Mochi Mochi Fruit's ability to boost combat power appeared extremely powerful, even with Katakuri's development of it.

However, after successful awakening, its power and attack range increase almost exponentially.

The awakening of Paramecia-type Devil Fruit abilities allows the user to assimilate their surroundings, creating a battle zone that is most advantageous to them.

And that is the situation he is facing now.

“Fufufufu, it’s time to end this, Perospero.”

Doflamingo stood in the sky, a pink cloak draped over his shoulders. He smiled and spread his arms, his ten fingers hooking the countless threads that covered the ground. The threads twisted and gathered behind him, like countless sharp tentacles, rising in rows, as if two huge white wings were slowly unfolding from behind him.

He swung his hands sharply at Perospero, and wide wings formed from silk threads behind him burst forth, shooting towards Perospero with a whooshing sound.

"A Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart! Feather Strike Line!"

"Shhhhh!"

In an instant, hundreds of sharp tentacles rose from the sea of ​​silk threads and shot towards Perospero at the center like a storm.

"Candy Barrier!"

Perospero gritted his teeth, suddenly squatted down, and pressed and pulled the ground with his right hand.

"Splash!"

A large amount of thick, dark red syrup gushed out of his hands like a fountain, quickly piling up and rising high, soon forming a candy shield wall as hard as iron in front of him.

Countless threads shot out, striking the candy shield wall with a dense, rain-like explosion, leaving white dots on its surface.

Seeing this, Doflamingo smirked and spread his fingers, reaching out to grab at Perospero from afar.

“You know this is a waste of time; this is my territory.”

As he grabbed it, the candy shield wall that Perospero had just created collapsed rapidly, turning into white threads that then coiled and contracted from the ground, forming the same sharp tentacles that shot towards Perospero.

Damn it!

Perospero's expression changed as he tried to dodge the countless threads that were obscuring his vision.

The next second, his feet, which were standing on a sea of ​​white silk threads, were completely entangled by countless threads. He was unable to move.

As countless threads shot towards him, Perospero licked his lips and shouted sharply:

"Doflamingo! You'd better think carefully about the consequences of going against Mom! My brother Katakuri won't let you get away with this!"

"Fufufufu, Katakuri? It's not even certain if he'll come back. You should think about yourself first."

Doflamingo grinned, his fingers suddenly clenching.

"Chucky!"

Threads of jet-black, imposing silk, with their sharp tips, pierced through Perospero's body, emerging from behind and impaling his slender frame in mid-air. Large amounts of blood dripped from his body.

Doflamingo flew to the dying Perospero, looking down at him with his blood-covered face, and gently curled his middle finger.

A tentacle-like thread coiled into a black spike, raised high in front of Perospero's heart.

With just a flick of Doflamingo's finger, the spike would pierce Perospero's heart, ending the life of the eldest son of one of the Four Emperors.

Doflamingo's movements finally stopped; he did not choose to kill Perospero here.

"Fufufufu, it's good to keep two cards in your hand. Charlotte's eldest son, Fufufufu, let's wait and see."

He smiled and turned his head to look at another battlefield not far away.

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of massive explosions continued to erupt as Dean, a great white shark-man resembling a savage dragon, swung his massive, dark blue fists like giant hammers, relentlessly pounding Smoothie.

The Power-Power Fruit grants Dean unparalleled physical strength, giving him godlike power. A single punch or kick can shatter the atmosphere, and even the aftershocks from a punch can shatter the surrounding terrain.

Coupled with its formidable Armament Haki, this colossal behemoth transformed into an unstoppable war machine, shattering and collapsing the earth wherever it passed, sending debris flying everywhere.

"Lingling's daughter, just surrender obediently, hehehe. As long as you agree to become my woman, I promise I won't kill you. I didn't get to taste Lingling back then, but now I'll taste her daughter. It doesn't sound too bad."

Dean chuckled wickedly, his gaping maw revealing a large expanse of Smoothie's voluptuous, snow-white flesh, her clothes torn and revealing nothing but her private parts. Smoothie was drooling with desire.

"presumptuous!"

Smoothie, who was being beaten back step by step, revealed a hint of humiliation in her eyes. She gripped her long sword tightly, her two fleshy long legs stomped two big craters in the ground, and her slender body leaped into the air, thrusting straight at Dean's face as he charged at her like a savage beast.

Dean's eyes lit up. He tilted his thick neck back and stared at Smoothie's two long, white legs spread apart. His throat bobbed, and he impatiently opened his two huge, frighteningly thick arms.

"Hehehe, come here, come quickly into Uncle Dean's arms."

"Go to hell!"

Smoothie flicked her wrist, and powerful Armament Haki covered the longsword, turning it completely black and causing it to whistle sharply through the air.

Even a wall of steel can be easily pierced by this sword.

As the black sword tip hurtled toward him, the greed in Dean's eyes vanished, and a chilling smile appeared on his gaping maw full of serrated fangs.

The ground beneath his feet exploded, and his massive body shot up dozens of meters high. He swung his two enormous arms and slammed them down on the giant cake tower that was tilting to the side.

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion rang out, and the hundred-meter-tall cake tower snapped in two, broken in half by an unimaginable, immense force. The heavy upper half, tens of meters long, immediately plummeted downwards, obscuring the entire sky above Smoothie's head.

Dean's lips curled into a cruel smile. Lightning stretched out its two giant arms, reached out and grabbed the falling massive tower, and swung it down towards Smoothie in a look of shock and rage.

"boom!"

Smoothie, suspended in mid-air beneath the mountain-sized cake tower, was like a tiny fly, struck with a deafening thud, her bones breaking instantly, blood gushing from her mouth, as she crashed to the ground like a cannonball.

Before she could struggle to her feet from the ground, a massive shadow loomed over her.

"Boom!"

The pink tower, tens of meters long, exploded with a deafening roar, kicking up clouds of dust in the birdcage and obscuring Doflamingo's vision.

As Dean's massive body crashed heavily to the ground, everything inside the birdcage fell silent.

Dean twisted his neck, looked down at the half of his hand that Smoothie had sliced ​​off, and cursed under his breath. He walked to the broken ruins and rummaged around for a while. He grabbed the unconscious Smoothie by the ankle, lifted her up, and tossed her over his shoulder. Only then did he turn to Doflamingo, who was slowly wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, Joker, quickly contact your informant and check on Linling's situation so we can decide whether to stay or leave. If Linling isn't dead, hehe, even with the World Government's support, I won't work for you."

"Fufufufu, I'll contact them right away."

Doflamingo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a snow-white silk handkerchief, tossed it aside, and raised his right hand to grab at the sky.

The birdcage that enveloped the center of Cake Island began to dissipate as he moved.

Then Doflamingo took out a special black Den Den Mushi from his pocket, glanced at it, took a deep breath, and without hesitation, began to dial.

Faced with the impending crossroads of fate, even someone as composed as him felt a surge of emotion and found it difficult to remain calm.

If Charlotte Linlin is indeed killed by Akainu's team as the Five Elders promised him, then the Donquixote Family will rise to power in the New World and replace the Charlotte Family as the new maritime overlord.

If Charlotte Linlin doesn't die, all his plans, schemes, and current actions will be in vain, and he will also face Charlotte Linlin's revenge for attacking the Big Mom Pirates.

No matter how arrogant and domineering he was, he would never think that he could rival such a monster.

Charlotte Linlin, that's someone who can stand on equal footing with a terrifying monster like Kaido.

"Pulling pulling".

"Puff puff..."

Every ring of the Den Den Mushi felt like a hammer blow to Doflamingo's heart, making him feel anxious and uncertain.

His future success or failure would be determined in that next phone call.

After a long while, finally, under the watchful eyes of Doflamingo and Dean, the Den Den Mushi clicked and was answered.

Before Doflamingo could speak, a faint voice, so low it was almost inaudible, came from the other side.

"The Navy won a great victory, the Big Mom Pirates suffered a complete defeat with heavy casualties, Big Mom was killed in battle, Katakuri escaped with serious injuries, and Edward Weevil died."

After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone without waiting for Doflamingo to ask any questions.

On the shattered ruins of Whole Cake Island, both Doflamingo and Dean heard a faint voice coming from the Den Den Mushi.

The room fell silent instantly, with only the heavy breathing of the two people remaining.

After a few minutes of silence, Doflamingo's lips began to curl upwards uncontrollably, stretching to the limit to reveal a mouthful of white teeth, and his eyes behind his glasses gleamed with excitement.

He couldn't help but slowly open his arms, his body trembling, and he opened his mouth wide, letting out a hearty laugh.

"Fufufufu, Fufufufu! As expected of you, Navy Mad Dog, World Government's loyal dog, you're really capable! You actually... you actually took down Big Mom! Fufufufu!"

Dean laughed too, his gaping maw stretching to his ears, as he carried the unconscious Smoothie and looked at Doflamingo.

"That's great, Lingling is dead. With that, our cooperation has achieved a perfect success. So, let me congratulate you in advance."

"The new Four Emperors, Lord Tenyasha."
