The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

Doflamingo readily agreed, knowing full well that he had no other choice.

As intelligent as he is, he can even foresee his next task.

They stationed in countries near Dressrosa, occasionally causing trouble for Scarlett and Luther behind her.

He himself was a pawn in the game between Moriah and Luther.

He didn't want to be a pawn, but in this world, strength is paramount. Without power, one can only grovel like a dog.

After hanging up the phone, Doflamingo gazed at the azure sea and took a deep breath:

"Luther! Scarlett! Moria! Absalom! I'll remember this grudge!"

Chapter 295 The War Is About to Begin

"Hehe, Hiyori, welcome to my kingdom!"

In the Dressrosa Palace, Scarlett rose from her throne and waved to Hiyori as she entered.

She and Hiyori have a good relationship; they were good classmates when they studied management courses together.

However, the two are ultimately different.

Scarlett's expression was somewhat complicated as she looked at Hiyori, who was dressed in a kimono and had Enma's sword hanging from her waist.

Unlike Hiyori, whose talent was inherited from Kozuki Oden and Amaterasu Toki, his parents and genes were much more ordinary.

If Hiyori could reach the Admiral level through hard work, then for her, the Admiral level would be an unattainable height.

Unwilling to be inferior to others, she took the initiative to participate in the bloodline factor plan after consuming the Illusion Fruit.

She was able to possess her current strength only after incorporating the latest modifications.

But what she possesses are things that people are born with.

Even so, she felt no jealousy or envy.

Tragedies are common on the high seas, and her birth already puts her at the very top.

She shouldn't blame or envy anyone for what she doesn't have; she should rely on herself to acquire it—that's the path she chose.

If she fails or can't persevere halfway, it only proves that her capacity for tolerance is limited.

"Sister Scarlett, it's been a long time!"

When Hiyori saw Scarlett, she also put on a friendly smile.

The time she spent growing up under Luther's protection was arguably the happiest period of her life.

Although she harbored grudges, the kindness emanating from those around her, and even the vitality of her companions, had a significant impact on her.

Scarlett, Robin, Maria, Kuina, Yamato, Ace...

She will always remember the days they grew up together.

Now that she, Scarlett, and Robin have all grown up and are able to share some of Luther's work, she is content with this life.

"sit down."

Scarlett led Hiyori to sit on the sofa in the reception area, and the two chatted with smiles about the past.

Meanwhile, Kawamatsu and the others who came in with Hiyori were busy moving various equipment and installing it inside the palace.

King Riku abdicated, and Scarlett has officially become the Queen of Dressrosa.

This palace, which originally belonged to King Riku, also became her office.

Furthermore, since Doflamingo already knew her identity, there was no need for him to hide anything anymore; Dressrosa had never been a neutral force from the beginning.

"Wasn't Mr. Barrett with you?"

Scarlett asked with some curiosity, noting that there had been quite a few rumors about Barrett in the New World lately.

Barrett is a member of CP0 under Luther, and there is no attempt to hide this fact.

"Barrett-sensei... he left after I had completely taken control of Wano Country."

Hiyori didn't mention the attack on Shanks. Scarlett was entitled to know, but not everything needed to be explained in detail.

"I see."

Scarlett didn't ask any further questions; she had only mentioned it casually.

Dressrosa is currently lacking a powerful general-level figure to oversee the situation, but given Barrett's personality, she knows that a long-term presence is impossible.

“Sister Scarlett, I’ve heard about Doflamingo. I must say, you’re truly amazing.”

When asked about Doflamingo's recent incident, Hiyori spoke with a hint of admiration.

“Not at all, it was too short a time, otherwise he could have suffered even more. Doflamingo has already successfully connected with you, right?” Scarlett said with a smile.

What she said was true. If the main purpose of this was to force King Riku to abdicate, she would have had more free time to play with Doflamingo.

"It's connected. Doflamingo has entered the Kingdom of Prodens and will probably make a name for himself soon." Hiyori nodded slightly.

“The Kingdom of Prodin... this opponent is just right for Dressrosa right now,” Scarlett remarked.

“I can’t help you this time. The Kingdom of Prodens is backed by the Marcus family. Saint Maz and Father don’t have a good public relationship. He will probably be the one among the Five Elders who suppresses Father’s power,” Hiyori said calmly.

"Maz Saint...the pressure is still quite high against the country that has the Five Elders behind it."

Scarlett said she felt pressured, but her face still showed eagerness.

She has been lying low for long enough. Now that she can stand on the world stage and has worthy adversaries, how could she not be excited?

"Your Highness Hiyori, everything is ready here!"

Just then, Kawamatsu, who had finished his work, called out to him.

Inside the main hall, thanks to the efforts of He Song and others, many modern instruments have been added, which seems somewhat out of place with the previous palace decoration.

"Connect to the Holy Land!"

Under Hiyori's orders, Kawamatsu and the others immediately got back to work.

Soon, the large screen in the center of the hall lit up, showing a scene of Don Quixote's Palace inside the Holy Land.

Luther sat on the central sofa with a smile on his lips, seemingly having waited for a long time.

Amatsuki sat gracefully to one side, her gentle gaze fixed on them far away in Dressrosa.

"Father!"

"Your Majesty Luther!"

Upon seeing Luther, Scarlett and Hiyori immediately stood up and bowed to Luther on the screen.

Even Scarlett, upon meeting Luther in person, still used a respectful title.

Her face was flushed, and her eyes were glazed as she gazed at Luther on the screen, her admiration evident.

"You did a great job this time, Scarlett!"

Luther, who had just returned to the Holy Land, smiled and offered words of praise.

Doflamingo receives detailed reports every day about everything he experiences in Dressrosa.

However, he did not interfere in the middle, but simply let Doflamingo be played with.

It wasn't until Doflamingo personally killed his four top lieutenants that information about them resurfaced in Luther's mind.

Luther still acknowledged the power of the Childlike Fruit.

If you are touched by a user of the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, you will only have one way to save yourself.

Like in the original future, when Luffy's crew stormed Doflamingo's lair, they were able to directly confront Sugar, which Rude found incomprehensible.

Sugar's Playful Fruit can almost instantly kill and eliminate non-top-tier powerhouses.

If there are any few drawbacks, they are only the inability to affect top-tier Haki users and the inability of the Devil Fruit user's mind to grow.

In comparison, Scarlett's Illusion-Illusion Fruit has a higher potential; if developed to its fullest extent, it could completely influence the battlefield of top-tier powerhouses.

Even if it's far inferior to Kyoka Suigetsu from Bleach, this ability to control the five senses is never weak anywhere.

Furthermore, the stronger Scarlett is, the stronger the power of this fruit will become.

After chatting for a while, Luther brought up the main topic of the call.

Looking at Scarlett and Hiyori, Luther's lips curled up slightly, and he spoke softly:

"The most important thing about this meeting, and also a test for the two of you, is that the plan to steal the sky and switch places is about to reach its climax!"

Chapter 296 Big News!

"I understand the plan to steal the sky and change the sun!"

When Hiyori and Scarlett heard about the plan, their expressions turned serious, and they nodded earnestly.

This was a plan that began several years ago, proposed by Robin and Luther, with the entire Don Quixote family serving it.

Aside from his ultimate goal of replacing the World Government, this plan is Don Quixote's most important and core secret.

They replace historical text, spread false history, and distort the past.

The plan was carried out in secret for several years, and almost all the Poneglyphs that could be found in the four seas and the first half of the Grand Line were discovered.

It will either be altered or destroyed.

The few remaining genuine artifacts are either kept by the World Government or hidden in the New World.

Once all the historical documents of the new world are replaced, it means a complete rewriting of true history.

Aside from the world government and a select few, no one else will ever have the chance to learn about the history of 800 years ago.

As people Luther watched grow up, Hiyori and Scarlett knew even more inside information.

The historical texts were not their primary focus; they were most concerned with the historical texts on the four road signs.

After collecting all four historical texts of the road signs, you can obtain the coordinates to reach Laugh Rud by translating and analyzing them.

Currently, they already have two coordinate historical texts in their hands.

They knew that wasn't enough; the ultimate goal was to collect all four pieces.
