Inside the palace, Doflamingo, draped in a pink feather coat, sat on a large chair, chuckling softly as he looked at the girl kneeling before him.
"You're begging me to forgive your father?"
"Didn't you hear the people's cries? They want to see the 'Mad King' executed!"
"Killing King Riku seems like a better option, or are you stalling for time, waiting for that arena hero to come and save you?"
"Fufufufu..."
"Only domineering power can rise above everything. With me here, you have no chance!"
As Doflamingo spoke, he gathered Haki in his right hand. As the Haki began to swirl and flow, he threw a powerful punch.
"boom!!"
The castle wall behind the girl shattered on the spot. Amidst the roar, Doflamingo threw his head back and laughed wildly. After two whole years, he had finally figured out how to use the flowing Haki!
Doflamingo was proud of his talent; only a "born king" like him could master such skills in such a short time.
When conquering this country, Doflamingo used Haki to resolve all battles except for Parasite String. The exhilarating battles even made him feel that his Haki had reached a breakthrough.
Nineteen-year-old Violet was in tears. The girl knelt on the ground, desperate to save her father's life. The enemy was too powerful; the overwhelming aura that enveloped the royal castle wiped out all the soldiers in an instant.
Doflamingo suddenly felt bored. There were no strong people in this country. In order to share his joy, he simply leaned back in his seat and dialed a Den Den Mushi.
"Calling me so soon, has Dressrosa given up on resisting?"
The Den Den Mushi's eyes turned crimson. Doflamingo secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, controlled his emotions, and responded with a cheerful smile:
"I don't care about rebels at all. The weak are born to be dominated by the strong!"
"I just wanted to share my joy with you; this is the beginning of our great undertaking."
"Fufufufu..."
"I've heard about what happened at the World Conference, Xiu, it must be you, right?"
"Don't worry, I didn't leak your information to those scumbags."
Doflamingo was somewhat surprised that the Den Den Mushi's eyes showed no emotional fluctuation.
He had to offer a lot of benefits before he learned the truth. The unknown clash of domineering forces dispersed the clouds surrounding Mary Geoise.
"Since I can leave Mary Geoise, I naturally don't care about the information you're talking about."
"There's no need to contact me about this."
Doflamingo chuckled twice more, glancing at the kneeling girl before him, and said in a boastful tone:
"I've mastered the technique you mentioned. How about that? I only spent two years learning it. With that kind of skill, I'm qualified to work with you, right?"
Two years?
The Den Den Mushi seemed to be asking a question, which made Doflamingo even happier. His "King" qualities had indeed surprised Osamu Furukawa.
"Fufufufu..."
"Besides sharing this good news, I also need your 'tech products'."
"Welcome HEART to Dresden. This is a market that is open to you without reservation, and I will unconditionally help you expand into new worlds."
"Just take me with you when you meet Kaido. I think we can do a big deal. The turmoil in Wano Country should be over soon. Do you need me to send someone to the West Blue to pick you up?"
"The navy is now under my command..."
Doflamingo was extremely proud at the end. He was no longer the pirate being hunted, but a member of the royal family and a Shichibukai who could legally plunder.
"Taking you along is fine, but I hope you won't regret it."
"Although I've only spoken with Queen once, the Beasts Pirates are clearly acting with malice."
"Fufufufu..."
"I'd like to test my strength; pirates naturally let their power speak for itself!"
Doflamingo responded confidently, stating that according to the information he had gathered, in the New World, being able to use flowing Haki was already considered a high level of skill.
He might not be a match for Kaido, but he should be able to fight and retreat without any problem.
"A test?"
"Alright, I'll contact you before I visit Wano Country."
“Send me your order and I’ll arrange it as soon as possible. HEART also accepts custom factory equipment orders; all you need to do is prepare the money.”
The Den Den Mushi's red eyes looked somewhat strange. Doflamingo assumed Furukawa Osamu was surprised by his magnanimity, chuckled a few times, and confidently replied:
Money is not a problem!
"With those 'fairies' and your 'technological products,' this country will regain the glory of Don Quixote's reign."
"I'm not interested in brilliance, just send the advance payment as soon as possible."
"Click..."
Seeing the Den Den Mushi return to normal, Doflamingo's eye twitched. He wanted to chat a little longer; discussing the techniques of Haki application was his real purpose for making the call.
Although he didn't get what he wanted, Doflamingo felt that his talent had been recognized by Osamu Furukawa!
“Violet? If I remember correctly, that seems to be your name.”
"Yes, please spare my father. This country already belongs to you..."
"what!"
Violet cried out in surprise, her body suddenly becoming unresponsive. Doflamingo flicked his fingers, manipulating the girl to walk in front of him.
Doflamingo ripped open the girl's dress, a wicked smile spreading across his face as he stared at Violet and said smugly:
“I can let your father go, but not in the way you imagine.”
"The 'Mad King's' daughter falls in love with the new king. I believe someone will write a beautiful love story for us."
“We will become one family, your father will personally officiate the wedding, and the new king’s benevolence will spread throughout the country.”
"No! Let me go!!"
Violet screamed desperately, but the more tears the girl shed, the brighter Doflamingo's smile became, as he wanted to show everyone the aura of a king.
"It is an honor for you and your daughter!"
"You should thank the king for his mercy. Now it's your turn to show your sincerity. You don't want to see your father executed in public, do you?"
...
After hanging up the phone at Spademeer's house, Osamu Furukawa was speechless. He couldn't understand Doflamingo's confidence. The Beasts Pirates were simple and brutal in their actions; they would definitely fight first and then talk.
Quinn would never share his information for free; mechanical manufacturing and modification were his forte, and agreeing to share was just an excuse.
Due to the time difference, it was already dark. Monet, still wearing her bathrobe, snuggled back into Furukawa Osamu's arms. The girl asked in a low voice, somewhat curious:
Is it about the toys?
"There is indeed a large order. There aren't many pirates left in this area, so we may have to trouble you for the next few days."
"It's no trouble at all, Master Xiu. I'm so happy to be able to help you."
Monet whispered emotionally, and the girl quickly began her training for the evening. Furukawa Osamu inexplicably thought of the "protagonist's" training time for circulating domineering energy, took a breath, and mentally complained:
"Two years? The 'protagonist' probably only took two weeks..."
"No wonder I remember this guy getting beaten up pretty badly..."
Chapter 13 "The Theft of the Kingdom - The End" (Daily Life Chapter)
In the New World, the once-isolated Wano Country has recently fallen into turmoil once again.
Nine years have passed since Kozuki Oden returned and was executed by boiling in a cauldron, and the current shogun of Wano Country, Kurozumi Orochi, has still not been able to fully rule the country.
Rebels would occasionally emerge, causing Orochi, the ruler, to suffer from insomnia. Fortunately, the Orochi Oniwabanshu ninjas were always able to complete their missions, and the last batch of rebels was successfully located.
The General's Mansion, perched high in the center of the Flower Capital, is a magnificent building that was once the residence of the Kozuki family. After Kurozumi Orochi ascended to the throne, it was not renovated, but the number of banquets increased day by day.
After joining forces with Kaido to turn Wano Country into a weapons factory, Kurozumi Orochi indulged in pleasure. If it weren't for the occasional rebellions, his remaining vigilance would have been long forgotten.
-
The giant black serpent, sitting cross-legged in the room, stretched out his massive body. While listening to his subordinates' reports, he involuntarily began to drift off into his own thoughts. Compared to the tedious political affairs, the graceful figure of the young girl was more attractive to him.
“We have tracked the movements of those samurai. They have prepared ships in Blade Port and seem to be planning to land directly on Onigashima to take down Kaido.”
The serpent captain of the Oniwabanshu, Fukurokuju, with his long, hairless head and earlobes hanging from his neck, bowed to the general above him. As a true opportunist, he continued to serve only the strong.
According to their investigation, those samurai had no chance of winning. Considering the fighting strength of the down-on-his-luck samurai, Fukurokuju felt that he could take on this mission and add another merit to his record.
"Directly land on Ghost Island?"
Kurozumi Orochi suddenly became interested and turned to ask with a strange expression. Before his subordinate could answer, he immediately laughed arrogantly.
"Hehehe!"
"Those people actually went straight to cause trouble for Kaido? Are they starving? How interesting!"
"These should be the last batch of rebels, right? Once they're all dead, I can finally rest assured and lead this country as a general."
"The remnants of the Kozuki family are truly persistent. I really want to see them die under Kaido's heat breath!"
As if he could already see the samurai reduced to charred corpses, the neckless, black charcoal-covered serpent danced with glee, eager to witness the spectacle.
"My lord, should we have Orochi's Oniwabanshu make a move beforehand? We have already obtained the signal for their gathering."
"No need, those warriors are destined to turn to ashes!"
"What's with the HEART tech product mentioned in the newspaper? A robot that works non-stop without any energy consumption? What is Quinn up to?"
Orochi suddenly stared wide-eyed and asked a question. He didn't believe such a product existed. If such a robot really existed, Kaido might not need his rule anymore, which made him somewhat apprehensive.
"That's just an advertisement in the World Economic News, sir. There's no need to worry about it."
"The Beasts Pirates did not simply enslave this country; they must have considered other things and likely possess secrets about this country."
"A secret?! How despicable!"
Kurozumi Orochi cursed under his breath in annoyance. They had failed to obtain the secrets held by the Kozuki clan, and they didn't understand why Kaido had chosen this location as his base.
Given the opponent's immense strength, there was no need for him to consider secrecy. Kaido must have his eye on some of the country's resources, not just the seastone mines, but something far more valuable.
After ascending to the throne, he had been secretly investigating, but ultimately to no avail. Now, with Queen suddenly recommending some kind of machine laborer, Orochi had a bad feeling...
Fukurokuju was also a little nervous about this. If Kaido really wanted to replace them, the group would have no chance to resist.
"Sir, should we try to gather information from other people?"
"The Beasts Pirates are probably still undergoing internal adjustments, and our actions will not affect your relationship with Kaido."
The cowardly, bullying serpent stood up nervously, pacing back and forth, muttering to himself. Finally, he wiped the sweat from his brow, bent down, and whispered the order:
"It would be best to gather information about Kaido's attitude!"
"We need to demonstrate our value. We can lower our wages and give some hints to the Beasts Pirates' executives."
"Especially that Quinn guy, I don't know what he's thinking. He doesn't even need cheap labor from Wano Country, is he crazy..."
In order to better serve Kaido, Orochi had no choice but to ruthlessly oppress the people of Wano Country. Although Fukurokuju's eyes twitched when he heard this, his sunglasses helped him hide his expression.
"I understand, sir!"
"I will get accurate intelligence before they make contact."
Orochi nodded in satisfaction, then pulled the two maids into his arms. Their soft bodies calmed his agitated emotions. Finally, he narrowed his eyes and gave them a few words of advice:
"Once those samurai die at Kaido's hands, immediately drag their bodies back to the Flower Capital!"
"I will show the remnants of the Kozuki family what the fate of those who resist will be!"
"Yes!"
After bowing in response, Fukurokuju immediately bowed and took his leave. As he left the room, one could still faintly hear Orochi's smug laughter.
"Don't blame me, this is the path you chose yourself."
Fu Lu Shou kept muttering to themselves, trying to comfort themselves.
Even if someone is a fence-sitter, sometimes they can't bear to oppress their own people.
