I, a Celestial Dragon!

"For a madman, purpose should not be the root of his actions.

Pure joy is.

But you, haha, I feel your arrogance and indifference.

But you are not happy at all!"

After saying that, Gao Wen let go of Brother Ming and then shook his head gently.

"You know, Dover, I've admired some real clowns.

The reason why I use the word "admiration" to describe them is that besides being crazy, they also let me see a kind of purity!

For us, no matter how pure the thought is, it is worthy of admiration and appreciation.

Pure kindness, pure justice, pure persistence, pure courage, and so on.

Even pure madness is like this.

But you…"

Gao Wen laughed contemptuously, and pressed Mingge's shoulder again.

Facing Mingge's slightly dissatisfied and unwilling expression, Gao Wen smiled.

"You're a far cry from the real clowns I've seen, the pure insanity.

You talk about madness and cruelty, and you practice them in your life.

But you are so impure!

On the one hand, you harbor a hatred for the word betrayal.

On the other hand, you also harbor hatred for the Celestial Dragons and civilians.

You hate the civilians who once trapped you in the abyss, and you hate their disgust and alienation towards you.

You also hate the Celestial Dragons who once refused your return and at the same time sprinkled the last handful of frost on you who were already in the snow.

Of course, being described as a traitor by those you hate also makes you hate the word hate.

You...tsk tsk, your hatred is too strong, and your sense of purpose is too strong, it's not pure!

You're not a real clown!"

After he finished speaking, Gawain let go of Dover and took out two cigarettes from his pocket.

Gawain put one cigarette into his mouth skillfully and handed another one to Dover.

Looking at the tobacco without any brand or logo right in front of him, Dover gently took it.

After taking a puff of cigarette, Dover's eyes hidden under the sunglasses stared at Gawain's pupils!

"You seem to know everything about me."

He said, with a look of great certainty on his face.

At the same time, Gawain curled his lips and responded.

"I probably know you better than you know yourself."

"Haha, then you should know that the hatred you think I have is far from enough to describe my purpose and ambition!"

"But you have a purpose and ambition, and that's enough."

Gawain responded to Dover's words mercilessly, and he continued to speak to Dover with the same confident look that Dover once had.

"You may not know that I have talked about you with Musgarud, and I have also briefly mentioned your deeds when chatting with the Five Elders.

Not to mention what happened after you awakened your Conqueror's Haki, when you were put on the wanted list, everyone on the sea knew everything that happened next.

Who told you to be the famous Tian Yaksha?

But until then, hehe.

Tell me, Dover, why did you kill your father?"

"I lost my mother because of his choices!"

Dover immediately answered Gawain's question, and there was no hesitation in his eyes when he faced this question.

Doflamingo never thought of himself as a person with mental weaknesses, because after going through so many things, his personality had long been as solid as seastone due to many reasons!

After getting the answer, Gawain nodded in understanding and continued to ask Dover.

"Very good. Because of what happened to my biological mother, I have built my hatred towards my father.

After all, you are right. Everything that happened to you after you were six years old, including the loss of your mother at the age of eight, was due to all the wrong choices Huo Minggu made in the past.

From this perspective, it seems like you're doing the right thing.

Then, continue to tell me about your brother. Why did you kill your last blood relative after your father? "

"Because of betrayal!"

Mingge grinned and responded to Gao Wen with a sneer.

This time, Gawain paused for a moment, giving himself and Mingge some time and space to think.

After a brief silence, Gawain finally continued.

"Very good, there are reasons for all your actions. Your hatred for betrayal created the reason for Rosinante's death.

But...haha, are you sure what you said is correct?

Do you think that the reason you think is the real reason why you have been doing that all along?

That's not the case. You're not that kind of person. If you always do what you think is right, what can you use to make people laugh?

And if you can't make people laugh, how can you be called a clown?"

After he finished speaking, Gawain flicked the ash off his cigarette with a smile, while Dover opposite him fell into complete silence.

So, after flicking off the ash, Gawain continued speaking to Dover.

“Before this, I really thought that the reason you killed your father and brother was the two reasons you mentioned before.

But just now, after listening to what you said before, I suddenly understood another you!

People who always do the right thing are not clowns, but those who do something absolutely wrong for some reasons that may not be right are not clowns.

Perhaps you are a little worthy of the madness and hysteria implied in the name of Joker!

Just now, you told me that you wanted to destroy Marijoa, and you wanted to destroy the Celestial Dragons that Im had been taking care of like pigs.

You also have to destroy the world government's rule over the world.

Tsk tsk, a bastard like you certainly doesn’t want to destroy the world in order to revolutionize it.

You just... remember the humiliation of being harshly rejected by the Celestial Dragons.

The reason why I killed your father was because he was a celestial dragon!

The reason I killed your brother was because he was a Celestial Dragon!

If your subordinates, such as baby5 and other weird-minded guys, they will attack you with all kinds of horrible weapons.

You will simply forgive her because they are the real family in your mind!

As for your past family, perhaps you were deeply hurt by Marijoa, and that incident caused you to lose your last refuge, your mother...

You no longer consider any Celestial Dragons as family.

Consider my words carefully in comparison with your explanation.

You just don't like the Celestial Dragons, so when the right reason came up, you killed your father and brother, both former Celestial Dragons, with your own hands.

And in the future...

No matter how far you can follow me, you will never give up the opportunity to kill me!

If I fail on my way, then you are bound to deal a fatal blow to my decline.

And if I succeed...

By then, I, the last "Dragon Man", will become your only target, lunatic!"

After saying this, Gawain let go of Dover and leaned his body against a tree trunk not far away.

While lazily smoking a cigarette, Gawain examined Doflamingo.

Under the influence of sunglasses, Gawain couldn't see Dover's eyes.

But he saw that the corners of Dover's mouth were trembling slightly and frequently.

I don’t know how long he was silent, perhaps the cigarette butt in his hand burned his fingers.

After taking a deep breath, Dover nodded expectantly.

"Well said, Gao Wensheng, your words even gave me some inspiration.

For example, it made me see a side of myself that was different from what I thought I was, Fufu!

But those things are at best your analysis of me, and you haven't given me the answer you should have given me.

Come on, be merciful and tell me if I really did as you said, pointing the gun at the back of you, a celestial dragon.

Do you still have the courage to temporarily accommodate a dangerous person like me?"

"Why not?"

Facing Dover who was becoming more and more expectant, Gawain clapped his hands gently.

"Tsk tsk, you're always trying to provoke me. You've obviously decided to stay on my boat a long time ago. You even called me Gao Wensheng and brought me a suitable gift.

But in front of me, you always want to maintain your disdain and arrogance.

You are such a proud person, and that is why you hate Marijoa so deeply for having shattered all your pride.

Or maybe, you hate your father... and the fact that he shattered a life you should have been more proud of... a life that could have been the same as mine today, or even better than what I'm going to do?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain stretched out his hand and waved gently, while Mingge moved closer to Gawain with a sneer.

When they got closer, Gao Wen said softly.

“I’m too lazy to deceive anyone, so I can tell you this openly.

You are the dangerous element I threw on the boat, who stimulates the vigilance of all cadres.

Of course, you also reminded me, making me aware of your dangers at all times, allowing me to examine myself and make decisions more accurately.

But apart from this purpose, you have no special meaning to me. When necessary, I don't mind sacrificing you in exchange for something more important to me!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Ming Ge finally showed an expression of dissatisfaction. Facing Gao Wen's contemptuous eyes, Ming Ge raised his head proudly.

"Fufufufu, even I am not worthy of your attention.

Although what I have is very little, it is after all the territory of a country and more than 40% of the territory and interests of the dark world.

As long as I exist for one day, no one may see my value, but if I disappear, I guarantee that the entire ocean will fall into chaos because of me!

So, my great Gao Wensheng.

What interesting benefits do you want to exchange for someone like me? "

After saying that, the proud Mingge showed an extremely arrogant expression. Gawain could see that Dover was really proud of everything he had.

On the one hand, after losing his identity as a Celestial Dragon, Dover rose from the mud and took back the country that Don Quixote once controlled, Dressrosa!

Before the Don Quixote family became Celestial Dragons, Dressrosa was the kingdom of the Don Quixote family, and they were the kings there!

After the Don Quixote family became twenty kings, they gave up the kingdom and made Dressrosa the territory of King Riku's family.

By now, Gawain could see that Dover's emotions had always been divided regarding Dressrosa.

On the one hand, Dover was proud that he had taken back what his family had lost. Although he no longer belonged to the family and was no longer a Celestial Dragon, he took back everything that Don Quixote had through his own efforts!

On the other hand...

Dressrosa is something that the Don Quixote family disdains to master...

This fact also constantly reminds Dover that he is just copying what others have said!

Because of this, Dover sneaked into the dark world and transformed himself into a joker to stir up trouble underground.

Compared to Dressrosa, the underworld is his essence, and that is his proudest achievement!
