"Of course, he is even less interesting than you."
Doflamingo had an evil smile on his lips, and even wearing sunglasses could not hide his sharp eyes.
He stared at Ren, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts: "This era is going to go crazy. It has been silent for five years. Can people like you not be able to stand it anymore?"
"Fire Fist" Ace, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' second division, was imprisoned by the Navy.
Many newspapers are ridiculing and provoking Whitebeard, and their words are fierce and vicious. There is obviously the instruction of the Navy and the World Government behind this... So what will happen next?
Although the news of the public execution has not yet been announced, anyone with a little bit of overall perspective knows that a shocking war is about to break out.
In this era of rapid changes, no careerist will be willing to be lonely.
He believed that was the case with Lane.
"hey-hey."
Ren smiled and showed a row of white teeth, "This is a big event that can change the world structure. All forces will pay attention to it, and I am naturally no exception."
He doesn't hide his ambition.
Times create heroes, and heroes push the times forward.
Why was "Blackbeard" Marshall D. Teach able to become the Yonko in just two years? You know, Kaido and Big Mom haven't been together for decades?
As for the red hair, although he has not been used for decades, he has face...
The five old stars all want to give him face.
Blackbeard has no face, he relies on taking advantage of the chaos.
He was the biggest winner in the war, and he successfully stole the fruits of victory. He devoured most of the Whitebeard Pirates' wealth, which became a stepping stone for his ambition.
Standing on the wind, pigs can reach the sky.
Now Mr. Lei specifically targeted Blackbeard, just to let the mantis catch the cicada, leaving the oriole behind.
Ren found a lounge chair and lay down, picked up the iced Coke on the table and took a sip:
"Joker, how do you think the Marines compare to Whitebeard?"
"The situation on the battlefield is unpredictable, there are too many variables, and it is possible for someone to win or lose."
Doflamingo said ambiguous words, and his eyes were covered by his sunglasses, making it difficult to see what he was really thinking.
Ren sneered: "You really don't know?"
"Okay, ten to one!"
Seeing that he couldn't get over it, Brother Ming sneered, "Whitebeard is really old, and it's no secret that he is seriously ill.
Either Garp or Sengoku is enough to stop him. The three generals of the Navy are basically unstoppable. Moreover, the Navy has the home field advantage, but Whitebeard has already lost the captain of the fourth team, Thatch, and the captain of the second team, Fire Fist Ace.
Arrested…
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa but not a lot but the right place and right time, the Whitebeard Pirates don't take advantage of anything, how can they win by just shouting?
Renn: "..."
He is indeed a sea gangster with a vicious eye.
That's the truth.
If Straw Hat Luffy hadn't led Jinbei and Laosha and other prisoners from Impel Down City in the process, the Whitebeard Pirates wouldn't have even been able to rush to the execution platform of "Fire Fist" Ace.
On the surface, Faker and I are evenly matched, but in practice...
"What if I go to help Whitebeard?" Ren asked with a smile.
"What?!"
Doflamingo's expression changed and he exclaimed, almost jumping out of the recliner.
This monster actually wants to intervene in the war. With his strength, it will inevitably lead to serious consequences, at least the navy will have to pay a greater price.
"It still doesn't work. At least Whitebeard has a better chance of rescuing Fire Fist.
Brother Ming quickly regained his composure, shook his head, looked at him and added meaningfully, "Besides, the world government will not let the navy lose..."
"Yeah, even if I go to help, it's hard to win."
After hearing his intriguing words, Ren sighed.
Who is the overlord of the sea? There is no doubt that it must be the navy, not to mention the world government behind the navy.
The World Government has ruled the world for 800 years, and it has been overthrown long ago without any terrible trump card.
Gol D. Roger is indeed the first Pirate King, and his achievements are unprecedented. But before Roger, there were as many sea overlords as Rocks in the past 800 years. Why didn't any of them overthrow the World Government?
Even if Ren is included, the Whitebeard Pirates can only lose a little better.
Don't forget, there is a Vice Admiral over there, the candidate "White Dragon". She is so powerful now.
After offsetting Ren and Artoria, the Whitebeard Pirates are still at a huge disadvantage.
Of course, war is not a simple process of addition and subtraction. Renn still has many cards in his hand that he has not yet played. He has a surprise gift package for the navy, which will not make their life too comfortable anyway.
At least Malinfando must be beaten to a pulp to give that "white dragon" Lieutenant General some color.
"Ren, let's talk about what's going on between us," Doflamingo said.
"Um."
PY trading has started.
Just two hours later, the two sides basically reached an agreement, as follows:
The Lionheart Pirates want to return Rao G, the captured combatants, and the transport ship to the Don Quixote family.
Of course, sweet fruits and other loot will not be returned.
In exchange, Doflamingo paid a one-time payment of 1 billion Baileys in cash to the Lionheart Pirates, plus a Devil Fruit and a pair of Sea Tower Stone handcuffs!
The sea-floor stone handcuffs were added lastly by Ren as he had an idea.
Specially used to inflict insults on people, hehehehe...
It is said that the Sea Tower Stone is as hard as diamond and cannot be broken by ordinary means, so it can not only be used to imprison those with Devil Fruit abilities, but also those without the ability can be imprisoned with Sea Tower Stone handcuffs or cages.
It is precisely because it is so hard that the processing of sea floor stone is very difficult.
Don't underestimate the value of a pair of sea tower stone handcuffs. It is very difficult to make these things. They are basically priceless and have no market. The entire Don Quixote family only has a few pairs.
In fact, apart from the Navy and the World Government, probably only the Beast Pirates who control Wano can produce this thing.
Brother Ming got the handcuffs from the Beasts Pirates.
Blackmail... No, the deal is done.
Without calling his men over, Doflamingo personally brought several large boxes of Bailey, an animal-type Devil Fruit, and a box containing a pair of seastone handcuffs from the palace's treasure house.
After confirming that everything was put away, the smile on Ren's face was brighter than the sunshine in Dressrosa:
"Hahahaha...please cooperate! Joker, my dear friend, I will always remember you!"
He almost shed tears when he thought that the two of them just met by chance and the other party was willing to generously support the Lion Heart Pirates...
Brother, I am determined to be your friend!
Brother Ming: "..."
Resist the urge to (╯°Д°)╯︵┴┴.
He was disgusted by the moved look on Ren's face.
He swore that he had never seen such a shameless person.
He is also a tycoon, but in comparison, Marshall D. Teach is nothing, and he is not even worthy to carry Francis D. Lane's shoes.
He now somewhat believes that the so-called "D" clan may really be the natural enemies of God. Even he, a former Tianlong, was poisoned...
“A pleasure to work with.”
Brother Ming resisted the urge to kill, his face was as cloudy as the weather on the Grand Route, "You'd better not remember me!"
He doesn't want to be blackmailed anymore.
"Hahahaha, friend, don't be so outspoken."
Ren put his arm around Tianyaksha's shoulders, "I think we can have a more in-depth cooperation. Unlike this one-time transaction, I guarantee that you will not suffer a loss."
"oh?"
Doflamingo took off his stupid hand calmly, with a more cautious expression, "What kind of cooperation method?"
If he wasn't here for blackmail, he wouldn't mind having an ally with abnormal strength, even if the two sides were just a plastic brotherhood.
"Friend, I have a plan and I need your cooperation..."
As the night wore on, the conversation continued, and the real collaboration began.
There is a reason why Ren didn't kill Doflamingo.
Because with the few people under his command, they cannot even control the entire Kingdom of Dressrosa, let alone annex the Don Quixote family's network of influence all over the world.
If Doflamingo falls, most of his network of connections and businesses under his command will fall apart. In the end, he will only benefit others in vain, and he will not get much benefit.
Moreover, he is about to go to the first half of the Grand Line to stare at Blackbeard and participate in the war on the top... He really can't spare much time and energy for farming and development at the moment.
Everything will wait until the peak game is over, so cooperation is the best option.
"Hahahaha...Joker, happy cooperation, let's turn this world upside down together!"
I don’t know what the two talked about, but in the middle of the night, Ren and Doflamingo’s arrogant laughter, which was comparable to the howling of ghosts and wolves, resounded throughout the King’s Heights, alarming many people.
"..."
Because they were worried, Diamanti, Serca, Toporel, Delinger and other cadres of the Don Quixote family who had been staying up all night watching outside the swimming pool couldn't help but look at each other in shock when they heard their young master's hearty and wanton laughter.
It sounds like they had a great time chatting...
Only Violet's eyes were dark. Originally, after seeing that Ren was strong enough to kill Dover, she had some ideas.
No one wants to be a princess in distress. In order to save the Kingdom of Dressrosa, she is even ready to sacrifice her beauty and recommend herself as a bed mat, as long as he agrees to help...
Now when she heard the two people's extremely arrogant and evil laughter, which was like an old man's laughter, her heart felt cold.
Huh, she looks up to someone.
He is indeed a greedy, lustful, despicable and shameless villain.
Even if he can be encouraged to help kill Dover, there is a high probability that he will end up chasing the tiger to devour the wolf, and the kingdom will be occupied by another group of villains.
'Patience, patience...'
Princess Violet had to suppress her thoughts and hide her little thoughts.
The Lionheart Pirates are not kind people, so she should continue to wait...
………
The Lionheart Pirates plan to stay in Dressrosa for four days.
In the following time, Ren negotiated with Doflamingo at night to discuss specific cooperation matters, and during the day, he waved money and took the crew to spend time in the kingdom, eating, drinking and having fun.
Dressrosa is now very prosperous and lively.
"Hey, look, the skirts in this store are of good style."
"Dear, I want this jade ring, buy it for me..."
On the Avenue of Lovers, people are full of laughter and laughter. The hospitable girls show off their graceful dancing postures in the moving music. The gentlemen who have pairs of snow-white plump legs swaying in the sun cannot take their eyes away...
Anyone who comes to Dressrosa for the first time will be amazed by the scenery here. The food, clothing, culture, and dance all show exotic beauty. Even the architectural style is unique and has a strong sense of history.
Special delicacies, bullfighting arenas, and a sea of golden sunflowers are all highlights that attract tourists.
But the most amazing thing is undoubtedly this country’s unique feature – toys!
These toys that are alive, can naturally integrate into the town, and live peacefully with people are the foundation of the prosperity of the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Toys are the best free labor force in the world. They do not need to be paid, do not need to rest, and do not need to eat or sleep... The toys work silently in this way, supporting the prosperity of this country.
Renn played here for two days and had to admit Doflamingo's skill.
Under his control and operation, the Kingdom of Dressrosa is now an entertainment destination consisting of food + resorts, carnivals, handsome men and beauties, gladiatorial arenas, etc.
It is undeniable that the scene here is like a burning fire cooking oil, and it is far more prosperous than during the time of King Liku.
On the surface, it looks like paradise on earth.
But behind the scenes, haha, I don’t know how much filth and filth is buried.
Because the toys here were once human beings, but they were turned into toys by the childlike fruit of sugar.
These include rebels, navy, pirates, and even people from the CP department of the World Government... I don't know how many unlucky people were turned into toys here, and then were forgotten by the world.
Facts have proved that Ren is not a savior and he has no intention of caring about it.
The person who gave birth to this evil is none other than the world government.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It was they who established the Shichibukai system regardless of the life and death of civilians. Otherwise, Doflamingo would have been an upright thief and developed step by step.
Is this the case today?
Let the world government that claims to be a god reap its consequences, they will pay the price.
As for Brother Ming, he will take advantage of it first. Anyway, in a few years, Trafalgar Law will bring the Straw Hats here to cause trouble...
Of course, the atmosphere in Dressrosa these days is a bit off.
The specific manifestations are that public security has become worse, more people are whispering or arguing and fighting, and the crime rate has increased slightly.
This situation occurred, of course, because the "Dockside Incident" began to ferment and the news was completely leaked.
"Hey, have you heard? His Majesty the King was defeated and almost killed."
"How is this possible? Master Doflamingo is the King of the Shichibukai... Which of the four emperors took action?"
"It's the captain of the Lionheart Pirates, the great swordsman Ren! He easily defeated Tenyasha!"
"That's right, and it kills instantly with one sword. You can go and see. There is a several kilometers long ravine over there in the dock area, which was cut by Francis D. Lane with his sword!"
Such discussions are filling the streets and alleys, and they are becoming more and more intense.
………
Commercial Street Center.
On the rooftop of the highest restaurant, the sun shines brightly.
There was a hint of gloom on Diamanti's face. He stood beside Doflamingo and said worriedly:
"Following your instructions, we did not block the news and even contributed to it behind the scenes... But Dover, is this really okay? This is a huge blow to your prestige."
They originally wanted to block the news of the young master's defeat and even arrest witnesses in the suburbs to avoid any negative impact, but in the end they received the opposite order.
Never underestimate public opinion and reputation.
If a big pirate fails frequently, his influence will inevitably be severely reduced.
If nothing else, at least no one would be willing to defect to him.
What's more serious will even make former enemies, hungry wolves who are watching in secret, jump out to bite people, beat up drowned dogs, and bully the weak and avoid the strong. This is almost the nature of pirates.
No, as soon as the news of the young master's failure was leaked, many undercurrents arose within the Kingdom of Dressrosa.
Many people who were dissatisfied with the rule of Don Quixote's family began to take action.
"It doesn't matter."
Doflamingo shook his head, his pupils under his sunglasses looking down at the crowds of people on the street, "You can't hide it even if you want to. Do you think the Lionheart Pirates won't publicize it?"
"..."
Diamanti fell silent upon hearing this.
That man was so strong that even if the Don Quixote family swarmed him without the control of a strong person at the same level, it would still be a gift.
When the opponent's domineering attack came down, the entire Don Quixote family might be able to stand with less than twenty people, and the number might not be as large as that of the Lionheart Pirates.
"But didn't we reach an agreement with him?"
"This is part of the agreement." Doflamingo said with an evil smile on his lips, "He needs to make a name for himself."
It is best if there is demand, which means it can be traded.
He knows very well that you only have the value of existence when others need you.
"So he uses you as a stepping stone? Damn it, it's so bullying. I really want to fight him."
Diamanti felt extremely humiliated, her face turned red, and she wished she could fight the Lionheart Pirates to the death.
This man is not very powerful, but he is indeed very loyal. He would rather be humiliated than see his young master's majesty fall to pieces.
"Don't be impatient, this little storm won't turn the world upside down." Doflamingo said calmly.
It's frustrating to be a stepping stone to the opponent's reputation, but it's better than being a dead soul under the sword. What's more, the shame is only temporary.
When the world knows the strength of that monster, they will know that it is amazing that he survived.
Tianyaksha is quite good to his capable subordinates. He patted the unwilling Diamanti on the shoulder and said comfortingly:
"This little commotion is nothing at all now. Let the rats in the secret who overestimate their own capabilities jump. We will take the opportunity to clean up afterwards and kill a group of spies and traitors who cheated on others."
This sentence is plain and cold-blooded, cruel, and fully demonstrates the true character of a hero.
Only then did Diamanti's eyes light up. This move was somewhat intended to lure the snake out of its hole.
Maybe after a cleanup, there will be far fewer spies or bugs within the Don Quixote family, and the rule will become more stable.
The young master is still so wise...
At this time, Baby5 rushed over:
"Young Master, people from the World Economic News Agency are already here. They are downstairs. I heard that you are willing to be interviewed. Several small and medium-sized newspapers even sent their chief reporters!"
"very good."
The corners of Brother Ming's mouth raised, and his eyes sparkled.
Since it can't be hidden anymore, let's make a bigger fuss!
He cannot be the only one to be unlucky and embarrassed.
He walked downstairs and walked towards the reporters who were waiting eagerly for him.
"Ah, here he comes, Your Majesty Shichibukai!"
"Doflamingo, I would like to ask, are you really defeated?"
"Who is Francis D. Lane?"
Brother Ming obviously underestimated people's enthusiasm. Sometimes reporters are even braver than the death squads. As soon as he arrived at the hotel door, he was almost pushed to the foot of the steps by the reporters who swarmed up to him.
The reporters were holding notebooks, taking pictures and using telephones, and were rushing forward like crazy with red eyes.
The place was crowded with people, rubbing shoulders with each other, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Their desire for news has overwhelmed their fear of big pirates. The opportunity is so rare that few big pirates are willing to be interviewed by reporters.
Fortunately, the Don Quixote family controlled the situation by wielding knives and guns and using weapons to intimidate them, so no stampede occurred.
"Quiet! Line up and come one by one!"
Diamanti pulled out the long sword filled with cold light, and under his fierce gaze, the scene suddenly became quiet.
The reporters quickly lined up.
The first one was a reporter with a graceful figure and wearing a uniform skirt.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! She suppressed her fear of the big pirate, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said tremblingly:
"Mr. Don Quixote, did you... did you really lose... to Francis D. Lane?"
"Yes, it was a disastrous defeat. I am no match for him and I couldn't withstand his full sword strike." Doflamingo said expressionlessly.
I'm a little unhappy, but it's true.
"Oh my God, it's true!"
"Wow! This, this..."
“It’s incredible!”
The reporters were in a commotion, talking a lot, and many people were excitedly taking photos and recording with pens, and the atmosphere became more and more intense.
There is no doubt that after today, there will be another famous swordsman in the sea.
It can make even Tianyaksha have to bow his head and admit defeat.
"Doflamingo, who do you think has stronger swordsmanship between Francis D. Lane and 'Hawkeye' Mihawk?"
Another middle-aged reporter came forward and brought up a highly controversial topic.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Brother Ming's mouth:
"If I were Joracol Mihawk, I would take the initiative to hand over the throne of the world's greatest swordsman right now to avoid embarrassment."
After saying these words according to the "script", he felt a little relieved inexplicably.
"Wow! This, this..."
"awesome."
“Is the swordsman Ren’s swordsmanship really that strong?”
The reporters were extremely excited and wrote furiously.
They are all veterans in this industry, and they know that this kind of topic of praise and criticism is the most popular and very selling point.
They thought they had uncovered big news, but little did they know that this was just the beginning.
Reporter A followed suit and asked:
"Isn't the swordsman Ren comparable to the Yonko? Can he defeat Kaido, who is said to be the strongest in single combat?"
Tianyaksha laughed and said: "What is the strongest and strongest creature in a duel? Haha, who allowed Kaido to call it that? You are not overestimating your ability. Have you asked the great swordsman Ren?"
It feels so good, he has wanted to say this for a long time.
That bastard Kaido relied on his strength to make a very ugly appearance when doing business with the Don Quixote family, always lowering prices like crazy...
Reporters: "..."
I was so excited that I was speechless. Another breaking news came.
Reporter B: "Then the great swordsman Ren can challenge Whitebeard for the strongest throne in the world?"
Brother Ming: "The strongest in the world? Twenty years ago, Whitebeard could have competed with Ren to be the strongest in the world. As for now, he will be beaten to death, thank you."
After saying these words, I felt really refreshed and felt...I was almost poisoned...
"Ah!"
"Oh oh oh..."
There were so many breaking points that the reporters almost fainted with excitement.
The interview continues.
Reporter C: "Who is more domineering, red-haired Shanks or swordsman Ren?"
Brother Ming smiled calmly: "As far as the red hair is concerned, I'd better practice for another ten years."
It's over, he's addicted...
Reporter Ding: "Who has a harder fist, Iron Fist Garp or Renn?"
Brother Ming showed disdain on his face: "Garp is already old, and he may not be able to survive in his later years. He should just go home and take care of himself."
Reporter A: "Has Admiral Akainu defeated the swordsman Ren?"
Brother Ming sneered: "What Akainu? Ren can punch the red dog's head off with one punch!"
Reporter B: "BIG MOM..."
Brother Ming was very impatient: "Why are you carrying that old woman? Does she have to carry Ren's shoes?"
Reporter C: "General Kizaru..."
Brother Ming sneered again and again: "But pull him down. With his little skills as a three-legged cat, he can only run for his life when he meets Ren."
…
This question and answer lasted for two hours, and Brother Ming almost blacklisted all the strong men in the sea.
He seemed to have become a crazy fan and started to brag about Ren.
That expression, that tone, that action... I wish everyone could know how awesome Francis D. Lane is.
Reporters: "..."
They were shocked to the point of numbness.
Brother Ming: "..."
The spray feels so good...cough cough.
Things that I didn't dare to say before can now be said out loud.
People who did not dare to offend before can now be sprayed with blood.
This kind of thing is simply poisonous. If it happens a few more times, he may become terminally ill.
At the end of the interview, Doflamingo looked at the reporters who looked confused and unbelievable, and suddenly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender:
"You all listen up, I don't want to say these words. It was the great swordsman Ren who forced me. If I don't follow his will, I will be killed! Dressrosa will also be destroyed!"
"Ah this!"
"It turns out he was threatened."
"No wonder Tianyaksha is so weird, so pitiful!"
The reporters became commotion and wanted to continue asking questions.
Doflamingo didn't give him a chance. With one step, his whole body turned into an afterimage and disappeared!
The play is over.
He slipped away, and if he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would go off-script and criticize others.
And the last paragraph is barely true. If he really doesn't cooperate, the risk of being killed will increase sharply...
But Renn still has some conscience, which at least helps him draw most of his hatred towards himself.
Of course, he would also make a profit if the plan was successful, otherwise he would not do such a stupid thing that almost mocked the whole world.
"Big news!"
"Yes, this is big news that is rare in several years."
"Let's go, publish it quickly!!"
These reporters quickly left Dressrosa and hurriedly published the interviews in major newspapers and periodicals.
There is no doubt that in the following days, the entire sea boiled!
Newspaper news about Ren and Tenyasha spread like snowflakes, from the New World to the first half of the Grand Line, from the East China Sea to the West Sea, from Marineland to Marigioa... almost every corner!
