Doflamingo (1)
He then quickly headed towards the execution platform.
After speeding along, Fanxin caught up with Straw Hat Boy and his group. At this moment, they were stopped by a group of officers and generals.
These people were all dispatched by Admiral Kizaru. Kizaru himself didn't make a move because he was tied up and couldn't concentrate. However, he didn't want to let the Straw Hat Boy off so easily, because the Straw Hat Boy had attacked Celestial Dragons! He was the one who dealt with that incident. However, the result wasn't what he hoped for. The Straw Hat Boy took the opportunity to escape, which was a miscalculation on his part.
Later, he couldn't explain himself to the Celestial Dragons! So, he had no choice but to hide from Celestial Dragons. Even though the Celestial Dragons were somewhat useless, they had powerful backers!
However, this is not a simple matter. He must find a way to resolve it; only then can he make the Celestial Dragons stop.
So what he needs to do is capture the Straw Hat Boy; only then can his troubles be resolved.
However, someone was watching him, preventing him from taking action himself. So, he could only call over the officers beside him and have them handle the situation.
These officers are all quite famous and powerful. If it weren't for the help of the Revolutionary Army and the pirates, Straw Hat Boy would have been captured long ago. However, even so, they are blocked here and unable to escape.
Arriving beside the Straw Hat Boy, Fanxin said, "I'll clear a path for you; you go first!"
"Thank you so much, I'm so glad you were here," Straw Hat Boy said excitedly. There were too many marines around him, and he couldn't move forward at all. He was very anxious, worried that Ace would be killed. However, his anxiety was useless. These officers were not to be trifled with.
Fanxin is stronger than him. If Fanxin were to make a move, he could definitely clear a bloody path for him, so that he could reach his Ace's side.
"No need to thank me, this is just a dead end." Fanxin pointed ahead and said, "There are Admiral and many lieutenant Vice Admiral ahead. Even if you go, you'll probably only have a slim chance of survival. Since you insist on going, I can only grant your wish. Life and death are in the hands of fate, wealth and honor are determined by heaven. Pray for your own good fortune!"
He couldn't stop the Straw Hat Boy because the guy was too stubborn. He knew it was impossible, yet he still did it—wasn't that just courting death? However, there are just some people like that in this world. For their goals, they will never back down an inch, and they will fight to the death to survive.
This is risky, but not impossible. It's just that the probability of success is so small it's practically negligible.
The Straw Hat Boy could get through, but if he was unlucky enough to encounter Admiral or Vice Admiral, he would be doomed. There was nothing the Admiral or Vice Admiral could do, as they were both incredibly powerful, and he alone couldn't possibly defeat them both. The Straw Hat Boy had to figure out a solution himself. If he couldn't find a way, he would surely die.
"Alright, go ahead and do it!" The Straw Hat Boy nodded in agreement without the slightest hesitation.
"Hehe, what a madman. But I like him. I hope you survive! The New World would be so boring without a few madmen." Fanxin couldn't help but laugh when he saw the Straw Hat Boy's excited expression.
The reason he befriended the Straw Hat Boy was because he was genuine! He wouldn't beat around the bush or beat you up. If he thought you were good, he would treat you sincerely. You could completely trust someone like that. In that case, he wouldn't have to worry about being attacked from behind.
Having said that, Fanxin stopped wasting words. He immediately took action, carving a bloody path with domineering force, and threw the Straw Hat Boy over.
Although he had lost a lot of Fanxin, it wasn't a big deal for the Straw Hat Boy. After all, his body was made of rubber; a few falls wouldn't affect him much.
After sending Straw Hat Boy ahead, Fanxin began dealing with the marines around him. Straw Hat Boy going alone would be suicide. He had to send those who had helped him along as well. Only then could Straw Hat Boy's life be guaranteed.
Otherwise, the Straw Hat Boy would have been killed if he had encountered a powerful opponent.
Without any hesitation, Fanxin Xin defeated all the marines on this side and then cleared a path for everyone, leading directly to the execution platform.
After resting for a while, Fanxin was about to continue on her way. However, at that moment, a man walked over. He was wearing red glasses and a red cloak that looked like chicken feathers. He was very tall, with his hands in his pockets and wearing a pair of women's high heels, which looked rather incongruous.
His laughter was exaggerated, and he walked with a pigeon-toed gait, as if he had some discomfort down there.
He had never seen this man before, but he recognized his wanted poster. The man's name was Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai. He was the king of the New World.
This is a formidable opponent; those who have fought him are said to be terrified. Donquixote Doflamingo can control people, and under his control, you have absolutely no ability to resist. He can make you do whatever he wants, and he can prevent you from doing whatever he doesn't want you to do. In short, if you are controlled by him, you will never be free again unless he stops.
However, Donquixote Doflamingo is an extremely cruel man who kills people or destroys towns at will. He enjoys watching others kill in front of him. He is an absolute madman.
Fanxin looked at the other person, his brows furrowing slightly, and said, "Hey, Donquixote Doflamingo, why are you stopping me?"
He was a little puzzled; he had no connection with the other person at all! He really couldn't understand why the other person would come all the way to find him.
"Heh heh, Fanxin, are you interested in joining forces with me?" Donquixote Doflamingo approached Fanxin from three meters away, chuckled, and said.
"Join forces with you? What do you mean?" Fanxin asked, puzzled. He was somewhat confused because Donquixote Doflamingo's words were too strange, as if he was planning something.
"You're very strong, you've mastered Conqueror's Haki. I need an ally like you. If we join forces, I don't think anyone can stop us. What do you say?" Donquixote Doflamingo laughed.
"Oh, so you saw potential in me!" Fanxin exclaimed, Satori meant.
His opponent was already Shichibukai; he wouldn't even bother with ordinary things. However, those who possessed Conqueror's Haki were extremely rare. They were chosen by the heavens, a rare talent appearing only among millions of people!
This isn't like cabbage at the market, something you can just come and go as you please; it's something money can't buy. Donquixote Doflamingo naturally had his eye on it.
Fanxin knew that if he hadn't mastered Conqueror's Haki, Donquixote Doflamingo probably wouldn't have paid him any attention.
"Indeed, with such great potential, and with me guiding you, wouldn't that be even better? Your achievements will be even greater then," Donquixote Doflamingo said noncommittally. He had his eye on Fanxin's potential; otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with Fanxin. A mere brat, not worth his effort or waste of breath on, you Arlong.
"But I've heard that your reputation isn't very good!" Fanxin said hesitantly upon hearing this.
Doflamingo is an evil man who makes deals with dark forces. He even trafficked in people; the slave auction house on Sabaody Archipelago was actually run by him.
Fanxin saw the symbol at the auction; it was the symbol of the Donquixote Family.
He disliked human trafficking and found it utterly despicable. He couldn't work with Donquixote Doflamingo, not because of Doflamingo's abilities, but because of Doflamingo's mindset and worldview.
The other person's heart was filled with darkness, devoid of any light. He had no desire to get entangled with someone walking in darkness; it would do him no good.
"You're a pirate now, what need do you have for a reputation!" Donquixote Doflamingo said.
Pirates are infamous, and in his view, that's how pirates should be; they don't need to have any kindness, because that's not something pirates should possess.
"Hmph, although I'm a pirate, I only do what I want to do. I wouldn't do those petty, underhanded things," Fanxin snorted and said.
What he meant was, although we are both pirates, there is a fundamental difference between us. You want to do evil, and it is your own choice, while I am forced into it.
"Hmph, doing evil is doing evil, there's no need to be so clear about it," Donquixote Doflamingo said. "Do you think that doing a few good deeds can erase your identity as a pirate?"
"Of course I know it can't be erased. But I don't care. So what if I'm a pirate? I can still stay true to myself. But you might not be so. You're born bloodthirsty and enjoy doing evil." Fanxin said, "Hey, you've killed so many people, do you have nightmares at night?"
He doesn't like killing; he only injures others because these people are also born of parents. He has no hatred towards them and would never kill them.
"Hmph, judging from your tone, you're unwilling to cooperate with me, aren't you?" Donquixote Doflamingo frowned and said.
Fanxin replied noncommittally, "Yes, I don't like cooperating with you. You should leave! Don't waste my time."
He needed to hurry on his journey and simply didn't have time to waste with Donquixote Doflamingo. If he continued to dawdle with him, it would definitely waste time. Once Ace was executed, everything would be over.
"Heh, you dare refuse my request? In that case, you can die." Donquixote Doflamingo shouted angrily.
As he spoke, he twitched his fingers a few times. Fanxin glanced at them but saw nothing. However, the next moment, his expression changed, because he felt that his movements seemed to be out of his control.
"What kind of move is that?" Fanxin said with a gloomy expression. He knew that Doflamingo must have used his ability to indirectly control him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be unable to control his body.
"Heh, this is my ability, Parasite. I can control your behavior by injecting threads invisible to the naked eye into your body. Once I control you, you'll become my puppet." Donquixote Doflamingo laughed. "Kid, those who obey me prosper, those who defy me perish. Since you don't obey me, you only have death as your fate. You asked for it."
"That's ruthless. If you can't have it, you'll destroy it all. But do you think you can succeed?" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.
"Do you think I can't succeed?" Donquixote Doflamingo retorted.
"If it were someone else, you might succeed. But unfortunately, you're dealing with me. You think you can take me down with this? That's impossible," Fanxin said with a smile.
"Oh, you have another way to escape?" Donquixote Doflamingo asked, his brow furrowing slightly.
"Of course I can, because I am a member of the Soul Clan, and the body and soul of the Soul Clan can be separated," Fanxin said. "Your move can only control my body, not my soul. Therefore, it's impossible for me to do whatever you want."
He wasn't lying; if the other party could control souls, he wouldn't be able to speak at all right now, because he'd be under their control.
Therefore, he was certain that the other party could only control a part of the body, not the whole thing. In that case, he would still have the ability to resist.
"The Soul Clan? I think I've heard of them," Donquixote Doflamingo said. "They've been wiped out, how could anyone still be alive?"
"Hmph, anything is possible. Does the Navy think they can wipe out the Soul Clan? That's just wishful thinking," Fanxin Xin said dismissively.
Even if a member of the Soul Clan has their body destroyed, their soul still exists, and as long as no major problems arise, they can live alongside normal people. However, without a body, many things become impossible. Therefore, members of the Soul Clan must eventually seek out a suitable physical body.
If that weren't the case, the Soul Clan could simply hide themselves and completely ignore the outside world. They exist as souls; who could possibly find them?
"Heh, so be it! Since there's still a remnant like you, then I'll take action and personally finish you off, ensuring the complete extinction of your Soul Clan," Donquixote Doflamingo said coldly.
After saying that, he began to attack Fanxin. He controlled Fanxin with one hand while using the other to strike Fanxin. He wanted to take this opportunity to make a move against Fanxin.
