Turmoil (1)

The common people were somewhat restrained. However, the pirates were not so well-behaved.

They were already rebellious pirates, captured by Doflamingo's men and turned into toys, forced to work day and night. Naturally, this fueled their resentment.

Now that they've returned to normal, all the resentment they've been holding in has finally erupted.

They grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the palace, ready to kill Doflamingo.

None of Doflamingo's subordinates fared well when they encountered them; they were all taken care of by those crazed pirates.

As time went on, more and more people joined the fight against Doflamingo.

The team also grew increasingly large and impressive.

"Hehe, I remember now, that toy that's been bothering me, it really is Robin." Fanxin suddenly felt something appear in his mind, it was Robin's shadow.

Before, he couldn't remember at all. Now, he finally remembered.

"I remember now," Ren Fang said. "The Hobby-Hobby Fruit is truly terrifying; it can completely seal away a person's memories. It's truly chilling."

"Yes!" Fanxin nodded in agreement, looking at the Sugar in his hand, and said, "What should we do with this little girl?"

He didn't want to kill a little girl; the feeling was unpleasant. However, this girl was too troublesome. She possessed the terrifying Hobby-Hobby Fruit. If this little girl targeted them, they would all be doomed.

They will all eventually become toys, and none of them will recognize each other. That would be a very painful thing.

"Sigh, this little girl only followed someone like Doflamingo, that's why she turned bad. If she had followed a good person, she wouldn't have turned out like this."

Ren Fang pondered for a moment and said, "How about this, let the Little Black Cat create a robot to stay by her side. If she makes any unusual moves, we can immediately suppress her. Then, we can work on her mindset, and that should be able to change her mind."

She didn't want to kill a little girl either, but they couldn't just let her go either. This little girl had special abilities, and if she fell into the wrong hands, it would be a real problem.

They will use Sugar's abilities to do something big.

"Alright! Little Black Cat's robots are all lifeless, so let the robots take care of her!" Fanxin nodded and said, "However, we can't loosen her handcuffs for a while. This little girl harbors a deep resentment towards me, and I'm worried she might make a move against me."

He just gave her a thorough beating without any mercy; it's highly unlikely she won't hold a grudge.

"Okay, let's put it in the Diamond Space for now!" Ren Fang glanced into the distance and said, "I have a feeling that something big is about to happen, and we don't have time to deal with this little girl for the time being."

"That's true. Now that all the toys are back to normal, Doflamingo is probably in for a headache. All his secrets have been exposed, and he certainly won't just sit idly by." Fanxin nodded and said, "I just wonder what he'll do next. I'm really looking forward to it."

"Hmph, me too," Ren Fang said with a smile.

"In that case, let's wait patiently!" Fanxin Xin nodded and said.

"Okay, let's wait here!" Ren Fang said.

"Little Black Cat, release the robots and let them look around. I need to get a sense of the entire island's situation," Fanxin said.

Although he possessed Haki, observing the entire island would consume too much of Haki. He still had to fight later. If he ran out of Haki, it would be troublesome. Therefore, he had no choice but to send the Little Black Cat.

"Understood." The Little Black Cat nodded and immediately released hundreds of robots to patrol the area.

After everything was settled, the Little Black Cat lay in Ren Fang's arms and took a nap.

Fanxin and Ren Fang sat on the rooftop, waiting.

Inside the council chamber of the royal palace.

Doflamingo was sitting there leisurely drinking tea. Next to him, a blind old man was also sitting there drinking tea.

The blind man had a military overcoat draped over his shoulders, with the words "Justice" boldly written on the back.

This blind old man is no small fry, but a big shot; he is the newly Marine Admiral Fujitora.

Don't let his blindness fool you; his strength is not to be underestimated. Although he's blind, he possesses Haki, so whether he has eyes or not is irrelevant to him.

He only needs to use his Haki to perceive everything around him, and then he will not be affected in any way.

He was recruited during the World Military Draft that began after Akainu became Akainu Fleet Admiral.

His exceptional abilities led to his selection as Marine Admiral, where he gained Akainu's deep trust.

He came here for only one purpose: to resolve the Doflamingo issue.

Although Doflamingo concealed it extremely well, the Navy wasn't to be underestimated. They had long since discovered that Doflamingo was engaged in shady dealings. However, they simply hadn't taken action yet.

The reason for this is that the Navy had just experienced a brutal Paramount War. At that time, the Navy was severely weakened and preoccupied with its own problems, so it had no time to deal with Doflamingo's mess.

So, even though they knew, they could only turn a blind eye.

Two years have passed, and many things have happened in the Navy. Aokiji and Akainu fought fiercely for the position of Fleet Admiral, and everything ended with Aokiji's departure.

After Akainu took over, he had to deal with many lingering problems and fill the vacancy of Marine Admiral. Otherwise, the Marines would be in grave danger should a powerful enemy invade.

He became Fleet Admiral, Aokiji left, and suddenly two Marine Admiral positions were vacant. So, he eventually launched a worldwide recruitment drive and recruited two powerful Admiral.

One is Fujitora Issho, and the other is Ryokugyu.

It wasn't until recently that things finally calmed down within the Navy. Only then did they have the time to send someone over to settle old scores with Doflamingo.

Fujitora Issho came here this time representing the Navy to negotiate with Doflamingo.

If Doflamingo is sensible, they can resolve things peacefully. If Doflamingo's not, then he'll have no choice but to settle things with force.

The final outcome depends entirely on Doflamingo's decision.

"Heavenly Yaksha, it's time for you to make a decision: surrender or resist. Give me an answer as soon as possible!" Admiral Fujitora Issho said calmly.

"Hmph, do you think I'd surrender? Don't daydream. There's no way I'd surrender," Doflamingo said with a chuckle.

Heavenly Yaksha is another name he uses, which is rarely used and therefore few people know. However, someone of Fujitora Issho's caliber knows about Doflamingo's past and his true identity.

He preferred to call Doflamingo "Heavenly Yaksha, "Doflamingo and rarely used the real name.

Doflamingo laughed wildly; he had no intention of surrendering, that was his decision.

He never surrendered when he was weak. Now, he's even less likely to surrender, because he has fully matured.

Now, it won't be easy for the Navy to control him.

Under these circumstances, he naturally wouldn't surrender.

"Hmph, if you surrender, we can handle things properly. If you remain obstinate, then we'll have no choice but to resort to force. Do you think that's a good idea?" said Admiral Fujitora.

"Fine, then let's fight. But let me tell you, you think you can make me surrender? That's highly unlikely. I absolutely will not agree," Doflamingo said. "If you keep pushing your luck, I'll kill you right here. If you die, the Navy will be one less Admiral, and then they'll be in a lot of trouble again."

The navy went to great lengths to select its Admiral. Their efforts paid off, and they ultimately chose two formidable and capable Admiral.

However, if Admiral Fujitora dies here, the Navy will have to choose a new Admiral.

Choosing Admiral is no small matter; if you don't do it well, you won't be able to find a suitable candidate in a short period of time.

"Do you think you can kill me?" Admiral Fujitora asked coldly.

He was a powerful Admiral, and it would be extremely difficult for Heavenly Yaksha to kill him. If Heavenly Yaksha were to attack him, he would definitely not let him get away with it.

"Heh, how would you know I can't do it if you haven't tried?" Doflamingo said with a laugh.

"Since that's the case, then I have no choice but to attack you now." Seeing Doflamingo's aggressive demeanor, Admiral Fujitora Issho knew that Doflamingo had no intention of surrendering. Since that was the case, there was no point in him saying anything more.

Therefore, he had no choice but to resolve everything by force.

He drew his knife, ready to strike.

Doflamingo is also preparing to retaliate.

However, just then, a guard rushed in, knelt down in front of Doflamingo, and said, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! All those toys have turned into people and animals! We don't know what's going on. Now, a huge army of toys has appeared in the streets and is heading this way, saying they're here to attack you!"

"The king's army tried to stop them, but there were too many of them; we couldn't hold them off at all. The situation has become extremely dangerous. We beg the king to offer some advice."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Doflamingo's expression changed, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He knew perfectly well why those toys had turned into people. His subordinates were the ones who had created them.

Now that those guys are out of trouble and back to normal, it's a Destruction blow to him.

Because those guys were involved in his shady deal from the very beginning. Once they show up, they'll expose everything.

Now, with Marine Admiral right here, this is the most disadvantageous situation for him.

"Damn it, what's going on? Where's Trebol? What's wrong with him? Why didn't he take good care of Sugar?" Doflamingo roared.

Having witnessed this, he naturally knew the reason. As long as Sugar remained unharmed, these people would never return to normal. That was because Sugar had used her power.

To protect Sugar, he sent his top executives there to prevent such a thing from happening.

However, this has still happened, which has enraged him.

If he doesn't handle this well, everything he's built up over the past ten years will be for naught—it's all his hard work.

"I don't know. Trebol is nowhere to be found. He's not in the cadre tower anymore," the guard immediately replied.

"Damn it!" Doflamingo was furious. He chased away the guards and paced freely around the room, appearing extremely agitated.

There's no other way; his secret is about to be exposed, and if he doesn't come up with a solution, it will be very troublesome.

"Heavenly Yaksha, it seems your end is near. I won't even need to lift a finger; someone else will destroy you," Admiral Fujitora said with a laugh.

He just used his Haki to sense the situation outside, and he now knows everything clearly.

He knew Doflamingo was in deep trouble. If he couldn't handle things properly, things would get really complicated.

"Hmph, Fujitora, let me tell you, don't give me that sarcastic talk. I'm in a very bad mood right now. If you dare to mess with me, I'll kill you on the spot," Doflamingo said coldly.

"I won't lay a hand on you for now. I hope you can hold out until the end! If you don't, then you'll die." Admiral Fujitora Issho, "Heh, even if you hold out until the end, what about me? I'll deal with you then."

"Alright, you go ahead and do your work. I'm going to rest and grab something to eat. I won't bother you anymore."

After saying that, Fujitora Issho stood up and headed out of the palace.

He was planning to reap the benefits later. He wanted Doflamingo to fight with others, and then, when both sides were exhausted, he would strike and deal with them severely. In this way, he could easily take down Doflamingo.

Doflamingo also saw through Fujitora Issho's intentions, and his expression grew increasingly cold. However, he didn't immediately attack Fujitora Issho, because he had more troublesome matters to attend to.

Attacking Fujitora Issho now would only bring him trouble. Since Fujitora Issho knows all the secrets, there's no need for him to stop anything.

He stopped looking at Fujitora Issho and immediately turned to attend to other matters. He took out Den Den Mushi and began contacting his officers and guards, instructing them to assemble at the palace; he was preparing to take action.
