Kyros's True Identity Revealed (Part 2)
The New World, Dressrosa, beside a river.
"Your King Riku, are you alright?" Kyros asked with concern.
Inside the Corrida Colosseum.
"Grandpa, where are you right now?" Rebecca asked anxiously.
On the other side, the video feed shifts back to King Riku's perspective from a short time ago, revealing that he had also participated in the Corrida Colosseum.
However, due to his own lack of strength, he was defeated.
He was then thrown into the bottom of a toy disposal plant along with the other defeated contestants, where he met his former subordinate, Tegu Repante, and King Elizabello II of the Prodence Kingdom, whom he had once helped.
But it didn't last long before Trebol captured them and, through Sugar's power, turned them into toys.
He was subsequently captured by Trebol as well. However, due to his special status, Trebol did not allow Sugar to turn him into a toy. Instead, he handed him over to Doflamingo, who took Doflamingo to the Royal Palace.
And so, this scene unfolded.
When faced with Doflamingo's question, King Riku did not speak, but responded with silence, indicating that he had nothing to say to him.
Meanwhile, outside the window, Luffy, who had been staring intently inside, said impatiently, "I already said, let's just hurry up and go in and knock Doflamingo away!"
"I already told you to wait a little longer!" Violet reassured.
The One-Legged Toy Soldier standing beside them remained silent, only gripping his weapon tightly.
Suddenly, his body began to glow with a golden light.
The next second, the scene shifts back to the earlier conversation between Leo and Usopp at the underground Trading Port.
Seeing Usopp's confusion, Leo began to tell him everything about the One-Legged Toy Soldier.
He was the first person in all of Dressrosa to be turned into a toy by Sugar, but due to Sugar's mistake, no contract was signed with him.
Therefore, he became the only being in the country who did not have to obey human commands and was able to rebel against the Donquixote Family.
It was precisely because of his existence that the toys of this country were not at the mercy of others, and that the Tontatta were not all enslaved.
If they continue to ignore his cries, then this country will have no hope, and therefore the One-Legged Toy Soldier is entirely worth risking their lives for.
Because Leo's tone became increasingly agitated, "Although none of the adult humans remember him now! But his name was once known to every household, he was..."
At this point, the camera shifts to Violet, who is excitedly covering her mouth as she watches a tall, one-legged man wielding a sword charge towards Doflamingo in the hall. She says, "He is Kyros, the former Army Commander of the King Riku Army's army, and also the most powerful gladiator in the history of the entire Corrida Colosseum."
"Ah!" Luffy, standing next to her, exclaimed in surprise, "Then... then isn't he that bronze statue guy?"
"Yes! That's his bronze statue." Violet nodded and said, "And he's Rebecca's biological father."
At this moment, the camera focused on Kyros, who had already reached Doflamingo and was slashing at him with his sword.
His biography immediately appeared. "Cyrus, former captain of the King Riku Army Dressrosa, a Kyros hero of the Corrida Colosseum."
"You bastard, you are..." Doflamingo exclaimed, staring at Kyros.
On the other side, King Riku, his hands bound, asked Kyros, who was charging towards him, "Is that Kyros?"
"Yes," Kyros replied apologetically, "I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting for these past ten years!"
"I'll come to your rescue right now and reclaim the real Dressrosa." With that, he beheaded Doflamingo with a single stroke.
This scene shocked everyone present.
On the screen, a massive barrage of shocked comments appeared: {Holy crap! What... what's going on?! Do... Doflamingo isn't really dead, is he?! This... this is too absurd!}
{No... no way! Even if he was the strongest gladiator in the history of the Corrida Colosseum, he couldn't possibly have killed Doflamingo in one move, could he? The difference in skill level is just too great!}
{I never expected that One-Legged Toy Soldier to be so strong. He killed Doflamingo in one move. This... this strength is truly terrifying!}
{Wait, if Kyros is so strong, why did he let Dressrosa fall into Doflamingo's hands before?!}

The New World, Dressrosa, King's Plateau, Inside the Royal Palace.
"Fuck, I see! Kyros, huh? I'll remember you! But you don't think you can kill me like this, do you?" Doflamingo sneered. "This is just the beginning!"
The New World, Wano Country, Onigashima.
"Hehehe, that kid Doflamingo is actually quite good at acting!" Kaido laughed. "He created a clone to play tricks on those guys, it's really quite amusing!"
Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi in front of him rang, and Jack's voice came through, "It's me, Kaido! We've picked up Caesar!"
On the other side, the video footage shifts back to Dressrosa many years ago, when Kyros just a boy, only fifteen years old.
However, after his friend was murdered, he killed the perpetrator, becoming a murderer and a wanted criminal.
He displayed formidable fighting prowess when confronted by the King Riku Army, who were King Riku Army with capturing him, forcing them to prepare to shoot him.
Fortunately, King Riku stepped forward and stopped them, but Kyros showed no gratitude and instead struck him with his hammer, severely injuring him.
This immediately enraged the King Riku Army present, who once again prepared to shoot him, but were stopped by King Riku once more.
Not only that, he also invited Kyros to become a gladiator in the Corrida Colosseum, promising him freedom and absolution if he could achieve a hundred consecutive victories.
Kyros accepted King Riku's invitation and quickly achieved a hundred consecutive victories in just four months, demonstrating his strength.
However, because he loathed his identity as a murderer, he did not choose to leave the Corrida Colosseum, but instead stayed there to continue fighting.
And so Kyros stayed in the Corrida Colosseum for another four years, achieving a thousand consecutive victories. At the same time, he gradually changed the audience's perception of him, from initially despising him as a murderer to later recognizing him as a gladiator.
However, even so, Kyros was still unable to let go of the fact that he was a murderer.
It wasn't until his three thousandth battle that he defeated King Riku in disguise as a gladiator and accepted his invitation to become the Army Commander of the King Riku Army's army.
However, there was a man who was very dissatisfied with his position as Army Commander, and that man had an almost identical appearance to Rebecca.
Her character profile immediately appeared. "Scarlet, former princess of Dressrosa and eldest daughter of King Riku."
Despite Scarlet's dissatisfaction with him, Kyros was not angry at all; on the contrary, he did his best to protect her.
However, Scarlet never gave him a friendly look.
It wasn't until Scarlet was captured by pirates that Kyros defeated all the pirates single-handedly and successfully rescued her. This changed her opinion of Kyros, and she fell in love with him. For him, she even gave up her status as a princess and chose to live in seclusion with him in the Flower Field. Not long after, she gave birth to Rebecca.
