Doflamingo's Far-Reaching Influence and His Scheme to Deceive the World
On the screen, comments filled with shock and disbelief appeared: {Wow, is this for real?! These Tontatta believed it with just a few words! This... this is unbelievable!}
Given the Tontatta's personality, they'd probably be so greedy they'd help the seller count the money even if they were sold out!
{These Tontatta are so innocent! Even more innocent than X!}
It's truly a miracle that this race has survived to this day!

Meanwhile, in the video footage, Robin, having cleared up the misunderstanding, was immediately given a warm welcome by the Tontatta.
But thinking of her promise to Law, Robin politely declined their offer with a slightly apologetic tone. At the same time, she rummaged through her backpack for her Den Den Mushi, hoping to contact Law, but found that the Den Den Mushi was missing. Upon asking, she learned that the Den Den Mushi had been released by the Tontatta!
Robin panicked immediately because their time to trade with Doflamingo was approaching. She quickly asked the Tontatta where the country's exit was.
To everyone's surprise, upon hearing that she was leaving, the Tontatta immediately protested, "You're a good person, right? Since you're a good person, please give us some weapons! That's our rule."
Upon hearing this, Robin, who never uses any weapons, immediately looked troubled and said, "But... but I don't have any weapons!"
"If you don't give it to us, then we'll strip you naked!" Leo said seriously.
"But I really don't have any weapons!" Robin explained.
"Since that's the case, then there's nothing we can do!" Leo and the others' faces immediately darkened, and they said, "We'll have to strip you naked! Take everything."
As Leo finished speaking, the Tontatta who had surrounded Robin again launched an attack on her.
In the blink of an eye, the sunglasses that Robin had put back on his head disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, the other Tontatta swarmed forward, pushed her to the ground, and prepared to strip her clothes off.
Just then, a panicked voice came from not far away, "No! Wait!"
Suddenly, a Tontatta wearing a red spotted hat came running over.
"What happened?" Leo asked, puzzled.
"This giant is... a hero's companion!" the Tontatta said, panting heavily.
"Huh? A hero?" Upon hearing this, the group of Tontatta present were immediately taken aback.
"Who exactly is this hero you're talking about?" Leo asked.
"It's another adult we just captured. Actually, he appeared for the sake of our race, a legendary hero," the Tontatta wearing a red-spotted hat said, tears streaming down his face.
"Really?! That's wonderful!" The Tontatta clinging to Robin exclaimed excitedly. "We really want to see him!"
Robin watched this scene helplessly, muttering to herself, "Usopp, what lie have you told this time?!"
On the screen, a barrage of comments filled with regret and curiosity appeared: {Hey! Forget about that little red-spotted hat Tontatta! Let's get rid of their clothes first!}
{Damn! It would have been better if that Tontatta red-hatted tot had arrived later! That would have made for a real show!}
This thing really came at the worst possible time! It's infuriating!
{As expected, these Tontatta fell for it! They believed the hero archetype so easily! It's laughable! But what exactly was the lie Usopp told?}

The Grand Line, somewhere in the sea, the Thousand Sunny.
"These Tontatta are really lecherous!" Sanji exclaimed indignantly. "Trying to strip Robin-chan of her clothes is unforgivable! But..."
At this point, Sanji's lips curled into a lecherous grin, "... I really want to see Robin naked!"
"That's right!" Brook chimed in from the side.
The next second, an arm sprouted from each of their feet, grabbed their feet, and tripped them, causing them to fall flat on their faces on the deck.
Robin immediately gave them a sharp look as a warning.
"But speaking of which, what lie did you tell those Tontatta this time?" Franky asked, looking at Usopp.
"How would I know!" Usopp shrugged and said, "I always lie according to the situation."
"..."
The video then shifts to Law on the shore, where his Den Den Den Mushi suddenly rings. A hurried voice immediately comes through— Sanji, "Hello! Law, this is Sanji."
"It's the Black Leg boss!" Although Law was surprised by Sanji's sudden call, he was more concerned about something else and asked, "Have you found the factory?"
"This isn't the time to talk about this! Listen up, Law, get out of there right now." Sanji's urging voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Ah! What are you talking about! Sanji, I still need to return Caesar later," Law said, puzzled.
"Doflamingo... he never resigned from his position as Shichibukai." Sanji delivered a bombshell to Law, saying, "Even if you hand Caesar back to him, it won't make any difference."
"What evidence do you have? Black Leg is the leader." Luo asked, his voice trembling. "What exactly is going on?!"
"We were outmaneuvered by Doflamingo from the very beginning!" Sanji shouted.
As he finished speaking, the video feed shifted again, returning to the scene where Violet showed Sanji her memories.
The first thing that comes to mind is a group of citizens protesting in front of the Dressrosa Royal Palace after hearing Doflamingo's announcement of his abdication. They all hoped that Doflamingo would not resign from the throne, but they did not receive a response from Doflamingo.
Shortly after, a ship flying the CP0 flag docked. CP0 agents disembarked and brought news to the citizens: all previous reports about Doflamingo relinquishing the throne and the position of Shichibukai were false. They would issue a separate statement soon to inform the world and correct the information. Therefore, they hoped that the citizens would not leak the news and would maintain their normal lives until then.
