Dressrosa
After a fierce battle, Luffy, the Straw Hat Kid, finally defeated Doflamingo, the Heavenly Yaksha, after countless sit-ups.
The two fell from a great height at the same time and lost consciousness.
"ROOM: Shambles!"
Upon seeing this, Law quickly activated his ability to Luffy to his side to prevent him from suffering further harm.
"Lucy ...he won..."
A girl with pink hair, a sweet face, and baby-soft skin, but an extremely hot figure, caught Luffy and couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand, tears streaming down her face.
"It's really tough!"
Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.
"West, the String Fruit Devil Fruit Awakening. You've really put on a good show for me this time."
An unexpected sound came, and Luo looked up in alarm as a white dove flew past.
It circled in the air once, then landed on the shoulder of a person dressed in white.
The tall figure the latter was holding was none other than Doflamingo, who had just fought fiercely with Luffy!
"No way... why is that Sea Emperor's officer here?!"
Luo's teeth were chattering.
He knew that Doflamingo was backed by Kaido of the Beasts, so he had long been prepared to fight that guy alongside the Straw Hat Pirates.
But he had never heard of Doflamingo having any dealings with Black Winged Great Demon!
"Don't worry, I have no intention of attacking you. This operation is simply to take this guy away."
Lucci was quite eager to test the power of Straw Hat Kid's new form, but judging from his current state, he probably wouldn't be able to get up for at least a few days.
He pulled a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and reported the situation to Hachinosu.
"Hateful..."
Luo was so angry he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.
Let alone in their current state, even in their prime, they probably wouldn't gain any advantage by attacking the Sea Emperor's officers.
The person in front of us is only one of them. According to what Princess Violet just said, there is another executive of Las Noches here.
The ruins of the house that were destroyed by the Straw Hat crew and Doflamingo but are now floating in the air are probably the work of that person!
"The scene was truly horrific, though I couldn't see it anyway."
At this moment, Yisheng was gradually coming into everyone's view. The Gambler's Fireline in his hand was already unsheathed, and the ruins hovering in the air were his doing.
"Two high-ranking officials from Las Noches..."
Violet gritted her teeth; she wanted nothing more than to kill that bastard Doflamingo right then and there, but she couldn't!
"Where are you taking Doflamingo? Are you trying to steal my brother's victory?"
Unexpectedly, a blond man wearing a hat emerged from the shadows, wielding Supreme Steel Pipe, followed by a girl with orange-yellow hair.
Sabo was somewhat displeased; he pushed up his hat and spoke in a serious tone.
To some extent, Las Noches is an ally of the Revolutionary Army, and I shouldn't concern myself with their actions.
However, it was still hard for the younger brother to let the enemy he had fought so hard to defeat be taken away like that.
"Revolutionaries, huh... If you're not happy about it, you're welcome to come and take it from me."
Lucci showed a hint of disdain, tugged at Mingo in his hand, and looked at Sabo provocatively.
"Mr. Lucci, please don't take offense, we meant no harm."
Klar knew that Sabo was just upset for a moment and had no intention of clashing with Las Noches, so she quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
"Even if you have malicious intentions, I don't mind. After all, it's been a long time since I've fought with outsiders."
Lucci's words remained arrogant.
On the other side.
"Vice Admiral Maynard, the Den Den Mushi is ready!"
A marine is pointing a Den Den Mushi at a wounded naval admiral who is sitting in the ruins smoking.
"Very good, the other Den Den Mushi must be following Mr. Burley!"
The Vice Admiral took a deep drag on his cigarette and then spoke.
"Yes, along with most of the marines, that Den Den Mushi is following Admiral Burley."
The marine responded by raising his hand to his forehead.
"Very good. What we are about to do may make us despised when we return to Marineford, but it may also change the course of the world!"
"This time, we want people to see things clearly and let the world make the decision!"
After taking a drag of his cigarette, Maynard stood up.
Before King Riku, the former king of Dressrosa.
"King Riku, the riots you instigated back then were all caused by Doflamingo. Now that guy has finally fallen, we ask you to come back and take charge!"
The common people who survived this ordeal all learned the truth of what happened years ago and pleaded with this wise king to return to the throne.
"No! Stop talking, everyone! Even if the misunderstanding is cleared up, I can never be king again!"
After Doflamingo's 10-year ordeal, King Riku felt that his "non-war" mentality was still too fragile.
"King Riku, it's alright, please take Dressrosa back to peace! Even if we perish because of 'not fighting,' we will do so willingly!"
"That's right! You are the only one who is our king!"
The people began to shout, requesting that King Riku be restored to the throne.
Even if we are not rich or even poor, as before, it doesn't matter. What matters is peace, and that the family can be together in peace.
"Everyone..."
King Riku was somewhat stunned; he hadn't expected that his people would think this way.
"Hahaha~ My reputation as the King of Battle sounds rather ironic now!"
Behind the commoners, an extremely tall and imposing figure appeared, wearing a crown, half-naked but draped in a cloak, and with boxing gloves on his hands.
"Elizabello!"
King Riku stood up at this moment. The liberation of Dressrosa was inseparable from the help of his old friend.
"Your King Riku, please return to the palace immediately! The phones of the kings of the surrounding countries are ringing off the hook!"
A soldier strode along, his face beaming with excitement and happiness.
"What's going on..."
While King Riku was still completely bewildered, he saw the smile on his old friend's face.
"I just contacted them and told them that King Riku has been resurrected. They are overjoyed."
Elizarobe looked proud.
"The King of Prodence is so handsome!"
The people of Dressrosa cheered and applauded his move.
"In just ten years, you've aged so much... Where did that guy go, the one who wanted nothing more than to stare the whole world to death for the sake of peace?"
"Come back, everyone is waiting! 'King of Miracles' Riku Dold!"
Elizarobe couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion for the suffering his friend had endured over the years.
"Come back, Your King Riku!"
At the same time, his words resonated with the public and evoked strong emotions.
"What they said is indeed true, Your King Riku!"
As the words fell, the Marine Admiral, clad in the armor of justice, led a group of marines out from behind the crowd.
A marine behind him was holding a Den Den Mushi (a Den Den Mushi) and pointing it at him.
