Negotiations Fail
"No matter what, let's go in and take a look. Maybe the situation isn't as bad as I think," Diamante said in a deep voice.
"Lord Diamante, aren't you being too wary of that guy? Two years ago, he only barely escaped by taking advantage of the young master's carelessness. It's nothing like what those foolish newspapers are saying. Besides, Dressrosa is the headquarters of our Donquixote Family. Even the Four Emperors' pirate crews would have to think twice before coming here," Dellinger said with a grin, wearing high heels.
After all, within the Donquixote Family, Doflamingo is the supreme being, and they simply do not believe that their young master will fail, even though he is considered the pirate closest to the Four Emperors.
"Dellinger, you'd better put away your ridiculous ideas." Diamante was unusually serious. "I faced that person head-on two years ago, and I have more authority to say that than you do."
"Although he did manage to escape from the young master's clutches two years ago by using some tricks, his strength at that time was already far beyond yours and mine. Moreover, with his inhuman rate of progress, even the young master is extremely wary of him today and has even taken the initiative to extend an olive branch to him."
"You only had such a stupid idea because you didn't see the broadcast at the time. Anyone who witnessed that battle would know that monsters like them could wipe Dressrosa out completely without any difficulty."
"Even Diamante, the highest-ranking member of the Donquixote Family, is terrified of him, and even Doflamingo, that devil, only dares to befriend him. Is this what he meant by power bringing everything?" Violet, who had just emerged from her dream, overheard their conversation and gained a deeper understanding of Roy's power.
"If, if I could become as powerful as Nightmare, I would definitely be able to get my revenge, right?" For the first time Violet felt a strong desire for power.
Dellinger fell silent upon hearing this. Indeed, Dressrosa without Doflamingo was nothing in front of such a ruthless person.
"I understand, I won't cause trouble."
"Then... Pfft!" Diamante, who had already reached the casino entrance, was instantly blasted away by an unstoppable force. Blood gushed out in the air, and the cadres following behind him were not much better off, crashing heavily to the ground like meteorites.
The rather luxurious casino was instantly annihilated into the smallest particles.
"I knew Nightmare's arrival wouldn't be good..." Diamante's eyes were lifeless, looking like he had been completely ruined.
"However, an enemy that Nightmare is so prepared for is definitely not to be underestimated." Diamante forced a smile and said, "This kind of person came to Dressrosa without making a sound. He must have something up his sleeve. Maybe Nightmare has helped us find a potential enemy. Hmm, this is a good deal."
"Uncle Yixiao, you'd better think this through. If we can't be friends, then we'll have to become enemies." Roy's indifferent voice rang out from the swirling dust, revealing no emotion.
"It is fortunate to be blind, for there are far too many filthy and despicable people in the world that are unbearable to look at! Of course, Roy is not the kind of filthy and despicable person I am talking about, but in my opinion, Roy may become the source of the darkness and turmoil of this era. Although my strength may not be a match for Roy, I still hope to do my best to stop Roy's crazy behavior."
"Uncle Yixiao, your statement seems a bit biased. My principle has always been to follow the middle way, walking between light and darkness. Compared to most pirates, I consider myself an innocent and kind little lamb." Roy spread his hands and said innocently.
Hearing Roy's explanation, the severely injured Diamante was furious and almost spat out blood. "How dare you, a demon, call yourself innocent and kind? I can't believe you. Even our nominal allies have suffered at your hands."
"Hahaha, Roy joking. Although I am blind, my heart can distinguish between light and darkness. Perhaps you Roy indeed as you said before, impartial and between black and white, but your unintentional actions may plunge this world into deeper darkness."
Roy was also a little frustrated. It seemed that he really didn't have the talent for Talk no Jutsu. What happened to the idea that Ikko was an essential combat force for transmigrators? However, he didn't feel too much regret. After all, Ikko's philosophy was contrary to his own. If he really chose to join, he might become a ticking time bomb.
Roy's main purpose in this negotiation was actually to test Issho's attitude towards him. After all, based on Issho's actions after becoming Marine Admiral in his previous life, it was almost certain that the two were destined to be enemies.
"That's a real shame. Perhaps today is the end of your journey, Uncle Yixiao." Roy's murderous intent surfaced in his eyes, and even the surrounding temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.
Roy knew that Issho's strength was far beyond Momousagi could match. Even if he couldn't compare to Akainu, he was still a true Admiral- level fighter. To kill such an extremely powerful opponent was undoubtedly a pipe dream.
However, unlike the battle on Sabaody Archipelago, Roy doesn't need to worry too much this time. He's all alone and doesn't need to worry about any Marine Admiral Fleet Admiral jumping out to interfere in the battle.
Moreover, Roy still has a large group of subordinates lingering in Dressrosa. Although ganging up on them is somewhat unreasonable, they are destined enemies. If we don't take this opportunity to eliminate them once and for all, are we going to wait until Issho joins the World Government and becomes Marine Admiral before we have to deal with this headache?
Yixiao is undoubtedly a powerful and respectable opponent, so it's better to kill such an enemy as soon as possible!
"Although I am not strong enough, it will not be so easy for Roy to take my life." Yi Xiao held the knife in reverse, the cold light of the Cane Sword in his hand flickering. "It's like a roulette wheel; until the very last moment, no one can know who will be the final winner."
"Is that so?" Roy gripped the Seven Star Sword in his hand, an eerie green light reflecting off his face, making him appear like the Lord of the Underworld who held the power of life and death. "But I foresaw your future from the very beginning. Your ultimate fate is—defeat and death!"
