Dressrosa, beneath a vast sunflower Flower Field.

The Hidden Headquarters of the King Riku's Rebellion:

"What!?"

"They actually turn people into toys and enslave them, and those who are turned into toys are forgotten by everyone?"

Luffy stood up angrily, "I'm going to go and beat that 'Sugar' thing to a pulp right now!!"

"No, no, no, she's just a little girl, let me go!"

Thanks to the blood-stained paper, the treatment for bruises, and the combined medical skills of Chopper and Law, Usopp, who was previously severely injured in one arm and one leg, is now lively and energetic again. Regarding the bullying of little girls, he says:

I know this one well!

"Usopp, your hands and feet can't withstand that kind of impact again, or they'll break!"

"Don't worry, I can easily take care of a mere little girl."

Great, very energetic!

I hope you don't get beaten up by Sugar.

Although Sugar maintains a childlike appearance due to her Devil Fruit ability, she is actually Monet's sister! Her Armament Haki is debatable, but her Observation Haki is definitely impressive, as evidenced by the fact that she effortlessly annihilated a group of incredibly fast Tontatta without missing a single one.

"Luffy, do you need my information?"

"Certainly,"

Apart from Nami and Brook guarding the Sunny Merry, everyone else had gathered here. Nami's abilities only work on the open sea, and Nami unfortunate close-combat skills meant she would have to be protected alone.

Brook, who is the fastest under normal circumstances, is the best choice. — Even if they encounter a strong enemy, as long as they can buy some time, Roman can immediately 'teleport' to the rescue.

Besides, this is the coast of an enemy country, and the Straw Hat crew isn't so careless as to abandon the Sunny Merry on the beach.

"So, based on the intelligence gathered by the young warriors of the Tontatta Kingdom, and the abilities of this... Princess Violet, along with my reconnaissance, I've concluded—"

As Roman's white dove flapped its wings, the 'feathers' that fell from its wings rustled and formed a white sand table, depicting crisscrossing buildings and streets, as well as chibi-style three-headed figures. It clearly showed the terrain of Dressrosa and the location of the Donquixote Family's executives.

!

"Amazing!"

"Exactly the same as the real Dressrosa..."

While the Tontatta warriors of the Tontatta Kingdom were expressing their feelings, Luo sighed.

The entire terrain is laid bare before them, and every move of every officer is mirrored on the sand table. With such terrifying reconnaissance capabilities, the odds of victory are instantly increased by 30%! After all, it's like one side has a 'full map cheat,' while the other is still groping their way through the fog of war...

We have three targets in total:

This is no longer an 'adventure' but a 'battle,' so Luffy certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to reject Roman's information. As for the others who have waited ten years: whether it's Law or the oppressed people of this country, they all desperately want Roman to reveal everything about them, so why would they complain about too much information?

"The first location is the 'Underground Factory' located directly beneath the palace."

Roman's white dove began pointing to the 'underground structure' exposed beneath the cracked sand table, explaining, "This is the underground trading market of Dressrosa, where all sorts of weapons and contraband are transported from here to all parts of the world via underground rivers. At the same time, one of the high-ranking officers, 'Trebol,' protects 'Sugar,' a key figure who can turn people into toys, from here."

Trebol originally had two subordinates, 'Violet' and 'Jora', but now one has defected and the other has been captured. This has left the 'BUG' team with only two members.

Art, childlike fun, staring...

"I'll go, let me go!"

Usopp was the first to raise his hand high. Compared to the Underground Factory with a sleazy man and a little girl, the other places were full of capable cadres.

"So, is there anyone else who wants to travel with Usopp?"

Um····

The other Straw Hat weren't too happy about this kind of bullying of the mentally challenged and little girls. Only Robin stepped forward, saying, "Let me go with Usopp."

"And us too! We are here!!"

A group of Tontatta, swayed by Usopp's boasting, already considered him a peerless hero. Of course, they wanted to follow him through thick and thin, and:

This is actually the heart of the whole plan!

If you can defeat Sugar, you can unleash a large number of Doflamingo's mortal enemies.

But... do you really think that just because Trebol looks bad, his strength is also bad?

Although Trebol is indeed the weakest among the senior officers, his speed, eyesight, and strength are all at a high level; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to control those who lost in the arena.

Forget it, let's just watch Usopp and Robin's performance.

"Then there's the second one: the factory entrance at 'House of Toys'."

"Because the Donquixote Family did not know that we could enter the factory through the secret passage, they deployed most of their troops at the visible entrance."

"The four 'military' executives, Rao G., Mahal baz, Dellinger, and Senor Pique, are all gathered here. We must send some people to hold them off, otherwise, once we start dealing with Sugar, their executives will immediately enter the factory and attack from both sides."

These four are all seasoned veterans with consistently high combat prowess. Rao G and Dellinger, in particular, possess fighting strength approaching that of high-ranking officers!

"The militant faction?"

"Who cares what it is, I'll blow that factory to smithereens!"

Sanji and Franky perked up, and Chopper hesitated for a moment before standing up as well.

"Very good, the last one is the third place: the royal palace!"

All that's left in the Straw Hat crew are Luffy and Zoro, so naturally, the most dangerous place is left to them.

"Donquixote Doflamingo, the 'King,' is located here, as are the 'Special Forces,' whose limits are extremely wide: first, the last senior executive, 'Pica,' then 'Gladius,' 'Baby-5,' and 'Buffalo.'"

These guys' Devil Fruit are the kind that can unleash tremendous power under special circumstances, but become weak after a few powerful attacks, which is why they are Doflamingo's bodyguards.

"If word gets here that we're attacking the 'Underground Factory,' it's hard to say whether they'll stay put or come out in full force. So someone has to keep them in check, at least to prevent them from supporting the factory."

"At the same time, there is also a most troublesome person here."

With a solemn expression, the white dove flapped its wing, and a blind man in a navy coat appeared in the royal palace.

"Marine Admiral Fujitora smiled!"

"Although he's unwilling to help Doflamingo, due to his status as a 'Shichibukai,' he'll at most let us off the hook when we're dealing with them..."

Furthermore, if the darkness of Dressrosa hadn't erupted, Fujitora wouldn't want to see the Shichibukai die at the hands of a group of 'pirates'. Because that would give the other kings the illusion that the 'Shichibukai' were fighting desperately against pirates...

"I'm going to the palace too,"

After emergency treatment and various methods to restore health and stamina, Luo, who was almost fully recovered, stepped forward.

"The White Knight will lead the attack on the palace, with me, the Straw Hat, and Zoro in charge."

While Law's abilities are incredibly powerful against weaker opponents, his best role is actually as a support in team battles. —Just the ability to teleport teammates at will is ridiculously strong! Imagine Gear Fourth Gear Luffy or a charged Zoro hitting you in the face—are you scared yet?

"So that's the plan."

White Dove's Summary

"Leave the arena to Sabo and me. We'll come to your aid as soon as we get the Mera Mera no Mi."

As for the enemies in the arena? Roman didn't take them seriously at all, and the Straw Hat crew had complete confidence in Roman. —If there were any truly formidable opponents, Roman wouldn't be in his current state.

So far, Roman's combat capabilities and intelligence have been as reliable as ever. This time is no exception:

"Very good, then let's split into three groups and set off!"

Luffy stood up, gave a summary, and then:

"Roman, take me and Zoro to the palace!!"

·······

"Let Luo take you two directionally challenged people there. I'm about to get 'busy' here."

Boom!!

A giant Fighting Fish suddenly crashed into the arena, causing the entire arena to shake.

"As you can see, these are completely different 'Fighting Fish' from before; they are the leaders of various Fighting Fish groups! In the face of them, everything else is meaningless; only absolute power can subdue them—in the form of corpses!"

A tall man, dressed like an indigenous tribe, wearing a fur-trimmed hat, with two facial markings, and a red cloak, began to explain the rules of the final battle.

"The Mera Mera no Mi is tied to a box on the back of one of the Fighting Fish. Whoever gets the Mera Mera no Mi and stands still in the arena is the winner!"

"Then—the match begins!!"

Wearing a helmet, cape, fake beard, and wielding a steel pipe, 'Lucy'; dressed as a mysterious magician, 'Neo'; Bartolomeo, the Straw Hat crew Pirates' number one fanboy; Burgess, the first captain of the Blackbeard Pirates; and Diamante, one of the high-ranking officers of the Doflamingo family, each stood on the arena.

"Hahaha, the Mera Mera no Mi is mine!"

Faced with Burgess's hearty laughter, Roman rolled his eyes from behind his mask.

Laugh, laugh. — Because you'll soon be unable to laugh anymore.

"Heh, it seems like none of you take me, the 'Arena Hero,' seriously."

Diamante? Sorry, you're a cripple who's been wasting ten years of his life, don't embarrass yourself by getting beaten in a one-on-one fight. In short:

"Lucy, come and steal the Mera Mera no Mi."

"I'll take care of these two guys!"

As for Bartolomeo?

Just shout '666' from the side.
