North Blue.

On the coast of an island.

A war is underway.

It's the Revolutionary Army again.

This group of people, who never lost hope of resistance, once again launched an uprising on this island in the North Blue.

Therefore, it was only natural that the pirates under the control of the Calamity Company rushed to suppress them.

The rebels and pirates clashed fiercely on the coast.

Of course, the "intense" mentioned here refers to the pirates' one-sided and fierce slaughter of the rebel army.

"Roar!!"

A gigantic dinosaur, its body covered in thick scales, roared and rampaged across the battlefield.

Covered in Armament Haki, he was like a runaway train, with nothing able to stop him in the slightest.

"Why resist at all!"

The giant dinosaur, captain of the Drake Pirates, now a pirate under the Calamity Company, Drake swung his massive body, his thick, log-like tail sending a swarm of rebels flying.

The roar of the giant dinosaur was like thunder, "Why do you still resist the Boss?! Your only fate is death!!"

Although he had become Roa's accomplice, and although he was still loyal to Roa.

However, because Roa did not change his personality, Drake is still the upright Marine deep down—well, if we remove the most basic logic of Roa's supremacy.

Therefore, even though he was there to carry out a massacre, his feelings were still somewhat complicated as he looked at these people who were rushing to resist at all costs.

Certainly.

This doesn't stop Drake from wreaking havoc here.

My feelings are complicated, but defying the boss is tantamount to committing suicide.

Behind the battlefield, on a pirate ship moored on the shore.

Rosinante was talking to someone on the Den Den Mushi, thinking, "If I directly tell Doflamingo that I want to go to their hideout, it will probably arouse suspicion immediately."

Rather than saying that the man gradually trusted me over the course of the year, it's more accurate to say that he gradually lost interest in me and stopped targeting me specifically.

"So, Rosinante, what are you planning to do?"

The deep voice of Fleet Admiral Sengoku came through the Den Den Mushi.

I need a proper reason!

Rosinante took a deep breath and said solemnly, "There's a reason I absolutely must see Roa in person!"

"Now is a perfect opportunity, Mr. Sengoku!"

Rosinante raised his head and looked at the battlefield on the shore.

The pirates, led by Drake, are wreaking havoc.

Drake alone is already far beyond the capabilities of these ordinary people in the North Blue, let alone with the help of the Fish-Man Unit.

The rebels had been utterly routed; it was a true massacre.

Rosinante watched the massacre, a hint of sorrow in his voice, "Mr. Sengoku, we're helping Roa slaughter those who dare to resist again!"

"Rosinante-- "

The tone of the Sengoku became somewhat complex.

He certainly knew what his adopted son had been doing over the past year.

That upright and passionate young man was forced to bear countless sins.

But there's no other way.

These are necessary sacrifices in order to defeat Roa and truly save the world.

"How about we use this as a reason, Mr. Sengoku?"

Rosinante suddenly lowered his voice, his tone filled with a do-or-die determination, "The cause and effect is that I finally could no longer tolerate such heinous acts of slaughtering innocent people."

"Even if it costs me all my comrades' lives, I want to try to change all of this!"

"Rosinante!! You!"

The tone of the Sengoku suddenly rose.

Rosinante acted as if he hadn't heard him, and continued talking to himself, "But even if a nobody like me risked my life, I probably wouldn't be able to get Roa to even glance at me!"

"So, I need another bargaining chip! Since Roa is collecting Devil Fruit User, how about a powerful enough Devil Fruit? Would Roa be tempted by that?"

"The reason is that I found a powerful Devil Fruit, and I want to use it to make a deal with Roa, hoping he will be more lenient with this sea! At least with some of the islands!"

"Rosinante!!"

Sengoku cried out in alarm, even forgetting to lower his voice for concealment, "What are you saying? That's far too dangerous!!"

Face Roa!

And he even had to confront Roa directly!

Given Roa's petty and narrow-minded nature, even without discovering Rosinante's identity, he would probably have reduced him to ashes in an instant!

So what if we actually find the headquarters of the Calamity Company?

My beloved son is gone forever!

"Mr. Sengoku!"

Rosinante raised his voice as well, almost shouting angrily, "Calm down! Is there a better way now?!"

"The secrecy surrounding Calamity Company is exceptionally tight! It's absolutely impossible to find their headquarters through normal means!"

"After all, neither Drake nor I are strong enough to be noticed by that monster Roa, and we have no chance to enter that place openly!"

Sengoku remained silent on the other end of the phone.

By now, he understands it very well.

Aside from the monsters he trusted and his subordinates, Roa was surrounded only by the kidnapped scientist, the shipwright, and the androids who were incapable of revealing any information!

It would be absolutely impossible to infiltrate Roa's inner circle using normal methods.

Even if Rosinante is Doflamingo's brother, it doesn't matter.

Sengoku's rapid breathing came from the mouth of the Den Den Mushi.

After a long silence, Rosinante finally heard a weary voice, "Rosinante, are you really sure about your decision?"

"For justice, Mr. Sengoku!"

Rosinante stated firmly, "The education I received from you since childhood supports my decision!"

"Rosinante..."

Sengoku's voice trembled slightly, "You child..."

"I understand. Since this is your own decision, I have no choice but to support you!"

"Let's proceed according to your plan!"

"Yes, Mr. Sengoku!"

Rosinante nodded heavily on the other end of the phone. "I need a Devil Fruit that's rare enough! Only then might I have a chance to impress Roa and get him to see me!"

"No problem!"

Without hesitation, Sengoku said, "I'll go and apply to my superiors right away! We need to cherish this, right? Logia... no, let's just go with the Mythical Zoan!"

"Even for a monster like Roa, a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit should be enough to make him make an exception!"

"That's wonderful, Mr. Sengoku!"

Rosinante exclaimed with delight, "That might really work!"

"If I manage to infiltrate the Calamity Company's hideout, I'll find a way to leave my Vivre Card there!"

Rosinante said, "I will fight to live! Until you find Roa!"

"Alright! Rosinante, remember your words, you must survive at all costs!"

Sengoku's voice clearly carried a slight sob, "You must be safe and sound!"

"We will definitely win! Everyone will safely usher in a new era!"

"Justice will surely triumph over evil! Roa will surely be defeated! We will surely win!"

"Yes!!"

Rosinante nodded solemnly.

The call ended.

Rosinante slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he raised his right hand and wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes.

"Oh, Rosinante, are you crying?"

A slightly surprised voice sounded from beside me.

Rosinante looked up. Drake had finished the fight on the shore and was now squatting on the gunwale, looking down at him with great interest.

Rosinante's black and white eyes trembled, and his eyes were red-rimmed.

He wiped away tears from the corners of his eyes and said slowly, "The thought of Mr. Sengoku being killed makes me feel sad."

There's nothing we can do about it.

Drake sighed and patted Rosinante on the shoulder.

"Since we're going to fight the Boss, then there's only one path left: death."

"Well."

Rosinante sighed deeply, "Mr. Sengoku, I will never forget your kindness."

Gratitude is gratitude, but when it comes to the Boss, that's a different story.

"Anyway, everything went smoothly, right?"

Drake had a smile on his face.

"Um."

Rosinante nodded. "We can begin reporting to our superiors now."

"In that case, the final battle can officially begin!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Drake laughed heartily, "Then let's witness Boss's victory firsthand!!"

In the palace where Roa resides in the Calamity City.

"Fufufufu!"

Doflamingo chuckled incoherently, his laughter so exaggerated that the feather cloak draped over his shoulders almost fell off.

"Boss, Sengoku has agreed to Rosinante's plan. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to obtain another powerful Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit before the official start of the war!"

"That's great!"

Roa, who was feeding the fish, didn't turn around, but his voice was full of laughter, "The android Teach's Devil Fruit just happened to be incomplete, so maybe this can be completed."

When the Fallen Angel Teach was mentioned, Doflamingo's smile dimmed slightly.

The original Teach was one thing, but the clone, the Fallen Angel Teach, was even more monstrous.

How long has she been born? Her strength has already surpassed everyone else's!

The other Fallen Angel are similar!

They're all monsters!

In that case, will Calamity Company still have a place to exist?

Doflamingo has never forgotten; the Boss hates useless people.

"Letting your brother go back then was the best decision you could have made, Doflamingo,"

Roa laughed and said, "I knew it! Even a pair of underwear or a piece of toilet paper has its time to come in handy. Isn't this the perfect example?"

"Fufufufu!"

Doflamingo's smile widened instantly. "That idiot Rosinante is honored to have sacrificed his life for you, Boss!"

Roa just smiled.

It's very close; the final battle with Imu is really just around the corner.

However, upon further reflection, it seems that both sides are now moving in the same direction!

Imu is searching for his whereabouts, and he is also searching for Imu's whereabouts.

Haha, both sides want to strike first and catch the other off guard!

But now it seems, Imu, you're in for some trouble.

However, the reason why Imu has been holding back for more than two years, chose to launch the final battle at this moment is probably because he has already gained enough power.

At least that's what that guy himself believed—the power that could lead to victory!

If Níðhöggr is in Shanks' hands, then he can only be Uranus?

In other words, has Vegapunk already developed an energy source that can revive Uranus?

Ah, I was fooled by that big head after all.

This is truly unbelievable; even honest and upright scientists have learned to lie.

Next time we meet, I'll make sure he seriously reflects on his actions.

In short, Imu, will you fall for it?

However, it doesn't seem to matter much even if we haven't been fooled. Once all the artificial satellites are deployed, Imu won't be able to hide for long.

Meanwhile, Roa was also in the midst of intense preparations for battle.

Above another part of the sky in this world, inside the enormous weapon that was known as Uranus of the Gods, eight hundred years ago.

The figure seated high on the throne silently looked down at the three kneeling figures below.

"So, you need a Devil Fruit?"

The King of the World spoke slowly.

We believe it's worth a gamble!

Bald-headed Warcury solemnly declared, "If Rosinante can successfully reach the Calamity Company's lair, then it will be a victory for us!"

Even if he fails, our loss is only one Devil Fruit!

"If that's the case, then so be it."

Imu nodded slowly.

The Celestial Dragons have no shortage of Devil Fruit.

While Logia and even Mythical Zoan are very rare, they are not entirely unavailable.

Just as Warcury said, in any case, even if we fail, it's just the loss of a Devil Fruit.

World Government can afford it.

No one doubted Rosinante's loyalty.

Even Imu, who witnessed Roa turning Harald into a demon during the Battle of Mary Geoise, never imagined that Rosinante would be turned against him.

They had no idea what the new version of the changui would look like.

I never imagined that Rosinante's identity was exposed from the very beginning.

Soon enough, the anxious Sengoku received the reply from above.

This reply left him with very mixed feelings.

But he immediately called Rosinante.

"Your plan has been approved. The Devil Fruit will be delivered to the North Blue as soon as possible! The government's agents will deliver the fruit to you in a very logical way!"

"In short, Rosinante, everything is in your hands!"

"Yes! Leave it all to me, Mr. Sengoku!"

"Take good care of yourself."

Then, almost two minutes later, Roa also received the news.

"So you finally fell for it?"

"In that case, let's begin!"

A great battle is imminent!
