Conqueror's Haki!
The kingly potential possessed by one in a million!
A power he himself had never attained, yet this inexplicable brat actually possessed it?
Bullet's eyes widened, filled with disbelief!
This was the same power as Lord Roa!
This brat, this brat who was as weak as a stray dog!!
What a joke!
Why him?
Why did he awaken a power that even I never possessed?
Could it be that I'm not even as good as him? Will I have to be subservient to him from now on?
Will he be Lord Roa's chief follower in the future?
Such a thing will never be permitted!!
Extreme and intense rage bloomed in Bullet's heart at that moment.
He was a soldier loyal only to Lord Roa, but at the same time, he considered himself a strong individual second only to Lord Roa!
And now, this guy seemed to be climbing above him!
Because of Roa's intervention, Bullet, who had never experienced such a significant setback, was plunged into an unprecedented extreme emotional state.
"Hmm?"
Roa turned his head back in surprise.
What's going on?
Why does Bullet possess an anger comparable to Doflamingo's? And even an indescribable jealousy?
Then.
"Buzzz!!"
A terrifying aura surged out like a tsunami.
Huh?
Roa was a bit bewildered.
What's going on?
Is there some kind of resonance when Conqueror's Haki awakens?
With Bullet's strength, his awakened Conqueror's Haki was no mere child's play like Doflamingo's. Passersby far down the street coughed up foam and fainted, and residents in the houses lining the street also suffered undeserved disaster.
Even Doflamingo, who was excited about obtaining powerful strength, felt his head go blank, as if he'd been punched hard in the head, staggering backward.
"Alright, Bullet, you've shown off enough,"
Roa spoke out, "Tone it down a bit. Can't you see your new colleague is about to collapse?"
Only then did Bullet realize that he had also awakened Conqueror's Haki.
The anger and jealousy in his heart vanished in an instant.
"My apologies, Lord Roa, I got a little too excited!"
Bullet's face was indeed unable to hide his excitement as he somewhat clumsily reined in his Conqueror's Haki.
This was only natural!
Of course, he would also be a wielder of Conqueror's Haki!
The Conqueror's Haki released by Doflamingo had completely dissipated. After all, he was truly weak, and his Conqueror's Haki was meager in both quality and quantity.
He looked at Bullet with some trepidation.
He didn't know what Conqueror's Haki was, but he knew that this guy was incredibly strong!
"So, Doflamingo,"
Roa said earnestly, "You've obtained your power. What should you do next?"
Doflamingo froze for a moment, then his lips curved upwards, "Fufufufu! That's right! That's right! Now I can finally go and properly repay those guys!!"
The little child's face wore a crazed smile.
Roa watched and shook his head.
Alas, the original family.
"Doflamingo, the ability you possess is called the Paramecia Combination Fruit, granting you the power to combine all non-living things. Use it well, and don't disappoint me."
Roa said meaningfully.
"Combine?"
Doflamingo nodded slightly, "Fufufufu! Understood!"
He looked up at Roa, "I know where this city's arsenal is, take me there!"
Roa nodded in satisfaction, A good idea.
"Jensen, go with him."
Roa said, "Protect him, don't let him die, but if he tries to break his promise and run, cut off his head."
Jensen, devoid of consciousness, acted purely on instinct, and Roa's commands were instincts etched into his very genes.
Doflamingo subconsciously glanced at Jensen.
When he met those eyes, like black holes devoid of any light, he involuntarily shivered.
What kind of monster is this?
But it didn't matter, whatever monster it was, as long as it could help him, anything was fine!
Doflamingo took off like a shot, and Jensen leaped across the rooftops, chasing after him.
"What do you think of this kid? Bullet?"
Roa asked casually, watching Doflamingo's retreating figure.
Bullet froze for a moment, falling into hesitation.
Should I tell the truth?
Will Lord Roa get angry?
But, as Lord Roa's loyal dog, he absolutely could not lie to him.
Bullet said gravely, "Although he's awakened Conqueror's Haki, there's nothing particularly amazing about him."
"Hahahaha! That's an accurate assessment, Bullet!"
Roa burst into laughter, "Doflamingo is all bark and no bite."
A second-rate Doflamingo, paired with a second-rate Combination Fruit, is quite a fitting match.
Better than the String-String Fruit, right?
At least the Combination Fruit can genuinely increase one's strength significantly.
"Let's go, let's walk around some more."
Roa said.
He had been in this world for thirteen years, and he rarely walked through such a normal city anymore.
It was either resort islands like Beehive Island or hellish lands like the Land of Endless War; the simple, everyday life of ordinary people felt so distant.
However, this leisurely stroll didn't last long.
BOOM!
An explosion suddenly sounded in the distance.
Then, terrified screams, like waves, rose one after another, gradually approaching from afar.
Roa took a deep breath, "Hmm, not bad, Doflamingo!"
In the center of this small city.
A steel monster was spewing flames indiscriminately.
This monster was over two meters tall, entirely constructed of steel, with numerous gun barrels and cannons on its surface.
At this moment, bullets shot from the gun barrels and cannonballs flew from the cannons, bringing destruction and death to this place without restraint.
The city's soldiers hadn't failed to try and fight back, but their steel body was simply not something they could damage.
"Fufufufufu! Die, all of you! Scum!"
Doflamingo's maniacal laughter echoed from within the steel monster.
This is power!
To be able to trample on others at will, instead of being trampled upon!
This is what I wanted! Now, this is the scene I want!
Revenge on these scum who killed Mother and made me suffer!
"Repent your sins in hell! You bastards!!"
Although large beads of sweat had formed on his forehead and his stamina was severely depleted, Doflamingo still didn't want to stop.
His anger, his resentment, were far from being fully vented!
However, it was at this moment.
"Doflamingo!!"
A hoarse roar came from behind.
Doflamingo froze for a moment, then instantly turned around.
In the distance, a gaunt, disheveled middle-aged man cried out pleadingly, "Enough! Revenge is enough! Don't continue any further! Don't let the chain of hatred continue!"
"Dad?"
Doflamingo's body stiffened, then trembled all over. "Right! Right!! I almost forgot!"
The mechanical monster suddenly turned and strode toward the rear.
"I almost forgot the root of all my hatred!!"
The man froze, then showed a relieved expression.
"It's all your fault!!"
Roaring, all his anger finally erupted like a volcano at that moment.
Goodbye, Dad, and goodbye to my weakness!
