Senga did not return directly to Marine Headquarters; he changed his mind midway.
He thought of Dressrosa, a country similar to Alabasta, where he had heard that strange dolls had recently appeared inexplicably, and that they could move and talk.
Senga naturally understood the situation with those dolls; they must have been made by Sugar, one of Doflamingo's subordinates.
Sugar is Paramecia Hobby-Hobby Devil Fruit User. This fruit belongs to the Rule-type Paramecia. Her ability is to turn any creature she touches into a toy and make others forget the memories of the person who was turned into a toy.
It also has a drawback that can hardly be called a flaw: after eating it, the Ability User will stop developing and be frozen at the time when they ate the fruit.
Sugar is the fruit she ate when she was a child, so even though she is already twenty-two years old, she still looks like a child.
Putting aside the aforementioned drawbacks, this fruit is indeed a decent Devil Fruit. Senga plans to retrieve it; even if he doesn't eat it himself, he can leave it for those around him.
As for Sugar, Senga wouldn't take her life. Although she was already twenty-two years old, she was still a child, both mentally and physically, and Senga didn't want to harm a child.
As for Momonosuke? He's not a human child, so is it wrong to harm him?
Having made up her mind, Senga spoke to Robin within the Door-Door Space.
"Robin, I'm going to Dressrosa now. Are you interested?"
"Dressrosa? I heard that's Doflamingo's territory now. Does he have some kind of weakness that his master has caught him in?"
"Haha, I guess so. That place is known as the 'Land of Love and Passion,' so we can take a look around."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Robin certainly wouldn't object to Senga's suggestion; she had finally found a safe haven where she could feel at ease, so of course she would cherish it.
The words "love and passion" made Robin blush slightly. Although there was no one in the Door-Door Space, Robin still peeked at Senga outside the Door-Door Space like a thief, and then quickly lowered her head.
Senga was unaware of Robin's actions. After seeing that Robin had agreed, he immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew off in one direction.
Dressrosa, the King's Highland
Doflamingo, dressed in a pink sable coat, sat on the throne that King Riku, one hand on his forehead, staring expressionlessly at a woman below.
The woman had long, dark brown hair and wore a purple pleated skirt. She was looking down at Doflamingo above her.
She was originally the princess of Dressrosa, but her country was usurped by Doflamingo, and her father, King Riku, went from being a beloved king to a Nezumi, and is now imprisoned in a warehouse.
She was noticed by Doflamingo because of her exceptional intelligence-gathering abilities Door-Door Fruit, and became one of his assassins.
She hated Doflamingo to the core, but in order to protect her father's life, she had no choice but to become her enemy's subordinate.
Her face, hidden by her hair, was as cold as ice, but her tone remained completely unwavering.
"Dover, the mission objective has been achieved. Do you have any further instructions?"
Doflamingo remained silent, but his brow furrowed.
Normally, he would have enjoyed watching Violet's expression of wanting to kill him but failing, but for some reason, he had a bad feeling about today.
Therefore, he lost interest in Yin Yang Violet and simply waved his hand casually, signaling Violet to step back.
Violet was also puzzled by Doflamingo's unusual behavior today.
In her memory, Doflamingo always had that kind of expression on his face whenever he saw her, making you want to punch him, and he would also say a few sarcastic things about her.
He seemed unusually docile today, as if something had happened.
But this is good, Violet finally has some peace and quiet, and she turns to leave.
Doflamingo suddenly called out to her, saying,
"Have you thought that through? If you agree, I'll consider releasing your father, fufufu..."
Violet paused, her back to Doflamingo, and said, "I'll consider it," before quickening her pace and leaving the oppressive palace.
After fleeing the palace as if in a hurry, Violet appeared at the palace gate with two lines of tears on her face.
Doflamingo's offer was to make her his woman, on the condition that he release her father.
This condition is undeniably tempting, but the price to pay is extremely high.
Violet could accept becoming Doflamingo's subordinate, but she was extremely resistant to becoming his woman.
Dressrosa is known as the land of "love and passion," where people value love highly. The more beautiful a woman is, the more serious she is about love; once she commits to someone, she will stay with them for life.
Therefore, this country frequently experiences extreme events caused by betrayal.
Violet, as the princess of Dressrosa, is exceptionally beautiful and has a stunning figure. How could she possibly accept being made the woman of her enemy?
Moreover, despite her pride and arrogance, she harbored feelings for someone else. Although she had never met that person, she often paid attention to him, especially during this dark time, when that figure had become a source of comfort for her.
But the thought of her father, imprisoned in the warehouse and suffering endless humiliation, filled Violet with immense inner turmoil.
This is an unsolvable problem, and it seems that she has no choice but to give in.
With a heavy sigh, Violet shook her head to shake off these annoying things, wanting to go for a stroll in the streets to temporarily relax her depressed mood.
Lovers' Avenue
This place is similar to the couples' street on Blue Star, and many couples like to stroll here.
On the wide street, among a group of men and women, one couple stood out.
The girl had a healthy tan, and she wore a purple ballet dress that perfectly suited the Dressrosa style. She had a graceful figure and a stunningly beautiful face.
The man beside her was even more outstanding; his skin was so fair that some girls felt inferior to him.
He wore a black robe with a ping-pong paddle pattern printed on the back, and his black hair was casually tied up.
What's most unforgettable is his face. Let's put it this way: among all the handsome men and beautiful women on this entire street, his face is universally appealing.
What's strange, however, is that the boy has a decorative horn on the right side of his forehead that occasionally glimmers with light.
The couple Senga and Robin, who had come to Dressrosa. Instead of rushing to find Doflamingo, Senga took Robin to this famous lovers' street in Dressrosa.
Robin linked arms with Senga, and the two strolled leisurely along Lovers' Avenue like a couple deeply in love.
