Nothing But Benefits, Aside from Having No Practical Meaning!

Doflamingo brought Trafalgar Law into the Donquixote Family, along with his sister Lami.

In the lounge, Doflamingo is listening to a report from a doctor from the Donquixote Family.

"Trafalgar Law's health is not good. His Lead-Platinum Disease has started to manifest. He is eight years old this year and has about five years left to live. His sister's condition is slightly worse than his, and she should also live for about five years..." The doctor reported to Doflamingo after examining Trafalgar Law.

Doflamingo swirled his wine glass, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes behind his sunglasses upon hearing this. But quickly, he asked again, "Although many doctors have confirmed it, I still want to ask, is it really beyond cure?"

The Donquixote Family doctor shook his head and said, "With conventional medical methods, there is absolutely no possibility of saving him. Lead-Platinum Disease, theoretically speaking, is not a natural disease, but an extremely rare, hereditary, deep-seated form of metal poisoning..."

Previously, Doflamingo had little interest in learning about Lead-Platinum Disease; he only knew that it was incurable, but he didn't really know why. Now, however, he was paying more attention to Trafalgar Law and was therefore more curious, so he asked, "Tell me more about it."

"According to current research, at the moment Lead-Platinum are mined, when the Lead-Platinum encased in rock are exposed to the air, they release a certain amount of trace amounts of toxic metallic gas within a very short time. Ingestion of this gas in small areas has almost no effect on the human body and is extremely difficult to detect. However, Lead-Platinum mining in Flevance has a history of over two hundred years, which is the reason why almost the entire population of Flevance suffers from Lead-Platinum Disease..."

"Generally speaking, as long as the levels of metallic toxins ingested are not excessive, they will not have any special effects and will be slowly excreted from the body through metabolism, restoring health. However, Lead-Platinum and lead toxins can completely integrate into the human body in an incredible way and can be inherited. As a result, they accumulate from generation to generation until today, Lead-Platinum Disease is considered incurable. The difficulty in treating it lies in its deep integration with the patient. Conventional medical methods cannot 'excrete' these metallic toxins from the body. Without the removal of Lead-Platinum and lead will continue to affect the health of the patient's organs. When the organs completely fail, that is the moment the patient dies." The doctor gave a general explanation of the situation of Lead-Platinum Disease.

"So, according to you, are there any unconventional methods that might be able to treat Lead-Platinum Disease?" Doflamingo asked after thinking for a moment.

"Theoretically, if there were sufficiently high-precision medical devices, the trace amounts of Lead-Platinum and lead attached to various organs in the patient's body could be removed little by little through a process, and this condition could be cured. However, this method is clearly not universal, and I have never heard of any related medical devices being developed..." the doctor replied.

Seeing Doflamingo nod in understanding, he continued, "There's another possibility: special Devil Fruit. Devil Fruit. Medical Devil Fruit are especially diverse. If a suitable Devil Fruit is available, it might be possible to do this as well. This is what I meant by 'theoretically.' Theoretically, Lead-Platinum Disease has a solution: various methods can be introduced into the patient's body to help them expel the Lead-Platinum, thus achieving a cure."

Doflamingo nodded knowingly, then said, "I understand... You can go ahead and get back to work."

He didn't insist that his doctor cure Trafalgar Law. The doctor had already made it clear that there was currently no effective way to cure Lead-Platinum Disease unless there was a high-precision special instrument to assist in the treatment, or some suitable Devil Fruit ability could be introduced to treat it.

Otherwise, Lead-Platinum Disease is incurable.

After the doctor left, Doflamingo leaned back on the sofa, silently pondering... It seemed that high-precision instruments might be possible. The Marines possessed the legendary strongest scientist, Dr. Vegapunk. With Dr. Vegapunk's abilities, it should be possible to develop an instrument that could treat Lead-Platinum Disease.

If they were to ask Ortolan for help, perhaps with Ortolan's connections and influence, they could get assistance from Dr. Vegapunk.

In fact, Doflamingo was not wrong about this. Although Dr. Vegapunk was a great scientist, his research on biological science was also very thorough, otherwise he could not have come up with the Lineage Factor.

In the story, Jade Scale, who was once called 'hopeless,' was cured by Dr. Vegapunk, which shows that he is indeed capable in this area.

Besides seeking Ortolan's help, Doflamingo is also thinking about a solution to the Devil Fruit. The legendary 'Ope Ope no Mi' that can cure a disease should also be able to do this, right?

Doflamingo is still interested in Ope Ope no Mi. Over the years, the Donquixote Family has been trading Devil Fruit in the underworld. This business also carries some special responsibilities, namely, helping the Donquixote Family find excellent Devil Fruit.

Only abilities that Doflamingo doesn't value will end up in the market; the good Devil Fruit are all absorbed internally.

Like that Logia-type, Yuki Yuki Mimi, and so on.

The Ope Ope no Mi is that it is one of Doflamingo's key targets. As True Celestial Dragon of the Yellow Banner from Mary Geoise who descended to Earth, Doflamingo knows many secrets that ordinary people do not know. One of them is that the Ope Ope no Mi may contain the power to grant immortality!

Of course, Doflamingo had only heard about this and had never had any concrete examples to confirm it, but that didn't stop him from being full of anticipation for it.

If Trafalgar Rowe's Lead-Platinum Disease can be cured through Ope Ope no Mi, then perhaps this favor, coupled with the fact that he has been raised and trained by her since childhood, will ensure Trafalgar Rowe's loyalty.

Once he had trained Trafalgar Law to Awakening his Ope Ope no Mi abilities, Doflamingo felt confident that he could make Law willingly offer him immortality!

This is a win-win situation!

"First, try as Ope Ope no Mi one to treat Law. This would be more beneficial to me. If the results are not ideal, then try asking Ortolan to see if he can use Vegapunk's power to solve this problem..." After thinking for a moment, Doflamingo finally sorted out his thoughts.

Of course, this line of thinking is only an ideal scenario, and there may not be any Ope Ope no Mi to be found. Perhaps even Dr. Vegapunk cannot solve the problem of Lead-Platinum Disease.

But how much of an impact will these things have on Doflamingo?

There was no profound impact; it was merely a matter of doing it on a whim. If it succeeded, he would certainly gain something worthwhile; if it failed, at most he would only lose Trafalgar Law.

It can be said that there is virtually no cost involved.

Meanwhile, inside Rosinante's house, after confirming that the environment was safe, Rosinante activated his ability and immediately contacted Admiral Sengoku of the Marine Headquarters via Den Den Mushi.

"Admiral, I've made another discovery!" Rosinante reported quickly after connecting to the Den Den Mushi, without even a greeting. "The Donquixote Family is currently mining Lead-Platinum in large quantities in Flevance, and is secretly trading this mineral, which has extremely high military value, to the Big Mom Pirates in the New World Warships through smuggling. Moreover, they recently completed their first deal with the Beasts Pirates. I believe this kind of transaction will, to some extent, promote the development of weaponry technology by the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates, posing a certain threat and impact on the future of our Marines..."

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Admiral Sengoku listened to the report with a somewhat speechless expression. He wanted to tell Rosinante, "You said that this matter was arranged by me, Ortolan facilitated it. There's no need to report it."

However, considering that Rosinante's level was not qualified to know these secrets, the Admiral Sengoku sighed with a hint of helplessness, then said in a serious tone, "Well done, little brother. This intelligence is extremely important to us. I will record your merit. From now on, you will continue to infiltrate the Don Donquixote Family to gather information. Report to me in a timely manner if there is any progress."

Upon hearing that he had rendered meritorious service and contributed to justice, Rosinante responded with slight excitement, "Yes, Admiral!"

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, the Admiral Sengoku shook his head, pondered for a moment, and then made a note for Rosinante in the merit book, thinking to himself, "Your development of the Don Donquixote Family has broken my heart."

However, Admiral Sengoku is still satisfied with Rosinante's current situation. As an undercover agent for the Donquixote Family, his safety can be guaranteed. After all, even if he is exposed, Doflamingo will have to give the Marines face, give Sengoku face, and give Ortolan face. He won't kill Rosinante; at most, he will put him under house arrest.

At the same time, he can also give Rosinante some experience and credit, even if this guy didn't investigate any intelligence, it doesn't matter.

He didn't investigate. As his old friend, I can take the initiative to write down some information in the merit book and report. Let's just say that he secretly inquired and reported it. Anyway, we know everything about the Donquixote Family, right?

When he is exposed in the future, or when he returns from the mission, he can use these merits to promote Rosinante openly and legitimately, and no one can say that he got promoted through back channels, right?

It saved his pride and also saved my face as Marine Admiral. It was a win-win situation. This undercover operation was a great success. Apart from having no practical significance, it was all about benefits!
