Leave, Continue to the Next Step!

Some time later, one day, in the royal palace.

Several Hell Pirates, led by Oboro, were having a meal with members of the Donquixote Family.

On the long dining table, there were exquisite tableware and a variety of delicious dishes.

Compared to the Donquixote Family's 'refined' and elegant way of eating, the Hell Pirates' side appeared much more rugged, even to the point of being described as wolfing down their food.

The chefs and waiters were constantly running around, busy going out.

"That Straw Hat is really daring... Although the Marine Headquarters has moved, it won't be slow for the Marines to get there."

"I never expected even One Piece. Roger's right-hand man to show up, fufufu..."

Doflamingo opened a newspaper and let out a strange laugh.

The above content is from the site of Marineford yesterday... On the now-destroyed island, Luffy, wrapped in bandages, places his straw hat on his chest, seemingly mourning his friends who died here.

Luffy and his crew released the news in advance, attracting many reporters who managed to capture this 'highlight moment'.

Besides Rayleigh, Jinbe, the knight of the sea, was also with Jinbe.

However, Marineford now more thoroughly destroyed than in the original story... Marine Headquarters' clock is long gone, so Luffy chose to use other methods to commemorate the dead. But the 3D2Y on his arm is still clearly visible... Apart from the scattered Straw Hat Pirates members, probably only a vague understanding of the hidden meaning of this character is known.

3D was marked with an "X".

On the Hell Pirates' side, only a few members came to the gathering to discuss their plans; not all of them were present.

Crocodile, for example, seems to dislike Doflamingo very much, and even after arriving in Dressrosa, he has hardly ever met the Joker.

"Rayleigh seems to think highly of the Straw Hat..."

Doflamingo glanced meaningfully at Oboro.

If we're talking about the Worst Generation right now, besides Oboro and Marshall D. Teach, the one with the biggest reputation is Straw Hat Luffy.

"You guys seem to have a grudge against Straw Hat?"

Seeing that Long didn't react, Doflamingo added another sentence.

"With your abilities, you should have been able to kill him long ago, right? Why did you leave him until now? Because of his identity?"

"No, it's just not the right time yet."

Long picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth.

"Fufufu... You really dare to lay a hand on him? He's Garp's grandson, and the son of Dragon of the Revolutionary Army... Garp doesn't matter, but the Revolutionary Army... The danger those guys pose is something even the World Government is extremely wary of. In some ways, the Revolutionary Army's unique structure and form of existence are more 'lethal' to the Celestial Dragons than your Hell Pirates... They are the only group that can truly dismantle the Celestial Dragons' power."

"If the Revolutionary Army targets us... we'll be in big trouble, fufu..."

Doflamingo knew Oboro's nature quite well; God Slayer could not possibly fear anyone.

They're not even afraid of the Celestial Dragons, so why would they care about the Revolutionary Army?

He said that just to provoke Oboro and test her opinion.

"Given Monkey D. Dragon's magnanimity, if he truly wanted to overthrow the Celestial Dragons' rule, he wouldn't have allowed the Revolutionary Army to fall into crisis for personal reasons. You're underestimating him. In my opinion, it's even harder for him to get to where he is today than to become Yonko."

Long chuckled softly.

"Fufufu..."

Just then, the Den Den Den Mushi in Oboro's arms rang.

He took out his phone to answer it.

"Captain, everyone is here."

"Knew."

Oboro responded, put away the Den Den Mushi, and slowly stood up.

"Have you got everything sorted out on your end?"

He asked Dover.

"Certainly."

"Then we'll head out first and wait for your message."

After saying that, Long walked away.

Seeing this, the other members who were still eating quickly emptied their plates and followed.

The Hell Pirates are leaving Dressrosa to begin their next plan.

The chaotic situation in the New World has not yet stabilized, and it will not be easy to completely digest the Whitebeard Pirates' territory and resources overnight.

The project to relocate the navy to its new base will not be completed in the short term.

However, by being 'hidden' underwater during this period, one can clearly see many changes 'above the water'.

After the Hell Pirates left.

Pica asked Doflamingo in a sharp, delicate voice, "Are we really going to cooperate with the Hell Pirates to the end? Given his personality, if he turns on us one day and tries to eliminate us... we'll probably have a hard time resisting. He says he'll make us the new Yonko, but I find it hard to imagine anyone willing to hand over such a huge prize so kindly."

"Fufufu... Don't worry, I'm extremely useful to him. To maintain this relationship, I just need to keep myself useful... Unless one day he really replaces the person between Pangaea Castle and Room of Flowers... Otherwise, as long as the Celestial Dragons remain the world's nobles and hold power, he will never turn against me."

Dover, clearly confident, smiled enigmatically and said, "Of course, if he really does end up in that position, whether he's killed or punished is up to him..."

"The thought of making those guys pay with their lives fills me with uncontrollable excitement."

Dover grinned and twitched his fingers.

He looked a bit crazy.

"We'll listen to what you say, Dover."

Pica let out a shrill laugh.

They were family, and Dover was the head of the family... Even with Dover's choice, they all ultimately died.

It doesn't matter.

As long as we can be together, that's enough.

A few hours later, the Blood Pluton soared into the sky, bathed in sunlight.

Diamante and Gladius stared silently in the direction the red boat had disappeared.

"In the end, he still didn't kill him. I don't quite understand what the God Slayer is thinking..." Gladius said coldly.

The person he said he wanted to kill was Rob Lucci, a CP9 agent who was lying in ambush within the Hell Pirates.

During this period, he and Diamante took turns keeping an eye on Rob Lucci, keeping him by his side almost 24 hours a day.

From Doflamingo's perspective, having such a traitor in the works is extremely dangerous... Once the Five Elders find out about the cooperation between the Donquixote Family and the Hell Pirates, at least before they become Yonko, they could be targeted by the World Government and suffer a heavy blow.

Doflamingo's title as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea will be stripped, and he will be imprisoned.

They thought the God Slayer would order the elimination of this government lackey, but he remained silent... Even if the Hell Pirates were unwilling to do it, the Donquixote Family was willing to do it for them. The target was an elite soldier trained by the World Government for many years, and the fact that they had been so 'strictly guarded' in Dressrosa must have made them realize something was amiss.

In other words, Rob Lucci might have already guessed that his identity has been exposed.

"Stop thinking about it, let's get ready. We're setting off for there tomorrow... This time, the Hell Pirates' plan is way too big. To be honest... I don't even want to think about the consequences. It feels even more shocking than the Summit War..."

"This man... is really... amazing, and of course, undeniably powerful."

"Personally, I admire him a lot."

Diamante said seriously.

Gladius glanced at his companion but remained silent.

One wave subsides only for another to rise, and this time, it's their turn to participate in a major event worthy of being recorded in history.
