Sachis's Efforts

This is a bustling town. The harbor is filled with all sorts of ships. Walking along the docks, you're surrounded by busy sailors and merchants.

"It's ironic, isn't it? Relying on the power of pirates, yet it's more prosperous than most towns."

As Nia walked into the town, she couldn't help but sigh.

In the past few years, she had traveled to countless similar port towns, but few could compare to Spiders Mill.

Even in the major nations, only their most important port cities could surpass this place.

"Our ship isn't a pirate ship, so we can dock right here. No one dares to cause trouble on the Donquixote Family's turf."

Nerl directed Pekoms and Shakky to dock the ship. After paying a sum of money to the dock management, he followed Rod and the others, a strange smile on his face.

They were here to cause trouble for the Donquixote Family, yet they were being helped by them to secure their ship. How interesting.

As for the management fee they just paid, they would get it back from the Donquixote Family.

"Actually, even pirate ships, as long as they don't conspicuously fly their flag, no one will bother them."

"The Donquixote Family is truly everywhere in this town."

The Donquixote Family's emblem was brazenly printed on the wall of the dock management office. Moreover, after entering the town, Rod and the others discovered that almost every short distance, they could see a shop bearing the Donquixote Family's emblem, covering almost every aspect of the town.

"What's the plan now?"

Everyone looked at Rod, awaiting their captain's orders.

"What's the plan? We attack directly, of course!"

Rod's gaze fell upon a building in the center of the town – a sprawling manor.

With commerce developing so rapidly, to have such a large manor in the center of Spiders Mill, it could only be the Donquixote Family's.

Furthermore, on top of the main building of the manor, a Donquixote Family flag fluttered in the wind.

"Let's give them a greeting first, Nerl."

"Understood!"

Under the terrified gazes of the surrounding crowd, Nerl raised the black gun in his hand and aimed at the fluttering Donquixote Family flag.

Bang!

With a gunshot, the bullet left the barrel. In the next moment, the flagpole in the middle of the manor snapped in half, and the Donquixote Family flag crashed down.

A quarter of an hour ago

Central Manor, Side Building Main Hall

A thin, tall man about two meters tall was hunched over a table, making slurping sounds.

"Lord Edouard Nadu, someone claiming to be Doflamingo's most loyal admirer is here to see you. He says he has important information to report."

A subordinate cautiously entered, head bowed, eyes fixed on the ground.

"There are plenty of people who want to work for that person. If I met every Tom, Dick, and Harry, how could I properly do things for my lord?"

"Ah, no, I am the dog."

Nadu looked up, revealing a long dog-like face. As he spoke, he licked the ice cream on his face with his long tongue.

"Alright, I'll have him leave quickly then."

The subordinate didn't dare to say more, nodded in agreement, and prepared to leave.

"Did you just call me a dog!"

A tall figure suddenly loomed over the subordinate who had just entered, and a chill suddenly rose.

"I didn't, I didn't!"

The subordinate shook his head frantically, still not daring to look up.

"Lick my basin clean!"

Throwing the basin in his hand in front of the subordinate, Nadu glanced at him coldly before looking at another subordinate.

"Go and bring that fellow in. If he doesn't have important information, I'll make him lick plates for a month."

"Yes!"

After a loud affirmation, the named subordinate quickly left the room, the face turned away filled with the relief of having narrowly escaped.

Lord Nadu, with his dog-like face, always referred to himself as a dog, yet he never let anyone who called him a dog off the hook. Anyone who dared to mention dogs in front of him would be punished by having to lick his dog basin clean.

"Lord Nadu, I am Sachis! What I'm here to report to you is about a group of arrogant individuals who want to steal the Donquixote Family's business."

Finally, Sachis had the chance to meet someone from the Donquixote Family, and he was filled with excitement.

More than half a month ago, their group was instantly defeated by Rod and fled like stray dogs, unable to even bring back their leader, Bellamy.

After returning to their stronghold, Sachis couldn't calm down. So, ignoring the dissuasion of others, he rushed all the way to Spiders Mill, hoping to borrow the power of the Donquixote Family to rescue Bellamy.

After his efforts during this time, he had finally established connections with the lower-ranking members of the Donquixote Family. After paying a price of 500,000 Belly, they finally agreed to introduce him to Lord Nadu.

His gaze swept over his friend lying on the ground not far away, and a trace of doubt flashed in Sachis's eyes.

He had found this friend just before, asking him to report to Lord Manudo on his behalf. But why was he licking a basin?

With no time to ponder this, Sachis quickly reported the situation to Manudo.

From when they heard the news that the Felke Family intended to get involved in the Arms Business, to when they resolutely went to stop the Felke Family, and then to being defeated by Rod and the others, with Bellamy captured.

After finishing his account, he even took out a few portraits. Fortunately, one of his companions was skilled at drawing and had sketched portraits of Rod and the others upon their return.

"So, you want me to step in and rescue your captain, that fellow named Bellamy, is that it?"

After listening to Sachis's description and looking at the portraits in his hand, Manudo spoke, summarizing.

"My main intention is to report to you that there are madmen in the North Blue who dare to try and seize the Donquixote Family's interests. However, our strength is too weak, so we need a powerful individual like yourself to act and protect the Donquixote Family's interests!

Of course, it would be even better if we could rescue our captain in the process. We will definitely defend the Donquixote Family's interests to the death!"

"Hiding under the family's banner, accepting the family's protection, yet using the family's power to satisfy your own interests. I've seen many guys like you. Do you want to guess what happened to them in the end?"

At some point, Manudo had appeared before Sachis, looking down at him from above. His tall stature exuded immense pressure.

"You don't think I can't even tell the difference with trash like you, do you? What do you think makes me the Donquixote Family's representative in the North Blue?"
