Doflamingo didn't take Buffalo's words seriously. As long as they weren't taken away by outsiders, he didn't care.
After all, in his eyes, Abel and Luo were already considered part of the Family.
So he got down to business, "The next target is Rakeish. The people in that town are fawning over us while secretly colluding with other organizations. We must make these traitors pay!"
Doflamingo hated betrayal more than anything in his life, so the killing intent in his eyes was almost completely undisguised.
Just then, someone suddenly pushed the door open, startling everyone who was dining.
"We're eating, get him out of here."
Jola glanced at the filthy Luo with disgust and was about to have him thrown out when Doflamingo stopped her.
"Leave him be."
"Huh?"
"As long as he doesn't want to leave himself, let him do as he pleases."
At this, everyone understood Doflamingo's attitude.
Trebol immediately laughed, "Behehehe~ Corazon really beat you up badly after you came here."
Diamante also seemed to not want Luo to stay and continued to apply pressure, "Whether adult or child, those who can't hang on eventually leave in disgrace. So the people who can stay now are the elites, one in a hundred. How long can a brat like you, who hasn't even seen a Devil Fruit, last? Three days or five?"
However, Luo didn't listen to a word they said.
"I absolutely won't leave!"
"This kind of thing doesn't scare me. I've seen hell with my own eyes and crawled out of it."
Seemingly sensing something, Doflamingo suddenly warned Luo, "Whether you leave or stay is your freedom, of course. But Corazon is my most important younger brother. If anyone dares to harm him even a little, I will surely take their life."
Luo gritted his teeth. If he could, he really wanted to kill Corazon right then and there!
Even after hearing Doflamingo's warning, he didn't take it too seriously. He just thought that as long as no one found out, he could be lucky. Anyway, he didn't have long to live. If he didn't deal with Corazon, nothing would be possible.
At this moment, he suddenly missed Abel.
If Abel wasn't injured, he would surely have come up with a way to deal with that bastard!
But at the same time, he didn't want to drag Abel into it.
It was much better for one person to be unlucky than for two people to be unlucky together.
Just as he was spacing out, Mahalbes, a tall, muscular man wearing a red hat, suddenly noticed the white spots on Luo's body. "Hmm? Why is this kid's skin so disgusting?"
Upon seeing this, Jola immediately turned pale with fright and started shouting, "It's Lead Sickness! It'll be a big problem if I get infected!"
"Huh? A contagious disease? That's disgusting! You and that guy, get out of here quickly!"
Buffalo was so scared that he pressed himself against the wall, sweating profusely. At the same time, he was acting out of self-interest, wanting to use this opportunity to drive Abel out as well.
Bang!
Doflamingo slammed the table heavily, his face full of anger.
"Jola! Don't blurt out things you heard from hearsay. I'm ashamed for you."
"So-called Lead Sickness is just poisoning. It won't infect anyone."
The real reason he was angry was not because Abel and Luo were discriminated against, but because he couldn't tolerate having such a stupid 'Family Member' who would believe the World Government's lies used to fool ordinary citizens!
Seeing that Doflamingo was truly furious, everyone immediately calmed down. Jola looked embarrassed.
Only the not-so-bright Buffalo still looked uncertain and warned Luo, "Just in case, you're not allowed to come near me from now on."
Luo sneered inwardly, Who would want to approach a fat idiot like you?
He simply took a plate of meat from the table and sat on the floor in the corner, frantically stuffing his mouth.
And this time, no one stopped him, and no one gossiped.
Although many people present didn't understand why Doflamingo would take in Luo and another kid in a similar situation, since it was already a done deal, it was best not to easily challenge the patience of Young Master Dof.
Thus, this dangerous crisis was invisibly resolved.
But clearly, the real trouble had not been solved.
Soon, Corazon finished eating and left directly.
Luo, who was engrossed in eating, didn't notice the approaching danger at all. By the time he reacted, he was already flying through the air, smashing through the window, and was thrown outside once again.
"Corazon! I'm going to kill you, just you wait!"
Luo, somewhat broken, stood outside and roared furiously, his face contorted.
But Corazon completely ignored him.
As for the others dining in the room, they all pretended not to hear anything.
After all, this was the first time anyone had openly threatened to kill Doflamingo's own brother.
If it was just talk, it would be fine. But if he actually managed to hurt Corazon.
Did anyone really think Doflamingo's warning earlier was just a joke?
Meanwhile, in the infirmary.
After enjoying the little loli's feeding service, that scumbag found an excuse to send her away.
He was utterly ruthless, a real "out of sight, out of mind" type. Ugh!
Alright, it wasn't that dramatic.
The main reason was that he had already gotten most of the information he wanted from Baby-5. If he kept prying, Doflamingo would likely start suspecting his motives.
Another reason was that what he planned to do next would be inconvenient with others present.
Just moments ago, Abel had initiated a search.
[Initiating search for Wish Order. Search complete!]
[Acquired one beginner Wish Order]
[Order Description: Gourmet Hunter Toriko wishes to taste some delicious dishes he has never eaten before.]
[Order Content: Delicious dishes cooked with unknown ingredients]
[Base Order Reward: Century Soup, 300 Trading Points]
[Order Remaining Time: 11 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]
.
The main reason Abel suddenly started searching for Wish Orders was that the 72-hour mark was fast approaching. If he didn't use his free search attempt today, it would be a complete waste.
Besides, he wasn't entirely unprepared.
Baby-5 was his final safety net!
He believed that as long as it wasn't something too rare, he could ask Baby-5 to procure it for him quickly.
However, when he clearly saw the content of this particular order, he felt a bit surprised.
In the end, he pondered for a long time before deciding
