Angry Nami, Do You Take Me for a Fool?!
Is that the place?
Looking at the enormous island in the distance, Perona smiled and said, "Dressrosa ~"
"Yes, that's it."
As they spoke, Luo carefully observed the coastline of Dressrosa and, finding no suspicious ships, continued, "Let's go, let's land on the coastline."
"Doflamingo isn't waiting for us up ahead, is he?" Nami asked worriedly.
Doflamingo knew they were coming to Dressrosa, so... could they be lying in wait for them nearby?
If that were the case, they would be in danger.
"Probably not," Luo said. "After all, that guy knows the consequences of resorting to underhanded tactics."
He previously stated that the transaction would take place at 3 PM at Green Bit!
If the other party had come looking for them beforehand, he would have crushed Caesar's heart without hesitation!
He believed Doflamingo would also think of this, so there was a high chance he wouldn't resort to such underhanded tactics.
"I definitely didn't see anyone on the coastline," Usopp said, holding his binoculars.
The moment he saw the island, he picked up his binoculars and began to observe the situation, but he did not find any suspicious persons.
"Even if it's not here on the coastline, it will be elsewhere," Xi Yan said calmly. "Don't treat Doflamingo like a fool."
He didn't believe that someone like Doflamingo would be unguarded.
"Then let's disguise ourselves before we go in," Nicole Robin suggested.
The others nodded in agreement; they really did need to disguise themselves properly.
This also reduces the chances of it being detected earlier.
Then, Kin'emon used his Devil Fruit ability to help everyone change their appearance.
Subconsciously touching his beard, Xi Yan said, "You can even conjure up a beard?"
Isn't the other person Devil Fruit User?
How can he even conjure up a beard?
"My Demon Technique can indeed conjure up decorations," Kin'emon said. "Things like beards, Sunglasses, and jewelry can all be produced."
That's why he confidently accepted the task earlier.
Xi Yan smiled upon hearing this and said, "Your ability is really convenient."
In a sense, this guy's abilities are perfectly suited for infiltration.
"By the way, is this outfit alright?" Perona glanced down at her clothes and asked, "Won't anyone notice anything?"
If they don't wear traditional Dressrosa clothing, they'll stand out.
Upon hearing this, Kin'emon's eyes immediately lit up.
He then cleared his throat and said, "The clothing in Dressrosa is indeed somewhat different from ours."
"Different?"
When he noticed that everyone's attention was on him, beads of sweat appeared on Kin'emon's face, clearly indicating that he was somewhat nervous.
But for his own selfish reasons, he forced a nod and said, "That's right, it's different."
"What's different?"
"The men in Dressrosa like to wear suits and the like," Kin'emon said. "While the women need to be completely unpretentious..."
"Bump!"
Without giving Kin'emon a chance to continue arguing, Nami punched Kin'emon squarely on the head, giving him a large bump.
"Do you think we're fools?!" Nami pointed at the drawing Kin'emon had produced, her shark-like mouth agape as she roared, "How can there be such a rule?!"
This guy's got it written all over his face, you bastard!
"Actually, this is the truth..."
"Bump!"
After knocking Kin'emon's words back with a punch, Nami snorted unhappily, her eyes turning dangerous.
His expression seemed to say: If you dare say such things again, I wouldn't mind sending you on your way.
Upon witnessing this scene, Kin'emon decisively chose to remain silent.
"Ah... so it was fake." Sanji said with a disappointed look.
"What a pity," Brook said with a regretful expression.
Nami:???
What are those two bastards up to?
"Buzz~"
The next moment, several Negative Ghost appeared beside the two and knocked them down.
"I... I'm a piece of scum..."
"I'm sorry that I, a skeleton, actually thought about that kind of thing..."
"Snort."
Perona snorted as she saw the two people she had taken down.
Sometimes you really can't blame Nami; these guys really deserve a beating.
Then, Perona turned her gaze to the others, her eyes seeming to say: Do you want to see too?
Seeing this, Xi Yan rolled his eyes. Only those three old lechers would say something like that.
Luo's lips twitched, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Seeing that the others weren't like Kin'emon and his two companions, Perona showed a satisfied expression. Sure enough, there were only these three scumbags.
"Alright, now that we're all dressed up, let's hurry up and get ashore." Luffy looked expectantly at the distant island and said, "I wonder if there's anything good to eat in Dressrosa ~"
As he spoke, Luffy recalled what Doflamingo had said earlier.
That meat must taste... delicious!
"Profound!"
"Leave it to me!" Merry shouted.
After saying that, she activated her ability to create a gust of wind, propelling the pirate ship swiftly towards the distant island. Soon, they arrived at the target area and successfully docked.
"Hahaha~"
After jumping off the ship, Luffy shouted happily, "We've finally arrived in Dressrosa!"
"I've had a super awesome week!"
Franky jumped down too, shouting, "Factory? I'll blow it to smithereens!"
"Hey, stop shouting!" Usopp said nervously, "This is enemy territory!"
Unfortunately, Luffy didn't seem to care much about such things; instead, he was laughing happily.
Usopp:...
So, do you guys even take this matter seriously?
"There's no need for you to be so nervous." Zoro walked over to Usopp and said, "If they can really hear us here, it means there are their people nearby, and we couldn't have sneaked in silently."
So shouting a few times won't hurt.
"That's true, but..." Usopp said with a bit of a headache, "This is, after all, the enemy's headquarters."
If he could, he really didn't want to have a direct confrontation with that guy Doflamingo.
After all... that would be too dangerous.
"What's the point of saying this now that things have come to this?" Sanji, with a head full of bumps, said, "Just go down there quietly."
Even if they were afraid, they had to carry this plan through to the end!
Usopp understood this, so after a sigh, he resigned himself to his fate and followed them ashore.
"Anyway..." Luffy turned to look at his crew and said, "We need to infiltrate the town first, right?"
"Ah, that's right."
Luo said, "But don't be careless, understand?"
"If sabotaging the Factory fails, then all the plans will be wasted."
"Profound!"
"Knew!"
Looking at Luffy, Law fell silent.
Did he really know?
"Don't worry, we'll sabotage the Factory," Franky said.
Although they don't know where the Factory is, as long as they can find Factory location, they can destroy Factory!
Seeing that Franky had said so, Law temporarily suppressed his other thoughts.
In any case, he has no other choice now, so he can only trust the Straw Hat Crew.
Then, he turned to look at Nami and said, "Nami, if anything happens to us, you should go to Zou first."
"Something went wrong?"
Nami's expression immediately changed. Could something extremely dangerous be about to happen again?
This is not good news.
Usopp's expression also turned somewhat grim, and he asked, "What kind of accident are you talking about?"
Who knows?
Usopp:???
What kind of talk is that?
"Our opponent is Doflamingo, after all; he can't just sit idly by," Law said. "So we need to be on our toes."
Nami pursed her lips upon hearing this, and suddenly became a little nervous.
If possible... she hoped nothing unexpected would happen.
Usopp, on the other hand, wore a pained expression; if he could, he hoped nothing unexpected would happen.
Luo didn't care about their reactions; he had said what he needed to say, and whether or not they did it was up to them.
Then, he bent down, took out a map, and spread it out on the ground.
"What is this?" Luffy asked curiously.
"This is a map drawn by my companion."
"Map?"
Upon hearing the word "map," Nami leaned closer to take a look, then gave a disgusted expression and said, "It's so badly drawn..."
It only drew the general outline of the island, without any details... Well, it's not that it has no details at all.
Nami stared at the drawing again, thinking to herself, "At least they've drawn the outline of the coastline."
However, in her opinion, this kind of map was completely unacceptable!
"It's already quite good to be able to draw it like this," Luo explained somewhat helplessly. "Don't forget, this is the enemy's headquarters."
This was drawn by his companion at the risk of being discovered.
Seeing that Law had said so, Nami temporarily suppressed her dislike.
'That's true, this is the enemy's headquarters after all,' Nami thought to herself.
So don't be picky, just make do with what you have.
This is where we are now.
Luo pointed to a spot and said, "Located on the West Blue of Dressrosa."
"Doflamingo's palace is located in the very center of Dressrosa, right here."
After speaking, Luo paused for a moment, then continued, "And this time, the target—SMILE's manufacturing Factory— is located somewhere on this island."
"Time is limited, so your sabotage team must act quickly."
Xi Yan, who was squatting in front of Luo and staring at the map, subconsciously touched his chin.
He felt that Luo's map was completely useless.
However, since this was drawn by the other party's comrade at great personal risk, he couldn't say anything.
"And what about us?" Usopp asked.
"The squad responsible for escorting Caesar will need to cross Dressrosa and walk across the Long Bridge that extends to the north."
Luo pointed to a drawing above that resembled a bridge and said, "From here, you can reach the Green Bit."
And this is their mission objective for this escort team!
"Why do we have to go through Dressrosa?" Usopp asked, puzzled. "Can't we just take a boat?"
Crossing into someone else's base camp is an extremely dangerous thing.
"I would like to take a boat directly there, but you can't get in by boat," Luo explained. "So the only way is through Dressrosa."
This was also something his companion told him.
Usopp fell silent upon hearing this. They couldn't get in by boat?
Does that mean they have to traverse the extremely dangerous Dressrosa to reach their target area?
Thinking about this, Usopp became nervous. What if Doflamingo ambushed them on the way?!
Nico Robin smiled and said, "Ara~"
"Well, I'm actually starting to look forward to it!"
Infiltration operation?
Come to think of it, it's been a long time since she's done anything like this.
Thinking of this, Nico Robin smiled even more broadly.
"That..."
Caesar, who was standing nearby, coughed lightly and said, "Please make sure you all take care of my safety."
He didn't want to be killed by these guys before Doflamingo could take him back.
Don't worry.
Luo glanced at Caesar and said, "You're an important asset for us; we won't let you get taken out prematurely."
Caesar:???
Upon hearing this, several question marks immediately appeared on Caesar's mind.
"What do you mean you won't get killed beforehand?!"
Was he supposed to be killed before?
Thinking about this, Caesar got a little angry.
"Who knows?" Luo said calmly.
Clearly, he had no intention of explaining to Caesar.
Caesar:...
Explain yourself, you bastard!
Seeing that Caesar was still planning to cause trouble, Nami punched Caesar in the face, knocking him down.
"Shut up!"
"I didn't say anything!"
Caesar lay prostrate on the ground, tears welling in his eyes. What kind of mess was this?
'Joker, please save me...' Caesar cried out in his heart, 'I can't stand these bastards anymore!'
"Hey, Nami, don't kill him!" Usopp said nervously.
If this guy gets killed beforehand, they won't have any leverage to negotiate with Doflamingo.
At that time... what awaits them is Doflamingo's relentless pursuit!
"Don't worry, I'll know my limits," Nami said.
I just gave this guy a simple punch; it won't kill him.
Seeing that Nami had already said that, Usopp couldn't say anything more.
"Damn it, you just wait!" Caesar muttered under his breath, "Wait for me..."
"Um?"
Upon hearing Caesar's voice, Nami immediately flashed a 'kind' smile and asked, "What did you say?"
"N-nothing..."
"Bump!"
"Ouch... it hurts so much!!!"
