If You Dare Attack Again, Don't Even Think About Going Back

At Marineford today, the reception at the coast is very solemn. It is Vice Admiral John Giant; the reason is that a candidate for the Shichibukai will be landing at Marineford today.

In the Sengoku office, Ye Chen sat on the sofa, drinking coffee.

"Wouldn't it be inappropriate to have John handle the reception?"

Not far away, the crane pondered for a moment, frowning.

"This guy initially just wanted a lieutenant to receive him!"

Sengoku, who was dealing with government affairs, put down his quill, raised his head, revealed a slight bitter smile, and pointed at Ye Chen, who had no expression.

"Lieutenant?" Tsuru was taken aback, then looked at Ye Chen. "It seems you don't have a good impression of those people!"

Is it important?

After putting down his coffee, Ye Chen stood up and continued, "It's almost time. I'm going to the reception room."

"You go first! Let these pirates know where this place is. I'll come over after I've dealt with these matters."

Sengoku continued handling government affairs and nodded.

Turning around, Ye Chen left the office.

Meanwhile, at the coastline, pirate ships, one after another, were moored at different points.

"Marineford as magnificent as ever."

With blond hair, sunglasses, a pink feather coat, pointed shoes, and a swaggering gait with his legs spread wide, he was incredibly arrogant.

"Yaksha Donquixote Doflamingo"

At the port, John looked solemnly at the arrogant and unruly man, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

"It turns out that a lieutenant general Vice Admiral receiving us! It seems we have some very important people behind us!"

Doflamingo narrowed his eyes as he looked at the badge on John's shoulder.

"Tyrant Bartholomew Bear".

Closely following behind, a tall, burly man, like a bear, walked over, holding Bible in his hand.

"Let's not waste each other's time, where's the meeting room!"

With a strong sense of oppression, Xiong shifted his gaze to John.

"Rear Admiral Sicily, please take these two candidates for the Shichibukai to the reception room."

John couldn't leave because several people hadn't arrived yet, and as for leading the way, a Rear Admiral would suffice.

"Fufu is so arrogant!"

Seeing the tense Rear Admiral, Doflamingo's fingers twitched restlessly, but in the end, he didn't move.

And so, Doflamingo and Kuma, who arrived first, went to the headquarters conference room under the guidance of Rear Admiral Sicily, where someone was waiting for them.

When the conference room door opened, Doflamingo and Kuma looked at Ye Chen, who was sitting on the sofa, drinking coffee and reading the news, and their expressions changed.

"Oh my, I never expected that it would be Admiral God waiting for us. How kind of you!"

Unruly and fearless, Doflamingo treated the place like his own home, sitting on the sofa opposite Ye Chen.

"A cup of coffee, please, no sugar."

Doflamingo snapped his fingers and looked at a Rear Admiral in the room.

"No coffee, but there's cold water nearby, help yourself!"

Ye Chen looked away from the newspaper and stared calmly at Doflamingo, showing him no respect whatsoever.

"Fufufufu," Doflamingo's smiling face gradually disappeared, and the gaze hidden behind his sunglasses suddenly turned cold, with a vein bulging on his forehead.

Without any warning, Doflamingo, with one hand supporting himself on the table and his right foot completely black, attacked Ye Chen.

A gust of wind swept through, and a surge of air pressure rose. Ye Chen raised his hand, slightly turning his face to block Doflamingo's kick. His originally indifferent expression instantly turned icy cold.

Without hesitation, he kicked out with tremendous force, creating a sonic boom. Doflamingo's expression changed, and he raised his jet-black right hand to block the attack.

He was thrown backward, a chaotic hurricane spreading out as Doflamingo slammed heavily against the wall, instantly creating cracks that spread out, extremely glaring.

"You wasted one chance. Next time, you're dead!"

Still seated on the sofa, Ye Chen glanced at Doflamingo with cold eyes, then picked up the newspaper and began reading it again.

The Rear Admiral beside him looked at Ye Chen with a gleaming gaze, one of pure admiration.

Before me stands the Yaksha Donquixote Doflamingo! The God Admiral, he's so incredibly cool.

"Fufufufu is really domineering!" With a gloomy face, Doflamingo gradually regained his composure, then sat down on the rearranged sofa as if nothing had happened.

As for Bartholomew Kuma, while the two were fighting, he went and got himself a glass of cold water and drank it.

"Hey! Hey! This is the Navy, we're pirates!"

Looking at the silent bear, Doflamingo frowned, his unspoken message being: We are all pirates, this is Marineford, we should unite, not stand by and watch like you.

"I have no interest in fighting!"

He was indifferent; the bear was flipping through the Bible and didn't even glance at Doflamingo.

Upon hearing Kuma's words, Doflamingo grinned maliciously. "Not interested in fighting? How did you get your 'Tyrant' title?"

"Sand Crocodile Crocodile arrived!"

Suddenly, in this eerily quiet atmosphere, the meeting door was opened.

The leader was a man with slicked-back hair, a horizontal scar on his face, an earring in his right ear, Golden Hook in his left hand, and wearing a black fur coat, smoking a cigar.

"Looks like I'm not the first one!"

Looking at the three people in the room, Crocodile pinched his cigar and exhaled a puff of smoke.

However, apart from Doflamingo, Kuma and Ye Chen didn't even raise their heads, completely ignoring him.

Crocodile's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but he wasn't as arrogant as Doflamingo, who would resort to violence at the slightest provocation.

Crocodile walked to the sofa, sat down, and beckoned, "A cup of coffee, please."

He was arrogant and confident, just like Doflamingo before him, showing no fear whatsoever despite being in Marineford and even with an Admiral sitting next to him.

This time, the Rear Admiral didn't move, but simply said, "There's no coffee, but there's a water dispenser over there. Please help yourself."

The major general glanced at Ye Chen, who was reading a newspaper, Rear Admiral, head held high, refused outright.

"Fufufufu"

Doflamingo looked at Crocodile with amusement, his laughter a tinge of encouragement.

As expected, those who are considered for the position of Shichibukai are all proud and arrogant individuals, not to mention Crocodile, who is Logia Fruit user.

A sand blade whistled past, slashing directly and forcefully towards the Rear Admiral.

However, a large hand intervened, crushing the sand blade in two, and a chilling voice echoed in Crocodile's ears.

"If you dare to lay a hand on me again, don't even think about going back!"

The sharp gaze darkened Crocodile's face, and sand began to rise from his body.

Ye Chen stared coldly at Crocodile, ready to unleash a devastating attack if he dared to make a move.

"Fufufufu"

Doflamingo's laughter nearby brought Crocodile back to his senses, and he fell silent.

The man before him was Admiral, not someone to be trifled with. And this was still Marineford. If the other party really wanted to capture him, the success rate was over 70%. Crocodile was hesitant to take the gamble.
