"Yes, Lord Five Elders, I guarantee to complete the mission!"

The Den Den Mushi hung up, Spandam, hiding Tom's Studio, glared fiercely at the distant workshop. His previously comical face was now hidden behind the leather bandage securing his wound.
"Those lowly old fish-men, those freaks who only know how to use violence, actually dared to use force to expel and rebel against the World Government! Damn bastards!!!"
Spandam vented his frustration with curses as he glared fiercely at the studio, but then his gaze inadvertently fell upon something else.
"Those things, I remember they were ships built by that freak. Hehehe, I suddenly have a brilliant idea..."
Spandam gestured, and several CP5 officials leaned in to listen, their sinister smiles revealing their true thoughts.
"Bring all those warships here, back to Enies Lobby, and then do this and that..."
A few days later, Tom's Studio, the builder of the Sea Train that had created the ship that allowed the Pirate King Gold Roger to travel around the world, was embroiled in scandal.
The warships produced by his fleet recently attacked Enies Lobby, and together with Tom's Studio, they are considered to have provided weapons to the World Government rebels and will soon be sent to the World Court for trial.
Compared to this "insignificant" little incident that was only widely circulated in the "Paradise" of the first half of the Grand Line, the news sent to the world through the World Economic Journal shocked countless people.
"What?! The Four Emperors Uchiha Huayue attacked Dressrosa, kidnapped Princess Violet, the daughter of the current King Riku Violet, and stole over 10 billion Beli!"
"Hey, hey, hey, is the sea about to surge again? The Seven Warlords of the Sea, Doflamingo the Heavenly Yaksha King, has been removed from the list. It's said that he was removed because he attacked a member state of the World Government."
"Tch, pirates are pirates. Why does the World Government need to establish such a redundant organization as the Seven Warlords of the Sea..."
"Hey, hahaha! This is an opportunity! The Four Emperors, who haven't shown up for a long time, have appeared, and there are vacancies in the Seven Warlords of the Sea. The next Seven Warlords of the Sea will definitely be in my White Flag's pocket!"
Faced with this shocking news, countless pirates were eager to try their luck. More than ten years have passed since the start of the Great Pirate Era.
Heroes rise on the high seas, the New World is divided among the Four Emperors, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea possess the legal right to plunder. The true allure of the Great Treasure...
All of this has attracted waves of pirates who have relentlessly challenged the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Four Emperors in their quest to find all of it.
The escalating conflict has also led to the emergence of many outstanding naval officers and soldiers, and the Marine Admiral have undergone an unprecedented reshuffle.
Akainu Sakazuki, Aokiji Kuzan, Kizaru Borsalino, and others officially became Marine Admiral, suppressing wave after wave of pirates who posed a threat to the world.
"What do you mean by 'despicable pirates' shameful plundering'? You must have studied journalism. Shouldn't it be changed to 'a great princess sacrificing herself for righteousness, choosing to voluntarily sacrifice herself to quell the war'?"
On the comfortable Zeus Sofa, Huayue glanced at the headline on the front page of the newspaper in her hand and smiled wryly. She then looked at Violet, the second princess of Dressrosa, who was standing next to her, wanting to hear her opinion.
"How could this be? Why haven't the negative news about Donquixote Doflamingo been published worldwide? Do the reporters at this newspaper have absolutely no morals?"
Violet carefully observed the clues and indignantly questioned them, which only provoked Huayue's ridicule.
"Morals? Hahaha, these guys are like sharks that smell blood, they only rush towards the hottest topics, who cares about the truth behind these news stories?"
"However, there is one thing they are right about: Doflamingo's title has been stripped. It seems that the World Government has finally given up on this Celestial Dragons was expelled from Mariejois."
Call!
The sound of something cutting through the air came, but Huayue did not turn around. A wooden sword spun and flew from the sky, but in the end it just landed helplessly on the deck.
"Not enough, keep going. Such feeble attacks won't touch me. This kind of attack is definitely not enough to get you and your aunt off this ship, little Rebecca..."
At the cabin door, a girl with short pink hair glared angrily at the cute little girl, Huayue, and, unwilling to give up, picked up her wooden sword again to attack her.
But no matter how hard she tried, she could never get close to him, and she sat on the deck and cried loudly.
"Dad, Mom, where are you? I don't want to be on the same boat as this nasty guy..."
Violet carefully observed Huayue's expression. Seeing that his eyes were full of teasing and that he showed no signs of annoyance or impatience, she breathed a sigh of relief and hurried to Rebecca's side.
"Don't cry, Rebecca, your aunt is here."
"Waaaaah... Auntie, I miss Daddy, I miss Mommy!"
Not far away, Baby5 saw Rebecca making a fuss and was momentarily dazed. She couldn't help but ask Huayue a question.
Why is little Rebecca so sad after being separated from her parents?
"Who knows? I don't really understand these kinds of feelings. What about you, Baby5?"
You're really brave to discuss this with someone like him who couldn't even find a pair of parents by the time he was ten!
"I don't know. The child was considered an unwanted extra by the parents, born as a superfluous item, and was simply abandoned in the forest..."
For a moment, those who overheard this felt Hiyori pitiful and speechless. Was it really that difficult to find normal parents in this world?!
"Auntie, why are we here? Why can't we go back to Dressrosa? I want to go home. I miss my dad and mom..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I'm so sorry, this is... the punishment from the Four Emperors..."
Violet, tears welling in her eyes, embraced the weeping Rebecca, recalling Dressrosa from a few days earlier.
At the summit of the King's Plateau, within the Dressrosa Royal Palace ravaged by thunder and lightning, countless citizens and Riku Royal Family felt an unprecedented oppression.
Before the beings before them have even made a move, these incredibly powerful pirates are putting the entire kingdom in grave danger, and the origin of all this conflict stems from a misunderstanding that could have been avoided.
"Wait, we are willing to make the greatest possible compensation. Please don't let the flames of war fall upon the people of Delesiro again, we beg you!"
In the critical moment, King Riku stepped forward, his gaze falling on Baby5, whose arm was injured.
"First, how about healing the child's injuries?"
"Alright, then I'll use this time to think about how to deal with this place. Lead the way."
At King Riku's insistence, only Kyros accompanied him and Violet on their journey to Green Bit, an island belonging to Dressrosa.
It also allowed Huayue and others to see the incredibly precious branch of humanity.
