Chapter 295 One sentence stirs up the storm! (2-in-1)

As the highest power of the world government, the Five Old Stars are undoubtedly arrogant. In their eyes, everyone can become a chess piece in his palm. When they need it, these chess pieces in their control can be used according to their wishes. Place it anywhere on the world chessboard.

West Sea.

By the pool of the manor, Doflamingo was lying comfortably on the lounge chair and basking in the sun, holding the receiver in his hand and a slightly sarcastic smile on his lips, quietly listening to the words of the agent on the other end of the phone.

"Doflamingo, as long as you can fulfill the requirements of the Five Old Stars, you can become a Celestial Dragon again and return to the Holy Land of Marinjoia."

"For you, it is also a huge benefit to be in charge of the kingdom of the Don Quixote family again, isn't it?"

"Completing the leap from pirate to world noble is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you."

"Back then, you killed your own father and cut off his head with your own hands, but you couldn't get it back. Now you only need to use your hands to get it!"

"I really envy you, Doflamingo."

On the other end of the phone was Spangdyne, an important agent of the World Government.

Regarding the matter of contacting the pirates, it is obviously impossible for the Five Old Stars to personally come forward. Of course, with Doflamingo's current "worth", it is not worthy for the World Government to send CP0 to communicate with O'Hara who once came forward to "solve" it. Spangdine's intervention has already given Doflamingo enough face.

“Furfurfural”

"What an arrogant attitude! World Government."

"Do you think you're sure of me? Mr. Spangdine."

Spangdine's words were so harsh to Doflamingo's ears. The suffering he encountered as a child was the past he least wanted to recall as an adult.

The better Doflamingo's life is now, and the more successful he is in the eyes of outsiders, the less willing he is to mention his past. He is still different from those people who like to publicize their "history of struggle" everywhere after becoming famous. Doflamingo is another extreme character.

At this time, Doflamingo's tone of voice was slightly calm, but the veins on his forehead were exposed, giving him a sinister and ferocious scowl.

Bringing Dressrosa back under the control of the World Government and promising to restore his identity as a Celestial Dragon seemed like an "equivalent exchange", but to Doflamingo, these demands made him think of him as a fool. ,Fool.

Dressrosa.

In the Western Sea on the same side of the Red Continent, even the most ignorant people have heard of this name.

The place where Pirate King Roger was captured was in Dressrosa. That place was the territory of one of the most special generals in the navy, Enichi Tsukuni.

Since the establishment of the Sword of Dawn Navy Branch, there have been countless pirates who have attempted to eradicate Dressrosa, but the Navy Branch of Dressrosa still stands today.

Anyone with a normal mind knows what this means.

No pirate would want to tease Tsukuni Enichi's tiger whiskers, not even Doflamingo. Doflamingo is not so stupid as to provoke a powerful and ruthless admiral for no reason.

not to mention.

"Becoming a Celestial Dragon?"

"Fufufufu, it sounds like a very interesting thing."

"This matter is very difficult for me. I need time to manage it properly."

"The day I succeed, I will walk to Marinjoia myself."

Doflamingo chuckled and agreed.

Then he hung up the phone without waiting for a reply from the other end of the phone.

"This world is too vast. The Celestial Dragons, who are kept like pigs on the Red Earth Continent, are there anything worthy of my yearning for?"

"Wulao Xing's bargaining chips are not enough!"

“Furfurfural”

After hanging up the phone, Doflamingo murmured and picked up the red wine on the table next to him, shaking the glass with a drunken look.

Yes, he agreed to Wu Laoxing's request on the phone, but Doflamingo had no intention of following Wu Laoxing's words. When he was a child, he really wanted to become a Celestial Dragon again, but as he got older and saw more and more things, his yearning for the Celestial Dragons became weaker and weaker.

Doflamingo came to the conclusion through these years of experience, that is, in this world, power is equated with strength.

What he wants is power!

Doflamingo was just inconvenient and rejected the request made by the World Government, but he was asked to provoke Enichi Jiguo? This is absolutely impossible, at least not now.

On the other side, Spangdine, who received a positive reply, did not doubt that he was there, and happily reported it to his superiors. After Wu Laoxing learned the news, he did not feel much surprise.

As mentioned at the beginning, they have become accustomed to treating everyone as movable pawns.

February 1507 in the Haiyuan calendar.

As a roar sounded on the shore of Gaya Island, a merchant ship that had disappeared for a long time returned to the sea.

"Your ability is really convenient! Bear!"

The merchant ship landed steadily on the beach, and there was a deep bear-paw-shaped pit on the beach under the ship. Ji Guoyuan raised his head from the deck of the merchant ship, looked down at the beach, and smiled.

This merchant ship was none other than Ji Guoyuan and his party who had just left Kongdao.

After getting the Thunder Fruit, Yuanyi did not return to Qinghai immediately. Instead, he took the crew on a sightseeing trip to the Sky Island, and he himself secretly inquired about the whereabouts of the historical text.

This process is relatively long. The relevant plots in Ji Guoyuan's original work are not much different from those in the past. Looking for the lost golden clock and the historical text embedded on the golden clock's base really consumes him. less time.

Yuanyi was able to find the historical text thanks to the Sandians on Sky Island. Yuanyi heard the legend of the Golden Bell from their mouths, and also saw the huge vine towering into the sky. With this, Yuanyi Only then did I guess where the Golden Bell was.

One night, Jiguoyuan followed the huge vines to the top, and successfully found the lost golden clock and the historical text embedded on the base.

After Ji Guoyuan found the historical text, he secretly copied it without telling anyone. After visiting the empty island with others for a few days, he used the bear's ability to take an "unconventional" route back to Qinghai. Gaya Island.

This trip to the empty island was a successful conclusion.

Looking at the familiar blue sea, the people on the boat all showed bright smiles.

After praising the bear, Jiguoyuanyi gently held on to the railing and jumped off the deck. His feet stepped on the familiar beach. Jiguoyuanyi could not help but face the warm sunshine and stretched out his arms. Lazy back.

"Where shall we go next?"

Mihawk walked to the side of the ship, put his hands on the railing, and asked Jiguoyuan on the beach.

"Next, just"

Just as Ji Guoyuan was about to say something, a news bird slowly flew over the sky. Ji Guoyuan raised his head, raised his eyebrows, took out a coin from his arms and flicked it into the air.

The next second, Newsbird picked up a newspaper from the bag and dropped it.

As the sea breeze blew, Mihawk took the fallen newspaper in his hand. Ji Guoyuan raised his head and asked Mihawk:

"Mihawk, look at the newspaper. Has anything big happened during this time?"

"Let's see if any big pirates emerge during this time!"

When Ji Guoyuan spoke, Mihawk had already quickly browsed the information in the newspaper. This newspaper was from a few days ago. Gaya Island was at the initial location of the first half of the Grand Line, quite a distance from the Shampoo Islands, the "center" of intelligence.

Therefore, there is often no way to receive the hottest news first-hand.

The front page headline of the newspaper was a photo of the World Government flag burning. The headline was "Shocked, the navy stationed on Ridchiled Island attacked the World Government ship!" 》

Mihawk's expression moved slightly when he saw the news, and his face became serious. Other people on the boat also noticed Mihawk's sudden expression, and they all gathered around Mihawk.

After quickly browsing the information in the newspaper, Tianzheng's face changed drastically and he couldn't help but whisper:

"General. Something big happened!"

Hearing Tianzheng's words, Ji Guoyuan couldn't help but frowned: "What's the big deal?"

"Does it have anything to do with us?"

Mihawk didn't say anything more. He folded the newspaper in his hand and threw it to Jiguoyuanyi. After receiving it, the latter quickly unfolded it. After a few quick glances, Jiguoyuanyi also had a slightly condensed look on his face and quickly removed it from his arms. Zhong took out his phone and dialed.

"Gasha~"

After a few busy signals, the phone was quickly picked up. When Ji Guoyuan saw that the call was still connected, he felt relieved, and Tiger's voice also came from the other end of the phone:

"I'm Tiger."

"General, you finally have news!"

In the office on Ridchiled Island, Tiger looked at the red-haired phone bug with stripes on his forehead and said excitedly.

"Tiger, I feel relieved when I hear your energetic voice."

"I saw the newspaper, saying that our navy attacked the World Government's ship. What is going on?"

Under Jiguoyuanyi's inquiry, Tiger reported to Jiguoyuanyi in detail. After he reported the cause and effect of the incident, he also told Jiguoyuanyi his judgment.

Tiger felt that their navy might have fallen into a trap set by the world government.

However, some of the corpses of the patrol ship Navy were recovered, including Danny, who was killed by Jinke himself.

The death situation was completely different from that of other crew members. Tiger, who had a keen sense of smell, also found that there was no smell of gunpowder smoke on the other party's body, and he immediately made a judgment in his mind.

The cause of Danny's death was strange, and the time of death was probably before the patrol ship was bombarded.

Tiger is full of doubts about the World Government's ships, but he can't find any concrete evidence, which makes Tiger a little distressed.

"General, it's all my fault that something like this happened."

"For this reason, no matter what punishment I can accept, even if it means using my life to quell the anger of the World Government, I have no reason."

"I have only one request. I ask the general to find out the truth of the matter. I don't want my comrades to die inexplicably."

"Also, I hope that the general will not involve other fishmen on Fishman Island because of my relationship."

After reporting the situation to Ji Guoyuan, Tiger showed a resigned attitude.

When Ji Guoyuan heard this, he looked at the newspaper in his hand again, then a smile appeared on his face and he said:

"Since you don't want your comrades to die inexplicably, then do your best to investigate."

"Speaking of Tiger."

"I just heard you say that you suspected the World Government because children and women disappeared from time to time on the island, and you saw merchant ships coming into contact with World Government ships, right?"

"Pay attention to whether there are any children or women missing on the island after this incident."

On the other end of the phone, Tiger, who heard Jiguo Yuanyi's words, immediately stood there as if struck by lightning. During this time, he was focused on salvaging sunken ships and searching for the "missing navy".

As soon as Ji Guoyuan said it, he really didn't notice it. After such a reminder, Tiger immediately came to his senses.

"Yes! General, I'll do it right away."

Tiger hung up the phone happily and rushed out of the office.

Ji Guoyuan lowered his head and looked at the receiver that produced the busy tone, hung up the phone with a sullen face, and put the phone bug into his arms.

"Finally you can't hold it any longer?"

"World Government."

"I'm afraid this is just the beginning. There should be many follow-up measures, right?"

"In that case, I have to find something for you to do. I have to keep you busy!"

Ji Guoyuan put his hands on the handle of the knife and tapped it lightly, thinking in his heart. After a while, a faint smile appeared on Jiguo Yuanyi's face.

In the East China Sea, traces of rubber fruits appeared.

Admiral Tsukuni Enichi went to the East China Sea this time with the goal of searching for traces of rubber fruits.

I don’t know since when, an “outrageous news” began to spread in the Marine Headquarters, Marinefando. The source of this news has long been impossible to find, but such gossip has spread throughout the headquarters.

Everyone in the navy got the news.

Of course, the vast majority of people responded to this news with a "sneer" attitude. Because the navy couldn't believe that General Jiguoyuan was actually interested in a rubber fruit, and even went out to look for it himself.

Many people in this department know that Chief Instructor Zefa gave Jiguoyuan a natural smoke fruit, but Jiguoyuan didn't eat it.

Enichi Tsukuni, who has no interest in precious natural devil fruits, would be interested in a superman who turns into rubber after eating it? Are you kidding me?

It's just that this news, which most of the navy scorned, entered the ears of the Five Old Stars after being passed on by some people. After learning the news, the World Government immediately took action and sent a large number of CP9s to secretly enter the East China Sea. .

Of course, these CPs were ordered to search for all kinds of devil fruits. The reason is that a certain "adult" likes to feed slaves with devil fruits to satisfy his own evil taste.

This seemingly outrageous reason has no flaws

In CP's eyes, it is not incomprehensible that the Tianlong people have such interest.

Unbeknownst to almost everyone, the East China Sea began to become turbulent.

At the same time, the red-haired pirates who had been traveling around also learned about the rubber fruit in the East China Sea from some source, and immediately took action.

Rubber fruit!

Others may not know it, but red-haired Shanks knows exactly what this thing is.

He is a man who can risk his own arm for a mythical legend!
