Chapter 329 Big change, legal successor! (2-in-1)

On the coast of Dressrosa, Don Quixote and his party from the West Sea got off the boat one after another and gathered behind Doflamingo.

Everyone looked at the bustling port in front of them, and everyone had a bright smile on their face. Only Corazon, who was wearing the same shirt of different colors as Doflamingo, was holding a cigarette and had a slight smile on his face.

“I never thought that our generation would have the opportunity to set foot on this land.”

"Isn't this fate? Now, do you think so? Corazon!"

Doflamingo stepped on the land of Dressrosa, his smile did not diminish, and his tone was a little more emotional. As he spoke, Doflamingo turned his head slightly and looked at Cora behind him. Song, asked aloud.

Corazon faced Doflamingo's inquiry with a look of reminiscence and longing on his face, and then nodded slightly, the corners of his mouth raised a little wider.

Seeing his brother seemed very happy, Doflamingo was in a good mood. He suddenly opened his arms, took a deep breath, walked to Corazon's side, and hugged Corazon. shoulder and whispered in Corazon's ear:

"After defeating Dressrosa, I can become a Celestial Dragon again."

"Corazon, don't worry, I will definitely let those guys recognize your and my identities again."

"When the time comes, no one will be able to bully us brothers."

"Not only that, I also want those people to pay the price!"

"Fufufufufufufufufu!"

As he spoke, Doflamingo suddenly chuckled. Behind him, a group of members of the Don Quixote family looked at the Doflamingo brothers with somewhat fanatical eyes.

"Na~Na~"

"Dover, don't forget your family when the time comes!"

"Hehe, hehehe!"

Torrebol came to Doflamingo's side, pointed to his nose, and said with a smile.

Doflamingo heard this, patted Torebol's shoulder gently, and responded with a smile: "Of course, you are my family!"

In Doflamingo's mind, family is really an important thing.

For Doflamingo, the closest and dearest person is actually his mother. However, since their family left the Holy Land, as former Celestial Dragons, they have not been able to live a normal life at all. The house has been destroyed. They were burned, their property was taken away, and even they themselves were caught and tried to be burned to death by people who hated the Celestial Dragons.

During the critical moment, although their family survived thanks to Doflamingo's awakening of the Overlord's Haki, Doflamingo's most cherished mother died of illness during the escape.

He blamed his father for his mother's death. In order to regain his "right to live", he personally killed his father in order to return to the Holy Land.

The ideal is very fulfilling, but the reality is very cruel.

The Tianlong people who have left the Holy Land have been regarded as "ordinary pariahs" by the Five Old Stars. How can they return to the Holy Land if they want?

The tragic experience of his childhood made Doflamingo, who was "born evil", completely distorted, but in his heart, Doflamingo needed to find a fully reasonable justification for his evil deeds that could convince his inner heart. reason.

The word "family" has become the driving force for his actions. As long as it is for his family, it doesn't matter if he kills his father; as long as it is for his family, murder, arson, robbery and plunder are justified.

But essentially, everything Doflamingo does is ultimately for himself.

In his mind, he is far greater than his family.

Because of this, his biological father who made Doflamingo suffer when he was a child deserves to die; Corazon who later betrayed him also deserves to die; when his "family members" have a negative influence on him or After it is no longer valuable to him, he deserves to die.

But then again, Doflamingo still treats his useful "family" very favorably.

The true essence of the Don Quixote family, which Doflamingo established under the coaxing of Torrebol and others, is a collection of interests. Is it because of family ties that Thorebol and others are surrounding Doflamingo? Don't be ridiculous, that's because Doflamingo has displayed his "king" qualifications since he was a child!

The arrival of the Don Quixote family did not attract too many people's attention. In Dressrosa, commerce has been very developed in recent years, and there are countless passengers and merchant ships passing by.

The Coast Guard will only be dispatched when facing pirates, and will basically not review passing merchant ships.

The Don Quixote family did not fly the pirate flag and did not cause any commotion after arriving on the island, so no one knew about their arrival.

After arriving on the island, Doflamingo dispersed his men and went to the city to gather information.

He wanted to confirm a piece of information, confirming that Enichi Tsukuni and his men had indeed withdrawn from the island. Doflamingo is a cautious person, and he doesn't want to get himself into trouble that he can't handle.

Although Jiguoyuan is no longer the admiral of the navy headquarters, his reputation in the navy can be said to have completely disappeared. But this does not mean that people like Jiguo Enichi are the ones that the Don Quixote family can provoke at this stage.

Even if he is wanted by the World Government, if Enichi Tsukuni still regards Dressrosa as his territory and takes action rashly, big problems may arise.

When his subordinates went to gather information, Doflamingo himself wandered around the city with Corazon.

A few hours later, members of the Don Quixote family who went out to inquire for information met up with Doflamingo and Corazon one after another. The basic situation of the country was also reported to Doflamingo.

"Jikuni Enichi and his Dawn Sword Navy have indeed all left."

"The Whitebeard Pirates came to Dressrosa more than a month ago, but we have already inquired and found out that this is not the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates."

“They didn’t ‘plant a flag’ here!”

"The naval branch of the Sword of Dawn here has been taken over by King Riku III's troops, responsible for both coastal defense and urban security."

"The leader of the guard is the son-in-law of King Riku III."

"and"

"I heard about a thing. After Kunoyuanichi and his men returned to the island, a demonstration broke out on the island to oppose his entry into the island."

"Dressrosa must have completely severed ties with the forces behind the country!"

It is extremely easy for the members of the Don Quixote family to find out information. And the information they found out is well known to the people on the island.

At that time, there was a lot of commotion about the Whitebeard Pirates' landing on the island. Some people, even those who had never seen the Whitebeard Pirates with their own eyes, heard the sirens on the coast at that time. Afterwards, they and the members of the Whitebeard Pirates There are also a lot of people in contact, so this kind of information is easy to find out.

As for the news about Jiguoyuan, it is even easier. There were many people participating in the previous protests on the island, and the movement was very loud, but Jiguoyuan and his ships could be seen leaving the island.

And the Sword of Dawn's base in Dressrosa was indeed taken over by the country's military. Those soldiers usually spent money in bars and restaurants around the base. Some things had already spread widely.

"The world government removed its status as a franchise country."

"It's not the territory of some maritime overlord."

"In this case, wouldn't Dressrosa become a 'Borderless Land'?!"

After the information from his subordinates was gathered to Doflamingo, a smile suddenly appeared on Doflamingo's face and he let out a chuckle.

He suddenly felt that God was still favoring him. If such a country with developed transportation and prosperous commerce could be controlled in his hands, it would be an excellent boost for his career development.

"Dover, I have some news."

"It's also kind of important."

Just when Doflamingo began to look forward to his future in his mind, Senior Piqué suddenly spoke out.

At this time, Senior Pique had not yet changed into his "big boy outfit". Instead, he was wearing a straight suit, with a slim figure and sunglasses, making him look like a "handsome boy".

"Well?"

Hearing this, Doflamingo murmured softly and turned his head to look at Senior Peake.

"The commander of the city defense army is the son-in-law of King Liku III."

"My name is Cyrus. He was once the base commander of the Sword of the Dawn naval branch in Dressrosa."

"Former Vice Admiral, now a wanted criminal with a bounty of 600 million!"

As soon as Señor Piqué finished speaking, the rest of the Don Quixote family couldn't help but look at each other. In today's era, the means of information circulation are very limited. The only way for ordinary people to receive information is official newspapers.

Before coming to Dressrosa, no one at Don Quixote knew that there was such a relationship between Cyrus and King Liku's family.

"Cyrus"

Doflamingo murmured, frowning slightly. Corazon's reaction was also very fast. He took out a stack of bounty orders from somewhere, quickly found Cyrus' wanted order, and handed it to Doflamingo's hand.

At the same time, he took out a drawing board from nowhere and quickly wrote something on it:

"Brother, give up here."

"This island is inextricably linked to Jiguo Enichi."

"The risk is too great, it's better to retreat."

Corazon knew very well what kind of character his eldest brother was. If he were allowed to take charge of Dressrosa, he could not imagine what this country would look like.

Taking this opportunity, Corazon just wanted to persuade Doflamingo to leave here quickly.

Doflamingo's eyes quickly swept over the drawing board in his brother's hand, with a thoughtful look on his face, and there was indeed some hesitation in his heart.

"Now, Dover!"

"I don't think there's anything to worry about!"

"That Cyrus must have 'separated' from Ji Guoyuan!"

"He is King Riku's son-in-law. After Jiguoyuanyi was deprived of his position as general, there is no future for him to continue to follow Jiguoyuanyi, right?"

"Instead of leaving in despair like a lost dog like Jiguo Enichi, why not stay and continue to be the king's son-in-law!"

"Hehehe, the family must be separated! The family is separated!"

While Doflamingo was thinking, Torrebol's voice came from the side, patting Doflamingo's back gently and encouraging him.

Torebol has fallen in love with this prosperous and stable country. The place they were in before was, after all, too small and could not compare with the prosperity of the "big country".

How could Torebol be willing to give up a place like this just because "it may be related to Jiguo Enichi"?

Torebol's words made Doflamingo's brows gradually widen. Without giving others a chance to express their opinions, he chuckled and said:

"Fufufufu——"

"No rush. We have time."

"Just stay in Dressrosa for now."

"Observe and observe, won't you get the answer?"

Doflamingo said as he looked around the shops, then found a hotel and walked over. As he walked, he said to the people behind him:

"Don't be idle during this period."

"No matter where it is, there are always some forces in the shadows."

"Let us, the Don Quixote family, take control of the underground forces here first!"

The Don Quixote family stayed in a hotel in Dressrosa. Some time later, Doflamingo's men "beat up" a large local sugar merchant in Dressrosa and annexed it. He took over the other party's property and then lived in the other party's manor.

This incident did not cause any commotion, because on the surface, the big businessman suddenly went crazy when he went out to play with his family, hacked his family to death with a knife, and then committed suicide.

This scene was seen by many people at the time, so the city defense army's investigation process was very fast, and the case was closed in just three days. As for industry, Doflamingo is not a person without funds. He can easily obtain it by throwing money and using some small tricks.

The sugar business was a big industry in the New World.

In other words, sugar business is a big industry in any chaotic situation!

Although Dressrosa is peaceful all year round, the New World is not. As a strategic material, sugar is a "bulk commodity" in the true sense.

With the industry in hand, Doflamingo used business as a cover while developing an intelligence system, collecting information on the island, and learned some things about Cyrus.

Then, one day more than a month later, Doflamingo used a cargo of fishing to catch a big pirate in the New World with a bounty of 150 million, and came to Dressrosa to snatch the cargo. .

At the same time, Doflamingo also deliberately leaked information about the big pirate to the city defense forces controlled by Cyrus, causing the two forces to "unexpectedly encounter" at sea.

A big battle broke out between the two sides, and Cyrus finally killed the great pirate's pirate group after paying the price of hundreds of his men.

Doflamingo, who watched the battle from a distance, had a preliminary understanding of the strength of Cyrus and his city defense forces. After roughly understanding the strength of his opponent, Doflamingo's claws, Finally, he reached out to King Liku's family.

At night, the window of King Liku III's bedroom suddenly opened, and a soft sound came into the room.

"clatter!"

Under the moonlight, a tall and slender figure landed in front of the window sill.

Doflamingo sat on the window sill and looked briefly at the furnishings in King Riku's room with a smile on his face.

King Riku III, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, was born as a warrior and his intuition was very sensitive. Not long after Doflamingo appeared, he suddenly woke up from his sleep. When he raised his eyes, he saw many people sitting in front of the window. Flamenco.

"who!"

King Riku woke up suddenly, jumped up from the bed, grabbed the long sword hanging on the wall, pulled out the sharp blade, and looked at Doflamingo coldly.

"Furfurfural."

"My name is Donquixote Doflamingo!"

"I came here just to take back our family's ancestral land."

Hearing this, King Liku's eyes widened slightly, with a bit of confusion in his eyes, and he murmured in surprise: "Don Quixote?"

Then he quickly walked out of the surprised mood, looked at Doflamingo carefully for a few times, recognized him, and then frowned and said:

"Doflamingo"

"You must be one of the Shichibukai that the World Government mentioned some time ago."

"Ancestral land. Hundreds of years ago, this country was indeed controlled by the Don Quixote family."

"But after the Don Quixote family became the Celestial Dragons, they abandoned this country."

"It is us who have reunited the people of this country and built this country with heart."

"Hundreds of years later, Don Quixote's tribe is saying that they want to take back their ancestral land?"

"It's too ridiculous."

"Not to mention you are a pirate!"

After listening to King Riku's words, Doflamingo just smiled and did not refute anything.

"I am the legal owner of this country."

"Soon enough, you just realize it."

"Fufufufu——"

As he spoke, Doflamingo jumped slightly and disappeared from the window sill.

"boom!!!"

King Riku rushed to the window and was about to check where Doflamingo had gone when he heard a sudden loud noise from the town not far away.

After the loud noise, the blazing fire instantly illuminated the night. Even if King Riku was far away from the explosion point, he could still see a sudden strange appearance in the distance.

"This this."

"Is it an attack?!"

King Liku was shocked. He quickly picked up his long sword, put on his light helmet, and hurriedly left the bedroom.

The changes in the city had attracted the attention of the guards in the palace. At this moment, King Liku also had people blow the rallying horn. Not long after, King Liku led a group of guards on horseback toward the explosion. The direction rushed over.
