After all, what would a member state that is already protected by the Navy and the World Government do with such a powerful military force if it has nothing else to do?

"If you dare to attack the Navy, be prepared to pay a heavy price. I will report this to headquarters."

The branch colonel raised his hand, signaling the navy to retaliate.

But he soon sensed something was wrong.

This noble knight order was more powerful than anyone imagined, and they actually caused the navy they led to suffer repeated defeats.

When his standard naval longsword clashed with Otruk's Lv.5 purple scimitar...

Click.

The standard naval sword was cut in two.

The curved blade landed on his shoulder, cleaving his chest open along his left shoulder, putting him back into a resurrected state.

"Navy? World Government?"

Otruk sneered, "Once I get stronger equipment and skills, the entire ocean will grovel at my feet. At that time, I will be able to buy Celestial Dragon blood, and you Marines will be my dogs!"

Member country?

He's nothing more than a loyal dog with his teeth clipped, paying huge sums of Celestial Gold every year, and groveling before the Celestial Dragons at World Government meetings. He's not even as good as those great pirates of the New World.

Strength breeds ambition.

This has already begun to make the nobles of the member states unwilling to continue serving the so-called world nobility.

"Kill them!"

Django's Black Cat Pirates also broke through the Navy's encirclement and arrived at the edge of the rift.

They were pirates to begin with, and they showed no mercy when fighting against the Navy.

in a blink,

The large navy was constantly attacked by various forces.

This was not a silent sneak attack, but rather a severing of ties with the Navy that was almost announced to the world through countless Den Den Mushi (snail phones).

Have they all gone mad?

Marinford, in the conference room.

Sengoku felt utterly overwhelmed as he watched his navy being slaughtered.

Pirates are one thing, but what kind of allure could possibly drive the complacent nobles of the member states to raise their swords against the navy?

"The dignity of the Navy is inviolable!"

Sengoku said in an icy tone, "Notify Vice Admiral Tsuru and Akainu that all forces that have attacked the Navy, whether or not they are pirates, be arrested without exception."

"Continue to deploy headquarters forces to the East China Sea!"

If this precedent of someone daring to draw his sword against the navy for petty gains cannot be stopped, then he might as well not continue being a naval admiral.

"Does it require shooting through the heart?"

Doflamingo stood at the edge of the crack, looking down at the giant heart below, feeling helpless.

He stretched out his arm, and dozens of thin threads shot out from his palm.

Super Whiplash!

The threads twisted and coalesced rapidly, forming thick pillars that lashed down at the heart, which was the size of a town.

This is one of the more powerful offensive moves among the abilities he developed from the String-String Fruit.

boom.

The thick whip struck the heart, but the seemingly soft heart was so resilient that it bounced off the whip, making a sound like striking steel.

"so hard."

"My String-String Fruit has been classified as a level 19 blue skill. If I could fully unlock it, would it be able to tear my heart apart?"

Doflamingo frowned deeply.

The enormous purple veins, tens of meters wide, were the veins and blood vessels of this giant heart. He had attacked this very weak point, but he couldn't tear it apart.

He pulled out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed back to Dressrosa.

"Young Master, what are your instructions?"

Torepol, who had been waiting by the Den Den Mushi, quickly answered the call.

He was very dissatisfied with Doflamingo's unauthorized actions and his hostility towards the Navy.

It was precisely because of Doflamingo's ruthless personality and kingly abilities that he was willing to become his subordinate and wholeheartedly assist him in conquering Dressrosa and becoming the emperor of the underworld.

But now, the other party seems to be a bit confused.

"Open the treasury of the Dressrosa Kingdom and issue a proclamation to the entire nation, declaring that the treasury belongs to me, Doflamingo, the Heavenly Demon!"

The Berries in the Kingdom's treasury are funds used to maintain the country's operation and to pay the Celestial Dragons the annual Celestial Gold fee.

Even if Doflamingo is the king of Dressrosa, according to the game's rules, he cannot use the treasury's money to make in-game purchases.

That's why he issued this order.

"Dover, do you know what you're doing? This is causing turmoil in the country!"

Trebol's expression changed drastically after hearing Doflamingo's request.

The entire kingdom's treasury,

Even though various places need to consume resources and a large amount of celestial gold needs to be prepared, the "Land of Love, Passion and Toys," with its countless tourists and free labor dolls, has a standing reserve of at least tens of billions of Berries.

Judging from the young master's words, he actually intends to hand everything over to that unknown game merchant?

madness!

Doflamingo, you are a man chosen by heaven to be born with Conqueror's Haki, how could you be so easily swayed by the game merchant?

"Is there a problem, Torrebol?"

Doflamingo's slightly gloomy voice came from the Den Den Mushi.

Torrepol sighed helplessly and said, "No, issue the order now."

"Doflamingo, as the young master of the Donquixote Family, what kind of future will you lead us into?"

Since we chose that cruel and ruthless child, we must trust him unconditionally.

He was like that, and so were the rest of the family.

"Diamanti, prepare your fighting group to suppress any rebellion!"

"Now, open the treasury of Dressrosa and allocate all its assets to the young master's private property. Kill any who resist!"

呐,

If you're going to go crazy, then go crazy to the very end, young master!

Chapter 177 The Soul Reaper Who Violated the Rules of the Game

"This is... a Lord Monster?"

The countless hairs of the giant heart, like tree roots growing from deep underground, spread continuously towards the center.

Bucky retreated repeatedly.

The ice-blue bullet was fired, but after only a few seconds of being frozen, the root-like downy hairs broke free from the ice.

Before Buggy's crew could retreat, several pirates were instantly entangled and sucked until they were reduced to shriveled human skin.

"Get out of the way!"

Hawkeye drew his black sword and unleashed a scorching flame sword aura towards the tree roots.

In a flash,

Countless tree roots were severed, and along with them, emerald flames burned into the ground.

"Something's not right. The heart is just an outer shell; the real lord monster is inside!"

Hawkeye leaped high into the air, unleashing his most powerful slash.

Clusters of emerald green flames, faintly coalescing into the shape of skulls, fiercely bit into the giant heart.

The sword energy seed within him has reached level 14.

The sword energy being swung has gradually merged with traces of will and spirit, that is, sword intent.

boom.

The enormous heart, as large as a town, developed a deep, skull-shaped crater from which blood gushed out, only to be quickly repaired.

not far away,

Zoro, who was about to rush towards Hawkeye, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"How can it be!"

Looking at that scorching slash that seemed capable of melting the air...

Zoro's eyes widened.

He had just swung his knife three times, aiming for the heart, but he couldn't even cut through the thinnest fascia and blood vessels.

He knew he was not on par with the world's strongest swordsman, but he never imagined the gap would be this huge.

but,

Instead of becoming despondent, his eyes blazed with an even stronger fighting spirit.

"His slashing technique has already reached the purple quality? As long as I keep hunting corrupted monsters, I can definitely reach the same level as him, and eventually surpass him!"

If it were my former self, I would have chosen to fight without hesitation, no matter how strong the swordsman was.

Even if it means being shattered to pieces.

She feared that if she hesitated or backed down even once, she would never be able to hold the knife firmly in front of that man again.
