Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 121 What's there to be afraid of? Slaughter them all!

Dressrosa, the rooftop garden of the royal palace.

"Fufufufu~~"

Doflamingo sat by the pool, surrounded by several beautiful maids, flipping through newspapers with a broad smile.

"The Navy has produced a mad dog!"

"[Black-haired] Loya, more than half of the new pirates who arrived in the New World in the last two months have been captured by him, and his methods are quite cruel."

Several cadres were present, and many had heard of the Black Hair's reputation.

Diamanti cautioned, "Dover, it's best not to underestimate that dark-haired guy. If we let him get away with it, it might affect our business."

"Diamanti, with you here, black hair is no threat at all."

"Oh, not at all, you make it sound like I'm some kind of genius."

"No, you are indeed very powerful; you are a hero of the arena."

"Don't say that, I'm actually not that good."

"Then I won't say anything."

"Since you've put it that way, I guess I have to admit it. Yes, I am the hero of the arena. Mere black hair is nothing but trash to me!"

Diamanti abandoned his humble demeanor and revealed his arrogant nature.

The companions around them were already used to it.

"Furfurfural."

Doflamingo crossed his legs and said with a smile, "Very well, if that [black-haired] guy interferes with our business, Diamanti, you're in charge of dealing with him!"

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Diamanti was full of confidence and took on the task of dealing with the black-haired man.

In reality, the black-haired man had little to do with their business for the time being, but his area of ​​activity gradually expanded and highly overlapped with their family's business network.

Dressrosa is very close to the G-5 branch.

Those countries and underground forces that do business with their family inevitably sail in the waters near the G-5 branch, especially those involved in the slave trade.

The world's largest slave market is located in the Sabaody Archipelago next to the Naval Headquarters, and the waters near the G-5 branch are the only way to get to Sabaody from the New World.

Previously, with Vergo secretly protecting them, there had been no problems. However, since the black-haired man was not Vergo's subordinate, he might notice something amiss, and a conflict might even arise.

In order to maintain the reputation and prestige of the Don Quixote family, unstable factors must be eliminated.

Ming was relieved. A mere colonel from headquarters wasn't worth his time. His family had more important matters to attend to.

"How's it going with Caesar?"

"The progress is very good. Monet has made contact with Caesar, and Caesar himself has acknowledged the existence of artificial Devil Fruits!"

Artificial Devil Fruits!

The Donquixote Family's most important trading partner at present is Kaido, one of the Four Emperors located in the New World, who possesses a large number of weapons.

However, their family only resells weapons for Kaido and could be replaced by other underground forces at any time.

In order to get on Kaido's good side, their family must offer a product that Kaido cannot refuse, and it must be unique to their family, so as to establish an unbreakable alliance.

They received information that Kaido was collecting Zoan-type Devil Fruits in an attempt to create the strongest army of Devil Fruit users.

The opportunity is here.

According to information provided by Vergo, Vegapunk, the world's greatest genius scientist, conducted experiments on artificial Devil Fruits.

Vegapunk is the most valued figure by the World Government, even more important than the Admirals. With their family's current capabilities, they cannot even covet Vegapunk.

But the Punk Hazard Institute housed not only Vegapunk, but also many other outstanding scientists, especially Kaiser Couran, who was second only to Vegapunk.

Unfortunately, this Mr. Caesar was not of such high moral character and often went to nightclubs on nearby islands to eat, drink, and have fun.

Monet then secretly contacted Caesar under the guise of a singer, attempting to bribe him in order to obtain the method for creating artificial Devil Fruits.

As long as their family can continuously supply Kaido with artificial Devil Fruits, their family's dominant position in the underworld will never be shaken!

"Keep in touch, money's no object!"

"clear!"

Meanwhile, the countries in the waters near the G-5 branch all took notice of Loya's actions, especially those non-member states that were in despair. Receiving information about Loya's assistance was undoubtedly the only ray of light in the darkness.

"Contact the black-haired man! I'll give him everything in this country if he can save my people!"

"yes!"

Warships are sailing in the northern waters of the G-5 branch.

Lu Yun, wearing an earpiece, reported: "Colonel Loya, we have received distress signals from multiple kingdoms. The closest one is Tanin, a non-member state, where a group of slave traders is currently plundering their people."

"Slaves, you know."

Loya frowned.

Under normal circumstances, non-member states are very poor, but even so, they have resources to plunder.

Human beings themselves are also a resource.

Although the World Government's laws explicitly prohibit the buying and selling of people, such practices are actually quite common. The Celestial Dragons, who rule the world, are themselves the largest slave owners.

Under the influence of the Celestial Dragons, royalty and nobles around the world also took pride in keeping slaves.

"Head to the Kingdom of Tanin immediately, Lu Yun. Continue contact with the royal family of Tanin; I need the details!"

"yes!"

The warship quickly changed course and arrived at the southern coast of the Kingdom of Tanin in just half a day.

"Smoker, Bartolomeo, come with me. Tina, you take the warships and patrol around the island. Intercept any ships leaving the island, and attack them if necessary!"

"clear!"

Loya brought only a few people ashore and soon arrived at the agreed meeting point, a fairly conspicuous earthen slope.

Less than three minutes later, the lurking kingdom soldiers mustered their courage and appeared. They had actually been waiting nearby for a while, but had only observed from the shadows out of fear.

The sergeant, with one eye bandaged and numerous wounds on his body, was filled with disappointment upon seeing that only four reinforcements had arrived, but still respectfully inquired, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Black Hair?"

"it's me."

Loya nodded slightly and asked directly, "Where is the enemy?"

"Follow me!"

The sergeant's spirits lifted, and he hurriedly led the way, explaining the situation of the raiders: "Those thugs have been entrenched in the port for over a month, constantly plundering our people. They have powerful weapons; we are no match for them!"

"Um."

Loya nodded slightly and glanced at the squad leader.

The other soldier had a long sword at his waist, while the others had spears, but only the tips were made of metal.

The equipment was quite rudimentary.

The level of industrial development in this world varies greatly. Not all countries have the ability to mass-produce weapons, and some poor places are even still in a primitive society.

Faced with overwhelming gunfire, they truly had no ability to retaliate.

Soon, Loya witnessed the dark side of the world.

The dilapidated town was littered with corpses, and slave traders ran rampant, robbing strong humans and women as if they were humans entering a chicken coop.

The elderly, women, and children were abandoned or even killed.

"Damn it, they've actually invaded this place!"

The soldier was furious; he wasn't going to take Loya here, but to a town near the port.

"That is."

Loya looked at one of the slave traders, whose clothes had a skull and smiley face on them, the insignia of the Don Quixote family.

A word suddenly popped into my mind.

Legal looting!

Smoker noticed this too, his expression turning grim: "Loya, it's the Don Quixote family, what do we do?"

"We're already here, what else can we do!"

Loya drew his knife, his gaze icy cold!

"Kill them all!"
