Ignite the fire from the pirates

"apologize?"

"Will an apology bring my child back?"

"Will an apology bring my husband back to life?"

"There is nothing left..."

"nothing left!"

With a hoarse roar, the fruit knife stabbed towards King Riku.

"puff!"

The blade stabbed in, staining Scarlett's shoulder with blood, and at the same time scratched the woman's hand, causing it to slip out of her grasp.

"I'm sorry, it's all because of us that you are in so much pain."

Scarlett endured the pain and looked at the woman's injured hand with a worried look on her face.

This scene made Sanji in the crowd unable to bear it anymore.

As someone who knew the dark inside story, he really couldn't understand why there was no explanation and no exposure of Doflamingo.

Wouldn't it be better to tell the truth to the public while that scary guy is being held back by the sniper? This is outrageous!

So... he decided to do something.

"Are all of you fools?"

A childish voice sounded in the crowd, and then changed direction the next moment.

"King Riku's sad expression is not fake! His kindness to the people of this country in the past was also not fake!"

Changing positions again, Sanji pinched his throat and said, "Use your brains to think and figure out the whole thing, you idiots! Isn't it worth your while to think about the strangeness of a wise monarch who has been the same for decades?"

"There are devil fruits in this world that give people a variety of abilities. That guy just now, that Doflamingo, wasn't he using string to block the bullets?"

"Controlling puppets with strings, this is one of the abilities of the String-String Fruit!!!"

The childish roar echoed throughout the square before disappearing into the crowd again.

Doflamingo's face turned ugly, and his observation Haki was unable to lock onto Sanji because he was guarding against the sniper in the distance.

However, on the high tower, Trebol, who had outstanding observation Haki, had already discovered Sanji.

He waved his arms and the slime shot towards Sanji like a cannonball.

"boom!"

A bullet from Ahu shattered it, but it also made Doflamingo move.

"You're talking nonsense!"

The thin wire cut, but was blocked by Pica's knife.

"You dare to stand in front of me, you bastard from the Beasts Pirates?"

Kill!

The lines were as sharp as claws, with the armed color domineering applied on them, and the furious domineering color domineering also resounded through the sky.

"boom!"

The slashing attack was met with a sudden retreat of Pika, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

"It's really rare for a newcomer from the North Sea to have reached this level!"

Doflamingo looked at him and said, "Dressrosa is a member of the World Government. As one of the Four Emperors, the Beasts Pirates, there is no point for you to come here!"

Pica said with a mocking look on his face: "Do you think you are in control of everything? As pirates, we are here only if there is profit."

The moment the words fell, Doflamingo retreated.

"Oh!"

A bullet shattered the ground where he had just stood, leaving a hole.

At the same time, the sniper perceived by his observation color has locked onto him again.

"One of the big names of the Beasts Pirates, the sniper Tiger?"

Doflamingo looked up.

As their eyes met at such a distance, Ah Hu smiled at him and mouthed: Don't move. If you move again, I'll blow your head off.

The feeling of humiliation almost made Doflamingo's sensitive heart explode, but that dangerous feeling always locked onto him.

At this time, all the people of Dressrosa in the square looked at King Riku and Scarlett who were kneeling on the ground with excitement.

"King Riku! That voice just now..."

"Is it true, King Riku?!"

"What's wrong with this world?! Why is it so fake?"

"Speak, King Riku!"

"We are manipulated like clowns. We just want to live!"

"Even if you are a pariah, you have the right to live, right?"

"Tell us, King Riku! If this is really the case, compromise will only lead to a more tragic fate!"

……

For a moment, the voices that had previously urged them to take up arms were heard again in the square.

"Stick to the will to resist!"

"If you lay down your weapons, you will become a lamb to be slaughtered. Only by standing up and resisting can you survive!"

……

In the crowd, the men of Dressrosa looked at the weapons at their feet, and then looked at the position of the sniper Ahu and the swordsman who had just stopped Doflamingo.

Yes, the lucky mentality in their hearts emerged again.

These people... should be good people, right?

They...will protect us?

We are just weak people, just ordinary people. As long as these good people take action, we can be saved.

It doesn’t matter if you want money or anything else, as long as the family can survive, nothing else matters.

Such thoughts kept coming up, and no one took up arms.

"Hehe...we are not good people."

Pica's voice rang out, his eyes sweeping over all the people: "We are pirates as well, and we are here only because your king paid a price. And as a deal, we will help you stop several key cadres of the Don Quixote family."

cadre?

Isn't there only this guy in front of me called Doflamingo?

For a moment, everyone looked at King Riku with joy in their eyes.

"Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty King Liku, you..."

"We were wrong!"

"So you were controlled, huh? By the evil pirates?"

……

Under the people's constant questioning, King Liku finally chose to explain.

Doflamingo, who was standing by, looked at Pica with a strange look in his eyes: "Just blocking me and the cadres? Do you think this group of ordinary people can win?"

"Of course I can't win."

Bica smiled and said, "If they don't really understand why they are fighting, how can they survive... Then all that awaits them is failure and death."

"I'm talking about the main cadres, not all of them."

Hearing this, Doflamingo's sunglasses flashed: "What King Riku promised you, I can also give to the Beasts Pirates, or even more!"

Bika spread his hands and said, "You said I was a lackey... How could I be the master?"

At this time, King Riku, who was surrounded by the people, slowly stood up, and Scarlett followed behind him.

"This is different from what we agreed on."

King Riku looked at Pika.

However, a voice came from a distance, approaching from far away, and jumped down.

"We...are not good people, King Riku!"

A tall figure wearing a black iron mask landed on the ground and locked eyes with King Riku. "You should know what our purpose is, right? You are unqualified to be a king, but as one of the few educated people in this world, I think you can figure it out."

Hearing this, King Riku gradually loosened his tightly clenched hands.

He could indeed figure out that the background of the man who left behind the Den Den Mushi and the stories of some countries in this ocean had spread throughout the world through the New Era News in recent years.

As a king, he naturally knew some of the hidden meanings.

But at the same time, this is also what he is worried about.

Even though the one who appeared now was not the gentleman from the Revolutionary Army but the Beasts Pirates.

But to let the people take up arms and awaken their will...

"Fufufufufu..."

Doflamingo's laughter rang out, interrupting King Riku's thoughts.

"We encountered the Four Emperors Pirates just as the operation began. What a coincidence!"

Upon hearing this, Jhin looked towards Doflamingo.

In an instant, red thunder filled the square, and the collision of domineering auras made everyone feel oppressed.

"boom!"

"Retreat! Leave the square!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone was intentionally separated and left the square in an orderly manner.

In fact, if it weren't for Jhin's domineering aura that was intended to resist and disperse, at least 80% of the people in this group would have been knocked out by this domineering aura.

Pika held the hilt of the knife tightly, and the force of the blow made him squint his eyes.

"The second captain's domineering control has become even stronger."

As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of stone in the square beneath him suddenly bulged up.

"Damn you, die!"

A sharp sound was heard, but Pica jumped up, swung the long sword in his hand, and slashed past.

"Om..."

The ground was cut and rubble was scattered everywhere.

"Hehehe! You bastard can't hurt me, you minion of the Beasts Pirates, die here."

The broken rocks suddenly came together as if they had life, and a giant rock hand smashed down again.

"boom!"

The gravel exploded with a loud roar, and Pika jumped up, holding the long sword tightly in his hand.

"Break!"

With a roar, the slash passed by like the wind.

The giant hand formed of rock was cut off inch by inch and fell down, but the sharp sound still existed.

At the same time, Torrepol slid down from the tower like liquid and headed towards King Riku who was surrounded by the people.

"Oh!"

The bullet and mucus exploded, the armed color domineering on Torrepol's shoulder was broken, and blood stained his clothes red.

"Damn sniper! Vergo!"
