From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 242: The Pressure from the Beasts Pirates

"No one needs your apology!"

"No matter what, the dead can't come back to life!"

"It's unforgivable! You deserve to die!"

"kill him!"

"He doesn't deserve to be the king of this country!"

……

Amid the public outrage, a distraught woman walked out with a fruit knife in her trembling hand.

"Hold her, it's dangerous!"

"Come back, he's gone crazy!"

……

The woman staggered towards King Riku step by step, ignoring everyone.

"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!"

Amid the roar, Vergo, who had already hidden back to the square from the port, had now found where Ah Hu was.

On the rooftop far away from the square, Ah Hu turned around and fired a blind shot.

"Oh!"

The bullet broke the bamboo pole covered with Armament Haki and directly knocked it back.

Ah Hu looked at Vergo: "Why don't you just hide quietly? Why do you want to jump out and die?"

Vergo held the broken bamboo pole with both hands, picked up the steak that fell on the ground and put it on his face again. "The young master is a man who will become king. It is the will of all of us in the Don Quixote family to send him to the throne."

"Oh!"

Ah Hu easily avoided the bamboo pole. There was an obvious gap in the two people's observation Haki. Ah Hu even had time to shoot again and forced Torrepol back.

"king?"

Turning back, he shot Vergo away with the butt of his gun. Ah Hu's eyes narrowed slightly and he said, "This world doesn't need a king, and the people on this sea don't need a king either!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the sniper rifle and directly knocked Monet, who was attacking him, away.

For a moment, large flakes of snow were floating on the roof.

Ah Hu laughed and said, "Natural type? A natural type with observation Haki can only take a beating."

The falling snow gathered and took shape. Monet stood beside Virgo and said, "Two people, can you hold him back?"

Virgo's hands were shaking slightly, but he didn't answer Monet's question.

Because he knew who he was facing.

One of the three main leaders of the New World's Four Emperors Pirate Group. Maybe his fighting power is not as good as that guy with wings who can fly, but he is definitely not someone who can be defeated by two people.

The two attacks just now have made him understand the power of the Four Emperors.

Fortunately...the Four Emperors Kaido did not come to Dressrosa. This is the best outcome for the family.

"I believe the young master has other cadres!"

"understood."

Then, the two of them looked at Ah Hu at the same time with firm eyes.

"What a great will... But this will is only for your ambition."

"king?"

"Bang bang!"

The muzzle of the gun swung, and two consecutive shots knocked the two people in front of him away.

"There are countless people in this world who have awakened their Conqueror's Haki. What kind of king can your so-called young master become?"

The butt of the gun swung and broke Monet's hands with one blow.

Then he covered the armament Haki with one hand and blocked Vergo's attack.

"Shh!"

"boom!"

The butt of the gun hit Vergo and he was thrown into the rubble.

"There should be no king in this world, and there should be no one who calls himself a king!"

Vergo looked up from the ruins: "Then who are you? The emperor of the New World Pirates, aren't you also pirates?"

The next moment, the streets were covered with snow.

Snow and wind gathered around Monet, and a huge dome-shaped snow house was formed at this moment, trapping Ah Hu inside.

"cough!"

After spurting out a mouthful of blood, Monet continued to use his abilities to thicken the igloo.

But the next moment...

"boom!"

A huge and dull sound exploded in it, and cracks appeared one after another.

"Oh!"

The dome-shaped igloo collapsed, and Ah Hu raised his gun at this moment.

"Bang bang bang!"

Three bullets landed at precise points to seal the victory.

Under the perception of Observation Haki, the elemental snow was caught in its entity, and Monet fell to the street in mid-air.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Monet, who kept coughing up blood, looked up at the sky where the snow had stopped falling.

"Is this all we can do?"

"No, the young master is still fighting, how can I... stop here!"

In an instant, snowflakes swept across the entire street again, rushing past Vergo who was standing in front of him.

"Monet."

Vergo's low voice sounded, and after taking a look at Monet who was outburst again at the risk of his life, his observation Haki locked onto the opposite side.

The opportunity created by the family at the cost of their lives is also the only opportunity!
His internal organs were shattered by the bullet and there was no way he could survive.

snowstorm! !

The gathered snowflakes accumulated to a low temperature enough to freeze the entire street, sweeping over Ah Hu like a blizzard and blocking his vision.

"die!"

Vergo's roar rang out, and Monet's figure also stopped at this moment.

……

"boom!!"

Amid the roar, snowflakes fell to the ground and the wind and snow stopped suddenly.

Ah Hu looked at the dead woman in the ruins, and then looked at Vergo who was only breathing his last breath.

On the cracked ground, Virgo tried to sit up, but he couldn't do it no matter what.

The bamboo poles in both hands were shattered because the difference in the strength of the Armament Haki was too great.

"puff!"

The blood in the abdominal cavity spurted out, dyeing the snowflakes on the ground red.

"So... from the very beginning... we were being plotted against, right?"

The intermittent words made Ah Hu stop and leave.

As a high-ranking official of the New World Division 5 of the Revolutionary Army, he knew that the guy in front of him had previously been undercover in G, the Revolutionary Army's stronghold, and he also knew that he was a smart man.

So... is this a guess?
"Hehe...hehe..."

Laughter rang out, and blood gushed out of Virgo's mouth like a fountain.

"Monet...as a maid...opened the palace gate, the young master plotted against...King Riku...and you...what's the difference?"

Ah Hu stepped forward and looked at Vergo, whose pupils were already dilating. "The difference is that we are here so that people like you who are endowed with will will no longer appear."

“The light of this world will come only when people learn to think for themselves, learn to distinguish right from wrong, and learn to awaken their own will.”

Vergo tried hard to see something clearly, but found that his vision was gradually becoming darker.

us?

At that time, we...

At the beginning, what I wanted was to survive.

A place like Beihai, a place full of gangsters...it is so difficult to survive.

To live, to live with dignity...is that wrong?

So why... didn't you show up earlier?
……

Dressrosa, King's Heights.

King Liku looked at Cyrus who had just been rescued, and then looked at the people in front of him.

"People of Dressrosa!"

"The Shichibukai Doflamingo has set his sights on this country. They have controlled me, the foolish king, and the guards to kill people wantonly in our country!"

“This is a war to annihilate a nation!”

"For the family behind us! For the future so that our children won't be driven as slaves!"

"Everyone in Dressrosa, take up your weapons!"

"Everyone is equal at this moment. Everyone is a warrior defending our homeland!"

"I will charge ahead. If I fall, please do not panic or save me. I beg you to charge forward bravely and kill the enemy!"

As soon as the words fell, the people gathered in the square tightened their grip on the farm tools.

Yes, at this moment, their hearts changed again.

The main cadres of the Don Quixote family were stopped by the heroes, but the other pirates were heading here to attack.

The battle in the square concerns the fate of the country, they can't let these people pass!

Because someone just said: If the heroes are besieged and defeated, then Dressrosa will no longer have the chance to repel these pirates.

"Take up arms! Protect our homeland!"

"For the family behind me, kill!"

"For the sake of my dead relatives, kill!"

……

Afterwards, King Liku led the remaining guards, followed closely by the dense crowds of people behind him.

Soon, the Don Quixote family, which was at a great numerical disadvantage, was trapped on the vast streets.

Cyrus suddenly jumped up, swung his sword before King Liku, and slashed at an old woman on the other side.

"Boom..."

A large cloud of smoke was thrown out by the opponent, and the sword in Cyrus' hand, who quickly dodged, was covered by it.

Soon, the two-handed sword became an abstract work of art and could no longer be used as a weapon.

"Ohhhhhh!"

Amidst the strange laughter, Jorah's face was extremely ferocious: "Guys, kill them! All the wealth of the Dressrosa Palace will be ours!"

Suddenly, pirates poured out.

At this moment, a pink figure rushed over and kicked Qiao La out.

Scarlett held the hilt of her sword to block a pirate's attack: "Reiju! Be careful!"

"Shh!"

A chubby man dropped from the sky and chopped Reiju with a big knife, pressing her to the ground, but there was no sign of blood.

"It's not domineering, what's going on?"

Buffalo was wondering when he was kicked away by Reiju.

Sanji, who was caught in the crowd, cheered for his sister's bravery and was almost killed by the pirates.

"Hide behind me little devil!"

A middle-aged man blocked the knife attack. The wound on his arm was so deep that the bone was visible, but he still pulled Sanji behind him.

The pirate opposite him smiled and said, "The blond kid can be sold for a good price."

The middle-aged man glared at the other party: "Get out of this country, pirates! Otherwise, I will kill you all!"

This made the pirate angry, and he forced back a guard with his sword and rushed over.

"Why can't you just be a pariah who is not even a lackey and let us rob you?"

The blade hit him head-on, and the hoe he held horizontally to block it was split in two, his chest was broken open, and blood splattered.

But just when the pirate was about to finish him off, a bullet hit his wrist and the sword fell to the ground.

"what!!!"

The injured middle-aged man jumped up and rushed forward like crazy, pressing the pirate to the ground regardless of his torn wounds and punching him again and again.

He didn't stop until he had beaten the man to death. He gasped loudly and grimaced in pain.

……

At the same time, an old man came running from a distance, wearing a tights that looked like a pervert.

"boom!"

A giant two-handed axe fell from the sky, the ground cracked, and it blocked its way.

"Lao G, that place is not suitable for you."

The old man dodged the attack with a series of backflips, and also made a weird pose.

"Beasts Pirates, as one of the Four Emperors, why do you care about the affairs of a member country? The young master is just taking back what used to belong to the Donquixote family. As for interests, anything is negotiable."

Hart, the captain of the 3rd Battalion of the New World Division of the Revolutionary Army, casually raised his giant axe and said, "You oppress Dressrosa because of the difference in combat power. Then why should we negotiate with you because of the same strength?"

Lao G frowned, his face full of wrinkles: "Then let me experience the power of the Four Emperors Pirate Group!"
