Recovering from severe injuries?
How to fight this?
The whole place was dead silent.
Recalling the various abilities of Sasuke, Naruto, and the other five, the Donquixote Family felt somewhat powerless.
And deeply confused.
These five.
Are they really Empire soldiers?
Shouldn't they be elites?
Any one of them could be a cadre in the family, many members thought.
Seeing many members lost and dejected, Pica screamed: "Pull yourselves together, Doffy won't lose!"
Oh my god.
This voice.
Stunned Sasuke, Naruto, and the other five.
A strong man nearly five meters tall, emitting such a sharp voice that seriously mismatched his figure.
"Not good!"
After Pica screamed.
His face immediately turned ugly as he looked at Sasuke, Naruto, and the others. He didn't need to think to know it would cause ridicule.
Because his voice had caused too much ridicule, making him taciturn and unsmiling since childhood.
But to Pica's astonishment.
Sasuke, Naruto, and the others only flashed a look of astonishment, then ignored it, not pointing fingers at him.
"Didn't they hear? Impossible..."
Seeing people not laughing at him for the first time, Pica was a bit unaccustomed and at a loss.
"How could it be like this?"
Rosinante, who had been secretly observing Sasuke, Naruto, and the others, found it hard to understand.
Laughing at Pica's voice.
Is the normal reaction, right? Anyone else would have laughed loudly the first time they heard it.
In the future, a creature called the protagonist would also have a face full of ridicule.
Not just Sasuke, Naruto, and the other five.
The other Holy Soldiers only looked at Pica in surprise and had no other reaction.
"Fufufufufu, interesting, what a Holy Empire..."
Under Doflamingo's sunglasses, his eyes were slightly complicated.
Clearly domineering, arrogant, and a bit rampant, yet any soldier of the Empire has cultivation.
Seeing the big from the small.
The difference between the Empire and other kingdoms is huge.
At least the education is very good.
Holy Soldiers: What expression is that? That voice is obviously the other party's physiological defect. If we laugh at even this, we would have no quality, no upbringing.
"So, looking at you, you don't seem to want to fight?"
Seeing Doflamingo retract all the white threads, Gaara was somewhat surprised.
Sasuke snorted coldly: "He would lose anyway, smart."
"Fufufufufu, whatever, I admit defeat..."
Doflamingo spread his hands, his heart full of mixed feelings, extremely complicated.
He, a 22-year-old adult.
The opponents, five 13 or 14-year-old children.
Even using Devil Fruit Awakening didn't take them down. How could the arrogant Doflamingo accept this?
Given the five's dodging speed, endless means, and terrifying ability to recover from severe injuries.
Doflamingo found there was only one way to defeat the five without killing them.
That is a war of attrition.
Defeat them by exhausting their stamina.
"Fufufufufu, if I win by exhausting five brats, I would be too laughable..."
Thought he was the next king.
Unexpectedly, still a bronze.
Doflamingo was a little sad.
Like this.
What can he use to retaliate against the entire Celestial Dragon race!
Even if he joins the Empire, he might only be an ordinary civilian, after all, he couldn't even take down five soldiers.
How would the Empire's higher-ups view this?
Higher-ups: Can't even beat a few children, trash is not worthy of joining the Empire government, go farm!
Thinking of this possibility.
Doflamingo was full of self-mockery and confusion about the future.
Can he only farm while watching the Empire attack Mary Geoise?
No, he wants to do it himself!
Under the bated breath of the family members, Doflamingo lowered his arrogant head and restrained his smile.
"I know the Empire is powerful, and my strength is not enough to attract attention, but strength is not my main talent..."
"I know the secrets of the Celestial Dragons, can bring benefits to the Empire's economy, and can..."
Racking his brains, Doflamingo said a lot, finally full of pleading:
"I hope you can give me a chance to meet the Empire's high-level officials, I would be grateful."
Young Master.
Vergo and the others lowered their heads one after another.
If the Empire's high-level officials were not here, fists would be the hard truth.
They couldn't bear to see the Young Master compromising with a few Empire soldiers.
"Secrets of the Celestial Dragons?"
Haku glanced at Doflamingo in confusion, then said indifferently: "I can tell you with certainty, the Empire's high-level officials are not interested in these."
In an instant.
Doflamingo's heart sank to the bottom.
"But!"
Gaara's word.
Reignited hope for Doflamingo.
Not asking for much, just let him follow when the Empire attacks Mary Geoise, to take revenge personally.
But being an Empire civilian makes it impossible to follow the army. At least join the Empire government, be a Holy Soldier, right?
That's right.
Doflamingo realized.
Why be obsessed with being an Empire elite? Being a Holy Soldier is fine too.
After seeing the strength of Sasuke, Naruto, and the others, Doflamingo no longer felt being a Holy Soldier was shameful.
"His Majesty has an order."
Gaara's words.
Made everyone hold their breath.
Doflamingo's heart also skipped a beat.
Suddenly involved His Majesty.
The World Government seems powerful, but excluding some heritage of the Celestial Dragons, it is just composed of more than 170 member nations.
It's an alliance.
Not a country.
But the Holy Empire is.
Doflamingo didn't need to think.
To know that the Majesty in Shikamaru's mouth is the absolute ruler.
One word determines life and death.
And must be a terrifying existence far surpassing all the Empire people he has seen.
Gaara spoke solemnly: "Any Conqueror's Haki user who submits to the Holy Empire will be temporarily examined, screened, managed, and trained by the Holy Soldier unit. When His Majesty descends to this world, they will follow the Grand Captain to have an audience with His Majesty, Emperor of the Holy Empire."
Whoosh!
A turn of events.
Doflamingo felt his mood was like a roller coaster, wanting to punch Gaara.
Why didn't you say so earlier?
Resulting in a fight.
Doflamingo believed that even with examination and screening, he would always remain.
Hold on until the moment he sees the Lord of the Empire.
"..."
Sasuke, Naruto, and the others felt bored.
When Doflamingo submitted to the Empire and erupted with Conqueror's Haki, it should have been said.
But they wanted to fight.
So Gaara didn't say it at the time.
"State your name, are you sure you submit to the Empire?"
Looking at the solemn Gaara.
Doflamingo also spoke extremely seriously: "I, Donquixote Doflamingo, submit to the Holy Empire and offer everything of the Donquixote Family."
Here, Doflamingo knelt on one knee, his voice uncontrollably full of hatred:
"If the Empire allows me to participate in revenge when attacking Mary Geoise."
"I am willing to give my life for the Empire!"
Seeing the Young Master so solemn.
Vergo and other subordinates half-knelt one after another, swearing submission in unison.
No matter how thorny the road ahead is.
They will accompany the Young Master to walk down it.
Seeing the firm eyes of all family members, Doflamingo was touched.
Family, you have suffered.
"Didn't expect this guy to have so many loyal subordinates."
Sasuke somewhat understood why the great Majesty specifically asked for Conqueror's Haki users.
Because every Conqueror's Haki user.
Has a unique charisma.
"In that case."
"Assist the Empire in taking over this island, clear all hidden dangers, kill those who refuse without mercy!"
Hearing Gaara's words, Doflamingo stood up and nodded; it should be done.
Squadron Leader Gaara waved his hand: "Holy Soldiers listen to the order, set up the barrier, take this place!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Over a hundred Holy Soldiers dispersed.
Seeing this.
Doflamingo also signaled Vergo and the others to help.
"Fufufufufu..."
Since joining the Empire, we are all family.
Doflamingo couldn't be reserved with a few children.
Walking to Gaara's side, Doflamingo smiled expectantly: "If it's convenient, can you tell me about the Empire? Also, what about the examination and screening?"
Not to mention anything else.
In terms of the North Blue.
Who can be more outstanding than me, Doflamingo?
"You will know about the Empire soon."
Gaara collected the sand and spoke casually,
"Empire civilians don't need it, but those who join the Empire government, whether military, political, or the Academy of Sciences, the first step is to examine the soul and store it in the Intelligence Department archives."
"Screening is simple. Conqueror's Haki users are as common as carps in the river, not everyone is qualified to have an audience with His Majesty, assessment is needed."
"..."
Screening is normal.
There are trash Conqueror's Haki users.
But.
Doflamingo asked in confusion: "Examining the soul... is useful?"
Gaara said indifferently: "Will, character, memory, identity, etc., cannot escape the Soul Investigation Technique."
?
Vergo and the others listening quietly were also stunned.
Rosinante was even more shocked.
Memory... can also be checked?
"So that's it..."
Doflamingo marveled at the Empire's means.
But didn't feel it was wrong.
Every force dreams of this ability, right? To avoid chaos.
Glancing at the helping family members, Gaara asked: "Do they also want to join the Empire government? If so, I regret to tell you, few people are qualified."
Doflamingo nodded.
Not regretting this.
Family is family.
Anyway, they are all Empire citizens.
But if they can join, it's naturally good. Doflamingo chuckled: "Fufufufufu, you can also let them try, maybe there will be a surprise."
Gaara also smiled: "That's right, if a traitor appears, that would be a huge surprise..."
Doflamingo's expression sank: "We are all family, is this appropriate?"
Those are all his family members.
How can he doubt his family!
"His Majesty once said, betrayal you can see is not terrifying, what's terrifying is the betrayal you can't see."
Gaara shrugged indifferently: "Precisely because we are family, I have to remind you. Originally pirates, even if they choose not to join the Empire government, everyone must be examined."
Damn it.
Suspecting his family.
Doflamingo laughed in anger: "Fufufufufu, good, don't you want to examine? Start now."
"If there is no surprise..."
Before Doflamingo finished speaking, Gaara said seriously: "If I overthought, then I apologize and take you to see the Grand Captain."
"Good!"
Thus.
Doflamingo didn't say much.
Waved to signal all family members.
Very quickly, all members gathered.
"Naruto, Shikamaru..."
Gaara also signaled Shikamaru and Naruto, glancing at Rosinante.
Suspicion is not without reason.
From the beginning, he found this guy wrong.
Always keeping his head down and acting sneaky.
Seeing Gaara's gaze, Doflamingo's face turned darker: "Don't tell me you suspect him. He is my brother, biological."
"Wow..."
Naruto exclaimed inexplicably.
Eyes were strange.
Shikamaru looked at Rosinante a few more times and said directly: "Since he is your brother, there should be no problem. Let's start with him."
"I..."
While Doflamingo was speaking.
Suddenly catching a glimpse of Rosinante's changing expression, Doflamingo was in a trance for a moment.
Did I see wrong?
While Doflamingo was in a trance.
Shikamaru took a step forward.
Rosinante took a step back.
Under the disbelieving gazes of Doflamingo and the others, Rosinante smiled bitterly: "Sorry, Doffy."
Swish!
Before the words fell.
Rosinante turned and ran!
Seeing this scene.
Doflamingo was sluggish.
Why run?
Shikamaru spoke faintly: "Actually, Soul Investigation Technique, that's a technique only Grand Captains know. I was just... bluffing you."
Boom!
Conqueror's Haki erupted.
Vergo and the others also looked ugly.
Doflamingo's expression changed repeatedly, finally laughing with anger:
"Fufufufufu, you are my biological brother. I am so angry I can't be angrier, can only laugh loudly."
"Why, did you betray me!"
