Caelan led the group ashore and stepped onto the port of Dressrosa.
Behind him were more than 2,000 Marine soldiers and Gecko Moria along with his zombie army, all landing with murderous intent.
Needless to say, the Marines held deep hatred for Doflamingo, who had infiltrated the Marines as an undercover agent. They wanted nothing more than to tear him to pieces.
Moria, despite having no direct grudge against Doflamingo, felt an inexplicable sense of hostility toward him and was eager to confront him.
Caelan walked at the front, leading the others.
At that moment, seeing the legendary nation of toys, passion, and love, the women couldn't help but be amazed.
It was like a kingdom straight out of a fairy tale, filled with all kinds of dolls, and its architecture was distinctly European in style—unique and charming.
Even just looking at the port from afar, it immediately drew the women's attention.
"This country actually looks really nice."
Nami, Robin, and the others were a little surprised.
They had expected Dressrosa, under Doflamingo's rule, to be as chaotic and devastated as Alabasta was under Crocodile.
"We can't just judge by appearances. Vergo seemed very righteous on the surface. Who would've guessed he was a double agent?"
Gion looked around, pondering the truth hidden beneath this peaceful facade.
"That's true."
Nami and the others agreed.
After everything they'd experienced with Caelan, they no longer believed that pirates could truly be good people.
At the very least, Doflamingo—who worked with Caesar to abduct children on Punk Hazard and placed moles in the Marines—was definitely not a good person.
"If you have any doubts, we can look into them after we take over the place."
Caelan gazed at Dressrosa with satisfaction.
In less than two days, this kingdom would be his.
"Alright! We have to put on our best performance too!"
Motivated by Caelan's words, the girls eagerly rolled up their sleeves, ready to show their strength.
Caelan led the group toward the interior of Dressrosa.
Among the group, Monet, still wearing Seastone handcuffs, looked extremely worried. Young Master, please be careful!
Caesar, also cuffed with Seastone, was more resigned. Given the current situation, Doflamingo was clearly doomed.
At that moment, two beautiful figures—one tall, one small—ran out from the side in a panic and stopped in front of Caelan.
The older one wore a layered dance dress and had a seductive, curvaceous figure—an elegant and alluring Violet.
The little girl had mint-green hair, stood just under 1.5 meters tall, had a delicate face, and was a picture-perfect loli.
It was Sugar and Violet!
Monet looked at the two of them and instantly understood Doflamingo's plan.
But… could Sugar really succeed?
Caesar looked indifferent. He didn't recognize them at all.
After all, Sugar was the core of the Donquixote Family, and Violet was Doflamingo's hidden lover. There was no reason for Doflamingo to introduce them to Caesar.
Weren't these Sugar and Violet?
No matter what Doflamingo's intentions were in sending them here, Caelan had no reason to refuse this "gift."
"Caelan, these two could be assassins sent by Doflamingo. Kill them!"
Hancock was full of killing intent.
She was just waiting for Caelan's command to strike.
These two women screamed "vixen" from head to toe. There was no way she'd let them enchant Caelan.
Before Caelan could reply, Sugar quickly said, "Don't kill us! We came to seek refuge with Caelan-sama!"
"Oh? I see."
Hancock gave up her intention to attack but looked even colder than before.
Now, there were two more seductive vixens trying to sink their claws into Caelan.
"Seeking refuge with me?"
Caelan smiled, his tone full of hidden meaning.
"Yes! We once had a happy family, but Doflamingo…"
Sugar began to speak fluently, following the script they had rehearsed.
There were even tears forming at the corners of her eyes, making her look pitiful and innocent.
However, she quickly noticed something odd.
Why was she the only one talking?
Had Violet forgotten her lines?
Sugar gave Violet a discreet wink and whispered, "Say something already!"
Violet responded with a graceful smile and gave Caelan a deep bow.
"Caelan-sama, I've come to seek refuge with you. This is the gift I brought."
To Sugar's stunned disbelief, Violet picked her up and presented her elegantly.
Huh? I'm the gift?!
Sugar looked at Violet, completely baffled.
This scene was not in the script!
