"Diamante, what do you think?"
"I don't know. Don't ask me, Pika." Diamante hugged his legs tightly, his face contorted in an intense headache. "Trebol thinks something!"
Even if Doflamingo, Vergo, and Monet were caught, the remnants of the Doflamingo Pirates still existed, and they weren't weak.
Whether it was Pika, Trebol, or Diamante, they weren't nobodies, but as expected, without their young master, they were at a loss!
At the same time, they knew that their Young Master was under the conspiracy of the World Government.
As for how they could tell all of that, it was because they knew, except for the World Government, who could catch their Young Master? Yet, it was also because they knew that everything was done by the ruler of this world that they knew they could do nothing!
Moreover, they knew that Kaidou, the leader of the Beast Pirates, was about to come, but with Kaidou's personality, they were afraid that instead of helping and supporting them, Kaidou would kill them!
It might be a little exaggerated, but with Kaidou's brutality, they believed that Kaidou would really kill them!
Trebol might seem disgusting with large snots on his nose, but even so, his mind was probably the sharpest among them. Still, he held his head for a while, and asked, "S-Should we swear our loyalty to Kaidou?"
"..." Everyone.
When everyone heard Trebol's words, they all looked at him with disbelief.
"Are you serious, Trebol?!"
Everyone in this place had sworn their loyalty to Doflamingo, and for him, he would do anything!
Yet, Trebol told them that they should give up Doflamingo and work under Kaidou?!
Was he serious!?
"Then, what do you want me to say?! If we do nothing, then we will die!"
Trebol looked at them, tears in his eyes, as he was afraid.
Without their Young Master, they were all weak!
Without their brain and the one to whom they swore their loyalty, they could do nothing!
Yes, facing the group of King Riku, they might be able to hold on, but for how long?
If the World Government sent the Marines to take care of them, then what should they do?
As Doflamingo had been caught, they had lost their status as the Seven Warlords of the Seas, and as there was also the problem of Vergon, which made them also know that they were seen in a bad light by the Marines.
Should they wait for Doflamingo?
However, as the situation had reached this point, they knew that they could do nothing, and with Doflamingo's crimes, he would enter Impel Down, the maximum-security prison for the most dangerous criminals and pirates of the World Government!
Even if they wanted to save their Young Master, they could do nothing!
Yet, if they did nothing, they knew that they would die sooner or later!
In this sea, the weak could only be devoured, and as they had become weak, sooner or later, they would die, and had to return to their previous situation, where they could only hide and swallow their humiliation to stay alive.
Moreover, with their situation, they had no way to live except for going to Kaidou!
Doflamingo had made a lot of enemies, and while he could handle them with ease, it was different with his subordinates.
"... at least, our strength isn't bad, and with the connections that Young Master has made for so long, we can be the support for Kaidou! And when the Young Master returns, then..."
With those words, all of them looked at each other, and they knew they had no choice but to do this.
Yet, while the crisis in the Dressrosa Kingdom was about to happen, many also put their focus on this kingdom, and also the reaction of the World Government, which made them weird, as this wasn't their style.
The style of the World Government had always been known as overbearing, and if they didn't like something, they would send their warships to destroy an island, country, and kill all the living beings, including plants and animals, without leaving anything behind!
Yes, it was cruel, but who could fight them, the gods of this world?
"What's wrong, Shanks?"
On the other corner of the New World, a man with red hair stared at the newspaper with doubt.
"No... I just feel that it is weird."
"Then, you are going to save the Dressrosa Kingdom?"
"No." One of the Four Emperors, Red Hair, Shanks shook his head at the question of his follower. "The balance hasn't been broken, and we still need to wait for that prophecy to come true."
Prophecy?
What kind?
Yet, they knew that until the one who had been entrusted by Shanks came, they wouldn't make their move.
As for what would happen to the Dressrosa Kingdom, no one cared much since it wasn't uncommon to see one or two kingdoms destroyed.
"Anyway, let's party!"
"Oh!"
In another place, in a famous kingdom in the New World, a large, old woman looked at the newspaper weirdly. "Why did Kaidou want that kingdom?"
"What's wrong, Mom?"
"Well, nothing."
Shaking her head, Big Mom, Charlotte Linlin, thought that Kaidou was still young, thinking that he could take down the World Government with a small conspiracy done together with Doflaming.
"By the way, where is Ace?"
Yet, the leader of the Whitebeard Pirates, Edward Newgate, didn't care and even ignored the declaration of the World Government as he knew well what kind of a bitch this organization was. Instead, he was more concerned about his favorite son, Ace, who seemed to have disappeared.
"Ace? Where is he?"
"I don't know, but you know him, right?"
"That's true. He will probably return soon, Pops. You don't have to worry since who dares to attack him?"
"Well, that's true."
Everyone, including Newgate, believed that nothing would happen to Ace since their captain, or father, was the strongest man in the world!
Edward Newgate!
Who would dare to fight against him?
As everyone continued to drink happily, a large man with an ugly face looked at the newspaper with doubt and strange anxiety.
"Why the hell did I feel like this?"
He felt that the time shouldn't have come yet, especially when he hadn't found the Devil Fruit that he had been waiting for.
'Come on...'
Biting his thumb nervously, Marshall D. Teach felt intense anxiety as he couldn't wait for that Devil Fruit to come!
Yet, even so, while all of them felt weird by the change that happened in the World Government, no one thought much about it, as they lacked the intelligence to understand what its plan was, since in their minds, ruling this world was simple, and that was by using power.
As long as one's power was greater than the World Government, then they would rule this world!
So, this public relations stunt was done by the World Government under the lead of Shinra, and it was quickly forgotten, but even so, all of them knew well that to quell the anger of the Beast, Kaidou, the Dressrosa Kingdom would be destroyed!
