Chapter 474: First Encounter with Flamingo, Aggression at Full Throttle
"There should be a limit to how much you can look down on me, right?" Ye Yan felt that he was being despised a little too much.
Zhang Da also apologized insincerely: "Sorry, I stereotyped you."
In fact, Zhang Da didn't do anything. On the night before leaving, he took advantage of the night and, under the guidance of Sui Feng'er, he and Ye Yan sneaked into the king's bedroom. Then the two them took turns using a timer hammer to help the king change his sleep quality.
As for the specific duration after the timer hammer accumulates - I forgot, it shouldn't be too long. The two of them just kept fighting until their true energy was exhausted. When Zhang Da carried the exhausted Ye Yan away, it was still dark.
The subsequent incidents of hiding books in the fish's belly and spreading rumors were all done by the flag monsters after they left. After the flag monsters were done, they would float back on the life cards.
As for why the handwriting on those strips of cloth looked so much like that of the Secretary of State, Tom knew a little bit about how to imitate other people's handwriting.
According to the flag monsters' investigation of Lancel and Nihalonbai, after the king got into trouble, Lancel's character should make him try his best to assist the princess, but Nihalonbai would most likely have thoughts that he shouldn't have.
Zhang Daye and his men's actions will magnify Nihalombai's ambitions, and he will then have a conflict with Lanser.
However, the military power is in Lancel's hands, and Lancel's military strength is also higher. The saying "political power comes from the barrel of a gun" is not wrong.
Once Lancel defeats Nihalombai and puts down the "rebellion," his prestige among the nobles will rise sharply. Furthermore, he already has a high reputation among the common people...
Even if he himself did not want to be king, he could at least become a "prime minister", "father of the prime minister", or even a "regent".
Lancel's character destined him to not be harsh on the people under his rule. When the king wakes up after a while and wants to restore his previous tyranny, Lancel and the people at that time will probably not be able to tolerate it.
Zhang Daya had been worrying about how to compensate the residents of the port town. He thought that in addition to helping rebuild the port, he might as well help them choose a good king.
Zhang Da also felt that he was thinking about the people of the Kingdom of Lulucia this time, so no one should misunderstand him as being narrow-minded, right?
"Tatsuya, why are you so good at... this?" Artoria considered her words, but in the end, she couldn't think of how to describe Zhang Tatsuya's plan. Should she call it a rebellion? Or overthrowing the royal family? Neither seemed quite appropriate.
"I'm not very good at it, I just happened to learn it in school. In fact, our work this time was quite rough." Zhang Da was also very humble. This was the first time he put theory into practice and he had no experience, so the approach he took was too simple and crude. He felt that there should be many areas that could be optimized.
As a princess, Weiwei found this unbelievable, even horrifying: "What kind of school would specifically teach something like this?"
If everyone understood what Tatsuya's brother said, "When the great Chu rises, Chen Sheng will be king," and "The king is dead, a minister should be appointed," would the country really not be in chaos?
"It's not a special lesson, it's just common history. Most people won't use it in their lifetime." Zhang Da didn't want to talk about it anymore. "We'll be there soon. I don't know if Doflamingo is still here. If you run into him, remember to be careful."
It took the Amber Tour Group less than a day to return to the Navy Headquarters at full speed on the warship, but the matter of the Kingdom of Lulucia would not be resolved in a day or two, so we could only wait and read in the newspapers to find out what happened next.
…
Zhan Guo is in a very bad mood now. The matter of Rosinante has almost been clarified. Although it was Doflamingo who killed him, it was Vergo who was on a mission on Mignon Island at that time who exposed Rosinante's identity and captured him.
He was also the one who leaked the naval combat plan at that time, causing Vice Admiral Tsuru to fail.
It can be said that if it weren't for Vergo, Vice Admiral Tsuru might have been able to arrest Doflamingo at that time. Even if he escaped, at least he could have saved Rosinante.
According to Zhan Guo's thoughts, he wanted to chop Vergo into pieces with his own hands, and then twist off Doflamingo's head.
Unfortunately, Zhan Guo's position did not allow him to act willfully. Facing the man in pink, he lowered his head and flipped through the documents while reluctantly saying, "Virgo has been brought out of the Deep Sea Prison and will be at headquarters soon."
"The Deep Sea Prison?" Doflamingo frowned. "Why would he be in that place?"
Without even looking up, Sengoku looked at Doflamingo through the top of his eyes: "Hmm? Is there anything wrong with criminals being sent to prison?"
"You guy... you did this on purpose, it's damaging to the name of 'Buddha', right?" Doflamingo finally put down his crossed legs. He was a little angry. Logically speaking, if the navy discovered an undercover agent, they should keep him in the headquarters for interrogation. Why would they send him to a big prison on purpose?
"Even Buddha wouldn't like the garbage in the ocean." Zhan Guo did it on purpose. He had long guessed that it was unlikely that Vergo would be executed, so he simply threw him into the big prison for a walk around.
Boiling water baptism, sword tree forest and needle grass, scorching hell blood pool sea of fire, extreme cold hell ultra-low temperature...
Even if he can't be killed, he will be skinned alive first. Zhan Guo also has a temper. Even if there are orders from the Five Elders, he can still do some tricks within his authority.
As long as the person is not dead and all body parts are intact, no one can say anything.
Veins bulged on Doflamingo's forehead, the armrest of the chair was crushed by him, and he snorted coldly and left Zhan Guo's office.
"You have to pay for the damage."
Sengoku's voice came from behind him, and Doflamingo slammed the door shut.
However, after the door was closed, the pen in Zhan Guo's hand had been broken by him, and Doflamingo's anger gradually subsided.
The Navy won the round by successfully catching the undercover agent, but lost completely by releasing him under pressure. Even the Warring States could only gain a small verbal advantage.
The price Doflamingo paid was just to agree to some conditions of the Five Elders, which involved his future business. In addition, the name Vergo could no longer be used, which was barely to save the face of the navy.
Changing his name was not a big deal for Virgo. After returning to his family, he would become the leader of the Heart Army and could re-activate his code name - Corazon.
Virgo is the first generation of Corazon.
…
The warship entered the port and the Amber docked with it.
After returning to the Marine Headquarters, the trainees took the pirates to a temporary prison and then disbanded on the spot. Those who needed to recuperate recuperated, and those who needed to rest rested. This internship had been fighting against two powerful pirate groups in a row, even if they were just the remnants, it was already exciting enough for them.
Zhang Daye and the others naturally followed Zefa to meet Zhan Guo, and they hurried back just for this.
After crossing the spacious training ground and entering the main door of the headquarters building, the sudden dimming of light required everyone's eyes to adjust a little, but despite this, everyone still noticed two figures walking out.
One was over three meters tall, wearing a pink feather coat and cropped pants; the other was slightly shorter, his face mostly hidden by the hood of his robe.
Zefa recognized the identities of these two people and frowned. In the end, did he let this guy go?
Both sides stopped tacitly and looked at each other carefully.
This was the first time Zhang Daye saw Doflamingo in person, and he felt... he deserved a beating.
Doflamingo was also observing the Amber Tour Group. He had heard of their reputation more than once, and had suffered losses directly or indirectly because of them, so he was deeply impressed.
But he didn't expect that the first time he saw these thorns in his eyes would be at the Naval Headquarters.
"Hey, isn't this Brigadier General Vergo?" Zhang Da was the first to break the silence, saying with a grin, "I heard you were about to be promoted. Sure enough, you've been promoted to a member of the Shichibukai? Congratulations!"
I've received a lot of care from you before, so I said a lot of good things about you in front of Marshal Zhan Guo. You are here today thanks to me, remember to treat me to a meal."
"It's you!?" Doflamingo and Vergo said at the same time. Mingge stared at Zhang Daye, why is it him again?
"Yeah, it's me." Zhang Da also wanted to imitate Duolong's expression when he betrayed Wei Xiaobao, but he was worried about affecting his image, so he just crossed his arms normally.
Judging from the reactions of these two people, Zhan Guo probably didn't sell himself out. This person can get along with him. In fact, it doesn't matter if they know. Anyway, they have already offended each other to death, so this little .
Buzz~ Invisible waves spread out with Doflamingo as the center, and everyone present could feel a sudden pressure on their bodies.
Altria immediately released her aura to fight against him, but Tom was faster than her. Before anyone could react, Tom bounced off Zhang Tatsuya's shoulder and hit Doflamingo in the face with a claw.
This was not the first time Tom had encountered the domineering color. In his memory, a person with red hair, a person with a rudder on his head, and a child holding a water pipe could all release something that made cats uncomfortable.
Every time this happened, Tom felt very uncomfortable and the hair on his body couldn't help but want to stand up, so he made up his mind that if someone used this trick against him again, he would fight back.
So, as soon as Tom felt the domineering color, he subconsciously took action.
Bang! The glasses fell to the ground, the lenses shattered, and three bloody marks appeared on Doflamingo's right eye.
"Hmph... hmph..." Doflamingo laughed angrily, obviously taking Tom's behavior as a provocation from Zhang Tatsuya.
"Lower the rogue lines!" Five almost invisible thin lines fell from above as Doflamingo swung his arms, piercing Zhang Tatsuya's head.
It is reasonable for Tom to take action and Zhang Da to take the blame.
But by this time Zefa had reacted. He waved his arm and bounced the five thin lines away. The thin lines fell on the corner of the wall, leaving deep grooves on the thick stone wall.
Doflamingo's fingers remained poised to strike at any moment: "Zefar, don't meddle in other people's business!"
"Don't be so self-righteous, this is the Marine Headquarters." Zephyr stared at him, "Pirates!"
Not only Zephyr, but everyone else in the Amber Tour Group was ready for battle - except for Tom who was frightened by Doflamingo's moves and hid behind Zhang Tatsuya and trembled. This cat's handsomeness really only lasted for three seconds.
As the victim of the attack, Zhang Da also remained very calm. Although Doflamingo's movements were fast, they were still within his reaction range. In order to guard against the parasitic line that could control others, he kept his Observation Haki on.
At this tense moment, Zhang Da suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Doflamingo, I advise you not to be impulsive."
"Oh?" Doflamingo was drawn to him and immediately found Zhang Tatsuya's flaws. "What will you do if you act impulsively? Kill me? Like Moriah and Crocodile?"
"Hey~ You can grab gold from the sky, but you can't say anything carelessly." Crocodile was fine, he would never admit to anything about Moria. Zhang Da also said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm trying to persuade you because I promised Vice Admiral Gion when I captured Diamante and Buffalo. I must persuade you not to be impulsive when I meet you. Now I've persuaded you, you can continue." (See Chapter 161 for details)
Zefa was furious. What do you mean by "you can just grab the gold from the sky"? And while I don't know exactly what Gion said to you, that's definitely not what you meant, right? Are you trying to calm people down, or are you provoking them?
Of course it was a provocation. Zhang Da even raised his eyebrows like Tom.
When Tom saw his master being so arrogant, he immediately stuck his head out and stuck out his tongue at him.
Doflamingo sneered, "Thank you so much for your hard work. Last time and this time, I went there myself to get them away."
Doflamingo was not afraid of talking too much. He mocked Zhang Daye, saying, "What's the use of capturing my people? You can just make a random trip and take them back."
"Really? Thanks to them, I earned nearly 100 million in bounties. You've worked so hard, traveling so far each time. I hope these two times haven't delayed your work." Zhang Da ignored him. He wanted to use the release of Diamanti and Buffalo to piss me off? I've already got the bounty, and I'm still afraid of you getting angry? I'm not a marine.
However, the real navy was right next to them, and Zephyr was accidentally injured, so our navy spent so much energy and money in vain. In the end, neither of you lost out, right? Are you two teaming up to trick this stupid kid?
"You're such a sharp-tongued person! I hope you can still be this relaxed when you go to the New World." Doflamingo put his hands in his pockets and continued walking out with Vergo, adding, "A lackey's lackey, fufufufu..."
"Heh~" To be honest, Zhang Da also felt a little angry. He laughed and said to Doflamingo's back, "Want to fight ? You are a piece of trash from the sea, a scum who killed your own father and brother, an abandoned noble of the world, a stray dog who can't return to Mary Geoise?"
Zhang Tatsuya, who was only a little angry, turned his aggressiveness to the maximum, and every word he said was like a stab in Doflamingo's heart.
Doflamingo turned suddenly, his calm expression looking particularly ferocious against the backdrop of blood. He spoke word by word:
"Do you want to die?"
