Six Paths of Pirates

Chapter 26 Prelude
New World, Dressrosa.

The streets are full of laughing people, greeting each other, making noise, talking and laughing loudly, without hearing a sigh or seeing a sad face.Here, even the most miserable and suffering people seem to be infected and let go of their troubles.

People who come here for the first time will also be surprised by the unique scenery here.

One is walking on the road, from time to time you can see bold men and women who show their love in public, and you will also see betrayals who turned against each other and were hunted down.

The second one is even more amazing, that is the unique toys of Dressrosa locals. These things that should be played by children can become labor, and even open their mouths to talk, which makes Dressrosa even more It is as wonderful as a fairy tale kingdom.

Today's Dressrosa, even for this country known for its love and passion, is extraordinarily lively and noisy.Because, in the bullfighting arena located in the center of the city, the final of the annual gladiator competition will start in the afternoon!
"Outside the number! Outside the number!"

"Dressrosa's proud top-level performance, the final of the Gladiator Tournament is about to begin!"

"At one o'clock in the afternoon, the king will lead the cadres to open the final of the seventh conference again!"

"Preview of the finals! Let you know about the 'aces' in the arena! Gaming and betting, your must-see!"

"Surprised! The reward for the final is actually it..."

……

Newsboys from various newspaper offices filled the street shouting, and the headlines became more and more exaggerated. I am afraid that even those who are not interested in gladiatorial competitions can't help but spend a few bucks to buy a newspaper to read it.

On the street, when eight expressionless people who didn't fit in with Dressrosa passed a newsboy, the red-haired man in the lead stopped and said to the newsboy who was doing business with someone: "Please give me a .How much?"

The newsboy was pocketing the money he had just received, when he heard someone buying newspapers again, he turned around and saw a pair of strange eyes with ripples.

The little newsboy in his teens was not afraid when he saw the pair of gray eyes, he just paused for a curious look, and then replied crisply: "Five Bailey, sir!"

Hearing the answer, the tall beauty behind the red-haired man came over, took out a five-pele note and handed it to the newsboy, then handed the newspaper to the red-haired man.

"Doflamingo will appear as scheduled." The red-haired man said when he saw the news that the king would unveil the final in accordance with the tradition printed in the newspaper.

"So, follow your plan." The woman stood behind the red-haired man, pushed her glasses and said, "The time is today...Mr. Nagato!"

These eight people are Nagato and the seven CP9!

At this time, it was already a month after meeting Luo, and it was also No. 20 days since I came to Dressrosa.In the past 20 days, apart from the planned deployment and everyone's preparations, Nagato was waiting for today's opportunity.

Nagato nodded, and the eight continued to walk forward: "Are the goals clear for each?"

Behind them, six people responded one by one.

Gabra: "Hmph, of course!"

Kaku said humbly: "It shouldn't be a problem to deal with a child."

Bruno: "Hmmm..."

Snuggle: "You can act at any time, Yi-yo!"

Owl: "If you agree, it should be very easy, right~"

Kalifa: "My part was reconfirmed three days ago."

Only Lu Qi didn't speak, but his longing eyes already showed his state.

The state of the seven is very different from 20 days ago, because after learning about Nagato's plan and their respective tasks, they saw some hope after they were just fighting with their backs.

This odds rekindled them!
"Then get ready."

After Nagato's words, six of the seven people behind him immediately left the team and scattered around, leaving only Bruno and Nagato walking together. Their direction was the place where the final of the competition was held - the bullfighting arena.

Arriving outside the bullfighting arena and showing their pre-booked tickets, Nagato and Bruno entered with the surging crowd and sat down.

The bullfighting arena in Dressrosa is very similar to the ancient Roman arena, with surrounding auditoriums surrounding the arena in the center.

But one of the biggest differences is that among the four stone-brick roads for gladiators to enter, there is a huge display screen above the road to the north, and there is a protruding platform on the screen, that is The place where the King of Dressrosa and his cadres will speak and watch the finale inauguration.

The seats for Nagato and Bruno were right below this platform.

After taking their seats, at the bottom left of the platform, almost opposite to Nagato, two people also sat down one after another.After Nagato and Bruno looked at each other, they remained silent.

Those two were Kaku and Gabriel.

Two groups of people came in and sat down one after another, like strangers who didn't know each other.Similarly, Lu Qi checked in and sat alone on the upper right side of the platform.

Only Snuggle, Owl and Kalifa did not come in, their missions were outside the arena.

Soon, only 15 minutes before [-]:[-] pm, the annual finals will start soon!
On the platform of the large screen in the north of the arena, a group of figures gradually appeared from the passage and walked out. Suddenly, the noisy arena was silent, but in the next second, there was an even bigger and huge sound that shook the sky!
"Oh—! King!"

"The lord has appeared, as well as the cadres of the family!"

"Usually, it's very rare to see Lord Diamanti in the arena. Only in this grand event every year, all the top cadres at the same level as Lord Diamanti will show up!"

"Not to mention, the 'Amayasha' who saved this country from the bastards of the Rick royal family, frightened the whole world with the terrifying appearance of the 'King Shichibukai', and protected this country from pirates. 'grown ups!"

"Long live Don Quixote——!!!"

……

The shouts of cheers and screams continued for a long time, until the man in the fiery red feather coat on the platform pressed his hands in vain, and then gradually stopped.

It is Doflamingo!
And, the cadres of the Don Quixote family lined up neatly behind him.

The people of Dressrosa were excited, but the king they supported was a little irritable at this time.

"Where's Violet?" Doflamingo turned his head and asked Torrepol behind him.

"Huh?" Torrebol was puzzled at first, and then replied, "Before coming, she said something, I said—she disappeared, but she said she would come back before the opening—I explain."

"Now is the opening time, is she back?" Torrebol's nonsense was aimed at annoying people, but Doflamingo, who knew what kind of guy he was, had already gotten used to it, so he reprimanded him, "Forget it." , leave her alone."

After speaking, Doflamingo stepped forward with all the cadres who were missing Violet, and began his opening speech.

"咈咈咈咈咈... my dear people..."

While Doflamingo was speaking, Nagato, who was sitting below, was using a phone bug to talk: "Luo, how is your situation?"

"By the time you mentioned, I have already brought reinforcements." The phone bug replied, "From 'Green Bit'!"

Nagato said: "Well, then continue to follow the plan and contact Nugget. At this time, he should already be with 'Violet'. Make sure they meet with Kalifa, our actions need to be synchronized."

"No need to remind." The phone bug said, "I'm familiar with your plan by heart, Nagato is in charge."

After confirming each other, the two hung up the phone.

At this time, Doflamingo had also finished his speech, and Diamanti was replaced as the host. This top cadre was introducing the gladiators who had been brutally eliminated and entered the final battle!

And on Nagato's lap, the newspaper that Wu Baili bought was spread out.Under the news of "Preview of the Finals! I will show you about the 'aces' in the arena! Gambling and betting, you must see!" In the news, among dozens of photos of the final gladiators, one of them died in the The God of Sky Island in the hands of Nagato - Enel!
