Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 759 The truth 10 years ago (2)

Just when King Liku's army was pulling cartloads of money back to the palace, King Liku, who was riding a horse with a bow and arrow on his back, rushed out of the palace and came to the nearest town there.Seeing his arrival, the citizens immediately surrounded him with smiles, expressing that no matter what happened, they would trust King Riku.

·
But King Riku, who was full of tears, shouted for them to flee. At the same time, he picked up a sharp long sword. All the nearby citizens fell to the ground.After cutting down the citizens blocking the way, King Riku directly took out the rocket and shot it out, and the explosives warehouse and residential buildings were instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames.The citizens had no idea why the king, who had always loved the people, went mad, so they could only run away screaming.

·
The images of King Liku killing the citizens and burning down the residential buildings were transmitted to every corner of Dressrosa without reservation, and the citizens who were still in the safe area watched with wide eyes in disbelief. Tragic picture.

·
The bright red flames burned the night, and under the red flames were scenes of citizens fleeing screaming.The town that was harmonious and peaceful just a few minutes ago suddenly fell into a sea of ​​flames.Moreover, King Liku who was riding a horse was still slashing and killing those citizens, and this cruel scene was seen by the citizens, who were at a loss and became frightened. The purse that was intended to be donated also fell down.

·
The soldiers also looked at King Riku's atrocities in disbelief, not knowing why the respected King Riku suddenly went mad.

·
No one knew that at this time above the palace, the man in the pink bird fur coat smiled and looked at the town below immersed in the sea of ​​flames, and moved the fingers of his right hand as if he was manipulating a puppet.Countless thin threads invisible to the naked eye fell from the sky, parasitic on the stunned soldiers.

·
In the next second, the soldiers scattered in various parts of the country suddenly found their bodies moving uncontrollably, attacking those unarmed citizens mercilessly with weapons in hand, and even set fire to those residents building.

·
For a moment, Dressrosa was like a hell on earth, with screams, wailing, and calls for help, filling my ears, and the sound of soldiers crying while cutting people was also mixed in.The citizens who didn't know what they did wrong could only run away helplessly, trying to escape from the soldiers with weapons. More and more people fell down, and the tears that the citizens shed became more and more many……

·
Gradually, the doubts and despair at the beginning began to deteriorate, turning into hatred and resentment towards King Riku.They did nothing wrong, and the king's sudden and unreasonable demand to hand over all the property, they all obeyed, just because they believed that the good King Riku would not deceive them.

·
However, these beliefs and the trust of 800 years have been reduced to ashes under those flames and sharp blades. When the lives of relatives are lost in front of their eyes, when the soldiers' sharp swords are cutting down on themselves, the only thing they can do is It can only be resentment!

·
The panic in the country became more and more intense, and almost the whole country fell into despair. The fire illuminated the night, but the darkness sneaked into the hearts of the citizens.

·
The people in the palace were also shocked by King Liku's sudden atrocities. In order to appease the current situation, they contacted the navy, and the navy named Virgo said they would take over all of this.

·
Monet, who was a maid in the palace at the beginning, opened the gate of the palace, ushered in the cadres of the young Don Quixote family at that time, and took Princess Viola as a hostage.

·
The domestic panic intensified. Dressrosa, which was still peaceful and harmonious during the day, was like a shura field on earth at this moment. The blood of the citizens stained the ground, and the collapsed houses were silent in the flames. According to King Riku The property handed over by the order was piled up in the flames, but the corpses of the fallen citizens were also piled up in the mountains.

·
Hotter than fire is blood, deeper than grief is despair.

·
Resentment began to breed in the dark.The desperate citizens hugged the dead bodies of their relatives, and their original trust in the king had completely turned into hatred, leaving only hatred, and nothing but hatred.

·
When Riku's army found the surviving citizens, when another slaughter was about to start, the hero appeared.Pika, Torrebol and Diamanti quickly killed those Riku princes, while Doflamingo standing on a tower appeared as a savior, when the citizens were desperate appeared and said he was Don Quixote Doflamingo, the savior of the country.

·
The citizens knew that they were pirates. Although they didn't know what happened, those pirates helped them defeat King Riku's army and saved them.

·
The citizens didn't see Doflamingo move his hand with his back to them, and then King Riku, who was riding a horse, rushed towards him with a sword.Seeing the appearance of King Riku, the citizens subconsciously felt fear, but right in front of them, the pirate named Doflamingo defeated the evil king.

·
The citizens of the whole country watched in shock as the pirate lifted up the fainted King Riku. At this moment, after experiencing that moment of purgatory on earth, all they had left was not to worry about the king who didn't know how to live or die, but to Hatred, and the shouts of Doflamingo who rescued them from their misery.

·
In an instant, the purgatory Dressrosa finally ushered in the end, but they didn't know that the degeneration was just beginning now, they only knew that they cheered the pirate's name loudly, and supported him to board Dressrosa. Sa's throne, but also respect him from the bottom of his heart to follow him.

"This country fell into the hands of Doflamingo overnight." The toy soldier whispered everything that happened 10 years ago, and why the citizens resent the Riku royal family now.

·
After listening to the story, Usopp couldn't help but said angrily, "It's really too much, this is a nightmare!"

·
Gang Qiao, the patriarch of the Dontata tribe standing on Robin's hand, also said with self-reproach, "We also mistakenly thought that King Riku was crazy, and contacted the new king Doflamingo, and ended up in such a situation. We are ashamed that we were not able to persist in trusting King Riku..."

·
After hearing this story, Usopp also sighed and said, "Indeed, what a pity that the king who was so deeply trusted by the people died of an unjust crime..."

·
"No! King Liku is still alive!" said the toy Leibing, "Duoflamingo was very fond of Princess Viola's abilities, so she made a condition that as long as he didn't kill King Liku, she would Submit to him. She is now Doflamingo's subordinate, changed her name to Violet, and became the cadre of the family!"

·
"Officer?" Usopp looked at him in surprise, "King Riku is still alive because of the princess?"

·
The toy soldier nodded, and said with a heavy heart, "Yes, he must be living somewhere in this country! But the pain the king has suffered in these 10 years is unimaginable! Princess Viola must also be full of fear, anger and anger." Tears! It's hard to imagine how they spent these 10 years! However, it is also very painful to control the soldiers who helplessly hurt the citizens just like King Riku..."

·
Hearing this, Usopp was taken aback, and asked, "Didn't all King Riku's soldiers be killed that day?"

·
The toy soldier said helplessly, "Some were killed, and some surrendered to Doflamingo on the spot and became his guards."

·
"Are you actually betrayed??" Franky immediately became angry.

·
"I believe that is their helpless choice..."

·
Frankie was instantly moved to tears, "That would make people cry, those people are really... so tragic!! You are so pitiful!!"

·
The toy soldier just looked at him, and then said in a deep voice, "The soldiers who were killed and the soldiers who surrendered are still not enough to support a country's army."

·
Upon hearing this, Frankie regained his composure and asked, "What's going on?"

·
"I've lost part of my memory." Immediately, the toy soldier looked at Frankie sitting there, "Flander, did you see this city just now? Although we are made into toys, we remember things when we were humans. , but the people around us, even our family members, will forget our existence. We can’t even feel that we have forgotten anything, this is the biggest tragedy of Dressrosa! Our toys will also be forgotten!"

·
After sorting out her thoughts, Robin said, "In other words, there may be my former partners among the toys on the street, but you don't remember them anymore?"

·
"Yes!" The toy soldier nodded vigorously, and continued to say in a deep voice, "Besides, after becoming a toy, everyone is full of hatred for Doflamingo! Although Doflamingo secretly buried all the rebellions , but in fact this country is full of rebellion! These many tragedies! This is the key to this battle!"

·
Frankie wiped away his tears, and said, "So that's it, this is what you said about the odds! If we want to fight the pirates of the Seven Wuhai Sea, we are the only ones who can't do it. If all the toys in the whole country rebel, the power will be great." Already!"

·
"Wait a minute!" Sensing that the topic was not right, Usopp quickly grabbed a perverted robot and yelled, "Why have you become a member of the Doflamingo crusade?? Our goal is to destroy Factory! As long as the goal is achieved, you can stay away from this country! Right?! Robin?!!"

·
The historian with no expression suddenly said, "I will never forgive Doflamingo!"

·
"well?????",
·
At this time, Leo jumped onto the table, raised the golden needle and shouted loudly to his companions, "Today is the day of the decisive battle! What happened this morning is the enemy's provocation! And the appearance of Usoland is by no means Coincidentally!! God told us to fight!!"

·
"Oh!!!"

·
Usopp, who was confused, looked at the toy soldier beside him and asked, "What about this morning?"

·
"It's about Doflamingo temporarily giving up the throne." Without seeing Usopp's weird face, the toy soldier suppressed his anger and said, "Do you know how happy we were when we heard the news? We even thought it was It was a miracle, but it turned out to be a false report. At that time, we seemed to be knocked down from heaven to hell! When we are in despair, shouldn’t it be taken for granted that today is the day of the decisive battle?!!”

·
Seeing the flaming toy soldiers, Robin, Usopp, and Franky, who are the culprits, can't tell the truth. After all, if they know that Doflamingo did it to deceive the Straw Hat Pirates If so many things happen, they will definitely be wiped out by the little fighters.

At the underground garbage dump, at some point, only King Riku and the leader Qingjiao were left, and neither of them noticed anything wrong, they were just chatting there.

·
King Liku looked at the leader, Qingjiao, and said with emotion, "You have thrown the ship and set sail even though you are living in seclusion."

·
"The Eight Treasures Navy has no successors. It would be nice to have a grandson..." Qingjiao, the leader with a flying beard, said, as if his two previous grandsons, Lao Cai and Abu, never existed.

·
"Really? It's not easy to be a villain..." King Riku said, and then he wondered, 'Is it an illusion or something?I always feel that there is a big piece of memory empty, and I seem to have the same feeling 10 years ago...'
