One Piece: Under the Throne

After resolving the riot in the Colosseum, everyone sat together again to review what had happened.

"So, Gloria, you don't know what happened, but you were suddenly infected by the evil spirit?"

Leo looked at the maid with suspicion. This confused girl still hasn't explained what caused her to become possessed.

"Sou Da, every audience member was cheering for me at that time. Listening to the cheers, I felt like I had endless energy in my body. The more I fought, the more excited I became."

Hearing this, Leo turned to look at Victoria. The little princess pushed up her large glasses and said seriously, "Her body is very healthy, and no source of demonic energy has been detected. I guess the so-called demonic energy is related to mental power."

It's getting more and more mysterious. Should I take Gloria to ask Auntie for confirmation?

For a moment, Leo was also in trouble.

Gloria looked at everyone and laughed out loud: "Ahahaha, since being possessed by a demon won't do any harm to my body and can also enhance my strength, isn't this a good thing? Leo, I've decided, I want to master this power."

Everyone was infected by her optimistic attitude, and their worries were alleviated.

Especially Leo, thinking about the fact that Zoro seemed to have mastered the so-called ghost energy in the original work, it is possible that Gloria may also master this power.

"Now that you have decided, just do it. I believe you will succeed."

As companions, everyone in the team will support each other unconditionally. Although Gloria is an optimistic girl, she is very strong-willed at heart. Since the magic energy can help her break the bottleneck, Gloria will master it at the risk of her life.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished talking, Granny New suddenly asked, "Little girl, I see that the fighting skills you use are very similar to those of the Nine Snakes. Who taught you that?"

"Yes, Captain. Mother-in-law, do you also know the war dance of the Sphinx Huntress?" Gloria pointed at Leo and said.

"Sphinx? What's that?"

"It's a martial art from my hometown. My mother told me that it was a summary of hunting techniques by our ancestors. Moreover, the Sphinx War Dance is passed down to girls, not boys. Even though my mother wanted to break the tradition, I still couldn't learn it. Fortunately, this set of martial arts is very suitable for Gloria, so I taught it to her."

After listening to Leo's explanation, Granny New looked at him even more strangely. What a coincidence! The fighting skills of the Nine Snakes also evolved from hunting skills, so Granny New believed that the ancestors of the Sphinx were the tribesmen who left the Nine Snake Island.

"Perhaps your ancestors are really of the same origin as the Nine Snakes. The Nine Snake Island has a tradition of going out to find powerful bloodlines to reproduce since ancient times. Every few hundred years, there will always be tribesmen who go out and never come back."

Leo shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter what the truth is. Maybe your people gave birth to boys, so they are embarrassed to come back."

Granny New: ...

Three days later, Leo and his crew will set sail again. When they leave, Hancock leads the Nine Snakes Pirates to see Leo off.

"Thank you for everything you have done for me. I reluctantly admit that you are my friends."

Her Majesty the Empress was still as arrogant as ever, but at this moment she no longer had that cold and distant look.

Victoria helped the three sisters of the empress to remove the slave marks. Without the shackles that bound them, their state of mind changed greatly.

"Haha, let's go. As long as we are still sailing on the sea, we will meet again."

……

Gloria sat cross-legged in the practice room.

She tried her best to empty herself and tried hard to feel the evil energy in her consciousness. A whole morning passed like this, and she still had no intention of stopping.

Until Childs came to call her for lunch.

First, I called through the door a few times: "Gloria is here for lunch."

……

No one in the quiet room answered.

Perhaps the previous possession had left a shadow on Charles, and at this moment he cautiously stuck out half of his head.

"Sister Gloria, maid, come and have lunch. Today we have your favorite grilled sea king."

“Hoo…Hoo…Hoo…”

Childs: ...

The battle at the dining table was still fierce, with Leo, Will and Gloria each occupying an area.

Especially the maid was very strong today: "I have my eyes on that piece of meat, Will, don't snatch it. Leo, if you dare to touch my grilled fish, be careful or I will add salt to your afternoon tea."

Leo was helpless. The rules at the table were based on one's own ability. What were you doing threatening everyone today?

Seeing this, Charles had no choice but to smile bitterly and bring more food to Gloria.

"I don't know why, but I have a particularly good appetite today."

Putting down the octopus ink stew noodles, Charles said with disdain, "Oh! How can it be bad? You slept so well in the morning."

"You can't blame me, Leo. There must be something wrong with your meditation method. I followed your instructions to focus my mind and try to feel my consciousness, but it didn't work at all."

Leo puffed his cheeks and tried hard to swallow the food in his mouth: "How is it possible? Didn't you hear any strange whispers?"

"No, but the sound of the waves is clearer."

Hearing this, Leo fell silent. He suddenly ran to the bathroom and walked four steps backwards...

After a while, Leo returned to the table, "Gloria, I have thought of a way to help you practice. I will take you to find the Seven Star Sword in a while. Charles, have another serving of seafood fried rice. I feel like I can eat more after my stomach is refreshed."

Everyone:...

Ah Fu picked up the coffee and took a sip elegantly: "Captain, where are we going next? Should we go back to Sihai or continue sailing in Paradise?"

Leo was chewing the food in his mouth while thinking, since he could bring the Empress into the alliance, he might as well continue to contact the Seven Warlords of the Sea. They were all ambitious guys, and Leo believed he could convince them as long as he catered to their interests.

Hawkeye's whereabouts are unknown, he has no friends with Moria, Crocodile is having a lot of fun playing the hero game, and after looking around, it seems that only Turkey is the most suitable.

"Let's go to Dressrosa. We can visit the Dwarf Tribe on the way."

Everyone's eyes lit up when Dressrosa was mentioned. From the day of the coup until today, Leo and his friends had been to Dressrosa three times. Every time they went, they could feel that the country had changed a lot.

There is a passionate arena culture, beautiful flowers and moving songs, hot girls and delicious food, as well as hospitable forest fairies. Dressrosa simply meets everyone's needs.

Gloria shouted excitedly: "Leo, isn't that place called Love and Passion and..."

"Yes, it's called the country of love, passion and dog food."

Bang! Gloria slapped Leo on the head with a paper fan: "Foolish Captain, this is the country of love, passion and toys."

……

The Poseidon flew over the red soil mountains, crossed numerous storms, and finally arrived in this welcoming country a few days later.

Leo still chose to land in Greenbit, but they were discovered by the dwarfs as soon as they arrived on the island.

Upon hearing that his friends were coming, Leo came to greet them happily, but when he saw everyone, he was so shocked that his jaw dropped.

"Li...Liorando, and everyone, where are the chestnuts on your heads?"

Everyone:...

Oh no, I forgot to change my clothes. Everyone exchanged glances and Leo simply stopped pretending.

"Oh Leo my brother, what's the matter with you? Are you too happy to see us? What do you mean, there are no chestnuts? Of course there are no chestnuts, because they are ripe."

"Ah! So that's how it is. I was really scared. Leolando, you are still so good at creating surprises!"

After saying that, he jumped onto Leo's shoulder, and the two of them entered the forest, talking and laughing.

Everyone...

The Lilliput Kingdom of Greenbit was still as lively as ever. Everyone was surrounded by a group of Lilliputians. Leo, who was sitting in the middle, was talking excitedly as he talked about their recent adventure story.

The content of the story focused on the fantasy island [Mobile Park]. Leo seemed to be deliberately exaggerating their base. After the speech, the dwarfs' eyes were full of stars, and their thoughts had already drifted to an altitude of 5000 meters over the West Sea.

After finishing the story, Leo left everyone in Greenbit and took only the Prime Minister and Will to the capital of Dressrosa.

At this time in the Royal Palace of King's Highlands, Doflamingo was sitting alone in front of the window drinking red wine.

This is a habit he has developed over a long period of time. After dealing with family affairs every day, Dover always likes to have a drink here.

With a slight force of fingers, the gem-clear liquid swirls in the cup. There is a special sense of satisfaction in looking at one's own country through the glass.

Looking through the red wine hanging on the wall of the glass, half of the country was dyed red.

"Fffffffff, what a vibrant country this is."

Suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Dover's thoughts, and Trebol walked in with a long snot: "Young Master, there is news from the Cube Army that the Water Angel has arrived in Dressrosa."

"What? What are they doing here? Have your men keep a close eye on them."

Dover felt his blood boiling, and his good mood just now was swept away. Just hearing Leo's name made veins on Dover's forehead exposed.

Over the years, the Don Quixote family has been successful in their fight from the North Sea to the New World. However, Leo's shadow was always present in the few failures they could remember, which made Dover very wary of them.

"Wait, let the family cadres protect the sugar. Torrebol, you go there yourself. Don't let Leo find out about the underground factory."

At that moment, Dover had thought about using the power of the Childlike Fruit to completely get rid of Leo.

But Kolio gave him a very weird feeling, so Dover didn't dare to gamble.

"Damn Water Angel, I'll let you go this time, provided you don't ruin my plan..."

At this moment, Dover was no longer in the mood to taste wine. Pieces of information about the Water Angel were passed to him. What surprised Dover was that the Water Angel seemed to have only brought one subordinate, and was heading straight for the King's Highlands.

"Sure enough, he came to find me, but what on earth does he want to do?" For a period of time afterwards, Dover kept guessing about the Water Angel's intentions. His personality of liking to control everything made him very annoyed when facing the variables of the Water Angel.

Leo and his two companions had a smooth journey. Even when they came face to face with the guards, they acted as if they couldn't see them. It was not until they met someone in front of the palace gate who actually greeted them.

She was wearing a cool outfit that covered her plump figure, her light green hair hung down naturally, and the ends of her hair were slightly curled. Seeing the water angel coming over, Monet bowed politely.

"Master Leo, the young master has been waiting for a long time. Please allow me to lead the way for you."

The corner of Leo's mouth curled up. He had to say that Dover had a really good eye for women. How many men could resist a woman like Monet?

After a while, they arrived at the door of the living room. Leo suddenly smiled evilly and shouted before Monet opened the door: "Hi!"

! Dover, my brother, I come to see you! "

Monet:……

Doflamingo:
