Chapter 175: Doflamingo's Mechanical Puppet

~8 min read 1,435 words

"Doflamingo!"

The Den Den Mushi mimicking Sengoku had anger nearly spraying from its eyes as it roared, "Do you understand what you are doing?"

With Hawk Eyes and Garp joining forces, there was a very high chance of trapping the Revolutionary Army.

Never did he expect Doflamingo to suddenly intervene.

"Of course I understand. I have never been more clear-headed than I am right now!"

When Doflamingo first landed on Death Island, he had the same mindset as most of the Navy.

He held the intention of wanting to ferret out the bottom line of the Game Merchant.

However,

when he completed the Contract Task and purchased Destiny Goods, some of his thoughts had already shifted.

Rumble.

The crisp sound of gears turning.

A behemoth cast from brass gears, hinges, and refined iron suddenly appeared before Doflamingo.

Mechanical Puppet: Green Scale Eagle.

A thin thread, barely visible to the naked eye, was wrapped around his fingertip; as Doflamingo's fingers danced, the Mechanical Puppet vibrated its cyan wings and charged toward Colonel Nezumi in the center of the Navy.

Countless Navy soldiers were sent flying by the heavy wings of the Mechanical Puppet, falling into a respawn state.

Colonel Nezumi collapsed to the ground in fear.

Holding the snatched Den Den Mushi, Doflamingo stroked the cold, grim scales of the Green-Scaled Eagle and said, "Mr. Sengoku, this is a Mechanical Puppet I purchased for twenty thousand Reward Points."

Sengoku said with a cold expression, "Doflamingo, are you showing off your military force to the Navy? I believe this is a very foolish approach."

The Donquixote Family, entrenched in the New World, controlled countless underground black markets and possessed dense transaction chains; they were a terrifying, massive force that made all ordinary Pirates shrink back.

Yet, they were not taken seriously by the Navy at all; if Doflamingo dared to oppose the Navy, his base of operations in Dressrosa would be conquered by the Navy in less than half a month.

Doflamingo was not just a simple Pirate crew; why did he suddenly have the guts to oppose the Navy?

Could it be that he didn't even want the Dressrosa he had spent so much effort managing?

The more he thought about it, the tighter Sengoku's brow furrowed.

"With an Admiral from Marine Headquarters present, how would I dare to show off my military force to Mr. Sengoku?"

Doflamingo's eyes revealed a thick sense of mockery as he burst into loud laughter, saying, "Have you still not realized it?"

"Fuffuffuffuffu..."

"Twenty thousand Reward Points, that is two billion Beli!"

"The internal technology, energy operation, and the combat power that this Mechanical Puppet sold to me by the Game Merchant can display are far superior to the Pacifistas you keep researching!"

As the Emperor of the New World's underground forces, Doflamingo's intelligence network spread across the Si Hai, including spies within the Navy.

He was very clear about the funds the World Government and the Navy had spent on developing the Pacifistas.

An astronomical figure.

Sengoku frowned deeply and said, "What exactly are you trying to say!"

Even if the Game Merchant possessed some mechanical technology that surpassed the Science Unit, so what? Was it worth Doflamingo abandoning his own base to confront the Navy?

"Fuffuffuffuffu..."

Doflamingo let out a demonic laugh, nakedly mocking the highest-ranking general of Marine Headquarters.

"As expected, those who have not personally experienced the power of the Samsara Game, even the wise general Mr. Sengoku, cannot fathom the terrifying future contained within it."

After all,

Vegapunk of the Brain-Brain Fruit, possessing the highest level of wisdom and technological means, still had to submit to the World Government.

Even if the Game Merchant himself had the strength of an Admiral or one of the Four Emperors, plus some special technological means, he would just be a troublesome Fifth Sea Emperor Pirate.

The World Government already ruled the Si Hai; whether it was the scale of their massive forces or their high-end combat power, they were not an existence that any upstart ambitious person, Pirate, or the Revolutionary Army could shake.

This was the thought of most people in the Pirate World,

and it was also the conclusion reached by Sengoku, as Fleet Admiral, after meticulous analysis and comparison of military force.

The World Government was as stable as the Red Line.

"The Game Merchant is simply not an existence the World Government can oppose. No... that gentleman likely never had the thought of opposing ants from the very beginning."

Doflamingo recalled the other Destiny Goods he had seen inside the Game House.

Products from another world—this was just the most basic model of the entire mecha series, yet it already possessed power surpassing the legendary Pluton, capable of easily destroying islands.

He had paid to browse a God-level Mechanical Puppet.

It was no longer called a mechanical creation, but a mechanical god that truly possessed a soul, possessed consciousness, and could directly destroy a world.

To be able to place such a world-destroying Mechanical Puppet inside the Game House for sale.

What kind of existence was the Game Merchant?

"This ocean is like a giant ship sailing toward Lafute Lu; those who have not received the baptism of the game, no matter how strong they once were, will be abandoned by the giant ship and buried in the sea—not even Fleet Admiral Sengoku is an exception."

Doflamingo turned his head to look at Hawk Eyes and asked, "You should have felt the power of the game too, right? To actually obey the Navy's orders—it really has opened my eyes."

"Just bored."

Hawk Eyes' gaze fell upon the Mechanical Puppet, the Green-Scaled Eagle, which was emitting a powerful aura.

He did not care in the slightest whether he could capture the Revolutionary Army.

Fighting against strong opponents and fighting against masters of Jiangdian was his pursuit; it was only because he hadn't met a Sword Master who had become a Game Player that he was bored enough to settle for second best and strike at Dragon, who could suppress Garp.

Now, Doflamingo also had the qualifications to be his opponent.

A Mechanical Puppet worth twenty thousand Reward Points, with a selling price even exceeding his own 【Green Glow Sword Art】—just how much power it could unleash was truly worth looking forward to!

Just at this moment,

within this Ghost City located in the center of Death Island, a strange change suddenly occurred.

In a certain corner, the red-clothed wraith inside a Ghost Mansion was hunted, as if the seal underground had been completely undone.

The entire island began to boil.

Gray-black Yin Qi, like hot water evaporating, spread rapidly, causing the entire island to be shrouded in mist.

【Game Prompt: After the death of the Pollution Monster, the concentration of residual Yin Qi has reached the unsealing standard; a Lord-level Boss is about to descend!】

Bang, bang.

On Death Island, the Ghost City on the first layer began to vibrate rhythmically.

Countless buildings collapsed, and the earth began to crack.

From within the torn Abyss, a scarlet light radiated, and a heart as huge as a city slowly beat with a rhythm.

Each beat absorbed the Yin Qi within the Ghost City, gradually condensing into substance.

"Hahahahahaha, the Lord is something in the pocket of Lord Buggy Saint!"

A glint of discovering treasure flashed in Buggy's eyes as he quickly led the Pirates under his command, rushing toward the very center of the Ghost City.

"Mihawk, now is not the time for fighting; you wouldn't want to miss the rewards of a Lord-level Monster, would you?"

Doflamingo looked at the battle-ready Mihawk, turned around directly, jumped onto the back of the Mechanical Puppet Green-Scaled Eagle, and flew toward the center of the Ghost City.

"Goa Knights, advance!"

"Old man, you cannot stop me on your own; as the Leader of the Revolutionary Army, I will take the head of the Lord Monster and declare to the world the end of the old era!"

"Borsalino will arrive in the East Blue soon; Garp, you must secure the first kill of the Lord-level Monster; you absolutely cannot let the Pirates and the Revolutionary Army succeed!"

Sengoku's tone was serious.

Countless Den Den Mushi were broadcasting live, and the reporters' reports were continuously being sent to the Si Hai and the Grand Line.

This situation was like a public confrontation between the Navy, the Pirates, and the Revolutionary Army; it was the best time to demonstrate the Navy's military might, and they absolutely could not be outdone by the Pirates and the Revolutionary Army!
