The guests were guided with utmost ceremony into glittering golden vehicles and transported straight to the only eight star hotel in the world, the Golden King Hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vast golden reception hall soon filled with laughter, mockery, and concealed hostility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yo, King of the Black Hand, you were invited too? You still breathing after all those ambushes?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, King of Loan Sharks, you bloated bastard actually crawled out of your money vault? I thought you had fused with your gold by now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The underworld giants clinked their glasses together with forced smiles, trading insults coated in fake politeness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, nearly twenty major kings of the underworld had already arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So many trash collectors of chaos in one place,\" a deep voice muttered quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large bird wearing a blue shirt, a yellow sand colored bow tie, and a black top hat blended into the crowd with practiced ease. His sharp eyes darted from group to group as he listened intently, memorizing every word before rapidly scribbling notes with a pen gripped in his wing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How fascinating, really fascinating,\" the birdman muttered excitedly. \"So many monsters gathered into one hall, yet no one seems to know why they were invited. This stinks of a massive scoop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Morgans, president of the World Economic News, known across the world as Big News Morgans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the man who had eaten the Bird Bird Fruit, Albatross Form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every legal newspaper in the world flowed from his hands, and the illegal underworld papers were also controlled by him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Morgans, you are here as well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sweet voice rang out behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgans turned and saw a noblewoman dressed in flawless white, a broad brimmed hat shadowing her face. She stood with elegance and poise, like royalty strolling through a garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, so it is you, Stussy,\" Morgans said with a grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stussy, one of the underworld emperors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman known among the kings as the Queen of the Pleasure District, ruler of the world's most powerful entertainment intelligence network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It has been a long time,\" Morgans added with a chuckle. \"You still look impossibly young and beautiful, as always.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh heh,\" Stussy laughed softly, clearly enjoying the compliment. \"You certainly know how to flatter, Morgans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgans leaned closer, lowering his voice. \"Do you know why the Golden Emperor suddenly invited everyone? This gathering is far too deliberate to be meaningless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stussy lightly tapped his beak with her finger and laughed. \"You really expect me to believe you know nothing? From what I hear, there is nothing your wings cannot reach.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgans hesitated, his eyes shifting. \"Conjectures exist, but news must be accurate. I dare not publish guesses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stussy covered her mouth and laughed. \"That is rich, coming from the King of Rumors himself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head slightly. \"A few days ago, there was quite a stir about the Fifth Emperor, Shirogai Yamikuro. A scandal filled report flooded the underworld. I wonder how much of it was truth, and how much was pure fabrication.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The author was anonymous,\" Morgans coughed. His eyes darted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew better than anyone that most of that article had been exaggerated or outright invented. Profit mattered more than truth in his world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are getting more and more daring,\" Stussy teased gently. \"Do you not fear that Shirogai Yamikuro might seek you out? He is a man even the World Government struggles to suppress. If he comes for you, where could you possibly hide?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It cannot be that bad,\" Morgans muttered awkwardly. \"At the time, I believed he would quickly be captured and thrown into Impel Down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You had better pray,\" Stussy said softly before turning her gaze toward the center of the hall. \"Strange, Tesoro invited us all, yet he himself has not appeared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgans nodded. \"Indeed strange. With his fondness for spectacle, he should have already made a grand entrance drowned in gold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the massive golden doors burst open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud announcement echoed through the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Joker has arrived!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The noisy hall fell nearly silent in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes turned toward the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joker was not a man who moved without purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fufufufufu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughter arrived before the man himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Donquixote Doflamingo swaggered inside, draped in a pink feathered coat, wearing cropped trousers and sharp pointed shoes. His red tinted sunglasses reflected the golden light like burning embers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him followed two executives of the Donquixote Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buffalo and Baby 5.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So everyone really is here,\" Doflamingo said slowly, scanning the kings who deliberately avoided his gaze. A sinister grin stretched across his face. \"What, you are not happy to see me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Umit, the King of Sea Transport, quickly laughed and stepped forward. \"Of course not, Joker. Your presence makes this gathering all the more lively.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\" Doflamingo chuckled as he casually dropped onto a sofa. \"Then I would very much like to know why Tesoro invited everyone, yet left me out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did the kings understand the reason behind his displeasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dazzling lights extinguished in an instant, plunging the hall into darkness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single yellow spotlight descended onto the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it is starting,\" Morgans muttered excitedly, rubbing his wings together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two figures slowly rose into the light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them was the master of this golden city, the Golden Emperor Tesoro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What shocked everyone was his appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not his usual flamboyant pink and gold attire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome,\" Tesoro said calmly, his voice steady as it echoed through the vast hall. \"To all kings of the underworld who have gathered here today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kings watched him in silence, unease spreading through the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tesoro's smile slowly faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will not waste your time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His next words struck like thunder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two paths now stand before you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Choose death, or choose submission.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_____\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Want to read the next chapter early?
