Chapter 329

It wasn't until a furious Nami stormed out of the room and gave the two of them a thorough beating that this quarrel came to a hasty end.

Sanji had prepared breakfast,

staring at Lord Sima with eager eyes—though there was nothing wrong, it seemed as if he had asked about everything.

Blowing up memories or something like that......

It couldn't be real, could it?

"Alright, stop looking at me with those eyes of a jaded wife." Lord Sima said with amusement: "Do you really think I'd do something like that? Plant a spiritual-force bomb inside my own crewmate's head?"

Sanji said nothing.

As for screwing people over,

Lord Sima either wouldn't do it, or if he did......

Then it really would be an utterly devious move!

Lord Sima: "Fine, I did indeed plant a spiritual-force bomb......"

"Fine, I did indeed plant a spiritual-force bomb." Lord Sima shrugged: "But it wasn't aimed at you—it was aimed at intruders...... If Pudding really did try to manipulate your memories, her spiritual force would inevitably be injured by the blast."

Sanji's expression changed!

Yet he didn't say much more.

Lord Sima had also said...

It was only because Pudding was going to manipulate his memories that the spiritual-force bomb would activate.

So......

As long as Pudding had no second thoughts, there would be no problem.

But......

Could it really be that there were none?

Sanji knew perfectly well in his heart.

Otherwise......

Did they really think there existed a gentleman who could sit through such temptation without losing his composure?

He had long anticipated Lord Sima's anticipation; not wanting to hurt Pudding, he could only resolutely choose to leave.

"Looks like you knew too. I thought your lustful heart had really been blinded by lard." Zoro teased.

This time Sanji didn't retort against Zoro.

However......

"Pah pah pah! You bastard! Why is there a dead snake in my wine?" Zoro sprayed all the wine out of his mouth in one go.

"Oh, that was a new product Di told me about—poisonous snake wine, fighting poison with poison!" Sanji said with amusement.

"Are you an idiot? You actually believed that?" Zoro raged.

"Hmm?" Lord Sima raised an eyebrow: "Are you doubting me?"

"......"

"Don't think that just because you curse me in your heart I can't hear it! Don't forget I have a telepathic link!" Lord Sima said angrily: "Snake wine is a tradition from our hometown!"

"Exactly, Seaweed-Head is clearly looking down on you, Di!" Sanji fanned the flames from the side.

However......

Lord Sima glanced at Sanji with an ambiguous half-smile, giving the latter a premonition that something bad was about to happen!

He was about to run, but......

【Time Stop!】

"I wish you peace!"

"I wish you happiness!"

Two beams of holy light,

the two men reached the pinnacle of flesh, letting out moans that could cause social death.

Making the pure Bai Xing blush bright red.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Katakuri and Perospero hadn't shown up during this period, and the other members of the BIG MOM crew were also so busy they barely touched the ground.

This was the alliance ceremony between the Straw Hat Pirates and the BIG MOM Pirates!

With a Germa 66 thrown in as well.

It could be said to be the most talked-about big news on the seas in recent times.

Of course......

Some were happy, some were worried,

The World Government was deeply troubled by this powerful alliance, yet had absolutely no way to deal with it.

Five-Star Elder said in a heavy voice: "We absolutely cannot let them ally smoothly! Send Stussy to the wedding venue and look for a chance to sabotage the wedding—best case, make them turn against each other on the spot!"

That said......

"Stussy is merely the queen of the Pleasure District; for an existence like BIG MOM, she still falls short in status, making it very hard to operate." Two-Star Elder frowned: "Stussy's undercover identity is very important; rashly exposing it like this would truly be unwise."

"Then are we just supposed to sit by and do nothing? Let BIG MOM grow stronger like this?" Five-Star Elder questioned.

Two-Star Elder fell silent.

After a long while,

Da Xing Lao sighed again.

"It's infuriating that our attack on Mary Geoise was too sudden—though the five of us managed to stop it, we each suffered injuries; otherwise, this would have been a perfect chance to eliminate the Blackbeard Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates!"

The other four could not help but grit their teeth.

"Has there been any lead on that audacious criminal yet?"

No one answered.

At that moment,

the white telephone worm on the conference table rang, causing all five elders to turn their gaze toward it.

The nearest elder picked up the call; the white telephone worm transformed into an unexpected figure—precisely...

"It's confirmed: Blackbeard is targeting the Logia of the Devil's Bane, and he will appear at this wedding!" The caller laughed maniacally: "I'll deliberately leak the information to cause chaos on-site—you must deploy extra forces and kill the Devil's Bane this time!"

The Fifth Elder's eyes flickered, but he did not respond to this topic.

Instead, he asked: "Have you obtained any intelligence regarding Blackbeard's possession of a second Devil Fruit ability?"

Doflamingo's scheme! The ambitious gather for a meeting!

Has Sima Di's "Grand Alliance" been exposed?

"Doflamingo!" the Fifth Elder said sharply: "Why did you flee Dressrosa—and why are you still in the form of a toy transformed by the Toy Toy Fruit? What are you hiding?"

Judging by this tone...

Doflamingo had apparently not revealed anything about Sima Di's Grand Alliance?

"Fff-f-f-f-f—That I cannot say," Doflamingo chuckled eerily. "It concerns my own life, Elder—don't press further. Focus on this wedding... If you kill the Devil's Bane, I'll trade this intelligence for a satisfactory reward."

Of course!

Given Doflamingo's nature—he'd never give away intelligence for free to the World Government.

Even if he hated Sima Di with every fiber of his being, he wouldn't make such a losing deal.

"Doflamingo! Are you really trying to bargain with us?" the Fifth Elder snapped. "If your intelligence is valuable enough, I can allow you to rejoin the Celestial Dragons. Isn't that what you've always wanted?"

The other side fell silent.

Long moments passed...

Doflamingo still sighed regretfully: "Everything... will wait until after the Devil's Bane is dead."

"Click—"

He hung up directly!

The Fifth Elder slammed down the telephone worm, his face dark, and turned to the other four.
