Chapter 1311: The Crazy Plan

After the Big Mom Pirates' near-island-encircling offensive continued for six hours, they still hadn't broken through the giant rock area. After six hours of high-intensity slaughter, both sides were inevitably exhausted, both mentally and physically. Therefore, the Big Mom Pirates chose to retreat from the giant rock area and return to their ships.

Behind the giant rock area, various debris was piled under the rocks to make it easier for the Donquixote Family members to rush onto the giant rocks. This was the advantage of the defenders; they didn't need to suffer many casualties to climb onto the giant rocks, while those climbing from the outside had to face lead bullets and blades slashing down from above.

Several pirates sat in a circle, their gazes slightly dull, mechanically chewing food in their mouths.

"Should we... run?"

A Donquixote Family member spoke, his breathing rapid, a glimmer of spirit appearing in his dull eyes.

The bodies of the nearby pirates trembled as they vigilantly observed their surroundings.

"If this continues, we'll die here sooner or later. I didn't join the Donquixote Family to be cannon fodder. I, for one, wanted to become..."

This pirate's nerves were clearly abnormal, and he was about to reach a breaking point.

"But..."

Another pirate had just started to speak when a look of terror appeared in his eyes.

Bang!

The sound of a gunshot rang across the coast. The pirate who suggested running had his mouth slightly open, and a bloody hole appeared on his forehead.

With a thud, the pirate who suggested running fell down.

"My life belongs to the Young Master. Whoever runs, dies."

A pirate with a face full of scars tucked his short gun back into his waistband, chewing on shelf-stable dry rations.

"Of... of course, our lives were all given by the Young Master. This guy deserved to die. He, he actually wanted to run. Ha, haha."

A pirate trembling all over spoke in agreement. The scarred pirate glanced at him and then ignored him.

"Right, we must never betray the Young Master."

"We will definitely hold out until the end."

Pirate after pirate stood up to pledge their loyalty; no one dared to mention running again. Heaven knows who among them were Doflamingo's die-hard loyalists.

"They're coming again!!"

A roar came from afar. The scarred pirate threw down the dry rations in his hand, grabbed a blood-stained knife, and rushed onto the giant rocks.

Inside the fourth floor of the villa, Su Xiao's brows were tightly locked. Although the war continuing was good news for him, judging from the current situation, if Katakuri invaded Dressrosa, his main mission would fail. Not only that, given the grudge between Su Xiao and Katakuri, Katakuri would definitely lead his fleet to hunt Su Xiao down across the world, endlessly.

After pondering for a moment, Su Xiao got up and left the room. Ten minutes later, Su Xiao found Doflamingo at the edge of the giant rock area.

"We... can't hold out for much longer."

Doflamingo was laughing. Since he set foot in the New World, he hadn't had a direct conflict with any of the Four Emperors, and this conflict with the Big Mom Pirates was actually a test for him.

As long as he survived this ordeal, he would be the hegemon of the seas around Dressrosa, and no pirates would dare to invade easily again.

"Jack retreated in a hurry."

Su Xiao also knew that Dressrosa couldn't be held for long. Jack seemed to have found a random excuse to leave in a rage, but both Su Xiao and Doflamingo saw that something was wrong.

No matter what, the Beast Pirates and the Donquixote Family were allies. If he suddenly retreated now, and Doflamingo temporarily defected to Red-Haired or Whitebeard, Kaido and Big Mom could only stare helplessly.

Although artificial Devil Fruits had many flaws, pirates worshipped power. Even dreamers like Whitebeard and Red-Haired wouldn't refuse artificial Devil Fruits; it was just that their methods of use would be relatively gentler.

But Kaido just had people retreat, which made no sense in terms of reason or emotion.

"I've investigated the situation over there through underground channels. Both Charlotte Linlin and Kaido's territories have been attacked. The identities of the attackers are currently unknown; they don't look like people from the World Government or the Revolutionary Army."

Doflamingo could be so calm because he knew that Big Mom and Kaido's territories weren't peaceful either.

The Donquixote Family's situation was difficult, but the Big Mom Pirates weren't doing much better. They had to send troops to Dressrosa while also protecting their own territories; the pressure was imaginable.

In fact, it was no longer about who would crush whom first, but who would fail to hold out first.

"If we..."

Su Xiao's voice grew lower and lower, and Doflamingo's mouth gradually opened slightly.

"Are you... crazy?"

After hearing the plan Su Xiao described, Doflamingo was also slightly stunned.

"I don't want to fight Katakuri to the death anymore. Without the severely injured Cracker to stall him, this guy will be even harder to deal with. The reason he hasn't made a move is that he's guarding against Jack still being on the island. As soon as Jack appears in Kaido's territory, Katakuri will make his move immediately."

"This..."

Doflamingo was hesitating, hesitating whether to cooperate with Su Xiao's crazy plan.

"If everything goes smoothly, we can set off tonight."

Su Xiao turned and walked toward the King's Plateau.

"Fufufufufu, you'd better be quick."

"Leave it to fate."

Su Xiao walked away with his back to Doflamingo, waving his hand.

After returning to the fourth floor of the villa, Su Xiao locked the door tightly, forbidding any Donquixote Family members from entering.

The pirates on the coast were locked in an inseparable battle, the civilians on Dressrosa Island were trembling, and Su Xiao was unusually at ease. However, this ease wouldn't last long.

At 7:00 PM that night, the pirates on the coastline stopped fighting. The Donquixote Family members guarded the inside of the giant rocks, while the Big Mom Pirates guarded the outside. It could be said that the Big Mom Pirates had already landed on Dressrosa.

Around 8:00 PM, after dozens of small-scale engagements between the two sides, the war gradually subsided. Of course, this was only a ceasefire for tonight. Tomorrow morning, the war between the two factions would continue. At this rate, the Donquixote Family would be wiped out sooner or later. There were simply too many people in the Big Mom Pirates; once the terrain advantage was lost, the war would end in a short time.

Around 10:00 PM, King's Plateau, inside the villa's living room.

The living room was pitch black, with three people, one dog, and one cow sitting on the sofa.

"Yo, Young Master, is there really no problem?"

A slightly honest voice came from the darkness.

"You, you might die. Do you still dare to go?"

Doflamingo's voice was low.

"Of course I dare!"

Although the honest voice had a tremor, the answer was very firm.

"Then let's begin. By tomorrow morning, if Charlotte Linlin doesn't make a statement, Dressrosa will definitely fall."

Su Xiao's voice came from the darkness.

"That's right, in the end, it depends on how she chooses. Whether she'll risk falling from the position of a Four Emperor to wipe us out, or..."

This time it was Doflamingo. His sunglasses reflected a faint light in the darkness. The room fell into dead silence. Two figures stood up and walked out of the room.

A moment later, the sound of propellers turning came from outside the villa. In the darkness, Su Xiao took out a communicator. This matter was to be done by Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang; he himself couldn't leave Dressrosa, lest Katakuri make a move.

There was no need to worry about Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's safety at all; at critical moments, it could completely escape into the sea. Su Xiao had hung five trackers and one emergency escape device on it, plus Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's "You Can't See Me" ability, it could dive into the sea with an oxygen tank, and even the Four Emperors couldn't do anything to it. ===== CHAPTER 1312 =====
