Chapter 602

Blood was flowing from King Riku's arm.

His head was buzzing as if it were about to explode, and his vision began to blur.

He shook his head: "No! It's not like this! This is not the result I wanted! This city is completely finished!"

Doflamingo, watching everything before him, revealed a wicked arc at the corner of his mouth.

"Soon, you won't belong to this city anymore!" Doflamingo whispered: "This is more interesting!"

Dressrosa was now in complete chaos, with fighting everywhere in the city and blood spilling everywhere.

"Master! Should we make our move now? If we appear as heroes, we will definitely gain huge popularity!" Trebol suggested beside Doflamingo.

"No rush! When these people are truly desperate, that's when we'll make our move; the effect will naturally be the best!"

Doflamingo sat leisurely on his chair, watching the fighting and chaos, his mood very pleasant!

"King Riku! Why on earth are you doing this? You said you wanted money, and we took out all our money for you!"

At this moment, a white-bearded old man stood beside King Riku.

This old man's eyes were bloodshot, and his body was hunched as if he would fall to the ground in the next second!

This old man was none other than Wu Bing, the chief physician of Dressrosa.

Therefore, he held an extraordinary status in Dressrosa!

At this moment, he was holding the corpse of a little girl who had just been killed by King Riku.

This little girl was in the prime of her youth, but she died at the hands of King Riku!

King Riku kicked Wu Bing over, and the blade in his hand fell without hesitation, cutting into Wu Bing's neck!

Wu Bing covered his neck, his eyes wide with disbelief! He never imagined that King Riku would dare to lay a hand on him!

"King Riku, Wu Bing saved your life before! You beast, you are not fit to be the city lord! You should be hacked into a thousand pieces! You deserve to die!"

"Get out of our Dressrosa, you hypocrites! You are not fit to stay in Dressrosa!"

For a time, the entire Dressrosa was in a boil, with countless people accusing, cursing, and spitting on King Riku!

King Riku was on the verge of a breakdown.

Nothing could be more painful for him than being forced to kill his own people with his own hands!

But what could King Riku do? He couldn't control his own body!

Just at this moment, Doflamingo led many of his subordinates to appear before King Riku and the others.

"Stop them, don't let these people continue the slaughter!" Doflamingo shouted.

"Yes, sir!"

In an instant, King Riku's forces suffered heavy losses, almost being wiped out!

Doflamingo sneered as he looked at King Riku: "King Riku, it seems your men aren't very useful!"

King Riku raised his head to look at Doflamingo, his eyes bloodshot!

He looked at Doflamingo, his eyes filled with hatred!

"How are the people? Do you see the reality clearly now? King Riku is just a mad dog." Doflamingo arrogantly mocked King Riku!

"You're courting death!" King Riku finally lost control.

Even though Doflamingo had released his control, he gripped the sword in his hand, preparing to pierce Doflamingo's heart!

Doflamingo suddenly disappeared, then reappeared behind King Riku, grabbing his right hand that held the weapon!

"Hehe, you beast, you actually dared to try and kill your own people? You are truly heartless, you are not even as good as a beast!"

Doflamingo sneered and threw a heavy punch, hitting King Riku in the abdomen, sending him flying and crashing through a wall.

The people, seeing someone come out to save them, cheered one after another.

"Great! Great! We are safe now!"

"Finally someone came out to stop King Riku and the others, Heaven is watching after all!"

"Which hero is this?"

"Hero! Hero!"

The people shouted excitedly.

"Dear fellow villagers, I am one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea newly appointed by the imperial court. This time, I specifically rushed to Dressrosa to save you from fire and water. I ask all fellow villagers to pick up your weapons and defend Dressrosa with me." Doflamingo said loudly.

As Doflamingo revealed his identity, many people began to talk to each other.

"Seven Warlords? Aren't those people from the martial arts world? I heard they are all villains with dozens of lives on their hands! How could they come to save us?"

"Who knows, anyway, they must be good people! At least they are much better than that cruel and violent King Riku!"

"That's true! Let's go follow these heroes!"

At this moment, King Riku crawled out of the ruins, spat out a mouthful of blood, and stared viciously at Doflamingo.

"Doflamingo, don't get cocky! I'll slaughter you sooner or later!" King Riku roared.

Slap! A rotten egg was thrown toward King Riku.

"King Riku, you are just a mad dog! Someone like you doesn't deserve to live in this world!"

"That's right! Your family is just a bunch of vampires! We don't need a family like you to exist!"

More and more people surrounded him, all filled with righteous indignation and cursing King Riku.

【What a tragic king this is.】

【Even when facing a schemer like Doflamingo, he still shoulders the heavy burden of protecting his country and people.】

【He cannot bear to hurt his own people, and is even willing to endure the pain and sin he brought upon himself for their sake.】

【Doflamingo is truly deserving of death; for his own desires, he actually schemed against people like this, tortured them, and forced them into a dead end!】

King Riku saw his own people hating him so much, and he completely broke down.

He had committed a monstrous crime!

The entire family would fall to the bottom, never to regain their former glory!

But what could King Riku do?

He could only blame this Doflamingo for being despicable and shameless, secretly using an ancient secret technique to control his body.

"Everyone! From today on, I, Doflamingo, am the city lord of your Dressrosa! Don't worry, I will definitely lead you to prosperity and flourishing, and you will never have to live in fear again!"

"Long live the City Lord!"

"Long live the City Lord!"

For a time, the people raised their weapons and shouted!

Franky, Robin, and Usopp, upon hearing the past of Dressrosa, all showed expressions of shock.

"This Doflamingo is simply a bastard!" Usopp cursed angrily.

"That's right! This matter must not be easily forgiven by Doflamingo!" Franky also said angrily.

Only Robin remained silent; she seemed to be thinking about something.

"Then is this King Riku still alive now?" Robin asked.

"King Riku is not dead; he should be waiting for a chance for revenge in some corner of Dressrosa now!" the one-legged puppet soldier said.

"The Straw Hat Pirates have taken this matter on; we will definitely help you drive Doflamingo away." Robin said earnestly.

"Thank you all!" the one-legged puppet soldier said sincerely; this kindness was enough.

"There is one more thing: after being turned into a puppet, the memories related to this person completely disappear from the minds of others!"

"If you guys encounter that little girl from the Doflamingo family, you must run away! Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious!" the one-legged puppet soldier warned.

"Don't worry, we know."

Franky nodded and said.

In the venue of the Corrida Colosseum.

Bartolomeo finally found Luffy.

"Lu... Luffy-senpai?" Bartolomeo looked at Luffy in surprise, unable to even speak fluently.

"It's you, Rooster Head." Luffy nodded slightly.

"Luffy-senpai gave me a nickname; it seems my status in Luffy-senpai's heart is quite high!" Bartolomeo was overjoyed.

"Haha, your hairstyle is indeed suitable for being called Rooster Head." Luffy teased.

"Zoro-senpai is looking for you at the entrance, saying there is a very important message to tell you!" Bartolomeo said.

"I got it! Thank you, Rooster Head!" Luffy said and ran toward the entrance.

Bartolomeo fell to the ground in excitement.

Muttering to himself: "Ah! Luffy-senpai said thank you to me; today is the most honorable day of my life!"

Luffy ran while shouting Zoro's name.
