Chapter 637
Doflamingo sat on the chair, eyes closed, as if he were taking a nap.
"No, your task now is to protect yourselves. As for Luffy of the Straw Hat Pirates, let Fujitora deal with him."
"Yes, family head."
After ending the long-distance sound transmission, Doflamingo looked at Jora and Trebol in front of him.
"You two returned just in time!"
Although Doflamingo’s tone was understated, Trebol could still hear a hint of displeasure in it.
Trebol scratched the back of his head awkwardly: "Sorry, family head! I didn't protect Sugar well, but I didn't expect that Usopp, who had been beaten until he couldn't move, would be able to scare Sugar into fainting!"
After hearing Trebol’s defense, Gladius couldn't help but mock him.
"And you are someone appointed by the family head as one of the four generals, yet you can't even handle such a small matter."
"Gladius, don't be rude to Trebol!"
Doflamingo opened his eyes and glared at Gladius, signaling him not to talk nonsense.
"Sorry, family head, it was my dereliction of duty."
Gladius hurriedly lowered his head to admit his mistake, indicating that he knew he was wrong.
Doflamingo waved his hand and said: "Trebol is capable of doing a good job protecting Sugar, it was just carelessness this time! I just hope you can be more cautious next time."
"Yes, the family head is right."
Trebol said respectfully; this matter was indeed his responsibility.
At this time, Jora also admitted her mistake to Doflamingo: "Family head, I'm really sorry about the martial arts tournament."
Jora was also very helpless.
Who would have thought that Lord Sabo, the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, would participate in the final competition instead of Luffy.
The battle plan targeting Luffy had already been arranged properly, but unexpectedly, Lord Sabo appeared halfway and ruined the original plan!
This led to the ancient secret manual "Flame Burning Heaven Technique" that they had worked so hard to obtain being easily snatched away by Lord Sabo.
This was a huge humiliation for Jora.
"Hmm, I was too careless about this matter too." Doflamingo nodded.
Doflamingo looked at Trebol and Jora and said: "But now is not the time to blame you. No matter how I punish you, what has happened will not change. The most important thing now is to take down the Straw Hat Pirates."
Doflamingo said to the two of them.
"Yes, family head!" The two nodded in response.
Their admiration for Doflamingo grew even more.
Who wouldn't like a family head with such a broad mind?
"Hmm." Doflamingo nodded with satisfaction.
At this moment, a very sharp and piercing sound came.
"I say Mingo, whether it's the Imperial Guard or those wandering martial artists of the Straw Hat Pirates, as long as I take action, I can drive them all out of Dressrosa City. You don't need to go to such great lengths at all!"
Doflamingo’s subordinates were all attracted by this sharp voice.
The one who made this sound was Pica, who was over five meters tall.
His sturdy body, yet his voice was so sharp.
This contrast was simply unbearable.
"It's hard to hold back laughter no matter how many times you hear this voice!"
"Don't laugh out loud, if the generals hear it, it will be bad!"
A group of soldiers around Pica covered their mouths, trying their best not to laugh out loud.
Doflamingo also narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on Pica.
"Pica, didn't I tell you to rest well in the room?" Doflamingo said.
"Sigh, family head, aren't you torturing me?" Pica said with a bitter smile: "Now that the enemy is at the gate, if I can't do something for you, wouldn't I be failing your great love."
Pica patted his sturdy chest, his face full of pride.
"Fine!"
Doflamingo nodded: "But it's not time for you to take action yet. Let them fight more fiercely. We'll sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait for the right time to take action!"
Doflamingo knew Pica’s personality very well.
Pica, this big guy, had a fiery temper and a reckless personality.
Doflamingo didn't dare to let Pica take risks. What if he was defeated by someone accidentally?
Although Pica was very strong, it was never wrong to be careful.
"Fine!"
Hearing Doflamingo’s order, Pica could only obediently do as Doflamingo said.
"Also, this time, we can let the commoners of Dressrosa City see whether I, Doflamingo, am suitable to be the king of Dressrosa City, or King Riku!"
A cold smile appeared on Doflamingo’s face.
"Since you've said so, family head, I'll just have to follow your instructions."
Pica shrugged, indicating he didn't care.
Finally, a soldier who had just joined Doflamingo couldn't bear Pica’s voice anymore.
He laughed out loud directly.
The people around looked at this soldier who laughed out loud as if they were looking at a dead man.
The soldier instantly felt a cold chill sweeping over him.
"Who are you? How dare you mock me!"
Pica turned his head and looked at the soldier angrily.
"I..."
The soldier opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
It was his companions around him who explained for him: "General Pica, please spare him. This guy is a new soldier who just joined us. He has old parents and young children, please let him go."
"Hmph."
Pica snorted coldly.
"This kid just mocked me. If I let him go like this, wouldn't it be too easy for him? I want to grind him into meat paste with rocks!"
Saying that, Pica was about to use his internal energy to control rocks to kill this soldier who dared to mock him.
"General Pica, wait! Let me do it!" Baby 5 stood out at this moment and stopped Pica’s action.
Pica frowned and looked at Baby 5, then nodded.
"Kid, don't blame me, blame your own bad luck for provoking me!"
A cruel smile flashed on Pica’s face.
Baby 5 shot a series of hidden weapons at the soldier, causing him to lose his life completely.
"Take his body to his family, and give them some compensation."
Doflamingo waved his hand, as if instructing a few soldiers.
"Yes."
The soldiers nodded and took the body of the soldier who had been riddled with holes away from here.
Doflamingo pointed to one of the soldiers in the team and asked: "Do you have family?"
"Reporting to family head! Yes!"
"And you, do you have any?" Doflamingo asked another person.
"I... I have too!"
This person was clearly a bit excited, not knowing why the family head suddenly asked him such a question; could it be that he wanted to help him?
"When I was eight, my mother passed away, and when I was ten, I killed my own father with my own hands.
The people who can become generals here are all family who have shared joys and sorrows with me. Whoever dares to mock them in the future will definitely have a worse ending than that guy just now!" Doflamingo said seriously.
After hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment, then shouted in unison: "Subordinates will remember the family head's teachings!"
"Alright! Everyone get up!"
[Doflamingo seems a bit perverted, killing his own father with his own hands at the age of ten?]
[I'm sure there must be other reasons for this. Doflamingo is very good to his family; his father must have done something to offend Doflamingo!]
[I think so too. Although Doflamingo is extremely evil, he is truly good to his family and subordinates and has never treated them badly!]
