Chapter 488 The Four Emperors are not so easy to defeat!
Usopp stared blankly at Law, wondering if he should contact Doflamingo.
What exactly is this guy trying to do?
Why contact such a dangerous person?
Why did you call such a dangerous guy?
"Because this is also part of the plan," Luo said calmly.
"As part of the plan?"
Usopp said, somewhat frantically, "How come I didn't know?!"
It's one thing to decide to attack the Four Emperors, but now they've provoked a Shichibukai too?
"Because he never mentioned this plan before, you naturally wouldn't know," west Yan said.
Law never told them about the follow-up plans from the beginning, so it's normal that Usopp didn't know.
"Looks like this is going to be another troublesome matter," Nami said with a headache.
"Well, what can we do? We've formed an alliance with this guy," Sanji shrugged.
Since we've formed an alliance, let's just accept it.
Then, Sanji leaned close to Law and said, "But Law, I have a piece of advice for you: Luffy's idea of an alliance is not quite the same as yours, so you'd better be careful."
Luo:
This is the second Straw Hat Pirates member to say something like that to him.
For a moment, Luo also felt a sense of regret.
But... things have come to this point, and there's no going back.
"Hey, you guys!"
Caesar glared angrily at the group and said, "Don't think you can get away with this!"
"Fools, just enjoy the realization of your own stupidity, and then be brutally killed by those big shots..."
'
"bump!"
Without giving Caesar a chance to continue arguing, Sanji kicked Caesar in the face, knocking his nose crooked again after it had just been fixed.
"It hurts...it hurts so much..."
'
"Hey, Sanji!"
Chopper glared at Sanji and said, "I'm still treating him, why did you kick him?"
After saying that, Chopper paused for a moment, then continued, "At least wait until I'm healed before you kick."
Sanji:
Caesar: !!!
Sanji looked at Chopper in surprise. What do you mean by kicking after healed?
Caesar looked at Chopper and Sanji with horrified eyes. These guys really are devils!
"joker..."
Help me!
Seeing Caesar's tears, west Yan shook his head, then turned his gaze to Luo and said, "Continue."
"Um."
"The great pirates in the New World basically all have their own territory somewhere on the sea," Law said. "They have countless subordinates, making them seem like a huge criminal organization ruling the ocean, completely different in scale from the pirate crews we've encountered before!"
"Are the Four Emperors like this too?" Melly asked curiously.
"Yes," Luo said seriously, "and they are among the most powerful of them!"
"If we challenge them with the strength of a single pirate crew, we might not even get to see their captain. So, to deal with them, we must unite."
"That's why you've allied with the Straw Hat Pirates, isn't it?" Brook said.
"Um"
Xin Kou Luo nodded honestly; this was indeed one of his objectives.
"Then what does this have to do with Doflamingo?" Perona asked, puzzled.
Why do we have to provoke that Shichibukai named Doflamingo?
"That relates to what I'm about to say."
After speaking, Luo paused for a moment, and then continued, "In order to avoid being targeted by the Navy, these important figures at sea prefer to operate behind the scenes."
"Therefore, when conducting certain transactions, a reliable intermediary is needed to complete the transaction."
"And the most trusted middleman among them is none other than the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Doflamingo!"
"He's known as...the Joker!"
Hearing Law's words, Nico Robin frowned subconsciously.
That's true, but what's the point of attacking a middleman?
Will this help them defeat Kaido?
However, out of politeness, Nico Robin did not interrupt Law, but instead decided to see what he was going to say next.
"I know you're wondering why I absolutely have to deal with Doflamingo," Law said. "But I can tell you with absolute certainty that this is something that must be done!"
Why?
Frankie voiced the question that had been on everyone's mind.
"Because Kaido is Doflamingo's biggest trading partner!" Law said, "and that's our target this time!"
"Kaido..."
Nami pondered for a moment, then said, "Are you planning to temporarily deprive Kaido of his ability to trade with the outside world?"
"It's not that simple," Law said. "What I need to do is weaken the Beasts Pirates' fighting strength!"
"Reduce combat strength?"
A look of doubt appeared in Nami's eyes. Would their fighting strength be reduced if they didn't trade with the outside world?
Could it be that... Wano Country needs to trade with the outside world in order to survive?
But that doesn't make sense either. Isn't that country supposed to be closed off from the world? How can such a country be self-sufficient?
How did they survive?
"There must be something wrong with the items in the trade," Sanji guessed.
"Black Leg is right," Law said. "There is definitely something wrong with what Doflamingo and Kaido traded."
"What is it?"
"It's SMILE!" Law said seriously. "That is, an artificial Devil Fruit!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately showed expressions of surprise. Devil Fruits could be artificially created?
"Are you kidding me?" Usopp looked at Law in disbelief. "Devil Fruits can be artificially manufactured?"
"If that's the case, wouldn't the Beasts Pirates be able to endlessly increase their number of Devil Fruit users?"
This is so unreasonable!
"That's right," Law said. "Otherwise, why do you think I said the Four Emperors are difficult to deal with?"
That's not just because they are strong in combat, but also because the members of their pirate crew are very strong!
Nami:
That's true, but hearing this news still sends chills down my spine.
Devil Fruit Army?
How strong must their combat power be?
"But you don't need to worry too much," Law said. "Because artificial Devil Fruits seem to come with risks."
"So the Beasts Pirates don't have as many Devil Fruit users as you think."
"How much is that?" Usopp asked instinctively.
"About... five hundred or so."
Usopp:
More than five hundred?!
Their pirate crew had fewer than ten Devil Fruit users, while the Beasts Pirates had five hundred.
What a joke, you bastard!
"Don't get so excited, Usopp," west Yan said. "Having many Devil Fruit users doesn't necessarily mean they're stronger."
Ultimately, it all comes down to how strong someone is; ability is just an added bonus.
Seeing that west Yan had said that, Usopp gradually calmed down.
Yes, their pirate crew is not weak either, so there's nothing to be afraid of.
Well, being afraid is useless anyway.
Thinking of this, Usopp glanced at the few powerful guys on the ship and then sighed silently.
Their eyes are filled with excitement...
"Don't worry, starting today, their number of Devil Fruit users will not increase," Law said.
"Why?" Nami asked, puzzled.
"Sunglasses is the boss," Luo said, glancing at west Yan. "Remember that S.A.D. manufacturing facility I destroyed in Punk Hazard?"
"That room with lots of big jars?" west Yan said, stroking his chin.
At the time, he thought that thing was used by Caesar to make weapons, but it turned out to be used to make artificial Devil Fruits?
"That's right." Law nodded and said, "That's the place where the raw materials for making artificial Devil Fruits are produced."
"After losing that, Doflamingo was no longer able to create artificial Devil Fruits."
"But what if Doflamingo had someone who made that thing?" Sanji stopped mid-sentence, then turned to look at Caesar and said, "I know, Caesar is the one who made that thing, right!"
Now he understood why Luo was so certain; after all that, the person was already here with them!
"That's right, that's why I had you capture him," Luo nodded and said.
With Caesar as a crucial bargaining chip, even if Doflamingo is furious, he has no choice but to obey!
Otherwise... destruction awaits him!
"Roar~"
"That's quite surprising." Sanji looked at Caesar, whose face had turned slightly red from being praised, and said, "I never imagined he was the one who made the raw materials for artificial Devil Fruits."
Does this scumbag even have such abilities?
"That's amazing!"
Chopper looked at Caesar in astonishment and said, "You actually managed to research and develop the raw materials for creating artificial Devil Fruits?"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"
"That's right, exactly!" Caesar said with a smile.
He is such an incredibly brilliant scientist!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~
"I didn't expect this guy to be so amazing."
west Yan looked at Caesar with some surprise. He had previously thought that Caesar was just an evil scientist who liked to research weapons, but it turned out that he had such abilities.
What a surprise.
"It's not as amazing as you think." Luo glanced calmly at Caesar and said, "He just used the lineage factor theory discovered by Vegapunk."
Upon hearing this, the people still surrounding Caesar immediately showed expressions of disdain.
"What? So Vegapunk is the really powerful one."
"Tch, how boring."
"This guy really isn't any good."
Caesar: ? ? ?
Seeing the people walking away into the distance, Caesar immediately flew into a rage.
"Shut up, you idiots!" Caesar roared. "Could you morons even do that?"
"you...
'
"bump!"
"bump!"
"bump!"
Without giving this guy a chance to continue rambling, Chopper and the others immediately rushed over and gave him a good beating, which made Caesar behave.
"You have no right to call us idiots," Sanji said, annoyed.
Honestly, they still haven't grasped the situation... They're really courting death!
After glancing at Caesar, Franky said, "So, after capturing this guy, Kaido of the Beasts can no longer add more Devil Fruit users, right?"
"Yes."
Luo nodded and said, "However, there must still be a SMILE manufacturing plant inside Dressrosa, so that needs to be destroyed as well."
"Only in this way can the deal between Doflamingo and Kaido be completely severed."
That means... Doflamingo is definitely doomed!
"So, we need to go to war with Doflamingo?" west Yan asked.
Although he didn't care much about Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, it wasn't a wise thing to start a war with a pirate crew.
Therefore, he needs to figure out the whole picture.
"It's not certain that a fight will break out."
Law said, "If that guy obediently listens to me and resigns from his position as a Shichibukai, then we'll have a chance to sneak in and destroy the factory!"
"Resigning from the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"
A look of surprise appeared in west Yan's eyes. What kind of plan was this?
Is Doflamingo willing to resign from his position as a Shichibukai?
"That's right, I'm resigning from the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"
Luo said earnestly, "This is my condition for returning Caesar!"
"Doflamingo definitely doesn't want to offend Kaido, so he will inevitably resign from his position as a Shichibukai in exchange for Caesar."
Hearing Luo's words, Caesar's eyes showed emotion.
"joker..."
I never imagined he was so important to the Joker... He's so lucky!
Upon hearing Caesar's voice, Xi Yan glanced at him and then said, "Looks like I'll have to let this guy sleep for a while first."
Otherwise, their plan would likely be leaked.
Thinking of this, west Yan used a teleportation technique to appear next to Caesar and attacked before the latter could react.
"bump!"
With a single blow, Caesar was knocked unconscious!
After finishing this task, west Yan clapped his hands and said, "Alright, let's continue."
Luo:
How could this guy just start a fight like that?
Also, isn't this speed a bit too fast?
He felt that his dynamic vision couldn't keep up with the other person's speed!
"It seems that to capture the other party, I'll have to use Observation Haki or a Devil Fruit ability," Law murmured to himself.
Thinking of this, a look of seriousness appeared in Luo's eyes.
"Go on with your plan," Zoro said.
"Um."
Luo, regaining his senses, nodded and continued, "Just like I said, the purpose of my call was to get Doflamingo to resign from the Seven Warlords of the Sea."
"Once that guy resigns from the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he'll become an enemy of the Navy!"
"That way, the Navy Headquarters will send an admiral to surround and annihilate him, and then he won't have time to cause us any trouble."
"Then...we can infiltrate Dressrosa and destroy the factory!"
Once the factory there is completely destroyed, Doflamingo will lose all leverage in his deal with Kaido!
At that point... even if he didn't intervene, Doflamingo wouldn't be able to survive the combined attack of the Marines and Kaido!
And this was his battle plan!
If the battle plan proceeds smoothly, he can rely on Kaido and the Navy's strength to defeat Doflamingo!
In this way... his wish was fulfilled!
