Chapter 9: Brother Ming: Friends, what is a bomb?(1/3)
"Of course, he is even less interesting than you."
Doflamingo had an evil smile on his lips, and even wearing sunglasses could not hide his sharp eyes.
He stared at Ren, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts: "This era is going to go crazy. It has been silent for five years. Can people like you not be able to stand it anymore?"
"Fire Fist" Ace, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' second division, was imprisoned by the Navy.
Many newspapers are ridiculing and provoking Whitebeard, and their words are fierce and vicious. There is obviously the instruction of the Navy and the World Government behind this... So what will happen next?
Although the news of the public execution has not yet been announced, anyone with a little bit of overall perspective knows that a shocking war is about to break out.
In this era of rapid changes, no careerist will be willing to be lonely.
He believed that was the case with Lane.
"hey-hey."
Ren smiled and showed a row of white teeth, "This is a big event that can change the world structure. All forces will pay attention to it, and I am naturally no exception."
He doesn't hide his ambition.
Times create heroes, and heroes push the times forward.
Why was "Blackbeard" Marshall D. Teach able to become the Yonko in just two years? You know, Kaido and Big Mom haven't been together for decades?
As for the red hair, although he has not been used for decades, he has face...
The five old stars all want to give him face.
Blackbeard has no face, he relies on taking advantage of the chaos.
He was the biggest winner in the war, and he successfully stole the fruits of victory. He devoured most of the Whitebeard Pirates' wealth, which became a stepping stone for his ambition.
Standing on the wind, pigs can reach the sky.
Now Mr. Lei specifically targeted Blackbeard, just to let the mantis catch the cicada, leaving the oriole behind.
Ren found a lounge chair and lay down, picked up the iced Coke on the table and took a sip:
"Joker, how do you think the Marines compare to Whitebeard?"
"The situation on the battlefield is unpredictable, there are too many variables, and it is possible for someone to win or lose."
Doflamingo said ambiguous words, and his eyes were covered by his sunglasses, making it difficult to see what he was really thinking.
Ren sneered: "You really don't know?"
"Okay, ten to one!"
Seeing that he couldn't get over it, Brother Ming sneered, "Whitebeard is really old, and it's no secret that he is seriously ill.
Either Garp or Sengoku is enough to stop him. The three generals of the Navy are basically unstoppable. Moreover, the Navy has the home field advantage, but Whitebeard has already lost the captain of the fourth team, Thatch, and the captain of the second team, Fire Fist Ace.
Arrested…
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa but not a lot but the right place and right time, the Whitebeard Pirates don't take advantage of anything, how can they win by just shouting?
Renn: "..."
He is indeed a sea gangster with a vicious eye.
That's the truth.
If Straw Hat Luffy hadn't led Jinbei and Laosha and other prisoners from Impel Down City in the process, the Whitebeard Pirates wouldn't have even been able to rush to the execution platform of "Fire Fist" Ace.
On the surface, Faker and I are evenly matched, but in practice...
"What if I go to help Whitebeard?" Ren asked with a smile.
"What?!"
Doflamingo's expression changed and he exclaimed, almost jumping out of the recliner.
This monster actually wants to intervene in the war. With his strength, it will inevitably lead to serious consequences, at least the navy will have to pay a greater price.
"It still doesn't work. At least Whitebeard has a better chance of rescuing Fire Fist.
Brother Ming quickly regained his composure, shook his head, looked at him and added meaningfully, "Besides, the world government will not let the navy lose..."
"Yeah, even if I go to help, it's hard to win."
After hearing his intriguing words, Ren sighed.
Who is the overlord of the sea? There is no doubt that it must be the navy, not to mention the world government behind the navy.
The World Government has ruled the world for 800 years, and it has been overthrown long ago without any terrible trump card.
Gol D. Roger is indeed the first Pirate King, and his achievements are unprecedented. But before Roger, there were as many sea overlords as Rocks in the past 800 years. Why didn't any of them overthrow the World Government?
Even if Ren is included, the Whitebeard Pirates can only lose a little better.
Don't forget, there is a Vice Admiral over there, the candidate "White Dragon". She is so powerful now.
After offsetting Ren and Artoria, the Whitebeard Pirates are still at a huge disadvantage.
Of course, war is not a simple process of addition and subtraction. Renn still has many cards in his hand that he has not yet played. He has a surprise gift package for the navy, which will not make their life too comfortable anyway.
At least Malinfando must be beaten to a pulp to give that "white dragon" Lieutenant General some color.
"Ren, let's talk about what's going on between us," Doflamingo said.
"Um."
PY trading has started.
Just two hours later, the two sides basically reached an agreement, as follows:
The Lionheart Pirates want to return Rao G, the captured combatants, and the transport ship to the Don Quixote family.
Of course, sweet fruits and other loot will not be returned.
In exchange, Doflamingo paid a one-time payment of 1 billion Baileys in cash to the Lionheart Pirates, plus a Devil Fruit and a pair of Sea Tower Stone handcuffs!
The sea-floor stone handcuffs were added lastly by Ren as he had an idea.
Specially used to inflict insults on people, hehehehe...
It is said that the Sea Tower Stone is as hard as diamond and cannot be broken by ordinary means, so it can not only be used to imprison those with Devil Fruit abilities, but also those without the ability can be imprisoned with Sea Tower Stone handcuffs or cages.
It is precisely because it is so hard that the processing of sea floor stone is very difficult.
Don't underestimate the value of a pair of sea tower stone handcuffs. It is very difficult to make these things. They are basically priceless and have no market. The entire Don Quixote family only has a few pairs.
In fact, apart from the Navy and the World Government, probably only the Beast Pirates who control Wano can produce this thing.
Brother Ming got the handcuffs from the Beasts Pirates.
Blackmail... No, the deal is done.
Without calling his men over, Doflamingo personally brought several large boxes of Bailey, an animal-type Devil Fruit, and a box containing a pair of seastone handcuffs from the palace's treasure house.
After confirming that everything was put away, the smile on Ren's face was brighter than the sunshine in Dressrosa:
"Hahahaha...please cooperate! Joker, my dear friend, I will always remember you!"
He almost shed tears when he thought that the two of them just met by chance and the other party was willing to generously support the Lion Heart Pirates...
Brother, I am determined to be your friend!
Brother Ming: "..."
Resist the urge to (╯°Д°)╯︵┴┴.
He was disgusted by the moved look on Ren's face.
He swore that he had never seen such a shameless person.
He is also a tycoon, but in comparison, Marshall D. Teach is nothing, and he is not even worthy to carry Francis D. Lane's shoes.
He now somewhat believes that the so-called "D" clan may really be the natural enemies of God. Even he, a former Tianlong, was poisoned...
“A pleasure to work with.”
Brother Ming resisted the urge to kill, his face was as cloudy as the weather on the Grand Route, "You'd better not remember me!"
He doesn't want to be blackmailed anymore.
"Hahahaha, friend, don't be so outspoken."
Ren put his arm around Tianyaksha's shoulders, "I think we can have a more in-depth cooperation. Unlike this one-time transaction, I guarantee that you will not suffer a loss."
"oh?"
Doflamingo took off his stupid hand calmly, with a more cautious expression, "What kind of cooperation method?"
If he wasn't here for blackmail, he wouldn't mind having an ally with abnormal strength, even if the two sides were just a plastic brotherhood.
"Friend, I have a plan and I need your cooperation..."
As the night wore on, the conversation continued, and the real collaboration began.
There is a reason why Ren didn't kill Doflamingo.
Because with the few people under his command, they cannot even control the entire Kingdom of Dressrosa, let alone annex the Don Quixote family's network of influence all over the world.
If Doflamingo falls, most of his network of connections and businesses under his command will fall apart. In the end, he will only benefit others in vain, and he will not get much benefit.
Moreover, he is about to go to the first half of the Grand Line to stare at Blackbeard and participate in the war on the top... He really can't spare much time and energy for farming and development at the moment.
To be continued...
