The [turbulent waves] that destroyed the town were just [small ripples] that no one noticed at the beginning.
………………
West Sea, Kingdom of Saybram.
"What? Joker stopped the arms trade? Then how can we still fight this war!?"
A violent roar echoed through the palace hall, and a luxurious golden wine glass was smashed next to the minister in black who was kneeling at the foot of the steps.
"Your Majesty, please calm down, they just said 'suspend the transaction'." The minister in black said with a long and narrow face: "Currently, the weapons inventory is sufficient, so please, Your Majesty..."
Bang--!!
This time, a luxurious metal plate was thrown hard at the minister, followed by a loud roar from the king: "Even if you pause, the king of ramen in the land of flowers is actually related to 'Coral' and has weapons."
It’s very troublesome to deal with them when there is no supply, but now they tell me that they are out of stock? Please continue to contact them!!”
"Yes!" The minister in black hurriedly slipped away.
There are many countries like this, and they are all customers of 'joker', an arms dealer in the underground world. They have long relied on joker's weapons supply to resist or invade enemy countries. At this time, they faced joker's unilateral announcement of 'suspension of transactions'
', all these countries panicked.
Not only the arms trade, but also the 'underground auction house', 'information house', 'gold exchange house', 'human trading house' and other industries that Joker is proud of have also suspended their activities.
People in the underground world are all speculating whether Joker, the upstart of the underground forces, has encountered enemies or troubles that are difficult to deal with. Otherwise, why would he shrink his power when the momentum is at its peak, like a curled up hedgehog?
No one knows that joker, one of the new emperors of the underground world, is none other than Don Quixote Doflamingo, the ‘Ama Yaksha’ of the [Shichibukai].
And what he wants to do now is not to sell weapons or compete for territory, but to [steal the country]! For this goal, why not leave other industries behind for the time being?
The dark cloud of conspiracy is gradually approaching the beautiful country of 'Dressrosa'.
………………
Dressrosa is located in the "New World" of the Grand Line. This is a tropical island with a resort style.
There are a large number of giant mushroom-shaped rocks on the coast near the island, surrounding the country. Dressrosa, led by the royal family of all generations - the Riku family, lived a beautiful life of poverty but peace.
There has been no war here for hundreds of years.
There are two reasons for this.
First, the "King's Army" of the Riku royal family is quite powerful. Even if pirates invade, they can be wiped out or driven away in time.
Secondly, the poverty of the country is not worthy of invasion by those big pirates or powerful countries, and there is absolutely no possibility of civil strife in the country, because the Liku royal family's status in the hearts of the people is extremely respected, and they can even offer all their belongings for the king's words.
.
Although it is poor, the entire country is filled with fragrant and charming flowers, and the aroma of the country's proud cuisine also makes tourists linger. Therefore, relying on the efforts of the people and the income brought by tourism, Dressrosa
This country can be considered to be able to maintain its stability.
Moreover, this country is also famous for the passionate dancing of its tireless beauties. Perhaps due to customs and folk customs, women in this country are particularly enthusiastic when they are in love, but they are also extremely jealous.
The land is heavy, and once betrayed by a man, it is easy to stab it with a knife. Moreover, the more beautiful a woman is, the more ruthless the attack will be! It can be said that love and hate are clearly defined, so emotional disputes and even physical conflicts are common here.
thing.
Let’s go back to the royal family of Dressrosa.
900 years ago, the family that was ruling the Kingdom of Dressrosa was the Don Quixote family. At that time, there was the Dontata clan, also known as the "little human race" in the kingdom. They were innocent, kind and powerful, and were favored by the people at that time.
The royal family were treated as slaves and forced to work as coolies underground. In this way, the Kingdom of Dressrosa became very wealthy by using the work of the small humans.
However, after a blank 100 years, the Don Quixote royal family abandoned the Kingdom of Dressrosa 800 years ago and joined the World Government and became the "Celestial Dragons". The Riku family was elected as the new royal family.
King Liku heard about the cruel treatment of the small humans by the previous royal family, and he knelt down to apologize on the spot, and liberated the small humans. He promised that from now on, the small humans can freely take all daily necessities in the country for free, and used [Fairy Prank] to deal with it.
Domestic people will explain.
From then on, the Dongtada clan and the Liku clan had been friends for generations. However, because of the loss of free labor from the small humans, the Kingdom of Dressrosa became poorer than before.
The current king of Dressrosa is Riku Dold III. He is a good king that is praised and firmly supported by all the people. He is a close friend of Elizabello II, the king of the Kingdom of Prodence.
During the 800 years of rule by the Riku family, there has not been any war in the kingdom. Yes, this can be called a [miracle] for the country. Dressrosa is such an extremely peaceful country.
However, nightmares always come suddenly.

"Really? Are you sure?"
In the dark hall, Doflamingo, who was wearing a pink feather coat, leaned forward slightly and said in a slightly surprised tone: "Is that boy's passion ark really sailing towards the Somida Islands?"
"It's absolutely true, young master!" Gladius, wearing goggles and a mask, leaned forward and said: "The spies on the Mysterious Island discovered that the sailing direction of the Passionate Ark pointed to the Somida Islands. And the pointer on the Mysterious Island
Businessmen also confirmed this, and the 'Coral' Chamber of Commerce purchased a permanent pointer to the Somida Islands."
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. It seems that the goddess of luck is still on my side this time!" Doflamingo laughed wildly: "The action time is set for tomorrow night! Gladius, you are in charge
Gather the cadres! I'll deal with that idiot King Riku...baaaaaaaa!"
"As you command, young master." Gladius bowed, turned and walked out of the dark hall.
The empty hall was surrounded by darkness, leaving only Doflamingo standing in the center of the hall and laughing uncontrollably: "Bah, bah, bah, bah! Ferocious chain, somehow my [luck] is better.
!You who love to travel to the archipelago had the opportunity to come to Dressrosa and stop my plan, but you missed it!! It’s too late~~ Even if you rush to Dressrosa from the Somida Islands now,
Sa, it’s too late to stop my plan!”
"Tomorrow night, this country will return to the rule of the Don Quixote clan!"
