New world.
Dressrosa, Royal Palace.
Doflamingo instantly crushed the Den Den Mushi in his hand that was connecting to Albert into pieces.
Then he covered his face with his other hand and let out a suppressed, low laugh.
"Hehehehehe!"
"Hehehehehe!"
Once again being despised by others!
He, Don Quixote Doflamingo, was once again despised!
The memory of the last time was particularly clear. It was when he was ten years old and shot his father to death. He returned to the holy land of Marijoa with his father's head, who had caused the current suffering of the family, and wanted to resume his identity as a Celestial Dragon.
He still remembers clearly the sarcasm and disdain shown by the group of celestial dragons in front of the gate of the holy land.
"Donquixote Doflamingo, you are no longer a Celestial Dragon. What do you want to do by returning to the Holy Land of Marijoa? Are you begging for mercy?"
"Hey, let me see, aren't you your father's head? It's really disgusting!"
"Restore your identity? We, the Celestial Dragons, are a noble race of gods in the world. Do you think we will accept a traitor again?"
"Go away! Even if you bring your father's dirty head with you, we will never allow you to return to the Holy Land."
"Betrayal is unforgivable. There is no place for you in the Holy Land of Marijoa, Doflamingo, just go back and be a piece of trash!"
The celestial dragons who occupied high positions looked down upon him with absolute contempt and regarded him as an ant.
He was like a homeless dog with nowhere to go. He was rejected by the Celestial Dragons of the holy land of Marijoa and was not welcomed at all.
From that day on, he secretly swore in his heart that he would destroy this world ruled by the Celestial Dragons.
Establish the Don Quixote family from the North Sea, increase the industrial chain and expand the power;
To seize the position of Shichibukai, rule Dressrosa, and become the new king;
Then he became the biggest intermediary "Joker" in the underground world and colluded with those authoritative figures of the underground forces...
Along the way.
With his absolute strength and power, almost no one dared to defy or disobey him.
But today, I finally met one.
Charlotte Coles!
The youngest major general in the navy completely infuriated him!
A surge of murderous intent erupted in his heart, and uncontrollable anger spread in his mind, making Doflamingo extremely angry.
He stood up with a cold expression, draped the pink feather coat next to him over his back, walked to the window, and reached out to push open the glass window.
Kacha!
A gust of cold wind blew, blowing the pink feather coat on Doflamingo's back.
It was just getting light outside and there was still a faint white mist on the sea.
The sun has not yet risen.
He looked towards the direction of the North Sea. There was no cloud in the sky over there, so he could not use his aerial ability.
It seems now.
The only way is to go to the Sabaody Archipelago!
Doflamingo jumped down, and then he actually moved forward in the air.
Although the Sabaody Archipelago is very close to the Navy Headquarters, the Navy can rush to rescue quickly...
But so what
Just kill Charlotte Coles before the naval support arrives!
Relying on his identity as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the secret of holding the Celestial Dragons' "national treasure", the navy dared not do anything to him!
Doflamingo walked forward, stepping on the air.
A cold light flashed in the red glasses, and the pink feather coat behind him fluttered in the strong wind.
…
…
Clark Island, North Sea.
After Coles walked out of the valley, he asked Bartolomeo and others beside him.
"Why are you here?"
Bartolomeo suppressed his excitement and told the whole story.
“Major General Coles, we are here to buy special medicines from the North Sea. There are many patients in the East Sea who need these medicines, but they cannot afford the sky-high prices sold through the World Government’s channels.
So I formed the Cross Society, led people to cross the waterway of Upside Down Mountain, and came to the North Sea in person to bring back these special medicines. "
Coles had seen reports about the special medicine in newspapers.
This is a medicine that treats a strange disease similar to the leukemia he had in his previous life.
Originally, the price of the medicine was just a little expensive, but due to the obstruction of the Grand Line Calm Belt and the Red Earth Continent, transportation across the seas was difficult, and now it can only appear through the channels of the World Government.
Under such circumstances, the price of the already expensive special-effect medicine increased more than ten times, and even reached a sky-high price of one million Baileys per bottle in the East China Sea.
Although the purchasing power of one million Baileys would be nearly twenty times lower if converted into RMB in the previous life, how many sick families could afford such a bottle of sky-high-priced medicine for a long time
Coles's naval colleague Maude in Rogers had a family member who suffered from this disease.
This leads to Mod working hard to become stronger every day, just to earn more money to buy expensive medicine for his family.
Coles was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Bartolomeo and others came to the North Sea through the dangerous Upside-Down Mountain just to buy medicine for those patients.
He asked again, "After you bring the special medicine back, how much do you plan to sell it for?"
The Cross members nearby were also looking forward to this question.
They wanted to know how much money they could make by bringing back so many special medicines to the East China Sea.
"Three thousand Baileys."
Bartolomeo answered sincerely.
Hearing the president's answer, the members of the Cross were stunned. They were all shocked by the extremely low price.
Coles' eyes narrowed.
"You set out from Roge Town in the East Sea, traveled thousands of miles, and experienced many dangers before reaching Clark Island. Now you only sell the special medicine you brought back for three thousand Baileys
Three thousand Baileys, your purchase price shouldn't be so low. If you sell it like this, you will probably lose a lot of money."
Bartolomeo raised the Bible in his hand and answered seriously.
“Major General Coles, thank you for guiding me onto the right path.
I have seen the way to salvation in the Bible, and the reason I established the Cross is that I want to do something for the world today.
I can actually sell the special medicine at one-tenth of the price offered by the World Government, which would allow me to gain fame and make a lot of money.
But there are many poor families of patients in Donghai. They can grit their teeth and afford the special medicine worth 100,000 Baileys, but can they take it forever
Specific medicines need to be taken steadily for a long time in order to exert their medicinal properties and make the disease disappear.
Since I chose to go out to sea and bring back the special medicine, I must ensure that everyone in the East China Sea can continue to be able to afford this special medicine which was originally extremely expensive."
After listening to President Bartolomeo's words, the members of the Cross nearby suddenly felt a strong sense of following.
During the time they spent with Bartolomeo, they were asked to read the Bible and not do bad things. They were a little annoyed at first, but later they gradually accepted it and even believed in the light.
President Bartolomeo, aren't you carrying light on you now
A member of the Cross Society suddenly had tears in his eyes and quickly covered his eyes with his hands, not wanting others to see his ugly macho appearance.
"The president is so great! It is because my family was diagnosed with a strange disease and urgently needed a special medicine that I followed the president to take risks.
I didn't expect the president to take such good care of us civilians and only sell it for 3,000 Baileys. The president is so conscientious and kind!"
The rest of the members were infected by the emotion and spoke out in support.
"President, from now on I will fight for you, even if it means I will die for you."
"President Bartolomeo, you are so great. I will follow you forever!"
"Support the President! Support the President!"
Coles did not pay attention to the powerful infectious characteristics of emotional power in the pirate world. He kept observing Bartolomeo with his observation Haki.
Under observation.
He discovered that Bartolomeo was not lying and that his words were sincere.
Because of Coles's action of sparing his life and the crucial sentence he said at the beginning.
Bartolomeo, who was going to become a vicious pirate, has now changed and embarked on the opposite path of a priest.
The world is developing next.
Perhaps there will no longer be a cannibal Bartolomeo who bombards and burns innocent citizens, but instead a president of the Cross who brings salvation to the weak.
Is this change a good thing
certainly.
This is a good thing!
At least for the families of patients in Donghai who cannot afford the high-priced special medicines, Bartolomeo's current change means the arrival of light.
"You've changed a lot."
Coles stretched out his right hand, and the black shadow power in his hand surged. After it fell on Bartolomeo's arm, a mysterious mark with rings, spikes, and star marks flashed.
"This is the power I bestow upon you. You can summon the Devil Ivy plant at any time. If the Cross encounters a problem that cannot be solved in Rogue Town, you can use this power to clear the obstacles."
By empowering Bartolomeo, Coles did not intend to form any force. After all, the Shadow Soldiers were his largest force.
He just took into consideration that Bartolomeo's current strength was still very weak, and selling low-priced special-effect medicines in the East China Sea would inevitably encounter many obstacles.
Only then was the Devil Ivy, a B-level shadow soldier, temporarily given to the other party.
This can be considered as some of the efforts that Coles has made in the matter of special medicine.
