Chapter Ninety-Three: A Little Game

"It's a pity, I should have at least left one for specimens......" No matter what Qiubai regrets, and whether he really wants to keep a mermaid for elegant specimens, but once this kind of thing is done, there is no regret.

Because as soon as the cage is opened, as soon as the tail of the mermaid lady touches the water, I want to catch them back...... That's not even a thought to be.

Who is the fastest swimmer in the world?

But only a merfolk can defeat a merfolk.

What's even more regrettable is that due to the pressure caused by some sightlines, Qiubai doesn't even have the opportunity to appreciate the mermaid's structure. The cages were recovered, the delivery man left, and then the boxes were unpacked, and almost in a blink of an eye, Qiubai released them.

So the question is, why did he do this? Qiubai's behavior is very risky...... He really wants to be a good person, right? That's a bit of a joke.

The reason is actually very, very simple, first of all, he wants to do it...... This is just a choice of yes or no in the face of a question, as a pirate, of course, you can do what you want, if you can't "do what you want", then what's the point of being a pirate?

Second, for more realistic reasons, if there is a chance to have any intersection with the mermaid, Qiubai will never want to be in such a negative situation as it is now, because Qiubai always has some excellent plans and bad intentions. The mermaid race, although suppressed by humans in the deep sea, does not mean that they have no strength, in fact, the mermaid has a weapon of mass destruction - one of the world's three ancient weapons, the "Sea King" Poseidon.

And for this "Sea King", Qiubai seems to have a little idea.

But what Qiubai thinks, it has nothing to do with those fishman sisters. They were only "incredible" and extremely lucky to be released before they encountered auctions, viewing, exhibitions, molestation, etc., so even if they still don't know Qiubai's identity and why he did it, they are still grateful in their hearts for his kind instructions and actions.

They also plan to contact the Sun Pirates according to the Autumn Vernacular.

So with gratitude, they plunged headlong into the sea and ...... He never showed his head again.

Eh, don't you like to say goodbye? What doesn't exist, gratitude is gratitude, but for them fleeing is the number one priority.

On the other hand, at this time a major event happened to the Navy in the North Sea: a warship sank after a storm.

It should be said that the sinking of naval warships is a common occurrence, but the reason for this major event is that all the sailors and officers above were killed, including the commander of the warship and a powerful elite vice admiral of the naval headquarters.

The lieutenant general died in the storm, and this is really a big deal.

The lieutenant general was drowned in such a calm little wave in the North Sea? It's too metaphysical to accept, and it's not actually true.

The fact is that the warship was not sunk by a storm at all, it was sunk by a powerful enemy. And in the North Sea, there are only a handful of pirates who can cause the total annihilation of the warships carrying the vice admiral.

It can even be said that there is only one, or for that pirate group, the battle is not the key point, how to disguise the attacked warship as a shipwreck is the most important thing.

…………

"Lieutenant General Spone, I repeat...... To put it simply, I'm just wondering about the routes of some navy. ”

"You have carried out the task of escorting the 'Heavenly Gold' for the Tianlong people three times in a row, and the shipping route of the 'Heavenly Gold' should be clear, I hope you can tell me those things honestly."

"In the perception of the Navy and even the outside world, you are already a dead man, so what's the point of protecting and hiding those things? You don't have a good impression of the Draconians, do you? ”

In a dark, damp cabin, Doflamingo seemed to be patiently persuading, but anyone who knew anything about him would know that this notoriously brutal pirate was on the verge of breaking out.

All it takes is a little more, and he'll be completely detonated.

Dover sat in a chair, the table in front of him was full of delicacies, and opposite him was a "bloody man" with the word "big" fixed to the wall of the ship, and it was difficult to tell from the way he looked that he was the original vice admiral in his early forties, in the prime of life.

All members of the Don Quixote family were dispatched in order to obtain information about the "Heavenly Gold", and they were preparing for further actions in the future.

Although Doflamingo sent spies to the navy, at this time, the "first red heart" was only a low-level officer at the rank of captain, and a lot of information was impossible for him to access.

And this information must be obtained as soon as possible, and Doflamingo does not have so much time to wait, so he can only take the risk of attacking the "big man" of the navy, but fortunately, he also knows how to measure, and the object of action is only the vice admiral, not the general or even the marshal - the latter two are purely looking for death.

The top-secret route of Heavenly Gold is also best known only to the Navy Headquarters in charge of actual operations, and a lot of specific information is not known to the world government officials in charge of coordination, otherwise Dover can simply adopt a buying strategy.

As for the vice admiral? That's not very easy to buy.

So compared to the major operations here, human trafficking and Devil Fruit capture are not so important, the former is a strategic level operation, and the latter is just a tactical level. Therefore, they only sent Qiubai out, on the one hand, because in order to prevent the news from leaking, Dover's side wanted to concentrate all his forces to annihilate a warship in one fell swoop, and on the other hand, he had a certain degree of trust in Qiubai.

"Smart" pirates can do things outside the range of power, because wisdom is the most difficult to measure the kind of power itself, and Qiubai is the kind of smart pirate in Dover's view.

But now he is facing the stupidest vice admiral.

"Doflamingo, what do you want this information for, should you be arrogant enough to make a move on Heavenly Gold...... Oh, but it doesn't matter, no matter what you want to do, don't expect to hear a word of information from me. ”

The lieutenant general had a lot of backbone, otherwise he would not have taken on such a task, so it was difficult to expect him to use torture to extract confessions to allow him to reveal some information.

The lieutenant general's words made Dover's brow furrow, but when the latter was about to continue to "persuade", Torrebol stepped down the gangway.

"Now, Dover, Qiubai's emergency contact seems to be a very important matter."

Autumn white? Urgent? Significant? The words seemed to say something together, and Dover could only swallow back the words he had just said, and then took the telex from Torrebol:

"It's me."

"Dover?"

"Sorry, merfolk quest...... Failed. On the side of the telex, Qiubai's slightly "weak and lost" emotions were directly transmitted.

"Failure? What does that mean, and to what extent does it fail? Doflamingo's voice didn't sound like much had changed.

"All."

But Qiubai's words seemed to provoke Dover's emotions step by step.

"What the hell is going on, what happened?"

"To put it simply, the delivery man who caught the merfolk was chased by the Sun Pirates, and after handing over the goods, we met Fisher Tiger."

"The Fish-Man has been captured by the Sun Pirates."

"It can only be said that the mermaid traffickers are too big to do anything to the mermaids in double digits at once...... The rebound of Fish-Man Island is naturally coming. ”

Qiu Bai's words make people feel that the responsible party is on the traffickers and fish people, and in the face of the Sun Pirates, he himself is beyond his strength.

And after this plausible explanation, Doflamingo was silent for a long time.

"Really? That's hard work, it's not your responsibility. ”

"Return to the family as soon as possible, and we will have new and major actions in the future."

After finishing speaking, Doflamingo hung up the call very directly, so Qiubai felt a little incredible, and this is the end? A billion can be said that there is no and there is no more?

Is Dover actually a high-end person who treats money like dung?

How can it be! Things can't be as good as Qiubai thought.

At this time, Dover's face was already about to rain...... He's Doflamingo, and if anyone can think they can play with him, they're very wrong.

Although Qiu Bai didn't think so, he really didn't know enough about this person.

"What's the name of that pirate group that has always wanted to oppose us?" Dover shook the red wine in his glass, first staring at the spiral silence in the circle, and then suddenly asked a question.

"Komodo Pirates?" Torrebol said.

"Yes, it's the Pirates. Find a way to keep my lovely subordinates informed of their routes and travel times, and also reveal the information that he also has an unusually rare Devil Fruit...... Don Quixote from the hostile Don Quixote, with only two young midship-combatants and a polar bear pet with an extraordinarily precious treasure, Torrebol, do you think they'll do it? ”

"Dover, the bounty for that pirate captain can be more than 200 million, and ...... We're going to lose the fruit of childlike fun. Torrebol said he didn't answer the question of whether he would do it because the answer was too obvious.

If it was Dover himself, of course the Komodo Pirates would have to weigh it, but if it was a trainee combatant who had no bounty and no strength...... Why not get your hands dirty?

"Of course, I hope that my good subordinates will survive, but after the defeat...... It's just a little bit of a game, but it's ...... He has to survive to prove himself good again, doesn't he? ”

Either it succeeds completely, or it fails directly, and now Qiubai's half-actions are not as good as Doflamingo wants, so ...... He doesn't accept this kind of thing, since he has failed half of it, he will smash the remaining half himself.

Together with those who have failed.

Dover is still Dover, just as he did when he poked the firebolt in his own father's head all those years ago.

"Now, the struggles and the trials...... It's really interesting. Torrebol thought about it, and didn't think there was anything wrong with Dover's approach, but it was just a pity to lose a fruit.

And he didn't think that a rookie like Qiubai could survive the siege of such a pirate group.

But Torrebol would still do what Dover told him to do.

After he left, Dover began to savor the wine in his glass, and now that he had calmed down, he seemed to have tasted even the sweet smell of blood in the damp cabin.

Doflamingo licked his lips, the breath ...... Fascinate him.

At this time, he changed to the most bland tone, but in fact, his mood was already a volcano:

"As you can see, I am a person who attaches great importance to my family, and I will not punish my family unless I have to, my subordinates are family members, but if someone makes a mistake......"

"Lieutenant General Spurnay, to be honest I don't want to do that...... I hope you are also a person who values your family,"

"Do you have any family, Lieutenant General?"

"Wives and Children......"

"Or mother, brother?"

The sound of chains crashing against each other was heard, and the lieutenant general finally trembled.

Doflamingo admired this change in the other party, but unfortunately, no matter how slowly he tasted it, the wine in the glass was still drunk.
