Chapter 26 Trimming
Uptown, a few hundred meters from the town hall, is a luxurious, low-key villa.
The hall of the villa is tall, spacious, opulent and full of baroque rococo magnificence.
On the walls around the room, dozens of gorgeous lampstands are hung, on which candles made of sperm whale brain oil are quietly burning, one is enough for half a year's expenses of ordinary people!
Dozens of precious candles were lit at the same time, reflecting the hall as if it were day.
"Rescued?"
In the center of the hall, sitting on a sofa made of giant sea king skin, a slightly chubby kind man held his chin and asked.
At his feet, kneeling was a very beautiful girl, no matter how gorgeous and dazzling the translucent gold silk dance dress was, it could not hide the dog's tail and empty eyes behind her ass.
"Yes, Mr. Thompson."
Opposite the 'big bill' Thompson, a man in a brown suit, tie, bowler hat, high nose and deep eyes, very 'social elite' demeanor, nodded calmly.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a metal ball stick hanging from his waist, this man would be more like a civilian than one of the martial arts cadres of the Jiedi family.
'Basman' Joe,
"When I arrived at Jasmine Manor, the other party had already rescued the three cadres of the Sihua family and escaped through the city sewers..."
He was the figure Rossi had seen leaping across the rooftop.
Unlike 'Man-Eating Dog' Toru, who relies on a large number of hounds to fight, 'Basman' Joe's strength comes from his inhuman strength and agility beneath his polite appearance.
"Then why don't you chase it?"
An unceremonious question next to him interrupted Joe's words,
Unlike Joe, who is well-mannered in a suit and tie, the strong man who interrupts him exudes the smell of violence and gunpowder all over his body.
The muscular body is wrapped in a bullet chain, a bomb is hung on his chest, a short gun is pinned to his waist, and a bazooka is carried behind him, and he looks like a Rambo armed to the teeth.
'Machine gun' Vincentho,
As the name suggests, he is a complete arms expert.
Temper, it's also the kind of straightforward character.
"Sorry, only rats like to get into the sewers."
The polite Qiao gracefully took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose. It was as if the mere mention of the word 'sewer' made him unbearable.
"If that waste is still alive, Toru can let his 'children' chase it, but alas..."
Toru had been devoured by his hounds, leaving only a pile of hair and broken bones.
"Hmph, Toru is a piece of waste, and so are you!"
The strong man Vincentor interrupted again mercilessly, making Joe 'the batsman' look stunned. On the elegant face, the eyes suddenly became dangerous.
Murderous!
"We're all brothers, we're family—"
The last person in the hall spoke to dilute the murderous aura in the air, he was wearing a scarf, a trench coat, and a smiling face, looking like the host of some kind of entertainment program.
'Flower Bow Tie' Paul,
A member of the Jadi family, responsible for negotiating and acting as an intermediary. With good rhetoric and... Violence is famous.
"Come, everyone, have a drink and get rid of your anger."
Expertly pour four glasses of whiskey from the freezer in the corner of the hall and put in the ice.
Smiling, Paul first brought a glass of wine to their boss, Thompson, and then walked between the tense Joe and Vincenzo with two glasses and handed them to them.
"There's a reason why Joe chose not to chase,"
Taking a sip of whiskey, Paul looked around.
"The other party can kill Toru and dozens of people in Jasmine Manor, so his strength is naturally not weak."
"Coupled with the three leaders of the four-suit family who escaped from the trap, if they rashly pursue in an environment like the sewer, it will be very dangerous once they are ambushed by the other party."
As Paul speaks, even Vincentor, the reckless 'machine gun', is not good to say anything.
Changing places, even if he didn't dare to say that he could take down the four cadres of the four-suit family, as well as unknown enemies.
"The key lies in this 'unknown' enemy."
After the three subordinates finished speaking, Thompson, as a parent, slowly spoke.
"Virgo alone will never be able to break Jasmine Manor."
"Tomorrow morning, I'm going to see the details of those rats!"
"Yes!" X3
The boss spoke, and the three leaders naturally began to go all out to track down.
I believe that tonight, the whole of Spice Damaruz will have trouble sleeping.
————
By this time, the 'real culprit' who had broken through Jasmine's Manor had sailed out to sea from Pier 3 to a coast next to the town of Speydameruz.
"This is it, wait a minute."
Virgo, who took off his coat, didn't say a word, jumped into the sea.
After waiting in silence for a few minutes on deck, Virgo's mushroom hairstyle surfaced first, followed by the face of a small squid he was sticking to, and a small box in his hand.
The Devil Fruit obtained by the Four Colors family is hidden under this uninhabited coast, which is guaranteed to make anyone of any ability sigh.
"Drop the rope,"
As Rossi nodded, Polkin, who was next to him, immediately dropped the rope and pulled up Virgo, who had dived into the sea, with his uncle.
That's right, not only Porkin and his uncle, but also his grandfather, aunt, brother, and cousin were on the Pinta.
After seeing the basement of the Jetty family, how could Rossi let Porkin's family stay in town? If he doesn't do anything, I'm afraid he will be able to collect the body of his whole family the next day.
"Look, this is the Devil Fruit we have."
Taking the box handed by Virgo, who climbed onto the deck, Torpol, who was wrapped in bandages like a mummy, used his sticky ability to create a key, and opened the treasure chest while turning, revealing the inside:
A 'pear' with a circle pattern.
Well, this shape is indeed the fruit.
Rosie had seen the 'Devil Fruit Illustrated Book' in his previous life, so he naturally recognized the identity of this fruit at a glance.
By the way, the most bizarre thing is the rustling fruit, which looks like a cantaloupe with two small cacti, and it is covered with thorns! I don't know how the sand crocodile can get into its mouth.
The most unremarkable is the future Yamato's 'Inu Dog Fruit Oguchi True God Form', which is exactly the same as ordinary persimmons, and even the pattern is only a small circle. No wonder it was eaten by mistake...
"This Devil Fruit is yours."
Handing the Devil Fruit in his hand to Dover, Torrebol glanced at the three beside him and saw an affirmative answer in their gazes.
"The previous grudge has been written off, and what I'm going to say next-"
The scrawny Torrebol stepped back, got down on one knee, and lowered his head to get himself below Dover.
At the same time, Diamanti, Pica, and Virgo, who had already been discussed, also knelt down on one knee to Dover.
"The previous method of stunning the Jiedi family is called Overlord Color Domineering, which is proof of having the 'King's Qualification'!"
"Doflamingo, you are the chosen one from heaven!"
For Torrebol, such a person who will surely be the king and hegemon in the future stands in front of him, and it is natural to bow down.
"Please let us be your strength, be your family-"
"Wait!"
At this moment, Rossi, who was next to him, stepped forward and interrupted Torrebol's words.
Seriously, he didn't like Torrebol in his heart.
Having inherited everything from 'Ronald Nandi' and supporting him with Doflamingo, Rossi has recognized the identity of the Dover brothers.
And Torrebol ·
In the original book, it was he who instigated Dover to kill people and set fires, and put Dover in the position of 'god', which developed Dover's arrogance.
When Dover grew up and realized that this model was not really 'family', Torrepol and Diamanti, who were already secretly afraid of Dover, turned their heads and desperately maintained Dover's 'majesty'.
Although Torrebol has always said that 'we are family', in fact, he has always been very afraid in his heart that Dover, who is far above him in strength and wisdom, will abandon them!
That's why Luo said, 'You who are self-proclaimed staff officers, but you are just a puppet operated by Dover', were so angry that they broke the defense on the spot...
While these thoughts were spinning in his mind, Rossi stepped forward and interrupted the other party's 'confession ceremony'.
Facing Torrebol, who had an ugly face, he just said lightly:
"Have you ever seen a family member who needs to bow down?"
?!
"Polkin, will you bow down to your uncle, or your grandfather?"
Faced with Rossi's question, Polkin next to him instinctively shook his head.
"How is that possible? Hmmm..."
"When I help my grandfather wash his feet, it's not considered kneeling, right?"
··· You're quite filial.
"I will not bow down to Dover, because we are brothers, we are family."
Rossi looked at the silent quartet,
"You want to be Dover's subordinate, I'm fine."
"But if you want to be Dover's family, then stand up and prove with your actions—"
"The bond between you and Dover is worthy of the name of 'family'!"
After saying that, Rosie turned his head to look at Dover, who was holding a pear-shaped devil fruit with a biting expression.
"Wait!"
"Don't eat this Devil Fruit."
?!
