Chapter 241: Thumbs Up

The original Dressrosa was a tropical island with beautiful scenery.

King Ricud Kurodord III, who pursued benevolent government.

He was a philanthropist and often helped many countries caught up in war, and won the trust of the people.

Overall, Dressrosa is not the best country, but it is also a peaceful and livable country.

However, the spread of that news changed everything.

The coastal waters have become a chaotic battlefield of naval warfare.

And the interior of the island in Dressrosa is becoming more and more lively as the auction approaches!

……

There are only two days left until the auction takes place!

The streets of Dressrosa are full of people from all walks of life.

Pirates, merchants, adventurers, inhabitants, soldiers of other countries, outlaws, ambitious......

A jumble of people mingled and burst into an almost fanatical noise.

In such a situation, conflict and chaos are inevitable.

But as far as the eye could see, the King's army of Dressrosa could be seen, but they seemed to have received some kind of order.

Even though his face was full of entanglement, he couldn't come forward at all.

The task of maintaining order and quelling disputes has long been handed over to another group of "special" teams.

It's them – a bunch of "toys" of different shapes.

It is said that for this auction, King Riku specially invited helpers from an unknown country, and there are enough people and strong mobility.

They are scattered throughout Dressrosa and receive guests from afar, day and night.

……

Commercial street, outer street.

A robot toy, doing his duty, warmly entertains the four humans in front of him.

"Ding, ding!"

"It's me, I'm the toy robot in charge of the guide!"

The robot turned its head and its arms bobbed back and forth in a cheerful sound.

Such a wonderful "creature" is not seen anywhere else, and it is not even recorded in history books.

Urta and Robin curiously approached each other, and the toy robot played with them.

Not far away, Klockdahl was watching the changes, and he was becoming more and more curious about the current situation of Dressrosa.

What is Doflamingo's purpose? What is the World Government planning to do? In the territory of Dressrosa, how many heroes are hidden?

“……”

On the other side, Aven Lindsay rubbed his chin and looked at the toy robots, and more "toys" in the distance.

Sure enough, did it appear?

Toy.

……

Speaking of "toys", one person has to be mentioned.

A special cadre of the Don Quixote family, a superhuman childlike fruit capable - sugar!

In Doflamingo's strategy, sugar plays an important role.

The root cause of this is the Devil Fruit that Sucrose eats.

Superman is a childlike fruit!

The ability of this fruit is extremely special.

First of all, the person who is touched by the ability person will change into a variety of toys according to the person's preference.

For example, dolls, animal dolls, plastic dummies, etc.

At the same time, people who are related to the person who has been turned into a toy, such as relatives or friends, will lose all memories of the person who has been "toyed".

In other words, once it is turned into a toy, it will be completely forgotten by everyone!

Finally, toys do not lose their ability to speak and think independently, but they can force them to make "contracts".

Even if it is a request to "work for the Don Quixote family or fight to the death", the toys have no way to resist but to carry it out!

It is known that there is only one way to turn a toy back into its original form, and that is to make the capable person unconscious.

All toys will be restored, and all memories will be restored at the same time!

……

From the perspective of "ability" alone, the Childlike Fruit is tantamount to a "strategic-level weapon"!

That's the terrible ability to radically change "all situations"!

Combined with Doflamingo's decision-making, the existence of sugar is particularly tricky and has to be guarded against.

Back to the present.

The "toys" that appear all over Dressrosa are undoubtedly victims of the childlike fruit's abilities.

They must not be from an "unknown country", most of them are the natives of Dressrosa, or even the king's army who are trying to resist.

The group tried to resist, but were defeated by the Don Quixote, and were turned into toys and signed a contract to work for their enemies.

For example, the "toy robot".

Under the funny behavior of giggling, most of them hide a group of extremely angry "independent consciousness", but there is nothing to be done.

“……”

"This thing looks suspicious no matter how you look at it."

Klockdahl muttered.

He didn't know anything about the Childlike Fruit, but his instincts were sharp, so he glanced at Lindsay.

The two of them each pulled a little girl apart, and then gathered around the toy robot.

"You're in charge of reception?"

"That's right, that's right!"

The toy robot nodded repeatedly, then reached into the pockets of his waist and pulled out a few golden metal cards.

"Dingdong, I'm the commissioner in charge of issuing the Berry Gold Card, do you want to know?"

“……”

Lindsey and Klockdahl looked at each other, then motioned for the toy robot to continue.

The toy robot explains:

"The scale of this auction is huge, and there are also four Devil Fruits involved, so the transaction amount is naturally exaggerated."

"It's not just the auction itself, it's the other businesses that are huge."

"Therefore, in order to facilitate the transaction of customers, Liku King specially launched the anonymous 'Berry Gold Card' to store a large amount of money to facilitate transactions."

“……”

Hearing this, everyone nodded slightly, indicating understanding.

If you let that group of wealthy businessmen wander around with a few large boxes of banknotes, it will inevitably be a little inconvenient, and even affect the enthusiasm of the transaction.

Doflamingo's arrangement does have a point.

"Ding-dong! If you want to exchange Berry for Gold, you can do it on my side! ”

The robot waved its arms and looked at the people expectantly.

“……”

In the next second, Lindsay, Uta, and Robin turned their eyes at the same time and looked at Klockdahl, also full of anticipation.

Klockdahl: "......"

Klocodahl: "? ”

Klockdahl: "See what I'm doing?" ”

Hearing this, the other three were stunned, and Lindsay was even more puzzled: "What about your funds?" ”

"What part of the underworld you say?"

Crocodall sipped his cigar in his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and said unpleasantly: "I lost it all in the Chambord Islands!" ”

Lindsay: "......"

Lindsay: "So ......"

"So?"

Crocodall's forehead burst into blue tendons, and he said gloomily: "So, do you want to play a role in this head worth 1.6 billion?" ”

Lindsay suddenly realized and said distressedly: "Indeed, the bounty of 81 million Berry is not enough to start the capital. ”

Klockdahl: "......"

The two of you said a word, and the more you talked, the more unhappy they became, and the two little girls next to them were stunned.

But the toy robot was the first to react and said loudly:

"Ding-dong! Do you have no money? ”

“……”

Lindsey and Klockdahl took a break and nodded towards the toy robot.

They thought that as a guide for the guests, the toy robot would provide some money-making solutions.

Unexpectedly, the other party's head suddenly flipped up and down, turning into a mocking expression.

"Phew!"

He spat on the ground with a mouthful of engine oil and said disdainfully: "Poor ghost, get out of the way, don't get in the way!" ”

Lindsay: "......"

Klockdahl: "......"

With black faces, the two each threw a punch and punched the toy robot in the face.

This was followed by a flurry of punches and kicks to vent his inner unhappiness.

After beating the other party violently, the toy robot's face flipped again, and he said, "Ding...... Ding dong! It can be redeemed for an empty card. ”

With a trembling grip hand, he pulled out four gold cards from his pocket.

Lindsey and Klockdahl each had one, and the other two were split between Robin and Uta.

At this point, Klockdahl's anger dissipated a little, and he turned to the side to think about the solution of "funding".

Robin and Uta walked together, walking around and enjoying the scenery along the way.

Only Aven Lindsay was still standing in front of the toy robot, looking down at the other party who fell to the ground.

“……”

Lindsay suddenly stretched out her right hand.

The toy robot suddenly trembled, and thought that he was going to be beaten again, only to find out that Lindsay was trying to pull him up.

Swish!

After pulling the robot up, Lindsay patted the other party's plastic chest and gestured:

"It's not an easy job, isn't it?"

"Ding...... Ding dong! ”

Toy robots always feel that there is something in the other person's words.

After a moment of thought, he suddenly realized something, and his plastic eyelids widened suddenly.

Could it be that this man in front of him knows the inside story of Dressrosa?!

"Ding-ding-ding-dong......"

The toy robot wanted to say something, but it was limited by the fruit ability contract, and it couldn't make a sound for a while.

He trembled with urgency, and even emitted hot steam, rubbing parts all over his body.

At this moment, a new person arrived.

Following the contents of the "contract", the toy robot must go to the reception as soon as possible, and it is impossible to control its body at all.

"Ding-dong! I...... I'm not...... Toys, I'm ......"

The toy robot became more and more agitated, and it was about to collapse on its own.

Lindsay grabbed the other party's grip again, clenched his fist and touched it lightly.

Boom!

"It's terrible to be completely forgotten......

“……”

As soon as these words came out, the robot's mood stabilized.

Because he is now sure that the man in front of him knows the inside story and knows the great conspiracy that happened in Dressrosa!

No matter what the other party's purpose is, as long as they can stop those pirates and save King Xia Liku and this country, nothing else matters!

Thinking of this, the toy robot gave up his resistance and allowed the contract to take control of his body, pushing him towards the others.

"Ding Dong!"

"You two, do you need a gold card?"

"I'm a helper toy that King Liku bought from the distant sea for this auction!"

"Huh? What do you say my eyes are flowing from? ”

“……”

"Oh, it's just engine oil!"

The toy robot suddenly raised its right arm and swayed back and forth, as if waving goodbye to someone.

"After all, toys can't shed tears......"

……

Not far away, Lindsay left a back.

He also raised his right arm and gave a thumbs up.
