Coincidental.

A very interesting coincidence

The current king of Dressrosa, Riku Dold III, has a similar idea to Kobra.

He also doesn't care about the "historical sites" in the country.

As for the actions of the five old stars against the [Demon], King Liku didn't care, thinking that Mr. Lindsay was enough to deal with it.

He had no reason to oppose the Five Old Stars.

But on the other hand, it would be better if you could take this opportunity to meet the five old stars in person to resolve the doubts in your heart.

There are some "doubts" about Dressrosa.

“……”

Kobra raised his hand slightly, signaling to King Liku, and then asked, "Your Excellency, what are you doing here?" ”

Although he had already deduced something in his heart, Kobra still wanted to hear what King Ku had to say.

King Liku's personality is hearty, and he is naturally willing to answer.

He rubbed his chin and grinned:

"After Mr. Lindsay appeared, I re-read the history of Dressrosa out of curiosity."

"I've found a problem—"

"As we all know, the royal family that once ruled Dressrosa was the Don Quixote family."

"After the Don Quixote family became the Draconians and moved into the Holy Land of Maryjoya, we waited for the Riku clan to become the rulers of Dressrosa."

"Strangely, the legend is well known, but there was no written record at the time."

"In that case, is the Don Quixote family still the rightful rulers of Dressrosa?"

King Riku paused.

"Not long ago, Don Quixote Doflamingo, who had just become the king of the Seven Martial Seas, intended to steal the entire country."

"Although I failed in the end, I also realized that the identity of the 'legitimate ruler' is very important, and Dressrosa must maintain the status of a member country."

"So, I'm going to meet with the Five Elders and ask them to confirm the rightful ruler of Dressrosa in order to maintain stability in the country."

“……”

Hearing this, Kobra thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's true. ”

According to rumors that Kobra heard, Riku Delder III was a benevolent and warlike king, and was not particularly good at politics.

And that's exactly what happened.

Kobra could feel that King Riku's move was reckless, but he was also determined.

"In that case, let's go together."

Kobra stretched out his hand, and King Riku stepped forward and walked side by side with Kobra.

The two stepped forward and pushed the door open.

……

Click-la-la-la!

Behind the huge stone gate is the interior of a magnificent palace.

Gorgeous carpets are laid out in front of you.

Not far away, there is a stone staircase, and a large number of "sharp swords" are inserted on the platform above.

Each sword represents a member of a world government!

Further up, there is the "Void Throne" that every royal family is familiar with.

To participate in the regular World Conference, the king of each member country is required to come here and take a solemn oath.

The content of the oath is to promise that the kings of all countries will remain "equal" and that there will be no dictatorship and so on.

And before the Void Throne, there are also nineteen weapons.

Those weapons were the oaths made by the "first twenty men" who created this world.

And the location of the Void Throne is the center of the world!

When no one is seated, it symbolizes world peace.

Just as the highest power in the world is the five old stars with the highest status among the Celestial Dragons.

No one can be called the "king" of this world!

The above is the meaning of the "Void Throne"!

……

Both Kobra and King Riku know this very well.

And it is indeed reasonable for the five old stars to choose the meeting place here.

The most formal, recent, and also the most symbolic.

“……”

When Kobra and King Riku looked up, they saw five figures not far away.

The five old stars, dressed in black suits, stood in front of the two kings, and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Their eyes turned to Kobra and King Riku.

More eyes are on Cobra.

Obviously, compared to the number of Liku kings, the five old stars are more concerned about the problem of "Neferutali Kobra".

One of the five old stars was the first to speak, and said:

"What do you want to ask, Kobra, the king of Alabastan?"

Kobra responded, "Well, where do you start......

He thought about it again and again, and then spoke eloquently.

"The [World Government] is an organization established 800 years ago by the hands of '20 kings'."

"As the Creators, their whole family was able to move to Maryjoy."

"Later, their people became known as the 'Celestial Dragons', and they have reigned at the top of the world for 800 years."

"For the 'twenty kings' need to be absolutely equal within themselves."

"In order not to let anyone dictate the dictatorship, they deliberately created a 'vacant' throne, which is now the Void Throne."

"The kings swore together that no one would ever sit on this throne, and they surrounded it with twenty weapons in their possession."

Kobra looked at King Riku on the side and continued:

"On the other hand, the twenty countries that lost their royal families have elected new kings, and they continue to do so to this day."

"As a result, the names of the royal families who were among the 'first twenty' have long since disappeared from their homeland."

Then, Cobra's words turned to look at the five old stars.

"However, Alabastan is different!"

"The king at that time, 'Lily', the queen of the Neferutari family, although she was among the 'first twenty', did not become a 'Celestial Dragon'."

"Since she returned to Alabastan, this is what the 'Neferutari Clan' is today."

"So, to be exact, there are only nineteen weapons in front of the throne."

“……”

Listening to Kobra's words, the five old stars were a little puzzled.

"We're not here for a history lesson, King Kobra."

"Everything is as you say, and then what?"

“……”

Cobra took a deep breath and continued:

"I've read all the old books in the country."

"All we know is the literature after the 'blank 100 years.'"

"But I can't find Queen Lily's name in those ancient texts!"

"She didn't return to the kingdom of Alabastan."

"Queen Lily's younger brother is the one who later ruled Alabastan."

"What do you know about Queen Lily?"

“……”

Hearing this, Satan Sheng, one of the five old stars, replied first:

"What did you think you wanted to ask......

"That was more than 800 years ago."

"Indeed, only the Neferutari family did not live in the Holy Land in the first place."

"But we only assume that she went back to her homeland by herself, and we have no way of knowing the specific reason and her subsequent whereabouts."

"Sorry, we really don't know."

“……”

Faced with such an unassailable answer, Kobra was silent for a moment, and then asked:

"So, what does [D] mean?"

“？！”

This sentence was like thunder, and it exploded in the ears of the five old stars.

A few drops of cold sweat ran down Kobra's forehead, and he explained, "In fact, Queen Lily once sent back a letter that has been passed down from generation to generation among the Neferutari clan. ”

“……”

Before Kobra could finish his words, he suddenly saw a dark shadow walking from the side of the Void Throne.

The long, thin black shadow moved slowly, eventually seated on the Void Throne.

The dark shadow's pupils turned, and he looked at Kobra and then at King Liku of Dressrosa.

"I remember the 'destruction'."

The black shadow spoke, and said quietly:

"Kobra, it's not a good thing to have too much imagination......"
