Now is not the time when there are no other choices.
The Revolutionary Army established by Dragon is casting a covetous eye on the World Government, gaining momentum and spreading its theories and influence, with over a hundred nations rallying under their banner.
Previously, it was difficult for the Revolutionary Army to infiltrate the Allied Kingdom members since they shared common interests with the World Government.
But this time, it concerns their own interests. If not handled properly, not all, but at least one in ten Allied Kingdom members will bear grudges against the World Government, and who knows, with a little instigation, they might turn to the embrace of the Revolutionary Army and bear their weapons against the World Government.
That’s why Doflamingo must be the King!
This is a signal that the World Government is sending to the Allied Kingdom members, assuring them that as long as they are the nation lords of Allied Kingdom members, they will be safe and the World Government and the Marines would remain indifferent to their crimes.
It’s meant to calm their hearts.
However, without the Shichibukai status, it will be inevitable for Doflamingo, a mere pirate, to face criticism for being the King of an Allied Kingdom member. It will also bring more harm than benefit to the World Government.
At the same time, his Shichibukai status must be revoked; no one dares to let Doflamingo continue serving as a Shichibukai.
The World Government vividly remembers how he became a Shichibukai, and they were cautious and alert from the start. After struggling to find an excuse, there’s no way they would let him continue in that role.
So, Rowen’s Mission has arrived. Sengoku has instructed him to follow Doflamingo to Dressrosa and conduct a…
“Risk Assessment?!”
Rowen touched the appointment letter that was pinned down by the document and smiled mischievously. “Listen to this, didn’t I say it?”
“How can Marine’s actions be called illegal plundering?”
…
Half a month later, a Pirate Ship flying the Donquixote Family Pirates flag docked at the Bay Port of G-10 Marine Branch.
Without saying a word, the Marine soldiers immediately picked up their weapons and aimed at the entire group descending from the ship.
“Fufufufu! Quite a special welcome from the G-10 Branch. Are you planning to attack me, the Allied Kingdom Member King, Vice Admiral Rowen…?”
Doflamingo’s voice carried no hint of delight as he coldly questioned. By his side, the released High-Level executive Diamante’s cape danced in the air, confronting the surrounding Marines.
The familiar laughter exerted immense pressure on the Marines Soldiers present here. They held a low rank and couldn’t comprehend why a pirate who attacked their base was released, let alone brazenly appeared at the G-10 Branch once again.
However, when they saw the calm and towering figure standing at the harbor, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Vice Admiral Rowen was there, they had nothing to fear!
What about Doflamingo?
What about the Heavenly Yaksha?
He is just a defeated pirate!
No matter how strong he was, Vice Admiral Rowen is still stronger!!
Rowen stood quietly in his place, motioning Dante to calm down as he released a smoke ring from his mouth.
“Are you sure you want to be this arrogant here, Doflamingo…”
“Don’t forget, until the Risk Assessment is complete, you… are still a pirate.”
Gē Zhī!!
The veins on Doflamingo’s forehead instantly bulged into the shape of a “十,” and he gnashed his teeth with a grinding sound. His body, wrapped in bandages, exuded an extremely chilling killing intent, and he looked like a beast ready to devour its prey.
However, after a moment, his expression softened, and he smiled at Rowen.
“You’re right…”
“So, for this Risk Assessment, I’ll trouble you, Vice Admiral Rowen!”
“Fufufufu!” He burst into laughter!
Although he was laughing, the anger in Doflamingo’s tone could be heard even by fools. Rowen had already made his position clear. He wanted to pass this Risk Assessment…
And Dofalmingo knows what that means.
…
Perhaps some people don’t understand why a “Risk Assessment” is being conducted on Doflamingo. The reason is actually quite simple…
An Allied Kingdom Member cannot be a pirate!
That’s all there is to it.
This is the compromise between the Marines, the World Government, the Celestial Dragons… and Doflamingo.
The World Government will never allow a mere pirate to become an Allied Kingdom Member, so they need a suitable reason to strip Doflamingo of his pirate status.
For this purpose, the “Risk Assessment” system was established.
This is another aberration born out of the dirty politics of compromise and negotiation!
After the Risk Assessment, the bounties on Doflamingo and the entire Donquixote Pirate crew will be revoked, and they will be cleansed of their past and become ordinary people.
This operation is not uncommon. Many notorious pirates have become Kings within the Allied Kingdom Members after undergoing a “Risk Assessment.”
As long as the Allied Kingdom Members obey the rule of the World Government without causing trouble, the Gorosei (Five Elder Stars) don’t care what they do…
As long as they are willing to offer sufficient benefits to them, this remains just a formality.
The purpose of Sengoku sending Rowen is also for this reason.
Since the outcome is already predetermined, it depends on how Rowen can strike and threaten Doflamingo, making him unable, or even incapable, of opposing the World Government.
Naturally, the only condition for the “Risk Assessment” is that Doflamingo doesn’t want to be locked up forever in Impel Down. Otherwise, if he smashes the jar too hard, everything becomes meaningless.
Fortunately, in this regard…
Doflamingo’s will to survive is extremely strong!!
On the battleship’s deck, Rowen sat back on a beach chair, basking in the sun, feeling somewhat sentimental.
“Fleet Admiral’s move is really clever!”
“Have you calculated the funds needed for our Branch reconstruction, Dante?”
Beside him, Dante diligently practiced his Sword techniques on the deck, sweating profusely. When faced with Rowen’s question, he thought for a moment before answering.
“The preliminary estimate has been completed. The Aircraft Force reconstruction requires 1,300,000,000 Belly, and the fortress and port reconstruction require 2,000,000,000,000 Belly…”
“A total of 5,000,000,000,000 Belly. We can’t go any lower…”
13 + 20 = 50?
No problem!
“10,000,000,000,000!”
Suddenly, Dante heard Rowen say that.
“Ah?!”
“Yes 10,000,000,000,000 Belly, no discussion!”
Rowen took a sip of his juice, feeling refreshed, and shivered, causing Dante, who was parched and out of breath, to turn red with envy, wishing he could charge up and cut him down with a sword.
