"You can't be kidding, right? That's one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Joker of the underworld! How could he be killed so suddenly?!"
"incredible……"
"Who did this? One of the Four Emperors or the Navy?!"
"It's not clear yet, but there seems to be a rumor that it was done by the former Navy Admiral, Black Arm Zephyr."
“Zeff... that old man is indeed a possibility. Doesn't he have a grudge against Doflamingo?”
"But... can an elderly Zephyr really destroy the entire Don Quixote family?"
"Dressrosa was actually stolen by Doflamingo. He really has some nerve."
"I just have one question: if Doflamingo dies, does that mean the position of one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea will be vacant?"
……
When the members of the underground forces heard the news, they were not only incredulous but also furious.
"Are you kidding me?! That Joker is dead?! I just ordered a huge batch of weapons from him, and now he's dead?! Who am I supposed to get the goods from?!"
"I just ordered three artificial Devil Fruits, which cost a whopping 300 million Berries!"
"How could I possibly accept this, you bastard! Why did he suddenly die? What am I going to do about all my businesses?!"
"We're about to launch a war against our neighbor, and all we're missing is that shipment of weapons. Looks like we're not going to get them... Damn it!!"
"Who did this?!"
"I heard it's that old bastard Zephyr."
"That former Marine Admiral Zephyr... Damn it, that old bastard! Why isn't he dead yet!"
……
The news, once it spread from the New World, immediately shook the entire ocean and land, attracting worldwide attention.
……
The first half of the Grand Line.
"Captain, Bepo has fallen into the sea!"
Shaki rushed to the deck, only to find Luo sitting there, carrying a long sword, staring at the newspaper in his hand, his pupils wide with disbelief, and he was completely inaudible.
"Then, that Doflamingo... is dead?!"
is that a lie!
That bastard is someone I absolutely have to kill!
How could he die at someone else's hands like this?!
……
Daughter Island.
Empress Hancock didn't seem too concerned when she heard the news, casually asking, "Who did this?"
"The information is still uncertain. It's highly likely to be former Navy Admiral Black Arm Zephyr, but some people have also spotted the Traveler Ron in Dressrosa... Is it him again?"
Grandma looked at the newspaper in her hand and said.
Hancock's beautiful eyes flashed when she heard that name:
"Let's hear the details."
……
"A black slash that tears through the sky of Dressrosa, cleaving through the darkness..."
Hawkeye lay on his small coffin boat, staring at the newspaper in his hand, his sharp, eagle-like eyes gleaming slightly.
…………
Naval Headquarters.
Doflamingo is dead?!
Garp and Tsuru were both quite astonished by Sengoku's words.
"what happened?"
"The specifics are still unclear, but according to Aokiji's report, Zephyr seems to be in Dressrosa and has admitted that he was responsible for Doflamingo's death and the downfall of the Donquixote Family."
Zhan Guo said in a deep voice.
Garp and Tsuru's expressions froze.
"Did Zephyr really make it?"
Crane Chao asked about the Warring States period.
"It's not certain yet." Sengoku lowered his head, his round-framed glasses gleaming coldly. "But there is one thing that is very important to note."
"what?"
Sengoku looked up at the two of them, his voice low and deep: "On the day the incident occurred in Dressrosa, witnesses saw the traveler Ron, Zephyr, and Ain walking together on the streets of Dressrosa..."
Lieutenant General He's expression turned slightly solemn.
Garp frowned and said, "This matter is also related to that kid? Isn't he being chased by Kizaru and Aokiji?"
"He arrived in Dressrosa while on the run. Aokiji and Kizaru also went to Dressrosa to capture him."
Crane stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "You mean Zephyr and Ron had arranged to go to Dressrosa together beforehand?"
"Well, that possibility cannot be ruled out."
Sengoku stood up: "The two of them have every reason to work together against Doflamingo. You should both remember what happened back then."
"Of course I didn't forget it."
Garp picked his nose: "Wasn't it that incident that made Zephyr completely disillusioned with the Navy back then? If the Navy had made a relatively fair decision back then, the situation might be different now..."
"Garp!"
The crane called out, interrupting him.
Garp glanced at Sengoku, then said nothing more.
Zhan Guo returned to his seat, crossed his arms, and remained silent.
There was complete silence between the three of them.
…………
Upon learning of this news, CP0, the World Government's top intelligence agency, immediately rushed to Dressrosa to gather the most accurate intelligence on the matter.
Soon, a detailed and accurate intelligence report was delivered to the Five Elders of the Mary Geoise World Government.
"Has that eyesore finally been killed?"
"Although it was somewhat unexpected and abrupt, the result is a good thing for us."
"That's right, that arrogant brat used the secrets he knew to blackmail us, he should have died long ago."
"But it was Zephyr and that Ron who killed him. It wouldn't be good if those two got together."
"It's unlikely that Zephyr would become a criminal."
"It's hard to say."
"In my opinion, it would be better to leave this matter to the navy to judge and handle."
"I agree."
"can."
……
……
While the entire ocean was in utter shock because of what happened in Dressrosa.
On a deserted island in the new world.
A series of enormous rumbling sounds continued to echo beyond the island.
Earth-shaking.
The entire uninhabited island shook violently, and huge cracks spread outwards.
With a tremendous roar, the entire uninhabited island was shattered!
Ron, holding the 'Firestorm' Jhin, who had reverted to human form but whose body was smashed, mangled, and completely unrecognizable as human, emerged from a deep pit in a fragment of an island.
His eyes were closed, his black hair was flowing, his body was covered in blood, and he was holding Jin's head in his right hand as he flew into the sky.
164, Armament Haki Stage 3, Ryuo!
When Ron flew over from the distant sea.
Someone spotted him through binoculars aboard the multinational vessel still anchored in the waters below the floating ship.
"Minister of Biscuits, that, that one is..."
