Chapter 149: Chapter 148 Question: Why was Rosinante exposed?
Luke's words continued during the live broadcast:
"So, the events that followed were quite simple. Doflamingo's family was burned, and they had to flee to escape the vengeful people. Having once lived a privileged life, Doflamingo and his family now had to scavenge for discarded food in the garbage. During this, their mother fell seriously ill. At this point, Doflamingo's father, Homing, realized his naivety and tried to seek help from the Tenryuubito. However, they were no longer Tenryuubito in their eyes. They were considered traitors who had betrayed their own kind, so their request was rejected. When they left Mariejois, their fate was already sealed. Although the World Government could have sent them to an allied country where the Tenryuubito were respected, they chose to place them in a non-allied country filled with hatred towards the Tenryuubito. Undoubtedly, this was an execution of traitors, accomplished by using the hands of the people from the non-allied countries. In the end, Doflamingo's mother died from her illness, and he, along with his father and brother, was captured. They were on the verge of being killed when Doflamingo awakened his Conqueror's Haki, stunning everyone and narrowly escaping the ordeal. Doflamingo blamed all the blame on his father, shooting and beheading Homing, carrying his head back to Mariejois and demanding to return to the group of Tenryuubito. However, his request was refused. Enraged, Doflamingo left Mariejois and returned to the North Blue, where he encountered the current executives and formed the Donquixote Family. At the same time, after witnessing Doflamingo killing their father, Rosinante chose to flee from Doflamingo. He happened to encounter Sengoku and was taken in by him, becoming a Marine. Later on, Sengoku adopted him as his foster son, treating him as if he were his own flesh and blood. As Doflamingo established his pirate crew and set sail, Rosinante, as an undercover Marine, returned to the Donquixote Family to prevent his brother's actions. He became one of the four executives of the Donquixote Family, under the name Corazon."
Upon hearing Rosinante's experiences, people's emotions were complex. On the one hand, they couldn't help but sympathize with their plight. After all, they hadn't done anything wrong themselves but were implicated due to their status as Tenryuubito. On the other hand, they were still Tenryuubito, and that identity didn't elicit favorable feelings. Moreover, they had also enjoyed the privileges of being Tenryuubito, so they couldn't completely absolve themselves.
The root cause of such an outcome was that the Tenryuubito didn't consider others as human, and the World Government didn't regard the people from non-allied countries as human either. This planted the seeds of calamity.
However, what surprised them greatly was the World Government's cunning method of using the people from non-allied countries to eliminate the traitors without doing anything themselves. It allowed the traitors' families to be destroyed, serving as a warning to those who came after.
Upon hearing about Doflamingo killing his own father and Rosinante's escape and subsequent undercover mission...
People couldn't help but marvel at how ruthless Doflamingo was at such a young age, surpassing even adults. He truly lived up to his later reputation as the Heavenly Yakhsa, Doflamingo.
The two brothers, one becoming a pirate and the other a Marine, and the younger brother trying to stop his pirate brother as a Marine. It was a testament to the workings of fate, which left people in awe.
They were curious about what happened next. Now that Doflamingo had become one of Shichibukai, what about his younger brother, Rosinante?
What happened to him after becoming an undercover agent?
...
At this moment, Doflamingo's face turned grim. Having his past exposed like this made him feel extremely miserable.
He had always displayed a rebellious and untamed demeanor. However, letting others see his painful past made his face look unsightly. He didn't need others' sympathy; all he wanted was awe, fear, and terror... that would be enough.
He didn't oppose Luke's claim that the World Government deliberately orchestrated everything.
In fact, he had long realized that the World Government intentionally placed them in non-allied countries intentionally. That was why he swore to overthrow the World Government and turn the world upside down.
The two root causes of everything he had suffered were the World Government and his father, Homing. He had already killed one of them; only one remained.
He would have to exact revenge sooner or later!
But now, he was more concerned about what Luke would ask next.
Because with the conclusion of the third question, the connection between the questions and him was growing closer. He could feel that if it continued, more things on his side would be exposed, which would be detrimental to him.
However, he couldn't do anything about it. He could only watch everything unfold helplessly, which made him extremely frustrated.
Doflamingo's face turned unpleasant, and his eyes behind the red sunglasses fixed coldly on Law and Luke in the live broadcast. The atmosphere suddenly became icy.
Luke looked at Law and said, "Now, let's proceed to the fourth question.
4thQuestion: How was Rosinante's identity as an undercover Marine exposed? You have one minute, and the timer starts now."
Instantly, cries of astonishment erupted worldwide. Exposed... Rosinante's undercover identity was exposed?
Didn't that mean Doflamingo now knew that his brother was an undercover agent?
At Marineford, Sengoku's expression became grave. Rosinante's identity had been exposed.
Now, the question arose: Did Rosinante's death have anything to do with the exposure of his identity?
If there is no connection, then he might have died during the battle for the Ope Ope no Mi.
But if there is a connection, then the answer is quite clear: he was killed by Doflamingo.
With Doflamingo killing his father before, Sengoku had no doubt that Doflamingo would personally kill Rosinante once he knew that his brother was an undercover agent.
If that was the case, then... anger started to gather in Sengoku's mind. His hands clenched tightly, veins bulging, and his eyes filled with fury. It all indicated one thing: he wanted to kill someone!
At the same time, Vergo's expression changed drastically. Something was wrong!
Others might not know how Rosinante's identity was exposed, but as the main party involved, he couldn't be unaware of it.
Once this matter was exposed, all his plans for over a decade would go down the drain.
He had worked hard to secure a position within the Marineford and reach the rank of Vice Admiral. How could he allow himself to be exposed for such a reason?
No!... Vergo widened his eyes as he looked at the screen.
Meanwhile, Law seemed to recall something that filled him with regret and resentment. His face expressed not only hatred towards others but also towards himself. He hated his own stupidity, which led to Rosinante's undercover identity being exposed.
Ultimately, it resulted in Rosinante's death.
Law answered with a composed face, "Answer: After spending two years in the Donquixote Family, knowing that my time was running out, Corazon took me out to sea in search of a renowned doctor who could treat the Amber Lead Syndrome. However, every doctor we encountered became frightened upon hearing about the syndrome and refused to come near me, let alone treat me. Six months passed, and no doctor was willing to save me. Gradually, I also started to give up and accept the reality. However, Corazon never gave up. He stayed by my side during those six months. Every time a doctor refused to help, he was the angriest, which filled my heart with gratitude and moved me. Just when I was waiting for my impending death, one incident reversed the fate of both Corazon and me. On that day, Corazon received a call from Doflamingo, who informed him that the Marines were planning to purchase the Ope Ope no Mi from pirates. Doflamingo intended to steal the fruit and hoped that Corazon would consume it afterward. Upon learning about the fruit, Corazon was ecstatic because having that fruit would mean curing my Amber Lead Syndrome. For that reason, Corazon decided to take the risk of offending Doflamingo, the Marines, and the World Government to acquire the fruit. Afterward, Corazon made another call to someone else. I don't know who it was, but I knew that person was a Marine. Through that person, Corazon learned about the Marine's plan. So, Corazon took me to Minion Island, intending to snatch the fruit from the pirates before the Marines and Doflamingo arrived."
Upon hearing this, Sengoku's face showed sadness and regret. If only he hadn't informed Rosinante about that information. If he hadn't, Rosinante wouldn't have appeared on Minion Island, and he wouldn't have died.
Law's face became pained, and he continued, "Afterward, three days before the transaction took place, we successfully arrived at Minion Island. Corazon managed to steal the fruit, but in the end, he suffered severe injuries. After I consumed the fruit, he couldn't move anymore. At that moment, Corazon gave me a crucial piece of information and asked me to deliver it to the Marines. He said that this information could save me and entrusted me with the task. To save Corazon, I put aside my hatred for the Marines and carried the information to find them, hoping to get reinforcements to save the injured Corazon. Soon, I encountered a Marine on the way and, as per Corazon's instructions, handed the information to him, begging him to save Corazon. However, that was the biggest mistake I made in my life. If only I hadn't taken that step back then. If only I had hesitated more!"
Law bit his lip, and blood trickled from his skin. Anyone could see the regret in his eyes.
Sengoku stared intensely at Law, feeling uneasy and eager to know. What had happened? What made Law so regretful?
Even though he found the Marines as reinforcements, why does he have such an expression?
Sengoku looked at Law anxiously, realizing that it must be closely related to Rosinante's death!
At this moment, Doflamingo's face turned pale. He glared angrily at the screen, knowing that in the next moment, his plans of over a decade would be ruined. However, he could only watch helplessly.
With a loud bang, Doflamingo's punch shattered the wall.
Helpless rage!
Doflamingo looked at the live broadcast with an unpleasant expression, as if facing judgment.
At the same time, in the G5 branch of the Grand Line, Vice Admiral Vergo was watching the broadcast on the square.
While everyone else was focused on the live broadcast, Vergo's face changed dramatically, and he quickly left the square.
The nearby Marines found it strange that Vice Admiral Vergo suddenly left. They asked what happened, called out to him, but received no response. In the blink of an eye, Vergo disappeared from the square.
In the next moment, everyone in the G5 branch seemed to be startled.
