Rob got the Op-Op fruit, completing his main goal of coming to North Blue.
Then next -
Naturally, he will enjoy his travels in North Blue. At the same time, he will take Robin to look for traces of historical text steles, and take Uta to see more and learn the folk singing style of North Blue!
During this process, two months passed.
On an island in North Blue.
Home of the new headquarters of the Donquixote Family.
Doflamingo looked gloomy.
Blue veins popped up on his forehead:
"The Barrels Pirates disappeared in North Blue? Probably already on the sea, they were defeated! There was not even a single life left... In this way, the news of Op-Op Fruit's whereabouts, we lost once again."
"I am unwilling to accept! Why? Such a careful plan, so close to the Op-Op Fruit, why did it just disappear from my hands! Who is it? Dare to destroy my plan!"
Seeing the furious Doflamingo, even the cadres of the Donquixote Family dared not talk too much in front of him. Only the most senior cadres who are regarded as family members by Doflamingo dared to speak at this time.
A long time passed.
After Doflamingo's mood stabilized, Trebol spoke:
"Doffy, I have a suspect!"
Everyone's eyes were on Trebol, curious about who he suspected. Not everyone has the guts to mess with their family's things in North Blue!
Hearing what Trebol said, after Doflamingo had calmed down and stabilized his emotions, a figure flashed in his mind instantly. Without waiting for Trebol to reveal the identity of that person, he was the first to grit his teeth and say:
"Rob!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment and subconsciously thought of the one who was frequently mentioned in the family information recently - "the world's number one swordsman" - Rob, and his two younger sisters, Robin and "Little Diva" - Uta!
Trebol said:
"It's him! According to the information we got before—whether it was in the Grand Line, or in West Blue, or when he first became famous in East Blue, one pirate group after another was cleared out by him!
"That situation is similar to the disappearance of the Barrels Pirates this time. It seems they disappeared out of thin air, but most of them were found out later, and they told who eliminated them!"
There was a pause.
Trebol continued:
"And Diez Barrels was in the human trafficking business... This kind of pirate group is what he hates the most! Whenever they appear in front of him, he never leaves anyone alive. It fits well with the disappearance of the Barrels Pirates this time!"
Snapped--
Covering his face with one hand, the blue veins on Doflamingo's face and arms gradually bulged. He opened his mouth and began to laugh gradually, and then laughed louder, crazier, and more ferocious.
"Fufufufu hahaha..."
Doflamingo had a grim expression on his face:
"Rob! Rob! Rob!!!"
At this moment, Doflamingo was roaring, in a state of rage, almost losing all reason.
However, his brain told Doflamingo very clearly, don't say there is no evidence, even if there is evidence, he is powerless to face Rob, a very difficult opponent!
He only visited him once.
Doflamingo knew very well that there was a huge gap between him and Rob, and there was nothing he could do to the other party. Even if he had evidence, he would not dare to question Rob face to face!
After a long time.
After Doflamingo calmed down again, he spoke directly:
"Pass this matter through the underground world! Pass it to the major forces, and also pass it on to the World Government and Marine, but it must be noted that this news cannot be known to come from us!"
After hearing Doflamingo's order, all the senior cadres of the Donquixote Family took orders seriously, and then continued to work one after another.
Wait until everyone has left.
Doflamingo's suppressed anger rose again.
The eyes under the sunglasses were full of resentment and ultimate malice:
"Rob, you will regret fighting against me! Sooner or later, this sea will not be able to accommodate you as a 'heretic'. Just wait! The more things you do, the more people will not see you alone!"
"I'm waiting for the day when you fall into the abyss, and when that day comes, all our accounts will be settled! Hmm..."
The sea will never allow such a "free", "unfettered", and "do whatever you want" guy to exist.
Rob is very powerful, few people want to provoke him.
But Doflamingo is not convinced.
He doesn't thinks Rob—
Can be so invincible that he can suppress the entire sea with his own power!
Impossible.
This is absolutely impossible!
After a few days.
Grand Line Marine Headquarters—
Inside Fleet Admiral Sengoku's office.
Sengoku, the Buddha, with toad glasses on his face, looked at the information he got from the black market in his hand.
With serious colors on his face:
"Op-Op Fruit, was obtained by that Rob? Has this news been confirmed?"
Hearing Sengoku's inquiry.
Vice Admiral Tsuru, who was only in her sixties now, shook her head as she brought the information to Sengoku.
She opened her mouth and said:
"How can this kind of information be confirmed? Where was the Barrels Pirates destroyed? Was it destroyed by Rob? It is completely impossible to confirm! And in the final analysis, the news about the Op-Op Fruit being with the Barrels Pirates is also unconfirmed!"
"So how can it be confirmed that the Op-Op Fruit is in the hands of those siblings? I even suspect that the reason this news is being spread is because the person who actually got the Op-Op Fruit did so on purpose!"
"The purpose is to divert attention, so as not to be suspected! Although there is no way to verify it, and there is no evidence to prove it, but I think that this news is likely to be released by that 'Heavenly Yaksha'—Doflamingo!"
"In the entire North Blue, only Doflamingo would dare to do such a thing to provoke the siblings."
Hearing the words, Sengoku narrowed his eyes and nodded in approval:
"There is indeed this possibility! After all, the Barrels Pirates used him as an intermediary to sell to the government! He was blackmailed, and then he framed the person who took the Op-Op Fruit as Rob, like something he would do!"
"Afterwards, I will confirm the source of this news, whether it really came from the Donquixote Family. As long as I find out this, I can confirm whether the Op-Op Fruit may be in the hands of Doflamingo."
If Doflamingo were here, or if he knew the conjectures of Vice Admiral Tsuru and Sengoku, his scalp would definitely tingle with worry. The Marine was getting closer to the truth.
His title in the underground world is the clown "Joker," and the analysis of Vice Admiral Tsuru and Sengoku directly makes him close to becoming a real clown.
Back to the main topic.
Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't ask Sengoku how to confirm the source of the news. After all, things like spies are all connected through a single line.
She quickly changed the subject and asked:
"Then... what about them? Do you want to ask? The Five Elders should not give up any news about the Op-Op Fruit!"
After rubbing the center of his forehead with a headache, Sengoku spoke again:
"Let's leave it to the CP organization of the World Government to determine this matter! Rob and his sisters have no conflicts with our Marine, nor have they had any communication. The previous invitation to join the Marine also failed!"
"Wherever they go now, the stability of the sea follows them for a short time. There is no need for someone like him now, so it is better for the Marine to not push them too hard."
"So, as I said, I will leave it to the CP organization! The Five Elders should be able to understand it!"
To this—
Vice Admiral Tsuru had no comments.
After chatting again for a while, Vice Admiral Tsuru left.
Before leaving, she spoke again:
"Maybe I'm overthinking it! But I still want to say—the existence of the Rob is always a huge potential threat. Although I don't know their real purpose, to say that they are really traveling around the world... Sengoku, do you believe it?"
Sengoku shook his head, his eyes flashing with seriousness:
"I don't believe it either! It's just that—as long as they don't reveal their ambitions for a day, then Rob will still be seen as partner of justice.
"Will the guy who can become friends with the Red Hair Pirates really be a free person with pure intentions?
"This guy is definitely harboring evil intentions!"
Sengoku is no fool.
Of course, he wouldn't believe it either!
Only—
Just like Crocodile's secret action to capture Alabasta, before it is exposed, even if the Marine and World Government know that he has another purpose, they will not stop the same.
As long as it is not exposed, there will be no problem!
It doesn't matter what purpose they have, as long as they are not exposed for a day, then they will still be seen as partners of justice, and it is impossible for him to do anything to them!
Although a hypocrite is hateful, if he can be a hypocrite all his life until he dies, then a hypocrite is also a good person.
This is also a righteous compromise made by Sengoku!
"You know what's in your heart."
After hearing Sengoku's answer, Vice Admiral Tsuru had a clear expression on her face, and then left leisurely.
Regarding this time, the Barrels Pirates were destroyed, and then a series of events related to the Op-Op Fruit were triggered. It was temporarily brought to an end along with the uncertainty of whose hands the Op-Op Fruit fell into.
Follow-up problems, when they appear later, will be dealt with accordingly.

North Blue.
An ordinary island, an ordinary town.
now--
But something unusual is happening!
Rob and his sister just arrived on this small island and entered the town. Before they could even explore, a group of people from the underground world, including sea pirates, bounty hunters, and others, formed an alliance and attacked them!
It was loud when they started.
But they died quickly.
One after another, their throats were slashed, heads cut off, or bodies split in half. The dead bodies were scattered on the central street and various other streets of the small town.
In Rob's hand was a bounty hunter whose arm and thigh had been severed.
With calm eyes, Rob said:
"Tell me--"
"You rats, bounty hunters, and even pirates and bandits in the underground stinking ditch, why did you attack us? I remember that we, brother and sister, don't have bounties from the Marines, and in the underground world, there were no bounties on us either!"
Hearing Rob's inquiry, the bounty hunter in his hands looked fearful and regretful. Trembling, he quickly explained the reason for besieging the three siblings.
A mysterious person informed the entire underground world that the Op-Op Fruit, which is said to grant "eternal life," and which even the World Government is willing to bid five billion berries for, is now in his hands.
"I see--"
Rob raised his eyebrows, his eyes cold:
"Because of the allure of 'eternal life' and the massive wealth of 5 billion berries, even scumbags and weaklings like you dared to attack me! The rewards are truly tempting!"
After hearing what Rob said, the bounty hunter's face was full of regret and pleading:
"I've told you everything I know! Please forgive me! I was blinded by greed and offended you, my lord! Please forgive me... Ah!!!"
His words were cut off.
An extremely terrifying purple lightning burst out from Rob's hand, and the terrifying current easily surpassed one billion volts. In just a few seconds, the bounty hunter's body was turned into charcoal.
After killing the last attacker, Rob's right hand turned Shinto, and he put his sword back into its sheath.
Rob's eyes were thoughtful.
Finally, he smirked:
"The person who spread the news...is undoubtedly Doflamingo!"
Although he had no evidence, Rob was sure that the person who spread this news must be Doflamingo. There was no one else but him, the clown of the underground world.
And he never needs evidence to do things!
The principle of doubting nothing does not work here.
Anyway, he just thinks that Doflamingo caused this matter, so it must be Doflamingo, it must be him if it is not him!
Relying on his intuition, he pinned this matter on Doflamingo completely unreasonably.
Rob touched his hair and said:
"Start from North Blue, bit by bit, clean up all of Doflamingo's forces! Doflamingo has really given me a big headache!"
If he's being watched for a long time, although he isn't worried about safety, situations like today will definitely affect his future travels! After all, he isn't a butcher who likes to kill wherever he goes!
Soon, Rob returned directly to the Angel, where Robin and Uta, who were guarding the ship, came to Rob's side.
Robin, with doubt on her face and questioning in her eyes, asked:
"Oni-chan, how's the situation?"
Rob nodded and smiled, saying:
"The situation is probably already understood! Someone spread the news in the underground world, saying that the Op-Op Fruit is in our hands! Therefore, a large number of greedy people have been attracted, wanting to snatch the Op-Op Fruit from us!"
"It's not a big problem! It's just that it affects our sailing trip mood!"
After hearing Rob explain why, Robin breathed a sigh of relief but then frowned:
"Then next—shall we change our sailing plan?"
Rob shook his head, looking casual:
"It's not necessary, it's just a school of fish!"
"Just as before, we'll kill more batches, or even dozens of batches if needed. As long as enough people die, those who are temporarily blinded by greed will wake up. Our sailing plan remains unaffected!"
"But I'm not someone who swallows my anger after being schemed against. I'll add a plan to our next travel plan—to destroy all the forces of the Donquixote Family."
There was a pause, and then Rob had a mischievous smile on his face:
"Since he has taken action against us, Doflamingo will have to pay the price! I'll slowly make him feel real powerlessness and despair! If you provoke me, there will be no good outcome for you!"
Hearing Rob's words, Robin nodded, showing her approval. Under Rob's influence, she also developed a vengeful character when it came to enemies. Uta, on the other hand, didn't care much about these matters and remained indifferent.
The events in this town and the rewards offered in the underground world were just a small episode for the three siblings, Rob, Robin, and Uta! It didn't affect their voyage in North Blue!
The first month of their voyage continued—
This was the most troublesome month!
Almost every new island or town had people who weren't afraid of death attacking the three siblings. Each time, Rob would set off a massacre, affecting at least hundreds of people. Regardless of whether the enemy was an unknown soldier or a long-established master of North Blue, all of them died under Rob's sword!
In just one month, Rob's killings in North Blue reached as many as five or six thousand!
During this month, Rob did as he promised, bloodbath the big and small strongholds of the Donquixote Family and destroy all records of their cooperation wherever he went!
At the same time, with the help of some survivors who were deliberately let go, and Morgans' World Economic Newspaper, Rob broadcasted to all the forces related to the Donquixote Family in the entire North Blue, and even other sea areas:
"My revenge may come late, but it will definitely come!"
Of course, to prevent himself from becoming the enemy of the entire underground world, Rob made his own promise: as long as they broke off all cooperation with Doflamingo, he would let bygones be bygones and stop the bloodshed.
Rob also used Morgans' newspaper to explain to everyone the justifiable reasons for his actions...
All of this was a vendetta against the pirate "Heavenly Yaksha" and the underground intermediary "Joker" who had obtained the Op-Op Fruit and then framed him. His mission was to make sure they completely disappeared from the sea.
Such a declaration—
It was crazy, dark, and bloody. Many people found it unbelievable and completely impossible!
So, those who first read the newspaper thought it was a joke or dismissed it entirely.
An announcement to the world?
This brat—
Does he know how huge the world is? Does he know how terrifying the darkness of this world is? Does he think that with a "world's number one swordsman" title, he can do whatever he wants?
Innocent.
It's really naive.
But soon, these people's initial disdainful thoughts changed.
As several major forces that had been entrenched in North Blue for many years were uprooted by Rob, bloodbathed, and slaughtered by him, their opinions shifted dramatically!
Especially during this process—
After Rob ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the ability of which had never been shown to the world before, he revealed its power for the first time. With a single blow, he easily annihilated all the enemies on an entire island.
Doflamingo, realizing the gravity of the situation, quickly withdrew the entire Donquixote Family from North Blue and entered the Grand Line.
Everyone realized—
This boy is playing for real!
As Rob demonstrated his abilities and followed through on his threats, the world felt their scalps go numb, filled with fear and timidity as they personally witnessed Rob's madness!
His world-renowned swordsmanship.
The powerful Conqueror's Haki known across the seas.
Now, coupled with the destructive, natural disaster-level power of the Logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Rob had become the most comprehensive, nearly "invincible" force!
The world—
Re-acquainted itself with Rob, the young top of the sea, born to be a monster of strength!
When many bigwigs in the world, even many ordinary people, started to fear Rob's power, Rob once again used Morgans' World Economic Newspaper to speak out.
And Morgans, respecting Rob's influence, gave him a headline—
[I, Rob, hereby shout to Donquixote Doflamingo, to the world—]
[I lost my parents when I was a child, and then sailed on the sea with my two younger sisters. Our goal, from beginning to end, was just to see the world's scenery. We never wanted to offend anyone!]
[I'm just a fifteen-year-old boy with some strength, with two younger sisters, wanting to travel freely in North Blue. What did we do wrong? Why frame our brothers and sisters like this?]
[Framing three dependent children like this, and offering a high price for our lives in the underground world, Donquixote Doflamingo—won't your conscience ache?]
[This world—is there still law? Is there still light? Is there still justice?]
