<><><><><><>
The next day, at the Dressrosa Palace, Doflamingo paced back and forth, exuding an intimidating aura that warned others to keep their distance.
Seeing their Young Master so anxious, the executives of the Donquixote Family didn't dare to make a sound, fearing they might provoke him at this critical moment.
Doflamingo's unease had been growing over the past few days, and with no word from Trebol and Diamante since the previous night, his agitation only worsened.
Could something have happened? Typically, they would receive a timely report after completing a transaction.
But now, not a single call or piece of news has come through. This was a deal with the Beast Pirates.
Could they have double-crossed us? Given the Beast Pirates' notorious reputation, it wasn't out of the realm of possibility.
But without discovering Caesar's island or the technology to produce artificial Devil Fruits, why would Kaido dare?
As for the possibility of the Marines uncovering their transaction, Doflamingo quickly dismissed the idea.
The Marines generally didn't meddle in the affairs of the Seven Warlords.
Even if they did find out, he wasn't too concerned; the Celestial Dragons also restrained the Marines.
As long as he held onto the secrets of the Celestial Dragons' treasures, they wouldn't move against him.
"Young Master..." Buffalo's voice suddenly broke through Doflamingo's thoughts from the doorway. Buffalo, a user of the Spin-Spin Fruit, could fly like a propeller.
When Doflamingo hadn't received any updates the previous night, he sent Buffalo to investigate.
Seeing Buffalo's anxious expression, Doflamingo's heart sank—something must have gone wrong. After catching his breath, Buffalo finally spoke.
"Young Master, something happened to Trebol and the others!" Upon hearing this confirmation, Doflamingo's earlier anxiety transformed into a chilling calm.
With a sad face, he asked, "Tell me everything about the situation on the island. Don't leave out any details."
"When I arrived at Gill Island last night, I found many large holes in the ground and over two hundred severed bodies. Among them, I discovered..." Buffalo paused, glancing cautiously at Doflamingo.
With a trembling voice, Doflamingo demanded, "What did you find?"
Buffalo gritted his teeth and replied, "I found Trebol's body."
As soon as Buffalo said the words, an invisible pressure erupted from Doflamingo, suddenly causing dark clouds to cover the once-clear sky and cast a shadow over Dressrosa.
The chairs in the hall cracked under the pressure, some splitting in two. All the executives kneeled, trembling, before Doflamingo.
They knew that Trebol had been the first to recognize Doflamingo's potential for greatness when he was just a child, willingly becoming his first subordinate at the age of nine and playing a crucial role in forming the Donquixote Family.
To Doflamingo, Trebol was not just a trusted lieutenant but a godfather-like figure. But now Trebol was dead, cut in half by a single blow.
How could Doflamingo not be enraged? With a cold voice, Doflamingo asked, "Was this the work of the Beast Pirates?"
Buffalo, with his head pressed to the ground, replied,
"It shouldn't be. Although we didn't find Jack's body, we did discover the corpses of Ginrummy and Sheepshead, both cut down by a single blow."
If it wasn't the Beast Pirates double-crossing them, it must have been the Marines.
Near the Sabaody Archipelago, the biggest force was indeed the Marines. This meant that things were becoming increasingly complicated...
In the New World, on an unnamed desolate island, a man as massive as a mountain sat cross-legged by a campfire.
In a deep voice, he asked, "Are you saying that our deal with that little brat Doflamingo was uncovered by the Marines and that Jack is now in their hands?"
Standing before Kaido, 'Fire Calamity' King, one of the three All-Stars like Jack, replied with frustration,
"I confirmed it with Doflamingo. The information is accurate."
As soon as King finished speaking, Kaido hurled a gourd as large as a two-story building.
With a thunderous crash, countless rocks tumbled down the mountainside, causing the entire island to tremble.
"Are the Marines provoking the Beast Pirates?" Kaido roared, his two long black whiskers swinging like serpents.
"King, gather everyone. If the Marines dare to touch Jack, they'll face my wrath!"
King sighed helplessly at Kaido's manic demeanor. Kaido's history of escaping Marine capture eighteen times showed he didn't fear them.
But Kaido was Kaido; not everyone in the Beast Pirates was a monster like him. Over two-thirds of the Beast Pirates wouldn't survive if they attacked Marine Headquarters.
For the crew's sake, King tried to reason with him, "Boss Kaido, there's no need to rush to rescue Jack."
Kaido glared at King. "What do you mean?"
King continued, "After capturing Jack, the Marines, adhering to their policy of imprisoning rather than killing, will likely hold him in Impel Down."
"We can set an ambush along the route to Impel Down and rescue Jack when the ship transporting him passes by.
"This approach would increase our chances of success and minimize our casualties."
Although Kaido often appeared dim-witted, he was shrewder than most.
His earlier willingness to attack Marine Headquarters for Jack was to show his loyalty to his crew.
Now that King proposed a plan that aligned with his true intentions, he had no reason to refuse.
Kaido pretended to ponder deeply before agreeing, "All right, to reduce our losses, we'll do it your way."
"To ensure the plan's success, summon Queen. I'll also join the operation to show the Marines the price of provoking the Beast Pirates!"
To deceive the Marines, Kaido ordered numerous pirate crews under his command to relentlessly attack Marine bases in the New World.
The message was clear: if the Marines didn't release his brother, he would slaughter them all.
