Capítulo 76: Chapter 76: Pick Joins
"What?!"
"That's right, both Rosinante and I are 'Celestial Dragons'."
Back at the "Rose Mansion," after Rosinante set up a silence barrier, Doflamingo revealed their explosive identities. The others were so shocked that their jaws practically dropped to the ground, even Jola, who had always been composed.
"Celestial Dragons... give me a moment,"
After covering her forehead, Jola took a few deep breaths before opening her eyes.
"I thought leaving the country to become a pirate was crazy enough, but I didn't expect that we'd end up being Celestial Dragons..."
"It's not like we chose this ourselves,"
Rosinante shrugged. Even if he had ended up in the Holy Land after his time travel, he would have found a way to leave.
After all, many of the actions of the Celestial Dragons challenged the moral boundaries of humanity.
"Hahaha, that's right."
"Our naive 'father,' who abandoned his Celestial Dragon status."
"Attempting to live as a commoner? It's laughable!"
Doflamingo, seated at the head of the hall, laughed maniacally.
"Soon, our identities were discovered by those around us, and then crazed mobs swarmed—"
Jola covered the lower half of her face with her hand, and Trebol and the others grew serious.
They could already guess the subsequent developments.
In this world, the general perception of Celestial Dragons was filled with fear, envy, jealousy, hatred... So when word got out that a 'Celestial Dragon' had fallen from grace, the resulting darkness knew no bounds.
"For the first time, Rosinante and I experienced hunger, pain, and despair!"
"Our mother died from hunger, illness, and fleeing."
After finishing, Doflamingo looked around at the people present, his gaze passing over those in attendance one by one: Trebol, Diamante, Vergo, Pica, Jola, Pick...
"So, I personally shot that incompetent father!"
??
"Holding his head, I intended to return to Mary Geoise."
?!
"But I was expelled and ended up wandering with Rosinante in the North Sea..."...
The hall fell silent for a moment, prompting Rosinante to clap his hands to break the heavy atmosphere.
"Hey, don't all have such serious faces."
"In my opinion, life now is better than being 'raised' in the Holy Land... No, raised like pigs."
"If you want something, use your own hands to get it; if you want to do something, you have to do it yourself. Life like this has meaning."
...
"I didn't expect Doflamingo and Rosinante to have such a past."
Trebol scratched his head, still trying to recover from the shock of learning that his leader was a 'Celestial Dragon.'
"Wuhahaha~~"
Diamante was the first to burst into laughter.
"I knew it, Doflamingo and Rosinante are destined to be the 'kings' of men, with extraordinary identities."

In this world, the concept of "bloodline superiority" runs deep.
"What are you saying? The Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land number in the hundreds if not a thousand."
"I've taken down those fat pigs one by one. Doflamingo and I have our current strength through our own efforts."
While Rosinante acknowledged that the Celestial Dragon bloodline was indeed exceptional, compared to those fat pigs in Mary Geoise, it was an insult to the hardships he had faced throughout his journey!
"That's right,"
Vergo nodded, agreeing with Rosinante.
"The strength of Doflamingo and Rosinante comes from their hard training,"
"We've all seen it. It has nothing to do with being Celestial Dragons."
"It's more accurate to say that the identity of being 'Celestial Dragons' will only bring us trouble."
Rosinante opened his hands, taking over the conversation.
"In the past, the two of us were hunted down and reduced to scavenging. If it weren't for Doflamingo awakening 'Conqueror's Haki,' we would have been strung up and burnt to cinders long ago."
"Hmph, we'll definitely repay everything those guys did to us!"
Thinking about the beatings, burnings, and torment they had endured, Doflamingo and even Rosinante felt a surge of anger.
Rosinante considered himself a person with limits, but wrongs had a source, debts had a debtor. Since those 'commoners' could vent their anger towards the Celestial Dragons without any distinction, don't blame the future revenge of the Donquixote brothers.
"Rest assured, there will be a chance."
Regarding the past grudges, Rosinante had long made plans. Once the right time came, he would make those who had hurt them in the past experience what true despair felt like.
"Forget about those unhappy matters. Let me tell you something even more despairing."
??
Wasn't it supposed to be good news?
Others couldn't help but complain.
"Due to having once abandoned our 'Celestial Dragon' status, Doflamingo and I are seen as traitors by the Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land. Once they learn of our existence, they'll undoubtedly send people to hunt us down."
??
"Understand? Compared to CP3, the pursuit by the Celestial Dragons is the most deadly."
After finishing, Rosinante stepped back next to Doflamingo.
"So, that's why I said it's us who are causing trouble for you—"
"Hey hey hey, we're the ones who chose to follow in your and Doflamingo's footsteps. Even if we die as a result, we can't blame anyone else."
Holding the cane Rosinante had given him in one hand and adjusting his top hat with the other, Trebol stated.
"Since you say I'm a genius, that's right! I don't care about being under mere Celestial Dragons... I don't even regard them!"
No, no one just said you were a genius, right? Diamante?
"From facing CP3 to the entire CP organization? They're all agents, and it doesn't seem like there's much difference."
Vergo nodded, a handkerchief stuck to his cheek at some point.
"I don't understand all these profound reasons. You say who needs to be beaten, and I'll beat them into pulp." Pica expressed that she was just an unfeeling fighting machine.
"Although I'd like to say, 'Violence only perpetuates hatred,' protecting one's own life is the most basic right of any person. And, the Celestial Dragons..."
Stepping forward, Jola's words resounded.
"The enemies of the Donquixote family are my enemies!"
...
"Cough, should I forget everything I heard just now—"
Different from the Torrebol Four and Jola, standing at the back, Pick, who Rosinante had pulled over, coughed as he clenched his fist.
"No need,"
Since Rosinante had brought Pick back, he naturally had a plan.
"Sineor Pick, I invite you to join the Donquixote family."
First, he took a few steps forward, seriously extending the invitation to Pick.
Saying that, Rosinante turned to face Doflamingo and the others.
"Although we haven't lived and interacted together, Pick has saved us twice."
The first time was in "Fantasy Land" Odensay.
If it weren't for Pick breaking the Den Den Mushi interference, calling the Marines to make the White Dragon Pirates retreat, Rosinante might have already been captured by Balph·Tani, Vergo might have been burnt to cinders, Jola's disposition might have changed due to the fall of her country...
The second time was the cube battle just now.
Perhaps Jola could have escaped with her "Art Fruit," but the rest of them would be in danger. Their Devil Fruit abilities weren't suitable for defense. Although they could withstand blades and bullets, facing a massive amount of explosives, it was hard to say whether they would survive...
"So, that's why I recommend Pick to join the Donquixote family. What do you all think?"
And Rosinante understood Pick's 'character' very well. He was one of the few true gentlemen in the world of pirates.
"I have no objections," "Agreed,"
"Agreed,"
"I'm the same,"
The Torrebol Four all nodded in agreement, Jola knew Pick from before, and if it weren't for Pick leaking the information about the upcoming pirate coalition attack on Odensay, they wouldn't have been able to last until the Marines intervened.
"Since it's Rosinante's recommendation, I have no objections."
With Doflamingo, who was seated at the main seat, also nodding, the Donquixote family welcomed its seventh member!
"I..."
Senor Pick, with his slightly curled black hair, could only smile wryly. Everyone in this hall had 'agreed' to his joining the Donquixote family, without asking for his opinion. But as long as Rosinante and Doflamingo didn't reveal his identity, they wouldn't be hunted by the Celestial Dragons.
However, as a traitor of CP3, Pick would undoubtedly be pursued to his death by the CP organization.
The investigation by the CP organization would likely expose Rosinante and Doflamingo's identities.
If they were "wise people," they wouldn't associate with him at all.
All the people present had agreed to his inclusion, and he didn't expect—or perhaps they didn't care about—the crisis he would bring?
Such comrades, or rather, family members, were quite good.
"Well, I'll join."
"From now on, please take care of me."

The next day,
"Donquixote family's banquet?"
"Yes, on the surface, it's because the mayor's dance two days ago was disrupted by 'hooligans,' so their family is hosting a replacement event."
In reality, however, the victorious Donquixote family, who had defeated CP3, was preparing to showcase their presence and power!
"Prepare carriages and formal wear, and tell them we will definitely attend."
Similar conversations played out repeatedly in the homes of the notable figures of Spadamaruz Town. Faced with the "invitation" from the Donquixote family, all the prominent figures readily accepted.
As the victors, who were stained with blood, prepared to display the power they had brutally established, who would dare not give face at this time? Moreover, even the low-profile mayor would attend, making it even less likely for others to be absent.
But... hopefully, there wouldn't be another battle this time.
For the "upper-class" individuals of this town, their first encounter with the "Donquixote family" was on "Big Bucks" Thompson's yacht.
Then, the other side suddenly launched an attack. After a life-or-death battle, the underground throne of Spadamaruz changed hands.
The other side went to sea for over a month and made a move in Odensay against the White Dragon Pirates. Shortly after returning to Spadamaruz, they clashed fiercely with CP agents at the mayor's residence.
As a result, CP agents from the entire Rafael Kingdom suffered heavy casualties. It's said that His Majesty the King ate three large bowls of food in happiness yesterday.
In the understanding of these well-informed nobles, prominent merchants, factory owners, and landowners, the rise of the Donquixote family was unstoppable. As long as they were willing, they could even immediately become nobles.
As long as they were a normal king, they would never think they had too much power in their hands.
————
"A banquet?"
In the sturdy building of the Blackwater Security Company, faced with the invitation handed over by "8674," a combatant in the shape of a governor, the old researcher "404," clad in a lab coat, short in stature, and with thinning hair, shook his head impatiently.
"How could I possibly attend such a waste of time?"
"If I have this energy, researching my 'Super Shocking Bomb' is the most important thing—"
"Mr. 404, the Donquixote family defeated CP3's agents a day ago. Among them were two high-ranking agents equivalent to B+ level, a large number of ordinary C-level agents, and over a thousand ordinary D-level soldiers..."
These ranks were Jellma 66's internal classifications. B+ level was equivalent to a Navy commander. Even in Jellma's military, it was already the level of a captain of a platoon.
"Oh?"
"I remember that the assessment of the Donquixote family members a month ago was between C and B-?"
"Yes, Mr. 404."
With the affirmative reply from "8674," the bald-headed old researcher with the number 404 put down the drawings in his hand. In just a short month, they had grown enough to defeat enemies two levels higher.
Those youngsters—
"Remarkable talent,"
"Alright, let's also attend the banquet tonight."
"If those kids really have become this much stronger, then recommending them to the family head isn't a bad idea."
Jellma 66... No, the ambition of the Vinsmoke family would need a significant number of strong individuals to have a chance of realization.
To rule over the entire North Blue!
