125 End of a Nightmare

Step to step~

Law walked towards Donquixote Doflamingo step by step.

With each step, the hatred on his face increased. When he finally reached Doflamingo's side, his eyes burned with intense hatred.

"Couh cough~"

Donquixote Doflamingo coughed, blood sprayed from his mouth as he looked up at Law.

"Everything you have today is because of me. I should be your benefactor!"

"So why are you so determined to kill me?"

Speaking of this, his voice became sharp, filled with anger.

He couldn't understand why Law wanted to kill him. 

Everything Law had obviously comes from him.

If he hadn't saved Law, Law would have died when he was a child.

"Mr. Corazon!" 

Law finally spoke a name after a long silence.

Donquixote Doflamingo trembled upon hearing this, then burst into frantic laughter. "So, you're seeking revenge for my dead brother, Corazon? Is that it? That's how you said you were to help him get his revenge, so you turned to Whitebeard to kill me?!"

"Yes!" 

Hatred filled Law's face.

Without any hesitation, he drew his longsword.

Stabbed~

With a stabbing sound, blood flowed down.

'Heavenly Yaksha' Donquixote Doflamingo, a.k.a the underground king 'Joker', who was former Celestial Dragons and also one of Seven Warlords of the Sea, strong pirates who gain foothold in New World, was killed on this day.

"Young Master!" 

Diamante and the others cried out in sorrow.

But the few people who were seriously injured couldn't move at all, and were forced to watch the death of their young master who they supported for half of their lives.

"It's over"

Law whispered.

He had finally avenged Mr. Corazon.

The nightmare that has been haunting his heart has completely disappeared at this moment.

After a moment of silence, he raised his sword once more and approached Diamante and the others.

As the cold light flashed, many cadres were killed one after another.

"From today, there will be no more Donquixote Family among the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Marco whispered.

"Yeah" 

Vista nodded in agreement.

Whitebeard on the side remained silent, his eyes focused on the card in his hand.

This card was obtained when he defeated Donquixote Doflamingo.

[Monster Body: Use this card to acquire a tough, monster-like physique.]

"Monster body?" 

Whitebeard's eyes widened in surprise.

While he didn't fully understand what the "monster body" meant, Whitebeard was certain that anything produced by the system wouldn't be weak.

He believed that no matter how it turned out after he used it, it wouldn't be weaker than Kaido's body.

Then he put the card away, ready to use it once everything was over.

At this moment

Law, who had killed all his enemies, turned around and stood before Whitebeard, bowing ninety degrees.

"Oyaji, from now on, the Heart Pirates will always be under your command!"

"Guurarara~"

"No need for such formalities among family!"

Whitebeard laughed, and then his tone changed: "Since the matter has been resolved, get ready to leave here and prepare for the upcoming war!"

Upon hearing these words, the expressions of those present became serious.

They understood the gravity of their father's mention of war.

Kaido's alliance with Big Mom and Golden Lion is definitely to target the Whitebeard Pirates.

The Four Emperors might be on the verge of war.

"Oyaji!" 

At that moment, a voice came from the distance.

The people turned their heads and saw a large group of people running towards them from a distance.

Among them are the division commanders and crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, along with soldiers in Roman armor.

When the group walked in, they immediately saw Doflamingo's body.

"That is..."

An old man with white hair and a sturdy frame suddenly widened his eyes, his body trembling: "That demon is dead?!"

Speaking of this, tears instantly gathered up in his eyes. 

He is King Riku Doldo III

The former king of Dressrosa.

When Violet heard that Doflamingo was about to run away, she immediately took action and rallied the forces she knew to fight back and reclaim the country from Doflamingo's grip.

When Law killed a group of Donquixote Family members,

The people who had been turned into toys were restored to their original forms, King Riku also reappeared, and he announced the truth to the people, who forgave him.

"Is the tragedy in this country finally over?"

Kyros, the legendary gladiator from the Corrida Colosseum, and former captain of Riku Royal Army, who had been restored to his original form, also burst into tears.

"Thanks you, Mr. Whitebeard!"

King Riku looked at Whitebeard, walked two steps forward, then knelt heavily on the ground, his head on the ground: "Mr. Whitebeard, you've done a great favor for Dressrosa, and Dressrosa will always remember your actions today!"

"Oyaji, he's King Riku, the former King of Dressrosa who was later framed by Doflamingo and lost his kingship" 

Jozu explained.

"You don't have to thank me" 

Whitebeard shook his head.

After reading the original work, he naturally knows about King Riku's circumstances.

But….

He wasn't fighting against Donquixote Doflamingo for this country; he was fighting for his son.

And as the world's strongest man, he doesn't need this kind of gratitude.

"No matter what, you saved this country. I'll make sure people know about your kindness to me and Dressrosa" 

King Riku said with gratitude.

He understood that Whitebeard was a pirate

He also knew that Whitebeard didn't come to defeat Donquixote Doflamingo for his sake or for Dressrosa.

but so what?

As long as he defeated Doflamingo and restored Dressrosa, he would be regarded as a benefactor of the country.

After expressing his gratitude, King Riku extended an invitation to Whitebeard, hoping that he would participate in the upcoming banquet.

At the same time, King Riku asked Kyros to reveal all the truth about Doflamingo's schemes and Whitebeard's actions to the people.

When the people learned about what Whitebeard had done, they were shocked.

"It turns out Whitebeard isn't the demon people said he was!"

"Even though he's a pirate, he did more justice than the Marines. He's the one who saved Dressrosa!"

"Whitebeard is our benefactor!"

"Yes, without him, I wouldn't have reunited with my family at all!"

The people began to talked amongst themselves.

When they saw Whitebeard again, the people no longer viewed him as a demon, but instead cheered for him.

"It looks like these people aren't afraid of us anymore" 

Marco laughed.

"It's because the old man saved them, if it weren't for him, the country would have descended into chaos, and eventually, it might have been destroyed" 

Ace said with pride.

"Haha, you're right!" 

Jozu laughed.

Amidst the cheers, crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates arrived at the palace and joined the banquet prepared by King Riku.
