The Cunning Villain Doflamingo!

_________________

At the top of the Red Line, in Marigoa, inside the famous Pangaea Castle.

The Five Elders glared at each other with flushed faces and ugly expressions.

"Damn it! What a blunder..." The voice of Saint Ju Peter was deep and sharp.

"Covering up a serious incident to avoid shaking people's confidence in the Marine, which just won a major war, is definitely a smart move... It would only be so in one case, and that is if it's discovered," said Saint Nasjuro after prolonged contemplation.

"And it was revealed in the most ridiculous way possible... Although we are used to doing similar things because they are necessary for our interests, we haven't done that yet... Even when Teach escaped and took the same four people from the prison with him, we disclosed it to the public in this world."

Saint Warcury said in disgust.

"Nevertheless... the manga is relentless. Look how Sengoku is portrayed as dissatisfied and completely angry with this decision... This means he is completely against it and considers it catastrophic, and we, the people at the top with enough authority, are the villains."

Saint Mars added.

"…" Saint Saturn stared in silence before finally speaking.

"We are losing more supporters, with the manga reaching its end, there may not be a single person on our side, and we will be ostracized and might lose our position."

"This is unacceptable; Lord Imu must remain king."

...

Impel Down:

"How the hell could something like this be allowed!?"

Seeing this in the manga, Magellan felt as if the world government held him responsible for all the lives that would be lost at the hands of the level six escapees without any desire to correct them.

"This is absolutely ridiculous... Don't you have the power? You can capture them all and announce it all at once!"

Magellan felt his faith in the government wane; this was not the justice he wanted to fight for.

"Sigh... I've heard that in the central prison, everything is done fairly and according to a strict law built on transparency with the community... Why don't you emulate the hunters, you scum!"

...

Inside the art store on the Hunters' Island:

At this moment, the vast hall with its diverse dimensions was filled with mockery and cries of disapproval at how the world government handled its blunders.

The hunters hated the world government, and with each additional chapter exposing more of their evils, the hatred deepened. They were fully prepared to overthrow them and hand this world to the King of the Hunters, the true and only king of this world in their hearts.

But Rob remained silent and did not say a word or issue any orders in this regard, so they could do nothing but wait for his commands.

Among these hunters were World, Bullet, and Redfield, the three legendary hunters, eating donuts, drinking sweet wine, and laughing at the stupidity of the world government in the manga.

"Hahaha! I bet one of the level six escapees is my counterpart!" World shouted in a strong and mocking tone.

"Fufufu~ Me too... Unfortunately, because there is no Rob in the manga world, my escape from prison might have awaited such an opportunity." Redfield added as well.

"Guys... the same might apply to me... the fact that my counterpart hasn't appeared in the manga yet means I've been rotting in Impel Down too." Bullet's eyes sparkled as he said this.

...

Marineford, Backstreets:

"Alright, alright, what's going on here?"

"This is somewhat interesting."

"Why is Doflamingo doing this?!"

"Umm, maybe it's a matter of settling scores?"

After a short while, the general mood returned to focus on the manga's sequence of events. Borsalino, Kuzan, Sengoku, and Zephyr were all astonished after seeing Moria's miserable state.

Brought about by one of the active Shichibukai like him, Donquixote Doflamingo.

Chapter's Events:

[Marineford, Backstreets]

"Ku…!!"

Explosions could be heard in the backstreets of Marineford, as a group of Pacifista surrounded Moria from all sides along with Doflamingo.

"Doflamingo, you bastard!!!"

Moria was lying on the ground, soaked in his own blood, but he still cursed the person responsible for his current plight.

"Fufufufufu!!!"

"Moria… You're no longer strong enough to bear the Shichibukai name…"

Doflamingo laughed mockingly and continued:

"Doesn't 'died in battle at the summit' sound nice...? Better than 'disposed of by the government' anyway!!"

Moria glared with red eyes, filled with deep anger and hatred, and screamed:

"Who ordered you to do this? Haa… haa… Sengoku…!!?"

Doflamingo pointed his finger upwards with a sarcastic smile:

"No… Someone higher up!!!"

•———•———•———•———•

"The loathsome look on this man's face... Doflamingo seems like a top-tier villain..."

Sengoku fell into deep thought as he saw Doflamingo torturing Moria.

"Is this man really the counterpart of the current student of the Sky Sword?" he wondered in astonishment.

The same applied to the others beside him who had similar expressions on their faces.

Seventeen-year-old Donquixote Doflamingo was a talented Hunter in the A-rank! Alongside Thunder Bird Enel and the Silent Hunter Rosinante, they formed a super team capable of executing missions assigned only to the ten legendary hunters!

Seeing his older counterpart as a Shichibukai in the manga and even among their elite was not unexpected.

But seeing his evil side was the unconventional or unexpected thing.

Doflamingo seemed to enjoy torturing Moria instead of killing him outright and carrying out the mission assigned to him by the world government.

After all, even the Marine side did not think that a personal student of someone as kind as Rob could be a crazy villain inside.

"Someone higher than Sengoku-san? Are they the Five Elders?" Kuzan wondered.

"It might be one of the Holy Knights," Sengoku pointed out, as after all, the Five Elders are considered at the top of the hierarchy.

The Marine members confirmed this after seeing their recent descent and their extraordinary transformations.

...

The Central Prison, inside Moria and Shiki's Cell:

"Jihahahahaha! How does it feel to see someone else other than me stomp on your face?"

The Golden Lion laughed as he saw the ugly expression on Moria's face.

"Doflamingo, you bastard...!! My counterpart can't be this weak! He's using the Pacifistas!"

"This is unfair!"

"Stop making excuses, Doflamingo wasn't wrong about that."

"Your counterpart is very weak," Shiki mocked.

...

Ohara:

"Fufufu~ It seems like my counterpart is enjoying himself."

Seeing Doflamingo destroy Moria, Doffy let out a hearty laugh and felt in sync with his counterpart's actions.

He had always wanted to peel the skin off this rude Moria, especially in the Thriller Bark Arc.

Both Enel and Rosinante looked strangely at Doffy, who had a crazy look on his face.

"You are truly crazy," both Enel and Rosinante echoed in their hearts.
