99. Now I Can Beat Whitebeard!

Rob, who has set two legendary death flags in succession, can't help showing a self-entertaining smile on his face, but the meme is always the meme, and the reality is always the truth!

Now--

Rob's strength is reality!

Swish

In the sky, a news coo flew down and landed on the beach. After seeing it, Rob took out a hundred berries from his pocket and bought a newspaper!

Rob looks at today's news:

["The World's Greatest Swordsman" - Rob, and Seven Warlords of the Sea - "Heavenly Yaksha" - Doflamingo, the day when the grievances that have lasted for several years will end is not far away!]

[...]

[The Island of Women- Kuja Pirates, which has disappeared for several years, reappeared in the first half of the Grand Line "Paradise", the new captain and empress of the Island of Women - Boa Hancock, bounty: 80 million berries!]

[...]

[Gecko Moria, who once fought against the overlord of the New World, the three emperors of the sea, and the world's strongest creature - Kaido of the Beasts, officially joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea!]

[...]

Watch the news.

Rob's eyes flickered slightly:

"There's a lot of news! Boa Hancock's appearance time is a bit late, isn't it? But it's not too bad! Has that fellow Gecko Moria finally become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"

"In this way, the forces under the World Government already have four members! Presumably soon, Boa Hancock will also become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, followed by Jinbei and Bartholomew Kuma!"

The faction of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is finally going to be fully formed, as Rob remembers, it will look like ten years later.

Only--

Doflamingo, who has been in office for a while, will lose his head in a few days, and it will be gone soon!

Put down the newspaper casually.

Rob's eyes are calm:

"After giving him such a long time, he should be able to find a helper, right? Doflamingo! If you can't find a helper here, and you can only deal with me by yourself, that would be too useless!"

This time—

Rob doesn't just have to tackle Doflamingo!

What's more, he wants to uproot all his forces, and at the same time, he wants to tell everyone in the Grand Line that he, Rob, means what he says, and that if he wants to kill Doflamingo and everyone under him, he must be killed!

So Rob gave Doflamingo nearly a month and a half, planning to give him half a month more, letting him summon all the forces of the Donquixote family and invite all the allies he could!

Once and for all—

Eliminate all Doflamingo's enemies, whether they are in the open or hiding in the shadows!

As Morgans put it in the paper.

The battle to end the grudge—

It's coming soon.

While Rob was thinking about Doflamingo.

Whoosh

A volleyball flew directly towards Rob, was accurately blocked by his hand, and caught in his hand.

There was some surprise in his eyes to Robin, Uta, and Makino, who were confidently challenging him. Rob instantly understood what they meant, and stood up from the chair with a smile on his face.

He said:

"Huh?! This means, are you three ready to challenge me? You have to think clearly, even if you are just playing volleyball, I, who is aiming to be the 'strongest ', will not show mercy!"

Swish

Glaring, Rob grinned:

"I'm a firm believer of gender equality when it comes to things like competitions! Even if it is my sister or my woman, I will do my best!"

"You should make up your minds!"

Hearing Rob's words.

Robin, who was the first to start, raised her hands and stretched out many arms on her body, making herself look like a female Bodhisattva like Senju Guanyin, and looked at Rob.

Dissatisfied, she said:

"Come with us for a rest and vacation. It's rare that Makino and I are wearing swimsuits today, and Oni-chan is still alone in a daze! Today, Oni-chan must know how good we are! Uta, Makino——We'll show him!"

After hearing Robin's words, Uta and Makino responded with a smile, and then rushed towards Rob together with Robin.

Quickly.

On this beach, the three-on-one volleyball battle between Rob and the three of them began immediately!

It doesn't matter how it turns out.

What's important

Is just the happy process.

It's a completely different atmosphere from the relaxed and happy group of Rob.

Now—

In the "Paradise" in the first half of the Grand Line, the headquarters of the Donquixote family is located in Mock Town on Jaya Island, which was once slashed by Rob. The area was covered with a sense of low air pressure.

When he was in North Blue.

Doflamingo's plan was to gradually develop towards the Reverse Mountain, then step by step into the Grand Line, and finally gradually develop into the New World, and eventually expand his influence to the whole world!

However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes!

After Rob's strong attack on him, Doflamingo, who didn't want to fight Rob for the time being, was forced to give up everything he had been doing for a long time in North Blue and hastily entered the development of the Grand Line.

Soon after entering the Grand Line—

With the help of his most cooperating partner, Kaido, one of the three overlords of the New World, the "King of Beasts," coupled with the identity of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and his own considerable strength.

Doflamingo quickly gained a firm foothold in the first half of the Grand Line. Because of the pressure Rob brought him, he rapidly expanded his forces, developed his own power, and managed the entire Jaya Island as his headquarters!

And here on Jaya Island—

He started to conquer a large number of cannon fodder subordinates such as pirates, bounty hunters, underground gangs, etc., turning the entire Jaya Island into a "Pirate Paradise" similar to the Beehive island in New World!

And Doflamingo is just like the sea overlord Rocks D. Xebec, whose name was erased from history by the World Government in the past era over the hive island.

Above the entire Jaya Island!

Headquarters of the Donquixote family.

Inside a huge, luxurious office—

Because of fleeing from North Blue, coupled with the disappearance of the Op-Op Fruit, and because Corazon didn't steal it, Doflamingo's younger brother - Rosinante, was not exposed.

There is also Doflamingo who has his own real family, good taste in dressing style, the bright red suit that is still left before killing his brother, and an extremely flamboyant pink feather coat!

Now—

Doflamingo, dressed in a bright red suit, wearing a pink feather coat, and iconic sunglasses, sat on the main seat with an arrogant and rebellious smile on his face.

Looking at the newspaper in hand:

"Fufufu, the day of the decisive battle is approaching? No! No! This day is not the so-called day of the decisive battle, the day of the end! It's for you that the day of death is approaching! Fufufufu..."

Doflamingo covered his face and laughed wildly, with ultimate arrogance on his face, and his whole body exuded a powerful aura, much stronger than when he was in North Blue a few years ago.

After laughing.

Doflamingo looked at the handsome photos of Rob hanging in the office, always alert to himself.

Grinning, he said:

"I really have to thank you! If it weren't for your arrogance, Rob, giving me years of development and growth time, I would still likely have no way to face your existence!"

His current personal strength—

Under the tremendous pressure that Rob brought him, and the need to suppress the pirates and villains on the entire Jaya Island, Doflamingo pushed his Devil Fruit powers to the level of awakening not long ago.

Conqueror's Haki has also come a long way!

The current him is at least ten times stronger than when he was in North Blue.

In addition to strength, what gave Doflamingo the greatest confidence in facing Rob was the forces under his command.

First of all, the power of Jaya Island—

There are dozens of pirate groups of different strengths and weaknesses from all over the world, plus a large number of bounty hunters and underground party gangsters. The total number of rough estimates has reached a full 20,000.

Although the pirates still staying in "Paradise" are basically ants, but as long as there are enough ants, it is enough to be dreadful!

In addition to these outermost miscellaneous fish and cannon fodder, his real power, the cadres of the Donquixote family, has also increased a lot. Most of them are people with various abilities, and after they are integrated, they have good battle experience!

Then there is the helper he enlisted—

The first is the existence of Sir Crocodile.

Because the path he is taking is completely different, and Doflamingo's unique development method has indeed given him great power, the alliance with Crocodile was inevitable.

Not long ago, he had already made contact with him.

After being teased and defeated by Rob, Crocodile has been trying hard to end Rob's legend and has not explicitly refused to participate in this battle.

If there is no explicit refusal, it is a promise.

Then there is Gecko Moria who just joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea not long ago. He is very interested in Rob's shadow or corpse, so he agrees to join him in the war with Rob!

Finally, there is Hawkeye.

This lone ranger did not agree to Doflamingo's invitation to form an alliance, but his hard work in the past few years has already been successful. He plans to come to this island where he has faced humiliation and defeat and take a look at Rob's current strength!

A large force of 20,000 people.

The elite Donquixote family with a large number of capable people.

Coupled with the strong fighting power of almost all the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Doflamingo didn't know how he would lose to Rob's group of only four in the next battle!

With such strength—

After tidying up, Doflamingo looked very arrogant:

"Now maybe I can beat Whitebeard!" (T/N: Heh)
