Chapter 391 Doflamingo
Chapter 391 Doflamingo
Marie Joa, Pangu City.
The pure white marble floor reflected the glaring sunlight, and Doflamingo's footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. Behind his sunglasses, his gaze swept over the Celestial Dragon emblem on the pillars, and he secretly clenched his fists with excitement. This was his birthplace, and also the tomb where his innocence was buried.
The smoke of war in the G-1 branch has dissipated. He "accepted" the deal with Saint Satan and secretly helped Zhiyuan "escape". At the same time, he seized all the historical texts of the landmarks owned by the current Beasts Pirates in one fell swoop.
Although the outcome of the war was not optimistic, the acquisition of the historical text was already a great achievement.
Now, it was time to fulfill the deal. He avoided "everyone's" sight and returned to Mary Geoise, ready to accept the title of Knight of God. He seemed very proud and satisfied, but unfortunately, the person with whom he had made the deal seemed unable to see this scene.
Thinking of Saint Satan's condescending attitude, Doflamingo couldn't help but sneer and mock himself in his heart.
The reason for his sneer was that he had now deceived all those so-called "righteous" guys and was able to return to the Holy Land. The tacit approval of the Five Elders had become an invisible pass, allowing him to travel unimpeded all the way to the most hidden corner of this ocean.
The room full of flowers.
As for his self-mockery, it was because once upon a time, when he had stirred up the North Sea with his talent of Conqueror's Haki and was finally spotted by Vice Admiral Tsuru, he scoffed at Mary Geoise's invitation to become a Knight of God, because he understood that the so-called knights were nothing more than God's hounds.
And at this moment, he took the initiative like an abandoned stray dog, biting the bait of the "Knight of God" and eagerly becoming a slave of God. This is even more despicable than ordinary slaves! Especially for the guys like the Celestial Dragons who attach great importance to "honor", this is even more so!
But it's all worth it, as long as we can break down the walls of Mary Geoise, pull these guys down from their high and mighty attitude, and make them feel the pain we once suffered!
Even if I give up my pride and dignity and return to the holy land like now, what would it matter?
Dignity, this thing is worthless!
Only the winner can have the last laugh!
. . . .
Pushing open the carved door covered with rose patterns, a refreshing fragrance hit him the moment the hinges turned. Although it was not the first time, Doflamingo subconsciously held his breath.
What I see before me is not a solemn meeting hall, but an endless sea of white flowers.
Thousands of lilies bloomed on the grass, and crystal dew condensed on the white petals, reflecting colorful light.
In the middle of the sea of flowers, an equally pure white throne stood there, and on the throne sat a figure in a white robe with his back to the gate.
The long azure hair fell on the back of the chair like the sea, and in front of the throne stood a woman dressed as a maid. She was wearing a black robe embroidered with lace and holding a small silver comb in her hand, gently combing the long hair of the person on the throne.
"Woman?" Doflamingo twitched his lips, his pupils shrinking slightly behind his sunglasses. Could the King of the World be a woman? The thought had just occurred to him before he suppressed it.
The other party's existence is too ancient, and gender has no meaning to him. Moreover, how can a person who has been able to rule the world for eight hundred years be measured by mortal standards?
Doflamingo quickly lowered his head to hide his change of expression, but suddenly noticed that the roots of the lilies were actually gleaming with a dark red light, as if something extraordinary was sleeping beneath those roots...
"Don Quixote Doflamingo." A voice rang out from the throne. It was neither male nor female, like the voices of countless people blended together, with a strange penetrating power. "You are much smarter than Ho Minggu."
Doflamingo bowed slightly and tapped his sunglasses with his fingers: "After all, it's not every day that you get the opportunity to be summoned by Lord Im."
"Tell me why you're here." There was no emotion in Im's voice, and Junzi still maintained the demeanor of a maid, as if Doflamingo was not in her eyes at all.
"I figured it out." Doflamingo said softly, and white silk threads wrapped around his fingertips. Those threads wove into a miniature Celestial Dragon's hoof in the air, and then shattered in an instant.
"The Celestial Dragons' national treasure... With that thing in my possession, I'm afraid my revenge will never reach its end. However, my identity as a Knight of God does allow me to do some interesting things—like judging those hooded idiots!"
Having said that, Doflamingo paused, as if waiting for Im's response, but he was sneering in his heart: The Ope Ope Fruit had long been given to that little girl Germa by Yakumo Shiro. Without the blessing of eternal life, how could he possibly covet the national treasure?
"Huh." It was an imperceptible whisper, and Yim's voice was calm, as if he was talking about the weather, but it was more of an undisguised contempt.
She slowly turned around, and Junzi immediately stepped aside, revealing her face shrouded in shadow. Doflamingo squinted, trying to see the outline of her face, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he seemed to be covered by a layer of fog.
"Revenge...boring stuff. Even you consumables living in the Holy Land have such empty thoughts?"
The white figure disappeared instantly, and in the next second, Doflamingo suddenly felt a burning pain in his body and mind, as if something hot was being imprinted deep into his soul.
He watched as a black pentagram mark flew out from Yim's fingertips and pierced his chest like a red-hot iron. The moment the mark penetrated his skin, his life force was instantly locked away, as if he would die like an ant if the other party had the slightest thought!
"This is..." Doflamingo staggered, and his domineering aura burst out uncontrollably, shaking the surrounding lily petals rustling, but there was no sign of damage.
"This is the badge bestowed upon the Knights of God by Lord Yim. With it, you can enjoy the blessings bestowed by God!"
Seeing this, Junzi, who had never spoken, finally explained, his expression still unchanged.
However, just as Doflamingo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his heart was seized by another wave of ripping pain. It was as if an invisible hand was clenching his heart in his chest, and the pain made him bend over involuntarily.
“Surgical line…!”
The strong desire to survive made Doflamingo immediately intend to use his ability to heal his injured heart, but he did not expect that the toy heart prepared by Yakumo Bai was far more strange than he imagined.
It does not follow the laws of biological organs at all. When the surgical thread tried to suture the invisible rupture in the chest cavity, several rows of tiny serrations suddenly popped out from the surface of the heart and bit off the end of the thread with a click.
What was even more terrifying was that those broken threads actually penetrated into his blood vessels like living springs, carrying with them the unique smell of low-quality gears from toys, and wandered wildly throughout his limbs and bones.
“Ugh—!”
Doflamingo's back suddenly arched, feeling his veins being constricted by these alien threads. He could clearly "see" the toy heart expanding into a strange cube within his chest, its surface cracked in red like a child's graffiti. Each crack oozes vibrant colors, dazzling like a rainbow!
"Is this... that Yakumo Shiro's backup plan to prevent betrayal?"
Im's voice finally showed a hint of interest. Doflamingo was almost "killed" by his own heart before he leisurely stretched out a hand and sketched the rotation of the pentagram.
"Black Turn Domination!"
"Om-"
With the arrival of a more dominant force, a heart sparkling with gorgeous colors was finally "squeezed" out of the body. Under the influence of the immortality unique to the Knight of God and the "contract" imposed by Im at this time, Doflamingo's almost broken body was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon evolved in the direction of demonization!
"boom--"
As the power expanded rapidly, the powerful domineering color spread uncontrollably with Doflamingo as the center. The domineering aura swept across the sea of flowers and set off a strong air wave, but at the same time, a few strands of hair that were swept by the air wave happened to be entangled in the exquisite silver comb in Junzi's hand - the hair she had just combed for Im was instantly messed up.
"How dare you!"
Seeing this, Junzi's body shape changed instantly. The seemingly weak ribbons seemed to carry unparalleled power, directly knocking the almost berserk Doflamingo away and smashing an obvious hole in the door behind him.
"Ahem! Ahem!"
Several streams of blood-red liquid spilled onto the ground. Doflamingo slammed into the gate, cracking the solid stone. He coughed up blood foam, his vision blurry, but a mad grin stretched across his lips.
"As expected of Master Im... The control of that brat, Yakumo Haku, has finally been achieved..."
He could feel the pain in his chest subsiding, his body healing at an unprecedented rate, and a long-lost sense of relaxation also surged into his heart. Just a moment ago, the restraint that Yakumo Bai had placed on his heart was finally broken by Im!
"You are such a rude person, even your own heart has become someone else's toy, how can you be worthy of talking about loyalty?"
Yim's voice was still cold, but as a maid, Junzi knew very well that this "king" who rarely showed emotions was already dissatisfied at this time.
"I'm willing to give everything!" Doflamingo propped himself up, but even with his renewed strength he still couldn't suppress the trembling that came from the depths of his soul.
There is gain and loss. After breaking free from the constraints of the flesh, a more dangerous soul shackle has arrived, and there is absolutely no possibility of tearing it apart!
"Please give me a chance, a chance to prove my loyalty!"
Humility, even to the point of being humble, this is something Doflamingo is very familiar with. He knows that he must look very embarrassed at the moment, but he doesn't care. As long as he can gain Im's trust, it doesn't matter even if he lowers his head temporarily.
"The blade of the Knight of God must first learn who to aim at."
As if remembering something, Yimu slowly spoke,
"No one can break Mu's contract, so betrayal is impossible. You want to prove your loyalty? I'm afraid that's impossible."
As he spoke, a dark and deep door suddenly appeared behind Doflamingo, swallowing him up in one gulp when he was completely unprepared. Others might not know what that door meant, but Junzi, who had served Im for nearly a hundred years, knew it very well.
Behind that door are the souls of all the Knights of God over the centuries!
From the moment they become the Knights of God until their souls disappear, they will forever serve Im, always ready to dedicate everything they have to the great war that may come at any time!
"To endure pain, then to remember hatred, and then to become a weapon of God, that is the only loyalty."
The contract shows that behind the door is a forbidden place for the living, a paradise for demons, the placenta of desire, and the living root of the forest god, which survives by devouring flesh and blood!
As for its name in Mary Geoise—that is, the Phantom Room.
