"It's you, brother..." Doflamingo's expression changed: "No wonder I felt something was wrong with that person, that he had some inexplicable killing intent towards me."
He thought he had been discovered to be a Celestial Dragon, and that the other party hated Celestial Dragons.
"You are now qualified to join the Knights of God. Among the Celestial Dragons, there are not many people with Conqueror's Haki."
As he spoke, Dimon extended his hand to Doflamingo.
Seeing a hand reaching for his chest, Doflamingo instinctively took a half step back.
She is a woman now, and this is a woman's instinctive reaction.
"B-Big Brother, what are you doing?" Doflamingo's forehead was dripping with cold sweat.
Really? My brother has this kind of fetish?
He had heard in the Holy Land that some Celestial Dragons liked little boys. Could it be that his older brother was also such a pervert?!
"It's just taking back the mark on you," Dimon said irritably.
He pressed his palm against Mingfei's abdomen, retracting the pentagram mark that was etched onto her body.
Doflamingo immediately lifted his clothes and looked down; sure enough, the mark on his body that he couldn't wash off had disappeared.
This thing used to cause him a lot of trouble. He had to take a shower in secret, afraid of being discovered.
"After you join the Knights of God, someone will carve something similar on you somewhere."
"And your task is simple: gather information on one person."
Information about someone?
Doflamingo narrowed his eyes slightly. "The Five Elders?"
"No, even higher up. I can't tell you exactly who it is now, but you'll understand what I mean soon after you join."
The reason for not mentioning Im is to prevent Doflamingo from being exposed.
What kind of abilities Im possesses is unknown; there might even be a "political vetting" process before he joins the Knights of God.
If Doflamingo knew of Im's existence, he might have shown a weakness.
After all, this kid is only 12 years old.
Above the Five Elders?
Doflamingo was stunned. The Five Elders were already the most powerful people in the world. What else was above them?
This news was a huge shock to him.
"I've only awakened Conqueror's Haki, brother, can I really join the Knights of God?"
Dimon nodded. "Don't underestimate your potential. Conqueror's Haki is a very rare power. For the next while, I will stay on this island and teach you how to control Conqueror's Haki freely. Right now, you are only unconsciously activating it."
After a pause, he said to Crocodile, "And you too. Whether you're herding one sheep or two, it's all the same. I'll also teach you Observation Haki and Armament Haki while I'm at it."
Upon hearing this, Crocodile's expression shifted. On Beehive Island, he had learned a hard lesson about the importance of Haki after failing to master it.
For the next period of time, Dimon stayed in Dressrosa, teaching the two of them domineering skills every day.
Meanwhile, Holy Land Marie Gioia.
Inside the magnificent room, four of the Five Elders were sitting, while one was standing.
Opposite them, a white-clad major general was reporting on his mission.
"I met the 'centenarian swordsman' Yamamoto Genryusai on Beehive Island. Following the instructions of the Sengoku shogun, I extended an invitation to him, but he refused."
"Thank you for your hard work." Satan said calmly, "Yamamoto Genryusai is indeed a good candidate. Since he has refused, then issue an arrest warrant for him."
Bai Ying immediately added, "After refusing, he recommended someone to me, Crocodile, a Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit user."
"A recommendation?" The bald Five Elders frowned. "What authority or position does he have to recommend candidates to us?"
Topman pondered, "I've heard of this name before. He's a new pirate who recently appeared on the Grand Line. Logia-type Devil Fruit users are rare, so he's worth recruiting."
The navy also has natural-type personnel, and there are as many as three of them.
Those were three supernovas of the Navy, being groomed to be the future pillars of the Navy.
“Crocodile… is not qualified yet.” The old man with the goatee pondered, “The Seven Warlords of the Sea need great prestige. He is just a newcomer right now. Let’s put him on the list of candidates for observation and pay close attention to him.”
"Yes! I will relay the order to the Warring States General." Bai Ying nodded in acceptance.
Then, Saint Satan asked, "Let's put the Seven Warlords of the Sea aside for now, what about the sake?"
"it's here."
The white figure took out a perfectly intact bottle of the Elixir of Immortality from under his cloak and handed it to the Five Elders.
"The transaction went smoothly. Dimon, the brewer, guessed who I was. He asked me to pass on a message to you... If you want more wine, just bring the Devil Fruit to him, and he'll welcome you anytime!"
Upon hearing this, Saint Satan remained noncommittal.
They need the Elixir of Immortality, but only for research and to explore its mysteries; they don't need that much.
Chapter 119 The day of the promise, the rubber fruit appears!
Having obtained the Elixir of Immortality, the Five Elders set off for the Flower Garden.
"Lord Im, this is the Elixir of Immortality obtained from the trade fair."
The five people stood at the doorway, kneeling on one knee.
The room was filled with flowers, birdsong, and the fragrance of blossoms. A stone table and bench sat amidst the flowers.
Im sat there and simply beckoned to the elixir of immortality with his finger, and the elixir flew from Satan's hand and landed on the stone table.
She unscrewed the bottle, and immediately a rich aroma of wine wafted out.
The fragrance attracted butterflies from the nearby flowerbeds, which flew to the stone table and circled around the wine bottle.
"It smells so good..."
Im murmured to himself.
The aroma even reached the doorway. Satan, head bowed, said:
"Lord Im, I am confident that I can develop its formula within ten years!"
Knowing that the main ingredient is Devil Fruit, he had this confidence.
As for ten years... for them, who are immortal, it is just a short time.
Im glanced at Satan Saint, his tone indifferent:
"Do as you please, I don't care."
The immortality offered by the elixir of life was indeed interesting, but it wasn't important to her.
She can also grant others immortality and possess absolute control.
Based on this, she believed that the Elixir of Immortality also had hidden traps.
More than figuring out how to brew the elixir of immortality, she was concerned with how to completely kill the undead who drank it.
Nine years have passed since Lox was captured, and he remains imprisoned deep underground in Pangaea.
Even she... couldn't completely kill an undead.
Even if only one cell remains, Lox can regenerate, but it will take a much longer time.
Now, with the spread of the Elixir of Immortality, more and more undead are being born in the Netherworld.
This is a threat to Im.
"Find a way to kill the undead!"
Im waved his hand gently, and the wine on the stone table floated back to Saint Satan.
"Yes, Lord Im!"
Dressrosa, outskirts, a sea of flowers.
"Thunder gossip!"
Dimon sent Crocodile and Doflamingo flying with a single blow, the two arcing through the air before crashing heavily into the flowerbed.
"Ouch, it hurts! Big brother, are you trying to kill me?"
Doflamingo covered his face, blood streaming from his nose.
For months, he had been beaten every day. He never expected that Dimon's way of teaching them to be domineering would be to beat them up directly.
Crocodile knelt on the ground, breathing heavily.
"I want to kill you all; even ten of your lives wouldn't be enough."
Dumon, carrying his spiked club, grinned and said, "Training through corporal punishment is definitely faster. Kaido was right after all."
Teacher Kai taught Luffy how to use a stick to teach him how to entangle.
He was no less skilled; after whipping the two men for several months, they quickly awakened their Observation Haki and Armament Haki.
Unfortunately, Doflamingo is really useless. Even after being beaten by him for so long, he still hasn't learned how to use the "Holding Bond" technique.
Look at Wang Lufei, he only needs one night!
Hmm, maybe the force was too light. When Kaido hit Luffy, he really hit him hard; he held back an entire ocean of water.
"That concludes the special training. Afterward, you will return to the Holy Land and join the Knights of God."
Dimon tossed the spiked club aside, walked up to the two men, and instructed them, "As for you, Saki, focus on building up your intelligence organization."
"Big brother, are you leaving?" Crocodile was taken aback.
"I have an appointment with someone, and judging by the time, it'll be soon."
A year has passed since Roger's public execution.
For the past year, Dimon has not been seen in the news.
It's unclear whether the World Government deliberately suppressed news about Roger, or whether Roger simply disappeared without a trace.
Goodbye, and I look forward to your future performances.
With a light laugh, Dimon snapped his fingers, and a pentagram magic circle appeared beneath his feet, instantly teleporting him away.
Doflamingo breathed a sigh of relief and plopped down on the ground.
"Finally they're gone! If they kept training like this, I'd be beaten to death sooner or later, really!"
Turning his head, he saw Crocodile get up and leave, and couldn't help but say:
"Are you leaving now?"
Crocodile paused, his face full of displeasure.
After spending several months together, they still couldn't get along.
Doflamingo chuckled softly, "Fuff...fuff...want to have a drink before we go?"
"I have no interest in drinking with little kids."
Crocodile was unimpressed and quickly disappeared into the sea of flowers.
Doflamingo pursed his lips and got up to walk home as well.
Joining the Knights of God... Not bad!
Sky Island, the realm of the gods, the ruins of the golden city of Shandora.
Within the pyramid-like temple structure, a long-unused pentagram magic circle released a cloud of black mist.
Dimon emerged from the black mist.
He raised his hand to look at his wristwatch, which showed the time as 11:55 a.m.
"Will he come? There are only 5 minutes left until the agreed time. If he doesn't come..."
Dimon walked over and sat down, waiting quietly.
If Roger doesn't come, he will teleport there himself, as the other party has a magic circle mark left by him.
He didn't have to wait long; just one minute later, the magic circle reappeared with black mist.
The person who appeared this time was none other than Roger.
