Chapter 71: The True Purpose Appears! Terrifying Slaughter Weapon! (Ch 71)

“This… guy… is still a human being!”

“He actually used the fragments of his identity to protect every crew member…”

As Doflamingo and his crew slowly approached, the thick smoke covering the Bikudorp gradually dissipated, revealing the crew members who were still immersed in fear.

In front of each of them, there was a piece of Baki’s body fragment floating, like a guardian spirit, gently resisting the damage caused by the fall.

However, even with such protection, some crew members still clung to the railings, while others slumped on the ground helplessly, their eyes filled with shock and fear from the thrilling scene that had just occurred.

“Am I dazzled? That guy actually…took Mochi away…”

Kabaji muttered, with a hint of disbelief in his voice.

His eyes moved back and forth between Buggy who was slowly regaining his human form and Shiki who had disappeared into the horizon, as if he was trying to find a hint of an answer from both of them.

“This wretched old man, I’ve already seen that he is not a good person!”

With a loud bang, Alrita struggled to crawl out of the ruins: “He is a famous pirate, how could I be so stupid as to come to such a party!”

“Stop complaining… Alrita, check to see if our communication equipment is still usable. You know, our ship doesn’t have wings, so it’s still a big problem how to get down.”

Buggy’s face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes met with Doflamingo who was walking slowly. There seemed to be some unspoken understanding between the two.

“咈咈咈咈咈~”

“It looks like our communications king is in trouble.”

Doflamingo half-knelt beside the communication equipment, his fingers gently running over the broken parts, with a playful smile on his face:

“Why, do you need help? What a coincidence, I happen to have an expert in this field here.”

“It looks like there’s something wrong with one of the lines. It should be repairable.”

Gladius, the user of the Boom-Boom Fruit of the Doflamingo family, walked out of the crowd at this time. He was wearing his iconic goggles, and his eyes revealed concentration and confidence.

“Wait… this guy is a shamatte, can he repair it? This is…”

Before Alrita could finish her words, the communication device lying on the ground suddenly made a faint sound of electricity. Then, the screen flickered a few times and miraculously lit up again.

“How is it? My men’s skills are pretty good, right?”

Doflamingo grinned:

“Can we talk now? Your opponent is as famous as Gol D. Roger. Even for you, it might not be easy to deal with him…”

“What on earth do you want to do… Doflamingo, no… I should call you Joker.”

Bucky’s eyes became sharp:

“As far as I know, there is no grudge between you and Shiqi.”

“咈咈咈咈咈~”

“As expected of a communications professional, your intelligence network is truly extraordinary.”

The former stood up and applauded, the smile on his face becoming more playful:

“But the underworld doesn’t need two spokesmen…especially when one of them holds enough power to overthrow the entire order.”

There was a sinister flash in his eyes:

“What’s more, I got news that the bastard Desolo had already contacted that old man in advance. In this case, I can’t just sit back and do nothing.”

“I remember now, Dover!”

Torrebol also squeezed out of the crowd at this time. His fat body was covered with sticky liquid and his face was full of indignation.

“It was that bastard who stole the Gold-Gold Fruit when I wasn’t paying attention! I haven’t settled the score with him yet!”

…….

“We found them, Master Shiki!”

The camera turned and in a secret room filled with surveillance screens and precision instruments, a subordinate in black uniform was reporting to Shi Ji.

On the screen, the images switched like a kaleidoscope, and the movements of Buggy and Doflamingo’s fleet were in full view.

“Heh, it’s getting more and more interesting now that he’s involved with Doflamingo.”

Shi Ji sat on the large leather sofa, playing with an ancient gold coin in his hand:

“Are you relieved now, Mochi? I told you long ago that they are fine…”

“No, that’s not enough! I want to see them leave here alive!”

Mochi’s hands were tied tightly, and the rope was tightly around his wrists:

“Before that, I won’t cooperate no matter what.”

“Are you qualified to negotiate with me, boy?”

Shi Ji sneered and pressed the remote control in his hand lightly, and the surveillance screen suddenly trembled.

In the picture, several huge sea beasts were tumbling, as if pulled by an invisible force, and were rapidly approaching Buggy and Doflamingo and his group.

“Again, my patience has limits!”

The former turned his head and smiled, his eyes fierce:

“Indigo, did you bring the stuff?”

“I have been waiting for a long time, sir.”

A thin man in a white coat walked out from the shadows, holding a box that looked ordinary but emitted a faint glow:

“Are we going to start now?!”

“That’s right. Let’s show it to the partner who is about to join us.”

Shiki patted the arm of the couch gently, motioning for Indigo to place the box on the table in the middle of the room.

Then he slowly opened the box and took out a green medicine bottle, his eyes flashing with fanaticism.

“Look, you are the first outsider to know that this thing exists.”

The former slowly picked up the bottle of emerald green potion in his hand and gently shook it. Then, he slowly walked towards the exquisite birdcage in the house, which contained a colorful and exquisite parrot.

When he was a few steps away from the birdcage, Shiqi stopped, raised the bottle of medicine in his hand, and gently sprayed the parrot in the cage.

In an instant, a stream of light green liquid spurted out from the bottle mouth and quickly spread in the air. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a thin layer of mist, gently wrapping the parrot like a veil.

Just as the mist touched the parrot’s body, something unexpected happened!

With a deafening “boom” sound, the originally quiet and well-behaved parrot seemed to be under a spell, and its body began to expand wildly at an alarming speed. In just a few seconds, it had become extremely huge, like a giant beast!

The parrot was now completely unrecognizable. It opened its bloody mouth and let out a deep and terrifying roar. Powerful air gushed out of its mouth, forming a series of fierce whirlwinds that swept everything around it.

The birdcage, which had been extremely sturdy, now seemed so fragile in front of this giant monster. With a few crisp “crackling” sounds, the bars of the birdcage broke one after another, and the entire cage was instantly torn into pieces.

“Asshole, you…what did you do to it!”

Mochi’s eyes widened in horror: “It seems to be in great pain, make it stop!”

“That’s why I’m willing to go against that popular clown Bucky to invite you over.”

Shiqi slowly walked to Mochi and patted his shoulder:

“Listen carefully, this drug is called “SIQ”. Once it is injected into animals, it can cause them to undergo amazing combat evolution. If it is injected continuously, it can also enhance their ferocity, and eventually turn them into an invincible combat weapon.”

“And I have many such potions. This means that I can create an army of beasts that is invincible and will make the entire ocean tremble!”

There was a fanatical gleam in Shiqi’s eyes, as if he had seen the moment when he would rule the world.

“But such power also comes at a price.”

His gaze lingered on Mochi’s horrified face for a moment, then turned to the monster that was still wreaking havoc:

“Look at it. Although its combat capability has been greatly improved, the price it paid is that it lost its self and became a monster that only knows how to fight.”

Shiki’s tone held a hint of regret.

“And your ability can make up for this…”

“So, become my partner, Mochi! Then, you can get everything you want: wealth, power, fame… everything will be within your reach.”

“Don’t even think about it!”

Mochi raised his head sharply: “You hurt innocent animals for your own ambitions. You don’t deserve to be followed by anyone!”

“Don’t speak too soon, kid.”

Shiki slowly rose to the air, and with the two sharp blades of “Yakura Ten” and “Muku” on his feet, he gently rolled them, and the violent monster suddenly stopped attacking. Its body trembled violently, and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

“Hahahahaha——”

“Just wait, one day you’ll beg me to join you!”
