One Piece: I, a scum of the navy, became an admiral Chapter 252

“Gulp~” Doflamingo subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

A hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and his arrogant demeanor from before had mostly vanished.

Doflamingo only felt a surge of fear in his heart, and his pupils trembled uncontrollably.

‘Am I afraid of this young Marine?!’

“How is that possible… I am ‘Heavenly Yaksha’ Doflamingo!!”

This was his first meeting with Allen, and he hadn’t expected it to feel like this.

A few moments later.

The dumbfounded executives of the Donquixote Family finally reacted.

Seeing their young master in danger, they immediately prepared to rush forward.

“Let go of our Young Master!!”

However, Doflamingo immediately reacted, yelling at his family executives.

“All of you, retreat!!”

“But Young Master…” The executives said worriedly.

Doflamingo’s face darkened, and he yelled again.

“I said! All of you, retreat!!”

The executives exchanged glances. Since the Young Master had said so, they could only retreat.

Seeing that they didn’t act impulsively, Doflamingo let out a long sigh of relief.

Because he had clearly felt a surge of killing intent emanating from Allen just now.

If those executives had dared to charge forward… they would definitely die!!

Seeing Doflamingo’s sensible behavior, a faint smile appeared on Allen’s lips.

He lightly patted Doflamingo’s shoulder and said calmly:

“Very good, you made the right choice.”

If those executives had really dared to charge forward, Allen wouldn’t have minded sending them all on their way.

And that trace of killing intent was intentionally leaked by Allen.

Hearing Allen’s words, Doflamingo remained in a daze for a long time, frozen in place.

Meanwhile, Doflamingo’s health bar had already appeared before Allen’s eyes.

[Health: 12478/12478

Constitution: 311.22

Strength: 322.71

Agility: 321.21]

Although Doflamingo was very talented, Allen’s current base stats made fighting him incredibly simple.

Allen then ignored him and walked straight towards Rosinante.

When Allen stood before Rosinante, he looked at him calmly.

Rosinante put away his gun, enduring the pain in his body, and gave Allen a standard military salute.

“Na… Naval Headquarters Lieutenant Commander Rosinante, sa… salutes Fleet Admiral Allen!!” he said weakly.

After saying this, he was gasping for breath, his chest heaving violently.

Allen merely nodded slightly, then reprimanded him sternly:

“Lieutenant Commander Rosinante, as a Marine, do you know what you’ve done?!”

“Such actions will result in severe punishment from Marine Headquarters!”

“Are you worthy of Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who raised you?!”

Hearing Allen’s words, Rosinante hung his head in shame.

“Fleet Admiral Sengoku, huh…”

How could he not know what he had done…?

In front of the World Government and the Marines, stealing the “Op-Op Fruit” for his own selfish reasons was tantamount to betraying the Marines, and it indeed let down Sengoku’s fourteen years of nurturing.

However, Law was in critical condition. If he had to choose again, he still wouldn’t change his decision.

“Yes, I admit my mistake…” Rosinante said, his face full of shame.

Rosinante had already resigned himself to his fate. The Marines would naturally execute traitors or imprison them in Impel Down.

Unexpectedly, Allen’s words followed immediately.

Allen’s expression was serious, his gaze sharp, and he continued:

“Since you have confessed your guilt, by order of Fleet Admiral Sengoku!”

“Naval Headquarters Lieutenant Commander Rosinante, for abandoning his post and being uncontactable during his mission, will be escorted by Headquarters Admiral Allen to Marine Headquarters ‘Marineford’ to receive punishment!”

As soon as the words fell, Rosinante stared at Allen in a daze.

∑(っ°Д°;)っ No way, buddy?!

You really know how to downplay things.

I was ready to atone for my actions, and you’re telling me it’s just abandoning my post?

Abandoning his post what?

Undercover in the Donquixote Family, and not staying in the family the whole time?!

Rosinante’s eyes widened, various emotions crossing his face.

Even if he was an idiot, he knew that the other party was trying to get him off the hook.

His actions had nothing to do with Sengoku; any Marine of Vice Admiral rank could have detained him, or even killed him on the spot.

At this moment, Doflamingo, behind him, had veins throbbing on his forehead.

“Admiral Allen, this isn’t right!!”

He had initially thought, hearing Allen’s tone, that the other party would kill Rosinante.

Although it was a pity not to kill his own brother with his own hands, as long as he died, the secret of Dressrosa would be safe.

But, what was the result?!

I took off my pants, and this is what you show me?!

Allen turned his head slightly, looking at Doflamingo out of the corner of his eye.

“Is there something wrong with what I said?!”

Instantly, Doflamingo felt a chill down his spine, but he still forced himself to say:

“Rosinante stole the ‘Op-Op Fruit,’ shouldn’t you hold him accountable for that?!”

A smile appeared on Allen’s lips, and he spread his hands helplessly.

“I didn’t see any ‘Op-Op Fruit.’ I’m just here to take Rosinante back to Marine Headquarters as ordered.”

Seeing Allen deny it, Doflamingo clenched his jaw, his fists tightly balled.

No!

Rosinante absolutely couldn’t return to Marine Headquarters; if he did, everything would turn to dust.

So Doflamingo could only escalate the conflict.

Although he was extremely wary of Allen, he still said:

“Then, if the Marines sent Rosinante to infiltrate my Donquixote Family, are the Marines planning to move against a ‘Warlord of the Sea’ under the ‘World Government’?!”

Allen had to admit that Doflamingo was very clever, truly one of the “Underground Emperors” who had connections in both the light and dark worlds.

In response, Allen slowly walked up to Doflamingo and gently placed a hand on his forehead.

Then, in a tone of concern for a patient, he said:

“Aren’t you sick?!”

“Donquixote Rosinante isn’t your biological brother, is he?”

“What does it have to do with the Marines if he goes home to visit?”

Rosinante, standing by, was utterly dumbfounded. Could someone really spout such nonsense so earnestly?

And it actually sounded true!

This was the first time someone had described an undercover operation as visiting family… how refreshing!

Doflamingo’s veins throbbed on his forehead, but his remaining rationality still struggled to suppress the anger in his heart.

“Then, then what do you mean by him abandoning his post?!”

Allen shrugged helplessly, sighing faintly.

“It’s just that Rosinante went home to visit family and abandoned his post for six years, which made Fleet Admiral Sengoku furious.”

“ε=(´ο｀*))) Ah.”

“Poor me, I was on vacation and forced to work. Look, I didn’t even have time to change my clothes…”

At this moment, Doflamingo finally couldn’t bear it anymore and roared loudly.

“Allen! Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re a Marine Admiral!!”

Allen’s eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of sharpness flashing within them.

“Oh~ So, Doffy, you have an opinion…”
