Chapter 213 Flamingo's Invitation
Beddyk, leading the Beautiful Women, followed behind Nicholas. They hadn't been out of the Club for long when they were stopped by a strangely dressed man.
The man who stopped them was wearing a high-collared Windbreaker, a Mask with round lenses on his face, and hair that stuck up like a hedgehog. He had stitched wounds on both sides of his eyes, and his clothes were decorated with gears and other Metal Decoration, giving off a Steampunk vibe.
"'Armaments King', Beddyk?"
The man asked inquisitively.
"Who are you?" Beddyk asked impatiently. He couldn't stand tall in front of the Celestial Dragons or Nicholas, but in front of Ordinary Person, he was the famous Armaments King of Shambles, one of the Heavenly Kings of the Underworld Dark Forces.
"My name is Gladius," the man replied. "You probably don't know me, after all, I'm just a nobody. But if I mention my Boss's name, you'll definitely know it. He's very interested in you and the person behind you, and would like to invite you to meet him."
"Who is your Boss?"
Beddyk asked.
"Donquixote Doflamingo." Gladius slightly raised his chin when he said this name, with a hint of pride.
After all, this name could be said to be as famous as Germa 66 in the North Blue, and even in the North Blue, as long as the Donquixote Family was mentioned, many small Pirate would give a thumbs up and say "awesome".
Beddyk took a deep look at Gladius. He had naturally heard of the name Doflamingo, but not the fame that Gladius thought he had earned in the North Blue leading the Donquixote Family.
But because of Donquixote's former Status as a Celestial Dragons.
As for the Donquixote Family in the North Blue, in Beddyk's eyes, they were just small fries. Neither their financial resources nor the number of their subordinates were a match for him. And who did Beddyk deal with all day long?
Either Monarch of various countries in the Four Seas, or Great Pirate of the Grand Line. What was the Donquixote Family?
Before Beddyk could tell his men to drive away this idiot, Nicholas spoke up, "Beddyk, go and meet that North Blue Boss."
Although he didn't know why Nicholas wanted to meet that Doflamingo, Beddyk quickly made a decision with his shrewd mind.
"Lead the way, I want to see what that famous Flamingo from the North Blue wants from me."
In Gladius's opinion, Beddyk only hesitated slightly after the Masked Man finished speaking before nodding in agreement.
Unexpectedly, Gladius did not take Nicholas and Beddyk to a Bar or Restaurant, but to a Construction Site that looked like it was under construction. Gladius's Boss, the future joker of the Underworld, the Seven Warlords of the Sea Donquixote Doflamingo, was standing in the Construction Site.
At this time, Doflamingo was already close to three meters tall, and his short blond hair was extremely eye-catching against the backdrop of his pink Haori Coat. Under the Coat was an unbuttoned white Shirt, revealing Doflamingo's strong Muscle, matched with his Cropped Pants and pointed Leather Shoes worn without Socks.
Just looking at this outfit, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Doflamingo was a rogue gangster, no wonder he was called a Sea rogue.
At this time, Doflamingo was standing in the center of the Construction Site, moving his fingers like manipulating puppets. Not far in front of him, several well-dressed Masters were holding Iron Hammer, Iron Spade, Trowel and other Construction Tools, while begging for mercy and resisting loudly, they were wielding the Tool in their hands and fighting each other.
Around these Masters, there were also many Worker gathered. These People looked at the Masters fighting in the arena, with fear on their faces, but also a hint of pleasure.
The Iron Spade slapped on the Head, the Trowel slashed on the Form, and the Iron Hammer smashed on the knee, causing these People to cry out in agony. But this not only did not elicit sympathy, but instead made Doflamingo laugh happily.
Without turning his Head, he knew that Gladius had brought People over, so he hooked his finger, and the Heads of the two surviving Masters suddenly soared into the Sky. The Headless Corpse still walked forward two steps under inertia before falling to the ground with a thud, and from their necks, Column of Blood sprayed out.
"Señor, go and make up the Wage for the Worker and let them continue Construction. Also, let Diamante take a trip to send those guys' Family down to accompany them."
After Doflamingo finished his instructions, he turned to look at Beddyk, and said with a smile, "'Armaments King' Beddyk, when I heard your name in the North Blue, I wanted to meet you, but unfortunately, I never had the Opportunity. But now we finally have the Opportunity to chat more."
"I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"
Beddyk asked calmly, joking, the Big Shot was standing behind him now, let alone a small fry from the North Blue, even if a Navy Admiral came, he Beddyk would dare to challenge him.
"This is not the Place to talk about Things, come with me."
After Doflamingo finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the other side of the Construction Site. Gladius signaled Beddyk to follow.
Beddyk followed Doflamingo around a corner, and only then did he discover that on the other side of the Construction Site, facing the Sunlight, there were several Lounge Chair placed, with Parasol and several boxes of Wine next to them, and not far away, there was a Grill grilling.
At this time, several Member of the Donquixote Family were basking in the Sun.
Doflamingo lay down on the chair by himself, and said to Beddyk, "What I want to talk about is, of course, Business, Big Business. I like to deal with smart and interesting People the most. I will be here for a while. If the Boss behind you comes to Sabaody Archipelago, after you meet him, remember to tell him about this."
Doflamingo adjusted the angle of the Parasol, and then suddenly turned his Head to look at Beddyk, who frowned after hearing his words, "Okay, if there's nothing else, you can leave."
Beddyk was immediately unhappy when he heard this. What did this guy take him for!
It could be said that Doflamingo's actions made Beddyk's first impression of him quite bad.
"Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Looking at Beddyk standing there, Doflamingo frowned. In his opinion, Beddyk, the seemingly glamorous new Big Shot of the Underworld in the eyes of outsiders, was just a Dog put on the table by some Big Shot.
After all, he had done a detailed background investigation. This person was just a Slave Hunting Team Captain before, and later, through various coincidences and the support of his current Boss behind the scenes, he had reached his current position.
"Tell me, what do you want to do by meeting me?"
Nicholas took the Chain led by Beddyk, walked to a Lounge Chair, changed to a comfortable posture and sat down, then said to Doflamingo.
Seeing this scene, Doflamingo let out an exaggerated Laughter, "Fuffuffuffuffu, I really didn't expect it, a Big Shot like you would actually appear under the noses of those guys, I wonder if they can still sleep soundly after knowing this News."
Seemingly seeing Nicholas's indifferent attitude, Doflamingo also said seriously to Nicholas after laughing.
"I have a Plan, I wonder if you are interested?"
"What Plan?"
Nicholas asked with great interest.
Doflamingo pointed to the woman with dull Eyes standing next to Nicholas.
"You want to partner with me to monopolize Human Trafficking?"
Nicholas seemed uninterested, he was really not interested in Human Trafficking or anything.
Doflamingo didn't mind Nicholas's attitude, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he pointed to the Construction Site behind him and said, "After it's built, it will be the largest Auction House in Sabaody Archipelago, and even the entire Grand Line. In the future, all Slave auctions in Sabaody Archipelago will be held there!"
"I originally wanted to find other People to cooperate with, but if I can cooperate with you, there is no need to find other People."
Doflamingo stretched out his Right Hand and clenched it forcefully towards the Sky, "Your Armaments Business, plus my Human Trafficking and the Channels I control, as well as your powerful Military Force, we can use this as a link to cooperate and monopolize all the Underworld Business in the first half of the Grand Line."
Doflamingo propped up his upper Form, looked at Nicholas who also looked over after hearing these words, and said ambitiously, "At that time, the entire first half of the Grand Line, and even the Underworld Transaction of the New World will be controlled by us. At that time, we can even establish a Force comparable to the World Government and the Marine! Then this Sea Area should be our Dominion!"
"Well, not bad Thoughts, I will let Beddyk talk to you about the specifics. Also, to be honest, your Strength is really a bit weak. I hope to see Devil Fruit Awakening you next time we meet."
After speaking, Nicholas picked up a piece of Grilled Meat brought over by Diamante, and turned to leave with Beddyk.
Leaving Doflamingo in place with a stunned expression.
"Diamante, am I really weak?"
Doflamingo asked Diamante, who was holding an empty Plate, with veins popping on his forehead.
"Dofla..."
"Forget it."
Before Diamante could speak, Doflamingo waved his hand, then lay back on the Lounge Chair, no one knew what he was thinking behind those Glasses.
