One Piece: Lord of Calamity

Conqueror's Haki!

The king's disposition, possessed by one in a million!

This inexplicable brat actually possesses power that I myself have never had?

Bullet's eyes widened, filled with disbelief!

This is power just like Lord Roa's!

This brat! This brat who's as weak as a stray dog on the street!

What a joke!

Why him?

Why did he awaken a power I've never even possessed?

Could it be, could it be that I'm inferior to him? Will I have to submit to him in the future?

Will he be Lord Roa's chief follower from now on?

This cannot be allowed!!

Intense jealousy and rage bloomed in Bullet's heart at this moment.

He was a soldier loyal only to Lord Roa, but he also considered himself a strong man second only to Lord Roa!

And now, this guy seemed to be trying to climb above him!

Due to Roa's intervention, Bullet, who had never experienced major setbacks, plunged into extreme emotions he had never felt before.

"Hm?"

Roa turned his head in surprise.

What's going on?

Why does Bullet have anger comparable to Doflamingo? And an inexplicable jealousy too?

Then.

"Buzz!!"

A terrifying aura surged forth like a tsunami.

Huh?

Roa was a bit bewildered.

What's happening?

Does the awakening of Conqueror's Haki have resonance too?

With Bullet's strength, his awakened Conqueror's Haki was not a minor commotion like Doflamingo's. Passersby far down the street foamed at the mouth and fainted, and residents in houses along the street suddenly suffered collateral damage.

Even Doflamingo, who was ecstatic from gaining great power, felt his head go blank, as if he had been punched hard in the head, stumbling backward.

"Alright, Bullet, that's impressive enough."

Roa spoke up. "Hold back a little. Can't you see our new colleague is about to collapse?"

Only then did Bullet realize that he too had awakened Conqueror's Haki.

The anger and jealousy in his heart had vanished in an instant.

"Sorry, Lord Roa, I was a bit too excited!"

Bullet's face indeed showed uncontrollable excitement, and he awkwardly reined in his Conqueror's Haki.

This was only natural!

Of course, he would also be a Conqueror's Haki user!

Doflamingo's released Conqueror's Haki had already dissipated, as he was indeed very weak, and his Conqueror's Haki was poor in both quality and quantity.

He looked at Bullet in some horror.

He didn't know what Conqueror's Haki was, but he knew that this guy was extremely strong!

"So, Doffy,"

Roa said earnestly, "You've gained power. What are you going to do next?"

Doflamingo paused, then his lips curved into a grin. "Fufufu! That's right! That's right! Now I can finally pay back those guys properly!!"

The small child's face held a crazed smile.

Roa just shook his head.

Sigh, dysfunctional family.

"Doffy, the ability you possess is called the Paramecia Pile-Pile Fruit, which allows you to combine all non-living things. Use it well; don't disappoint me."

Roa's words were meaningful.

"Combine?"

Doflamingo nodded slightly. "Fufufu! Understood!"

He looked up at Roa. "I know where the city's armory is. Take me there!"

Roa nodded in satisfaction. A very good idea.

"Johnson, you go with him."

Roa said. "Protect him, don't let him die. But if he tries to run away and not fulfill the agreement, cut off his head."

The mindless Johnson only acted on instinct, and Roa's command was an instinct carved into his very genes.

Doflamingo instinctively glanced at Johnson.

When his eyes met Johnson's soulless, black hole-like gaze, he involuntarily shivered.

What kind of monster is this?

But it didn't matter. Whatever kind of monster it was, as long as it could help him, anything was fine!

Doflamingo scurried away, and Johnson leaped across rooftops, chasing after him.

"What do you think of that kid, Bullet?"

Roa watched Doflamingo's retreating figure, asking casually.

Bullet paused, then hesitated.

Should I tell the truth?

Will Lord Roa be angry?

But as Lord Roa's loyal dog, he absolutely couldn't deceive him.

Bullet said in a deep voice, "Although he awakened Conqueror's Haki, there's nothing remarkable about him."

"Hahahaha! An accurate assessment, Bullet!"

Roa laughed heartily. "Doffy is just a paper tiger."

A second-rate Doffy, paired with a second-rate Clank-Clank Fruit, is a decent match.

At least it's better than the String-String Fruit, right?

The Clank-Clank Fruit, at least, could genuinely boost power significantly.

"Let's go, let's walk around more."

Roa said.

It had been thirteen years since he arrived in this world, and he rarely walked in such a normal city anymore.

It was either a resort like Hachinosu Island or a living paradise like the Land of Endless War. The everyday life of ordinary people had been far removed for a long time.

However, this leisurely stroll didn't last too long.

Boom!

An explosion suddenly rang out in the distance.

Then, frightened screams rose and fell like waves, gradually approaching from afar.

Roa took a deep breath. "Hmm, not bad, Doffy!"

In the center of this small city.

A steel monster was wantonly spewing flames.

This monster was over two meters tall, entirely composed of steel, with numerous gun barrels and cannon muzzles on its surface.

Now, bullets sprayed from the gun barrels, and cannonballs flew from the muzzles, indiscriminately bringing destruction and death to this place.

The soldiers in the city did try to retaliate, but the monster's steel body was simply beyond their ability to shake.

"Fufufu! Die, you scums!"

Doflamingo's crazed laughter echoed from within the steel monster.

This is power!

To freely torment others, instead of being tormented!

This is what I want! Now, this is the scene I want!

Revenge against these scums who killed his mother and made him suffer!

"Go to hell and repent for your crimes! You lowlifes!!"

Although large beads of sweat were forming on his forehead, and his physical exertion was considerable, Doflamingo still refused to stop.

His anger, his resentment, were far from fully unleashed!

However, it was at this moment.

"Doffy!!"

A hoarse roar came from behind.

Doflamingo froze for a moment, then instantly turned his head.

In the distance, a gaunt, disheveled middle-aged man cried out pleadingly, "Enough! This revenge is enough! Don't continue! Don't let the chain of hatred continue!"

"Father?"

Doflamingo's body stiffened, then he began to tremble all over. "That's right! That's right!! I almost forgot!"

The machine monster suddenly turned and strode backward.

"I almost forgot the root of all my hatred!!"

The man paused, then revealed a somewhat relieved expression.

"You caused everything!!"

Roaring, all his anger finally erupted like a volcano at this moment.

Goodbye, Father, and goodbye, my weakness!
