One Piece: Mandala Swordsman

Chapter 376 7. Martial Arts Masters can be established, and naturally, they can also be deposed.

"He's actually quite capable."

Roman chuckled as he looked at a "freshly printed" newspaper.

The article above is about the news that the pirate Doflamingo has been invited to become a Shichibukai.

This seems to have come somewhat suddenly.

After all, Doflamingo has provoked the Navy in far too many ways.

The G5 fortress incident is also inextricably linked to him.

But the former gangsters have somehow transformed into the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Moreover, this was under severe pressure.

At this point, Roman had to admit that he was quite capable.

Due to his intervention, Vergo committed suicide.

Roman also ruined his trading channels with Kaido.

Furthermore, it was because of the exposure of this matter that Crane relentlessly pursued the Don Quixote family.

Akainu has also made his move.

Sengoku also sincerely hoped to destroy that family.

Most people, faced with such a "perfect start," would probably have to say goodbye to the world much sooner.

But Doflamingo is indeed intelligent.

He also has enough courage.

In a situation where it seemed like everything would have to be restarted, they managed to open up another path.

He actually hijacked a ship carrying celestial gold and negotiated with the World Government.

And the world government agreed.

They just agreed!

If it were anyone else, they would probably have died several times over.

The bloodline of the Celestial Dragons is truly a get-out-of-jail-free card.

No, it's probably even more useful than a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Red-haired Shanks is like that, and so is the Heavenly Demon.

The descendants of God are indeed treated favorably.

The world government at least treats them as human beings.

It was a rare moment that one could feel a touch of pampering.

However, this move will likely displease the navy.

After all, Doflamingo is no good.

Roman leaned back on the sofa, listening to music, completely oblivious to the vibrations coming from upstairs.

If I'm not mistaken, it seems that Admiral Akainu is throwing another tantrum.

Back then, the G5 Fortress, the Science Department, and the Don Quixote family were all connected, and Roman uncovered them all.

Not to mention G5, who bears primary responsibility, even Kizaru, who shares some responsibility, learned a good lesson from it.

So in the end, Akainu also got a good lesson.

Sengoku knew that Akainu might genuinely be unaware of the situation, but he felt indebted to him.

It's likely that Admiral Akainu still has a vivid memory of that incident.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten so angry.

Roman listened to the commotion upstairs and drank another cup of tea.

A temporary calm.

Hmm, I guess it's the finance department calling to send him a bill.

Roman was very familiar with this process.

Then Roman heard another "bang".

It's estimated that Admiral Akainu hung up the phone in anger.

Okay, he will now leave the office and head straight for the Marshal's office.

It's probably about getting the Fleet Admiral to come up with a way to prevent Doflamingo from becoming a Shichibukai.

But it's probably useless.

Roman glanced at the newspaper again.

It is clear that the World Government has negotiated with Morgans again.

Doflamingo has already gone to Dressrosa and become the emperor.

What does this mean?

This shows that Doflamingo had already made arrangements with the World Government.

Then it's not a question of whether the Navy agrees or not.

Because the World Government didn't consult with us; it was just a notification.

However, with just one casual decision, Dressrosa was in deep trouble.

The Riku royal family is likely to be imprisoned.

Based on Doflamingo's methods, he should have already made King Riku repent for his grave mistake, and then seized the opportunity to rise up.

He appeared before everyone as a savior to win over the hearts of the people.

This method is indeed foolproof.

Hope that springs from the depths of despair can indeed hold people’s hearts firmly.

Having experienced the despair of being on the verge of death, Doflamingo naturally knew how to manipulate people's hearts.

Just as Roman was putting herself in Doflamingo's shoes and thinking about her next plan, someone entered her office and reported that Fleet Admiral Sengoku wanted to see her.

Looking for oneself?

What do you want from me?

Shouldn't the Fleet Admiral be engaged in a heated debate with Admiral Akainu right now?

How could he still be thinking about looking for himself?

……

No, you come to me with this kind of problem?

As expected, when Roman entered the office, he saw Akainu suppressing his anger and Sengoku with a serious expression.

She quickly understood why they were looking for her!

To put it simply, do you have a way to prevent Doflamingo from becoming a Shichibukai?

Huh? This...

If she really had a way, the first thing she would do is to remove Mihawk's title as a Shichibukai.

However, judging from their expressions, they both seem to be quite dissatisfied with Doflamingo.

They are also dissatisfied with the World Government's decision.

Akainu did this because Doflamingo had taught him a lesson, and Akainu, who is always strict with discipline, could not tolerate such an insult.

The Warring States period is probably the reason for Rosinandi's death.

Rosinante is probably dead.

After all, the Op-Op Fruit never ended up in the hands of the Navy, the World Government, or Doflamingo.

The reason for this result lies with Rosinante.

Moreover, Rosinante should have died at the hands of Doflamingo.

This explains why the Warring States period acted unusually this time.

If there is any legitimate reason to stop Doflamingo, he will not be lenient.

"Although you asked me this, I really don't have any good solutions. This is something the World Government has agreed to, and it's probably not that easy to change it."

Is that really the case?

Neither of them was too surprised by this answer.

They were only clinging to a sliver of hope.

After all, Roman has always had a lot of ideas.

"But it's not entirely hopeless, we'll just have to wait."

"wait?"

"Yes."

A crown prince can be established, and he can be deposed.

If you can be appointed as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, then you can also be deposed.

"Doflamingo is not a loyal guy. He is quite cunning. I don't think he will be a good Shichibukai."

"And that's precisely the time to seize upon his mistake."

"Although we can't stop him from becoming a Shichibukai, can't we just remove him from the Shichibukai position after he becomes one?"
