Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 64: No one is qualified to make me take a detour (Third update, please collect fresh flowers and votes)

Meanwhile, on the Marine battleship that the prisoners had taken over.

"Judicial Island, Naval Headquarters... We must choose between these two," Doflamingo squinted his eyes as he looked at the map he had snatched from the Marine battleship.

Enies Lobby, Naval Headquarters, and Impel Down were all located in a peculiar sea current.

The World Government had spent a huge amount of money to establish a massive gate among the three, which affected the sea current.

Unless the Gate of Justice was opened to disrupt the sea current, it would endlessly circle among the three, never able to escape.

Enies Lobby and Naval Headquarters were still connected to the outside world.

But Impel Down was completely sealed within the Calm Belt!

Before the Marines developed ships that could navigate the Calm Belt, it was practically a death trap!

Even now, it was still a death trap - the ships from Impel Down couldn't navigate the Calm Belt!

That was one of the reasons why Impel Down was known as an iron wall.

When coming out of Impel Down, the prisoners had the advantage and could easily open the Gate of Justice to escape by boat.

But when going out...

Throughout history, only one person had escaped from Impel Down - Golden Lion.

But Golden Lion was a user of the Lion Fruit ability and could naturally fly, so he didn't need to forcefully break through the Gate of Justice.

However, for the people present...

Doflamingo's gaze turned to the surrounding prisoners. He could fly, so he didn't need to worry, but his abilities were limited. He could escape on his own, but not with his subordinates.

However...

"How did he manage to reach Impel Down?" Doflamingo looked at Gilgamesh. "Could it be that he also has the ability to fly?"

Hmm, it turned out he did.

The treasure of the king: Vimana.

The royal throne held by Gilgamesh, a radiant boat made of gold and emerald that could soar through the sky.

Powered by a solar crystal fueled by mercury, it could fly at high speeds, defying the laws of physics. It had powerful attack capabilities, equipped with various treasures and even ancient nuclear warheads.

Of course, it was out of the question for Gilgamesh to fly with others. Although Vimana could accommodate them, how could the king allow his subordinates to ride?

"Young master, where should we break through?" Trafalgar Law asked.

Doflamingo withdrew his gaze from the map and looked at Gilgamesh.

"Oh, my king, where should we break through?"

His voice carried a hint of arrogance. Since they were outside, it meant he had obtained his freedom.

Naturally, he also had some confidence.

At the same time, there was also some hostility towards this 'king' in his heart.

The gazes of the surrounding prisoners also turned towards Gilgamesh.

Although Doflamingo had recruited some subordinates during their escape, many strong individuals were unwilling to serve under a prisoner.

Everyone was a prisoner, and you were also someone else's subordinate. Why should we listen to you?

Especially Shiryu, who directly stated, "I will only follow interesting men," and refused Doflamingo's request to serve him.

As a result, most of the prisoners from the fifth and fourth levels followed Doflamingo.

But the people from the sixth level, at least nominally, served under Gilgamesh.

As for the third, second, and first levels...

Sorry, they were too weak and hardly had the qualifications to board the ship.

But now, regardless of who it was, they all looked at Gilgamesh, ready to listen to his words.

Whether it was the pirates who served Doflamingo or the strong fighters from the sixth level, they all did the same!

Gilgamesh stood on the highest observation deck of the battleship, lowering his gaze as if he was looking at something.

And then...

"Mongrel, which is the first gate we will pass through?" Doflamingo was momentarily stunned before realizing that Gilgamesh was calling him. He furrowed his brows and answered, "Naval Headquarters."

"Oh," Gilgamesh nodded. "Then let's break through from there."

"No one is qualified to make me take a detour."

Break through from Naval Headquarters?

That was the place with the strongest World Government forces!

The surrounding pirates instantly changed their expressions.

Doflamingo's face also changed slightly. As a Celestial Dragon, he naturally knew what the Celestial Dragons were thinking.

Break through from Naval Headquarters?

Did he even know that above Naval Headquarters was the headquarters of the World Government?

But before he could speak, he suddenly heard a hearty laughter.

"Interesting, interesting, truly interesting!" Shiryu laughed heartily, gripping his famous sword, Raiu. "Indeed, only by following you can such interesting things happen!"

"Naval Headquarters... I've been wanting to break through there for a long time!" Bacchus Basco, drunk and hiccuping, said with a boozy breath.

Doflamingo's expression kept changing, and in the end, he gritted his teeth.

"I don't care what happens anymore!"
