With the strongest bloodline, it’s not too much to have more children, right?

Chapter 257 Golden Fruit

There was a moment of silence on the noisy battlefield, and all the tense eyes fell on the tall figure on the battlefield.

Hercules took a deep breath, tensed his muscles, and expanded his arms. He concentrated all his strength in his arms and swung the warhammer suddenly!

The war hammer cut through the sky with a whistling sound and landed on the half-exposed stone head!

Bang! ! !

With a loud bang, cracks began to appear on the stone head centered on the point where the hammer landed. In a moment, gravel flew everywhere, raising a cloud of dust.

Pica felt a severe blow to his head, and before he could react, the pain penetrated his nerves, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and he passed out.

The petrified body began to change, and Pica returned to its original form and appeared on the ground.

With him was John Tibb, whose eyes were tightly closed.

The oppressive feeling disappeared, and Tib thought he had escaped death, and opened his eyes excitedly.

What came into view was Hercules's muscular body and the huge hammer that was bigger than his body.

"Someone is running away with it. It looks like it's a big fish!"

When the teasing voice came, Tib's body began to tremble, and he opened his mouth and stammered.

"I...I'm not, I..."

I don’t know what he thought of, but Tib’s words suddenly became more eloquent.

"I am a slave who was kidnapped here. Thank you for your rescue, brother. I will definitely repay you."

As Tib spoke, he moved closer to Hercules, his tears and snot mixed together, making him look pitiful.

Hercules frowned, grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

Feeling suffocated, Tib slapped Hercules' arm frantically, and the gold ring on his finger gleamed with the brilliance of money.

"Slave, gold ring?"

Hercules shook his head in disdain, grabbed Tib's hand and slammed it down hard.

Bang!

Debris flew everywhere, Tib's eyes rolled back, his arms drooped limply, and he completely lost consciousness.

"If you're not honest, leave it to Mona."

Hercules shook his head. Thinking of Mona's torture process, this strong guy couldn't help but shudder.

The battle continued until night. Although the members of the organ trafficking organization were just a bunch of small fry, they were too numerous to be defeated.

Even if Hercules and his men were good at fighting, it still took them a long time to eliminate these guys.

Both organ trafficking and slave trade touched upon the minefields of Rorschach and his team, so no one showed mercy. Only a few people who fainted survived by chance.

Tib's identity was also known to everyone during the subsequent interrogation, including Pica and their transaction.

Night on the Watcher.

Zel was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. On the table was a Den Den Mushi wearing a pink feather coat and sunglasses.

"Zel, Pica is my family. Tell me, what are the conditions?"

A calm voice came from the Den Den Mushi, but if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of anxiety.

Zell didn't say anything, but Cohen spoke for him.

"Doflamingo, right? This is the second time you have provoked our Adrien family. Can I consider you an enemy?"

Cohen's voice gradually grew louder, and the word "enemy" was especially clear.

The voice from the Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, and soon, a laugh was heard.

"Fufufufu! I'm sorry. I apologize for my family's rudeness. I wonder if you can give me a chance. I'm willing to trade my devil fruit for Pica."

"Dover!"

As the apology was made, there were sounds of surprise from the Den Den Mushi, but they soon stopped.

"Family? I didn't expect that a man who killed his father with his own hands would care so much about his family."

The plain voice was like a stone dropped into the lake, causing huge waves.

"Fufufufu, that's all in the past, and I don't consider that idiot to be my family."

The voice on the Den Den Mushi remained calm, not angry at Cohen's words.

Cohen glanced at Zell and spoke after receiving his instructions.

"The Gold-Gold Fruit should be in your hand, right?"

"As expected of the Emperor of the Sea, he is always well-informed."

"I'd like you to agree to the Gold-Gold Fruit in exchange for your family, right?"

There was silence for a moment, then a voice came from the Den Den Mushi: "Of course!"

"In that case, go to Wano Country with the Gold-Gold Fruit and someone will hand it over to you."

Just as Cohen was about to turn off the Den Den Mushi, Doflamingo's voice rang out again.

"I think we can still work together."

Cohen paused in turning off the Den Den Mushi and asked in confusion.

"What cooperation?"

"The underground world of the North Sea. I can help you open up the market in the North Sea."

A confident voice came, and Cohen, who was undecided, looked at Zel.

Zel, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up: "You are very good. I admire people like you who dare to fight for opportunities."

"Fufufufu, thank you for the compliment!"

Zell then spoke, "Go to Wano Country, someone will talk to you."

"Happy cooperation!"

After Doflamingo finished speaking, Zel added, "I really don't like organ trafficking and the slave trade. Of course, the same goes for drugs."

Doflamingo on the Den Den Mushi side was stunned for a second, but quickly reacted.

"me too."

With the last words, Cohen hung up the Den Den Mushi.

"Dad, should we cooperate with him?"

Zel nodded and said, "Business in the Four Seas is much bigger than the Grand Line. We'll be staying in the West Sea for a long time, so it would be great to have someone help us open up markets in other seas."

"Stay for a long time?" Cohen's questioning voice sounded.

Zel looked at him, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the door.

"Wano Country is too small, and Sky Island isn't big enough."

A calm voice came, and Cohen, who was standing in place, understood what was happening. His pupils widened, and his red eyes flashed with brilliance.

…………

Beihai, the residence of the Don Quixote family.

"Hey, Dover, are we really going to give them the Gold-Gold Fruit? That's the Gold-Gold Fruit."

Trebol had an incredible expression on his face and moved closer to Doflamingo, with his snot threatening to fall on Doflamingo's face at any time.

Doflamingo put his foot on Trebol's chest and said

"Of course, Pica is my family."

After Doflamingo finished speaking, the eyes of all the cadres lit up, and their respect for Doflamingo increased even more.

"and……"

Doflamingo's mouth corners curled up, and his true self hidden under the sunglasses gleamed with brilliance.

"With the Sea Emperor as our backer, the underground world of the North Sea is ours. Once we have sufficient strength, it will be time for us to head to the new world."
