Chapter 36 Hunting Operation
New World, a certain sea area.
The sky above the island was covered with heavy thunderclouds, and the dark sea of clouds was like a huge hood, pressing down on the earth.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the lightning was swimming in the sea of clouds, like a dragon roaring in it.
The white birdcage covered the entire island.
The jungle-covered island had turned into a sea of fire at this time. The jungle and the land were full of pits and charred huge pits. The burning flames were surging with billowing black smoke, which filled the surroundings.
On the fallen trees and the charred land, there were faintly visible crisscrossing terrifying cuts.
"Damn... who are you... anyway..."
Filcas stood there with a charred body, his body bloody and fleshy, as if his skin and muscles were cut off piece by piece, like a bloody man.
"The navy... the pirates... actually joined forces..."
His face was full of disbelief.
With his powerful physical skills, he fought his way into the New World from the South China Sea. His bounty rose steadily and even exceeded 100 million Baileys.
He had a thousand subordinates under his command, and he seemed to be a strong force even in the New World.
But just when he was ambitious and ready to do something big, he ran into those two guys.
Everything was over.
An unprecedented despair stained his pupils.
In the reflection of his pupils, there was blood and body fragments everywhere, and a pirate ship cut in half on the coast.
The pirate group he had worked so hard to build was slaughtered by those two monster-like guys in less than three minutes!
Blood gushed out of his mouth and nose, and Philcas's bloodshot pupils stared at the figure slowly falling in the sky.
Pink feather coat, short blond hair, a rebellious smile on his lips... Doflamingo bent his fingers and moved them, controlling the invisible silk thread, and walked towards the unlucky guy step by step.
The silk thread that bound Philgas' body quickly tightened, cutting his skin easily like a sharp blade, leaving a grid-like wound.
Philgas trembled with pain, and he shouted hoarsely:
"Why!?"
"We obviously haven't met before!!"
He couldn't figure it out no matter what, he had never met this blond guy... Why did he come directly to his door and slaughter his pirate group!
"Hehehehehehe, why?"
Doflamingo raised a mocking grin at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of disdain and ridicule when he looked at Philgas.
"What a stupid question... Do pirates need a reason to fight each other? There is only one throne of hegemony, and only the last one to survive can reach the top."
"Of course, if you must find a reason... I can only say that you are on a list of people who must die."
A list of people who must die?
Philcas was stunned, with confusion and bewilderment in his eyes.
What list... I didn't do anything!
But before he could react, the blond boy in front of him had already flicked his fingers.
Swish! !
A bunch of silk threads wrapped with armed color domineering, like a sniper rifle bullet, went straight through his heart.
A large piece of blood mist exploded on his chest, his body twitched unconsciously, and the vitality in his pupils quickly faded.
Philcas, nicknamed Blood Shadow Swordsman, bounty of 117 million Baileys... Die!
As he died, a flash of blue lightning suddenly shot down from the sea of clouds in the sky, passed through the gaps in the birdcage, and quickly gathered on the ground into a powerful and deep figure.
"How many people are on the list?"
Doflamingo asked coldly without even looking at the corpse. He turned his head to look at the flying squirrel with lightning lingering on his body.
With the movement of his fingers, the white birdcage covering the entire island slowly shrank and faded like a tide, and finally disappeared without a trace.
"There are a total of 17 people on the list, and four people are still alive."
The flying squirrel took out a piece of paper, flipped it open and took a look, and said lightly.
He glanced at the bloody scene around him that was like purgatory on earth and frowned.
The pieces of the pirates' bodies were everywhere, the blood dyed the ground red, and even the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"Your methods are too cruel, Doflamingo."
Since this guy left the North Sea, his hostility and murderous intent have become more and more intense, as if the shackles on the beast have gradually been broken, and his ferocity has been completely aroused.
Taking killing as a pleasure, and even enjoying the pleasure of torturing the enemy, this is not a good sign.
Doflamingo shrugged and sneered:
"If you don't like it, leave the next action to me alone."
The flying squirrel shook his head and said indifferently:
"No, to be safe, I have to work with you... The guys on the list are all pirates with bounties of over 100 million. Their strength should not be underestimated. If you are not careful, they will capsize in the gutter."
"If the news of our hunting of the candidates for the King's Seven Warlords of the Sea is leaked, it will lead to unpredictable consequences."
Doflamingo sneered:
"How could that happen?"
"Once the birdcage is opened, everyone in the cage will become my prey, and no one can escape."
The flying squirrel glanced at him and suddenly said:
"There are always special cases... For example, the birdcage has no meaning to me."
Doflamingo's expression froze, but he had no way to refute it.
If it was someone else, Doflamingo would have killed him directly.
But this guy is different.
This guy's Thunder Fruit ability is terribly powerful, especially after the elementalization, it has the speed and destructive power of lightning, and the birdcage can't trap him at all.
Even Doflamingo vaguely realized that even if he entered the new world and mastered Haki, he would not be this guy's opponent.
And the most important point is that even he has mastered Haki, what about this guy?
Doflamingo didn't dare to gamble.
Looking at Doflamingo's changing expression, the flying squirrel said lightly:
"You don't need to be too repulsive to my existence. After all, it will be good for you to clear the list of candidates for the Seven Warlords of the Sea."
"I don't deny that your strength has become much stronger. Coupled with the special nature of the birdcage, it is not a big problem to hunt the people on the list, but it is always right to be careful."
"Darren once said that he learned to be careful in the North Sea over the years. Women and children can be careless, but men can't... Doflamingo, I'm helping you."
"Besides, this is Darren's order."
Hearing the last sentence, Doflamingo fell silent.
I have to admit that his birdcage and the large-scale bombing of this guy's thunder fruit did play an extremely amazing power in the previous hunting operation.
For a full half month, they used their respective flying abilities to hunt these so-called "Seven Warlords of the Sea Candidates" all over the sea according to the names on the list.
This is their 12th target.
Each action will never last more than five minutes.
No matter how many troops or pirate ships the enemy has... the result is the same.
The birdcage falls, the thunder bombs, and the target is terminated... The cooperation between the two is even more and more proficient.
Even though they knew that the Navy and the World Government were investigating this matter, they did not find any flaws.
The signal was blocked, the scene was burned, and the body was torn to pieces... Even the professional CP department members of the World Government could not find any clues.
After a few seconds of silence, Doflamingo turned around and walked towards the coast.
"Let's go, aren't there still 4? Don't waste time."
The flying squirrel looked at his back and narrowed his eyes.
On the arm hidden under the sleeve of the military uniform, a touch of solemn black quickly faded.
