Chapter 207 The Female Ghost in the Castle!
The Queen Anne's Revenge sailed through the wind and clouds, heading straight for the Holy Land of Mariegioa.
Doflamingo got off the ship dissatisfied. Facing this land, his heart was extremely complicated.
Both full of longing and deep hatred.
This place not only carries his endless desires, but also a mark of shame that cannot be erased in his life.
"go home!"
Xiao said two words expressionlessly, and then led the confused Doflamingo into a Celestial Dragon castle.
"???"
Doflamingo pointed in surprise at the fortress in front of him that was larger than his former home, and asked in disbelief:
"Is this your home? In a castle of this level, there are only direct descendants of the Five Old Stars..."
Xiao stood at the door and motioned Doflamingo to look towards the center of the garden.
There, a group of ladies were leisurely enjoying afternoon tea under a huge parasol.
Xiao pointed to one of the beautiful newlyweds with waterfall-like black hair and dazzling golden eyes, who was leaning lazily on the back of the chair, and introduced to Doflamingo:
"Jaygolucia
Roxani and the other ladies were surprised to see Xiao and Doflamingo and others following him.
When the ladies surrounding Roxani saw Xiao, their eyes instantly brightened.
"Your Majesty Teach!"
This group of Tianlong ladies behaved very well, kicking their skirts and saluting Xiao.
This is not just out of respect and politeness for Xiao. Everyone knows the conduct of the Tianlong people. They lower themselves so much just because Xiao holds the pure gold they crave in their hands.
For every Celestial Dragon, pure gold that can make people live forever is their dream treasure.
However, since the Jaygo Lucia family and the Five Old Stars strictly control the sales of pure gold and charge high prices, even if they are Celestial Dragons, only the family head and the eldest son can enjoy this precious resource first.
As for their second daughters or women from the branch lineage, they need to wait for the opportunity, but the chance is still slim. Therefore, they gather here in Roxani, hoping to obtain some pure gold by pleasing this lady.
But now that they saw Xiao himself, they abandoned Roxani without hesitation and gathered around Xiao, hoping to establish a good relationship with her so that they could have a chance to obtain pure gold in the future.
Xiao smiled and responded: "It disturbs your afternoon tea, please continue to enjoy it!"
Then, he also specially prepared some exquisite small gifts from the cyberpunk world to give to these noble ladies to express his respect and friendship for them.
These small gifts may not be expensive, but they are full of a sense of technology and the future, which makes these aristocratic ladies who are accustomed to luxurious life feel novel and have a real affection for Xiao, of course just a few.
When Roxani saw everyone here, they all ran to Xiao, and a heavy look of unhappiness suddenly appeared on her face.
"Inferior humans, can you take your people and die farther away? Don't make my castle dirty!!"
First she glanced at Xiao with disgust, and then doubled her disdain on Doflamingo and a group of pirates behind Xiao. She did not hide her disgust, and her voice revealed deep disgust.
"Haha, my little Sani, do you know what I like most about you? I just like your way of being aloof and never giving up!"
Xiao said as he took out a necklace inlaid with Arcturus crystal from his pocket.
Sunlight falls on the Arcturus crystal, causing the interior to sparkle with dazzling light. Not only is this crystal the world's largest source of energy, it is also one of the most beautiful gemstones.
Xiao is well aware of Roxani's character. She is a bitch who likes to be tough-talking and provocative.
She was like a cooked duck, her body was obviously soft, but her mouth was still extremely hard, refusing to admit defeat.
No matter where she is, she always tries to maintain that unattainable attitude, often calling her a lower-class human being, but in fact she is very easy to bully.
Even though he would be punished by Xiao Dali afterwards, he still refused to lower his attitude and focused on speaking harshly.
Especially when she found that the harder she spoke, the more powerful Xiao became, the more unattainable she became.
"Hmph, do you think this kind of junk thing can please me? This queen doesn't like it at all!!"
Roksani held her head high and said that she was not interested in this gift.
However, when her eyes really came into contact with the dazzling gem, her eyes lit up involuntarily.
Obviously, this crystal necklace is so beautiful and charming.
"Yes, yes, I will give you a better one next time!"
Xiao agreed repeatedly, but thought evilly in his heart that although the female brat said he looked down on her, if he really took it back, she would cry for a long time.
"Hmph~╭(╯^╰)╮"
Immediately afterwards, Roksani let out a disdainful snort, then couldn't wait to put on the crystal necklace and ran to show off to her good sisters.
When Xiao led everyone back to the inner reception room of the castle, Doflamingo asked doubtfully:
"The granddaughter of the God of War is actually willing to marry you? Are you kidding me...huh?"
His voice suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something:
"So, this is what you traded for pure gold, and you actually became a Celestial Dragon?"
Looking at the arrogant man in front of him, Doflamingo widened his eyes and asked with envy and jealousy.
"Of course!"
Xiao was seen leaning on the luxurious chaise longue with a smug and nonchalant look on his face, crossing his legs and saying:
"Besides, with this identity of a Celestial Dragon, it will be much easier to do things in the future. Do I need to explain to you the legitimacy of the Celestial Dragons?"
Although the Celestial Dragons may have been thieves who stole the Joyboy Fruit at first, after more than 800 years of rule, they have long become the undisputed masters of this world.
In the eyes of the civilians in the pirate world, the Celestial Dragons are a perfect yellow flag, high above, leading all living beings.
Even if the legendary Joyboy comes back to the world, I am afraid that he will not be able to shake the Celestial Dragons' deep-rooted orthodox status.
This is the huge advantage brought by the precipitation of time.
Let's look at the Straw Hat Boy Luffy who is now in the limelight. Although he has great strength and charm, and his father is the leader of the Revolutionary Army.
Whether it is Luffy's political skills or the ideological program advocated by the Revolutionary Army, it is essentially just an internal conflict between ancient feudal nobles.
