Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire - Chapter 684
King David
David climbed the stairs.
The soldiers guarding the entrance of the palace raised their spears, full of vigilance and nervousness.
They had seen the battle ahead.
This man was impossible to defeat.
But …
King Riku is inside!
They cannot not be loyal!
David gripped his sword and was about to raise it.
“Get out of the way…”
At this moment, a voice came from the palace hall.
“Let him in.”
The soldiers looked at each other, put down their spears and made way.
David loosened his grip on his sword and walked into the hall without looking at the soldiers.
Although the palace that originally belonged to Doflamingo was destroyed by several floors, there was still one floor that could be used.
In the hall, many soldiers stood in two rows, glaring at David who came in.
And in the deepest part, several people stood there.
Kyros, who was on one leg, and Rebecca, who was supporting him.
Beside him was King Riku and Viola.
As the original princess, once Doflamingo failed, she naturally recovered her identity.
King Riku, no, Riku Dolde was wearing very ordinary clothes and holding a crown in his hand as he quietly watched David walk over.
“Pansa…”
He sighed. “I didn’t expect you to be the last one to come in. It’s also… If it weren’t for your kindness eight hundred years ago, this throne would have been yours.”
“The Pansa family doesn’t need the throne.”
David said lightly, “What is needed is only the Lord’s pioneer. If the Lord makes me a king, I will become a king.”
“After eight hundred years, have you found a new master…”
Dodd smiled. “It’s good that you’re here. If it’s Pansa, controlling Dressrosa will definitely make the residents live a better life. I don’t deserve it. I’ve already lost the throne.”
With that, he handed the crown to David and said, “Take it, Dressrosa, I worship you as king.”
“No need for a crown…”
David said in a deep voice, “Knight, there is no need for a crown. I am the king, whether Dressrosa admits it or not, I will be the king. But I want to stabilize the situation in the country. Although you abdicate, you are still very popular…”
His helmet faced Viola. “Marry her to me and the Pansa will marry the Riku.”
As Moore said, his wisdom is not low and he knows how to make Dressrosa accept him as soon as possible.
In addition to his identity for 800 years, he desperately needed to admit it, and the one who could recognize him the most was actually King Riku.
If he married his daughter, naturally, he would obtain the entire Dressrosa.
“My daughter?” Dold was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Viola, then shook his head and said, “I will not take my daughter’s life in this matter. If you are not satisfied, then kill me, I only ask you to turn over my family.”
“I’m not that despicable.”
David shook his head and said, “You abdicated, and I became a king. I am proposing to you as King David. Whether you acknowledge it or not is up to you.”
“I…”
“Father, I promise.”
Before Dodd could speak, Viola stepped forward and said seriously: “I agree with his proposal.”
“Viola?” Dodd frowned.
“Don’t worry, I will marry someone eventually.”
Viola’s eyes flashed as she looked at David. “Will you think about the people?”
“Naturally.” David nodded and said, “Master asked me to become a king, so when I become a king, I will naturally do everything a king can do.”
Viola was silent for a moment and nodded. “This man can be entrusted.”
She is an ability user who can see through people.
When asking questions, even if that person spoke, she could see through him.
So she knew very well that David was a real knight.
A powerful person who thinks for the people and has means and ability.
Dressrosa, will radiate again in his hands.
… .
“Huh? Marrying Riku’s daughter? And taking Baby-5?”
In the Marine tent, listening to Moore’s report, Kuro said in surprise: “This guy looks so pedantic, how can he have such wisdom?”
He is clearly a stubborn person. In order to hold a sword or not, he can hesitate there. Why is he holding a sword so fast?
In terms of combat power, Kuro was not worried. Now, Dressrosa definitely could not stop him. Kyros’s aura was not as strong as that guy.
But this decisiveness made Kuro a little incredulous.
If Baby-5 is not caught, then so be it. There is no bounty in itself, and if it is taken by David, those factions loyal to Doflamingo also feel that this is a signal.
Don’t think that Doflamingo has really lost his heart after ruling for so many years. Before Sugar’s ability disappeared, there were a lot of people loyal to him.
If he marries Viola, the daughter of the King of the Force, the faction loyal to him will also follow David.
Ruling is actually a compromise.
Next, he would find a few more prototypes to kill and Dressrosa would be able to stabilize as quickly as possible.
And those examples happened to exist.
“It’s not bad. It’s quite fast. My taste is not bad.”
Kuro blew out smoke and said to Doflamingo, who was tied up, “What do you think, Doff?”
Doflamingo smiled and said, “Pansa has found his master and will naturally use his combat power.”
Ever since Pansa ‘owned’ Doflamingo, not only did he not object, but he also looked forward to it.
She did not know what he was expecting. It was inexplicable.
“Since the king has been chosen, I will go back and report.”
Lucci glanced at Doflamingo, shook his head, and walked out.
Unfortunately, Kim Jong-un has been staying in the tent and he really can’t find a chance to kill Doflamingo.
“Send a message to your family’s black and white pupil mask, don’t let me see him, otherwise, the sea is very dangerous…” Kuro said meaningfully.
Even if he had not completely chosen David before, that man actually tipped him off. This was not giving him any face.
Lucci paused for a moment and continued walking.
“Vice Admiral, King David said he wants you to wait for a while and attend his wedding,” Moore said.
“I don’t have time.”
Kuro bit his cigar and said, “Sang Sengoku is almost here. I will take this bird back with him and then I will go back. I have stayed for so long for this matter, there is no need to stay here. He is a king, what intersection can he have with me, a Marine.”
He came to Dressrosa and did not do anything, but he first came with Big Mom.
If it weren’t for Brother Yixiao, who knows how far this matter would go.
He couldn’t stop Lingling alone.
He only wanted to return to G-3 and hide in the fortress with strong defense. He did not care about anything else.
Anyway, there is a reliable king in Dressrosa.
Looking at David’s combat power and subsequent actions, he is reliable and not bad for the people. Enough.
Kuro did not expect to become a saint. He was not even a saint himself, so how could he force others?
