Chapter 2
There are thousands of beautiful women in the One Piece world, but very few lolis.
The first one Kam thought of was Sugar, one of Doflamingo's subordinates!
Her age is perfectly legal, but her appearance...
One word: Tender!
"That's the task?!"
Kam patted his chest and laughed. He had thought it would be something incredible.
In the end, this world is ruled by fists. Once he becomes a benevolent king of a country and builds a solid popular foundation, outsiders would find it hard to direct their anger at him.
Hard, but not impossible.
Even after the Celestial Dragons fall, there would still be a risk of him being tortured and killed.
Kam feared death. Accepting the task carried some risk too.
But—
As a Celestial Dragon, what woman couldn't he get?! With the Celestial Dragon identity backing him, the risk was negligible. Besides, he already had a target in mind.
With the system, he could keep getting stronger. Get strong enough to kill that King Luffy. After killing Luffy, he could continue being a Celestial Dragon—not only survive but keep enjoying the easy life!
"Betting it all—I'm staying a Celestial Dragon!"
After sorting out his thoughts, Kam decisively accepted the task.
"But Doflamingo is a problem. He probably won't let Sugar marry me."
Kam stroked his chin: "Gotta think of a way..."
After a moment of thought, he quickly came up with a plan.
Kam immediately took out a Den Den Mushi and dialed Admiral Kizaru.
"Kizaru, help me capture someone."
On the other end: "Ora ora~"
"Kam Saint, please don't mock this old man."
"Even as a Celestial Dragon, you can't just command an Admiral directly."
Kizaru wasn't wrong. There were only three Admirals, but tens of thousands of Celestial Dragons. If three Celestial Dragons got beaten at the same time and one Admiral was off picking flowers on private orders, who would take the blame?!
Kam smiled: "I'll pay you."
…
With top-tier firepower secured,
Kam then summoned Vice Admirals like Gion, Hina, Tsuru, and others—several Marine Vice Admirals—to deal with Doflamingo's other officers.
Soon after, Dressrosa, Royal Palace.
Boom boom boom!!
Clang clang clang!!
With the salary boost, Kizaru casually slapped Doflamingo down in two moves.
The other officers? In front of Vice Admirals led by Gion and others (including two Admiral candidates), they were nothing.
"Fufufu!"
"Kizaru! Are you turning against the World Government?! I'm a Warlord!"
Doflamingo roared furiously, more confused than angry!
Why would an Admiral like Kizaru come after him?
The Warlord title was granted by the World Government—he was a legal pirate!
Doflamingo glared: "And I have Celestial Dragon blood!"
"Uh…"
Kizaru gave him a sideways glance.
Thinking to himself: Kam Saint is the real deal, not a discarded reject like you!
Though disdainful inside, he said out loud: "Ora ora~ This old man is just doing a job."
"Doing a job?!"
Doflamingo's heart jolted.
Who could make an Admiral work for them?!
Before he could think further, a large group marched in grandly.
Leading them was a man in a red robe, red suit, with a huge red flower on his chest.
It was Kam.
"Kizaru!"
Kam roared in fake anger: "Didn't I say to treat Doflamingo well?!"
Inside, he was thrilled. He had worried Kizaru might struggle, but it was a total stomp.
Money talks—four Emperors would fold too!
One Doflamingo was child's play.
Doflamingo glared viciously at the approaching Kam: "You're the one who wants me captured?"
"Misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding."
Kam smiled amiably. "I'm Kam. Doflamingo, I'm here to propose marriage."
"Huh?!"
Doflamingo's expression turned weird. He instinctively clenched his butt: "Pro-propose to me?"
"Of course." Kam nodded.
"Hmm!!"
Hearing the confirmation, Kizaru, Gion, Hina, and the others all looked strange.
They say Celestial Dragons play dirty—sure enough!
"Eh?!"
Noticing the odd stares, Kam froze, then realized instantly.
"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"
Kam hurried to explain: "I mean I'm proposing to your Donquixote family."
"Phew~"
Doflamingo exhaled in relief, his tensed butt relaxing.
Guessing Kam's status, he asked politely: "Which woman in my family have you taken a liking to?"
Kam nodded: "Sugar."
"Pfft…!"
Doflamingo spat blood.
"Sugar!!?"
He glared furiously: "She's just a kid!"
"Kekekeke~"
Kam burst into laughter: "Doflamingo, don't think I don't know Sugar's real age. She's only one year younger than me! It's her honor that I fancy her!"
"Ah, well…"
Doflamingo was speechless.
Sugar ate the Hobby-Hobby Fruit, so she looked extremely young, but she was actually 21.
Kam was right.
"Let me reiterate—my full name is Kurukured Kam Saint."
"You know what that means."
"I, Kam, swear I won't mistreat Sugar."
"And if she marries me, your Donquixote family will have friendly ties with the Kurukured family. I'll provide 100 million berries as bride price…"
"Grind grind!"
Doflamingo's teeth gnashed at Kam's nonsense.
Not mistreat? Bullshit!
How many women married to Celestial Dragons ended well?
Moreover, Sugar was crucial to him!
His kingdom ran normally thanks to her ability. He couldn't lose her even if he lost the throne!
"No!"
Doflamingo refused outright. "Sugar is the most important member of the Donquixote family!"
"I'll pay more."
"More money still no!"
"200 million bride price."
"No!"
"300 million."
"No!"
"500 million."
"No amount will do!"
…
Kam kept raising the price, even starting to threaten.
But Doflamingo wouldn't budge.
They were at a stalemate.
Makes sense—Doflamingo treated his crew like family. How could he let one marry a Celestial Dragon with such a rotten reputation?
"System, can I just force it?"
Kam suddenly asked the system.
[Host, of course that's not allowed~]
"Ahh~"
Kam gave an insincere smile: "That was just a joke. As a modern 21st-century youth, how could I do something like—"
Before he finished, the mechanical voice continued:
[That would reduce the rewards]
Kam: ???
He was stunned.
If it's not allowed, why would there be reduced rewards?!
Kam asked nervously: "Just reduced rewards, right? Nothing else missing?"
[Ding== This system does not prohibit such behavior, but rewards will be greatly reduced. Normally no idiot would do it…]
The system rambled on, basically saying it was possible.
"Kekekeke!!"
Kam's eyes lit up. "For a Celestial Dragon, strong-arm buying isn't 'strong-arm buying'—it's a blessing!"
