One Piece: Mandala Swordsman

Chapter 357 Sending Himself In

Why is Roman investigating Andrew's death?

Why did she set her sights on G5 from the very beginning?

A sudden inspiration, a flash of genius?

No, when considering this question, we might as well take a longer-term view.

Kaido's sudden appearance seriously injured Roman, and it was thanks to him that the three of them made it to the top of the trending searches.

However, because the newspaper's content was misleading, Gion and Kake had to temporarily go out to gain experience and avoid appearing in public.

This led to rumors that the two of them were dead.

Roman was also forced to stand in the public eye.

In other words, this matter has given them face, but they've lost everything.

Since Kaido had offended her, she naturally didn't want him to have an easy time.

Although she doesn't have a direct way to make things difficult for Kaido right now, that doesn't mean she doesn't have indirect methods.

Kaido's Beasts Pirates will experience a significant increase in strength in the future.

The key figure who increased the strength of the Beasts Pirates was Caesar.

Caesar's "SMILE" gas caused artificial Devil Fruits to appear, making the Beasts Pirates truly live up to their name of "Beasts".

At present, Caesar has not yet betrayed the World Government and is currently working in the Science Department, which is headed by Kizaru.

Of course, he won't behave.

After all, he had always been dissatisfied with Vegapunk.

Furthermore, it's unclear when Caesar conspired with Doflamingo to enable Doflamingo to successfully reach a deal with Kaido.

Should we investigate first?

With further targeted research, everything began to become clear.

With key figures in the Science Department, Kizaru and Sentomaru, one a slacker and the other tight-lipped, gathering information couldn't be easier.

Therefore, Roman easily discovered Caesar's connection to the G5 fortress.

And with him...

Did you know that Caesar had connections with Doflamingo?

"what?"

"It seems you didn't know."

"Is the Doflamingo you're talking about the North Blue underworld family?"

"Yes, that's the underworld family. He will soon embark on the path to becoming king because of Caesar."

"I don't understand what you mean. How could Lord Caesar have connections with underworld families?"

"You are very confident."

Roman's expression turned terrifying.

"Didn't Caesar also choose to associate with your G5 fortress? What difference does it make if there's another underworld family?"

This is simply a matter of varying degrees of violation.

"This……"

"Rios, you probably don't know how serious the consequences of your choices are!!" Roman began to intimidate Rios, which once again suffocated him.

"I don't believe it!!! That's just your opinion."

“Of course, I think everything should be based on evidence, and the bad thing is that I lack evidence, so there’s really nothing I can do.” Roman sighed and admitted, and then her momentum weakened.

"so……"

"But I have another way!!!"

Suddenly, Rios had a bad feeling.

"Sly, Glen, Raven, Patch, come in!" Roman called out towards the door.

Then, the four people came in one by one, but before they could speak, Roman spoke again.

"Because you have disobeyed my orders, I think we are about to face some difficulties."

"Sir, could you elaborate? What are the difficulties...?"

Actually, the group of four probably guessed it.

They've already caused quite a commotion here.

It's obviously impossible that there won't be any trouble afterward.

But with the superior officer present, things are completely different.

She estimated there was a way.

With her help, they should be fine.

Emmm...

For some reason, Roman always felt that they had a blind confidence in themselves.

Unfortunately, they're going to be disappointed this time.

"I just wanted to prepare you mentally. Are you mentally prepared?"

"You must already have your own ideas, we'll just follow them."

"Well, if you had thought that way before, things probably wouldn't have come to this. But if I did things my way, you probably wouldn't accept it."

“But we have no way to stop you now,” Grant said very sincerely.

"Alright. I'll do it my way."

Then, Roman took out a Den Den Mushi (snail phone).

"Marshal Zhan Guo, it was me... Yes, I've made some progress, but that's not the point. Yes, I led my men to almost overturn G5 Fortress? The base commander? He's passed out right next to me? Yes, I was the one who did it, no, no, no... I'm not joking, I'm perfectly mentally sound. I've thought about it, and I think it's better to turn myself in. When would be a suitable time for the trial..."

The four-person group: (?Д?)

Rios: (?˙ー˙?)

What is this routine?

Raven's face stiffened: "Sir, is there no countermeasure this time?"

"That's the solution."

"I don't understand."

"It's okay. Just be prepared that you might be in big trouble later, since this is something you caused."

"You..." Rios never expected Roman to pull such a stunt.

"Oh, right, I have something to tell you. Like you said, I don't have any evidence, but now someone will help me find it."

"You're crazy."

“I believe that madness that can produce results is a rational approach.”

Looking at the gloomy expressions on the other people's faces, Roman said with a smile.
