The Drum Island was also one of the mber nations of the World Governnt.
Therefore, Rosse's arrival was warmly welcod by the locals.
The Drum Island even summoned all doctors and dical contributions from across the country, just to fulfill Rosse's request.
"Your Highness, the doctors and dical contributions you requested have all been gathered in the capital. Only Dr. Kureha hasn't responded to my invitation. Should I issue a compulsory order under your na?"
Drum Island King Wapol stood before Rosse, his head slightly lowered to show his respect.
"Since Dr. Kureha doesn't want to co, just forget it. King Wapol, summoning all the doctors like this won't cause so sort of chaos, will it?"
Dr. Kureha was the best doctor on Drum Island, also a 120-year-old monster.
Weirdos always had weird tempers, Rosse didn't really care whether she ca or not.
Just the doctors and dical texts Wapol summoned were enough for Stella and Sora to study for a long ti.
Besides, ti was limited, he couldn't stay on Drum Island for long.
It was already the year 1501. If he went to the Goa Kingdom too late, his prey might escape.
"To be honest with Your Highness, summoning the doctors did cause a small bit of trouble," Wapol was a slick king. He had already attended the Reverie in the Holy Land over four tis and had seen too many Celestial Dragons.
The Drum Island was a mber nation, and Celestial Dragons wouldn't cause trouble for them without reason. Now that he was following Rosse's request, he naturally didn't want to shoulder any trouble.
"What kind of trouble?", Rosse looked at him with a half-smile, knowing Wapol wanted his help with sothing.
But since he took the people and books, he didn't mind helping with a little thing.
"The queen of Alabasta is recuperating in the Drum Island. We might not be able to provide her with dical assistance."
Wapol's aning was straightforward, he didn't want to offend Alabasta and wanted Rosse to help deal with the issue.
"That's simple. Just send the queen to my residence, my doctors will handle her dical issues," Rosse smiled as he agreed, thinking it was nothing serious.
If he rembered correctly, the current king of Alabasta was Cobra, who had only recently married. The queen's na was Titi, a rather timid woman.
He had originally been torn about whether to go to Alabasta, but since the queen of Alabasta was already here, there was no need to go there now.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for aiding Queen Nefertari," After finishing the matter, Wapol quickly took his leave.
He didn't know what the queen of Alabasta would go through here with Rosse, nor did he want to know.
She was soone Rosse requested, once delivered, it had nothing to do with him anymore.
"How dare you treat the queen with such disrespect! Alabasta will sever diplomatic ties with the Drum Island!"
That evening after dinner, Rosse heard so unpleasant noises outside.
Rosse didn't even pause his steps, only gave Gion a glance.
Sora and Stella were both studying, with Zephyr responsible for their safety, so now only Gion was following him.
Gion nodded slightly, her figure darting out and disappearing.
After about 15 minutes, while Rosse was waiting in the parlor, he heard a knock at the door from outside.
"Co in," Rosse sat on the sofa, looking at the door Gion opened.
Under Gion's lead, royal guard Igaram steadily pushed the wheelchair of Nefertari D. Titi, stepping into the parlor at an unhurried pace.
Rosse directly ignored the tall and muscular Igaram. A D-rank level wasn't even worth his attention.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Nefertari D. Titi]
[Overall Rating: E-rank]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Another E-rank.
Rosse's gaze was quickly drawn to Queen Titi on the wheelchair.
Queen Titi had deep blue hair that gently draped over her shoulders. Her complexion was fair as jade, but her expression carried traces of timidity, like a startled fawn, her eyes filled with cautiousness as they moved.
Just as the intel said, she was a timid woman.
Rosse's gaze shifted downward slightly.
Even though Queen Titi wore thick and warm clothing, her graceful figure was still faintly visible, slender waist, long legs, elegant posture, all highlighting her outstanding physique.
No wonder Cobra, as ugly as he was, could have a daughter like Vivi. Vivi at least shared 90% resemblance with Queen Titi.
"Your Highness!"
Rosse ignored Igaram, but that didn't an Igaram could ignore Rosse.
Noticing Rosse's gaze, Igaram stepped forward, his large body shielding Queen Titi, bowing respectfully to Rosse.
"And you are?", Rosse narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a deliberately confused tone.
Alabasta was a massive country in the first half of the Grand Line, occupying a very important geographical position. Its ancestors were one of the Twenty Kings, and it was the only one that gave up Celestial Dragon status and returned to their ancestral land.
However, Rosse had heard so rumors. Supposedly the queen of Alabasta back then never actually returned, and it was her brother who was the first ruler of Alabasta.
There were even rumors that the queen of Alabasta back then was the one sitting on the highest throne of the World Governnt.
Whichever was true, it proved Alabasta's special status.
So from the beginning, Rosse never intended to let Alabasta off the hook.
Openly dealing with a mber nation wasn't appropriate, but covert thods were endless.
"Your Highness! I am Igaram, royal guard of Alabasta, ordered to protect Queen Titi."
Igaram introduced himself formally, standing upright. That calm and unyielding deanor seed to showcase the dignity of Alabasta.
"You are neither the king nor the prince of Alabasta. Then who gave you the right to speak to while standing?", Rosse's gaze casually fell on Igaram, without even a trace of Conqueror's Haki, it was simply a spoiled Celestial Dragon expressing dissatisfaction.
Alabasta was going to be a bit of a hassle.
If it were just an ordinary mber nation, he would've acted already.
But playing things differently could always bring different fun.
Clang!
At Rosse's words, Gion's Kinpira was already unsheathed, the blade resting against Igaram's neck, as if the slightest wrong word would result in imdiate execution.
"Your Highness, before leaving, King Cobra authorized to represent Alabasta. Legally speaking, Alabasta is not your vassal, so I don't need to kneel to speak with you," Igaram frowned slightly, but still stood in front of Rosse.
He didn't know what Rosse intended to do, but he could feel the danger from him.
He wasn't a stubborn fool, but right now, with Queen Titi behind him, he couldn't back down.
If he did, he would betray Cobra's trust.
