Third Person POV
New Word.

...
As all the Straw Hats began to spread across various ships, following the routes that Nami had prepared for everyone on the maps Luffy distributed, hundreds of kilometers away, in Dressrosa, the kingdom was quite agitated.
The kingdom entered a phase of rapid uproar as the civilian residents of the kingdom simply watched all the subordinates of the former Donquixote family of the kingdom running back and forth, beginning to fill several ships in the harbor with soldiers, weapons, and equipment, some of which were quite expensive, after all, there was a batch of Smile with them.
All these ships were preparing to go to Wano, where the war against the Straw Hats would take place. Being forced to leave Dressrosa behind while even the entire army of Dressrosa was obliged to follow them, leaving the people watching everything, stunned, as they saw all the men who had commanded the kingdom for years simply leaving them at their mercy there.
"The Straw Hats have entered the New World. After all, this kingdom seems to be a target of theirs. But they are leaving us..." The people began to talk to each other with a worried tone.
"Where are you going! Didn't the Straw Hats come here to destroy this country?!" More and more people began to get scared, shouting at the soldiers, after all, they were being abandoned and left to chance.
"We can't do anything... we are obliged to go!" A young soldier from the Dressrosa army had to murmur embarrassedly as he had to leave his mother behind.
"Forgive us... but we can't disagree..." Another man spoke with a sad look.
"Yes..." Another cried, after all, there were many who did not agree with this, and they were all crucified by the kingdom, after all, Kaido had given the order to gather all possible forces to fight against the Straw Hats in Wano and those who disobeyed this were cruelly killed while their families wept over their exposed bodies.
"Hey, shouldn't you be helping us? Why are you running away?" Still, the people continued to question the group.
BANG!
Gunshots interrupted the discussions at this moment, while one of the subordinates of the Donquixote family approached with a stern tone. "We will return when the war is over. We are going to Wano, period, understood?!" The civilians backed off a bit scared as they were threatened in this way, leaving the audience even more dazed.
"This is bad," murmured one of the people, while the discussion continued throughout the country.
"..." Riku looked at all this from a distance, while he did not know what to say, he talked with his daughter Viola, about why the straw hat appeared more than a year ago and had kidnapped Rebecca, taking her out of the country, and how Viola seemed to believe in the words of the straw hat, he trusted that he would be here to help this country before going to Wano, but the people here would not be thinking the same way.
Riku knew that everyone in this kingdom thought that the Straw Hats were here to destroy them, since it was the Straw Hats who killed Doflamingo. Viola also said that Luffy had given surprising information, that the key for him to win his kingdom back was a girl who was protected by the executives of the Donquixote family, that she created all the toys that are part of Dressrosa, which originally were people, but they did not remember because when becoming that, everyone was forgotten.
Riku did not know what would happen, after all, the Straw Hats would be arriving here in the next few days, probably the government and the navy would act with all the denunciations being made by desperate people, which should already be happening at this moment throughout the country, with all the military power being taken from here.
His gaze fell on his old castle, while he thought about his daughter, who should be in a meeting at this moment with all the members of that group that still controlled the country.
In the throne room, as Riku predicted, everyone was gathered at this moment while an open discussion had started for the latest reports of their plans before leaving.
"We'll be leaving soon. We can no longer stay here. In a week, probably, the Straw Hats will already be here," Trebol said with a snot hanging from his nose.
"I can't believe we're leaving Dressrosa and the Smile factory... but I don't want to be here when those monsters arrive!" Dellinger murmured.
"Yes... now with the shipment of Smile going to the ship, we'll finally leave here and take revenge for everything the Straw Hats did to us in Wano alongside Kaido!" Pica spoke in his high-pitched voice, while no one there laughed out of respect.
"We will avenge Doflamingo and Vergo, even Baby-5 and Monet who betrayed us in the end, let's start leaving!" Diamante declared.
"Don't forget that Kaido allowed us to take Sugar to another place, after all, she is still important for us to maintain this country, so she will go on a separate ship to Big Mom's territory," one of the family members said. "We must depart for Big Mom's territory, as requested. After all, our protection depends on it," Trebol added, as the mentioned girl was there nodding while licking a lollipop as usual.
As they continued to discuss a few more touches, Viola was in a corner just listening in silence, she couldn't stop looking out the window of the palace a few times, anxious for the Straw Hats to come at any moment, after all, if they managed to leave, countless Dressrosa soldiers would be doomed to war, and the country would never be saved with Sugar being elsewhere.
She would also be going to Wano, after all her skills would be required to be the strategic eye of the war and she didn't want to be used in that way. "Viola!" She had to break her thoughts as soon as she heard someone calling her and this time it was Diamante.
"You must go to the ship, understood?" He spoke with a dangerous tone, knowing that the princess of Dressrosa was not as reliable as she should be, especially now that Doflamingo was dead.
"Yes," she said in a neutral tone, but with a bit of anxiety growing in her heart.
It was at that moment that she started to leave, that she suddenly stopped. While her eyes lifted to the sky as they opened wide.
"Any problem, Viola?" Diamante noticed her strange behavior and asked.
"There's a dragon above Dressrosa," was the only thing she said while everyone in the room immediately looked at her at that moment, wondering what she was talking about, thinking it was some bluff.
It was at that moment that dark clouds began to form in the blue sky, starting to cover the sun and darkening all the streets and places of Dressrosa.
While people were still complaining to the pirate subordinates, while they mocked the civilians, and the army of Dressrosa, not responding to the people with shame for leaving their kingdom behind, everyone began to notice the darkness setting in the country.
"Hm?" Everyone looked up, beginning to see the strange event starting to form, even knowing that the New World had quite dangerous weather, what they were seeing surpassed everything.
"Hey, what's happening here?" they asked throughout the streets.
"A storm," another murmured.
"But this is kind of strange," said the subordinate, as he gripped his rifle tighter and with some fear to the sky.
"What's happening?" Diamante immediately went out to one of the palace's balconies along with other companions.
The entire country was already in complete darkness with a type of storm forming above it in less than five minutes since the first clouds appeared.
"What is that!!!" It was then that, from this moment, a shadow began to glide between the black clouds, standing out even in that shade of the sky. It began to traverse the sky above Dressrosa like a serpent.
"There's something in the sky!!!" As the people of Dressrosa began to exclaim, the Donquixote family's eyes widened at that.
"This..." They murmured seeing that shape and what it should mean with that.
"So..." Pica murmured in his unusual tone.
"Why is he here?!" Trebol exclaimed, stunned.
"We were supposed to meet in a year, why is Kaido here?" These exclamations started in the palace.
"It must probably be to ensure that the Smiles were taken to Wano... After all, Kaido is quite impatient..." Diamante seemed calmer now, saying he thought why Kaido was here and why he came.
As the dragon still roamed the sky, circling Dressrosa, those who did not recognize Kaido's final form panicked, and the entire country began to scream with a monster in the sky, civilians started running to their homes, while soldiers quickly grabbed their weapons with trembling hands.
It was no surprise that people were afraid, after all, everyone knew that that thing had caused these dark clouds and it was immense, being able to race across Dressrosa with everyone watching it. Even the former king Riku, who seemed to be in an internal debate until a moment ago about the Straw Hats, was now scared.
But what the Donquixote family expected when the dragon began to descend, expecting to see the blue dragon, they ended up being stunned when pink scales appeared as the dragon continued to descend through the air.
The head of the Pink Dragon was finally seen by everyone as it descended and began to stabilize in the air, above the main city of the kingdom.
"What, that's not Kaido!" Diamante was stunned seeing that giant pink dragon. All the others from the Donquixote family were scared by this unknown dragon, as it seemed too feminine to be a man there.
But before they could really react, a blue space appeared, covering the entire castle at that moment.
"THIS?!" Trebol saw this and immediately became stunned while Viola, who was also speechless, simply disappeared from the middle of the palace, leaving them stunned.
And now, with no one that Rebecca wouldn't want to hurt there, her gaze became more serious towards the direction of the castle while her body began to stabilize in the sky as people below her continued running as far away as possible from that thing.
"Do you not remember me?" Her voice began to resonate everywhere while she did not even need to move her mouth to speak. Her tone was quite firm, but many recognized her even without seeing her for a year, mainly the people from the Coliseum.
"I am Princess Rebecca," she continued, as everyone immediately diverted their eyes, looking frightened and stunned.
'Is this Princess Rebecca?!' Everyone immediately murmured internally.
"And I..." Rebecca's voice continued resonating everywhere. "...am here to avenge what you have done to this kingdom and my family all these years!" She declared.
And in the next moment, she simply opened her mouth and a red light began to gather between her teeth for seconds before she aimed at the castle, since there was no longer her aunt and a fairy that Luffy had warned that Lami had to remove before destroying, Luffy also asked to destroy that ugly castle they had and make a new one after this fight.
Then Rebecca charged her attack. "Dragon Breath!" immediately, in the next moment, she released a blast and all the members who were in the castle could only open their eyes before the castle was enveloped in a huge explosion, with none of those who were there able to react in time.
And thus began the revolution in Dressrosa, with a small group of the Straw Hats arriving faster than expected to not let the Don Quixote family escape while the entire Dressrosa castle was blown up.
