Doflamingo (2)
"Five Color Strings!" Donquixote Doflamingo shouted.
He swung his claw at Fanxin, and five lines, like five knives, shot straight at Fanxin, seemingly trying to cut Fanxin apart.
Fanxin looked on calmly, smiled, and said, "This is useless to me. No matter how much effort you put in, it's all in vain."
As he spoke, he immediately summoned his Diamond Armor. At the same time, he enveloped himself in Haki.
When the Five Color Strings reached him, they only struck his Haki. His Haki was very strong, and the Five Color Strings did not cause him any harm.
"He's definitely a tough one to deal with," Donquixote Doflamingo exclaimed.
"Of course, if you killed me so easily, what would be the point of my life!" Fanxin shouted, "Stop talking nonsense and take that string off!"
He had already sensed the location of the thread using his Haki, but he didn't want to do it himself because he wanted Donquixote Doflamingo to submit.
However, to his disappointment, Donquixote Doflamingo did not remove the string controlling his body. He looked at Fanxin Xin and chuckled, saying, "Although I cannot harm you for now, if I continue my attack, you will surely suffer a great loss."
"Hmph, do you think I won't fight back?" Fanxin said coldly. He wouldn't let the other party control him forever. If the other party knew what was good for him, he wouldn't bother with him. If the other party didn't know what was good for him, then he wouldn't be polite.
"Go ahead and resist! I'm waiting," Donquixote Doflamingo said dismissively. He was confident, as if he knew that Fanxin were irrevocably attached to him.
Fanxin gave a light snort. He took out the Dragon-Slaying Sword, wrapped it with Haki, and then swung it towards the line. He wanted to cut the line.
Donquixote Doflamingo waited leisurely, eager to see Fanxin Xin make a fool of himself.
However, the next moment, his expression froze. Because Fanxin had severed the thread with a single strike, he had lost control of Fanxin.
"How is this possible?" Donquixote Doflamingo exclaimed in disbelief. His strings were incredibly strong; weapons and cannons couldn't destroy them. Yet, Fanxin easily severed them with a single swing of his sword. He was speechless.
"Hmph, my blade is very strong and sharp," Fanxin said. "You think your thread is so powerful? Let me tell you, I can easily cut your thread. If you don't believe me, you can try."
His sword is no ordinary sword; the Dragon-Slaying Sword is renowned for its sharpness. No matter how hard something is, you can cut it in half if you use it to strike.
He was becoming more and more confident in this knife because it was just so incredibly useful!
"Kid, don't get too cocky," Donquixote Doflamingo shouted.
"Then come on! If you don't want to fight, then get out of here right now. I don't have time to waste with you," Fanxin said coldly.
He didn't want to fight anyone right now because he was in a hurry, and these people were blocking his way, making him anxious and unable to concentrate. However, he had no choice but to stay and fight this bastard. His opponent was quite strong, and his chances of escaping were slim.
Since that's the case, he has no choice but to stay and have a proper contest with the other party.
"Hmph, as you wish!" Doflamingo snorted, then used strings to create another Doflamingo, and the two attacked Fanxin simultaneously.
Fanxin's expression turned serious. He was already struggling to deal with one. Now he had to deal with two at the same time, which was a huge burden for him.
After hesitating for a moment, Fanxin Xin immediately headed into the distance. He didn't want to fight anymore, because this was going on forever! Donquixote Doflamingo definitely wanted to kill him, and if he stayed and fought, he wouldn't be able to move forward.
With two Doflamingo holding him back, rescuing Ace was impossible. Therefore, he decided not to stay any longer.
He didn't feel ashamed at all, because he had only just grown up, while Doflamingo was a pirate who had been famous for many years. It was perfectly reasonable for him to avoid him!
Donquixote Doflamingo was furious when he saw Fanxin run away, thinking that Fanxin would fight him.
"Trying to run? In that case, I'll just lock you up completely!" Doflamingo chuckled, immediately soaring into the sky and chasing after Fanxin.
It's truly bizarre that he can fly without wings. To this day, the Navy still hasn't figured out this ability or the reason behind it.
Unless Doflamingo himself says it, or someone who knows him tells him, no one else will ever know.
His abilities have always been a mystery, and the Navy has studied them many times. However, they still couldn't determine what Doflamingo's abilities were. If they knew, they could target Doflamingo.
Because they didn't know, the Navy had no way to deal with him! At the same time, Doflamingo was extremely cunning and ruthless, so the Navy had no choice but to let Doflamingo join the Shichibukai.
They did this to appease Doflamingo, hoping Doflamingo would stop causing trouble. However, the Navy ultimately miscalculated; Doflamingo wouldn't abandon everything else just because of his status as a Shichibukai.
He's been secretly doing shady things behind the Navy's back. If the Navy found out, they certainly wouldn't let him off easily. However, he's very good at hiding it, and the Navy hasn't discovered it.
He Luffy towards Fanxin, determined to catch Fanxin. Fanxin angered him greatly, so he wasn't going to let Fanxin go.
Fanxin felt extremely uncomfortable watching this; this guy was too persistent, refusing to let go of him.
"You bastard, you wait. If you piss me off, I won't do anything else today. I'll fight you to the death," Fanxin said viciously.
He dislikes getting entangled with irrelevant people, as it wastes his time. However, if the other party is stubborn and insists on making things difficult for him, he won't be polite.
He ignored Doflamingo, using his Observation Haki to monitor him, while he himself raced forward. He planned to reach the arena as quickly as possible.
However, to Fanxin's dismay, after running for only a short while, Kizaru suddenly appeared ahead of him and blocked his path.
Fanxin was getting anxious. He was surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind; his situation was extremely dangerous! He might even die here.
"Damn it, am I that hated? Why are so many people targeting me?" Fanxin said dejectedly.
He can't beat Doflamingo, and he can't beat Kizaru either! This combination of two powerful figures isn't a good thing for him.
"No, I have to think of a way. Otherwise, I'll die," Fanxin thought to himself.
Both of them are very strong; he can't even beat one of them, let alone both. If he doesn't find a way to distract one of them, it will be extremely dangerous.
"You deal with the one behind, I'll handle the one in front!" Just as Fanxin was getting anxious, a voice suddenly rang in his ears and shouted.
Upon hearing this, Fanxin was momentarily stunned, for he had no idea where the voice came from! However, he frowned, for he recognized a familiar quality in the voice. He seemed to have heard it before.
"You... you're not Little Fox, are you?" Fanxin said uncertainly.
There's no one else inside him anymore; everything that needed to be released has been released. And those Diamond Beast can no longer speak; he can only communicate with them through souls. So, those can be ruled out. That leaves only the Little Fox who has been sleeping all along.
The Little Fox has been asleep for a long time; he has been asleep ever since he set sail. He hasn't woken up yet.
"Yes, that's me," the Little Fox replied.
"Hehe, you're actually awake? Has your soul been restored?" Fanxin asked curiously.
"Ah, yes, I secretly devoured the Soul Power within your Soul Tower, and my soul has been restored to its original state." The Little Fox chuckled and said, "Oh, by the way, I also took over one of your Diamond Beast. Now, I've been resurrected."
"Ah, you... when did you do that?" Fanxin Xin asked, puzzled.
He rarely paid attention to the Diamond Beast, only throwing them hard things to eat each day, and nothing else. Therefore, he was unaware that the number of Diamond Beast had decreased. He had no idea that the Little Fox was behind it.
"About a year ago, I didn't tell you because I didn't know if I could succeed. But now I can guarantee that I succeeded," the Little Fox said.
"Hehe, that's right." Fanxin said upon hearing this, "Alright, come out now! Don't keep hiding, I'm in need of help. You've come at the perfect time."
He's currently being hunted by two powerful figures and doesn't know which way to go. He's naturally happy to have the Little Fox come to his aid.
In this way, his pressure will be reduced significantly.
"No problem." The Little Fox chuckled, and then it came out. It was now a Little Fox, about the size of a palm, and landed on Fanxin's shoulder without getting in Fanxin way at all.
"You're so tiny! Can you change size freely?" Fanxin asked curiously.
He wanted to know if the Little Fox's body was only this big. If it was only this big, then the Little Fox's power couldn't be unleashed.
"Of course you can. In our current state, we can work together seamlessly without adding any burden to you. So, you can fight to your heart's content without any worries," the Little Fox said.
"Alright, then you can have the one in the back, and I'll take care of this bastard in the front." Fanxin immediately shouted upon hearing this.
With the Little Fox holding Doflamingo back, he doesn't need to worry about Doflamingo. He can focus all his attention on Kizaru. He can get past Kizaru alone.
"Alright, go ahead." Nodding, the Little Fox immediately looked at Doflamingo. Then, it stretched out its little paw towards Doflamingo. You didn't see it do anything, but Doflamingo, flying in the sky, felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if he had been punched hard.
Doflamingo stopped flying and remained in the air, looking at the Little Fox on Fanxin's head, his brows furrowed.
"Could it be that Little Fox who hit me?" Doflamingo muttered to himself. He had been keeping a close eye on Fanxin, and since Fan Xin hadn't attacked anyone else, it was unlikely that anyone would risk their life to attack him. Therefore, he was certain that it must have been Fanxin who did it.
However, Fanxin kept his eyes fixed ahead and didn't look at it at all. But the Little Fox on Fanxin's shoulder was staring at him, its little paws pointed at him. It was obvious.
To confirm his suspicions, Doflamingo pursued the boy for a while longer. He wanted to see if the little guy was behind it all.
As expected, he continued his pursuit and was once again ambushed. However, he was unable to dodge it; the attack was invisible and intangible, seemingly piercing through space, which greatly frustrated him.
Doflamingo hesitated for a moment, then finally decided not to pursue.
He no longer had the ability to handle the Little Fox, and rashly pursuing it would be a bad decision. Therefore, he decided to observe first, and only take action to resolve his Fanxin once he understood the situation.
Seeing that Doflamingo had stopped attacking, the Little Fox also withdrew. However, it didn't relax its guard and kept a close watch, in case Doflamingo did something underhanded.
Ahead, Fanxin, wielding two swords, charged straight at Kizaru without flinching, meeting Kizaru head-on.
He had no chance to dodge, because Kizaru was incredibly fast; wherever he went, Kizaru would immediately follow. This was because Kizaru hated him and wanted to kill him!
He wasn't running away, because his target was the execution platform. Unless he didn't want to rescue Fire Fist Ace Kizaru, he would still have to fight Kizaru once he saw him standing there. Only by breaking through the encirclement could he get close to Ace and ultimately rescue Ace.
"Kid, let's see how you escape today," Kizaru said with a grim expression.
Last time, Dark King Rayleigh intervened and blocked him, giving Fanxin an opportunity, which greatly frustrated him. He had been trying to capture Fanxin, but he hadn't been able to find Fanxin. Although he had recently learned that Fanxin was in the Impel Down, the war had broken out here, and he couldn't leave!
If he rushes to the Impel Down and something happens here, then they'll have suffered a net loss.
So, after much deliberation, he decided to give up.
He hadn't expected Fanxin to come here; it was exactly what he wanted! Naturally, he was delighted.
"Hmph, Kizaru, don't get too cocky. Whitebeard hasn't even made a move yet. If you stop me, you're giving him an opening," Fanxin chuckled and said.
