The Great Battle (3)

Law used the power of the Op-Op Fruit to heal his injuries and then headed towards his destination again.

He had suffered a great loss before, but now his injuries have recovered considerably, and he is fully capable of fighting again.

He wouldn't give up so easily. He fled to a distance earlier to distract Doflamingo and prevent him from interfering with Straw Hat Boy Luffy. Straw Hat Boy's body is currently restricted, preventing him from unleashing his full power.

If Doflamingo is still there, things will get complicated.

Straw Hat Boy will suffer a double blow; in that case, he could very well die.

If he distracts Doflamingo's main body, then the Straw Hat Boy will only have to face a clone of Doflamingo, which would make things much easier.

"Doflamingo, you wait, I will definitely make you die," Law said coldly.

Although he was weaker, he would never give up easily. He hadn't planned to leave alive when he came here.

After saying that, he quickly headed towards his destination, preparing to attack Doflamingo again.

Meanwhile, Doflamingo and Trebol had returned, and the two of them, along with Doflamingo's clone, were attacking the Straw Hat Boy.

Straw Hat Boy is still bound and facing so many experts at once, his situation is extremely critical.

However, just then, Law appeared and stood in front of Straw Hat Boy.

"Hurry up, we can't dawdle, or we'll all die," Luo said.

Now, Doflamingo's side is clearly in a stronger position; if they don't work hard, they'll only be devoured.

"I know, give me ten seconds," Straw Hat Boy said.

He had been trying to break free, but the clone wouldn't give him a chance. He was helpless and had been locked in a fierce battle with it ever since.

"Okay, I'll buy you some time," Luo nodded and said.

After saying that, he drew his Scalpel and faced Doflamingo and the others.

"Come on, Doflamingo, our battle isn't over yet," Law coldly shouted.

"Heh, Luo, you're really lucky. So many rocks, and you didn't get killed." Trebol was displeased, glaring at Luo with eyes blazing with anger.

He thought Luo would be crushed to death, which was why he hadn't used his knife earlier. He hadn't expected Luo to survive. Now, he felt a vague sense of regret.

"Hmph, I told you, you'd regret it if you didn't kill me," Luo said with a smile. "Now's the time for you to regret it."

"Hmph, killing you now is the same as not killing you before. Luo, go to hell!" Trebol shouted angrily.

Having said that, he immediately attacked, ready to kill Luo.

Luo immediately attacked, manipulating a large rock to Trebol's attack. Soon, Trebol's attack was blocked by the rock and missed Luo.

Without pausing, Luo continued his actions, swinging his Scalpel and slashing at Trebol, intending to kill Trebol.

However, at that moment, Doflamingo attacked, using his whip to block Law's attack.

Neither side got too close, only probing each other with ranged attacks. Both understood that neither could deliver a fatal blow.

Therefore, they can only probe temporarily to find out the opponent's weaknesses before resorting to drastic measures.

And that's why Law bought Straw Hat Boy ten seconds. Straw Hat Boy didn't disappoint Law.

He broke free from the shackles of those strings and gained his freedom.

"Alright, now I'll pay Doflamingo more, and you can have that snotty-nosed guy," Straw Hat Boy said.

He was furious, having suffered a great loss earlier. However, he had now fully recovered and was completely capable of going toe-to-toe with Doflamingo.

"Alright, let's split up and fight," Luo nodded and said.

Having suffered a loss before, almost losing his life, he realized he couldn't hesitate any longer and had to take action. Otherwise, he would face the same situation again.

"Alright, let's move out." The Straw Hat Boy nodded and said. Then, he took the lead and launched an attack.

Luo didn't linger and headed straight for Trebol.

When Trebol saw Luo rushing towards him, he immediately became alert and dared not be careless. Because Luo had caused him a great loss before, if he wasn't careful this time, he would be in big trouble.

"Heh heh, Trebol, this time, I will definitely kill you. You can die now," Luo chuckled.

"Hmph, we've known about your abilities for a long time. They're useless against me. As long as I can reconnect my body, I won't die," Trebol said smugly.

They've always wanted the Op-Op Fruit because it has an ultimate ability: the user can perform surgery to grant others immortality.

They wanted to obtain the fruit so they could use it to operate on Doflamingo. However, in the end, Law obtained the fruit instead.

But Luo betrayed them, and as a result, they have not reaped any rewards to this day.

However, although they didn't obtain the fruit, they gained a deep understanding of its abilities. They knew all the powers of the Op-Op Fruit.

While Scalpel possess formidable cutting power, they do not kill. They simply reassemble the severed body pieces, ensuring a healthy outcome.

"Hmph, I ate this fruit, so I understand its abilities far better than you do. This sword can not only save lives, but it can also kill," Law said with a smile. "You only know one side of the story, understand? Trebol."

"Hmph, so what? I refuse to believe you can kill me," Trebol said.

"You're too arrogant and acting like you're superior. Do you think I'm still that little kid you can bully? Let me tell you, I'm all grown up now. You can't control me!" Luo shouted angrily.

When he was working alongside Doflamingo, he was often bullied by this lecherous old man. Every time, he was covered in bruises.

He tolerated it then because he was no match for him. But now he won't tolerate it. If this bastard dares to mess with him, he'll kill him.

"Is that so? Then come on! Luo, let me see just how much stronger you've become." Trebol stopped wasting words and immediately began his attack.

He created a sticky, long whip and began to attack Luo.

Luo also began to fight back. Before long, the two were locked in combat.

Luo used his surgical abilities to begin cutting Trebol's body. However, Trebol quickly dodged.

He wasn't going to let Luo cut him off, because he didn't want to be restricted again. He had suffered a great loss before, and he didn't want to be treated like that again.

He dodged and continued to lash out at Luo with his long whip.

Soon, his long whip stuck to the Scalpel, making it impossible for Luo to use Scalpel.

However, Luo was not one to be easily subdued. He immediately brandished his Scalpel and cut the other man's long whip in half.

He then continued his attack.

The two exchanged blows, neither giving an inch, and they fought with great enthusiasm.

Meanwhile, a fierce battle broke out between Doflamingo and the Straw Hat Boy. This time, the Straw Hat Boy became even more cautious and cunning.

He had suffered quite a few losses before, and he already had some confidence in his abilities.

He knew that he couldn't just rely on reckless tactics to deal with Doflamingo; he had to come up with a plan.

The most troublesome thing is Doflamingo's net. That thing can provide all-around defense, and once Doflamingo uses it, Straw Hat Boy can't get close to him.

Therefore, it's not advisable for him to rely solely on brute force. He would exhaust all his strength, while Doflamingo would be completely drained.

In order to defeat Doflamingo, the Straw Hat Boy used Gear Third, increasing his speed.

His body transformed into a phantom, appearing here one moment and there the next.

"Heh, fast enough, huh? But no matter how fast you are, you can't outrun me," Doflamingo said dismissively.

After saying that, he immediately unleashed his Super Long Whip and struck at the Straw Hat Boy.

Soon, the Super Long Whip struck the Straw Hat Boy.

The Super Long Whip is very long and powerful; with a single swing, it can cut through rocks.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have been cut in half by Doflamingo's Super Long Whip. However, since it was Straw Hat Boy who was attacked, he didn't die, he was just injured.

The Straw Hat Boy was sent flying more than ten meters away by the Super Long Whip, crashing into a wall before finally coming to a stop.

He stood up, clutched his head, and cried out in pain repeatedly, not letting go for a long time.

The Super Long Whip was wrapped with Haki; although he was made of rubber, the Haki could still hit rubber.

So, he suffered a loss.

"Hmph, with skills like that, you think you can kill me? I think you'd better go back sooner rather than later. You can't kill me," Doflamingo said with a calm smile.

"Hmph, you are strong, but I am not weak either. You think I'll give up? Absolutely not." The Straw Hat Boy said, "Although you have knocked me down, I am not yet unable to move. So, we shall continue the fight."

"Hmph, what a stubborn fellow! In that case, I'll take care of another matter first," Doflamingo said with a snort.

"Another thing? What do you mean?" Straw Hat Boy asked, puzzled.

"You've been pestering me and wasting too much of my time. I can't keep waiting like this," Doflamingo said. "Since my fight with you still has some time to go, I'll take care of something else. By the time our fight is over, this matter should be pretty much finished too."

"What do you want to do?" Straw Hat Boy asked curiously.

"Of course, it's about killing everyone on this island. They know too much, which isn't good for me. Once they're dead, I won't have to worry about anything else," Doflamingo said with a smile.

His original goal was to kill these people, but he was unsuccessful because the resistance was too fierce.

He originally wanted to take action himself, but the Straw Hat Boy kept pestering him, and he wanted to kill the Straw Hat Boy immediately, but he couldn't.

Therefore, he had no choice but to do that thing first, because he was worried that if it dragged on for too long, something might go wrong.

"You..." The Straw Hat Boy's eyes widened upon hearing this.

"Heh, angry? So what? You can't stop me, Straw Hat Boy. Just watch! Besides, I think you should blame yourself, because it was your arrival that made things this way. They didn't have to die. But you messed around here, revealing all my secrets. Yes, you succeeded in putting me in a desperate situation. But you also put innocent people in a desperate situation." Doflamingo said with a laugh.

"Hmph, we're doing this to expose the illusion of this place. What you've been doing has always been deception," said the Straw Hat Boy.

"Yes, I was deceiving them, but everyone was living a good life. Didn't you notice? They were wealthy and happy. But now, all of that is gone," Doflamingo said.

"You're right, they did lose everything. But they did learn the truth, that their revered king was a complete fraud," said the Straw Hat Boy.

"Hmph, the truth? What use is that? I think it's completely useless." Doflamingo said, "Next, I'll show you what happens after you learn the truth!"

Having said that, Doflamingo stopped wasting words. He stretched out his hand, pointed to the sky, and began to move his fingers.

Under his control, the once calm Birdcage suddenly began to move. The Birdcage began to shrink towards the center.

As it contracted, many buildings were cut off by those lines and turned into ruins, which was quite terrifying.

"Straw Hat Boy, you only have one hour left. After one hour, there will be no one alive here. They will all be killed. Heh heh, let me tell you! This is the consequence of knowing the truth, understand?" Doflamingo said with a maniacal laugh.

The Straw Hat Boy's eyes reddened as he watched. If all these people died, he would truly regret it.

He pondered for a moment, looked at Doflamingo, and said, "You wait, I will definitely take care of you within this hour. Once I defeat you, this Birdcage will stop."

The ability user was defeated, and his ability naturally disappeared. Therefore, there's no use in regretting it now; he can only forge ahead and resolve everything.
