Fanxin rescued his companions from the spreading magma, captured Caesar, and helped Law defeat Vergo before Law finished him. Back aboard the ship, Law explained that they would use Caesar and the destruction of his Artificial Devil Fruit operation to provoke Kaido against Doflamingo, while Fanxin decided to keep Caesar for his crew.

• Fanxin stored the marines in Diamond Space, carried them away from the island, and sent Ren Fang and Bingfeng back to guard the ship while he and Little Fox went after Caesar’s allies.
• Fanxin and Little Fox fought Vergo, with Little Fox’s defensive ability turning Vergo’s attacks against him and Fanxin breaking his leg.
• Law intervened and defeated Vergo with his Op-Op Fruit, then threw Vergo’s head into the magma before returning to Fanxin’s ship.
• Fanxin told Luffy that he had captured Caesar, then sent the children with Qiangwei while the crew discussed what to do next.
• Law revealed that Doflamingo traded Artificial Devil Fruits with Kaido and proposed using Caesar to make Kaido turn against Doflamingo.
• Fanxin decided to keep Caesar because he could produce Artificial Devil Fruits for the crew.

Fanxin and Law planned to take the Devil Fruits from Doflamingo’s territory and let Kaido turn against him, while avoiding a direct fight with Doflamingo. After Wang Yan killed Monet with her Magma World, the group set sail for Dressrosa, but Doflamingo appeared in the sky to confront them.

• Law explained that destroying the Devil Fruit production site would provoke Kaido into targeting Doflamingo, and Fanxin agreed to secure the fruits instead.
• Fanxin and Law warned Luffy not to attack Doflamingo directly, since that could draw Kaido into a war with them.

• Fanxin took Wang Yan back to the ship to rest, and the group set sail for Dressrosa alongside Luffy’s ship.
• Doflamingo descended from the sky with two figures and confronted the ships before they had reached Dressrosa.

Fanxin held Doflamingo back so the Straw Hat Pirates and Law could reach Dressrosa and destroy the Devil Fruit factories. Doflamingo left to defend the factories, while Fanxin’s crew set sail for Dressrosa and Fanxin returned to Wolf Valley to make arrangements for the children.

• Doflamingo confronted Law and Fanxin at sea, and Fanxin told Law and the Straw Hat Pirates to continue to Dressrosa while he stalled Doflamingo.

• After Fanxin warned that the Straw Hat Pirates were already headed for Dressrosa, Doflamingo left with two subordinates to protect the factories.
• Fanxin explained to Little Black Cat that they would confront Doflamingo with their allies in Dressrosa, then ordered the crew to sail there and returned to Wolf Valley to visit the children.

Fanxin learned that the children Caesar had enlarged with drugs were suffering irreversible damage and might be saved only by Law, so he set out for Dressrosa to find him. There, Fanxin and his companions searched for the Straw Hat crew, discovered that the island’s toys contained living souls, and headed to the colosseum to meet Luffy.

• Qiangwei told Fanxin that the children’s drug-induced condition caused painful attacks and could eventually kill them, and Fanxin agreed not to send them away until they received treatment.
• Fanxin questioned Caesar, who confirmed the children could not be cured by ordinary means and suggested Law might use the Op-Op Fruit to repair their bodies.
• Fanxin left Caesar confined in Diamond Space and sailed toward Dressrosa, where he selected Jesse, Ren Fang, Bingfeng, and Little Black Cat to accompany him ashore.
• Fanxin used Haki to locate Luffy at the colosseum and sensed that the island’s talking toys contained living souls.
• Fanxin led his companions toward the colosseum to find Luffy and discuss their plans.

Fanxin watched Luffy defeat Chinjao in the colosseum and learned that Luffy had entered the tournament to reclaim Ace’s Flame-Flame Fruit. After guards blocked the exits on Doflamingo’s orders, Fanxin suspected the colosseum was part of a trap and stayed to investigate.

• Luffy defeated Chinjao in the arena and restored the point on his head, winning a place in the finals.
• Fanxin asked Luffy about the Flame-Flame Fruit, and Luffy said he intended to reclaim it because Ace had owned it.
• Fanxin warned Luffy that Doflamingo might be using the fruit to lure him into a trap, then left Bingfeng and Jesse to watch over him.
• Guards prevented Fanxin, Ren Fang, and Little Black Cat from leaving the colosseum, so Fanxin returned and searched the building for a secret.
• Fanxin concluded that Doflamingo might trap the weakened tournament fighters and told the others they had to secure the Flame-Flame Fruit.

Fanxin gave up on competing for the Flame-Flame Fruit after Sabo reunited with Luffy and took his place in the tournament. Fanxin and his companions left the arena to seize Doflamingo’s factory, where they split up and fought their way inside.

• Fanxin told Luffy he wanted the Flame-Flame Fruit, but Luffy said he had not decided what to do with it after obtaining it.
• Sabo appeared, reunited with Luffy, and explained that he had come to claim the Flame-Flame Fruit in Ace’s memory.
• Sabo and Luffy switched clothes so Sabo could compete in Luffy’s place, while Fanxin hid Luffy in Diamond Space.
• Fanxin and his companions left the arena and headed for the factory, fighting past the guards who pursued them.
• Fanxin found the factory beneath a tall building, entered with his companions, and split the group into two search parties.
• Little Black Cat summoned robots that attacked the uniformed people blocking Fanxin’s path with bolts of lightning.

Fanxin entered Dressrosa’s underground base and learned from Usopp that Sugar’s Hobby-Hobby Fruit had turned people into toys and erased memories of them. He continued toward the factory to seize it, while Usopp, Robin, and the Tontatta set out to confront Sugar and Trebol prepared to defend her.

• Little Black Cat ordered the robots to defeat the guards, and Fanxin led his group into the underground base.
• Fanxin sensed that the toys were living beings, and Ren Fang guessed that a Devil Fruit ability had created them.
• Usopp told Fanxin that Sugar had turned people into toys and erased others’ memories, then asked him to help defeat her.

• Trebol found the executive tower’s surroundings in chaos, secured Sugar, and went outside to suppress the invaders.
• Fanxin reached the factory and prepared to move the building into Diamond Space while his companions stood guard.

Fanxin stole the factory by lifting it into his Diamond Space, then tried to leave Dressrosa with Ren Fang and the others. Trebol confronted them and fought Fanxin, but Bingfeng stepped in to counter his Sticky-Sticky Fruit with her ice powers.

• Fanxin merged with all the Diamond Beasts inside him, dug out the factory, and stored it in his Diamond Space.
• Trebol blocked Fanxin and demanded the factory back, but Fanxin mocked him and refused.
• Trebol attacked with sticky liquid, but Fanxin dodged it and then fought him with diamond blades, which failed to injure him.
• Trebol trapped Fanxin in the sticky liquid and ignited it, but Fanxin survived the explosion unharmed.
• Trebol attacked again, and Fanxin dodged before asking Bingfeng to handle him; Bingfeng froze the area and sent ice at Trebol.

Bingfeng battled Trebol while Fanxin rescued Usopp, the wounded dwarves, and toy Robin, whose identity he could not remember because Sugar’s power erased her from others’ memories. Fanxin then confronted Trebol for Sugar and sent Straw Hat Luffy toward Doflamingo, leaving the fight over Sugar to himself.

• Bingfeng froze Trebol’s mucus attacks and fought him, but her ice spikes failed to draw blood from his strange body.
• Fanxin and Little Black Cat went to check on Usopp and found him and the dwarves injured after their mission to stop Sugar failed.
• Fanxin moved Usopp and the wounded dwarves into his Diamond Space, then learned that the toy clinging to him was Robin, though Sugar’s power had erased his memories of her.
• Fanxin sent Robin into his Diamond Space and returned to Trebol, demanding that he hand over Sugar.
• Fanxin took Straw Hat Luffy out and sent him toward Doflamingo, while Bingfeng went with him to guide him to the palace.

Fanxin defeated Trebol’s advantage by discovering that Trebol hid his frail body behind mucus, then seized Sugar and carried her away. When Fanxin knocked Sugar unconscious, the toys across Dressrosa returned to their true forms, exposing Doflamingo’s secrets and putting his rule at risk.

• Fanxin used the Dragon-Slaying Sword, diamond blades, and Soul Perception to discover that Trebol’s mucus concealed his frail body.
• Fanxin attacked Trebol and took Sugar from him, restraining her with Seastone handcuffs before escaping with the others.
• Trebol failed to catch Fanxin and headed to the palace to report Sugar’s capture to Doflamingo.
• At the shore, Fanxin demanded that Sugar lift her curses, then knocked her unconscious when she refused.
• Sugar’s loss of consciousness restored the toys across Dressrosa to their human and animal forms, and the freed people began cursing Doflamingo.

Fanxin and Ren Fang secured Sugar while the restored toys gathered to attack Doflamingo, who faced Marine Admiral Fujitora Issho in the palace. When the uprising reached the palace, Doflamingo mobilized his forces as Fujitora left him to fight the rebels first.

• Fanxin remembered Robin, and he and Ren Fang decided to keep Sugar handcuffed under a robot's watch and store her in the Diamond Space.
• Fanxin sent Little Black Cat's robots to patrol the island while he and Ren Fang waited on a roof.

• Doflamingo learned that Trebol was missing and ordered his executives and guards to gather at the palace.
• Fujitora left, intending to deal with Doflamingo after the rebels had weakened him, while Doflamingo prepared to respond to the uprising.

Doflamingo learned that his secrets had been exposed and planned to use Birdcage to trap everyone on the island and kill them. Straw Hat Luffy reached the palace to challenge him, while Bingfeng drew Trebol away so Luffy could fight Doflamingo.

• Doflamingo dismissed Trebol’s apology for losing Sugar and concluded that their enemies and freed prisoners made their situation difficult.
• Doflamingo decided to use Birdcage to prevent anyone from escaping or revealing his secrets, and he said he would kill Fujitora Issho despite Trebol’s concerns.

• Bingfeng froze half the palace, hid within the icy world, and used its cold and attacks to wear Trebol down.

• Diamante told Doflamingo that the Revolutionary Army’s Chief of Staff had taken the Flame-Flame Fruit, and Doflamingo ordered him to the palace to begin the Birdcage Plan.

• Fanxin and Bingfeng agreed to protect ordinary people by bringing them to Fanxin’s Diamond Space, while leaving Doflamingo’s officers to the colosseum fighters.

Doflamingo trapped Dressrosa with an unbreakable thread cage and forced ordinary people to attack one another, so Fanxin, Bingfeng, Ren Fang, and Little Black Cat’s robots began rescuing civilians and clearing Doflamingo’s guards. At the coliseum, Sabo claimed the Flame-Flame Fruit, revealed himself to Diamante, and destroyed the arena floor, sending its seawater into the underground base.

• Fanxin and Bingfeng discovered Doflamingo’s threads had sealed Dressrosa; Bingfeng failed to cut them with her Haki-coated ice sword, so they concluded Doflamingo had to be defeated to end the cage.
• Little Black Cat spotted townspeople and pirates attacking one another under Doflamingo’s control, and Fanxin ordered its robots to rescue the injured and controlled while he and Ren Fang gathered civilians into his Diamond Space.
• Bingfeng flew off to freeze Doflamingo’s subordinates and clear a path toward the palace as Fanxin, Ren Fang, and Little Black Cat’s robots worked to save people across Dressrosa.
• Sabo ate the Flame-Flame Fruit at the coliseum, held Rebecca, and revealed his identity to Diamante after the arena contest ended.
• Sabo used Fire Fist to smash through the arena floor, causing the coliseum’s seawater to drain into the underground base.

After Sabo freed Rebecca from the underground base, he explained the Revolutionary Army’s investigation into Doflamingo and arranged for Fanxin’s robots to protect her. Fanxin met Rebecca and acknowledged that his group had helped trigger the chaos in Dressrosa, leaving her to face the coming conflict with the kingdom’s secrets exposed.

• Diamante escaped his restraints when the seawater drained away, reported the breach to Doflamingo, and then headed for the palace after failing to stop the powerful escapees.
• Sabo carried Rebecca out of the underground base and told her that Lucy was Luffy, a pirate who had decided to help defeat Doflamingo.
• Sabo showed Rebecca the weapons stored beneath the coliseum and explained that the base was only a transit point for Doflamingo’s underworld dealings.
• Rebecca insisted on joining the fight, so Sabo entrusted her safety to a group of robots sent by Fanxin.
• The female robot took Rebecca to Fanxin, who apologized for helping spark the unrest and said exposing Doflamingo’s crimes had made a wider war inevitable.

Fanxin gave Rebecca flying armor and a Devil Fruit, then sent her to guide civilians to safety while he continued rescuing people. At the royal palace, Wang Yan confronted the stone man and kept him occupied so Luffy could reach Doflamingo.

• Luffy struggled to get past the stone man, so Wang Yan appeared and offered to hold him back.
• Wang Yan turned the palace grounds into magma and attacked the stone man, forcing him to focus on her instead of Luffy.

Wang Yan kept Rock Man occupied while Straw Hat Luffy reached the royal palace and challenged Doflamingo. Law arrived in time to rescue Luffy from Trebol, and the two prepared to fight their opponents separately.

• Doflamingo created a powerful string clone to fight Straw Hat Boy while his real body battled Law, and both fights stalled.
• Little Black Cat reported the stalemates to Fanxin, who ordered Bingfeng and Wang Yan to help fight Doflamingo's clone.
• When Wang Yan could not safely leave Rock Man, Fanxin sent robots to bring Zoro to the palace to deal with him.
• Zoro agreed to go with the robots, arrived near the palace, and headed inside to find Rock Man.

Zoro confronted Pica at the royal palace and learned from Wang Yan that he needed to separate Pica from the rocks to attack his real body. After Wang Yan left to help Straw Hat Boy, Zoro kept Pica from reaching the palace and fought him directly, but Pica continued to evade his attacks by hiding in stone.
