Bartolomeo's victory, Law's earlier memories

In the video, Bartolomeo interlaced his middle and index fingers and said, "Protective barrier."

Only then did everyone realize that there was an almost completely invisible transparent barrier in front of Bartolomeo.

"Just by curling your fingers, you can create a protective barrier around yourself. It's common knowledge that even a child knows!" Bartolomeo looked at Elizabello II with a smug expression and said, "I am Barrier Man ate the Barrier-Barrier Fruit -Barrier Fruit."

As he spoke, he pushed his fingers forward and shouted, "Screen Impact!"

"Whoosh!"

The transparent barrier then hurtled towards Elizabello II like a tiger descending a mountain, sending him flying. He collapsed onto the arena, unconscious.

At this point, only Bartolomeo remained standing in the entire arena.

Seeing this, Gatz reluctantly announced, "Eek! War Queen Elizabello II is unable to fight! The winner of Section B... is... Damn it, it's Bartolomeo."

As Gatz finished speaking, a loud chorus of boos erupted from the audience.

"You, all of you, go to hell!" Bartolomeo shouted defiantly at the crowd in the stands, arms outstretched.

On the screen, a barrage of angry comments immediately appeared: {Damn it! I didn't expect Bartolomeo to be a Devil Fruit User after all. The Barrier-Barrier Fruit?! It really is a fruit with amazing defensive capabilities!}

{This guy was really good at hiding his abilities! No wonder Hack and Bellamy's attacks were ineffective against him; he blocked them all with his barrier! This Devil Fruit ability is truly terrifying!}

{Ugh! Seeing Bartolomeo advance is worse than death for me! I'm so angry!}

"I can't believe Bartolomeo actually won in the end! But he already has Devil Fruit, so why is he trying to steal the Flame-Flame Fruit?!"

In the video, in response to the questions raised by the viewers, Bartolomeo immediately answered himself, "I must offer the Flame-Flame Fruit to that person."

As he finished speaking, the scene shifted back to the locker room, where there were many injured players from the match.

Therefore, all the medical staff in the entire rest room who could be put to use were put to use.

In no time, the entire lounge was a flurry of activity.

Just then, Luffy, who had just climbed back over the outer wall, arrived at the entrance and happened to run into Bellamy, who was being carried in by medical staff. He quickly went over and asked with concern, "Bellamy, are you alright?!"

"Why... why did you cheer for me?!" Bellamy didn't answer him, but said resentfully, "It makes me lose face! I really haven't changed at all!"

"No! You've changed, Bellamy," Luffy encouraged.

Upon hearing this, Bellamy gritted his teeth, then smiled and said, "The one who truly changed is you. Your domineering Haki, far beyond my imagination, truly makes me feel ashamed! My self-esteem is almost completely gone! Straw Hat Luffy."

Just as he finished speaking, Bartolomeo walked in from outside. "Straw... Straw Hat Luffy," he said, looking at Luffy with a shocked expression.

Then, the scene shifts again to Law, who is being held down by Fujitora using the weight attached to his Cane Sword. Law's face is contorted in pain as he gasps for breath.

The next second, Luo's recent memories appeared on the screen, and the first thing that caught the eye was a string of words—"Northeast of Dressrosa, Café".

After disguising themselves, Luo and his companions sat on chairs outside, drinking coffee and chatting with the shop owner.

"Green Bit? I wouldn't really recommend you go there," the coffee shop owner asked. "Are you researchers or explorers?"

"Ah! That's about right!" Usopp replied.

"In that case, unless it's a matter of life and death, I advise you to give up," the coffee shop owner said earnestly.

"Why? That bridge doesn't look very sturdy!" Robin asked, looking at the rusty iron bridge not far across from the coffee shop.

"Yes! That iron bridge is indeed very sturdy, but look, nobody crosses it anymore!" the coffee shop owner explained. "Because a group of Fighting Fish came to the vicinity of Green Bit. Although it seems that people were crossing the bridge before they appeared, that was more than two hundred years ago!"

"Whoosh, shopkeeper, what's Fighting Fish?" a man wearing a black hat and sunglasses, with a mustache, asked.

"Oh! That's a ferocious fish with long horns," the coffee shop owner explained, gesturing as he spoke. "They attack any boats that come near. If you try to cross by boat, you're in for a rude awakening! Even though the bridge has been reinforced with iron, it seems to be of little use against them."

"Hey! What do you mean by 'useless'? Boss, do you mean those fish could even capsize an iron bridge?" Usopp asked anxiously.

"Who knows! What happens after crossing the bridge is only known to those who have crossed it." The coffee shop owner shrugged, a mischievous grin on his face. "And I don't know anyone who's been there and can come back."

Having said that, he turned and went back into the shop, leaving a panicked Usopp behind. He then turned to Law and suggested, "Hey! Torao, let's change the handover location right now!"

"Exactly! You should also consider the people doing the handover! Idiot." The man with the mustache and black sunglasses immediately chimed in.

To everyone's surprise, Luo completely ignored them, calmly picked up his coffee, and said indifferently, "Regarding this, I will absolutely not change my mind. Things have come to this point! Stop arguing!"

At this point, Luo's tone changed, a hint of doubt appearing on his face. He said, "More than that, I'm worried about the current state of this country."

"Doflamingo, who is clearly the ruler of a country, suddenly abdicated!"

"To my surprise, the city was still peaceful and harmonious!"

As he spoke, Luo pointed to the Dressrosa people who were walking around calmly.

"That's not something you need to worry about right now," Usopp immediately retorted.
