Seeing the sword tip pierce his body, Kaido let out a furious roar. His body swelled violently, transforming back into a giant dragon.
"Damn! So he had a move like this too." Doflamingo pulled Narikitsune from his hand, blood streaming down the blade. He had stabbed a huge hole through Kaido's body—if that had been a human body.
But on the giant dragon's body, the wound Doflamingo's sword had inflicted was probably no worse than a needle prick. It was practically insignificant.
This was also a major flaw of Doflamingo's Intangibility. He could only inflict damage roughly equal to the size of the object he made intangible. He could neither use Haki, Flying Slashes, or similar attacks through an intangible object, nor could he perform actions such as cutting to widen the wound while intangible.

This time, Doflamingo also went all out. Illusory
