Dressrosa! High above the Kingdom, within the Royal Palace!

Donquixote Doflamingo, the middleman of the Underworld!

His original codename was Joker, but today's newspaper from the World Economic News Company will make him a real Joker!

With veins bulging on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and said, "Trebol! Do you know what's going on? Why is the Float-Float Fruit in Dressrosa?! And why is this fruit a prize in the Corrida Colosseum?!"

"Doflamingo, calm down. We've already contacted the World Economic News Company about the source of this news, but we haven't received a definite reply yet," Trebol advised Doflamingo.

"Calm down? How can I calm down! If I really had this Float-Float Fruit, I would just use it as the prize for this Corrida tournament! But now it's being publicly offered as a prize in the arena, isn't that provoking me? Where am I supposed to find this Devil Fruit?!" Doflamingo roared, his face as dark as the Dark Clouds before a storm.

Trebol frowned slightly. He understood Doflamingo's anger, but he also knew that he needed to remain calm.

Doflamingo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Diamante spoke up, "Dover! The previous Master of that Float-Float Fruit, Golden Lion, died at the hands of that Haku. Could it be that he's behind it?"

Doflamingo's eyes flashed with a sharp light when he heard Diamante's words. He stared intently at Diamante, as if trying to see through his thoughts.

"The death of Golden Lion... Haku..." Doflamingo muttered to himself, seemingly pondering the connection. His expression grew even darker, a cold smile creeping onto his lips. "If it's him, then all of this becomes even more interesting."

Doflamingo, having fully mastered his Awakening abilities, felt a surge of arrogance!

Just then, someone ran in to report that Violet requested to see Doflamingo!

Doflamingo was slightly taken aback, then frowned. Violet, the princess with X-ray vision, appearing at this time was certainly not a coincidence.

"Let her in," Doflamingo said in a deep voice, already having some guesses in his mind.

Soon, Violet entered. She wore a long purple dress, a faint smile on her face, but her eyes revealed a hint of seriousness. In her hands was a leather case!

"Doflamingo, I've heard that the Float-Float Fruit has become a prize in the Corrida Colosseum. That really shocks me!" Violet said with a hint of amusement.

Doflamingo sneered, "You're shocked? I think you already knew. After all, your ability allows you to see through everything."

Violet paused for a moment, but quickly regained her composure. She said earnestly, "Someone asked me to give this to you!"

As she spoke, she opened the box in her hand and showed the contents to Doflamingo!

"Doflamingo!!! This is!" Trebol exclaimed excitedly, pointing to the Float-Float Fruit inside the box.

Even Diamante, who was sitting to the side, couldn't help but stand up!

"I know!" Doflamingo's gaze was also drawn to the Devil Fruit in the box!

Having seen the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, he naturally knew that this Devil Fruit was the one mentioned in the newspaper.

"How did you get this fruit! No, I mean, who told you to bring this fruit here!" Doflamingo stared intently at Violet in front of him.

Violet clearly felt her limbs being bound by some kind of force!

And the one who bound her was none other than Doflamingo right before her eyes!

In no time, Violet felt a lightness in her body. She felt herself regaining control of her body!

"Who is it?" Doflamingo felt the Puppet Thread controlling Violet's body being severed by some force!

Countless tiny, invisible threads are constantly probing in every corner, trying to catch someone they don't know!

"What's going on, Dover! Is someone hiding here?" Trebol asked, scanning his surroundings.

Violet smiled slightly, seemingly unmoved by Doflamingo's actions.

She gently straightened her clothes and said calmly, "Doflamingo, you don't need to know who sent me here with this fruit. The important thing is that it's right in front of you now."

Doflamingo's face was grim, his eyes filled with wariness and doubt. He knew Violet's ability to see through everything, but she hadn't revealed any further information about the fruit's origin.

"You think you can get away with bringing this fruit?" Doflamingo said coldly, his finger twitching slightly, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

Violet met Doflamingo's gaze without flinching. "I never intended to run away from anything. I simply delivered this Devil Fruit!"

"What do you mean? And who exactly told you to bring this Devil Fruit here!" Doflamingo said, looking at the beautiful woman.

Meanwhile, Trebol and Diamante appeared near the doorway, wary that Violet might try to escape!

At the same time, they are also on guard against an unseen enemy!

Violet ignored the people making these subtle moves and said seriously, "Don't even think about it, I won't tell you! And you can't stop me from leaving!"

"Hmph! I'd like to see how you plan to leave!" Diamante said arrogantly.

The words had barely left his mouth when a Blade Aura flashed past!

Having anticipated this, Diamante used the softened steel cloak from the Flag-Flag Fruit to try and block the deadly sneak attack!

Thud! The Blade Aura flashed past!

Diamante's steel cloak developed a tear, which directly slashed his body!

I can't see it!

Doflamingo suddenly felt a bit tricky! Because he hadn't seen who had done it at all!

Violet had been a little apprehensive, felt her confidence soar. She finally understood why Haku had been so comfortable letting her come here alone!

Doflamingo snorted coldly and directly manipulated the threads to attack Violet! He wanted to force the enemy, whose whereabouts were unknown, to come out!

Suddenly, Doflamingo felt a chill on his neck as a tiny wound slowly appeared, only to close up again immediately!

Doflamingo reached up and touched his neck, looking at the blood on his hand. Helpless, he could only say, "Trebol, Diamante! Get her out of here now!"
