The Mysterious Person Appeared, Haku Vanished!

There's only one outcome of being corrupted by the will of a Devil Fruit ability: failure to Awakening the Devil Fruit ability!

The Awakening of Zoan Devil Fruit users is different from that of Paramecia, and it carries enormous risks!

When one's mind, body, and abilities are mismatched, forcibly attempting Awakening will almost certainly fail.

If the Awakening fails, although it will still possess terrifying vitality and regenerative ability, its consciousness will be controlled by the animal's will residing in the fruit, and it will never be able to turn back into a human, forever maintaining its beast form (i. e., True Body animal form).

For example, the Jailer Beasts in the Impel Down are living examples!

Haku looked at Sabo with a mischievous grin, her hands wrapped in Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki.

Everyone has their moments of overconfidence, so Haku is quite experienced in dealing with such situations.

After all, when Haku was out there, Garp never missed a Fist of Love!

Sabo, still engrossed in his own world, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He felt as if he were being watched by something dangerous.

In this space, only Haku and he existed.

Sabo quickly turned his attention to Haku's location, only to be met with a fist that kept getting bigger!

Sabo's pupils contracted sharply, alarm bells rang in his mind, and he realized that he had no time to dodge. He hurriedly tried to mobilize the power within his body to defend himself, but because his mind was too immersed in the fantasy of the Awakening of the Zoan Devil Fruit, his reaction speed was noticeably slower.

"Bang!"

Haku's fist slammed into Sabo's abdomen, carrying the combined power of Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, sending Sabo flying. Sabo tumbled several times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Cough cough..." Sabo struggled to get up from the ground, blood already spilling from the corner of his mouth. He clutched his abdomen, feeling the excruciating Pain, and only then did Sabo realize his own weakness!

Haku looked at Sabo, shook her head, and said, "Sabo, the power that the Devil Fruit gives you has its limits. Remember how that punch felt today; it was proof of your inadequacy. True power comes not only from the Devil Fruit, but also from inner resilience and continuous effort."

Sabo listened silently to Haku's words, a resolute glint in his eyes. "I understand!"

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up!

Haku glanced at the Dragon Scales on Sabo's body that he had smashed with a single punch, even though that spot wasn't the strongest point of defense on Sabo's body.

However, the hardness this thing exhibits is already beyond the reach of most others!

Most importantly! Unlike Kaido's abilities, Sabo's regenerative abilities are extremely rapid.

By the time Haku opened the Air Door, Sabo, now in human form, had almost fully recovered.

Back in the Corrida Colosseum, Haku looked down and saw that the match was already halfway through.

Perhaps it won't be long before they enter the finals.

It was time to rest, and Haku extended her concealed Observation Haki into the Royal Palace!

After seeing what was happening over there, Haku felt a sudden toothache.

Usopp and Leo continued to target Sugar, resulting in Usopp's mission failing and causing a commotion in the Royal Palace.

Several members of the Donquixote Family noticed something was wrong and began to hunt down the intruders in the Royal Palace!

The gaze shifts to the second factory in Dressrosa that manufactures Artificial Zoan Devil Fruit.

As planned, the SMILE Factory, which Franky was tasked with destroying, was thwarted by the real man, Señor Pica!

According to the plan, Law, who was supposed to join Luffy, was ambushed by Trebol. Now he's in Doflamingo's hands.

So, Haku was starting to feel a little confused; he had only disappeared for a short while!

As a result, everything collapsed!

It seems like someone is slowly manipulating all of this behind the scenes!

Haku said sternly, "Sabo, you're replacing Luffy in the competition right now! Luffy's crew are threatening you!"

Sabo nodded and hurried to where Luffy was.

Haku was well aware of the gravity of the situation and knew he had to act quickly to deal with this sudden crisis. He first used his Observation Haki to sense the specific situation of the Royal Palace and the SMILE Factory, and then quickly formulated an action plan.

"First, we need to resolve the chaos in the Royal Palace as soon as possible and rescue Usopp and Leo," Haku thought to himself. He had already used his Six Eyes and was preparing to head to the Royal Palace.

However, just before she was about to use Six Eyes Teleportation, Haku suddenly stopped.

The Six Eyes's main characteristic is its 360-degree long-distance vision; it can see what's behind it and even from a great distance.

The reason Haku stopped in her tracks was that someone was standing right behind her!

A person whose face he couldn't see clearly, and whose presence he couldn't feel!

A black curtain-like object suddenly appeared behind the man, enveloping Haku.

All the strange phenomena disappeared!

Haku has disappeared! The Mysterious Person has disappeared!

It's as if nothing happened here?

In the Royal Palace!

Law was eventually brought before Doflamingo by Trebol, where several Donquixote Family executives were also present!

Pica, speaking in her shrill voice, said to Law, "Law, do you think your petty tricks can escape the notice of the great Doflamingo? You so-called rebels are nothing but ants."

Luo calmly replied, "Pica, your voice is truly unbearable. However, don't get too cocky; our plan has only just begun."

Doflamingo's lips curled into a mocking smile. He stared at Law, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light. "Oh? Is that so? Then I'll see what kind of trouble you can cause. But before that, you'd better worry about your own situation."

Luo sensed something was off! He asked, "What do you mean?"

Doflamingo burst into laughter, as if he had thought of something amusing!

He cautioned, "Do you think I won't notice your little schemes right under my nose? And do you really think Haku can protect you? He has a huge problem to deal with right now!!!"

Law understood. The reason Doflamingo was so fearless was because Haku was entangled! Although he didn't know who was able to entangle Haku, that didn't stop Doflamingo from attacking him, or Luffy and the others, without restraint!
