Little Mingo could no longer laugh.
After a long silence, his once-twisted, twitching fingers slowly settled down.
Meanwhile, the terrified Marines who had been fighting each other suddenly felt their bodies lighten, regaining control.
This isn't fun. I'm leaving.
Under Admiral Sengoku's gloomy gaze, Doflamingo could no longer worry about saving face and immediately prepared to head for the reception hall.
But on second thought, even the Marines were waiting to welcome Austin, while he was going to swagger off to the reception hall to rest.
If anyone found out...
His steps halted. Doflamingo stopped where he stood, hesitating for a moment.
With a sweep of his pink feathered coat, he chose to stand beside the Marines and wait with them.

At the very least, he would never stand together with the Marines and lower his head so easily.
"That's... [Moonlight] Moria!!!"
"Another Shichibukai has arrived!!!"

But who the hell did Moria think he was?
How dare he disrespect me like this!!!
The rapid expansion of his influence lately had made Doflamingo somewhat arrogant. Faced with someone like Moria, who had merely been defeated by Kaido,
