Donquixote Family, Defeated!

Although intimidated by the Conqueror's Haki aura released by Austin, what Doflamingo feared most wasn't Austin himself, who was three years younger than him, but rather the remnants of the Roger Pirates that might still exist behind him!

Even though the Pirate King Gol D. Roger was arrested, there was no news of any of his terrifying crew members meeting misfortune.

With the current strength of the Donquixote Family, they were still far from being able to contend with such monsters.

But he didn't believe he would lose to a mere fifteen-year-old. As long as he eliminated all witnesses, no one would know it was him.

It couldn't be entirely blamed on Doflamingo for having such an inflated thought. After all, having grown up in the Four Blues, he couldn't comprehend the terror of true powerhouses in the New World.

"Don't get too arrogant!! Bastard!!!"

An equally shocking aura erupted, and clusters of black and red lightning from clashing Conqueror's Haki spread out like a spiderweb.

However, compared to Austin's Conqueror's Haki, Doflamingo's Haki was slightly more immature and wild.

And compared to Austin's dominance and disdain for the world, his Conqueror's Haki revealed more of a sinister and violent nature, as if it contained hatred and resentment towards the injustices of the world.

With just a slight curl of his finger, clusters of slender yet sharp threads appeared from his fingertips.

They were as thin as hair, and to the onlookers, the threads were barely visible, only catching glimpses of reflected cold light.

The String-String Fruit ability, which was originally useless, had been developed to the point where it had become a sharp weapon capable of slicing through steel.

He launched a killing blow right from the start, his fierce movements aimed directly at Austin's neck. Austin, as if he hadn't reacted, calmly watched Doflamingo's sudden attack.

Die!!!

He's just a lucky guy who hitched a ride, what right does he have to stand before me!!!

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Doflamingo's eyes. The invisible threads cut through the air.

A faint black sheen attached to them, adding even more power.

Even if he was considered trash, Doflamingo, relying solely on his Haki, was an absolute prodigy in Paradise, a standout among the best!!

Upstairs, the women watching the situation on the field were greatly alarmed.

"Lord Austin!!!"

"No!!!"

In their eyes, facing Doflamingo's fierce attack, Austin seemed completely unresponsive, standing frozen in place, allowing himself to be slaughtered.

Some of the more timid ones had already closed their eyes, trembling as they covered them with their hands, afraid to witness the scene of their beloved, heroic figure bleeding out.

Little Six and Little Seven almost couldn't hold back and wanted to rush forward, but Sammy stopped them.

However, even she herself had trembling pupils, constantly monitoring the situation on the field.

Because she knew that if Austin fell, an enraged Doflamingo would not spare anyone present; everyone would have to pay with their lives to appease his fury!

As the onlookers watched the center of the field with bated breath, seemingly anticipating bloodshed, no one noticed a flicker of uncontrollable shock on Doflamingo's face.

What's going on?!

Why wasn't there the distinct feeling of cutting into flesh, like usual?

The tall man before him, for a brief moment, seemed to not exist in this world, completely ignoring his killing blow.

His fierce expression froze on his face as he looked at the man before him, who hadn't moved an inch, in disbelief.

He suddenly noticed a terrifying crimson glow flashing in Austin's pupils.

The slight curve of Austin's lips seemed to suggest that everything that had just happened was merely him toying with a clown.

He then gently extended a hand, reaching towards the black threads that had just passed through him, and grasped them.

With a slight exertion of force, crack, crack, crack...

The sound was like casually crushing a handful of undercooked thin noodles.

Before Austin's flowing Ryuo, Doflamingo's shallow Armament Haki, which had created threads sharp enough to easily cut steel, shattered inch by inch.

A pair of jet-black hands, glowing with red, surged out from Doflamingo's lapse in concentration.

That inexplicable monstrous strength, even when casually gripping his neck and lifting him off the ground, couldn't budge him at all.

Clearly, the scene before him had greatly shaken Doflamingo's arrogant heart!

The shift in offense and defense happened too suddenly. The hundreds of women from the red-light district watching from the periphery, their mouths slightly agape, stared at Austin's attack.

Including Little Six and Little Seven, they were all stunned, and even Madam Sammy's cigarette fell from her mouth without her noticing.

Because at this moment, Austin had finally gotten serious, his long black hair moving as if in a windless environment.

"Boom! Crackle!!!"

Compared to when he first appeared, the even denser black and red lightning suddenly exploded throughout the area, with lightning bolts like heavenly might crisscrossing and striking the surrounding tall buildings, kicking up clouds of dust.

Conqueror's Haki Infusion, a materialized technique, was forcefully used by Austin for an overwhelming display of aura, with remarkable effect.

Already in a disadvantageous position within the clash of Conqueror's Haki, Doflamingo's entire aura seemed to be forcefully crushed. He was enduring an unimaginably immense pressure.

Under this pressure, he couldn't even muster the thought of resisting.

His worldview was being reshaped.

"What a joke!!! How can the gap be this huge!!!"

Streams of blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, dripping down his chin onto the ground.

To avoid yielding to this Haki, Doflamingo would rather bite off his own teeth than admit the fear in his heart at this moment.

The power was so strong that even though Lord Austin consciously avoided the young girls in the red-light district, the leaked wisps of residual power still caused them to involuntarily fall to their knees, trembling uncontrollably.

In the center of this overwhelming black and red lightning, only one proud figure stood tall, like a demon god emerging from the abyss.

This was the first time he had unleashed his Haki at its full potential without any reservations.

Even Austin himself felt that for his age, his Conqueror's Haki was perhaps a bit too strong.

Such Haki would surely give people a strong urge to surrender in the future.

While troubled by his own strength, on the other hand, the force in Austin's hands did not diminish in the slightest.

Conqueror's Haki Infusion combined with monstrous strength; even using less than a tenth of his power, he still made Doflamingo's Armament Haki-infused neck creak.

Under the dual assault of suffocation and mental pressure, after only a few seconds, the newcomer who had dominated the North Blue, the Heavenly Yaksha, Doflamingo, finally let his neck go limp and completely fainted.

Thus, (Narrator's voice for Pirate King)

On the Sabaody Archipelago, in the lawless zone, the Donquixote Family, led by the pirate with a bounty of 340 million, the Heavenly Yaksha Doflamingo, encountered Black Gun Austin, and was defeated.
