"Who are you? Luo, what do you want?"

After some time, Caesar woke up, looked around, saw Law, and immediately shouted.

"Caesar, where is my heart?"

Luo stared at Caesar and asked coldly, "Where did you put it?"

"Heart?"

Caesar laughed and said, "Oh, right, and your heart too. But your heart isn't in my hands."

"Tell me, where is my heart?" Ro asked Caesar.

"I'm not going to tell you."

Caesar said smugly, "If you know what's good for you, let me go."

"Speak quickly!"

Luo raised his right hand, where a heart was, and squeezed it hard. Caesar immediately collapsed to the ground in pain. "If you don't tell me, I'll kill you right now."

"I'll talk, I'll talk."

Caesar lay on the ground for a while before recovering and said, "Your heart is with Vergo."

"Vergo?"

Luo's face turned ugly. "You actually gave it to him."

"This is what Doflamingo requested."

Caesar quickly replied, "I have no power to resist him."

"Of course I know that." Luo suddenly squeezed his heart, and Caesar immediately collapsed to the ground. Then he said, "Call Vergo."

Before Caesar could speak, Heckle pointed to the monitor and said, "No need to call him, he's already here."

In the corridor, a tall, powerful figure walked towards them, his hands behind his back as he strode forward.

But as he entered a spacious room, a figure appeared in front of him and embraced him.

"What is that?" Luo frowned.

Heckle said, "It's Cecilia, Mr. 3. Why is she taking on this challenge without permission?"

"Your name is Mr. Christmas? Let's go help her."

Luo said quickly, placed the heart in Heckle's hand, and then left the room with Mr. Christmas.

"Who are you?"

Vergo stood at the entrance of the room, looking at the figure in front of him with a hint of curiosity in his expression.

"My name is Cecilia, and I am a member of the Baroque Works."

Cecilia smiled and said, "You're Vergo, one of Doflamingo's top executives?"

"Baroque Works? Top Executive?"

Vergo looked at Cecilia and asked, "I don't know anything about the top executives, but Baroque Works is wanted worldwide, and as the base leader of the G5 Branch, I have an obligation to arrest you."

"Great."

Cecilia said, "The president said you're very strong and asked me to hand you over to Luo, but I want to try you out first."

"Luo?"

Vergo snorted coldly, "You guys actually teamed up. He really is going to make a move against Doflamingo."

"Didn't you say you didn't know Doflamingo?" Cecilia said with a smile. "Why are you admitting it now?"

"It's simple, because you're destined to die here."

"Vergo said coldly, then suddenly his figure flashed and he appeared behind Cecily, thrusting out with his right hand."

Bang.

Faced with this attack, Cecilia swayed her body and dodged it instantly, then kicked out.

"They actually managed to dodge it."

In response to Cecilia's kick, Vergo raised his right leg and kicked out in return.

Bang.

Their legs collided, and the two men came to a standstill.

"Armament Haki?"

Vergo snorted coldly, and in the instant he retracted his right leg, he kicked out.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

Their legs collided more than a dozen times in an instant, neither able to gain the upper hand, seemingly resulting in a draw, but Cecilia's face was extremely unpleasant.

"I've used up too much Armament Haki."

Cecilia sensed the immense power emanating from the other party, which continuously depleted her Armament Haki.

If things continue like this, it will be difficult for me to hold on for much longer.

"Bring it on."

Cecilia suddenly stepped back, creating distance, and transformed into a giant Ostrich Human.

"Devil Fruit User?"

Vergo looked somewhat surprised at the sight, then stomped his feet and appeared not far from Cecilia, kicking out, "They'll die too."

But just as she raised her leg, Cecilia vanished instantly, reappearing behind Vergo, and then launched a flying kick at Vergo's head.

Bang.

Vergo turned around in time, crossing his arms to block in front of him, but his body unconsciously slid back a short distance.

"The speed has increased, and the power has also increased."

Vergo's expression was stern, but the next moment, Cecilia, while in mid-air, suddenly disappeared with her right foot and kicked out more than a dozen times in an instant.

Boom, boom, boom, boom.

Vergo used both hands in unison to block more than a dozen attacks, shattering the surrounding walls, but he still managed to hold Vergo off.

"Is it impossible to break through her defenses?"

Cecilia's speed was at its peak, but she couldn't hurt Vergo at all due to his defense.

Bang.

Suddenly, Vergo reached out with his right hand and grabbed Cecilia's foot. Then Cecilia pulled her other foot out, only to have it grabbed by Vergo's left hand.

Under Cecilia's immense strength, Vergo's hands made a cracking sound.

"Die."

The next moment, Vergo's clothes ripped apart, he grabbed Cecilia with both hands and pulled her down, while kicking his right foot upward from the middle.

boom.

Vergo kicked Cecilia in the stomach, sending her flying through the air, crashing through the wall, and collapsing to the ground, coughing up blood.

"That's amazing."

Cecilia looked pained; her opponent's strength was beyond her expectations.

He possessed immense strength, his physical power surpassing that of himself.

He transformed into Ostrich Human and overpowered him with speed, but was counterattacked by the ostrich.

Moreover, his Armament Haki was far greater than his own, and his own Armament Haki was almost completely depleted after repeated clashes.

That's incredible.

No wonder the president said not to fight him. Not to mention himself, even Heckle might not be able to defeat him.

Swoosh.

Vergo appeared in front of Cecilia in an instant, a bamboo stick appearing in his right hand, which he thrust fiercely at Cecilia.

"Get moving!"

Cecilia tried to prop herself up, but the pain in her abdomen was excruciating. As she watched the bamboo fall, she was filled with regret.

I blame myself for not listening to the president.

Cecilia gritted her teeth and closed her eyes, but the next moment, bang.

Vergo's bamboo was blocked by a knife.

"Long time no see, Vergo."

Luo looked at the figure in front of him and said coldly.

"Luo?"

Vergo snorted and said, "So it was you who did it."

Luo squinted and said, "So what? We can settle our score now."

"Resolved?"

Vergo reached into his robes and said, "Your heart is in my hands, but where... where is it?"

"It's here."

A door opened on the roof, and a figure poked his head out, holding a heart in his hand, looking at him with a grin.

When?

Vergo had no idea when his heart had been stolen.

Mr. Christmas said, "The moment you kicked Cecilia away, I pulled my heart out of your arms."

"So what?"

Vergo snorted and said, "Luo, do you think you can defeat me just because you've retrieved the heart? Don't forget the difference in our strength."

That was in the past.

Luo said coldly, his right hand suddenly drawing his long sword and slashing at Vergo.

"It's no use, you can't hurt me at all."

As Vergo spoke, his entire body was filled with Armament Haki, and the Demon Bamboo in his right hand was raised in front of him.

But the next moment, Vergo found that his field of vision was getting higher and higher.

"This is?"

Vergo saw his lower body standing below, which means...

"You are no match for me."

Luo drew his right sword and instantly cleaved Vergo's upper body into four pieces. After landing, the pieces stuck to the railing.

"You're the first one."

Luo sighed, clenched his fist, and thought of the night thirteen years ago when Vergo appeared, bringing him and Corazon despair.

"You're next, Doflamingo."

Luo's eyes turned cold and sharp.
