A Dire Situation

"This... this is practically a natural disaster..."

Looking at the area covered in smoke and dust, the sailors subconsciously swallowed.

If they hadn't run here to hide, they probably would have been crushed to death.

"Joker!"

Caesar looked at the area ahead with some excitement. Could that man have been killed by the meteorite?

If the other person gets killed, he's finished too!

Just then, the smoke and dust in front cleared, revealing the scene inside.

"Varied...?!"

The navy personnel were completely stunned when they saw the enormous crater ahead.

"Such a terrifyingly huge crater was actually smashed into it!"

"That's not all! Look at their feet!"

Another Marine pointed to Doflamingo's feet and said, "There's absolutely nothing wrong with the feet of those three!"

People were stunned to see the three perfectly intact pillars.

How exactly did these three men manage to protect the area beneath their feet under those circumstances?

"So this is the strength of Marine Admiral..." Caesar said, his face covered in cold sweat.

No wonder Joker said the opponent was as powerful as a monster; it seems that's really true.

This guy is a monster!

"Hello!"

Doflamingo glared angrily at Fujitora and said, "How exactly did your Marshal educate you?!"

"You Mad Dog that bites anyone you see!"

They actually threw a meteorite at him right away...

Is this guy out of his mind?

At that moment, Doflamingo was so enraged that he wanted to kill someone.

"Even among those with both eyes intact, how many possess such terrifying strength..." Law looked at Fujitora warily and said, "Truly worthy of being Marine Admiral."

At this moment, Luo felt immense pressure.

He felt his chances of winning against a man like that were less than 20%.

Fujitora's expression didn't change at all when he heard what the two were saying.

"I was merely testing the waters, please don't be offended," Fujitora said calmly.

After saying that, he paused for a moment, then turned to Luo and continued, "So... next we'll be arresting you. No objections, Mr. Luo?"

"Cut..."

Luo spat, his face turning ugly.

The situation is really bad right now.

Then, Luo turned his attention to the forest nearby and began to think of ways to buy time.

Noticing this, Doflamingo grinned and said, "You don't think you can escape my grasp, do you?"

Stop daydreaming!

Law made no comment, merely glancing at Doflamingo before looking away, which greatly displeased Doflamingo, who instinctively wanted to say something.

Before he could even speak, Fujitora attacked again.

Seeing the meteorite falling again, Law did not hesitate and activated his Devil Fruit ability once more.

"ROOM!"

Shambles!

"Puff!"

The sharp blade sliced through the meteorite, easily severing it!

"Truly worthy of being Shichibukai," Fujitora praised.

That's true, but to Luo, it sounded like he was being mocked.

However, he didn't say anything, only glancing at Caesar in the distance.

Doflamingo retorted irritably, "Fujitora, you old bastard, that guy is my prey!"

After uttering a curse, Doflamingo turned and launched an attack on Law.

"Bullet String!"

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh~"

Like a bullet, the Thread Ball flew from Doflamingo's hand, heading straight for Law in the distance.

"Puff!"

"Hateful."

Knowing he couldn't stay any longer after his cheek was slashed, Luo jumped off the stone pillar without hesitation and rushed into the forest.

"Fufufufufu~"

"Are you playing hide-and-seek, Luo?"

Doflamingo, who had flown into the air, grinned maliciously as he chased after Law, saying, "How naive!"

Although his Observation Haki wasn't as terrifying as that of a peak-level expert, it was impossible for him to escape his pursuit in the forest now!

While thinking this, Doflamingo chased after Law.

The navy, meanwhile, turned to their superior officer and asked, "Mr. Issho, what do we do?"

"Pursue," Fujitora said calmly.

"Yes!"

The navy, having received the order, quickly gave chase, while Fujitora himself focused his attention on the plants nearby, clearly intending to use something to fly over and pursue them.

"You can't escape my grasp, Law!" Doflamingo sneered from behind, "Just obediently prepare to die!"

As they were talking, Doflamingo launched several more attacks on Law, but Law dodged them all with his agile movements.

"Aren't you going to fight back?"

Doflamingo squinted and thought for a moment, then understood what the other person was thinking.

Luo is stalling for time!

'Are they trying to buy time for the Straw Hat Crew in Dressrosa?' Doflamingo thought to himself, 'How naive!'

Do you really think those guys can find the location of their Factory?

Stop joking, okay?!

Even their own people might not be able to find that location!

Even if the Straw Hat Crew could find the Factory, they couldn't possibly destroy it, since... that thing is made of Sea Stone!

Thinking of this, Doflamingo laughed even more heartily.

It's a feeling of having everything under control.

Then, Doflamingo looked at Law, who had stopped to dodge Fujitora's attack, and said, "I know your purpose, Law, but I won't let you succeed!"

Law didn't speak, but looked at Fujitora and Doflamingo who were blocking his way with a grim expression.

'This is... absolutely terrible!'

He has to use his abilities, or these two will really leave him here!

With that in mind, Law activated his Devil Fruit ability without hesitation.

"ROOM!"

"Buzz~"

The next moment, a circular energy shield appeared beside Luo, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.

"Fufufufufu~"

"They really won't shed a tear until they see the coffin," Doflamingo said.

After saying this, he once again hung the Silk Thread thread on the surrounding plants, using this force to rush towards Luo Chong in the distance.

Fujitora glanced calmly at Doflamingo's retreating figure, seemingly lost in thought.

After watching for a while, he activated his Devil Fruit ability, manipulating the plant to fly into the air, intending to chase after Law in the air.

"You can't escape, Shichibukai!"

This statement has a double meaning.

Ah~

"Sunbathing feels so good~" Chopper said, lying on the deck and looking at the sun. "I wonder how things are over there."

Upon hearing Chopper's words, Brook instinctively glanced at Nami and asked, "Nami, what time is it?"

Let me see.

Nami glanced at the time inside the restaurant through the Great Gate and then said, "It's already past three o'clock."

It's past three o'clock.

Brook glanced in the direction of Dressrosa and said, "Mr. Law should have met with Doflamingo by now."

I just don't know how things are going.

Chopper jumped up from the ground and asked, "Is the Factory completely destroyed too?"

"I don't know, but..."

"Hahaha~"

Before Nami could finish speaking, Jiao La's laughter came from the side.

"Why are you laughing?"

"I'm laughing at your naivety!" Jiao La looked at Nami and the other two with a mocking expression and said, "You really think that teaming up with that brat Law will be enough to bring down the young master?"

"Stop joking!"

"That guy does have some skill, but he's far inferior to the young master!"

"If I'm not mistaken, that guy has already been killed by the young master."

"Hahaha~"

Finally, Jiao La couldn't help but burst into laughter again, his expression as exaggerated as could be.

In her eyes, the young master was an absolutely invincible and powerful being; how could a mere Luo possibly fight against him?

Does he even deserve it?

"Shut up!"

Chopper protested, "Law will never lose to that guy!"

Jiao La didn't refute this further, but simply gave Chopper a mocking smile, which infuriated Chopper.

If this guy weren't still a patient, he would definitely beat him up.

Nami, however, wore a worried expression. She wasn't particularly worried about Tra-man, since she wasn't very familiar with him.

Her main concern was Usopp and Nico Robin, who were going to Green Bit with Law.

'I wonder how things are going on their end...'

There's still no news, which is making me quite worried.

Thinking of this, Nami subconsciously frowned.

Just then, the Den Den Mushi on the deck rang again.

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"

"The Den Den Mushi is ringing again?!"

Upon hearing the Den Den Mushi's voice, the three stood up again, a thought simultaneously forming in their minds.

What message is it this time?

With that thought in mind, Chopper quickly rushed over and answered the phone.

"Kaga ~"

"I am Chopper."

"It's Chopper in charge," Law said, panting. "Quick, Nami in charge to sail the pirate ship to Green Bit."

"You've finished the deal?" Chopper asked in surprise.

Does that mean they have achieved a complete victory?

Brook, on the other hand, looked at the Den Den Mushi with a somewhat serious expression; the mimicked expression seemed a little off.

What happened to Mr. Luo?

"I don't have time to explain now," Luo said. "Just get the ship to Green Bit quickly, I need to hand Caesar over to you."

Chopper:???

What does it mean to hand Caesar over to them?

Wasn't Caesar supposed to return it to Doflamingo? Why did he hand it over to them?

"Luo, you..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Law interrupted Nami, saying, "Hurry up, or we're all doomed!"

"Kaga ~"

After ending the call, Luo Xunsi fled in Caesar's direction, clearly intending to get his hands on the guy first.

"You can't escape, Luo!"

Doflamingo, who flew in from behind, raised his hand and fired Bullet String, saying at the same time, "Prepare to die!"

"Bullet String!"

"Whoosh~"

"Puff!"

The Thread Ball, like a bullet, flew over in a flash, piercing Luo's shoulder in the blink of an eye, causing him to scream in pain and fall uncontrollably to the ground.

"Fufufufufu~"

I already said that, didn't I?

Doflamingo, who had arrived not far from Law, grinned maliciously at him and said, "You can't escape!"

After saying that, Doflamingo slowly stepped down from the plant and continued, "Alright, tell me, who were you talking to on the phone just now?"

"Straw Hat?"

"Or is he your partner?"

Luo didn't answer, only breathing heavily, clearly trying to adjust his state.

Seeing that Law had no intention of answering, Doflamingo didn't press the matter further, since it wasn't particularly important anyway.

Then he said, "Hand over Caesar's heart, Ro."

Luo merely gave a cold laugh and offered no reply.

But his hand was unconsciously placed to the side, as if he were protecting something, a detail that Doflamingo immediately noticed.

'Is it there...?'

After figuring out the exact location, Doflamingo was no longer in such a hurry.

"Law, I know what you're up to," Doflamingo grinned. "But there's no point in you risking your life here, because your accomplice, the Straw Hat, has already fallen into the trap I've set for him!"

"Trap?"

"Fufufufufu~"

"That's right." Doflamingo raised his head and said, "He's fighting in the Colosseum right now."

"Fufufufufu~"

"Fufufufufu!"

In the end, Doflamingo couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the laughter grew louder and louder.

"Because of... the Diamond Fruit?"

"That's right!"

"It's the Diamond Fruit!"

Doflamingo said, "This Devil Fruit is Devil Fruit that Fire Fist D. Ace desperately wants, so I'm certain that Straw Hat will also participate in this tournament."

"Judging from the results, I was right."

"Fufufufufu!"

At that moment, Doflamingo felt like a god who controlled humanity!

Yes, he is a god!

Fufufufufu~

"I don't think that kind of place could trap Straw Hat," Luo said in a deep voice.

"Don't underestimate my Colosseum, Luo."

Doflamingo narrowed his eyes and said, "I've really gone all out this time to deal with Straw Hat and Fire Fist Ace!"

In the past, those weaklings in the Colosseum would indeed have no chance against Straw Hat.

But... this time, the participants are top talents from all over the world!

Those guys are all lawless and powerful beings. Even Straw Hat wouldn't be able to escape alive from fighting them!

That's why he's so confident!

Fufufufufu~

Fufufufufu!

Hearing Doflamingo's words, Law's expression also turned ugly.

He naturally understood what Doflamingo meant.

The contestants who came here to compete for that Devil Fruit are all renowned powerhouses from across the seas!

Under these circumstances, it is indeed not an easy task for the Straw Hat to win the championship smoothly.

"Give up, Law!" Doflamingo sneered. "Your alliance is broken!"

"Hateful..."
