Wonder What Luffy's Reaction Will Be

"Wanhao contestant!"

"Is Wanhao here?!"

"Now we're just waiting for you!"

Hearing the sounds coming from the corridor, Sabo subconsciously raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is that your alias?"

Didn't you see behind me?

Xi Yan pointed to the spot behind him where his name was written.

"You've been making me walk in front ever since I met you. What do you think of that?" Sabo rolled his eyes.

At first, he only saw Xi Yan's front.

As for what happens after we meet?

To prevent him from launching a sudden sneak attack, this guy always made him walk in front, which left him quite helpless.

However, considering the other party's special circumstances, Sabo didn't dwell on it, since the other party did indeed need to conceal their identity.

Xi Yan didn't react much after hearing Sabo's words. After all, he had participated in many battles with only the sixth brother, so being cautious was not wrong.

"Since you've decided not to participate in this competition, then I'll take care of seizing the Diamond Fruit," Sabo said.

"Good."

Xi Yan nodded. Since he had chosen to believe in Luffy's older brother, he wouldn't go back on his word.

"So what do we do now?" Perona asked.

We can't just sit here and wait for the game in D Area to end.

"Of course we're going to find Luffy," Xi Yan said. "We need to let him know that his brother is looking for him."

I wonder how happy that guy will be when he sees Sabo.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xi Yan's face.

"Let's go then."

"Profound!"

Meanwhile, on the other side...

While Xi Yan and the others were busy with their own affairs, Luo was desperately trying to buy them time.

"Cut line!!"

"Whoosh~"

"Puff!"

Seizing the opportunity before Law landed, Doflamingo unleashed his attack without hesitation, instantly slicing all the surrounding trees into pieces!

Law, however, used his Devil Fruit ability to teleport to a short distance away just before the attack arrived, thus dodging it.

"Huff... huff..."

Feeling the strain on his body, Luo's face was covered in sweat, and he was also under immense pressure.

'I wonder if Nami and the others have arrived yet,' Law thought to himself.

We need to hand Caesar over to them as soon as possible, otherwise the situation will only get worse.

Thinking of this, Luo glanced to the side out of the corner of his eye, clearly intending to rush out from there.

By the way... find that guy Caesar!

Doflamingo, however, keenly noticed Law's shifting gaze, which allowed him to seize the opportunity.

"Wrapping thread!"

"Whoosh~"

A large number of white Silk Thread flew out from Doflamingo's hands and instantly reached Law, binding him tightly to a large tree.

"Bump!"

"Luo."

Doflamingo, strutting arrogantly towards Law, said, "This game of stalling for time is over."

Seeing that Doflamingo did not continue his attack, Law did not immediately use his Devil Fruit to escape. Instead, he planned to say something more to buy time and recover some strength.

"Doflamingo," Law said, his face grim, looking at Doflamingo. "What was that meaningful thing you just said?"

"Fufufufufu~"

"Law, if you want to chat with me about everyday things, first give me back Caesar's heart," Doflamingo grinned.

If this guy is smart enough to return Caesar's heart to him, then he wouldn't mind letting Law die knowing the truth.

"Heh, so you really want Caesar's heart that badly?" Law suddenly raised his head, staring intently at Doflamingo, and said, "Is it because you're afraid I'll kill him?"

"No... you're probably worried about not having SMILE!"

At this point, Law even wore a mocking expression, which infuriated Doflamingo.

What's that brat going to say now?

"Doflamingo, I know what you're afraid of." Law said with a smirk, "Without Artificial Devil Fruit, you would definitely be killed by an enraged Kaido."

"After all... that guy doesn't care why you can't produce Devil Fruit!"

Such a being wouldn't care why Doflamingo lost SMILE; he would only care about whether he could obtain Artificial Devil Fruit!

Therefore... if Doflamingo can't produce the Artificial Devil Fruit, the Beast Pirates will assume that Doflamingo unilaterally broke the contract, and then they will bring people to destroy this place!

Doflamingo naturally understood this as well, which is why his face was already contorted with rage and veins were bulging when Law uttered those words.

This brat is trying to drive him to his doom!

"Then you should just die!"

"Whoosh~"

Without further ado, Doflamingo decisively unleashed several terrifying Silk Thread powerful enough to slice through rock, heading straight for the trapped Law.

Seeing this, Law knew he couldn't stall for time with words any longer, so he activated his Devil Fruit ability, teleporting himself and his weapon away.

"ROOM!"

Shambles!

"Whoosh~"

"You think you can escape my grasp?"

Doflamingo, who had used his Observation Haki to pinpoint Law's location, turned around without hesitation and launched an attack on Law behind him.

"Whoosh~"

In the blink of an eye, the incredibly strong Silk Thread wrapped around Luo's leg, causing him to fall to the ground.

Doflamingo seized the opportunity, rushing to Law and grabbing his neck with his right hand, which was wrapped in Haki, to prevent the guy from escaping again.

"Luo."

Doflamingo grinned maliciously at Law and said, "Now, checkmate!"

Law didn't speak, but stared at Doflamingo with a grim expression, while also thinking about how to escape again.

But Doflamingo didn't give him that chance. Instead, he decisively raised his right hand, intending to cripple Law first.

Just then, Fujitora appeared in front of Doflamingo, raising his Cane Sword to block Doflamingo's hand.

Doflamingo:???

"Fujitora?"

Doflamingo frowned and glanced at Fujitora, saying, "What do you mean?"

Why is this guy getting in the way of me killing Luo?

Could it be... that he has some ulterior motive?

"Let's stop here, Heavenly Yaksha," Fujitora said calmly.

As they spoke, Fujitora used the power of the Press-Press Fruit to pin Law firmly to the ground, thus restraining him.

Seeing this, Doflamingo released his grip on Law's hand, stood up, and looked at Fujitora with a questioning gaze, wanting an answer.

Seeing this, Fujitora said, "My purpose is not to kill Mr. Luo, but to arrest him."

This statement conveys a message to Doflamingo: Now that this person has been captured, you, Heavenly Yaksha, have no right to kill him under the nose of Marine Admiral like myself.

He intends to take this former Shichibukai, Trafalgar Law, back and Underwater Great Prison.

Doflamingo naturally understood Fujitora's meaning. Since that was the case, he would let the guy go; after all, he had achieved his goal.

"Since you've said so, then this guy is yours to handle," Doflamingo said.

Perfect, it'll be easier to do things later if I give this Marine Admiral face.

Thank you.

Doflamingo merely sneered at this and offered no response.

Thank you?

If he hadn't been unable to kill this Marine Admiral, he would have definitely taken him down along with Law!

After giving a cold snort in his heart, Doflamingo turned his gaze back to Law.

"Lord, I'll take Caesar's heart," Doflamingo said.

As he spoke, he used his Devil Fruit ability to flick out a Silk Thread, precisely catching another aura emanating from Law, which he then took out and placed in his hand.

"It really is the heart."

Looking at the heart in his hand, Doflamingo's lips curled into a smile, displaying the air of a victor.

"Oh, right."

"Don't you know what you want to know about that meaningful thing?"

"Now that I have some time, I'll tell you about it."

Upon hearing Doflamingo's words, Law's heart stirred. If this guy was willing to talk a little more, he could buy himself some more time.

Thinking of this, Law struggled to open his eyes and looked at Doflamingo, saying, "What... is... it?"

Helpless, he could only manage to utter a few words because he was suppressed by Fujitora's Press-Press Fruit.

That happened a long time ago.

Reflecting on his knowledge of history, Doflamingo said, "Eight hundred years ago, the King of twenty countries gathered at the center of the world and together created a vast organization."

"And this enormous organization is the current World Government!"

Upon hearing this, Fujitora glanced at Doflamingo with some surprise; he truly hadn't expected the World Government to be established in this way.

Doflamingo ignored Fujitora's reaction and continued, "Except for the Nefertari family of Alabasta, all the other King have taken their families to live in the Holy Land, Mary Geoise."

"So strictly speaking, only 19 families resided in the Holy Land."

"And those descendants of the creators are the Celestial Dragons of today!"

"In other words, since 800 years ago, nineteen countries in this world have lost their Royal Family."

"Do you understand?"

Listening to Doflamingo's explanation, Law subconsciously frowned. To be honest, he still didn't understand what Doflamingo was trying to say.

Is he showing off that he's Celestial Dragons?

He already knew about that.

Doflamingo wasn't angry at all, since Law was already trapped, so he didn't mind saying a few more words to him.

"Simply put, after the loss of their Royal Family, the nineteen nations will independently choose a successor," Doflamingo said. "Thus, a new Royal Family is born."

"Take our Kingdom of Dressrosa for example, his successor is the Riku Family!"

"And we, the Don Quixotes, are the creators of the world, the Holy Land of immigrants— Mary Geoise!"

"That's right, this country originally belonged to our Donquixote Family!"

"Fufufufufu~"

"Fufufufufu!!!"

In the end, Doflamingo began to laugh uncontrollably.

That's right, he simply reclaimed what was rightfully theirs. What's the problem with that?

This is also why the World Government hasn't intervened.

"So that's how it is?!"

Law frowned as he looked at Doflamingo, surprised that the other party was not only Celestial Dragons, but also a former member of the Dressrosa Royal Family.

Fujitora frowned subconsciously; it seemed that Doflamingo's problem was more troublesome than he had imagined.

It seems that completely overthrowing the Shichibukai is not an easy task.

But that's alright, he has plenty of patience.

With that in mind, Fujitora turned his attention to Law, wondering if this guy was the key to breaking the deadlock.

If this person is the key to breaking the deadlock, then letting him go now wouldn't be a bad idea.

After confirming his thoughts, Fujitora subtly reduced his strength.

"There's still one thing I don't understand," Law said, looking at Doflamingo. "You're clearly Celestial Dragons, so why are you a pirate?"

Upon hearing this, Doflamingo, who was still laughing, immediately stopped.

It was the feeling of having a sore spot suddenly hit, but he still couldn't bring himself to kill that brat.

Thinking of this, Doflamingo's face contorted with rage, veins bulging.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his anger, Doflamingo said, "It used to be, but it's not anymore."

What does blood relation matter?

What does fate matter?

"Fufufufufu~"

"I think there are probably very few people in this world who have experienced such a bumpy life as me."

As Celestial Dragons, he could have lived a comfortable life in the Holy Land Mary Geoise, indulging in a life of debauchery.

That was arguably the most luxurious lifestyle in the world!

But it was because of his mentally challenged father that his family fell from grace, from their lofty position to that of beggars...

And his mother was killed by his bastard father!

Thinking of this, an incredibly chilling glint appeared in Doflamingo's eyes.

However, Doflamingo quickly composed himself. After all, he had already killed that guy with his own hands, so there was no need for him to continue being angry over that bastard.

"Explain it more clearly," Luo said with difficulty.

Upon hearing this, Doflamingo's expression, which had just returned to normal, darkened once more.

"That's a pity, Luo."

Without turning his head, Doflamingo said, "I'd love to have a drink and chat with you about what happened in the past, but unfortunately, I don't have the time right now."

"I still need to deal with the Straw Hat Pirates in Dressrosa."

Those guys are in Dressrosa right now, so I have to get rid of them as soon as possible.

As for Luo?

Since Marine Admiral Fujitora had already spoken, he couldn't just kill Law directly, so he had no choice but to hand the guy over to Fujitora.

Throwing him into the Underwater Great Prison wouldn't make any difference to him anyway.
