What Will You Do?

"I told you, the Straw Hat Pirates are much more Lihai than you think," Law said. "So it's not surprising that you were defeated by them."

Upon hearing this, Doflamingo gradually composed himself. How could this bastard still be saying such things at this hour?

What, you don't believe me?

Luo said expressionlessly, "Now you've lost Caesar, your trump card."

"And during this time of fighting me... you will also lose the SMILE Factory, your trump card!"

"Once you've lost everything, that's the end for you."

He didn't know if he could kill Doflamingo in a fight, but he should be able to buy the Straw Hat Crew an hour or two.

That's more than enough time for them to destroy the Factory!

So... this time, he's definitely going to win!

Doflamingo naturally understood what Law meant, but he had absolute confidence in his own strength and didn't believe Law could stall for too long.

Moreover... the Donquixote Family's trump card was still at the Factory, so he wasn't particularly worried that the Straw Hat Crew would succeed.

And now what he needs to do is take down Luo!

Thinking this, Doflamingo said, "None of what you say will come true, Law!"

"And... do you realize that what you're doing is repaying kindness with enmity?"

"Don't forget you spent some time in the family!"

Back then, they really considered this little bastard one of their own!

You're wrong!

Luo's eyes widened, and he said, "There's only one person who has ever been kind to me."

"The reason I'm still alive is simply to fulfill that man's long-cherished wish, nothing more!"

"ROOM!!!"

Without further ado, Law activated his Devil Fruit power, creating an enormous Ability Circle.

Then, without hesitation, he unleashed a slash!

"Puff!"

The terrifying power slash flew towards Doflamingo at an invisible speed, severing both iron railings in the blink of an eye!

And those Fighting Fish that jumped up around it, oblivious to their own mortality, were all sliced in half in that instant!

"Fufufufufu!"

Using his Observation Haki to detect Law's attack trajectory, Doflamingo didn't hesitate to wrap his own Silk Thread with Haki and then fiercely struck at the wave in front of him, forcibly blocking Law's attack.

"Clang!"

"Boom!!"

The next moment, the aftershock struck the Fighting Fish that had been cut in half in mid-air, slicing them into pieces!

Luo, who witnessed all of this, did not show any surprise, after all, he knew that his abilities could be defended against by Haki.

He then rushed towards Doflamingo, intending to finish Doflamingo off with a more powerful attack at close range.

Doflamingo, sensing Law's intentions, sneered and simultaneously launched an attack on Law using his fingers.

"Whoosh~"

Numerous transparent Silk Thread fell from mid-air, following Luo's trajectory, heading straight for his head.

If he hadn't been able to detect the attack, Luo would have died instantly from that blow!

Unfortunately, Law had already begun using his Ability Circle and Observation Haki to sense everything happening around him when the battle started, so he activated his ability to teleport himself to another location the moment the attack was about to strike.

"Whoosh~"

Almost instantly, Law appeared behind Doflamingo and then slashed at him with his long sword.

He was confident he could cut Doflamingo in two as long as he hit a spot where there was no Haki!

Once he does that, the scales of victory will tip in his favor!

However, Doflamingo's Observation Haki keenly detected Law's position, and he dodged Law's slash by leaping to the side.

He then used the power of the String-String Fruit to quickly adjust his position, positioning himself to face Law.

After doing all this, Doflamingo launched an attack on Law without hesitation.

"Five-Color Strings!"

Upon noticing Doflamingo's attack, Law quickly imbued his weapon with Haki, then raised his longsword to meet the attack head-on.

"Clang!"

"Boom!!"

The terrifying shockwave destroyed the Long Bridge!

Upon seeing this, Jiao La was so frightened that he jumped up and quickened his pace as he rushed away.

This time, she's going to escape all the way to Dressrosa!

"ROOM!"

Knowing that standing at the broken edge would mean falling into the sea, Law did not hesitate at all and immediately activated his Devil Fruit ability, sending himself from the broken edge to a perfectly intact bridge in the distance.

Upon seeing this, Doflamingo once again used his ability to entangle himself with the clouds in the sky, thus gaining the ability to fly.

He then quickly rushed towards Luo in the distance, simultaneously Teuchi several Silk Thread slashes.

"Puff!"

"Boom!!"

In the blink of an eye, the bridge behind Law was as easy as tofu, and was shattered by Doflamingo's slash!

"What's wrong, Luo!"

Watching Law scurry around like Nezumi, Doflamingo sneered loudly, "Weren't you going to kill me?"

What does it mean to keep running around like this?

"Fufufufufu!"

You can't kill him by running away!

Unfortunately, Law didn't answer the question. Instead, he activated his Devil Fruit ability, creating an Ability Circle around the two of them.

Realizing this, Doflamingo immediately stopped his forward momentum and positioned himself on the Silk Thread to avoid being put in a passive situation.

However, Law seized the opportunity when he stopped in place and decisively used his Devil Fruit power to grab an enormous iron pillar!

"Tact!"

"Whoosh~"

The next moment, that enormous thing flew from behind Doflamingo, heading straight for his back!

"This thing is useless to me!" Doflamingo sneered.

As he spoke, he activated his Devil Fruit ability and unleashed a Silk Thread wrapped in Haki, easily slicing the enormous iron pillar in two.

Doflamingo then planned to mock Law again, but before he could speak, he noticed that behind the iron pillar that was blocking his view, a large number of smaller iron pillars had appeared.

"Die, Doflamingo!"

"Clang!"

"Boom!"

An astonishing number of iron pillars slammed into the area where Doflamingo was located!

"I told you!"

Doflamingo, who was using his Haki to protect himself by wrapping his coat, shouted, "This thing is useless against me!"

"Clang!"

"Puff!"

The next moment, several Silk Thread flew out from Doflamingo's hands, easily shredding all the objects blocking his way!

"Fufufufufu~"

"Luo, it's not realistic to think you can kill me with this."

As he spoke, Doflamingo was subtly fidgeting with his fingers, clearly preparing for Law's next attack.

It's fair to say that Doflamingo really mastered the art of manipulating the String-String Fruit.

"ROOM!"

Shambles!

"Whoosh~"

Law appeared instantly behind Doflamingo and slashed fiercely at his back.

Noticing this, Doflamingo turned around with a cold laugh and launched the attack he had just prepared.

"Five-Color Strings!"

"Clang!"

"Luo, you..."

Before Doflamingo could finish speaking, Law swiftly reached out his hand, aiming straight for Doflamingo's heart.

"Scalpel!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Although he didn't know what Law was planning to do, considering the special nature of Law's Devil Fruit, Doflamingo didn't choose to take the attack head-on. Instead, he dodged Law's hand by tilting his head to the side.

Then, using the power of the String-String Fruit, he adjusted his position and kicked Law hard in the chin.

"Bump!"

The kick landed solidly, sending Law, who hadn't used his Haki to protect his chin, flying through the air and causing him to feel dizzy for a moment.

However, Luo quickly recovered and then noticed the sea behind him.

To avoid falling into the sea, he once again used the power of his Devil Fruit to teleport himself to a distant broken bridge.

The moment he landed, Law withdrew his power.

Law now knows he can't kill Doflamingo quickly, so he can't keep releasing his Ability Circle, otherwise his stamina will run out first.

"Fufufufufu~"

"Looks like Luo is really exhausted."

Upon noticing this, Doflamingo immediately grinned.

As Devil Fruit User, he naturally knew that releasing his power required stamina, so... he judged that Law's stamina was probably running low!

That's right. First, he was chased by him and Fujitora all the way, and then he fought a fierce battle with him.

Under these circumstances, it's perfectly normal for this kid to be this exhausted.

Fufufufufu~

It seems he'll be able to take down this kid quickly this time.

Doflamingo then charged towards Law, shouting, "Kid, you're dead this time!"

Although he really wanted Law to use the Perennial Youth Operation to grant him eternal life, it was clear that Law would never listen to him, so... he might as well kill him and then go find the next suitable Devil Fruit User!

With that in mind, Doflamingo increased his speed again.

Sensing Doflamingo's pure killing intent, Law gritted his teeth and unleashed his Devil Fruit power once more.

"ROOM!"

This time, however, he couldn't unleash his Ability Circle as freely as before. This change confirmed Law's condition for Doflamingo; the guy really didn't have much stamina left!

"Damn it, come out here!"

Luo let out a low growl and strained to unleash his Ability Circle.

Then, without hesitation, he slashed at a huge iron pillar in front of him.

Shambles!

"Clang!"

"Varied...?!"

Looking at Doflamingo, who had been instantly teleported by him but was still able to block his attack, a look of surprise appeared in Law's eyes.

In this situation, how could this guy possibly withstand his own attack?

Is this Doflamingo's true strength?

Hateful...

"The power of the Op-Op Fruit is truly bizarre and unpredictable," Doflamingo grinned. "It can even teleport me."

"However... your abilities must be limited, right? If you run out of stamina, you won't be able to continue releasing your Ability Circle, right?"

After finishing his sentence, Doflamingo paused for a moment, then continued, "First you blocked Fujitora's meteor, then you were chased down by the two of us, then you used your abilities several times to save Black Leg, and now you've fought me..."

"Now, how long can you hold out?"

Towards the end, Doflamingo's tone became extremely sarcastic, as if he didn't take Law seriously at all.

Then, without giving Luo a chance to speak, he kicked Luo in the chin, sending him flying backward and sliding quite a distance before coming to a stop.

At this moment, Law's Ability Circle also shrank, clearly indicating that he was struggling to maintain his strength.

"Hateful..."

Law gritted his teeth. If he had known the situation would be this complicated, he would have asked the Straw Hat Leader for more people. That way, he could at least conserve more energy and have a greater chance of killing Doflamingo.

But now...

No, now is not the time to think about such things. After all, Doflamingo won't give him another chance, so... let's focus on fighting desperately.

"Looks like you've run out of tricks." Doflamingo raised a finger and said, "In that case... let me send you on your way!"

"Bullet String!"

"Bump!"

"Bump!"

"Bump!"

The next moment, several Thread Ball flew out of Doflamingo's hand, heading towards Law like bullets.

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

In the blink of an eye, the Bullet String struck Luo, sending him flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground behind him.

The Bullet String remained in Luo's wound, causing him immense pain.

"Fufufufufu~"

Doflamingo was very satisfied with his masterpiece. It seemed that Law really couldn't use his ability anymore, otherwise he would definitely have used it to dodge his attack.

Thinking of this, Doflamingo laughed even more heartily.

Then, he walked towards Luo step by step, laughing as he went, exuding a strong sense of pressure.

Seeing this, Law gritted his teeth and tried to unleash his power again, but this time he was unable to release the Ability Circle at all.

"Hateful..."

"Fufufufufu~"

"Luo," Doflamingo sneered, "What are you going to do now?"

"Dressrosa is right in front of us."

"If we try hard enough, we might be able to escape and reunite with the Straw Hat!"

"Fufufufufu~"

"Fufufufufu!!!"

At this moment, Doflamingo burst into uncontrollable laughter.

But to Luo, this appearance was a blatant mockery of him, and he was powerless to do anything about it.

After all... in his current state, he really can't freely unleash his Ability Circle as before.

'Hateful!'

I was hoping he could stall for an hour or two, which would give the Straw Hat time to destroy the Factory.

But once they started fighting, they realized... he simply couldn't do it!

What to do?!!
