The Straw Hat Pirates Really Are...

After spitting out another mouthful of blood, Doflamingo pressed a hand to his abdomen and used his Devil Fruit power to speed up the healing of his internal injuries.

Then he looked toward the Royal Palace.

"Hmm?"

Faintly, he seemed to hear some strange sound.

And the source of that sound was the direction of the Royal Palace.

"What was that?"

Just as Doflamingo was wondering, Luffy entered his field of vision.

"This is...?!"

Watching Luffy fly rapidly through the air, Doflamingo frowned. "He's actually using elasticity to fly through the air... This guy's development of his Devil Fruit power isn't weak either."

"Tch..."

"Overheat!!"

After clicking his tongue, Doflamingo raised a hand and launched an attack.

"Whoosh~"

"Clang!"

The terrifying Silk Thread struck the rock wall in the blink of an eye, effortlessly slicing off one of its corners!

Unfortunately, the attack missed Luffy, because his speed in the air was just as terrifying.

"He disappeared again..."

Doflamingo's expression darkened after losing sight of Luffy. How was this brat so fast...

Before he could finish that thought, Luffy suddenly appeared at his side and viciously kicked him in the face.

"Gum-Gum Rhino Schneider!"

"Bang!"

The incredibly heavy blow slammed into Doflamingo's face and sent him flying, smashing through several buildings in an instant.

Then he began skidding rapidly across the ground, unable even to get back to his feet.

Only after crashing through countless buildings did he barely come to a stop.

"Hey, that guy sent Doflamingo flying!" Citizens in the distance stared at Luffy in shock. "He's huge."

"But what's with that weird appearance?"

"No idea. Maybe he was born that way."

They did not know what was going on with him, but anyone who could send Doflamingo flying was a good thing!

At that thought, they grinned.
