Franky fought Senor Pink at the Toy House, while Usopp and the others approached the Underground Trade Port and learned that four powerful Diamante Army executives were reinforcing the area. Perona sent Negative Ghosts to support Franky, but the group continued toward the port without knowing whether her ability would work against enemies who might use Haki.

• Violet found Luffy’s group and offered to guide them toward the Royal Palace, but warned that the elevator could leave them trapped if the Donquixote Family stopped it.
• Violet revealed that she had pretended to serve Doflamingo, and Vika confirmed that Violet had been watching and supporting their efforts.

Luffy and the others entered the Royal Palace to confront Doflamingo, but Luffy’s attack on the Outer Wall Tower gate exposed their infiltration and triggered an alarm. They fought their way inside as Vika left to join the SOP Operation, and Violet led the crew onward, hopeful that Dressrosa could finally be freed after ten years.

Xi Yan, Luffy, Zoro, Violet, and Perona encountered Pica, whose Stone-Stone Fruit let him control the Royal Palace’s stone and hide his real body. Xi Yan and Luffy continued toward Doflamingo while Zoro and Perona stayed to fight Pica, and Perona tried to locate his real body.

• Pica moved his real body to the lowest part of the stone structure to avoid Perona’s search.

• Perona sent Negative Ghosts at Trebol while Leo charged Sugar with the Tabasco Star, but Sugar touched Perona through her clone and turned her into a toy bound by a contract.

• Gladius recognized Violet and threatened to kill her for betraying Doflamingo, but Violet urged Luffy to leave and continue toward the Royal Palace.

Violet led Xi Yan, Luffy, and Kyros toward Doflamingo while Gladius tried to stop them, only to discover Xi Yan’s living wooden dragon resisted his power.
