Each to Their Own, Striking from Multiple Points

The Donquixote Family and Luo Wen's side are locked in a standoff, each with their own adversaries.

The highest-ranking officer of the Spade Army Pica, faces off against Gion.

Diamante, the highest-ranking officer of the Diamond Army, faces off against Moria.

The top leader of the Club Army Trebol, faced off against Boa Hancock.

Tashigi, Kalifa, Vivi, Uta, and the other women then took on Baby5, Rao G, and Onicel, among other executives.

As for Nami, Robin, and Nojiko, they were responsible for guarding Monet, Sugar, and the other prisoners.

The 2,000-strong navy and Moria's Zombie Army, which they had subdued, clashed with the Donquixote Family's henchmen.

The intensity of this duel is completely a case of one side defeating the other.

At the same time, both sides unanimously left a large open space for Doflamingo and Luo Wen.

Doflamingo and Luo Wen stood facing each other, the atmosphere heavy and tense.

"Then, please."

Luo Wen looked at Doflamingo, his voice calm and indifferent, yet tinged with a hint of contempt.

He held the Shusui in one hand, looking relaxed and carefree.

Doflamingo's strength was not worthy of his intervention; Gion could have easily dealt with him.

However, in order to show off in front of the newly recruited Marines, Luo Wen decided to deal with Doflamingo himself.

"Fufufu, do you look down on me that much?!"

Doflamingo's face darkened, furious at Luo Wen's disdain.

He's Shichibukai, Doflamingo!

Even Kaido has to make a deal with him.

Why are you acting like this, Luo Wen?!

Doflamingo wanted to make a move immediately, but he was hesitant to act rashly.

Luo Wen just stood there, and he felt a terrifying sense of awe and helplessness, as if he were looking up at a towering mountain and had nowhere to begin.

Flaws everywhere, abyss everywhere.

If one acts rashly, the consequences will be dire.

"What a monstrous powerhouse!"

The more he looked, the more terrifying it seemed. Doflamingo gritted his teeth, feeling the pressure mounting even more.

He had to make a move; otherwise, he would lose all courage to even lay a hand on Luo Wen.

First, use Conqueror's Haki to bolster your courage!

A deep, heavy, purplish-black Haki erupted, dispelling Doflamingo's fear and igniting his fighting spirit.

"Luo Wen, I'll make you pay!"

Doflamingo roared and unleashed his ultimate trump card.

The surrounding environment changed instantly; the land and houses turned into endless white lines.

String-String Fruit - Awakening!

The Devil Fruit Awakening of Paramecia Fruit allows the user to influence their surroundings, and the strength of the threads is greatly increased.

"Wild Wave White Thread!"

"Umihara Shirami!"

Doflamingo roared,

In an instant.

Sharp white lines surged forth from his body, cutting through everything around him.

Centered on him, the earth churned and lost its original characteristics.

The earth itself became a sea of white lines, the boundless white lines surging like ocean waves, with an incomparably magnificent momentum.

The ground beneath Luo Wen's feet also became a sea of white lines, constantly surging upwards, trying to submerge and crush him.

Stones and trees were pulverized into powder in the white ocean, and the trees themselves turned into wood dust.

Several Donquixote Family henchmen who tried to retreat were also swallowed up by the white sea of lines, leaving no trace of their bodies.

"This is my true strength!"

Doflamingo was in high spirits, and with his Devil Fruit Awakening, he had some confidence in defeating Luo Wen.

This is his strongest state; everything around him is at his disposal.

Since you, Luo Wen, are full of flaws and traps, then I will attack you from all angles and see how you deal with it!

Doflamingo stared intently at Luo Wen, a smug smile on his face.

"How terrifying, String-String Fruit to the point of Awakening."

Kizaru adjusted his yellow glasses and exclaimed in surprise.

Devil Fruit Awakening is no simple matter. And once you actually achieve it, it means you possess world-class abilities.

In the navy, he would absolutely be worthy of being a candidate for Admiral.

This performance is far superior to that of the Supernovas.

The current Doflamingo could easily tell any of the Supernovas, "I'll take on ten of them!"

However, he is far inferior to Luo Wen.

Kizaru recalled Luo Wen's monstrous performance during the Sabaody battle and offered his condolences to Doflamingo.

"Even three of us couldn't beat him, but you dared to take him on all by yourself. You're really brave!"

Kizaru looked at Doflamingo, a mocking smile spreading across his lewd face.

While enjoying the spectacle, Kizaru adjusted the position of the Visual Transponder Snail so that the Five Elders and Sengoku could see it more clearly.

"Doflamingo has considerable talent; if he hadn't left the Holy Land, he would have had the potential to join the God's Knights."

"That's a bit of a pity."

Saint Nusjuro, leaning on the First Generation Kitetsu, commented.

Having Conqueror's Haki and being able to Awakening the String-String Fruit has already proven Doflamingo's abilities.

However, the String-String Fruit's abilities can only be described as first-rate. Even if developed to its full potential, it's still just so-so, far inferior to the top-tier Devil Fruit Ability.

If one stays in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, reaps an even better harvest, and receives systematic training, becoming a God's Knights will be a natural progression.

"There's nothing to regret. The God's Knights don't need another one like him. It's good to use him to see how strong Luo Wen is."

"The abilities he's displaying now are so great that even Admiral would have to put up a fight."

Saint Saturn didn't feel it was a pity.

As descendants of the original twenty kings, the Celestial Dragons possess exceptional potential.

Even if many are simply giving up, the few remaining Celestial Dragons strive for progress represent a force unimaginable to outsiders.

Instead of lamenting Doflamingo's potential, let's see what kind of skills he can get Luo Wen to display.

"That's right, let's see how Luo Wen handles Doflamingo."

The other Five Elders agreed, then stared intently at the screen on the Transponder Snail.

In their eyes, Doflamingo was already doomed to lose, and seeing Luo Wen's methods was Doflamingo's last remaining value.

The Five Elders and Sengoku watched the Visual Transponder Snail intently, not wanting to miss a single detail.

An endless expanse of sharp white lines surrounded Luo Wen, leaving him nowhere to hide, neither in the sky nor on the ground.

"This is getting interesting."

Luo Wen straightened up slightly and began to move.

Dark purple Inazuma leaped across the Shusui, its Conqueror's Haki aura spontaneously manifesting itself.

Luo Wen held the Shusui sword and unleashed a burst of energy like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, its sharp edge spreading in all directions.

"Trying to cut my white lines with your sword? How naive!"

Doflamingo scoffed.

So far, he has not encountered anyone who can sever his normal white lines, let alone the white lines that have been strengthened after the Devil Fruit Awakening.

However, the next moment...

The overwhelming white lines were cut in two, scattering the countless strands of silk.

"How is that possible?!"

Doflamingo was utterly shocked; the sneer he had just given was still lingering on his face, making him look somewhat comical.

The white threads created by the String-String Fruit are harder than steel and cannot be cut by ordinary swords.

After the Devil Fruit Awakening, the intensity of the white lines increases again, and their sharpness and hardness reach a new level.

Based on sheer strength alone, Doflamingo believed that no one could cut the white line, not even with the ultimate technique of Swordmaster's iron-cutting.

It has nothing to do with the amount of force used; it's an absolute difference in the materials used.

The only explanation is that Luo Wen just used other powers.

Doflamingo's pupils contracted sharply as he looked at the Shusui Shusui held by Luo Wen, with its leaping purple-black Inazuma.

"Conqueror's Coating!?"

Doflamingo was startled and cried out in alarm.

He had seen Kaido; the purplish-black Inazuma wrapped around that big black club was exactly the same as Luo Wen's Shusui.

If it's Conqueror's Coating and Luo Wen's swordsmanship, then severing one's own white lines wouldn't be so surprising.

The entanglement of Conqueror's Haki is the most advanced application of Haki on this sea.

Only those who stand at the pinnacle of the world can use it; it is almost exclusively reserved for the Four Emperors.

Even the World Government must be extremely cautious when facing a powerful individual who can use the Conqueror's Coating.

Previously, intelligence regarding Luo Wen did not demonstrate this ability.

Doflamingo looked at Luo Wen, his heart growing heavier.

In this state, Luo Wen didn't even have the ability to take a bite of meat.
