"Slash..." With a piercing sound, Doflamingo's eyes widened as he stared at the scene before him in shock—his massive body had been cleaved cleanly in two! Blood sprayed everywhere, making for an exceptionally gruesome sight.
Yet Moke, standing nearby, wore a baffled expression.
At that moment, he had been brimming with confidence, convinced that he could defeat Doflamingo—perhaps even completely overpower him... Yet he had never expected the battle to end so easily!

That made its terrifying destructive power easy to imagine... Even someone
