It Has Begun!

"Everyone who knows about that fruit, everyone who knows about the Sun God Nika, must die! I cannot die, I absolutely cannot!"

"Red-Haired Shanks! Red-Haired Shanks! I want revenge, I must have revenge!"

With a burning desire for life in his eyes, Foz looked around, searching for any glimmer of hope that might lead to survival.

"Calm down, I must calm down. Think carefully about how I can get out of prison. I must escape!"

Meanwhile, on the sixth level of the Impel Down, the Infinite Hell.

"Fufufufu... What a rare guest! The supreme leader of the Celestial Dragons, the Five Elders who govern the existence of all Celestial Dragons, has actually come to the Impel Down in person to see a mere sea rogue like me. It is truly an honor."

"Enough with the nonsense, Donquixote Doflamingo. You wouldn't dare deceive us. This will be your last chance to leave Impel Down alive."

"You say you can confirm Uchiha Huayue's location, is that true or false?"

Jaigolusia Satan sat across the cage, staring coldly at the former Celestial Dragons had been banished from Mariejois and reduced to a lowly ant.

"How dare I deceive the ruler of this world, the being who holds all the power of the Celestial Dragons, one of the Five Elders, the Godhead of Science and Defense, Lord Jeigolsia Satan, Fufufufu..."

The laughter gradually subsided, Doflamingo composed himself, revealing a situation to the Five Elders that left them with subtle expressions.

"The Four Emperors, Uchiha Huayue, took one... or perhaps two members of the Donquixote Family with him before leaving Minion Island."

"In other words, I am very likely to know his current location, which is exactly the means you need right now."

After a moment's thought, Jaygolucia Satan Saint nodded slightly.

"Very good. From now on, the Science Defense Department will officially implant monitoring equipment in your body. Once Uchiha Huayue is detected World Government will be notified immediately..."

"Now, your ant subordinates are free, but remember this: if you fail again, you will really have to spend the rest of your lives in the Impel Down. Don't tell anyone that secret, or you know what will happen to you."

The Five Elders disappeared into Impel Down, and one by one, the jailers entered the cells and removed the shackles binding Doflamingo.

"As instructed by Lord Jaigolusia Satan, the ship prepared for you will be sent to the North Blue via the World Government's dedicated shipping route."

With a chuckle, Doflamingo glanced around, then smiled and walked out of Impel Down.

Behind the Donquixote Family executives, who were tortured beyond recognition, a furtive man followed Trebol, his eyes burning with Kuma.

"Fufufufu... Trebol, take note, Trafalgar Law has officially become the third Corazon of our Donquixote Family. Take this opportunity to enter the Grand Line, Donquixote Family."

In the New World, within the Calm Belt, on a small island near the Amazon Lily.

ROMM: Slaughterhouse!

Inside the operating room, towering trees, each requiring three people to encircle, flew up and, under Luo's direction, spread rapidly as if by magic.

In the distance, Uchiha Huayue watched this scene with great interest, even he was amazed by the full range of abilities of the Ope Ope no Mi.

Teleportation, healing injuries, penetrating attacks, free cutting, soul/personality swapping—a comprehensive range of abilities beyond compare.

Considering all the Devil Fruit abilities he has acquired so far, the Ope Ope no Mi is in a class of its own among Paramecia Type and Zoan types. Its only drawbacks are the speed at which his stamina is depleted and the total amount of Haki he can generate.

"Keep going, keep going. Your current physical strength is simply not enough to support a battle with a strong opponent. You can only last for 10 ROOMs. At this level, you don't even have the qualifications to fight me head-on."

Trafalgar Law, laden with heavy loads and engaged in monotonous physical training around this remote Spring Island, glared fiercely to the side.

"That damn bastard! He goes off to the Amazon Lily to have fun every now and then, and then comes back with extra weight. What a bastard..."

"Hey, hey, hey, is it really okay to talk about your teacher like that? Well then, I'll tell you some news: Donquixote Doflamingo has been released from Impel Down!"

"Now, you've probably already embarked on your journey to the Grand Line with your 'family,' which means you're getting closer and closer to your destination, hehehe."

Upon hearing this, Luo's eyes turned fierce, and he brandished his famous sword menacingly, Kikoku.

"Since the Navy can't avenge Corazon-san, then I will. I will never allow the bastard who killed Corazon-san to live freely in this world!"

The fire of hatred in his eyes could not be extinguished by the stars and the world. Law stopped complaining and instead began to train his physical strength almost to the point of self-destruction. He deeply understood that Haki and ability were the strongest weapons he could use to take revenge on Doflamingo.

At this moment, Huayue smiled and activated her almost limitless Observation Haki once again, taking in all possible future possibilities.

Just then, amidst countless possible destinies, an unprecedented storm was brewing.

"It's starting now, East Blue, Foosha Village... I'm leaving for a while, don't slack off, kid."

"Who would slack off?!"

Luo roared on the spot, but Uchiha Huayue's figure disappeared from the spot.

East Blue, Foosha Village.

"What?! You stingy Shanks, I want to be a pirate too!"

"Tch, how could a brat like you become a pirate, you idiot..."

Uta, who hadn't smiled for a long time, ran out with a grin. Shanks, who witnessed this, nodded slightly. Children really do need to play with their peers to laugh!

"You're the idiot! Uta, and you too, you idiot Shanks!"

"Haha, don't be angry, have a glass of orange juice."

Luffy, pouting, took the orange juice and drank it all in one gulp, while Shanks immediately slammed his fist on the table and burst into laughter.

"He's just a kid! Hahahaha..."

At this moment, the pirates in the tavern burst into laughter, and Luffy, his face full of anger, angrily opened the treasure chest next to him, picked up the fruit inside, and ate it.

In mid-air, Uchiha Huayue took out the Orochimaru had given him and stared at its hands.

"Now is the moment, the extreme point of the tide of fate, the moment when the black hole unfolds!"

At the edge of the sky, no one could notice the fluctuations of the tide of fate, and no member of the pirate world noticed the gradually forming vortex of destiny.

"It's here, it's here! A familiar aura, the aura of the Ninja World. Nearly ten years have passed, and we've finally connected with the world. How slow!"

Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky. Under Huayue's expectant gaze, an extremely familiar golden-haired figure descended from the sky, with the azure branches and leaves accompanying her standing out conspicuously.
