In the distance, King Riku and his confidantes felt the intensity of the battle from the powerful shockwaves that swept past them earlier.
They don't know what's happening but if it goes on it will affect the residents present on the island.
"What's happening there? This level of battle, I am afraid not even Dressrosa will hold for long!"
"I told you guys before if Blaize-san isn't careful, the entire Island will be destroyed" Regis shrugged with a slight smile on his lips.
Gion shook her head. She could tell Blaize's strength has possibly reached the level of Admirals. The kind of strength that she yearns to achieve.
As for Rosinante, he gazed into the far distance with a complicated expression. Doflamingo is his brother but his heart has sided with evil. There's no return from that.

As dusk descended, the cold breeze swept the Dressrosa. The entire battle ended within half an hour.
Doflamingo lay nearly dead in deep carter with blood flowing from his orifices. The punch crushed him completely while the high temperature from the flames scorched his inners.
If not for him protecting his body with Haki, he would have been vaporized by the blow. Though he was conscious, he can't move a muscle.
He knew he's not dead because the other party didn't plan to kill him.
Blaize didn't care about Doflamingo, as he was busy looking into the system reward. As soon as he defeated Doflamingo, the system notification sounded in his ears.
[~ Defeated Donquixote Pirates
Reward: +1.0 Constitution +1.0 Devil Fruit +1.0 Haki +1.0 Free attribute point. ~]
'The reward is pretty generous for taking down the Heavenly Demon.' Blaize whistled and checked the status panel.
[~ Name: Blaize Hunt
Occupation: Marine
Constitution: 63.1
Devil Fruit: 53.5
Haki: 52.6
Free attribute point: 7.0 ~]
Before this fight, Blaize thought of raising his Devil fruit attribute to '60' but now, he had a change of mind. He couldn't choose between Haki and Devil fruit attribute.
True, his devil fruit abilities are insanely powerful but at the same time, one's Haki is equally important. Unlike devil fruit, Haki is one's own power.
Right now, even if he wants he can't boost his Haki attribute to 60 as he misses another '0.4' points.
Since Blaize also isn't in a hurry to improve his strength immediately. He thought he would decide later and put it in the back of his mind.
He called Gion and went to check Doflamingo. The latter was conscious but he was in no state to move his lips. He left leaving a simple sentence. "We will talk later!"
Blaize then checked the other Donquixote pirates. Aside from Senior Pink, the others were mostly unconscious or heavily injured. As for Senior Pink, he didn't escape using the opportunity as his character is like that.
Within five minutes, Gion, Regis, Rosinante, and other marines came while King Riku and his guards accompanied them.
Noticing the destroyed city, deep carter, and the scorched ground they took a deep breath. They wondered, What kind of battle has taken place here?
Looking at Regis, Blaize commanded. "Regis, cuff them with seastone. Apart from two people, all of them are devil fruit users. And also, be careful!"
"Yes," Regis left with Rosinante and other Marine soldiers.
"Why did you even bring me along with you? You alone finished them all." Gion rebuked in a fake tone.
Blaize smiled and spoke, "Notify the Headquarters we have captured the Donquixote pirates and tell them to send a Battleship."
"Ok"
At that moment, King Riku, Viola, and others came over to thank him. "Thank you, Young Marine. We are deeply grateful for what you have done.
"No problem. It's my Duty." Only then Blaize noticed small creatures, big enough to fit in one's palm, around King Riku. He saw some familiar faces among them.
Next, King Riku hosted a banquet for them. Of course, Blaize didn't refuse since he's starving very much. He also met Kyros, Scarlet, and baby Rebecca during the feast.
After an hour, Blaize and Gion said goodbye to King Riku and came to the port area where Regis and Rosinante kept the Donquixote pirates locked with seastone inside a house.
The first thing he noticed is Rosinante's downcast expression. He went over and asked, "What happened, Rosinante? Had a chat with your brother?"
"Yes,"
Patting his shoulder, Blaize spoke. "It's not your fault that Doflamingo is like that. Unlike you, he thinks of himself as noble, someone above everyone else.
No matter what you do, you can't change it."
"I knew that's why I joined the marine and decided the take him down by myself." Rosinante lighted a cigarette and breathed. "Now, I have no regrets!"
"Good!"
Blaize then went inside the house to have a little chat with Doflamingo himself. Doflamingo was locked in a separate room with a lot of chains and seastone cuffs.
He was still conscious, even with all the injuries. Blaize knew he won't die with the level of injury.
"Fuffuffuffuffu...cough...cough...You are a strange man, aren't ya? I don't get why the man of such caliber joined the marines. Your strong will shows you're someone with ambition."
Blaize praised Doflamingo in his mind for his extreme perception.
"Whatever your ambition is, the World Government won't allow it. Once your power and influence reach a certain stage, they will come for you.
Fuffuffufu, I think the future is going to be interesting!"
"I didn't come here to listen to your speech. I knew you will eventually come out but remember, if you touch Dressrosa again I will come for your head.
I won't show mercy the next time." Saying this, Blaize left the room.
There's a reason why he left Doflamingo alive. He wants to see how his action will affect the future, whether it's good or bad. Maybe, he will once again be defeated by Luffy in the future. Let's wait and see!
After an hour, two Marine Battleships came to transport Doflamingo. Vice-Admiral Tsuru came personally to escort the Heavenly Demon to Impel Down.
As for what happens from now on, Blaize doesn't care. He had done his part!
