[Law's intense hatred for Doflamingo had reached its peak!]
[However, in the face of Law's taunts, Doflamingo remained indifferent.]
["Even if I were to kill him, it's because he betrayed me, and he deserves to die!"]
[Upon hearing this, Law could no longer bear it. He forced himself to endure the pain and stood up resolutely!]
[Grasping the sword tightly in his hand, he lunged at Doflamingo!]
[In an instant, Law had already closed in on Doflamingo!]
[A long sword pointed directly at his head!]
[Yet, in the face of Law's blade, Doflamingo casually opened his five fingers, effortlessly blocking it…]
[Law's sword hovered in mid-air, unable to advance the slightest, as if frozen in time!]
[However, upon closer inspection, it became apparent…]
[Doflamingo had several transparent threads in his hands, deceptively delicate yet possessing unimaginable toughness!]
["After all these years, it seems like you've grown..."
["Unfortunately, I had hoped to groom you as my successor!"]
["But you betrayed me, just like Corazon. You deserve to die!"]
[Doflamingo grinned maliciously, gazing at Law and speaking slowly.]
[Law's anger intensified, "Corazon is different from you. He was righteous, but you embrace evil!"]
[Following this, Law leaped away once again, flipping the long sword and stabbing at a tricky angle!]
[This furious strike even severed Doflamingo's threads!]
[Yet, Doflamingo remained unruffled. His hands flicked again, and the threads reappeared...]
[This time, unlike the previous transparent threads, they were vibrant and colorful!]
[Evidently, their toughness and sharpness were even more formidable!]
[Not only did they block Law's sword, but they also instantly grazed his body!]
[Doflamingo continued to look at Law, speaking with a sinister smile:]
["What is integrity? What is evil?"]
["As my younger brother, as a Celestial Dragon, he actually joined the Marine!]
[He deserves to die!!!"]
[As he said this, visible rage contorted Doflamingo's face!]
[Clearly, he had always harbored concerns about Corazon defecting to the Marine and betraying him!]
["He's been with the Marine from the start, and you believe you're part of the evil!"]
["Corazon guided me to the righteous path, and now, I will avenge him!"]
["I'll kill you with my own hands!"]
[Upon hearing this, Doflamingo chuckled angrily, "Then let me see if you have the qualifications!"]
[Law swiftly retrieved the sword, activating his ability with unparalleled speed!]
[His intention was clear—he aimed to seize Doflamingo's heart and crush it mercilessly!]
[However, it was evident that Doflamingo had long anticipated his move…]
[Before Law's hand could reach its target, it was seized by Doflamingo!]
[The immense force immobilized Law's arm completely!]
[In the blink of an eye…]
[Swift lines sliced through the air!]
[Law's arm responded to the sound, soaring through the air before landing on the ground, a spray of blood accompanying its fall…]
["Ah!!!"]
[Law collapsed to the ground, emitting a scream of agony.]
This unexpected turn of events shocked everyone. Law had actually lost his arm? Does this imply that he has now become ineffective in combat?
No one foresaw such a severe blow at the outset of the battle. Doflamingo's moves were unexpectedly sharp—how would Luffy and the others manage to overcome this? Meanwhile...
At Marine Headquarters!
Sengoku, standing staunchly beside Garp on the strongest front, fell into profound silence. A faint teardrop welled in his eye.
"Is this the child you sacrificed your life to save?"
"Corazon…"
Indeed, the outsider world remains unaware.
Corazon, the younger brother of Doflamingo... and also the relationship that runs deep. What everyone knows is that Corazon is a Marine undercover agent. However, the world is oblivious to the fact that he holds another layer of identity—Marshal of the Marine, Sengoku's son!
To be precise, Adopted Son!
Despite being Doflamingo's own brother, their personalities greatly differ. Doflamingo has exhibited inhuman cruelty since childhood, harboring deep hatred for everything. On the contrary, Corazon bears kindness in his heart...
Disapproving of his brother's actions, Corazon fled at a tender age. Later, he encountered Sengoku, who, in turn, adopted him as his son. Their relationship was impeccable, transcending that of father and son!
However, in a bid to halt his brother's nefarious deeds, Corazon volunteered to go undercover.
Henceforth, all information about the Doflamingo family was supplied to the Marine by him...
Until eventually, in an attempt to save Law, he unhesitatingly stole the Ope-Ope no Mi, exposed his identity, and met his demise at the hands of his own brother, Doflamingo!
Countless times Sengoku has regretted his decision to allow Corazon to return to Doflamingo. Had he intervened, would this tragedy have been averted?
Though his hatred for Doflamingo was fueled by the death of his son, he, as a Marine Marshal, was obligated to uphold his duties. This internal conflict remained an enduring source of anguish for Sengoku! He wished for Luffy and Law to defeat Doflamingo independently. In doing so, it would serve as revenge for Corazon...
"Corazon, the child you saved with your life has grown admirably!"
"He inherits your spirit, and I believe..."
"He will surely triumph and avenge you!"
[Having severed one of Law's arms, Doflamingo advanced slowly.]
[He drew a gun from his waist and aimed it at Law's head...]
["This gun is the very one that killed Corazon!"]
["If you miss him so much, I'll send you to meet him!"]
[At that moment, despair filled Law's face.]
[Bound by Doflamingo's lines, he couldn't break free at all.]
[Is this how he will meet his end?]
[Doflamingo, is defeating him really this challenging?]
[In Law's heart, a thick unwillingness surged.]
[I haven't avenged Corazon yet; how can I die so easily?]
[Yet, the current situation seemed inevitable...]
[Doflamingo grinned maliciously and slowly pulled the trigger!]
Marine Headquarters!
Sengoku's heart tightened.
Impossible...
He refused to believe that Law would meet such an easy demise!
This child, saved by his righteous son at the cost of his life.
How could he die in vain?
Meanwhile, Doflamingo, witnessing the scene, wore a sinister smile, reminiscent of the one in the picture.
"Law... after all these years."
"You're finally going to die by my hands!"
"When you die, the fruits of our operation will return to the sea."
"Though finding it again may be troublesome, it's better than being under your possession, unable to use it."
Meanwhile, in an unknown sea!
Law, wearing a spotted hat, gazed at the sky, brows furrowed.
"Doflamingo..."
"His strength remains as formidable as ever!"
"Damn, is this truly the end of it..."
He wasn't afraid of death, but he feared dying before avenging Corazon, the most significant person in his life.
Corazon not only saved him but also guided him onto the right path—a person influencing his whole lifetime!
Hence, he must personally kill Doflamingo to avenge him!
[The screen continues to play...]
[As Doflamingo was about to pull the trigger!]
[A massive hole suddenly tore open in the ground!]
[Luffy's enormous Gear Three fist pierced through everything!]
[Forcing Doflamingo to retreat...]
[This not only temporarily saved Law but also allowed him to break free from the binding lines...]
[The reason for all this wasn't Luffy's strategic timing.]
[It was entirely coincidental!]
[Luffy had been battling Doflamingo's doppelganger, crafted from lines, on the lower level.]
[Though the avatar lacked 100% of Doflamingo's strength, it was still formidable!]
[Luffy, irritated, activated Gear Third and delivered a colossal fist!]
[Not only did it obliterate Doflamingo's doppelganger, but it also punctured a hole to the next layer...]
[Confused, it saved Law's life...]
[Doflamingo stood there, stunned...]
[Law seized this opportunity, charging towards Doflamingo at lightning speed!]
[He stepped on Doflamingo's foot to prevent escape...]
[In his other hand, he held the long sword backward!]
[Displaying his ability, he unleashed his greatest strength towards Doflamingo's chest!]
[Doflamingo, unprepared, had no defense...]
[In this moment, his biggest flaw was exposed!]
"It's over, Doflamingo!!!"
[Law's anger erupted completely at this moment!]
[All the power condensed into a stabbing motion...]
"It worked!?"
As countless viewers witnessed this scene, their eyes lit up!
Will it all conclude here?
Will Doflamingo be utterly defeated?
