“Fufufufu! My dear brother, where is the Op-Op Fruit??”
Doflamingo looked at Corazon, his face devoid of any emotion, his entire being exuding an extreme killing intent.
Actually, ‘Corazon’ was just a codename for the Heart seat. The original Corazon was Vergo—the undercover Marine agent who held that title first.
The real name of the second Corazon was Donquixote Rosinante. He only inherited the Corazon title after Vergo left to go undercover in the Marines.
At this moment, Corazon was severely injured. It was Vergo who did it—almost killing Corazon in an instant.
“No need to pretend. I know you can speak.” Doflamingo, seeing the silent Corazon, directly exposed him.
Corazon’s face was made up like a clown, but this time he didn’t continue to play dumb—nor did he continue to pretend to be mute.
————
“The Op-Op Fruit is not with me. When I arrived, Diez Barrels was already dead.”
“Fufufufu! Still not ready to be honest with me, dear brother? How about now—feeling more talkative?” Doflamingo pulled out a gun and aimed it at the young Law.
Yes, Law had been captured too. Both of them had been desperately searching for the Op-Op Fruit when Vergo found them. Corazon was defeated instantly, and Law—who had no real fighting ability at the time—naturally couldn’t get away.
“LET HIM GO! HE’S INNOCENT!” Corazon was somewhat angry.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!
A gunshot rang out. Law’s abdomen was pierced, his entire body twisting in pain on the ground.
“I’M TELLING THE TRUTH! I DIDN’T GET THE OP-OP FRUIT! THEY WERE ALREADY DEAD BEFORE I ARRIVED!” Corazon gritted his teeth.
“He’s probably telling the truth. Everyone except Diez Barrels was turned to stone.” Vergo said to Doflamingo.
Corazon didn’t have that kind of power—so it definitely wasn’t him. Someone else had gotten here first and taken the Devil Fruit.
“Then do you know whose ability this is?” Doflamingo looked at Vergo. Though he could maintain a calm expression on the surface, his heart was filled with insane anger.
“I know. But it’s not someone we can deal with… The Vice-Captain of the Kuja Pirates—Boa Hancock.”
Vergo said to Doflamingo.
A Yonko… that was a monster they couldn’t afford to cross. Even with all the Donquixote Family’s power, they were still leagues below a Yonko.
————
“Fufufufu! My things—are not so easy to take.” Doflamingo’s face was sinister.
“Oh?? Then I’d really like to know, what can you do if I take your things?” Shin and Hancock appeared behind Doflamingo, startling him.
Turning around, this was Doflamingo’s first time laying eyes on Shin—one of the legendary Yonko, the World’s Strongest Man who had taken down Whitebeard.
“Oh no…”
Vergo felt the situation was very bad. He looked at Doflamingo, hoping in his heart that Doflamingo wouldn’t start a conflict.
Doflamingo’s expression turned grim. The value of the Op-Op Fruit was obvious—this was a Devil Fruit capable of granting immortality. The rumors had to be true.
“Captain Shin, you’ve got the Op-Op Fruit. Name your price—”
Doflamingo’s eyes gleamed as he spoke. If he were dealing with some weakling, he’d just take it by force. But going up against Shin Uzumaki, the strongest Yonko? Did he have the balls to try??
No…
Even Doflamingo didn’t have that courage.
“Buy it? And how much are you planning to offer?” Shin looked at Doflamingo with a playful smile.
“I don’t have the Berries on me right now. But I can offer 10 billion Berries for the Op-Op Fruit.”
Doflamingo said crazily.
10 billion Berries was a massive sum—even for the Donquixote Family. But to Doflamingo, it was nothing compared to the value of eternal life.
————
“Hahahaha! Are you kidding me?” Shin laughed out loud.
“A Devil Fruit that can grant eternal life is worth more than just 10 billion Berries.”
Doflamingo’s heart sank.
So Shin Uzumaki knows this secret… If he knew, then there was no way to get the Op-Op Fruit back from him.
“Looks like the deal’s off—guess we’ll be heading out.”
Doflamingo gestured to Vergo.
Then Doflamingo turned and left. After walking out ten meters, he suddenly waved his hand, and invisible strings shot towards Shin.
Doflamingo was a String-String Fruit user. He could create extremely sharp strings. The sharpness of these strings was no less than a Great Grade Sword.
“I was right about you, Doflamingo.”
Doflamingo’s sudden attack didn’t catch Shin off guard—he expected it.
“But you clearly have no idea how wide the gap between us really is. I’ll make sure you learn the hard way.”
Shin grabbed the strings Doflamingo had created and looked at Doflamingo calmly.
“<Finger Pistol!>”
Vergo suddenly attacked, his finger covered in Armament Haki—and the strength of his entire body was concentrated on a small finger.
Even steel could be pierced. Vergo’s move was not weak.
————
“You must have a death wish.”
Hancock drew Ame no Habakiri and slashed at Vergo. The sword light flashed instantly—and a finger was cut off.
Cold sweat dripped from Vergo’s forehead. A finger was cut off by Hancock, but Vergo was tough enough not to make a sound.
“HMPH! I AM THE VICE-CAPTAIN OF THE KUJA PIRATES.” Hancock held her head high with pride.
Doflamingo’s expression turned grim. Right now, he hadn’t reached the peak of his Devil Fruit awakening like he would in the future. At best, he was just slightly stronger than a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral—barely above Vergo’s level.
“Law, let’s go!” Corazon, seeing this good opportunity, immediately grabbed Law and ran quickly into the distance.
“Traitors! None of you will escape!” Doflamingo looked at the fleeing Corazon and Law, a cold light flashing in his face.
Doflamingo absolutely would not allow Corazon to escape in front of him.
“<Overheat!>”
Dozens of transparent strings shot out from his hand, then condensed into one. With a wave of Doflamingo’s hand, it slashed down. Just like a huge whip, but this attack power was quite terrifying. Even a huge tall building could be easily cut in two.
The fleeing Corazon and Law still couldn’t escape Doflamingo’s attack speed. They were cut in half by Doflamingo.
