Chapter 338: New Eye Technique

A gloomy and oppressive curtain of rain shrouded Dressrosa boundlessly.

Cold raindrops formed a water curtain, mercilessly washing over this riddled island.

Tatsuya dragged Katakuri's heavy and tall remains, stopping at a remote edge far from the town's hustle and bustle.

This was a desolate stone forest; besides the howling sea wind and the sound of rain, there was no other noise.

Tatsuya calmly unsheathed Shusui and swung it downward casually.

A sharp, invisible sword qi instantly plunged into the hard rock layer, and with a muffled boom, a neat deep pit was slashed into the earth.

He placed the remains steadily into the deep pit, then with a slight movement of his fingertips, the surrounding rubble and soil rolled down to cover it.

"Let's just make do with this."

Tatsuya patted the dust off his hands, letting the cold rain slide down his cheeks.

Since he was a hero who shook the seas during his lifetime, having a place to rest after death could be considered decent.

After handling all this, Tatsuya stood in the rain, closed his eyes, and completely submerged his consciousness into the depths of his mind.

"Beginning to issue high-level rewards..."

That crisp and emotionless system prompt echoed in the void of his consciousness.

[Ding! Successfully stripped the target's core ability concept: Top-tier Observation Haki · Future Sight]

[Integrating origin with the host's [Mangekyo Sharingan]...]

As the prompt ended, a warm and mysterious surge of massive energy poured frantically into Tatsuya's eyes along the paths of his soul.

This energy contained insights into the flow of time and the prediction of all things' trajectories.

The Mangekyo Sharingan in Tatsuya's eye sockets was strongly stimulated by this "Future Sight" concept, instantly creating a wonderful resonance.

He only felt an indescribable warmth and swelling pain coming from his eyes.

Tatsuya slowly opened his eyes; in the dim curtain of rain, the crimson pupils in his eye sockets emitted a heart-palpitating, eerie glow.

The originally complex and dense Mangekyo pattern began to rotate, deconstruct, and reorganize rapidly.

Finally, it settled into a deeper, brand-new pattern.

The system prompt rang out again at the right time:

[Integration complete! The Mangekyo Sharingan has evolved a new exclusive eye technique — [Omoikane]!]

[Deconstructs the flow of time, allowing for brief time pauses and Future Sight.]

[Warning: Host, please note that this eye technique involves high-dimensional law interference. Depending on the degree of effect, the consumption of stamina and Chakra will increase geometrically.]

[If the degree of interference is too great, it will directly consume the host's life force as a price.]

After listening to the system's detailed explanation, Tatsuya slowly raised his right hand and gently touched his eye socket.

Feeling the terrifying power in his eyes that was enough to overturn common sense, the curve of his lips gradually widened in the rain, revealing a satisfied smile:

"Pausing time and predicting the future... truly a perfect trophy."

With these eyes, he would have an absolute trump card on this treacherous sea.

...

The central plaza of Dressrosa.

The heavy rain was still raging.

In the sky, a pink figure was stepping on invisible thin lines connected to the clouds, traversing at high speed through the storm.

Doflamingo held Law, who had long since lost consciousness, in one hand.

Following the source of the earth-shattering explosion just now, he came straight to the sky above this plaza.

However, when he descended from mid-air and saw the scene before him, his eyes under the sunglasses couldn't help but narrow slightly.

What entered his sight? Where was there any trace of the central plaza?

The ground ahead looked as if it had been hit head-on by a super meteorite falling from the sky, leaving a bottomless, massive crater.

All the sturdy buildings around had been completely leveled in the aftermath of that terrifying collision, turned into charred powder all over the ground.

In the air, there were even a few wisps of eerie black flames that even the rainstorm couldn't extinguish, along with a burnt smell.

Other than that, there was nothing in these ruins.

That fierce battle had clearly ended.

Doflamingo stood at the edge of the crater, letting the rain soak his flamboyant pink feather coat.

Through his red sunglasses, he scanned the world-destroying range of destruction in the rain with a grave expression, his brow furrowed tightly.

To be able to destroy a sturdy urban area into such a miserable state in this short time, affecting such a large range, was absolutely impossible for the top executives under his command to achieve.

Diamante was dead, and the strength of Trebol and Pica could not reach such a horrifying level.

So, it seemed only one truth remained.

A deduction he considered most reasonable quickly flashed through Doflamingo's mind:

The one who could cause this level of destruction must be a top-tier monster sent by the Four Emperors Big Mom as support!

And looking at the intensity of this battle, Big Mom's reinforcements must have already engaged in a head-on death match with the Straw Hat Pirates.

"It seems the battle has been decided."

Having figured out this "point," Doflamingo's furrowed brow instantly smoothed out.

He tilted his head back, and a haughty smile immediately curled his lips.

"Fuffuffuffuffu! You've arrived just in time, monsters of the Charlotte Family."

Standing in the rain, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Since this powerful "ally" had already acted for him and cleanly swept away the Straw Hat crew, the biggest obstacle.

Then the current situation for him, the underground king, was simply perfect to the extreme.

Without wasting a single soldier of his own family, he had used a borrowed knife to solve his heart's trouble.

Doflamingo looked down, his gaze falling on Law, who had only a faint breath left in his hand.

He stuck out his tongue and licked the rainwater from the corner of his mouth, his lips curling cruelly:

"The stage is set."

"Since you want to see me fall from my throne so badly, I'll show some mercy and let you die more spectacularly, Law."

A perfect overt plot took shape in his heart.

He would tie Law, the traitor of the family, to the highest point of the palace and execute him personally in front of all the subjects of the nation.

He knew well the hopelessly stupid sense of companionship the Straw Hat kid had.

This public execution would be enough to force any remaining Straw Hat members to rush to the palace to seek their deaths like moths to a flame.

Then, he would only need to sit high on his throne and use the hands of those Big Mom Pirates monsters lurking in the shadows to completely wipe out these little mice!

"Damn Crimson Lotus, killing my Diamante..."

"I will make you, and your companions, pay a heavy price!"

Doflamingo growled through gritted teeth, his eyes flashing with the fierce light of revenge.

Having made up his mind, Doflamingo did not stay any longer.

Transparent thin lines shot from his fingertips, and carrying Law, he quickly returned to the highest point of the towering Dressrosa Palace like a pink night owl.

As soon as he landed, Doflamingo threw Law heavily onto the cold marble floor.

He strode into the main hall and quickly issued orders to his subordinates, who were full of awe:

"Immediately pass on my orders!"

"Issue a top-level summons to all family executives scattered outside!"

"Have them immediately abandon all current tasks, whether it's clearing out small fry or gathering intelligence, stop everything!"

"Everyone, assemble in the palace hall immediately!"

The guards were so frightened by this murderous aura that they trembled, quickly kneeling on one knee to take the order, and then scrambled to convey it.

In the interval while waiting for the family executives to assemble, Doflamingo sat back on his wide sofa.

He reached into his coat and pulled out his exclusive encrypted Den Den Mushi.

Although he believed the overall situation was settled, his cautious nature led him to call the top executive in charge of guarding the underground SMILE Factory, Trebol, to confirm the factory's safety one last time.

After all, that was the lifeblood that maintained the operation of his underground dark empire.

"Bulu bulu... bulu bulu..."

The Den Den Mushi made a rhythmic calling sound.

"Kacha!"

The call was quickly connected.

However, before Doflamingo could ask, what came from the other end was not Trebol's greeting.

Instead, it was a burst of deafening fighting sounds and the massive roar of buildings collapsing.

"What's going on?!" Doflamingo's expression changed abruptly, and he leaned forward slightly.

Then, the Den Den Mushi vividly mimicked Trebol's face, which was covered in mucus.

Trebol's signature slimy scream came from inside:

"Doffy! This is bad! Something big has happened!

"Our factory... our factory is under attack!"

"Come quickly..."

"BOOM—!!!"

Before Trebol's terrified cry for help could finish, a violent explosion loud enough to burst eardrums suddenly came from the other end.

Amidst the violent explosion, a distorted scream from Trebol was heard.

Then, the Den Den Mushi's eyes suddenly turned white, it let out a weak wail, and hung up with a "clack."

Doflamingo sat on the sofa, his hand holding the Den Den Mushi frozen in mid-air.

An uncontrollable rage rushed straight to his brain.

The veins on his forehead and temples twisted and writhed frantically like thick earthworms.

"Damn it!!!"

Doflamingo suddenly crushed the remains of the Den Den Mushi in his hand, letting out a roar of fury.

The factory being attacked meant that the Straw Hat crew had not only not been wiped out by Big Mom's people, but had instead sneakily reached his home base!

Doflamingo stood up abruptly.

His eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed the dying Law from the ground and strode toward the terrace with the most open view of the palace.

"What are you still standing there for!"

"Prepare the Visual Transponder Snail for me! Immediately!!"

"I want them to watch how this mouse dies!!!"
