On the other side ————

The three officers of the Don Quixote family are stalling Vice Admiral Tsuru's naval squad as they maneuver through the ruins.

Upon seeing the powerful aura and dark red lightning erupting from the center of Ghost Town, Torebolo sensed something was wrong.

Ignoring the pursuing navy, the three sprinted at full speed towards the center of Ghost Island.

Torrepol shouted into the air as he ran.

"Buffalo, go and inform the ship immediately to be ready to evacuate at any time."

Baby5, perched on Buffalo's back, shouted, "Okay, I'm coming right away."

Knowing the situation was urgent, Buffalo's fan spun rapidly, dodging several shots from the navy below, and flew back to the port they had come from.

While pursuing the fleeing officers, Lieutenant General Tsuru kept glancing at the conspicuous battlefield in the center of the island.

"Kitahara Tsuneo?"

Of the four warships she led, only Kitahara Tsuneo possessed Conqueror's Haki.

She hadn't expected that after just two months of training, the other party would be able to control his Conqueror's Haki to such an extent that he could rival Doflamingo.

She turned to a female marine behind her and instructed, "Doflamingo's attention is not on this right now. Go back and inform the marines on the shore to come in."

"We must wipe out the entire Don Quixote family!"

The female navy woman nodded and immediately ran back.

They had already noticed that since the battle in the center of the island began, no more parasite lines had been floating in the sky, so there was no longer any worry about the incoming navy being controlled.

The port, the Red Flamingo.

Diamanti stood at the bow of the ship, where he could clearly see the dark red lightning flashing in the center of the island.

Long ago, he was captivated by this astonishing spirit and chose to serve Donquixote Doflamingo as his young master.

And this long-unseen Conqueror's Haki—he finally saw it again.

Along with the感慨 (feelings of deep emotion) came a sense of unease about the situation being out of control.

"Señor, use your Devil Fruit power to see what's happening in the center of the island," Diamante instructed Señor, who was on the ship's helm.

The opponent is a user of the Water-Water Fruit, who can swim at extremely high speeds on land and also has a certain degree of stealth.

If something really happens, they can use the Water-Water Fruit's abilities to manage for a while.

Señor nodded, and was about to light a cigarette when he realized he had already thrown the thing into the sea.

He shook his head, stood by the boat, and leaped toward the land in a diving motion, then swam toward the center of the island at an extremely fast speed.

And the center of the island—

The clash of Conqueror's Haki between Kitahara Tsuneo and Doflamingo continues.

The jet-black fist and the fine threads wrapped in Armament Haki sparked dark red lightning with every collision.

The immense force emanating from Kitahara Tsune's fist astonished Doflamingo.

The powerful force combined with Armament Haki forced Doflamingo to expend more energy to create threads to defend against the opponent's attack.

The two men twisted and turned in the air, clashing and exchanging blows.

Ultimately, Kitahara Tsuneo had more experience in aerial combat, while Doflamingo's "airway" created by the thin lines offered more restrictions.

In this high-speed exchange that lasted for tens of seconds, Kitahara Tsune had the upper hand, landing a punch on Doflamingo's face.

"You wretched brat!"

Doflamingo was sent flying backward by Kitahara Tsuneo's fist, rolling dozens of times in the air before finally coming to a stop.

He covered his head with his right hand and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

"Pooh!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with several knocked-out teeth.

His signature red sunglasses remained intact, though they had some cracks, they did not fall off.

"It seems that a head-on confrontation is not an option to defeat this brat for the time being. We need to change our battle strategy," Doflamingo thought.

He lightly touched the ground with his feet and leaped into the air.

Kitahara Tsune was about to follow when he discovered that a spider web made of many thin white lines had appeared in the sky above.

To prevent Kitahara Tsune from using a slashing attack to destroy it, a layer of Armament Haki was also applied to the net.

Clearly, Doflamingo intended to bind him to the spot in this way.

At the same time, dozens of "rogue lines" descended from the sky, aiming at Kitahara Tsuneo.

He used this move to injure Kitahara Tsune in the past, so he kept using it until he exhausted the opponent's stamina.

Kitahara Tsune frowned slightly; it seemed this battle wouldn't be easy to win.

He placed his right hand back on the hilt of the Ghost-Slaying Sword at his waist. Before the long sword was even drawn, Armament Haki was already wrapped around the blade.

"Ittōryu, Iai, Demon Slayer!"

Kitahara Tsune pulled sharply with his right hand, drawing the Demon Slayer from its sheath. In that instant, the Armament Haki attached to the Demon Slayer, along with the Ryuo, followed the blade's edge and rushed towards the black spider web that covered the sky.

Using the techniques of Iaijutsu, this "Demon Slayer" is faster and more powerful.

Doflamingo's black spider web only blocked Kitahara Tsutomu's dark sword light for a few seconds before it was cut apart!

"The Spider's Nest!"

Seeing his Armament Haki spider web being cut open, Doflamingo quickly released more spider webs in front of him to counteract the black blade light slashing at him.

However, the toughness of this blade's aura exceeded Doflamingo's expectations.

Without the spider silk defense covered by Armament Haki, it couldn't stop that black blade of light for even a second.

"hateful!"

Left with no other choice, Doflamingo could only cover his hands with Armament Haki and hold them in front of him.

Thanks to his specially made black spider web, most of the power of the attack was neutralized.

Just as Doflamingo's Armament Haki was about to run out, the blade of light finally dissipated into the air.

Doflamingo's forehead was covered in sweat, but a forced smile still tugged at the corners of his mouth.

There's really no way out now. Let me, Doflamingo, test just how capable you really are.

His forced smile grew increasingly sinister.

This situation reminded him of the scene when he was a child, when his father left Mary Geoise and they were put on trial and hung on the wall by the common people.

"I am Doflamingo!"

Doflamingo roared, no longer caring how much Armament Haki he had left.

Suddenly, eight extremely thick thin lines emerged from behind him.

Each thread was wrapped with a high density of Armament Haki.

That high-density Armament Haki was completely different from the jet-black Armament Haki that Kitahara Tsune had learned.

Doflamingo's high-density Armament Haki is purely an accumulation of quantity; the color that appears is no longer black, but a dark purple.

"Holy Bomb - God's Slaughter!"

In a desperate gamble, Doflamingo unleashed his full Observation Haki without regard for its own consumption, using the Holy Bullet, a weapon infused with high-density Armament Haki, to strike Kitahara Tsuneo from eight directions with lightning speed.
