Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 419 Doflamingo: The name that guy gave me... is it a death warrant?

"Strike the string!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Sasuke and Ace were talking, Doflamingo quickly shot out a white line from his fingertip, intending to launch a sneak attack!

This tiny white line was almost invisible, but it flew with the force of a bullet, even more powerful than a bullet, and shot towards Sasuke's body at great speed!

Sasuke swung his sword to block the white line, a flash of red light appearing in his eyes as he coldly stared at Doflamingo: "Under the Sharingan's gaze, I can easily see through any of your movements. Don't try to be clever..."

"Fufufufufu..."

Doflamingo's smile remained unchanged. Suddenly, a white line appeared at his fingertips, and he continued with a low laugh, "There's no harm in trying... Trebol, Diamante, you can all step back!"

"Dover..."

The surrounding members couldn't help but look at Doflamingo.

These are two super rookies with bounties exceeding 9 million Berries. Even in the New World, where the Four Emperors reside, they are figures who can secure a place for themselves!

"Step back!"

A cold glint flashed across Doflamingo's face as he spoke in a somber voice, "This is no longer a battle you can interfere in. Now, stay away!"

to be frank.

This battle is not fair.

After witnessing Sasuke and Ace's Conqueror's Haki, Doflamingo knew that he had to fight both of them alone, because even if all of Donquixote's other executives rushed at him, they wouldn't be able to defeat one of these monsters.

The laws of the New World are completely different from those of the first half of the Grand Line.

Because here, once a person's martial prowess has reached its peak, only a true king can contend with another king.

Portgas D. Ace watched as Doflamingo gave the order, and a group of members swarmed back, looking quite imposing.

Ace, mimicking Doflamingo, spoke coldly: "Hey, Sasuke, step back. This isn't a battle you can interfere in..."

"Shut up!"

Sasuke Uchiha couldn't help but rub his temples: "You're the one who should step down! Your target is Whitebeard! Let me handle this small fry..."

"Hmm...you make a good point."

After slowly nodding, Ace couldn't help but say, "But I'm the captain! They sent out the captain to fight..."

"Shut up!"

Sasuke Uchiha's face suddenly darkened, and a chill ran through his voice: "Your target is the Four Emperors of the sea! If you, as the captain, are always the one to take the lead, what am I, the first mate, for?!"

The next moment, Uchiha Sasuke rushed directly towards Doflamingo, his finger suddenly pointing upwards, and a cold voice fell into everyone's ears!

"Chidori Sharp Spear!"

Strikes of lightning were unleashed by Sasuke Uchiha!

A look of surprise flashed across Doflamingo's face, and under the perception of Observation Haki, his figure twisted in a strange way!

However, just as he dodged the Thousand Bird Spear composed of bolts of lightning, a fireball filled with raging flames surged toward Doflamingo!

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"The Spider's Nest!"

A look of surprise flashed across Doflamingo's face as he waved his hand, creating a sturdy spiderweb to block the incoming Fireball Jutsu.

The fireball quickly burned the spider web to ashes!

However, this gave Doflamingo enough time to escape, and the ground of the palace was quickly blasted to pieces by the Great Fireball Technique!

"I heard the vice-captain of the Spade Pirates is a ninja..."

Doflamingo faced the charging Sasuke Uchiha, grinning, "Looks like ninja abilities are more interesting than we imagined... Fufufufufu..."

The next moment, their arms collided!

The impact of the clash between Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki instantly swept across Dressrosa, causing the earth to tremble and towering waves to rise from the sea!

"Is this all there is to it?"

A contemptuous smile flashed across Sasuke's lips. He could clearly sense his own power; in this clash, he had almost completely overwhelmed Doflamingo!

This guy…

They're so pitifully weak!

He's not even as good as Admirals Aokiji and Kizaru!

The next moment, the two engaged in a physical battle, their fists covered in Armament Haki as they clashed. No matter how Doflamingo used his String-String Fruit ability, he could not break through Sasuke's defense!

Doflamingo's face darkened, and he flipped over and kicked out, white lines rapidly spreading from his foot!

"Shave the line!"

"I already said..."

Sasuke Uchiha tilted his head, easily dodging the attack from the Foot Shave Line. His eyes gleamed red: "I've seen through everything about you! Doflamingo, your fate was already sealed!"

The next moment, Sasuke Uchiha drew his ninja sword and suddenly unleashed a strike!

As Doflamingo tried to defend and dodge, the sword seemed to have eyes, passing through all his defenses and slashing diagonally into Doflamingo's chest!

This attack even slashed through the Armament Haki covering Doflamingo's body, leaving a long, thin wound!

Countless densely packed blades flew out!

Doflamingo knew his Armament Haki wasn't strong enough, so he reconstituted a spider web to block Sasuke's attack, but it was still to no avail!

Can't stop!

It's impossible to stop!

A single slash pierced through the spiderweb defenses!

Doflamingo retreated rapidly; he didn't want to be cleaved in two by Sasuke Uchiha's sword!

"Universal Guidance!"

Sasuke glanced at Doflamingo with disdain, his fingers suddenly clenched, the light of the Rinnegan in his eye sockets flashed and disappeared, and a gravitational force suddenly burst forth!

Doflamingo's body was involuntarily pulled toward Sasuke!

"Damn it...it's gravity..."

Doflamingo hastily drew out white threads with his fingers, wrapping them around huge rocks in an attempt to stabilize his body!

Just as he was locked in a stalemate, a black flame suddenly shot out from Sasuke's hand. This flame release was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing through Doflamingo's body!

Blood splattered!

"His combat intelligence is pitifully low..."

Sasuke casually clasped his hands together, looking at Doflamingo with disdain: "Luckily, that idiot Ace refused the title of Shichibukai, otherwise, wouldn't he be ranked alongside trash like you?"

"..."

Doflamingo knelt on one knee, touching the wound that had pierced his body. White threads spread rapidly from his fingertips, quickly stitching up his wound.

This Sasuke is too arrogant!

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was the captain of the Spade Pirates!

but…

This guy is really too strong!

Sasuke's extraordinary and powerful Haki alone put Doflamingo at a significant disadvantage before the battle even began, not to mention his various strange and unusual abilities, as well as his superb swordsmanship and taijutsu...

This Uchiha Sasuke is simply an all-around strongman!

This guy didn't even use any particularly powerful abilities during the fight; it was as if he was just casually beating Doflamingo into a sorry state...

They had only been fighting for a short time when Doflamingo felt completely powerless, as if he were facing a group of monsters from the New World!

"How dare you hurt Dover!"

Just then, a sharp voice reached their ears, and Diamanti charged forward, brandishing his sword like a madman!

"Step back!"

Doflamingo hastily waved his hand, creating a huge ball of white thread that sent Diamante flying. Only then did he look at Sasuke and chuckle, "Sasuke and I are engaged in a battle between kings..."

"It doesn't matter what they do."

Sasuke Uchiha nonchalantly opened his palm, looking coldly at Doflamingo, and said, "Besides... I can't exactly kill a bug while also trying to avoid stepping on a few ants, can I?"

That's a really domineering statement!

This clearly shows that they don't consider the Don Quixote family to be human!

Doflamingo's forehead throbbed. He watched as Sasuke Uchiha suppressed his rage, a sinister smile slowly spreading across his face: "...Fufufufufu...No wonder you're the most terrifying supernova on this ocean!"

After saying this, Doflamingo abruptly changed the subject, saying, "It really makes one curious about Mr. Sasuke's background... The surname Uchiha is quite rare... I wonder if Mr. Sasuke has ever heard of the name Uchiha Itachi?"

The person behind Kakuzu told him this name.

Doflamingo seems to think he can be used to test Sasuke Uchiha, and maybe he can find an opportunity!

"..."

Sasuke Uchiha's body stiffened for a second.

The next moment, Doflamingo waved his hand, turning everything on the ground into white lines—this was his awakened Devil Fruit ability!

Once the fruit awakens, it can turn everything around it into its own creation. The String-String Fruit's ability is to turn everything into strings that it can control!

"A desolate white line!"

Tens of thousands of white lines surged upwards, sweeping towards Sasuke!

In an instant, the white lines enveloped Sasuke Uchiha's body, binding him directly within them. Sasuke simply stood there, letting the white lines seal him in.

"Who told you this name...?"

Sasuke Uchiha's voice came from within the white lines, and beams of purple light were projected from the dense white lines!

The next moment, a tall figure broke free of the white line!

The purple, fully-formed Susanoo giant stood proudly on this land!

To be honest, Susanoo's size wasn't particularly impressive in Dressrosa, since Pica, the top executive of the Donquixote Family, could transform into a stone giant a thousand meters tall. However, the two were completely different in terms of presence!

The moment Doflamingo saw the purple, complete Susanoo, he seemed to see the calamity and destruction surrounding it through his Observation Haki!

This is no ordinary giant!

The towering Susanoo suddenly drew its ninja sword and slashed down at Doflamingo, as if it could slice the entire Dressrosa in half!

No, not just seemingly... but definitely can!

Doflamingo's expression changed, and he instantly manipulated countless white threads to converge, transforming them into a solid spiderweb shield to block Susanoo's blade!

Unfortunately, Susanoo's sword cleaved everything in two!

Doflamingo watched as the massive slash pierced through the ground, leaving a deep trench in the earth!

"Did mentioning this person anger Uchiha Sasuke?"

Doflamingo's expression shifted, a bead of cold sweat appearing on his forehead. He raised his head and said coldly, "Mr. Sasuke, our battle was actually being monitored by someone else, perhaps even orchestrated by him—the one who gave me this name..."

"Shut up!"

Sasuke Uchiha stood inside the crystal of Susanoo, looking down at Doflamingo below, and manipulating Susanoo to point his ninja sword at him.

Doflamingo.

Sasuke Uchiha could barely contain his anger. He stared at Doflamingo and continued in a cold voice, "Did the person who told Itachi Uchiha his name forget to remind you?"

A mad glint flashed across Sasuke Uchiha's face. His eyes grew colder and colder, and Conqueror's Haki erupted from Susanoo, engulfing the entire Dressrosa!

"If you try to blackmail me with this name, I might spare your life, but I'll make you wish you were dead!"

"..."

Doflamingo's expression changed.

There's really a problem; the person behind Kakuzu has betrayed him!

Mentioning that name might save your life, but it would also enrage Uchiha Sasuke. Why didn't that person tell him this?!

It just so happened at that moment.

Trebol slowly approached Ace and cautiously asked, "Captain Ace, who exactly is that Uchiha Itachi?"

"..."

Portgas D. Ace's expression was no longer playful; he had little interest in Torrepol's antics, and his eyes held a serious look.

"Itachi Uchiha was Sasuke's older brother who loved him the most in the world. He has passed away."

"..."

Torrepol's expression was subtly unpleasant.

Now, Doflamingo is mentioning his deceased brother in front of his younger brother, and things don't look good!

First update.

I've almost reached four thousand words again...

I feel like I'm mentally challenged.

And there's more...
