When Trafalgar Law had received this reward earlier, Donquixote Doflamingo had been filled with a surge of excitement!!!

After all, the Ope Ope no Mi—the Surgery Fruit—had originally been his lead to obtain!!!

At first, he had planned for his younger brother, Donquixote Rosinante, to eat it. But due to an unfortunate twist of fate, Trafalgar Law ended up consuming it instead...

Since then, Doflamingo had gone to great lengths to try and bring Trafalgar Law back into the Donquixote Family...

His intentions were crystal clear—he wanted immortality!!!

But because he had personally killed Rosinante, not only did Trafalgar Law refuse to return to the Donquixote Family, but he also vowed to kill Doflamingo at any cost as revenge for Rosinante's death!!!

So... after realizing this, Doflamingo's initial excitement quickly turned into unease.

As he read through the chatroom discussions, a sense of foreboding began to weigh heavily on him...

He knew exactly how much Trafalgar Law hated him.

To put it simply, Trafalgar Law would do anything if it meant killing him.

The moment Doflamingo realized that Law held the ultimate trump card, his unease skyrocketed into sheer panic!!!

And now...

When Trafalgar Law announced this condition, Doflamingo completely lost his composure!!!

He was utterly furious!!!

Doflamingo was ready to curse everyone in sight!!!

Damn this viewing system for picking such a terrible timing!!!

Why now?! Why during the Marineford War?!

There were easily over ten powerful individuals present who could kill him!!!

Although he was technically on the Marines' side in this war, Doflamingo wasn't foolish enough to believe they'd actually protect him...

This was immortality we're talking about!!!

Who wouldn't be tempted by that?!

Kill Doflamingo, and you get the chance for Eternal Life Surgery!!!

If there was even the slightest opportunity, no one would refuse!!!

He glanced around at where he was standing, and his face darkened further...

On either side of him stood Moonlight Moria and Dracule Mihawk!

Beyond them were Bartholomew Kuma and Empress Boa Hancock!!!

Forget about anyone else—just these four alone were more than capable of ending him!!!

Behind him on the high platform sat the three Admirals of the Marines!!!

Doflamingo estimated that the moment the viewing system lifted its restrictions, magma, ice, and light beams would come roaring straight at him!!!

Not to mention, the battlefield ahead was teeming with the Whitebeard Pirates, watching like vultures!!!

Damn it...

This was a death trap!!!

Rocks D. Gibeck: "Just kill someone? That's too easy! Kid, wait until I'm resurrected—I'll take care of it for you!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Idiot, what are you thinking?! Do you think something this good will fall into your hands???"

Sakazuki: "Doflamingo is currently at Marine HQ. This isn't something you pirates need to concern yourselves with!!!"

Donquixote Doflamingo: "Hey, hey, hey!!! Admiral Sakazuki, what do you mean by that?! You invited me here to fight against pirates, and now you're planning to stab me in the back??? Fleet Admiral Sengoku, aren't you going to step in???"

Sengoku: "Sakazuki, shut up!!! We Marines won't betray our allies like this!!! Doflamingo, listen carefully. Once the viewing system's restrictions are lifted, run straight toward me!!! I'll make sure no one harms you!!!"

Shiki: "Jajajaja!!! Sengoku, do you really think Doflamingo is stupid enough to run toward you? Would he just hand over his head to you willingly???"

Moonlight Moria: "Exactly! If you go to Sengoku, he'll definitely kill you! But I'm different—we're both Warlords of the Sea. Grab onto me the moment you get the chance, and I guarantee I'll safely escort you out of Marineford!!!"

Moria had brought Absalom with him to the Marineford War.

Absalom, one of his subordinates, was a Devil Fruit user with invisibility powers.

Ever since arriving at Marine HQ, Absalom had been in stealth mode, ready to protect Moria at a moment's notice!!!

If Moria were ever in danger, Absalom would immediately render him invisible and whisk him away to safety...

And now, this contingency plan could undoubtedly save Doflamingo as well!!!

Of course...

Was Moria genuinely planning to save Doflamingo?

Absolutely not!!!

Moria knew that if he attacked Doflamingo directly, there was no way he'd be the one to claim his head!!!

But if he managed to rescue Doflamingo, things would change.

Once he gained Doflamingo's trust, he'd have the perfect opportunity to take his head later!!!

Doflamingo glanced sideways at Moonlight Moria.

I trust you as far as I can throw you...

Donquixote Doflamingo: "Hawk-Eye, surely someone like you wouldn't stoop to something so trivial, right?"

Dracule Mihawk: "Trivial? This is a chance at immortality. I have no reason not to act."

Damn!!!

Doflamingo's face turned pitch black!!!

This man was absolutely capable of killing him!!!

What made matters worse was that they were standing right next to each other...

Boa Hancock: "Listen well, young Law. This Empress will also make her move! When the live broadcast from Shabondy Archipelago airs, watch closely—you might see my attack deliver the final blow to Doflamingo!"

Borsalino: "Woo~ Don't underestimate the speed of light. This old man wants to join in on the fun too!"

"..."

Doflamingo's heart sank like a stone...

Damn it... It's all over!!!

This was hopeless!!!
