Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

Originally intending to finish off the opponent with a single "Five-Colored Threads" attack, the attack direction was forcibly changed in mid-air, causing the pirate crew members standing next to Dias Barreus to be directly cut into pieces by the sharp threads!

"Hahahaha, it seems you've figured it out too. What makes you so sure that the surgical fruit in my vice-captain's hands is real?"

Diaz Barrerus was still shaken by the sharp threads that had just grazed his face.

It was only when the blood of his subordinates splattered onto his face that Dias Barreus truly realized just how vast the difference in strength between himself and Doflamingo really was.

Upon hearing Diablos Barreus speak with such composure, Doflamingo's forehead veins bulged once again.

When Dyce Barrels landed on Minion Island, the Devil Fruit he carried was the "Op-Op Fruit," a fact confirmed by Doflamingo.

Furthermore, Dias Barreus and his pirate crew, who had been under the surveillance of the Donquixote Family, never had a chance to leave.

In other words, the "Operation Fruit" is definitely still on Minnion Island, but whether it's in the hands of that first mate is really hard to say.

The island isn't very big, but it's not small either, if Dias Barreus really did hide the Op-Op Fruit.

Finding a Devil Fruit the size of a regular fruit on this island is definitely not an easy task.

After learning that the Op-Op Fruit wasn't there, Doflamingo grabbed Diaz Barreus from the ground, leaped into the air, and planned to take Diaz Barreus to find the other's vice-captain.

If the vice-captain knew the location of the "Op-Op Fruit," or if what the other party had was the "Op-Op Fruit," then Doflamingo would make Diablos Barreus realize just how serious the consequences of fooling him were!

Doflamingo's ability to walk in the air is not due to mastering "Rokushiki: Moonwalk," but rather a technique using the power of his Devil Fruit, the "String-String Fruit."

The Sky Path uses threads so thin they're invisible to the naked eye to bind Doflamingo to the clouds in the sky, thereby pulling him along and allowing him to fly at high speeds in mid-air.

While the idea that clouds have a physical form is absurd, this is a shonen anime, and discussing science is inherently absurd.

When the World Government saw that Doflamingo had first surrounded the entire island with the "Birdcage" and was now bringing Diablos Barreus with him, intending to steal the "Op-Op Fruit," they naturally prepared to intervene and stop him.

Based on his previous actions, the World Government is now naturally convinced that Doflamingo has designs on the "Op-Op Fruit".

While not all of Dias Barreus's previous words were entirely true, Doflamingo's intention to wipe them out in one fell swoop was quite clear.

However, just as the World Government was about to make a move, they were stopped by Pica and other executives, including Lao G, who had been hiding in the shadows.

Before the naval vice admirals could even make a move, they were betrayed by their comrade, Vice Admiral Vergo, and almost all of them died with their eyes wide open in pools of blood.

The World Government's forces, which were originally sufficient to suppress the Donquixote Family, were reduced to a stalemate due to Vergo's defection and the deaths of several Vice Admirals.

It was Doflamingo's deliberate arrangement that Vergo would be one of the World Government's entourage this time.

After all, if everyone involved in the transaction is dead, even if Doflamingo wants to shift the blame to the "missing" Diablos Barreus, his one-sided account will never be enough.

Even if he was a former Celestial Dragon and had certain connections with the World Government, the same applies.

Therefore, other witnesses become very important. Vergo, the original "Heart," is a survivor of this incident, and as a vice admiral, he can testify for Doflamingo.

It was Deus Barreus who concealed his strength and stole 5 billion Berries and the "Op-Op Fruit" during the transaction, then disappeared.

To be honest, Doflamingo's entire plan was already quite perfect, and he even made preparations for the aftermath.

If his plan proceeds as intended, even if Fleet Admiral Sengoku learns the whole story through Corazon, he will at most know that Vergo is an undercover agent, and will pose no threat to Doflamingo whatsoever.

Doflamingo never expected that his otherwise perfect plan would be disrupted by Wood, this troublemaker.

Doflamingo moved rapidly through the air using the Sky Strike technique, dragging Diablo, whose limbs had been broken, in his hand. He quickly found Diablo's first mate at the location Corazon had mentioned.

Doflamingo had virtually no knowledge of the vice-captain of the Diablo Pirates, after all, Diablo himself was just a nobody in his eyes.

When Doflamingo saw a young pirate in the air, clutching a suitcase and frantically dodging the ever-shrinking birdcage, he unleashed a sweeping kick that sent a streak of energy flying towards the pirate.

The fine, almost imperceptible threads sliced ​​across the ground, cutting through the hard surface with ease, much like a hot knife slicing through butter.

Doflamingo's "Foot Shave" was not aimed at the life of the minor pirate in front of him, but at the arm holding the briefcase.

"Ding------!"

However, just when Doflamingo thought that the minor pirate in front of him would lose an arm because of his "String-String Fruit" ability, something unexpected happened!

Chapter 210 This is no minor character, the vice-captain!

To be honest, Doflamingo really didn't take the vice-captain of the Dias Barreus Pirates seriously.

They even believed that once they found the other party, the "surgery results" in their hands would be practically within their grasp.

However, just when Doflamingo thought that the minor pirate in front of him would let out a miserable wail because he had lost an arm, something unexpected happened!

Just as his "foot-shaving thread" easily cut through the ground and was about to sever the opponent's arm along its original trajectory, the opponent used a long knife to firmly block his thread!

Meanwhile, the previously panicked vice-captain, dressed as an ordinary passerby, raised his head slightly, looked at Doflamingo in the air, and grinned, revealing his teeth.

As the razor blade collided with the blade of the Heavenly Dry Blade, sparks began to fly into the air.

However, this situation did not last long. Soon, to Doflamingo's astonishment, his Foot Shave Thread was severed by the opponent with a single slash!

With just this one blow, Doflamingo was certain that the vice-captain of Dias Barreus in front of him was definitely not the real deal!

Diaz Barreus's skill level is what it is; if he were to fight me seriously, he probably wouldn't even last three rounds.

The so-called "first mate" in front of him could sever his own foot shaving line with a sword, and his strength was clearly beyond that of an ordinary swordsman.

A pirate crew's vice-captain can be stronger than the captain? And this vice-captain is a pirate with no bounty and no reputation whatsoever? Who would believe that?!

"While I may not be the vice-captain of the Dias Barreus Pirates, the Op-Op Fruit is indeed with me. Don't you want it anymore, Clown?"

Since Doflamingo had been successfully lured over, Wood simply stopped pretending and shed his original disguise.

When Doflamingo, who was watching Wood, saw that Wood had removed his disguise and straightened his hair, he finally showed a look of sudden realization.

"So it was you, the naval traitor Wood! I never thought that Dias Barrerus would be able to get in touch with you."

Now it seems that all of Diaz Barreus's strange behavior afterwards was your doing!

Looking at Wood in front of him, Doflamingo couldn't possibly not recognize him. As a prominent figure in the underworld, he could hear almost anything that happened on the high seas.

Doflamingo also knew that because mermaids were quite popular in the underworld, many big shots had secretly tried to win over this super rookie who had recently been making headlines in the ocean!

Doflamingo wasn't surprised that Wood, having been exposed to the underworld, knew about the "Op-Op Fruit."

Furthermore, given that both Dias Barreus and Wood were officers who betrayed the Navy, Doflamingo wasn't too surprised that they would choose to cooperate.

What Doflamingo found unbelievable was that Wood, knowing that the World Government wanted to buy the "Op-Op Fruit" and that he himself had the idea of ​​double-crossing them, still dared to get involved.

A bounty of one billion Berries sounds impressive, but Doflamingo is well aware that Wood's bounty is largely inflated because he offended the World Government.

"You went to great lengths to set up all this just so that the World Government would hold off my men and then lure me here alone?"

With a bounty of one billion Berries, do you think you can take me, Doflamingo, by heart?

Don't forget, a bounty is not the same as strength. I became a pirate when I was ten years old, and I'm twenty-five now. Compared to my experience, your so-called super rookie is just a rookie.

The Devil Fruit in your possession is not something you can afford to touch at this stage. If you obediently hand it over, I might spare your life, considering you've displeased the World Government.

Doflamingo said this not because he was soft-hearted, nor for the reasons he stated.

Instead, Doflamingo was worried that Wood would resort to desperate measures and destroy the "Operation Fruit" in his hands.

As for Wood, it's true that Doflamingo is willing to spare his life if he hands over the Fruit of Operation.

However, this is for a reason, because Doflamingo believes that Wood is a more compelling scapegoat than Diablos Barreus, and is more likely to convince the World Government.

Now, disrupting the deal and stealing Pele and the "Operation Fruit" is quite reasonable, isn't it?

As for Diaz Barrelus, who was previously blamed?

I'm sorry, but Doflamingo has already found the "Op-Op Fruit," and Diablos Barreus has no value left to be a scapegoat, so keeping him around is just a waste of air!

Seeing Doflamingo holding his head in one hand while the other hand drew out multiple threads that kept approaching his face, Dias Barreus panicked instantly and began frantically pleading for help from Wood.

However, before Wood could make a move, Doflamingo had already slit Dias Barreus's throat with his silk threads, watching him struggle and die in his hands.

Wood's response to Diablos's plea for help wasn't because he was heartless enough to watch his partner die, but because Diablos was captured by Doflamingo, and no matter how fast Wood was, he couldn't save him.

After all, Doflamingo is not a weakling like Spandam. Approaching him rashly would be very dangerous for Wood.

Moreover, in Wood's view, Diaz Barrerus's current predicament was entirely his own fault.

According to Wood's original plan, Dias Barreus only needed to throw the empty box to the World Government to cause conflict between the two sides, and then he could leave in the chaos.

Unfortunately, this guy lacked the strength but had boundless ambition. Seeing the Donquixote Family fighting with the World Government, he thought he could sit back and reap the benefits, stealing the five billion Berries.

Who knew that Diablos Barreus overestimated his own strength and underestimated Doflamingo.

He thought that even if he was no match for Doflamingo, he would still have the strength to escape. Who knew that in the end he would not even have a chance to fight back against his opponent and would be easily captured by his opponent after a few rounds.

He didn't get his hands on 5 billion pegories, and he even lost his life in the process.

Wood remained unmoved by Diaz Barrerus's death. After all, they weren't close to each other, and besides, with the other party dead, he wouldn't even have to share the money, which wasn't a bad thing.

Chapter 211 Backstabbing Meets Backstabbing

Doflamingo tossed the dead Dias Barreus to the ground like trash, then gave Wood a cruel smile, as if using Dias Barreus's corpse to warn him not to be ungrateful.

"I'll give you one last chance. I, Doflamingo, will give you double the benefits that Dias Barreus gave you. Now hand over the Ope Ope no Mi, and I might give you a way out."

We're all in the underworld; we might have opportunities to work together in the future.

Looking at Wood in front of him, Doflamingo still felt he should give Wood one last chance to live.

On one hand, he wanted Wood to live and take the blame; on the other hand, Wood had caught the eye of a powerful figure in the underworld, and Doflamingo didn't want to offend that figure unless absolutely necessary.

"When I worked with Diaz Barreus before, the price he paid was the Op-Op Fruit and three billion Berries."
