"Mr. Doflamingo wants to pay double, which means you want to give me two Op-Op Fruits and six billion Berries?"

Upon hearing Wood's words, Doflamingo immediately revealed a furious expression and rushed in front of Wood in an instant, drawing out several threads between his fingers and slashing down at Wood with his claw.

"Since you insist on courting death, then today we'll let this so-called super rookie die here!"

It's obvious that Doflamingo thinks Wood is playing a trick on him. Putting aside the fact that there aren't two Op-Op Fruits in the world, let alone the 6 billion Berries.

The World Government only brought 5 billion Berries. To get Wood to compromise and leave, the Donquixote Family would have to pay him 1 billion Berries. Is that even possible?

"Let's talk business, why did Mr. Doflamingo suddenly start fighting?"

The fee that Diaz Barrelus paid me was indeed 80% of the total amount paid for this deal.

Even if you were willing to convert the two Ope Ope no Mi into Berries for me, I probably wouldn't agree.

After all, I had already promised to give the fruits of the surgery to someone as payment on the spot.

Besides, making a deal with the infamous Doflamingo is a very dangerous thing. Your last business partner is lying on the ground not far away right now.

Wood blocked Doflamingo's close-range grab with the "Five-Colored Threads" using the Heavenly Dry, and then drew another famous sword, Morning Dew, and slashed outward with a blue slash towards the opponent.

Doflamingo retreated several times, trying to dodge Wood's slash, but the crescent-shaped slash was like a leech, carving a deep trench in the ground and sticking to Doflamingo.

"Foot shave line!"

After several backward jumps, Doflamingo, unable to escape Wood's slash, realized that Wood's swordsmanship was comparable to that of a "great swordsman" on the sea. He could only use his long legs to sweep out eight nearly transparent threads, tearing Wood's crescent slash into several pieces!

However, the battle had only just begun when Wood vanished from his original spot the instant his slash flew out.

As Doflamingo shattered the attack with "Foot Shave," Wood's figure suddenly reappeared behind Doflamingo.

A wound on the back is a swordsman's shame? Sorry, Wood doesn't buy it at all. In his opinion, any opening is the best place to strike.

Is it meaningful to ignore the numerous flaws in the back and insist on the so-called "swordsman's glory"?

The world of pirates is cruel, not a game like child's play. Seizing every opportunity to kill your enemies is the best way to survive in this world.

Doflamingo's Observation Haki allowed him to anticipate Wood's slash from behind and attempt to defend with his Devil Fruit ability, but it was too late.

Therefore, he could only use his own Armament Haki to cover his arm and block Wood's blade with his forearm.

Just as Tenku's blade was blocked by Doflamingo's Armament Haki, its originally bright silver body began to turn pitch black at a visible speed.

It was obvious that Wood was also using Armament Haki.

Although Wood's Armament Haki may not be as strong or proficient as Doflamingo's.

However, due to the increased sharpness of the famous sword, a large amount of black lightning also erupted from Doflamingo's arm at this moment.

This is a clash of domineering forces, and also one of the symbols of the strong in the new world.

Because Wood came prepared, and with the added advantage of his famous sword and his own swordsmanship skills, even though his "Armament Haki" was not as strong as Doflamingo's.

However, at this moment, Doflamingo was still being suppressed by Wood's blade, his feet sinking deep into the ground, and the point where his arm collided with the sky was also beginning to sink slightly.

Anyone with eyes can see that if the stalemate continues, Doflamingo's Armament Haki will definitely be the first to give out.

However, even in the face of such danger, Doflamingo did not show much panic. At one point, he even suddenly revealed a smug smile.

Almost at the same moment, Wood's Observation Haki also sensed the danger coming from behind.

Wood's unique Observation Haki allowed him to see a guy who looked exactly like Doflamingo raising his arm and swinging it down. As he swung his arm, five steel wires shot down from top to bottom like leaf rakes.

"Shadow Riding Threads" is also one of Doflamingo's abilities from the "String-String Fruit." He creates thin threads that he can coil and tightly bind together in mid-air to create puppet-like clones made of threads.

The puppet looks exactly like the user, like a clone or doppelganger.

While defending against Wood's attack, Doflamingo had already used "Shadow Rider Line" to sneak up behind Wood, waiting for him to reveal an opening so he could kill him in one fell swoop.

Seeing the Shadow Rider's "Rogue Line" about to pierce through Wood's body, Doflamingo's mouth practically stretched to his ears in a grin.

"Kid, let me show you with facts just how laughable a greenhorn like you is to a true pirate who has been sailing the seas for years!"

When a backstab happens, Wood thinks he's the one who's attacking, but he doesn't realize that Doflamingo had already anticipated it and had been putting on an act all along.

The Shadow Rider's abilities and strength are undoubtedly the same as the original, and Doflamingo considers Wood's Armament Haki level to be average.

Now that the opponent's back is completely unguarded, once they are hit by my "Descending Rogue Line", the so-called super rookie will basically be doomed!

However, what Doflamingo didn't know was that Wood's Observation Haki was extremely special. Although it was an instantaneous event, in Wood's perception, Doflamingo's Shadow Rider Line movements seemed to be slowed down a hundred times, forming a series of segmented images.

Chapter 212 Corazon, who wanted to reap the benefits?

"Hyakki Mitsurugi-ryu - Ittō-ryu - Crochet Woman!"

Under Wood's special Observation Haki, Doflamingo's Shadow Rider Line, which was originally extremely fast, formed a series of segmented images under Wood's perception.

Wood quickly discerned the flaw in Doflamingo's Shadow Rider Line movement within a very short time.

The famous sword, Morning Dew, passed through Wood's armpit. A thrust that didn't even look back, yet it struck first and pierced Doflamingo's head!

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear you clearly what you said you wanted to show me."

The barbed slash directly blew Doflamingo's Shadow Rider Strings off his head. However, since the Shadow Rider Strings were made of the threads of the "String-String Fruit" and did not possess life, no blood flowed out after being blown off by Asaru, and it did not cause any damage to Doflamingo himself.

No, although it did not cause any physical harm, it did cause psychological trauma.

Doflamingo suffered another humiliating defeat, and this time the slap in the face hurt even more than before.

He thought he was more skilled and that the Shadow Riders were about to take Wood's life.

Therefore, when his opponent was about to die, Doflamingo would, as is his custom, taunt him to maximize the hatred and make him die feeling frustrated.

But Doflamingo never expected that his seemingly sure-fire attack would be so easily countered by Wood.

And this rhetorical question made the usually arrogant Doflamingo feel a sharp pain in his face.

The Shadow Knight Thread, which was shot in the head, did not truly die. Under Doflamingo's skillful manipulation of his fingers, it quickly returned to its original state and pulled out several more threads to grab Wood.

However, by the time the Shadow Riders line returned to normal, Wood had ample time to rebuild his forces.

With his left hand gripping the morning dew, he blocked the Shadow Rider Line's "Five-Colored Threads," while his right hand, Heaven's Desolation, was locked in a stalemate with Doflamingo's Armament Haki. Meanwhile, Wood's right foot delivered another slash!

"Storm Foot - Moon White!"

Tempest Kick! One of the Six Styles, it is a leg technique that uses super strong leg power to deliver a slashing strike. It is also Wood's most proficient Six Style technique besides "Shave".

The white crescent moon that was kicked out from the leg swelled in the wind and shot directly toward Doflamingo's chest, leaving him looking completely astonished.

Although Doflamingo used Armament Haki to defend himself the instant the crescent-shaped storm kick struck his chest.

However, the powerful impact of the white crescent moon still plowed through the ground and slammed into Doflamingo's chest, sending him flying into the forest.

"Thump—thump—thump—thump!"

A rhythmic sound rang out in the forest, startling a large number of birds. However, as soon as these birds took flight, they crashed into the "birdcage" in the air, were sliced ​​into pieces by the sharp threads, and fell back to the ground.

Doflamingo's body, carried by the white crescent moon, crashed into several large trees in the forest. He only managed to stop his backward fall by using the threads he shot from his fingers to entangle the surrounding trees.

Doflamingo's exposed chest now bears a faint line of blood.

Because he used Armament Haki, the wound on his chest was very shallow; it was barely even an injury, just a scratch.

While the Storm Kick is convenient, the power of its strikes can never compare to that of a famous sword. Otherwise, everyone who masters the Six Styles: Storm Kick would be a swordsman.

Because Doflamingo was sent flying by the White Crescent Moon, the out-of-control Shadow Rider String was easily cut into several pieces by Wood, like a puppet that had broken its strings.

Doflamingo, who had just stopped moving, felt a surge of anger when he saw his life-size figure, which was a perfect replica of himself, being cleanly and efficiently cut into several pieces by Wood.

"Super Strike Whip!"

Doflamingo extended his arm backward and then shot out dozens of nearly transparent, thin threads from his palm. These threads intertwined to form a thick column of thread, as thick as a hair, and shot towards Wood from an extremely long distance.

At first glance, this move looks a bit like Luffy's Gum-Gum Pistol, but in terms of destructive power, the Gum-Gum Boy is no match at all.

The barrage of whips swept through the forest, cutting through large trees that required two people to encircle them in an instant, leaving no room for resistance, with clean, smooth cuts!

The Super Whip attack not only has an extremely long range, but it is also extremely fast. Wood's Observation Haki had just sensed something was wrong and he had just raised his sword to defend when the immense impact almost knocked the long sword out of his hand.

A massive amount of dust rose in a straight line stretching for tens of kilometers through the forest, as if in retaliation for Wood's rather embarrassing Tempest Kick. Wood, who had directly blocked Doflamingo's "Super Whip," was also sent flying tens of kilometers away!

Seeing the trees in the forest that had mostly collapsed due to their battle, and the two extremely long ravines running in opposite directions on the ground, Corazon and Trafalgar Law, who were hiding in the shadows observing the situation, were completely dumbfounded.

The reason Corazon and his group were hiding here was naturally because of the "Operation Fruit" in Wood's possession, since only that thing could cure Law's lead poisoning.

Snatching food from the jaws of two powerful figures is certainly extremely dangerous, but Corazon is a silent person who ate the "Silence-Silence Fruit," so given the right opportunity, he might still have a chance!

If Doflamingo wins this battle, the "Op-Op Fruit" will fall into the hands of the Donquixote Family, while if Wood wins, it will fall into the hands of the Marine Headquarters.

Although Corazon was a Navy spy planted by Fleet Admiral Sengoku, it's obvious that once the "Op-Op Fruit" becomes a Navy prize, the Navy would never be willing to use a Devil Fruit worth 5 billion Berries to save a worthless child with lead poisoning.

So whether Doflamingo or Wood wins this battle, the Op-Op Fruit will ultimately have nothing to do with them.

To save Trafalgar Law's life, they must risk their own lives and secretly steal the Op-Op Fruit while the two powerful figures are fighting.

Under normal circumstances, even if a strong person is focused on fighting, it would be extremely difficult for them to steal the "Operation Fruit".

However, Corazon's Devil Fruit ability can create a Silent Zone, minimizing their presence, so what was previously impossible now has a chance.

To be honest, when Corazon first learned that only Wood had been sent from the Navy Headquarters, he thought that they had no chance at all.

Chapter 213 Conqueror's Haki? So what?

Wood, a traitor to the Navy, has caused trouble in Impel Down, attacked the Navy branch, and clashed with Enies Lobby. He is a notorious pirate with a bounty of one billion.
