Chapter 585 Caesar and Monet's Sudden Betrayal

When Doflamingo arrived at the agreed time and place on the north coast of Dressressa, Law and Zoro were already waiting there for a long time.

When Doflamingo saw Zoro and Sanji beside Law, he initially thought Law had made some preparations, but a disdainful smile appeared on his face.

Previously, when Law captured Caesar alive, Doflamingo was worried that the other party would set some kind of trap to deal with him. However, when he arrived here and only saw Law and Zoro and a few others, Doflamingo immediately calmed down.

Just kidding. Although Doflamingo may not be as big as the "Four Emperors" or "Marine Admirals," he is still a prominent figure on the sea.

Law is one thing, but he doesn't even take Straw Hat Luffy of the Straw Hat Pirates seriously. Now that Law has brought along two of the opponent's main crew members, what can he do to him?

To put it bluntly, even if Law, Zoro, and Sanji were the only three left, even if Law brought the entire Straw Hat Pirates, they still wouldn't be enough to defeat Doflamingo if he got serious.

"Fufufufufu, Luo, I thought you would have improved after all these years, but I didn't expect you to dare to challenge me with just these two characters. It seems I've been too lenient with you all these years, to the point that you've forgotten what kind of person I am!"

Doflamingo stood in mid-air using the threads, with an almost unobstructed view of the surrounding area. There were no other obstacles, which meant that the only people here were Law and Zoro.

“I know you better than anyone else what kind of person you are, but now Caesar is in our hands. As long as we have this bargaining chip, we are invincible.”

Despite Doflamingo's taunts, Law paid no heed and instead took out a heart that had been placed in a cube-shaped space from his pocket.

As for whose heart it is, Doflamingo could already guess even without Rodoro saying so.

While Doflamingo's strength is indeed enough to overwhelm Law, he himself believes he simply cannot kill Law and Zoro before he can crush Caesar's heart.

"Stop! What exactly do you want me to do?"

Seeing Caesar's heart being squeezed and materialized in Law's hands, and seeing Caesar, who was being held by Sanji, showing an extremely painful expression on his face, Doflamingo finally couldn't help but speak first and back down.

“My request is simple: I want you to relinquish your position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and give up the throne of Dressresreza.”

Upon hearing Law's request, Doflamingo's expression immediately turned extremely sarcastic as he said, "Law, are you kidding me?"

Do you know how much I planned to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the King of Dressrosa?

Do you think Caesar's life was worth that price? Or do you think I've been too merciful, allowing you all to take advantage of me?

If he relinquishes the title of "Shichibukai" and the throne of Dressresreza, then Doflamingo is merely a pirate with slightly greater strength.

Doflamingo isn't stupid. If he gives up these things now, why would the Navy help him defend against Wood and his weapons company's attacks?

"Are you sure? Without Caesar, you would have offended both the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates at the same time."

If you add the Wood Arms Company you've messed with, there probably won't be a place for you anywhere in this entire ocean, will there?

Seeing Doflamingo's blustering but cowardly demeanor, Law displayed an attitude of complete confidence.

Putting aside the fact that these people here are in cahoots, even if Caesar and Monet are no longer on his side, as long as Caesar is still in his hands, Law is not afraid at all, because he knows that Doflamingo would not dare to gamble.

"It's impossible for me to give up both the title of 'Shichibukai' and the throne of Dressresreza at the same time!"

If that's the case, I might as well kill you all here, because Caesar isn't worth that price at all.

Our Donquixote Family has basically mastered the technology of creating artificial Devil Fruits. As for the research on giantification, there is still room for negotiation with Big Mom.

In short, if you think that capturing Caesar will give you complete control over Doflamingo, you're being incredibly naive!

"Caesar's worth is only enough for me to give up either the title of one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea or the throne of Dressres."

Seeing Doflamingo squeezing and deforming the heart in his hands, Caesar's slightly exaggerated acting was already beyond his usual level, but Doflamingo still refused to compromise, and Law could only make concessions with a grim expression in the end.

To be honest, he didn't expect Doflamingo to compromise because of his threats. If Doflamingo were such an easy person, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble to plan his revenge over the years.

After negotiations, Doflamingo agreed to Law's request to relinquish his title as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and Law in return handed over Caesar and Monet.

"JOKER, you never told me before that Luo would be a traitor. Because of him, my research institute and research data are all gone. What are we going to do now?!"

Once freed, Caesar continued in his usual manner, complaining to Doflamingo as much as he could.

Meanwhile, Monet, who was standing to the side, bowed to Doflamingo like a subordinate who had done something wrong and said, "I am really sorry, young master. I have done as you ordered, but the Straw Hat crew's strength far exceeds our previous estimates."

Even Vergo was brutally killed in the attack by Vice Admiral Smoker and Law.

Upon hearing Monet's words, Doflamingo's face visibly darkened.

After confirming that Caesar and Monet were safe, Doflamingo was immediately attacked by Law, Zoro, and the other two!

Are you kidding me? Doflamingo is known as the "Sea Rogue," do you really expect him to keep his word?

"ROOM: Slaughterhouse!"

Seeing Doflamingo suddenly attack, Law seemed to have anticipated it and used his Devil Fruit ability to swap his position with a reef.

The reef that had swapped positions with Law was instantly sliced ​​into several pieces the moment it appeared in front of Doflamingo, by the threads he wielded.

On the other side, Xiangzhi and Caesar, and Zoro and Monet also started fighting each other. What should have been a three-on-one situation has now turned into a 3v3.

"I only promised you that I would give up the title of 'Seven Warlords of the Sea,' but I never said I would let you leave."

"Luo, you don't naively think that I'd let someone who betrayed me live a good life in this world, do you?"

Doflamingo was quite familiar with Law's "Op-Op Fruit" ability, and the hemispherical space formed by Law's "ROOM" was also very limited. So, in just an instant, Doflamingo reappeared in front of Law.

And this time, before Law could even make the special hand gesture to use his ability, Doflamingo launched his attack first.

"Five colored thread!"

The hand, bent into a beast's claw, swung forward, and five almost translucent threads instantly tore towards Luo.

Unable to use his abilities in time, Law could only resort to drawing his sword for defense.

However, although the long sword in his hand blocked the fatal blow to his heart, it did not completely block Doflamingo's five-colored threads.

Almost instantly, a large amount of blood spurted from Luo's chest, leaving five deep wounds.

"ROOM·Baton!"

Seeing Law's hand gripping a long sword to resist his attack while the other hand gestured upwards as if he were about to use his ability, Doflamingo wore a mocking sneer.

"Luo, are you still the same as before, still not giving up? No matter where you run to, you can't escape my grasp."

Law was raised by the Donquixote Family from a young age, and no one understands Law's strength and personality better than Doflamingo.

So from the very beginning, he didn't take Luo seriously, convinced that he could completely dominate him.

However, seeing Doflamingo's cold smile, Law also smiled wryly, his lips stained with blood, and said, "Who told you I used my ability to escape? You're the one who's going to die, Doflamingo!"

The moment Law roared, Doflamingo's Observation Haki already sensed that something was wrong. However, before his body could react, four figures approaching him from behind simultaneously launched an attack from behind.

"Santo-ryu·Tiger Hunting!"

"Demon Wind Kick - First Meat!"

"Gas bomb!"

"Snow Dance - Eagle Hook!"

Almost the instant Doflamingo sensed something was wrong, fierce slashes, powerful kicks, deadly gas, and sharp, chilling claws enveloped him from all directions!

When Law used the "ROOM" ability earlier, it was clearly not to move himself to escape, but to move Zoro, Monet and the others who were fighting in other places to Doflamingo's back!

The initial negotiations and talks were just a smokescreen. Regardless of whether Doflamingo agreed to the conditions or not, Law would eventually release Caesar and Monet to complete the current plan.

Previously, Zoro was stopped by Monet, and Sanji was blocked by Caesar. Even though Doflamingo knew Law's abilities, he probably thought that with Monet and Caesar being two Logia-type Devil Fruit users, the Straw Hat Pirates' pirate hunter and cook would be easy targets.

However, he never expected that Caesar, his partner, and Monet, who had always been loyal to him, would choose to betray him!

None of the people present were weaklings, and the sneak attack was carried out completely unexpectedly by Doflamingo.

So at this moment, Doflamingo's body was instantly torn to pieces by various attacks!

However, as Doflamingo's body was enveloped by their attacks, Law, who had been beaming with satisfaction at getting his revenge, gradually froze on his face with a confident smile.

The reason was simple: when their attacks hit Doflamingo, not a single thread came out of his body; instead, it began to turn into a large number of threads that scattered on the ground.

"Fufufufufu, I told you long ago, Luo, your tricks are as naive as a child's in front of us."

Do you think I would walk right into your trap without any preparation?

Wearing a pink feather coat, cropped trousers, and pointed shoes, Doflamingo appeared from another direction, looking at Law's confident smile, clearly very pleased with himself.

Shadow Rider Threads, also one of Doflamingo's abilities, involves creating thin threads that coil and intertwine in mid-air to create puppet-like clones.

The puppets look exactly like the Devil Fruit user, like clones or doppelgangers, and Doflamingo can freely manipulate them to use any of his techniques.

Doflamingo isn't stupid; knowing there's a trap, he naturally wouldn't risk his life.

Doflamingo had anticipated that Law would pull a trick, but he hadn't expected that the play Law orchestrated would involve Caesar and Monet's betrayal.

Honestly, if it weren't for his "Shadow Rider" ability, Doflamingo might have really messed up in that last wave.

The betrayal of Caesar and Monet was far beyond Doflamingo's expectations. He still couldn't understand how Law and the Straw Hat Pirates, with their power, had the right to persuade Caesar and Monet to turn against him.

Doflamingo had a cooperative relationship with Caesar. If Caesar betrayed him, he would not only offend him, but also the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates. So Doflamingo really couldn't understand where Caesar got the confidence to betray him.

As for Monet's betrayal, Doflamingo was even more puzzled. Based on his understanding of Monet, the other party should have been one of his loyal followers; otherwise, Doflamingo would not have sent him to monitor Caesar.

Doflamingo hates betrayal the most, but now Law, Caesar, Monet and others have betrayed him one after another, which shows just how angry Doflamingo is right now.

Of course, while he was angry, Doflamingo still wanted to understand why Caesar and Monet had betrayed him. So, he glared at the two of them and said, "What benefits did Law give you that gave you the courage to betray me?"

Or is it that he still holds your hearts in his hands, and your previous actions were merely due to his threats?

It wasn't that Doflamingo was overconfident, but rather that he genuinely couldn't fathom the reasons behind Caesar and Monet's betrayal.

With his own money, power, and connections, what are Law and the Straw Hat crew compared to him? The Worst Generation? The Supernovas? Only those insignificant guys would take such things seriously. As for those who have a bit of influence on the high seas, who would care about these little brats?

"JOKER, this time you really can't blame me. A pirate crew like Trafalgar Law and the Straw Hat Pirates is not enough for me to break off our cooperation."
