The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

In an instant, a nearly transparent thin thread shot out from each of Doflamingo's five fingers.

The jet-black hand, shaped like a beast's claw, fiercely grabbed at the five threads towards Luo!

The sharp, piano-string-like tips of the cleaving threads also exuded a strong Armament Haki aura!

"So, today will be your swan song!!"

Luo's face was cold as he covered the Ghost Cry with a dark green light that crackled with arcs of electricity.

"High-frequency surgical scalpel!!"

The high-frequency electric shock generated by the Op-Op Fruit wrapped around the demon sword "Kikoku".

"Hiss!!"

Upon first contact, the multicolored, black-tipped line, a dazzling black, was instantly cleaved into several pieces by Luo!

This is achieved by using a high-frequency, high-voltage current wrapped around the tip of the blade to heat the tissue upon contact with the opponent's body, thereby cutting the target into several pieces.

An opponent struck by this attack will be unable to reassemble their body for several minutes, regardless of how they react or even if they use their Devil Fruit powers.

If the human body can achieve this level, then a few mere lines are even more impressive.

"Strike the string!!"

Seeing that Law had easily deflected his attack, Doflamingo continued to flick several balls of thread at Law with his fingers.

It was enveloped in a domineering, jet-black aura; a single strike could easily shatter a person's bones!

"Injection SHOOT!!"

The sniping technique he learned from Claude was to use the flashing tip of the blade to precisely avoid the bullets one by one.

"They're already fighting?!"

Luffy and the others, who were laughing at Pica's laughter, immediately stood up straight when they heard the clanging sounds of battle.

They wanted to help, but were afraid of disturbing Traman's fight.

So they set their sights on Pica, whom they had just seen.

"Where did they go? That shrill-voiced stone man from earlier?"

Just as Luffy was about to activate his Observation Haki, the stone ground beneath his feet suddenly began to tremble.

"Buta Stone!!"

The laughable sound rang in their ears again, and then countless huge and sharp stone pillars suddenly shot out from the ground, hurtling towards the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Three Swords Style·Black Rope·Big Tornado!!"

It was even more ferocious and widespread than a tornado's attack, like a black dragon spinning and slashing, scraping all the protruding rocks into fragments!

"Hiding inside the rocks?!"

Zoro keenly sensed Pica's location.

"Three-Sword Style: Yasha Crow!!"

The three swords spun rapidly in the air, their slashes resembling crow claw marks landing on the nearby stone wall in an instant.

"Pikakakakaka!!"

The sharp, piercing laughter was incredibly irritating.

"The end of your Straw Hat Pirates is today."

As soon as Pica finished speaking, a more intense tremor, even more pronounced than before, erupted beneath everyone's feet.

"What's going on?!"

Not just on the King's Heights.

The tremor also radiated from the surrounding towns towards the entire island.

After feeling unsteady on their feet, the island's inhabitants were all discussing the matter in a panic.

Until~~~

A shadow fell overhead.

"What is that?!"

Everyone instinctively looked up and saw a scene that left them speechless.

At the same moment, at the very top of the King's Heights.

"Even if Pica doesn't summon me, I'm still coming here to settle the score with Doflamingo!!"

A woman dressed in a crimson maid outfit, with a cigarette dangling from her mouth, stood on the back of a man flying through the air, grumbling indignantly.

"I was needed, I was proposed to, but that bastard Doflamingo killed my fiancé..."

When talking about these sad things, Baby5 burst into tears.

"That's clearly a scammer..."

Beneath her, a hair-and-shoelace propeller was spinning, and Buffalo, struggling to maintain his balance, stood there speechlessly.

This baby is good, but when faced with requests from others, she simply doesn't know how to refuse.

Every time, she would blush and say, "Am I needed?" and then honestly agree to the other person's request, which often led her to be deceived.

They now owe a debt of up to 9800 million Berries and have subscribed to as many as 50 newspapers.

What's even worse is that quite a few scumbags have started targeting her, intending to seduce her.

Fortunately, Doflamingo stopped them in time and eliminated them.

Instead of being grateful, this silly girl got angry, which was really...

Buffalo shook his head silently.

Then, he glanced down and saw the scene below, and was slightly taken aback, his face turning to shock.

"that is……"

In his field of vision, he saw an extremely large stone giant slowly protruding outward from the massive rock wall of the King's Highlands.

"Is that... Lady Pica?!"

"Judging from his abilities and his appearance, he must be Lord Pica!!"

"Why did he suddenly unleash such immense power? Has something unexpected happened to (Qian Hao Zhao)?!"

"I don't know, but I think I felt a blue ball of light pass by me earlier... Is there any connection between these two things?!"

"Is Lord Doflamingo alright?!"

Not only were Buffalo shocked, but a group of residents of Dressrosa were also discussing the matter among themselves.

Meanwhile, inside a sunflower field surrounded by flowers.

"What happened?! How could Pica suddenly transform into a stone giant?!"

A toy soldier, dressed in a red suit, wearing a cylindrical black hat, and missing a leg, was carrying a gun and exclaimed in surprise.

"And that blue spherical spread just now... Something must have happened at King's Heights!!"

The toy soldier made this judgment in his mind, and then he saw rows of stone pillars shooting into the sky and crashing down toward the King's Highlands.

Several figures stood atop those stone pillars.

"Diamanti, Torrepol, Guradius, Señor, Machabais... they're all high-ranking members of the Don Quixote family! Miao!"

"So many high-ranking officials rushed to the King's Heights via the Pica Pillars; something extraordinary must have happened there!!"

~~~~~~~~~

[Thank you so much to '上善若水' for another 20,000 points!! Both '乌鸦狗头' and '上善若水' have donated over 70,000 points, that's truly generous!! You guys are awesome!!]

437 Ships from Wano Country, full firepower, officially begin the war!!! A glimmer of hope!!

Even the soldier with the toy-like face couldn't suppress his curiosity.

He was eager to go and see for himself.

But~~~

He turned around and looked back at the fourteen-year-old girl with long pink hair in the flower bushes. She was practicing her sword diligently, her palms blistered and bleeding, but she didn't utter a sound.

He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh softly.

He can't leave here yet!

On the other side, above the King's Highlands.

"Looks like everyone's here."

Looking at the various people dressed up on the surrounding stone pillars, Sanji lit another cigarette as usual before battle.

"They must be the Don Quixote family's executives, right?!"

Usopp's gaze swept over the figures on the stone pillars, as well as the strange pair of man and woman who flew in mid-air to arrive.

"One, two, three, four... including the man and woman in mid-air, there are ten people in total."

Nami also counted the number of people and then looked at the candidates on her side.

Then, quite naturally, he took a step back.

"This battlefield is now in your hands!!"

She smiled and waved to the crowd, "I'll go and clear out the treasure vault inventory for you all first!!"

"Hey Hey hey!!"

Usopp immediately objected, "Are you trying to desert?!"

"Who said that?! I'm doing this to save time!!"

Nami declared confidently, "And I trust you guys; you can take care of these guys in front of you quickly!!"

"Hey~ Go ahead and don't worry, Nami!!"

Sanji, his eyes gleaming, was doing the wave-like dance moves, shouting, "Leave this to me!!"

"We will definitely take care of the remaining eight people quickly, no problem at all!!"

He patted his chest there to express his opinion.

"Eight people???"

Chopper tilted his head and carefully checked the number of people on the other side.

837 then asked with some confusion, "Aren't there ten people on the other side?"

"Even if you include the screaming stone man who ran into the rock, there should be eleven people, right?"

You don't understand~~

Facing Chopper, Sanji quickly switched gears again, his face serious as he said:

“I don’t kick women, so I don’t include them.”

The only two women present were Baby5 on Buffalo's body and Jora, dressed in an artistic style, on the stone pillar.

"Is that so?"

Chopper nodded thoughtfully, then counted on his little hooves.

"It's still not right?"

He realized something was wrong again, and mumbled in confusion:

"Aren't there three girls? Ten minus three should be seven, right?"

"Three girls??"

Sanji was slightly taken aback, as he clearly only saw Jora and Baby 5.

"Look, aren't they..."

Chopper's little hooves touched Jora and Baby 5 one by one, and then...

It then landed on Deringer.

"He's not a girl..."
