High in the sky.

A massive burning meteor, like a divine punishment of the apocalypse, roared as it crashed towards the golden sands of Green Bit.

The terrifying wind pressure descending from the sky caused the surrounding towering trees, which had grown for centuries, to let out groans of being overburdened before it even touched the ground.

Then, they were directly uprooted by the violent airflow and swept into the air.

Law and Doflamingo, who were originally engaged in a life-and-death struggle at the junction of the primeval forest and the beach, faced this destructive strike that was like a natural disaster.

They had no choice but to stop their movements, temporarily putting aside their intent to kill each other.

Doflamingo looked up, his red sunglasses reflecting the falling meteor.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately waved his hands toward the sky, fingers splayed, as countless incredibly tough white threads gushed from his fingertips.

These threads quickly intertwined in mid-air, instantly releasing a massive web of strings large enough to cover the entire sky—"Spider's Web".

On the other side, Law also reacted with lightning speed, pressing one hand down forcefully.

"ROOM".

He quickly expanded a massive hemispherical space large enough to shroud the entire area—"ROOM".

He gripped the hilt of his nodachi, "kikoku," tightly with both hands, waiting in grim anticipation.

"Boom—!!!"

Accompanied by a deafening, earth-shattering roar.

The massive meteor crashed violently into Doflamingo's tough string web, and then met Law's incomparably sharp spatial slashes.

The enormous meteor from outer space was sliced alive into dozens of large pieces of burning rock in mid-air.

Law's gaze suddenly turned cold, and he jerked his long blade upward, letting out a low shout:

"Tact!"

The dozen or so burning boulders that were originally crashing toward Law's position under gravity instantly changed their trajectory under the control of spatial rules.

Like a violent meteor shower, they all whistled and smashed toward Doflamingo not far away.

Facing this insidious move that used his own strength against him, a vein pulsed on Doflamingo's forehead as he let out a cold snort.

With a slight movement of his fingertips, sharp threads sliced through the air, once again cutting the incoming burning boulders into even smaller fragments.

The unintercepted meteor fragments rained down on the vast forest and beach, instantly triggering a series of earth-shaking chain explosions.

Soaring flames and billowing thick smoke rose up.

In just a few seconds, the entire island of Green Bit became riddled with holes, and more than half of its landscape was completely destroyed by this inhuman power.

After a long time, the thick dust slowly dissipated under the blowing of the sea breeze.

The blind Admiral Fujitora was seen leaning on his ordinary Cane sword with both hands, standing calmly on a high and intact rock pillar.

The deadly meteor fragments around him were all forcefully repelled by the terrifying gravity field surrounding him the moment they fell, without harming him in the slightest.

In the nearby ruins, Doflamingo and Law each stood on an isolated piece of rock debris, warily watching this uninvited guest.

Fujitora kept his eyes closed, feeling the chaotic airflow around him, and spoke in a flat tone:

"Gentlemen, since you've made such a big scene, why don't you come with me?"

The veins on Doflamingo's cheeks pulsed wildly.

He gritted his teeth tightly, staring intently at Fujitora standing on high.

As a king who had struggled in the Underworld for many years, he was very clear in his heart.

The blind fellow before him, with his stubborn personality and his so-called "benevolence and justice," was definitely not a lapdog of the World Government that could be easily fooled.

If he allowed things to continue, this stubborn guy would definitely follow the clues and cause him trouble.

On the other side, Law's brow was also furrowed.

Facing a pincer attack from a current Admiral and a Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Reason told him that he no longer had any chance of killing Doflamingo here today.

The most urgent task now was to find a perfect opportunity to escape this deadly encirclement, meet up with the Straw Hat Captain, and discuss a new strategy.

...

Meanwhile, inside the waiting area of Dressrosa's Corrida Colosseum, it was a completely different scene.

The great pirate "The Drill" Piman was currently like a completely out-of-control raging bull, rampaging through the intricate corridors.

His eyes were bloodshot, and everywhere he went, walls shattered and stone pillars collapsed.

Deafening roars continuously erupted from his mouth, shouting that he would definitely make Garp's grandson pay in blood.

In another passage, "White Horse" Cavendish was not to be outdone.

He unleashed one sharp sword qi after another, swearing to tear that Straw Hat brat, who had stolen all his limelight and headlines, into pieces.

The contestants, who were originally fierce and sinister, were now all scared into fleeing in all directions by these two crazed powerhouses, leaving the entire waiting area in chaos.

In order not to expose his true identity prematurely, Luffy forced himself to suppress the urge to fight back.

He could only hold onto the mask on his face and flee frantically through the complex passages.

While scurrying through the crowd with his head down, he shouted explanations while sweating profusely:

"I told you, my name is Lucy! Lucy!"

"You two have the completely wrong person, this is so annoying!"

Seeing the two lunatics behind him getting closer and closer, Luffy, relying on his animalistic intuition, spotted a deserted, secluded corner ahead.

He bent his legs and, with a very smooth slide, slipped into a quiet little room with its door slightly ajar.

He quickly closed the door, finally succeeding in shaking off those two troublesome fellows outside.

"Whew... that was close, I almost got caught."

Luffy leaned against the back of the door and let out a long sigh of relief.

However, as soon as he turned around, before he could clearly see the room's furnishings, he collided squarely with a figure inside.

"Ouch!"

This room seemed to be a storage room for gladiator supplies and bento boxes.

The other person was wearing a rather revealing gold metal bikini armor, with a bright red cloak draped behind her.

Hit by this sudden and violent impact, the female gladiator let out a cry of pain and stepped back unsteadily.

The heavy ancient Roman-style helmet she was wearing fell onto the hard floor with a "clang."

Instantly, a head of pink hair as brilliant as cherry blossoms was revealed, along with an exquisite and beautiful face.

Luffy fell onto his butt on the ground.

He rubbed his sore head and looked up, his clear eyes staring at the other person's face for a full three seconds.

Suddenly, as if he had discovered a new continent, Luffy showed an exaggerated expression of extreme shock and confusion.

He pointed his finger at the girl before him and shouted loudly:

"Eh?! Nami?!"

"How did you get in here too!"

"When did you dye your hair pink?!"

"And why are you dressed in such a strange way!"

The girl, who had been mysteriously knocked down and forcibly called "Nami," now had black lines all over her face.

She stood up from the ground, rubbed her shoulder, and took a step back warily.

Then she bent down to pick up the helmet from the floor and retorted irritably:

"I don't know what nonsense you're talking about, and my name isn't Nami."

"Listen up, I am the gladiator Rebecca!"

However, Luffy didn't care at all about his mistake in identification.

Because in the next second, his gaze was instantly and firmly attracted by the luxurious bento box in Rebecca's hand, which was emitting an enticing aroma.

"Gurgle—"

As if responding to its owner's gaze, Luffy's stomach let out a rumble in perfect cooperation.

Looking at Luffy's comical appearance as he stared longingly at the food, with saliva almost dripping out.

Rebecca, who was originally full of wariness, froze for a moment, then couldn't help but let out a "pfft" and a light laugh.

She looked at the strange guy in front of her wearing a funny fake beard, and the wariness in her eyes lessened slightly.

She generously handed over the luxurious bento in her hand:

"You're also a contestant here for the gladiator competition, right?"

"If you don't mind, you can have this bento."

"Anyway, once we step onto that cruel arena, we could lose our lives at any time before eating our next meal."

Luffy's eyes instantly lit up, as if he had seen a peerless treasure.

He had no idea what "politeness" meant; he grabbed the heavy bento box, opened the lid without hesitation, and stuffed a large meatball into his mouth.

As he chewed with his cheeks bulging, he gave a thumbs-up and praised unclearly but gratefully:

"Mmm! So delicious!"

"Thank you! Pink-haired Nami! You're a great person!"

Hearing this name, an anger vein popped on Rebecca's forehead again, just after she had started to feel a bit of goodwill toward him.

Clenching her fists, she shouted in exasperation:

"I told you, my name is Rebecca!"

"Not Nami, you idiot!"
