Chapitre 167: Chapter 166
After the intense battle between Smoker and Vergo, Smoker managed to retrieve Law's heart, which had been taken earlier. Now, with his heart safely back in place, Law could finally fight Vergo without any constraints.
Law placed his heart back in his chest and said to Smoker, "Smoker, I get my heart back."
Vergo then realized that Smoker's earlier battle with him was just a distraction to retrieve Law's heart. No wonder Smoker had been using his smoke abilities meaninglessly.
"So that's what happened. When did you take action?" Vergo asked Smoker, looking at him lying on the ground.
"Just consider this as paying off a debt," Smoker replied to Law. "Finish him off quickly."
Witnessing this scene, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Even after two years, Smoker remained the Smoker who distinguished right from wrong and settled his debts. He had been saved by Law back in the cage, and now he was repaying the favor. When they meet again, there would be no need to hold back.
This was the right way for a Marine to behave, more trustworthy than those ungrateful people.
Law chuckled upon hearing Smoker's words. "So you really didn't want to owe a favor to a pirate."
"That kind of behavior is disgraceful for a Marine. It's a shame to face my subordinates," Smoker responded.
"But you did me a big favor," Law said, putting his hat back on. He then looked at Vergo with calmness and confidence. "It's over, Vergo...."
His tone was filled with indifference and self-assurance, making everyone who witnessed this scene realize that the current Law was no longer the helpless child from thirteen years ago. He had grown, become stronger, and was now capable of seeking revenge against enemies like Vergo and Doflamingo.
Doflamingo saw the image of Law and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Law, let me see how much you've grown after leaving me all these years. Do you really have the ability to seek revenge against me... Doflamingo licked his lips, watching the image with great interest.
Doflamingo was well aware of Vergo's strength. To become an Admiral without relying on Devil Fruit abilities, it demonstrated Vergo's personal strength.
If Law wanted revenge, he had to overcome Vergo first!
Upon hearing Law's harsh words, Vergo retorted, "Have you finally remembered the hierarchy? Brat."
"You can continue thinking that way. You guys won't stay in those positions forever. Do you hear me, Joker?"
At this moment, people noticed that Doflamingo had been observing the battle through the Den Den Mushi in Vergo's pocket
Law spoke to the other end of the Den Den Mushi, "Vergo is done for. You will lose your most important subordinate, Caesar will be taken down by the Straw Hat crew, which means you'll lose SAD."
"You didn't foresee this most miserable future because you were too arrogant! You can continue laughing smugly and planning your next move. But we won't act according to your expectations, so you won't be laughing for long."
Doflamingo burst into laughter upon hearing Law's confident words.
"Law, you're quite arrogant" Doflamingo's voice came through the Den Den Mushi.
At the same time, the Doflamingo in front of the image burst into laughter too. It seemed like he didn't take Law seriously at all. Retrieving his heart was just a minor victory, and he believed he had already won.
"Are you trying to provoke the Vergo in front of you? Do you remember what happened last time when you provoked Vergo? Do you still carry the trauma from that incident? Haha..."
Just as the words of the Doflamingo on the other end of the Den Den Mushi fell, Vergo, covered in full-body Haki, rushed towards Law. In response, Law unsheathed his sword and made a single slash.
In the next second, everyone in front of the image was shocked.
They saw that Vergo, who was completely covered in Haki, was cut in half by Law's slash.
Not only that, everything visible to the eye, from the laboratory in the Punk Hazard restricted zone to the mountains on Punk Hazard Island, was cut in half by this one slash.
The power of this attack was terrifying.
In an instant, the whole world trembled, and then there was a collective gasp.
Terrifying!
A group of Marines in Marineford all had serious expressions.
They didn't expect that Vergo, an Admiral, would be cut in half with just one slash from Law. Although Vergo was a Marine traitor and spy, his strength was beyond doubt.
Trafalgar D. Water Law, possessed such strength?!
And as Sengoku witnessed Vergo being split in half by Law's single slash, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, followed by a hint of regret. If only Rosinante was not dead back then, and if he had rescued Law from Doflamingo's clutches and brought him to the Marines for training, perhaps Law would have taken a completely different path. With such strength, if Law were a Marine instead of a pirate, it would have been a stroke of luck for the world.
Unfortunately, there are no "ifs."
But at this moment, just as Doflamingo was anticipating the scene of Vergo beating Law, his expression froze when he saw Vergo being taken down by Law with a single slash. Moreover, the power of that attack left him with a sinking feeling. He had underestimated Law.
In the span of thirteen years, the little brat from back then had grown to this level. No wonder Law had the confidence to seek revenge.
No wonder...
Doflamingo realized he needed to take this avenger more seriously. If he were to be outsmarted by Law, he might really fall into Law's hands.
The more surprised he was by Law's strength, the more he regretted not obtaining the Ope Ope no Mi back then, allowing Law to slip away right under his nose.
Law, is this your way of seeking revenge against me? Doflamingo thought with a stern face.
Things were already deviating from his expectations.
Law's strength had exceeded his predictions, the exposure of Punk Hazard and Caesar caught him off guard, and the revelation that Rosinante was Sengoku's adoptive grandson was also unexpected. The exposure of Vergo's identity and the events at Dressrosa eight years ago also be discovered...
So many unexpected events were unfolding during this live broadcast, and it was giving Doflamingo a headache. And what was even more troubling was that the exposure was just the first step. The real consequences would begin after the live broadcast ended.
At that time, even bigger troubles awaited him.
Doflamingo looked at the screen in mid-air with an extremely unpleasant expression. If his gaze could kill, he would have immediately killed the mastermind behind this event...
But there was nothing he could do. He had to figure out a way to fix the mess caused by this event.
"Damn it!!!"
...
Law's performance had attracted considerable attention worldwide, and the Emperors of the New World began to focus on this newcomer who had not yet entered the New World.
To them, these newcomers were fresh blood, and whoever could capture them would be the lucky one, just like capturing wild Pokémon.
After Law's one-slash defeat of Vergo, he seemed a bit dazed. Then came joy and calmness as he had finally avenged Corazon.
But this was just the first step. There was still Doflamingo to deal with.
Seeing the image of his future self defeating Vergo with a single slash, Law was even more confident about completing his revenge.
His eyes were filled with fiery determination. Doflamingo, wait for me. It won't be long before I come looking for you!
The images continued.
After dealing with Vergo, Law went to find Luffy. Meanwhile, Luffy had defeated Caesar, and the situation finally came to an end.
However, Monet, who was defeated, didn't die. Doflamingo contacted her and ordered her to detonate the bombs on Punk Hazard. After the explosion, only Caesar, who could withstand the poison gas, remained alive. On the other side, after bidding farewell to Vergo, a blast occurred in the room where Vergo was.
Vergo, one of the officers of the Donquixote Family, was killed.
In another scene, after being knocked down by Luffy, Caesar regained consciousness. He took out a heart, which was Smoker's heart given to him by Law. Then, holding a spike, he was about to stab the heart.
Everyone's hearts tightened at the sight. If the heart was pierced, he would definitely die.
Just as people were wondering if anyone could stop Caesar, he pierced the heart. However, to everyone's surprise, Smoker emerged unscathed, while Monet, who was about to detonate the bombs, coughed up blood.
The scene shifted, and people finally understood why. It turned out that when Law gave Caesar Smoker's heart, he had given Monet's heart to Caesar. Monet's heart was obtained when she and Law exchanged hearts. Law and Monet held each other hostage.
As a result, another officer of the Donquixote Family, Monet, died, and the bombs did not explode.
Seeing this scene, Doflamingo's face turned ashen. Because of Law, the Donquixote Family lost two members in Punk Hazard, and the losses were too great!
In the image, Doflamingo did not hear the sound of an explosion coming from the Den Den Mushi on the other end. He realized that Monet had failed and headed alone towards Punk Hazard.
However, the matter was not yet over. The backup that Doflamingo sent to support Caesar, Baby 5, and Buffalo, were also defeated and captured.
By the time Doflamingo arrived near Punk Hazard, all he saw was Baby 5 and Buffalo, their heads bound to a raft, and a Den Den Mushi with a familiar spotted hat on its head.
