"Kill them! For justice!" The Marines' shouts followed one another, as if encouraging each other not to fear the pirates.
Four hungry wolves invaded a flock of sheep. It was like an ant trying to shake a tree. Doflamingo and his men were like four hungry wolves. They advanced upon the flock of sheep, slaughtering them wherever they found them. It was a bloodbath.
"Sticky Mucus Showers! Sticky Mucus Shells!" Trebol seized the situation and launched a large-scale bombardment. A large number of ships lost their ability to move due to this attack. Even if they didn't die, they would be extremely nauseated.
"Half-Moon Funeral! My blade has been thirsty for a long time." Diamante was not willing to be left behind and, with his sword energy, cut down a large number of Marines.
Pica was more impulsive. His attacks were simple and direct. He killed an enemy with a punch and had a great time. Pica did not yet have the Ishi Ishi no Mi (Stone-Stone Fruit), so he couldn't perform large-scale attacks. Doflamingo was the same as Pica, without area-of-effect attacks, except for Conqueror's Haki, of course.
Doflamingo rushed towards Colonel Vimos on the main ship, but the Marines wouldn't let him pass and advanced one by one to their deaths. Colonel Vimos was not in a hurry and silently watched Doflamingo being surrounded from the rear. He had long understood Doflamingo's strength and knew he was no match for him. Now he was sending these naval cannon fodder to absorb the pressure and weaken the opponent's strength. When Doflamingo was distracted, he would take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and take him down. Not even Vice Admiral Tsuru would need to take credit in the future. Hehe, this time the credit would be his. Colonel Vimos's wish was fulfilled.
As for those Marines, they were all good. Sacrifice for justice was inevitable. "I, Vimos, will remember you later. You are my good brothers who helped me rise in the military ranks," and he had a clear conscience.
Doflamingo and the Marines had no idea what was going on in Colonel Vimos's mind and were fighting fiercely. When one fell, another took his place, and the number of people around him did not decrease at all.
Doflamingo dodged a Marine's attack and killed another with a hammer. The impatience on his face became increasingly intense. "You are like flies, buzzing around, so annoying, Marines."
"Doflamingo, your time to die has come! Prepare to die and wait to go to jail and spit out filthy wine!" The Marines were not scared at all and retorted.
"Heh heh heh heh, is that so? Then you have to show some skill." Doflamingo smiled and was very happy.
The Marine officers didn't care about Doflamingo. In their opinion, he was obviously weak, so they advanced one by one to capture him. As soon as the Marine advanced, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Doflamingo and spread in all directions. The domineering aura became increasingly intense. The Marines fell one by one involuntarily, their eyes rolled back, and they became indifferent to the world. It was truly a powerful weapon to eliminate small fry.
Colonel Vimos, in the rear, was horrified to see such a scene. As a naval admiral of the Grand Line, he also had some experience. He murmured: "This is Conqueror's Haki? What an incredible aura." Vimos came to his senses and knew that this time he had to fight. All his plans were ruined by Conqueror's Haki. He took the opportunity to tell the aide next to him: "Quickly notify Vice Admiral Tsuru and ask when she will arrive. We can't wait any longer. If she doesn't come, we will be annihilated." After that, he immediately attacked Doflamingo, leaving the aide alone to report.
"Pulul Pulul." "Vice Admiral Tsuru? We are Colonel Vimos's fleet. We are fighting fiercely against the Donquixote Pirates in the waters of Jaya Island. We can no longer resist," the aide shouted impatiently. Upon hearing this, she snatched the Den Den Mushi from the female soldier and said to the aide on the other end of the line: "Marine, wait a moment, we will arrive soon. You are doing great for justice."
The battle between Doflamingo and Vimos was fierce, but it was a unilateral battle. Anyone with a keen eye could see that Colonel Vimos's offensive was weakening. Doflamingo decided to fight quickly and decisively, with no intention of prolonging things. He had just used his Observation Haki to overhear the conversation between Vice Admiral Tsuru and her aide, and knew that the troublesome old woman Tsuru was about to arrive. He no longer held back his strength, and with all his might, Doflamingo charged towards Vimos with his Gatling String.
"Armament Haki: Hardening!" Vimos activated Armament Haki for defense.
"Go to hell, Marines! Strengthen your Armament Haki and attack with full force!" Doflamingo wasted no more time and punched Vimos's heart with all his might.
Vimos crossed his hands to block the center of his chest, his face fierce. "If I can't stop him, I die," Colonel Vimos thought.
"This punch cost me, Doflamingo, more than ten years of hard work. Can you block it?"
Doflamingo shouted, and his other hand also didn't stay idle, seizing the moment to attack Vimos's abdomen.
"Tekkai!"
"Let's see what's stronger, your Tekkai or my fist."
The Armament Haki-clad fist struck Vimos's abdomen with a strong gust of wind. This terrifying power immediately made Colonel Vimos's eyes roll back, spit blood, and fall to the ground. "Sure enough, this is a real Tekkai?" Doflamingo suddenly realized something and was about to step forward to deal with the Marine when he was hit by a strong flying kick. Vice Admiral Tsuru shot through the air, and her long-distance Rankyaku interrupted Doflamingo's next move.
"Hello, hello, hello, old woman, it's you again. I was about to send him to justice." Doflamingo dodged the attack with a smile, and Tsuru took the opportunity to board the warship.
Vice Admiral Tsuru initiated a confrontation with Doflamingo. She saw the miserable situation on the ship, frowned, glanced at it, and looked no more. She could only silently console herself in her heart, saying that "you did a good job for the justice of the Marine and that your sacrifice will be rewarded."
"Doflamingo, you went too far! You massacred so many Marines! No one can save you today. I, Tsuru, said that!" Vice Admiral Tsuru was also very irritated, and her tone was full of murderous intent.
"Heh heh heh heh, come on then!" Doflamingo was not willing to be left behind. The battle between the two men officially began for the first time.
"Soru!"
Tsuru wanted to defeat Doflamingo with all her might. As long as she touched Doflamingo to activate her Woshu Woshu no Mi (Wash-Wash Fruit) ability, the final blow would be struck. Some Devil Fruits were so unreasonable, and the Woshu Woshu no Mi was one of them.
"How can it be as you wish?" Doflamingo was not foolish and moved quickly to shake off Tsuru's attack. His two fists, covered with Armament Haki, also attacked Tsuru.
"Watch me break your head with a powerful hand and then use my deliberate punch to deal 100% real damage. Let's see if you can resist," Doflamingo thought.
As expected of a Marine Vice Admiral, she was extremely powerful. She dodged Doflamingo's attacks with ease and even returned some finger attacks towards Doflamingo's ribs. Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Doflamingo quickly used Armament Haki to cover the attacked area and block the damage. In a hurry, the winner immediately became evident. The burning pain in his ribs caused Doflamingo a small loss.
Doflamingo, who didn't retreat and was about to launch another attack, suddenly heard his men shouting. "Young Master, it's time!" It turned out that Cricket had discovered the Knock-Up Stream.
Business was more important. Doflamingo had no intention of fighting Tsuru. His current strength was still far inferior to Tsuru's. He might even be able to hold his own for the first few dozen rounds, but things would certainly worsen later.
"Trebol, Diamante, come help me quickly, get rid of them fast, and prepare to retreat!"
Hearing the Young Master's words, Trebol and Diamante didn't dare to delay and moved towards Doflamingo. Seeing Doflamingo trying to escape, she couldn't agree to that and approached him again.
"Sticky Cannon" and "Half Moon Funeral" were the two moves that attacked Tsuru again. Tsuru had to dodge. The Mucus Fruit was truly disgusting, similar to snot. Tsuru definitely didn't want to get stuck with that kind of thing. Doflamingo took the opportunity to distance himself from Tsuru and quickly returned to the ship, where he saw that the anchor had been removed and the ship could sail smoothly.
The three people on the other warships also quickly returned to the ship, turning their backs on the Marine. The Marine suffered heavy casualties and was defenseless. Looking at Doflamingo who had broken through the encirclement, the warship Vice Admiral Tsuru was on was now in a terrible state. Everyone was unconscious, and there was no one available. She couldn't catch him immediately, and Geppo couldn't sustain her for long enough to reach Doflamingo and the others.
"Vice Admiral Tsuru, we've arrived!" Just as she was in despair, her fleet finally arrived. "I can't let you escape, Doflamingo!" Tsuru secretly decided to "follow Doflamingo and the others."
