"What if I insist on seeing him?" Boa Python said coldly.
A dark and terrifying pressure spread outward from him toward Doflamingo.
His eyes had already transford into the vertical pupils of a serpent.
The mont those snake-like eyes locked onto him, even soone like Doflamingo, who had weathered countless storms, felt a chill spread across his body.
It was like an ordinary person being stared down by a giant python.
"As the master of this place," Doflamingo said coldly, "I cannot allow a distinguished guest to be disturbed by outsiders."
"If you want to see him…"
"Then you'll have to defeat first."
No matter what, Doflamingo was still one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
The Young Master of the Donquixote Family.
The king of Dressrosa.
In a situation like this, there was no way he could show weakness.
Besides, after surviving through all the storms and bloodshed of the New World, Doflamingo was not soone who could be frightened so easily.
"That's exactly what I was planning," Boa Python sneered.
"Even if you hadn't said it, I was already going to crush you."
"You've got more backbone than I expected."
"But people with backbone…"
"Usually die the fastest."
"I just hope you won't disappoint ."
"Don't collapse after one hit like those trash over there."
Hearing that, and seeing the unconscious Law and the others lying around the battlefield, Doflamingo's gaze sharpened.
"Don't worry," he replied coldly.
"I won't disappoint you."
"But you should worry about yourself instead."
"As one of the Beasts Pirates' Three Calamities, if you end up losing here…"
"That would be quite embarrassing."
"I'll make you understand," Boa Python laughed coldly, "that the Beasts Pirates and your so-called Seven Warlords exist on entirely different levels."
The two n stared directly at each other.
The atmosphere around them tightened to the extre.
And at that mont—
The ground suddenly began to rise.
A massive stone figure erged from the earth itself.
"Young Master!"
"Law! Lao G!"
"Who did this to you?!"
"Anyone who harms the Family is unforgivable!"
Pica had arrived.
After respectfully greeting Doflamingo, he imdiately noticed the injured Law and the others.
Rage instantly appeared on his face.
"Hahahaha! Pica!" Boa Python burst into mocking laughter.
"Your voice is still as ridiculous as ever."
"The one who hurt them was ."
"So what are you going to do about it?"
"You…!"
Pica's expression twisted with fury.
"Young Master, leave him to !"
"I absolutely won't forgive anyone who dares harm the Family!"
Pica hated nothing more than people mocking his voice.
And now, the sa person had also injured his comrades.
"Pica," Doflamingo said coldly.
"Yes, Young Master!" Pica imdiately responded, though his furious eyes remained locked on Boa Python.
He was only waiting for Doflamingo's order before tearing the man apart.
"Take Law and the others away from here," Doflamingo ordered.
"He's mine."
Pica was extrely powerful.
Within the Donquixote Family, aside from Doflamingo himself, he was unquestionably the strongest executive.
His Stone-Stone Fruit allowed him to rge with stone itself, even controlling the massive structures throughout Dressrosa to attack his enemies.
Its destructive power was terrifying.
Most importantly, as long as he hid within the stone, ordinary opponents could hardly touch him.
However, against truly powerful experts—especially those with exceptional Observation Haki—his location could still be detected.
And once Pica fully unleashed his power, the scale of destruction would beco enormous.
There was even a chance the entire Dressrosa kingdom would be thrown into chaos.
Although unwilling, Pica still obeyed Doflamingo's order.
And he also understood sothing clearly—
As long as Law and the others remained here, Doflamingo would not be able to fight freely.
So he imdiately rged into the stone and used his powers to transport Law and the others away.
"Well then," Boa Python said with a grin once the injured were gone.
"Now you can finally fight seriously, right?"
"Otherwise, if you lose later and start making excuses about not being able to go all out because your subordinates were nearby…"
"That'd be pretty pathetic."
Boa Python never attempted to stop Pica from taking the wounded away.
In truth, he simply didn't care about Law and the others.
The only person here worth his attention was Doflamingo.
Or rather—
Within the entire Donquixote Family, the only one who truly interested him was Doflamingo alone.
Even though Boa Python constantly spoke with disdain, he understood very well that Doflamingo had not reached his current position through luck alone.
A man who could dominate both the underworld and the surface world…
A man who had beco one of the Seven Warlords…
Naturally possessed real ability.
So while he looked down on Doflamingo outwardly, inwardly he had already beco cautious.
Even a lion hunting rabbits would use its full strength.
Otherwise, overturning in a gutter would be truly humiliating.
"Fufufufu… I really should thank you," Doflamingo laughed.
"You gave ti to move the injured."
"No need to thank ," Boa Python replied with a cold smile.
"I simply want this fight to beco more enjoyable."
"I hope you won't disappoint ."
Doflamingo laughed as well.
And then—
In the very next instant—
Both n exploded forward simultaneously.
Two pitch-black fists coated in Armant Haki slamd into each other violently.
BOOM!
The collision caused the surrounding air itself to tremble violently.
Black lightning even began crackling around their fists.
