Chapter 325: Deep Sea Communication! Shirahoshi's Longing and the Dancer's Defection

Tatsuya avoided the noisy crowd of pirates and gladiators in the waiting area, walking alone into a desolate, dim corner.

He reached into his coat and took out the communication snail that was faintly heating up.

Looking at this snail, he sighed helplessly.

In this underground space, there was simply no seawater to be found to activate it.

With no other choice, Tatsuya had to try to make do with what was available.

He took off the water bottle he was carrying, slowly poured out the fresh water inside, and carefully filled the snail's inner cavity.

As soon as it was full, the patterns on the snail's surface instantly glowed, and Shirahoshi's crisp voice, filled with anxiety and worry, immediately came from within:

"Lord Tatsuya! Can you hear me?"

Tatsuya raised his eyebrows in surprise, and a smile couldn't help but tug at the corner of his mouth:

"Ah, Shirahoshi. How amazing, it actually worked."

Far away in the deep-sea Fish-Man Island, Shirahoshi, upon hearing this familiar and steady voice, finally let her long-suspended heart settle.

She couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, her huge pink fish tail swaying happily in the clear seawater, and her voice involuntarily softened, revealing a deep sense of reliance:

"Great, Lord Tatsuya~ Shirahoshi was a bit..."

She had just wanted to pour out her longing, but she immediately remembered the important matter, and her tone became urgent instantly.

"Ah! That's right! There is something very important!"

Shirahoshi reported seriously that after the Straw Hat Pirates left Fish-Man Island, she had secretly dispatched deep-sea Sea Kings to monitor the movements of Totto Land in secret.

Just a short while ago, the Sea Kings sent back an emergency message.

A very powerful and oppressive aura had left the Totto Land waters and was currently approaching Dressrosa at full speed.

So she had hurriedly contacted Tatsuya to remind him to be extremely careful.

After listening to Shirahoshi's intelligence, Tatsuya raised his eyebrows, and a flash of realization crossed his deep eyes.

Big Mom's forces had intervened in the New World's conflict so quickly; it was mostly likely the work of that cunning guy, Doflamingo.

As a ruler of a nation, it was unlikely that the Four Emperors Big Mom would come to Dressrosa in person.

So, the one sent was likely one of the renowned Three Sweet Commanders under her command.

Tatsuya pondered silently in his heart.

With the serious business finished, Shirahoshi's voice on the other end of the snail instantly became bashful:

"Lord Tatsuya, the business is finished... Shirahoshi missed you so much~"

"Have you missed me while you've been away~"

Hearing this straightforward declaration of love, Tatsuya came back to his senses and, without a moment's hesitation, naturally replied that he had.

However, Shirahoshi puffed up her cute cheeks on the other end and huffed, exposing his lie:

"Hmph, Lord Tatsuya is a liar."

"It was clear that you could talk to Shirahoshi just by filling it with water."

"But you've been gone for so long and haven't taken the initiative to call Shirahoshi even once."

Facing Shirahoshi's coquettish behavior tinged with a bit of grievance, Tatsuya could only brazenly smile and pour out some incredibly sweet words to her.

These off-the-cuff sweet words instantly made Shirahoshi on the other end blush.

Her happy and joyful laughter came from the snail, as if all her grievances had vanished at this moment.

The two cherished the sweet moment on both ends of the snail and made a solemn promise that Tatsuya would definitely call her to report his safety often in the future, before Shirahoshi reluctantly ended this communication across the deep sea.

Tatsuya let out a long sigh of relief, flipped his wrist to pour out the fresh water from the snail, and then carefully placed it back into his bosom.

He lowered his head slightly, and a gentle curve that could not be concealed tugged at the corner of his mouth.

My wife is truly cute.

After gathering his thoughts, Tatsuya turned around and walked with long strides toward the exit of the colosseum.

Since the elite forces of a Four Emperors had approached this island, he would very much like to see for himself just how capable the so-called "Three Sweet Commanders" of the Big Mom Pirates were.

...

In an abandoned warehouse deep within the town, the armed lackeys of the Donquixote Family looked at Robin and Nami, who had suddenly pushed the door open, completely unaware of what kind of monsters they were facing.

They screamed recklessly, raised their weapons, and rushed up in a swarm.

Robin wore an elegant smile, calmly crossed her arms in front of her chest, and decisively activated the power of the Hana Hana no Mi.

"Cien Fleur."

Countless brilliant flower petals danced in mid-air, and instantly, countless slender yet powerful arms grew on the bodies of the charging lackeys.

Accompanied by a crisp sound of bones breaking that made one's scalp tingle, Robin didn't even blink, directly snapping the necks of half the enemies rushing at the front, their bodies falling to the ground one after another.

And Nami, standing on the other side, was even more composed.

She skillfully brandished the magical Weather Stick in her hand, and Futo behind her let out an excited roar.

"Thunderbolt!"

A dazzling, thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky.

The destructive, violent power of the thunder instantly struck the remaining lackeys, turning them into smoking charcoal and causing them to lose consciousness on the spot.

Violet, standing in the back, widened her beautiful eyes, deeply shocked by the terrifying strength of these two seemingly delicate women.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of the family's elite thugs had been wiped out.

After dealing with the small fry, Nami walked forward with a cold face.

She raised the Weather Stick, which was still flashing with dangerous electricity, and pointed it straight at Violet.

Her eyes were cold as she demanded to know her true identity and the real purpose of luring Sanji here.

She warned her unceremoniously that if she didn't tell the truth, she would leave her here to keep this pile of trash company.

However, at this tense moment, Sanji, who had fallen in a pool of blood, struggled to prop up his body with both hands.

He dragged his heavily injured body and unhesitatingly blocked the front of Violet.

Even though he had been beaten until his face was bruised and swollen, Sanji was still full of incurable chivalry:

"Nami-san!"

"Even if I've been deceived... I will never doubt a woman's tears!"

"She... definitely has her reasons!"

Looking at Sanji's battered and bruised appearance, yet still using his life to protect her, a monstrous wave surged in Violet's heart.

She recalled the Donquixote Family's brutal rule over Dressrosa over the years.

She recalled the humiliation and despair of being forced to join the family.

At this moment, Violet completely dropped all her disguises.

Two lines of clear tears slid down her cheeks, she took a deep breath, and chose to defect to the Straw Hat.

She revealed without reservation the true location of the SMILE underground factory that they had been desperately searching for.

It wasn't anywhere else; it was right directly beneath that Corrida Colosseum!

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the three Straw Hat members instantly lit up.

...

On Green Bit, an isolated island north of Dressrosa.

In the lush, towering primeval forest, the atmosphere was so oppressive it felt like it was about to solidify.

Doflamingo looked at Law's face opposite him, filled with hatred and ferocity, and couldn't help but look up and let out a harsh, cold laugh:

"Fufufufu... Law."

"Why are you looking at me with those eyes that want to kill?"

"You've given me quite a big surprise."

"Since it's a reunion after a long time, as your former superior, I naturally have to prepare a generous return gift for you."

"Fufufufu!"

"Donquixote Doflamingo!"

Facing the enemy who had ruined his entire life, Law could no longer maintain his usual composure.

He roared the other's name, violently drew his famous sword, and without hesitation, turned into a blur and charged forward.

The two instantly engaged in a fierce life-and-death battle between the golden beach and the giant plant forest.

Sword light and sharp threads constantly collided, erupting in deafening roars, and the surrounding towering giant trees collapsed one after another in the aftermath of this terror.

During the exchange, Doflamingo relied on his powerful strength and appeared at ease.

He constantly used vicious words to stimulate Law's nerves, and even deliberately and frequently brought up the scene of Corazon's tragic death back then, trying to disrupt Law's combat composure with this.

Touched to the most painful bottom line in his heart, Law's eyes instantly became bloodshot, like a crazed beast, and his angry roar resounded through the sky:

"I will kill you today!!"

Law swung his long sword, slashing down with all his might.

Doflamingo, however, just disdainfully raised his hand and used a tough thread wrapped in thick Armament Haki to steadily block the heavy, powerful blade.

He looked at Law's angry face and sneered with ruthless mockery:

"Fufufufu... How ridiculous!"

But just when the two were murderous and ready to unleash their ultimate moves for a final collision.

"Boom—rumble!"

Above the sky, a terrifying whistling sound like the end of the world suddenly came.

Both of them simultaneously felt an indescribable, fatal threat.

Looking up, they saw that above the firmament, a huge meteorite burning with raging flames was dragging a long trail of black smoke and falling fiercely toward the battlefield above their heads at a terrifying, shocking speed!

Facing this attack comparable to a natural disaster, Law stared with wide, shocked eyes.

And Doflamingo, who had been incomparably arrogant, also frowned violently.

He stared at the burning meteorite in the sky that was constantly magnifying, his eyes under his sunglasses becoming incomparably gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice:

"Marine?"
