Chapter 56: Nami's First Battle, Trafalgar Law Gets Instantly Defeated
Sengoku came quickly and left just as quickly.
It was as if spending another moment with this scum of the sea would make him vomit.
After the meeting ended, the Seven Warlords didn't linger either.
Link stood up, looked at Doflamingo across the table, and sneered, "You were lucky. You won't be so fortunate next time."
A vein popped on Doflamingo's forehead, and he grinned menacingly, his voice low. "You've got a lot of nerve, you little brat!"
"If you're not happy about it, we can have a go after the war."
Link's smile was playful. "I hope you have the courage to talk to me like that then."
With that, Link left the meeting hall.
Doflamingo didn't make a move. He had also sensed the energy within Link's body.
To be able to rise by stepping on Crocodile and Gekko Moriah—two individuals from the same era as him, who had become famous earlier and had only left the New World after failing to challenge the current Four Emperors—Link indeed possessed the strength of a Royal Warlord.
Doflamingo wasn't confident he could take Link down, nor had he gathered any intelligence on him.
As such, starting a fight with Link in Mary Geoise would be disadvantageous and could make him a laughingstock for those Celestial Dragons.
Doflamingo wasn't afraid of losing, but he wouldn't let those guys who refused to return see him as a joke.
However, from this day on, Doflamingo and Link were officially enemies.
After the war, Doflamingo would definitely find an opportunity to repay Link.
Of course, that was just Doflamingo's current thought.
While Link was arriving in Mary Geoise, Kalifa and the girls also began their operation.
On a certain island in the lawless zone of the Sabaody Archipelago, the Heart Pirates, who were waiting for their submarine's coating to be completed, slowly emerged from a tavern, preparing to stroll around other areas and relax.
But just as they passed an open area, they saw three beautiful young women walking towards them.
The three young women appeared to be of similar age, but their hair and eye colors were all different.
"So... so beautiful!"
"So cute, the blue-haired one is my type."
"I like the one with the short orange hair!"
Looking at the three beautiful young women ahead, the members of the Heart Pirates all had hearts in their eyes.
Only Trafalgar Law, carrying his Kikoku sword, frowned and quickly scolded them, "Fools, snap out of it! Those three women are not to be trifled with."
Hearing this, the members of the Heart Pirates snapped back to their senses as if they had just realized something.
Shachi pointed ahead and said, "Captain, why is that pink-haired woman flying? Could it be that Golden Lion is dead and the Paramecia-type Float-Float Fruit has been eaten?"
"I don't know. Maybe, maybe not!"
Trafalgar Law's face was grim as he warned, "In any case, don't look at them with disrespectful eyes. In this situation, it's better to avoid trouble."
Unfortunately, the thing Trafalgar Law least wanted to happen, happened.
"You're the Heart Pirates, right?"
"Mmm, that person is the Surgeon of Death, Trafalgar Law."
Nami exchanged a few words with Vivi, then took out a bounty poster from her pocket. After comparing it, she grinned. "That's right, he's the person Link is looking for. The Paramecia-type..."
"Op-Op Fruit user."
Hearing this, Trafalgar Law didn't hesitate for a moment, directly raising his hand to create a hemispherical dome of light:
"ROOM—"
The dome instantly expanded, turning a space of several hundred meters in radius into a domain exclusive to the Op-Op Fruit.
Swish—
As soon as the surgical domain was formed, Trafalgar Law drew his Kikoku and, ignoring hardness, mass, and distance, sliced Nami's and Vivi's bodies in half at the waist.
The sneak attack was successful, yet Trafalgar Law's expression changed.
Before he could use his scalpel to scramble Nami's and Vivi's bodies, he saw the two women's bodies turn into lightning and sand, then reassemble.
As for Perona, who was beside them, she was completely unaffected.
"Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit..."
Large beads of cold sweat instantly appeared on Trafalgar Law's face. He had lost his earlier composure and quickly shouted, "Everyone, split up and run! Don't look back!"
After speaking, Trafalgar Law increased his stamina output, expanding the surgical domain's space more than tenfold, covering a range of several thousand meters.
Immediately, all members of the Heart Pirates vanished into thin air.
"No wonder Link values this Devil Fruit so much. It turns out to have spatial abilities like Nojiko's."
Nami said with a smile, "That slash was very impressive, but unfortunately, you ran into me!"
As her voice fell, Nami transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared.
Vivi also turned to sand and scattered with the wind.
Only Perona, with her soul leaving her body, chose to fly into an air door that appeared out of nowhere...
"Fifty Million Volt Discharge!"
Just as Trafalgar Law appeared several thousand meters away, he saw the orange-haired girl appear in the air in front of him.
Half of her body crackling with blue-white electricity, Nami unleashed a massive number of lightning snakes towards Trafalgar Law.
Just as the lightning snakes were about to engulf Trafalgar Law, his figure vanished into thin air again.
Nami teleported in pursuit as well.
But the next second, Nami's face was stunned for a few seconds.
She had teleported behind Trafalgar Law, preparing to ambush him, but suddenly found herself in an empty, deserted area.
"I see, so you teleported me."
Nami immediately understood and teleported in pursuit again.
Thus, Nami and Trafalgar Law began a game of cat and mouse.
Soon, Trafalgar Law's stamina was running low.
Each time he teleported to the edge of the surgical domain, he had to create a new hemispherical dome, which consumed a great deal of stamina.
Teleporting a powerful person within the surgical domain also consumed a significant amount of stamina.
Trafalgar Law, who only had the constitution of an ordinary person, simply couldn't withstand such consumption.
Entering a weakened state, he was quickly caught by Nami, who had adapted to the teleportation and found a flaw.
Nami teleported continuously, not giving Trafalgar Law a chance to lock onto her for teleportation.
"Judgment of God—"
After disrupting Trafalgar Law's spatial perception, Nami suddenly appeared a few meters in front of him. Her slender arm transformed into a giant blue-white pillar of light, and at a speed of 1/1000th of a second, it engulfed Trafalgar Law, who had been using his spatial perception to find Nami and had forgotten to look ahead with his own eyes.
Struck by the giant pillar of lightning, Trafalgar Law's body convulsed within the sea of thunder, unable to even scream.
As the pillar of lightning passed through him, it blasted and broke a small mangrove tree several hundred meters away.
His body covered in electrical burns and emitting wisps of white smoke, Trafalgar Law's eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness.
Struck by just one move, Trafalgar Law was instantly defeated.
The power of the Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit against those without Haki defense was like a dimensional takedown.
If it weren't for the Paramecia-type Op-Op Fruit being the ultimate fruit with spatial abilities, and Nami not having mastered Haki to resist the teleportation of the surgical domain, Trafalgar Law would have been defeated by that first discharge.
