This punch was forged from the Busōshoku Haki (Armant Haki) Lance had scavenged after devouring many of the Donquixote Family officers.
Each officer of the Donquixote Family had strength equivalent to a Marine Rear Admiral or even Vice Admiral. And with all the other New World elites Lance had devoured, his Busōshoku Haki had reached a terrifying level!
"So fast!"
Doflamingo was caught off guard seeing Lance suddenly appear before him. That jet-black fist growing larger in his eyes made his heart jolt.
But he quickly composed himself.
"Think you can hit ? Keep dreaming!"
A smirk crept across Doflamingo's face as a formless pressure suddenly exploded outward from him—spreading like a shockwave!
Lance's pupils contracted sharply. His mind was struck by a violent ntal impact.
Haōshoku Haki (Conqueror's Haki)!
Doflamingo possessed the traits of a true king—and this Haki was proof.
It was thanks to his Haōshoku Haki that Doflamingo had, even as a child, beco king over Trebol, Pica, Vergo, and Diamante. They had followed him ever since.
Squelch!
In that split second Lance was stunned, the Araumi Shiroito (White Wave of Desolation) caught up and pierced through his heart!
"Feel that?! That's why I stand above everyone else—why I rule an entire nation!"
"This is the power of a king! A gift only those born to lead possess—Haōshoku Haki!"
"And you? You're just a cocky hillbilly who stumbled on so power and thought you could challenge ?"
"All your freakish monsters are gone. Let's see what trick you'll pull now—your weird substitution crap won't help you this ti!"
Doflamingo roared, controlling thick threads to entangle Lance's body, and without hesitation, began to crush him!
Lance's body was imdiately pulverized—blood gushing from his mouth!
"Ahahahaha!!"
"Die! Die! Just DIE already!!"
Not wanting a repeat of earlier, Doflamingo manipulated the threads to continue violently stabbing Lance's corpse—piercing through his body and head with no rcy, leaving not a trace of life!
"Is he finally dead?"
Violet watched as Lance was reduced to a mutilated pile of flesh by Doflamingo's relentless assault. His face was unrecognizable.
And with that, the last shred of hope in Violet's heart crumbled.
Once part of Dressrosa's royal family, Violet had been forced to submit to Doflamingo to protect her father's life. With the power of the Gaze-Gaze Fruit, she had great value to him.
She had hoped Lance's appearance might change Dressrosa's fate—defeat the tyrant who had stolen the country and bring him to justice…
But now, seeing this scene, Violet's heart went cold. The final ember of hope was extinguished.
Dressrosa was lost. It would never return to the days of light and joy.
Now, it would remain under Doflamingo's cruel grip… until it was reduced to ashes by war.
"My savior!"
Cavendish, who had been closely watching the battle, cried out when he saw Lance's brutal end.
But he was powerless.
Forget Doflamingo—even the infantile, pacifier-chewing freak in front of him was too much to handle. Trying to help Lance was nothing but a fool's dream.
"He may have lost… he may have died… but he was a true man. One I deeply respect."
Senor Pink muttered.
"You dare challenge my authority?"
"You dare provoke my wrath?"
"You dare stand against ?!"
"This is what you get!"
Doflamingo withdrew his threads and exited his awakened state. Everything around him returned to normal… Sweat slid down his face.
Maintaining Awakening consud an imnse amount of stamina. Even soone as strong as Doflamingo couldn't sustain it forever.
Looking down at the utterly lifeless body at his feet, Doflamingo finally breathed a small sigh of relief.
Even he now realized how troubleso Lance was. If he hadn't used his awakened powers, he might not have been able to kill him.
"When you get to hell, rember this—it was , Donquixote Doflamingo, who killed you!"
"Etch my na into your soul… and rember: NEVER cross !"
He scoffed, kicking Lance's corpse away with one foot.
"Violet, toss his body up the mountain—let the beasts eat him."
With that, he turned to leave.
But no one noticed… that from Lance's corpse, an overwhelming number of black particles began to erge.
And after just two breaths of ti—sothing utterly inconceivable, sothing that defied all logic and understanding—happened.
"Doflamingo… I gotta admit, that one actually stung a little."
Suddenly, Lance's voice rang out—making Doflamingo's body freeze in place. His heart pounded as he turned around in disbelief.
Lance was standing. Completely healed.
Aside from his tattered clothes, there wasn't a single wound on his body. Not one drop of blood. Not one scar.
He looked at Doflamingo blankly, expressionless.
"You… you…"
"What the hell are you?!"
Doflamingo lost control. His voice trembled as he scread—his panic laid bare.
This was too bizarre.
How could this be real?!
Doflamingo was sure—absolutely certain—that he had killed this guy.
He had destroyed every organ, every piece of flesh. There was no life left. It was impossible for him to still be alive!
And yet here he was—not only alive, but completely unscathed. Not even a mark left behind!
Was this a dream?
No.
This was a nightmare—so vivid and terrifying it shattered all reason.
