Chapter 211: Doflamingo Falls In Line!
It didn’t take long for Ryuunosuke to sort through the intelligence gathered on Doflamingo.
It wasn’t just about the Joker himself—it covered the entire Donquixote Family, from top officers to lesser mbers.
As the docunts were passed around, Mine paused, frowning as she held up one profile in particular. It belonged to a little girl.
"Captain, this one... this girl nad Sugar. She’s a bit of a problem," Main said seriously. "Does her ability work on anyone? Or are there specific conditions?"
She wasn’t exaggerating. The information about Sugar was downright terrifying.
Anyone she touched would have their very existence erased from mory... and then turned into a toy.
This wasn’t just so parlor trick or lethal attack—it was a power that could completely wipe soone from the world’s awareness.
"As long as she makes contact, the ability triggers," Ryuunosuke replied calmly. "Once that happens, even I might forget about you."
His tone sharpened.
"So your top priority now is to be wary of that girl."
He stood up.
"Set a course—Dressrosa is our next stop."
With all the information in his hands, Ryuunosuke’s Dragon Hunter Pirates moved like a divine force had paved their path. Whatever sches Doflamingo had cooked up... in Ryuunosuke’s eyes, it was nothing more than a child’s ga.

Inside the Royal Palace of Dressrosa.
Doflamingo sat tensely as Ryuunosuke’s voice echoed from the Den Den Mushi.
"Doflamingo," Ryuunosuke drawled, "you were planning to sic Sugar on us, weren’t you?"
"After all... who could suspect such an adorable little girl?"
A nerve twitched in Doflamingo’s jaw. He didn’t speak.
Seated beside him were two familiar figures: the snot-nosed Trebol, and the girl herself—Sugar, wielder of the Hobi-Hobi no mi.
Everything Ryuunosuke said was dead-on.
Doflamingo had even imagined turning Ryuunosuke into a toy and offering him up to the World Governnt in exchange for unimaginable power. But this call? It shattered that dream instantly.
"The reason I’m calling isn’t to hold a grudge," Ryuunosuke continued, unfazed. "Honestly... I don’t even dislike you."
"That’s why I’m offering you a spot—under ."
A pause.
"Doflamingo, do you think just anyone’s worthy of being the little brother of , Ryuunosuke, Captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirates?"
Doflamingo’s shades glead as his mind whirled.
So what if he had once been a Celestial Dragon?
Even after clawing his way back up, he was still shackled by the Five Elders... by Imu, the one who ruled it all from the shadows.
But if he joined Ryuunosuke? He would still be free. A pirate, not a puppet.
And over the years, Doflamingo had grown quite fond of being free.
Becoming Ryuunosuke’s underling might just be the smartest choice he could make.
No sha in it. Pirates sought strength to survive—and this ti, strength had co to him.
"...I understand," Doflamingo said at last. "Captain Ryuunosuke."
"But I won’t join alone. The Donquixote Family cos with . All of them."
His tone was resolute.
These people weren’t just pawns anymore. Sowhere along the line, loyalty had turned into sothing deeper. Though he’d never admit it out loud... Doflamingo cared for them.
Ryuunosuke smirked. "The entire Donquixote Family will fall under the Dragon Hunter flag."
"But listen carefully—don’t expect to babysit you."
"You’ll be managing your own business. I won’t interfere in your affairs."
Trebol blinked in surprise, but Doflamingo understood imdiately.
Ryuunosuke was offering allegiance—not a leash.
"I see," Doflamingo nodded. "Thank you, Captain Ryuunosuke."
"No need for thanks," Ryuunosuke replied with a grin. "From now on, we’re past all that."
And with that, the line went dead.
Still, Ryuunosuke wasn’t quite done.
He needed to et Doflamingo face-to-face... there were still a few questions left unasked.

Three Days Later.
The Dragon Hunter Pirates arrived in Dressrosa.
Their flagship—the Primary Evil Warship—was pulled into the port for maintenance.
At the docks, the island’s current top authority, Pica, was already waiting.
"Captain, please... board my body," Pica said in his high-pitched, nasal voice.
There was a brief silence.
Then, the crew collectively nodded.
Voices were strange, sure—but no one on the Dragon Hunter Pirates was childish enough to mock it.
"It’s troubleso," Ryuunosuke muttered with a grin. "Chrollo, you’re with . The rest of you—feel free to explore."
"Oh—and this is my territory now," he added. "Don’t go roughing up the locals."
With that, he and Chrollo stepped onto Pica’s towering stone shoulder and vanished from sight.
Pica’s Stone-Stone Fruit made him ideal for rapid travel. Soon, they arrived just outside the royal palace.
Waiting at the gates stood Doflamingo—and Sugar.
That’s right.
To prove his sincerity, Doflamingo had Sugar remain close, ensuring she didn’t inadvertently erase anyone. No tricks, no accidents. It was a clear ssage: I play by your rules now.
"Captain!" Doflamingo called out, raising a hand.
But before he could say another word, Ryuunosuke cut in.
"Doflamingo. You know what this is, right?"
"We’re not here for niceties."
"If you don’t want to join ... say so now. I’m not forcing anyone."
He stepped forward, casually lowering himself into a chair nearby—completely relaxed.
