Chapter 223 Information Spreads Widely About Users of the Op-Op Fruit

Ever since Doflamingo accidentally learned from an underground emperor in the underworld that the Luo Ji World Group was looking for the Heart Pirates, he has become increasingly restless.

One after another, the Dark Emperors of the Underworld received bounty requests, but Doflamingo was the only one who didn't. Isn't this just targeting him?

Does Luo Ji already know about his relationship with Luo?

He hasn't yet resolved his feud with Rebecca and Violet.

As a result, Luo Ji was looking for this guy Luo again.

It's important to know that there was a slight rift between him and Ronaldo because of Corazon's problem.

For years, Luo had been evading the Don Quixote family's search and recruitment.

Doflamingo suspects that Law probably already knows the truth about how he killed Corazon.

After all, Corazon had been taking Law with him all those years ago to find a cure for lead poisoning.

The fruit of surgery that Corazon stole must have been eaten by Law.

Otherwise, Luo would not have been able to survive such a terminal illness as lead poisoning.

For years, Doflamingo has been trying to recruit Law again, and even wants Law to become the third Corazon of Hearts in the Donquixote Family.

However, Luo remained in the North Blue to develop his skills and did not venture to the Grand Line.

Furthermore, the Heart Pirates possess a polar submarine, and Law's intelligence and caution have made it difficult for the Donquixote Family to deal with this brat.

Luo's severe dark circles under his eyes in the early stages might have been related to being pursued by the Don Quixote family.

Of course, it's also possible that Doflamingo wanted the young Law to grow freely before personally reaping the rewards.

Doflamingo has always coveted the ultimate technique of the Op-Op Fruit: the Immortality Surgery.

He originally intended for his younger brother Corazon to eat the Op-Op Fruit so that he could ultimately perform the Immortality Surgery on himself and become an immortal god.

But too many unexpected things happened during that surgical transaction back then.

···

Now that Doflamingo knows that Law is looking for Law, he is both afraid that Law will join Law's World Pirates and afraid that the power of the Op-Op Fruit will fall into Law's hands.

Doflamingo has gained another enemy who has joined Luo Ji's ranks, and the ageless surgery will be completely gone from him.

"Damn it! Why did this happen?!"

Doflamingo cursed under his breath in frustration; he was already trying to find a way to befriend the Luo Ji World Group.

But fate seemed determined to completely destroy Luo Ji World Group.

Rebecca, Violet, Luo...

These grudges and deadlocks are simply unsolvable!

What I can't have, you can't have either!

Doflamingo doesn't want Law to get him, so he has no choice but to go all out and muddy the waters completely.

"Monet! Immediately relay the news that Luo Ji wants to find a user of the Op-Op Fruit to the World Government."

At the same time, they secretly spread the news in the North Sea that the Five Emperors, Luo Ji, intended to hunt down Trafalgar Law.

Doflamingo's eyes were filled with madness. He had been deliberately suppressing news of Law all these years, not wanting the World Government and the Celestial Dragons to know about Law's existence as a user of the Op-Op Fruit.

But now Luo Ji has also set his sights on Luo.

Since Doflamingo couldn't do anything to the World Army, he had no choice but to drag the World Government and the Celestial Dragons into the fray.

At the same time, scare Luo into hiding from Luo Ji's World Group, so that Luo Ji can't find him easily.

This move might cause the Luo Ji World Group and the World Government to fight each other in the North Sea, resulting in mutual destruction.

He then devised a plan to secretly steal Luo away, hide him, and train him himself until Luo was able to perform the ultimate surgery.

"Yes!"

Secretary Monet immediately went to carry out Doflamingo's orders, mobilizing the Donquixote Family's affiliated forces in the North Blue.

"Luo Ji! Why are you forcing me like this!"

"I really want to see you deal with the Celestial Dragons!"

Doflamingo gritted his teeth and growled, his Conqueror's Haki bursting forth uncontrollably.

If it weren't for Rebecca, Violet, and Luo, he would definitely have formed a very close working relationship with Luo Ji.

They might even spend a lot of money to help Luo Ji deal with and annoy the Celestial Dragons.

But fate played a cruel trick on him.

Just like his foolish father, and those swine-like celestial beings, they were all humiliating and toying with him.

The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

In the office of the highest authority.

"The Luo Ji World Group is still in the North Sea!"

"He wasn't satisfied with just taking down Germa; he even wanted to find a user of the Op-Op Fruit!"

"The user of the Op-Op Fruit is also our target; we absolutely cannot let Luo Ji get it!"

"I was just about to deal with them! Now that he's exposed his whereabouts, I'll go to the North Sea and wipe them out!"

"Go and discuss this with Lord Im immediately. We might not be enough to deal with the Luo Ji World Group."

···

After receiving news that Luo Ji was searching for Trafalgar Law, the user of the Op-Op Fruit, in the North Blue, the Five Elders immediately held an emergency meeting.

This is a good opportunity to deal with the Luo Ji World Group.

Even if we fail to ambush the Luo Ji World Group in the end, it would be good to capture the Op-Op Fruit user.

So now they need to report to Lord Im how to deal with the still possible existence of Joy Boy's Conqueror's Haki.

Is Lord Im really willing to leave Mary Geoise and personally ambush the Luo Ji World Group?

If Im doesn't intend to leave Mary Geoise, the Five Elders can only bring a few high-ranking naval personnel, which is enough to encircle and annihilate the Luo Ji World Group.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford

Fleet Admiral Sengoku the Buddha also received secret information about the user of the Op-Op Fruit.

"Which bastard spread this news? This seems a bit strange."

Sengoku the Buddha frowned. How come there's suddenly so much information about users of the Op-Op Fruit on the high seas?

The news that even users of the Op-Op Fruit could perform immortality surgeries spread like wildfire.

There's a strong sense of conspiracy about this.

"Someone seems to want to see the battle between the World Government and the Luo Ji World Group. It seems that the person who leaked this information also covets the Op-Op Fruit user."

Vice Admiral Tsuru quickly clarified the general information, but it must be said that the allure of the Op-Op Fruit user was immense.

Given that the Luo Ji World Group is indeed currently missing in the North Blue, it's quite possible they are secretly searching for a user of the Op-Op Fruit.

"It seems something big is about to happen in Beihai!"

Buddha Sengoku sighed; his adopted son, Rosinante, had died because of the Surgery Fruit.

I wonder if it was worth it for Rosinante to risk his life to protect Trafalgar Law, a young pirate suffering from a terminal illness.

Trafalgar Law, the captain of the Heart Pirates, is now quite infamous, with a seemingly extremely wicked personality, and is known as the "Surgeon of Death."

There are many rumors in the North Sea about Trafalgar Law, who played with life and took pleasure in killing.

This greatly displeased the Buddha Sengoku, who felt that Luo had betrayed Rosinante's life.

Trafalgar Law is now caught in a huge and dangerous vortex, and it is uncertain whether he can survive the struggle and confrontation between the World Government and the Law World Group.

Eating the fruit of surgery saved Luo's life, who was suffering from a terminal illness.

But possessing this special ability will mean he will never have peace in his life.

After all, immortality is the lifelong pursuit of countless ambitious people.
