Maud didn't get the Shock Fruit, but it wasn't possible for Blackbeard to get his wish.

And when Blackbeard bumps into the pacifist and Sentomaru on the way to chase Whitebeard's corpse, it is doomed that Blackbeard will no longer be able to get the Shock Fruit ability in this war.

The fate of the D family also swung in a different direction at this moment.

What will happen in the future.

Even Maude, who has a lot of prophetic information, will not know.

But those things don't matter anymore.

Because his plan begins in Mad Hatter Town and ends with the Top-Up War in Marin Vando.

From the moment he took Whitebeard's head, he already had the capital of King's Landing.

But it's not enough.

Or rather, he can get more out of this endgame.

At the moment when all the specialty stars are advancing and breaking through the eight stars together, as long as you continue to increase your efforts to hunt, you may be able to condense the ninth star frame.

Doflamingo, of course, became the next priority.

Other than that

There is also the peach rabbit Gion that has been entangled.

On the battlefield.

After using Whitebeard's corpse to lure the Blackbeard Pirates elsewhere.

Maud strode towards Doflamingo, knife in one hand.

"Fur ......"

Doflamingo had no sense of danger approaching, and his usual smirk of impunity appeared on his face.

He raised his right hand, and the parasitic threads that connected to Diamond Joz flashed rapidly as his fingertips trembled.

"Abominable ......"

Under Doflamingo's control, Diamond Joz took a heavy step and headed straight for Maud.

Although he wanted to kill Maud to avenge his father and many companions, he could not be shot by Doflamingo in this way.

It's a shame......

Joz's face was a mixture of anger and reluctance, but it was soon covered in sparkling diamonds.

He must find a way to break free from Doflamingo's grasp.

Until then, keep your whole body diamonded at all times to make sure you don't put yourself in danger because of Doflamingo's mess.

"Without the 'shadow power' to interfere with it, Bacardi. Hammond...... I can easily block all your attacks! ”

Joz forced himself to calm down, and looked fiercely at Maude, who was getting closer and closer to him.

"As long as you can realize that attacking me is pointless, then you're definitely going to shift your 'firepower' to that bastard Doflamingo."

"By then...... That's my chance. ”

"I'm going to make you pay the price you deserve!!"

Joz thought silently in his mind.

His idea was straightforward.

That is to increase his own defense to the extreme, so that Maud has no way to start.

At that time, Maud will naturally bypass him and go straight to Doflamingo's trouble.

Then, it was Maude who pressed him closely, forcing Doflamingo to break his grip on him.

Joz thought clearly, and became more and more calm.

Maude looked at Joz, who was controlled by Doflamingo, and said seriously: "I didn't expect that the famous Whitebeard Pirates Second Team Captain Diamond Joz would also be controlled by others one day." ”

“……”

Joz, who is diamond-induced all over, has a blank face.

"Uh-woo."

Doflamingo's fingers twitched, and while controlling Joz to charge, he sneered, "Without that sinister shadow ability, would your slash still have an effect on my 'toy'?" ”

He decided that Maude didn't have much physical strength and domineering left.

It just so happens that he has such a useful prop as Diamond Joz in his hand, which can be used to squeeze out Maude's last physical strength and domineering.

The odds are high......

Doflamingo grinned.

Maud didn't speak, and raised his hand to slash at Doflamingo with all his might.

A crescent-shaped shockwave filled with dangerous light cut a deep rift in the ground, and in the blink of an eye, Doflamingo was in front of him.

"Fur ......"

Doflamingo pinky a pick.

Joz, who was under his control, immediately crossed in front of him.

Rumble!

The power contained in the Overlord Slash bombarded Joz's body, but it could not cut through the diamond covered in armament.

Moments later,

Joz tossed the slash into the air the old way, neutralizing Maud's attack.

Armed color plus diamondization.

Even the slash of the world's No. 1 swordsman can resist it.

Maude had just broken through the Eight Stars' sword technique, and it was naturally impossible to cut through Joz's defense without the assistance of the shadow.

"Captain Joz!"

"We're here to help you!"

The surrounding pirates endured the grief of losing their father, clenched their weapons, and rushed towards Doflamingo.

"Don't come here."

Joz, who had some confidence in his heart, shouted in time.

The pirates who wanted to come to help Joz suddenly stopped, a little at a loss.

But

The scene where Joz easily blocked Maude's slash just now made them feel somewhat reassured.

"With Captain Joz's defense, it's absolutely fine."

That's all they can do to convince themselves to obey Captain Joz's orders.

The abrupt movement of this group of pirates was not taken into account by Maud and Doflamingo.

After manipulating Joz to block the overlord's slash, Doflamingo sneered and made Joz put his shoulders across his body in a position similar to a rugby ball.

"This is the move you used to attack me before, it seems to be called Shine Rush, Woo Woo ......"

As he spoke, Doflamingo moved his fingers in unison.

The precise "command" controlled the diamond-shaped Joz all over his body through the parasitic line, and like a brute bull, he rushed towards Maude.

"After all, it's a hardness that even the Eagle Eye slash can block, even if my 'Sword Technique' can be promoted to the third stage of the Nine Stars, I'm afraid I won't be able to break his awakened-level diamond hardness."

Maud calmly looked at Joz as he rushed over.

With just a light step, he pushed his body and easily avoided this shining impact.

After all, it's just control......

Even if Doflamingo's moves were copied, they were terrible in terms of power and speed.

This is also the limitation of the parasitic line.

"But ......"

Maud easily dodged several of Joz's rams, and then used a silent step to come behind Joz like a ghost.

Although Joz is controlled, he is able to use the color of sight and hearing and the color of armament with ease.

Caught Maude's movements with the color of seeing and hearing, it was the first time that he covered his back with armed color.

At stake, his life was at stake, and he reacted faster than Doflamingo.

Maude looked at the all-round diamond armed color behind Joz, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, swinging his knife to cut off Joz's shadow.

meantime

The idle left hand reached forward and sucked the severed shadow into the palm of his hand.

"In the face of my Shadow Fruit ability, hardness is meaningless."

Maud smiled and curled her palms, pinching Joz's shadow tightly.

"Huh?"

Joz didn't know why.

The sun shone brightly over him.

It's like a vampire has met sunlight, and the diamond-shaped ends of their limbs are slowly melting into dust.

Seeing this, Joz only felt a chill stir up in his back, and [Vertex www.booktxt.xyz] a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

Not far away.

Seeing this scene, the smile on Doflamingo's face suddenly stopped.

farther away.

The pirates, who had just given up the idea of aiding Joz, looked at Joz in horror as his body gradually shattered under the sun.

"What's that......?!"

"Captain Joz's Diamond Body...... It turned into dust!? ”

The pirates, who had just given up the idea of aiding Joz, were all shocked.
