Chapter 227: Arc 14: A Blade of Tenacity! The Gamma Knife Counterattack!


"Room!" Law focused back on the fight. "Counter Shock!" his second electric attack was successful this time as he jammed his thumbs straight into Doflamingo's stomach.

"Thank you for that one, shitty brat." Doflamingo grabbed the younger pirate by the coat and fling him off. Not letting up, he was right behind the falling Law, an Armament Haki-coated fist slammed into Law's back. "I'll send you to meet Corazon, Law. You're really such a poor soul. You were born in the hellish White Town. In your youth, your future seemed just plain darkness. Then, you met my younger brother, Corazon and he extended your life expectancy, but you've been holding a grudge against me as if you're the ghost of him and living to get your revenge. For a man who is about to die, you've honed your skills, allied with Straw Hat and even came to Dressrosa. What an astounding obsession. But, it's all over." he pulled out his flint pistol and aimed it at Law. "What a worthless 13 years you've spent. I feel sorry for you. You death is inevitable. Die in vain like a dog."

"Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun!" Luffy's enlarged, Armament Haki-coated fist smashed into Doflamingo's chest, throwing him off Law and sending him flying back into a destroyed wall. "Gomu Gomu no Battle Ax!" he slammed down a heel on the recovering Doflamingo.

"I'm not willing to save anyone." Doflamingo declared, spitting out a broken tooth. "What's the advantage of letting people who learnt the secret of the country survive? Towns, people, animals, and your allies. And you! Everything! So your friends died just a little before. Today, Dressrosa will perish. Don't worry, I'll build another country again."

"Mingo!" Luffy roared, charging straight towards Doflamingo. "If I kick your ass, everything'll be okay.

"I was trying to suggest that you can't do that." Doflamingo retaliated and a full-frontal assault began between the two pirates.

"Gomu Gomu no..." Luffy closed in, readying a punch.

"Go to hell!" Doflamingo announced. "Together with Law!"

"Shambles!" Law swapped himself with the younger 'D', now face-to-face against Doflamingo, his sword was blazing with green lightning.

"Law!" Doflamingo was stunned.

"You're the one who'll perish, Doflamingo!" Law snapped. "This operation will destroy you from inside your body!" he drove the crackling sword into Doflamingo's torso. "Gamma Knife! For this moment and for this attack!" nobody can defend an attack that comes from inside their body. Even you can't counteract this technique. He dove the sword deeper.

"You'd better know what you've done." Doflamingo growled, coughing out blood as he grabbed Law's face with a hand.

"It's no use." Law hissed. "Even if you kill me, it's too late for you to..."

"I won't let you get away with this." Doflamingo swore. "Law!"

"Gomu Gomu no Jet Stamp!" Luffy's kick broke the stand-still, the force sending Doflamingo flying backwards into a stone slab. "You jerk!"

"Wait, Straw Hat-ya." Law stopped him. Cora-san... he approached Doflamingo.

"Law, wait a moment." Sasha voiced. "If you're going to end him, it is only right that you use this." she manifested an intricate, jagged steel sword. "The Vengeance Blade; the honor sword that is your birthright."

"Right." Law claimed the blade. "That bastard... that bastard is my responsibility. Room." he formed a sphere when he reached Doflamingo's side. Cora-san, I finally can attain your ambition. It's over, Doflamingo! He glared at the bane of his existence. "You have no chance to survive now. The Gamma Knife destroys your internal organs without an external wound. When a doctor says so, there's no doubt. You just gathered up people who were convenient for you and called it a Family. And your biological younger brother, Cora-san, who tried to stop your rampage, got..."

"Yeah, that was a shame." Doflamingo admitted. "He betrayed me and even pointed a gun at me..."

"You knew!" Law snapped. "That Cora-san wasn't gonna pull the trigger. I could pull it."

"I bet so." Doflamingo chuckled. "You're the same as me." he grinned.

"Yeah, whatever you say." Law muttered. "But on that day, you were the one who was supposed to die."

"Law, I have something to say that's as evil as you think I am." Doflamingo remarked. "Corazon was a drag and an eyesore to me. He started to have a cheesy sense of justice and let out his worthless feelings. He was an incompetent man. When I killed him that day, it was a great load off my mind."

"Counter Shock!" a growling Law slammed his crackling fist of electricity into Doflamingo's body. "Go to hell, you demon!" when the attack died down, Law struggled to keep his eyes open as he raised the Vengeance Blade. With a single strike, he decapitated Doflamingo's head from the body. His revenge complete, he straggled backwards and fell onto the ground, face-up.

"It's finally over, Law." Sasha remarked, encasing the older pirate within her healing water sphere.

"Yeah." the pirate surgeon agreed as the mist spray closed up his injuries.
