Chapter 554

Just that.

Lu En not only felt no anxiety, but remained enthusiastically eager, his expression full of anticipation.

What is Doflamingo's strongest hidden technique?

Undoubtedly.

That is his Devil Fruit awakening!

Now, he has reached the point of utter desperation.

Naturally, he must unleash his final trump card!

Make a final burst!

"As you wish."

Doflamingo replied coldly.

Then,

he closed his eyes slightly,

in an instant, without hesitation, he mobilized the vast power within his body.

And he fully activated his Devil Fruit ability.

Pushing his Devil Fruit ability to its utmost state.

Finally—

a certain lock within his body, struck by his force, gradually cracked and shattered.

Thus declared,

his Devil Fruit had awakened!

At the very moment Doflamingo's Devil Fruit awakened,

visible to the naked eye,

around him,

all objects gradually began to change shape.

The greatest change was…

the ruined buildings transformed into tens of thousands of threads, forming a terrifying scene like demons dancing wildly, sending chills down the spine.

Imposing a strong psychological impact and pressure.

"Is this the legendary Devil Fruit awakening?"

Lu En slightly narrowed his eyes, silently observing the changes in Doflamingo's body.

His gaze shifted,

he looked toward the buildings turned into tens of thousands of threads.

Under the interference of the Devil Fruit awakening,

a Paramecia user can transform all objects in their surroundings into Devil Fruit energy, freely manipulating them for attack.

This is the power of Devil Fruit awakening.

Once the fruit awakens,

it means combat power will surge linearly.

Double in strength!

Now, Doflamingo had entered his peak state of maximum power.

Huh!

Doflamingo exhaled softly, opened his eyes, his pupils filled with bloodshot veins, his gaze sharp and icy as he fixed it on Lu En; feeling the endless power surging within him, he revealed a vicious smile.

"Next…"

"It's time to send you to your grave!"

He sneered.

"Hakurai Haku Sen!"

He roared.

Doflamingo manipulated the threads with his ten fingers.

In an instant,

under the interference of the Devil Fruit awakening, the countless soil materials beneath the ground transformed into tens of thousands of threads, merging into a colossal thread pillar resembling a massive structure.

Like a tidal wave…

it crashed down upon Lu En's position, covering the entire sky and earth.

Tens of thousands of threads nearly sealed off every possible escape route for Lu En.

A massive thread pillar madly extended and coiled toward Lu En's body.

"Sō!"

Facing Doflamingo's attack, Lu En activated the Six Powers technique: Shave.

His body flashed,

vanishing instantly from his original spot.

In the next instant,

he appeared over ten meters away, his expression a degree of gravity as he stared at Doflamingo.

Doflamingo in his Devil Fruit awakened state was undoubtedly far, far stronger than before.

The current Doflamingo deserved Lu En's full strength!

"It seems…"

"I'm going all out now."

Lu En slightly closed his eyes, and a mighty force surged into his heart, filling his limbs and all his internal organs.

Then,

the Armament Color armor wrapped around his arms grew darker and darker, and the aura it emitted became increasingly terrifying and sharp.

"Die!"

Doflamingo manipulated a pillar of threads, like a tidal wave, composed of countless filaments, vast as a sky-covering ocean surging toward him.

It slammed down violently onto the spot where Lu En stood.

At the critical moment,

Lu En dodged.

Just after his figure had evaded,

Boom—

a world-shaking explosion erupted on the spot.

As if the heavens had shattered.

The ground was instantly blasted into a thousand holes.

Countless shattered cracks spread in all directions.

"Dodging? Can you escape?"

Doflamingo's forehead veins bulged; his eyes glared coldly and menacingly at Lu En.

His ten fingers kept dancing…

Like playing a piano, controlling thousands upon thousands of threads.

Another massive pillar of threads rose from beneath the ground.

Two massive pillars of threads, like tidal waves, swiftly wrapped completely around Lu En's body.

"Finally, I've caught you."

"Die!"

Doflamingo's eyes glinted with intense killing intent.

"Crush!"

Under his control,

thousands upon thousands of threads sought to fully wrap and crush Lu En's body.
