Chapter 562

"No one has ever made me look so humiliated."

"Fist Demon Lu En, I remember you."

"I must admit…"

"You are a terrifying opponent—the most fearsome enemy I have ever faced!"

"But one day, I will reclaim the face I lost today!"

Doflamingo spoke another threat.

Given his arrogant and reckless nature, if he had not truly lacked the confidence to defeat Lu En, he would never have let him leave so easily.

After all.

Today, the Donquixote Family lost a luxurious casino—equivalent to losing their greatest source of income.

Had Lu En's strength been just three percent weaker…

Doflamingo would never have chosen to stop here!

In the end.

Ultimately, it was Lu En's overwhelming strength that stirred intense dread within Doflamingo, compelling the latter to dare not act rashly.

"Want to reclaim your face?"

"I'll wait."

Lu En smiled faintly.

At that moment,

he suddenly pulled out an envelope and tossed it casually toward the battered Doflamingo, saying: "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you."

"Inside is an invitation from the Yuhai Army."

"After you read its contents…"

"Give me your answer as soon as possible."

Across the entire street,

riddled with holes,

unrecognizable.

The once-pristine bustling street had become a ruin.

Each building had shattered and collapsed into piles of debris.

The ground was pitted and uneven,

countless cracks spreading like spiderwebs in every direction.

Dense and thick, chilling to the bone.

The battle between Lu En and Doflamingo had ended.

It had lasted nearly two full hours!

It sank the casino,

destroyed the streets within a kilometer radius.

The power of their clash had turned the battlefield into utter devastation.

With their battle over,

the ruins left behind could never be restored to their former state.

It was hard to imagine…

that a ruined stretch of street stretching over a thousand meters was the aftermath of just two men fighting.

"Could this really be human?"

"Or two monsters?"

"Two people merely fighting a duel—and yet the entire casino, along with the surrounding thousand-meter area, had been reduced to ruins."

"What is a monster? This is it."

"Sky Demon Doflamingo, Fist Demon Lu En! Both are complete monsters!"

"Especially…"

"Fist Demon Lu En, this monster, is only five years old! That is the most terrifying part."

In the corner, five pirates trembled violently, faces pale with fear.

Their eyes swept the surroundings,

and seeing the pitted, ruined scene left behind, they felt their scalps prickling.

A chill rose from their soles straight to the crown of their heads.

Goosebumps.

This level of terrifying combat had shattered their understanding of the world.

It had completely collapsed their worldview.

The immense combat power they displayed…

made them truly comprehend.

What the true top-tier powerhouses of this sea were truly like!

Meanwhile.

On the other side.

Tororo, Pica, and Diamante—the three highest-ranking officers of the Donquixote Family—stared in stunned silence as their young master yielded to Fist Demon Lu En.

They could see.

Their young master's humiliation and helplessness.

This was the first time in their lives they had seen such a thing.

The arrogant and overbearing young master had actually shown such a frustrated and helpless expression.

And moreover…

He had no choice but to bow his head and compromise with a mere five-year-old brat!

Each of these scenes struck them with an intense visual impact, shaking them deeply within.

Gulp!

After a long while, Trebol couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

He opened his mouth, dazed, and said: "Young master, he compromised with Quan Mo Lu En? Does this battle count as completely over now?"

"There is no victor…"

"The two monsters ended in a draw."

"The young master didn't lose, but he didn't win either."

"Even after the young master awakened his Devil Fruit, he still couldn't defeat Quan Mo Lu En in the end. What's more, he was forced to agree to Quan Mo Lu En's ceasefire proposal."

The always-dominant Doflamingo, on this day, let them see the side of him that felt utterly powerless.

It let them realize.

That…

Their young master was not invincible.

At least,

On this sea, there were still many powerful experts who could fight their young master.

For example,

The Quan Mo Lu En from the Yuhai Army.

A monster hailed as the strongest genius in the history of the Yuhai Army!

That person possessed the qualification to fight their young master on equal footing.

"Actually, this is already the best outcome."

Pica sighed and said helplessly.

As long as young master Doflamingo wasn't defeated…

In his view,

This result was entirely acceptable to him.
