Chapter 310: Although I Lost, I Became Stronger!
Chapter 310: Although I Lost, I Became Stronger!
"I even killed my own father!"
"What makes you think I'm afraid of sacrificing others?"
The situation was clear. No matter how much he struggled, it seemed pointless.
What made him feel the most despair was the faint presence of a powerful figure hovering above Dressrosa.
That person did not make any moves, as if waiting for something.
If he didn't make a decisive move now, there was a high chance he'd be left behind.
As for life or death—there was no guarantee.
The Birdcage only temporarily restricted Nojiko and the others from moving freely.
In his opinion, there was a high chance it wouldn't kill them.
However, Doflamingo hadn't completely given up on his subordinates like Pica.
His words were just a ploy to mislead Nojiko into not killing his cadres.
His real plan was simple—if he managed to escape, his subordinates might still have a chance to survive.
He hoped they wouldn't fight to the death if he left.
Nojiko didn't realize his little scheme.
---
"I see!"
"But do you think you can escape that easily?"
After hearing Doflamingo's words, Nojiko sneered.
To prevent the other party from escaping, she stopped wasting time.
With dark energy gathering under her feet, she dashed through the air.
She quickly approached the dome of the Birdcage, as if she didn't see it at all.
Without hesitation, she charged straight into it.
---
"Death Annihilation!"
"Burst!"
The next second, something unbelievable happened.
When Nojiko was about to hit the Birdcage, her body suddenly swelled up.
With a low shout, she self-destructed!
This was a new fruit ability that Nojiko recently developed.
The principle was to rapidly compress the death energy within her body to an extreme state.
The power depended entirely on the physical strength consumed.
This time, Nojiko directly consumed half of her physical strength.
The energy contained within was beyond terrifying!
---
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion shook the entire island of Dressrosa.
Even though Nojiko chose to self-destruct at high altitude, the shockwaves were still overwhelmingly powerful.
Many people were blown into the air and smashed against the Birdcage, instantly shredded to pieces.
The aftermath alone caused heavy casualties throughout Dressrosa.
Even the aftermath was so terrifying—let alone the center of the explosion, where the Birdcage's dome was located.
What people couldn't see was that after Nojiko's self-destruction, a huge black sphere formed in the air, crashing into the Birdcage.
In the blink of an eye, the Birdcage was torn to shreds, leaving a huge gap.
This directly caused Doflamingo's Birdcage to lose its restraining ability.
---
"How is this possible?!"
Doflamingo, who had foreseen the danger, had already escaped far away.
But seeing his masterpiece torn apart, he felt both angry and powerless.
At that moment, he couldn't help but question reality.
How could someone who didn't seem that strong possess such exaggerated power?
He had tested the strength of the Birdcage before—it could easily restrain a general-level warrior.
But now, against Nojiko, it had completely failed.
---
"Oh, you didn't run away?"
After the self-destruction, Nojiko quickly reformed and chased after Doflamingo.
She was surprised to find him still in the area.
"Why are you targeting me?!"
Doflamingo couldn't help but ask, desperate to know the reason.
"You don't need to know!"
Nojiko responded coldly, finding it unnecessary to explain.
She stepped into the air and rushed toward him again.
---
"Hmph!"
Losing his aerial combat advantage, Doflamingo hurriedly moved to an island near Dressrosa.
Seeing Nojiko chasing him relentlessly, he laughed coldly.
"Awakening!"
With a low growl, everything around him transformed into countless lines, becoming weapons under his control.
"Ever White!"
Countless transparent white threads arranged horizontally, forming a surging wave that rolled toward Nojiko.
The line wave rushed upward, trapping her in a mass of tangled strings.
But Doflamingo knew well that Nojiko's fruit ability was incredibly strange and hard to kill.
He had a contingency plan—when the Desolate White Line encased her, he crossed his hands and constricted the lines,
not to crush but to entangle and bind her.
Finally, with a quick flick, Nojiko was thrown directly into the sea.
He knew that no matter how special or unique the fruit ability, the sea would always be the burial ground for Devil Fruit users.
---
"Splash!"
After using his Awakening powers, Doflamingo managed to turn the situation around,
using the environment to send Nojiko into the abyss.
---
"I actually lost!"
High in the sky on a ship, Nojiko's real body remained within Uchiha Yi's prison circle.
Sensing that something had happened to her puppet clone, she felt disappointed but not discouraged.
---
"I lost to Doflamingo!"
"But I have gained something from this!"
"I finally mastered Armament Haki!"
As she created a new clone, black energy flowed from her fist, covering it completely.
Feeling the newfound power, Nojiko couldn't help but feel excited.
This increase in strength would significantly boost her combat capabilities.
Against enemies with special abilities, the effectiveness would be even greater.
With more practice and improvement, Doflamingo would no longer be a threat.
---
After throwing Nojiko's clone into the sea, there was no movement for a long time.
This made Doflamingo laugh with satisfaction, thinking he had finally overcome his crisis.
But his smugness didn't last long.
Before he could relish his victory, he found himself facing an even stronger enemy.
