Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1:

Disco stood before the human auction house, once flourishing under his rule but now reduced to ruins. Every day, he would come here, searching through the wreckage of his former auction, only to leave disappointed.

The auction house, which he had painstakingly built, was now a thing of the past due to the actions of ruthless hunters. Not only had his auction house been leveled, but other ones involved in human trafficking had also suffered the same fate.

Today, however, was different from the previous days. Disco knew that it was all over.

"Why did you spare me until now? Were you planning to make an example of me?" he uttered, not talking to himself.

Behind him stood five hunters, dressed in their uniforms.

"The guild master's orders were clear: apprehend him when the time is right. Maybe witnessing the consequences of his sins from a different perspective will lead to repentance," one of the hunters explained.

Hearing this, Disco's body trembled, and tears streamed down his face. He was crying, but the hunters behind him remained unmoved by his display of emotions.

"Emmanuel Disco, you are under arrest. Do not resist. Any movement or aggression will be used against you in court. You have the right to appoint a lawyer, and if you cannot afford one, the court will provide one for you. You are charged with crimes including human trafficking, murder, rape, and fraud..."

Disco felt a powerful force immobilizing him, rendering him unable to move or speak. One of the hunters, possessing a devil fruit ability, had activated his power to manipulate the air around Disco, turning him into a human lock.

As the manga book slipped from Disco's hand, the moment he tried to grasp it, it fell open. The hunters paid no attention to its contents.

Within the manga's pages, a familiar face appeared—Donquixote Doflamingo, smiling cunningly.

"One Piece" Events:

—————————

[Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1, Human Shop, Backstage.]

((Fufufufufufu!!))

The strange laughter echoed from the Den Den Mushi.

"This is no laughing matter…!! Isn't this your shop!?" exclaimed Disco.

"Haa... Haa... Mister Doflamingo, where are you...!!!?"

"The shop's reputation will be tarnished, and considering Saint Rosward's family, they'll likely blame us for this...!! You have to do something!!"

((Fufufufu…!! You know... The human trade is already old news, idiot…!!))

"Eh!?...!!?" Disco was surprised to hear that.

((We're in the age of "Smiles." Don't call me again, Disco. I'll leave the shop to you...!! Fufufufu!!))

"What!!? You're just going to abandon me? In the midst of the worst disaster we've ever faced-!!"

((Shut up... You're a pain in the ass.)) Doflamingo interrupted harshly. ((You... While you were blaming me for your own misfortune, a new era has been drawing closer, Disco.))

Disco: "...!?"

((Right now, I... No, right now we are being recalled by the Marines.))

The scene shifted from Disco's location to where Doflamingo was situated.

Doflamingo was enjoying a sunbath while sipping a cold drink.

"How... Do you see this playing out?"

A wicked smile appeared on Doflamingo's face as he continued, "The Whitebeard Pirates... versus The Royal Shichibukai!!"

At Elbaf Island:

"So he's already been arrested? Well, good job, keep apprehending all those who were involved in evil deeds in the past..."

"Don't arrest people who haven't done anything yet. Maybe the manga will be their chance to repent."

As soon as he said that, Rob disconnected and put his iPhone 14 Pro Max back in his pocket... in this world, he would make sure to gradually bring back the so-called communication snails to Nature and replace them with something more practical - mobile phones. He was just waiting for the right time to ask Vegapunk about developing it.

After all, no matter how formidable his 2 trillion art points are, it will not be enough for him to buy phones for everyone in the world. It is better to return this world to its technological roots, especially since phones are considered a lost technology in this world where they were popular 800 years ago.

"This evil man was the one behind the slave trade!"

"Isn't he Shichibukai Doflamingo?"

"He looks like a typical despicable person!"

Hearing the Giants' sarcastic comments, Rob shook his head and sighed.

"He's my disciple, guys, don't swear at him."

...

At Ohara:

"Fufufu, it looks like my reputation is going to take a hit again."

At this moment, almost everyone in the art store was staring at young Doflamingo with mixed emotions.

Who doesn't know Donquixote Doflamingo in Ohara?

Despite being just a 15-year-old teenage boy, he was a big shot.

Not only was he a high-ranking A-rank Hunter with great potential to become a legendary hunter in the future, but he was also a disciple of Rob. With this identity, no one dared to show any signs of displeasure on their face, even if it appeared in the manga that Doflamingo is the real one behind human trafficking.

"Human trafficking? This is the least expected thing from my manga counterpart, Fufufu... I'm sure the next one is worse... so let's just have fun," said Doflamingo with an evil smile on his face.

"Brother, it's okay, it's okay. After all, the events of the manga have nothing to do with our reality," Rosinante thought that his brother was feeling down, so he hurried to console him with words.

"Yes, yes, Doffy-kun, this person in the manga does not represent the current you. You are the leader of the Three Stars, the most promising team of hunters in the guild. Whoever dares to disrespect you, I will stun him with lightning for you!" Enel was excited about the idea of stunning someone.

"Fufufufu~ maybe experiencing some drama in this life isn't so bad after all... this manga I like may become my real enemy in the future."

"Heh~ the Whitebeard Pirates versus the Royal Shichibukai? Could there be a war after all?"

"It seems that we are in for some really exciting events... who do you think will be the winner, huh!?"

...

In the treacherous waters of the New World, a momentous revelation unfolded:

"This kid... he's the real boss and the mastermind behind Disco," Whitebeard remarked, astonishment etched across his face.

"What does he mean by 'this is the era of smiles'? Strange, why do I sense something disgusting from this word, contrary to its meaning," Roger pondered, his brows furrowed in contemplation.

"Look at this, guys," Rayleigh called out, drawing everyone's attention.

"Gurararara!!"

"Wahahaha!!"

Doflamingo's last words sent ripples of amusement through the crew, and both Whitebeard and Roger burst into laughter, their hearty voices resonating across the ship.

"The Whitebeard Pirates versus The Royal Shichibukai?" Marco questioned a glint of excitement in his eyes.

"It seems that the war is inevitable! Haha! I have to find big brother Rob and urge him to hurry up and draw the story!" Shanks exclaimed, enthusiasm brimming within them.

"I want to see the events of the war right away!"

"I'm so excited!"

"And so am I!"

"We'll surely defeat the damn Navy!"

The high spirit of the mighty Whitebeard Pirates soared to new heights, their determination to face whatever challenges lay ahead unwavering.
