Chapter 221 The Caged Bird
The appearance of the silver-haired Doflamingo brought a great shock to Luffy. He had felt that kind of elusive powerful aura during the teaching process of Master Rayleigh. A strong and positive heart will make the master undergo earth-shaking changes. Gekko Moriah and Crocodile, the two Shichibukai whose defense was broken, will never reach the level of Ten-Yaksha, who is also one of the Shichibukai.
"It seems that this is your true form, Doflamingo's Death Rubber, Ape King Spear", Gear 4 Luffy jumped on the spot and came in front of the enemy in the blink of an eye. He concave his arms inward to obtain the strongest kinetic energy.
When two big black and red fists popped out from the rubber body, the wind from the fists had already hit Doflamingo's face. The other party couldn't hide his sarcastic smile even though he was wearing sunglasses. He really didn't take Monkey D. Luffy seriously. The other party just relied on having a good grandfather and a good father.
"You want to use the same trick on me?" Doflamingo calmly stopped the opponent's action with both hands. Luffy's two big fists were estimated to be about five times bigger than the enemy's fists. Despite such a big gap, he couldn't take a step further. In terms of strength, Doflamingo was far superior to the Bloody Muscle Man.
Doflamingo used his left knee to drive into Gear Fourth Luffy's abdomen. The Straw Hat Boy clearly had Armament Haki defense, but this solid blow was so painful that Luffy rolled his eyes. They all clearly had Armament Haki, but the gap was so huge.
Before leaving, this Shichibukai kicked Luffy in the face again, kicking him away, and at the same time left a shoe print on his face. There was also a shoe horn mark in the same position. The Straw Hat Boy looked even more like his father, which was extremely harmful and insulting.
After dragging for a hundred meters on the skull ground, Luffy finally stabilized his body. Feeling the burning marks on his face, this young man who had just reached adulthood would not back down. He would fight to the end until his life was completely burned out. Fight! Keep fighting!
The Straw Hat Boy began to hit his heart with his clenched right fist. Every vibration of his body increased the blood flow rate. The heart began to work at high load and pump blood, delivering nutrients and strength to the whole body. The bloody and muscular body surface began to completely turn from blood red to dark red. The "double pressure" move had a particularly serious side effect, consuming the life of his own heart in exchange for breaking through the limits of his body.
Feeling more powerful than ever before, the rubber man stretched out his two arms forward, "Rubber Snake King Gun".
This time, the rubber arm moved faster than last time, and it kept changing direction along the way, making 90-degree maneuverable bends each time, like two black and red pythons, making it impossible for the enemy to guess its final landing point.
After circling behind Doflamingo, the two fists finally showed their fangs. The enemy is not good at observation Haki and cannot predict the future, but that does not mean that the opponent has no countermeasures.
A white line emerged from the palm of Doflamingo's left hand and flew towards Luffy at a speed faster than the Snake King's Lance. As for Luffy, he chose to resist the punch head-on. The Straw Hat Boy had no way to avoid it and his neck was tied by a thick line, as if Monkey D. Luffy was putting a dog leash on him.
The thick wire on his neck tightened and pulled forward, squeezing Gear Fourth Luffy's thick neck to the thickness of three fingers. He tried to use brute force to break free from Doflamingo's control of the wire, but the result was that his neck became even more uncomfortable, and the air entering his lungs became less and less. If he didn't retract his arms, he would be in danger of suffocation at any time, and prolonged lack of oxygen to the brain could be fatal.
After retracting the two rubber arms, Gear Fourth Luffy used all his strength to tear the white line on his neck, but the toughness of Doflamingo's antenna was far greater than that of the Straw Hat Boy. Through various efforts and forces at various angles, the white line had been tied into the palm wrapped in Armament Haki, but even so, it remained unmoved and did not even become derailed or thinner.
Doflamingo, who has the initiative, will certainly not let Luffy have an easy time. Using the antenna as a dog leash, he began to torture the opponent in the sky shot, making Luffy's body wander in the direction of the white line on his neck, pulling him to move constantly on the Founding Titan, sometimes smashing him into the sea of skeletons, sometimes dragging him into the sky, playing with the Straw Hat Boy's fragile neck.
If someone else was played like this by Doflamingo, their neck would be broken in less than a minute. Only the rubber man's neck can be deformed at will. Its extremely high ductility and elasticity allow Luffy to survive until now.
In order to prevent Doflamingo from playing tricks on him, Luffy made the giant slippers under his feet work actively, transporting the owner to the enemy. Only by closing the distance could he have hope of winning.
Tenyasha soon noticed something was wrong. The pair of slippers on Monkey D. Luffy's feet that would never fall off had a problem. They could actually actively accelerate and carry their owner flying. "It's such a waste, Straw Hat boy, to let a pair of slippers eat the devil fruit."
Since the other party was so blind as to choose to come over, Doflamingo would of course treat him well. His flexible right hand formed a small white net in the air, and he waited for the arrival of the reckless Monkey D. Luffy.
Gear Fourth Luffy's neck had been strangled to the thickness of a finger, but this big brother was still able to move and had not lost consciousness, and could continue to speak: "Doflamingo, I want revenge for Law, I want you to pay for his life."
"Rubber Ape King Machine Gun", Luffy stretched and retracted his two arms and began to try to punch with his fists. Since Doflamingo could take two punches, he would give him hundreds and thousands of punches. He didn't believe that his desperate efforts would not be effective. Lucci and Crocodile were defeated by different degrees of random punches.
"Bird in a cage", Doflamingo threw the woven white net in his right hand towards Luffy, and cut off the connection to the antenna with his left hand. Under the influence of the devil fruit, this thick line also turned from a line to a net, laying a trap and covering the Straw Hat Boy.
Gear Fourth Luffy's proud random fighting mode, the Rubber Ape King's machine gun fired hundreds of fist shadows into the white net in an instant. It could not be said to be slightly effective but it had no effect at all. No matter how many punches he threw, he could not break through this tangible net. The bird in the cage was tougher than an antenna.
Each of these punches included armed Haki, but they could not hurt the white net at all. It was too late for Luffy to dodge, and his whole body was wrapped up in two white nets, forming a big circle within a small circle. Then the white nets tightened and turned into a one-meter-high birdcage, locking the grandson of the navy hero inside.
Luffy grabbed the white line near the birdcage with both hands, trying to pry the cage open with brute force, but after using all his strength, the birdcage didn't move at all. Even in his Gear Fourth state, he couldn't shake the opponent, so there was no hope at all in states below Gear Fourth.
It is too early for the rising star of Pirates to challenge the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Doflamingo's current strength is not something that Monkey D. Luffy can challenge.
