Nami reasons that the factory is a high priority, so it could be that the information is top secret and not easily available. Law goes on to say that the difficulty in procuring intelligence was bothering him. Franky reassures him that the factory has to be massive and they should be able to see it easily, at which point he could just take care of it with his laser. Law tells Usopp he is correct, but there is just one problem. While Doflamingo is distracted, they will use that window to destroy the SMILE Factory. Law tells him that the number does not matter, and if everything goes according to plan, then Caesar will work as a successful decoy. Sanji then realizes that they don't know how many men Doflamingo will bring. Luffy remarks how he almost strayed from the objective, and Usopp remarks that Luffy's eyes (in the shape of meat) tell a different story. Law responds by declaring their conversation over and hanging up. Doflamingo pretends to be hurt, saying he was looking forward to maybe having a drink and catching up with an old friend. He tells Doflamingo that in eight hours they will deliver Caesar to the southeast shore of Green Bit, the deserted island just north of Dressrosa, and leave him there at 3 p.m., which is as far as Law is willing to go to accommodate Doflamingo. Law points the receiver toward Caesar as the bound scientist begins a tearful apology but is cut off as Law takes back the receiver. He then asks for confirmation that Caesar is alive and well.

Doflamingo reminds Law of what could happen if he gets tricked. He reclaims the conversation, asking Doflamingo not to go off on tangents, and saying he will get Caesar as agreed. Luffy instantly assumes Doflamingo is talking about meat and starts fantasizing as Law pushes his head away from the receiver, warning him not to get pulled into "his pace". Doflamingo goes on to say that he has something that Luffy will most surely be interested in. Luffy refuses to answer, but Doflamingo tells him he has been looking forward to meeting him. He then remembers Luffy disappearing only to reappear two years later and asks what he has been up to. He tells Doflamingo he will give Caesar back as per the deal, but begins to threaten Doflamingo if he does anything like that again and is about to finish when Doflamingo asks if it was two years since Ace's death. Luffy continues, making sure he is correct in thinking that Doflamingo was Caesar's superior and that he was aware of what Caesar did to his subordinates and the children. Luffy shouts his name into the receiver and declares he will be Pirate King, prompting a slap from Usopp, but to no avail. The Straw Hats are amazed he picked up, but are warned by Usopp to be quiet so he does not hear them. Doflamingo, however, is taking the call from Law and the Straw Hat Pirates. He correctly theorizes that Luffy and Law are also going after one of the Four Emperors, and wonders which one it is.Īt Dressrosa, several Den Den Mushi are ringing off the hook.
