Chapter 15 — Doflamingo, Come Out Right Now!
Two days later.
The Red Dragon sailed proudly at the front, leading the way as the main vessel.
Behind it followed the heavily loaded cargo ship filled with Seastone—still shaking rhythmically on the waves, even more violently than on the first day.
Inside the cabin, their "intensive training" had not yet ended.
However, this time it was no longer Akira doing the training.
It was Yamato—who now asked for it herself.
On the first day, when Yamato had first put on that so-called "sibling outfit," she had been doubtful of Akira's claims.
She couldn't believe that a single piece of armor could truly make someone stronger.
But when they began to "train seriously," pure energy suddenly surged from the Armor of Will, flowing directly into her body like a torrent of life.
In that instant, her physical strength skyrocketed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Her power, which had stagnated for years, started climbing every few seconds—each pulse of energy sending her body into another leap of growth!
The change was so incredible that Yamato could hardly believe it.
"This… this can't be real!"
"This Armor of Will actually makes you stronger?!"
Akira didn't bother to explain. His answer came through action.
Their "training" never stopped, not even for a moment.
From shock, Yamato moved to awe—then to exhilaration.
It was as if she had just discovered a new world.
This kind of ability felt tailor-made for her. As a descendant of the Oni, she was born to endure, to push her body to its limits.
Her regeneration was fast, and the spirit of Kozuki Oden inside her heart roared with excitement:
To become strong. To defeat Kaido. No hardship is too great to bear!
And yet… this didn't even feel like suffering.
In fact, it felt better—more satisfying—than any training she had ever done before.
So on the second day, Yamato stopped being the "passive" partner.
She started to enjoy the process—
the thrill of growing stronger with every clash.
By the third day, she had fully embraced it.
"Akira! Are you slacking off?!"
"With strength that weak, how are you supposed to beat Father?!"
"Come on, continue!"
"I—I can still take it!"
"Wait! No, Akira, stop! Let's… let's continue tomorrow!"
…
Facing a woman who had suddenly awakened boundless energy, Akira had no choice but to match her.
With the Armor of Will amplifying him each time, every "session" hit harder than the last.
But Yamato gave everything in return—each strike, each exchange, all-out.
Both of them were drunk on the rush of progress, reveling in how rapidly their strength grew.
By the third morning, Yamato was completely addicted.
She wore her "training version" of the sibling outfit, carried her new Hassaikai, and knocked on Akira's door before dawn.
"Akira! Wake up! We have to train!"
"If we can't beat Kaido yet, how can we rest?!"
Watching her bursting with excitement, Akira—for the first time—felt tired.
Not physically.
Mentally.
But this dual-training method, which benefited them both…
wasn't something he could stop now either.
And so, the cargo ship never stopped shaking for the next three days.
Until, finally, on the morning of the fourth day——
When the colorful cliffs of Dressrosa appeared on the horizon, their "training" finally ended.
Akira opened his System Panel, eager to see the results of their three-day effort.
For three straight days, they had barely rested.
Both Armors of Will had now reached over two thousand stacked layers each!
That meant their physical strength had multiplied more than twentyfold!
Yamato's power had long since surpassed her previous limits.
With the Hassaikai in her hands and the added reinforcement of the Armor of Will,
she was confident she could crush Queen head-on.
Even against King, she could now fight evenly!
But Akira's growth was even more monstrous.
From five hundred initial layers to an additional two thousand—his strength had exploded beyond imagination.
The Divine Manifestation Technique he wielded had evolved once again—
breaking through to Stage Three!
Now, his size and attributes could amplify eightfold!
Which meant that his former two-meter-tall frame could now reach sixteen meters—
Sixteen meters—taller than Kaido's human-dragon hybrid form!
His total power had ascended to an absurd level.
Akira even thought,
If I fully unleash my Divine Manifestation right now…
Even if Kaido transforms into his complete dragon form—
I can fight him head-on.
And I won't lose.

Morning of the Fourth Day.
They finally arrived at the island of passion and play—Dressrosa.
Akira docked both ships at a secluded port, then woke the Beasts Pirates crew aboard the Red Dragon, who had been seasick for three days straight.
His order was simple.
"You lot—take the Red Dragon back to Wano. Immediately."
It was as if the heavens themselves had granted them mercy.
Just surviving the past three days already felt like a miracle to them!
These were seasoned sailors, some with thirty years of experience on the seas—
and yet the ship's relentless shaking had broken them completely.
They'd spent three full days vomiting nonstop.
The "gods" training on board were terrifying beyond words!
So when Akira gave the order, they didn't hesitate for a second—
they fled with the Red Dragon as if their lives depended on it.
The harbor was left silent—only Akira, Yamato, and the cargo ship full of Seastone remained.
After three days of "joint training" and "mutual combat," their bond had grown unshakable.
They trusted each other completely now.
"Akira, what's our next move?"
"Simple. We find the ruler of this island—Donquixote Doflamingo."
"We sell the entire ship's cargo."
"These Seastones are worth over a billion Berry. If we sell them, we'll live comfortably for a while."
Yamato hesitated.
"Sell all of it?"
"But… isn't this Father's property? Wano's treasure? Isn't it wrong to spend it?"
Akira tilted his head.
"Then… do you have any money?"
Yamato blinked, then shook her head. "No."
"Then how do we eat?"
Another shake.
"…"
Akira sighed and shrugged.
"If we don't sell something, we'll starve to death on the street."
"Just selling a little Seastone shouldn't hurt, right?"
"Besides, food in foreign countries isn't cheap."
Yamato thought about it seriously for a moment—then nodded slowly.
"Ah… I guess that makes sense."
But then, her brow furrowed.
"Wait a second, Akira…"
"Why do you sound so experienced? It's like you've… already taken Father's money before."
Akira laughed softly.
"Your father's money, your money, my money—it's all the same thing."
"You're his daughter, I'm his son-in-law."
"So technically, it's our money."
"Haha! You're right!!"
The idea of legally scamming her own father seemed to bring Yamato far too much joy.
They calmly secured the ships, raising the Beasts Pirates flag high.
With that banner flying, no thief would dare come close.
Once everything was set, the two of them walked casually into Dressrosa's streets—
completely ignoring the toy people bustling around—
heading straight toward Doflamingo's palace atop the King's Plateau.
At the castle gates——
"Akira, how are we getting in?"
"Like this."
Akira stepped back once.
BOOM!!!
A single kick sent the colossal stone gate flying into rubble!
Dust filled the air, stones scattered across the ground.
Akira raised his head and shouted into the palace, his voice echoing like thunder.
"DOFLAMINGO——!!"
"Get out here and face me!!"
