Chapter 724 summary
Doflamingo recognizes Sanji and mocks him while Sanji launches burning kicks that force the Warlord onto the defensive. Doflamingo counters with strings that trap Sanji in midair, then prepares a finishing whip attack until Law intervenes with Shambles and expands a massive Room to pull Sanji to safety. The Sunny crew panics as meteors fall and Doflamingo pursues, but Law redirects the threats and orders the ship to flee toward clearer skies while handing over Caesar's heart. Sanji apologizes and questions Law's focus on Doflamingo, yet the crew ultimately fires the Coup de Burst to escape the string attacks. Law explains that he will hold the remaining Straw Hats hostage in Dressrosa if necessary and declares the alliance over once the factory is destroyed. On the bridge Law reveals his true aim of sabotaging the SMILE production to settle a grudge from thirteen years earlier, accepting that Doflamingo may kill him in return. Doflamingo smiles at the resolve while the Sunny crew stares in shock at the severed partnership.
