Cover story: Solo Voyage of Jinbe, First Son of the Sea, Vol. 26, "For Now, a Banquet!" Jinbe's cover-serial scene shows the sea beasts, fishermen, islanders, and a cheerful banquet-like mood by the water after the earlier apology and repair incidents. Page 2: Color fanart extra page showing Boa Hancock in a red and pink outfit. This is useful character artwork but not part of the Dressrosa battle narrative and has no main-story dialogue to preserve. Page 3: Color fanart extra page of Roronoa Zoro in close-up, with small text reading "leave it up to me Luffy" and Japanese text below it. It is useful Straw Hat character art rather than part of the chapter's main story sequence. Page 4: At the Royal Palace, Trebol asks Law, "Why'd you stop me?" after Law interrupts him. Law says all he was trying to do was smash Doflamingo's head in. Luffy sums it up bluntly: "Law's fucking head in!" The narration tags the scene as arch enemies: the final battle, Luffy vs. Doflamingo. As Luffy and Doflamingo clash, the force explodes across the palace and even through the Birdcage area. Trebol reacts, "What! A clash of Haoshoku Haki!?" and someone says, "That snot nose punk has it too!?" Page 5: Luffy and Doflamingo trade a direct Haki-laced blow, and the burst knocks nearby people unconscious. Trebol asks, "They all passed out?" and identifies it: "That's Haki! Heeey~ Haoshoku Haki!" A wounded observer realizes that Straw Hat has it too. Zoro, watching from elsewhere, frames it as proof: "It is proof of one who has the qualities of a king! Doflamingo... You are heaven's chosen!" The page reinforces that the final fight is not only physical but also a clash between two people with Conqueror's Haki. Page 6: Trebol remembers the day the executives found young Doflamingo. In the flashback, he places a gun and a Devil Fruit before the boy and says, "If yer' a man, it's time you tested yourself. Got someone you want dead? Shall I give him the power to exact revenge?" Doflamingo answers that there are too many to count. In the present, Trebol laughs that Doffy is different and that Luffy will never be a match for him. He explains that Doflamingo's birth fostered his madness and his fate invoked his rage: "They have made this man into a monolithic yaksha!" A note explains yaksha as a Sanskrit Buddhist term meaning demon. Page 7: The fight continues at high speed with very little dialogue. Doflamingo spins and lashes out with his long leg and threads while Luffy tries to stay close enough to keep attacking. Luffy is driven through the air and then twists back toward Doflamingo, while Law watches and trembles from his injuries. The page's action shows Doflamingo still moving sharply despite Gamma Knife, proving that his emergency thread treatment has kept him dangerous enough to match Luffy in close combat. Page 8: Luffy presses the attack, swinging heavy Haki-coated blows into Doflamingo as the two exchange impacts in the air. Doflamingo absorbs, redirects, and counters through his strings and movement, refusing to give Luffy a clean finish. The panels are mostly impact SFX and motion lines, with Law still tracking the fight from below. The sequence emphasizes that Luffy has raw power and anger on his side, but Doflamingo's durability, speed, and string techniques are still enough to keep the battle even. Page 9: Luffy is knocked back but immediately starts another technique: "Gomu Gomu no..." Doflamingo watches with blood running down his face. Luffy names the attack "Eagle..." while forming a large Haki-enhanced strike. He launches the blow toward Doflamingo with a roaring impact, trying to drive through Doflamingo's defense before the wounded warlord can recover fully. The page keeps the focus on Luffy's momentum and Doflamingo's grim composure as the attack builds into Eagle Bazooka. Page 10: Luffy completes the attack as "Bazooka!" and sends the force blasting outward with a "Fwissh" and huge impact. Doflamingo reacts and then counters with his own technique: "Athlete Thread!" A side note says the kanji read "the shining thread." The threads cut and whip through the space, letting Doflamingo avoid being cleanly finished and shift back into offense. Luffy and Law both remain in the danger zone as Doflamingo's string power carves through the battlefield. Page 11: Doflamingo's Athlete Thread slams through the palace area with a massive "Boooom," tossing debris and cutting across the fighters' path. Luffy and Law are thrown around by the shock of the attack. Trebol laughs, "Beeehehehe!" while Luffy, still rattled, asks, "What the hell is this?" The page shows Doflamingo's threads working at battlefield...
