## One Piece Chapter 698, pages 7-8: Doflamingo Appears - Chapter: 698 - Pages: 7-8 - Characters: Donquixote Doflamingo, G-5 Marines, Smoker, Vergo ### Summary Page 7: G-5 charges anyway, but their courage changes nothing. A Marine shouts, "LAW ASIDE STRAWHAT IS JUST A COMMON PIRATE!!" Another demands, "NOW WHERE HAVE THEY RUN OFF TO!!" Doflamingo answers by cutting through the squad with invisible force. Marines are flung backward, bodies twisting through the air as the page fills with impact sounds and screams: "GYAHH HHHHH HHHH!!" He moves with terrifying ease, leaving men sprawled across the snow while he turns his head as if bored by their resistance. The attack is not a formal fight; it is a demonstration. Anyone left on Punk Hazard who tries to stand between Doflamingo and the fugitives is brushed aside before they can become an obstacle. Page 8: Doflamingo looks out over the snow and speaks Law's underworld name: "JOKER." The answer is uncertain: "...WELL, I DON'T REALLY KNOW." Smoker, badly wounded, tries to process the Straw Hats' route: "I'M PLANNING ON HEADING TO GREEN BIT NOW, BUT..." Doflamingo cuts through the uncertainty with anger: "WHAT DIRECTION DID THOSE BRATS HEAD IN!!?" The Marines realize the pirates have slipped away: "...SO THEY'RE GONE THEN!?" One says, "THEY SLIPPED RIGHT THROUGH OUR FINGERS. I'LL HAVE A LOT TO ANSWER FOR TO BASE COMMANDER VERGO..." Another calls to Smoker: "SMO-YA..." Smoker's reply is grimly dry even now: "BUT YOU... IT SEEMS LIKE YOU KNOW A BIT TOO MUCH...!!" Then Doflamingo strikes, and the cry rises from the smoke: "VICE ADMIRAL SMO!!"
