Ace, Donquixote Doflamingo ### Summary Page 0: The chapter opens with a full-color spread labeled "Chapter 703 - Waiting Room." The Straw Hat crew are arranged in a playful ocean rescue scene under the banner "We'll send an SOS to the world," with Luffy at the center, the others posed around sharks, ropes, floats, and sea-themed props. It is decorative rather than plot action, but it establishes the official chapter title. Page 1: The streets of Dressrosa settle around the shocking explanation of the prize. Someone reasons aloud, "So it seems like two copies of the same Devil Fruit can never exist at the same time," and then the impossible question hangs there: "But... why's the Mera Mera no Mi here...?" The answer comes through the strange cycle of Devil Fruits. "They say that when an ability user dies, the fruit with his former power is reborn somewhere in this world." Ace's "Firefist" fruit was reincarnated after his death, and without anyone knowing, Young Master was able to obtain the Mera Mera no Mi. The prize is no casual bait: "When it came to putting up a Logia fruit as a prize for this event... even Young Master was hesitant...!!" For anyone who could seize it, "Getting one's hands on something like that... my life would be changed forever." A protest bursts from the group: "Ehh!? You think I'd ever let you eat it!!?"
