One Piece: Heaven-Defying Talent

Countless flames, like a Golden Crow Fire Rain, cascaded down from the sky, enveloping Doflamingo in a relentless assault. His expression twisted in shock—it was impossible to evade such an overwhelming attack.

Realizing his predicament, Doflamingo gritted his teeth and activated the full power of his String-String Fruit, pushing himself into his Awakening state. Threads of white silk emerged from the ground in all directions, coiling around him to form a defensive barrier.

The Golden Crow Fire Rain pelted the silk barrier, piercing through much of it but failing to breach entirely. However, the intense flames raged with such ferocity that they began to incinerate the threads, reducing them to ashes.

Inside his makeshift cocoon, Doflamingo's face darkened with frustration. With a swift motion, he spread his arms, dispersing the remnants of burning threads in a wide arc. Leaping free, he stretched his hands forward, manipulating the ground into a towering wave of white threads surging toward Rebecca.

But Rebecca stood her ground, unafraid. She clenched her right fist, summoning a torrent of flames that surged forward to meet Doflamingo's attack. The two forces collided with a thunderous roar, the white threads igniting upon contact with her blazing torrent. Against the intense heat of her Mera-Mera Fruit, now transformed into its powerful Golden Crow form, Doflamingo's threads stood no chance.

With a grim expression, Doflamingo summoned additional threads, reinforcing them with Armament Haki to forge countless sharp spears. The blackened tips gleamed menacingly as he launched them toward Rebecca.

Rebecca reacted instantly, spinning in place as golden flames swirled around her, forming a blazing shield. When Doflamingo's spears penetrated the flames, her powerful Haki burned through the incoming threads, melting them into blackened droplets that fell to the ground. Undeterred, Doflamingo infused his Haki with greater force, evolving it into the advanced Emission Armament Haki, the energy turning pink as it surged through his threads.

Yet before he could complete his attack, Rebecca moved. With her sharp battle instincts and powerful Observation Haki, she anticipated his next strike, dodging effortlessly and closing the distance. Doflamingo was skilled, but Rebecca's fire abilities and Haki proved too great a counter, pushing him further on the defensive.

"If this goes on, I'll be the one defeated," Doflamingo thought, realizing he'd have to deliver a decisive blow to end this fight.

Gathering all his strength, he infused his spears with concentrated pink Armament Haki, aiming a deadly assault at Rebecca. But this time, Rebecca was ready. Knowing the stakes, she unsheathed the Sword of the Four Souls, its blade radiating a fearsome energy that seemed to burn and slice through anything it touched.

As Doflamingo's Haki-infused spears shot forward, Rebecca swung her sword, unleashing a wave of energy so potent that it cut through his spears effortlessly, slashing them to pieces. Her blade's energy continued its path, slicing through the remaining threads and striking Doflamingo on the shoulder, drawing blood.

Doflamingo's expression turned grim, fear flickering in his eyes. This wasn't just any opponent; Rebecca had ascended to a level he hadn't anticipated. She dodged every one of his attacks, her Observation Haki making it nearly impossible for him to catch her off-guard. And that sword—imbued with some powerful, unknown energy—seemed to nullify his Devil Fruit abilities.

With that weapon in hand, Rebecca's power had multiplied tenfold. Doflamingo felt a pang of dread—if he continued, death seemed inevitable.

Not willing to risk it, he made a swift decision. Activating his fruit ability, he launched himself into the air, attempting to escape. Rebecca, sensing his intent, watched him retreat with a growing sense of confidence. Doflamingo, the "Heavenly Yaksha" and one of the Seven Warlords, was running from her.

Her Haki surged, fueled by her momentum and resolve. Victory and survival had honed her spirit, strengthening her Armament Haki. This was the power that came from overcoming challenges and facing strong opponents.

"Doflamingo, you're not getting away!" she shouted, activating her Lightning Dragon Swimming Technique to pursue him, a flash of lightning trailing in her wake. Doflamingo accelerated, stepping on the air with his Sky Walk, but Rebecca's speed quickly closed the gap between them.

Doflamingo glanced over his shoulder, seething with frustration as he muttered, "Damn that girl. If I'd known she'd become this powerful, I would've crushed her from the start. But it's too late now."

Yet he knew that there was no turning back. He continued to flee from Dressrosa, his mind racing for an escape plan.

Abruptly, he stopped mid-flight, his gaze shifting as he sneered at Rebecca. "You think I'm running away? Look behind you."

Rebecca paused, glancing back to see countless threads, glowing like sunbeams, rising ominously from the palace.
