Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1:
Disco stood before the human auction house, once flourishing under his rule but now reduced to ruins. Every day, he would come here, searching through the wreckage of his former auction, only to leave disappointed.
The auction house, which he had painstakingly built, was now a thing of the past due to the actions of ruthless hunters. Not only had his auction house been leveled, but other ones involved in human trafficking had also suffered the same fate.
Today, however, was different from the previous days. Disco knew that it was all over.
"Why did you spare me until now? Were you planning to make an example of me?" he uttered, not talking to himself.
Behind him stood five hunters, dressed in their uniforms.
"The guild master's orders were clear: apprehend him when the time is right. Maybe witnessing the consequences of his sins from a different perspective will lead to repentance," one of the hunters explained.
Hearing this, Disco's body trembled, and tears streamed down his face. He was crying, but the hunters behind him remained unmoved by his display of emotions.
"Emmanuel Disco, you are under arrest. Do not resist. Any movement or aggression will be used against you in court. You have the right to appoint a lawyer, and if you cannot afford one, the court will provide one for you. You are charged with crimes including human trafficking, murder, rape, and fraud..."
Disco felt a powerful force immobilizing him, rendering him unable to move or speak. One of the hunters, possessing a devil fruit ability, had activated his power to manipulate the air around Disco, turning him into a human lock.
As the manga book slipped from Disco's hand, the moment he tried to grasp it, it fell open. The hunters paid no attention to its contents.
Within the manga's pages, a familiar face appearedDonquixote Doflamingo, smiling cunningly.

"One Piece" Events:
[Sabaody Archipelago, Grove 1, Human Shop, Backstage.]
((Fufufufufufu!!))
The strange laughter echoed from the Den Den Mushi.
"This is no laughing matter!! Isn't this your shop!?" exclaimed Disco.
"Haa... Haa... Mister Doflamingo, where are you...!!!?"
"The shop's reputation will be tarnished, and considering Saint Rosward's family, they'll likely blame us for this...!! You have to do something!!"
((Fufufufu!! You know... The human trade is already old news, idiot!!))
"Eh!?...!!?" Disco was surprised to hear that.
((We're in the age of "Smiles." Don't call me again, Disco. I'll leave the shop to you...!! Fufufufu!!))
...
In the treacherous waters of the New World, a momentous revelation unfolded:
"This kid... he's the real boss and the mastermind behind Disco," Whitebeard remarked, astonishment etched across his face.
"What does he mean by 'this is the era of smiles'? Strange, why do I sense something disgusting from this word, contrary to its meaning," Roger pondered, his brows furrowed in contemplation.
"Look at this, guys," Rayleigh called out, drawing everyone's attention.
"Gurararara!!"
"Wahahaha!!"
Doflamingo's last words sent ripples of amusement through the crew, and both Whitebeard and Roger burst into laughter, their hearty voices resonating across the ship.
"The Whitebeard Pirates versus The Royal Shichibukai?" Marco questioned a glint of excitement in his eyes.
"It seems that the war is inevitable! Haha! I have to find big brother Rob and urge him to hurry up and draw the story!" Shanks exclaimed, enthusiasm brimming within them.
"I want to see the events of the war right away!"
"I'm so excited!"
"And so am I!"
"We'll surely defeat the damn Navy!"
The high spirit of the mighty Whitebeard Pirates soared to new heights, their determination to face whatever challenges lay ahead unwavering.
