Bellamy was well aware that Law certainly didn't know about Mansherry's existence. In fact, there were probably no more than ten people in the entire world who knew about the Heal-Heal Fruit and fully understood its capabilities. Bellamy suspected that even Doflamingo might not be fully aware of Mansherry's most overpowered ability.
The user could sacrifice their own lifespan to heal anything.
The most insane part of the Heal-Heal Fruit lay in those two words: "heal anything." It could even restore damaged inorganic matter. There was almost nothing in the world that the user of the Heal-Heal Fruit couldn't repair.
Imagine if Mansherry's lifespan was sacrificed to heal Whitebeard back to his prime. What kind of scene would that be? A powerhouse at his peak, with a lifetime of combat experience from warring on the seas, forced to lie on a sickbed, gasping for breath due to his failing body. The combat experience of an old Whitebeard combined with the physical condition of a young Whitebeard—it was terrifying to even imagine how strong that monster would become.
Why was Bellamy so fixated on Mansherry? It wasn't just for his own physical reasons. Overdrafting a few years of his life was no big deal in his eyes. The main reason was that he wanted to give the Marines a big gift during the Summit War!
That's right. Bellamy's true intention was to forcibly heal Whitebeard and then use the opportunity to completely overturn Marine Headquarters. Although he didn't know if Mansherry's lifespan would be enough to pay such a huge price, with Mansherry plus Law—the two top doctors in the world—even if they couldn't restore Whitebeard to his peak, it would be enough to cure all his injuries and ailments.
The scene would certainly be interesting, wouldn't it? It would be broadcast live to the entire world. Bellamy had even thought about what lines he would say when he made his entrance.
So, no matter what, Bellamy had to get his hands on Mansherry, the princess of the Tontatta Kingdom. His plan was simple: find Viola, use her clairvoyance to locate where Mansherry was being held, then find Mansherry and present his terms. He would save the Tontatta tribe, but the price would be her life. The Tontatta were simple and kind-hearted by nature, and Mansherry was their princess. How could she refuse such a request?
Bellamy was determined to fight Doflamingo to the death. As long as he won in the end, the user of the Heal-Heal Fruit would be his. The entire Tontatta tribe was currently enslaved by the Donquixote Family, their situation utterly miserable. Whoever liberated Dressrosa would become the great benefactor of the Tontatta. Asking for their princess in return for such a favor wasn't too much, was it? In Bellamy's view, the Tontatta were getting a great deal.
As for Mansherry? Who cared what she thought. From the moment she ate the Heal-Heal Fruit, her fate was sealed. Without the power to protect herself, she was destined to become a treasure to be fought over. If she wanted to maintain her dignity, too bad. She was too weak; she didn't deserve it.
Half a month later, the Bellamy Pirates successfully arrived near Dressrosa. Most of Kaido's territory was in the first half of the New World, and Dressrosa was no exception. Doflamingo had chosen to seize this country not only because it was the former territory of the Donquixote Family but also for logistical reasons. His status was very special, and his relationship with the Celestial Dragons was extremely complex. Doflamingo was probably the only pirate in the world who could freely enter and exit the Red Line. This was a major reason why he was such an important dark broker in the underworld. With this special channel, he could make a fortune just by running a logistics business.
But Doflamingo wanted more. He wasn't just in logistics; he was in smuggling. Or perhaps it shouldn't even be called smuggling. With his Celestial Dragon connections, he was openly trafficking arms, slaves, and all sorts of illicit goods.
Upon arriving in these waters, as planned, Law and Drake immediately took a small boat to infiltrate Dressrosa. Bellamy and the others would wait on a nearby small island. According to their agreement, they would make brief contact every half-day. If contact was lost, it meant they had encountered a special situation. If contact was lost for more than three days, it meant something had gone wrong, and they had likely fallen into enemy hands. If that happened, according to the plan, Bellamy would launch a direct assault. If everything went smoothly, they would bring Viola back.
Bellamy wanted to meet this woman in person. His information was, after all, from his past life. He needed to see the situation for himself to be at ease. This was a battle that risked everyone's lives; he couldn't be too cautious. However, considering that Viola's own situation might not be good, if a meeting was impossible, Bellamy might have to move up his timeline.
"Dressrosa!"
This country was quite famous. As far back as 900 years ago, the ruling family of the Dressrosa Kingdom was the Donquixote Family. Later, they left Dressrosa to join the World Government and become Celestial Dragons. At that time, the Tontatta of Dressrosa were used as slave labor underground. Thanks to their work, the kingdom of Dressrosa was exceptionally wealthy.
After the Donquixote Family left, the Riku family became the new royalty. The king at that time apologized to the Tontatta and abolished their slavery. 400 years ago, a group of humans caused trouble in Dressrosa. "Noland the Liar" appeared, teamed up with the Tontatta to defeat them, and taught the Tontatta about botany, becoming a great hero in their eyes.
About nine years ago, Doflamingo returned to Dressrosa with his executives. He appeared before King Riku and threatened him to gather a sum of 10 billion Beri in one day, or he would invade. King Riku, concerned for the safety of his people, pleaded with the citizens of Dressrosa to give him all their cash. But he fell right into Doflamingo's trap. Doflamingo used his Devil Fruit ability to control the king, making him kill his own soldiers and citizens and even start fires in the towns. The people of the nation were disgusted by his seemingly tyrannical actions. Doflamingo then seized the opportunity to overthrow his regime and become king. The Riku family was disgraced and reviled by the populace. King Riku disappeared and his whereabouts are still unknown.
The moment the Riku family fell, tragedy befell the Tontatta living in the country. After more than 900 years, they were once again oppressed by the Donquixote Family. Their princess was kidnapped, and 500 of their able-bodied young men were taken to work as forced labor in factories. The entire Tontatta population was just a little over 3,000. Losing so many of their young men had, in fact, pushed the Tontatta to the brink of extinction.
