It has been over a week since Trafalgar Law joined the Donquixote Pirates and still stays despite Corazon's brutal methods. Law is then revealed to be a survivor of Flevance, a once prosperous country that no longer exists and that he escaped under a pile of corpses. While the Donquixote Pirates continue their raids, Baby 5 asks Gladius of the kingdom Law was part of and he reveals its history. The kingdom was called the "White City" because of a material called Amber Lead which gave riches to all the inhabitants of the city. But a century ago, the World Government discovered that it was poisonous, but hid the fact because of the wealth it brings. Eventually the poison grew more potent in every generation, causing shorter lifespans and painful deaths, and the neighboring countries, fearing that the disease was contagious, quarantined Flevance. While the royalty of Flevance were evacuated, the citizens were mercilessly butchered by the squads of soldiers sent to exterminate them, despite their efforts to fight back. Law was there with his sister and parents along with the local orphanage while his father was trying to find a way to cure the disease, but tragedy struck when everyone Law knew was killed by the soldiers leaving him the only survivor. Law then finds Corazon reading a newspaper and quickly attacks him from behind, stabbing him, but the attack is witnessed by Buffalo, who rushes to report to Doflamingo; who decreed the rule that anyone who harms even a single hair on his brother will die by his hand.
