ch

Chapter 742 is titled "I'll Always Be Close To You".

Short Summary
Kyros life takes a turn for the better when he meets Scarlett, who initally distrusts him but comes around when he rescues her from pirates. She even faked her death so she can spend her life with him. Eventually they had a daughter who she named Rebecca. When Doflamingo took over, Kyros attemps to rescue King Riku from Doflamingo. He cuts off his leg and lunges at Doflamingo, only for Sugar to turn him into a toy. Kyros (now Thunder Soldier) flees the palace with Riku, who does not remember him. Kyros tries to protect Scarlett from danger but tragically failed when Diamante shot her when she went to get food for Rebecca.

Violet shook Kyros out of his flashback, when they noticed that extra soldiers are heading towards Doflamingo and with the element of suprise quickly slipping, the group prepares to attack Doflamingo.

In the Colosseum, Burgess's attacks are weakening the Colosseum's foundations, with soldiers remarking that another strong attack will cause them to break. Diamante reveals himself as the culprit who killed Rebecca's mother right in her face, leaving her venerable and in shock.

Franky lies defeated by the combined assault of the Marines and the Doflamingo family, and is calling for Usopp in his head to save the day. Down at the hidden harbor, all the toys are silently rooting for Usopp to succeed but he was no match for Trebol. As a final farewell, Sugar puts the apparently poisonous ball in Usopp's mouth and lets him swallow it. But Usopp screams with a horrible expression on his face that horrifies Sugar so much she loses conciousness.
