Short Summary
Doflamingo has a nightmare of the suffering his family had endured after they renounced their status, but wakes up at the sound of ringing and hears of his brother's injury. He then remembers the time his father gave up the Celestial Dragon status and moved the family to a northern country, but their stay turned to a fight for survival when the locals were discovered to carry a deep hatred for the World Nobles.

Law is then brought in front of Doflamingo who then declares Law to become an official member of the Donquixote Pirates. He goes on by saying if Law finds himself a Devil Fruit that can cure his illness, he will train Law to be his right-hand man in the future. Law then witnesses Corazon lying to Doflamingo over the cause of his injury, protecting him.

The next two years were spent accompanying the crew in their acts of piracy as well as his training and lessons with them. One day, Law reveals his full name, Trafalgar D. Water Law, to Buffalo and Baby 5, but is then grabbed quickly by Corazon and carried away to a remote area. Here, Corazon speaks to Law for the first time, telling him to get away from Doflamingo.

Long Summary
Doflamingo has a nightmare about how he and his family were hung off a building by a large mob, who were eager to get avenge the wrongs they suffered at the hands of the World Nobles. The mob debates on whether to kill them or make them suffer, as well as how best to make them suffer. Individual people tell the Donquixote family about the atrocities the World Nobles inflicted on them and their loved ones, and how the tax the World Nobles demanded had sent them into poverty. One person taunts Doflamingo's family about how terrible the World Nobles were, and asks them if they even know what pain and suffering really are. Suddenly, Doflamingo's Den Den Mushi rings, waking him up in a cold sweat. Shaking and breathing heavily, Doflamingo puts his glasses on, douses himself with drink, and goes to pick up the phone.

33 years ago in Mariejois, Donquixote Homing, Doflamingo's father, prepares to leave the life of a World Noble along with his wife and two children. The other World Nobles are shocked and angry about Homing's desire to leave as well as his belief that he was only human. The Donquixotes are taken to North End, a World Government non-member nation, and are given a mansion and a small fortune to live a quiet life, as is Homing's desire. Doflamingo, however, does not realize what his father's action meant, and immediately asks to get some slaves. When Doflamingo heads onto the streets, he is shocked to find that the other citizens won't bow down to him, and is disoriented by his lack of a weapon on hand. Doflamingo's loud complaints alert the people about the Donquixotes' heritage, and they burn down the Donquixote mansion.
