Caribou's Kehihihihi in the New World Vol. 19 - "Granny drives away the mysterious soldiers."

Short Summary
In a flashback, Law tells Luffy not to underestimate the Yonko, as they once had even competed against Whitebeard for territory. Law tells him that the chance of defeating Kaido would be around 30 percent. Back to the present, the Straw Hats and G-5 part ways. G-5 claims to hate pirates and the kids are seen crying, unable to say goodbye to the Straw Hats, but the Marines reveal that they badmouth the crew because if they don't, they will come to love them. Flying over the ocean, Doflamingo approaches a life raft with Baby 5 and Buffalo's heads hanging on it, which were apparently cut off by Law. They tell him that they have failed to obtain Caesar, to which Doflamingo replies it is alright since they were only obeying orders. Law's Den Den Mushi is seen on the raft, when it starts talking to Doflamingo. Law tells him that he needs to quit the Shichibukai to get Caesar back or else Kaido will wipe him out, infuriating Doflamingo.
