Doflamingo swore to destroy the very world that his former fellow Celestial Dragons lord over. When Doflamingo returned to North Blue after escaping Mary Geoise, his four friends swore their loyalty to Doflamingo and said that no one would stand against Doflamingo, the future Pirate King, as he stood on a pile of wreckage and they bowed before him. Whatever displeased Doflamingo was swiftly and utterly destroyed by the four loyal friends, whether it was someone who offended him or a town with poorly paved streets. This left a swath of destruction and corpses in their wake, and the crew became infamous in North Blue.<span class="placeholder placeholder-double-brackets" data-rte-instance="1081-19930784645dea8436ea1de" data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22double-brackets%22%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%7B%7BQref%7Cname%3Dc782%7D%7D%22%2C%22lineStart%22%3A%22%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Qref%22%2C%22placeholder%22%3A1%7D" contenteditable="false">​<sup id="cite_ref-c782_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-c782-1">[2]</a></sup>​</span> </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1"><img data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22image%22%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BFile%3ADonquixote%20Pirates%2016%20Years%20Ago.png%7Cthumb%7C300px%7CThe%20Donquixote%20Pirates%2016%20years%20ago%2C%20minus%20Vergo%2C%20who%20was%20away%20on%20duty.%5D%5D%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Donquixote_Pirates_16_Years_Ago.png%22%2C%22params%22%3A%7B%22alt%22%3A%22Donquixote%20Pirates%2016%20Years%20Ago%22%2C%22thumbnail%22%3Atrue%2C%22caption%22%3A%22The%20Donquixote%20Pirates%2016%20years%20ago%2C%20minus%20Vergo%2C%20who%20was%20away%20on%20duty.%22%2C%22width%22%3A300%2C%22captionParsed%22%3A%22The%20Donquixote%20Pirates%2016%20years%20ago%2C%20minus%20Vergo%2C%20who%20was%20away%20on%20duty.%22%7D%7D" data-rte-instance="1081-19930784645dea8436ea1de" alt="" src="https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/onepiece/images/4/44/Donquixote_Pirates_16_Years_Ago.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/300?cb=20150712150319" width="300" height="90" class="image thumb withCaption" data-image-name="Donquixote Pirates 16 Years Ago.png" data-image-key="Donquixote_Pirates_16_Years_Ago.png" type="image" /> </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">They then gathered a crew, with Doflamingo being the captain, while Rosinante later on became the second Corazon after Vergo retired from the position and left to join the marines as a spy for Doflamingo.

After losing all his forces save for Trebol, Doflamingo started to withdraw his Birdcage. Later, Trebol tried to triggered an suicide explosion on the palace after hearing Law insult him and the other elite officers leaving the captain the sole member left fighting. Law was evacuated from the battle by Monkey D. Luffy who decided to face the tyrant king on his own and end his madness. Doflamingo informed Luffy that the time for the Birdcage was depleting and he better defeat him soon with that Luffy engaged Doflamingo and activate his new technique: <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Gear%20Fourth%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Gear%20Fourth%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BGear%20Fourth%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="1081-19930784645dea8436ea1de" href="/wiki/Gear_Fourth" title="Gear Fourth" class="mw-redirect">Gear Fourth</a>. </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">With Gear Fourth activated, the battle turned to Luffy's favor who dealt several powerful blows to the Shichibukai, resorting Doflamingo to use his "Awakened" Devil Fruit powers in his Ito Ito No Mi.

Doflamingo uses his awakened powers and begins his brutal assault against the straw hat captain. He then uses Parasite to force Luffy to him, but the latter breaks free with Gear Fourth and they take their fight to the sky. Doflamingo mocked him stating a mere commoner cannot defeat him as he uses Spider Web and Godthread simultaneously. Luffy counters with his King Kong Gun that, despite Doflamingo trying to counter, breaks through his defenses and slammed Doflamingo into the ground. The force was so powerful that it upturned an entire section of the city in the impact and shattered his trademark sunglasses, finally defeating the Shichibukai and sent him crashing through the ground where he laid unconscious in the underground trade port.

As the Marines gathered up most of the top members of the crew, Admiral Issho apologized to the citizens for allowing Doflamingo to take power over the peaceful kingdom. Viola was pardoned as her joining was under duress, while Baby 5 and Bellamy were not seen being arrested either.
