Donquixote Doflamingo, nicknamed Thien Da Xoa, is the captain of the Donquixote pirate crew, was once a member of the Shichibukai, and was also the most influential person in the Underworld under the alias `Joker`.
Doflamingo possesses the Ito Ito no Mi devil fruit, which helps him create and control extremely durable and sharp threads.
That’s why Doflamingo is one of the toughest warriors in One Piece.
1. Oda planned for Doflamingo to fight in Wano
One of Oda’s interesting explanations for One Piece fans’ questions on SBS episode 98 was related to Doflamingo, specifically his Joker alias.
2. The Joker alias fits the hierarchy and naming structure of the Beast Pirates
The naming of Kaido gang members is related to cards.
However, there seemed to be a change in Oda’s plans, so Doflamingo ended up losing to Luffy and was imprisoned by the navy before the Wano arc began.
3. What happened in the end, Doflamingo became the main boss in the Dressrosa arc
If Doflamingo is supposed to fight in Wano and become Kaido’s ally, he will definitely join the fight and confront many other characters fighting there.
That is, Dof wouldn’t have been the main villain defeated by Luffy in Dressrosa if he had fought in Wano.
