The only place we've seen them together is during the war. Long before Ace
died, Flamingo disapeared (after talking to Moria).

So, how did he get the Mera Mera no mi? Is it a real one or just an artificial
one made with Smile?

How did Flamingo get the Mera Mera no mi?


As of now we don't know how he got hold of the mera mera no me. (My guess is
that we'll never really know.)

But it's definitely the real deal. Artificial fruits are zoan types and the
mera mera no mi is logia.

Doflamingo was there for the death of Ace, as were all the warlords. The
situation with Moria happened afterwards.

From what we've seen with Smiley and the axolotl fruit, it seems that when a
Devil Fruit eater dies, it takes over another fruit, somewhere in the world,
and with Smiley that fruit happened to be very nearby. So it is possible that
Doflamingo had an apple in his pocket which became the Mera Mera no Mi after
Ace's death.

But there are many possibilities, the current owner of the Mera Mera is Sabo,
which he gained possession of by defeating Diamanté and the others. He was
definitely nowhere near Ace, it is also easily possible that Doflamingo did
the same as Sabo did and just took it from whomever found it.
