• Uses her All-Seeing Eye (Glare-Glare Fruit) to scry into Doflamingo’s palace from the plateau and locates the captive Mansherry in a small room behind the chapel — the old “punishment room” she and the dwarves knew as children (“Is that where you’ve been, Mansherry?!”, pp. 3, 5–6).

Dressrosa — Viola, the Riku Second Princess (flashback) (Ch. 742)

• Named on-page “Viola” again as the Tontatta dwarf Wicca cries “Pwincess Viola!!” (p. 5). Reconfirms she is a Riku princess: daughter of the deposed Riku king and elder-sister of Rebecca’s late mother, making Rebecca her niece / the king’s granddaughter (pp. 5–6).
• Has been surveilling everyone’s plans with her power — “Have you forgotten my powers? …I even know that you’ve begun to fight” (p. 5) — and watched over Rebecca’s upbringing “alongside the one-legged soldier” (the toy soldier; see Kyros).
• Rescues Sanji and Wicca at the palace lift, then opens the secret Riku-Dynasty escape shaft up to the palace — stairs + a cargo pulley, “not even Doflamingo knows of this shaft” (pp. 4–7).

Dressrosa — revealed as the royal Viola; guides the Straw Hats (Ch. 734)

Dressrosa (Ch. 729) — referenced

• Doflamingo states “Violet betrayed us” (p. 6), confirming her defection to Luffy’s side from the enemy’s mouth.

Dressrosa — Violet revealed & defects (Ch. 712)

• On-page caption confirms her as a Donquixote Family (★Trebol Army) assassin (p. 3); she is the one who captured and was beating/mind-reading the captive Sanji 30 minutes before the Caesar hand-off.
• Her Devil Fruit is named: the Glare-Glare Fruit, which turned her into “an eagle-eyed seer at the falsehoods within your mind” — clairvoyance, lie-detection and mind-reading (Peeping Mind, p. 6) (p. 5).
• Sanji’s perversion-saturated mind defeats her power (“such vulgarity!!”), and his sincere belief in her tears (“I will never doubt a woman’s tears”) breaks her resolve (pp. 6-7).
• Defects: blasts the Trebol Army with Hierro Lagrima (Tear-Whales) (p. 8), frees Sanji, and shows him the memory proving the alliance walked into Doflamingo’s trap (p. 9); begs him to flee and “warn your friends” (p. 12). Reveals she is “too terrified of [Doflamingo] to make my escape.”

Dressrosa — the betraying officer’s map (Ch. 713)

• Revealed as a Donquixote Family officer who has turned traitor: “I bet all the other officers know about my betrayal by now” (p. 14).
• Hands Sanji a map to the secret factory — “publically, it’s known as the HOUSE OF TOYS” — and sets a rendezvous at the Western Harbor to get the crew off the island (pp. 14-15).

Dressrosa — defected; the All-Seeing Eye’s reach (Ch. 723)

• Has defected from Doflamingo and run off with Sanji; per the Donquixote officers she “eliminates her own subordinates and runs off with him,” derailing the plan to have her read the enemy’s plans out of Sanji’s head (p. 4).
• Reveals her Devil-Fruit power’s scope: the “All-Seeing Eye” reaches 2,500 miles and can borrow the sight of birds (Glare-Glare Fruit), so she sees everything in Dressrosa from one spot — “nobody can catch me” (p. 7). Counts the Navy fleet (≈3,000 sailors, 4 battleships) and warns Sanji’s crew to change rendezvous (pp. 6–7).

Dressrosa — parting with Sanji (Ch. 725)

• Declines to flee with the Straw Hats: “It’s too bad I can’t go with you, but at least you’ll be safe.” Says she has “asked an associate of mine for help” and that “the government is going to protect me now” (p. 7).
• Thanks Sanji for the courage to move on; warns him the Sunny is “under attack by Fighting Fish!!” and sends him to help (pp. 7–8).

Dressrosa — true identity revealed: Princess Viola of the Riku line (Ch. 728)

• Revealed to be Princess Viola, daughter of the deposed King Riku and a princess of the Riku royal line (pp. 3, 11–12). In the ten-years-ago coup flashback she is abducted from the palace by Monet (“Princess Viola’s been kidnapped!!!”, p. 3).
• Became the Donquixote Family officer “Violet” through a bargain: she serves Doflamingo — who “was quite drawn to the powers of Princess Viola” — on the condition that he not murder her father (”…I’ll follow your orders!! If you promise not to murder my father,” p. 12). She still works for him in the present day. See Violas Officer Loyalty Is A Hostage Bargain For Her Father.

Dressrosa — accepts the Riku princess role (Ch. 797)

• Carried along by Luffy beside Rebecca during the escape; smiles on the father-daughter reunion (“Yes… this was her decision”) (pp. 8–16).
• With Rebecca declining the throne, accepts becoming the Riku princess/heir at King Riku’s request — “Will you be the princess for me?!” — as Riku notes “You can’t fight your blood” (p. 16).
