Shiryu of the Rain
"Now explain in detail the details of the mission failure," Long said thoughtfully. "Logically speaking, Hac is experienced and shouldn't have been discovered by the Navy."
"Hmm!" Koala nodded, her lips pursed, her heart filled with grievance. They had barely escaped from the clutches of that Nightmare demon, and their first mission after a period of recuperation had ended in such a major setback, making her wonder if she was cursed.
"Actually, I also find it strange. To ensure the safety of the transaction, we even randomly selected the route and location, and didn't even have time to inform the other party. Logically, it should have been foolproof, but we were intercepted by the Navy halfway through." Koala frowned and said rather dejectedly, "Perhaps we were just unlucky and happened to run into a large Navy force."
Long asked calmly, "The main force of the navy?"
"That's right. It seems to be a large force that's bringing all the captured pirates to Impel Down. There are three Marine Vice Admiral alone: Onigumo, Doberman ..." Koala said through gritted teeth, "And Drake. If it weren't for this guy, Sabo wouldn't have been so badly injured, and Master Hac wouldn't have been captured alive."
"Drake?" Dragon recalled the information in his mind and said seriously, "That guy is indeed a big shot. After his crushing defeat at the hands of Nightmare, who had just set sail three years ago, he did not become decadent or negative. Instead, he turned his grief and anger into strength, constantly going to sea to fight pirates, walking on the edge of life and death to unleash his potential. In just three years, he completed the transformation from Rear Admiral to Vice Admiral, and there is even a trend of him being promoted to Admiral Candidate. It is not surprising that you were defeated by him."
Then Long said with a hint of amusement, "With his terrifying rate of progress, he could make any enemy panic and lose sleep. Unfortunately, his enemy is Nightmare Roy, a monster even more terrifying than him. No matter how hard Drake tries, he can only widen the gap between them."
"But... Chief," Koala asked worriedly, "What about Master Hac? He'll definitely be thrown into Impel Down, a place that's rumored to be even more terrifying than hell!"
"Indeed, it's no exaggeration to call it hell!" Having had his own experience in the Navy, Dragon knew all too well what kind of hell Impel Down was. It was a prison that could drive anyone to despair, and that was why Golden Lion's escape from Impel Down twenty years ago was so shocking to the world.
"Perhaps Hac will have to suffer for now. When the time is right, I will definitely lead them out of that prison. However..." The dragon gently raised his right hand, and in the sunlight, the ring shimmered with a vibrant green light. "Nightmare, what exactly do you mean by this 'opportunity'?"
Impel Down Great Prison, six floors underground.
"After all these years, new people have finally joined us."
"Newcomers to the group should report their measurements... cough cough, I misspoke, I meant to report their bounty."
"Hehe, what do I see? A Fish-Man. Since when can such a lowly race stir up waves on the sea?"
"Newcomer, cherish your past memories, because they will be the only things that will allow you to forget your pain in the rest of your life, hahaha."
Hac's expression was serious, and he didn't say a word. If it weren't for his special status as a member of the Revolutionary Army, he wouldn't have been able to enjoy the "treatment" of a Level 6 with his strength.
Plop plop.
A series of clear footsteps approached from afar, instantly silencing the noisy and chaotic sixth basement level. Apart from a few people, most of the prisoners looked toward the source of the sound with fear, after all, that was a bloodthirsty devil who could execute prisoners at will.
Wearing a pilot's cap, smoking a cigar, and wiping his hands, Muramasa Shiryu of the Rain the Rain, who is known as one of the two aces along with the warden of Impel Down, once again arrived at the prison on the sixth underground level.
"Is this Senior Executive of the Revolutionary Army are capable of? How boring." Shiryu could clearly sense that the Fish-Man in front of him was completely at the bottom of the hierarchy in this level of prison.
Many prisoners were completely bewildered. Most of them had been sentenced to death or life imprisonment and had never even heard of the Revolutionary Army before being thrown into Impel Down. However, the fact that the Navy took such a Senior Executive seriously shows that the Revolutionary Army was not to be underestimated.
Hac, who was initially too intimidated by Shiryu's terrifying killing intent to look directly at him, suddenly stiffened. As if losing control of his body, he calmly raised his head and looked directly into Shiryu's eyes, his pupils gleaming with a faint rainbow of light.
Shiryu aback at first, then unleashed his killing intent without reservation and burst into maniacal laughter. "Hahahaha, interesting, I didn't expect to see such an interesting scene today."
Shiryu was already extremely powerful. Even in the Sixth Level, which imprisoned countless heinous criminals, few could rival his strength. Not to mention that these prisoners were already weakened beyond recognition after decades of imprisonment. Under his rampant killing intent, few prisoners could remain calm. They were all gritting their teeth and holding on, like a lone boat on the sea, in danger of capsizing at any moment.
Suddenly, Shiryu his murderous aura and walked out without saying a word, leaving behind a group of bewildered prisoners looking at each other in confusion.
"Pah, what's gotten into this devil again today!" one of the pirates said, clearly annoyed.
"Who knows? But people like him are just naturally..."
Laugh!
A pale blue sword Sword Qi flew from the depths of the passage, tearing the two resentful pirates to shreds. Blood splattered all over the surrounding prisoners, but they dared not utter a single disrespectful word. After all, the example before them was right in front of them, so how could they dare to say anything more?
However, although they dared not Shiryu, they could vent their anger on Hac.
"Damn fish, tell me about the situation on the high seas."
"What exactly is your damn Revolutionary Army?"
"What exactly did that guy mean by what he just said to you?"
In the New World, there are countless people with Conqueror's Haki. The prisoners who can be held in the sixth underground level are not simple people. Conqueror's Haki is naturally not a rare thing. Moreover, for them, whose physical actions are controlled, Conqueror's Haki is the only means to influence others.
Therefore, seeing that Hac did not react to their provocations, the group of unruly thugs decisively unleashed their Conqueror's Haki. Although their Conqueror's Haki was only at the most basic stage, when more than a dozen streams of Conqueror's Haki converged into a torrent, even the prison walls trembled slightly, and dust fell in a flurry.
Most pirates were already used to this kind of bullying of newcomers. Those who considered themselves superior might not bother to participate, but they could treat it as a form of entertainment and thus watched with great interest.
Boom!
An extremely ferocious Conqueror's Haki erupted from Hac's body, like black lightning in the void. Even the pirates who possessed Conqueror's Haki were stunned into unconsciousness, collapsing to the ground foaming at the mouth. Only a few people managed to withstand this terrifying aura.
For example, Catarina Devon the Crescent Moon Hunter, Avalo Pizarro the Evil King, Byrnndi World the World Destroyer, and... Patrick Redfield the Redfield.
Although they were not unconscious, they were still extremely wary of that figure.
"Hac" glanced with satisfaction at the remaining survivors and chuckled sinisterly, "You bunch of scum, do you want to leave this hell?"
