Ivankov the Okama, Mass Poisoning
A few minutes ago,
Impel Down,
The 5.5 layer does not exist.
"Hey! Who exactly are you?"
Facing the solemn-faced Ambrio Ivankov, the White Knight calmly tilted his head.
Next to it was a row of monitors—the people here used these Image Den Den Mushi -shaped communication devices) connected to the Impel Down's control room to simultaneously obtain intelligence from the entire Impel Down.
"I am Roman, the strategist of the Straw Hat Pirates, the 'White Knight'. Of course—"
The knight in pure white armor waved his hand.
"I'm just a nobody, I'm here for my captain."
?
"Your captain—"
"It's him."
"Straw Hat Kid?" Looking in the direction the White Knight was pointing, there was a scene of him punching down the Minotaurus, the Jailer Beast.
"Yes, I hope to get your help."
·······
"Actually, I was also thinking of helping this kid. It's been many years since I've seen such a passionate young man dare to rush into Impel Down to save people. But—"
The tall man had a huge face, an unusually large, dark purple afro, long, thick eyelashes, light blue eyeshadow, and purple lip gloss. His clothing was also quite bizarre: fishnet stockings and a cloak, a tight-fitting, low-cut bodysuit (revealing a large skull tattoo on his abs). He combed his curled eyelashes.
However, it is two different things to actively save someone and to be asked to save someone by someone else.
"I see,"
The White Knight nodded, but if they Luffy until Luffy was poisoned before saving him... first, they would have to overcome the 3% chance of success, and then they would have wasted more than ten years of their lifespan. This was not something Roman wanted to see.
"I have a reason for asking you to save him—"
Splash splash~~
A Bounty Poster appeared in Roman's hand. It depicted a man wearing a dark green coat, with a red square tattoo on his left cheek. He had short black hair combed back, a fierce expression, and no eyebrows.
"This is?!"
Seeing Ivankov and Inazuma's drastically changed expressions, Roman waved the Bounty Poster in his hand.
"This is the leader of the 'Revolutionary Army,' known as the world's most vicious criminal. Meanwhile—"
His name is Monkey D. Dragon!
?!
"And this one, my captain—" the White Knight pointed to Luffy on the screen, "Is named Monkey D. Luffy."
!?!
"That's why I'm asking you for help."
"But... but how do you know all this—" Inazuma's words trailed off as he realized he'd asked a foolish question: if what he said was true, then knowing who his father was from his own captain wasn't surprising. However:
"You still haven't explained how you know about our 'Newkama Land'..."
"What's so strange about that? Isn't this a space that Mori, the commander of the Western Army of the Revolutionary Army, expanded between the fifth and sixth floors using the 'Push-Push Fruit'?"
The implication is that since the Revolutionary Army's "young master" is their own captain, it's not unreasonable for him to know some of the Revolutionary Army's secrets, right?
However, Luffy probably doesn't even know what his father looks like...
"I know your concerns,"
On the screen, a paper airplane carrying several people has begun to fly towards the warden's office, while the White Knight faces Ivankov and Inazuma with his hands outstretched.
"If I were an enemy instead of one of our own, would I need to waste my breath talking to you?"
"Just call Magellan, and a single Poison Cloud will turn this place into a dead zone. — Unless you can go days and nights without breathing."
"That's right,"
Ivankov, with his purple afro, pointed to his massive head. "If you were the enemy, our Newkama Land would be doomed. Since Straw Hat Kid is the son of a dragon, of course I'll do everything in my power to save him, but..."
Since the Straw Hat Kid came to rescue his Ace, does that mean Ace was also the son of a dragon?
Facing Whitebeard Pirates and the Revolutionary Army simultaneously, how exactly will the World Government—
"Damn it!!"
The White Knight suddenly turned around and looked at the monitor screen. In fact, he didn't need to look at the screen; he had already seen a huge purple Poison Dragon chasing after Luffy and the others through the white pigeons on the fourth floor.
"There's no time, I'm going to help Luffy and the others!"
"Hee-ho!! Straw Hat Kid is in danger, we're here too—"
Brush,
The White Knight reached out to stop Ivankov and Inazuma, saying, "Wait a minute—if you go out now, it will turn into a direct armed confrontation."
It's not that the 'Okama King' Ivankov in front of us isn't strong, it's just that our opponent is too monstrous! Therefore:
"I'll go save them! Although my combat skills aren't outstanding, when it comes to Devil Fruit ability— "
No one in this world is more versatile than me.
"Gomu Gomu no Jet Rocket!"
In the fourth level of the 'Scorching Hell,' Luffy and his crew fought and fled. He wrapped himself in a layer of paper, with candles covering his fists, and slammed them down on his opponent, but:
"Poison Shield!"
A jelly-like venom shot up from the ground, forming an inverted semicircle that instantly enveloped Magellan. This specially formulated venom possessed terrifying stickiness, absorbing Luffy's power layer by layer like incredibly resilient rubber, rendering his attacks in Gear Second Gear ineffective.
"Tsk, what a troublesome defense!"
Luffy's words made the white dove perched on his armor shoulder roll its eyes—"Those enemies who encounter you usually think the same thing."
"My turn— Poison Dragon!"
As Magellan strode forward, he waved his hand, and three enormous purple dragon heads suddenly lunged at him! Their massive mouths opened, each spewing forth torrents of black, purple, or brown water, which intertwined like a violent tsunami.
Of course, it was a highly toxic tsunami!
"Watch out, Luffy."
Following Roman's warning, Luffy immediately retreated, but his armor—
"You mistress, how come you went soft so quickly?"
Mr. 3 looked helpless as Luffy's candles melted and Luffy from his body.
"You all know that my candles are sensitive to high temperatures, right?"
This level is called 'Scorching Hell,' and as the name suggests, it's a terrifyingly high-temperature environment. Mr. 3's candle couldn't last long in this environment. After a few attacks, Luffy's armor began to melt. He was struggling to defend himself against Magellan's various venomous attacks.
Damn it! I forgot about that...
Since Roman obtained the Vivre Card to correct his deficiencies, he gradually stopped taking the threats of water and fire seriously. —Unexpectedly, the problem wasn't with his plan, but with his 'ally' failing him. As the candle melted, the thin layer of paper was no longer enough to stop Magellan's Poison Dragon ...
If you're going to do something, do it all the time.
"Mr. 3, release a large number of candles!"
"Oh, but—"
Although he subconsciously voiced his doubts, Mr. 3 still instantly released a large number of candles towards the other side.
"Candle wall!"
Unfortunately, under the high temperature, the Candle Wall, which should have been as solid as steel, became a soft, mushy mess...
"Buggy, bomb!"
With the sound of white doves, Buggy didn't hesitate to fly up and kick in mid-air: a 'specially made Buggy Ball's the size of a soybean flew towards Magellan and then exploded with a bang.
Rumble!!
A towering flame, accompanied by wildly flickering, blazing fire, instantly engulfed the massive body of the three-headed Poison Dragon. Shockwaves and tremors spread rapidly in all directions.
The venomous flames surged, and countless sparks of heat sprayed outwards from the explosion site like a volcanic eruption. The intense heat, mixed with purple flames, bloomed into eerie flowers as they fell. Even a tiny spark could leave a terrifying hole in a solid rock structure.
Candle - Poison Dragon - Buggy Ball Explosion!
"Quick, quick, let's run away!"
Taking advantage of the bomb igniting the candles on the ground, temporarily creating a towering wall of fire to separate the battlefield, Luffy the rear, immediately turned and ran! Buggy and Mr. 3 wished they had two more legs. Not far ahead of them:
"Hurry, the elevator is over here!"
Bon Clay, true to his reputation as an escape expert, has already found the elevator to the fifth floor and opened the gate, instantly increasing the escape speed of Luffy and his trio by three points.
A victorious escape is within reach! However:
Brush,
Just then, a tall figure burst forth from the poisonous flames, charging towards Luffy! Since the ranged venom attacks couldn't harm the heavily armored Luffy for the time being, Magellan simply removed the two demon horns from his head. —That's right, those two horns were actually weapons!
Splash splash~~
"Run, Luffy!"
The white paper on Luffy's body rapidly detached, forming a 'petite' White Knight who lunged at Magellan! Although he was immediately pierced and thrown away by Magellan's backhand, it bought Luffy a brief moment, allowing him to almost rush into the dark elevator.
"Ahhh, wait for me!!"
Bon Clay was right next to the elevator, Buggy could move forward in Four-Point Separation, and Luffy was the fastest Luffy, yet it was Mr. 3, who had the worst stamina, who ended up at the very back.
If I survive this ordeal, I'll definitely exercise every day!!!
Just as Mr. 3, tears and snot streaming down his face, was silently making his vow, a shadow fell over him from behind. And Magellan's impatient voice followed:
"Get out of my way!"
Brush,
There were also poisonous horns falling at breakneck speed.
It's over!
Not to mention that Magellan's attacks carried various terrifyingly potent poisons, just considering the opponent's strength, one strike would surely leave someone stabbed—
Bang!
Mr. 3, who suddenly fell to the ground, did not die. Instead, a figure with his arms in a swan pose blocked his way, and his feet were covered in venom.
"What are you standing there for? Let's go!"
"Mr. 2 Bon Clay!!"
Faced with Luffy's shout, Bon Clay, without turning his head, trembled and stood in front of Magellan.
"Hurry, let me help you, Your Majesty—"
"Gomu Gomu no Jet Gatling!"
??
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!
The dense barrage of fist marks landed on Magellan without hesitation, forcing him back while also staining his hands with venom! Luffy, without hesitation, stretched out his arm, grabbed Bon Clay and Mr. 3, and leaped backward, sending the four of them flying into the elevator together with Buggy.
"We'll go together!"
"A cornered dog will jump over the wall—"
Magellan frowned after taking a series of blows from Luffy; the attacks only caused him a slight, long-lost feeling of 'pain'. He then strode towards the elevator; without his warden's key, the elevator wouldn't start.
"You want to choose your own coffin? Then I'll grant your wish—?!"
However, when he stepped into the elevator, what he saw was:
It's completely empty!
Where are they?
