After watching Kalifa enter, Senga nodded to Magellan and said,
"Bring it on!"
Magellan said no more, gritted his teeth, and unleashed a large amount of red venom at Senga.
A surging torrent of venom instantly engulfed Bullet's cell, swallowing Senga's figure whole.
Magellan immediately regretted launching the attack; he had overdone it and injected too much venom.
But he had no time to think about anything else, because Senga had been silent ever since she was submerged in the venom, and it was best to find Senga as soon as possible.
He pressed his hands to the ground, and the venom gathered along his hands. Gradually, a red figure appeared in the center of the cell.
The figure was naturally Senga. Magellan's heart sank when he saw Senga's body covered in venom, and he immediately accelerated the venom recovery process.
Suddenly, a Repulsion Force erupted from Senga's body, instantly shaking away all the venom covering him.
The splattered venom even splashed onto Magellan's face, but he seemed oblivious. At this moment, he was staring blankly at Senga in front of him, his gaze fixed on the horn that had suddenly appeared on the right side of Senga's forehead.
The shape of that horn can be described as very artistic. It is milky white in color and presents a beautiful arc shape, with some additional branches on it.
The Root has scaly protrusions, and the tip of the horn is a dark red, like faintly seeping blood.
As this horn grew, the purple of Senga's Rinnegan deepened, and her entire demeanor changed once again, giving people a contradictory feeling of being approachable yet distant.
Senga reached out to touch the horn growing on his forehead. The moment his hand touched the horn, a cool sensation traveled up his arm and into his body, invigorating him.
Looking at his body, which remained unharmed even after being washed by the venom, Senga smiled charmingly, leaving even Magellan, a straight man of steel, stunned.
He hadn't taken any defensive measures when facing Magellan's venom; he had simply withstood the attack with his bare body.
At first, it was indeed a bit uncomfortable, but as a swelling sensation came from his forehead and a horn grew out, he felt his body lighten, as if he were soaking in a hot spring while immersed in the highly toxic venom.
The horn had even absorbed some of the venom, which is why the tip of its horn showed a reddish tinge.
Now that Senga had gotten used to the horn's presence, with a thought, the entire horn was immediately enveloped in a milky white halo, and the red on it flowed like blood.
Magellan stared intently at the changes in the horn, sensing a familiar sensation emanating from it.
The "red blood" on the horn flowed downwards, exiting from the Root and then appearing on the skin between Senga's right eye and the Root the horn, looking like several small streams flowing into Senga's right Rinnegan.
As the "red blood" flowed in, Senga's right pupil turned blood red. Suddenly, he stretched out his arm towards Magellan and whispered,
"The Kōtakamimusubi-no-Mikoto".
Before Magellan could react, Senga's right arm transformed into a gigantic red poisonous dragon that lunged forward.
"Bang!"
The red Poison Dragon, carrying Magellan's massive body, charged into the opposite cell, its scream abruptly cut short.
Don't get me wrong, that wasn't Magellan's scream, but rather the scream of some unlucky guy with a bounty of hundreds of millions in the opposite cell.
Magellan struggled to crawl out of the venom, and before he could even understand what was happening, the sight around him made his eyes widen in disbelief, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
All the facilities in the cell, including the walls, had been corroded by the venom and turned into something like mud, melting away at a visible rate.
The most terrifying thing was a prisoner who was originally in the cell. He was now reduced to a few pale bone fragments. As soon as he saw these fragments, they turned into wisps of smoke and disappeared.
Magellan remembered that the cell contained a man named Basque Chote, an alcoholic.
After remembering the unfortunate fellow's name, he forgot about it. Quite a few important figures had died today; one more drunkard wouldn't make a difference.
Magellan struggled to sit up from the venom. He was a venomous being himself, so he wasn't afraid of the venom's corrosive effects. What made him uneasy was that this was clearly his ability.
Moreover, when this ability came from Senga's hands, it was more than twice as powerful as his previous attack in terms of both range and damage.
He was completely dumbfounded by what was happening before his eyes, and even forgot to care that he had become the subject of this experiment.
Standing in the opposite cell, Senga smiled at Magellan. Although he was the one who ordered Magellan to attack him, the guy was really ruthless. It must have been quite uncomfortable for him when he didn't have his horns.
So, the cunning man couldn't resist getting his revenge.
As for the venom attack that was even stronger than Magellan's, that was naturally an ability inherent in his horn.
That is like Otsutsuki, who absorbs the enemy's attacks and Kōtakamimusubi-no-Mikoto them many times over!
Furthermore, Senga's Kōtakamimusubi-no-Mikoto doesn't have the drawback of Otsutsuki Momoshiki, who can only use absorbed attacks once; he can use them infinitely.
Senga was still somewhat puzzled by this, because he had never heard of the horns on the heads of the Otsutsuki Clan having any additional abilities. After thinking about it, he could only conclude that it was a mutation.
Of course, mutation sounds a bit unpleasant; evolution would be a better term.
It has to be said that this trip to the Impel Down has brought me tremendous benefits. It can be said that the strength of Senga before and after the trip is now on a completely different level.
The remaining red venom coiled around Senga's right arm like a nimble little snake. He approached Magellan, extended a hand, and said apologetically,
"Excuse me, Director Magellan, I couldn't control my newly acquired power. Are you alright?"
Magellan shook his head blankly, then took Senga's hand and stood up from the venom. All he wanted now was to get back to the toilet and quietly reflect on what had happened that day.
Senga seemed to see through his intentions and asked,
"Chief Magellan, do you need to go to the bathroom again?"
"Ah... yes."
"Hmm, the side effects of the Venom-Venom Fruit are indeed troublesome. How about this, I have a way that will allow you to work normally while going to the toilet in the future. Do you want to try it?"
"What?! Of course I have to try!"
Seeing that Magellan had agreed, Senga's face lit up with a warm smile, which warmed Magellan's heart.
However, Door-Door Space, Kalifa glanced at Senga's smile and curled her lip in disapproval.
"The boss is up to his old tricks again!"
