Impel Down (7)

Magellan temporarily ignored Emporio Ivankov and took the initiative to walk towards the enemy led by the God Slayer. "Imper's stability is not something that mere One Piece like you can break."

"With me here, no one is leaving this place..."

"Your only fate is to stay in prison and face trial."

As Magellan spoke, the venom on his body immediately began to expand, and the aura emanating from him gave Dom and Rob Lucci the illusion of seeing the 'Shiki' again. Before they came, the two knew that the Warden of Impel Down, was incredibly terrifying and was known as the strongest man in the entire Great Impel Down.

Even the monsters imprisoned in the level 6 Infinite Hell cannot steal this title.

But I didn't have a real feeling about it... After seeing Magellan this time, I finally understood... why, over the years, only Shiki has successfully escaped from this deep-sea prison, and there has been no second successful escapee.

"It seems... there's nothing for me to do here."

As Magellan prepared to fight the God Slayer, the Okama King, with his exaggerated makeup and afro-like hairstyle, smiled slightly and his figure flashed several times. Using the help of the buildings, he jumped behind the members of the Hell Pirates and then chased after the Straw Hat Pirates.

Crocodile glanced back at Emporio Ivankov with a surprised look in his eyes.

It was as if they hadn't expected to run into Emporio Ivankov here.

He clearly knew the latter... and the two had interacted in their early years.

To put it simply, it's more than just knowing each other... Emporio Ivankov knows some of his secrets.

If it were anyone else, he would have already made a move.

"Is he planning to wipe us all out in one fell swoop?"

Looking at Magellan's eyes and aura, Dom said coldly.

That's a bit too arrogant.

Even a Marine Admiral wouldn't dare say he could wipe out the Hell Pirates... and Magellan actually dared to have such a thought. I really don't know if it's confidence or arrogance.

"He certainly has the confidence to back it up."

With his hands in his pockets, Oboro met Magellan's gaze and spoke softly.

"..."

Dom was stunned by these words.

Even the captain said so...

Boom! Immediately, several Poison Dragon rose from Magellan's body and condensed in mid-air. When the massive amount of venomous liquid crashed to the ground, it formed a tidal wave that swept towards them with terrifying force.

It's worth noting that in the original story, Magellan defeated the Blackbeard Pirates with just this one move.

His Paramecia-type Venom-Venom Fruit ability is too overpowered.

It can be said that, given the unique nature of his Devil Fruit ability, he has already rendered 90% of his enemies' methods ineffective... The inability to attack or touch his body means that physical techniques are useless against him. Ranged attacks are also blocked by the venom he controls... Even Logia-type Devil Fruit users would find it difficult to completely avoid the corrosive effects of the venom, unless they are high-level elemental users like the three admirals of the Navy or Enel and Ace, coupled with their own extraordinary strength; otherwise, they would have no way to fight against Magellan.

As the first person to guard Impel Down, Magellan's Devil Fruit ability must have been awakened long ago, and his own strength is even more formidable... The toxicity of his Devil Fruit ability is extremely domineering.

Emporio Ivankov could only delay Magellan.

Of course, this does not mean that his Devil Fruit ability is invincible.

For example, Mr. 3's Wax-Wax Fruit can effectively counter the Venom-Venom Fruit to a certain extent... but the key point is that, setting aside the Devil Fruit's ability, Magellan's personal combat strength is also top-tier. Later, when the Navy recruited new admirals, if Magellan hadn't chosen to stay in Impel Down, he could have easily become a Navy admiral.

However, just as the surging purple tide was about to engulf Oboro and the others, it was unexpectedly blocked by a barrier formed by the airflow a few meters in front of Oboro.

This caused the venom to split off to both sides of the road, splashing into the sea of fire burning in the low-lying area.

"You all stay away. With his strength, if a fight breaks out later... I might not be able to protect you," Long said.

Upon hearing this, Crocodile and the others retreated one after another.

Upon seeing that his venom had been blocked, Magellan stopped in his tracks.

"No wonder he said he could kill Magellan... It seems it was true."

As Xiliu walked away, he turned back to look at Long's retreating figure and spoke.

The outside world already knew about some of the God Slayer's abilities.

It's no secret.

If, as the World Government has released, the God Slayer can manipulate air currents, then... Oboro's abilities are not simply a matter of countering Magellan, but rather... Magellan's nemesis! "Enjoy the power of our captain."

After confirming that a sufficiently safe distance had been maintained, Dom crossed his arms and gave a reminder.

Long strolled forward, expressionless.

This time, it was his turn to take the initiative to approach Magellan.

Poison Dragon!

Magellan's expression was indifferent.

Several Baron Nashor bodies formed from venom surged and flew over again, but as they were about to crash into Oboro, their heads suddenly changed direction, drawing several arc-shaped trajectories in mid-air with varying directions. Some circled behind Oboro, while others soared into the sky... attempting to evade the invisible wall of air in front of Oboro.

Bang bang bang.

However, to everyone's disappointment, no matter where Magellan chose to launch the Poison Dragon Attack, the Venom always crashed into the 'air shield' and exploded into a shower of liquid.

"All-around defense... His airflow, from 360 degrees, protected a ten-meter space centered on himself, forming a void sphere. Moreover, the solid airflow is so strong that even if I increased the impact of the Poison Dragon, it would be impossible to break through it by force alone."

Magellan suddenly understood.

Poison Cloud.

Then, a thick layer of poisonous gas rose from his body and spread outwards. This poisonous gas was everywhere and could penetrate any part of the body. Anyone who inhaled it would lose their life force.

Magellan's idea was to overcome strength with gentleness.

But...

The poisonous gas that had just spread out contracted uncontrollably, turning into a purple pellet in the blink of an eye, which flew into the palm of the God Slayer and was held between his fingertips.

Guan Long appeared completely unconcerned even after being exposed to poisonous gas.

But in reality, there is a thin layer of gas that envelops the venom, creating a visual illusion.

"Don't you understand?"

Oboro flicked the poison pill with her fingers, looked at Magellan whose expression was somewhat moved, and said calmly, "If... in this world, there is anyone who has a one hundred percent chance of killing you... that person is me."

"Your Devil Fruit ability is ineffective against me."

"So, let's fight hand-to-hand... If you can beat me in hand-to-hand combat, you might have a sliver of a chance to survive..."

As he spoke, Oboro unleashed his Conqueror's Haki.

Black lightning crackled around his body and burst forth.

The terrifying atmosphere caused the flames in the fire pits on both sides of the road to almost go out.

The buttons on Long's suit jacket popped open instantly, and the hem of his jacket fluttered wildly.

He assumed a horse stance, lowered his waist, bent the back of one arm at the elbow, and aimed his fist at Magellan a few meters away. Under the raised brim of his hat, a pair of cold eyes gleamed with murderous intent. "Ready? It's about to begin."

Whoosh! As soon as he finished speaking, Magellan's pupils dilated instantly.

A terrifying burst of black lightning swept across the entire road in an instant.

It swallowed up the tall figure of the Impel Down ...
