Taste the Power of Lightning Release!

"You wretched Ninja Kid, I'm going to kill you!"

Burgess ran over from a distance, his eyes filled with rage as he looked at Xi Yan.

"Stop, Burgess!" Blackbeard shouted.

"Captain?"

Burgess, who had been stopped, paused for a moment, then looked at Blackbeard with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why are you stopping me?"

"Now is not the time to fight them," Blackbeard explained.

Burgess paused for a moment, then nodded and gave up the attack.

In that case, let's seek revenge on that Ninja Kid next time!

Blackbeard nodded, then looked at Xi Yan and said, "Ninja Kid, if you want to rescue Ace, you'd better hurry, or you'll miss that guy's public execution."

Xi Yan frowned upon hearing this. Was this guy not planning to continue fighting?

"This guy is right," Jinbe said as he approached Xi Yan and Luffy. "Now is not the time to waste time here."

"Our top priority is to rescue Ace!"

If we continue to waste time here, Magellan might catch up with us, which would be very troublesome.

After all... that guy's poison is absolutely disgusting!

Just then, an explosion suddenly came from the area behind, followed by screams.

"Ah!!"

"It's Magellan!"

"Damn Magellan, why won't you let me go?!"

Kill me!

Kill me!

"I don't want to die..."

"Ah!!"

The piercing screams sent chills down everyone's spines.

"It's Magellan!" Jinbe's expression changed. "Quick, we need to get out of here right now!"

"Wasn't this guy on the Second Floor?" Xi Yan frowned and said, "Why did he come down so quickly?"

Suddenly, Xi Yan remembered something special that existed inside this Underwater Great Prison.

Elevator!

"I see, you came down using the elevator."

As he spoke, Xi Yan glanced at the area in the distance, where some purple Poisonous Gas could already be seen.

Clearly, this is Magellan attacking the escaped prisoners.

"Great, it's the warden!"

"The warden is here!"

The jailers lying on the ground immediately showed expressions of surprise and delight.

Our warden is extremely powerful; he can definitely wipe them all out!

Hearing the gasps of alarm, Ivankov glanced at the area in the distance, then turned back to Luffy and said, "Straw Hat Boy, if you get poisoned by Magellan again, you're doomed."

So let's get out of here quickly.

Although the boy's body has developed some antibodies, no one knows whether Magellan will attack the Straw Hat Boy with other deadly toxins!

By then, even if he had Healing Hormone, he wouldn't be able to save this kid!

"You still have time to look at others?!" Sadi-chan lashed out with her whip, saying at the same time, "You'd better stay here obediently!"

"Smack!"

"Boom!!"

The whip, imbued with Armament Haki, lashed out at the ground, creating a large crater!

"Whoosh~"

"Click~"

Ivankov, having dodged the attack, landed steadily on the ground. He then looked at Sadi-chan with some displeasure and said, "What a troublesome fellow."

It seems she has to deal with this guy first before she can leave.

"Ivankov is right, let's leave here first," Jinbe said again.

Luffy didn't speak, but stared at Blackbeard.

"What, Straw Hat, you still want to fight me?" Blackbeard said, looking at Luffy. "If you keep wasting time, your brother will be killed."

"I will definitely rescue Ace!"

After saying that, Luffy ignored Blackbeard and ran towards the Great Gate without saying a word.

"Thief, hahaha!"

"I wouldn't say it was a waste of effort," Blackbeard said with a laugh. "Because nothing in this world is absolutely impossible!"

After laughing, Blackbeard glanced at Luffy, who had walked up to him Luffy, and said, "Skypiea really exists, right, Straw Hat?"

Upon hearing Blackbeard's words, Luffy stopped in his tracks, his mind involuntarily recalling the scene of his first encounter with the guy.

On that occasion, the other party said something.

(People's dreams never end!)

"Straw Hat!" Blackbeard stared into Luffy's eyes and laughed loudly, "One Piece must also exist!"

"Hahaha!"

"Just wait and see! In just a few hours, we will present you with a world-class performance that will blow the world away!"

"Thief, hahaha!"

Luffy frowned as he watched Blackbeard laugh and walk away into the distance.

"Ignore him, Mr. Luffy," Jinbe said. "Let's hurry up and go."

"Um."

Luffy nodded, then looked at Xi Yan standing on the high place and said, "Xi Yan, let's go."

"You guys go first," Xi Yan said, staring at the Long Bridge in the distance. "I'll wait until Emporio Ivankov's battle is over before I leave."

If Magellan had arrived before Ivankov's battle ended, he could have stopped Magellan, thus allowing Ivankov to leave alive.

"Okay, I understand."

Knowing the strength of Xi Yan, Luffy, then turned around without hesitation and left with Jinbe and the others.

Before leaving, Bon Clay touched Hannibal's face with his hand, and then left with the rest of the group.

"What a thoughtful Candy Boy!"

Ivankov glanced at Xi Yan, who was standing on the pile of rocks watching him, and burst into laughter.

Then, he looked at Sadi-chan and said, "Alright, it's time for our fight to end."

"Hmm~"

"Don't underestimate people, you..."

"Transgender Fist Techniques & Romantic Dance Techniques!"

After a loud shout, Ivankov lunged at Sadi-chan.

After glancing at the two locked in fierce combat, Xi Yan withdrew his gaze and then looked at Blackbeard's retreating figure.

'Should we give him a hand?'

If we use Lightning Release on them, we might be able to keep them here temporarily.

Then someone will help them stop Magellan!

With that in mind, Xi Yan launched an attack without hesitation.

"Lightning Release: Earth Flow!!"

"Sizzle sizzle~"

The terrifying lightning moved along the water flow on the ground, rushing rapidly towards Blackbeard's crew in the distance.

' Dark Hole!!'

Blackbeard, who had been eyeing Xi Yan with Observation Haki beforehand, activated his ability without hesitation.

In just a moment, the darkness hidden beneath his feet erupted, instantly drawing the water from the ground into the darkness and diverting the lightning that was rushing towards him.

Sensing the surging Thunder Force in the darkness, a hint of relief appeared in Blackbeard's eyes.

Luckily, he had prepared in advance, otherwise he would have been infected!

'invalid?'

Xi Yan looked at the black smoke billowing from Blackbeard's feet with some surprise, his heart filled with confusion.

He remembered that when Blackbeard activated his ability before, there was no way to block his Ninjutsu.

But this time... has the method of using that ability changed?

'Could it be that this guy used that layer of darkness to block the water flow below?' Xi Yan wondered to himself.

Is it because that layer of darkness is non-conductive that it's ineffective?

It's not impossible.

Just then, a man's scream came from the side, the sound extremely pitiful.

"Ah!!"

"Burgess!"

Blackbeard turned and glanced at Burgess lying in the water, his expression immediately turning grim.

Then, Blackbeard glared fiercely at Xi Yan and said, "You wretched Ninja Kid, are you really planning to start a war with us?!"

He had already given up on fighting this guy, but the kid was still relentless. Did he really think he was a pushover?

At this moment, the other members of Blackbeard's crew also picked up their weapons and stared intently at Xi Yan.

As long as their captain gives the order, they will not hesitate to take down this kid on the other side.

"It's not impossible," Xi Yan grinned. "Anyway, I'm not afraid of Magellan."

After staring at Xi Yan's face for a while, Blackbeard sneered and said, "What a madman."

He could tell that the other person was serious.

If he really wanted to make a move, the other party would actually fight him right here.

But that's not what he wanted.

Fighting a Ninja to the death in this place would do him no good.

After all... Magellan is almost here!

Just then, Ivankov walked over from the side, looked at Xi Yan, and said, "Ninja Boy, let's go."

He's already taken care of that guy Sadi-chan, so there's no need for him to stay here any longer.

After all... Magellan is almost here!

Xi Yan didn't speak, but stared at Blackbeard for a while, then sneered, turned around and left with Ivankov.

"Phew~"

Blackbeard breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; he really didn't want to fight a Ninja to the death here.

"Captain, how about I..."

"Don't do anything unnecessary, Van Augur," Blackbeard said. "The priority is to do what we need to do."

Van Augur paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded and put his weapon away.

Laffitte walked silently to Burgess and pulled him out of the water.

"How are you?" Blackbeard asked.

"My body... is... paralyzed..." Burgess said with difficulty.

Upon hearing Burgess's words, a look of seriousness appeared in Blackbeard's eyes.

Then, looking at Xi Yan's retreating figure, he said, "What a terrifying Lightning Release Technique."

Despite his strong physique, Burgess was still taken down in a single move.

As expected of a legendary Ninja!

"Captain, what should we do?" Laffitte asked.

If their own brother has been taken down, should they continue?

"Is that even a question? Of course, we'll continue with our plan," Blackbeard said. "Laffitte, you carry Burgess on your back."

These were his subordinates who had been willing to follow him from the very beginning, so... even if they were now incapacitated, he would not abandon them.

"No need... I feel... almost... better."

Hearing Burgess's words, Laffitte stopped what she was doing and silently stared at the other's face.

As time went by, Burgess gradually regained his mobility.

Then, with a furious look on his face, he said, "That damned Ninja Kid, I'm going to kill him!"

He actually used the power of lightning to launch a sneak attack; what a despicable Ninja!

'If they had taken the opportunity to attack me, I'd probably be dead by now.'

Thinking about this made Burgess even angrier.

"There will be other opportunities," Blackbeard said. "Let's go, we might have to face Magellan next."

"I wonder how strong this guy is."

If the other party is also Devil Fruit User, then he can easily kill them!

Thinking of this, Blackbeard grinned.

"Yes, Captain," Burgess nodded.

Since his own captain had said so, he couldn't say anything more and could only think of a way to get revenge later.

"What a bunch of fools!" Magellan said, staring at the prisoners he had just killed. "They actually dared to escape?!"

"That damned Magellan!"

"It hurts so much..."

"Kill me! Kill me!!"

"Ah!!"

"Snort."

Hearing the screams of the group, Magellan snorted and said, "You can just stay here and suffer your deaths."

Give them a quick death?

Ha, he wouldn't be that kind!

If you've chosen to break out of prison, you must be prepared to be punished!

"Warden, we've found Sadi-chan," a guard ran over and said.

Where?

"There."

Following the direction the jailer was pointing, Magellan's face immediately darkened.

From his perspective, Sadi-chan was half-buried in the rubble, appearing to have lost consciousness.

After walking over, Magellan asked, "How is she?"

"He's still breathing, but he's lost consciousness."

"That's good."

Magellan breathed a sigh of relief, then his eyes turned cold as he said, "Take her away for treatment. I'm going to catch up with those guys."

"Yes!"

Just then, Sadi-chan's weak voice came from the ruins.

"Warden... Sir..."

"Are you awake?"

"Don't worry, I won't let them escape," Magellan said.

After saying that, the man ran away into the distance without looking back.

"Um?"

Magellan glanced at Blackbeard's crew appearing ahead and said with a grim expression, "Blackbeard's crew, huh...?"

"Hahaha, you must be Magellan!" Blackbeard laughed loudly.

"Ah."

"I don't know why you're here, but... I'm not in the mood to waste time with you right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gigantic venomous Poison Dragon appeared on Magellan's body, and then the Poison Dragon roared and charged towards Blackbeard.

Blackbeard:!!!

"Varied...?!"

Blackbeard was dumbfounded when Magellan launched his attack without saying a word.

Without hesitation, he raised his arm and activated his Devil Fruit ability.

"Dark Water!"

"Buzz~"

The powerful Devil Fruit ability activated, immediately neutralizing the venom that had reached his hand.

However, Magellan's attack this time was simply too wide, covering almost the entire Long Bridge area, so Blackbeard's crew ultimately fell victim to it.

"Damn it, it hurts so much!" Burgess cried out in pain.

Is it poisonous?

Seeing the purple liquid in his hand, Blackbeard's expression immediately turned ugly.

He hadn't expected his opponent's Devil Fruit ability to be poison; what a miscalculation.

Magellan glanced at Blackbeard's crew, who lay on the ground poisoned, and said coldly, "You can all just wail and wait to die here!"

Then, the man ignored the men and walked step by step toward the Great Gate.

Upon reaching the Great Gate, Magellan noticed the unconscious man lying on the ground.

"Hannibal ..." Magellan crouched down and said, "You've done a great job to hold on this far. Now leave the rest to me!"

Then, Magellan looked at the several prison guards who had run over and said, "You guys, take Hannibal to get treatment. You absolutely cannot let him die, understand?"

"Yes, Warden!"

"Vice Warden, you need to pull yourself together!"

"Quickly, carry the Vice Warden to the medical room on a stretcher!"

"Profound!"

After watching his men leave, Magellan muttered, "You're the guy I've got my eye on as the next warden. I hope you don't die!"

Then, he fixed his gaze on the Great Gate to the side and said in a murderous tone, "As for you lot... I will execute you!"
