Dongye Huanglong ignored the pleas of the pirate prisoners; these scumbags didn't even have a single so-called Devil Fruit user among them!
He walked directly to the back of the prison and saw the brutally tortured Dissolving Man, Buck.
This savage had once shouted at Trafalgar Law, "My freedom is to kill whoever I want, to live solely by my desires!"
On Svalbard Island's Joy Town, he had massacred civilians and destroyed the town.
Now, he was beaten like a dog, becoming a 'model' in the North Blue prison for killing a chicken to scare the monkeys!
"Are you here to recruit me?"
A flicker of desire flashed in Buck's swollen, red eyes. Imprisoned for years, he finally had a chance to escape this terrifying North Blue prison.
"Stop! Dongye Huanglong, I won't let you release a single pirate!"
Commodore Ginn burst into the North Blue prison, radiating killing intent, and saw the terrifying Half-Dragon Man figure.
"Open fire, all of you! No mercy! Even if we have to kill all these pirates, we can't let them escape!"
Commodore Ginn suddenly ordered the armed Marines behind him. This command sent all the pirates into a panic, and even Dongye Huanglong was a little surprised.
He hadn't expected to see a ruthless, iron-blooded soldier like Sakazuki here, someone who would rather kill the wrong person than let the right one go!
"What are you waiting for! I'll take responsibility for anything!"
Commodore Ginn roared and charged at Dongye Huanglong with his saber, buying time for his subordinates to open fire.
Upon hearing Commodore Ginn's order, the North Blue Marines hesitated for only half a second before viciously opening fire.
Suddenly, the North Blue prison erupted in gunfire, accompanied by continuous screams.
"Clang!"
The long saber Commodore Ginn swung at Dongye Huanglong's arm snapped on impact, making his scalp tingle.
This was his full-power strike, infused with a trace of Armament Haki.
And it couldn't even break Dongye Huanglong's defense!
"Courageous! But insufficient strength!"
Dongye Huanglong kicked the Marine Commodore into the wall, smashing through the prison's sturdy structure. The Commodore lay buried in the rubble, unable to get up for a long time.
"Buzz!"
A terrifying aura surged out, stunning the Marines who were firing wildly.
With a swift charge from Dongye Huanglong, several branch Captains and Vice Captains who hadn't been stunned by Conqueror's Haki also collapsed.
"Are there any guys left who can still speak?"
Dongye Huanglong called out indifferently. Anyone who survived the Marines' gunfire and his Conqueror's Haki was lucky and skilled enough to join his Desolate Dragon Group.
"What a shame, there aren't any!"
Dongye Huanglong said with some disappointment. Then, he kicked open the cell holding Buck and lifted the Dissolving Man, who was wearing Seastone handcuffs.
"Thank you for saving my life, sir. I will definitely follow you!"
Buck said emotionally to Dongye Huanglong, trembling with excitement.
"Who said I was taking you?"
Dongye Huanglong punched the self-important scumbag pirate unconscious. He was just an Experiment Subject that Huanglong had prepared for Vegapunk.
This Paramecia-type dissolving ability was quite good and qualified as one of the potential candidates for the Seraphim.
Carrying Buck, Dongye Huanglong transformed into a Divine Dragon and left the North Blue prison, leaving behind ruins and corpses.
A long time later, Commodore Ginn crawled out of the wall's rubble, covered in blood, his eyes filled with fear of Dongye Huanglong.
This was a true monster, far stronger than the Vinsmoke siblings.
His 500 million Bounty was absolutely deserved!
He struggled to his feet, realizing that the devil seemed to have held back.
He rushed to his subordinates and was relieved to find that not many Marines had died; even the Captains and Vice Captains only suffered severe injuries.
He then looked at the chaotic pirate prisoners.
For a moment, he didn't know whether Dongye Huanglong, the criminal, had a shred of conscience, or if he, the Marine Commodore, was more ruthless.
He quickly reported the attack on the North Blue N-11 Marine Branch and the North Blue prison.
Ginn did not conceal anything, directly reporting that he had ordered the shooting of the pirate prisoners and was willing to accept punishment from Marine Headquarters.
However, Marine Headquarters not only did not punish him but also conveniently shifted all the blame onto Dongye Huanglong.
They even planned to spread the infamy of Dongye Huanglong slaughtering pirate prisoners, making other pirates also resent this villain.
Meanwhile, Dongye Huanglong returned to Svalbard Island's Joy Town and handed over the Dissolving Man, Buck, to Vegapunk for research.
Wolf had no feelings left for his son. Perhaps living as an experimental subject for the world's greatest scientist was a cheaper fate than living in prison.
"Captain, you didn't even take me along to attack a Marine branch. This is truly disappointing."
Lafitte said regretfully to Dongye Huanglong. He enjoyed slaughtering both Marines and pirates.
"Has Trafalgar Law called back yet?"
Dongye Huanglong ignored Lafitte's words and changed the subject, not wanting to mobilize the entire force for such a minor matter.
This raid on the North Blue branch took Dongye Huanglong a day or two, and Law should be about to return to Svalbard Island as well.
"He said he'd arrive this afternoon, but I think he'll come back early to rescue old man Wolf," Lafitte said with a smile, his eyes narrowed. He kept glancing at the underground port of this underground research facility, as if waiting for Trafalgar Law's submarine to return ahead of schedule, preventing Wolf from being suddenly rescued.
After all, Dongye Huanglong had warned that Trafalgar Law could use spatial abilities to take people away suddenly.
Even Kuma had entered a state of alert, in case Law attacked them. Furthermore, Kuma had finished reading the Devil Fruit encyclopedia that Huanglong had entrusted him with, and he was now very interested in this Op-Op Fruit User.
He wondered if the legendary "immortality surgery" was real.
Moreover, with this Op-Op Fruit User, combined with Mansheli's Heal-Heal Fruit ability, Bonney's stem cell transplantation surgery would recover faster, and Bonney would be able to live in the sunlight sooner.
"Given his dark and meticulous personality, he might indeed do something like that," Dongye Huanglong agreed with Lafitte's idea. Having a subordinate like Lafitte who could think things through and cover any gaps made Huanglong very satisfied.
Perhaps to verify Lafitte's guess, less than an hour later, a transparent light circle expanded into the underground research facility from an unknown location.
A young man wearing a spotted wool hat and a yellow long-sleeved shirt, carrying a katana, suddenly appeared next to Wolf, intending to teleport him away directly.
But Kuma's speed was also very fast. The moment Law appeared, he had already teleported to Law and Wolf's side.
With a small Ursus Shock, Law, who hadn't even left the North Blue yet, was blasted against the research facility wall.
"Ugh~"
Law spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to even maintain his Devil Fruit's ROOM space.
This was the power gap between a Shichibukai-level powerhouse like Tyrant Kuma and Law, a future Supernova.
Without learning both forms of Haki, Law, even with the Op-Op Fruit's teleportation ability, was completely crushed by Kuma.
There was no surprise whatsoever!
