Blood sprayed through the air. World stood frozen, seemingly unable to feel the pain. Everything below his waist was gone.
Blood poured toward the sea like water from a fountain. A gash deep enough to expose bone ran across his chest, steadily draining his life.
The vitality that had once surged through him now flickered like a candle in the wind.
"World—!!!"
Binjack had just regained consciousness when he saw World falling. Fighting the choking sensation in his lungs, he screamed with all his might.
"Just enough damage to put him back in Impel Down. No more, no less."
Atlas chuckled, evidently pleased with the sight.
Byrnndi World had seemed to be on the back foot throughout their fight, but that did not mean the More-More Fruit was weak.
Quite the opposite. The More-More Fruit was unquestionably one of the strongest Paramecia Devil Fruit Abilities!!
It could multiply its user's speed and the size of objects outside their body. If a monster with an exceptionally powerful physique got hold of it,
that would spell serious trouble for the Marines.
Fortunately—
Atlas crooked a finger, and an invisible force caught World as he fell toward the sea.
He couldn't let this guy die so easily!!
The same force caught Binjack, who was barely clinging to life.
He would let the brothers catch up in Impel Down. Perhaps they could even clear up a few misunderstandings.
I really am a good person. Even now, I'm looking out for their brotherly bond.
So Atlas thought.
Carrying the two of them, he finally landed on the deck of the White Hou.
"Smoker, get me a thick Seastone chain. Lock this guy up."
Atlas gave Smoker the order.
As for Binjack?
The man looked so sickly that shackling him might kill him on the spot.
