Coach, I Want to Learn

In the oppressive darkness, shadows writhed like living creatures as an eerie figure silently approached the sleeping "Fang Yu"!

The creature was nearly the size of an octopus and glided at astonishing speed!

Its target was clear: Fang Yu's completely defenseless body!

"Fang Yu" lay there, breathing steadily, utterly unaware of the danger approaching him.

His eyes were shut tight, immersed in a dream and unresponsive to the threats outside.

The creature suddenly pounced, covering "Fang Yu's" face. Its icy touch and crushing weight sent ripples through his dream.

It opened its mouth, revealing sharp teeth and a long tongue covered in barbs that gleamed coldly in the darkness!

The barbs scraped across "Fang Yu's" cheek. The cold, sharp sensation finally pierced the barrier of his dream and woke him from his slumber.

Uchiha Yu abruptly opened his eyes. His heart pounded and adrenaline surged through him. In an instant, his hand shot out on instinct and shoved the creature off his chest.

Once he saw what was on his chest, his heartbeat gradually calmed.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath, his voice trembling slightly. "Thank goodness it's you, Little Flower. If it had been a Facehugger... that would've been terrifying."

The Calico Cat sat innocently to one side, staring curiously at the human who often fed it with its bright green eyes, as though it could not understand why its affection had been rejected.

Since his sleep had been ruined, Uchiha Yu stretched. Seeing that it was still dark outside, he called out to the brothers in his mind.

"Are you all awake?"

Main God Fang Yu still did not respond.

Stephen Fang was also fast asleep in the attic.

After a while, Pirate World Fang Yu's voice came through.

"Not asleep."

The scene synchronized.

The stairway landing was dark and damp, and the few weak rays of light could not penetrate the heavy shadows here.

Several people in ragged Prison Uniforms huddled on the moss-covered floor. Their bodies trembled from the cold and fear as they sought one another's body heat for the slightest warmth.

Their faces were haggard, their eyes full of despair. Exhausted and starving, they barely managed to sleep, while the occasional groans and coughs sounded especially clear in the silence.

Not far away, a massive beast occupied the space beneath the stairs. Its enormous body heaved with heavy breaths, and its snoring was deafening.

The giant beast's hulking form appeared even more horrifying in the darkness. Every breath it took made the surrounding air tremble.

Its skin reflected a metallic sheen under the dim light, and whenever it occasionally rolled over, the clatter of chains and shackles echoed through the stairwell, sending chills down everyone's spine.

Pirate World Fang Yu looked around at the prisoners trying to find peace amid despair, then at the sleeping beast. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "If you could sleep in an environment like mine, I'd say you're impressive."

Just as Uchiha Yu was about to answer, the prisoner beside Pirate World Fang Yu turned his head.

"Hey, kid. What are you thinking about instead of sleeping?"

The prisoner had a long, narrow face and a sturdy-looking build. Even while leaning against the wall, he sat perfectly upright, standing out sharply from the other prisoners beside him.

Pirate World Fang Yu had noticed this unusual prisoner long ago.

It could not be helped. Compared to the standard Prison Uniforms worn by the other inmates, that Marine shirt was simply too conspicuous.

Pirate World Fang Yu shrugged and joked, "Escaping prison, of course. What else, figuring out how to settle down here?"

"Escaping prison? You've got some nerve saying that in front of me, an 'undercover Marine.'"

"Haha, what kind of undercover agent still wears a Marine uniform?" Pirate World Fang Yu forced a smile. "I really want to offer you a cigarette right now, but forget cigarettes—my last Hiramishi was four days ago."

"You've got a good heart, kid."

"I am Multiple Birth Yu. May I ask, Big Brother Marine—"

"Multiple Birth? What a strange name. Listen up, I'm Torin Fuller! Everyone likes calling me Iron Head. As you can see, I'm a Marine."

"How did a Marine get captured and thrown into Impel Down?"

"What's so strange about that?" Iron Head Torin Fuller wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth. "The charge doesn't matter. What matters is who wanted to screw me over."

"Then who screwed you over?" Pirate World Fang Yu asked curiously.

"Oh, my superior, Commodore Ryan Forbes."

"I caught his friend with my wife in the bedroom, so I beat up his friend."

Pirate World Fang Yu tilted his head. "Huh? You caught them cheating, and you got sent to Impel Down instead? Is there any justice in that?"

"No, no. More precisely, after my pay was suspended, I went to argue with the higher-ups and them. I made the whole thing bigger."

"Then I found out that the guy I beat up was a steward for a local Celestial Dragon family."

Pirate World Fang Yu sighed. "Then I get it."

Iron Head Torin Fuller asked curiously, "You don't look very old, but you seem like you've seen a lot. How long have you been locked up?"

"I came in seven years ago."

"Seven years ago? They locked up such a young child? Why?"

"I don't know either." Pirate World Fang Yu answered with a hint of bitterness.

They sighed at the same time, finding a sliver of resonance in this oppressive environment.

However, just as they were about to end their conversation and seek a little rest in this miserable place, something unexpected happened!

A patrolling poisonous snake suddenly changed course and silently slithered into a prisoner's pant leg.

Then, with a crunch, the snake's poison fangs pierced through the fabric and sank deeply into the prisoner's flesh!

"AAAAAH!"

The prisoner jolted awake from his dream. His scream echoed through the stairwell, shattering the original silence.

That scream was like a match, igniting the tension in this relatively safe spot.

The problem was not the scream.

It was where they were!

Beast Hell!

This was the territory of beasts!

The prisoner's scream was like a needle, puncturing this fragile balance!

The massive beast was awakened by the scream and let out a deafening roar. It was like thunder, leaving every prisoner with a violent ringing in their ears!

They had to escape this place immediately!

"Run! Run far away!" someone shouted in panic.

The prisoners scattered like a startled flock of sheep, but in the beasts' territory, their escape was utterly powerless.

A giant lion wielding a Baseball Bat chased the prisoners with all its might. It seemed to have a terrible case of waking up on the wrong side of the bed, and every swing carried deadly force.

One swing sent one prisoner flying!

Pirate World Fang Yu was running desperately as well.

He could feel the lion behind him drawing closer and closer.

"Tiger."

Just as he was about to form a Hand Seal and strike back, a figure suddenly appeared behind him!

"Kid! Run!"

Before Pirate World Fang Yu could react, a loud metallic clang rang out beside his ear!

He turned around in shock!

Iron Head Torin Fuller had used his head to take the giant lion's attack head-on!

The metal Baseball Bat collided with his head, producing a crisp ring!

Yet Iron Head Torin Fuller seemed to feel nothing at all, a smile still on his lips!

"Fellow prisoners, run! The farther, the better!"

Torin Fuller thought he had become a hero, but an ill-timed voice suddenly sounded from his side.

"Coach, I want to learn Iron Body."
