Byrnndi World! Let's Break Out of Prison
Still, there was no shortage of reckless fools. This world produced plenty of madmen.
"You bastard!"
A prisoner launched himself straight at Naito. "What the hell did you do to me-"
He fell flat on the ground.
Naito couldn't even be bothered to give him another glance. He stepped into the cell before him.
The cell was specially made, and the temperature inside was extremely low. It was one big freezer.
In the middle of that freezer stood a massive block of ice, with a man frozen inside it.
Outside the cell, the prisoner who had fallen to the ground opened his eyes again.
Tears and snot streaming down his face, he trembled violently and prostrated himself before Naito. "Please, spare me! I won't ever do it again!"
The other prisoners' faces were grim.
They all realized what that ball of light had meant. They could no longer resist.
"Oh, that sounds like quite an ability."
Redfield spoke with interest. "Even without us, is the sea still this exciting?"
Naito paid him no heed and simply pressed his hand against the massive block of ice before him.
You've been asleep for over twenty years. Let me see what kind of dream you've been having.
Chapter 8: Byrnndi World! Let's Break Out of Prison (Please keep reading!)
Boom.
It was the sound of a cannonball exploding.
Whoosh.
It was the sound of flames spreading.
"World! Run!"
It was his older brother's scream.
"Hahahaha! World, I'll be taking your head!"
Who was that?
Right, a traitor!
Those damned traitors!
Who... who was he?
Before he could figure it out, flames swallowed him, a blade stabbed into his body from behind, and bullets pierced his chest.
Kill them. Kill those traitors...
"How pitiful. Have you been trapped in a nightmare all these years?"
He suddenly saw someone.
A person whose entire body was shrouded in light, with only a vaguely human shape discernible.
"It's time to wake up, Byrnndi World."
Byrnndi World...
He suddenly realized that he had been invited.
Some incomprehensible force seemed to be trying to take him somewhere else.
Wake up...
He accepted.
Then, in the next instant.
He appeared on a vast, empty plain.
His muddled consciousness gradually cleared, and his blurred memories began to sharpen.
I am Byrnndi World, the World Destroyer!
"Aaaaah!!"
The tall, powerfully built man in a horned helmet roared at the top of his lungs.
He had wandered through nightmares for over twenty years, and only now had he finally regained everything that was his.
He remembered it all: the traitors, the CP Agents, the Marines, everything.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
He bellowed like a madman, "I'll kill every last one of you!!"
Naito watched the crazed man in silence.
"Do you want revenge?"
he asked.
Byrnndi World finally noticed Naito.
The man, having completely lost his mind, lunged straight at Naito like a rabid dog.
Then, in the next instant, he was slammed flat against the ground by invisible gravity.
World struggled with all his might, but it was no use.
"Take revenge, or remain trapped in your nightmare."
Naito raised a hand, and a ball of light gathered in front of World. "You decide."
The frenzied World gradually calmed down. He looked at Naito, though he couldn't see him clearly.
Then he grabbed the ball of light.
"Good."
Naito nodded in satisfaction.
The most crucial step of the plan had gone smoothly, and he had secured the most useful man.
With that, he wasn't entirely without a chance against Magellan.
He thought for a moment and waved his hand. In the next instant, a bewildered Buckingham and Weevil appeared before him.
"Mom!"
Weevil excitedly threw his arms around his old mother.
"That guy is... Byrnndi World?"
Buckingham immediately noticed Byrnndi World, who had just climbed to his feet.
He had been quite famous in her day.
Then.
She saw Naito.
Could it be-
"Get ready to break out."
Naito said, "Buckingham Stussy, make your son obey."
"Buckingham Stussy?"
World looked at Stussy as well.
This woman was more famous than he was.
Is she this old already?
How many years have passed?
"Yes!"
Buckingham answered loudly without a moment's hesitation. "Did you hear that, Weevil? Cooperate with this lord with everything you've got! Then come rescue me!"
Is this the mysterious ability user?
"Got it, Mom!"
Weevil nodded vigorously.
Naito chuckled and lightly snapped his fingers. The three figures vanished at once.
"Huh?"
Byrnndi World stood there, bewildered.
What does this mean?
What about me?
Infinite Hell.
"Huh? I'm out of my cell!"
Back in his own body, Weevil cried out in delight.
The prisoners looked bewildered. Had things gone back to how they were at the start?
Redfield smiled with interest, while even Bullet glanced over, looking slightly surprised.
Meanwhile, Naito got a feel for his new body.
It was completely encased in ice, and its brain could barely think.
Fortunately, he had no need to use its brain.
Then, let's break the ice.
Haki began to surge within the body.
Haki was also a product of mental and physical power intertwined. Although he had kicked World's consciousness out, he could still draw on a portion of his Haki. When it mixed with Naito's own consciousness, it produced new Haki.
Wherever the Haki passed, the frozen body gradually began to recover.
Then a transparent substance seeped out from the surface of the body and took shape.
In the next instant, with a series of cracks, the solid ice encasing the body shattered.
Amid a spray of white mist, Naito staggered out of the cell.
This body was far weaker than Weevil's.
