Chapter 77: Navy Monster! Gap!
Chapter 77: Navy Monster! Gap!
"Charge forward! Kill anyone who dares to stop us!"
"I'm going to kill all those damn jailers!"
"Navy bastards! I never thought I could get out of this hell alive!"
……
The prisoners, who could no longer wait, didn't know who took the lead, and the rest all rushed forward and ran into the passage leading to the fifth underground floor.
If they hadn't retained the last bit of rationality and were not afraid of the other prisoners' strength, they would probably have started fighting each other by now.
"We don't have any other choice, right? Now we can only hope that guy can consume a little more of the monster's energy, and it would be best if we could leave him some small gift!"
Xilu gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, took a step forward and followed behind into the passage.
The first group of prisoners quickly poured into the fifth underground floor, and what came into view was an iceberg made up of countless ice cubes and a large hole above the iceberg through which sunlight directly shone.
The prisoners, who had not seen the sun for who knows how long, suddenly went crazy. They ignored the fact that Borsalino was guarding in front of the iceberg and rushed directly towards the sunlit area.
"Wow, you are really enthusiastic. Let me entertain you all... Yasakani no Magatama!"
Borsalino stretched out his hand very decisively. In the eyes of ordinary people, those who were imprisoned in the infinite hell were all monsters, but in front of Borsalino, only Barrett could barely be considered a monster, and the rest were not even qualified to be considered as rotten fish and shrimps!
"Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish..."
Countless light bullets instantly penetrated the prisoners' bodies. Even if Borsalino was not too serious, his casual attack was not something these bastards could resist.
But in the blink of an eye, the dozen or so prisoners who ran to the front were knocked down!
The prisoners behind them either had the warning of their observation Haki and made evasive moves in advance, or had excellent attainments in armament Haki and managed to withstand a small amount of attacks from Yasakani no Magatama, which is why they managed to survive.
There was also one who seemed to be an animal-type devil fruit user, who transformed into a giant violent bear in an attempt to fight back.
However, his defense was not enough to withstand it, and his own Animal-type Devil Fruit had not been developed to the level of awakening. He did not have the recovery ability to survive as long as his head was not chopped off, and he was beaten into a hornet's nest.
"Oh, what a pity! Such good leather, if we take it off and take it to the auction house in the Sabaody Archipelago, it will be sold for tens of millions of berries, right?"
Borsalino looked at the violent bear that had been beaten into a hornet's nest with regret. It was too late for him to stop when the thing transformed.
Of course, he could still be saved by using his stand's super speed, but a mere better skin was not worth using his stand's ability.
"This guy……"
"As expected of a Navy monster!"
"Damn it! This monster seems to have become even stronger..."
……
The prisoners subconsciously stopped. To ordinary prison guards, they were escaped prisoners from infinite hell, murderous monsters.
But to Borsalino, the so-called monsters were just like that. Ignoring the small fry that were not even cannon fodder, there were still a few guys who could give him a little fun. The rest of the rotten fish and shrimps were not enough for him to beat with one hand even if they were rolled into a ball.
"As expected... Barrett is no match for you... Damn it! If that idiot would listen to me..."
Xiliu took a look at the extremely cold hell that had already changed beyond all recognition, and had to admit that Barrett's strength was stronger than he had imagined.
If that guy hadn't insisted on having his own way and had honestly joined forces with them, there might still be a chance to defeat Borsalino!
"What is that...um, that big chin over there, what's your name?"
Borsalino's eyes fell on Shilu. Among a group of escaped prisoners dressed in strange clothes, Shilu, the only one dressed decently, still looked very conspicuous.
To be honest, Borsalino still had some impression of Shiryu, but this impression had accompanied him through decades in the pirate world, and it was not easy for him to still remember that there was such a person in Impel Down.
"Shiryu, Shiryu of the Rain!"
Xilu was not angry because Borsalino could not remember his name. On the contrary, he was secretly relieved. Not being able to remember his name meant that the other party did not take him seriously. Maybe he could escape when this navy monster was not paying attention.
"It doesn't matter what you keep. You should just go back to jail with these scumbags. It's troublesome to kill too many scumbags at once."
Borsalino said with disdain that the existence of the Deep Sea Prison is not only to imprison those evil pirates, but more importantly to limit the number of Devil Fruit users.
Among the prisoners who have escaped from the Infinite Hell, nearly two-thirds are Devil Fruit users.
After the ability user dies, the corresponding devil fruit will randomly reappear on the sea.
If Borsalino kills them all in one go, it won't take long before hundreds of Devil Fruits appear in the sea.
It would be fine if it was an ordinary animal-type devil fruit, but things like the Float-Float Fruit, the Momo Fruit, and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit will cause huge trouble to the navy as long as the user is not too weak.
Not to mention the natural and even rarer animal-type mythical beasts. Rather than saying that the Deep Sea Prison is imprisoning pirates, it would be more accurate to say that it is imprisoning devil fruits.
"Asshole! How dare you look down on us like this!"
"Show him some power!"
"There's no way he can stop so many of us by himself!"
……
Most of the prisoners imprisoned in the Infinite Hell were not good-tempered guys. Seeing Borsalino's almost contemptuous attitude, one or two of them exploded on the spot like powder kegs.
But despite the scolding, no one was willing to stand up for a long time, and the situation suddenly became very awkward.
No one is a fool. First, the devil's descendant Barrett died silently, and then more than a dozen prisoners were killed in the blink of an eye. No matter how arrogant they are, they have some self-awareness.
What's more, among the prisoners present, many had been sent to the Deep Sea Prison by Borsalino. These guys who had suffered had long been hiding at the back of the crowd and didn't even have the courage to look Borsalino in the eye.
‘Clang! ’
Seeing that the situation was becoming a little wrong, Xilu suddenly drew his sword and split an iceberg beside him.
"Do you still want to be sent to the infinite hell and continue to live as a prisoner in the dark? Look at the sunshine over there! Think about the sea outside the city of Impel Down! As long as you defeat this monster, there will be no obstacles to your freedom..."
Xiliu shouted loudly and sternly that he had to find a way to boost the morale of these prisoners. Otherwise, if they were blocked at the last moment before escaping from Pushu City, he would not be willing to die!
"Hmmmm, I don't want to go back to that damn place full of rats!"
"Hey, hey, I want to go out and drink more wine..."
"Humph, it would be such a pity if a man like me died here, meow!"
……
Crescent Hunter Catherine Diemey, Barrel Basque Jot, and King of Evil Government Avalo Pizarro stepped forward one after another. With this group of people stabilizing the "morale", the remaining prisoners gradually calmed down.
"Borsalino, if you are willing to let me go, I can help you capture them all and send them back."
But just when the prisoners were preparing to fight Borsalino to the death, Red Earl Redfield, whom they regarded as their backbone, suddenly spoke.
While everyone else was immersed in the warmth and desire brought to them by the sun, only Redfield felt the horror that made him tremble from the huge hole that almost penetrated the city of Impel Down.
That was a force that was enough to completely wipe him out from the sea... With his innate super-strong observation Haki, Redfield could even vaguely simulate the consequences if he faced that attack head-on.
"…Are you getting old and confused?! There's no way that guy would let you go!"
Xiliu was completely confused. At this moment, he didn't even know how to express his feelings.
This is the consequence of being ill-educated and only thinking about fighting and killing. If it were Borsalino, he would probably say, "We are ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?"
Regardless of strength or qualifications, Redfield is the undisputed leader among the prisoners of Infinite Hell, and only "World Destroyer" Bondi Waldo can compete with him.
Unfortunately, Waldo's brain was a little dull, maybe because he was frozen for too long, but his mind was full of thoughts of blowing up Marinford. He didn't even react much when Borsalino, a navy man, appeared in front of him.
Redfield, the leader-like boss, knelt down as soon as he came up, and he couldn't do anything to the prisoners.
"idiot!"
Redfield snorted coldly and ignored Xiluo. He stared at Borsalino, waiting for his answer.
The lonely Red, who is used to being alone, never needs companions. It would be fine if he could rely on the power of others to regain his freedom, but now the enemy is so powerful that it makes him despair. What reason is there for him to hang out with this group of weaklings?
"You're the arrogant Reid, right? I remember you were the last pirate captured by Marshal Kong before he retired. Well, at least I worked under Marshal Kong before. Otherwise, you should be smart and go back by yourself. At worst, I can help you apply for improved living conditions."
Borsalino was also shocked by the other party's shamelessness. For a moment, he really wanted to agree and let Redfield help him.
At worst, I can catch this guy when Redfield leaves Impel Down.
Fortunately, the last bit of Borsalino's moral integrity stopped him from nodding and agreeing.
"You will regret this!"
A faint layer of blood rushed to Redfield's pale face, and he clenched the umbrella sword and shouted in a low voice.
"Let's go together! Kill that guy!"
Xiliu cursed inwardly, then shouted loudly.
If he didn't need to rely on Redfield's strength now, and he probably couldn't defeat this monster, according to Rain Shiryu's character, he would have to kill Redfield first.
A red shadow pierced towards Borsalino's throat at an astonishing speed. Redfield was neither a devil fruit user nor did he have an inhuman physique like Garp and Barrett.
All he had was incredibly fast speed, swordsmanship that could cut through anything, and extraordinary observation Haki. With these, he was able to keep pace with Roger and Whitebeard for many years.
"Tian Cong Yun Sword!"
Borsalino pulled out a lightsaber from the void and slashed it straight towards the position in front of the red shadow.
‘Clang! ’
The red shadow suddenly stopped in mid-air. Redfield clenched the umbrella sword in his hand and exerted force to try to suppress Borsalino.
The umbrella sword itself is not suitable for slashing. Even if it is wrapped in armed color domineering, stabbing is still the main means of attack.
But Redfield was too proud and didn't think he would lose to Borsalino in wrestling.
"What an arrogant fellow! No wonder Vice Admiral Garp looks down on you and says you are not worthy of being remembered in history..."
The moment the swords crossed, Borsalino understood Redfield's thoughts and couldn't help laughing.
Not to mention whether Redfield is qualified to wrestle with him, the fact that this guy has been locked up in Infinite Hell for more than 20 years and still wants to compete with his opponent using abilities he is not good at is, in Borsalino's words, was completely clueless.
Not everyone is like Barrett, who has the courage and perseverance to keep exercising even when he was imprisoned for more than 20 years.
Perhaps Redfield had persisted when he was first imprisoned in Impel Down, but judging from the sharpness and power felt on the blade, this guy probably didn't hold on for long before choosing to give up.
Otherwise, no matter how strong Borsalino was, it wouldn't be so easy.
"That Garp guy was just lucky! I will never fall into his hands again!"
Redfield growled, because he was defeated due to exhaustion and was captured and taken to Impel Down, which was a reality that he could not get over until now.
Because of that failure, he was imprisoned in the Deep Sea Prison, where he was locked up in the infinite hell on the sixth level underground for decades!
The pain of defeat, the pain of losing freedom, the pain of feeling oneself getting older day by day but being powerless to do anything...
He has had enough of everything in the Infinite Hell. This time, even if it means death, he will rush out of Impel Down!
"It's a pity that Marshal Kong has been promoted to the commander-in-chief of the three armies, otherwise he wouldn't mind fighting you again. But you are definitely no match for Marshal Kong this time!"
Borsalino began to exert his strength, without even taking it seriously, and easily overwhelmed Redfield, watching as the lightsaber blade was about to fall on his neck.
"Momo·One Hundred Times·Flying Knife!"
At this moment, a flying knife flew towards Borsalino. An ordinary flying knife would naturally pose no threat to the admiral of the navy, but if it was a flying knife wrapped in Armament Haki, its speed, power and even size would be magnified a hundred times...
‘Clang! ’
Borsalino knocked Redfield flying and swung his lightsaber to chop at the flying knife that was as big as a giant battering ram.
Although Waldo had wrapped the knife with Armament Haki, he was not even a swordsman in terms of swordsmanship, and he was even inferior to Barrett in terms of Armament Haki. The flying knife was chopped into pieces by Borsalino on the spot.
"Hey hey hey, wine and fire storm!"
The big barrel Basque Chote took a big sip of wine and sprayed it towards Borsalino. The wine mist was quickly ignited in the air and turned into an extremely hot flame that rushed towards him.
A wave of flames swept over, and at the same time, a seemingly inconspicuous prisoner slapped his hands on the ground.
"Spider web binding!"
There are no weak prisoners who can be imprisoned in the Infinite Hell. The one in front of him is clearly a user of the superhuman Net-Net Fruit, and he has already developed the Net-Net Fruit to the level of awakening the Devil Fruit ability.
Whether it was mud or stone, under the effect of his ability, they all turned into large nets, covering Borsalino's head like an overwhelming force.
"Poison scale powder!"
There was also a user who had eaten the Animal-Type Moth Fruit and turned into an oversized fluttering moth, flying into the air and scattering a large amount of brightly colored scale powder.
The floating scale powder instantly exploded when it encountered the flames, further increasing the temperature of the flames and completely covering the area where Borsalino was. "He should be dead, right?"
Looking at Borsalino being completely engulfed by the poisonous fire, many prisoners showed hopeful expressions.
If they were covered by the net and then devoured by the poisonous scale powder and ultra-high temperature flames, no matter how tenacious their vitality was, they would die.
"idiot!"
Xiliu couldn't help but curse, these prisoners have been in the infinite hell for too long, their brains have also been damaged.
They actually expected to get rid of a navy admiral with such a simple method. If he didn't need their help to escape from Impel Down, Shiryu really didn't want to deal with this group of idiots for a moment.
'Boom! '
Before Xiliu could remind the prisoners not to take it lightly, the area covered by the poisonous fire exploded, and the violent airflow carrying the highly poisonous scale powder and scorching flames blasted in all directions.
The prisoners who were unable to dodge were hit by the poisonous fire and fell down without even having time to scream.
But not all prisoners were so bad. Xilu swung his sword and danced, blocking everything that flew towards him.
Redfield's umbrella sword was so fast that only an afterimage was left, shattering all the poisonous fires in front of him.
Waldo took a deep breath, his chest puffed up, and then the Momo Fruit amplified Waldo's breath a hundred times, turning it into a strong wind that blew away the poisonous fire.
The remaining prisoners also showed their skills, using the abilities of devil fruits to dodge and block, but most of them just used armed color domineering to withstand it.
"Well, you all seem quite capable, so I'll be more serious... Don't let too many of you die at once!"
Borsalino chuckled and drew out the second lightsaber from the void. Although he was not as pure as Hawkeye, he was definitely a swordsman at the level of a great swordsman, and it was not difficult for him to practice dual swords occasionally.
"Waldo takes the lead! We hold them back!"
Redfield only had time to give a warning before Borsalino, holding two knives, appeared in front of the escaped prisoners at a speed that was no less than his, but he did not start killing them directly.
"Good afternoon."
Borsalino greeted the prisoners with a smile, and the frightened prisoners nodded subconsciously.
"good afternoon……"
There were even some clever prisoners who took the initiative to apologize with a smile, saying that it would be fine as long as Borsalino was not going to kill them.
"It should have been such a wonderful afternoon, but unfortunately there were always some annoying bugs that prevented me from enjoying a pleasant afternoon tea with Gion. Do you think these annoying guys should die?"
Borsalino said with a smile. Based on his understanding of Dorag, all the prisoners who had some value in saving had been taken away, and those who remained were mostly scum who deserved to die or especially deserved to die.
If it weren't for the fact that they still had the only value of 'preserving' the devil fruit, Borsalino would definitely not mind sending all of these scumbags to hell.
"Do it!"
The prisoners' faces changed drastically, and the two guys who seemed to be users of animal-type devil fruits quickly grew in size.
The prisoners who are qualified to be imprisoned in the Infinite Hell were at least at the level of supernovas in the ocean. It is no surprise that the two people who ate animal-type devil fruits both had awakened devil fruits.
Both his combat power and vitality are extremely strong. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to stop Borsalino...
However, just as the other prisoners were retreating rapidly, trying to create some distance and then use their devil fruit abilities to fight Borsalino.
"Dual Blade Style·Flash·Arc Slash!"
Facing two animal-type ability users with awakened Devil Fruit abilities, Borsalino grinned and chuckled, and the crossed lightsabers in his hands drew two arcs of light in the air.
The next moment, the two animal-type ability users who had just completed their transformation froze in place, their huge heads fell off their necks, and then blood gushed out of their necks.
No matter how strong the vitality is, being beheaded by Borsalino is the worst kind of death.
"Redthorn!"
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Redfield, who was the fastest, arrived in time. His umbrella sword was so fast that only an afterimage was left, piercing the air with a sharp whistling sound. In the blink of an eye, he stabbed Borsalino with hundreds of swords.
At this time, Redfield has just regained the style of the former Red Earl and the Lone Red. The umbrella sword wrapped in the armed color of domineering is in his hand, turning into an indestructible magic weapon. Even the admiral of the navy will be defeated by him!
"Thunderstorm Flow. Slash!"
Shiliu also tried hard to control his deep fear of the naval monsters, and swung his long sword to kill fiercely. If Redfield's umbrella sword was extremely fast, then Shiliu's swordsmanship was extremely lethal.
The moment he drew his sword, astonishing murderous aura rose from his body, as if as long as he had the sword in his hand, there was no one in the world whom he could not kill!
If Redfield has merely regained his former glory, then Shiliu can definitely be said to have performed above average.
The desire for freedom overcame the fear of Borsalino in his heart, and the blow he struck at this moment was definitely at the level of a great swordsman.
Even the arrogant Redfield couldn't help but look sideways. If Xi Liu could maintain his state of mind at this moment and hone this sword to perfection, he might really have the possibility of becoming a top-level warrior.
"Dual Blade Style·Flash·Riptide Falls!"
Faced with the combined attack of two great swordsmen, Borsalino became slightly excited and swung his lightsaber at Redfield and Shiryu respectively.
The surging sword pressure came down on the two men like a landslide or tsunami. Redfield, who possessed a super strong observation Haki, instinctively retracted his sword and dodged the moment Borsalino drew his sword.
Poor Shilu had just performed beyond his level and delivered a blow that even Redfield was surprised about, but he was met with an almost overwhelming and terrifying blow from Borsalino. No matter how scared he was, he could only grit his teeth and fight hard.
The sword pressure came down like a waterfall, and Xilu's attack was defeated after only less than three seconds.
‘Clang! ’
The gap was too big. Even though Xilu had tried his best, he was still unable to withstand Borsalino's terrifying blow and was chopped away with his sword.
The broken flying slashes tore dense wounds on Shiryu's body. Shiryu, who had already reached the level of a great swordsman the moment before, fell heavily to the ground like a broken bag in the blink of an eye.
The famous sword Lei Yu also flew out of his hand, but at this time Xiliu no longer cared about this famous sword that he once regarded as his life.
He was lying on the ground, seriously injured, with a look of confusion and disbelief on his large, nearly diamond-shaped face.
How could there be such a big gap?
It was normal that he was no match for this monster in the past, but even though he had broken through himself and swung out the strongest sword in his life, he still couldn't even take on Borsalino's blow.
The most outrageous thing is that Borsalino attacked him and Redfield at the same time. In other words, this attack was only half of Borsalino's strength.
"Momo, one hundred times, iceberg!"
The slow-reacting Waldo finally took action. He picked up a piece of ice about ten feet square and threw it at Borsalino as if it were a child's play.
However, as Waldo's fruit ability was activated, the ice block, which was only about ten feet square, quickly expanded in the air. In a few breaths, it had turned into a real iceberg and smashed down on Borsalino.
The iceberg fell with a terrifying impact force. Even the giants, who were known for their extraordinary strength, would be smashed into pieces when faced with such a huge iceberg.
"It's wrong to litter..."
Borsalino raised his head calmly, and stretched out his hand without flinching in the prisoners' ecstatic gazes, as if he wanted to take the "iceberg" head-on.
"court death!"
Waldo's face, which had been frozen blue, showed a grim smile. The ice that was magnified by his Momo Fruit not only increased in weight by a hundred times, but the kinetic energy it carried, which increased a hundred times, was the most terrifying attack.
Even if Borsalino is a top-level warrior, if he dares to be so arrogant and take it head-on, the consequence will be that he will definitely be crushed by the iceberg!
"That rascal……"
A hint of expectation flashed across Redfield's face. For the Red Earl, who had always been a loner, pinning his hopes on others was an incredible thing in itself.
'Boom! '
The result that the prisoners expected, that Borsalino would be smashed into a pie, did not come true. What appeared in front of everyone was Borsalino holding up the iceberg with one hand, with a playful smile on his face.
Compared to the huge iceberg, Borsalino's figure is as small as an ant.
But even such a tiny person like Borsalino could easily lift up the iceberg thrown by Waldo with one hand.
It was as if it was not something heavy, but a light sponge.
"Are you... kidding!?"
"How strong is that guy?"
"Monster...Navy monster!"
……
The prisoners screamed in fear. After experiencing one blow after another, their fear of Borsalino had penetrated into their bones.
If the prisoners were not so eager to gain freedom, they would have chosen to surrender by now.
"…It would be terrible if it hits the flowers and plants, so I'll just give it back to you!"
Borsalino, who was holding the iceberg, grinned. The muscles in his right arm bulged slightly, and with a sudden force he threw the huge iceberg back.
The huge iceberg was roaring and falling in the air. After witnessing Borsalino's terrifying brute force, even the most arrogant prisoner could not guarantee that he would not be crushed to death on the spot.
Fortunately
"Let me do it! Saw the mountain!"
A prisoner with a pointy head jumped high into the air, and his whole body curled into a disc in the air, spinning towards the iceberg.
He is the user of the superhuman circular saw fruit, which allows him to saw through any object, no matter how solid it is.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."
The high-speed rotating circular saw man quickly cut through the floating ice on the surface of the iceberg, but what he didn't expect was that there was a layer of dark armed color domineering inside the iceberg.
The circular saw, which had always been invincible, seemed so weak in front of Borsalino's armed color domineering. By the time the circular saw man realized that something was wrong, the iceberg was about to hit Waldo's head.
"Momo, one hundred times heavier punch!"
Waldo's eyes widened and he roared, punching out with both fists to meet the attack head-on.
Waldo, who had forcibly increased his strength a hundred times, could definitely smash the iceberg under normal circumstances.
Unfortunately, when Borsalino threw out the iceberg, it was covered with a layer of armed color domineering, so the circular saw man was unable to saw it open, and Waldo was also unable to break the iceberg.
"Boom boom boom..."
The heavy iceberg pressed Waldo back continuously, and his feet sank into the soil, pushing out two deep grooves in the ground.
By the time the iceberg was finally stopped, most of Waldo's body had sunk into the ground.
"Well, you are so stubborn. Since you are so stubborn, let me give you some new things to do!"
Borsalino stroked his chin and thought for a while, then simply opened the dimensional chat group in his mind.
[Borsalino: Is Orochimaru here? ]
[Orochimaru: What's up? ]
[Borusalino: How many snakes can I hire to play with? Don't hire weak ones, or many will die.]
[Orochimaru: Just summon the Ten Thousand Snakes. It is enough on its own. If the Ten Thousand Snakes are no match for you, it will be useless to summon more.]
[Borusalino: OK, @Xiaolin Xiaolin, please help me record the transfer of the dimensional currency from my account to Orochimaru. ]
【Kobayashi: Got it! 】
……
Although Borsalino didn't think the escaped prisoners had the courage to attack him, it seemed a bit foolish to stay in a daze for too long.
After agreeing on the price for hiring Manda with Orochimaru, Borsalino turned his attention back to Impel Down.
However, in just ten seconds, the prisoners seemed to have a brief quarrel. Some prisoners who were afraid of being killed by Borsalino wanted to surrender, but were rejected by Redfield.
A conflict broke out between the two sides, and Redfield killed all the prisoners who wanted to surrender without hesitation, successfully stabilizing the "military morale".
"Waldo, the move you just made to amplify your own strength should work on me, right?"
In order to regain his freedom and pursue a longer life, Redfield changed his solitary style and chose to cooperate with Bondi Waldo.
"Your body can't handle it."
Waldo glanced at Redfield and said in a muffled voice, the power of the Momo Fruit is very strong, but the human body's ability to withstand it is limited.
