One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Even someone as strong as Barrett was killed by this seemingly harmless kid. Would anyone else dare to act recklessly?

Those imprisoned here are like fish on a chopping board, completely at the mercy of others.

When selecting prisoners, Abel quickly toured the entire sixth floor.

Indeed, no trace of Luo was found.

He sighed, realizing he had no choice but to settle for second best.

As they passed one of the cells, the person inside said, "I want to make a deal with you."

Abel stopped and looked inside; it was an 'old acquaintance'.

Charlotte Katakuri.

He wasn't surprised that this guy was imprisoned on the sixth floor.

"A trade? What do you have left to offer that would entice me?"

“I can swear allegiance to you and give my life for the rest of the Charlotte family. If you are worried, you can send them to any remote place, as long as they can live a peaceful life.”

Katakuri, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, proposed this deal.

Abel still trusted Katakuri's character, so he was considering whether the deal was worthwhile.

He thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Not enough..."

"Then what about me?"

Charlotte Smoothie also requested to join the trade.

Smoothie has no intention of spending the rest of her life here, except to risk her own life for her younger siblings' freedom.

As for the hatred over his mother's murder...

As the saying goes, what goes around comes around.

She had long expected this day to come.

If it could avenge her mother, she naturally wouldn't hesitate.

But if she never has the chance in this lifetime, then there's nothing she can do.

Abel looked at the brother and sister and said, “Alright, now swear allegiance to me.”

“I, Charlotte Katakuri, swear to be loyal to Gustavus Abel for the rest of my life, to obey his orders, until my last drop of blood is shed.”

After Katakuri swore, Smoothie repeated the same oath.

[Discipline: Oath] is activated immediately, imprinting the vow between the two into their souls.

[Precepts: Vows]

Effect: Anyone who swears an oath to you will have their soul immediately erased if they break their oath.

……

Without this, Abel wouldn't have taken anyone out with him.

"Let them out."

Shiryu took out his key and began releasing the people.

This finally made the others unable to sit still.

If Fisher Tiger is just an isolated case, then the way Katakuri and Smoothie regained their freedom is replicable.

As long as you don't become like that brainless guy Barrett, it'll be fine.

"Let me out, and I'll swear allegiance to you."

"Me too, please give me a chance, boss!"

"My bounty is high, let me go first!"

Abel narrowed his eyes, and his Conqueror's Haki swept across the entire area once again, making it difficult for these people to breathe.

It immediately became quiet.

"Who gets released and who doesn't is up to me."

"If you dare to make any more noise, that'll be what happens to you, like Barrett."

After frightening all the prisoners, Abel said to Shiliu, “Open the remaining cells and tell them that when I return, only the three who are still standing will be qualified to swear allegiance to me.”

"I like this method."

Shiliu laughed maliciously, then quickly opened all the doors to the sixth floor before following Abel and the others, temporarily leaving the area.

They let these prisoners kill each other.

Because they were still in shackles, these prisoners were able to exert limited strength.

In addition, the sea stone handcuffs were not removed, which put the ability user at a disadvantage, so they couldn't turn the tide at all.

If these prisoners don't obey, Shiryu alone could kill them all.

"While there's still time, Shiryu, take Katakuri and Smoothie and release all the Charlotte family members imprisoned on the upper floors."

Katakuri and Smoothie were stunned by these words, not expecting Abel to trust them so much.

Chapter 909 Giant Battleship and World Destroyer

Whether it was a test or an attempt to win people's hearts, Katakuri and Smoothie appreciated the favor.

Otherwise, they wouldn't feel comfortable speaking up.

"Thank you."

After Katakuri expressed his sincere gratitude, he took Smoothie to rescue his family.

Aside from those who died in battle, some of the survivors were imprisoned in Impel Down, while the rest were underage children whose whereabouts were unknown and could only be determined by venturing outside.

"Aren't you afraid they'll just run away with their men? If it's just Shiryu, I'm afraid he won't be able to stop these two."

Hawkeye Mihawk asked a question, as if both out of curiosity and a reminder.

Abel, however, said confidently, "As the saying goes, 'Trust those you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust.' Since they've sworn allegiance to me, I trust their loyalty. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"..."

Mihawk was speechless; this was not the answer he wanted.

Besides, he didn't think Abel was such a 'naive' character.

What went wrong?

Seeing Mihawk's sullen and silent expression, Abel couldn't help but secretly chuckle to himself.

Of course he wasn't worried; he just ran away.

With the [Commandment: Oath] in place, if they try to escape, it's equivalent to breaking the commandment, and they will instantly have their souls erased and die.

He suffered no loss whatsoever, so what is there to worry about?

It's just that there's no way to explain this to others.

As time went by, the battle in the sixth level of the Infinite Hell gradually came to an end.

With only three spots available, everyone is working incredibly hard.

If you don't fight for it, someone else will.

Then I can only ask you to die!

The good news is that the strongest Barrett is already dead.

The bad news is that the true 'strongest' on the sixth floor... has awakened.

When Shiryu returned with Katakuri and Smoothie, Abel raised an eyebrow. "What, you couldn't find them?"

Katakuri quickly explained, "No, those imprisoned in Impel Down have all been rescued, so I simply let them go up first."

Very good, this is the beginning of drawing boundaries.

Know what you should and shouldn't do.

Emotional intelligence is very high.

No wonder he's the most popular older brother in the Charlotte family.

Abel nodded slightly, then his expression shifted. "It seems our warriors have already decided the victor. Let's go and see who the final winner is."

Led by Abel, they returned to the prison area.

The released prisoners were lying on the ground, their fates unknown.

In the end, only three prisoners were still standing.

The most eye-catching of them all is the San Juan Wolf, nicknamed "The Giant Battleship," which you have to look up to!

He's 180 meters tall!

He's as fat as a ball.

I have no idea how someone of this enormous size was kept on the sixth floor.

The entrance when you come down definitely can't hold one that big.

Furthermore, Abel has another problem: how much food does Impel Down need to provide to keep this guy so fat?

So all the funds allocated by the World Government are being used here?

Within this sixth layer, the false strongest: Douglas Barrett.

The true strongest: San Juan Wolf!

In such a confined space, with everyone shackled and unable to use their Devil Fruit abilities, no one could possibly be a match for San Juan Wolf.

One slap and he'd be smashed into a pulp.

In addition, this guy is simple-minded and easy to control, making him a very suitable person to take out.

Abel was very satisfied with this, and then looked at the other two.
