Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

With Reina wielding Senbonzakura and Hyōrinmaru already in human form, they relentlessly attacked Magellan. Hyōrinmaru's attributes were also effective against Magellan, making the situation even worse.

Aside from Magellan, the warden Isaac was also fighting the Nine-Tails to a standstill. However, Isaac's attacks couldn't cause any real damage to the Nine-Tails, but every time the Nine-Tails attacked him, it inflicted considerable damage.

So now Shiryu feels that the breakthrough might very well be with him.

Although the Golden Lion kept pressing him, he could sense that the opponent wasn't going all out, because he wasn't going all out either, keeping a backup plan to escape at any time.

He was no longer the Shiryu of the Rain he once was. Because of the massacre in Impel Down, the higher-ups were quite dissatisfied with him, and he could sense that their patience with him was almost gone.

"Kid, you're distracted while fighting me? Are you looking for death?" The Golden Lion clenched his fists, and the rocks on the ground rolled up to form a huge stone lion, which charged towards Shiryu.

"Rainy Night - Thrust!" The Thunderstorm Blade in his hand thrust forward, its tip shimmering with water-like patterns, then rippled outwards, smashing half of the stone lion's head off. But the stone lion showed no sign of stopping, continuing to charge towards the owl and burying him.

"Hehehehe..." Shiki, floating in the air, laughed triumphantly, having been the first to defeat his opponent.

"Hehe... As expected of Brother Shiki! Hyōrinmaru, we can't lose either! Senbonzakura: Kageyoshi!" Reina released Senbonzakura from his hand, and the ground turned into a water ripple, directly swallowing Senbonzakura.

"The Great Poisonous Soldier - Poison Dragon!" Upon seeing this, Magellan's expression changed, and the venom surrounding his body surged, forming a giant poison dragon.

Suddenly, Hyōrinmaru appeared beside Magellan. With a flick of his hand, Hyōrinmaru pierced a part of the poison dragon, and ice immediately began to spread from there, seemingly threatening to freeze Magellan.

However, before the ice could completely cover the poison dragon, countless huge blades suddenly appeared all around, then shattered and turned into cherry blossoms.

As cherry blossoms fall, the ice shatters.

"Die!" After the ice shattered, Magellan, who had been hiding deep within the poisonous dragon, was revealed. A gentle breeze blew by, and the petals bypassed the remaining ice, heading directly towards Magellan's true form.

"Pfft pfft..." Cherry blossoms fluttered, and Magellan, who stood there motionless, was directly dispersed into countless venomous droplets, scattering in all directions like water droplets.

"Heh... You've got some skill, actually managing to jump over it!" Not far away, countless venomous droplets converged, transforming into the panting Magellan.

“The same tricks can’t kill me forever!” Magellan said with a hint of pride.

He certainly has something to be proud of for escaping Reina's combined killing moves.

"Boom!"

Before he could continue speaking, a figure descended from the sky and landed not far from him; it was Isaac, who had been struck by the Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Director! Are you alright?!" Magellan stepped back a few paces, blocking Isaac's path, and asked with a hint of concern.

Shiryu's fate is currently unknown. If Isaac is defeated again, Impel Down will be truly doomed.

He no longer wanted the navy's rescue. The intelligence he had received earlier indicated that the Golden Lion had led countless monsters to attack Marineford. Now it seemed that this was just a tactic to hold off the navy in order to completely breach Impel Down.

“He won’t die! But this fox demon… is really troublesome! Even domineering aura can’t restrain him!” Isaac wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up again, and said.

"Hehehe... Don't underestimate the Nine-Tailed Fox!" Reina smiled slightly and pointed at the Nine-Tailed Fox in the air.

As Reina finished speaking, the Nine-Tailed Fox in the air opened its mouth and began to gather energy again.

"Oh no, it's that same trick again!" Isaac's expression changed as he exclaimed.

"It's over!" Magellan closed his eyes in pain.

The reason why the three of them were so easily suppressed by Reina and Shiki was because the three of them had worked together to block the Tailed Beast Ball. Otherwise, the terrifying energy explosion would have destroyed more than just the surface part of Impel Down.

Given the current situation, he and Isaac are even less able to stop it, especially with Golden Lion and Reina still here.

"Hehehehe...Isn't there still time? You're too wicked, kid!" The golden lion slowly floated to Reina's side and said with a strange laugh.

"Hehe... I just chose the fastest and least strenuous way!" Reina chuckled, then slowly retreated with Hyōrinmaru and Golden Lion.

They had no intention of stopping Magellan and Isaac.

Although it's been less than ten minutes since the Nine-Tails was summoned, it's not far off. Leaving in this way is the best way to send them off.

Moreover, even if Magellan and Isaac could block the Tailed Beast Ball, they wouldn't be able to stop Reina and Shiki at that point. What difference would they be from lambs to the slaughter?

Capturing Magellan and then taking him and Robin to the West Sea to pay respects to Olvia would be more in line with Reina's wishes than killing him here.

After Reina and the other two retreated a certain distance, the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball was almost complete.

"Heh... I didn't expect that little mouse to be quite capable!" The Golden Lion in the distance discovered that Shiryu of the Rain, whom he had buried earlier, had actually appeared. However, the other party did not have any intention of staying to resist the Tailed Beast Ball, but instead chose to run away.

Moreover, the escape route he chose was quite clever; instead of jumping into the sea to escape, he ran directly towards the area below Impel Down.

With Magellan and Isaac blocking our way, escaping to the bottom of Impel Down is the only way to survive.

“You underestimate him! That guy… is known as the Dragon of Rain! Although I think he doesn’t quite deserve that title! But his strength is still quite good!” Reina said with a light laugh.

His meaning was clear: he was telling Shiki that a guy like that couldn't possibly be taken down so easily.

However, Shiki did not refute it. Reina naturally knew that he had not gone all out, but it didn't matter. Just like when Reina used his subordinates to hold off the Navy in Marineford, he didn't say anything either.

In any case, Reina's only target is Magellan; he doesn't care about the lives of Shiliu and Isaac.

"Hehehe... It's over!" Reina chuckled as he watched the completed Tailed Beast Ball fly towards Impel Down.

But at that moment, Reina suddenly noticed that many figures had appeared on the ruins of Impel Down.

"You want to destroy my Impel Down... Did you even ask for my opinion? Magellan... If I die... the Warden's position won't be yours!" Suddenly, Hannibal, covered in blood, appeared with countless Impel Down guards, blocking Magellan and Isaac's path. They intended to use their own flesh and blood to block the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball.

"Hey... what do you mean by Impel Down? I'm not dead yet! And you're already talking about the warden's position? Isn't that a bit disrespectful?" Isaac rolled his eyes and said, "But... Hannibal! Don't you dare die! If you hold on, after this is over, I'll promote you to deputy warden!"

"Hahaha... So that's how it is! Hannibal Carnival: Scorching Hell Cart!" Seeing the Tailed Beast Ball getting closer and closer, Hannibal did not hesitate at all. Although he was trembling with fear, he still went to meet the Tailed Beast Ball.

Countless jailers made the same choice as him, with several jailer beasts, such as the Minotaur, who had awakened their Devil Fruit abilities, leading the charge.

"Boom~~~"

"Boom boom boom~~~~"

After the violent explosion, the area where Impel Down was located had disappeared, and a huge whirlpool was blasted into the sea.

Because the part of Impel Down that disappeared caused the sea level to rise above Impel Down, the sea began to flow back into Impel Down after the whirlpool disappeared, causing the prisoners inside to start shouting and screaming.

"Tsk tsk tsk... What a formidable fellow! Impel Down... is doomed!" Shiki the Golden Lion, floating in the air, shook his head and laughed.

“Alright, now I’m going to find Magellan, and our mission will be complete. Of course, if there’s anyone in Impel Down that Brother Shiki has his eye on, now’s a chance!” Reina, standing on Hardshell’s back, said with a light laugh.

Hyōrinmaru has reverted to its blade form and returned to Reina's hands. It would be more convenient for him to have flight capabilities for the next mission, which is why he chose Hyōrinmaru.

But just as the two were about to go over, they suddenly discovered that, without them noticing, the Gate of Justice in the distance was slowly opening.

"Hmm? Brother Shiki... what's wrong over there?" Reina asked, frowning.

Golden Lion frowned, then took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed Indigo's number.

"Burp burp... burp burp..." The Den Den Mushi rang for a long time, but no one answered.

"Looks like something really happened! I didn't expect the Navy Headquarters to wipe them all out so quickly!" Reina shook his head and said.

Chapter 529 Reinforcements Arrive

"So? Should we retreat? In this situation, you might not even be able to find that guy's body!" Shiki asked with a smile, looking at the opened Gates of Justice and the countless naval warships that had come to the rescue.

"Hehe...that guy isn't so easy to kill! If you want to retreat...Brother Shiki can go first!" Reina smiled slightly, released Hyōrinmaru directly, and flew towards the location of Impel Down.

The navy personnel who rushed to the rescue were astonished to see that the former site of Impel Down had been turned into a huge crater.

"What... what on earth happened here?" As the vanguard, Vice Admiral Momonga, who was the first to arrive, could hardly believe his eyes when he saw the scene before him.

This is Impel Down, you know!

Impel Down, the underwater prison, has been a symbolic building since the day it was built. It is the graveyard of pirates, the place where evil is punished, and the place where justice is served.

But now?

It's gone! At least from his perspective, there was nothing on the sea except for a large crater.

"Lieutenant General! Look, that's...that's Akame Reyna!" A soldier pointed into the distance and shouted in terror as Reyna flew toward Impel Down.

"Red-Eyed Reina! Golden Lion Shiki! Phew... I see! Report the situation here to the Marshal immediately! All warships... speed up!" Vice Admiral Momonga immediately realized that this place must have been captured by Reina and Shiki.

As for Marineford, it's just a smokescreen!

This is why Marineford resolved the problem as soon as Aokiji and Akainu returned.

When news of the attack on Impel Down arrived, no one, including Sengoku, expected that Reyna was involved.

"I understand. Tell Vice Admiral Momonga not to rush. We'll go together once the reinforcements arrive!" Sengoku sighed after receiving the message.

"So, the one who's been strategizing for the Golden Lion... is that guy Reina?" Vice Admiral Tsuru, who was standing next to Sengoku, had naturally heard the report.

“It must be him!” Sengoku said, looking around at the ruined Marineford before stepping down from the platform.

"Where are you going?" Lieutenant General Tsuru asked, seemingly sensing something.

"Now that he's here... we can't let him leave so easily!" Sengoku said without turning his head.

Soon, with Akainu and Vice Admiral Tsuru staying at headquarters to handle the aftermath, Sengoku, accompanied by Aokiji, headed straight for Impel Down!

As for Kizaru, he had already set off after Vice Admiral Momonga, and should have arrived near Impel Down by now.

Meanwhile, when Reyna arrived above Impel Down, the first person he spotted was not Magellan, but Isaac, who was slumped on the ground.

"As expected of the warden! He actually survived?" Reina said with a light laugh as he slowly descended.

“You have achieved your goal!” Isaac said expressionlessly.

He no longer had the ability to fight Reina, which is why he had no intention of resisting.

“Sorry, really not! My goal... has always been only him!” Reina walked towards Isaac, but did not stop in front of him. Instead, he walked past Isaac and went to Magellan, who was already unconscious behind him.

Isaac did not stop Reyner; at this point, he couldn't even protect himself, let alone Magellan.

"This guy... I'm taking him with me! Tell the Navy for me... He's trying to mess with my Whitebeard Pirates? He'll break his teeth!" Reina picked up Magellan and prepared to leave.

"I don't see the need for messengers! Hehehe... How about I take you back to Marineford, and you go and tell them yourself?" A flash of light materialized into the form of Kizaru, who chuckled and said, "Tsk tsk tsk... This is supposed to be the underwater prison! To have it turned into this state... It's truly... terrifying!"

"Kizaru, are you trying to stop me?" Reina looked up at Kizaru and asked.

"Actually, I wanted to say... I really don't want to, but I don't know if you believe me?" Kizaru replied lazily.

“Looks like I can’t leave without defeating you…” Reina took out a pair of seastone handcuffs, put them on Magellan, tossed him aside, and said to Kizaru with a smile.

"Please don't talk about such terrible things, okay? I..."

Before Kizaru could finish speaking, he instantly transformed into his elemental form, turning into a streak of light and disappearing into the distance.

The moment he left, the Hyōrinmaru in Reina's hand appeared where he had just stood.

"If you're going to fight, stop wasting your breath on me!" Reina launched a direct attack. Due to his Sharingan, his attacks became even more ferocious, instantly suppressing Kizaru.

"You've gotten stronger again!" Kizaru's casual expression vanished, replaced by a serious look.
