One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Ignoring the harsh laughter coming from all directions, Hannibal dragged his right leg, which had been crushed by the floorboards, and firmly walked to the middle of the corridor, gripping the Bloodsucking Blade tightly in his hand. He pointed the blade at Barrett, who was looking at him.

"It was my fault for losing the keys, it was my negligence that caused this disaster, and I have failed the director's trust."

He watched the enormous figure slowly approaching from the depths of the corridor, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Hannibal was terrified; the aura emanating from Barrett made him feel as if he were facing a surging sea of ​​blood.

"Get out of the way."

Barrett walked up to Hannibal and uttered two words.

"Don't even think about it!!"

Hannibal gripped the long sword, which had become hot and red, tightly in his hand, trying to control his trembling hands and feet.

But it was to no avail.

Barrett, so close at hand, seemed like a mountain blocking his path; the sheer presence he exuded made Hannibal want to kneel down.

To combat this feeling of frustration, powerlessness, and fear, Hannibal gritted his teeth, yelled, and swung his iron-like longsword at Barrett.

"Scorching Hell Chariot!"

"Ok?"

Barrett let out another low, soft exclamation, and looking at the scorching longsword slashing towards him, he suddenly swung out his huge palm and casually slapped it down.

"Oh!"

Hannibal, who was wielding his sword, was sent flying without any suspense. The long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the sound of bones breaking came from his wrists. He crashed into the collapsed ceiling behind him, covered in blood.

Several dazed jailer beasts, seeing Hannibal being sent flying, immediately opened their mouths and let out a deep, angry roar, charging angrily towards Barrett.

Seeing four Jailer Beasts, each roughly the same size as himself, charging towards him, Barrett grinned, then suddenly stomped his foot, clenched his right fist, and punched the fastest Minotaur.

"Moo!"

The Minotaur showed no fear, let out a shout, and threw a punch at Barrett as well.

The two fists, roughly the same size, collided in mid-air, and the Minotaur's arm shattered from joint to joint.

Barrett's fist crushed against its own, shoving it all the way through, smashing the Minotaur's entire right arm into a bloody pulp, before finally landing his fist on the Minotaur's face.

"Oh!"

With a muffled thud, the Jailer Beast, whose vitality was so vigorous that it was practically indestructible, lost its massive bull head, along with half of its chest cavity, from its neck.

"Whoosh!"

Barrett's massive figure vanished from its spot, and when it reappeared, it had grabbed the heads of the two jailer beasts, Mino Zebra and Mino Koala, one in each hand, and slammed them together with a smile.

"boom!"

Another loud bang, and the heads of the two jailer beasts collided and exploded like rotten watermelons, splattering Barrett with blood and bits of flesh.

He stuck out his tongue, licked a piece of flesh that had flown onto his face, and slowly chewed it.

"Boom boom boom!"

The ground shook, and the last Jailer Beast, the Minotaur, charged forward on all fours, trying to knock Barrett away with its sharp horns.

However, the next second, Barrett raised his right foot high and slammed it into the ground.

There was no loud roar, but the ground he stepped on rippled forward like water.

The hard ground transformed into countless tiny cubes, like a torrent of waves, washing over and swirling across the ground, completely enveloping the charging Minotaur and propelling it into the air.

Countless cubes rotated and transformed into a giant hand, which grasped the five-meter-tall jailer beast in its palm and squeezed it in the middle.

Blood gushed out like a waterfall from the gaps between the countless blocks.

Barrett stood below the giant, blocky hand, holding a cup made of countless blocks. He caught a sip of the thick, viscous blood pouring down from above, took a large gulp, and looked ecstatic.

Then he saw a swaying figure crawl out of the rubble and stagger toward him again.

"As long as people like you exist at sea, civilians will suffer sleepless nights from the fear of losing their loved ones. To put the weak at ease, I will imprison you vicious criminals. This is the great fortress of the prison. If it is destroyed, the world will be plunged into endless terror. Since I said I wouldn't let you out, I won't let you out an inch."

Hannibal, panting and trembling, opened his twisted, broken arms to Barrett under Ivankov's shocked gaze.

"If you want to escape, step over my dead body, Douglas Barrett!"

Magellan, who had charged through the scorching hell via the poisonous dragon, did not go to the elevator shaft. Instead, he rushed directly into the broken blood pool entrance and plunged down into the infinite hell below through the collapsed gap.

While suspended in mid-air, the number of poisonous dragons on his body was increasing one by one.

When Magellan landed on the collapsed floor of the Frozen Hell, nine purple venomous dragons, each tens of meters long, extended outwards from behind him and rushed into the collapsed gap in an instant.

The nine venomous dragons intertwined and sealed the huge gap, hundreds of meters in diameter, with their massive bodies, leaving not a single gap.

Not only that, two more enormous poisonous dragons burst forth from Magellan's body, charging towards the elevator and spiral staircase.

The massive amount of liquid poison instantly blocked the elevators and stairs leading to the endless hell.

The prisoners below could only get up by passing through the poison wall he had set up.

And in the entire Infinite Hell, there are very few people who can survive passing through their own venom walls.

Magellan plunged headfirst into the viscous, purplish-black venom before him, leaping through the opening into the endless hell.

Then Magellan saw the Jailer Beast lying in a pool of blood, and... Hannibal.

He glanced expressionlessly at Barrett and Ryder as they walked out of the cell, and behind them, Bucky, who was carrying keys and going to various cells to quickly open cell doors and unlock the handcuffs of the prisoners.

He slowly bent down and reached out to grab Hannibal.

Magellan patted Hannibal's head and said gently, "Hannibal, listen, you can't die. I need you to succeed me as commissioner. Live well, do you hear me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a purple venomous dragon emerged from behind him, biting Hannibal, who was covered in blood and barely breathing. It then rushed up the gap in Hannibal's head and sent him flying.

Barrett picked up one of the Sphinx's forelegs from the ground, ignoring the blood, dust, and fur on it, and bit into it.

He munched on his food with relish while looking at Magellan with interest.

"Magellan, are you going to take on all of us by yourself?"

Magellan remained silent. The purple poison that had been gushing from his towering body transformed into dark red venom, resembling countless rust crystals oozing from his body.

The spot where he stood seemed to have become a spring constantly spewing out dark red rust, instantly pouring out waves of hellish poison.

Wherever that dark red, blood-like hellish poison passed, the ground melted, and the iron fences hissed with white smoke, turning into dripping, glowing red-hot iron.

Barrett, who was eating, stopped in his tracks. Ryder frowned. The ecstatic look that had just appeared on the faces of the prisoners that Bucky had released instantly turned into endless terror.

A massive, dark red hand burst forth from the churning hellish poison, slamming down upon Barrett and his companions.

"If you want to get out of here, step over my dead body."

"A giant poison soldier! Judgment from Hell!"

Chapter 667 ASL

The arrival of several uninvited guests in Marineford, seemingly from the sky, initially silenced the chaotic battlefield, but then immediately erupted into chaos.

"That's... Hades! Silvers Rayleigh!"

A marine exclaimed in surprise.

"That blind man is the swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates! The strongest supernova of the Worst Generation, the blind swordsman Issho with a bounty of 3 billion Berries!"

"Who is that white-haired female samurai? She's amazing! She actually managed to knock away Marine Admiral Kizaru!"

"Look at the execution platform! Those two boys... they look like Sabo, the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army, and Straw Hat Boy, the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates!"

Seeing the sudden appearance of several people who blocked several heavyweight admirals in the Navy, the Whitebeard Pirates, whose morale had been severely damaged by Blackbeard and Sengoku's words and Rorschach's previous cruel methods, instantly perked up and regained their confidence. They couldn't help but let out a deafening cheer, as if trying to dispel the fear in their hearts by shouting.

On the Navy side, although their morale wasn't significantly damaged, the fierce momentum they had generated after Rorschach and Akainu entered the fray was still contained.

After all, the one who came was the renowned legendary pirate, Rayleigh, the Dark King.

“Rayleigh… I didn’t expect you to come. On behalf of Ace… thank you.”

Whitebeard, who had coughed up a lot of blood, bared his teeth and, ignoring the exhaustion surging through his body, forced Akainu, who was also seriously injured, back with a shockwave from his punch. Only then did he lean on Murakumogiri and whisper something to Rayleigh from afar.

Rayleigh gave a wry smile upon hearing this, "Whitebeard, I'm not happy to hear you say that at all. Actually, it's our Roger Pirates who wronged Roger. Ace was Roger's son, so I should have come to help him out of both obligation and reason."

Whitebeard nodded, then paused for a moment looking at Issho and Yamato before focusing his gaze on Ace, Sabo, and Luffy on the execution platform.

Finally, his gaze fell on the straw hat hanging around Luffy's neck.

Is that the Straw Hat Boy that Ace often mentioned?

It would allow the redhead to entrust his arm to someone of the new era.

The person Roger and Shanks were waiting for?

Seeing Luffy's face, which was filled with joy and tears and still had a touch of childishness, a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in Whitebeard's eyes.

If this Straw Hat Boy is really that amazing, maybe he really can rescue Ace.

Amidst the shattered ruins, Luo Xia slowly rose, gripping the Heavenly Dragon Halberd. He glanced at the massive, half-meter-long gash cut into his right forearm, his gaze growing increasingly cold.

The crackling electricity surged and danced across his arms, stimulating his powerful body and causing muscle fibers to regenerate wildly.

In Rayleigh's eyes, Rorschach's right arm, which had withstood his powerful attack, was rapidly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was once again covered with fine scales, tinged with a deep blue luster.

Rayleigh's expression became more solemn than ever before, gripping his long sword, showing no sign of underestimating Rorschach.

"Such strong recovery ability. You truly deserve the title of the strongest creature in the Navy. I admit that I underestimated you on the Golden Ship, Vice Admiral Bluescale."

Rorschach stared coldly at him. "Rayleigh, what did I say last time? How dare your Roger Pirates show up again?"

Rayleigh paused for a moment, glanced at Issho, who was already fighting Aokiji in the distance, and Luffy on the execution platform, before turning back to Rorschach, who was walking towards him. He said, "Coming here was my own choice, and it has nothing to do with the rest of the Roger Pirates. Issho and Luffy are the same. I hope you won't take your anger out on the others because of this. Luffy... has kept his promise and disbanded the pirate crew."

"Whatever." Rorschach said no more. With a stomp of his foot, his massive body crashed down on Rayleigh like Mount Tai.

On the execution platform!

Seeing Sengoku begin to radiate a brilliant golden light, Sabo's expression changed drastically. He flashed in front of Luffy, his right hand transforming into a dragon claw, with dark Armament Haki emanating from his fingers. He preemptively struck, leaping into the air and grabbing at Sengoku's face.

"Luffy! I'll hold him off! Quickly use the technique I taught you before to unlock Ace's seastone handcuffs. Remember to cover them with Haki, otherwise the seastone will affect his strength!"

"Understood, Sabo!"

Hearing this, Luffy, who was excitedly hugging Ace behind him, quickly ran behind Ace, extended one of his fingers, covered in dark Armament Haki, and shoved it into the lock of the Seastone handcuffs on Ace's wrist.

"No key? You have to unlock it with your finger?"
