I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Boom!Boom!

The roar of the Emperor's engine was awakened at this moment, and the rapid heartbeats resounded like drumbeats across the battlefield.

Barrett's tower fist appeared slow but was actually fast, and its attack range was extremely large. With Sig's speed, it was impossible for him to dodge it. Sig was left with only one option: to confront it head-on.

At that moment, Sieg stood suspended in mid-air and began his chanting.

"I am the overlord of chaos."

The infernal flames of sin flickering in the abyss.

Twisted, dim flames; chaotic, crimson darkness.

At that moment, raging black flames gradually rose from Sieg's body, enveloping him completely.

With each word Sieg uttered, the dark flames rose and fell, as if nourished by some kind of sustenance, and subtly grew stronger.

"It drives people mad, leading them into a dying light."

With sin upon sin, black fragments are etched upon his body.

Let us defy the arrogant destiny!

The moment the incantation was finished... the chuunibyou energy had quietly risen back to the limit of 100!

[Chuunibyou Power: Chuunibyou energy can be accumulated by performing chuunibyou actions. When the energy reaches 50, the ability [Dark Flame Master] can be temporarily activated. The maximum chuunibyou energy gauge is twice the compatibility percentage.]

The Dark Flame Master, Phase Three Unlocked!

Sig opened his eyes and stared at the giant fist falling from the sky. He stretched out his hands forward, palms facing each other.

"This is all I have left, Barrett!" Sieg roared.

"Secret Technique!"

"True Hellfire Unrivaled-------"

The jet-black flames swirling around him seemed to be drawn by some immense force, all converging between Sieg's palms, condensing into an extremely deep and dark ball of black flame, like a black hole.

"Blazing Wave Cannon!"

With that roar, Sieg pushed his palm outwards with all his might!

The extremely dark and black fireball suddenly shot into the sky, heading straight for the tower's giant fist that was falling like a meteor!

"I will not lose! Because I am the strongest!" Barrett roared, and at that moment, the giant fist of the tower quietly expanded by one size!

And the next moment.

A powerful, jet-black flame erupted in the air, transforming into a vast, dark ocean that instantly pierced through the tower's giant fist, completely engulfing it.

As flames engulfed the tower's arm, Barrett finally revealed her astonishment.

After merging with Impel Down, Impel Down is now as easy to control as Barrett's new body, almost like an extension of her own arm.

But after being enveloped by strange, pitch-black flames, Barrett's tower arm lost all sensation.

"Damn it! Is this Sigzang's trump card? It's really impressive..."

"Even my Armament Haki, honed to its peak, couldn't withstand that strange flame..."

The dark flames flowed and surged upwards along the Impel Down Giant's arm, spreading like a malignant tumor towards the Impel Down Giant's shoulder. Upon seeing this, Barrett made a decisive move and immediately released control of the Fusion Fruit.

The arm has detached!

That giant arm, wreathed in black flames, was deliberately abandoned by Barrett and fell from the sky like a mountain descending to the ground.

Amidst the deafening roar, the shockwave of smoke and dust swept in all directions, and the arm of the Impel Down tower collapsed into a pile of rubble. The ground trembled incessantly, and amidst the rubble, wisps of black flame still burned quietly.

"The Impel Down Titan's arm is just severed like that?"

"A punch capable of shattering glaciers couldn't stop Sig's pitch-black flames?"

At that moment, countless powerful figures' pupils suddenly contracted.

Barrett is one of the strongest prisoners in Impel Down. Although he is arrogant, his formidable strength makes him one of the top powerhouses in the entire ocean.

Whitebeard, Golden Lion, and the others narrowed their eyes, having discerned even more.

"The Impel Down Titan's arm wasn't burned off by Siegfried."

"It's Barrett, he's trying to save his life by cutting off his arm!"

"That strange black flame not only broke through Barrett's Armament Haki head-on, but also forced Barrett to give up an arm?"

Barrett's Impel Down Titan form is incredibly powerful; the larger she is, the more destructive she becomes. At the size of the Impel Down Titan, a single punch is like an earthquake or natural disaster, something ordinary people simply cannot withstand.

It's important to understand that a single punch from the Impel Down Titans is enough to crack a glacier. If it were Whitebeard or Shiki, it wouldn't be wise to withstand such an attack.

The best way to deal with such a large monster is to attack its weak points rather than to launch a frontal assault.

However, Siegfried surprisingly chose this head-on confrontation, directly crippling Barrett's arm. A complete head-on clash, without a single trick.

"Heh... Sig didn't say it, but he was probably already bursting with anger. Barrett was too arrogant, but unfortunately she ran into an even more arrogant one."

"Sigu is the kind of guy who sings 'Invincible' in front of the Four Emperors and Admirals. Did Barrett offend him?"

The golden lion smiled slightly.

"Damn it... It's just one arm I've lost, I haven't lost yet!"

As Barrett roared, her face gradually darkened.

Impel Down is a tower-shaped fortress, with the main buildings located below sea level. The deeper you go, the stronger the prisoners become.

To prevent deep-sea sea monsters from breaching the walls and to prevent prisoners from escaping from the lower levels, the outer walls of the lower levels were primarily constructed using sea stone...

Although Barrett's giant body is not affected by Seastone and loses its abilities, it is also unable to use the Fusion Fruit's power to fuse the Seastone portion of the wall into its own body.

In addition, Aokiji had deliberately frozen the underwater glaciers, so the Impel Down Titan was actually a half-giant that was difficult to move.

"Destroying one of my arms must have taken a toll on Sig too... Victory will ultimately be mine!"

Barrett roared, and with her remaining arm, she reached out to grab Sieg in mid-air.

At this moment, Sieg finally drew the longsword from his waist. Wisps of black flame spread from his arm to the sword, burning quietly on its surface.

"Anyone who can't even put their hands together is not worthy to be my enemy!"

With a single slash, a jet-black flame of sword light suddenly shone forth, striking the tower's arm in an instant.

Rumble!

Where the sword light struck, the dark purple Armament Haki was only held for a moment before being completely shattered. The giant arm made of bricks and stones broke into countless rubble and fragments, which scattered in all directions.

This sword strike severed the second arm in two once more. The severed arm fell to the ground from the sky, sending up a cloud of dust and creating a continuous rumbling sound.

Sig stood in the air with black flames swirling around his left hand and a longsword in his right, his back to the crowd, his robes fluttering in the wind.

This time, Sig's figure, compared to the Impel Down giant with both arms severed, no longer appeared insignificant, subtly instilling fear in the hearts of pirates and marines.

This seemingly thin and frail figure appeared even more terrifying and powerful than the towering Impel Down giants.

........

Unbeknownst to anyone, Sieg's heart skipped a beat at that moment.

He suddenly thought of a question.

As a man who had read the script, Sigurd understood the specific effects of the Barrett Fusion Fruit.

Once the Impel Down Titan falls, Barrett herself will regain her mobility. At that point, with both arms intact, Sig will be unable to deal with Barrett.

After all, Barrett isn't a Gundam pilot. In his base form, aside from being slightly less destructive, his speed far surpasses that of his Titan form.

On this vast battlefield, even if Crocodile were to let Sig poke her at will, Sig simply couldn't keep up with Barrett's speed.

Unless Sieg's sword strike kills both the Impel Down Titan and Barrett herself, or severs one of Barrett's arms.

So the question is, where exactly is Barrett's real body located in Impel Down?

If they fail to kill Barrett's true form and allow her to revert to her original form, Sig himself will be the one to die!

Thinking about it this way, Sieg gradually broke out in a cold sweat.

With his longsword in hand, Sieg had encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to freely unleash the pinnacle of mortal swordsmanship.

But at this moment, he felt completely insecure and had no idea where to begin.

Chapter 552 I Don't Want to Die!

The Impel Down giant, towering like a mountain range, could destroy the glacial battlefield with a single blow, forcibly halting the war between the pirate alliance and the navy.

But he couldn't withstand more than two moves from Sieg, and both his arms were shattered and severed.

Such a huge difference left everyone stunned.

"What's going on? The fight between Sig and Barrett is happening way too fast!"

The golden lion's eyes widened slightly, and he frowned as he held the cigar in his mouth.

Barrett's strength is beyond doubt. Although he has confidence in Sieg, he also believes that the battle between the two strong men will be a protracted and fierce struggle.

At the level of Golden Lion, Whitebeard, and others, a battle between two top-tier powerhouses could last for days and nights, with no quick victor.

Especially someone like Barrett, a powerful user with extremely strong Armament Haki. Her attack and defense are both incredibly formidable; even against Whitebeard, it would be impossible to end the battle quickly.

Whether it's Shiki, Whitebeard, or Sengoku, they all have to admit: Barrett may be arrogant, but he certainly has the right to be arrogant.

No one expected that the battle between Sig and Barrett had only just begun, yet it was already nearing its end.

With both arms broken by Sieg in two moves... does Barrett really have any chance to fight back?

Many people couldn't understand this scene.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period, the remnants of the army have been gathered together."

Akainu stood beside Sengoku and asked in a low voice:

"The battle between Sig and Barrett is almost over... What should we do now?"

He and Sengoku looked up at the sky, where the two giant arms had fallen to the ground and shattered into rubble and ruins.

Sig suddenly stopped moving. He stood in mid-air, holding his sword in one hand, seemingly deep in thought, and did not continue to attack.

But then, something unexpected happened.
