Chapter 397: Fierce Battle
Chapter 397: Fierce Battle
Bang bang bang!
The sound of gunshots echoed continuously throughout Impel Down.
A group of pirates led by Allan were engaged in a fierce battle with the navy led by Magellan.
Both sides were determined to fight to the death and gave it their all.
Although Allan’s side had fewer numbers, they had high-end combat power such as Crocodile and Jinbe, which prevented them from falling into a disadvantage.
“Magellan, I’ll take care of you,” Crocodile said as soon as the battle began.
It was not for no reason. Magellan was the boss of this large prison.
Crocodile, who had been locked up on the sixth level for a long time, naturally felt very unhappy with Magellan.
Looking at the menacing Crocodile, Magellan said, “You came just in time. I will defeat you and put you back on the sixth level.”
“Chief, let us deal with that guy,” said a prison guard.“No, he’s not someone you can deal with,” Magellan said.
“The chief can just watch. At least we have to make him pay,” the guard said.
The guard and twenty soldiers rushed toward Crocodile with great momentum, obviously wanting to show off in front of Magellan.
But this move was too foolish. Magellan seemed to have already seen their fate and frowned.
Sure enough, Crocodile attacked the soldiers who rushed over.
“Scum, get out of my way. Desert Saber!” Crocodile’s right hand turned into sand, forming a sharp blade.
As he swung forward, the sand-formed blade slashed along the ground, cutting dozens of marines blocking his path in half, with blood and gore everywhere.
This scene made the soldiers of Impel Down, who relied on Magellan’s presence, turn pale.
Crocodile’s strength was terrifying.
For a time, no one dared to stop him.
“Crocodile, don’t be too arrogant,” Magellan said angrily when he saw his men frightened by Crocodile.
“Venomous Giant Fist!” A huge fist made of purple poison condensed and controlled by Magellan suddenly slammed forward from the sky.
“Sand Cannonball!” Under Crocodile’s control, a compressed sand cannonball flew towards the huge poisonous fist.
Boom!
The two collided, and the sand exploded like a cannonball, shattering the huge poisonous fist and unleashing a powerful energy.
After the conflict, neither side gained an advantage. This first round was considered a tie.
“Hydra!” Magellan extended his hand, summoning a purple dragon wreathed in poisonous gas. The dragon soared forward, its claws and fangs bared.
When the liquid poison carried by the dragon hit the ground, it sizzled and corroded the earth beneath it.
Magellan’s subordinates behind him were afraid of being affected and kept their distance, not daring to get too close.
Others were afraid of the toxic gas emanating from the purple dragon, but Crocodile was not. He sneered and said, “Magellan, you think you’re the only one with a dragon? I have one too.”
In the next second, a large amount of sand gushed out from Crocodile’s body and quickly condensed in midair above his head into a ten-meter-tall golden dragon, exuding an imposing aura.
Everyone present was stunned, staring at the two giant dragons facing each other in midair. This was already beyond human ability, and only those with Devil Fruit powers could possess such abilities.
“Go,” Crocodile commanded.
Under his control, the golden dragon formed from sand collided head-on with the purple dragon formed from poison gas, like two mountains devouring each other. The scene was astonishing, and the energy spread out, causing explosions.
This time, Magellan still didn’t gain the upper hand.
He had the power of the Superhuman Venom-Venom Fruit, which allowed him to release poison.
Crocodile, on the other hand, had the power of the Sand Sand Fruit, which allowed him to control sand.
The advantage of Natural Fruit ability users was that they could unleash power similar to that of nature based on the characteristics of their fruit ability.
Crocodile’s sand was such a tricky ability.
Therefore, defeating Crocodile was not something that could be done in a short time.
In fact, no one knew who would emerge victorious in the end.
“Come on, Magellan,” Crocodile taunted. He was not afraid of this poison man at all.
Magellan was provoked and started fighting him again.
On the other side, the Sea Knight Jinbe, who was also a member of the Seven Warlords, was not idle.
His Fishman Karate, both in power and speed, was no less than that of Devil Fruit ability users.
“Arabesque Tile True Punch!” Jinbe punched, and the invisible shock wave burst out from 360 degrees, sending more than ten soldiers who were close to him flying away, showcasing his amazing strength.
As another major force, Allan also joined the battle.
Although his reputation was not as great as Crocodile and Jinbe, his previous display of strength in the lower levels of the advancing city had already attracted the attention of the high-level officials pushing the city forward.
At this moment, three wardens locked onto Allan and quickly started to fight him.
These three warden chiefs all had the strength of a Marine Captains. Working together, they were not to be underestimated. Furthermore, all three of them were sword masters.
“Triple Slash!”
The three prison wardens used their deadly technique simultaneously, and its power was astonishing.
“Not bad, this is worth me taking action.”
Allan didn’t dare to underestimate them. He coldly laughed and immediately swung his sword horizontally.
The deep blue slashing wave and the cross-shaped slashing wave collided in midair, bursting out two incredibly bright energies.
After the impact, the three prison wardens looked at Allan with a solemn expression.
“To be able to withstand our joint attack, you probably have the strength of a great swordsman.”
Allan smiled and said, “Great swordsman, that’s quite a compliment.”
“As fellow swordsmen, we must defeat you.”
“Unfortunately, you are not my match.”
Allan’s face turned cold, and he emitted a demonic killing intent.
“For the next move, if the three of you can withstand it, then I will acknowledge your qualifications to fight me.”
The three prison wardens looked at each other and said simultaneously, “Okay, bring it on.”
