Pirates: Devour All Evil

"Tap tap... tap tap..."

In this deserted and infinite hell, even the sound of breathing can be heard.

In the Infinite Hell, almost all the pirates were eliminated by Karsas.

Apart from……

Except for that outlier——"Devil's Descendant" Douglas Barrett.

"Breathe... breathe... breathe... breathe..."

Barrett was leaning against the wall, his body entangled in iron chains as thick as a python. The slightest movement would cause the sound of the chains rattling.

"Karsas, I've been hungry for three days. What? Why don't you do anything?"

In the past few weeks, the prisoners of Infinite Hell could clearly feel that there was less and less movement in the cells.

In the end, Barrett could only feel the noises he made, and no noises from anyone else.

He knew very well that the sixth level of Impel Down - Infinite Purgatory, was the end point for these top prisoners, and there was no other place for them to live.

If they were sent down to the rest of the floors, it would undoubtedly be a disaster, not only for the weak prisoners but also for the brainless guards.

So, unsurprisingly, those disappeared voices disappeared forever and will never come back.

Three days ago, Barrett could no longer feel any other sounds from the Infinite Purgatory, but Karsus was still hesitant to take action.

Is it only today that Karsus plans to take action?

Then he must have gained some level of strength that made him confident, otherwise Karsus would not dare to look at him with disdain.

“Yo yo yo~ Can’t you wait any longer? Douglas Barrett, the Devil’s Heir.”

Karsus now likes Kizaru's tone more and more. After all, he is powerful and likes to taunt, which is simply too cool.

"Douglas Barrett, at the age of only thirteen, boarded the ship of the Pirate King Goldo Roger and was defeated by Goldo Roger."

"so what?"

Barrett did not want to hide his embarrassment at being defeated by Pirate King Roger. On the contrary, he was very calm. After all, Roger had defeated countless people, and it was not shameful to lose to him.

Karsas continued to narrate Barrett's experience slowly: "He later fought a tie with Spark Jabba, the 'Left Hand of the Pirate King', and continued to challenge the crew of Roger's Pirates. He then settled down on the Or Jackson, which was equivalent to joining Roger's Pirates."

Barrett felt goosebumps when he heard these stories.

After all, Roger's pirate group follows the elite route, and there should be no undercover agents infiltrating. How did Karsus get this information?

It's really terrifying when you think about it, so Barrett, with his muscular head, simply doesn't bother to think about it.

"But there is a more interesting incident, you should know it~"

Karsas seemed to remember something interesting and looked at Barrett in the cell.

"Some time after Roger's death, you fought Crocodile to a draw. Do you remember this incident?"

Barrett seemed to remember that depressed midnight when he was recalling every detail with Pirate King Roger. That was when he was most vulnerable.

Crocodile, the "Sand Crocodile", took advantage of the situation and was planning to become famous by using the name of Douglas Barrett, the "Devil's Heir".

But in the end, it was discovered that even Barrett, who had no intention of fighting, could still defeat Crocodile, so Crocodile retreated wisely, and the competition came to an end.

After all, at that time, Barrett was already an opponent of the same level as "Pluto" Rayleigh, not to mention the newly debuted Crocodile Crocodile?

It was definitely a fight like an adult beating a child, with no suspense at all.

"That's just that I don't want to fight with her. After all, I know her situation."

Perhaps Barrett knew Crocodile's true identity as a woman and didn't want to fight her, or maybe he was just in a bad mood and didn't want to fight. It is unknown.

"Barrett, are you ready? Our battle has officially begun!"

"Bang!"

As he spoke, Karsas opened the cell door, and with a heavy thud, the door was slammed shut.

"Come on! Let's see what you can do to kill me!"

Douglas Barrett's veins bulged all over his body, and his skin glowed bright red like a cooked shrimp.

"Drink!"

With a loud and powerful roar, the seastone chains that bound Barrett like a dumpling actually cracked inch by inch under his brute force, making a creaking sound under the heavy load, as if they would collapse in the next second.

But Karsus didn't want to continue fighting with Barrett and planned to end it quickly.

"Ghost Fruit: Negative Ghost"

“Hula hula hula…”

The silly and cute pale white ghost shouted and headed towards Barrett.

Seeing that the Negative Ghost was about to touch Barrett's skin, Karsus almost cheered out loud.

"Zizi..."

But unfortunately, Barrett turned over at the right time, allowing the negative ghost to touch the seastone chain. At that moment, the negative ghost dissipated between heaven and earth like a wisp of smoke, leaving no trace of its existence.

"You actually used the seastone chains to forcibly dissolve my negative ghost. You really are worthy of being Barrett!"

Seeing that his ability was temporarily useless, Karsus decided to have a real fight with Barrett.

After all, he is a real general-level strongman, how could he be so ungraceful.

"Momo Fruit: Ten Times the Power"

Karsus slowly walked towards Barrett, then clasped his fingers together, forming them into a hammer, and smashed it towards Barrett's chest.

"Boom!"

As smoke and dust spread, Karsus looked at the deep hole he had smashed into the ground.

Barrett had long since disappeared.

"What? This will make him run away?"

Karsus looked around angrily, trying to find Barrett's hiding place.

Most likely, Barrett used the ability of the "Fusion Fruit" to forcibly merge with the surrounding walls or floor so that he would not be discovered.

But will it really not be discovered?

I am a strong man with domineering power!

『Observation Haki』

Karsus closed his eyes, ready to sense every movement around him. If Karsus was given time, he could even sense how many bedbugs were nearby.

Just as Karsus was concentrating his mind and preparing to perceive carefully, something strange happened.

A pair of round tiger eyes appeared from under the pit just now, and it was Barrett.

The next moment, Barrett covered his hands with armed color domineering, opened his arms, and pounced towards Karsas like a hungry tiger.

Feeling a gust of evil wind blowing in his face, Karsas suddenly opened his eyes, and what he saw was Barrett's hideous muscular old face.

"Now that things have come to a point, I can only use that one trick."
