Pirate Death Arrives

Beneath the peace is greater chaos.

Sengoku stood under the ruins of the Navy Headquarters.

There were piles of rubble around him, and the air was filled with dust and the lingering smell of blood. He couldn't tell what he was feeling.

Compared to the joy of victory, everything in front of him made him more confused.

Is this war right or wrong?

Thinking about it now, the price paid to bring down a Yonko Marine was too high.

But... this is also an opportunity.

Previously, the New World in the second half of the Grand Line had always been in a state of confrontation between the four emperors. They checked and balanced each other, and even the navy could not intervene.

Now that Whitebeard has fallen, this is undoubtedly a breakthrough.

The Navy might be able to do something with this.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period!"

"Marshal of the Warring States Period!!"

A sudden sound interrupted Sengoku's thoughts.

"What's up?"

He turned his head and saw a marine running over panting, thinking that the situation was somewhat urgent.

"The situation in Impel Down City has been confirmed!"

As soon as these words came out, Zeng Guo took a deep breath and slowly sat down against a piece of gravel.

"Tell me, what happened there?"

He had heard before that Magellan had rebelled and used his fruit power to turn Impel Down into a poisonous prison. He couldn't believe it was true.

But because the war on top was still at its peak at that time, he couldn't find anyone to confirm, so he could only suppress the anger and confusion in his heart.

Now is the time to reveal the truth about this matter.

The navy officer who came to report swallowed, his brows full of panic and fear.

After a while, he stammered.

"Push, the entire area of ​​several thousand meters around the city is filled with terrifying poisonous gas, and there are countless giant Neptune-like corpses floating on the sea."

"The navy who spent some time in Impel Down said... that... those poisonous gases... could only be released by Warden Magellan, so... it was obviously him who did it!"

This statement undoubtedly confirmed Magellan's rebellion.

Although Zeng Guo's expression did not change at all, his heart was full of mixed emotions.

"Have you found out about the situation inside Impel Down City?"

The navy who came to report shook his head.

"The density of the poisonous gas there is really terrifying, and it is extremely corrosive. Even chemical protective suits cannot withstand it. If you want to get in, you have to wait for the poisonous gas to slowly dissipate."

"As of now, it won't be possible to enter for half a month to a month. If you force your way in, there will only be a dead end!"

There is no doubt that Magellan killed him when he left.

There was no way for the people inside to survive.

Now, even the Warring States Period couldn't hold it any longer.

There is no way, this is too cruel.

What's more, there are not only pirates inside, but also jailer beasts that the navy spent decades and decades cultivating. Those low-level jailers are also alive.

As a result, everyone died because of Magellan!

call--

Sengoku took another deep breath and rubbed his temples.

"Have you found any traces of Magellan?"

"Because the poisonous gas covered such a wide area, no one knew where he went."

"Okay, tell Kizaru about this and let him investigate!"

Magellan's poisonous gas is, to put it bluntly, still the product of the Devil Fruit.

Armed Haki that is powerful enough to a certain extent can resist its special effects.

As a general, he can basically ignore Magellan's poisonous gas.

Of course, it's just ordinary poison gas.

If he were to use the awakening ability of the 'Poisonous Giant Soldier', no matter how powerful his weaponry was, he wouldn't be able to last long.

And this is the capital that makes Magellan's strength comparable to that of a general - fruit awakening!

Now, Luo Di has taught him Armed Color Haki, which is even more powerful than a tiger.

However, Luo Di now has some regrets.

Because Magellan is an unstable factor, no one knows when he will break free of the shackles and defect to the navy again.

…

Above the endless sea.

A warship is moving at an extremely fast speed.

Magellan stood at the bow of the ship, his eyes sometimes confused and sometimes painful.

For some reason, he suddenly picked up the anchor on the deck and threw it into the sea.

puff--

As the waves splashed, the warship's speed decreased rapidly and finally stopped.

"What did I do before?"

He bent down and covered his head in pain.

Something seemed to be broken in my mind.

In an instant, countless memories poured into his brain like a torrent.

At this moment, he seemed to see the tragic situation of Impel Down City.

The air was filled with poisonous gas, and the jailers who pushed into the city died in the struggle.

The sounds of pain and wailing are endless.

And all this was done by him!

What made Magellan feel even more painful was that... he knew what he had done, but he didn't know why he did it.

That's it, no reason, no reason.

He always felt that he had forgotten something, which was the key, but he couldn't remember it at all, as if something had pulled away the memory.

In fact, this is the 'protection mechanism' of Luo Di's ability.

When the Death Fruit ability is awakened, Luo Di has the ability to forcibly change the souls of others.

This change will not cause a qualitative change, and the character's personality, habits and some potential behaviors cannot be changed.

And when he suffers some kind of stimulus that is powerful enough to shake his soul, Luo Di's ability will be forcibly released, and at the same time, the memory related to Luo Di will also be deleted. This is the so-called 'protection mechanism'.

A mechanism to protect Luo Di, the man behind the scenes.

Magellan was in this state at this time.

The tragic situation in Impel Down City was the source of pain, constantly stimulating his nerves and provoking his soul.

Because of this, he recovered and became his original self, Magellan, the warden of Impel Down.

But he didn't know what happened to him!

"Is someone manipulating my behavior?"

Involuntarily, an inexplicable conjecture popped into his mind.

And only this conjecture can rationalize his previous behavior.

"Damn, who is it?"

He slapped his forehead violently several times to see if this 'physical method' could recall anything.

However, to his disappointment, he still remembered nothing.

However, one thing he was sure of was that he had not left Impel Down City in the month before this incident...?

‘…You left! ’

However, another different voice sounded in my heart.

"There is a problem, something happened during this time period!"

The strong sense of conflict jolted Magellan awake.

He had to investigate what happened in Impel Down City in the previous month, maybe there would be some clues.

No matter what, he must find out the person behind the scenes.

This kind of person is a huge threat to the navy and the world government!
