If Sengoku doesn't pull back his net soon, I'll become the Pirate King!

Chapter 318 The Death Bell Tolls, Moo Moo Makes a Dazzling Appearance

Watching the two figures walk towards Morgans' cell.

The entire sixth floor suddenly erupted in chaos.

"Hey, who is this guy?!"

"Are they enemies or allies? Never mind, kid, hurry up and get me out of here!!"

"Wait! That thing behind him—isn't that the Minotaur, the jailer beast!?"

Suddenly, as Bazel walked slowly with his hands in his pockets, a hand reached out from the cell next to him and grabbed him.

"Can't you hear me?!"

"Damn it, open the cell and let me out right now, or I'll kill your whole family—!!"

As Bazell turned his gaze, an even more imposing dark figure appeared before him.

moo~

"When the bells of death toll—"

Bang—Crack!

The sound of bones breaking and screams rang out almost simultaneously.

Bazel pointed to the ground, and the Serpent Spirit immediately activated the Earth Dragon.

The floor of the corresponding cell suddenly began to writhe and deform, and the originally upright iron bars were "entered into the belly" by an invisible mouth.

"Moo will come in place of death."

The Minotaur bent down and stepped into the cell through the opening.

As the continuous mooing sounds rang out.

The screams turned into gasps of surprise, then back into screams, and finally all of them turned into a chilling silence.

When the Minotaur walked out of that cell and stood behind Bazel again.

Its grayish-white fur was already stained red with blood.

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Standing at the edge of the cell, Morgans pointed at the Minotaur behind Bazel and asked curiously, "It's a jailer beast, right? How come it listens to you?"

The earth dragon swallowed the iron bars in front of Morgans once again.

"I met Moo Moo by chance, and now it has become my pet, no, my companion."

The Minotaur of Death.

The element symbolized by the jailer beast that Bazel knocked out and took away was death, a development that Bazel had never expected.

Although in some myths, the Minotaur is the embodiment of death and destruction.

But this is the world of pirates, and the corresponding elemental power is dead—

This differs from Barzel's understanding of death.

It's not as simple as turning a living thing into a dead one.

The drummer of death—this was the definition that Bazel came up with after much thought.

If we were to put it into actual combat—

Ding ding ding ding—!

A rapid metallic clanging sound rang out, and the Minotaur, having received the order, picked up a specially made brick and metal plate from his waist and began to strike them forcefully.

Bazel pointed his fingers into a sword shape, and the flowing Armament Haki formed an invisible blade that slashed down.

Morgans, now free, strode out of his cell.

"Hehehehe"~~

"Selling you that nautical chart back then was the best deal ever!"

"Hey, Bazel, do you still want Paradise or the sea charts of the Four Seas? I can give you them all!"

"As long as you're willing to be my friend—yes, the kind of friend you'd come to my rescue even if I were arrested!"

"We've been friends for a long time, haven't we?"

Bazel's counter-question made Morgans burst into laughter.

"That's right, that's right, we've been friends for a long time! I'll do everything in my power to help my best friend!"

"But, Bazel, why is that bull ringing the bell?"

Following the direction Morgans was pointing, Bazel began to explain the function of the mooing behavior.

"That's the power of Moo Moo, the power that strengthens the Legion of Death."

Awaken, angel!

A wisp of pale gray poisonous mist flowed from Bazel's mouth and drifted into the cell that Moo had rushed into earlier in an inexplicable way.

A chilling creaking sound and a low growl rang out.

At that moment, the entire sixth floor fell silent.

All attention was focused on the cell where a strange change had occurred.

The first bloodied and mangled angel walked out of the cell.

Unlike the previous angels, these death angels who heard the bells were not the truly emaciated figures they had been before.

Although the skin was rotting, the bulging muscles all over the body were quite striking.

It's like—

A terrifying licker, its head on all fours.

roar--!!!

Several angels resembling lickers rushed out of the cell, their long, narrow tongues hanging outside their gums, dripping highly corrosive saliva.

A hissing sound accompanied the dissipation of wisps of smoke.

Morgans flapped his wings, causing the laughing man to take a half-step back.

"Bazel, aren't your angels a little... disgusting?"

Even Bazel was quite surprised by the changes that had occurred to the angels.

When he signed the contract with the Minotaur, he used his dream-entering ability to see all of the Minotaur's past.

He is definitely a Devil Fruit user, no doubt about it.

However, he is not a complete ability user.

He died on the day his ability failed to awaken, his soul replaced by the will of the Devil Fruit, becoming a demon who only knew how to trample on life.

But it is precisely because of this that Barzel was able to sign a contract with the other party in a logical way, making the other party the second laborer after Nora.

And the Minotaur—no, it should now be called the Amo.

As for its ability, it has only one—

That is to strengthen or temporarily awaken the poison of Naraku.

This can be seen from the angels who were resurrected by the poison of Naraku.

Although the resurrected angels could be active on the battlefield due to their immortality, their fragile bodies and weak strength made Bazel feel disgusted more than once.

Now it's completely different; Bazel doesn't know just how powerful those enhanced angels are.

But his bulging, knotted muscles don't lie.

"Hey, human, let me out too! I'm really strong, I can fight for you!"

Bazel looked at the cell that had suddenly joined the chat group.

Before the giant could speak further, Morgans whispered, "San Juan Wolf, an idiot. I suggest you don't grant his request; that guy has some personality flaws."

"A very strong vitality."

As Bazel walked to the cell, his breath turned a deep purple.

"I've heard of him."

San Juan Wolf, a former member of the Blackbeard Pirates, was born a giant in the West Blue.

The Paramecia-type Inflation Fruit user, the reason for his imprisonment —

It seems that because of the extreme brutality of his crimes, the World Government completely erased everything related to him.

"I'll let you out, but not this way~"

Upon hearing that there was a chance of escape, San Juan Wolf's eyes lit up.

"It's okay, it's okay~~"

"I'll help you kill your enemies, please rescue me quickly!"

"Of course, but the process might be a bit painful—"

Reflected in the shadows on the walls of the infinite hell, the man's body suddenly grew and deformed.

As the eight dancers danced wildly, the purple poisonous mist spread throughout the entire sixth floor.

While there might be innocent people in the first five levels of Impel Down, there is absolutely no possibility in the sixth level.

The people here are either lunatics blinded by immense power or nonsensical eccentrics like San Juan Wolf.

At least according to Bazel's Observation Haki, every aura in this layer was tainted with sin and madness.

"Poisonous Stream Burst".

"You bastard!! What are you doing, you bastard!?"

"Stop it right now, or I'll kill you the first thing I do when I get out of here!!!"

"Stop! Stop—cough cough cough vomit!"

The Yamata no Orochi looked at the Den Den Mushi moving towards it from the end, its eyes filled with cruelty and murderous intent.

"This is the first gift, Impel. From today onwards, you will be nothing more than an empty shell!"

Meanwhile, at Lv.4 Scorching Hell.

[Director's Room]

"It did happen! My intuition was right!"

Blu-ray Blu-ray Blu-ray~~

Click!

"Magellan, where are you?!"

Pulu pulu————

"Chief, excuse me, I'm in the restroom right now—oh no! My stomach hurts so much!"

"Stop pulling! Level 6 has been compromised!"

-

Purson, holding a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric telephone), walked towards the outside world with a serious expression.

"The enemy is the great pirate Bazel, that lawless man is building his own army on the sixth floor!!"

"Proceed to the sixth floor as quickly as possible to provide support. This time, we must end the great pirate Bazel's journey here!"

"What?!"

The Den Den Mushi looked shocked.

"How is this possible? There are so many surveillance Den Den Mushi on our roads, how could he possibly escape detection?!"

"Now is not the time to focus on the enemy's infiltration methods!"

Pulson barked, "Immediately, now, at once, provide support to Lv.6! Even if you're wearing diapers, you'd better get to the target area within five minutes!"

"Yes, Chief!"

The Den Den Mushi was casually tossed back onto the table. Pullson, who had walked to the door of the room, opened the bookcase next to the coat rack and pressed the button with the red skull printed on it.

[Attention everyone! 】

The piercing alarm sounded throughout the Impel Prison.

[All jailer beasts, soldiers, and guards, immediately proceed to Lv.6 Infinite Hell!]

This is not a drill! This is not a drill!!!

[The great pirate Bazel has invaded Level 6 Infinite Hell! All personnel proceed to the target area to provide support. We must ensure the enemy is completely contained within Impel Down!]

【Repeat----】

【Lv.1 Crimson Lotus Hell】

The reporters, who had finally escaped the swarm of poisonous spiders, were stunned. The small team of only four looked at each other.

She finally burst into tears of joy.

"It's here! The support the president mentioned has finally arrived!"

"We're saved! Waaaaah, we survived!!"

Meanwhile, a noisy commotion erupted from the other floors.

"Well done!!"

"Hey, do you guys even know who Bazel is? I'd never even heard of him before I got locked up here!"

"Bazaar? That guy's a serial killer! I'm a survivor from Jaya Island, you guys don't know that—"

'

'

Various discussions and commotions echoed throughout the prison.

Shortly thereafter, both the Navy Headquarters and the World Government received a distress call from Impel Down.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford Island

boom--!

"What did you say?!"

Kong stood up in disbelief, his eyes wide with shock.

"The notorious pirate Bazel has invaded Impel Down!?"

-

An urgent urging came through the Den Den Mushi: "That's right, Marshal Kong, Director Pulson has already gone to the sixth level of Infinite Hell to provide support!"

"Please send reinforcements as soon as possible; we cannot hold out for long!!"

Snap—

The Den Den Mushi immediately hung up.

Sora stared blankly at the Den Den Mushi.

"How is this possible? Why is that kid—"

Sengoku, who was sitting in the room, could no longer contain his anger. He took out a Den Den Mushi and dialed a familiar number from his memory.

Snap—

"Why did you do this! Answer me!!"

[Lv.6, Infinite Hell]

Bazel, now back in human form, glanced at Morgans, then took a few steps back to the very back of the angelic forces.

"You ask me why—"

"My friend was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Celestial Dragons just for reporting some tabloid news."

"My dear uncle, how dare you ask me why?"

After a few moments of silence, the Den Den Mushi sighed deeply: "You know, Bazel, we had no choice."

Bazel chuckled lightly: "So whether it's this matter or the last one, I don't blame you."

"Because I know you can't make a choice, and I know that even if I contact you, this is the only thing you'll say to me."

"My dear uncle————"

"It was you who insisted on carrying out this plan in the first place."

"That summer, you used your emotions to send me away. Now, I have found the true justice I want."

"I will uphold this justice."

The Den Den Mushi stared at Bazel: "Calm down, Bazel! Everything is still negotiable!"

"Negotiation? Room for maneuver?"

Looking at the Director's face that appeared at the Lv.6 entrance, Bazel's voice carried a hint of sarcasm.

"This is the uncle you chose, not me."

"I don't blame you for choosing to obey the world's orders and abandoning me, so don't blame me for overturning the table that the Celestial Dragons have set."

Do you think you can still use the emotional appeal you're holding onto?

Even if you reveal my identity now, how many people on the high seas do you think will believe me?

"A pirate who has killed a Celestial Dragon, stormed the Holy Land Mary Geoise, and overturned Impel Down, is he really a Navy spy?"

Oh----

A low, disdainful laugh.

"Since the navy has no other choice, then there's no need to choose."

"I'm taking Impel Down! Don't even think about you, Uncle, pleading for me. Even if the Five Elders knelt before me begging, you couldn't save this place!"

"I will usher in a new world, and the era of freedom without the Celestial Dragons will surely come!"
