Infinite Hell.

As if completing a daily task, Storm returned to the sixth floor to perform his usual "check-in".

However, what he hit was not some "identity card", but prisoners held in the Infinite Hell.

Accompanied personally by Magellan, the warden of Impel Down.

As he had done every day for the past few days, Storm executed a prisoner cleanly and efficiently.

A six-star Death Cup popped up again in the void.

Storm silently put away the Blood Diamond Trophy.

He has been in Impel Down for over a week, and every day he goes to the Infinite Hell Hunting Trophy and receives a six-star Blood Diamond Trophy.

In just over a week, Storm won a total of eight Blood Diamond Trophys.

This speed is definitely not fast.

However, considering the quality of the Grand Prix Cup and the difficulty of hunting for it.

Storm is perfectly accepting of the current situation.

The only thing he couldn't quite accept was...

The number of prisoners in the Infinite Hell is decreasing.

The six-star grand prize trophy can only be provided by six-star powerhouses.

Such a powerful individual is rare even across the entire ocean.

When Storm left Impel Down for the first time, he nearly wiped out all the criminals in Infinite Hell, but those criminals were mostly five-star level or lower.

However, precisely because of this, the prisoners who survived in the Infinite Hell are basically all at the six-star level.

It even includes veteran powerhouses like the Lone Red and the Devil's Heir.

But overall...

The number of prisoners in Infinite Hell is still too small.

More than a week has passed.

Storm killed eight more prisoners.

The number of prisoners who survived in the Infinite Hell is less than ten.

"Alright, you've used up your kill quota for today!"

Magellan looked at the lifeless bodies of the criminals in the cell ahead and urged Storm beside him.

"You can leave now!"

"Magellan, look how well we've gotten to know each other..."

Storm urged.

"Let me just wipe out the Infinite Hell!"

"Absolutely not!"

Magellan denied it without hesitation.

Allowing Storm to execute prisoners was already somewhat beyond the bounds of propriety...

If Storm were to completely wipe out the Infinite Hell, that wouldn't be called "transgressing the rules," that would be called "putting the rules on the ground and trampling them!"

"Execute a few prisoners" and "Slaughter the entire prison floor".

Even if there isn't much difference in the specific numbers.

But the feeling it evokes is completely different!

Storm shook his head and stopped worrying about it.

Anyway, he only needs to stay in the Infinite Hell for a few more days, and he will kill all these prisoners.

A steady, gradual flow is always better than nothing.

Magellan was about to urge Storm to leave Infinite Hell with him.

The Den Den Mushi in his arms suddenly rang.

Domino's voice came through the receiver.

"Warrior, another Shichibukai has arrived at Impel Down!"

"Another Shichibukai?"

Magellan glanced at Storm beside him, his brows furrowing deeply.

Impel Down was peaceful this week, and Whitebeard Jr. didn't even come over.

Surely the Fleet Admiral wouldn't send another Shichibukai to "support" them?

"Who?"

"Hawkeye Mihawk!"

Domino said calmly.

"Admiral Kizaru has arrived at the first level of the sea."

"However... the Deputy Commissioner is already engaged in combat with Hawkeye Mihawk!"

"Shiryu!"

Magellan's expression changed slightly. He looked at Storm and urged him urgently.

"Storm, let's go up together!"

"All right……"

……

Let's move the time forward a little.

Hawkeye Mihawk's lone boat approaches the location of the deep-sea prison.

The world-renowned Black Blade Yoru, one of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords, is being held in the hands of Hawkeye Mihawk.

Hawkeye Mihawk gripped the Black Blade Night as if it were a paddle, the heavy, black blade slicing across the sea, propelling the coffin-like boat forward.

After all, this is the Calm Belt, not the Grand Line.

On the Grand Line, Hawkeye Mihawk can also use the surrounding winds to let his small boat drift and sail.

That is to say, you row a boat without oars, relying entirely on the waves!

But this is a doldrums, there isn't even a breeze.

Hawkeye Mihawk's small boat was completely out of power.

To sail, one can only rely on the simplest and most primitive method—the oar!

When we were about to arrive at Impel Down.

Hawkeye Mihawk then drew his Black Blade Night from the seawater. With a slight flick of his right hand, the scattered water droplets clinging to the blade of Black Blade Night were immediately shaken off.

"Is this Impel Down?"

"Will the Golden Lion II... be here?"

Hawkeye Mihawk lightly stepped on his small boat, using the reaction force to leap high into the air like a falcon, landing with perfect precision on the first level of the sea above Impel Down.

The prison staff responsible for daily guard duty and patrols immediately spotted this "uninvited guest".

The characteristics of the Black Blade Night are too obvious.

Prison staff immediately recognized the true identity of this "world's greatest swordsman".

One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the world's greatest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk!

But no matter what.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea are still pirates.

Without receiving orders from the World Government or the Navy Headquarters.

A member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea suddenly appeared in Impel Down.

The jailers of Impel Down could only regard Hawkeye Mihawk as an "intruder"!

The alarm sounded immediately.

Kizaru's figure appeared first on the first layer of the sea.

He originally thought it was Whitebeard Jr. who had arrived, but unexpectedly, it was another Shichibukai who came.

"Hawkeye Mihawk? Hmm~"

Kizaru stroked his chin, looking at Hawkeye Mihawk with a strange expression.

"I never expected that a man like you would actually come to Impel Down on your own initiative."

"Are you tired of the lonely life at the top, so you want to turn yourself in to Impel Down, Navy Hunter?"

Kizaru did not receive any orders from headquarters or the government.

This means that Hawkeye Mihawk came to Impel Down on his own initiative!

Although Kizaru did not know what Hawkeye Mihawk's purpose was.

However, a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea suddenly appeared in the world's largest prison without prior notice.

This situation looks really strange...

If Hawkeye Mihawk can't give a suitable reason, Kizaru wouldn't mind letting him "stay" in Impel Down for a while.

"Marine Admiral Kizaru?"

Hawkeye Mihawk's brow furrowed slightly as he stared at Kizaru with his hawk-like yellow eyes.

"What are you doing here? Where is King Shiki II?"

"The Golden Lion II?"

Kizaru looked at Hawkeye Mihawk with curiosity.

"You came here because of this pirate?"

"certainly."

Hawkeye Mihawk answered directly.

"Although I don't know the situation, that person has [Sakura Ten] and [Wood Dry], and I'm very interested in him."

"Hmm~ What a terrifyingly powerful swordsman~"

Kizaru chuckled, but still believed Hawkeye Mihawk's explanation.

"Although I completely cannot understand the way you swordsmen think, you'll remain here until I ascertain your true purpose..."

Upon hearing this, Hawkeye Mihawk's expression remained unchanged; he simply reached for the Supreme Grade Sword [Black Blade Night] on his back.

"I've heard that Admiral Kizaru of the Marine Headquarters possesses a sword named after a mythical weapon."

Hawkeye Mihawk slowly drew his Black Blade Night, the dark tip pointing directly at Kizaru.

"Where is your 'Kusanagi Sword'?"

Kizaru narrowed his eyes, clearly sensing the astonishing aura emanating from Hawkeye Mihawk.

"He really is the 'World's Greatest Swordsman'~ How terrifying~"

Kizaru is planning to create a "Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi".

Just then.

A startling roar came from the side.

"Hawkeye Mihawk!"

The next instant.

A dark figure rushed towards Hawkeye Mihawk, moving with lightning speed. In his hand, he held the famous sword "Thunderstorm," its blood-red, eerie blade tracing a sharp arc in mid-air.

Hawkeye Mihawk was fully prepared. His Observation Haki clearly sensed the intrusion of an unfamiliar aura. Without hesitation, he raised his Black Blade Night and held it in front of him.

clang--

The blades of [Black Blade Night] and [Thunderstorm] clashed, instantly producing a crisp and loud metallic clang, with sparks flying everywhere.

"This is... the famous sword 'Thunderstorm'?"

Hawkeye Mihawk's eyes first fell on the sword, and then on the person.

"Who are you?"

"After I defeat you..."

Shiryu of the Rain gripped the hilt of the sword "Thunderstorm" tightly, and jet-black Armament Haki surged forth, instantly transforming the famous sword into a "black blade."

"You'll naturally find out my name!"

Since Storm arrived in Impel Down.

Shiryu couldn't eat or sleep well, and even his thoughts of killing people had faded considerably.

Back when Storm was in Impel Down.

Shiliu was taught a lesson by Storm.

After the other party left Impel Down.

Shiliu continued to train intensely in prison, hoping to find an opportunity to take revenge in the future.

But a week ago.

Storm's simple "abdomen punch" shattered Shiryu's dream of revenge.

Before he could even see Storm's movement, he was knocked down by a single punch.

The gap in strength between them is simply too great...

Even Shiryu was somewhat desperate.

Over the past week.

Shiryu constantly wavered between the two extreme emotions of "wanting revenge" and "having no hope of revenge".

I feel like a pressure cooker that's about to explode!

Now Hawkeye Mihawk suddenly appears.

Shiryu felt he had finally found a chance to vent!

"interesting!"

Hawkeye Mihawk's lips curled slightly as he sensed the astonishing sword intent emanating from Shiryu of the Rain.

This is a rare master swordsman in the vast ocean.

The most crucial point is...

Hawkeye Mihawk had never fought this great swordsman before!

This is so exciting!

Hawkeye Mihawk unleashed his power, forcing Shiryu of the Rain back two body lengths.

He held the Black Blade Night in both hands, the heavy, black two-handed cross sword spinning in mid-air, tracing several unpredictable trajectories, before suddenly pointing at Shiryu of the Rain from another tricky angle.

Shiryu of the Rain's pupils contracted slightly, and a crimson light shone deep within his eyes, clearly indicating that he had activated his Observation Haki and was trying his best to sense the trajectory of Hawkeye Mihawk's sword swing.

at the same time.

Shiryu of the Rain also began to wield his Thunderstorm sword, attempting to parry the attack of Night Blade.

But this time...

The blades of [Black Blade Night] and [Thunderstorm] only briefly touched before the blades withdrew.

The Supreme Grade Sword drew a perfect arc in mid-air, its attack position suddenly changing from above to below. The black blade gently slashed upwards, as if to disembowel Shiryu of the Rain.

Shiryu of the Rain dared not be careless in the slightest, and immediately took a step back to avoid the attack of [Black Blade Night].

But it was at this step that Shiryu of the Rain's entire aura was immediately suppressed by Hawkeye Mihawk.

Hawkeye Mihawk swung his Black Blade Night upwards, then took a step forward, and the Black Blade Night, at its highest point, suddenly changed angle and slashed downwards.

Shiryu of the Rain wielded [Thunderstorm], attempting to parry the blade of [Black Blade Night].

But the powerful Black Blade Night slashed heavily onto the blade of Thunderstorm, causing the latter's blade to tremble violently and be knocked away on the spot.

Shiliu had no choice but to retreat further.

[Black Blade Night] deflected [Thunderstorm]'s blade and continued its downward slash.

Hawkeye Mihawk pressed his advantage, flipping himself in mid-air, the powerful rotation causing [Black Blade Night] to swing in a perfect arc once more.

The invisible sword energy emanating from it rotated along the blade of the [Black Blade Night], like a strange and terrifying black full moon rising from the sea.

At this critical moment, Shiryu once again swung [Thunderstorm] in an attempt to block.

But this time...

Hawkeye Mihawk's immense power sent Shiryu flying with a single slash.

The deputy director flew out of the first level of Impel Down like a shooting star and crashed into the vast ocean.

It only took three rounds.

Shiryu of the Rain was defeated by Hawkeye Mihawk's swordsmanship.

The deputy director's body crashed into the calm sea, creating a huge wave.

The drifting bubbles are like his crumbling ambitions...

"Truly worthy of being the world's greatest swordsman~"

Kizaru showed his approval and clapped his hands gently.

"Even Shiryu, who is as strong as a monster, is no match for you."

Hearing Kizaru's "praise".
