Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 18 An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! (Please continue reading!)

Five-star Platinum Trophy!

Storm looked at the magnificent Grand Prix in the void and his eyes lit up with excitement.

As expected of the most powerful prison guard in Impel Down.

"I approve of the quality of the Jailer Beast's trophy!"

Storm put away the Platinum Trophy and controlled the clay giants to move away from the unconscious Minotaur.

A Jailer Beast; defeating it will reward you with a five-star grand prize trophy.

Based on Storm's previous experience fighting the Blue Water Monkeys.

MinoZebra can at least continue to offer a four-star gold trophy!

Just beat them up again!

Storm reiterated that his actions were absolutely not motivated by personal revenge.

Everything is for the sake of the even more prestigious Grand Prize Cup!

Not long after.

The mino zebra slowly woke up.

The biggest advantage of Zoan-type Devil Fruits is their durability.

Jailer Beast was originally a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user who failed to awaken his Devil Fruit powers.

Although they have lost their intelligence as humans.

However, it also gained greater endurance and resilience.

Sit-ups are a piece of cake.

Mino the zebra shook its still somewhat dazed mind.

It looked up and around, but did not see the group of white giants that it had been unable to kill no matter how hard it tried.

All that remained was the same unfamiliar human that it had easily knocked away earlier.

Mere humans!

Mino the zebra snorted and regained its confidence.

It picked up the ball-shaped spiked club that had fallen to the ground, scraped its hooves a few times on the ground, and charged at Storm again.

After resting for a full half hour, Storm had by then recovered to his peak condition.

Having learned from the previous battle.

Storm no longer uses [Overpower] recklessly.

He mainly relies on the "Six Powers" to deal with Mino Zebra, and only uses the power of "Haki" when necessary.

With the help of the tireless jailer beast, Mino Zebra.

Storm continuously honed his Armament Haki and Observation Haki.

The roar of battle echoed incessantly.

Inside the director's office, also in the fourth level of scorching hell.

Magellan sat on the toilet, a subtle pleasure suddenly welling up on his face, which had turned purplish-red from holding it in.

He had just felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and was looking forward to a thorough detox.

But suddenly a deafening explosion rang out nearby.

boom!

Magellan felt a sudden tightness in his anus, and the urge to defecate vanished instantly.

Who is it? Doesn't the person in question have any sense of public morality?

Why make such a racket in broad daylight? Can't they just sit in jail in peace?

Can't a person just have a normal bout of diarrhea?

Enraged, Magellan pulled up his pants and ran out of the washroom in a few quick strides.

"Who is it!"

Magellan rushed into the monitoring room of the scorching hell, wanting to find the culprit that was interfering with his detoxification process.

"Who exactly is causing trouble in prison?!"

If the rioters were prisoners pushed into the city.

Magellan vowed he would shove that guy into the ass of the "Poison Giant"!

The prison guards in the monitoring room had not yet noticed the warden's arrival; they were all watching the surveillance footage.

"Wow, that's amazing! The warden is incredible!"

"Neither the deputy warden nor the prison guard beasts are a match for him!"

"The Giant Legion! The invincible Giant Legion has appeared once again!"

Although they were watching the surveillance footage, the prison guards suddenly erupted in enthusiastic cheers, as if they were watching an exciting action movie.

Chief jailer? Jailer beast?

Magellan's eyes widened; he had roughly figured out the suspect's identity!

But what about the "giant legion" that the jailers were talking about?

Magellan stared intently at the live monitoring footage transmitted by the monitoring Den Den Mushi.

Just then, Storm, who was running out of energy, summoned a group of clay giants and launched a brutal beating on Mino Zebra.

Is this Storm?

Magellan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

In his hands, how come the Mino Zebra looks so weak, like a zebra doll?

What happened inside the monitoring room.

It is currently unknown whether Storm will be able to answer this question.

All he knew was that MinoZebra soon provided another Gold Trophy.

"Repeatedly defeating the same target in a short period of time will cause the quality of the opponent's trophy to decline."

Storm sat cross-legged on the ground, recovering his strength and waiting for the Mino Zebra to awaken again.

Does this mean that the Grand Prix also has a cooldown period?

"There's one more thing, which is... just how badly will the quality of the Mino Zebra trophy decline?"

Not long after.

Storm's doubts were then answered.

Silver Trophy: Mino Zebra

[Tournament Star Rating: ★★★]

"That's enough, there's no need to fight anymore."

Storm put away the silver trophy and prepared to go find the next victim (crossed out) – the next jailer beast.

"One Jailer Beast can provide one five-star trophy and one four-star trophy."

"Mino Zebra, Mino Cow, Mino Koala, Mino Rhino, these are four five-star trophies!"

"Absolutely not to be missed!"

Before heading off to find the next jailer beast.

Storm first threw the Silver Trophy he had just won into the Swordsmanship skill.

Swordsmanship: ★★★

"Right now, my only one-star ability is [Gun Technique], which looks a bit awkward..."

Storm thought for a moment and decided to find an opportunity later to upgrade both his [Swordsmanship] and [Spearmanship] abilities to four stars.

It doesn't take much effort anyway.

"The focus is still on the Gold Cup and the Platinum Cup!"

Storm's gaze was fixed on the Clay-Clay Fruit.

After he continuously added points, the level of the Clay Fruit reached "★★★★☆".

Storm immediately threw in a gold trophy.

The Clay-Clay Fruit became his first five-star ability!

Followed by.

He also invested the only five-star Platinum Trophy into the Clay Fruit.

Clay-Clay Fruit: ★★★★★☆

"We're just one step away from six stars!"

"Second jailer beast, come into the bowl!"

A sharp red light flashed in Storm's eyes as he unleashed his Observation Haki.

The "sounds" from the outside world were all captured by his Observation Haki.

Just then, Storm sensed an exceptionally powerful target approaching him.

But the aura emanating from the other party was even stronger than that of Mino Zebra!

"Director?"

Storm used [Shave] to rush over quickly and saw Magellan walking slowly towards them.

"Ah, Storm—"

When Magellan greeted them, his face inexplicably contorted, and a sudden, sharp pain shot through his abdomen.

"What were you just doing?"

"Manage the prison guards."

Storm replied calmly.

"The blue gorilla, the sphinx, and the jailer beasts are all creatures with low intelligence."

"Managing these prison guards requires a lot of effort."

"I know—"

Magellan nodded, just about to say something.

But when he said the last word, his tone suddenly rose quite a bit, and he couldn't help but squeeze his legs together.

Storm could vaguely see wisps of pale purple poisonous mist drifting from the corner of Magellan's mouth.

"Director."

Storm involuntarily took a step back, avoiding the poison gas.

"You...you don't have the habit of urinating or defecating anywhere, do you?"

"Although this is a normal physiological activity in animals, I still recommend that you see a veterinarian."

"Ha ha!"

Magellan chuckled twice, then gave his instructions word by word.

"Managing the prison is fine! But don't make too much of a commotion!"

"Absolutely! Never! Be! Like! Shiryu!"

After saying this, Magellan immediately turned and ran away.

I don't know if it's just my imagination.

Storm seemed to see purple smoke billowing from behind the director's backside.

"Never become like Shiryu?"

Storm gazed at Magellan's retreating figure and shook his head.

Who would want to be a destined loser?

Storm disregarded Magellan's teachings.

His Observation Haki failed to detect the presence of the second Jailer Beast.

But it doesn't matter, there are plenty of Den Den Mushi in Impel Down!

Storm arrived at the monitoring room of the Scorching Hell and, with the help of the powerful monitoring system, instantly located the position of the second Jailer Beast.

The Platinum Cup Hunt begins...

In the following days.

Storm constantly sought out Jailer Beasts to spar with and hone his skills.

With the help of several jailer beasts.

Storm trains in Armament Haki in the morning, Observation Haki in the afternoon, and practices Life Return during his three meals a day.

He had mastered all of these abilities, which were at the four-star level.

Strom can now use both types of Haki very freely in battle, and he can do so without wasting any Haki.

Combat endurance has been greatly improved.

Aside from improving one's own abilities.

Storm's greatest reward was the Grand Prize Cup provided by the four Jailer Beasts.

Leaving aside Minolta's Grand Prix Trophy...

Mino the Cow, Mino the Koala, and Mino the Rhinoceros together awarded Storm three Platinum Trophy and three Gold Trophy.

Storm has not yet used the three platinum trophies.

He simply used up all three gold trophies.

Storm invested two gold trophies in the [Endurance] attribute and one in the [Speed] attribute.

These two attributes became—

Endurance: ★★★★★

Speed: ★★★★☆

After Storm fully mastered his increased [physical] attribute and [clay-clay fruit] ability.

It just so happened that Shiryu ended his confinement and left from the extreme cold of hell.

The Director's Office: A scorching inferno.

Several "big shots" from Impel Down gathered together.

Everyone here was ordered by the director to come here.

Magellan's idea was simple: he wanted to take this opportunity to ease the tension between Storm and Shiliu.

Regardless of how the conflict between the two broke out.

Now everyone is putting aside past grievances and working together to govern and advance the city!

boom!

The door to the director's office was pushed open from the outside.

Shiryu, who seemed to still carry a hint of coldness, stepped into the office from the outside.

At Magellan's signal.

Storm went to meet him and walked up to Shiliu.

"Deputy Director."

Storm looked at Shiliu, who was so close to him, and a bright, sunny smile appeared on his face.

"The director wants us to put aside our past grievances, but I think..."

No sooner said than done.

Storm suddenly raised his right fist, gathering all his strength into it, and slammed it down hard towards Shiryu of the Rain's face.

A deep, dark layer of Armament Haki covered the surface of his fist, adding to its power.

Shiliu never expected that Storm would attack him right in front of Magellan!

Caught off guard, Shiliu was struck directly on the left cheek by Storm.

Workplace—The Face-Breaking Punch!

Storm's fist, imbued with Armament Haki, slammed into Shiryu's face.

The latter's chin shook violently and underwent a terrifying deformation.

Thick, fresh blood mixed with a few white teeth traced a graceful arc in the air above the director's office.

Shiryu's body was sent flying backward by the powerful force, crashing directly into the wall of the director's office.

The entire venue was deathly silent.

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!"

"This is more like my style!"

Storm shook his fist and turned to look at Magellan, who was staring blankly.

"Chief, give me a ticket to the freezing cold hell!"
