Chapter 98

Marineford, it was on this side of the Grand Line, and beyond that was the holy land of Mary Geoah. Impel Down and Enias Lobby were nearby. Three fortresses were located in a kind of triangle, in the middle of which there was a huge whirlpool.

I have already visited Marie Geoah, it was fun, but in Marineford ... Hmm, yes, this time everything may go completely different from the canon. Moria is dead, Kizaru is injured, Teach is out of fruit, and even Luffy probably won't arrive. In general, everything is completely different, who knows how the war will end this time.

We sailed for several days, and then we had to act differently. The guys were ready for battle, and they were already sharpening weapons in everything. Our new doctor has to go as well. Aliya is not as weak as it seems, she has a well-developed will to observe and, as it turned out, her grandmother taught the girl to defend herself. Coupled with her incredible self-healing ability and her ability to simply ignore pain with the fruit, she is quite powerful. Even though I said I would look after her, that doesn't mean she won't fight when needed. North will always be there and, if anything, will cover her at the right time, so I was not particularly worried. The battle is dangerous, but if she sits on the ship, and everyone fights, then this can badly affect her. And apparently, she doesn't mind, she's just too nervous, yet she has never had to fight with anyone before. We are a team, so everyone must take part in the battle, otherwise there is no way ...

Before going to Marineford, I had to finish some things. The battle, I think, will not be soon, although the sea is calm, but I think this is just the beginning. Ace should have been picked up by now, so I hope no one will disturb me. The guys stayed here, and I hit the road ... to Impel Down.

***

I was standing over a huge fortress surrounded by many warships. There were guards and many mortars around the perimeter. If I were an ordinary pirate, it would be almost impossible to penetrate here, but, I am not at all the same as before.

I covered myself with a gravity barrier and began to slowly descend into the water. Water does not act on the fruit until it touches it, and it should be just "standing water". Rain or something similar will not work. That is why the strength of the fruit is quite possible to use on water and in water. Freeze, evaporate, move, even Aokiji freezes "stagnant water" without any problems and calmly moves through it. Therefore, I found a good method to get into the legendary prison, namely under water.

When I went deep enough, I stopped at a level with several small windows. I looked inside the building and ...

* Vshuh *

Instantly teleported using the forces of darkness. A very useful ability, the main thing is to see the place, and together with the will of observation, even there is no need for sight.

I got into a room full of sentinels and various monitors displaying images from different parts of the prison. Judge by the numbers on the wall, I'm still on the first level, not bad ...

The Marines were already about to do something, but were instantly disconnected when I hit them with the royal will. I calmly opened the door and went on, my path lay to the very bottom, as well as to a special floor full of Newcam or whatever ... It was worth freeing them, since Luffy will not be there. Well, on the top floor, of course, I planned to get hold of new devil fruits, as well as find those who have a reward of more than three hundred million. Eh ... Yes, this is a real paradise for pumping. Well, I'll release someone else, I have a mood ...

Walking through the floors, I met various resistance and it was quickly suppressed by me. Various strange creatures, even the sentinels attacked me, but quickly lost. I met a large lizard beast and quickly pacified him, sat on it and continued on my way more than one. So I got to the fourth floor. It was hot here, I was surprised how people are able to breathe here, just horror ... I had to leave the lizard higher, it could not bear the temperature.

The third floor was uninteresting, I quickly made my way down, "Hungry Hell" tired me and got melancholy, so I quickly dumped out of there. Of course, I did not forget about my comrades in the craft, so I smashed a lot of cells to pieces and freed a decent number of people. I really doubt that they will be able to escape, I might get someone out, but definitely not them. There was no point in killing them at all, their rewards were too small, even on the fifth floor I probably won't find people suitable for me. Therefore, only the sixth floor, only there I can find someone.

While I was enjoying the temperatures of the Burning Hells, I sensed someone's rapid approach. Judging by the aura, someone is not weak, I wonder ...

I waited a few seconds, and then the one I was waiting for appeared.

Big guy, much taller than me. He had black wings on his back and horns on his head. The color of his clothes was different from most of the guards I met. Black tunic and red shirt. In general, his appearance was right to match the terrible jailer.

He stood twenty meters away from me and stared at me.

I chuckled and asked:

- What are you looking at, can we disperse peacefully and no one will suffer?

Magellan snorted.

- What else, the devil, albeit a sea, a place in hell, I think you should stay.

"Ha ha ha, sounds good, but do you really think you can make me?

A violet liquid began to flow from Magellan's body, and he said menacingly:

- Now we will find out.

I looked at him with a smile, and then instantly disappeared and was behind him. The jailer did not expect such a turn and tried to cover his body with poison. But it was too late, gravity was pressing on him, and my fist was rushing right into his chest ...

*BOOM!*

"Uhh ..." A fist punched through his back, and the fruit's power was blocked.

Magellan slowly turned his head and looked at me, I smiled and said:

- Your poison can be problematic, did you really think that I would wait until you gather your strength?

Magellan chuckled wryly, and then darkness began to cover him ...

When I came out of the black sphere, with a smile, I threw a strange purple fruit with a red stem. Doku Doku no Mi, not a bad purchase, I might find something to put it. Managing poisons, this ability is very strong. Whitebeard Fruit and Big Mom are completely unique of course, but Doku Doku is also terribly strong. In the hands of the right person, this fruit can be very dangerous. After all, in the hands of Luffy, even an ordinary Gomu Gomu was able to show such power, but what could a poisonous fruit be able to do? In general, I naturally took it, I was not going to miss such a present.

After removing the devil fruit, I moved on, there was the fifth floor ahead ...
