Chapter 4: Chapter 4
The first level of the Impel Down.
A massive iron gate stood tall, tightly closed!
Inside the gate, a group of guards stood in formation, prepared for battle.
Outside the gate, four warships were docked, their cannons aimed at the interior.
The entire area was filled with a chilling atmosphere!
Tap, tap.
Footsteps approached, and soon, two vague figures, one tall and one short, became visible, appearing and disappearing.
The guards immediately became tense. The fearsome reputation of Jack, the Devil's Heir, made even these low-ranking soldiers apprehensive.
"They've arrived? They actually managed to escape? What should we do?"
"Why hasn't Vice Warden Hannyabal brought Chief Jailer Shiryu yet?"
Everything was so quiet, an eerie silence!
With each footstep, the pressure on the guards increased!
Gradually, the figures became clearer.
It was... Jack and Bullet!
After escaping from the sixth level, Jack and Bullet made their way towards the first level of the sea prison.
Getting lost was impossible!
As long as there was no Seastone mixed within the walls of Impel Down, it couldn't stop Jack, who possessed the Float-Float Fruit, and Bullet, who possessed the Clank-Clank Fruit.
Jack could use his ability to make every brick, floor, and patch of sand float.
Bullet, on the other hand, could assimilate any material he encountered into his own body using his Fruit.
"Douglas Bullet! Jack!"
"Stop in your tracks!"
"No passage ahead!"
Leading the guards was Deputy Chief Jailer Domino, hoping to intimidate Jack and Bullet with their superior numbers.
However, it was all in vain.
Jack and Bullet remained unfazed, calmly moving forward without a sense of urgency to escape.
Is this really an escape?
Why are they so relaxed?
Are they just here for a stroll?
They're completely disregarding us!
Seeing that the two didn't stop or run, Domino felt a slight confusion and immediately gave the order.
"Open fire!"
In an instant, flames erupted!
Bang! Bang! Bang...
The guards kept firing at Jack and Bullet as they approached.
However, the bullets didn't cause any substantial harm to them.
Jack used the Float-Float Fruit to control the swords, blocking the bullets.
Bullet had a simpler method. As the bullets were about to hit, he immediately activated his Busoshoku Haki to defend against them.
"How is this possible?!"
"They're completely unaffected?!"
"Seastone bullets!"
The hail of bullets had no effect on Jack and Bullet, causing the guards to chatter anxiously.
At that moment, Jack stopped and crouched down, his right hand touching the ground.
This action made the guards pause their actions.
"They stopped?"
"What's going on?"
"Did they succeed?"
...
In the next moment, Jack's voice quietly echoed.
"Shishi Iwa: Chijuu" (Lion Roar: Earth Roll).
Boom!
Under the influence of Jack's Float-Float Fruit ability, the ground beneath Impel Down started to rise, forming several lion-shaped earth chunks that surged toward the gate.
"Is that really the Float-Float Fruit power of the Golden Lion?!"
"To think it's in the hands of a brat like him!"
"Oh no! It's too massive!"
The guards were shocked and panicked at the sight, unable to comprehend the scene before them.
In truth, the "lions" created by Shishi Iwa: Chijuu weren't as large as those of the Golden Lion.
Due to limited space, Jack couldn't fully unleash its power.
Rumble!
Swish!
In an instant, a sword light flashed, shattering the lion chunks into pieces!
Following that, a figure appeared.
Jack looked up at the person and revealed a smile.
Finally, Shiryu has arrived.
"Shishi Iwa: Chijuu!"
Although the lion was crushed by Shiryu, it didn't completely disappear from the air.
At this moment, Jack regained control of his ability, reshaping the lions and launching them at Shiryu.
Rumble...
"Golden Lion? No, who are you?"
"How can you possess such strength?"
Shiryu's expression darkened as he faced this formidable opponent. He swung his sword, "Raiu," releasing a cross-shaped sword aura.
Swish!
Boom!
This time, Shishi Iwa: Chijuu wasn't shattered by the slash but instead engulfed it...
"How is this possible? It's even stronger than the previous attack!"
"I underestimated them!"
Shiryu was greatly surprised, but before he could readjust, Shishi Iwa: Chijuu submerged him.
Bullet crossed his arms,
Before, with an approving gaze, Jack looked at him, making him even more confident in his partner's ability to surpass Roger.
Boom!
The ground rolled up into a towering stone tornado, reaching the ceiling!
"What... What?!!"
"Was Shiryu killed in an instant?"
Hannyabal, who arrived late, looked at the battle scene in utter shock!
The nearby guards in gate were equally astonished!
After a while, the stone tornado finally stopped, forming a pillar with Shiryu's head embedded on top.
When Shiryu was engulfed, he used Armament Haki to protect his vital points, preventing serious injuries. So, at this moment, he wasn't heavily wounded, just immobilized.
Jack bent down, looking at Shiryu's miserable appearance, and extended a hand, inviting him:
"Hey, Shiryu, would you like to be my crewmate?"
"Let's turn the world upside down together!"
