Chapter 198 Magellan's News Shocks the Sengoku Period
Silence, nothing but silence. Whether it was Magellan emerging from the washroom or the prison guards standing watch in the office, everyone was enveloped in an eerie silence.
"call.
Magellan let out a long sigh of relief, then said, "Laugh if you want to."
These kids saw what he looked like before, so he's basically doomed.
But Magellan couldn't say anything, after all... it was his own problem.
It's fair to say that Magellan has now given up entirely.
Upon hearing Magellan's words, the jailers immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
At least their warden wasn't driven to the brink of collapse.
Then, they said excitedly, "Warden, how could we possibly laugh at you?!"
"That's right, Warden, you're working so hard and you still insist on fighting, what reason do we have to laugh at you?"
"It's all that damned blood-eyed ninja's fault! We have to kill him!"
"Kill him!"
The prison guards were in a frenzy, eager to find that damned blood-eyed ninja right now!
Seeing his subordinates' reactions, Magellan's eyes showed a hint of emotion.
"Warden, please give the order!"
"That's right, even if it means death, we will keep these damned bastards in the underwater prison!" the jailer said excitedly.
That bastard dared to treat their respected warden like that; that bastard must be killed!
"Catching him now won't be easy." After calming down, Magellan pondered for a moment and said, "He has earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows him to move underground at any time)."
"Without strong Observation Haki, it's impossible to pinpoint his location."
Although they didn't know why the opponent's earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a technique that allows one to escape into rocks), the fact that the opponent could burrow underground meant that it would be very difficult for them to catch the opponent.
"What should we do then?" the jailer asked. "Are we just going to abandon them?"
According to the surveillance footage from the spiral staircase, the other party had already entered the fifth floor.
If left unchecked, no one knows what might happen.
"Of course we should manage it!" Magellan said. "But there are more important things to do now."
A look of confusion appeared in the eyes of the prison guards, clearly not understanding what their warden meant.
However, Magellan did not explain, but simply ordered them to assist their companions in treating the wounded, and to bring Hannibal over.
After all the jailers had left, Magellan frowned and said, "I wonder if any of these people were hypnotized by the Blood-Eyed Ninja."
When the opponent was fighting him, he created a clone, which might hypnotize a prison guard along the way.
This is also why he didn't reveal his plan, for fear of exposing his true purpose!
Back at his desk, Magellan frowned and said, "Earth Release and Hypnosis... these are really troublesome abilities!"
"That means he could find the sixth floor at any time!"
Magellan had no idea where the limits of the other party's hypnosis lay. If he could hypnotize Sadie or Saldeus,
That way, we can find out that Fire Fist Ace is imprisoned on the sixth floor!
Although Saldes said he had never had face-to-face contact with the Blood-Eyed Ninja, Little Sadie had faced that man!
"He may have hypnotized Little Sadie before I even got there," Magellan thought to himself.
In this way, the other party has a chance to know Fire Fist Ace's location!
In addition, there's the Earth Release technique of the Blood-Eyed Ninja.
With this in mind, Magellan became even more determined in his thinking.
Magellan then opened the drawer of his desk, took out the special Den Den Mushi, and dialed the number of Sengoku-sensei.
"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"
"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"
"Pineapple pineapple pineapple~"
"Kaka~"
"I am from the Warring States period!"
"Marshal of the Warring States Period, I am Magellan," Magellan said.
"Magellan?"
Sengoku was visibly taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said, "Your sudden contact with me means... something has happened at the underwater prison, right?"
Could it be that the Blood-Eyed Ninja rescued Fire Fist Ace and successfully escaped from prison?
Upon realizing this, Zhan Guo's heart sank.
"That's one way to put it."
"That's also possible..." Sengoku asked, puzzled. "How so?"
"You should still remember the information about the Blood-Eyed Ninja, right?"
"certainly."
As he spoke, Sengoku reviewed the information about the Blood-Eyed Ninja in his mind, then said, "Could it be that your poison can't break his immortality?"
"Yes," Magellan said, taking a deep breath. "I fought him for hours, killing him many times, but each time he would reappear in another place."
Sengoku fell silent. He hadn't expected that guy to be so powerful; even Magellan, a natural enemy of life, couldn't break his immortality.
Damn it, could that guy really be immortal?
The moment the thought crossed Sengoku's mind, he crushed it.
In his view, true immortality is impossible in this world.
Magellan didn't kill his opponent, most likely because the opponent still had the stamina to continue using his abilities.
If we fight for several days and nights, we might be able to wear them down!
But when Sengoku thought about Magellan's physical condition, he was in a dilemma again.
"This kid has diarrhea for ten hours a day, he can't possibly last that long."
Thinking of this, Sengoku said, "In that case, I will send a general to support you."
Although the risks are great, the underwater prison cannot afford to fail.
"No!" Magellan shook his head and said, "The Whitebeard Pirates could launch a surprise attack on Marine Headquarters at any time. Losing an admiral would be too much of a problem."
Magellan knew very well that to kill the Blood-Eyed Ninja, he would have to grind him down over time!
Only after completely exhausting the opponent's stamina can you truly break his immortality!
But that would take a very long time.
What if the Whitebeard Pirates launch a surprise attack on Marine Headquarters while the Admirals are fighting here?
"are you sure?"
"I'm sure," Magellan nodded. "I'll find a way to stop him."
"and you.
Sengoku hesitated, wanting to say something but holding back. He really wanted to say that if you force yourself to fight while your stomach hurts, you might be...
However, such words could be hurtful, so the Warring States period didn't say them.
Perhaps sensing what Sengoku was about to say, Magellan closed his eyes and said with some pain, "That situation has already occurred."
Warring States Period
Even though Magellan didn't say it explicitly, Sengoku immediately understood what Magellan meant.
After all... the other party had said before that the two had been fighting for several hours.
Those few hours could potentially push Magellan's physical condition to its limit, and then...
Thinking of this, Zhan Guo sighed and said, "You've suffered."
"It's alright, I've accepted reality." Magellan shook his head, then said solemnly, "I will risk everything to stop them, Marshal Sengoku."
"However, there is one thing that requires your consent."
Sengoku paused for a moment, then asked, "What is it?"
"I need you to bring Fire Fist Ace back to Marine Headquarters right now!" Magellan said earnestly.
"Now?"
Sengoku frowned and asked, "Why?"
"Because the Blood-Eyed Ninja's Earth Release technique can be used on the rocky floor of Impel Down!" Magellan said. "Even if the floor of Impel Down is made of layers of various materials, he can still burrow underground!"
Warring States Period: !!!
Upon hearing Magellan's words, Sengoku's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed, "His Earth Release technique can actually achieve this level?!"
Back in the Sabaody Archipelago, the opponent demonstrated the Earth Release technique to Borsalino and Sakazuki. They originally thought the opponent could only use it on land, but it turns out they can even use it on rocks?
That's way too outrageous!
"No wonder they were able to infiltrate the underwater prison so silently," Sengoku murmured to himself.
Water Release: Water Release allows the opponent to move on the sea, thus enabling them to silently reach the vicinity of the underwater prison.
Earth Escape Technique allows the opponent to silently infiltrate the underwater prison.
Damn, the opponent's abilities are too perfect!
"Yes," Magellan said, "His earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a term used to describe a technique or method of earth-遁术 that is just that outrageous)."
"Plus hypnosis—I suspect he might already know where Fire Fist Ace is."
"They might already be searching for each other's location!!"
This is why he insisted on taking Fire Fist Ace away ahead of schedule!
"If that's the case, then we really need to take them away," Sengoku said with a grim face.
If the Blood-Eyed Ninja had rescued Fire Fist Ace beforehand, their public execution would have been impossible, and the Navy would have lost all face!
This was something the Warring States period could not tolerate.
"Then send someone to pick him up," Magellan said, standing up. "I'll go and bring him out right away."
"Alright, I'll send Borsalino to Impel Down right away," Sengoku said. "He'll get there as quickly as possible."
"general?"
"Marshal of the Warring States Period, I've already said it."
"I understand!" Sengoku interrupted Magellan, saying, "But escorting Portgas D. Ace is no small matter either."
Sending him would not only be safer, but also faster.
After saying that, Sengoku paused for a moment, then said, "However, this will put more pressure on you."
Once the other side discovers that Fire Fist Ace has been taken away, they may take some retaliatory actions.
For example, releasing more prisoners, or... using a water-escape technique to flood the underwater prison with seawater!
Thinking of this, a shadow fell over the eyes of the Warring States.
"I know, I know exactly what will happen," Magellan said, "but this is something that must be done!"
Magellan knew very well that from the moment he poisoned the Straw Hat Boy, there was no room for reconciliation between the two sides, so there was nothing to worry about.
The moment the other party reappears, he will risk everything to keep them in the underwater prison!
"Okay, I understand. I'll send Borsalino off right away."
"yes!"
"Kaka~"
Looking at the Den Den Mushi that had hung up, Sengoku rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.
"That damned blood-eyed ninja."
Normally, he would have simply sent his general inside to kill the enemy, but at this particular time he needed to be wary of Whitebeard.
Thinking of this, Zhan Guo sighed deeply.
Then, Sengoku looked at the communications soldier and said, "Go and call Borsalino over here."
"yes!"
Borsalino quickly arrived after receiving the news, but he still had that nonchalant look on his face.
"Oh~"
"Marshal Sengoku, what brings you here?" Borsalino asked.
"We need you to go to the underwater prison."
"Um?"
Borsalino paused for a moment, then asked with some surprise, "What happened over there?"
He thought about it for a moment and concluded that it probably wasn't the Whitebeard Pirates who launched a surprise attack on Impel Down, otherwise they wouldn't have only sent one of his admirals.
But if it's not the Whitebeard Pirates, why would they need to send out a Marine Admiral like him?
"Blood-Eyed Ninja Xiyan and Straw Hat Boy have invaded Impel Down."
"Is there really such a thing?"
Borsalino remarked, "These newcomers these days are really... wow!"
He really didn't expect that those guys who disappeared in the Sabaody Archipelago would appear in the underwater prison.
"Was it made by a bear?" Borsalino thought to himself, "It's not impossible."
However... as pirates, they actually dared to invade the underwater prison; they certainly had a lot of guts.
"That ninja kid's Earth Release technique can be used on the rocky ground of Impel Down, which might allow him to rescue Portgas D. Ace," Sengoku said. "So I need you to go there and bring Portgas D. Ace back to Marine Headquarters."
"Is that so?"
Borsalino nodded, then asked with some doubt, "Don't you need me to kill him?"
Although Sakazuki's report stated that the opponent possessed the ability of apparent immortality, as long as he killed him enough times, he could probably exhaust his stamina.
After all... abilities are activated by physical strength!
Once the opponent's stamina is exhausted, he can kill or capture them!
"No, we don't have time."
"What do you mean?"
"You know Magellan's abilities; he fought the Blood-Eyed Ninja for hours and couldn't break his immortality," Sengoku said. "This means that to kill or capture him alive, we'll need to exhaust his stamina for an even longer period!"
"I see."
Borsalino frowned and said, "That's really a headache."
Borsalino knew about Magellan.
Although his opponent was not as strong as him, the role he could play in the underwater prison was no less significant.
After all: the opponent's entire body is covered in toxins that counteract living organisms!
Once the enemy goes all out in battle, the battlefield will be filled with terrible toxins!
In that kind of environment, other people could lose their lives at any moment!
"And under these circumstances, can that kid still survive for several hours?" Borsalino thought to himself.
That means even if he wanted to kill that guy, it wouldn't be an easy task.
With that in mind, Borsalino abandoned the idea of fighting there.
After all... he really can't be away for too long.
"The Whitebeard Pirates could launch a surprise attack on Marine Headquarters at any moment, and you don't have much time," Sengoku said, taking a deep breath. "So let's set off quickly and finish this quickly."
"Okay, I understand. I'll set off right away to bring Fire Fist Ace back."
After saying that, Borsalino left without hesitation.
After watching Borsalino leave, Sengoku muttered, "Hopefully Magellan can get the man out before that kid does."
Otherwise, their navy would really lose face.
Thinking of this, Sengoku sighed silently.
