Chapter 228: The Crushing Power of Absolute Defense! The Venom Demon and the Crimson Demon
On the scorching stone floor, Luffy gripped Sabo's leather-gloved arm tightly.
On his dust- and tear-streaked face, tears rolled down in large, unstoppable droplets, washing away the bloodstains around his wounds.
Looking at his younger brother before him, who was so weak he couldn't even stand steadily, Sabo's eyes also became completely wet with tears.
His face filled with heartache, he pulled Luffy up from the ground with extreme gentleness, letting him lean against his side.
A layer of deep, constantly flowing high-level Armament Haki instantly covered Sabo's hands.
He slowly injected this Haki, filled with both vitality and destructive power, into Luffy's wounds.
He forcibly blocked and temporarily suppressed the purple-black toxins that were spreading wildly through Luffy's nerves and blood vessels.
However, this was a cruel battlefield.
Completely ignored by these sudden intruders, who were even putting on a display of "brotherly affection" right in front of him, Magellan, the Warden and highest authority of Impel Down, felt a sense of unprecedented humiliation and rage.
"Don't get too arrogant, you lawless intruders!"
Magellan's eyes widened, and he let out a violent roar that shook the entire Blazing Hell:
"This is the impregnable fortress of Impel Down!"
"It is not some country tavern for you pirate scum to reminisce in!"
Accompanied by the Warden's boiling killing intent, Magellan held nothing back and completely unleashed the power of his Venom-Venom Fruit.
"Whoosh—!"
The deep purple, lethal venom all over his body erupted like a breached tsunami, blotting out the sky.
This time, the venom did not just condense into three venom dragons; it exploded directly in mid-air, turning into a high-concentration poisonous rain that fell across the sky and covered the entire space!
The purple raindrops, carrying a terrifying acidic aura capable of corroding everything, were determined to dissolve the massive stone bridge spanning the blood pool, along with everyone on it, into a puddle of blood.
Facing this overwhelming, indiscriminate AOE poisonous attack, the joy of reunion on Sabo's face instantly faded, and his brows knitted tightly together.
If he were the only one standing here right now, he could completely rely on his own peak-level Haki to force his way out.
But now, not only did he have to divide his attention to protect the weak Luffy, but Mr. 2 Bon Kurei was also cowering behind him.
It would be very difficult to use an invisible barrier released purely by Haki to withstand the continuous, disaster-level corrosion of Magellan's power over such a large area while protecting multiple people.
Just at this critical, life-or-death moment, a sharp thunderclap that tore through the air suddenly sounded, without warning, in the scorching, distorted sky of the Blazing Hell!
"Boom—Crackle!"
A violent bolt of deep blue lightning, like a meteorite tearing through the sky, struck the stone floor in front of Sabo and Luffy with destructive force.
Gravel flew, and lightning scattered in all directions.
The blinding lightning gradually dissipated.
A tall, upright figure, holding the lightning-overflowing Great Grade sword "Shusui" in one hand, stood steadily beneath the falling poisonous rain.
When he saw this familiar back, the eyes of Luffy, which had been dim due to the poison, instantly erupted with an astonishing brightness.
"Ah!!!" Luffy shouted, his voice cracking with excitement.
"Tatsuya!! You guy... you actually came too!"
Tatsuya did not turn around; he just stood with his back to Luffy, waving his left hand very casually.
He lifted his chin slightly, his handsome face wearing his usual smiling expression, his deep gaze staring fearlessly at the furious Magellan ahead:
"If I can't even protect my own Captain, then as Vice Captain, wouldn't I lose a lot of face on the sea in the future?"
Provoked and slighted to his face by a pirate with a bounty of 600 million, Magellan laughed in extreme anger.
"The price of arrogance is death without a corpse!"
Magellan waved his large hand, controlling the most corrosive concentrated venom dragon, and it opened its massive, sky-blocking maw directly in mid-air.
Accompanied by a nauseating stench, the venom dragon swallowed Tatsuya and the area he was in in one bite, and the purple venom instantly submerged everything.
"No—!" Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, who was hiding behind, clutched his head in despair and let out a shrill scream.
However, just when everyone thought that the black-haired swordsman was already dead and gone, deep within the swamp-like, churning purple-black venom, two complex, eerie crimson patterns began to spin rapidly in Tatsuya's eye sockets!
"Boom—!!!"
A suffocatingly massive amount of crimson Chakra, like a long-suppressed volcano, erupted directly from within the venom!
Under the gaze of Magellan and all the jailers present, who were shocked to the extreme and had even forgotten to breathe, a crimson Demon, clad in heavy Crow Tengu armor, forcibly tore through the thick curtain of venom and rose from the ground.
This translucent energy giant, like a god descending to the world, possessed a massive Chakra skeleton and a spiritual power cloak that seemed almost tangible.
It tightly wrapped Tatsuya, Luffy, Sabo, and the terrified Mr. 2 Bon Kurei within its core safe zone.
The poisonous rain filling the sky and Magellan's venom dragon poured crazily onto the surface of the Susanoo, making "hissing" corrosive sounds and raising large clouds of purple toxic mist.
However, Magellan discovered with horror that his invincible poison, capable of dissolving the world's hardest steel, had absolutely no effect on this layer of translucent Demon armor composed of pure spiritual energy and Chakra.
The venom slid off the edges of the armor and could not penetrate it at all!
This was simply the crushing power of absolute defense.
Tatsuya stood with his arms crossed, standing steadily in the diamond-shaped crystal at the center of the Susanoo's forehead.
He looked down from above at Warden Magellan, whose face was full of disbelief, like a god looking down at an insignificant ant.
In those Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, there was no warmth, only a chilling indifference.
"Poison?" Tatsuya's deep voice resonated through the massive Demon body, booming in the Blazing Hell: "How unfortunate."
The moment the words fell, the towering crimson Demon suddenly stretched out its massive arm and pulled out the giant sword of light condensed from high-density Chakra at its waist.
Tatsuya's right eye narrowed slightly.
"Zzz—Boom!"
In an instant, the blade of that huge sword of light was instantly wrapped in violent, peerless high-level Armament Haki, blinding deep blue lightning, and the Amaterasu black flames that symbolized destruction!
The power of the intertwined black, red, and blue colors caused this giant sword to emit a terrifying fluctuation capable of splitting the sky.
"Susanoo: Takemikazuchi's Punishment!!!"
With a low shout from Tatsuya, the Susanoo raised the giant sword high, and with the overwhelming power to destroy heaven and earth, slashed it down towards Magellan in front and the venom swamp behind him.
"Swish—!!!"
A terrifying sword aura, intertwined with black and red and mixed with thunder, whistled out.
This sword not only instantly split Magellan's prideful giant venom dragon in two, but the peerless sword pressure also continued unabated, directly cleaving a bottomless, shocking chasm through the entire churning, massive blood pool of the Blazing Hell!
"Rumble—!!!"
The entire Impel Down shook violently under this earth-shattering blow, and countless stones fell from the ceiling.
The prisoners and jailers struggling to survive in the cracks fell to the ground one after another, looking up at the ceiling in horror, as if the true apocalypse had arrived.
