Chapter's Events: 

—————————

"... You still don't feel like giving up quietly, huh?"

After causing Luffy to fall to his knees, Magellan felt that it was enough, and his opponent couldn't fight anymore.

"... Haa..." 

Luffy breathed heavily, searching for clean air, but it eluded him. 

Then, he closed his suffering with a strong overwhelming will and stood still.

White steam began to rise from his body as he assumed the Gear Second position. 

"I'm gonna save Ace…" 

"And we're getting out of here!!! Haa…" 

"Like hell I'm gonna die without even seeing him!" 

Luffy took a deep breath, then continued, "... You think I'm gonna let Ace get executed!?" 

Luffy looked at his hands, a determined look in his eyes, like a eager spirit willing to sacrifice everything to save Ace. 

"If I'm gonna lose because you're poison and I can't touch you… Haa… Then I'll give up these arms…" 

"So that I can win!!! Haa"

The frightening look in Luffy's eyes and his powerful words made even Magellan step back unconsciously. This strong will was something Magellan had never seen before.

"Haa… Zeeh… Gomu Gomu…" 

"Jet Bazooka!!!" 

Before Magellan could react, Luffy attacked him with incredible speed.

A pit the size of Luffy's fist formed in Magellan's abdomen, who was on the verge of losing consciousness due to Luffy's deadly attack, willing to sacrifice his hands for it.

•———•———•———•———•———•

Luffy's powerful spirit caused a strong ripple of obsession among the Marines in Marineford and the guards at Impel Down.

In Marineford, Sengoku briefly broke into a sweat when he saw the shadow of his old friend, the young Garp, in Luffy for a brief moment.

This was unexpected and bad for Sengoku, who had spent his life chasing pirates and criminals, the number of opponents who made him break into a sweat could be counted on one hand.

But all of them were either stronger than him or at the same level... the difference here was that the current Luffy was incredibly weak!

Even for Magellan, let alone for Sengoku.

"Unbelievable... what a terrifying kid..." 

Sengoku muttered, his appreciation for Luffy growing.

He really wanted to prevent Dragon from having this dangerous kid!

"For the sake of saving his brother, he's willing to sacrifice his hands in front of an opponent he can't even touch... what a heroic spirit." 

Tsuru couldn't hide her praise for Luffy's heroic spirit.

"Tsk, useless Magellan... to show such an expression as if a child hitting you is making you want to vomit... where will you put your face in the future?" 

For Akainu, no matter how strong Luffy's determination was, he was still too weak, otherwise, Borsalino wouldn't have caused him so much despair in the Sabaody Archipelago before.

To be hit by a kid and almost lose consciousness is a sign of weakness in Magellan!

This is unforgivable in Sakazuki's dictionary, weakness resulting from weak justice in a soldier's heart!

This was the creed of the strong admiral!

"Arara~ What an amazing boy... to be able to harm Magellan, he must have hit him with all his strength." 

But for Kuzan, he praised Luffy's strength rather than Magellan's weakness.

Kuzan was extremely impressed with Luffy's personality, although he hadn't admitted it openly before.

"Jet Bazooka? Oh~ very frightening... even I would turn into a continent-crossing light if I received that attack..." 

This time, no one knew whether Borsalino was joking or telling the truth.

"This boy Luffy surprises me every time..."

 For Zephyr, he had a similar feeling to Sengoku at this moment.

He also saw a young Garp's silhouette in Luffy... 

... 

Returning to where the families of Rob and Roger were gathered, silence prevailed.

Until Roger decided to speak.

"For his brother, he spared no effort... can I give my son a brother like that in this life too?"

Beside him, Rouge was also moved to the point of tears, not expecting that Luffy would love Ace to this extent.

This strong bond, above the bond of blood, was something any human would wish for but wouldn't get just by wishing.

"Sigh~ what did these boys go through to have such a strong brotherly bond..." 

Olvia wondered gently.

"Waaah~" 

Bentham cried like Franky at this moment, as a pure child, he was the most affected because of Luffy and Ace.

But in the next chapter, the boy's tears didn't stop flowing...

...

"... Fools…!!"

Hannyabal looked at the two on the ground and didn't bother mocking them. Internally, he was more mocking:

(If you two had gotten through here and made trouble, I could have blamed it on the chief warden!) 

(I told you two that you could pass, but you idiots still came at me…)

"… Kaa.. Ka…" 

"Ah… Augh… Ahh…" 

Both Buggy and Mister 3 were sprawled on the ground after suffering a violent beating from Hannyabal. 

{Reporting from the passage to Level 3. We have a few casualties from a bomb attack.} 

{Yes… Buggy the Clown and Mister 3 have been captured!!}

Buggy's face was extremely miserable, but he could still speak despite his weakened voice: 

"He's… He's… Strong! He's stronger than expected!!! Haa…!! Damn you, Hannyabal…!!! Zeeh."

The same went for Mister 3, whose tongue was hanging out of his mouth: 

"I don't want… to be tortured…!!! If you're going to torture me… then I'll bite my tongue off right here and now!!!" 

"… Okay… gonna bite it…"

•———•———•———•———•———•

The weather in the New World turned cloudy, then the sky roared, and thunderstruck.

Rain began to fall heavily on the island where the Pirate King's crew currently rested.

Rayleigh's eyes gleamed red as raindrops slowed down and ceased to fall within the group's range.

"This is ridiculous!" 

Buggy's eyes widened as he witnessed this scene in the manga.

"Hahaha!! This is the irony of fate! Hannyabal crushed you!" laughed Shanks.

"That's what you deserve!" said Rayleigh.

"Hahahaahaha!! This is hilarious! I feel Hannyabal is even more satisfying to the eyes after crushing both of you." added Gaban.

"That's what you deserve after abandoning Luffy and using him to attract attention all the time."

"Hahahaahaha! The funniest thing is that Hannyabal allowed you to pass, you guys, but you chose to confront him."

"Hahahaahaha! This Hannyabal is so funny... To become Chief Warden, he wants to cast all the blame on Magellan."

Upon hearing that, Buggy trembled with anger.

He had been angry at his counterpart's weakness in the manga.

"That bastard...!!! Even Hannyabal could defeat him!? Then what will he do with Magellan?" 

After flipping the page and seeing Luffy's suffering with Magellan, Buggy swallowed his saliva in terror.

The bloody scenes caused him to shudder.

The same went for Rayleigh, Shanks, Gaban, and the others whose expressions changed to annoyance, and they fell silent.

They scrutinized the details of the battle in silence, a battle heading towards only one outcome.

Luffy's defeat...!
