Chapter 156: Bullet

Bullet recovered the fastest among all of them, but even after he recovered, Luo Ning didn't fight him directly. Instead, Luo Ning planned to wait until the others recovered.

The Red Count's current strength has declined a lot, but Bullet doesn't have true Four Emperors level combat power. It's a pity they entered the movie adaptation, and the strong characters who did aren't much better.

No matter how Kaido and the others play "Immune to Death," they're just like cockroaches. If you let them enter the movie adaptation to try, they'd be smashed by Luffy within minutes. Bullet's strength isn't weak at all.

Otherwise, Garp and Sengoku wouldn't have needed to be dispatched to take him down.

And in terms of settings, this product is still getting stronger, and Four Emperors-level combat power is definitely there.

After everyone else had recovered to their best condition, all five of them were brought to the arena above the sea.

"He really prepared a ring, this guy is quite interesting!"

The Red Count looked at the ring in front of him speechlessly. In his opinion, Luo Ning was either a martial idiot or had a serious mental illness. Otherwise, why would there be a ring?

Just after several people came to the ground, suddenly one of them rushed out directly, towards the outside of Impel Down.

"You idiots actually brought this uncle here! Such a good opportunity, this uncle will not let it go!"

A prisoner didn't intend to fight Luo Ning, but ran away directly. In fact, he wasn't the only one. Besides Bullet and the Red Count, the other two also had the same plan.

It's just that they didn't run away directly, but planned to let this guy explore the way ahead. They aren't idiots.

There aren't many people who can get along to this level like Jack, and even though Jack is a reckless man, he also knows how to play tricks. This is the same as Kaido, and he is worthy of being a pirate.

Just then, the prisoner reached the side of the high wall and was about to jump out when a Reiatsu light beam blasted down. The prisoner's body was instantly torn apart by the terrifying Reiatsu blast.

This attack showcased Luo Ning's ability to use Reiatsu offensively, and its power was truly frightening. With this single move, he completely obliterated his opponent.

"It's best to stay put," Luo Ning sighed, shaking his head helplessly. While Bullet and the Red Count were somewhat surprised, the other two big pirates were now sweating profusely.

"Finally! Let me be your first opponent!" Bullet declared, his gaze fixed on Luo Ning. Since Roger's death, his sole goal had been to become the strongest. He craved any challenge, regardless of the opponent's strength or fame.

"No, no, Bullet," Luo Ning chuckled, revealing his sharp white fangs. "This arena wasn't designed for a simple one-on-one duel with you. I specifically chose five of you to fight together. Of course, with one escapee, that leaves four of you now."

Luo Ning's words, delivered with a carefree grin, infuriated both Bullet and the Red Count. After all, they were all renowned powerhouses. Asking them to join forces against a single opponent was an outrageous proposition.

"Are you kidding me?!"

Bullet roared incredulously. He charged forward, his fist imbued with Armament Haki, and launched a powerful blow towards Luo Ning.

However, Luo Ning stood his ground, meeting Bullet's fist with his own. The two fists collided, sending tremors through the arena, which promptly split apart before miraculously self-repairing.

Luo Ning had imbued the arena with the power of fantasy, granting it not only immense durability but also the ability to automatically recover, ensuring the battle wouldn't be interrupted by a destroyed battlefield.

A layer of Reiatsu shield also surrounded the arena to prevent the aftershocks of their clash from escaping. After all, this was Impel Down, not some lawless wasteland. Excessive battle-induced fluctuations could disrupt Luo Ning's control over Impel Down, so he took meticulous measures to ensure everything went smoothly.

BOOM!

Their fists collided with a sound like a giant bomb detonating. Bullet shot backward at an alarming speed, slamming into the Reiatsu shield and bouncing off before crashing into the ground, creating a large crater. However, this crater was also continuously repairing itself.

"Incredible power! Ugh!" Bullet coughed up a mouthful of blood, his voice tinged with awe as he rose to his feet.

"A single blow sent Bullet flying like that?" The Red Count was taken aback by the sight of Bullet vomiting blood. He also noticed a slight tremor in Bullet's arm. The force of the punch had clearly exceeded Bullet's tolerance.

Bullet made no attempt to conceal his discomfort, and the Red Count's expression turned serious. He wouldn't dare claim he could injure Bullet with a single blow himself. Now, witnessing Luo Ning overpower Bullet in a head-on collision was simply unbelievable.

"A monster! An undefeatable monster!" The other two big pirates, witnessing the mighty Bullet being pummeled so effortlessly, fell into despair. Escape was no longer an option, and their individual strength was insufficient to defeat their opponent.

One could say the sliver of hope Luo Ning offered them initially was utterly meaningless now.

"Can you guys fight together now?" Luo Ning inquired, waving his hand dismissively.

"Absolutely! We have no chance if we fight alone. How can such a monster exist in this world? You're a whole different beast compared to last time!"

The Red Count recalled the previous encounter, where Luo Ning and Magellan had fallen to the sixth floor during their fight. They had all witnessed Luo Ning's strength then.

However, Luo Ning's current power was simply overwhelming, far beyond what one or two individuals could handle. So, the Red Count had cast aside his pride. After all, defeating their opponent meant freedom. Compromising for freedom wasn't a complete sell-out.

"Shut your trap! I refuse to join forces with you, you decrepit old man!"

Bullet, unlike the Red Count, would never compromise simply because their enemy was formidable. The idea of joining forces with others was still out of the question for him. That was just who Bullet was.

"Kid, don't you want freedom?" The Red Count felt exasperated. This young man's brain was pure brawn, it was hopeless!

"Freedom? Once I defeat this guy, I'll naturally be free. Now, don't get in my way!"

With that, Bullet charged towards Luo Ning once more.
