"Thunder Breathing, Eighth Form: Thunder Dragon Descends!"
"Roar———!"
The deafening sound of intertwining thunder, like a dragon's roar.
Standing in front of Vivian, Catarina Devon was completely stunned by the enormous golden thunder dragon. Her legs froze in place until the dragon engulfed her. The other prisoners finally snapped out of their daze and screamed in terror.
"Run!"
"We'll be electrocuted to ashes!"
The prisoners, who had been advancing towards the entrance with great momentum, scattered in all directions like birds and beasts.
But in the face of such a terrifying dragon strike, all actions seemed futile.
In the blink of an eye, the thunder light covered the entire ground within sight.
Accompanied by the continuous "zila" sound, thick smoke quickly spread, and hundreds of prisoners fell to the ground, convulsing wildly with burns all over their bodies.
In the distance.
"Hiss!"
The gatekeepers, who saw this scene from afar, couldn't help but gasp in shock. "Did Captain Vivian… kill all those prisoners?"
"That can't be… Killing so many people, even if they are prisoners, he would be sentenced to death."
"This is too much…"
Everyone looked very worried, especially Domino.
She thought that, given the severity of their injuries, even if she took full responsibility, it would be futile. After all, who else in the entire Impel Down prison could do something so outrageous besides Vivian?
"Don't worry."
At the same time, Saldeath interrupted everyone's discussion, saying, "Vivian clearly held back. Didn't you see that most of them are still alive? They're just injured. As long as they don't die, there won't be any problems."
As prison guards, haven't they tortured prisoners enough every day?
As long as they don't kill the prisoners, even if they cripple them, Warden Magellan would turn a blind eye. Not to mention just burns; Magellan probably wouldn't even bother with this level of injury.
"But…"
"But what?"
Seeing Saldeath speak again, everyone immediately focused their attention on him.
"But Vivian's strength is far beyond my imagination."
He's really as strong as a monster…
…
At the same time, on the first floor of the sea, in the monitoring room.
Hannibal and a group of guards sat in front of the monitor, watching the scene of Vivian going berserk on the sixth floor. They were all stunned, unable to speak for a long time.
After a while, Hannibal grabbed the pile of bets on the table and stuffed them into his pocket. They finally came to their senses and swallowed, saying, "Captain Vivian… is really that powerful?"
"Of course, you saw it with your own eyes, didn't you?" Hannibal glanced at the guard.
"But why is someone so strong just a Petty Officer?"
"Yeah, the power of that move just now could probably rival Warden Magellan's Poison Giant, right?"
"Maybe even stronger than Warden Magellan's Poison Giant…"
After all, it was a dragon.
A dragon with electric light, which looked much more impressive than the Poison Giant.
"If Captain Vivian continues to work in Impel Down, he would at least start as the deputy warden."
Someone else said.
The next second, Hannibal pulled out his trident and pointed it at the guard's head, asking, "What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly. Can you say it again?"
The guards: ┏(゜口゜;)┛
…
The scene returned to the sixth floor.
Vivian's strike had almost completely crushed the morale of the prisoners trying to escape.
The remaining ten percent were the few pirates on the sixth floor who hadn't been electrocuted, and the followers of Buggy who had been following him since his imprisonment.
"Don't worry, everyone, our boss Buggy hasn't made his move yet!"
"Yeah, with Boss Buggy here, even if a Navy Admiral shows up, we'll still fight!"
"Long live Boss Buggy!"
"Boss Buggy is mighty!"
The group of underlings raised their arms and cheered.
Buggy: (°ー°〃)
Cold sweat dripped uncontrollably from his forehead. Buggy's eyes darted around, glancing at Zoro who was fiercely battling. He forced a smile and said, "Ha… haha, although I really want to take that guy down, I'm wearing Sea Prism Stone handcuffs. These things not only seal my Devil Fruit powers but also strip away my original strength…"
As he spoke, he panted heavily and knelt on the ground. "I can barely throw a punch now, I'm so weak. How can I fight someone like that? Of course, if my handcuffs were removed, taking on two or three of those guys would be no problem…"
Just as he finished speaking.
"Boss Buggy, we found the keys to the prisoners on the first two levels!"
A prisoner ran over from a distance, holding up a bunch of keys.
Seeing the keys, Buggy couldn't help but swallow hard, and the cold sweat on his forehead became even more intense.
"Um… I…"
"Hurry, find the keys for Boss Buggy! Once we unlock his handcuffs, we can escape from here!"
Buggy: "…"
…
Boom—!
The ground cracked under a punch from Vasco Shot. Vivian jumped back and swung his sword, sending a flying slash with electric sparks that tore through Shot's prison uniform, causing a large spray of blood to explode in the air.
Shot wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pulled out a flask from behind, and took a swig.
"Hic!" A loud hiccup.
Shot looked at Vivian with dazed eyes and gave a big smile, "I guess I'm no match for you."
"So what?" Vivian lit a cigar.
"So, spare my life, I surrender."
With that, he collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious.
Clap!
Seeing this, Vivian lit his cigar and took a deep drag.
"Hiss~~ exhale!"
This guy was even more cowardly than he had imagined.
They hadn't even fought to a decisive point yet, and he surrendered just because he was at a disadvantage.
Tsk tsk tsk…
As he blew out a smoke ring and was about to turn back to help Zoro, he saw Buggy, looking panicked, being escorted by a group of prisoners, slowly approaching him.
