Chapter 377: Fight
After defeating several soldiers, Allan finally drew the attention of the guard captain, The Guard Captain.
The Guard Captain led a group of fifty soldiers to surround Allan, along with Mr. 3.
The Guard Captain immediately recognized Mr. 3 and angrily shouted, “It’s you causing trouble!”
Mr. 3, who also knew The Guard Captain, replied calmly, “I’m just following orders from my boss.”
The Guard Captain scoffed at the mention of the mysterious “boss” and retorted, “Crocodile? What a joke. He’s currently imprisoned on the sixth level, Impel Down’s Eternal Hell. How could he give you orders?”
But Mr. 3 just sneered and revealed, “Crocodile is just my former boss. I’m no longer under his command. My boss now is someone else.”
Intrigued, The Guard Captain asked, “Who is it?”
Mr. 3 looked at Allan and ominously replied, “The person standing right next to me.”
The Guard Captain’s gaze narrowed as he scrutinized Allan, trying to figure out his identity.
It was clear that Allan was not a typical prisoner in Impel Down, as he was not wearing prisoner’s clothes.
Who was this mysterious figure standing before them?
The tension in the air was palpable as the two sides faced off, ready for a showdown.
“Could it be that you’re an outsider? Did you release those pirates?” The Guard Captain’s expression changed.
But then he thought it was impossible.
Impel Down is located in the Calm Belt, built on the ocean floor, surrounded by Sea Kings, and is known as the impregnable. Normally, no one can enter without permission, unless they are part of the Marines.
However, Allan is now standing with Mr. 3, and he is clearly not part of the Marines.
This made The Guard Captain even more puzzled.
He’s not a prisoner and he’s not part of the Marines, so who is he?
In the face of The Guard Captain’s doubts, Allan chuckled and said, “My name is Allan. As for how I got in here, it’s a long story and you probably wouldn’t believe me. In any case, I want to leave Impel Down now. If you let me go, I can assure you that this won’t escalate into a bigger issue.”
The Guard Captain snorted in response, “Impel Down is not a place where you can come and go as you please. Plus, you’ve injured so many of our soldiers. Regardless, as the guard captain, I can’t possibly let you leave.”
Allan frowned, “So there’s no room for negotiation?”
“That’s right. The Marines will never compromise with pirates.” The Guard Captain’s voice was firm, showing his strong sense of justice and contempt for pirates.
Allan saw this and said firmly, “Let me make it clear, I’m not a pirate.”
The Guard Captain sneered, “Don’t try to deny it. You’ve taken Mr. 3 as your subordinate, so you’re clearly a fellow pirate. The Marines will never let you go.”
At the same time, the option to connect to the server became available.
[Ding! Make a Choice.]
[1. Confront the guard captain. Reward: Meito- Golden Wolf sword.]
[2. Temporarily retreat. Reward: Ordinary iron sword.]
Without a doubt, Allan’s choice was to defeat The Guard Captain.
Escape was not an option, so he had to fight.
“Guard captain, if you’ve got the guts, come and catch me. I’ll stay and fight.” In the face of Allan’s challenge, The Guard Captain’s face turned cold and he suddenly launched an attack.
“Slash!”
The Guard Captain drew his Katana and, in a flash, swung it towards Allan.
He was fast, as if he had suddenly vanished from his original spot.
But only Allan could see that The Guard Captain had not vanished, but was charging towards him at an extremely fast speed.
The distance of more than ten meters was crossed by The Guard Captain in the blink of an eye.
Facing The Guard Captain’s attack, Allan was well prepared.
He only heard a “clang” as he swung his sword to block The Guard Captain’s Katana.
The Guard Captain’s expression didn’t change as he continued to launch attacks, swinging his Katana and repeatedly hacking at Allan from all angles. His attacks were continuous and fierce, as if he was putting all his strength into trying to take Allan down in one go.
Clang clang clang clang clang clang…
After a lengthy duel, Allan’s sword finally snapped in half due to the intense collision with The Guard Captain’s blade.
The Guard Captain’s Katana, on the other hand, remained untouched and shone with a sharp gleam.
It was clear that The Guard Captain’s weapon was a superior, high-quality sword compared to Allan’s, which was made from wax by Mr. 3 and couldn’t withstand the same level of force.
The Guard Captain sneered at Allan, “Without a sword, you’re finished now.” Allan merely chuckled in response, “We’ll see about that.”
The Guard Captain couldn’t help feeling agitated by Allan’s confidence.
He knew that he hadn’t truly bested Allan in swordsmanship; he had simply had the advantage of a better weapon.
In fact, Allan’s skill with a sword made from wax was impressive, and The Guard Captaincouldn’t shake the feeling that Allan had been holding back during their fight.
As The Guard Captain pondered this, Allan launched an attack.
The Guard Captain was stunned by Allan’s incredible speed, which exceeded his own perception.
Suddenly, Allan’s voice sounded from behind him. “Behind you.”
Panicking, The Guard Captain turned just in time to be struck by a powerful kick from Allan, sending him flying into a nearby wall.
The soldiers rushed over to check on their captain, who lay dazed and bruised.
As they approached, Allan prepared for the worst, but to his surprise, the soldiers merely aimed their guns at him and pulled the triggers.
The gunfire echoed throughout the place, but Allan’s body remained unscathed, protected by a layer of white energy created by his “Nen” technique.
The navy soldiers were completely unaware of Allan’s secret, shocked to see him apparently able to withstand bullets with his bare skin.
They stared at him in horror, as if they had just witnessed a ghost.
The Guard Captain struggled to his feet, his eyes locked onto Allan. “Is it Haki?” he asked, referring to the mysterious power that some individuals possess, allowing them to enhance their physical abilities to superhuman levels.
“Haki, huh?” Allan sneered coldly and said, “It’s not just Haki that can block bullets, your knowledge is still too shallow.”
The Guard Captain snorted and said “Don’t try to play me for a fool. I know a thing or two about Haki myself. You’re not the only one with tricks up your sleeve.”
“Oh, really?” Allan challenged. “Prove it then.”
The tension in the room was palpable as The Guard Captain and Allan faced off, each man determined to prove their superiority.
