236. I own you here
"For once in a while, I believe the criminals of Level 6," a loud voice rang through Level 6, and it wasn't one of the prisoners of Level 6. Jinbe and Ken turned their heads and looked in the direction of the voice.
There was a tall and menacing man standing a few meters away from them. He wore a black overcoat just like Shiryu, sharp teeth like Bartolomeo, and horns like a Devil. Of course, this was the famous and probably one of the most powerful wardens that Impel Down had ever seen—Magellan.
Jinbe had his eyebrows squinted when he saw Magellan. He didn't exactly fear him, but he felt a little anxious seeing him. Behind him were Hannyabal and other wardens of various Levels like Sadie.
"Ken-kun, I think we should leave now."
"We will," Ken replied, smiling at Magellan.
"I was doing you a service, Magellan. These criminals deserve death anyways," Ken replied. Slowly, Hannyabal and others were surrounding him with their guns in hand, and Jinbe slowly crept towards Ken, turning his back on him so that Ken wouldn't be sneak-attacked, not that it mattered to Ken anyways.
"That's not for you to decide," Magellan said as his body slowly gave off purple-colored steam. This was the effect of his venom venom fruit. This was one of the most broken fruits of the world if one didn't have the antidote to it.
"Oh! Then who is to decide who gets the axe and who gets freedom? You? Or the World Government? The same World Government which lets the Celestial Dragons keep people around as pets and allows some of the worst criminals to walk free like it is nothing. Doesn't that infuriate you, my dear Magellan?" Ken said.
"Punisher Kenny, you have nowhere to run to. Surrender immediately so that I can become the ward... I mean, so that justice can prevail." Ken turned around and looked at Hannyabal deeply, the one who desperately wanted to be the warden of Impel Down. Ken didn't like this guy at all and proceeded to use Conqueror's Haki on him specifically.
Soon, sweat beads trickled down Hannyabal's face, and in a moment's notice, he was on his knees, panting and feeling out of breath. The others around instantly shot at Ken, but the bullets seemed to do nothing to him as his body was way too tough for a normal bullet to do anything.
"He has Conqueror's Haki?" Jinbe was surprised but smiled. Magellan, too, was astonished by this, and now he was more determined to catch him. He was late in reaching Level 6. By the time he reached Luffy, Sabo, and a few men had already escaped. Thankfully, Punisher Kenny was here, and in no way he would let him get away.
Seeing Ken engaged with Hannyabal, Magellan attacked.
"Venom Hydra!"
Vicious serpentine tendrils of poison shot towards Ken.
"Jinbe! Get away. I will handle him," Ken shouted as he dodged Magellan's attack, maneuvering through the paths at incredible speed. Jinbe, being clever, jumped back a few meters. He wanted to help, and that could be done by taking out these small-time wardens.
"Shinra Tensei."
An awe-inspiring force sent a devastating shockwave towards Magellan. The venom that was being thrown at Ken was getting splattered all around.
"A devil fruit?" Magellan, seeing his attack getting away from Ken, creased his eyebrows. His attack was only life-threatening if it touched the body of his enemy. This was not what he expected.
But he wasn't going to back down just because someone easily countered his venom attack.
"Hell's Judgment!"
Magellan followed up by creating a rain of deadly poison that fell upon Ken.
"You don't learn from your mistakes, do you?" Ken said as the rain falling upon him seemed to encounter some kind of barrier. In the next second, the venom droplets flew away, falling upon Magellan's subordinates. Ken also made sure that Jinbe wasn't hurt by his attack and that the venom only fell upon his enemies. The enemies cried out in pain. Though they had the antidote to his attack, that didn't mean the venom wouldn't affect them.
Magellan was appalled. How was he going to defeat this guy if he couldn't even touch him? There must be some kind of loophole in his gravity manipulation. Unyielding, Magellan unleashed his ultimate technique.
"Venom Demon: Hell's Verdict."
He transformed into a gargantuan, nightmarish demon made of pure poison, his toxic aura spreading all over the place. Jinbe had already taken care of most of the men, but when he saw the demonic figure of Magellan, he felt unsettled. He didn't know that Magellan was this powerful. Ken looked up and saw the devilish face of Magellan.
He roared in ferocity. Ken lifted his palm and pointed it at Magellan's body, whispering.
"Chibaku Tensei."
Magellan waited for any kind of movement, but he didn't notice any change. Not giving any chance to Ken, he used his hydra snakes to attack him, but as the snakes came forward, the ground started to shake. The shaking was very mild at the beginning, but soon it became intense. Ground parts started to move upward and get attached to Magellan's body. At first, the parts were very small, but the bigger parts also came charging in.
Magellan wanted to get rid of the sticky floor parts, but he was unable to do so. It was as if he was a magnet to everything in the surrounding. At first, it was the floor pieces, then the chains around him floated up and wrapped around him.
"Punisher Kenny, what is this?" Magellan roared as he sent a flurry of attacks, but they couldn't even reach Ken, and he was slowly getting drowned under the pieces of surroundings. He was getting suffocated slowly.
"Ask the Vice-Admirals, maybe they will explain how they lost some of their limbs. Remember Magellan, I own you here. Not the World Government, not the Admirals, and not the Navy. Fear me before you fear them," Ken said.
