Super Card System-Chapter 543: Nobody Gets Involved

While Momousagi led her troops to establish a defensive position on the fourth floor, a major battle broke out on the sixth floor of the prison!

Those imprisoned on the sixth floor were all super-heavyweight criminals. If one were to describe their bounties, they would conservatively estimate at least two hundred million berries, with no upper limit!

Anyone with a bounty lower than this amount didn’t even qualify to be locked up here!

However, among the remaining seventeen prisoners, Ian was particularly interested in the four individuals who were originally supposed to become companions of Blackbeard Teach.

There was Vasco Shot, Sanjuan Wolf, Avalo Pizarro, and the most notorious female criminal, Katerina. These four were the strongest in the sixth-floor prison! Although Ian didn’t know their exact bounties, he estimated they were probably around 500 million berries, possibly even higher than his own bounty!

While bounties weren’t always an accurate representation of strength, they served as a reference point. Dealing with this group alone would be quite troublesome for Ian.

Fortunately, Ian wasn’t alone. He had plenty of helpers, and they were equally powerful!

Jinbe faced off against the enormous giant Sanjuan. Jinbe was already tall, but compared to Sanjuan, he seemed like a mere speck, especially considering the cramped space of the prison.

Sanjuan’s colossal size brought with it tremendous destructive power. Although he wore specially made colossal seastone shackles, he wasn’t a Devil Fruit user, so the seastone only restricted his movements without affecting his own strength. He wielded the seastone shackles as weapons and fiercely attacked Jinbe.

Jinbe swiftly dodged, and Sanjuan’s hands pounded the ground, causing cracks to spread inch by inch. The massive tremors made it seem as if the entire Impel Down was shaking.

Sanjuan swung his hands again, and Jinbe dodged once more. However, this time, one of the sixth-floor inmates who was engaged in combat with Ian’s subordinates was unfortunately struck by Sanjuan’s arm. With a squishy sound, the inmate instantly turned into a pile of flesh upon impact! It was as if one had squashed a fat bug, with juices splattering everywhere…

At this moment, Sanjuan could only move his arms. His body was too large, and most of it was wedged in the cramped space of the sixth floor of the prison.

Frustrated by missing Jinbe twice in a row, Sanjuan wanted to stretch his body.

But this stretch caused cracks to form in the walls of the sixth-floor prison, and sand and rocks cascaded down, indicating that even the floor above might collapse.

“This is underwater; you can’t wreak havoc like this!” Jinbe observed the scene and halted his movements. He concentrated his energy, clenched his left fist at his waist, and then fiercely punched Sanjuan with his right fist!

“Three Thousand Tile Straight Fist!”

Boom! With Jinbe’s punch, the surroundings trembled, and the force dispersed the air, like a shell blasting through space, directly striking Sanjuan’s… groin!

There was no other way. Sanjuan was squatting, and Jinbe’s stature was simply too small for him. This punch could only reach this particular spot…

When Sanjuan was hit, his eyeballs nearly popped out!

Jinbe’s punch wasn’t a joke. At that moment, the force sent Sanjuan, who was squatting, crashing to the ground.

However, Jinbe didn’t let up. He followed through with successive Straight Fists, all targeting the same spot…

Ian was sweating profusely as he watched this scene unfold. It was the first time he realized that being too large was definitely not a good thing!

Seeing Jinbe seemingly intent on smashing his opponent’s groin to death, Ian couldn’t bear to watch anymore. He shifted his gaze towards Crocodile’s battle.

Crocodile’s opponent was the Heavy Drinker, Vasco Shot. Though also a towering giant, he paled in comparison to Sanjuan. However, Crocodile encountered a bit of trouble choosing him as his opponent because he had never anticipated that Shot would have alcohol on him!

Crocodile wasn’t sure if the prison provided alcohol to the inmates or if it was Shot’s Devil Fruit ability, something related to the “Glug-Glug Fruit,” and the alcohol was actually stored using his abilities.

In any case, the gourd of alcohol that Shot carried caused quite a bit of trouble for Crocodile.

Initially, Crocodile planned to use his sand-based abilities to dehydrate Shot, quickly ending the fight. However, Shot found a weakness in Crocodile’s sand. He filled himself with alcohol, preventing Crocodile from dehydrating him effectively. Then, he engaged Crocodile while twisting the gourd of alcohol, and his attacks were fierce. With each movement, the alcohol splashed out, severely disrupting Crocodile’s performance.

“Hey, Old bag of Sand! Can you handle this?” Ian couldn’t help but shout, “If not, let me handle it!”

“Even if I join your pirate crew now, you’re not allowed to interfere in my fights!” Challenged by Ian in this way, Crocodile was also somewhat annoyed and replied without looking back.

Ian shrugged, shifted his gaze, and then saw Trafalgar Law and Urouge, along with their pirate crews, engaging in a fierce battle with Catarina.

This most ferocious female criminal, Catarina, lived up to her reputation. Due to wearing seastone handcuffs, it was temporarily unclear if she had a Devil Fruit ability. However, this heavily made-up woman surprisingly possessed considerable Haki proficiency. Faced with the combined attacks of Law and Urouge, she relied on the black-armored Haki covering her entire body to withstand them.

Ian noticed that Law’s Devil Fruit ability couldn’t cut through Caterina’s body!

While this was partly because Law currently lacked Haki’s abilities, from this point, Catarina was at least not weaker than Vergo, who Ian had defeated before!

However, after observing for a while, Ian found that Law’s group had no problems because Urouge was exceptionally resilient. Every counterattack from Catarina was almost taken on by Urouge, and his Devil Fruit ability seemed to amplify his retaliatory force the more Catarina struck him.

Compared to these heavy offenders in the sixth level of the prison, except for Crocodile and Jinbe, the rest of Ian’s group was somewhat lacking in power. However, their advantage lay in being able to utilize Devil Fruit abilities, while their opponents could not. This balanced the gap between them and their opponents to some extent.

So, in Ian’s view, victory was only a matter of time.

So, Ian’s gaze shifted towards Zoro.

Luffy, Sanji, Buggy, and Mr. 3 were currently fighting with the other prisoners from the sixth level, leaving Zoro and Shiryu to duel.

This was Zoro’s request, so Luffy and the others had no intention of intervening.

However, there was quite a gap between Zoro and Shiryu at the moment. When Ian looked at him, he noticed that Zoro already had several long wounds on his body, and he was panting heavily.

These were all inflicted by Shiryu during their recent clash…

The wounds weren’t too deep, probably a result of Zoro desperately protecting himself when he was struck, but they were still bleeding, exacerbating Zoro’s physical exertion.

Yet, even with such injuries, Zoro’s eyes still burned with determination!

“Three Sword Style: Oni Giri!”

Zoro charged forward, crossing his swords and slashing violently towards Shiryu. At the same time, the sword held in his mouth swung along with his head, delivering another strike!

Shiryu, wielding his demonic blade emitting a red glow, intercepted Zoro’s three-sword cross slash, pressing down on Zoro’s attack. However, he was pushed back a few steps by Zoro’s force.

“Get lost, brat!” Shiryu exerted force and swung his sword horizontally, pushing Zoro away.

Zoro was sent flying, but he rolled upon landing, planted his feet firmly on the ground, then leaped forward again, aiming another strike at Shiryu.

“Tora Gari: Tiger Hunting!!” freёwebnoѵel.com

However, as they passed each other, another bloodied gash appeared on Zoro’s chest upon landing, while Shiryu remained unscathed!

At the moment when Zoro made his move, Shiryu seized upon his vulnerability and struck him once again.

Zoro tried to get up, but as he did, he stumbled, the loss of blood making him slightly dizzy.

Seeing this, Ian couldn’t help but frown, his hand resting on the hilt of his Senbonzakura, ready to intervene.

However, as if knowing Ian’s intentions, Zoro spoke out without looking back, “Ian, don’t intervene!”

Ian halted, furrowing his brow. “Zoro, you’re not his match right now…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Zoro cut him off, “I know! But I must fight!”

With his back to Ian, Zoro stood tall, unlike ever before. He continued, “Ian, I swore to become the greatest swordsman in the world! I won’t live in the shadow of you and Kuina forever. If you interfere in my battles, I’ll never forgive you for the rest of my life…”

Though Ian couldn’t see Zoro’s eyes at this moment, he could imagine the determination in them.

This stubborn brat had always been defiant since childhood, so when Ian heard his words, he realized his resolve and silently let go of the hilt of his sword, saying, “If you fall in battle, I’ll avenge you!”

“I won’t give you that chance!” Zoro grinned without facing Ian, then slightly crouched down, gripping his sword tightly.

Then, Ian saw the air around Zoro distort, and his two swords seemed to tremble and shake!

“Enbima Yonezu Oni Giri: Nightless!”

With a roar, Zoro’s entire body shot forward like an arrow towards Shiryu…
