Ultimate Fruit - Volume 1 Chapter 53 Brothers Reunite
DISCORD LINK: discord.gg/nTGxMXW
————————————————————–
Hearing his two little brothers call out to him, Sabo was also excited to finally have this reunion, however, the situation right now needs to be taken care of first.
Sabo grinned at the two.
“Yo, it’s been a long time but…I’m back!”
“…Un!!!”
Both Luffy and Ace tried hard not to break into tears but failed to do so. All they could do was nod furiously and not say anything.
“Well…as much as I want to talk with you guys right now…shall we deal with this guy first?”
As Sabo said that, Luffy and Ace wiped their tears and also looked at Magellan and the others with a grin.
All of a sudden, they felt like they wouldn’t lose at all!
“Yeah! Plenty of time to celebrate once we get out of this place!”
“Shishishi! Hanc.o.c.k! Are you okay?”
“A-ah! Yes, I’m fine d-d-d-dea.Ah! I can’t say it!”
“…”
Lucas stared at Hanc.o.c.k in shock. Just what did Luffy do to her!?
Ace and Sabo seemed to trip as well. They didn’t think that their youngest brother could…ahh, forget it! Comparing themselves with Luffy will only hurt them in the end!
Luffy, Ace, and Sabo stood side by side as they glared at the enemies on the opposite side.
Looking at the three of them, even Lucas got excited.
Finally! He never thought he would actually see these three brothers fight together!
Lucas smiled and stood beside Luffy.
“Luffy, I’ll deal with that lump of poison. You guys take care of that Vice Admiral.”
“No way! That purple guy looks the strongest, I’ll take him on!”
Luffy didn’t bother waiting for a response as he started with a dash.
Ace and Sabo knew how dangerous Magellan was so they chased after him. Lucas just smiled wryly as he can’t help but feel how familiar this is to when he was still sailing with the crew.
Well, I suppose I can just heal him if he does get poisoned.
While thinking as such, Lucas made a dash as well and confronted Magellan.
Vice Admiral Momonga didn’t like that he was being ignored so he swung his sword to intercept Luffy but another figure was faster than him.
Seeing Luffy being attacked, Hanc.o.c.k was angered and appeared in front of Momonga with a kick!
“Don’t get in my husband’s way!”
“Gh-!? Hanc.o.c.k!!!”
Luffy saw Hanc.o.c.k block and fight Momonga, he grinned and waved at her.
“Oh! Thanks Hanc.o.c.k!”
“Ahh! I l-l-lov…I can’t say it!”
“…”
Ace and Sabo once again stared at Luffy with half-closed eyes. Damn it! Stop flirting in the middle of a battle!
Even Magellan was angered that the beautiful Hanc.o.c.k was acting bashful to Luffy! He controlled the hydra poison above him and charged at Luffy.
Lucas turned to look at Ace and met his gaze as well. The two nodded and split up on both sides of Luffy.
“Hiken!”
“Mizuken!”
From the left side, a flaming fist. From the right side, a water fist. The two fists collided on each side of the hydra poison and exploded!
Sabo got in front of Luffy and put both of his hands on the ground.
“Dragon Breath!”
An invisible shockwave seemed to explode with Sabo at the center which pushed back the excess poison from the explosion.
Luffy jumped over Sabo and bit on his thumb.
“Candle!”
“A-ah! Right!”
Mr. 3 felt that all he can do now is to side with Luffy and the rest while they defeat Magellan. Only then can they actually get out of this place!
When he heard Luffy call out to him, he knew what he wanted to do so he released a large amount of candle and placed it on Luffy’s hand.
“Candle Lock!”
“Hone Fusen!”
With a blow on his thumb, his arm started to expand! The air then transferred to one arm then to where the candle arm is.
“Gomu gomu no…GIGANT HAMMER!!!”
“Venom Road!”
*BOOM!*
Just before Luffy’s attack reached him, Magellan created another hydra and used Venom Road to escape.
Still, Lucas was already aware of this as he appeared in front of Magellan.
2nd Degree: Boiling Man!
*Boom*
Lucas swung his fist at Magellan and activated his Armament Haki for a second as it hit Magellan’s face. The steam exploded upon contact and managed to blast Magellan to the air where Sabo was waiting.
Sabo swung down his hand that formed a dragon’s claw.
“Dragon Claw!”
*Boom*
Unlike Luffy and Ace, Sabo has already learned Haki and didn’t need to worry too much when he touches Magellan.
“Hibashira!”
Ace shouted as a fire pillar appeared beneath Magellan!
Magellan grimaced from the fire and shot a poison bubble at it.
“Chloro Ball!”
The fire and poison collided and exploded which released a poison mist in the air.
Lucas waved his hand and trapped the poison mist with his own steam which turned into a water bubble.
With a flick of a finger, Lucas threw this water bubble containing the poison mist at the unconscious Hannyabal!
Hmph! This is just a small payback for torturing me!
Magellan saw Hannyabal take his own poison, he was angered and stared daggers at Lucas.
Forget Luffy, I will deal with this brat first!
Lucas saw his look at grinned.
“What’s wrong Magellan, Can’t handle 4 brats?”
“Grr! Don’t get c.o.c.ky now!”
Magellan took off the two horns on his head and wore it in his hands. Seeing this, Lucas really thought how absurd he looked
Still, those horn gloves are deadly if he gets hit with it so it was better to avoid it.
Hm? Actually, does Magellan even know Haki?
Lucas thought for a moment then shook his head. It’s useless to compare the Magellan he’s facing to the one in the anime. This was reality now. And for Magellan to be the warden of Impel Down, it’s impossible for him not to have haki.
“Don’t forget about me! Gomu gomu no…Champion Rifle!”
While they weren’t looking, it seems that Mr. 3 had made Luffy a set of candle gloves and boots so he can attack Magellan.
Even Magellan was dumbfounded and couldn’t react in time, he was only able to block the attack by crossing his arms but it still managed to push him back.
Lucas laughed and started to release a huge amount of water to the floor until it almost reached their knees.
He turned to Jimbei who still hasn’t joined the fight and spoke.
“Jimbei, is this water enough?”
“Wahaha! This is plenty enough! Let me join this fight as well!”
Jimbei placed his hand on the water and flung it towards Magellan.
“Uchimizu!”
A small droplet was all it took but Magellan was still shot and started bleeding! Lucas looked at Jimbei and clicked his tongue.
“You gotta teach me Fishman Karate when we get out.”
“With pleasure!”
Magellan held on his bleeding shoulder and his face turned grim.
Momonga was still preoccupied with Boa Hanc.o.c.k and it looks like he can’t expect help from him anytime soon, which meant he had to face all five of these alone!
Just Lucas and Jimbei alone can already give him a hard time, add to that Fire Fist Ace, the 2nd in command of the Revolutionary Army Sabo, and Strawhat Luffy
Actually, Luffy isn’t a big problem if only that candle guy wasn’t here.
Magellan turned to look at Mr. 3 and gave him a glare.
Mr. 3 shivered and quickly hid behind buggy who also shivered when the glare transferred to him.
Looking at the antics of the two, Magellan sighed. He can’t deal with them now and avoid leaving a blind spot for the other five to attack.
Suddenly, he remembered something and looked at Hannyabal who was still writhing in pain from the poison and Domino who was trying to help Hannyabal.
“Domino, get out of here and contact HQ! I’ll hold them off in the meantime!”
“Y-yes sir!”
Lucas only gave her a glance and instantly reappeared in front of her.
With a chop to the neck, she was unconscious.
Actually, releasing water on the floor wasn’t just for Jimbei. With this water, he can practically be anywhere!
It’s like when Enel used the gold to transport himself, Lucas was using the water to easily appear in other places touched by the water.
Lucas looked at Magellan with a smirk.
“Do you really think I will let you?”
Magellan grimaced again and his eyes seemed to turn red.
“Enough! I will let you all see what it means to anger the Warden of Impel Down! Venom Demon!”
Suddenly, a huge red demon-like monster made of pure poison appeared. Even Lucas can tell that the poison this time isn’t something on the same level as the purple one before.
Looking at the demon as it expanded and the rubble it touches keep disintegrating, Lucas wondered if this was considered an awakening…if not, just how fearsome is he if he awakened?
Even the prisoners in this level started to back away from their cages, afraid that the poison would touch them and kill them!
“This ends now! JIGOKU NO SHINPAN!!!”
“Ha? Shimapan (Striped Panties)!?”
Lucas thought he heard it wrong, what the hell is this Magellan going on about saying striped panties all of a sudden!?
Magellan seemed to trip when he heard that and he turned to glare at Lucas for ridiculing him.
“DIE!!!”
“No thanks. Neptune’s Wrath!”
Lucas turned into a huge angry water god while still in his Boilingman form which made it look even fiercer!
The steam also turned into a hagoromo that floated behind his back. He didn’t mean for it to shape into that but it seems to just appear that way.
Something this big, Lucas isn’t able to maintain an Armament Haki for even half a second…but with his Observation Haki, he should still be able to time it well.
The poison demon and the water god clashed as shockwave erupted from it.
When the dust settled, Magellan was down on his knees and Lucas was panting while standing.
As expected, using haki on such a large surface really wasn’t easy
From the cages, Crocodile saw Magellan’s pathetic state and laughed.
“Kuhahahaha! The mighty warden Magellan, down on his knees! Now this is a sight!”
The other prisoners were also laughing at Magellan’s plight. Luffy seemed to be bothered by this and shouted at them.
“Shut up!”
The prisoners went silent for a moment then started laughing even louder. But this time, the laughter wasn’t directed at Magellan, rather, to Luffy instead.
“Hahahaha! Brat, how about you let us out of here and see if you can say that again huh?”
“Hahahaha, there’s something wrong with this guy’s brain!”
“Hahahahahaha!”
Lucas and the others frowned at them but didn’t bother making a move…well, Lucas wasn’t so patient.
Controlling the water beneath on his feet, he extended it to rise up to where the prisoners were and slowly send them all unconscious by drowning them.
“W-what is this!?”
“Bastard! Wait till I’m out! I’m gonna split that head of yours into two!”
The prisoners started to riot but eventually, they still drowned and fell one by one.
“No need to kill them, Lucas.”
“…I know, I’m just letting them sleep for a while.”
Lucas sighed and shook his head. Personally, he’d really rather kill them all right now and avoid any future troubles. At the same time, he was shocked that he was completely fine when he thought of doing a massacre so casually
Shaking his head, he focused on Magellan once more and spoke.
“It’s over, Magellan. Momonga is also defeated already. There are no reinforcements coming.”
“Kuh-! You…I won’t let you all…get away!”
Suddenly, everyone heard a loud explosion from above and the entire place seemed to shake.
*BOOM*
“What’s happening!?”
Buggy shouted as he was really afraid. At first, he and Mr. 3 were celebrating when they saw Magellan was defeated and Bon Clay also rejoiced along with them. But now, there were explosions at the upper levels…just what is going on!?
Then, they heard someone laughing with difficulty.
“Cough…ha…hahaha…bastard! I already…called for…reinforcements! See if you can…get out now!”
It was Hannyabal…he was holding onto a small denden mushi when everyone wasn’t looking.
Lucas frowned and gave him a kick to send him flying.
Sabo sighed.
“From the sound of things, it seems that an Admiral has also arrived…and called in a Buster Call.”
!!!
Buster Call!
Hearing these two words, everyone was badly frightened. Mr. 3 even started to foam in his mouth and faint from the shockof course, no one really cared about it.
But because of this, they needed to get away quickly!
“We need to go, now!”
Everyone nodded and started to run.
While escaping, it seemed that Crocodile called Bon Clay and asked him to wake Mr. 3 up to make a key for his seastone cage and cuffs.
Since they were once acquainted, Bon Clay was fine with it and considered it as repaying his debt with Crocodile.
But before they could go to Level 5, they met another obstacle in their path.
A dark figure in jet black robes wearing a white mask was holding onto Sadi, a blonde woman with revealing clothes, by the neck and the so-called Four Demons are also on the ground. It was unclear whether they are still alive or not.
Ace saw the darkness spreading on the ground. He knew what this power meant.
“That ability…it’s the same one Blackbeard had!”
Lucas was shocked. He didn’t think…that he would meet the new user of the Darkness Fruit right here!
The man seemed to notice them just now as he turned to look at Lucas.
“Oh…you’ve escaped…brother.”
“…Brother?”
Lucas frowned. What is this guy talking about?
The man paused for a moment then placed his hand over his mask as he revealed his face.
When everyone saw what he looked like, they were all surprised! But more so than them, Lucas was unable to understand what’s happening!
After all…that man…looked just like Lucas!
His hair was longer…and there were some scars on his face…but that appearance was definitely the same as Lucas.
“After seeing my face, do you still deny it, brother? I…thought I was alone…that I had no family left…turns out…I still have a brother in this world!!!”
The man started trembling. He tossed Sadi to the ground and seemed to be embracing himself to stop the trembling.
“Aaahhh! I even destroyed the floors to let your friend reach you faster! How is it!? Aren’t I a good brother!? Aren’t I thoughtful!? I am right!? Now, brother! Come join me!”
He stretched his hand to Lucas with his palm facing outwards.
“I have become the God of Death! And you also have an amazing power! They even called you the Reaper of the Seas! Together!”
A twisted grin could be seen on his face.
“LET’S GO AND PUT AN END TO THIS WORLD!!!”
