One Piece: Start as a mythical beast, practice to become stronger

"Thief hahahaha..."

A burst of arrogant laughter rolled out like thunder in the depths of the dark and damp prison. Before the sound stopped, the air in the entire prison seemed to be frozen.

There was a wildness in his laughter, as if it wanted to crush all the forces standing in its way.

The prison walls trembled slightly at the sound, which made people feel cold.

"I didn't expect so many people would come to welcome me, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!!!"

Blackbeard approached with a carefree and relaxed pace, like a giant beast walking in his territory.

He had an arrogant smile on his face and his eyes were slightly narrowed, as if he didn't take the guards and jailers seriously at all.

The two huge arms slowly opened to both sides, as if the whole world was under his control.

At that moment, he was like an emperor ruling the world, with boundless momentum, making everyone present breathe heavily.

"stop!!!"

The jailers' voices were almost trembling with command, the muzzles of their guns were pointed mercilessly at the exit, and sweat was running down their foreheads.

Facing this notorious man at sea, their hearts were filled with fear and uneasiness.

Even though they were holding weapons in their hands, their hands were shaking slightly, as if the darkness before them would swallow up everything they had.

Blackbeard sneered, as if he had heard an extremely funny joke.

What responded to them was not stopping, but he threw a figure forward without any warning.

The heavy body drew an arc in the air and fell heavily to the ground. The jailers saw the figure clearly and exclaimed: "Director Magellan!!!"

At that moment, fear surged from their hearts like a tide, sweeping across the entire cell.

The jailers were thrown into confusion for a moment. They rushed forward anxiously and tried to help Magellan up from the ground.

However, just as they approached, several sharp gunshots echoed in the narrow space.

The bullets flew through the air with ruthless murderous intent, accurately hitting the prison guards who tried to approach.

Life was ruthlessly ended in an instant, blood bloomed in the air like petals, and splashed on the cold ground. The eyes of the jailers gradually dimmed in pain, and their bodies fell to the ground powerlessly.

"Thief hahahahaha..."

Blackbeard's laughter rang out again, this time even more wild and harsher.

He stood beside the pool of blood, as if this tragic scene was just a joke in his repertoire.

"Want to save people? Have you ever asked me!!!"

His voice was full of bloodthirsty pleasure, and his cold eyes scanned the surroundings like a predatory beast, staring at the prey that tried to resist.

At this time, Blackbeard, wearing that heavy coat, slowly walked out of the dark prison.

Every step seemed to announce the coming of death.

Behind him followed the pirates who made the sea tremble. They were the symbols of darkness and the most terrifying predators on this sea.

Their eyes, like Blackbeard's, were filled with undisguised arrogance and contempt, as if the world had been trampled under their feet.

At this moment, a voice as cold as a blade came slowly from the back of the crowd. Although the voice was not loud, it carried a chilling majesty: "Seven Warlords of the Sea? No, you are not anymore."

As the sound rang out, everyone turned around and looked towards the source of the sound.

The mood of the sailors seemed to be ignited at that moment, and a fanatical belief and fighting spirit appeared in their eyes. It was a kind of reverence and trust in absolute power.

A tall figure walked out of the shadows, his posture straight as a pine tree, his face as cold as a knife, his steps steady and powerful, as if with unshakable determination.

His appearance was like an invisible oppressive force that instantly enveloped the entire scene. The air seemed to become heavy, and even the pirates standing behind Blackbeard couldn't help but tighten their weapons, with a hint of vigilance and uneasiness in their eyes.

"Thief hahahaha..."

Blackbeard's laughter echoed again. Although he was as arrogant as ever, there was a cold light flashing in his eyes, so cold that it made people shudder.

The corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer, and his gaze fell on Jin An like a venomous snake, "You are the new admiral of the navy, Qinglong Jin An, right?"

There was a hint of tentativeness and contempt in his voice, as if he was waiting for the other party's reaction.

Although Blackbeard was smiling, there was no trace of smile in his deep eyes, which were cold and ruthless.

He stood there, like an indestructible mountain, not caring at all about Jin An's appearance.

He raised his chin slightly and continued in a nonchalant tone: "I sent two Whitebeard captains to the World Government, so it's normal for me to come here and take some people away."

Jin'an's eyes flickered slightly, as if he found Blackbeard's words interesting.

His eyes slowly swept over the pirates behind Blackbeard, his expression still stern, without a trace of fluctuation.

However, none of this escaped Blackbeard's eyes.

Seeing this, Blackbeard raised his mouth into an even more sinister smile, revealing his sharp teeth, and grinned, "Don't look at them. I will keep them here forever since they are of no use to me."

His tone was full of malice and coldness, as if declaring that the deaths of those people were a foregone conclusion and there was no room for reversal.

Jin An did not reply. His face was still as cold as ice, and his eyes were as calm as the abyss as he stared at Blackbeard, as if he could see through him completely.

He remained calm, but the invisible pressure gradually intensified, like the calm before the storm, making one's heart beat faster.

His silence seemed to be building up momentum, and any words became redundant because the actions that followed would answer everything more powerfully than words could.

Blackbeard also stopped laughing, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere, as if a fierce confrontation would break out in the next second.

"We don't have time to play house with you here..."

Blackbeard's laughter stopped abruptly, and a shadow slowly floated out from behind him.

The golden lion came with its innate fierceness.

His appearance made the prison more solemn, and his sharp eyes like a falcon locked onto Jin An who was standing in front.

"Oh? Boy, we meet again."

The golden lion raised his head slightly, with a playful look in his eyes.

He had seen Jinan from afar during the defense of Marinford. At that time, Jinan was just a young sailor who had just shown his potential.

When we meet again today, Jinan has become a naval admiral and his power should not be underestimated.

Although the two did not fight, the invisible pressure was faintly colliding in the air at this moment, as if any slight movement could cause fierce sparks.

Jin An did not respond immediately, his calm gaze slowly moved between Golden Lion and the other pirates.

Facing these powerful and notorious warriors on the sea, there was not a trace of fear in his eyes, as if these notorious pirates were just chess pieces in front of him.

At the same time, Kaido, who was standing aside, narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on Jin An.

When enemies meet, their eyes turn red. Kaido's murderous intent had long been ignited. They had fought to the death in the last battle, and that battle made him even more eager to avenge his previous humiliation.

He moved his fingers slightly, and his knuckles made a slight crackling sound, obviously suppressing the impulse in his heart.

But even so, Kaido still retained a bit of rationality and knew that now was not the time to act rashly.

The Golden Lion snorted, a hint of ridicule appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was relaxed and cold: "How about we make a deal, let me go, and I won't care about the others, how about it?"

There was a hint of provocation in his eyes, but more of it was confidence in his strength.

Kaido then spoke up, his voice low and bloodthirsty: "Me too."

Jin An looked at these two giants who were making great waves on the sea, his expression remained calm.

He slowly spread out his hands, his tone calm, as if their proposal had not shaken him in the slightest: "That is not something I can decide. Whether you can escape depends on your ability."

The indifference in his words instantly pushed the atmosphere to a tense peak again.

The eyes of Golden Lion and Kaido became sharper in an instant, and the momentum of both sides seemed to be competing invisibly at this moment. The strong sense of oppression made the temperature in the air begin to drop.

However, Jin An didn't care at all, as if he was not the one standing in the center of the vortex. His fingers tapped lightly on the weapon at his waist with a bit of nonchalant ease.

"Friendly reminder," Jin An added lightly, with a hint of amusement in his tone, "The Five Elders are heading this way."

This sentence was like a heavy rock dropped into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples.

The Golden Lion's expression changed slightly, and Kaido's eyes turned colder in an instant.

The Five Elder Stars - this name is enough to shock the entire world. Even strong people like them have to think twice when facing the threat of the Five Elder Stars.

In fact, what they fear most is the military strength of the World Government.

Jinan's eyes were still as calm as water.
