Luffy continued staring at Magellan.
"Are you going to fight him, captain?" Zoro asked.
"Yes..." Luffy replied as he watched Magellan begin to transform his body into venom, expanding it into a gelatinous layer.
"What is that...?" Nami asked.
"Stay back, he is the user of the Doku Doku no Mi, the poison fruit. He can be fatal to anyone." Luffy said in a serious tone.
"Do you think you can touch me?" Magellan said seriously as layers of purple venom surrounded his body. The soldiers around him started to back away, running in the opposite direction, leaving only Luffy and the prison director in that area. The same could be said for the pirates obeying their captain.
Luffy looked at him with a calm gaze before changing to a more serious look, simply exploding the ground below him the next moment as he disappeared. "Of course I can." Luffy suddenly said, appearing in front of Magellan, and before he could react, Luffy punched him in the stomach, his fist coated in Armament Haki.
The punch sank into that area, and Magellan felt immense pain, flying backward, unable to believe he was being hit so directly.
He flew like a kite before the soldiers behind him could react, feeling enormous pain in the struck area and crashing into the prison wall. "Ahhh, run!" The soldiers quickly began to flee to avoid getting caught in the conflict.
"Hey Luffy, he's made of venom, are you okay hitting him like that?!" Nojiko exclaimed from a distance with concern.
"It's fine, my body is of a mythical Zoan, I can easily resist the venom before defeating him..." Luffy said as his Haki-coated hand started to burn with the acid of the venom, but he didn't seem bothered by it.
Magellan emerged from the broken wall, glaring at Luffy with anger, a line of blood beginning to trickle down his face as he felt sharp pain, falling to his knees the next moment and spitting saliva after the impact of Luffy's punch.
"If you don't do better than that, you won't protect this prison, Magellan." Luffy commented calmly.
"..." Magellan continued spitting until he finally looked at Luffy with a fiercer tone and began to stand up. "I will stop you. You will not enter my prison!" He exclaimed as a large amount of venom began to expand from his body, starting to grow and form a multi-headed beast above him.
"So big!" Yamato commented from a distance.
"What is that?" Shirahoshi asked.
"This is getting dangerous..." Vivi commented.
"Hugo, use your powers to protect everyone." Luffy requested and continued. "Not even Armament Haki can stop the effects of the venom." He finished before looking back at Magellan with a serious look. This was the strongest power of his Akuma no Mi, Hydra. He had another level as his venom turned red, which Luffy considered his awakened state.
"Take this!" Magellan said before one of the Hydra's three heads lunged at him, exploding on the ground where Luffy was and spreading venom everywhere. Above the space, Luffy appeared untouched by the venom.
Another Hydra head started rushing towards Luffy, who quickly propelled himself with his foot, escaping the second attack while cartwheeling sideways and beginning to fly with the third head trying to catch him, escaping by kicking away and dodging the drops of venom spreading around.
Luffy seemed to have no difficulty while maintaining a calm face, looking at Magellan creating a new head as he raised his hand before launching another head at Luffy.
He backflipped, dodging the attack while clenching his fist, a large amount of flames starting to accumulate, before he launched it at an opening that had been created, and a line of fire traveled towards Magellan, who put the Hydra's body in front of him to protect himself as the fire exploded on the venom.
BOOOOOOOOM!!!
Luffy put a large amount of power into this attack as it exploded, breaking all the corridor walls and making the first floors tremble while people tried to figure out what was happening.
The walls began to emerge as Magellan took advantage of the smoke and started to release a poisonous breath into the air to catch Luffy while a large part of the Hydra was destroyed, but Magellan remained untouched.
"You're aiming in the wrong direction." A voice emerged behind him, making Magellan look with stunned eyes, while Luffy, using his hybrid form, calmly stood a few meters away from Magellan with flames burning tranquilly on his body.
Magellan tried to turn around when he saw the punch coming at him again, covering his body with venom to protect himself, but Luffy did not stop. He penetrated the man's gelatinous layer, pushing through until reaching Magellan's face with increased force.
Luffy struck him as the space between his fist and the director's face began to distort. Before Magellan could fly backward, Luffy moved away since his punch had started to spread venom over him and he did not want to be hit.
Luffy disappeared, and the sound of breaking bones was heard as Magellan simply vanished from within his venom, shooting through the mist of venom he had created and crashing through several prison walls.
BOOOM!!
BOOOM!!
BOOOM!!
BOOOM!!
He passed through four walls before finally stopping in the middle of the first floor.
"What is happening?!" A guard in the area where Magellan flew asked, frightened, while holding his rifle ready.
"We have to get out of here! The pirates are attacking!" Another said, and they finally saw Magellan with his face bleeding, lying on the ground, but his eyes were still open, filled with pure rage, as his face was now a bloody pulp.
"I will destroy them!" He shouted, and an explosion of red venom began to emerge in that area, expanding until it formed a giant skeleton with Magellan, using what Luffy called his awakening.
"It looks like a venomous Susanoo..." Luffy commented while watching the thing emerge from a distance with all the prison guards fleeing from there.
The venom in this state was corrosive, wherever it dripped, it began to disintegrate, which was happening to the floor.
"Hey, that's dangerous..." Alvida said.
"I wouldn't want my swords touching that..." Zoro murmured as well.
All the Straw Hats were watching the situation from a distance with the walls of the place destroyed.
Magellan looked at Luffy and his companions, launching a direct attack among them while a fist of red venom was released from the skeleton, flying towards them in a large area.
"Nee, this is bad!" Hachi exclaimed.
"I'll take care of the fist, just protect yourselves so the venom doesn't touch you!" Luffy said from a distance.
"Leave it to me." Hugo said as he began to create a stone barrier to prevent it from touching them.
Luffy faced the attack more directly, launching another line of fire with a punch against that other fist. He used the Moa Moa no Mi to further increase the size of that attack, creating a fist of flames as well.
The red venomous fist and purple flaming fist collided, the prison, already in bad shape on its surface with ships still burning and several parts of the structure broken and demolished by Luffy's fight, experienced an even bigger explosion than all the previous ones as the fists incapacitated each other, exploding all the other walls around while its top began to crumble, spreading flames and venom everywhere.
Hugo completed his barrier as the venom hit it, but it soon started to corrode, spreading on the ground. "We need to get out of here." He said as everyone began to use Geppo to avoid being hit. All the Straw Hats were in the air watching the battle while Luffy had left the prison through the hole created in the roof from the impact to escape the venom.
"You shouldn't have involved my crew in this conflict... Magellan..." Luffy commented, looking at him with a bit of disappointment.
Magellan didn't seem to care, staring at Luffy with the same tone as before, still with his face bleeding. "I will kill them!" He said and began to launch another attack towards his companions, who quickly started to fly upwards, escaping the red venom that destroyed even more of the prison's upper part. The guards were heading to the second level, fleeing the chaos, as Magellan was destroying everything, even the communication room no longer existed, and with the connection interrupted, he didn't mind destroying everything to prevent Luffy from advancing into the prison.
"Hey Luffy, can I cut him? He's attacking us!" Lami complained in the air.
"Leave him to me." Luffy requested, deciding to end the fight while Magellan looked up at the sky in frustration. Luffy raised his hands and began to create a ball of fire that expanded each moment, growing to a diameter of 20 meters.
"Take this." Luffy said before throwing it at Magellan below him, who quickly used the venomous skeleton to protect himself from the attack.
A blinding light emerged, dazzling everyone in the area to the point that if the marine ships were still before the Gate of Justice, they could see the light appearing on the horizon. The explosion began to consume everything, blowing up the rest of the prison on the surface, while the chaos spread to the rest of the prison, causing it to tremble. Even the infamous criminals on level 6 felt the strong tremor in Impel Down, making them wonder what was happening.
In the midst of that chaos, the director appeared with part of his body burned, while there were no more walls around him. His prison was destroyed in that part. "This..." Magellan was frustrated while maintaining his awakening, with the skeleton beginning to regenerate again.
The ground cracked in front of him as Luffy landed, still maintaining his hybrid form. "It was a good fight, but let's end this." Luffy said calmly while Magellan looked at him, wondering what he would do.
"You may have protected yourself from the explosion, but this ends here." Luffy said as he took his pistol and pointed it at him, firing the next moment while the bullet gained 90 times the properties. Luffy used a real bullet instead of his flames for the first time in that weapon.
The bullet fired as Magellan used the skeleton to protect himself, but the bullet was so fast that its penetration power had increased, passing through the entire venom layer before it could start to corrode.
Magellan only felt a sharp pain in his right chest and looked down to see blood gushing out, making him look stunned as his venom seemed to return to normal. Losing strength and dissipating the skeleton, he fell to his knees on the ground a moment later.
"You're lucky I have no reason to kill you, but don't meddle in my business anymore. Stay quiet, and you'll survive." Luffy said while Magellan looked at him stunned and couldn't see Luffy knocking him out the next moment with a Haki-infused fist, making the Impel Down director collapse unconscious, with blood still flowing from his right chest, as Luffy didn't aim for his heart, only breaking his face.
"Luffy!" Robin approached Luffy, looking at his hands that still had venom on them.
"It's okay." Luffy shrugged, shifting out of his hybrid form and back to normal. He looked at his companions and called one of them. "Reiju, I need you to use the phoenix regeneration on me." He requested as she nodded.
Luffy recovered while his companions were in an area not affected by the venom, as the whole place was scattered with it.
"You destroyed all of Impel Down, Luffy!" Usopp cried as the place was open to the sky, with the entire structure crumbling.
"Yes, I didn't expect to fight Magellan so soon, but we were lucky not to do it in the submerged part of the prison..." Luffy commented, looking at all the destruction he caused.
"What do we do now, demon?" Enel asked.
"We're going to invade the prison... we don't even need someone to anticipate ships coming from Marineford as soon as they notice something strange. After all, everyone can see the top of the prison demolished." Luffy reasoned, not caring if the marines sent reinforcements, as he still had to worry about the war at HQ.
"Let's go, to the first level!" Luffy announced, heading for the stairs that descended, leaving Magellan fallen there. He had some interesting things on the first floor, one of which was to see if Buggy was there, as he had something precious on him at that moment.
