However, there were other reasons why Bai Town wanted to release these criminals with the key, not just to escape.
The fourth level of hell, the blazing hell.
"All of you, retreat. I'll deal with these guys.”
Suddenly, a voice rang out like thunder. The entire voice instantly covered the sound of the battle in the entire fourth level of hell.
"It's Deputy Director Magellan."
"Retreat, quickly retreat."
"Deputy Director Magellan is here. These criminals are definitely no match for him.”
Hearing this voice, almost everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of the voice. When they saw Magellan, who was as huge as a small giant, walking over with a gloomy face, the wardens who were left with only about a hundred people immediately revealed a trace of ecstasy. In the entire city, Magellan was the strongest except Leo. However, in terms of difficulty, Magellan was even more difficult to deal with than Leo. This was all because of Magellan's fruit ability.
Poisonous Fruit.
All the jailers retreated, and Bai Cheng and the others stopped their attacks. They did not pay attention to the jailers, and instead focused on Magellan.
"What should we do now? Magellan is here. Should we continue to attack or retreat?”
A criminal covered in blood looked at Magellan who was walking over and said in a deep voice,
"This guy's ability is very troublesome. If you're not careful, you'll be hit by the poisonous fruit's ability.”
"Indeed, this guy's ability is even more troublesome than Leo's.”
The rest of the criminals also spoke, and they all looked at Magellan with different eyes.
Body technique practitioners like them were most afraid of ability users with strange abilities, such as the Natural Element or the Superhuman Element like Magellan.
"Just like I said, you guys hold him back while I go find the key. As long as we get the key and release the criminal from the Infinite Hell, we will win this battle.”
To be honest, Bai Town didn't want to encounter such a troublesome person like Magellan unless it was absolutely necessary.
Although Magellan was not as strong as he would be twenty years later, the power of the Poisonous Fruit was too disgusting. His entire body was filled with poison, and even his breath was poisonous. Moreover, the poisonous gas was very powerful, and it could paralyze the nerves, cause pain, hallucinations, and even cause death.
Moreover, close combat was the most taboo when fighting Magellan. Once you engaged in close combat, even if Magellan didn't attack you, his breath would spread into the air. As long as you fought with him for a long time, you would be more or less affected.
"Urchiola, have you dealt with Leo?”
While talking to the criminals, Bai Cheng contacted Urchiola in his mind. Due to the guardian spirit, Bai Cheng and Urchiola's minds were connected, and they could communicate no matter where they were.
In the endless hell, dust filled the air. Under the ruins, Ulchiola glanced at Leo, who was half-kneeling on the ground and coughing up blood. Then, he muttered in his heart,
"Sir Bai Cheng, you can do it later.”
Upon hearing Urchiola's reply, Bai Cheng's voice was heard.""Alright, get rid of them as soon as possible. Also, after we finish off Leo, we'll open up the path between the Infinite Hell and the Scorching Hell.”
"Understood."
His voice was cut off.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Amidst the smoke and dust, Leo was half-kneeling on the ground, coughing violently. After so many battles with Urchiola, his body was covered in bruises and blood. Other than that, his internal organs were also damaged. If he did not receive treatment in time and continued fighting, even his physique, which he had trained for many years, would not be able to withstand it. He was not far from the gates of hell.
Was he really going to lie down here today?
No, if I lay down, no one in the entire city would be able to stop this guy.
If I were to lie down, the prestige that the city had built up over the years would be ruined because of this person.
Looking at Ulchiora who was not far away, Leo finally bit his lip and slowly stood up with his injured body. He knew that if he died, no one in the entire city could stop Ulchiora. By then, the escape plan of Bai Cheng and the others would succeed, and the prestige and reputation of the city would be greatly damaged.
"Do you still want to continue?" Seeing Leo slowly stand up, Ulchiola's eyes flickered.
"Hehe, of course we have to continue. I am the director of the city, the strongest person in the city.”
Leo's face turned red, and his facial muscles twisted, turning extremely ferocious."" Pushing into the city is a hell that no one can escape from, whether it's you or Bai Town. Even if you're stronger than me, I'll keep you here even if I have to die.”
After saying that, Leo suddenly said in a low voice,""Awakening."
As soon as he finished speaking, an aura that was several times or even dozens of times stronger than before gushed out from Leo's body. At the same time, Leo's body suddenly expanded.
Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters.
Soon, the height of the infinite hell was not high enough to support Leo's body. Leo's body directly crashed through the connecting ceiling of the sixth and fifth floor. After breaking through the ceiling, Leo's body was still expanding.
Finally, it stopped at 50 meters.
At this moment, Leo's huge body was covered in electric snakes. He looked like a lightning dragon that had walked out of a mythical world.
"It's actually an Awakened, Leo.”
"I didn't expect this old fellow to actually have a trump card up his sleeve.”
"There are less than ten aptitude users who can awaken. Leo is one of them.”
Looking at Leo, who was so huge that he could only look up at him, the criminal from the Infinite Hell was shocked.
Awakening was the ultimate skill of the Devil Fruit's ability user. The number of people who could reach this level could be counted on one hand in an era.
"Idiot!" In a certain cell, Golden Lion looked at Leo, who had turned into a living dragon, and a trace of disdain flashed across his eyes. He said in a low voice,
The awakening of abilities was powerful, but it also depended on the environment and the type of fruit.
This was because the awakening of each of the three demon fruits was very different.
"Die, Urchiola."
Sensing the endless power brought by the Awakened, Leo felt a trace of confidence in his heart. He immediately tore apart the ceiling of the fifth and sixth floors with both hands, and his pair of dragon eyes stared at Urchiola as he roared angrily.
His voice carried unconcealed anger and killing intent.
Ulchiola's expression did not change at all. His face was indifferent and his gaze was calm. He did not seem to be shocked or horrified by Leo's change.
Ulchiola pulled out his katana and whispered to Leo,""Awakened? It's a little similar to our Returning Blade.“
At this point, Urchiola muttered,""Return Blade."
As soon as he finished speaking, a substantial spiritual pressure immediately descended.
