Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

The sixth floor of Impel City, infinite hell.

Jhin stood in the prison corridor holding Ziwu. The armor wrapped around him was a little damaged, and he stared straight ahead with sharp eyes.

Not far from him, two men were panting and looking at Jhin warily.

One of them was wearing black clothes and black armor, and around him, blood mixed with purple liquid kept dripping, corroding the ground with a "sizzling" sound.

A man wearing a navy cap, with a cigar in his mouth and a long black knife in his hand, his face was covered in blood, and he stared at Jhin fiercely.

These two people are none other than Magellan, deputy director of Impel Down, and Shiryu Yu, deputy chief warden.

"It's time to finish."

A fierce light flashed in Jin's eyes, and he quickly jumped in front of Magellan. Ziwu was wrapped in a layer of black flames and swung at Magellan.

"Venom blast."

Magellan's face was ferocious, his arms turned into giant purple fists, and purple liquid kept flowing, rushing towards Jin.

"die--"

Jhin's eyes opened wide, the flame on Ziwu's blade rose to another level, and with a "puff", the purple liquid was cut into two pieces by the sword, and Ziwu hit Magellan heavily.

Blood gushed out along with purple liquid, and Magellan was chopped and flew more than ten meters away, falling to the ground, his life or death unknown.

"It's your turn."

Jin carried Ziwu and walked towards Xilu of Rain step by step with a grim smile on his face.

"bring it on!"

Yuzhi Xilu used his knife to prop up his body, with the long knife across his chest, staring at Jin fiercely.

"Jin, stop it! This guy is not bad."

At this moment, accompanied by a chuckle, Barrett leaped in front of Jhin.

"Boss."

Jhin shouted with joy and came to Barrett.

Barrett smiled and patted Jin, then looked at Xilu of the Rain and said with a smile, "Xilu of the Rain, am I right?"

"Donghuang——"

Yuzhi Xilu's pupils shrank and he took a step back unconsciously.

Obviously, he is more afraid of Barrett than Jhin.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask you if you are interested in following me." Barrett chuckled.

Upon hearing this, not only Yu Xilu was stunned, but even Jin was stunned.

"why?"

After a moment's silence, Yu Shilu looked directly at Barrett, his eyes flickering, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

"Your sword needs blood, and you also need to fight. If you stay in the navy, you will only be restricted by the navy's various rules."

Barrett pointed at the long sword in Yuzhi Xilu's hand with a warm smile on his face.

"thunderstorm--"

Yu Zhixilu was startled, and looked down at the purple sword in his hand with a look of melancholy and nostalgia.

"How about it, are you willing to follow me? If you follow me, you can enjoy a refreshing battle, and your sword will also be full of blood, making you continuously stronger, so that you can control the sword instead of the sword controlling you."

Barrett continued speaking, his tone full of strong confidence.

He was not bragging. He communicated with Shimotsuki Ryuche frequently and had some understanding of the demon sword.

He is confident that he can help Yuzhi Xilu solve the hidden dangers of thunderstorms.

"The man controls the sword, the sword controls the man." Yu Zhi Xilu murmured, staring at the long sword in his hand infatuatedly, and said self-deprecatingly, "It turns out that all along, you have been controlling me, not me controlling you."

Yuzhi Xilu stood there blankly, as if he was in a trance.

"Boss, what's going on?" Looking at the dazed Xilu of Rain, Jin asked puzzledly.

"That sword is called Thunderstorm, and it's a demon sword." Barrett explained with a smile, and then pointed at Xiliu of Rain, "And he is gradually being influenced by the sword, and slowly becoming a sword slave."

"I was wondering if the fight just now was a little strange. So that's what happened."

Hearing this, Jin smacked his lips and looked at Yu Zhi Xilu pitifully. He also knew about the demon sword. Given Yu Zhi Xilu's condition, if he couldn't control the sword in his hand, he would indeed become a sword slave as Barrett said.

Even if he gains control later, he will be affected by the demon sword and his temperament will change drastically and he will no longer be the same as before.

"Knife slave."

Yuzhi Xilu's body trembled, and the long sword fell directly to the ground with a "ding" sound. He looked at the long sword with a trace of fear on his face.

"You shouldn't be afraid. The more you fear, the more it eats away at you."

Barrett took steps, one step at a time, towards Rain Shiryu.

Barrett picked up the long sword and grasped the hilt. The long sword shook violently, a red light flashed, and a layer of black gas surged out, quickly wrapping around Barrett, as if it was going to swallow Barrett.

"Be quiet." Barrett growled, and an extremely fierce aura burst out, and the thunderstorm seemed to be suppressed by something. The black air quickly dissipated, and in an instant the long sword returned to calm.

"You should hold it and make it surrender, not be afraid of it."

Then, Barrett handed the long sword to Xilu of Rain and looked at him with a smile.

"Should I hold it?"

Yu Zhi Xilu raised his head and stared at Barrett blankly, as if he was asking something, or talking to himself.

"You should take it." Barrett nodded.

"Yes, it is my knife, I should hold it."

Yu Zhixilu's gaze gradually became firm from confusion and fear.

Soon, Yu Zhi Xilu grasped the long sword, and the blade trembled violently, and a ball of black gas surged out, as if it was excited.

"Give me peace."

Yu Zhixilu growled, cold sweat continued to appear on his forehead and there was a hint of fear on his face.

"Whether you are the master of the knife or its slave, it all depends on you." Barrett whispered.

The voice was like a loud bell, instantly awakening Yu Xilu who was resisting fiercely.

The expression on Yuzhi Xilu's face calmed down, he closed his eyes and gripped the long sword tightly.

After a while, the black energy of the long sword enveloped Yu Xilu.

"Boss, is he okay?" Jin asked in surprise when he saw Xilu of Rain wrapped in black air.

"do not know."

Barrett shook his head and said, "If he can't even subdue a knife, then that's all he has accomplished in his life."

"However, if he is Xiliu of the Rain, I believe he should be able to subdue this sword."

Having said that, Barrett changed the subject and showed his strong confidence in Rain Shiryu.

According to the original work, Xilu of Rain also subdued the thunderstorm later, but at that time, his temperament was affected by the thunderstorm and became extremely bloodthirsty, but his own swordsmanship was also cut off.

However, it is different now. Rain Xilu is only about 20 years old and is not greatly affected by the thunderstorm. His plasticity is much stronger than in the future. Once he conquers the thunderstorm now, his character will be firm, and his future strength will definitely be much stronger than in the original.

Jhin didn't say much, but just looked at Xilu of the Rain deeply. After all, it was very rare for someone to be valued so much by Barrett.

A few minutes later, the black air on Yuzhi Xilu dissipated and the thunderstorm returned to calm.

Yu Zhi Xilu opened his eyes, a flash of red light passed through his eyes, and within a few breaths, his vision returned to clarity.

"Xilu, your swordsmanship is not good enough. When you go back, practice more basic swordsmanship."

Seeing that Yu Zhixilu was awake, Barrett patted his shoulder naturally.

"Let's go!"

As he spoke, Barrett strode towards the depths of the corridor.

Jhin smiled and nodded to Xilu of Rain, then quickly caught up with Barrett.

"A new beginning? Maybe it's a good choice."

Looking at the backs of Barrett and the other man as they left, Yuzhi Xiluo smiled, sheathed his Thunderstorm sword, and strode towards Barrett and the other man.

A few minutes later, Barrett and the other two arrived at the Infinite Hell detention center.

"Boy, who are you and why are you here?"

As soon as the three arrived, a domineering voice came from a cell.

The three looked in the direction of the voice and saw the person who was speaking was in the second cell. He had completely white hair and beard, a square head and big ears, and seemed a bit overbearing and arrogant.

"Who are you?" Jhin asked curiously.

"I'm Fire Fist Yak." The white-haired old man spoke arrogantly.

"The user of the Flame-Flame Fruit?" Barrett asked puzzledly.

"That's right." The white-haired old man said proudly, "I am a user who has eaten the Nature-type Flame-Flame Fruit."

"It seems that you won't live long, so why don't I do you a favor and send you off in advance."

Barrett chuckled. He didn't expect that the person with special abilities before Ace would appear in Impel Down. Judging from the plot, the person in front of him obviously won't live for many years.

"Asshole, what are you going to do?" The white-haired old man looked terrified and glared at Barrett.

"Incompetent barking." Barrett sneered and waved at Jin, "Jin, kill him first..."

"No, cripple him first and do an experiment later."

Barrett suddenly remembered that the Haimi discussion forum once said that when any devil fruit user dies, his fruit ability will randomly appear on the nearest fruit.

He also planned to give it a try to see if he could be reborn, so that he would have one more naturalist under his command.

"I'm sorry."

Jhin looked at the white-haired old man with a grin, raised his hand and clawed, the prison door broke, and "crack" the white-haired old man's limbs were broken.

"asshole--"

The white-haired old man stared at Jin with wide eyes in fear. The extreme pain made him break out in cold sweat.

"It's noisy--"

Jin glared at the white-haired old man in dissatisfaction, then punched the old man on the head.

The old man stared with his eyes wide open and fainted unwillingly.

"Captain, let me try next."

When Yu Zhi Xilu saw this, a red light flashed in his eyes and he licked his lips involuntarily.

"Xilu, call me boss from now on."

Barrett turned to look at Yu Shiliu and frowned, "You are not fit to kill now, because you have not completely subdued your sword and are still under its influence."

Yuzhi Xiliu was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes quickly regained clarity. Then he looked down at the thunderstorm tied to his waist and murmured, "Only I can control you."
