Without stepping foot in Level 5.5, the three of them opened a direct path to Level 6. But as they reached the entrance, they were met by Director Magellan. Magellan had taken an elevator straight down, which was naturally faster.
However, Magellan wasn't the only one blocking their way. He was accompanied by a swordsman, the former Head Jailer, Shiryu of the Rain. This man would later become the captain of the Blackbeard Pirates' second ship, and he was a truly formidable foe.
"Heh heh heh..." Shiryu, who had a cigar clenched between his teeth, gave a cold smile. "Magellan, are these the ones you couldn't handle? You had to let me out?"
"Hmph!" Magellan scoffed. "The opponent is very strong. Don't get careless!"
Upon seeing the two of them, Buggy gulped nervously. He turned to Ikki and asked, "Hey, brother, can you make me smaller? I really don't want to get involved in your fight!"
Ikki just smiled and pointed at Shiryu. "He can't kill you, so what are you so afraid of?"
Buggy glanced at Shiryu and his unsheathed long sword, thinking to himself, "You're right, what do I have to be afraid of? I ate the Chop-Chop Fruit..." But then he remembered Magellan's Venom-Venom Fruit and got scared all over again.
"Oh, I'll pass on that," Buggy said with a shake of his head. "I'll just hang back and provide support from behind!" With that, he scurried off to hide.
Once Buggy was safely hidden, Evil Thoughts Ace turned to Ikki. "Shiryu is yours. I'll take Magellan."
Before Ikki could even respond, Ace charged forward, heading straight for the director.
Magellan saw him coming and quickly coated his body in a purple, viscous liquid. He liked enemies like Aceâthe reckless type who got up close and personal. Such opponents usually met a gruesome end in front of him.
"Poison Dragon!" Magellan roared, and a dragon made of venom shot out to bite Ace.
But Ace didn't dodge. Instead, he let his body turn into a purple slime. When the poisonous dragon struck him, a large amount of venom was simply absorbed by his body.
"Transform into poison slime!"
When Ace reappeared, his entire body was a purple slime. He had transformed into a living poison and Magellan's venom had no effect on him at all. Magellan stared at him in shock.
Not willing to give up, Magellan coated his sword in Armament Haki and swung it at Ace's waist, slicing him in half. Magellan was surprised his attack was so effective. But the next scene shocked him even more.
After being split in two, Evil Thoughts Ace's halves merged back together in the blink of an eye. Then, Ace coated his own fist in Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki and delivered a brutal punch to Magellan's gut. Magellan, who had been holding in his bowels, immediately soiled himself.
But that wasn't the time to worry about such things. Magellan looked at Evil Thoughts Ace, utterly stunned. "Are you a Logia-type Poison-Poison Fruit user?" he stammered.
Magellan himself was a Paramecia-type user of the Venom-Venom Fruit, but the form Ace had just taken was clearly that of a Logia, and he also possessed the same poison abilities. Magellan couldn't wrap his head around it.
Evil Thoughts Ace didn't have time to explain his Devil Fruit to him. His only goal was to beat his enemy into the ground, not that he knew that Magellan was already done for after that first punch.
The battle on Evil Thoughts Ace's side was completely one-sided. Meanwhile, the fight between Ikki and Shiryu began.
Shiryu was a pure swordsman, so to counter him, Ikki went with his strongest blade, Toko. When Shiryu saw the wooden sword in Ikki's hand, he was a little stunned.
"Are you serious? You're going to face me with a wooden sword?" As a swordsman, Shiryu felt insulted.
"Hmph! What do you know?" Ikki retorted. "This is the strongest blade!" With that, Ikki waved his hand and a small projectile flew toward Shiryu.
A sneer appeared on Shiryu's face. He felt that killing this ignorant boy in front of him would be much more satisfying than fighting the son of One Piece. After dodging the projectile, Shiryu rushed at Ikki, drawing his sword in a single strike to end the fight instantly.
Ikki calmly held Toko in front of him to block.
"Hmph! You think you can block my sword with a wooden stick? That's just..." Before he could finish the word "foolish," Shiryu froze. His sword had actually been blocked by Ikki's Toko.
"I told you, this is the strongest blade!" Ikki said, as he channeled the Ox Bell from his pocket, causing it to glow. With a huge surge of force, he sent Shiryu flying several feet back, where he crashed into the iron door behind him and knocked it open.
Behind the door was Level 6, the prison where the most dangerous criminals were held. Seeing Shiryu roll in so disgracefully, the inmates got to their feet, one by one.
"Hey, who's this? Is that Shiryu? You look a bit pathetic after a few days."
"Haha, let me out! I'll kill him!"
At the same time, waves of Conqueror's Haki began to erupt throughout the sixth floor. Shiryu was unaffected by these blasts. He brushed himself off, his eyes growing serious.
"Interesting... I'm always killing criminals who have Seastone on them. It's been a long time since I've had a decent fight. Let me see if you're strong enough to excite my Raiu!"
Ikki laughed wildly. "Sounds good! I love fighting in front of a crowd! Come on! Shiryu of the Rain!"
Shiryu struck a fighting pose, ready for the battle to begin.
Buggy, who had been watching from afar, gulped. He knew both Ikki and Shiryu were powerful, and he was curious to see who was stronger. The prisoners in the cells also watched on with interest.
"Young man, kill Shiryu and let me out! I'll guarantee you become King of the Pirates!"
"Don't listen to him! Let me out and I'll teach you my skills! You know who Garp is, right? He's my disciple!"
"Idiot! You? Garp's master?"
Ikki ignored the prisoners. What was the point of listening to people who were about to die? He focused all his attention on Shiryu.
Shiryu sheathed his sword again and took a stance, preparing for a single, deadly strike. The battle was about to begin, and the noise around them began to die down.
"Die!" Shiryu roared, drawing his sword and rushing at Ikki.
Ikki once again took a defensive stance, this time coating Toko in Armament Haki. The two swords clashed, and Shiryu, knowing he couldn't overpower him directly, immediately disengaged and attacked from another direction.
But what confused Shiryu was that Ikki suddenly became careless with his defense, and instead, began to whistle.
