Chapter 50: Haven't Even Fought, and the Corrupt King Chickens Out
"Who else dares to fight!"
Satan's Haki flowed domineeringly.
His gaze swept over all the pirates.
But, anyone his gaze fell upon, all the pirates lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
"What, all of you are cowards?"
"Aren't you supposed to be the most vicious and heinous great pirates in the world?"
"Just this?"
Satan frowned.
The Eternal Hell, is it over this quickly?
"Tch, do you take me for a fool?"
"San Juan Wolf is dead, the World Destroyer is dead."
"And the pirates who were released before are also dead. You're just using 'duels' as an excuse to kill wantonly."
A pirate couldn't help but complain.
"That's right, do you think I'm stupid?"
"I want freedom, but if my life is gone, what damn use is freedom?"
"Stop trying to trick me into coming out, I'm not coming out!"
The pirates shouted one after another.
Satan was simply too terrifying.
A zero bounty, a ten-move pact... they wouldn't fall for it.
"How pathetic!"
"The Eternal Hell is nothing more than this!"
Satan discovered he couldn't absorb any Seven Deadly Sins power from these pirates.
It seemed his Impel Down journey was about to end.
No, before that, he needed to recruit some people.
For example, Crocodile...
Greed... there probably weren't many pirates whose ambition surpassed that of Crocodile.
Thinking of this, Satan strolled through the Eternal Hell.
It was as if he was strolling through a zoo, and these 'animals' were the prisoners.
That gaze that disregarded everything made all the pirates feel ashamed.
"Hahaha!"
"Strong, Satan, how about you let me out?"
"We can join forces, form an alliance!"
"And then we'll turn this world upside down together!"
The Corrupt King laughed loudly, directly extending an invitation to Satan.
"You?"
Satan scoffed.
"That's right, with me!"
"How about we join forces?"
The Corrupt King looked expectant.
"You are not worthy!"
Satan shook his head, his face full of disdain.
The Corrupt King's strength was not bad, but unfortunately, he was too old in his eyes.
And, his image was too poor, it didn't fit his criteria for selecting crew members.
"I'm not worthy?"
The Corrupt King was dumbfounded.
He was, at any rate, a heinous pirate who had dominated a region, and now a rookie was saying he wasn't worthy?
How arrogant and domineering.
But this was followed by endless anger.
"Bastard, stop looking down on people!"
"When I was roaming the seas, you were still breastfeeding somewhere!"
The Corrupt King roared.
"Ding, detected value of Wrath. Absorb!"
"Absorb!"
"Ding, absorption successful, obtained 100 Wrath value, randomly converted to 10 Stamina points!"
Absorbing the Seven Deadly Sins value, a wicked smile played at the corner of Satan's mouth. He said: "Well then, old-timer!"
"Do you want to fight me?"
"If you beat me, I can join forces with you!"
Satan said, stepping forward as if to open the Corrupt King's cage.
But, seeing this, the Corrupt King's face was full of apprehension.
"Don't, don't, don't!"
"I... I suddenly remembered I have something to do, I'm not coming out for now!"
The Corrupt King hurriedly stopped Satan.
Although he was arrogant and confident, the precedent of the World Destroyer made him full of fear.
"No way, the Corrupt King chickened out?"
"This kid scared the vicious and heinous pirate witless!"
"What a terrifying rookie!"
"A zero bounty, for real? You're not lying to me, are you!"
The pirates exclaimed in shock.
The heinous Corrupt King, chickened out?
They simply couldn't believe their eyes.
But afterward, they looked at Satan with even more envy and jealousy.
Someone even shouted: "Little bro, I'm willing to be your crew member! Let me out, okay!"
"Ding, detected value of Envy and value of Greed. Absorb!"
"Absorb!"
"Ding, absorption successful, obtained 300 Envy value, randomly converted to 30 Stamina points!"
"Ding, absorption successful, obtained 200 Greed value, randomly converted to 20 Spirit points!"
"The dregs of the Eternal Hell, want to become my crew members?"
"Then what can you bring to me?"
A wicked smile played at the corner of Satan's mouth.
In the Eternal Hell, the Seven Deadly Sins had been squeezed to their limit.
It was time to leave!
But, before leaving, time to squeeze one last wave!
"I can be your underling!"
"I can offer all my treasure!"
"I can bear your children!"
The pirates shouted one after another.
But, Satan was unmoved.
"I once traveled on Whitebeard's ship."
"Whitebeard once invited me to join his crew. The iron rule of his ship is 'family'!"
"I was once a guest on Red-Haired's ship!"
"Red-Haired once invited me to join his crew. On his ship, there is 'freedom'!"
"Garp once invited me to join the Marines, representing 'justice'!"
"But, I didn't agree to any of them!"
"Because I am me, a different breed!"
"So, if you want to board my ship, what can you bring to me?"
"And what is my will?"
Satan said indifferently.
But, as his words fell, the entire hell once again fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone looked at Satan, completely dumbfounded.
Their eyes were filled with utter disbelief.
Whitebeard?
Red-Haired?
Garp?
They all extended invitations to Satan?
