Chapter 180: Aises' Terrifying Ability
A "rumbling" sound echoed as the elevator reached the ground floor.
The elevator doors opened, and Impel Down Warden Aises, who had just arrived, witnessed this scene.
His pupils couldn't help but shrink.
At the same time, he also noticed who the invading enemy was.
The anger in his heart over Black's death completely shifted onto Rocks.
"Rocks, do you want to die?"
Aises gritted his teeth, his body erupting with a terrifying aura.
"Oh? Who gave you such confidence?" Hearing the words of the Strongman from Impel Down before him, Rocks frowned.
It had been a long time since anyone had spoken to him like that.
Feeling the aura emanating from Aises, it was extremely powerful, definitely Admiral-level combat power, a Monster who stood in this domain purely through body technique and Haki.
But merely being like this didn't give him the qualifications to speak so arrogantly here.
Is it his ability?
Rocks' strength was known to everyone, and the person before him wasn't a fool either.
What could give him such confidence was likely only his ability.
While he was thinking, Aises had already made his move.
His figure instantly vanished from his original position, appearing before Shiki, and a terrifying fist technique unleashed with full explosive power sent Shiki flying directly away.
He had arrived late.
Looking at the large hole on the side, he knew there were powerful Pirates heading to deeper levels.
He let out an angry roar, venting the fire in his heart.
He had guarded Impel Down for over forty years, dedicating more than half his life to Impel Down.
Now, such a huge upheaval had occurred.
This was his lifelong faith, his lifelong glory, and even his lifelong effort.
Even if it was Rocks, what of it? He had made up his mind that no matter what, he wouldn't let anyone escape.
No matter what the Rocks Pirates wanted to do, he would block the exit.
"Damn pirates, do you even know what you're doing?"
After finishing one punch, Aises slightly bent his legs.
The next moment, his body exploded like a cannonball, charging directly towards Titan at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
"What a troublesome old man." Shiki rubbed his chest where he had taken a heavy blow, stood up, and chuckled.
His gaze turned towards the great battle that had already begun.
Titan, who was mentally prepared, naturally wouldn't be easily sent flying by Aises.
Facing the approaching Aises, he met him with a hammer blow.
Biting down hard, he threw a punch that perfectly combined speed, strength, and explosive power, carrying a terrifying impact-like strength.
Shiki quickly joined the battle.
However, they soon discovered something was wrong.
No matter what, Aises seemed unable to be injured.
His stamina seemed inexhaustible, and every punch unleashed peak-level strength.
The two of them together were actually being suppressed by Aises.
What kind of monster was this?
Aises is a Paramecia Type Connect-Connect Fruit Ability User, capable of connecting with all the Criminals throughout Impel Down.
While monitoring the Criminals, whether it was injury, pain, or stamina, it was all borne by the Criminals connected by his ability.
A bizarre ability that automatically disperses the damage taken.
This means that any attack faced, after landing on his body, would be weakened countless times.
It was precisely because of this that Aises could use his ability without restraint and battle without restraint.
His body was in excellent condition.
He ate the Devil Fruit very early and hadn't accumulated any hidden injury over the years.
Therefore, even though he was seventy years old, his combatant strength remained at its peak.
The slight decline in stamina was also negligible due to his ability.
Such an Aises was completely a Madman without any scruples.
Inside Impel Down, in a sense, he was "invincible"!
Even facing Shiki plus Titan plus Rocks, he wouldn't fear them.
His frantic offense, with built-in invincibility, damage immunity, and full health/stamina buffs, was even more troublesome in Rocks' eyes than "Steel Bone" Kong.
On the other side, realizing that the Impel Down Warden had missed them, Hades and Byrnndi World separated.
He had Byrnndi World rush to Infinite Hell first, dealing with the obstructing Jailer along the way.
As for Hades, he went to find the keys to open the cages and the Seastone chains.
The journey went smoothly.
The few Jailer encountered were easily dealt with by Hades.
After finding what he wanted, he rushed to the fifth underground level, the Extreme Cold Hell.
In the icy and snowy landscape, a pit appeared, connecting to Infinite Hell.
It was precisely the one blasted open by Byrnndi World.
Byrnndi World was engaged in a great battle, or rather, a one-sided war.
His opponent was Scott, the Impel Down head jailer guarding the Extreme Cold Hell and the entrance to Infinite Hell.
Facing Byrnndi World's terrifying strength, Scott was completely under suppression, and it was unknown how much longer he could last.
Glancing at the location of the battle, Hades paid it no mind and leaped directly into the pit, entering Infinite Hell.
"Tap... tap tap..."
Hades landed on the ground, and crisp footsteps echoed within the space of Infinite Hell.
"How pathetic, haha!" Hades looked at the Criminals, ignoring their gazes like wolves and tigers, and chuckled softly, somewhat nonchalantly, and seemingly with a hint of disdain.
These Criminals frowned but didn't speak.
From the Conqueror's Haki that erupted earlier, they could guess that they were not on the same level as this Invader.
Among the few Monsters who invaded Impel Down, this one was definitely one of them.
At the same time, they wondered inwardly when such a Monster had appeared on The Great Sea.
Locked in Infinite Hell, isolated from the World, they had no idea what was happening outside.
They didn't have the status of someone like Doflamingo, who even after being imprisoned in Impel Down, had someone specifically deliver newspapers.
"Hades, it's you! Why are you in Infinite Hell?" Someone recognized Hades.
Hades had been rising in the Rocks Pirates for several years now.
He was a Great Pirate with a bounty over a hundred million.
Due to bad luck, he ran into Garp, was defeated without resistance, and then imprisoned in Impel Down.
Although imprisoned in Infinite Hell, he was undoubtedly at the very bottom tier within Infinite Hell.
Where there are people, there is a pecking order.
This World ultimately speaks through strength, and the Prison is no different.
"Newcomer, who is he?" asked a Criminal in a nearby cage.
"Pluto Hades, one of the Rocks Pirates' Core Cadres, Captain of the Pluto Pirates."
This Pirate didn't hide anything and explained, his words carrying a hint of respect.
Whenever new members arrived, the Criminals of Infinite Hell would have the newcomers recount some events happening on The Great Sea, especially the structure of the Great Sea, so they wouldn't become disconnected from the era during their endless wait.
At the same time, it also helped pass the boring time.
Hearing him say this, everyone else reacted, realizing who the man before them was.
Nowadays, the Rocks Pirates were undoubtedly the most prominent on The Great Sea.
And within the Rocks Pirates, "Pluto" Hades was undoubtedly one of the most dazzling Pirates in recent years.
Rising within the Rocks Pirates in a short period, becoming a Core Cadre, and forming the Pluto Pirates.
Young! Terrifying!
This was their first impression.
