Capítulo 185: Chapter 185: A Parting Gift
Paralyzed...
Why can't I move?
"Indeed, a half-human, half-fish creature."
Ryujiro examined Arlong with great interest.
Hearing the term "half-human, half-fish," Arlong was infuriated, but despite his anger, he couldn't move a muscle.
What did Ryujiro do? Why couldn't Arlong move?
The onlookers were all puzzled by the scene. Why had the fearsome Arlong suddenly become immobilized?
"Hey! Ryujiro!"
"That guy is mine to beat up."
Luffy shouted, visibly displeased.
However, just at that moment, Luffy found that he wanted to speak but couldn't utter a word. His eyes widened in panic.
Ryujiro's voice rang out slowly.
"Luffy, just stay there quietly and watch. I'm quite interested in these fishmen."
Suddenly, a faint green Chakra blade appeared at Ryujiro's fingertips.
As the blade slowly approached Arlong's chest, slicing open a wound, the onlookers turned their heads away, unable to bear the sight.
Arlong, filled with terror, could only watch helplessly as Ryujiro dissected him.
Although a deep cut appeared on Arlong's chest, with blood gushing out, he felt no pain. Even as his flesh was torn, there was no sensation.
Ryujiro continued to examine Arlong's internal organs, stroking his chin thoughtfully.
His organs aren't much different from those of humans, Ryujiro mused. They're just slightly larger.
But Ryujiro didn't stop there. He moved to stab at Arlong's heart.
Even though Arlong couldn't feel pain, watching someone dissect him was a nightmare beyond comprehension—a terror that made even death seem like a luxury.
"What did you do to me?! Why can't I feel anything?!"
"Don't worry," Ryujiro replied indifferently. "You won't feel any pain right now. I control your five senses."
Ryujiro had fully integrated the abilities of his Zanpakuto.
The Zanpakuto at his waist was not the Kyoka Suigetsu, for its abilities had already merged into his body.
The one at his side now was his own Zanpakuto, born from the powers of a Shinigami.
Because of its immense power, Ryujiro rarely used its abilities, as even he found it difficult to fully control the strength of his Zanpakuto.
With a swift slash, Ryujiro created another gash, blood flowing like a waterfall. The ground beneath Arlong turned crimson with his blood.
Even Zoro, who was no stranger to bloodshed, frowned at the sight. Watching someone be dissected alive was a torment beyond imagination.
"So this is the heart of a fishman?"
A human's heart is roughly the size of a fist, but Arlong's was twice that size, beating four times per second.
"Ahhhh! Kill me! Just kill me already!"
Although Arlong couldn't feel pain, the psychological torment had far exceeded his limits.
Nojiko watched Ryujiro in horror, her face pale.
She had never imagined that someone who seemed so cultured and refined could possess such terrifying methods.
Fishmen... What interesting creatures.
As the Chakra blade vanished, Ryujiro released his control over Arlong's senses. In an instant, Arlong experienced pain more excruciating than being flayed alive.
Arlong tore at his own lips, howling in agony. In just two seconds, he collapsed into a pool of his own blood, dead.
Luffy approached Ryujiro, pointing to his own mouth.
With a snap of Ryujiro's fingers, Luffy's voice returned.
"Ryujiro! Quickly, unlock it!"
Huh?
Hearing his voice again, Luffy was overjoyed.
I'm back to normal!
Nami walked over to Arlong's lifeless body, dazed. As she gazed at his corpse, all her pent-up emotions erupted.
Stab! Stab!
Even though it was just a corpse, Nami repeatedly plunged a knife into Arlong's increasingly cold body.
Nojiko ran out from the house and embraced Nami.
"It's over, Nami. It's all over."
Clang!
The knife fell from Nami's hand as she collapsed into Nojiko's arms, sobbing.
"The commotion is too loud. Arlong wouldn't be thinking of destroying Cocoyasi Village, would he? This place is our money tree."
Chew, emerging from Arlong Park, slowly approached Arlong's location with a group of fishmen underlings.
Suddenly, Chew froze in his tracks.
Seeing the bloody scene before him, Chew's eyes widened in terror.
"Is that... Arlong?!"
"Hachi! Kuroobi! What's happened to everyone?!"
"Damn humans! What have you done?!"
Enraged, the fishmen charged at Ryujiro, but in an instant, an invisible shockwave erupted, distorting the air and tearing the fishmen apart.
Before Chew could process what was happening, a shadow appeared in front of him.
Condense! Release!
With a single punch, Ryujiro unleashed a black flash of cursed energy, engulfing Chew.
Boom!
The immense impact sent Chew flying, his fate unknown, but it was certain that he had no chance of surviving under that black flash.
As Ryujiro gazed at the cursed energy flowing around his fist, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
The cursed energy had changed. It felt strange yet intriguing.
"Oh!"
"What was that just now?"
"A black flash?! That was so cool!"
"I want to learn it! Ryujiro, can you teach me?"
"I want to learn it too!"
Luffy's eyes sparkled as he stared at Ryujiro, his desire to learn more intense than ever before.
At that moment, Hinata appeared beside Ryujiro, and in the next second, an overwhelming aura of a king erupted from Ryujiro, sending shockwaves through Cocoyasi Village.
Everyone in the village was struck by the overwhelming Haki and instantly lost consciousness.
Nami and Nojiko gave Ryujiro a final, terrified glance before collapsing to the ground.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, three figures were sent flying—Sanji, Zoro, and Usopp, knocked away by a casual strike from Ryujiro.
Luffy, relying on sheer willpower, stood his ground, glaring angrily at Ryujiro.
"What the hell are you doing, you bastard!"
Ryujiro gave Luffy a calm look. "This is a parting gift."
"Understand your own powerlessness. You're all too weak right now."
"If I wished, they would all be dead. Remember this feeling, and never forget it."
With that, Ryujiro delivered a powerful punch to Luffy's abdomen.
Spurt!
Luffy coughed up blood, casting a resentful glance at Ryujiro before losing consciousness.
As a gentle breeze blew through the village, the figures of Ryujiro and Hinata had already disappeared from Cocoyasi Village.
