Sakazuki had already noticed that something was wrong.
Immediately, he covered his whole body with armament haki and became alert.
Rayleigh's aura seemed to turn into an invisible attack and instantly exploded on Sakazuki.
The power was astonishing, comparable to Whitebeard's attacks.
The smoke cleared.
Sakazuki wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Except for some minor shock injuries to his internal organs, nothing serious.
Looking at Rayleigh, who was clearly out of strength at this moment, Sakazuki laughed.
Rayleigh's attack moves just now began to play over and over in his mind.
After a while, before Rayleigh could regain his strength, a similar or even stronger momentum appeared again. Only this time, it came from Sakazuki.
Rayleigh, who was bent over and still breathing, looked in disbelief. The shock in his heart could not be greater.
"How can it be??? Conqueror's haki!!! How can you have it?"
This was not over yet.
The terrifying aura erupting from Sakazuki formed a red dragon in the air. Carrying red lightning around him, it roared towards the shocked Rayleigh.
Boom!
In an instant, the red dragon devoured Rayleigh in his surprised eyes. Then there was a huge explosion. People on more than 70 small islands throughout the Sabaody Islands could hear this loud noise. Everyone thought it was thundering and it was going to rain, so they rushed back home.
Sakazuki didn't just have Conqueror's dominance. And as soon as he took action, Conqueror's entanglement would hit him from afar!
Seeing the power caused by his first use of Conqueror's haki, Sakazuki nodded with satisfaction. Yesterday, he thought it would take several days to master Conqueror's haki. He managed to do it today. The next step is to work hard and slowly get better!
Who says that Teacher Rayleigh misleads students and is a mediocre teacher? He, Sakazuki, was the first to refuse. Look at others. Teacher Rayleigh paid the price with his life at the last moment, teaching him Conqueror's haki.
Speaking of which, Rayleigh withstood Sakazuki's domineering attack. At this moment, his whole body was covered with scars. He was already dying, with more air coming out and less air going in.
Sakazuki walked slowly to Rayleigh. A foot stepped on Rayleigh's chest. He sneered at the pirate who was helping Roger . Rayleigh was speechless at this moment, even immersed in Sakazuki's shocking Conqueror's domineering power.
Sakazuki looked at Rayleigh, who was motionless. No nonsense either. Raising his right hand slightly, he punched up and down. The breath of Silvers Rayleigh, the deputy of Gol D. Roger, disappeared!
"Rayleigh!"
Shakky saw Rayleigh die tragically at the hands of Sakazuki and let out a cry of sorrow.
Sakazuki glanced coldly at the excited Shakky. "Send her down for a reunion!"
After receiving the instruction, Drake sealed her throat with his sword. The grief-stricken Shakky was killed in an instant.
"It took almost a day to finally solve a small problem."
Sakazuki twisted his neck, relaxing all the muscles and bones in his body. The dignified deputy captain of Gol D Roger turned out to be just a small problem in Sakazuki's words. Drake couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Ignoring the subtle expression on Drake's face, Sakazuki said, "Drake, take your pirate group to the New World immediately!"
The storm is coming; you have to hurry up!
...
Sakazuki found the Marine base on the Sabaody Islands. Ignoring the shocked expressions of all the Marines, he casually threw the bodies of Rayleigh and Shakky to the Marine who was guarding the door. He briefly explained the situation. Before the base commander came out to greet him, he rushed to Impel Down City without stopping!
Sakazuki didn't bother to communicate with the Marine base commander, who was hooking up with the Celestial Dragons from the Sabaody Islands. He was even afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and would kill this Celestial Dragon lackey, rotten to the core, with a magma punch.
...
Flying in the air for several hours, Sakazuki finally saw the towering Impel Down ahead. Although it was already midnight, he appeared resolute despite his exhaustion. As he landed, Domino, now promoted to warden, greeted him immediately. Her golden, curly hair flowed around her, though parts of her body were wrapped in gauze from injuries.
"Fleet Admiral Sakazuki! Do I need to take you to see Deputy Admiral Magellan now?" Domino asked with a mixture of surprise and respect.
"It's late. Don't disturb Magellan. Take me to a resting place first," Sakazuki replied.
Domino led him past LV1 Crimson Hell, quickly arriving at LV2 Wild Beast Hell, en route to LV3 Starvation Hell. As they passed through, the pirates' mocking voices echoed through the cells.
"Hey~ Is this beautiful warden staying up late and following Marine next to her to do something casual?" a one-eyed pirate shouted.
"That Marine seems to be very weak! Don't be drained!" another pirate added.
"Hahaha!!!"
The laughter rippled in the quiet space, but the atmosphere around Sakazuki solidified. The accompanying jailers looked at their Fleet Admiral, noticing his expression growing darker. None dared to make a sound.
