"Impossible!"
"Forgive me!"
"Stop it!!!"
"We are willing to follow you. Why do you still want to kill us?"
A group of pirates screamed, but in the next moment, they were mercilessly wiped out by the omnipresent Conqueror's Haki.
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 8,000 killing points."
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 9,000 killing points."
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 12,700 killing points."
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 15,600 killing points."
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 17,900 killing points."
"Ding, Host killed pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and earned 16,200 holy points."
The system's notifications echoed repeatedly in Lucifer's mind as his killing points skyrocketed at a terrifying pace.
Those imprisoned on the sixth floor of Impel Down were all pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million berries. Though weakened by prolonged confinement, each still yielded at least 8,000 killing points.
When the ruthless slaughter ended, Lucifer had amassed over 2 million killing points.
Properties Panel:
Host: Lucifer
Age: 23
Devil Fruit: Word Spirit Fruit
Physique: Hell Devil
Armament Haki: Domain
Observation Haki: Pinnacle
Conqueror's Haki: Domain
Kill Points: 2,456,000
Looking at his properties panel, Lucifer observed his total kill points. This was the highest tally he'd ever achieved since acquiring the system. And this was just the beginning.
The weaker pirates, those with bounties of over 100 million berries, had been crushed under the Conqueror's Haki. However, those with bounties exceeding 300 million, including legendary pirates, wouldn't go down so easily.
"Boom!"
Lucifer retracted his Conqueror's Haki field, leaving the sixth floor eerily silent. The air was thick with the stench of blood.
"It's quieter now," Lucifer remarked indifferently. "Those who survive are qualified to become my subordinates."
With a wave of his hand, the cell doors on the sixth floor shattered. One by one, the surviving pirates emerged, their eyes filled with a mixture of fear and awe.
They had witnessed Lucifer's monstrous power firsthand. Even those who survived bore injuries, some silently wiping blood from their mouths.
Yet, a few legendary figures remained in their cells.
"What? You don't want to leave?" Lucifer asked coldly, standing in front of one such cell.
Inside sat none other than Douglas Bullet, the "Demon Heir." A former crew member of Gol D. Roger's crew, Bullet was considered as strong as Rayleigh. Since leaving the Pirate King's crew, he had refused to join anyone else.
"I don't want to serve anyone," Bullet replied disdainfully. "You're strong, but you're not strong enough to make me submit."
Lucifer's eyes narrowed. "Then you've chosen death."
Without wasting time, Lucifer unleashed a crushing gravitational force that pinned Bullet to the ground.
"Gravity Crush!"
Bullet coughed up blood from the sheer pressure.
"The Spear of Vengeance!"
A black steel spear materialized and pierced Bullet's abdomen.
"You're arrogant, Bullet. I don't have time to waste convincing you. Surrender or die!"
"Ha! If you defeat me in a fair fight, I'll serve you willingly," Bullet taunted, blood dripping from his mouth.
Lucifer didn't bother responding.
"The Sword of Judgment!"
A golden blade materialized, slicing through the air before piercing Bullet's head.
With a wet splatter, Bullet's life ended.
"Ding, Host killed the pirate Douglas Bullet and earned 300,000 killing points."
The system's notification confirmed it: Bullet had become Lucifer's second-highest kill point contributor, trailing only Big Mom.
Seeing Bullet killed so decisively sent shockwaves through the remaining pirates.
Lucifer turned to the next cell. "What about you? What will you choose?"
The prisoner inside smirked. "Life, of course. Following a monster like you will give me the freedom to kill to my heart's content!"
The speaker was Shiryu of the Rain, the former warden of Impel Down, imprisoned for his sadistic killing of prisoners.
Lucifer slashed through Shiryu's seastone cuffs.
"Thank you, Captain," Shiryu said with a bloodthirsty grin.
Lucifer then moved through the remaining cells, recruiting other infamous pirates:
Avalo Pizarro, the "Corrupt King"
Catarina Devon, the "Crescent Moon Hunter"
Sanjuan Wolf, the "Colossal Battleship"
Vasco Shot, the "Heavy Drinker"
All chose to submit after witnessing Bullet's death.
Finally, Lucifer arrived at a cell containing a frozen prisoner: Byrnndi World, the "World Destroyer."
Lucifer shattered the ice encasing him with a single blow.
"Do you want to join me?" Lucifer asked.
World sneered. "I'll join, but only to exact my revenge on the World Government. Fail me, and I'll turn against you!"
Lucifer's calm reply: "Stay with me, and you'll have your chance for vengeance."
With that, the notorious "mad dog" agreed to follow Lucifer.
After subduing nearly all the legendary pirates, Lucifer approached the deepest cell on the sixth floor.
