Chapter 81 - Chapter 82: Im Wants Her 

"Damn it... Giant One!"

Light—endless light—flooded Satan's vision. Every single spike was pulverized to dust amid the swirling rainbow glow.

The spear of the giant, connecting heaven and earth, unleashed its fury and rage without restraint, hurling Satan spinning backward.

Higher and higher he flew, until even the Holy Land Mariejois shrank to a tiny black dot below.

Biting cold winds scraped across his body, slicing through the deep night sky, breaking free from the gales and clouds. Satan ascended into the heavens, coming face-to-face with the moon hanging there!

"I lost..."

Victory slipped further and further away, leaving only a grim, visible future of despair.

Even with his immortal body and powerful Devil Fruit abilities, he still tasted the bitterness of defeat.

But it wasn't a loss in raw power—it was falling behind in the game of schemes. The second weakness of his immortality had been exposed!

"Haruno Sakura!!!"

His unwilling roar shattered the clouds. His immense power surged through the sky, and finally, a black pentagram blanketed everything.

When the storm cleared, the high altitude fell silent once more. Not a single soul remained.

In the Holy Land Mariejois, the giant's shadow—wreathed in thick fog—dissipated. Sakura dropped to one knee on the ground, gasping for air.

Her vision blurred. The wounds on her body had been mended with the Yin Healing Wound Destruction jutsu, but the lost blood and spreading toxins still gnawed at her fading consciousness.

Or rather, holding her own against the toxins from a powerful Mythical Zoan ability user this long was already a testament to the titan royal clan's tough-as-nails physique.

More Holy Land guards and Cipher Pol agents poured out like an angry hornet's nest, all raising their guns in unison, trained right on Sakura.

The battered girl, surrounded by enemies on all sides, cracked a broken, fragmented smile.

"Hahaha... am I gonna die?"

All her chakra had gone into repairing her body and suppressing the poison. She didn't have enough left to use the Flying Thunder God before her mind slipped away.

Is this it? Sakura wondered in a daze, her ears catching the distant roar of ocean waves—thrilling, heart-pounding surges from the sea.

Huh... has someone come to pick me up?

"Don't give up, Sakura!"

A hoarse bellow ripped through the flames. The crimson-scaled fish-man, covered head to toe in blood just like her, barreled through a squad of Holy Land guards with his sheer brute strength.

He burst into the heart of the encirclement, hoisted Sakura onto his shoulder, and charged outward.

Tiger... how?

The violent jolting made Sakura's head swim even more. Her parched lips twitched, squeezing out a faint sound.

"Why..."

Tiger wasn't in great shape either—he'd carved a bloody path from the outskirts straight to the center—but the fire in him wasn't the dead, empty kind from before. Somewhere in his shattered soul, a clear voice had taken root.

"Didn't we agree to head out to sea together? So don't you dare lag behind on me!"

Blood streamed down his scarred face, and with those sharp, predatory teeth of a snapper fish-man, it should've looked twisted and terrifying.

But under his grin, it somehow came off... unexpectedly gentle.

"The rest... I'll leave it to you... cough..."

Sakura hacked up a mouthful of blood, exhaustion crashing over her like a wave. She slipped into a deep, heavy sleep.

"Shoot! Open fire! We can't let them get away, or we'll all end up as slaves!"

The guards and CP agents hot on their heels wore faces twisted in raw terror.

The thought of that hellish slave life crashing down on them was enough to unleash the fear they could no longer hold back.

That dread swelled into a massive wave of malice as they clustered together—a desperate urge to trample others into the abyss just to catch a moment's breath themselves.

Fisher Tiger crushed the wooden barrel on his back with one hand, seizing the gushing water in his grip.

Fish-Man Karate: Modified Torrent Overhead Throw!

A torrent erupted like a geyser, blasting the guards dead ahead clean out of the way.

Riding the surge, Tiger sprinted to the edge of the Red Line continent's sheer cliff. Staring into the abyss swallowed by clouds, he finally let out a breath.

Then he whipped around, flashing a silent, mocking laugh at the CP agents and guards behind him.

"You love being lapdogs for the powers that be so much? Then go get a real taste of it—slave life!"

With that, under a hail of hateful glares that bored into him like daggers, Fisher Tiger—Sakura slung over his shoulder—leaped off the edge.

One by one, the CP agents and Holy Land guards went pale as ghosts, eyes bulging, jaws dropping to their chests, tongues lolling out in wavy spasms, exposing pink gums and pearly whites.

"He... he jumped!!!"

"No... no way!"

Out in the New World, off the coast of the Dressrosa Kingdom, the four men on the warship locked eyes on Satan as he clawed his way out of the burning pentagram.

Facing his colleagues' questions, a defeated Satan could only shake his head and admit the shameful truth.

"Bump up her bounty level. That girl's no ordinary pirate anymore!"

"She's a leftover pawn from the Energy Destroyer! And a spawn of that demon-blooded scum!"

Leaning on his staff of authority, Satan shut his eyes and let out a weary sigh.

"Exactly—the Government's prestige won't stand for defiance!"

Izanbaron V. Nasujuro, the Finance Martial God with the demon blade Onigiri slung over his shoulder, adjusted his glasses, his gaze sharpening.

"So, what about the Knights of God selection?"

Topman Warcury, the Justice Martial God, glanced at the distant island, arms crossed as he lounged against the sofa.

"Postpone it. Dealing with this new spark comes first!"

Marcus Mars, the Environment Martial God, turned from the window, hands clasped behind his back.

"Then CP teams up with the Marines for a full takedown. And update the Judicial Island warrant: dead or alive!"

Shepherd Ju Peter, the Agriculture Martial God, swept his eyes over the other four. With their silent nods of approval, he pulled a Den Den Mushi from his pocket to call his subordinates.

But in the room, black flames danced wildly, forging the silhouette of a figure stirring atop the Empty Throne. A pair of ringed pupils glared down at these power brokers amid crackling thunder.

"Lord Im!"

The five highest authorities in the world dropped to their knees like lowly servants, heads bowed in reverence to that figure.

A mysterious force swept through their minds, rifling through memories of the battle and conversation like pages in a book.

They knew the distant lord was piecing together what happened, so they didn't dare move a muscle.

"Satan. Why did you let her escape?"

No anger, no roar—just a calm so absolute it chilled to the bone.

"I'm sorry, Lord Im. I didn't know her..."

A dominating power slammed down, seizing Satan by the throat and hoisting him into the air. Black lightning crackled over his body, withering him like old parchment.

"Lord Im, this all happened so fast—the villain's audacity was beyond anything we imagined..."

The others chimed in, pleading for their long-time ally.

But the figure in the pentagram turned a slight, attentive gaze their way. A repulsive force detonated in front of the four, blasting them back to slam against the walls.

The outburst eased Im's temper a bit, though. The grip on Satan loosened, dropping him to the floor in a gasping heap.

"No second chances. Bring that girl to me!"

From a hellscape of a demonic realm, the towering figure issued his final ultimatum to the puny underlings before him—and boldly proclaimed his desire without a shred of restraint!

"Im wants her!"
