Chapter 144 Doflamingo is scared.
Its first target was a terrifying being so powerful that even it felt terrified.
Thinking of this, he was possessed, staggering yet determined, as he rushed towards the control panel. Reaching the console, without hesitation, he extended his trembling fingers and pressed one of the buttons.
With a soft "whoosh," a large amount of dark green poisonous gas surged out like a flood bursting its banks, instantly filling the entire fortress.
The poisonous gas spread rapidly along the intricate channels and pipes, and in the blink of an eye, it flooded into the room where Aini was.
Through the ventilation ducts, one could see a continuous stream of toxic gas gushing out, resembling ferocious venomous snakes, spreading menacingly into every inch of the room.
"Uh?"
Aini's heart skipped a beat, and his brows furrowed involuntarily. He knew perfectly well what what he was looking at meant—this was a weapon of mass destruction meticulously developed by M. Caesar Courland!
The spreading poisonous gas is like a series of ferocious venomous snakes, which will quickly coil around anyone who comes into contact with it.
Once in contact with these toxic gases, they will penetrate the skin and enter the body like a bone-deep infection, causing the person to feel numb all over and unable to move at all.
Even more terrifying is that, over time, these toxic gases can form an incredibly hard petrified shell on a person's body, completely enveloping the entire person.
Those trapped inside this petrified shell will gradually lose consciousness and become nothing more than lifeless husks.
Moreover, if this seemingly indestructible outer shell cannot be broken within half a day, then death is the only outcome for the victim.
Even he was no match for such a terrifying weapon.
At this moment, I dare not be complacent in the slightest.
Why does Kui have a nickname, "Pandemic Disaster"?
Because he created three major biological weapons.
1. Plague Bullet: One of the three biological weapons developed by Quinn. It is a bullet filled with a virus. People hit by the bullet will be immediately infected by the virus inside the bullet.
During the Fire Festival, Quinn even used a Gatling gun to fire plague bullets at the crowd.
Second, the Mummy: One of Quinn's three major bioweapons, an artificial virus that causes people infected with it to feel feverish all over. The high temperature gradually spreads from the point of impact to the whole body, causing a burning pain, followed by a gushing out of blood.
After death, the body will become as dry as a mummy.
The most terrifying thing is that this virus can also be transmitted through physical contact. And once contact occurs, it will immediately infect the person who comes into contact with it.
Its high transmissibility is terrifying.
Third, Ice Ghost: One of Quinn's three major bioweapons, an artificial virus. He considers it his greatest masterpiece; those infected with this virus will feel cold.
The cold air will gradually spread from the point of injury to the whole body. The areas covered by the cold will become like evil spirits, and death will occur if the poison is not neutralized within an hour.
People infected with the virus will attack others uncontrollably, indiscriminately, and anyone who comes into contact with them will immediately become infected. Infected people will consume all their physical strength and stamina to fight, like zombies.
This is how Quinn came to be known as the "Plague".
However, in Aini's opinion...
Quinn's virus is far inferior to M. Caesar Courant's poison gas. After all, the range of Quinn's three viruses is not large.
It is even necessary for individuals to come into contact and infect each other for the virus to spread on a large scale.
Moreover, if they encounter a strong opponent, they can eliminate all infected individuals without making contact.
And they will be safe and sound...
However, M. Caesar Courant's poison gas is wide-ranging and all-encompassing. Especially in enclosed spaces like this, it's almost impossible to counter.
"brush……"
Having read the original work, Aini knew the situation was critical and there was no time to waste.
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and without hesitation, he swung the Autumn Water sword in his hand.
In an instant, a terrifying slash that sent chills down one's spine suddenly erupted.
The slash swept away with unparalleled power, and wherever it passed, whether it was the ground paved with bluestone as hard as steel, or the thick and solid walls and towering mountains, they were all easily cut apart as if they were fragile tofu.
In an instant, rubble flew everywhere and dust billowed, making the whole scene exceptionally awe-inspiring.
From the outside, one would see a terrifying slash erupt from the fortress, piercing straight through the entire mountain. A chasm appeared in the middle of the mountain.
Clearly, the entire mountain has been cut in two.
"hiss...."
Vergo, who was outside, naturally saw this scene as well, even though he had run quite a distance. He was still shocked by the enormous commotion... especially when he saw the mountain that had been split in two.
He stood there, completely stunned.
"A great swordsman?"
Vergo was utterly horrified. Just moments ago, Aini had attacked him without even drawing his sword, yet now he was displaying such terrifying swordsmanship.
This forced him to reassess Aini's strength.
It's probably even stronger than what I experienced before.
Three figures flashed through his mind: Kizaru, Akainu, and Aokiji, the Navy's top combatants.
Once he found a perfect spot, he immediately took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket. Even though he had just been hit, he had protected it.
This is the moment we've been waiting for.
“Brubru….”
The Den Den Mushi connected quickly, and the Mushi transformed into Doflamingo's appearance, coldly asking, "Vergo, what's wrong that you're calling at this hour?"
Vergo was silent for a moment, then said with a solemn expression, "Young Master, I'm with Monet now. And I've run into that Rear Admiral, Aini."
"what?"
Doflamingo immediately stood up and exclaimed in surprise.
Because he immediately understood the meaning of the sentence and what it represented.
My heart jumped into my throat.
If something happens to M. Caesar Clown, he's finished. After all, M. Caesar Clown is involved in the artificial Devil Fruit deal with the Beasts Pirates, and also in the giantification experiment with the BOOM Pirates.
The key to both of these is M. Caesar Courland.
The fact that Aini arrived there meant that he already knew of M. Caesar Courant's existence, and even his relationship with M. Caesar Courant.
They even knew about the deals between the two of them and the Beasts Pirates and the BOOM Pirates.
If that's really the case.
The purpose of Aini's trip there is now quite clear.
If that's not the case, and Aini just happened to go there, then it's too much of a coincidence.
Although, deep down I hope it's just a coincidence.
But reason told him that this was definitely not a coincidence. So, at this moment, Doflamingo couldn't help but feel fear.
