"lead the way."
Maud's eyes seemed to be captivating, piercing the depths of Hannibal's eyes.
Like a sharp sword, it struck Hannibal's soul.
Hannibal's heart trembled, his face was wet with cold sweat, and he did not dare to look directly into Maud's eyes.
He knew that Thor, who was thrown into the extreme cold hell, was already a corpse.
Moreover, there is a large group of military wolves raised in the forest of the extreme cold hell, and it is very likely that they have eaten Thor's body until there is no residue left.
But how dare he say such words in front of Maude.
Seeing Hannibal lowering his head and trembling without speaking, Maud's eyes became more terrifying.
The heavy pressure brought by Maud's gaze kept impacting Hannibal's spirit.
Under such high pressure, Hannibal did not collapse, but suddenly woke up.
From the moment Thor died—
Once Maude comes to the door, no matter what the process is, as the warden of Impel Down City, he will eventually die.
Thinking of this, Hannibal slowly stopped shaking and became surprisingly calm.
Since death is inevitable...
Then you must die a worthy death!
Hannibal did not forget the task assigned by his superiors to hold off Maude as much as possible.
"I'll lead the way..."
After regaining his composure, Hannibal buried his head and hunched over.
Everyone walked out of the central control room.
Hannibal, the leader, immediately saw the jailer lying on the ground. Although he had expected it, his heart sank when he saw this scene.
After a while.
Hannibal took Maud and others to the freezing hell.
The temperature here is extremely low, and everything visible is covered with a layer of ice.
Hannibal, who simply put on a warden's uniform, could not stop trembling from the cold.
He gritted his teeth and endured the erosion of the low temperature, leading the way.
No matter how badly he was frozen, he had already decided to take Maud here to kill meaningless time in order to complete the task assigned by his superiors.
Anyway, even if he dies, he won't make Maude feel better!
"Half an hour, as long as I can hold him here for half an hour..."
Hannibal stared straight at the ice and snow ahead. He was suffering from pain, and there was only one thought left in his mind.
In this way, Hannibal, who knew nothing about the whereabouts of Thor's body, took Mod and others and began an aimless search in the extremely cold hell.
According to Hannibal's estimation, half an hour is already the limit.
And he had to take Mod to the forest, and then use the army wolves to block Mod.
Even if it can be blocked for a minute!
Hannibal, who had his own calculation in his heart, while enduring unbearable pain, felt a burst of joy in his heart just thinking about Maud's possible reaction after discovering that he had been tricked.
However-
Plans failed to keep up with the changes.
When Hannibal and Maud passed by a building ruins that were half buried by ice and snow, a corpse with half of its face exposed in the snow attracted everyone's attention.
The half of the face that was exposed was covered with a thick layer of ice, and it was leaning against a stone pillar that was inserted diagonally into the snow.
The color almost blends in with the surrounding environment. If you don't look carefully, you may not notice the existence of half of the face.
Hannibal, Jinbe, and Bucky didn't react much after seeing that half of the face.
But Maude dodged and came to the stone pillar in the blink of an eye. She squatted down and stared at the half of her face that was leaning on the stone pillar.
Even if it is covered with a thick layer of ice slag, even if only half of the face is exposed.
But Maude recognized him at first sight.
"Thor..."
The low, inaudible voice trembled slightly.
Maude stretched out her trembling hand and slowly pushed away the ice and snow covering half of her face.
"Maud?"
Jinbe, who didn't immediately recognize that half of his face as Thor, sensed something from Mod's actions, and his expression couldn't help but change slightly.
Bucky didn't react yet and looked at Maud strangely.
Hannibal was much smarter than Bucky. He vaguely guessed something, and his face suddenly became paler, and there was no trace of blood anymore.
"That corpse, could it be... impossible, absolutely impossible!!!"
Just thinking about this possibility, Hannibal couldn't help but roar in his heart.
He didn't believe that he would be so unlucky, nor did he believe that Maud would be so lucky.
And at this moment.
Maud didn't care about Hannibal's reaction at all. He lowered his head and stared at Thor's face.
The low temperature that filled the surroundings, while preserving Thor's body, also froze the smile on Thor's face before he died.
"You're still laughing even though you're dead, you old man..."
Maud suppressed the grief that surged crazily from the bottom of her heart, but her eyes still couldn't help but feel hot, and tears welled up in them.
Slowly clenching her fists hard, Maud silently looked at the piercing wound on Thor's chest.
Hannibal still wanted to make a final struggle. He looked at Maud who was squatting down. When he was about to speak, Maud suddenly disappeared from his field of vision.
"Well?"
Hannibal blinked.
In this extremely brief moment of opening and closing, Maud appeared in front of Hannibal's eyes.
Hannibal was stunned.
Maud reached out her hand and pinched Hannibal's entire mouth.
His expression was like the ice and snow around him.
Puff, puff...!
The moment Maud pinched Hannibal's mouth, intricate black shadow thorns penetrated Hannibal's body from all angles, as if dozens of caltrops were blooming in Hannibal's body.
The blood splattered out and stained the snow with countless blood flowers.
Hannibal's face stiffened.
At the last moment when his consciousness was eroded by darkness, he heard Maud's whisper.
"Thor said that if he wants me to help him find his place, first... let the entire Impel City be buried with him."
“…”
Hannibal breathed his last with unspeakable horror.
Maud threw Hannibal's body on the snow as if it were trash, then turned back to Thor's body and fell into a deathly silence.
Bucky was also on the side, looking at Thor's body dumbfounded.
Jinbei looked solemn and didn't say a word.
"Jinbei."
After a moment, Maude's voice without any emotion came over.
Hearing the sound, Jinbe subconsciously looked at Maude's back.
Maude didn't look back and said expressionlessly: "I need your help with something."
Jinbei said seriously: "No matter what the matter is, I am bound to do it."
"Look at Thor's body for me."
"good."
Jinbei agreed without thinking.
After handing Thor's body to Jinbei, Maud's eyes glowed red and he sped away in one direction.
Seeing Maud's actions, Bucky, who had not yet digested the fact that Thor was dead, was suddenly shocked.
"Brother Maude, where are you going?!"
As the last syllable fell, Maud's figure had disappeared into the vast white snow.
Without Maud by his side, Bucky panicked.
Jinbe carefully picked up Thor's body, then looked towards the direction where Mod disappeared, and said solemnly: "Do you want the entire Impel Down to be buried with Thor? Mod... seems to have lost his mind."
"Ah? What should we do?"
Bucky panicked even more.
Although he was saddened by Thor's death, Bucky was more concerned about how to escape Impel Down safely.
Jinbei glanced at Baki, who couldn't hide his panic, and said calmly: "Dying for loyalty is a much better way to die than dying of old age in prison."
Bucky could feel Jinbei's will, and then he cried, tears streaming down his face.
He was not moved by Jinbei's display of consciousness, but was simply frightened to tears.
He doesn't want to die here yet! ! !
Two minutes later.
Maude came to the cell in the Extreme Cold Hell, and her cold eyes glanced at the prisoners held in the cell.
Before the war, this place was cleared by Maud.
But there were so many pirates on the sea, and in less than a year, many more pirates were brought in.
Before completing the [last words] left by Thor, Mod needs shadows, the more the better...
... ... .
The second level of Beast Hell in Impel City.
Bang bang!
A loud bang echoed throughout the cell.
The huge movement frightened the prisoners in the cell and couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.
They had no idea what was happening outside, they just smelled danger.
now.
Hancock and Weeble were at each other's throats.
In the distance, on the ground full of holes, lie four temporarily unconscious Jailer Beasts.
Bang!
Weibull's knife without sparing any force was deflected by Hancock and then slashed to the ground.
After the increased power of domineering, a big hole was directly blasted out of the hard floor.
Hancock avoided the air wave that carried the sand and rocks, and retreated quickly, his eyes slightly solemn.
"The attack has absolutely no effect..."
After dozens of rounds of fighting, Hancock hit Weibull head-on many times, but was unable to cause any real damage, and even his petrification ability did not work.
Hancock realized that Weibull's physical strength was different from normal, and his armament was very strong.
The only thing that could make Hancock feel weak was Weibull's knowledge.
