Chapter 3

"What is he doing?" Marigold was confused.

Hancock and Sandersonia were also unclear, the two staring blankly at Chu Yang.

The uneven dungeon stone slabs suddenly cracked, and in the gaps, trees and vines grew wildly and savagely, drowning the dungeon like a tide.

The usually indestructible cell doors were more fragile than tofu at this time, being crushed by the trees in just a few moments.

The sudden change stunned the three sisters, who stood in place, not daring to move, thinking some monster had appeared in the dungeon.

Under Chu Yang's control, the trees left a path for people to enter and exit. He stood outside the cell door and shouted: "Hurry up and come out."

Hancock, who had come to her senses, crawled out from the lush forest and asked with suspicion: "Are you a Devil Fruit user?"

"No time to talk about this now!" Chu Yang avoided answering and said: "Hurry up and take everyone to escape!"

"Thank you!" Hancock took a deep look at Chu Yang, as if to carve Chu Yang's appearance into her mind, before taking her two sisters and leaving.

Chu Yang used Wood Release to destroy all the cell doors in a short time.

The slaves who had been locked up for a long time surged out and fled outside the dungeon.

A massive crowd formed a black wave; from a distance, it was extremely terrifying, and that was exactly the effect Chu Yang wanted.

As the last person escaped the dungeon, Chu Yang set fire to this place filled with sin. With a large number of trees as fuel, the fire spread very rapidly.

Chu Yang took advantage of the night to set fires all the way, using Wood Release to lead the fire to various parts of Mary Geoise.

However, what Chu Yang didn't know was...

In another part of the city, someone else was doing the same thing.

In the night, the tall figure appeared particularly burly under the reflection of the firelight.

The red skin and appearance, different from ordinary people, signaled that the other's identity was not an ordinary human.

Fisher Tiger! Tiger, who had always advocated for freedom, dreamed of becoming a traveler, but shortly after he started traveling, Tiger was caught by human traffickers and became a slave.

For three whole years, Tiger suffered inhuman abuse and saw the greed and sin deep in human nature, which made him extremely disappointed in humans.

But compared to hatred, Tiger wanted more to liberate other races who had the same experience as him.

This was also why he returned again after successfully escaping the Holy Land.

Tiger wanted to liberate all the slaves here.

Tiger, holding great ideals, had just released some slaves and set fire to the cages, when he discovered that the other side of the city was already ablaze! Who is it?

Actually one step faster than me? Looking at the increasingly out-of-control fire, Tiger realized that if he didn't hurry to save the slaves, everyone would be burned alive.

"Who the hell set this fire?" Tiger was chased everywhere by the flames and cursed angrily.

But fortunately, when he was a slave before, Tiger knew the layout of the Holy Land like the back of his hand. Although time was tight, he still saved most of the slaves.

The remaining slaves also took advantage of the chaos to escape on their own.

Tiger, having achieved his goal, was preparing to escape the Holy Land.

Not far away, a team of Marines walked toward him, surrounding Tiger.

"You have a lot of nerve, actually daring to release so many slaves on your own!" The Colonel in a Marine coat roared in anger.

Tiger said righteously: "They were originally innocent people, abducted by human traffickers to the Holy Land. As Marines, you not only don't protect the weak, but also help the evildoers. It's a disgrace!"

The Marine Colonel sneered: "Can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Compared to releasing slaves, your crime of burning the Holy Land is even greater. You're a dead man, surrender now!"

Tiger was stunned for a moment and said angrily: "I didn't set the fire!"

"Still quibbling when you're about to die! Since you don't intend to surrender, don't blame me for getting tough!" The Marine Colonel ignored Tiger's defense and ordered his subordinates to attack. In an instant, a group of people surrounded him, and dozens of muskets were aimed at Tiger and fired simultaneously.

And Tiger calmly began to perform Fish-Man Karate.

The air was grabbed by Tiger and turned into a violent airflow. With a forceful wave, it instantly shook toward the surroundings.

Countless bullets were hit by the airflow and became shaky, falling to the ground like raindrops, pitter-patter.

The Marine Colonel's face was very ugly; Tiger's skill exceeded his expectations.

The Marine Colonel said coldly: "Daring to sneak into the Holy Land alone to commit arson, you are indeed not an ordinary Fish-Man."

Seeing that the other was so certain, Tiger couldn't be bothered to explain. He had come here to liberate slaves anyway, and now it wasn't much different.

The long-range attack didn't work, so the Colonel ordered the soldiers to launch a melee attack.

As a Fish-Man, Tiger's physical functions were 10 times that of a normal human. He knew that these soldiers couldn't take Tiger down.

But that didn't matter; as long as he delayed for a little while longer, strong Marines would naturally come to solve this guy.

The Colonel just wanted a piece of the action and didn't intend to fight Tiger to the death.

On the other side, Tiger saw that the enemy commander hadn't moved for a long time and only sent some small fry to deal with him, and immediately understood his thoughts.

"Quick battle, quick decision!"

Tiger tried to break out in one go, but always fell into the human-sea tactic, just like stepping into a quagmire with both feet, unable to move.

The Marine Colonel stood outside the crowd and smiled proudly: "Don't make meaningless resistance; this is better for everyone."

Tiger's face was very ugly. The longer time passed, the more prosperous the fire became, which meant that a powerful Marine general was about to arrive.

"If I have to go back and continue being a slave, I'd rather die here!" Tiger gritted his teeth and stared at the group of Marines. Even if he died, he would drag a few people down with him, especially that leading Marine Colonel.

Just as Tiger was preparing for a desperate fight, the ground under his feet began to tremble violently.

I saw one rough tree after another rising from the ground, instantly overturning the Marine camp, and countless soldiers flew up.

The Colonel, surrounded by trees, shouted in panic: "What the hell is this?"

In the next second, he was drowned by the sea of trees! This sudden scene was truly terrifying, and Tiger had to stare at these strange trees, ready for battle.

"You're still not leaving, what are you staying here for?"

At this time, a human boy crawled out of the forest, glanced at Tiger, and hurried away from the other side.

Tiger was stunned for a moment, then followed behind the boy, shuttling between the trees.

At the same time, the World Government, the Five Elders, were furious!

"Unreasonable, actually daring to kill and set fires in Mary Geoise, simply trampling the dignity of the Celestial Dragons underfoot!"

"Which bold guy is it, have you found out?"

"According to the patrol team's report, it seems like a Fish-Man guy is taking the opportunity to release slaves!"

"Damn Fish-Man race, they've become more and more arrogant in recent years!"

"Where is Sakazuki? Tell him to come over quickly and catch these slave criminals!"

"The city is full of fire, wouldn't calling Sakazuki over just add to the chaos? Better to let Kuzan come over to handle it!"
