After Ren Fang entered the Diamond Space, she immediately summoned the Diamond Beast to another location.

The Diamond Beast roamed freely inside, taking up a large area. However, if someone were to come in later, they would be in a significant obstacle.

Therefore, as soon as Ren Fang came in, she immediately took all the Diamond Beast elsewhere.

The Diamond Beast didn't attack Ren Fang. Ren Fang often cultivated here and had become quite familiar with the Diamond Beast. Therefore, when Ren Fang stepped in to drive Diamond Beast away, they wouldn't attack Ren Fang.

Fanxin had sternly warned these creatures not to harm Ren Fang unless given his orders. Naturally, the Diamond Beast dared not do so.

After clearing out a large space, Ren Fang and the others waited inside.

Soon after, many transvestites entered the Diamond Space from outside. Once inside, they began to look around at everything.

Ren Fang then advised them not to act recklessly, lest they anger the Diamond Beast.

Despite Ren Fang's warning, the transgender people behaved well and didn't cause any trouble.

After the last transvestite entered, Fanxin Xin followed him in.

Fanxin glanced at everyone and said, "Alright, now that you're all in my little world, I'll just say a few words, so listen carefully!"

After everyone nodded, Fanxin said, "We're about to leave the Impel Down and go outside. The route I'm taking isn't the regular one; it's through the Blue Gorilla hunting grounds into the sea. That way, I'll be able to escape the Impel Down."

"But there are Sea Kings in the ocean!" a transvestite exclaimed excitedly.

"Hehe, do you think Sea Kings would be of any use to me?" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

"Oh, what do you mean by that? Do you have Sea Kings?" Ivankov asked immediately upon hearing this.

This was a matter of life and death for everyone, and he couldn't afford not to find out. These were all people he had recruited, the fresh blood of the Revolutionary Army. Therefore, he couldn't let them all die here.

"Hehe, don't worry! Sea Kings tries to eat me, it's practically courting death," Fanxin said. "My body is made of diamonds. If it dares to bite, I'll just break its teeth."

"I see, alright then! You decide what to do, as long as you can get us out of here." Ivankov didn't say anything more after hearing this. Fanxin was so confident, he probably wasn't making empty promises. He must have a way.

"Yes, after leaving the Impel Down, my next stop is Marine Headquarters. If anything unexpected happens then, I might release everyone to fight the Marines," Fanxin said. "It's dangerous there, but you don't need to use your full strength. Just focus on keeping your lives, and I believe you'll be fine."

"Is everyone alright? If there are any problems, I'll let you out halfway. You can go wherever you want; I won't interfere."

These people weren't really his concern; he only took them out because of Ivankov. If Ivankov hadn't intervened to rescue the Straw Hat Boy, he wouldn't have bothered with him at all.

He's repaying a debt of gratitude; as for what these people want to do after they leave, he won't care.

"Let's go straight to Marine Headquarters! We also want to see how this battle will end," Ivankov said after a moment's thought.

After he spoke, the transvestites all nodded in agreement, without objection. After all, Ivankov was the leader of this group! Since he had spoken, who would dare to speak recklessly?

"That's good. Alright, everyone, rest here for a few hours! I'll come and get you when we get to Marine Headquarters," Fanxin said with a chuckle.

After saying that, he immediately left the Diamond Space and went outside.

Once outside, he put away the Diamond Space. Then, wielding his twin swords, he headed towards the fourth floor. The exit was on the fourth floor.

He didn't use his soul form, but instead walked around in his true form. He also didn't try to avoid the Den Den Mushi's surveillance. Because he had already finished everything, even if he was discovered, he could escape at any time.

His arrogant behavior was easily noticed by the prison guards.

After the jailers reported this to Magellan, without a word, led his men straight to the fourth level. He planned to capture Fanxin and then tear Fanxin to pieces.

Once Fanxin reached the fourth level, he immediately began causing destruction. He cut off all the other paths, leaving only a corridor leading directly to the kitchen. He then slowly made his way there.

Magellan was originally on the third level, but suddenly he was on the fourth level.

Seeing that Fanxin had blocked all the paths, he was furious. However, he did not stop. He used his ability to create a poisonous passage, and from the original point, he directly passed through the poisonous passage to the other side of the road.

Once he got there, he began the pursuit.

However, while he was able to get through, the jailers were in a bind, because they didn't possess such a monstrous ability! So, they had to fall behind and think of another way.

Magellan pursued Fanxin all the way to the hunting grounds of the Blue Gorilla. By then, all the Blue Gorilla had been killed by Fanxin and lay on the ground, barely alive, powerless to resist, seemingly on the verge of death.

"Fanxin, what are you doing here? Why did you kill the Blue Gorilla?" Magellan shouted angrily.

"Me? Hehe, of course I left?" Fanxin said with a smile.

"Leave? From here, are you courting death?" Magellan didn't turn around for a long time after hearing this. This place was thousands of meters underwater. Let alone whether humans could survive in there, even if they did, they would probably be eaten by Sea Kings. He really couldn't understand what kind of bizarre method Fanxin was using.

"Heh, do you really think I'm courting death?" Fanxin Xin retorted.

"Isn't that so?" Magellan said. He didn't attack immediately because Fanxin had no way out; he was blocking Fan Xin's path, and he could take Fanxin's life at any moment. He wanted to see if Fanxin Xin dared to leave from here.

"Heh, Magellan, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. This place is a deadly path for you, especially for someone with superpowers like you. If you dare to cause trouble here, you're doomed."

Fanxin Xin chuckled and said, "However, for me, this is a path to survival. Once I enter here, I will be free. Even if you want to pursue me, it will be very difficult. Because I am in the sea!"

"Hmph, you're just a human being. Do you think you can survive in the ocean?" Magellan said disdainfully.

"Hehe, it's true that a human cannot survive in the sea. But don't forget, I'm a member of the Soul Clan, and members of the Soul Clan can change bodies. If I merge with a sea creature and take over its body, then I will have the ability to swim in the sea. And I have already obtained the body of an amphibian, the Diamond Beast. I can survive in the dark and in the water. So, not only will I be safe here, but I can actually live quite comfortably." Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

"The Soul Clan? I've heard of that race; they certainly seem like a troublesome one. In that case, I'll kill you first!" Magellan's confidence waned after hearing Fanxin's words. He glared at Fanxin, his face filled with murderous intent. Then, without further ado, he controlled the Poison Dragon to attack Fanxin. He wanted to kill Fanxin before Fanxin could escape into the sea.

However, Fanxin didn't take it to heart. He summoned his Diamond Armor to protect his entire body. At the same time, he wrapped his Haki around himself for double protection.

He leisurely opened the gap and jumped in. The poison landed on him, but it didn't cause any harm, not even a tickle.

"Hehe, Magellan, thank you for the hospitality, thank you for seeing me off, goodbye?" Fanxin looked at Magellan, chuckled, and said. After speaking, he entered the passage and eventually went into the sea.

Magellan stared at Fanxin, his face extremely grim. He had been tricked by Fanxin once again. Now, Fanxin was already in the sea, and it was impossible for him to give chase.

Because outside is an endless ocean, and as an ability user, he simply cannot go there. Even if he did go, as a human, it would be impossible for him to survive in the ocean thousands of meters below; that would be tantamount to suicide.

"Damn it, you bastard!" Magellan was so angry he felt like his lungs were about to explode, staring at the empty passageway.

However, there was no use in being angry. Fanxin had already left, and he could only watch helplessly.

Magellan stayed there for a long time before leaving. Returning to the first level, Magellan approached the tall man.

"You seem so depressed, is it because that Fanxin has gone into hiding again?" The tall man asked curiously, noticing Magellan's unpleasant expression.

"No," Magellan shook his head and said.

"You killed him? You should be happy!" The tall man was even more puzzled and said. Fanxin was a very troublesome fellow, and if Magellan had killed Fanxin, it would be a good thing. He also felt that Magellan should be happy.

"He escaped," Magellan sighed.

"Run away? What do you mean by that?!" The tall man frowned upon hearing this and asked, puzzled.

Magellan said that Fanxin hadn't hidden himself, then immediately added that he had escaped. He was quite confused, unable to tell whether Fanxin had been killed or had escaped.

"Fanxin escaped from the Impel Down and went outside," Magellan said helplessly.

"Impossible! We've secured all the breaches. He couldn't have escaped." The tall man said in disbelief. He had guarded the first level precisely to cut off the criminals' hopes. As long as he was here, no matter how much the criminals struggled inside, it wouldn't matter. With Magellan suppressing them from within, everything would be fine.

So he rested there with complete peace of mind. But now, Magellan says that his Fanxin have escaped, escaped right under his nose. How can he remain calm?

"It's true, he entered the sea through that gap on the fourth level," Magellan said. "I saw him go in with my own eyes, there's absolutely no mistake."

"How is this possible? Isn't he afraid of dying?" the tall man said in disbelief.

"I thought so too. But he just got in like that! There was nothing I could do," Magellan said. "I found it strange at the time, but after he told me he was a member of the Soul Clan, I wasn't surprised anymore."

Even if a member of the Soul Clan is killed, they will not die. This is because they can live as a soul. As long as they find a suitable physical body, they can be reborn as humans.

"The Soul Clan? I see. He must have obtained the body of a sea beast. That's why he's not afraid of water; he won't die there. On the contrary, he can use the seawater to escape the Impel Down," the tall man said upon hearing this.

"Yes, we planned everything, but we never expected him to possess this ability." Magellan shook his head and said, "Now that his Fanxin has entered the vast ocean, where fish can leap freely. It's impossible for us to capture him."

"Yes, and he also knows Conqueror's Haki. So, those Sea Kings won't dare to attack him. He can easily escape from here." The tall man smiled wryly and said.

Since its construction, almost no one has been able to escape from the Impel Down. This time, however, the Impel Down is going to lose face terribly. It's certain that Fanxin has taken quite a few people with him this time. Although it's unknown how he managed it, the Impel Down has completely lost face this time.

"Sigh, well, what's done is done, there's nothing we can do about it. Now, let's clean up the prison!" the tall man said.

Fanxin escaped, and they couldn't possibly pursue him. They were still tasked with guarding Impel Down. Meanwhile, the Navy was preparing for battle against the Whitebeard Pirates and couldn't spare the time. Therefore, they had no choice but to let Fanxin leave; this was an indisputable fact.

"That's true. You stay here and keep watch, I'll go and reorganize things! I'm going to teach them a lesson." Magellan said impatiently.

He's been having a really tough time these past few days because Fanxin has caused so much trouble, throwing the prison into chaos and keeping him extremely busy.

Meanwhile, many prison guards had died in the battle, and now the number of guards was severely limited. He didn't know what to do. The navy didn't have time to deal with these minor matters. Until the war was over, he could only grit his teeth and bear it.

"Alright, go ahead!" The tall man nodded slightly upon hearing this, offering no objection.

He rarely got involved in things because he had no interest in managing them. And Magellan usually handled things inside the prison; he was far more knowledgeable about it than he was. Therefore, he didn't want to interfere.
