Impel Down Incident

More than a week ago.

Impel Down, the Impel Down.

After Blackbeard told the Gorosei about Ace's identity and Whitebeard's serious illness, he was given a chance to enter Impel Down and talk to someone.

After all, the World Government take both of these pieces of news very seriously.

The descendants of the Pirate King are still alive in the world. If Roger's remnants were to be gathered together one day, it would be very troublesome.

That group of people knew things that shouldn't be known to the world.

Whitebeard, as the "World's Strongest Man," is now terminally ill. If he could be dealt with, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the pirate forces.

The World Government's reputation, which had been utterly humiliated by Ulquiorra, could finally be salvaged.

"Blackbeard, what exactly do you want?!"

Inside Impel Down, the Jail Magellan, his entire body radiating poisonous gas, stood opposite Blackbeard.

He was ordered by the World Government to take Blackbeard to Level 6 to meet someone the other party wanted to see.

According to the rules, pirates entering Impel Down must wear Seastone handcuffs, just in case.

But this bastard not only refused the Seastone Handcuffs, but even started fighting and injured his own men.

"Heh~ Hahahaha~"

"Isn't it a bit ridiculous to talk about loyalty with pirates!"

Blackbeard's smile was full of madness.

"What a madman! I don't have time to chat with you here. Since you wanted to come in this way, you're not going to leave!"

Magellan, who hadn't used his hands in a long time, inevitably felt some pain in his stomach and just wanted to resolve the issue as soon as possible.

"Dark Water!"

Blackbeard pressed his palm to the ground, and a large swath of darkness swept towards Magellan.

"Poison Dragon!"

The latter sensed something was wrong, and several dragon-shaped venomous veins formed from a massive amount of toxins sprouted from its body, triggering its attack.

The Poison Dragon was swallowed by darkness, but the gradually spreading poisonous mist put Blackbeard in a stalemate.

"Chief... Chief! Give me your seat... No! There seems to be a riot at LV5! Those prisoners who went missing earlier have reappeared!"

Deputy Commissioner Hannibal, who looked like a demon, rushed over with a large pregnant belly and a look of panic on his face.

Even so, she still habitually spoke her mind.

"Huh? Why did they all choose today, one after another!"

Magellan was a little annoyed. He didn't have time to chat with Hannibal. Although Blackbeard was no match for him, his abilities were a bit troublesome and he couldn't defeat him in the short term.

"Send someone to release Shiryu and let him handle it!"

The situation is not optimistic. If I wait to deal with this bastard first, who knows what kind of chaos will ensue below.

Left with no other choice, Magellan had to temporarily grant the wild dog's numerous requests for release, since the group of prisoners below was beyond Hannibal's ability to handle.

"Learn!"

Hannibal also realized that the battle was too intense to stay any longer, so he agreed and hurriedly left again.

"Magellan, it's a waste to leave your strength here. Would you like to become my companion?"

Blackbeard was slightly out of breath. He knew his opponent was strong, but he hadn't expected him to be this strong. He wasn't confident he could win.

"Don't joke around, you scumbag!"

"This is Impel Down that has buried the dreams of countless arrogant and conceited pirates like you, and you will be no exception!"

Magellan's poison has already spread.

"Stop joking!"

"Human dreams never end!"

Blackbeard relentlessly propelled the darkness forward, resisting it.

At this point, it's LV6.

Has Magellan run into some serious trouble?

Amidst the envious glances of his fellow inmates, Shiryu was led out of his cell, put back into the Chief Warden's uniform, and retrieved his own sword.

"Yes! We're fighting an intruder up there, and coincidentally, there's been an internal conflict at LV5, so I'm sending you to handle it!"

The jailers answered tremblingly.

"Phew~ It's only now that they've gone this far that they've agreed to my release?"

He lit a cigar, took a deep drag, and then his figure flashed by, splattering the guards' blood everywhere.

He then ignored the escaped prisoners and began to climb up the stairs, one floor at a time.

At this moment, in the upper levels, the battle between the two sides is almost over.

Blackbeard was completely outmatched, and he was even considering running away. This place was clearly not suitable for continuing the fight.

Moreover, with Magellan covered in toxins, Blackbeard had no way to attack him. In terms of Haki, Blackbeard was not yet a match for him, and getting close to him would not be easy.

However, it's still easy to run away, as there are warships docked outside.

"Shiryu, is everything taken care of down here? I can manage on my own here."

Magellan noticed that he was showing signs of retreating and was about to launch another attack when he suddenly realized that the guy had already come up here, and thought that he had also come to help.

Unexpectedly, a long knife pierced through his body from behind.

"I have no intention of continuing to be some damn Chief Warden!"

Shiryu swirled his longsword, and just as his opponent was about to reach out to retaliate, he delivered a Haki kick that sent him flying.

"What a close call in life! If I hadn't come, you wouldn't have been a match for Magellan. Don't underestimate him."

Shiryu a knife in one hand, exhaling smoke, and seemed to have no ill intentions towards Blackbeard.

"Fate is truly a wonderful thing, always unpredictable! Heh~ Hahahaha~"

"Join me, Shiryu! I believe we'll be great partners!"

Blackbeard extended an invitation.

The deaths of Burgess and the others were of no importance to him; he was a man who lived for every next moment.

"Since I've already reached the end here anyway, I've been waiting to meet a man like you!"

In him, Shiryu saw ambition and witnessed his courage.

"Heh~ Hahahaha~"

"Let's go to LV6! We need more companions!"

Magellan's fighting strength had been greatly reduced at this point. Under the repeated attacks from both sides, coupled with the aftereffects of overusing the toxins, he was severely injured and collapsed to the ground.

Shiryu didn't kill him; he simply took the key from him and then went down to the lower level with Blackbeard.

"Let's make things even more chaotic! Heh~ Hahahaha~"

They casually tossed down a bunch of keys, which landed right in front of Buggy.

Along the way, countless prison guards tried to stop them, but the absolute difference in strength meant that they couldn't even buy them time.

Until they reached LV3, an unexpected figure stood before them.

"Hannibal, are you trying to make an enemy of me? This is Magellan's grave mistake, shouldn't you be glad?"

Shiryu found it rather interesting that this Isshin, who was only thinking about becoming the director, dared to stop him even knowing the difference in their strength.

"Hmph! You actually think I'm relieved that such a mess has occurred in Impel Down?"

"If you scum are allowed to return to the sea, countless civilians will worry about their families every day. How can I be happy about that!"

"Hannya Fire Dance!"
