Infiltrators

Fish-Man Island has day and night. When night falls on land, the Sun Tree Eve is unable to transmit sunlight to its roots 10,000 meters underwater, and Fish-Man Island will be shrouded in darkness.

As darkness fell, Ace and the others stayed in the prison to recuperate.

As darkness fades and light shines once more upon Fish-Man Island, dawn arrives.

The people in the prison slowly rose, their faces expressionless, but privately they became wary.

Da da da.

Two hours later, footsteps could be heard outside.

"They're here."

Nami picked up the conch shell from her waist, put it to her lips and blew gently. A bubble appeared, enveloping her, and the next moment, she vanished without a trace.

"This is it."

The people outside stopped outside the cell door. The voice of the First Prince Samester, rang out, and then the key was inserted into the lock. With a click, the cell door opened.

"It really was Ace."

Leading the group was a World Government official in a black suit. He stood there, looking somewhat excited. "Heckle, Cecilia, there are so many people! Really, really..."

The official was so excited he was speechless. He had not only captured Ace, but also uprooted Baroque Works.

The navy made such a big effort but couldn't capture a single one, yet they caught them so easily.

One can imagine how big a reward he will receive this time.

"They're all using Seastone Handcuffs?"

The official looked at the Fukaboshi beside him and asked with concern.

Fukaboshi nodded and said, "They are all Devil Fruit User. Once they are handcuffed, they have no abilities. There is no need to worry about them resisting."

"That's good."

The official looked pleased and then said, "Then I'll trouble the eldest prince to help carry them onto the ship."

"Leave it to me."

Fukaboshi waved his hand, and mermaid and Fish-Man soldiers stepped forward and captured them one by one.

"Get your dirty hands off me."

"Don't want."

"Despicable and shameless."

"You betrayed your father."

Faced with their actions, Ace and the others cursed loudly, but Fukaboshi ignored them and ordered the Fish-Man soldiers to take them all away.

"Walk."

Fish-Man soldiers shoved and jostled Ace and the others, while World Government agents wore smug expressions as they walked through the corridor, up the stairs, and out of the prison gate.

Suddenly exposed to the sunlight, Heckle and his companions squinted, but were pushed along until they reached the gates of the Dragon Palace City.

But at that moment, one of the Fish-Man soldiers suddenly flashed.

Bang, bang, bang, bang.

The surrounding Fish-Man soldiers were all sent flying backward, falling to the ground in the distance and unable to get up.

Swoosh, swoosh.

Two figures emerged from behind the World Government official, one in front and one behind, and pounced on the Fish-Man.

Not only that, the Fukaboshi also pounced on the other side.

Bang, bang.

The figure blocked two World Government agents, and the three figures instantly clashed.

Who is it?

World Government officials looked grim.

"It seems to be a spy," Fukaboshi said. "Mr. English, please step back a bit, I will assist your men."

"Go quickly, go quickly!" English shouted immediately.

Fukaboshi grasped the trident and lunged at his opponent.

But just then, a figure appeared beside Ace, took out a key, and inserted it into Ace's handcuffs.

"There are still people..."

With a roar, Fukaboshi turned and lunged at Ace again, thrusting his trident toward Ace's head.

But just as the Fukaboshi's trident was about to touch Ace.

Click.

Ace's handcuffs were unlocked and fell to the ground.

Bang.

Ace's hand struck the Fukaboshi's trident, blocking the Fukaboshi's attack.

boom.

The next moment, raging flames rushed directly towards Fukaboshi.

"Not good."

Fukaboshi immediately retreated, grabbed the World Government official, and walked backward.

"Fire Dragon".

Ace snorted coldly and suddenly swept his right hand forward.

Wow.

His entire arm transformed into a giant Fire Dragon, spinning in the air as it attacked the two agents.

"Retreat."

Faced with flames, the two agents had no choice but to retreat temporarily and create distance between themselves.

The traitor then retreated, allowing the Fire Dragon to pass in front of him and enter the encirclement of flames. The Fire Dragon then continued to advance, entangled Heckle and the others as well.

"What exactly happened?"

The official's face darkened upon seeing this.

Fukaboshi clutched his chest and said, "It seems there's a traitor infiltrated the Dragon Palace City."

"Damn it."

The official gritted his teeth and said, "We can't let them get away; we have to keep them here."

"Of course, we've already offended Whitebeard, so we can't let them leave."

Fukaboshi snorted coldly, then suddenly picked up the conch shell from his waist and started blowing into it.

Waaaaaah!

The sound carried into the distance.

Ding ding ding ding ding.

A bell rang out in the distance, its sound echoing throughout the entire Dragon Palace City.

Splash splash splash splash splash.

A line of soldiers charged toward them. The tall King Neptune personally led his army toward them, and the Second Prince Prince Hoshi, and the Third Prince Prince Fanche, also arrived with their troops, surrounding the area of flames.

"What happened?" King Neptune shouted as he drew near.

"Someone saved Ace and the others." Fukaboshi clutched his chest, where blood was trickling down between his fingers.

"Damn it, we can't let them leave."

Neptune shouted loudly, then looked at the Fukaboshi and asked, "My child, you should go and get treatment first."

"I can't leave yet."

Fukaboshi shook his head, looked at the flames in the distance, and said seriously, "They are very strong. If we want to keep them here, we must mobilize all our forces."

English, who was standing to the side, originally wanted to complain about them letting someone infiltrate the Dragon Palace City, but seeing that King Neptune had brought so many soldiers, and that Fukaboshi was enduring the pain to help them, he sighed and said, "I hope King Neptune will capture them."

"Certainly."

Neptune said solemnly, "We have no way out; we must capture them."

Shashasha.

As their voices rang out, the flames gradually died down, revealing the figures inside.

Ace, Heckley, Vivi with a mask, Elken, Christmas, and Bon Clay Cecilia, among others.

Not only that, there's also Nami, and a tall Fish-Man.

"It is Namul."

Upon seeing that person, Fukaboshi immediately shouted.

"Who is that?" English asked, puzzled.

The agent next to him said, "He is the captain of the 8th Division of the Whitebeard Pirates."

"Whitebeard?" English looked surprised.

"Not only that, that's Nami, also a member of the Whitebeard Pirates," Fukaboshi said, pointing to the busty woman in the distance.

"Damn it."

English's face darkened. With the Whitebeard Pirates involved, things were likely in dire straits.

"King Neptune, you have betrayed your father."

Ace stepped forward, his right hand blazing with fierce flames.

"We are just doing what the World Government orders."

Neptune said with a gloomy expression, "Don't forget, we are Affiliated Nation of the World Government."

"I see."

Ace said coldly, "You've brought this upon yourselves. I'm going to punish you on behalf of Daddy."

With Ace's words, everyone rubbed shoulders, ready for a big battle.

"Okay, let's give it a try."

Neptune said coldly, "All Fish-Man soldiers, prepare."

According to the script, Ace and his crew should then defeat the surrounding army with Inazuma speed, capture King Neptune, and then coerce him into providing ships to leave.

But at that moment, the sound of conch shells rang out outside the gate, followed by a series of bells.

Clang! Clang clang! Clang clang clang!

Just like before, this also indicates the presence of an intruder.

What's going on?

King Neptune was stunned. How could there be intruders?
