Ten minutes after the virus invasion, Gu Ding looked at the restricted images appearing on the screens in the monitoring room and dialed the emergency number inside the prison, which was Old Henry's direct line. "Warden, I'm Gu Ding, the new guy, and I'm in the monitoring room right now. But... I just found out that there seems to be some problem with the images in the monitoring room..."

"I know, I'll be right there. You notify the network maintenance staff and tell him to figure something out." Hearing Old Henry hang up the call somewhat nervously, Gu Ding guessed that he had probably already heard about the system being invaded by a virus on other planets. However, it didn't matter if he knew, it wouldn't change the fact that the system was about to collapse.

A few minutes later, Old Henry arrived at the monitoring room, but he also received a message from the network maintenance staff that the system had been completely breached.

"Unlock all prison checkpoints and restraint devices. Pay attention to Uncle Kane's location and generate a route map for me," Gu Ding secretly instructed Sea Emperor.

"Warden, I'm going to the restroom." Gu Ding said hello and left the monitoring room, walking towards the restroom. Old Henry looked at the monitoring screen, clearly somewhat dazed, and had no intention of paying attention to Gu Ding. Upon reaching the restroom, Gu Ding locked a stall from the inside, took off his intern police uniform, and changed into a dirty prisoner's outfit. After changing, Gu Ding didn't come out immediately but sat on the toilet lid, watching the progress of events through the monitoring screen controlled by Sea Emperor.

After the prison checkpoints and restraints went out of control, the prisoners quickly began to riot. In less than five minutes, prisoners were rushing towards the guards' office area.

Gu Ding turned off the monitoring. Hearing the noise approaching, he knew that the prisoners had already started causing chaos in the office area, so he pushed open the door of the restroom stall.

Just then, the restroom door was suddenly pushed open, and a guard in a police uniform locked the door from the inside with his backhand, breathing heavily. Gu Ding's heart tightened. He took a Shadow Step, silently moved behind the other person, and delivered a hand chop to the back of their neck. The guard instantly fainted.

Gu Ding dragged him to the side, then opened the locked door and left the restroom. To his left was the guards' office area, where there was a lot of noise. Gu Ding walked to the right, which was the area where prisoners were held.

Sea Emperor had locked onto Kane's location early on. Gu Ding ran towards that direction. Along the way, it was a mess. To vent their dissatisfaction, the prisoners had smashed almost everything along the way. Water dispensers, coffee machines, beverage machines... almost nothing was intact.

He also encountered many fierce-looking prisoners along the way, but fortunately, Gu Ding was wearing a prisoner's uniform, so no one bothered him. He easily found Kane in the crowd.

"Uncle Kane!" Gu Ding shouted loudly.

Kane was frowning, hesitating at a fork in the road about which way to go. Hearing someone calling his name, he turned his head in confusion. In his impression, the only people he knew on Deep Sea Star were Rose and her group, but this time only he was captured. He wasn't sure why he would have acquaintances in this prison. When he saw Gu Ding, the expression on his face clearly froze.

"Little Gu Ding, why are you here?" Kane seemed a little confused.

"Come with me, I'll explain after we get out." Gu Ding led Kane towards the guards' office building. "This chaos is only temporary, we must leave as soon as possible."

As Gu Ding spoke, he secretly had Sea Emperor notify Kane's crew members to be ready to set sail at any time.

On Kane's ship, Kaviel, who received the strange message, was a little surprised. He was about to speak when he heard someone next to him shout, "Someone just sent me a message saying that the boss is coming out soon and told us to be ready to set sail at any time."

"I received it too!" Many people then made the same sound.

"Quick! Start the power equipment and prepare to set sail! As soon as the boss arrives, we'll leave immediately!" As the deputy leader of the Pirate Crew, Kaviel immediately made the correct response.

"Deputy Leader, are you sure this information is true?" one person couldn't help but ask.

"I'm not sure, but I choose to believe it." Kaviel looked intently in the direction of Deep Sea Star Prison.

Gu Ding led Kane towards the guards' office area. Kane didn't know where the exit was, so he could only follow closely behind Gu Ding.

"We'll go to the guards' office area first to change into police uniforms, and then we can walk out of the main entrance openly," Gu Ding told Kane his plan. The reason for choosing to change clothes in the guards' office area was that although the guards' office area had been attacked by prisoners, the number of prisoners was not large compared to other areas. The only exit of the prison also had to pass through the office area, and furthermore, there were other guards in this area attracting the prisoners' attention, so the chance of being surrounded by prisoners was much smaller.

Soon, the two arrived at the guards' office area. Gu Ding slipped into a restroom, and Kane immediately followed. Gu Ding took out two sets of guard uniforms from his Storage Space and threw one to Kane. "After you change, go back to the port immediately. I've already told Kaviel and the others that you'll be there soon, and they should have already started the spaceship's power system waiting for you."

The two quickly changed clothes in the stalls. Gu Ding led Kane towards the exit.

Just after leaving the restroom, they encountered three fierce-looking prisoners. The three thought the two were real guards and rushed towards them.

Kane just shifted his feet, his body flashing repeatedly. Three hand chops landed on the necks of the three almost simultaneously, so fast that Gu Ding's eyes couldn't even catch it. The bodies of the three immediately went limp. A hint of envy flashed in Gu Ding's eyes, but he didn't hesitate and led Kane towards the door.

After that, the two successfully exited the Deep Sea Star Prison gate. Kane raised an eyebrow. "Although I don't know how you did it, thank you, Uncle. They will find out sooner or later that you did this. Come with us."

"No, Uncle Kane, I'll be fine, don't worry. Go quickly, your partners are still waiting for you," Gu Ding waved his hand freely and grinned, revealing his signature smile.

Guessing that Gu Ding might have other ways to escape, Kane didn't insist further. He waved at Gu Ding, and with a few leaps, he disappeared.

Just then, two prisoners also rushed out of the prison gate. Seeing Gu Ding's uniform, they didn't pay too much attention and seemed to have no intention of getting entangled, leaving. However, one of them glanced in the direction Kane had just left.

Seeing the two leave, Gu Ding didn't care. He lowered his head and sent a message to Aunt Rose, "Aunt, Uncle Kane has successfully escaped from prison, you don't need to worry anymore."
