As Barolick Redfield said, Garp is a simple-minded person. People like that tend to be single-minded, doing whatever they think.
Garp was very angry. Barolick Redfield had attacked his promising junior right in front of him. Garp just wanted to beat the guy up.
But when Garp walked up to the cell and saw Barolick Redfield, unable to move and looking dejected inside, his clenched fists slowly loosened.
At this moment, Garp's inner thoughts were written all over his face; he was pitying Barolick Redfield.
But this pity deeply stung Barolick Redfield.
Unlike Shiki, Barolick Redfield did not reveal his incompetent rage, but merely stared intently at Garp.
After a long moment of eye contact, Garp said nothing and turned to leave.
Disturbed by Barolick Redfield, Garp no longer had the mood to reminisce with the prisoners here. He left the Infinite Hell with Mosen and Tokikake.
"Mr. Garp, did I just awaken Conqueror's Haki?" Mosen seized the opportunity to ask.
"Awaken what! Kid, you're overthinking it. That just proved you have the makings of a king. You don't have enough Haki yet to awaken Conqueror's Haki!"
"Then how can I awaken it?"
"Once you defeat a Pirate with a bounty of over 500 million Berries head-on, that should be about it!" Garp replied after some thought.
Mosen's expression stiffened upon hearing this. A Pirate with a bounty of 500 million Berries would be on the level of an Emperor's cadre 22 years later.
Inflation wasn't that severe yet. Wouldn't someone with that bounty have strength comparable to an Emperor's top cadre?
Mosen had a good grasp of his own strength. At his current level, let alone the Calamities or Sweet Commanders, he wasn't even a match for the Tobi Roppo.
"Kid, don't think too much about Conqueror's Haki. Awakening it requires a catalyst. You should focus on improving your strength right now."
"Mr. Garp is right. Mosen, if you have time, you can ask Michael for advice. He has profound attainments in Shigan and is also a swordsman. Having him teach you would be of some help to your growth," Tokikake said.
"I understand. Thank you for your advice."
"Alright! That's enough for today! I should be heading back. Kid, I'm leaving Michael in your care."
"Don't worry, Mr. Garp! I promise I won't let anything happen to Michael."
Garp nodded and left with Tokikake.
After Garp and Tokikake left, Mosen also returned to Extreme Cold Hell.
This trip to the Infinite Hell gave Mosen some understanding of its overall structure and the general locations of the surveillance Den Den Mushi.
Once Golden Lion escapes, the entire Impel Down will inevitably fall into chaos. According to Mosen's plan, he wants to take this opportunity to accomplish three things: First, obtain Golden Lion's Lineage Factor.
Second, use the chaos to send Mia and the other three out of Impel Down.
Third, prepare for his own departure from Impel Down to Navy Headquarters.
However, he still needed to carefully plan the specifics of how to operate.
Besides these, Mosen had another concern: whether or not he should tell the foursome about the Revolutionary Army.
If Garp hadn't come, Mosen would have wanted to reveal everything to the foursome.
Before Garp's arrival, Mosen had thought Michael had been abandoned by the Navy and certainly had no good feelings towards them.
But with Garp's arrival, Mosen realized something was wrong. The Navy hadn't completely given up on Michael. Some Navy members, led by Kong, wanted Michael dead, while Garp and others wanted to protect him.
Michael being kept alive and sent to Impel Down was actually the result of a power struggle between the two sides.
Strictly speaking, Garp's side had lost. Michael was originally a Navy member, and a pirate group wouldn't accept him. Without Paddy protecting him, Michael wouldn't have survived long in the harsh environment of Extreme Cold Hell.
Sending Michael to Extreme Cold Hell was no different from letting him wait for death.
Therefore, Mosen concluded that the person who mediated the situation was on Kong's side, and Garp, trusting this person, had been deceived.
Thinking of this, Mosen was almost certain that the mediator was Sengoku.
Mosen didn't have a good impression of Sengoku, as it was Sengoku who had proposed the Lineage Factor modification experiment to him.
And as soon as his body recovered somewhat, he was immediately assigned to Extreme Cold Hell.
From these two points, it could be seen that Sengoku did not want him to stay in the Navy.
Coupled with Garp's attitude towards him, Mosen guessed that Sengoku's side was likely concerned about his background.
After all, Mosen's parents were killed by Celestial Dragons. It was obvious that Mosen harbored hatred towards the Celestial Dragons.
And the Celestial Dragons were World Nobles. The Navy needed to protect the Celestial Dragons.
For the Navy, a conflict between a Navy member and Celestial Dragons was indeed difficult to handle from Sengoku's perspective.
So Sengoku chose to completely eliminate Mosen as a potential problem, keeping him away from the Navy.
"Sigh! I haven't even gone to Navy Headquarters yet, and I've already landed on the blacklist of a future leader. This undercover work is too difficult," Mosen sighed.
But sighing aside, the work still had to be done. In the following days, Mosen subtly probed Michael, trying to gauge his attitude towards the Navy.
Michael's only answer was that he would never return to the Navy.
Michael knew very well that returning to the Navy would be a burden to Garp, even cause Garp to fall out with Fleet Admiral Kong, and even create internal division within the Navy. It was inappropriate for all reasons.
Therefore, the best choice was not to return to the Navy.
Upon hearing Michael's answer, Mosen realized that Michael still had feelings for the Navy, but he also understood that he could no longer return to the Navy's ranks.
After confirming Michael's thoughts, Mosen decided to tell them about the Revolutionary Army.
That night, instead of practicing Observation Haki as usual, Mosen called the quartet over.
Mosen's expression was very serious at this moment, and the quartet realized Mosen had something to tell them, their expressions also becoming solemn.
"Mia, Paddy, Michael, Ian, we've known each other for a long time, and I can confirm that you are all good people. You only chose to become Pirates out of desperation and ended up being sent to Impel Down.
Now, I want to give you an opportunity, an opportunity to leave Impel Down."
As soon as Mosen finished speaking, the breathing of the four people sitting opposite him became rapid.
Mia, in particular, lunged forward and excitedly grabbed Mosen's collar, saying, "Jailer Mosen, what do you want me to do? As long as I can leave this hellhole, I'll do anything!"
