Marine Headquarters, Marineford. A marine soldier ran anxiously into the fleet admiral's office, and as it happened, the fleet admiral's office door was open. "This is bad, Fleet Admiral Sengoku," the marine soldier reported. "Blackbeard Teach, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, is now missing, and at the same time, one of our naval warships docked at the shore is gone." "What? Blackbeard Teach?" Hearing this, Sengoku's face darkened instantly in a split second. Sengoku had long known that Blackbeard Teach harbored malicious intentions when he originally became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, but he also knew which of the people who became Warlords of the Sea would be truly sincere? Therefore, Sengoku chose to turn a blind eye to it, but he never expected that right at this critical juncture when they were about to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates, someone would pull such a stunt? Just like that, the combat strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was reduced by another one, when there had originally been seven of them. Now the number of participating Warlords of the Sea was left with only four!! You could say that nearly half of them were missing. From this action alone, you could already see just how huge the drawbacks of the Seven Warlords of the Sea were. Sengoku said with a gloomy expression, "Blackbeard Teach, Boa Hancock, as for people like you who harbor ulterior motives at critical moments, I will settle accounts with you after the fact." "Now pass down the order, pull back all our forces, and prepare for battle." "Yes, Fleet Admiral Sengoku." Upon receiving the order, the marine soldier immediately ran out of the fleet admiral's office. ... ... Time ticked away bit by bit. Luo Chen controlled the Thousand Sunny of the Straw Hat Pirates, arriving at a location one hundred meters above Impel Down. Franky said in shock, "Is that Impel Down down there? What a magnificent building!!" "Yeah! I heard that countless powerful criminals are locked up inside here," Usopp said in fear. Luffy slammed his fists together and said, "Yosh! Everyone, let's get ready to land on Impel Down!" Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates wore smiles, except for Luo Chen, whose gaze remained calm as he looked at Impel Down below. Luo Chen's body slowly floated up and flew toward Impel Down. Luffy hurriedly shouted, "Luo Chen, wait for us! How are we supposed to get down?" "It looks like we'll just have to figure out a way down ourselves," Sanji replied as he lit a cigarette. Robin said, "Luo Chen probably has his own objective as well. Bringing us to Impel Down is most likely just a convenience for him." Several naval warships docked around Impel Down below also discovered that someone was invading the prison. The alarm immediately sounded off!! After all, an invasion of Impel Down was a very serious matter. When Luo Chen landed at the main gate of Impel Down, his Conqueror's Haki instantly swept outward, shocking the marine soldiers on the several warships and knocking them all unconscious. Only a few commissioned officers among the marines were barely able to hold on. Marines below the rank of commissioned officer simply could not withstand the impact of Conqueror's Haki. As for those remaining commissioned officers, Luo Chen didn't bother paying them any more attention. He drew the great grade sword Kogarashi and swung it... "Slash Wave." A massive flying slash struck the main gate of Impel Down. Boom!! ... ... Amidst a burst of explosions, the main gate of Impel Down was completely destroyed!! Luo Chen just swaggered right in. After Luo Chen went inside, the Float-Float Fruit ability he had applied to the Thousand Sunny of the Straw Hat Pirates was also released!! The moment the Float-Float Fruit ability was lifted, the Thousand Sunny plummeted heavily from a height of one hundred meters. Had the Thousand Sunny not been built using the Adam Tree, even an impact of this magnitude would likely have caused damage to the ship. Brook said, "Luo Chen has done us a huge favor! The surrounding marine soldiers have all been cleared out." "But there are still a few guys left," Zoro said, looking around at the surrounding marine warships. Usopp suggested, "Let me stay behind! I'll protect the Thousand Sunny and take care of those marines who haven't been dealt with yet." At this moment, Luffy said directly, "Then Usopp, Nami, Robin, Chopper, and Franky, you five stay behind." "Me, Zoro, Sanji, and Brook, the four of us will go rescue my brother." The safety of the Thousand Sunny was far too important to them; it was also their retreat route, and people had to be left behind to guard it. Impel Down Level 4 Control Room. Warden Magellan stared at the screen and said, "Intruders, Luo Chen, along with the Straw Hat Pirates? How foolish." "Fortunately, two days ago, Fleet Admiral Sengoku sent people to transfer Fire Fist Ace to Marine Headquarters, otherwise if it was invaded right now, there might really be a certain level of risk." ... ... The moment Luo Chen and the Straw Hat Pirates invaded Impel Down, they had already been monitored. After all, as the world's largest prison, Impel Down basically had close to one hundred percent all-around surveillance. Vice Warden Hannibal stepped forward and said, "Warden, let me, the vice warden, go suppress the intruders!!" Vice Warden Hannibal had deliberately stepped forward at this time because he also had a small objective of his own. That was to suppress these intruders and rack up these contributions. Then he could squeeze Magellan out of the warden's position, and he, Hannibal, would be able to become the warden of Impel Down. Just thinking about this made Hannibal extremely excited from head to toe. However, Magellan said, "No, Hannibal, you stay and stand watch to avoid any mishaps. It's faster if I go suppress the intruders." It wasn't that Magellan didn't want Hannibal to suppress the intruders, but rather that Luo Chen was not a simple figure. To be able to use Conqueror's Haki to clear the field the very moment he invaded Impel Down. Could a pirate who could use Conqueror's Haki be a simple pirate?? Therefore, Magellan refused to let Hannibal go suppress them, also to prevent Hannibal from making a meaningless and futile sacrifice. What Magellan didn't know, however, was that deep inside, Hannibal was already furious at this very moment. You were already the warden, and you still wanted to steal the achievements of him, the vice warden?? Magellan ignored Hannibal, boarded the elevator, and prepared to go suppress the intruders.
