Magellan and the other high-ranking officials of Impel Down watched in solemn silence as Barrett and his entourage left Impel Down and passed through the Gates of Justice. Only then did someone speak up, asking Magellan, "Warden Magellan, are we really sure it's alright to just let this monster, Barrett, out of the prison like this?!"

"All of this! It's all on Commander-in-Chief Xia's orders!"

"Since it's an order from above, we, as subordinates of a lower-level government agency, only need to strictly follow the order! We don't need to think about anything else..."

Magellan responded seriously to this.

"gone back!"

After saying this, Magellan turned and left.

"As ordered!"

Led by Magellan, the wardens, guards, cell leaders, and cell supervisors of Impel Down Prison then headed into the dark and gloomy prison.

Among them was a newly appointed prison floor supervisor who had been transferred from outside the prison. Looking at Magellan, who was walking briskly and rushing towards the prison, he asked in confusion, "That's strange, why is Commissioner Magellan walking so fast?"

"Hehe, Director Magellan did his best to hold it in when Commander-in-Chief Char arrived! He's reached his limit now! If he doesn't go to the toilet soon, he'll poop in his own pocket..."

In response, a prison executive who was familiar with Magellan gave a truthful answer.

"Forehead……"

As the high-ranking official finished speaking, the newcomer was left speechless.

On the other side, on the warship.

Where should I get it?

After boarding Char's warship, Barrett casually sat on the sofa that Char had placed on the deck, acting as if they were old friends, and asked Char a question.

"Let's find a deserted island nearby..."

Char ignored Barrett and instead gave orders to CP0 behind him.

"As ordered!"

Upon receiving Char's order, CP0 immediately responded in a low voice.

Soon, the World Government warship carrying Char and Barrett arrived at an island located in the first half of the Grand Line.

Although Char said he would find a deserted island nearby...

However, in reality, everything was prepared in advance by Char.

"I won, now you work for me!"

"I've lost. You can leave on your own. I won't stop you."

"Ok?"

Barrett nodded slightly, then unleashed his Observation Haki, sweeping across the entire island.

"Heh! I respect you as a real man!"

After clearing the deserted island and confirming there were no ambushes, Barrett grinned and whispered to Xia.

At this moment, Barrett had already acknowledged Char's worth to some extent in his heart...

"Ha ha……"

Char said nothing to this, only smiled slightly.

Yes, Char did not arrange any external support on the island!

But that's all; they simply didn't arrange anything on the island.

at the same time.

It is located 3,000 meters below the sea level of the island.

A naval warship, enveloped in bubbles from the Sabaody Archipelago, is hovering here.

On the warship.

"Oh dear, I wonder if the battle up there has started yet? And how it went..."

"Don't worry! Commander-in-Chief Xia's plans have never gone wrong!"

"Yes! Commander-in-Chief Char is always so meticulous; even Vegapunk speaks highly of him~"

"If Char weren't a Celestial Dragon, but a righteous Marine soldier, perhaps he would have ushered in a completely new era, who knows..."

Vice Admiral Kuzan, Vice Admiral Sakazuki, Vice Admiral Borsalino, and Vice Admiral Garp stood on the deck of this naval warship, awaiting the outcome of the naval battle...

Once Char loses to Barrett, it will be the turn of the four of them to make their move!

Today will be the day Barrett dies!

Yes, Char had no intention of letting Barrett leave.

Either Barrett becomes his top enforcer.

Either let Barrett, this monster who claims to be the successor of the devil, perish at the bottom of the sea...

on the island.

After Char and Barrett arrived on the island, Char told Stussy and the CP0 members to leave first, and the two of them stood in the center of the island, facing off against each other.

"Humph……"

Barrett glanced at Xia, who had been resting his right hand on the hilt of his sword since landing on the island, and sneered. He then beckoned to Xia with his finger and said in a deep voice, "Since you treated me to a meal earlier, I'll give you a chance to strike first! Remember, you only have one chance. I'll stand here and let you do as you please, I absolutely will not retaliate..."

"you sure?"

After hearing Barrett's words, a hint of suspicion flashed in Xia's eyes.

"Of course! Who do you think I am?"

"I am the infamous heir to the devil, Douglas Barrett..."

Barrett crossed his arms over his chest, faced Char, raised his chin, and shouted triumphantly.

"God avoids!"

However, before Barrett could say anything, Char had already drawn Ace, one of the twelve great weapons of the highest order, from his waist in the blink of an eye, and unleashed a black, crescent-shaped slash in Barrett's direction.

"Wait, that knife in your hand, could it be Captain Roger's..."

The moment Char drew Ace from his waist, Barrett's gaze was immediately drawn to the jet-black blade. He stared at the familiar-looking blade in Char's hand, momentarily stunned, before incredulously revealing its origin.

"boom!"

Before Barrett could finish speaking, the dark slash had already struck him. Barrett coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood, and then the dark crescent-shaped blade dragged his strong body toward the edge of the deserted island...

Yeah, even if gods avoid me, I won't! I'm more awesome than gods!

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

Anything that blocked Barrett's path, whether it was a large tree, a rock, or even a mountain, was smashed to pieces! Barrett flew a kilometer before finally getting stuck in the middle of a huge rock a hundred meters high.

"Cough cough..."

Barrett was embedded in the boulder, blood continuously gushing from his mouth. It took him a full minute to recover, then he used all his strength to dig himself out of the crack in the rock, falling to the ground…

"Ding!"

Just as Barrett knelt down on one knee, accompanied by a crisp, clear shout that came from the vibration of a sword, Xia Ya, holding a sharp blade, had already landed on his shoulder, aiming at his neck.

"Want to come again, Barrett...?"

Char lowered his voice and looked at Barrett, who had carelessly taken a direct hit from his full-force Divine Dodge, and asked.

"Pooh……"

"Damn it, I was careless!"

Barrett spat a mouthful of blood onto the flower bushes beside him, his heart filled with resentment.

“I remember now! Your repulsive red hair…”

"I've seen you before, haven't I? On Captain Roger's ship!"

"You're that red-haired brat who always plays with that red-nosed little devil..."

"I never expected that Captain Roger would pass his sword on to you!"

"He also taught you his profound secret, the Divine Avoidance..."

"That strike you just delivered had seven or eight tenths of the force from Roger's ship!"

Barrett glared at Char and said angrily.

"Oh, you mean Shanks?"

"You've got it wrong, that's my brother..."

"I only inherited the skills from Roger after the Roger Pirates disbanded."

"Xia explained softly."

"watch out!"

Just as Char was explaining, Barrett seemed to have found an opportunity. He leaned back, widening the distance between himself and Char, and then, while bracing himself with his hands on the ground, he immediately raised his leg and kicked Ace away from Char's hands.

"Haha! You underestimated Xia..."

Barrett laughed as he watched Char lose his weapon. He seemed to have found his opportunity and swung his fist, which was wrapped in Armament Haki, at Char.
