One Piece: Nobody has more Devil Fruits than me.

Our focus shifts to Impel Down, the so-called deep-sea prison.

The criminals imprisoned here are undoubtedly the most vicious criminals from all over the world. Those who were once powerful figures on the high seas have had their historical traces erased after coming here.

As the Gate of Justice opened, a huge block of ice drifted ashore, and a person could be vaguely seen sitting on it.

Upon seeing the newcomer, the guards on duty saluted respectfully, "General Kuzan!"

"Ah, you've worked hard."

Kuzan nodded. "I've brought this person back to you. This time, you need to keep him under proper custody. However, I think if he's frozen, he won't be able to be unfrozen unless I die."

The guards thought Kuzan was joking; after all, the man in front of them was one of the three admirals of the Navy, a being known as an absolute monster.

Aside from the Four Emperors, I can't think of anyone else who could rival the Admirals.

Even the person in front of me is the same!

Shiki the Golden Lion!

The only legendary escapee from Impel Down wasn't brought back by Kuzan.

"Oh dear, I was just picking up the scraps. I wasn't the one who actually defeated the Golden Lion," Kuzan chuckled.

The guards thought Kuzan was joking, "Who else could it be but General Kuzan?"

Kuzan seemed thoughtful, then said, "The fifth Sea Emperor?"

Chapter 168 Who is stronger, the General or the Four Emperors?

Impel Down

Infinite Hell.

The heavy iron door was slowly pushed open, and a damp, cold atmosphere wafted out from the depths of the cell.

This is the lowest level of Impel Down, where the most heinous criminals, whom even the World Government is unwilling to publicly name, are imprisoned.

A man with his upper body bare, resembling both a demon and a pharaoh, wielding a naginata.

Looking just like Prajna, and wearing demonic wings, a low laugh echoed through the once silent prison.

"Hannibal, you let me out, and I'll take care of Magellan for you, and I'll make you the warden!"

"Hmph, what director or not, I won't tell you that I really want to be the director and trample Director Magellan under my feet."

As Hannibal spoke, he suddenly realized he had also revealed his ambition, and hurriedly explained to the man in front of him, "What I said just now was all sarcasm, I absolutely did not intend to replace you!"

Clearly, the person in front of him was Magellan, the warden of Impel Down.

The sixth level of infinite hell.

The old-era powerhouses who imprisoned the Rocks Pirates and the Roger Pirates were somewhat wary of the man before them.

A Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the Venom-Venom Fruit ability, he is enormous, resembles Satan, and has two horns on his head.

Even after nearly ten hours of diarrhea, Magellan was still the undisputed strongest man in the prison.

Magellan was the deputy warden when the Golden Lion escape occurred.

But now...

Hannibal complained to Magellan as they walked:

"Hey, Chief, what brings you down here in person today? Aren't I the one who usually patrols these guys?"

Magellan did not answer, but simply walked forward with a sullen face.

Soon, the jailers were seen pushing in a huge block of ice.

The block of ice was over three meters high, covered with a thick layer of frost, and the outline of a person could be vaguely seen inside.

"Huh? Another new prisoner is being brought in?" Hannibal leaned over to take a look. "Which guy is so unlucky? This ice block must belong to General Kuzan. What a jinx."

Nowadays, it's rare for pirates to be captured by an admiral himself.

Hannibal recognized it because there was a large block of ice in the prison.

But when he finally saw the face clearly inside the ice...

"Wow ah ah ah ah!"

He screamed and jumped up, nearly hitting the ceiling.

"Gold, gold, the Golden Lion Shiki?!"

He almost thought the Golden Lion was going to come back!

Ignoring Hannibal's exaggerated exclamation, Magellan stared at the man before him. Through the ice, he could clearly see the Golden Lion's face and the wounds on his body, indicating that he had been through a great battle.

The losing side was the Golden Lion.

Magellan asked, "Was it captured by General Kuzan himself?"

Kuzan scratched his head and said, "I only managed to get lucky. The person who truly defeated him was Devil Russell, the captain of the Devil Pirates."

Devil Russell?

He'd heard that name before when he was using the toilet; it was that recently famous pirate supernova.

But how come they were able to defeat the Golden Lion?

"You look like you're getting old."

Magellan glanced at the golden lion encased in ice and lamented the cruel passage of time.

"I'm leaving that person to you." Kuzan waved his hand and left.

Magellan nodded. In any case, this was the only humiliation they suffered by being captured and brought back, which at least allowed them to regain some face.

Next comes the formalities.

Even though the Golden Lion was frozen solid, Magellan dared not let his guard down for a moment.

Or perhaps this is simply his meticulousness!

Of course, he was also confident enough that even if the Golden Lion had recovered from its icy state, he would still be able to capture it!

He is the strongest man in this prison, and the absolute fighting force of Impel Down, one of the three major agencies of the World Government!

In this state, the Golden Lion doesn't even need to go through the proper procedures. Ordinary prisoners need to be disinfected and change into prison clothes, but this guy can just bring ice in.

As he walked, Hannibal couldn't contain his ambition. "Heh heh, could I melt the ice and make the Golden Lion fight the warden? That way, I can reap the benefits and become the new warden!"

"Hannibal, I can hear you!"

Magellan's forehead veins were bulging.

Why are my subordinates so troublesome?

"Alright, stop wasting time and get this guy to the sixth floor quickly."

Magellan waved his hand, and the jailers carried the large blocks of ice into the prison.

This place has its own elevator, leading down to the sixth level of Impel Down.

First, we passed through Magellan's office, the fourth level of the Burning Hell, which was also the place where prisoners were tortured. We could faintly hear the prisoners' howling and wailing.

The fifth level of the extreme cold hell is all white as far as the eye can see, and there are hardly any prisoners to be seen.

Of course, the sixth level of infinite hell below is where the Golden Lion belongs.

The prisoners here are all terrifying beings whose existence has been erased by the World Government.

When Magellan walked in with the ice, the prisoners all looked up and made sarcastic remarks.

"Hey, which unlucky guy got locked up here again?"

"Is it going to be another Shichibukai?"

"Hahaha, I was once a Shichibukai of the Sea!"

Those who are imprisoned here are all famous for their knowledge of the sea, and they are quite familiar with each other.

Not long ago, Crocodile was ridiculed when he came in.

After all these years, hardly anyone has come to the sixth floor. Now that a new person has finally arrived, it's only natural to start celebrating.

Then someone next to him stared wide-eyed and looked closely, exclaiming, "Hey, could that guy be the Golden Lion?!"

In the sixth level, this name was like a boulder thrown into calm water, instantly creating huge ripples.

The prisoners, who had been lying lazily in their cells, all raised their heads, revealing pairs of eyes behind the iron bars that were either surprised, mocking, or fierce.

"Golden Lion? Didn't the old man say when he ran away that he'd come back to storm Impel Down?"

"He's been caught again?"

"Hahahaha! Golden Lion, you've finally met your match! Your dream of flying is over again, isn't it? Still want to become the Pirate King?"

"Hey Magellan, which Marine captured him this time? Kuzan? Or that old devil Garp?"

The prisoners started shouting all at once, some guessing that they had been captured by the generals, since they acknowledged Shiki's abilities.

If you can't beat them, you can run away.

Magellan stopped and scanned the surrounding cells with a blank expression.
