I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

A thought struck Sieg.

Impel Down is no safe place; he could easily encounter danger. But he had two powerful allies right in front of him.

“Crocodile, would you like to come with me to Impel Down?” Sig asked casually.

Crocdale didn't react at all, ignoring her completely, her face expressionless, seemingly in a bad mood.

Sieg felt a little bored, so he turned to look at Stussy, who was holding Wiben beside him, and was about to speak.

At that moment, he felt a gentle breeze around him. Turning his head, he saw Crocodile had turned into sand and appeared at the gates of Impel Down, looking at him expressionlessly.

Fine.

Just as Sieg was about to walk away, Wiburn came running up from behind and grabbed him:

“Mr. Sig, I am your sword.”

"Take me with you into Impel Down."

Sieg glanced back, somewhat helplessly pried Viben's hand away, and instructed Stusky:

"Once the Navy arrives at Impel Down, a major battle is inevitable."

"Please keep an eye on this child for me."

Stussy nodded slightly, said nothing, and picked up Wiburn again.

Sig then leaped forward, stepping together with Crocodile into the gates of Impel Down.

The moment the two of them entered the gates of Impel Down, the system screen automatically unfolded, and a line of text appeared.

"Mission activated: Destroy Impel Down."

Chapter 527 Mission: Destroy Impel Down

The fourth underground level of Impel Down.

In this scorching hell, a great battle has just ended.

The bodies of the prison troops lay strewn across the ground, and the walls were riddled with sword marks and bullet holes.

The Jailer Beasts, along with most of the powerful figures in Impel Down, have already fallen to the ground.

The only one still barely managing to kneel without falling was Magellan, the warden of Impel Down.

Magellan was dressed in a black coat, with a pair of jet-black bat-like wings behind his head and a pair of long horns on his head, looking like a demon, but at this moment he was quite disheveled.

He was covered in blood, and there were two deep, intersecting knife scars on his chest that almost ran across his entire chest. The blood was almost unstoppable.

He struggled to support himself, but could only kneel on the ground.

Upon learning of Shiki the Golden Lion's assault on Impel Down, Magellan quickly assembled the main force of Impel Down, but now it has been almost entirely wiped out here.

The golden lion stood about ten meters away from him, a cloud of white clouds forming the shape of a mask, covering his mouth and nose.

"What a tricky ability. We wasted a lot of time on him."

When Shiki escaped Impel Down 12 years ago, he cut off both of his legs and was in poor condition, so he did not confront the strongmen of Impel Down directly.

This battle with Magellan proved to be far more difficult than the Golden Lion had anticipated.

The main reason was that they were too wary of his Venom-Venom Fruit ability, and the environment was not spacious enough, so Shiki and the others could not unleash their full power.

"Shiki the Golden Lion!" Magellan, kneeling on one knee, growled from his throat:

Even if I die here... I will never let you escape Impel Down again!

Upon hearing this, the Golden Lion, who was about to deliver the final blow to Magellan, raised an eyebrow.

"Hahaha, I don't dislike people with backbone."

The Golden Lion lowered his longsword and gazed at Magellan from afar with a rather amused look:

"Then you shall live on, and keep your eyes wide open to witness the coming of a new era."

"The strong of the old era will return to the sea, and the world will fall into chaos once again."

After saying this, Golden Lion and the others left without any intention of finishing off the enemy.

At that moment, a shout came from the cell next door:

"Hey, Shiki the Golden Lion!"

"Aren't you going to release prisoners and create chaos?"

"Give me a hand, let me go too!"

"Yeah, help me out too..."

Seeing that Shiki the Golden Lion had defeated Magellan and his men, the other prisoners cheered and pounded on the iron bars of their cell, trying to get Shiki's attention.

"Noisy!"

Without even looking, the Golden Lion raised his hand and swung his sword. A sharp sword light flashed past, cleaving the cell and its bars in two.

The prisoners' shouts fell silent abruptly.

"Sorry, you're too weak." A cruel smile appeared on the Golden Lion's face.

“I never said I was going to rescue you.”

"In this new era, only the strong have the right to survive."

Many years ago, the Golden Lion also possessed a fairly large fleet, but in the end he suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of the Roger Pirates, who only had one ship.

This did not dampen the Golden Lion's ambition; on the contrary, it made him crave even more truly powerful subordinates.

He doesn't really think much of the prisoners on the fourth floor anymore.

Shortly after the Golden Lion left, a team of Impel Down medical personnel wearing gas masks arrived and quickly helped Magellan up, providing him with first aid.

"Please speed up the treatment."

Magellan looked somewhat anxious, but his eyes remained resolute.

"I need to quickly regroup and get to the first floor. I can't let the Golden Lion succeed."

"The navy reinforcements should be arriving soon. Only by joining them will we have any hope..."

.........

the other side.

Sig had just entered Impel Down when he saw the system's light screen rapidly unfold in front of him.

Mission: Destroy Impel Down

Mission objective: Liberate the prisoners inside Impel Down and destroy Impel Down.

Quest Reward: Obtain the card: Zhang San, the Outlaw. Card quality depends on quest completion progress.

This time, the character rewards are a little special.

The reward is fixed at three cards, but the quality of the cards is affected by the completion rate of the mission.

"Wait, is it that Zhang Sanka?"

Sig pondered for a moment. Although he didn't know the specific effects of the card, he was pleasantly surprised.

Well known.

Zhang San has robbed and been robbed, killed and been killed, enjoys watching young girls bathe, and never pays for prostitution... He has committed every crime under criminal law except for the one on the cover, yet he still manages to escape justice.

Does this mean that after breaking through Impel Down and obtaining the cards, Sig can get away with it and live a peaceful life?

"Once this war is over, and I go to Water 7 with Whitebeard and the others, I should be able to live a peaceful life, right?"

Sig thought to himself.

The shipbuilding industry in Water Seven is highly developed. After the war ends, the pirates will likely need to build a large number of ships and go their separate ways, which is why they chose Water Seven as their destination.

Moreover, Tom, the world's number one shipbuilder, also lived there.

Thinking of Tom reminded Sieg of the inspiration he had received from Shirahoshi on Fishman Island.

"If I could build two hundred Hades ships, I should be able to live a peaceful life, right?"

As I was pondering this, I heard a series of noisy footsteps ahead.

Looking up, they saw about a hundred prison guards approaching, and at the very front was a tall man with black wings on his back and many bandages on his body.

It was Magellan, the director of the Impel Down administration.

"Sig, even you're here!"

Magellan was filled with shock and anger, and his breathing became heavier. He was already seriously injured, but he did not expect to encounter such a powerful and infamous expert as Sieg on the first level.

"Magellan, what's he doing here?"

Sig was also taken aback.

Magellan's very breath is poisonous; his physical strength is far inferior to that of other powerful individuals... Let alone being an enemy of Magellan, just getting close to him will poison you.

"Crocodile, time is of the essence. We don't have time to waste on him!"

After leaving those words behind, Sieg looked around and then strode off toward a downward staircase.

Soon, the two figures disappeared below the steps.

"Chase them! One Golden Lion is already a headache enough; we absolutely cannot let Sieg cause any more destruction in Impel Down!"

Magellan hurriedly urged the prison guards to go over, but when they went down the stairs, they were shocked to find that... at the end of the stairs was just an ordinary storage room?

Chapter 528 The War Begins

Pushing forward to the city gate.

The white-bearded man, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and looked into the distance where the sea met the sky.

A massive fleet of warships has already appeared on the horizon as far as the eye can see.

On the leading warships of this fleet, the newly appointed Admiral Akainu Sakazuki and Kizaru Borsalino stood at the forefront.

Meanwhile, the warship of Aokiji Kuzan, who is currently a vice admiral in the headquarters, is slightly behind the two of them.
