In the palm of his hand was a life card, a corner of which had been burned without him noticing and was getting smaller and smaller.

Moreover, it moves slowly in a certain direction like a snail.

Generally speaking, if the owner of a life card is in danger of death, it will become smaller and smaller.

But when it recovers, it will return to its original state.

Even Ace had been replaced quietly.

And the mind was replaced.

But his original condition could not be fully restored in a short period of time.

It is impossible for Ryan to be so kind as to let Huali Pato directly transform into Manshiri to treat the opponent.

"Luffy, don't worry, Ace will be fine..."

Usopp, standing by, clenched his fists and shouted in comfort, "We will definitely be able to rescue Ace!"

"of course!"

Luffy held down his straw hat and nodded seriously.

"When we invade the Deep Sea Prison, we must first find the control room and destroy the activation device of the Gate of Justice to prevent the navy from providing support!"

Sanji lit a cigarette and said in a deep voice, "Leave this to me. Everyone just needs to go and save people... Remember not to fight too long!"

Say so.

But his heart was still heavy.

I heard that the Deep Sea Prison is located in the doldrums, where the sea kings have their nests. There are countless large sea kings all around it, and outside it are large warships that far exceed the size of the Demon Slayer Order. This is obviously a huge threat.

Although after learning about the relevant situation of the city through some channels.

Franky modified the Thousand Sunny in advance so that it could make sounds that disgust the sea kings like a sea train, thereby driving them away and greatly reducing the danger.

Moreover, their ships are equipped with outboard drive devices, which enable them to sail in the doldrums.

The entire ship is filled with cola that can be used to launch wind cannons, allowing the ship to fly directly for more than one kilometer without worrying about energy issues.

But those large fleets are a real threat.

"Everyone, look... the Gate of Justice is just ahead!"

As the time goes.

An absurdly large gate of justice that reaches into the sky is faintly visible there.

Looking at the sea conditions ahead through the monocular.

Nami was there, reminding loudly.

"The Gate of Justice won't open for pirates like us. Get ready to fire the Wind Cannon at any time..." Franky shouted, "At this distance, if we use the Wind Cannon continuously and fly for a few kilometers... we should be able to fly right in!"

"After all, the Thousand Sunshine is the best ship ever built using the precious tree Adam!"

All the Straw Hat Pirates cheered.

They divided the work there and prepared to start reefing the sails.

But they're not ready yet.

In the sky, a black figure suddenly dropped from the sky: "Hey, where are you going?"

"Eh!?"

"That is……"

"Angel?"

"No... Ryan?"

Looking at the person coming.

The Straw Hat Pirates couldn't help but widen their eyes.

They opened their mouths wide, staring blankly in disbelief at the figure before them, with wings on its back, landing on the mast of the Thousand Sunshine.

"Ren..."

Nami was pleasantly surprised.

Unexpectedly, the person who came was Ryan.

When did the other party get an extra pair of wings?

Isn't the other party a mythical beast? A person with abilities in the form of a Qilin?

Could it be that it has wings like the Qilin Lion on the Rare Beast Island?

But he is surprisingly handsome.

"If you want to save people, I advise you to leave here..."

Ryan folded his arms, sat there, and said lightly: "Don't seek death!"

Impel Down was his territory now.

There was no way he was going to let the Straw Hat Pirates cause a scene.

"What do you mean?"

Luffy clenched his fists and looked directly at Ryan: "Ryan, do you want to stop us?"

"We are free to do whatever we want, right?"

Sanji frowned and said in a deep voice: "Don't forget, you are no longer a member of our Straw Hat Pirates!"

Zoro, Chopper and others on the side couldn't help but change their expressions.

He looked at Ryan with some wariness, feeling an indescribable pressure.

The opponent's monstrous strength was obviously beyond their ability to contend with at the moment.

"No, as long as it doesn't hinder me, you are free to do whatever you want..." Ryan glanced at Sanji and said indifferently: "What I mean is, there is no one you want to save in Impel Down!"

"You're late. Just half an hour ago, Fire Fist Ace was escorted to the Marine Headquarters!"

The speed of the giant vortex current is indeed exaggerated.

The three major mechanisms are arranged in a corner, and it only takes half an hour to reach the next stop along the vortex current...

But if you follow other routes.

If you rush to Judicial Island from the Navy Headquarters.

Even the best warships are moving at full speed.

It will take at least a week, or even longer.

"What!?"

Hearing this――

Luffy, Sanji, Zoro and others couldn't help but change their expressions.

He looked at Ryan in disbelief.

They were half an hour late?

"Is this true, Ryan..."

Nami was filled with anxiety and asked hurriedly.

"If nothing unexpected happens, they may have already reached the Marine Headquarters..." Ryan shrugged. "If you don't believe me, Luffy, just look at Ace's life card. I think you should have it with you, right?"

"Yes, the life card, I almost forgot..."

Luffy, sweating profusely, came to his senses.

He hurriedly took out Ace's life card from his pocket.

I saw the life card slowly moving in another direction, not heading towards the advancement city at all.

It made their pupils shrink.

Some discoloration.

"damn it……"

"Is it really too late?"

"Navy Headquarters, if we really go there, we'll be courting death..."

"I heard that in recent days, the Marine Headquarters has mobilized elite officers from all major bases to deal with the possible arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates. The number of troops is almost over 100,000!"

Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates.

Their faces looked extremely ugly.

Subconsciously looked at Luffy.

"Even if it's the Marine Headquarters, I'll go..." Luffy held Ace's life card, full of determination and stubbornness 2.0.

"Ryan, can you help us?" Nami shouted to Ryan with anticipation.

"Yes, Ryan, please, for the sake of our former companions, help us rescue Ace!"

"With your strength, there will be absolutely no problem!"

Hear Nami's words.

Chopper, Usopp and the others couldn't help but brighten their eyes.

He was busy looking at Ryan in the sky, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Please, Ryan!" Even Luffy couldn't help but grit his teeth and look at Ryan eagerly.

Although he was reckless, he was not a fool. He naturally knew that they alone were far from enough to rescue people from the Marine Headquarters.

"Sorry, I refuse!"

Ryan said indifferently and directly refused.

Under the extremely disappointed gazes of the Straw Hat Pirates, he stood up and said, "I don't have the obligation to risk my life to help you save people!"

.......

Chapter 197: A Choice? Ace or Nami? [Fifth Update]

"Ren..."

Hearing Ryan's cold rejection.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in front of me.

The Straw Hat Pirates were originally full of expectations and hopes.

It was like a bucket of cold water was poured over them, some of them felt cold from head to toe and extremely lost.

"Forget it, let's go by ourselves..."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Luffy's eyes.

He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and shouted to Franky, "Franky, let's head towards the Navy Headquarters!"

"IMHO……"

Ryan's expression was calm.

He hit the nail on the head and said bluntly: "With your strength, passion alone is useless!"

"If you don't have enough strength, no matter how hard you try, you still can't save him. You'll just end up sending others to their deaths!"

"That's our business...none of your business!"

Luffy's expression changed.

His eyes were full of determination.

How could they just sit back and watch Ace being publicly executed by the navy?

That was his only brother.

"Swish..." He stepped on the ground.

The figure passed through the air like a ghost.
