The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

Magellan also felt that the two of them were like a pair, one in the light and one in the dark, one dominating the seas and stirring up storms, the other a hidden dragon in the abyss, concealing his identity and hiding in the shadows, complementing each other.

"By keeping such a low profile and bounty, and having quietly passed twenty years, he has now been easily captured and brought in by Vice Admiral Momonga of the Navy..."

The more Magellan thought about and analyzed the possible circumstances behind this matter, the more solemn his expression became.

"Why was he arrested at this particular moment, of all times, and on this very day, such an important day, did he have to escape?"

Magellan hadn't forgotten that today was the day to send Fire Fist Ace to Marine Headquarters for his execution.

Although the Navy and the World Government had already made all the arrangements, the fact that such a big fish had been discovered in Impel Down meant that he absolutely had to be cautious!

"Even the agonizing screams and wails from the boiling water baptism were deliberately meant to mislead us. He disguised himself so well that Hannibal was careless and didn't notice it clearly."

"This might not actually be Hannibal's negligence, but rather... he deliberately concealed his abilities! So even Hannibal was fooled!!"

"To be able to endure to this extent, this person is perhaps even more terrifying than the publicly known 'Red-Haired' Shanks. After all, he was able to remain hidden for over twenty years without ever revealing his true strength..."

"So, after remaining so obscure for so long, why did he suddenly come to Impel Down and infiltrate it so patiently? What is he plotting..."

A glint of light flashed in Magellan's eyes, and he immediately waved his hand, giving Domino a deep command:

"Hannibal and the blue gorilla only need to find Bucky the Joker; avoid direct confrontation!"

At this point, his expression turned serious.

"The opponent might possess the strength of a Yonko, or even greater!!"

After all, this is a formidable figure who has endured for over twenty years! It's not an exaggeration to overestimate or overestimate him!

"My safety is the priority. We'll decide what to do once I get there."

"Yes!!"

Domino, who also recognized the seriousness of the problem, nodded.

"besides……"

After thinking for a moment, Magellan gave new instructions:

"Report this news to Fleet Admiral Sengoku of the Navy and ask him to provide us with more detailed information about [The Joker] Buggy!!"

"More detailed intelligence means more security, and it tells us how to deal with him."

"Also, instruct the soldiers guarding the entrance on the ground floor to close the door made of sea stone, and equip each of them with sea stone capture guns, sea stone bullets, and handcuffs!!"

"Leave two Jailer Beasts behind for regular patrols, and take all the other Jailer Beasts to the first level of Hell to meet up with Hannibal!!"

"And the soldiers in the monitoring room were instructed to seal off the elevators leading to other hells; sabotage was acceptable if necessary!!"

....... .... .......

"At the same time, order Saldeth to lead the other jailers and the second-level monster troops to hold the entrance from the first level of hell to the second level of hell!"

"Absolutely do not let anyone in. If Bucky the Joker tries to force his way in and cannot be stopped, then retreat as much as possible. Again, your own safety is the most important thing!"

Magellan concluded definitively, "After all, the opponent is likely a Yonko-level powerhouse. Facing such an opponent, protecting ourselves is the greatest duty we can fulfill!"

He had personally witnessed the horrific scene when the Golden Lion broke out of prison twenty years ago, in front of that legendary pirate.

Their defensive forces were practically made of paper; not only did they fail to provide any real resistance, they also caused enormous casualties.

Having deeply felt this, Magellan, facing an invasion by pirates who were likely on par with the Four Emperors, gave the primary order to ensure his own survival and plan for the future!

Thus, even as Impel Down faced such a formidable foe, this massive machine operated methodically and smoothly under Magellan's precise command.

Indeed, Magellan was very reliable when things got to a critical and urgent point.

Under his orders, Domino demonstrated her capable leadership as a strong woman, relaying these orders to Impel Down and various departments of the Navy as quickly as possible.

And at that very moment~

"Bolulu!"

On Magellan's desk, the Den Den Mushi wearing a gas mask suddenly rang.

"Click~"

"Chief! An emergency has occurred!!"

As soon as Magellan answered the call, he heard anxious shouts from the other end.

"It seems that some of the surveillance equipment in the sixth level of Infinite Hell has malfunctioned again!"

"The footage inside is temporarily undetectable!!"

Magellan frowned again after hearing this. "Did some idiot on that floor use Conqueror's Haki again and damage some of the facilities?!"

~~~~~~~~~

[Thanks to '艺柯芦苇' for the generous donation!! And another 1000 points from '叫我怪兽'!! And 588 points from '1370..'!! And 2000 points from 'Saber！'! Thank you all! I'm done with work, I'll start updating now!]

324 Reverse Dihua! What a good guy! Bucky, the god who drew all the fire! Why am I so unlucky?!

Those imprisoned on the sixth floor are mostly lawless and notorious pirates.

Among these pirates, there are quite a few who possess Conqueror's Haki, so there are only some simple monitoring devices here.

I've released Den Den Mushi (snail phone) before, but none of them survived more than ten minutes before being killed by the monsters inside.

Even so, those surveillance devices are frequently vandalized.

"It shouldn't be. It's different from the scene where it was destroyed by Conqueror's Haki before."

The Den Den Mushi said cautiously, "It seems like the signal was just lost without any warning at all!!"

"Without any warning..."

Magellan frowned and asked, "What's the reaction from the Den Den Mushi at the entrance to the sixth floor?!"

"Nothing unusual has happened, everything is fine!!"

The monitoring personnel quickly replied.

"That's it..."

Magellan pondered for a moment and said, "Send a few people to keep a close watch on the corridor between the sixth and fifth floors. If there are any unusual situations, or if the image disappears, report it immediately!"

"I'll go to the first floor first. Remember, keep a close eye on the sixth floor!!!"

After giving his instructions, Magellan slammed down the phone.

"With the elevator blocked off, the only passage between the sixth and fifth floors is that one backup path. Anyone who '747' passes through there will be detected!!"

"So if anything unusual happens, we'll receive the news immediately, so there's no need to rush."

Magellan strode outside, "or rather..."

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "The surveillance equipment on the sixth floor is acting strangely; it might also be Bucky the Joker's doing!!"

"It's such a coincidence. He just escaped from prison, and then the surveillance equipment on the sixth floor was completely destroyed. There has to be some connection between these events..."

Magellan couldn't help but scoff, "That would be truly strange!"

"I don't know how you did it, but if you're a Devil Fruit user, it's easy to develop your abilities to the point of awakening, thereby affecting the surrounding environment, right?!"

"Most likely, your Devil Fruit ability has also been developed to the point of awakening, affecting the underlying surveillance equipment, right?!"

"This must be your doing, and I can roughly guess your main purpose for coming here!"

"This guy is really troublesome!! He's been hiding quietly for over twenty years, and he's managed to stay calm until he got into this deep-sea prison."

"But you've got guts! Choosing Impel Down, the pirate hell, as your stage to make a name for yourself on the high seas and enter the world's sight again!!"

"It seems we really have been underestimated. Has Impel Down's reputation as an impregnable fortress been gradually forgotten?!"

"Do you want to emulate your captain's old rival, Shiki the Golden Lion, and stage an escape from Impel Down, or even a more sophisticated prison break?!"

"You even said it was news from before, that the fledgling Straw Hat crew wiped out Enies Lobby, one of the three major organizations, so you think our Impel Down is just like Enies Lobby, something you can trample on at will?!"

"If that's what you think, then you're sorely mistaken, Bucky the Joker!!!"

"I'll show you why this place is called...hell!!!"

Magellan, dripping with purple, highly toxic liquid, walked towards the outer floors, leaving a trail of poisonous pits with each step.

A chilling killing intent surged from his entire body!

This murderous intent was directed not at anyone else, but at Bucky, the Joker who had escaped from prison.

At this moment, almost everyone in Impel Down, including Magellan, was focused on the first level.

Unaware of the impending danger and completely unaware of what was happening, Bucky, who had just escaped from prison, was still gloating and in high spirits.

Meanwhile, directly above the ceiling of the sixth level of Infinite Hell, where the surveillance equipment had been destroyed.

In the tunnel leading down from the 5.5th floor.

"What's wrong? The head of the [Props Master]?!"

Luo looked at Link's rather strange, even ambiguous, expression and felt something was off.

"No~"

Link shook his head, suppressing the complex emotions in his heart.

He truly hadn't expected that Bucky's simple prison break would cause such a huge uproar.

This led even Impel Down personnel, including Magellan, to believe that Bucky was definitely not a simple character.

He even just used radio waves to destroy all the surveillance equipment on the sixth basement level.

This whole mess has been pinned on Buggy, and they've even given him the title of "Devil Fruit Awakening"?!

That's outrageous!!

Even Link was completely at a loss for words when faced with this situation.

This matter was so bizarre that even he couldn't find the right words to describe it; he was utterly speechless.

But then again, Bucky is Bucky after all.

Back on Orange Island, Luffy and Link blasted his body away with a cannon, sending the entire ocean flying. How did he manage to collect everything?!

It has to be said, this is definitely a kind of Conqueror's Haki luck!!

Furthermore, although he was captured by Momonga and brought here, he did not reveal the abilities of the Chop-Chop Fruit, just like in the original version.

Not only did he successfully complete his brief escape, but his actions also caused a sensation throughout Impel Down!

Even Domino has already sent this message to the Navy Headquarters, and it is believed that Sengoku in the Fleet Admiral's office will also be affected to some extent.

This is simply an amazing man!!

Even a few simple actions within the hellish Impel Down can still shake the two major organizations of the World Government.

Yes, it's quite reminiscent of the original version where someone just sneezes and their underlings endlessly praise them and imagine them to be incredibly powerful.

This time, however, it was the more serious Impel Down that made others imagine how powerful he was, instead of the pirates who used to harass him.

Being even more meticulous, they became even more cautious around Bucky after considering the implications.

In other words, it's what's called... Dihua!

Normally, "Diversion" involves one's own side imagining how powerful they are. But Bucky is even more powerful. He can not only make his own side "Diversion," but also influence the enemy to overestimate their own strength.

As expected of Bucky, he's always the man who manages to be in the spotlight at crucial moments!

What a kind person!!

Link inwardly praised and thanked Bucky for his actions in drawing attention and fire for them, as well as for being a helpful and altruistic scapegoat.

Then, following his companions, they went down through the tunnels that Mori had created, heading towards the sixth level below.

Soon they reached the final point of the descent in the passage.

The final destination of this trip to Impel Down is right there!!

~~~~~~~~~

When Link and his companions reached the sixth level, the Infinite Hell, at the very top, the first level, the Crimson Hell...

A man dressed in prison clothes, with a blue ponytail, red lipstick, a clown-like appearance, a white skull painted on his forehead, and two blue lines drawn across his eyes, was peeking out from behind a wall.

It had a large, bright red nose, a very distinctive feature!

"Shouldn't they have been discovered?"

Bucky looked around twice and then breathed a sigh of relief.
