Chapter 538: Reinforcements Arrive

Upon hearing Ian mention the name Shiryu, everyone immediately grasped why Ian allowed the prisoners on the sixth floor to turn on each other.

In the end, Ian’s primary goal should be Shiryu, right?

This man exuded an overwhelming aura of killing intent, and his demeanor was eerie. When he descended, many people instinctively kept their distance from him. Although Shiryu was temporarily considered their companion, no one had any favorable feelings towards him.

Now that Ian had targeted him, not a single person spoke up in his defense.

Shiryu’s eyes were hidden beneath the brim of his hat, shifting between light and shadow. He casually puffed on his cigar, saying coldly, “Captain Ian, are you planning to burn the bridge after crossing the river?”

“There’s no river, so where does the saying ‘burning the bridge’ come from?” Ian sneered, “Descending to the sixth floor wasn’t your initiative, and the slash you gave to Magellan didn’t help me at all. Even without you, I could still take down Magellan. So, tell me, why should I take someone like you who made no contribution to me?”

Crocodile also timely stepped forward, chiming in, “Exactly, and if I’m not mistaken, you were the Head Jailer who pushed forward in Impel Down! You don’t belong with us prisoners at all…”

Even a villain like Crocodile disliked Shiryu. Back in his cell, he had a clear view of the situation. After Hannyabal released him, he turned against the wardens and cut down all the guards. Crocodile, the former boss of Baroque Works, despised traitors the most.

Meanwhile, the prisoners present, each having endured the hardships imposed by the jailers, grew hostile as Crocodile mentioned Shiryu. Their gazes towards Shiryu turned sharp.

“Either you fight these sixth-floor prisoners, and if you survive, I might consider taking you with us!” Ian crossed his arms, raising his chin at Shiryu. “Or, I personally take care of you! Make a choice!”

“However, I have a third option, don’t I?” Shiryu’s hand gripped the hilt of his blade. “That is to team up with the sixth-floor prisoners and take you all down!”

Without waiting for Ian and the others to respond, he shouted to the survivors who had just emerged from the cells, “Impel Down is in chaos right now, a perfect time to escape. If we take down these people, we can all leave. Why should we follow their words and turn on each other?”

It must be admitted that Shiryu’s words stirred the hearts of the prisoners. Indeed, why turn on each other? In a fight to the death, only one could survive. However, by refraining from fighting and resisting, perhaps more could escape!

The surviving prisoners began to show signs of unrest, but they were still cautious, asking, “What about the ship to escape from the prison?”

“Just seize their ship!” Shiryu grinned sinisterly. “Even if we can’t seize it, I can impersonate the Head Jailer of Impel Down and commandeer a naval vessel to take us away! But it has to be done quickly. Once the news reaches Marine Headquarters, my identity becomes useless!”

Shiryu’s words dispelled the last bit of doubt among the prisoners. They clenched their fists, crackling with ill intentions, gathered together, and turned their collective gaze towards Ian and the others.

Even though they were aware that Ian’s group had three Warlords of the Sea, the prisoners on the sixth floor were notorious figures, unafraid of the World Government and the Navy. The title of Warlords of the Sea naturally did not intimidate them. They were confident, even arrogant, believing they could turn the tables.

Seeing the movements of these guys, Ian’s group became alert as well. Low gripped the hilt of his wild katana, Urouge raised his stone club, Luffy clenched his fists in a defensive stance, and Zoro unsheathed his sword, holding it in his mouth.

However, at this moment, Ian burst into loud laughter.

“Hahaha! Just as expected!” Ian never intended to take any of the sixth-floor prisoners with them from the beginning. He had been contemplating how to back out if they really ended up killing each other until only one remained. Unexpectedly, with Shiryu’s instigation, these guys turned their hostility towards him. This was perfect!

Ian glanced at the remaining prisoners and found his targets.

A tall female pirate in prison uniform, with heavy makeup and a long nose like Usopp – Catarina Devon, alias the Crescent Moon Hunter, rumored to be the most vicious female pirate in history.

There was also an immensely massive guy. Even sitting cross-legged on the ground, Ian’s group could only look up at him. This was Sanjuan Wolf, nicknamed the Colossal Battleship. He had a chestnut-shaped head, and despite his cramped posture in the small sixth-floor prison, no one dared to underestimate him due to his enormous size. He was the only prisoner kept individually in a cell.

Then there was the one wearing a clown hat, known as the Heavy Drinker – Vasco Shot. Additionally, similar to Hundred Beast Kaido, there was a Corrupt King with long, curved horns – Avalo Pizarro!

These individuals were originally Teach’s associates taken from the sixth-floor prison in the original story. According to Ian’s speculation, now that the Marines were planning a war against Whitebeard, Teach wouldn’t obediently stay with Akainu and the others. He would try to find a way to get out alone. Teach’s ambitions extended beyond being a Warlord of the Sea; he needed more ruthless and powerful associates to help him achieve his ambitions and dreams. The prisoners confined in Impel Down were his best choice.

If Ian didn’t show up in Impel Down, it wouldn’t be long before Teach planned to make his move here. However, now that Ian was ahead of this guy, there was no way he would leave him any room to maneuver. Taking out these criminals in advance, preventing this guy from developing his influence – that was the greatest restraint against him!

Not a single prisoner held on the sixth floor should be spared!

“Get rid of them!” Ian waved his hand and said, “After killing them, we can leave!”

Hearing Ian’s words, the prisoners immediately howled and charged towards the opposing group.

“I’ll deal with this Shiryu!” Zoro, with a sword in his mouth, shouted somewhat unclearly. He then rushed towards Shiryu. Zoro remembered quite clearly that this guy had emitted a strong killing intent toward him before. In that case, let’s see who could take down whom!

Ian initially wanted to stop Zoro, thinking that Zoro’s strength might be lacking compared to Shiryu. However, after some consideration, Ian took no action.

Perhaps letting Zoro confront a powerful opponent would help him grow faster. As long as Ian took care of him and prevented him from sustaining too much injury, it should be fine.

“Jinbe, let’s stretch our muscles too!” Crocodile said to Jinbe, “I have been in the cell for a long time, I am already bored and moldy!”

“Sounds good!” Jinbe nodded. He released his crossed arms and, stepping on his wooden clogs, headed towards the massive Sanjuan Wolf. That was the opponent he chose!

Crocodile coldly snorted and turned his body into sand, charging towards the Corrupt King, Pizarro.

On Ian’s side, not only did they have more people, but their biggest advantage was that their Seastone handcuffs had already been removed. In contrast, the prisoners from the sixth floor had just come out of their cells, with the handcuffs still on their hands. Even if they had Devil Fruit abilities, it was useless. It could be anticipated that dealing with these guys was just a matter of time. Ian had no intention of getting involved anymore, letting them unleash their powers.

………………….

While a massive brawl erupted on the sixth level of the prison, Enel, who had been waiting on the warship outside, was currently taunting the guards of Impel Down.

The fleet guarding the prison had already been annihilated by his widespread Thunderbolt, but the guards of Impel Down noticed Enel’s presence. Knowing that Enel was waiting here to assist Ian and the others in escaping the prison, they decided to eliminate their potential backup. A group of prison guards opened the seastone doors, brought out cannons and firearms, and started firing at the warship Enel was on.

Now, Enel was having fun. Standing at the bow, he used his golden staff to flick away the cannonballs aimed at the ship. Whenever he found someone displeasing, he would bring down a divine punishment, leaving these guards in a sorry state.

With his power, wiping out these guard forces instantly was entirely possible, but he had finally found a way to pass the time. How could he end it so soon?

However, just as he was enjoying himself, he suddenly felt something entering his perception range.

“Hmm?” Enel turned his head in confusion, looking towards the rear. He found that several warships had already appeared on the sea! f𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝐛n𝐨v𝚎𝗹.com

Vice-Admiral Momousagi had actually arrived!?
