In the deep darkness, filled with fear and despair, the damp air seemed to penetrate into one's bones. Jiang Han was in it, and an indescribable heaviness surged in his heart. His eyes wandered in this dim space, as if he was trying to explore something.

"This is Impel Down, has Ace been locked up?" Suddenly, Jiang Han seemed to connect the present situation with the plot of One Piece, and couldn't help but exclaimed. His voice seemed particularly abrupt in this silent environment, breaking the long silence.

"Are you talking about Ace the Fire Fist?" A prisoner's voice came from the corner, with a bit of fatigue and helplessness. Jiang Han looked in the direction of the voice and saw a haggard man with a look of desire for freedom in his eyes. "He was imprisoned on the same day as me, but he must have been imprisoned on the fifth or even sixth floor." The prisoner's voice was trembling, as if he recalled something terrible.

"Sure enough!" Jiang Han clenched his fists, his conjecture in his heart was confirmed. He knew very well that the time when he entered One Piece was actually the eve of the outbreak of the war on the top. It would be a tragic duel that would shock the world and make ghosts weep, and Ace, the Fire Fist, would be the core figure of this storm.

Fire Fist Ace is the son of the last Pirate King Gol D. Roger. From the moment he was born, the gears of fate began to turn mercilessly. His life experience was like a heavy yoke, but it did not crush his heart that yearned for freedom and justice.

Ace grew up with Luffy. Luffy is three years older than Ace, so they naturally became each other's elder brother. They have accompanied each other through the long river of time and experienced countless ups and downs together. Whether it is laughter or tears, they are deeply engraved in each other's hearts.

At the age of seventeen, Ace resolutely went to sea and embarked on his own adventure. With his strong strength and fearless courage, he became famous on the sea. Later, he became the second captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, one of the Four Emperors. This was a symbol of his glory and his persistent pursuit of his dream. However, fate is always full of twists and turns. In an operation to hunt down the traitor Blackbeard in the group, Ace was unfortunately defeated, and the insidious and cunning Blackbeard seized the opportunity and gave him to the navy.

In order to deter the pirates, the Navy finally decided to publicly execute the pirates at the Navy Headquarters, Marinford! This decision was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves. The entire pirate world was shaken, and countless eyes were focused on the upcoming brutal showdown.

"God Buggy, please make an exception for once and use all your power to rescue us all." The voices of the prisoners rose one after another, full of pleading and expectation. Their eyes flashed with an extreme desire for freedom, as if Buggy was their only lifeline.

"That's right. If you can rescue us, we will follow your lead in the future." The prisoners' voices became more and more urgent, and their bodies leaned forward unconsciously, wanting to get closer to Bucky.

"We really don't want to stay in this broken place without sunlight forever." Those cries, like painful groans from the depths of their souls, echoed in this enclosed space.

Just as Bucky was hesitating with an ugly look on his face, there was a crack of thunder, and a ray of lightning flashed across Jiang Han's fingertips, instantly cutting through the iron bars of the prison. The lightning was like a ray of hope, instantly illuminating the prisoners' dark world.

"Yes, we are saved!" Looking at the fence that was suddenly cut open, the prisoners were in a trance for a while, as if they couldn't believe what they saw. Then, their faces were filled with excitement, like dry grass that has been dry for a long time and has regained vitality.

"Master Buggy, did you ask him to take action? I didn't expect that your fanboy is so powerful!" A prisoner was so excited that his voice changed, and his eyes were full of awe for Buggy and Jiang Han.

"Master Buggy, you are my boss from now on!" another prisoner shouted loudly, his voice full of determination and loyalty.

"Master Buggy is so mighty!" The prisoners' cheers grew louder and louder, and their emotions were like a flood that broke through a dam, uncontrollable.

The prisoners who regained their freedom began to cheer, dancing and wanting to lift Bucky up high. In this short-lived carnival, they seemed to have forgotten the pain and torture they had suffered.

"I...I..." Bucky was stunned, his eyes widened, he had never expected the scene in front of him. After he came to his senses, his eyes fell on Jiang Han, he swallowed instinctively, with a look of astonishment on his face. He never thought that this "fanboy" who had always followed him would have such a powerful power.

It turns out that this "fanboy" of his is actually a big shot! Bucky's heart was filled with mixed emotions, including surprise, confusion, and more importantly, expectations for the future.

While the prisoners were reveling, Jiang Han did not relax his vigilance at all. He closed his eyes and used his Observation Haki to sweep across the entire Impel Down. His brows gradually furrowed, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger.

There were no prisoners with extraordinary fire element in the entire Push City. In other words, Fire Fist Ace was no longer in the Push City. Jiang Han's heart was filled with disappointment. He knew that if he wanted to save Ace, he would face even more arduous challenges.

"Everyone, make way for me, don't block the road." Just then, a figure rushed over from the corner of the passage in the distance. With every step, he stretched out his hands to grab an object, using the force to cross a large distance, just like Spider-Man. The figure was extremely fast and arrived in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Han looked closely and saw that the person who came was a short but extremely agile man. His face was covered with sweat and his eyes revealed panic.

"Oh no! The navy has discovered what we're doing and is heading here!" The man's voice was filled with fear.

When everyone heard this, the hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished. Jiang Han took a deep breath, suppressed the panic in his heart, and said calmly: "Don't panic, let's work together to find a way out!"

However, facing the upcoming naval encirclement and suppression, can they really escape successfully? The future is full of unknowns and challenges...

On the vast sea, the waves are surging and the sea wind is howling. Pirate ships are struggling to move forward in the ups and downs of the waves, and the people on the ships have faces of excitement, worry, or fear of the unknown.

"Have you all read the latest newspaper? In three hours, Ace will be executed!" A rough voice sounded on the deck of a pirate ship, breaking the original calm.

"Ace? The Ace with the Fire Fist? The second captain of the Whitebeard Pirates?" A burly man with a stubble on his face asked in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

"It's just a pirate. Is it necessary for the Marine Headquarters to make such a big fuss? Isn't it a bit too much trouble?" Another thin pirate frowned and muttered in confusion.

"Hehe, this Ace is not only the second captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, he also has another identity, the son of Gol D. Roger!" An older and more experienced pirate lowered his voice and said solemnly.

"What? He is the son of the Pirate King! Oh my God!" When the pirates around heard the news, they couldn't help but gasp, with expressions of shock on their faces.

"Since the Navy executed Ace so publicly, the Whitebeard Pirates will probably have to send out all their forces! Whitebeard was one of the Four Emperors and he once competed with Roger for supremacy!" Someone's voice trembled, as if they had foreseen the coming storm.

"This battle will surely make the entire ocean tremble!" A pirate with deep eyes looked into the distance and muttered to himself. "I wonder how many innocent lives will be lost in this war..." A trace of pity flashed in the eyes of a young pirate.

"Hmph, this is the fate of pirates, the strong prey on the weak, and only the fittest survive!" A cold-blooded pirate clenched the knife in his hand, with a ferocious expression on his face.

"But this time is different. This may be a battle that changes the entire pirate world!" A seemingly wise pirate analyzed the situation with a serious expression.

On the sea, countless pirate groups were intensely discussing this shocking news. The air was filled with tension and anxiety, as if a rainstorm was about to come.

At the same time, on the dark and damp first floor of Impel Down.

"Straw Hat Boy!" Buggy's sharp voice broke the silence here. A trace of astonishment first appeared on his face, and then uncontrollable anger emerged.

"It's you, Red Nose, get out of the way, I want to save Ace." A boy about 16 or 17 years old rushed over anxiously. He wore a straw hat, a red vest, blue half-length jeans, straw sandals, and his eyes were full of determination and fearlessness.

"A red waistcoat, blue half-length jeans, straw sandals, a straw hat... He is a single-minded person. Seeing is believing." Jiang Han stood aside, watching this impetuous young man with great interest. The corners of his mouth could not help but slightly rise, and he thought secretly in his heart.

"Straw Hat Boy, how did you get in? Tell me where the way out is!" Buggy's eyes widened, he grabbed Luffy's arm and asked anxiously. His face was full of anxiety and desire for freedom.

"I came in through the gate! I don't have time to talk to you now, I still have to go save Ace!" Luffy pushed Buggy away without hesitation and prepared to rush forward.

"Ace is no longer here." Jiang Han smiled and looked at Luffy, saying in a calm tone. He knew clearly that the other party did come in through the gate, but he asked for the help of Hancock, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

"Who are you? How do you know?" Luffy suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at Jiang Han, his eyes widened, full of confusion and vigilance.

Jingle Bell--

At this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the corridor. The sound was so sharp and rapid that it seemed to tear people's eardrums.

"Prisoners have escaped, catch them!"

"Prisoners are escaping from floor to floor. Please send more personnel!"

Suddenly, a group of jailers shouted at the Den Den Mushi at the top of their lungs, holding weapons and rushing towards Jiang Han and his group. Their footsteps echoed in the narrow corridor, as if it was a countdown to death.

"It's bad luck to meet you! I promised Hancock that I would not cause trouble and take Ace away quietly." Luffy glared at Buggy angrily, muttering, then ran without hesitation, running down the stairs towards the second floor of the prison.

Seeing this, Jiang Han and Bucky followed closely. The corridor was filled with a tense atmosphere, and the dim lights were shaking, as if they would go out at any time.

"Don't run! Stop!" The jailers' shouts kept ringing behind him, and their footsteps were getting closer and closer.

Luffy nimbly moved through the corridors, avoiding obstacles one after another. Jiang Han and Buggy also tried their best to keep up with his pace.

"Oh, what should I do? It will be over if we get caught!" Bucky ran, panting, his face full of panic.

"Stop talking nonsense and run!" Jiang Han shouted loudly, thinking in his heart how to deal with the crisis in front of him.

The three of them ran all the way and finally arrived at the entrance of the second level of prison. However, what awaited them were more jailers and tighter defenses.

"It seems that it won't be so easy to get through this time." Luffy gritted his teeth, but there was no sign of retreat in his eyes.

"No matter what, we must charge forward!" Jiang Han clenched his fists, ready for the upcoming battle.

At this moment, Luffy suddenly used his rubber ability, stretched his body like a spring, and rushed towards the jailers.

A fierce battle broke out in the second level prison of Impel Down...

Looking at Luffy's back, that figure full of determination and resoluteness was like a ray of light, particularly dazzling in this dim Impel Down. Buggy and the other prisoners were stunned at first, with their eyes still filled with surprise at Luffy's unhesitating momentum. Then, as if they were suddenly awakened, they came back to their senses one after another.

When they caught a glimpse of the jailer running towards them, fear instantly took over their hearts. "Ah!" Screams echoed throughout the corridor, as if they were about to break through this oppressive cage. Their faces turned pale in an instant, and their bodies trembled involuntarily. Fear spread rapidly like a plague, making them lose the ability to think, leaving only the instinctive desire to survive.

In the chaos, Buggy took the lead and ran towards the direction where Luffy left. His fat body showed an amazing speed at this moment, and his face was distorted and panicked. The prisoners followed closely behind him, like a surging tide, with footsteps, panting, and shouting intertwined to form a noisy movement.

Jiang Han stood there, with a lonely smile on his face. That smile seemed to contain a calmness and composure towards this chaotic situation, and also seemed to carry a hint of expectation for the unknown. He looked at the chaotic scene in front of him quietly, without any panic in his eyes. Then, he took a leisurely step and followed Bucky leisurely. (End of this chapter)
