"Noooo!! I want to go home!!! Hahahahaha!!"

"No! He said, 'I want to send him crying home!'… Hahahahaha!!"

"Bft… Hahaha!! That's hilarious!"

"Hahaha! Buggy's the best!!"

At that moment, the Roger Pirates were thoroughly enjoying their time in Rob's art store on Baterilla Island,which was the second art store Rob had opened in this world after the art store in Ohara.

The comedic scene with Buggy made Shanks, Gaban, and the others hold their stomachs in a fit of laughter. What made it even funnier was the prisoners Buggy had freed coming up with quotes from their own minds that Buggy hadn't said at all.

Mister 3's unnatural reactions, due to what he believed was unfairness considering Buggy's weakness in his eyes, added a more comedic touch to the scene.

"Nyahahaha! These prisoners are truly first-rate idiots. No wonder they were caught in Impel Down."

Even Buggy himself was laughing hard at this scene, not to mention the others.

"Kizaru is truly a useless admiral; he works faithfully for the Celestial Dragons."

Rayleigh felt disgusted by Kizaru's actions, who had given a logical reason for chasing Luffy at that moment.

Like Rayleigh, Kizaru's reason for targeting Luffy made most readers feel intense anger towards the admiral.

"…It's okay, my dear~ Even if an admiral targets him, he'll somehow survive and continue moving towards his goal, that's Luffy after all… Fufufu~"

At that moment, Rayleigh heard a familiar voice and turned to find two women dressed as store goddesses approaching.

As soon as she stepped out of the instant transportation room in the personal section, Shakky immediately noticed the main reason for her coming here in the first place.

The Roger Pirates, more specifically, the Pirate King's deputy, Rayleigh… Just a moment ago, Rob had informed her that Rayleigh was at the Baterilla art store and that she could join him if she wanted to, and she was accompanied by Dadan.

Being dual-professioned, a legendary hunter and a store goddess, she had the right to roam between all art stores, except those exempted by Rob as special art stores.

Chapter's Events:

—————————

"Bartholomew Kuma…!! Haa… Haa…" exclaimed Ivankov, who still couldn't believe that the person who attacked him specifically was Kuma.

(How horrible!! Certainly, he has his duty to uphold as a member of the Shichibukai… But still, to fire a laser like that at an old friend like me…!!) Ivankov thought, shocked internally.

"You're not getting away!! •Awase Baori•!!!" At this moment, a Marine female soldier used her Devil Fruit ability to trap a specific part of the battlefield where Luffy was located.

"You!! I remember you from Arabasta!" Luffy recognized the Marine woman named Hina.

"All unlucky enough to pass through my body will be locked!!" she said.

"I've seen enough of cages today!!!" Luffy used Gear Second to break free from Hina's siege, leaving her astonished at his speed as she inadvertently trapped her allies in cages instead of Luffy.

"AAHH!! HEY— HINA!!"

"So fast!! I couldn't see him move!! Hina outmatched!!"

It's known that winds cannot form in the Calm Belt, and as such, no type of clouds can appear above this strange part of the world.

However, for some reason, in a specific location amidst this calm belt, there exists a dark place as if it were ink clouds on a white paper, easily distinguishable.

This was the infamous prison in the world known as the Hell of Six Levels, Impel Down:

After revealing everything about this prison in the manga, the World Government used explicit advertising techniques and acknowledged everything that was shown in the manga, a confirmation step of little value but reflecting its true value in instilling fear of what this prison could offer.

A kind of darkness capable of absorbing even sunlight covered Impel Down, bringing horror and dread to the prisoners inside who felt the chill in their souls even within the blazing hell!

"Zehahahaha!!!"

"… It seems that's enough for today, isn't it, Shiryu?"

With a sinister expression on his face, Teach manipulated the darkness in his hand and began absorbing the dark sphere that surrounded Impel Down, preventing sunlight from reaching it for a certain period.

The suffocating darkness receded like a tide towards the current prison warden, Marshal D. Teach, where sunlight returned to touch the prison walls and warm them again after being engulfed in cold darkness.

"My new torture technique can turn all levels into an environment similar to the sixth level, making Impel Down even more terrifying on several levels, Zehahaha!!"

"Welcome to the new Impel Down~ Zehahaha!!"

"Have you seen enough cages today, Straw Hat? Hm? Really? Zehahaha! Cutting to the core~"

At this moment, Teach's focus on manga events seemed to become increasingly insane.

"War… War… Zehahaha! Fight more! My grand counterpart plan has a greater chance of success if this war becomes more and more violent!"

Seeing Luffy fighting here and there, now a target for many Marine soldiers, a wicked smile appeared on Teach's face, making this war more enjoyable.

"Hmm, it seems the story's protagonist has become vulnerable in a war of this magnitude."

Shiryu exhaled smoke from the cigar that never left his mouth and said so.

In the third-level bathroom, the new prison guardian, Magellan, flipped through the manga pages with a solemn expression.

"I see that this war won't end anytime soon…"

Magellan's eyes narrowed as he sensed the darkness receding from Impel Down. "Perhaps when this war ends in the manga, the honeymoon period for the government with this villainous scoundrel Teach will also end…"

Seeing how Teach spent the past month ruling Impel Down like a king filled Magellan with extreme anger; he did whatever he pleased after being just a worthless prisoner in Magellan's eyes.

But now, as the new prison warden, and with the government giving him the green light to change the nature of the prison and make the prisoners suffer more under his control.

The sun was shining brightly in an unparalleled spring atmosphere above the Island of Dawn in the East Blue.

In the flourishing town of Fooshaand inside the art store, readers were holding back tears due to the current manga scenes.

Seeing both Luffy and Ace in this war made the residents of Foosha, who considered both Ace and Luffy as their sons, feel profound sadness.

"Go on! Luffy! Don't give up!"

"You can do it! You can reach Ace!"

"Those damned Marines, they never stop! Give him a little rest…"

"Man, Luffy hasn't stopped running since he left Amazon Lily!"

"I bet he'll sleep for a month after this war… The effort he's put in so far is legendary…"

"I just hope the war ends positively for both Luffy and Ace."

Hearing that, Camila sighed with a sad smile as she left the readers' orders on their table.

'I hope so too,' the beautiful store goddess wished internally before returning to the side of Father Mercar, who was preparing more orders with an undying spirit.

"Mom~ Don't worry, I bet Luffy will win as usual! Hehe~"

Little Makino laughed before diving back into the manga events with a cute expression on her face.
