Tens Of Thousands
"What happened?"
The night was hazy.
Because it's the Calm Belt, it's filled with silence.
Impel Down the outer perimeter on top of the warship closest to the gate.
The marines could faintly hear a commotion inside Impel Down.
This made some Marine personnel wary.
Vice-Admiral Yamakaji, who was responsible for guarding the Underwater Prison on a rotating basis and had already taken a rest, got up in a hurry after receiving a report from his subordinates.
"What happened?" He asked loudly with a solemn face.
"I'm very sorry, Vice-Admiral Yamakaji, for disturbing your rest…"
A prison guard who had just changed shift and was responsible for guarding the Gate of Justice saluted and reported: "Just now, a prisoner in Eternal Hell tried to escape, causing many casualties, but it has been suppressed by Chief Warden Magellan…"
"The criminal is the Demon Heir, Douglas Bullet. In order to suppress him, it even injured Chief Warden Magellan!"
"What!?"
Yamakaji's expression changed drastically, and he asked loudly: "Is Magellan okay?"
"He's fine. He just took a few punches from that monster. He just reported the situation to Marine Headquarters. Don't worry..."
A somewhat embarrassed Magellan appeared at the gate.
There were a lot of medical bandages wrapped around his body, and it looked like the injuries were serious.
But Vice-Admiral Yamakaji, who was originally a little wary and uneasy, felt relieved after seeing this.
Although Magellan was injured, being able to appear here meant that he should be fine.
After all, the Underwater Prison holds a large number of criminals, and there are too many very dangerous ones among them, so there is no room for error.
Fortunately, no big trouble occurred.
And this time, Vice-Admiral Yamakaji didn't know.
Not far away, in the lobby on the first floor that, they can't see.
A large number of prison personnel who were easily knocked unconscious by Luke's Conqueror Haki and lost consciousness were all gathered here by the Shadowkhans.
Under the shocked and incomprehensible eyes of Lafitte, Shiryu, and others, countless black shadow tentacles appeared, and a large number of prison guards who were unconscious got up one after another and stood there in silence.
"Shadow Mark!"
The Chief Guard Saldeath, Head Jailer Domino, and other management personnel were impressively listed.
"Luke-sama, the prisoners on the fourth level have been imprisoned..."
Desire, who was sweating profusely and very tired because of the constant use of devil fruit ability, reported to Luke there: "And the devil fruit users at all levels have been screened… Including those with devil fruit ability from the fifth and sixth levels, there are approximately more than 350 people!"
"Even those jailer beasts that failed to awaken have been imprisoned and taken into account."
For convenience, except for the prisoners on the fifth and sixth levels, she was only responsible for screening out the devil fruit users on the fifth and sixth levels, as well as the jailer beasts, and locked them into cards.
Most of the prisoners in the fourth level, Blazing Hell, have been taken into the inner castle by Capone Bege.
Part of the area has been specially divided to contain them.
"Yeah?"
Luke nodded: "Thank you!"
For him, it is a manpower that can be recruited by the Netherworld Pirate.
At the very least, they must be prisoners on the fourth level or above. Others who are too weak are not necessary.
He is a vicious and unruly thug.
There is no need to spend so much time and energy to conquer it.
Wait until he enters the New World and establishes a territory.
If he wants to recruit ordinary thugs, it's actually very easy.
"Shadow Gathering Place!"
Immediately afterward, a flash of red light flashed in Luke's eyes.
"Whoosh…!"
All of a sudden, inside the entire Impel Down.
The shadows of countless prisoners rushed towards the ground floor one after another as if they were completely out of control.
The shadows of the prison guards and blue gorilla troops present were no exception.
They gathered there continuously, and the number was exaggerated beyond belief.
It was densely packed with countless shadows struggling there.
It's scary.
"Futile resistance!"
Luke stomped down with his feet.
Endless black shadows poured out.
Like a dark torrent, it directly drowned those shadows trying to struggle.
"I give you an independent personality and life, get rid of the shackles of the body, abandon all the past, and become my loyal servants…"
Luke opened his arms and looked majestic.
Then he shouted loudly: "Come out! Shadowkhan Army!!"
"Whoosh…!"
Thousands of various, ferocious-faced, somewhat astonishing black shadow figures with fangs and sharp teeth appeared.
Like an army of demons from hell, they stood there densely.
It makes people's hair stand on end.
"This number must be at least tens of thousands, right?"
Looking at this extremely exaggerated scene.
Law, Kuro, Lafitte, Shiryu, and others couldn't help but gasp.
"Can such a thing be done?"
Wiping the beloved sword that had just returned to his hand, Shiryu chewed a cigar and showed an excited smile: "It looks like I really made a very right choice!'"
He has to say that Luke's terrifying strength and weird devil fruit abilities are really frightening.
He actually controlled the prison personnel so easily, and even directly used the shadows of the prisoners to create such a large army.
"Including the more than 3,000 prison personnel and the hundreds of Blugori, there are more than 39,000 in total!"
Luke crossed his arms.
Looking at the Shadowkhan army, he spoke calmly.
There are currently approximately 30,000 to 40,000 prisoners in Impel Down.
The Crimson Hell on the first underground floor, the Wild Beast Hell on the second underground floor, and the Starvation Hell on the third underground floor... almost include more than 90% of the prisoners.
After all, anyone who can be imprisoned on the fifth or sixth level can be said to be a superhuman!
The prisoners on the fourth level, Blazing Hell, are a little worse.
But overall, it's pretty so-so.
Soon, at Luke's order.
An astonishing number of Shadowkhan began to enter and exit each cell, bringing out the prisoners who had had their shadows taken away and fainted to gather them together.
Because there are too many prisoners on the upper floors, they can only be locked up directly in Capone Bege's inner castle.
After returning to the Thriller Bark, let Desire spend some time using the ability of the Card-Card Fruit to lock them into the card.
If she were to do it all at once, her physical strength wouldn't be able to sustain it.
