Vomiting Blood

Midnight.

Calm Belt.

Bypassing the Gates of Justice, Aokiji arrived belatedly.

Looking at the empty sea, not even a ship was visible.

He had a bad premonition and immediately broke into the Underwater Prison.

It was empty inside. There was no bloody scene like rivers of blood and corpses everywhere as imagined, nor was it the usual gloomy, solemn, and heavily guarded scene…

He froze in track, and then his powerful Observation-Haki was released.

He was shocked to find that he didn't perceive any aura at all.

There was a thump in his heart.

Without any hesitation, he immediately rushed to the underground level: Crimson Hell…

However, it was empty.

Wild Beast Hell is empty.

Starvation Hell, empty.

Blazing Hell, empty.

Freezing Hell, empty.

Eternal Hell... Also empty.

"Now, something big is going to happen!"

Looking at the dark, rancid, but lifeless Eternal Hell.

Aokiji was sweating all over his forehead and smiled bitterly.

"Bulu~~~Bolo~~~"

"Moshi Moshi, I am Kuzan!"

Aokiji took a deep breath and connected the Den Den Mushi.

"Kuzan, have you arrived? How is the situation with Impel Down?" Sengoku, who was far away at Marine Headquarters on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, asked loudly.

"I just arrived, but the situation is not good. You must be fully mentally prepared, Mr. Sengoku..." 

Aokiji was silent for a moment, looking at the empty Impel Down; his voice was dry.

He clenched his fists, full of helplessness, and said directly: "Not only the prisoners but also the prison guards have disappeared, and even the fleets guarding the periphery have disappeared out of thin air!"

"Whether it's the prisoners or the prison guards… So far, neither a single trace of the corpse of them was found!"

"But there seem to be some floating objects on the sea, which should have been thrown from the warship!"

"What!?"

The other end of the Den Den Mushi.

In the Fleet Admiral's office, Sengoku's face turned pale.

"The entire Impel Down has been evacuated?" He seemed a little unbelievable and asked again: "Are you kidding me? Kuzan…"

It's not just him, Tsuru, who's on the side; she also has a drastic change of expression.

The worst unexpected situation did happen.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Sengoku...but this is a fact. The control room was also destroyed, and I can't find out what happened!"

Listening to the Den Den Mushi, Aokiji's voice came.

Sengoku's mind went blank.

The next moment, he felt that his heart was about to explode, and his throat felt sweet.

"Cough!"

A wisp of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, Tsuru cried out on the side. 

"Sengoku!"

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku!" The expressions of the Marine personnel around also changed and they rushes forward to help.

"Cough, I'm fine..."

Sengoku staggered.

He waved his hand and refused other help.

Wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth, he clenched his fists tightly.

He grabbed the Den Den Mushi and gritted his teeth: "Kuzan, search carefully over there, and don't let go of any clues!"

He never expected that something like this would happen.

As the world's largest Underwater Prison, Impel Down houses a large number of extremely vicious people, including some very dangerous and powerful pirates.

It has always been known as the Iron Wall, claiming that no one has ever been able to escape or rob the prison.

Even Shiki, who escaped from prison, had to leave two legs inside in order to escape.

Now, all the prisoners in the entire prison have disappeared, and even the prison personnel and the fleet guarding the perimeter have disappeared inexplicably.

Such a big incident was a serious dereliction of duty on his part as Fleet Admiral.

He will definitely be held accountable by the World Government.

If it doesn't work well, he would directly take the blame and resign.

"I see!"

As expected, just after hanging up the Den Den Mushi.

In the Fleet Admiral's office, another Den Den Mushi suddenly opened its eyes and kept shouting.

"Bulu~~~Bolo~~~"

"Moshi Moshi, I am Sengoku!"

Looking at the color of the Den Den Mushi, Sengoku's heart sank.

But he gritted his teeth, picked up the Den Den Mushi, and answered the call.

"Sengoku, what do you do as a Fleet Admiral?"

"Marine is just a bunch of trash, useless trash!"

"Impel Down has such a big thing happening, and you Marines don't know anything about it?"

"It's not just that the world's largest Underwater Prison was invaded, but all the prisoners held inside were taken away quietly?"

"Do you know what the consequences will be if these extremely vicious and lawless guys escape to the sea?"

"The World Government will be disgraced, and its prestige will be seriously damaged!"

In the Den Den Mushi, there were several angry voices.

Far at the top of the Red Line, above the holy land of Mary Geoise, in the magnificent and extremely luxurious room, the Five Elders, who control the highest power of the world, were awakened by such news in the middle of the night, naturally, their mood was extremely bad.

Each of them had a gloomy look, full of unspeakable annoyance, and they were scolding Sengoku sternly.

"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency... This sudden incident was my fault as Fleet Admiral; I am willing to bear all the responsibilities!"

Sengoku clenched his fists tightly, with some veins popping out on his forehead.

But he still couldn't help but let go.

He humbled himself and admitted his mistake.

"This is not something you can afford just by neglecting your duty!"

The Den Den Mushi imitated the outline of an old man with a goatee, and his words were harsher than ever before: "Investigate thoroughly, find out the culprits, and be sure to catch all the prisoners back!"

"Block all messages immediately..."

The next second, the Den Den Mushi showed an outline of a figure with a big mustache: "Nothing about the sudden loss of prisoners in Impel Down must be leaked!"

"It is related to the face and prestige of the World Government. As the world's largest Underwater Prison, Impel Down is known as the Iron Wall... This matter must not be known to the outside world!"

Another elder said firmly.

"What!?"

Sengoku's pupils shrank sharply, and he broke into a cold sweat.

If these extremely vicious guys all went to the sea to cause trouble.

The Marine Headquarters and the World Government acted as if they were completely unaware and did not even issue a basic warning. It would bring an unimaginable disaster for innocent people on the sea.

"Three days, we only give you three days!"

Immediately afterwards.

The outline of the Den Den Mushi changed.

It simulates a face with round glasses and a gloomy face: "If the whereabouts of those prisoners cannot be found after three days, you, as Fleet Admiral, will take the blame and resign!"

"Understood!"
