Chapter 187 The Enraged Warring States Period: Why Did the Blood-Eyed Ninja Appear in the Underwater Prison?!
"Still no news about Whitebeard?"
Upon hearing this, the communications soldier standing guard shook his head and said, "No, we haven't received any information about the Whitebeard Pirates since the surveillance ship was sunk."
"Is that so...?" Sengoku frowned and said, "So much time has passed, and the Whitebeard Pirates still haven't made a move..."
'
"Are you planning to fight us on the day of our public execution?"
If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.
After all... that guy has a white beard!
Known as the world's strongest man, he would never be afraid of their navy, so... the probability of a direct confrontation is the highest!
Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the other side is brewing some bigger conspiracy, such as... attacking the underwater prison!
While the probability is low, it's not impossible.
After all... they're pirates!!
Just then, Garp walked in from outside and sat down on the sofa without saying a word.
Judging from his expression, the man wasn't in a good mood.
"Thank goodness this guy didn't do anything reckless..." Sengoku muttered to himself.
If Garp went berserk in Impel Down, Magellan wouldn't be able to stop him.
It's fair to say that if Garp wanted to, he could single-handedly conquer Impel Down.
Fortunately, the old man still remembered the meaning of the two words on his back.
"Don't look at me like that." Garp glanced at Sengoku and said, "I'm just going to see my grandson; I won't do anything else."
If he really wanted to kidnap someone, he would have left with his men long ago. How could he possibly return to Marine Headquarters?
After all... he's a navy officer too.
"Yes, I know."
Seeing that Sengoku didn't say anything more, Garp closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa without saying a word. However, judging from his furrowed brows, his heart was not at peace.
"He's still his grandson after all..." Sengoku sighed inwardly.
But no matter what, what needs to be done this time is unchangeable. Let's just hope that Garp won't do anything stupid.
Just then, a communications soldier ran in from outside, looking flustered, and exclaimed, "Marshal Sengoku!"
"Urgent report from the underwater prison!"
Upon hearing this, Sengoku's expression immediately changed.
"Emergency report?!" Sengoku asked hurriedly, "Has the Whitebeard Pirates attacked?"
If the Whitebeard Pirates head towards Impel Down, then... they'll need to rush to Impel Down to provide support as quickly as possible.
Then... take down Whitebeard in that area!
"The Great Undersea Prison..."
Garp opened his eyes and glanced at the person who had come in, his brows furrowing even deeper.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, not the Whitebeard Pirates," the communications officer said. "It was the Straw Hat Pirates who invaded Impel Down."
Garp: ? ? ?
Warring States Period: !!!
Garp was stunned after hearing what the other person said.
He never imagined his grandson would go there. Didn't that kid know what the underwater prison was?!
That's hell for pirates!
Sengoku was furious. This pirate crew, which had just killed three Celestial Dragons not long ago, had now appeared in Impel Down.
This is practically slapping their navy in the face with a shoe sole!
Thinking of this, Sengoku angrily exclaimed, "Why are the Straw Hat crew in Impel Down?!"
"Could it have been that guy Xiong who did it?!"
At that moment, Sengoku recalled Akainu's report: Kuma had indeed sent the entire Straw Hat crew flying.
However, they had no idea where it flew to.
But now that I see it... maybe they were filmed in an underwater prison!
Otherwise, there's no way to explain why they were able to appear in the underwater prison.
"That's hard to say," the communications officer shook his head. "Bartholomew Kuma has lost his personality, so even if we wanted to ask, we wouldn't get an answer."
Then, the communications officer speculated, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, is it possible that Boa Hancock, the Pirate Empress, did something?"
"That woman wouldn't be that stupid. Besides, Amazon Lily is very hostile to men, so it's impossible for her to take such a big risk to help the Straw Hat Pirates."
He's more inclined to believe that Kuma sent the Straw Hat Pirates to Impel Down than Boa Hancock!
Of course, it's also possible that they flew to a special island in the Calm Belt, and then, relying on the Water Release Technique of Blood-Eyed Ninja - Saiyan, crossed the Calm Belt and arrived at the underwater prison.
Regardless of the reason, the fact that the other side has arrived at the underwater prison is a very shameful thing for their navy.
After thinking for a moment, Sengoku asked, "How many members of the Straw Hat Pirates were there?"
"Two," the communications officer said. "Just Straw Hat Boy and Blood-Eyed Ninja."
"The two most troublesome ones..." Sengoku frowned.
That bastard Xiong really knows how to cause trouble for them!
Just then, a man sitting on the sofa asked, "Have you figured out their purpose in appearing at Impel Down?"
"I don't know." The communications officer shook his head and said, "They've only found traces of them at the underwater prison."

"Currently... they should be in the second level of Beast Hell."
As for whether they were taken to a deeper level of the prison, they didn't know.
"Going straight down, huh?" The man frowned. "If that's the case, then they entered the underwater prison with a specific purpose... to rescue someone?"
As he spoke, some guesses began to form in his mind.
After listening to the man's words, Garp's expression became somewhat unnatural.
"Luffy and that ninja kid are definitely heading for Ace," Garp murmured to himself.
If the two of them can really succeed, Ace will be able to survive.
Thinking of this, Garp's tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
At this moment, Sengoku glanced at Garp, clearly understanding what was going on.
He then said, "They must be after Fire Fist Ace. Straw Hat Luffy and Fire Fist Ace are sworn brothers."
If it weren't for Fire Fist Ace, Straw Hat Luffy and Bloodshot Ninja would never have needed to go to Impel Down.
"Is that so...:::::"
The man nodded upon hearing this and said nothing more.
"Marshal Sengoku, should we send reinforcements to the underwater prison?" the communications officer asked.
He had heard that even the Admirals couldn't defeat the Straw Hat Pirates.
Can such a terrifying underwater prison really stop them?
"Support... "
The First Sengoku did not answer the question immediately, but instead frowned and began to think.
At this moment, information about the Blood-Eyed Ninja, Xi Yan, surfaced in his mind.
There are various types of escape techniques, among which water escape is the most threatening.
It also includes hypnosis and... immortality!
The appearance of such a creature in the underwater prison is certainly not good news.
Should we send a general to provide support?
If Borsalino were sent to Impel Down, he could indeed get there very quickly.
But there's a problem: what if Whitebeard launches a surprise attack on Marine Headquarters at this time?
The loss of a naval admiral could lead to unforeseen changes.
This means they can no longer achieve their goal of keeping the white beard.
However, it wouldn't be right to let the Blood-Eyed Ninja wreak havoc in the underwater prison, since that guy is quite powerful.
Although this kid is no match for a general, it would be impossible for a lieutenant general to defeat him.
Although I hate to admit it, that kid is indeed quite strong now.
The sheer power that can be unleashed by combining ninjutsu, domineering aura, and immortality remains an unknown quantity.
but.
"Even in an environment like Impel Down, Magellan's strength is no less than that of an Admiral," Sengoku murmured to himself.
After all... biological toxins are the nemesis of all humankind!
Even if that blood-eyed ninja possessed abilities similar to immortality, he probably wouldn't fare much better if he were continuously attacked by the toxins of the creature that was his natural enemy!
"Even if this guy uses Water Release techniques to fight Magellan, he will eventually be defeated by Magellan's deadly poison!"
Zhan Guo thought to himself.
After all... Magellan's Venom-Venom Fruit can easily infect an entire sea area, turning it into an incredibly terrifying and deadly poison!
With this in mind, the Warring States period made a decision.
"There's no need for support," Sengoku said. "Magellan's strength is still formidable."
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then continued:
"Tell Magellan to keep the Blood-Eyed Ninja in Impel Down!" Sengoku said. "Even if we can't kill him, we must keep him there!"
"Also, don't forget to tell Magellan about the Blood-Eyed Ninja, Xiyan, and Straw Hat Boy as well."
If they can keep the Blood-Eyed Ninja in the underwater prison for two days, their war should be over.
By then... even if the Blood-Eyed Ninja possesses true immortality, they will still be able to capture that guy!
As for Straw Hat Boy?
With Magellan around, this guy wouldn't have come out alive.
After all... he's not immortal!
"yes!"
"Oh, right!" Sengoku said, as if he had just remembered something. "If we need troops, have him notify the navy outside."
Ten naval warships is already a considerable force!
While it's not certain we can defeat that Blood-Eyed Ninja, we can certainly help Magellan maintain order.
"clear!"
The communications officer, having received the order, quickly left the area.
After watching the other party leave, Sengoku rubbed his temples and said, "It really is true that everything happens at once. But this guy's appearance here might be an opportunity for them!"
"If we can capture him, we might be able to uncover his secrets," Sengoku thought to himself.
Of course, if the other party were to be killed by Magellan by accident, they would also be unable to obtain those secrets about ninjas.
However, Sengoku did not intend to force it; it would be best if he could get it, but there was nothing he could do if he couldn't.
After all... these are extraordinary times, and they need to be wary of Whitebeard!
This is the most important thing; everything else comes later.
Just then, a strange sound entered his ears, successfully interrupting Sengoku's train of thought.
"Click~"
"Click~"
"Click~"
"It smells so good!" Garp said.
Warring States Period: ...
Sengoku glanced at Garp, who was happily eating senbei, and immediately became furious.
"Garp, what are you laughing at, you bastard!"
"Hahaha!"
"You bastard!" Sengoku roared, his shark-like mouth agape. "Do you even know what your grandson has done?!"
"Not only did they wreak havoc on Enies Lobby, but three Celestial Dragons died because of his Straw Hat Pirates crew, and now... they've stormed into Impel Down with the Blood-Eyed Ninja!"
"These events were unheard of in the past!"
Unfortunately, Sengoku's words did not make Garp restrain himself; instead, they made the man laugh even more heartily.
"Hahaha, as expected of my grandson," Garp said with a loud laugh.
Warring States Period:
Seeing Garp laughing loudly, Sengoku's face bulged with veins. Wasn't this bastard getting a little too cocky?
"You bastard!" Sengoku rushed out of his seat and grabbed Garp by the collar.
She glared at him angrily and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you're a naval hero, do you think you wouldn't be held accountable?"
If this guy weren't hailed as a naval hero, he would be held accountable by the World Government, and even if he wanted to protect this man, he wouldn't be able to!
Thinking of this, Zhan Guo became even angrier.
"Hahaha, this old man can't possibly take responsibility for something this big," Garp said with a laugh. "So please spare me."
"You're still laughing!"
Sengoku opened his shark-like mouth and roared, "Do you know how much effort Kotsuru and I put into cleaning up all that mess from before?!"
"You bastard!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sengoku snatched the senbei from Garp's hand, looking extremely displeased.
"Hey, give me back my senbei, Sengoku!"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Sengoku said. "He's mine now!"
Then, right in front of Garp, Sengoku ate all the senbei in one go, leaving Garp completely dumbfounded. "All...all gone?"
"What, you're not convinced?" Sengoku glared at him.
Garp: ...
He only brought this one bag of senbei, and that bastard Sengoku ate it all. What kind of nonsense is this?
The man sitting on the sofa watched this scene helplessly. Was it appropriate for him to see something like this?
After shaking his head, the man said, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, what if the Blood-Eyed Ninja and Straw Hat Pony really rescue Portgas D. Ace?"
Although the probability is not high, they need to consider all possibilities in order to avoid any unexpected events.
Upon hearing the man's words, Sengoku thought for a moment and said, "Then we can only send a general to handle this matter."
His thinking was that no matter how powerful the Blood-Eyed Ninja was, it was impossible for him to rescue Fire Fist Ace right under Magellan's nose.
After all... that guy is imprisoned on the sixth level of the underwater prison!
The existence of the sixth level is known only to a small number of high-ranking members of the underwater prison, therefore...
Even if the other party has the ability to hypnotize, the probability of finding the sixth level is not high.
Of course, if the other side happens to find Fire Fist Ace and rescue him...
Then we'll have to send Borsalino.
However, the Warring States period would not send out its generals unless absolutely necessary.
After all... tomorrow is the day of execution!
The Whitebeard Pirates could appear at Marine Headquarters at any time, so we must be on guard.
"General..." the man frowned and said, "Is it still not too late?"
"Yes, there's still time." Sengoku nodded and said, "The underwater prison is very large. Even if that guy can find Fire Fist Ace and rescue him, it will take him a considerable amount of time to return to the surface."
"Moreover, with Magellan stopping them, they can hold out until Borsalino arrives."
However, Sengoku felt that the probability of such a thing happening was not high, after all... Magellan's strength was truly formidable!
In that kind of environment, the Venom-Venom Fruit is practically invincible!
This is why he was so confident in entrusting the Blood-Eyed Ninja, Xi Yan, to Magellan; that man's abilities were simply the bane of humanity!
"I see."
The man nodded and said nothing more.
Sengoku glanced at Garp, who had fallen silent again, and shook his head helplessly.
He could still see the extent of the man's inner conflict at that moment.
As Ace and Straw Hat Luffy's grandfather, the other party definitely hopes that his grandson can be saved.
But at the same time, he is also a navy officer who carries the burden of justice!
From the navy's perspective, they wouldn't want a place like an underwater prison to have problems.
But Sengoku didn't say anything, after all... he had something he had to do.
Just then, the communications officer ran in from outside and said, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, apart from the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock and the Knight of the Sea Jinbe, all the Seven Warlords of the Sea have arrived!!!"
Upon hearing this, Sengoku nodded and then said, "I hope nothing went wrong."
These unruly guys might come up with some wicked ideas once they arrive at Marine Headquarters.
After all... these guys are pirates!
Even if they hold the title of Shichibukai, they can't truly be of one mind with them, so we have to be wary of them.
"Doflamingo controlled our people to attack each other, but Vice Admiral Tsuru stopped them," the communications officer said.
"Doflamingo, sir..."
Sengoku felt a headache coming on just thinking about the information on that former Celestial Dragon.
This guy is someone who thrives on chaos.
Forget it, with Xiaohe watching over him, that guy probably won't dare to cause any more trouble.
It remains to be seen how much of a contribution these Seven Warlords of the Sea will make in this war.
