Marineford:
"What do these two bastards plan to do!?" exclaimed Sengoku.
"Who is currently in charge of the prison in the manga? Is it Magellan? Where is he amidst all this chaos, for heaven's sake? In the bathroom?"
"Impel Down has at least two strong figures like Admirals in charge, don't tell me that just two troublemakers like Luffy and Buggy will turn it upside down!!?"
"That's practically impossible... but we're talking about Luffy here... If we add this lucky clown to the mix... well..." Zephyr and Sengoku both knew when their fears were realized in the next moment.
"What!! These fools decided to change the silently infiltrate plan into a 'Make a huge uproar plan'!!" Sengoku's eyes widened when he saw Buggy and Luffy attacking the Beast Guards.
"... That's good then. If they choose to make a big fuss, it means they will be continuously pursued by the guards and prison leaders. It's better than staying in the shadows at least."
At this moment, Sakazuki entered the Fleet Admiral's office after leaving earlier.
Sengoku's expression didn't change upon hearing Sakazuki's words, but internally, he could understand the logic behind it.
Kuzan crossed his legs before speaking as well. "No doubt, this is a double-edged sword as well. From what I see, Luffy will reach his goal, no matter the difficulties and hardships he'll go through... but if the war has already been set, Luffy won't be able to save Ace at this stage, no matter how hard he tries."
"Do you mean..." Borsalino smirked in his usual way after hearing that; he had already understood what Kuzan meant.
"If Luffy doesn't achieve his original goal of saving Ace here in Impel Down, what will he achieve by coming to this dangerous place?" Tsuru said, as if wondering, but with her cunning and experience, she had already grasped the answer.
"Sigh~ gathering allies." Sengoku announced what was going through everyone's minds at this moment.
"That's what sets this kid apart after all."

Chapter 527: "The Crimson Hell"
—————————
"Mgyahaha!! You're done for, you sea gorilla!"
After a fierce battle, Buggy managed to defeat one of the Beast Guards. But in the next moment, his eyes widened as the Beast Guard stood back up.
"Geh!! It didn't work!!!" Immediately after, Buggy's body split into parts, and he managed to evade the Beast Guard's attack.
"Dowah, that was close!!! Wait… Stop that!!"
Buggy didn't expect the next development, where with a single punch, Luffy knocked down the Beast Guard that was attacking him.
"L… Looks like you got a little stronger…" said Buggy.
"They're strong. What kind of animal are they!?" Luffy asked a question.
"They're the martial artists of the ocean, the blue gorillas, or 'Blugori.' Don't get careless; There are still four more…" Before Buggy could finish his sentence, Luffy had already taken them all out. "They're already down!!!"
"But I don't have time to fight them all like this!!" Luffy said, tightening his grip.
This scene left the prisoners inside the cells in awe.
"Wow! They… They beat the Blugori!!!"
"Hey!! Who are you guys!?"
"Open the door!! Open it!!!"
…
Far away in the control center, the prison guards were in a state of confusion.
{"Isn't there only one escapee?"}
"…? There should be just one…"
{"I might have seen it wrong…"} "But I think I saw two shadows…"
"Anyway, in front of mixed residence cell number 10, five Blugori have beaten!!"
The surveillance Den Den Mushi relayed the situation to the monitoring guard.
"Five of them!? That can't be… There shouldn't be anybody on Level 1 who can take out five Blugori!!"
•———•———•———•———•———•
Back to where Roger's pirates are currently gathered.
Everyone was on the edge of their seats since they started reading the new volume.
"It's impossible for the Straw Hat to be stronger than me! I must have been pretending to be weak!"
"Gyahaha! Yes, that's true. Maybe I'll show my superiority at the last moment to save Ace!"
"Right, right!" Buggy's red nose shone with confidence as he spoke.
Who in hell would believe that a 17-year-old kid could be physically stronger than a former member of Roger's crew, who was around 37 years old?
Look at Shanks, who was almost the same age, with the same background. Wasn't he a famous Emperor of the Sea?
So, it's only logical to believe that Buggy is hiding his strength for a reason... How couldn't he defeat just one 'Blugori'?
The Roger pirates, including Shanks, looked at Buggy with a strange expression.
Buggy was uneasy under their gazes and asked hesitantly, "What?"
"Did you really not manage to defeat one Blugori?" Shanks said with narrowed eyes... his expression seemed mocking.
"Hehehe... Impossible, you must be joking. Didn't you hear what I just said?" Buggy started sweating at this moment.
…
..
"Doesn't Buggy in the manga know that Ace is our son?"
On that grassy hill, Rouge enjoyed the cool and refreshing breeze before asking a question she wanted an answer to.
"Maybe he knows... and maybe he doesn't," Roger replied with a smile.
Rouge pouted in annoyance. She wanted one answer, not maybe two.
Seeing this cute reaction, Roger laughed heartily, "Wahahahaha!" before saying, "Personally, I find Buggy in the manga very mysterious... He's basically a funny character, on the surface, just a weak clown with moderate strength at best. But what most people in the manga world don't know is that he has the same background as one of the Sea Emperors, and he also has good luck."
No one knew what Roger meant by good luck; only Roger knew what he meant.
…
The Calm Belt, At The Impel Down:
"The first conclusion... the 'alive' surveillance Den Den Mushi is not entirely capable! It must be replaced with non-living monitoring means in closed rooms and physical examination rooms... By Hell! even the Den Den Mushi is affected by Boa Hancock's powers and turns into stone! What kind of power is this that can even influence the snail and make it lust after it?"
"The second conclusion... don't trust pirates even if they are allies to the World Government... don't trust their sudden requests... if a beautiful woman lets her clothes fall off completely before entering the prison, maybe you'll find a man hanging on her waist."
"The third conclusion... maybe you'll find a random pirate and a funny clown using a Devil Fruit... make sure the prisoners are not Devil Fruit users before choosing the type of handcuffs that will lock them in the cell... otherwise, they will escape smoothly from their cells and cause chaos."
"The fourth and important conclusion... beware of Hannyabal!"
At this moment, Magellan was jotting down his conclusions so far in his notebook while reading the manga and having a peaceful bowel movement.
