Chapter 54 - Chapter 54: Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Kong

"Is that Lucas?" The guards widened their eyes and raised their weapons for the first time. Lucas ignored them and walked forward. "Magellan, Impel Down needs you. You don't have to resign; I'm here."

As he spoke, he waved his hand towards the guards in front of him, indicating for them to withdraw. Under Lucas' gaze, the guards were surprised and unconsciously retreated!

Lucas passed by them and picked up the key to unlock the cage door. However, this action stopped again. He suddenly felt that going in and out was too troublesome.

Then, in front of the cage door, his body became illusory and passed through the cage! This scene made Kong suck in his breath.

Kong was extremely shocked. He had fought directly with ghosts and was left helpless. At that time, the ghosts showed intangibility, very similar to Lucas' current performance! Is Lucas truly alive or dead?

Kong took a deep breath, and a huge wave rose in his heart.

Originally, he thought he came here to talk to someone who was suspected to have something to do with ghosts. Now this idea has changed.

Lucas didn't care what they thought. After entering the cell, he put down the red wine right beside him, sat on the sofa, raised his legs, and looked at Sengoku, Kong, and Magellan. "Is there something you need from me?"

Seeing this, Kong's eyelids moved slightly. The sixth level of Eternal Hell is terrible. Kong, as the commander of the entire navy, knows very well that even prisoners with past histories, on this level, all traces of them would be erased. But the man in front of him seemed to take Impel Down as a complete joke.

"I am here to enact the Five Elders and to represent the World Government's policy," Kong went straight to the point.

Upon hearing these words, Lucas looked up, focusing on Kong's body. Nothing.

Once a Marine admiral, he is now the Commander-in-Chief of the entire navy, both of the Marines and the World Government—an extremely important high-level figure in the world's politics and a powerful martial expert.

"What brings me the honor?" Lucas took the corkscrew and popped open the wine.

"The ghosts in the Holy Land, the ghosts in the Naval Headquarters—what conditions do you have to be willing to resolve these issues? You said you hate pirates. I don't think we are that kind of people. Moreover, we don't need to be so hostile to each other, as long as you can help us resolve these issues. I come here with enough sincerity. I hope you can consider my words seriously," Kong said with a stern expression.

"Eh? The Five elders? The Holy Land, and the Naval Headquarters?" When the surrounding prisoners heard it, they exploded in disbelief. Everyone's eyes widened. They couldn't help but look at Lucas and Kong with curiosity!

"What did Lucas do?" Everyone was screaming, wanting to understand the situation in the outside world and what Lucas could have possibly done.

Editor: "Everyone was screaming, surprised by Sora's words" Who the freak is sora?
