"Nothing is impossible, whether it is a disease or a curse, the world government will have a solution." Laskey responded firmly. Then, he looked at Gyomei Himejima and said: "Of course, for the medical academy, restoring your sight is a simple thing."
Gyomei was deeply moved.
Laskey addressed the other Hashira: "As swordsmen, wouldn't you like to learn more advanced sword techniques and gain greater power?"
"To be frank, with their current abilities, they would only be on the level of ordinary Cipher Pol members, of which we have close to ten thousand."
"Are you interested in seeing the landscapes of other worlds? In facing monsters and warriors from other worlds?"
"This..."
Rengoku Kyojuro, Tengen Uzui, Giyu Tomioka, and Sanemi Shinazugawa, who were enjoying the battle, were intrigued. Even Mitsuri Kanroji and Shinobu Kocho, who were not that interested in fighting, showed curiosity.
"If we decide to join, will we have to live in your world called Starfish?" Kagaya asked, containing his excitement and maintaining a calm tone.
"Of course."
"The medical school is in Starfish World's Drum Kingdom. Someone will make proper arrangements when the time comes."
After listening to Laskey, Kagaya nodded and, after a moment of reflection, responded.
"I'm sorry, but we need time to process all this information. Could you give us a few days to discuss it?"
"Okay." Laskey thought for a moment and said: "How about three days?"
"Okay, let's meet here again in three days."
Thus, the World Government revealed all its cards to the Demon Slayer Corps as night fell.
...
In the master bedroom of the Ubuyashiki Mansion, Amane Ubuyashiki was sitting next to her husband, holding his arm, and listening to his words.
"Amane, I've seen it." Kagaya said.
"Is it our future life?" Amane asked with a curious look on his face.
"Yes, it is a place called the Flower Capital, where cherry blossom petals float in the air, and I saw the happy smiles of you and our children."
"Looks like we'll be fine." Amane said with a warm and pleased smile.
The men of the Ubuyashiki family had the ability to foresee the future, and the family heads used this ability to gain enough wealth in business, providing the necessary funds for the Demon Slayer Corps.
This foresight ability was controllable in a way, as they could decide when to use it, but the timing they foresaw was random.
"However, I also see the future of this country, a future filled with war and death." Kagaya felt very heavy at the moment.
Evidently, the invitation and alliance that Laskey mentioned were not friendly negotiations, but a very aggressive military invasion. As he said before, this was a conquest.
Amane has already heard about all the things that happened in the afternoon, so she can naturally understand what her husband said. "We can't stop it, can we?"
"But I'm thinking if we should warn the Japanese government." Kagaya fell into hesitation and distress. Knowing that a great disaster was coming and not being able to say anything, and even having to go live in the invaders' world, was torture for this kind-hearted man.
Amane understood her husband's feelings. She put her hand on Kagaya's cheek. "Even if you put these things on the Prime Minister's desk, will they believe it? Even if they believe it, what will happen?"
As she spoke, she took out a newspaper from the drawer on the side, looked at the picture on the front page, and said softly.
"This is the latest edition of the Asahi Shimbun. It reports that the center of Hachioji was destroyed by a sandstorm, leaving a crack seventeen meters deep, five meters wide and more than four hundred meters long."
These words left Kagaya in a long silence.
He knew what his wife meant. This was, without a doubt, the work of Lieutenant General Crocodile.
Such a powerful combat power comparable to natural disasters is simply invincible to the Japanese government, and this kind of existence was only a lieutenant general in that world government.
Who knows how many lieutenant generals they have? Who knows how terrible generals are?
Finally, Kagaya could only sigh.
...
The morning of the next day.
Laskey stood by the window of the guest room and watched quietly the large number of crows flying out like dark clouds.
The Demon Slayer Corps was calling for its deployed members.
After all, joining the World Government and moving to Starfish World was a monumental matter, requiring a meeting with everyone.
Shortly after, Laskey took out a Den-Den Mushi and began reporting the Demon Slayer Corps' situation to the command center.
...
Starfish World.
In the first half of the Grand Line, a Navy warship was sailing at high speed.
Muzan Kibutsuji was standing by the window, staring dazedly at the huge iron doors, with the five-circle cross engraved on them, which were slowly closing behind him.
He already knew the truth about the World Government.
Along the way, he saw the constantly flowing black army, the dimensional gates connecting two worlds, and the vast red land.
Naturally, he also knew what his destiny was.
The great prison Impel Down.
Behind Muzan, stood a woman wearing a black kimono, with long black hair bangs covering half of her face. She was his personal attendant, Nakime.
As for the Twelve Kizuki, they hadn't been so lucky. Thinking of this, Muzan turned around and expressionlessly glanced at Crocodile, who was sitting relaxed in a chair, smoking a cigarette.
The presence of this man made Muzan not dare to think about escaping, even without being chained.
Very soon, the warship arrived before the steel doors of the large underwater prison.
At this moment, the prison, which had already received the message, was ready. Dozens of guards armed with rifles were lined up on both sides of the stone bridge.
"Welcome back, Lieutenant General Crocodile!" Magellan greeted, looking at Crocodile.
"Hehe." Crocodile's mouth twitched when he greeted him.
"Another giant..." Muzan, speechless, watched Magellan, who was about five meters tall.
"Is this a prisoner from another world? You are very lucky because you are the first one, which is enough to be recorded in the history of Impel Down." After speaking, Magellan waved his hand and said: "Follow me, you still need to go through a few procedures."
"Remind you, this guy is no weaker than me, you'd better be honest~" Crocodile leaned down and whispered a warning in Muzan's ear before turning and leaving. He didn't want to stay a second longer in this place.
Muzan didn't reply. In fact, he could feel the dangerous aura emanating from Magellan without him having to say anything.
Together with Nakime, and escorted by the guards, they passed an iron fence and arrived at a stone building on the first level of the prison.
"Ahhh! No, please!"
"Help me! I don't want to go down! Ahhh!"
Desperate cries of supplication and howls of pain filled with negative emotions filled Muzan and Nakime's ears.
Surprisingly, those sounds did not scare or tense Muzan, on the contrary, he showed a delighted expression.
If he weren't a prisoner, he would probably love the atmosphere of this place.
"Come here and give him a three-piece suit!"
Magellan ordered Moria and Taklama, who exchanged withering glances and then curiously approached to observe Muzan and Nakime.
The rules for Impel Down have changed.
The first four underground levels have been basically emptied, and everyone has been taken out to work as workers in various infrastructure constructions. From now on, only prisoners with rewards worth hundreds of millions will be able to be locked up here and restrained with sea stone handcuffs.
For the next floors, Moria will cut the shadow of prisoners who are considered very dangerous and likely to escape from prison. In this way, even if they really escape with various strange abilities, they will most likely be burned alive by the sun.
So, only criminals who are considered extremely dangerous and high value or monsters who are qualified to be imprisoned in Eternal Hell will receive a green slave collar.
Jailers also jokingly call it 'one-piece suit', 'two-piece suit' and 'three-piece suit'.
Thus, Muzan and Nakime were first handcuffed by their hands and feet, then Moria took away their shadows, and finally Taklama placed a green ring on their necks.
"Muzan Kibutsuji, I have read your file."
"I know that the sea stone does not affect your abilities and you can manipulate your body at will, but don't you dare take them off. Trust me, you don't want to know what happens if you do."
Magellan watched them with a stern look.
"Oh, I wonder what your ability is?"
With Crocodile out of sight, Muzan regained his confidence, not believing there were many who could defeat him.
But just as he was about to act, the ring on his neck flashed with a green light and his body was out of his control, instantly calming down.
"Besides, you can't take off the ring yourself."
Magellan snorted coldly and headed towards the large elevator.
At this time, Taklama sneered and said: "I order you to follow Vice Warden Magellan and obey his orders!"
Immediately, Muzan and Nakime, in shock, began to follow him like controlled puppets.
Filled with despair for their future, they were taken through Hell's Hot Tub to undergo 'baptism'.
The baptism lasted only ten minutes. Upon leaving, they changed into prisoner uniforms and, together with Magellan, took the elevator.
Finally, they stopped at level 5.5, and when the elevator doors opened, a shadowy, silver space illuminated with purple light and filled with people in white coats appeared before them.
"Hahaha, they finally arrived!" Dr. Fritz looked at Muzan and Nakime with a big smile. "Welcome to the Institute of Biochemistry. This will be your home from now on."
"Shurorororo! I've waited a long time for this! I heard that you have lived more than a thousand years. Let me study your body!"
Muzan wordlessly watched Caesar Clown, who had horns on his head and was even taller than Crocodile.
At the same time, Queen, who had just arrived here not long ago, was also looking at Muzan and Nakime curiously.
Besides them, Dr. Soue Arata of Kabane World was also in the crowd.
In short, more than a dozen pairs of fiery eyes stare directly at Muzan. Next, he will become the brightest 'star' of the Biochemistry Institute.
