Goal not reached, so no bonus chapter.
Still we have the normal goal of 100 power stones, so... All the best
------
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
The execution was about to happen in less than three hours.
"Get the prisoner onto the execution platform!"
Sengoku, standing in a commanding position, spoke into the microphone with authority.
Crash!
Chains dragged along the ground, and Teach, brought out early, lifted his eyes to the stairs leading to the execution platform. His face slowly turned a bit wild, adding a touch of humor to his battered nose and bruised face.
'My goal! Is it going to finish now?!'
"Don't just stand there! Move!!"
Without giving Teach a chance to pause, the soldiers behind him forcefully propelled him forward.
'If the execution is delayed, my pay will be... reduced!'
Infuriating!
Teach clenched his teeth in frustration and was shoved onto the imposing execution platform, cursing under his breath.
And he, just like his goal, gained attention worldwide, becoming renowned in the sea. The entire ocean stirred with excitement at the name Marshall D.Teach. (T/N: At least he fulfilled his goal 😊)
"This guy... is the cause of this war?"
Some find it hard to believe that such an ordinary-looking guy could be the instigator.
Whitebeard... are you certain he'll come to rescue him?
"It's not shocking. This guy is just a regular member of Whitebeard's crew. He joined Whitebeard's crew a long time ago."
"He's considered an old member of the Whitebeard Pirates."
The informant clarified slowly.
Even though it was initially difficult to grasp, Whitebeard was indeed ready to go to war with the Marines for an ordinary crew member.
Can only say...
If you stick around long enough, you can pretty much do as you please.
"Huh? This guy seems like..."
Atlas, seated on the white chair, appeared confused. Glancing at Teach , with his blue nose and swollen eyes, looking slightly embarrassed, he turned to Kuzan and inquired.
"I don't remember ever giving this guy a punch in the face, have I?"
Setting that aside, even if it was he who thrashed him.
Considering Teach's build, after all these days, the swelling should have gone down, right?
"Ahrara, I heard from Garp that this guy attempted to flee by leaping into the sea while being escorted to Marineford."
"Then he caught him and started beating him like crazy. As for the injuries on his face..."
A hint of unease crossed Kuzan's relaxed face, as if recalling something painful.
"I'm sure you're familiar with Garp's fist."
"True..."
...
On the flip side, in the Impel Down.
Boom—!
With a tremendous roar, the Impel Down, touted as an unassailable legend, was breached once again.
The only distinction from the time of the Shiki was that this time, the assault came from the outside.
Observing the hole in front, just large enough for Donquino's massive form, Beckman sported a smile not seen for a long time.
That foolish captain can now rejoin the sea of freedom.
"Let's go, let's get this done quickly!"
Beckman gave a gentle nod to Donquino, still in a punching stance, and took the lead, entering Impel Down along with the rushing seawater.
The whole Impel Down was truly vast, and armed with Shakky's intel, they effortlessly located the blind spots in the guards' patrols, swiftly dismantling them with their fists.
For a while, no jailer noticed these intruders slipping in.
Where did that woman get such precise information?
Upon entering Impel Down, Beckman instinctively scanned the surroundings, yet the jailers remained oblivious. He couldn't help but marvel quietly.
Isn't that woman remarkably shrewd?
She even knows the defenses inside Impel Down.
"This... should be the fifth floor of Impel Down, right?"
Sunbell and Donquino, trailing closely behind, asked with uncertain tones.
Even though they were present when Shakky disclosed the information, they evidently didn't recall it clearly due to not being particularly sharp.
"That's correct, but the boss should be confined on the sixth floor, right?"
Beckman also nodded in concurrence.
Given Shanks' strength, there's a good chance he'd be imprisoned in the sixth-floor area, making it their main focus to locate a passage to the sixth floor.
"Heee—!! It truly lives up to its name, Freezing Hell."
After fully entering the fifth floor, the trio finally experienced the piercing cold distinctive to Freezing Hell.
However, with the physique of these individuals, they were naturally immune to this level of cold.
After all, not every chunk of ice possesses Kuzan's absolute low temperature.
"We should head in that direction. As per Shakky's intel, there should be a staff lift over there. Try to avoid the surveillance den den mushi along the way. If that's not possible, we'll have to disable them."
Beckman displayed keen intelligence.
Destroying surveillance den den mushi extensively on the fifth floor would undoubtedly raise alarms among the relevant staff. It would seem more ordinary if only a few of them were occasionally broken.
After all, it's not uncommon for a surveillance den den mushi to malfunction from time to time.
The best they can do is take note of it and send personnel for repairs or redeployment as needed.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in Impel Down Level 4.
Hannyabal, dreaming of becoming the director of Impel Down, was reprimanding his subordinates. He stood at the door of the employee elevator, pressing the button leading to the fifth floor.
"Really, that guy Magellan surely didn't want me to take over Impel Down; that's why he asked me to investigate under the pretense of something happening on the fifth floor!"
Hannyabal kept talking, expressing his intense dissatisfaction with Magellan.
Despite his reluctance to admit it, the position of director seemed quite elusive.
Ding dong!
With a prompt, the elevator door creaked open, revealing the abyss within.
...
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku!! There's an emergency!!"
Suddenly, an exclamation erupted in the communication room, and a scout hastily rushed to the execution platform, shouting to Sengoku.
Although Sengoku hadn't officially received the title, the appointment document had been issued, and internally Marine had already recognized the change in title.
"What?!"
Sengoku frowned, appearing somewhat displeased.
"The Gates of Justice was opened without any authorization! Plus, we've been unable to establish contact with the power room!"
The scout reported loudly at the top of his voice.
"Prepare for combat! Everyone, be on high alert!"
Sensing the unusual atmosphere, Sengoku swiftly made a decision and discreetly touched the command button in his pocket.
It was the signal transmitter that issued orders to the Ryu-Sen!
"That kid really guessed it..."
Sengoku stared fixedly at the gradually turbulent inner sea and mumbled to himself.
