Chapter 1384 The Beginning of a Major Event (5)

Then, it began to twist and expand in an incredible way. The outer layer of stone gradually fell off, eventually revealing the figure hidden inside - it was Luffy!

Luffy slowly opened his eyes and regained consciousness, but at this moment he was like a machine that had just been started, and his brain seemed to be in a short-circuit state.

He sat in the cold snow in a daze, looking around at the unfamiliar environment with wide eyes, muttering to himself: "Where... is this place?"

At the same moment!

A large fleet of four or five warships was slowly approaching Impel Down.

These warships belong to the Navy Headquarters. They ride the wind and waves with great momentum.

As the fleet approached Impel Down, a tall figure appeared at the bow.

He was wearing a white cloak of justice, had an afro and an eye patch on his head, and stared ahead expressionlessly - this man was none other than the Navy Admiral Aokiji.

Next to him stood a burly, bearded old man. He was the famous Vice Admiral Garp.

\"Welcome General Aokiji and Vice Admiral Garp to Impel Down!\"

The prison warden Magellan, who had just seen off Empress Boa Hancock, hurried over to greet these two heavyweights.

\"Hahahahaha, it turns out to be Magellan, it's been a long time!\"

When Cap saw Magellan, he burst into laughter and greeted him warmly.

He stretched out his mechanical left arm and slapped Magellan's shoulder hard.

Due to the excessive force, Magellan's body couldn't help but shake a few times.

Faced with such a bold move by Garp, Magellan revealed a barely perceptible bitter smile on his face.

However, unlike before, Cap's smile at this moment seemed a little forced, and there was a deep sadness hidden deep in his eyes.

Seeing this, Aokiji on the side shook his head helplessly and said: "Okay, Senior Garp, let's go in quickly and don't let the marshal wait too long."

Karp didn't say anything.

\"Okay, please follow me!\"

Magellan responded quickly, and then led Aokiji and Garp into Impel Down.

On the other side, Luffy stared at the completely unfamiliar environment around him with wide eyes.

\"Didn't Hancock say she would take me to Impel Down? But where exactly is this place?"\"

Luffy scratched his head and looked around in confusion.

Deep in his mind, his image of prison had always been that of a dark, damp, and oppressive cage.

However, the scene before his eyes at this moment was completely different from his inherent cognition—heavy snow was flying all around him!

Luffy slowly stood up, staring at the boundless snow with wide eyes, a strong sense of doubt welling up in his heart: Is this the legendary Impel Down?

The biting cold wind whistled past, cutting through the skin like an icy blade, bringing bursts of bone-chilling chill.

Luffy looked around vigilantly, but apart from the overwhelming snow and the howling cold wind, there was not a single person in sight.

An inexplicable feeling of loneliness suddenly surged into his heart, and he couldn't help but shout loudly towards the empty snowy ground around him: "Is there anyone there?"

His voice echoed in the silent world for a long time, as if it could penetrate the thick snow and reach some unknown corner.

However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no response.

"Where exactly is this place? And where is Ace?"

Luffy frowned and muttered to himself.

He had never seen the true appearance of Impel Down with his own eyes, and knew nothing about the internal environment of this mysterious prison.

Obviously, no one had ever described to him in detail what Impel Down was like.

Because of this, even though he was in Impel Down, Luffy had no idea where he was, let alone how to find Ace who was imprisoned here.

With a heart full of anxiety and confusion, Luffy began to move and wander left and right on the vast snow.

At the same time, he kept shouting loudly, hoping to attract other people's attention or get some useful clues.

Just like that, unknowingly, he gradually moved away from his original position and deviated from the passage leading to the sixth level of infinite hell.

This extremely cold hell is vast and boundless, and there is no end in sight at a glance, as if it is a white desert that one can never escape from.

Luffy walked forward with difficulty, one deep step and one shallow step. Each step was accompanied by a creaking sound, leaving a series of deep and shallow footprints behind him, which were soon covered by the falling snow.

Luffy was anxious to save Ace, his steps became faster and faster, and he walked deeper into the cave unknowingly.

As he struggled forward, he kept calling out Ace's name.

The anxious call echoed in the empty space, as if it was going to break through all obstacles.

Finally, Luffy's voice attracted the attention of a group of monsters hiding in the darkness.

I saw a pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened, flashing with greed and cruelty, and locked tightly on Luffy, the uninvited guest.

At the same time, in another direction, Admiral Aokiji, Vice Admiral Garp, and the Director of Impel Down were walking towards the fifth floor with steady steps.

They walked along the place where Luffy had just been, but due to the heavy snow, the footprints left by Luffy had long been covered by the thick snow and disappeared without a trace.

Garp walked to where Luffy had originally stood, and suddenly, an indescribable feeling came over him.

His heart twitched violently, as if he had a premonition that something ominous was about to happen.

The feeling was so strong that Karp stopped involuntarily.

When the other entourage saw Karp suddenly stop, they all looked puzzled.

Especially Magellan, he asked softly: "Lieutenant General Karp, what's wrong with you?"

However, Karp did not answer immediately, but just shook his head slightly, as if trying to get rid of the uneasy feeling.

After a moment, he took a deep breath and said, "It's okay, let's keep going."

So, the group continued to move forward.

When Shiryu came to the place where Garp had just stopped, he looked down at his feet, and his originally frowned brows instantly twisted into a ball.

He clearly remembered that there should be some items thrown away by Empress Boa Hancock here, but now they are nowhere to be found.

Xilu was full of suspicion and began to look around with a vigilant eye, trying to find clues to the missing items.

Just then, a slight wolf howl was heard from a distance.

"Ouch~!"
