Blackbeard had made meticulous preparations for this operation. He stood at the bow of the ship, gazing intently at the Impel Down that was gradually approaching.
He had faced countless dangers and difficulties to reach this place, and now he had finally achieved his wish.
He knew that this adventurous trip to Impel Down was a one-way journey, an important step for him to realize his ambition.
Blackbeard was well aware that the strength of the Navy had reached its lowest point in nearly a decade after several wars.
Especially under his carefully planned conspiracy, the Whitebeard Pirates were lured to Mariejois, and the Navy had to mobilize some high-level combat power to protect the safety of the Celestial Dragons.
This gave Blackbeard an excellent opportunity to realize his bold and crazy plan - to free all the pirates in Impel Down.
"The opportunity is at hand..." Blackbeard grinned coldly and muttered to himself, "Zehahaha... The notorious pirates in Impel Down, once they are free, their power will be at my disposal."
Although the plan seemed to be going smoothly, Blackbeard knew in his heart that the guards of Impel Down were not ordinary people.
Since its construction, Impel Down has been known for its tight defenses and high level of alert. Many once-invincible pirates have been suppressed here, losing their freedom and even their lives.
This operation is destined to be difficult.
He took a deep breath and decided to adopt a step-by-step approach, slowly infiltrating the depths of Impel Down.
In this sea area, his every step was full of calculation and testing.
No one knew the cruelty of this world better than him, and no one knew better than him that power and ambition were his only reliance.
"I heard that the Navy is escorting Whitebeard's two division commanders with a newly promoted admiral. I wonder if we will meet him?" Laffitte tapped his cane lightly, with a playful smile on his face.
He was full of anticipation for what was about to happen, and his eyes flashed with unconcealed excitement.
"I met that guy on Fish-Man Island," Vasco Shot said slowly, taking a sip of wine, his voice deep and powerful, "His strength should not be underestimated. His power is extraordinary. If we meet him, the duel will be extremely difficult."
"No matter who it is, they can't stop our ambition," Doc Q said faintly, his sickly body trembling slightly in the cold wind, but his tone revealed an unwavering determination.
He had unparalleled ruthlessness and calmness about the upcoming battle, and he was already accustomed to this life full of blood and killing.
Blackbeard listened quietly to their conversation, and he already had a clear plan in his mind.
No matter what obstacles he encountered in this operation, he would not back down.
For Blackbeard, the order of the world was just a joke. What he wanted was to stand at the top of the world, look down on all living beings, and control all power.
He looked at Impel Down again, the light in his eyes becoming more and more profound.
The prison was known for its cruelty and horror, but in his eyes, it was like an undeveloped treasure waiting for him to open.
"Get ready," Blackbeard said in a low voice, his voice full of domineering arrogance, "Impel Down, this time its history will be completely rewritten because of me. All those who stand in my way will be crushed mercilessly by me."
"Zehahahaha!!!"
With a wild laugh, Blackbeard's ambition completely exploded, and his plan had begun to be implemented step by step.
In this silent sea, his ship was slowly sailing towards Impel Down, and the wheels of fate had begun to turn.
At the same time.
Jin'an and Zefa stood on the deck of the warship, preparing to return.
However, at this moment, the two frowned almost at the same time, their eyes cast towards the distant sea.
They both noticed the pirate ship that was gradually approaching.
"Warlord of the Sea?"
Zefa's voice was low and somewhat cold, this was his most instinctive reaction.
In this sea area, no one dared to approach Impel Down easily except those pirates who enjoyed privileges.
This sea area was like a forbidden area. If ordinary pirates dared to set foot in it, they would definitely suffer a devastating blow.
Zefa's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly calculated possible countermeasures in his mind.
Jin'an stood aside, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, and a trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes.
He did not speak immediately, silently weighing the situation in his heart.
Although Jin'an remained silent, he already understood in his heart that the situation in front of him was unusual.
"Blackbeard... this guy is still eyeing Impel Down," Jin'an thought coldly in his heart, recalling his previous knowledge.
In the Battle of Marineford, Blackbeard shocked the whole world with his conspiracy and tricks, and now he seemed to have a new goal - the notorious pirates in Impel Down.
Impel Down, this prison known as absolutely unbreakable, has now become Blackbeard's next prey.
Jin'an felt a faint sense of unease in his heart. He had already seen through Blackbeard's ambition, but now no one would believe this speculation.
Moreover, he couldn't explain why he knew Blackbeard's purpose. With the Five Elders' current attitude towards him, they were likely to label him as Blackbeard's accomplice.
But Blackbeard was cruel and scheming, and would never do useless things.
According to Blackbeard's character, Jin'an guessed that he had probably been eyeing the fierce pirates in Impel Down for a long time, and wanted to take this opportunity to release them, adding powerful help to his forces.
"We have not received orders and cannot actively intervene in matters between Impel Down and the 'Warlords of the Sea'," Zefa said with some helplessness. He was a man who followed the rules and would not easily violate orders.
However, his tone hid a trace of unease and vigilance. Blackbeard's timing here was too coincidental.
Jin'an remained silent, but he was quickly making decisions in his heart.
Although they had not received a direct order to intervene, he knew what Blackbeard was going to do, "Teacher Zefa, cancel the order to return."
Jin'an's fingers clenched into fists involuntarily, and a long-suppressed fighting spirit gradually rose in his heart.
"Blackbeard, I hope you are prepared to not leave here alive."
He knew that Blackbeard would never easily reveal flaws, and this operation must be a carefully planned conspiracy.
Zefa's eyes swept over Jin'an from time to time, as if he had noticed his thoughts.
Although their mission had been completed and they were preparing to return, Zefa could not ignore the impending crisis deep in his heart.
He nodded lightly, acquiescing to Jin'an's decision.
The two looked at each other, and they already had a tacit understanding.
"We'll wait and see, and then take action if necessary."
Jin'an thought to himself, if Impel Down really encountered any special situation, they would never stand idly by.
Blackbeard's ambition was too dangerous, and he must not be allowed to succeed.
In this vast sea, the wind gradually became fierce. Blackbeard's pirate ship was slowly approaching Impel Down, while Jin'an and Zefa waited silently, like two falcons ready to strike at any moment.
