Screen 1 — Secret Boarding to Impel Down
The Marine warship sits waiting at the shore of Amazon Lily, its deck full of armored soldiers preparing for departure. None of them know the Empress is bringing three unwanted guests.
Boa Hancock walks up the ramp with royal confidence, Kuja warriors following behind.
Behind her cloak… Luffy hides, completely unseen.
Luffy whispers:
"Is the coast clear…?"
Hancock doesn't turn her head.
"Yes. Stay quiet."
---
Sans Disappears Into the Shadows
Just a few steps behind, Sans casually walks with the group.
But as the Marines look away, his eye flickers once — not bright, just enough for a shortcut.
He steps forward…
…and slides directly into Hancock's shadow, becoming almost invisible.
Sans:
"heh. shadow express. easy ride."
No Marine notices him.
Not even the smart ones.
---
Papyrus the "Statue"
Two Kuja warriors carry a tall, dramatic skeleton draped in a sheet.
Papyrus, completely stiff, whispers loudly:
Papyrus:
"AM I STATUE ENOUGH, SANS?"
A Marine stares curiously.
"What's that?"
A Kuja soldier snaps:
"This is the Empress's royal statue!
Do not touch!"
Papyrus freezes even harder, posing like some ancient relic.
Marine:
"…Right. Sorry."
Sans whispers from the shadow:
"nice posture."
Papyrus whispers back proudly:
"I AM A MASTER OF STILLNESS!"
---
Hancock Boards the Ship
The Marines salute as she passes.
Marine Captain:
"Welcome aboard, Lady Hancock!
We're honored to carry a Warlord."
Hancock nods with her usual elegance.
Boa Hancock:
"Set sail immediately."
The ship pulls away from Amazon Lily as the sun rises, heading into the calm waters — and straight toward the world's most terrifying prison:
Impel Down.
Three hidden stowaways —
a pirate captain,
a shadow-walking skeleton,
and the most theatrical "statue" ever —
begin their infiltration.
Screen 2 — Entering Impel Down
The Marine ship sails into a dark, swirling sea vortex.
Chains rattle. Gates rise. Sea Kings circle like guards.
At the center of it all stands a towering black fortress shaped like a giant iron cylinder sinking into the ocean itself:
Impel Down.
The world's most feared prison.
Luffy peeks out from under Hancock's cloak.
Luffy:
"WHOA… this place looks terrible."
Sans whispers from the Empress's shadow:
Sans:
"bad vibes all around.
even the walls look depressed."
Papyrus, still pretending to be a statue, trembles.
Papyrus (whispering):
"THE ARCHITECTURE SCREAMS 'DO NOT ENTER'!
WHY ARE WE ENTERING!?"
Hancock keeps her composure as the ship docks.
Marine Officer:
"Lady Hancock, we've arrived at Impel Down Level 1.
Thank you for your cooperation."
Hancock:
"Of course."
The Marines escort her inside through massive steel doors.
She walks proudly…
…carrying three secrets with every step.
---
The Prison's Structure
Sans quietly explains to Luffy and Papyrus what he overheard:
Sans:
"impel down's got six levels.
each one worse than the last."
Papyrus whispers:
"HOW WORSE ARE WE TALKING!?"
Sans:
"level 1 — needle forests, animal guards.
level 2 — monsters.
level 3 — starvation pits.
level 4 — boiling heat.
level 5 — frozen hell.
level 6 — legends too dangerous for the world."
Papyrus screams internally.
Papyrus:
"I DO NOT LIKE THIS ROADMAP!"
Luffy clenches his fists.
Luffy:
"Ace is down there somewhere.
We're not leaving without him."
Sans nods once.
Sans:
"then we go down.
all the way."
Hancock approaches the entrance checkpoint — the gate to hell itself — while the trio prepares for the most dangerous infiltration of their lives.
Screen 3 — Luffy's Infiltration Begins
Boa Hancock's part of the mission ends at the main gate.
With her role completed, she turns to the trio one last time.
Hancock:
"This is as far as I can take you.
From here on… you're on your own."
Luffy nods firmly.
"Thanks. We'll get Ace back."
Sans gives a small salute.
"appreciate the ride."
Papyrus waves both arms dramatically.
"THANK YOU, EMPRESS!
WE SHALL BE BRAVE BONES!"
Hancock exits with the Marines, leaving the three alone inside the world's deadliest prison.
The door slams shut behind them.
The infiltration officially starts.
---
Luffy Gets Discovered Instantly
Luffy, still wearing a torn piece of Hancock's cloak, tries to sneak past Level 1 guards.
Luffy:
"Okay… stay quiet… be sneaky…"
He steps on a metal grate.
CLANG!
The sound echoes across the entire floor.
Guard:
"INTRUDER!!"
More guards rush in.
Guard 2:
"Wait… THAT'S STRAW HAT LUFFY!!"
Papyrus slaps his skull.
"LUFFY, THAT IS NOT STEALTH!"
Sans sighs.
"the cloak plan lasted 5 seconds. new record."
---
Instead of Running… Luffy Charges Forward
Luffy cracks his knuckles.
Luffy:
"If they found me, then I'll just fight my way down!"
He launches forward with pure determination.
Gum-Gum Pistol!
A guard gets launched across the room.
Papyrus charges behind him.
Papyrus:
"FOR JUSTICE AND BROTHERHOOD!"
He summons bone spears that block incoming guards.
Sans teleports beside Luffy, hands in pockets.
Sans:
"i'll clear the back. you handle the front."
A beast from Level 1 — a huge red demon-bull — charges toward them.
Luffy:
"Perfect timing!"
He lands a punch to the beast's jaw, knocking it aside.
Sans summons two blasters and fires at the ground, creating smoke to confuse the guards.
Papyrus throws a bone wall in front of the charging jailers.
Papyrus:
"NO PASSING! ONLY BONES!"
---
Charging Deeper Into Hell
With alarms blaring and jailers shouting, Luffy sprints toward the staircase to the lower floors.
Luffy:
"Ace is counting on me!!"
Sans teleports next to him.
Sans:
"level 2's gonna be worse. get ready."
Papyrus runs behind them, terrified but determined.
Papyrus:
"I AM READY!
WELL—NO, I'M NOT! BUT I WILL BE!"
Together, the trio rushes deeper into the depths of Impel Down.
Their infiltration has fully begun.
Screen 4 — Buggy the "Ally"
As Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus sprint down Level 1, alarms echo through the halls.
Sirens:
"INTRUDER ALERT! STRAW HAT LUFFY LOCATED!"
Luffy:
"Gotta move faster!"
Papyrus points ahead.
"LOOK! A PRISON CELL WITH BRIGHT RED HAIR!"
Inside the cell, a familiar voice screams—
Buggy:
"HEY!! LET ME OUT!! IT'S ME, THE GREAT BUGGY!!"
Luffy stops immediately.
"Oh yeah! Buggy!"
Sans leans against the bars.
"wow. never thought i'd see you in jail again. actually, i did."
Buggy freaks out.
"SHUT UP, YOU TALKING CORPSE!
AND YOU—LUFFY!! GET ME OUT OF HERE!"
Papyrus gasps dramatically.
"A CLOWN IS ASKING FOR HELP! WE MUST ASSIST!"
Sans shrugs.
"sure. why not."
---
Buggy Escapes
Luffy pulls the bars apart like rubber.
Buggy slips through instantly.
Buggy:
"FINALLY! I'M FREE!
Praise me! Fear me! Worship the gre—"
He stops when he sees the guards rushing in.
Buggy:
"RUN!!"
---
Forced Team-Up
The strange team heads down into Level 2.
Screen 5 — Level 2: Wild Beast Hell
The staircase shakes as Luffy, Sans, Papyrus, and Buggy descend into Level 2: Beast Hell — a massive cavern filled with roaring, impossible monsters.
The moment the group steps inside, the ground trembles.
A giant basilisk slithers out from the shadows, fangs dripping with venom.
Buggy:
"WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!! TURN BACK!!"
Papyrus stares up at it.
"WOW! IT'S BIGGER THAN A HOUSE!
CAN I KEEP IT AS A PET?!"
Sans sighs.
"no pets, bro."
---
The Beast Attack
The basilisk lunges.
Luffy stretches forward—
"Gomu Gomu no… Rifle!"
Sans flicks his wrist, creating a blue telekinesis field to slow the creature's bite.
Papyrus slams a giant bone down from above.
"BEGONE, LARGE REPTILE!"
The basilisk crashes into a stone pillar and collapses.
Buggy watches, shaking.
"You three are MONSTERS!!
…Uh… no offense to the skeletons."
Sans shrugs.
"none taken."
---
More Creatures Appear
Three more beasts crawl out:
– A massive scorpion with steel-like armor
– A Minotaur zombie
– A giant man-eating plant snapping at the air
Buggy screams and runs in circles.
Luffy grins.
"This place is awesome!"
Sans:
"awesome isn't the word i'd use."
Papyrus cracks his knuckles.
"THEN
"THEN LET US CLEAN UP THIS LEVEL!"
---
Quick Battles
Luffy punches the Minotaur into a wall.
Sans freezes the plant mid-snap using blue magic and flips it upside down.
Papyrus knocks the scorpion over with a bone bridge.
Buggy accidentally defeats a small beast by tripping and landing on its tail.
Buggy:
"I-I DID THAT!! I'M A LEGEND!!"
Sans:
"sure, buddy."
---
Meeting Mr. 3
As they move deeper, a voice echoes:
"Luffy… Buggy… you idiots!!"
A prisoner steps out from behind a boulder —
Mr. 3, the wax man, covered in dirt and broken pride.
Luffy: "Oh! Candle guy!"
Papyrus: "HELLO, WAXY FRIEND!"
Sans:
"this just got more interesting."
Buggy panics.
"Oh no… the troublemaker squad is growing!"
Screen 6 — Level 3: Starvation Hell
The air grows hotter as Luffy, Sans, Papyrus, Buggy, and Mr. 3 descend into Level 3: Starvation Hell.
The temperature rises like they stepped into a furnace, and the smell of burning sand fills the air.
Buggy begins sweating instantly.
"WHY IS IT SO HOT!? I'M A CLOWN, NOT A ROASTED PIG!!"
Sans wipes imaginary sweat from his skull.
"wow. feels like someone forgot to pay the air-conditioning bill."
Papyrus lifts his arms dramatically.
"THIS HEAT SHALL NOT STOP THE GREAT PAPYRUS!"
Luffy's stomach growls.
"I'm hungry… really hungry…"
Sans:
"welcome to starvation hell, kid."
---
Reunion With Bon Clay
A familiar voice cries out from a nearby pit:
"LUFFYYYYY!! MY SWAN FRIEND!! IS THAT YOUUU!?"
Luffy's face lights up.
"BON-CHAN!!"
Sans and Papyrus wave excitedly.
Papyrus:
"HELLO, NEW FRIEND WHO LOVES TO POSE!"
Sans smirks.
"didn't think we'd find the ballet master in this sauna."
From the shadows, Bentham (Mr. 2 Bon Clay) jumps out, spinning in a perfect ballerina pose despite the heat.
Bon Clay tears up dramatically.
"My dear friends! I thought I'd never see you again! Look at your beautiful bones! So stylish! So symmetrical!"
Papyrus blushes — or tries to.
"I KNOW! THANK YOU!"
Buggy groans.
"Great. Another weirdo joins the chaos."
Mr. 3 crosses his arms.
"This group is getting ridiculous…"
Sans:
"and we're not even halfway down."
---
A Quick Alliance
Bon Clay hugs Luffy so tightly that even Sans raises a brow.
Luffy:
"Bon-chan! We're breaking into the lower levels to save Ace!"
Bon Clay gasps.
"THEN I SHALL JOIN YOU! FOR FRIENDSHIP AND DRAMA!!"
Papyrus cheers.
"MORE FRIENDS MEANS MORE HEROIC POSES!"
Sans nods.
"let's go before we turn into grilled skeletons."
Screen 7 — Level 4: Blazing Hell
The moment the group enters Level 4, the heat hits them like a punch.
The floor is cracked stone glowing red.
Rivers of boiling blood bubble below metal walkways.
Explosions of fire erupt from vents in the ground.
Buggy drops to his knees immediately.
"I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE! I'M MELTING!!"
Sans squints at the lava.
"yeah… this place looks like my workplace on a monday."
Papyrus lifts his chin proudly.
"THE HEAT ONLY MAKES MY BONES SHINE MORE BRIGHTLY!"
Luffy wipes sweat from his face.
"Where's Ace?!"
Bon Clay fans himself dramatically.
"This place is a nightmare! A sweaty, fiery, fashion-destroying nightmare!"
---
The Chief Warden Appears — Magellan
A low rumble spreads across the level.
Prisoners scream.
Guards scatter.
Then the monster arrives.
A towering figure with horns, giant wings, and a devilish silhouette —
Magellan, Chief Warden of Impel Down.
His entire body drips with poison — purple venom constantly oozing and sizzling on the floor.
Sans stares.
"…that guy needs medicine."
Papyrus hides behind Luffy.
"HE LOOKS VERY… VERY… VERY DANGEROUS!"
Luffy's fists clench.
"I don't care! I'm here for Ace!"
Magellan's deep voice echoes across the level:
> "Straw Hat Luffy…
you've caused enough chaos.
This is where your journey ends."
Buggy and Mr. 3 scream together.
"RETREAT!! ABANDON THE IDIOT!!"
Bon Clay grabs Luffy's shoulders.
"MY FRIEND! THIS MAN IS A WALKING TOXIC DISASTER!"
Sans watches Magellan carefully.
"poison logia… huh. this is gonna be a headache."
---
Magellan Attacks
A massive blast of poison dragon surges toward them.
Luffy:
"Everyone move!!"
Sans opens a blue telekinetic field, slowing the poison just enough for the group to dodge.
Papyrus throws bone pillars to redirect the toxic waves.
Magellan narrows his eyes.
"You skeletons… interesting."
Buggy shrieks.
"NO! NOTHING INTERESTING HERE! WE'RE NORMAL, I SWEAR!!"
Luffy charges in.
"Gomu Gomu no… Jet Stamp!"
Magellan counters with a poison hydra, forcing Luffy back.
Sans:
"we need a plan. fast."
Papyrus:
"I VOTE WE RUN!"
Luffy shakes his head.
"I'm not leaving without Ace!"
---
The group braces as Magellan releases even more venom, turning the entire floor into a death zone.
To reach Ace, they'll have to survive the strongest warden in Impel Down.
Screen 8 — The Poison Overwhelms
Magellan's patience runs out.
Poison erupts from his body in a terrifying wave — a massive hydra of toxic liquid twisting across the entire floor. The heat of Level 4 mixes with the fumes, turning the air thick and impossible to breathe.
Buggy, Mr. 3, and Bon Clay scream and scatter in every direction.
Papyrus raises a bone shield.
"THIS IS TOO MUCH EVEN FOR THE GREAT PAPYRUS!!"
Sans braces himself, eye glowing.
"luffy… this guy's not playing around."
Luffy charges forward anyway.
"I'm not stopping! I need Ace!"
Magellan explodes with another surge of venom.
The toxic wave smashes across the area, shaking the entire level.
Sans tries to slow it with telekinesis, but the poison burns through the air itself.
Papyrus shouts,
"BROTHER! I CAN'T HOLD THIS BACK!"
The poison floods the floor.
---
The Collapse
Luffy coughs, unable to push through the toxic clouds.
Sans' bones tremble; even he can't stand against the sheer volume of poison spreading everywhere.
Papyrus stumbles, overwhelmed by the fumes.
Luffy falls first.
Papyrus collapses next.
Sans tries to keep his balance, grabbing onto the railing.
Sans:
"…sorry, guys… we're going down."
The poison pressure becomes too intense.
Sans finally drops to his knees and falls unconscious beside Luffy and Papyrus.
---
Magellan's Verdict
Magellan stands over them, silent.
> "This is the end for you three.
No one escapes Impel Down."
Screen 9 — Level 5: Freezing Hell
Sans, Luffy, and Papyrus are dragged down into the depths of Impel Down until the guards reach Level 5 — Freezing Hell.
The temperature drops instantly.
Snow blasts through the air.
The cold is so extreme it feels like it cuts through bone.
The guards toss them into the frozen wasteland.
Magellan's voice echoes from above:
> "Let them freeze. No one survives Level 5."
---
Bon Clay's Desperate Search
Hours later, Bon Clay sneaks into Level 5, shivering uncontrollably.
He pushes through blizzards and ice walls, calling out:
"LUFFY! SANS! PAPYRUS!
PLEASE ANSWER ME!!"
Wolves circle him; he kicks them away while stumbling in the snow.
Bon Clay refuses to stop.
"I WILL NOT LET MY FRIENDS DIE HERE!"
Finally, he spots three shapes buried in the snow — Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus, barely conscious.
Bon Clay collapses beside them.
"DON'T WORRY! I'LL SAVE YOU!!
EVEN IF I FREEZE FIRST!!"
He drags their bodies through the storm, slipping and falling but never giving up.
---
A Hidden Rescue
Just when Bon Clay is about to collapse from the cold, a pair of massive figures appear in the snowstorm.
Silhouetted by icy wind:
Inazuma and Emporio Ivankov — the leaders of the secret Newkama hideout.
Ivankov leans down with a dramatic wink.
"My, my! You brought quite the strange trio, Bon-chan!"
Inazuma nods.
"We'll take them underground. Quickly."
Bon Clay sobs in relief.
"PLEASE SAVE THEM! PLEASE!"
Ivankov grins confidently.
"I am Emporio Ivankov, miracle worker!
They will LIVE!"
---
Into Level 5.5 — Newkama Land
Inazuma opens a hidden crack in the wall.
Bon Clay carries Luffy.
Ivankov and Inazuma carry Sans and Papyrus.
They slip into a secret space between levels —
Level 5.5: Newkama Land,
a warm, hidden refuge unknown to the guards.
Colorful lights shine.
Warmth returns.
People cheer.
Bon Clay collapses from exhaustion — but smiling.
Sans, Luffy, and Papyrus finally have a chance to survive.
Screen 9 — Level 5: Freezing Hell

Colorful lights shine.
Warmth returns.
People cheer.
Bon Clay collapses from exhaustion — but smiling.
Sans, Luffy, and Papyrus finally have a chance to survive.
Screen 10 — Ivankov's Miracle Treatment
Inside Level 5.5: Newkama Land, warmth and light replace the freezing darkness of Level 5.
Luffy, Sans, and Papyrus are laid out on recovery beds as Emporio Ivankov begins his treatment.
Ivankov spreads his arms dramatically.
"Stand back! This will be… a MIRACLE!"
---
Luffy's Treatment
Ivankov injects Luffy with "tension hormones" and anti-poison stimulants.
The process is rough — Luffy's body twitches and strains from the effort of fighting Magellan's poison.
Ivankov wipes his forehead.
"This one… is pushing himself too hard.
He's burning his own life to survive."
Bon Clay bites his lip, worried.
"How long… how long will he fight!?"
Inazuma answers calmly:
"Luffy needs twenty hours to recover."
Ivankov nods.
"He will lose about ten years of life expectancy…
but he WILL live."
Papyrus clenches his fists.
"LUFFY! STAY STRONG! WE'RE WAITING FOR YOU!"
Sans sits quietly beside the bed.
"…kid always pushes past limits. but… he'll make it."
---
Sans and Papyrus' Treatment
Ivankov turns to the two skeleton brothers.
He blinks in confusion.
"Uh… there is no poison to treat here?"
Sans shrugs.
"bones don't absorb venom. benefits of being dead."
Papyrus raises his arms proudly.
"I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, AM IMMUNE TO ALL FORMS OF TOXIC ATTACKS! INCLUDING BAD PERFUME!"
Ivankov laughs.
"Well then! You two are fully recovered.
Practically instant!"
---
Waiting for Luffy
Hours pass.
Newkama Land celebrates, but Sans and Papyrus sit near Luffy, keeping watch.
Bon Clay kneels with them.
"I won't leave his side… not for a second."
Sans rests his chin on his hands.
"ace is being moved as we speak…
we need the kid to wake up soon."
Papyrus nods firmly.
"LUFFY! WE MUST SAVE YOUR BROTHER! WAKE UP AND LEAD US!"
The clock ticks down.
20 hours.
Luffy's fingers twitch —
the first sign he's fighting back.
Sans looks up.
"there it is.
he's coming back."
Screen 11 — Level 6: Eternal Hell
After twenty hours, Luffy wakes with fiery determination.
Sans and Papyrus help him steady his steps as the group heads deeper —
to Level 6, the bottom of Impel Down.
The temperature drops again.
The air becomes heavy and silent.
This place doesn't feel like a prison — it feels like something the world wants to forget.
Bon Clay shivers.
"This is… the place where people are erased from history…"
Ivankov nods grimly.
"Only the most dangerous criminals are kept here. Their crimes too great… their existence too inconvenient."
---
Ace Is Gone
Luffy reaches the final cell block.
Empty chains.
Broken shackles.
A quiet echo.
Ivankov speaks:
"Ace… was already taken to Marineford for execution."
Luffy slams his fist into the stone wall.
"I'm too late! But I'm still going after him!"
Sans places a hand on his shoulder.
"we'll catch up. we still got friends to free."
Papyrus salutes.
"WE SHALL SAVE ACE AND PREVENT ANY MORE SAD ENDINGS!"
---
Meeting Jinbe and Crocodile
Two voices call out from the shadows.
The first belongs to a towering fish-man with calm but powerful eyes —
Jinbe, former Warlord.
Jinbe:
"Straw Hat Luffy. I will help you escape this place.
Your brother is important to me as well."
Papyrus beams.
"OKAY, FISH-MAN FRIEND! WE ACCEPT YOUR HELP!"
The second figure steps forward, smirking —
Crocodile, the fallen Warlord.
Crocodile:
"Well, well… Straw Hat and his skeleton circus."
Sans narrows his eyes.
"you're hiding something. haven't changed much since alabasta."
Crocodile snaps back instantly.
"Shut up, skeleton. Don't pretend you understand me."
Ivankov laughs loudly.
"Oh, I understand him.
After all… I know Crocodile's biggest secret."
Crocodile freezes for half a second — just enough to show fear.
Ivankov leans in.
"So behave… or I'll expose it."
Crocodile clicks his tongue.
"Tch. Fine. I'll help.
I have no intention of rotting here anyway."
Sans grins.
"good. welcome to the escape team, sandman."
Papyrus nods dramatically.
"LET US UNITE FOR JUSTICE AND FRIENDSHIP—
AND ALSO BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO DIE HERE!"
Jinbe smiles softly.
"You have strong comrades. Perhaps… hope still exists."
Screen 12 — The Great Escape
With Luffy awake and determined, the escape team climbs out of Level 6 and storms upward through Impel Down. The alarms shake the entire prison.
"INTRUDERS SPOTTED! BLOCK ALL LEVELS!"
Guards pour in from every corridor, but the new alliance is unstoppable.
Luffy, driven by Ace's fading time
Jinbe, calm and powerful
Crocodile, ruthless and efficient
Mr. 1, slicing through metal
Mr. 3, helping with wax barriers
Buggy, screaming but somehow helpful
Ivankov and Inazuma, bending rules and reality
Sans and Papyrus, blasting and bone-building their way through
Magellan returns, poison overflowing like a tidal wave.
But everyone pushes past him — not to win a fight, but to escape.
Sans blocks poison with blue magic fields.
Papyrus throws giant bones to create bridges across toxic puddles.
Jinbe shouts,
"MOVE! We must reach the main dock!"
---
Ace Is Gone
As they rise through the prison, Luffy repeats one sentence:
"Ace is at Marineford. I'm going after him no matter what."
His friends don't question it.
They follow.
Sans:
"we're not stopping until you get to ace."
Papyrus:
"YES! WE SHALL RESCUE HIM WITH OUR HEROIC SPIRIT!"
Even Crocodile smirks.
"Tch. Don't drag me down, Straw Hat."
---
Bon Clay's Sacrifice: The Gates of Justice
At the final stage of escape, the giant Gates of Justice block the crew.
The current is impossible.
The path is sealed.
Luffy yells,
"Bon-chan! Hurry and escape!"
But Bon Clay stays behind, taking Magellan's wrath head-on.
Through the transponder snail, he smiles:
> "GOODBYE, LUFFY!
I WILL OPEN THE GATE FOR YOU!
FRIENDSHIP WILL WIN!"
He hits the lever.
The Gates of Justice swing open with a roar.
Ivankov clenches a fist.
"Bon-chan… you truly are magnificent."
Papyrus wipes his eyes.
"NOOOO! HE WAS SO DRAMATICALLY HEROIC!"
Sans lowers his head.
"thanks, bon. we won't waste it."
---
Escape From the Impossible Prison
The escape ship shoots forward, current pushing them straight through the Gates before they close.
Behind them, Impel Down shrinks into the distance.
They've done the impossible.
No one has ever broken into Impel Down.
No one has ever broken out.
Luffy stands at the front of the ship.
"We're going to Marineford," he says quietly.
"We're saving Ace."
Sans grips his jacket hood.
"then let's hurry. time's running out."
Papyrus raises a fist.
"TO MARINEFORD! AND TO JUSTICE, FRIENDSHIP, AND DRAMATIC POSING!"
The crew sails toward the greatest war in the world.
Be continued
