One Piece: Dark Sky.

"For 'freedom', although I haven't met the late Princess Otohime of your country, I often hear about her from Tiger. I admire her very much. I also promised an old friend before that participating in this war this time is actually helping him fulfill his wish."

Bahn sat in the middle of the empty hall of the Dragon King Palace, raised his head slightly, and said to the King Neptune of Murloc Island with such a huge body sitting on the throne.

Neptune nodded slowly when he heard Bahn's words, but he let out a sigh of relief. The beautiful figure that had long since disappeared in his life appeared before him again after hearing Bahn's words.

"'Freedom'? This is indeed Otohime's greatest wish when she was still alive, and it is also something she has been working hard to achieve, but..."

When Neptune said this, his tone was a bit embarrassing. In fact, the king of the fish-man island has always been in a neutral state for what Princess Ottohime has been doing. He neither publicly expressed his support, nor ordered the organization. In fact, Neptune, who loves Ottohime deeply, also hopes that her wish can be fulfilled.

Hearing Neptune's words, Barn also nodded heavily, and said to Neptune.

"I heard Tiger say something about Princess Otohime. In fact, Tiger was also there on the day Princess Otohime was shot..."

Bahn said indifferently, but upon hearing Bahn's words, a trace of surprise appeared on Neptune's face.

"What? Didn't Tiger already..."

Before Neptune finished speaking, Bahn knew what he wanted to say, took Neptune's words, and said.

"Tiger didn't die at that time, everything was arranged by me, because at that time the only way to escape the pursuit of the navy... But in the end he still died in the hands of the navy, it was my fault, I didn't think carefully."

When he said this, Bane lowered his head apologetically, and there was a trace of guilt in his heart. In fact, the relationship between Tiger and Bane was not that close, and they were even just ordinary friends. They were just comrades who shared the same ideals. Bane also did what he should do, killed the yellow ape, and avenged Tiger.

Hearing Bahn's words, Neptune nodded and said with a sigh.

"I also saw the newspaper in the previous paragraph. I thought it was a fake news released by the navy, but I didn't expect that person to be Tiger...Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for avenging Tiger."

Bahn raised his head slightly, but said in a deep voice.

"This is what I should do."

But at this time, White Beard suddenly said.

"Okay, Barn, let's stop here for Neptune's chat. There are only six hours left before Ace's execution time. The coating work on our ship in the Sea Forest should also be completed. Let's go now."

Saying that, the resolute Whitebeard stood up from his seat, turned around and was about to leave. Seeing Whitebeard like this, Bane didn't say much, straightened up silently, and bowed in Neptune's direction...

Seeing Bane bowing to him, King Neptune of Murloc Island immediately stood up and said with some panic.

"Mr. Bahn, you are..."

"Once again, I apologize to you..."

Bahn lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"This……"

The great knight of the deep sea who has always been known for his calmness, Neptune, the king of Murloc Island, was a little at a loss by Barn.

"We're leaving now."

In the end, it was Bahn who straightened up and helped Neptune out of the siege. After hearing Bahn's words, he also turned around and followed Whitebeard's footsteps.

"Well, Mr. Barn, Mr. Newgate..."

And just when Barn and Whitebeard turned to leave, Neptune stopped them...

"Ok?"

Hearing Neptune's voice, Bahn and Whitebeard paused and turned their heads slowly.

"Uh... I wish you success."

Seeing Bahn and Whitebeard who had turned around, Neptune finally did not express his worries, but only said this sentence.

But Bahn and White Beard laughed when they heard it, and nodded at him.

In fact, Bahn and Whitebeard both knew what Neptune didn't say. Neptune was worried. As the lord of the country, he had indeed made great efforts to maintain the superficial peace of the Murloc Island.

At this time, there are still six hours left before Ace's public execution... Garp has been away for a while...

Garp set his sights on Ace from the very beginning when he arrived here, and didn't look anywhere else. In fact, in the room where Ace was held, there was another person, or a murloc...

Like Ace, the thick iron chain was wrapped around his body without hesitation, and the clothes on his body were already soaked with blood from the wound on his body, but he didn't say a word, just sat there, breathing steadily.

The entire lowest level prison has been kept in a terrifying silence, and at this time, from Ace's room, there was a sound of iron chains ringing.

It's the man locked up with Ace...

And at the moment the sound sounded, a huge 'monster' with human hands and feet but a huge bull-shaped head came down, and in his hand was holding a huge mace that was still dripping blood...

He walked to the room where Ace was being imprisoned without saying a word, opened the door of the cell, and walked in with his head down, but walked towards the other person who was tightly huddled by the wall, and raised the mace in his hand high.

And the monster that seemed impossible to make a human voice spit out human language in a low voice, just listen to him.

"No one...don't even think about...escape from here!"

Following his words, there was the huge mace in his hand, and the spikes on the mace stabbed fiercely at that person's body!

"Hmph..."

But that person didn't let out a scream, just snorted, and then lowered his head...

And the bull-headed monster didn't say a word after finishing all this, just dragged the mace that was stained with blood again, walked out slowly, and closed the prison door...

The prison at the lowest level once again fell into that deathly silence...

"I can't even scratch an itch..."

After the minotaur walked away, the man locked on the wall said in a deep voice.

But after hearing the man's words, Ace slowly opened his tightly closed eyes, looked to the other side, and said in a low voice.

"You were beaten again..."

And hearing Ace's words, the guy who was locked on the other side slowly raised his eyelids, and looked at Ace who was also covered in blood and said.

"Huh... the body doesn't hurt at all! Brother Ace... what I really hurt is the heart that cannot be benevolent!"

"Jinbe..."

"If things go on like this... I won't die with peace, what is the title of Qiwuhai..."

"You don't need that kind of thing!"

"If this war can be stopped... I will not regret my death!"

When he said these words, Jinbei's face that didn't respond to the torment of the minotaur closed his eyes tightly in pain...

Imperton, which was rarely visited by people, has become extremely lively today. First Garp, and then the Pirate Queen. At this time, the bottom of Imperton, where the most evil criminals in the world are imprisoned, once again heard the sound of footsteps...

That man was wearing a hat with the Imperton jailer's logo on it, a cigar dangling from a face that didn't look very familiar, a huge cloak, a pair of black leather boots knocking on the ground and making a heavy sound, and a very slender sword was pinned to his waist. This man was the lowest-level warden in this deep-sea prison, second only to the director Magellan in strength, Shiliu of the Rain...

With heavy steps, he walked slowly to the cell where Ace was held, raised the handle of the knife in his hand, and lightly tapped the bar made of steel...

"Fire Fist Ace... get ready, the warship to pick you up has arrived..."

On the other side, the Holy Land Marie Gioia, the restaurant in the Navy Headquarters...

Almost all the items on the table were wiped out, but most of them went into Blackbeard's stomach. The lieutenant generals of the Navy Headquarters never touched the pair of tableware in front of them from the moment those Shichibukai walked in...

In the navy, apart from Ah He, who had no appetite, only Zhan Guo was eating with relish. At this time, everyone had put down their hands, just like that, quietly watching Zhan Guo eat.

Maybe it's because there are so many things going on recently that he doesn't even have time to eat. The Warring States may be really hungry. Although the movements of eating are elegant, the movements are not dissatisfied at all. There are three completely clean empty plates piled up beside him...

After Zhan Guo put the last piece of beef on the fork into his mouth, he finally put down the tableware in his hand, reached out and tore off the napkin tied around his neck, wiped his mouth, and finally stopped moving.

"Okay, let's get ready, the warship has already gone to pick up Ace..."

And just as the words of the Warring States Period were finished, there was a piercing sound of chairs rubbing against the ground in the originally quiet restaurant.

It was Blackbeard Titch, who laughed and pulled his chair away, speaking rudely to those who were still sitting at the table.

"Hey... I drank too much wine, I'm going to take a pee, you go first..."
