One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

After leaving the Sabaody Archipelago, Ling Tian's figure was as fast as lightning, and the power of the Wind Ring roared around him. He had only one goal in mind - Impel Down. It was a large underwater prison that held many dangerous people, and Ace was among them.

"Ace, wait for me, I will definitely rescue you." Ling Tian muttered to himself while flying, with determination in his eyes.

After a long flight, Ling Tian finally arrived above the Push City.

The huge underwater building was like a sleeping beast in the deep sea, exuding a depressing atmosphere. The gray walls looked particularly cold under the dim light of the deep sea, and the towering watchtower was like a devil's horn, pointing straight up.

"This is the Impel Down City. It looks really fortified." Ling Tian couldn't help but sigh. His eyes slowly swept over the cold building, trying to find possible entrances and weak points.

At this moment, a warship sailed towards the city of Impel Down, cutting through the water, white spray splashing from the bow, and the naval flags on both sides of the hull fluttering in the sea breeze.

"Hmm? This warship came at a good time." Ling Tian's heart moved, and he looked at the warship with his eyes slightly narrowed. A thought quickly flashed through his mind, "This should be the warship escorting the pirates into Impel Down. If I can use this to sneak in, it would be a good opportunity."

Thinking of this, Ling Tian flew towards the warship below without hesitation. His body drew an almost invisible trajectory in the air, like a hunting falcon, swooping down silently towards the target.

Soon, Ling Tian quietly arrived on the warship. He carefully avoided the patrolling navy soldiers and shuttled in the corners of the warship like a shadow.

"The guards on this warship are quite strict, but it won't be a problem for me." Ling Tian whispered softly. His eyes were fixed on an entrance leading to the lower level of the warship, which should be where the pirates who were about to be escorted to Impel Down were detained.

He slowly approached the entrance and was about to go in when he suddenly heard a conversation between two navy soldiers.

"It is said that the pirates we are escorting this time are very powerful. The superiors have specifically warned us to be careful." A young navy soldier said with a hint of nervousness on his face.

"Hmph, no matter how powerful they are, they can never do anything wrong once they reach Impel Down." Another older navy soldier said disdainfully, but there was still a hint of caution in his eyes.

Ling Tian listened to their words and sneered in his heart: "Wait until I rescue Ace, and then we'll see how arrogant you can be."

He took advantage of the moment when the two soldiers turned around and slipped into the entrance like a gust of wind.

Inside was a dark passage, with dim oil lamps hanging on the walls on both sides, emitting a faint light. Ling Tian walked carefully along the passage, keeping his ears open to the surrounding movements.

Suddenly, there was a sound of chains and low curses coming from the front. It should be the pirates being escorted. Ling Tian knew that he was one step closer to his goal, but the danger was also approaching step by step.

Soon, Ling Tian quietly crawled into a room where pirates were imprisoned, like a civet cat. The room was filled with a damp and rancid smell, and the dim light flickered in the corner, as if it would go out at any time.

The pirate was originally sitting in the corner bored, but when he suddenly saw Ling Tian coming in, his eyes suddenly widened and he was about to open his mouth to shout loudly.

"Shut up! If you make another sound, I won't be polite." Ling Tian lowered his voice, his eyes showing a hint of coldness. The pirate was frightened by Ling Tian's momentum and shut his mouth instantly, but his eyes were still full of vigilance and doubt.

Before the pirate could speak again, Ling Tian grabbed the guy with lightning speed. The pirate wanted to struggle, but in front of Ling Tian's powerful strength, he was as powerless as a chicken.

"You guy, just stay here for now." Ling Tian said as he mercilessly threw him into a prison in the virtual space.

Ling Tian thought to himself: "This prison was originally intended for Luffy and his friends to simulate how to escape if they were caught. Now it is left to this unlucky pirate. I hope he can behave himself in there and not cause any trouble for me."

After throwing the pirates in, Ling Tian concentrated his mind and activated his ability to change his clothes into prisoner's clothes. He looked at his worn and stained clothes and nodded with satisfaction.

"Humph, now I look like a real prisoner." Ling Tian whispered to himself.

After doing all this, Ling Tian sat on the ground with a swagger, looking dejected, waiting to be imprisoned in the Push City.

His ears were always alert to the movements outside, and his mind was constantly thinking about the situations that might occur next and how to deal with them.

"I hope this disguise can get in smoothly." Ling Tian frowned, feeling a little worried, but more determined, "No matter what, for Ace, I must succeed."

After a while, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps and the scolding of naval soldiers outside.

"Behave yourself!" a rough voice shouted.

Ling Tian knew that the critical moment was coming. He took a deep breath, making his expression look more panicked and helpless, while secretly adjusting his state to prepare for the upcoming challenge.

Soon, a neat and heavy sound of footsteps came from afar, and a lieutenant general with a group of marines came in front of Ling Tian.

The lieutenant general was a burly man with a serious face and a look of military sternness and majesty in his eyes. He stood at the door of the cell, like a small mountain, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"Is this the pirate? He doesn't look anything special." The vice admiral frowned and said with some disdain.

When the marines heard the admiral's words, they all laughed in agreement. One of the marines said flatteringly, "Admiral, no matter how he looks, once he is in our hands, don't even think about playing any tricks on him."

After arriving in front of Ling Tian, ​​the group of marines began to act according to the procedure. A marine took out a bunch of heavy keys from his waist, picked out a key from among the many keys, and walked towards the door above the prison.

"Clack, clack." The sound of the key turning in the keyhole was heard, accompanied by the difficult sound of the rusty lock core, and the door was slowly opened.

"Boy, be quiet!" a Marine shouted at Ling Tian, ​​pointing a gun at him.

After the door opened, the navy rushed forward and roughly lifted Ling Tian up. They held Ling Tian's arms tightly, with such force that it seemed as if they wanted to crush his bones.

"Hmph! Don't use so much force. I can't run away." Ling Tian pretended to be in pain and complained with a frown.

"Stop talking nonsense! Get out of here!" A marine pushed Ling Tian hard and escorted him outside.

Ling Tian could only lower his head and let them push him forward, but in his heart he was secretly planning his next move in the city.
