Vol. 05 Ch. 05 – Impel Down 1/2

Belo Betty, the Revolutionary Army's executive, commander of the East Army, she has a very strong position in the organization and has power over all of her soldiers. Belo Betty is a tall and slender woman, she has purple hair with a bob cut hairstyle. Her pale green eyes and red lipstick are still visible even though she is still in the custody of the Marine.

Belo Betty is a very charismatic orator. With her Devil Fruit powers, she inspires many people to fight. Pump-Pump Fruit is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to encourage and mobilize people to awaken their latent potential for battle. For a Commander, this Devil Fruit power is very beneficial where Belo Betty is able to turn a group of helpless citizens into strong warriors and able to conquer the Grand Line's pirates crew with just a stick.

The Marine and the World Government knew how important Belo Betty and her abilities were to RA, so they set a trap. Their thinking was so precise because Dragon knew and realized how important Belo Betty was in his organization so he would do anything to get her back. But Dragon also knows that the Marine and World Government will set up a trap so he needs someone strong like Arthur to free Belo Betty. But no one knows that Arthur's main goal is Impel Down and the Devil Fruits that the prisoners have, not Belo Betty.

Sengoku: "According to reports from Doberman, there is no movement from the Revolutionary Army to save Belo Betty." Fleet Admiral Sengoku who sat with the admirals and vice admirals read the report from the Doberman.

Sakazuki: "That trash don't care about other trash." Harsh criticism by Admiral Akainu.

Borsalino: "Hu ... do you think Dragon is like that?" Admiral Kizaru was skeptical of the criticism.

Sengoku: "I also don't think that he will let his organization's executive get caught... again. But if he doesn't act until now then the only possibility is after this. " Sengoku also didn't think Sakazuki's words were true.

Tsuru: "The most likely is that they will block the Gates of Justice because they won't be able to enter the Tarai Current and breakthrough Impel Down. But I feel like something is still missing. " Vice-Admiral Tsuru calmly expressed her opinion while drinking tea from her glass.

Sengoku has the same thoughts as Tsuru, no one has managed to enter the Tarai Current without passing the Gates of Justice. The Tarai Current is a giant whirlpool forming a triangle connecting the three main facilities of the World Government, Enies Lobby, Impel Down, and Marineford. On the side of the triangle, there is a current that keeps ships away from the Tarai Current and ships inside the Tarai Current will continue to follow the current when the gates are closed.

What Tsuru and Sengoku missed is that they won't think that Arthur will save Belo Betty while the ship is still at Marineford. With Monet's ability, Arthur and Baby-5 managed to infiltrate Marineford port. And with Baby-5's ability to allow them both to move without being seen in front of Belo Betty's cage.

Betty: "Finally arrived, you trash." Belo Betty grumbled when she saw Baby-5 and Arthur suddenly appear in front of her.

Arthur: "I'm also glad to see you again, Betty."

Arthur waved his hand at Belo Betty's prison cage and immediately heard a * click * sound from the keyhole of the Sea Stone cage holding Belo Betty. Although Arthur couldn't do anything about Sea Stone's confinement, it was different from the inner structure of this cage lock. As long as it's not a Sea Stone, Arthur can change it with his Devil Fruit.

Betty: "What's taking you so long?" Belo Betty stood up and walked out even though her hands were still handcuffed by the Sea Stone.

Arthur: "There are some obstacles." Arthur immediately used [Heavenly Art] to transform into Belo Betty.

Betty: "Beautiful and attractive clothes, but why did you turn into me, trash? And why did you also bring out the RA flag? " Belo Betty criticized Arthur for changing his appearance according to the appearance of Belo Betty when she first appeared in the One Piece anime.

Baby-5: "Young Master Arthur ..."

Baby-5 also didn't know what to say when she saw Arthur transform into Belo Betty who wore a red hat that had goggles and a pair of red horns on the front while the back of the hat was covered with long white fur. While her body is barely covered because she only wears a red jacket which is left open with an additional tie hanging around her neck. A short lacy skirt at the front and a long back made of red and white striped stockings plus red thigh-high boots.

Arthur: "I want to infiltrate Impel Down under the guise of being you, after this, you can leave with Baby-5." Arthur explained briefly as he/she took off his/her red-rimmed sunglasses and walked into the confinement of the Sea Stone.

Betty: "Hope you don't rot in there, trash." Belo Betty doesn't ask much about Arthur's goals.

Arthur: "Oh ... are you worried about me?"

Betty: "Can you get me out of here now?" Belo Betty ignores Arthur by asking Baby-5 to take him out.

Baby-5: "We'll be waiting for you at the place you planned, Young Master Arthur. Hopefully, everything goes well. " Baby-5 immediately sprouted wings on her back and [Fairy Dust] flew around her and Belo Betty until the two of them could no longer be seen.

Arthur: "Sate sate, what will happen next."

Arthur's original plan went smoothly and the Marine didn't notice it either. Even though in the middle when the ship was still anchored several Marine troops ran to the place where Belo Betty was locked up and found 'her' still there so they seemed relieved and reported the situation through Denden Mushi. Arthur had already pulled out a coat to cover his/her clothes from the storage ring so the Marines didn't get suspicious. And, finally, Arthur felt that the warship was starting to move made him/her smile. (Whatever)

Baby-5 and Belo Betty had made it back to Athena safely without the Marines knowing. When they both arrived in Athena, Robin asked Law to open the Sea Stone handcuffs in Belo Betty's hand by cutting off both of her hands and re-connecting them after the handcuffs were released.

Law: "[Room]… [Amputate]… [Shambles]" Law easily does it with his Devil Fruit powers.

Betty: "It felt weirds feeling in my hands when they were cut but I can still move them." Belo Betty examined her hands which had fallen off the Sea Stone handcuffs.

Hancock: "So Arthur managed to pretend to be her and was going to infiltrate Impel Down alone." Hancock wanted to confirm the state of Arthur from Baby-5.

Baby-5: "Yes, everything is fine. So we can wait at the location young master Arthur has determined. " Baby-5 felt she shouldn't be telling the story about Belo Betty's appearance that was in Arthur's imagination.

Robin: "Okay, we have to go around the Tarai Current so it will take us a little longer but that can also give Arthur time to act. Monet, can you still feel the [Mark] that Arthur was carrying? "

Monet: "I can't feel it, even though I don't feel the [Mark] that I secretly made on Arthur's body but the [Mark] that was left by Baby-5 I can still feel near Arthur's cage." Monet answered Robin's question while closing her eyes and swap her consciousness to [Mark] near Arthur's prison.

Betty: "Hey, when are you guys going to call RA and take me back to East Blue?" Belo Betty, who heard of the ART Pirates' plans, never mentioned what happened to her.

Hancock: "Why are you still here?" Hancock's question left Belo Betty speechless.

Betty: "..." Its the first time Belo Betty met someone who was more arrogant than her.

The day passed quietly and Arthur arrived at Impel Down.
