Feeling the faint heat flow coursing through his body, replenishing his internal organs like manna after rain, constantly mending Chen Fan's injuries.

After devouring a whopping 30 pounds of meat, Chen Fan devoured himself. His body's injuries improved slightly, and the wounds on his appearance began to scab. The severity of Chen Fan's injuries this time was unimaginable.

However, the fact that he successfully broke through to the second level of the armed color domineering showed that it had all been worth it.

...

The next day, the sun blazed in the sky.

Chen Fan sensed that the injuries on his body had nearly healed, so he continued his usual routine of training.

He carried stones on his back, started doing push-ups, and after completing 20,000 push-ups, he refueled with a hearty meal.

Then he began the horse stance squats, lifting boulders on his back as he had with the push-ups. Only this grueling regimen left Chen Fan feeling sore and utterly exhausted.

This demonstrated that Chen Fan's strength and physical fitness had grown exponentially since three years ago.

By evening, Chen Fan commenced training in both the armed color domineering and observation haki.

Such monotonous and uninspiring days repeated themselves, day in and day out, month after month.

Time flowed like grains of white sand.

Two years later.

At this moment, Chen Fan had just finished his push-ups. He tossed aside the boulder from his back and wiped the sweat from his brow.

His muscles and bones harmonized with a resounding roar, resembling the thundering of tigers and leopards.

A casual swing of Chen Fan's fist could generate a powerful gust of wind.

Compared to two years ago, his strength had grown immeasurably. Both his observation haki and armed color domineering had reached the pinnacle of the second level, just one step away from breaking into the third.

Furthermore, he had also developed the second move of the Navy Six Style Aoyi.

At this moment, a corpse lay nearby, that of a fifth-tier pirate.

His bounty exceeded 100 million berries, and he held the rank of a major general within his organization.

Yet, he had still fallen to Chen Fan's might.

This illustrated that Chen Fan's current strength was closing in on the level of a lieutenant general within the organization.

Originally, he was just approaching the strength of a lieutenant general, and Chen Fan wasn't entirely confident about breaking out of prison.

However, he had recently heard from other fifth-tier prison inmates that the warden of Advance City had resigned a month ago.

Magellan had become the new warden.

Upon hearing this news, Chen Fan decided it was time to escape.

Magellan's strength had not yet reached its peak, and it was far from general-level strength. Rain Xiliu was also not at his peak.

This meant that Advance City was currently at its weakest point in terms of combat strength. If Chen Fan didn't seize this opportunity to escape, he might never find another one.

You see, Advance City was renowned as a prison from which no prisoner could escape.

The primary reason was that the warden of Advance City typically possessed strength equivalent to that of a strong general, and he also had two or three lieutenant generals serving under him.

Moreover, Advance City was situated very close to the Navy Headquarters. If anyone attempted to escape, the Naval Headquarters could send reinforcements within an hour.

Hence, escaping through brute force required at least the combat power of a general, and even then, the chances of success were slim.

After all, the warden of Advance City was no pushover.

With a simple consideration, Chen Fan believed that the current moment was the best opportunity to advance to the city and bring in the new era.

Without hesitation, Chen Fan prepared to escape from prison. With his current strength, he was already on the fifth tier, and he couldn't find an opponent who posed a life-threatening threat.

His strength had also reached a plateau; whether it was physical fitness or haki, a short-term breakthrough seemed impossible.

If he continued like this, who knew how long it would take before he could execute his escape plan?

The main issue was that, in a few years, both Magellan and Rain Xiliu would grow stronger, making it even more challenging to escape.

Determined, Chen Fan had a plan forming in his mind.

Without hesitation, he sat on the 5.5th floor to rest, preparing himself for peak condition.

Half an hour later, Chen Fan felt that he had reached his optimal state in terms of physical strength and haki.

Afterward, he left the 5.5th floor and headed for the entrance to the sixth tier.

"Click, click, click."

The iron door opened, allowing Chen Fan to step into the room. Two guards who had been lounging were taken aback by the audacity of a pirate who barged in unannounced.

Before they could raise the alarm, Chen Fan executed a "Shave," vanishing from their sight with incredible speed. With terror-stricken expressions, the guards watched as Chen Fan struck them down one by one, blood spurting.

The two guards were now lifeless.

Chen Fan then located a set of keys on the table. These keys corresponded to each cell on the sixth floor, as well as handcuffs and chains for every pirate.

He didn't linger but ascended to the sixth floor through the stairs.

"Tick, tick, tick, tick."

Suddenly, an alarm sounded within the prison. Chen Fan knew that the Navy had discovered something amiss through the videophone bug.

He quickened his pace and pushed open the door.

A beam of light pierced the darkness of the sixth tier.

Many pirates were drawn to this sight, having heard the alarm.

When they saw Chen Fan, who had been presumed dead, opening the door, they were bewildered.

"Could I be mistaken? That's not Chen Fan."

"You're right, I remember what he looked like when he first came to prison, and although he's changed a lot, I still recognize him."

"Isn't this guy supposed to be dead? How is he here, and how did he open the door to the sixth floor?"

...

Many pirates were filled with perplexity.

"Chen Fan, why are you here?"

"Did you trigger the alarm?"

"Hey kid, I didn't expect you to really be planning an escape. Hurry and let me out, and I'll join you."

"Yeah, set me free, I'm ready to follow you."

"Release me, and I'll be your crew."

"That's right, kid, free me, and I'll be your loyal follower."

...

The pirates shouted in confusion and anticipation, each hoping for their chance to escape with Chen Fan.
