Chapter 17: Waiting and Meeting

"It's a good harvest, but I still need to strengthen my Reiatsu and physique"

Although Luo Ning already has Admiral-level combat strength, this incident should have been reported to Marines Headquarters by now, and Luo Ning will face them next.

He didn't have any good feelings for Marine, after all, he was sent here by them.

Marine's strong people are not comparable to Impel down. To be honest, neither Magellan nor Shiryu has Admiral-level combat power.

Magellan's poison has a certain advantage over others, so it seems to be very powerful.

But facing Luo Ning, his poison was completely useless.

Not to mention Shiryu, facing Admiral is also the end of being unilaterally slaughtered.

And how many Marine Admirals exist? Needless to say, three Admirals. Sengoku and Garp, even though their strength has declined due to their age, they probably still retain Admiral-level combat power.

There are also several Admiral candidates and a group of Vice Admirals. This force, if Luo Ning doesn't add the current free points to the main force, it will be difficult to fight them.

Therefore, this largest sum of freedom points must be used to enhance strength. Relying on the ability of The Visionary to match his current physique and Reiatsu, it should be enough to deal with the next Marines Headquarters.

The Marines can't send all three admirals at once, so helping with the fight is the next best option.

With the Marines' help, you'll be stronger and can be ruthless in this world.

He looked at Magellan and Shiryu, but Luo Ning didn't care. They're tough and won't die from those injuries, but the knocked out jailer might.

Luo Ning didn't want to kill them either. Back on the fifth floor, he tied them all up with rope and dragged them to the entrance, at least they wouldn't freeze to death.

Ivankov, hiding in the shadows, didn't feel well. The strange energy affected him too, though thankfully he didn't lose consciousness, his fighting spirit was definitely drained.

He figured everyone in his shemale paradise must be out cold by now.

Actually, Luo Ning spotted Ivankov a while back. Luo Ning has a knack for danger and can sense of Reiatsu.

While people here don't have that kinda of energy, they do have souls, and Luo Ning can pick up on soul fluctuations. The stronger the soul, the wilder the fluctuations and the stronger the presence.

That's how Luo Ning knew Ivankov was there.

Truth be told, if it was anyone else, Luo Ning wouldn't hesitate to take their power. It wouldn't be much for him now, but even a tiny mosquito is still meat.

But the only person he dreads seeing is Ivankov, it makes him really uncomfortable.

Luo Ning has a hard time understanding this world's culture. There are men who dress and act like women in other worlds, but there are just way too many here, they even have their own country. And this Ivankov guy, who ate some kind of Devil Fruit that changes people's sex, makes Luo Ning feel awful. So he'd rather just avoid him altogether.

Ivankov went back to his special place on level 5.5. Morley, one of the commander in the Revolutionary Army, opened those floors, but the army wasn't around yet back then.

Titans live way longer than people.

Both Ivankov and Morley could escape, but Ivankov's taking a long nap right now. He's waiting for Dragon to start to move before going out to respond.

In the original story, Luffy showed up and made him leave the prison early.

He for sure has a way to contact the boss, Dragon.

Even before Luo Ning sent those people to safety, the Marines HQ was already talking about Impel Down.

At first, with Magellan and his men there, they didn't need the Marines' help.

But things got worse. The people on the first floor soon found that all the connections on the lower floors were broken.

Even Magellan and his men weren't reachable, so they had to call Marines HQ for help.

***

Sengoku, at the HQ, heard the news and called all the Admirals and Vice-Admirals for a meeting right away.

The only Admiral there was Aokiji. Kizaru was out on a mission because of his speed. As for Akainu, he is a restless guy, gives Sengoku a headache, so Aokiji was left behind.

"Marshal, what's going on? Why the big meeting?"

Aokiji asked, confused. This must be serious.

Sengoku's face was grim. "Impel Down just sent a message. Director Magellan, Deputy Director Hannyabal, and all the guards - have all lost contact!"
