Shortly after Magellan and the others who accompanied Hancock to meet Ace left, Jinbei looked at Ace and asked.

"Ace-san.... What is that woman said to you?"

Ace also answered.

"She said.... My little brother is here...."

Hearing that answer, Jinbei was wide-eyed in surprise!

"Your brother the Straw Hat boy!? How reckless!"

"...."

After they were silent for a while, Jinbei spoke again.

"Ace-san.... I don't know why that woman said that to you, but you better not believe what she says...."

Hearing this, Ace was a little emotional.

"You mean she came all the way here just to lie to me!?"

Ace snapped denying Jinbei's suspicions!

"...!"

Jinbei was a little surprised that Ace would get that emotional.

"Jinbei... I know myself what is my little brother like! I know how reckless he is! .... Since childhood, he always worries us!"

"...."

They then fell silent again.

But, not long after, a purple-black tear suddenly opened in the space.

Of course it's Lepus opened the gap again and spoke to them.

"That's right. That rubber brat is really troublesome.... And Jinbei, don't be you talk badly of my wife!"

""Hm!?""

Ace and Jinbei were quite surprised by Lepus' sudden appearance and what he said.

Jinbei then looked at Lepus and asked confused.

"Who is your wife? And you yourself?"

"I'm Rex Lepus.... And my wife of course the woman who was just here, Boa Hancock."

"What!?"

"That woman is your wife?"

Ace and Jinbei were quite surprised by Lepus' statement about Hancock.

"Yeah.... Do you think that rubber brat came to Impel Down by making himself a human catapult?"

Hearing Lepus' words, Ace then realized something.

"You mean...."

Lepus then smiled a little and acknowledged his actions.

"Yeah.... My wife and I helped him. But, only until the surface floor. The rest he had to do himself.... Don't ask how the rubber boy met us and why we helped him. It's a long story and I don't want to bother explaining it."

""...""

Hearing Lepus' confession, Ace and Jinbei fell silent. They didn't think that someone could infiltrate Impel Down!

Seeing that they were silent, Lepus then decided to leave.

"See ya...."

After leaving Ace and Jinbei's cells, Lepus went to Catarina Devon's cell where she's detained.

After finding it, with a grin Lepus then said to the ugly old witch.

"Hello, Crescent Moon Hunter. The Reaper is here...."

Seeing Lepus' grin and hearing what he said, Catarina Devon frowned.

"Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. Your death is coming! .... Idle-Move Boundary!"

After a purple-black ray bond her, Devon realized that she can't move and she's pretty shocked!

"What!? Why I can't move!? .... What do you want!?"

"Your power...."

Then, without further ado Lepus did the same process as when he took the Goro Goro no Mi from Enel. That is killing the owner of the devil fruit power, then making the existing 'devil' move to an ordinary fruit that has been prepared!

Lepus take out his sword Oborozuki and then stabbed at Devon's left chest!

*jleb

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"

Hearing Devon's wails, the other prisoners who previously laughed at Lepus shuddered. Now they realized that Lepus was not bluffing at them!

"Gahk!"

Devon cough some blood and then her eyes looked empty. She's dead!

Then, one of the fruit, a stalk of bananas, experienced a phenomenal change into a devil fruit!

The devil fruit is in the form of a stalk of nine bananas, yellow collored with white tips, and covered in black swirl stripes typical of devil fruit!

Succeeded!

"So this is the Mythical Zoan devil fruit, Inu Inu no Mi: Kyuubi no Kitsune.... Nice...."

Lepus then stored the devil fruit in his gap storage.

Then, Lepus returned to wandering around this Level 6.
