Chabaoti Archipelago
Xia Qi's rip-off bar.
The still charming proprietress leaned against the bar, her chin supported by her right hand, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, and she looked kindly at the three graceful young girls who had changed into clean clothes and dressed up.
"No! This newspaper is lying! It was that man who helped us! Not only that, he also killed many hateful Celestial Dragons!"
The three sisters, who had been so cautious and trembling even when drinking juice before, now spoke loudly and angrily because of the content in the newspaper.
"Okay, don't be angry, girls. This is how the newspapers published by the world's government are. You can only see what they want others to see. So, you just need to know the truth in your own hearts."
"As for the rest, that's not something you can control right now. Also, I'll ask someone to send you back to Amazon Lily as soon as possible. You must be careful in the future and don't get captured by bad guys again."
Xia Qi walked forward, gently touched the hair of the three people, and comforted them in a doting manner.
The three of them hadn't felt such warmth for a long time. For a moment they felt both enjoying it and a little embarrassed, their rosy faces were very lovely.
“Ah, but this is really a major event that shocked the whole world! What a scary man!!”
Xia Qi couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the photos in the newspaper.
The good news is that it now seems that Barrett has taken all the credit for this incident, and he has attracted all the firepower by himself, so that the World Government has no time to care about these escaped slaves. Even Fisher Tiger, who liberated the slaves, has only a bounty order and has no chance of being mentioned in the newspapers at all.
"Aunt Xia Qi!"
Hancock was about to speak when Shaqi interrupted her by pressing her index finger on her upper lip.
"I'm still so young, it's polite to call me sister, Hancock~!"
"Uh... Xia Qi... Sister, I want to ask where this Impelton is? What kind of place is it?"
"Impelton, that's an underwater prison that belongs to the World Government. It's also the largest prison in the world. It holds countless vicious prisoners. It's an extremely dangerous place."
Seeing the three of them blinking their eyes in anticipation, Xia Qi, who was very smart, immediately saw through the three sisters' naive thoughts, so she made a "cross" with her hands on her chest to remind them.
"I still say the same thing. Now you can only keep this kindness in your heart. As for the rest, it is not something you should consider."
"Oh! We know."
The three of them agreed dejectedly.
"Crack!"
"Jingle bell!"
The door of the bar with a sign saying "temporarily closed" was pushed open. The copper bell on the door rang pleasantly, and the three sisters immediately hid behind the bar vigilantly.
Xia Qi knew without even a glance that the person coming was her old lover. She calmly lit a cigarette and said.
"Well, why don't you ask for a few days off, then borrow a small boat from the company and help me send these three juniors back, okay? Rayleigh? Although you will lose tens of millions of Baileys if you ask for a few days off, it is the Calm Belt after all, so I feel more at ease if you go."
Rayleigh sat down at the bar, first smiled at the three girls, then poured himself a glass of wine and began to speak.
"It doesn't matter whether it's money or not."
Rayleigh raised his gold-rimmed glasses and smiled.
He is no longer the slave Lei who had to sell his body to get millions of dollars for gambling and drinking. As a man with a monthly salary of 200 million, he now speaks much more confidently at home.
"Given my position in the company, using a public ship for personal purposes is not a big deal."
Rayleigh's expression suddenly became serious.
"But I'm afraid I can't leave just yet."
"What's wrong?"
Xia Qi frowned.
"You should have read today's newspaper. The current situation gives me the feeling that it is a bit like the calm before the storm!"
Rayleigh said seriously.
"Then wouldn't it be a good opportunity for you to go to the Amazon Lily Kingdom and get away from the heat?"
After Xia Qi finished speaking, she rolled her eyes, her expression became a little strange, and asked.
"By the way, Barrett seemed to be a member of your Roger Pirates before, right? Could it be that you retired old guys want to break the prison?"
After hearing about the prison break, the three girls nearby became alert again.
"Ahem! Please forgive me. I am already an old man, and I am still trying to break into the prison. I am afraid I will have to go in and reunite with him."
Rayleigh said awkwardly.
"If not you? Then who else would want to save people?"
Xia Qi was even more confused.
"Well, it's just my guess. Anyway, something big is likely to happen in the near future. We should prepare first and then wait and see carefully."
Rayleigh explained vaguely that he did not tell Xia Qi about Gel and the mysterious organization, fearing that she would be implicated if something happened, so he only said that the Golden City was not simple and he wanted to sneak in and work while observing secretly.

Bird's Nest Island
In the conference hall
There were only six people sitting in front of the big round table: Moriah, Ginny, Big Bear, Morgans, Mosan and Fanny. However, there were more than a dozen small Den Den Mushi of different colors on the table, and in the middle was a large Den Den Mushi that was encrypted and prevented from eavesdropping.
"Hehehe, then, those of you with smart brains, tell me if you have any plans to rescue people? Or should we just keep it simple and attack Impelton directly?"
Moriah asked first.
Although Captain Gill was not around, they would occasionally have conflicts and quarrels due to different opinions, but for matters related to the safety of their partners, there would not be the options of "save" and "not save".
"Vice Admiral Garp and General Sengoku have already personally escorted the people to Impelton. It's probably too late to rescue them midway."
A black-eyed Den Den Mushi said.
"How about everyone wait for a while? I'll find a chance to send pirates to Impelton in the next few days and see if I can get some useful information?"
What Ajin was thinking in his mind was that he must find an opportunity to rescue the people first. He didn't want to see the two sides go to war. In his opinion, there were still many righteous people in the navy, and it would be a pity if they died.
"Hehehe, actually it shouldn't be a problem for me to sneak in and rescue the people, as long as I can find Barrett."
Moria said confidently.
"Then make a plan based on that."
Mosan suggested.
Ginny threw the child in her arms to Big Bear, took out a notebook and started writing and drawing.
"First, we need to gather intelligence from within. It would be best if we could get a diagram of Impelton's internal structure and the location where Barrett is being held. I'll leave this to you, Ajin."
"Ok!"
"Then Moria sneaked in to rescue people. We have to prepare for the worst here."
"The worst result is that I'm exposed before I find Barrett. Then we'll change to forcefully attack Impelton! My zombie army has a great advantage in the dark prison. If everything goes well, we should be able to completely conquer Impelton within a day. The rest of you just need to help me block the navy's support. When Barrett and I get out of prison, we won't have to worry even if the navy moves all its troops here."
Moria said with a smile.
"Okay, this is Plan B for the worst. When the time comes, we will intercept the reinforcements..."
"..."
Soon the plan was gradually improved.
"Finally, we have the fishman army. After successfully rescuing the people, we will retreat directly from the bottom of the sea!"
Ginny summarized after going through each link.
There were soldiers, generals, money, and food, everything they needed. As a military strategist, Ginny said she had never fought such a rich war. In just a few minutes, she worked out a perfect and feasible battle plan.
"It's okay, big sis!"
A Den Den Mushi with a long, serrated nose said excitedly that after listening for so long, he finally had a job of his own.
"By the way, Arlong, where's Jinbe?"
Ginny asked.
Aaron was stunned and asked doubtfully.
"Huh? Isn't Brother Jinbei on Bird's Nest Island? He ran out as soon as he saw the news."
"Oh, that might be on the way."
