Chapter 491: Emergency Escape
It has been ten months since the great Lord Buggy was imprisoned in Impel Down.
Bucky still can't forget the experience. That hateful man first forced them to perform a circus for a whole day, and then arrested them without mercy.
The most hateful thing is that he actually stole the treasure map belonging to Lord Buggy!
Even after being imprisoned in Impel Down for ten months, Buggy never forgot this hatred. The great Lord Buggy will escape from here sooner or later and take back his treasure!
Having said that, Impel Down is heavily guarded and is located in the doldrums. As a person with special abilities, even if Buggy manages to escape from the Impel Down gate, he will immediately become food for the Sea Kings.
But Buggy did not give up. Since the Golden Lion could escape ten years ago, then Lord Buggy could definitely do it too. It just requires perfect timing and a little bit of luck.
This luck had already been achieved on the day he was imprisoned. After experiencing the inhumane baptism, Bucky was surprised to find that the jailer had taken the wrong handcuffs after fishing him out and supervising him to change clothes!
"Ah~ Hahaha... Stupid guy !" When Bucky found out that his ability could still be used, he was so happy that snot bubbles came out of his nose. He didn't even bother to get angry when his cellmate called him a big red nose with a silly smile.
As long as you have the ability, jailbreaking quietly is possible!
From that day on, Bucky acted like an ordinary prisoner on the surface, but in fact he was investigating the terrain of the prison and the movement patterns of the staff.
Because the bounty on his capture was only 10 million berries and he was from the Weakest Sea, Buggy was not given enough attention and was easily classified as "unable to beat the Blue Ape", so he was assigned to the underground level.
This should be the floor that is easiest to jailbreak from. When he heard the news, Buggy couldn't help but imagine the scene of himself successfully escaping from prison, knocking down Zhang Daye, and taking back the treasure, and his expression gradually got out of control.
"What are you doing? Run!" The jailer whipped Bucky.
This was a daily punishment. The jailers would drive the prisoners into the 'Sword Tree' forest and have poisonous spiders chase them. Those who didn't want to die had no choice but to run at full speed, and then they would be covered in wounds from the blade-like leaves and grass.
In order to avoid exposing the fact that he could use his abilities, Buggy would escape alone every day. He would wait until the end of his punishment to tear his clothes and then find a way to get some blood on them.
After the punishment, Bucky would hide in a corner, control his ears to split out, and secretly eavesdrop on the conversations of the jailers or prisoners. If necessary, he would split his face out and stick to the roof to see something with his own eyes.
It’s a pity that the part of the body that splits off cannot move too far, which greatly slows down the speed of intelligence collection.
Fortunately, hard work pays off. After several months of hard work, Bucky finally knew the underground roads like the back of his hand and even planned the best escape route. All he needed was a chance to safely leave the doldrums.
Buggy had already thought of this. He understood that the Gate of Justice would only open when the ship carrying prisoners came to advance into the city. As long as he took that opportunity to slip out and secretly deal with the few marines who stayed behind, he could leave smoothly.
At that time, he could consider stealing the key from the management office and releasing some prisoners to create chaos. However, considering that the prisoners on his floor were weaklings who could not defeat the blue gorilla, Buggy was still a little hesitant. If Magellan took action, everyone would probably be poisoned to death.
There is still room for improvement in the plan, such as how to avoid the most difficult people, including the director, deputy director and warden.
The easiest to deal with was Magellan, because he spent eight hours sleeping and ten hours on the toilet every day, so it was very easy to avoid him.
As for the other two, it wasn't until today that Bucky found an opportunity. The two of them actually left at the same time and ran to the ground to receive guests.
The specific situation is unclear, but Buggy heard that a very important person was coming today, and if Magellan hadn't had diarrhea, he might have gone to greet him in person.
There's no better opportunity than this!
Bucky made a quick decision, splitting himself into small pieces and passing through the bars of the cell door.
"Bucky? You're a person with special abilities? Didn't they put seastone handcuffs on you?" The prisoner in the same cell looked at him in shock.
Buggy's upper body instantly assembled, floating in front of him and holding up a finger: "Shh~ Don't make any noise, idiot!"
"Listen up! Right now, I, Master Buggy, will steal the key and get you out of this place! If you want to get out, cover for me and pretend I'm still here!"
"Really?" The prisoners showed surprise. "Then I'll leave it to you! As long as we can get out of here, it doesn't matter if you're the boss!"
The criminals cooperated well and blocked the sight of the Den Den Mushi in every corner.
But after Buggy left, everyone looked at each other in tacit understanding and laughed, "Did that idiot really think he could escape?"
"Who cares? He'll be discovered soon anyway, and he'll be punished badly afterwards. Now we're going to have a good show. "
The prisoners themselves didn't believe they could escape, and in their opinion, Bucky's behavior was just asking for trouble.
However, they would be very happy as long as they could see others were more unfortunate than themselves. This was one of the few pleasures in this hellhole of Impel Down.
However, after leaving their sight, Buggy couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Who would go out of their way to save you, idiots? I was just being perfunctory because I was worried you'd start yelling . If you want to escape quietly, the fewer people the better. Ah~ Hahahaha..."
"Alright, now let's get serious about running! Shattered into pieces, fragment camouflage!"
In an instant, Bucky split into countless fragments less than five centimeters in size, scattered on the walls, roof, and floor, flying forward slowly. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see anything.
As for his feet, which could not leave the ground, he covered them with a piece of rag and moved slowly in the shadow of the corner.
Everything went according to plan. Buggy successfully escaped from the underground floor along the stairs without attracting anyone's attention. All he had to do next was leave the exit and seize the warship, and Lord Buggy would be completely free!
However, Bucky never expected that he would meet the second most hated person in his life on the first basement floor!
The man who put him in jail is actually here! Although he is wearing a navy uniform, there is no doubt that he is that man. Buggy said that he would recognize him even if he turned into ash!
Did that guy actually become a marine? Buggy wanted to pounce on him and give him a mini-Baki bullet, but suddenly noticed the people next to him: "Zezezezeze...Zefar!?"
That is, the mouth part was cracked, otherwise Buggy would definitely shout out. Why would the former admiral be here too?
Could it be that Zefa is the important guest that the prison is welcoming today?
In other words, the warship he is going to rob next is Zefa's?
Bucky swallowed in an unscientific way. It seemed too late to go back to his cell and wait for another chance. He felt that if he didn't succeed this time, his fellow inmates would definitely report him.
There is no other choice now, Buggy can only bite the bullet and continue. After all, he just wants to steal Zephyr's warship and there is no need to defeat him head-on.
"It seems like someone is watching us." Artoria said the same thing as Rui Mengmeng, and added, "It doesn't look like that Den Den Mushi."
"Hmm?" Zhang Da also unfolded his Observation Haki, picking up many faint 'sounds' around him. He asked, "Are there... rats in the prison? Or cockroaches?"
