Pirate: Master Of Hueco Mundo

"His Majesty."

With a "buzz", another light curtain opened in front of Gu Yue and Aizen, and the figure inside was the 8th Espada, SzayelAporro·Granz, who was in charge of collecting Devil Fruit.

"The seventh Devil Fruit has also been collected."

"You are doing well, SzayelAporro. Let's start the purification of the fruit right away," said Gu Yue.

"Yes!"

The light curtain quickly disappeared again.

"The seventh..." Aizen suddenly thought of something.

"That's right, it's the Devil Fruit of Magellan, the Director of Impel Down Prison." Gu Yue also sighed, "What a pity. Originally, Xiaolong Kufang, Di Roy, Edolad Leonis The battle between the three Arrancars and the Shinigami was very exciting, but I had to kill Magellan, the only witness.

"This guy is so stupid that he doubts the Shinigami who came to rescue him. This is very illogical in itself, and it is not His Majesty's mistake." Aizen said with a light smile.

"Maybe you still don't understand the horror of Impel Down. It's no wonder that our Void Legion took so much effort to barely break into the first floor, and you have no chance to see the other five floors."

"Is there...the fifth floor?" Aizen was obviously surprised. Not only was he surprised by this truth, but he was also very surprised by why Gu Yue knew this information.

"Impel down has six floors, and it is the place where the most vicious prisoners on the sea are held. The monsters on the lower floor are not without the guys who are as powerful as Marine Admiral. As the director of such a vicious prison, one must have the ability to Suppress the strength of those prisoners. The reason why Xiao Long and the other five were able to barely defeat Magellan was purely because of surprise, because Magellan didn't know Arrancar yet. Moreover, if Shinigami hadn't appeared to save him, if he persisted to the end, he might have died It ended in a complete mess. If so, the five Arrancars would have died worthless."

"It's just a small flaw in a fly in the ointment. In this battle, the winner is still us (afbf)."

"That's right. The battle of Impel down was crucial to our ambition. It not only saw the gap between us and Marine's strength, but also planted our time bomb behind the enemy. More importantly, we I got the spoils—heterogeneous spirits. The ticket to enter that world has already been obtained, and the future era will belong to Espada.”

"So, Your Majesty, what is our next goal?" Aizen asked.

"Don't worry, we still have to make preparations."

"Prepare?"

"Improve my own strength."

Gu Yue frowned tightly, and there were bursts of cold light in his eyes.

Seven days later, before Magellan.

Zhan Guo stood side by side with Garp, looking at Magellan's tombstone, for a long while, both of them were silent.

"Sengoku, have we really won this battle?"

Garp had mixed feelings in his heart, and a rare gloomy expression appeared on his face.

"Of course, we won."

Although Sengoku said victory on his lips, neither his tone nor his expression showed the joy after victory.

"The enemies were all defeated by us, and Impel down was defended. Those monsters called Xu and the Hueco Mundo master didn't get half of the benefits, and lost so much combat power in vain. Indeed, we won... Justice, yes There will be a price to pay," Sengoku said sadly with his eyes closed.

"But... the price will be too high.

A sea breeze blew, and the garland on Magellan's tombstone scattered its petals and fell at Garp's feet.

"Okay, cheer up," Sengoku patted Garp on the shoulder, "The others are still waiting for us, the meeting is about to start.

 ……

Naval Headquarters, Marineford.

"So, everyone, what are the countermeasures against the invasion of the Lord of Hueco Mundo?"

At the main table in the conference room, Marshal Buddha Sengoku asked.

"For those guys, we don't have a viable countermeasure just yet...."

Marine staff officer Crane closed his eyes and said helplessly.

"Even you have no countermeasures..."

Even Naval Headquarters' think tank Crane also said that there is no countermeasure, which undoubtedly poured cold water on Sengoku.

"Damn it, they have already occupied East Blue. Why did they suddenly turn their attention to Impel down this time? There are all vicious criminals there, and there should be nothing worth plundering. I really can't figure out their purpose!" Impel down Deputy Director Hannyabal growled indignantly.

"Could it be that they go to the prison to recruit soldiers and rescue those condemned prisoners for their use?"

"Their legions are all monsters called Hollow, or Arrancar. And according to Soul Society Shinigami's information, those Arrancar, including Espada, are all evolved from Hollow. In other words, they should It is an army formed based on the boundaries of race. It is unlikely that a few humans will be recruited into it. Qing Jin said clearly.

"Speaking of the Soul Society, are the so-called Shinigami really reliable?" Sengoku rolled his eyes and looked at Aokiji.

"At present we have no reason not to trust them, we also need such a group of allies." Aokiji thought of the scene of fighting side by side with Abarai Renji, paused and said slowly

"Also, Shinigami has already told us how to use the machine used to contact them.

"Bastard!" Akainu clapped his hands on the table and stood up with a serious expression, "How can you place your hopes on a group of guys with unknown origins!"

"Sakazuki, you went to Soul Society with me, why do you seem to have a big opinion on Shinigami?" Garp looked at Akainu and said.

"It's not that I have a problem with Shinigami. It's that we, as Marines, put our hopes on others. It's too shameful! Marine justice should be upheld by Marine itself!"

Kizaru sat on one side, with his hands behind his head, watching the Naval Headquarters cadres bickering, with an unpleasant smile on his face, like a monkey watching a theater. .
