(Please speed up the pace, One Piece is almost over.)
At Marineford, Sengoku, after reviewing the intelligence report handed to him by Tsuru, breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction. He addressed the three admirals present, saying, "It seems the plan was successful. Whitebeard suspects that Wang Han captured Ace and handed him over to us. Although Wang Han offered his explanation, as we expected, due to Wang Han's infamous reputation, Whitebeard still didn't believe him and fought a fierce battle. Whitebeard suffered very serious injuries, and Wang Han left the Whitebeard Pirates with his crew."
"Furthermore, after Whitebeard fought Wang Han, he also revealed a way to deal with Wang Han's spatial abilities." Tsuru continued, "Wang Han's devilish spatial abilities have a time limit. Every time he uses his spatial abilities, there is a minimum two-second interval between when he can no longer use them. Moreover, the stronger his spatial abilities are, the longer this interval will be. In addition, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit can also counter Wang Han's spatial abilities."

Time waits for no one, nor does it speed up for anyone. A week later, amidst the intense scrutiny of everyone, the orphaned son of Pirate King Roger, the adopted son of Whitebeard, and the Fire Fist Ace with a bounty of 500 million, will finally be publicly executed at Marine Headquarters.
On this day, the Navy also mobilized a large number of skilled fighters, waiting for Whitebeard's arrival.
"Marshal, the latest intelligence has arrived. The Black Armor Demon King Han has appeared in the New World and defeated the Anti-Four Emperors Alliance half a day ago. He is now hunting down the escaped members of the Anti-Four Emperors Alliance." A naval rear admiral in charge of intelligence reported to Sengoku.
"Phew." Sengoku breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Although they had found a way to deal with Wang Han, if Wang Han attacked today and helped Whitebeard, even if they made ample preparations and killed Wang Han today, the entire world government would suffer heavy losses, since they would be dealing with both Whitebeard and Wang Han at the same time.
Time passed second by second.
Sengoku asked the Marine officer in charge of intelligence beside him, "Are there still no signs of the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"Fleet Admiral, there's still no sign of the Whitebeard Pirates," the Marines quickly replied. "Could it be that they're not coming?"
“Impossible, Whitebeard will definitely come; he won’t abandon his family,” Sengoku said.
"Look at the port, everyone!" a naval officer shouted, drawing everyone's attention to the port.
"Splash..." In the inner harbor in front of the Marineford naval base, one huge ship after another rose from the sea.
"It's the Whitebeard Pirates and his affiliated pirate crews."
"They came in from underwater after being coated." Sengoku smiled as he looked at the appearing ships. Whitebeard had indeed come after all.
"Kurarara, Sengoku, it's been decades..." The white-bearded, majestic figure stood at the bow of the Moby Dick.

"Whitebeard has already made his move, so it's time for me to make my move too." Wang Han smiled as he looked at the footage being played on the live Den Den Mushi in front of him.
Before Wang Han, a disheveled pirate heard Wang Han's words and his eyes rekindled with hope. He said urgently, "Don't kill me! I... I can help you fight the Navy and Whitebeard. Please don't kill me. I'll go fight anyone you want..."
"Pfft." Before the pirate could finish speaking, Wang Han killed him in one fell swoop. "No, to me, you'd be more obedient if you were dead."
"Death, take his soul." After killing the last member of the anti-Four Emperors alliance, he ordered the Death beside him.
"Next target, Impel Down, the underwater prison." After saying this, Wang Han disappeared into the distorted space with Death.
———————————————
Impel Down, the world's largest prison in the One Piece universe. Located on the seabed in the Calm Belt, it boasts exceptionally tight security. Confined to the most dangerous criminals, it's a truly terrifying place. Entry requires wearing Seastone handcuffs (only usable by Devil Fruit users) and undergoing a physical examination as a precaution. It's monitored by various monstrous guards and visual Den Den Mushi (snail phone) surveillance. Its strongest fighters possess strength comparable to a Marine Admiral, the highest-ranking officer in the Marine Headquarters. Furthermore, due to its location in the Calm Belt, Impel Down is known as an impregnable fortress.
"It seems Luffy and his crew have already left. Those who were supposed to escape have escaped, and we'll hunt down the ones who shouldn't have escaped later."
In Impel Down, to the astonishment of the Marines cleaning up the mess, Wang Han, clad in black armor and covered in blood, appeared on the first level of Impel Down in a distorted space, uttering words that terrified them.
"Yes, yes, it's the Black Armor Demon King Han." The Marines were terrified when they saw King Han appear, the one they wanted to imprison in Impel Down all the time. Impel Down had just been ravaged and a large number of pirates had escaped. This demon had chosen this moment to arrive.
"Request support from Naval Headquarters immediately."
"Report to Naval Headquarters immediately."
"Everyone, retreat immediately!"
The officers shouted in terror, urging their soldiers to hurry.
"My plan can't be ruined by you." Seeing the prison guards trying to use Den Den Mushi to call for help, Wang Han quickly completed a dozen hand seals, and a huge barrier enveloped the entire Impel Down, isolating it from all contact with the outside world.

Marineford, Marineford. The war between Whitebeard and the Navy is nearing its end. After a fierce battle, the Whitebeard Pirates finally rescued Ace. However, an unexpected incident occurred during their retreat.
"Die, Straw Hat!" Akainu roared, aiming his right fist, which was oozing magma, at Luffy's chest.
"Luffy!" Everyone panicked as they watched Luffy being killed by Akainu.
"Luffy." A figure in orange-red spread his arms and stood in front of Luffy, it was Ace.
Seeing Ace blocking Luffy's path, Akainu's lips curled into a triumphant smile. At that moment, everyone's eyes were bloodshot with rage.
"Boom..." A huge cloud of dust and dirt shot into the sky, obscuring everyone's view.
"Ace! Luffy!" The pirates who came to rescue him were heartbroken as they looked at the spot where the three had been, now covered in dust and dirt. It seemed their mission had failed; despite the heavy price and the sacrifice of so many comrades, they still couldn't bring Ace back.
"Whitebeard, you're pretty badly injured. Looks like I'm a bit late. I hope you don't mind." As the dust settled and the dirt settled, Wang Han casually said, one foot on Akainu's head, who was lying on the ground, to everyone's astonishment.
"We're saved." Ace breathed a sigh of relief.
"Kuralalala..." The white-bearded man laughed loudly. "Wang Han, you're not late at all, the timing is just right."
