"boom!!!"
A loud noise was heard from the gate of Judicial Island, and the waves caused by the gate entering the sea rushed towards the shore of Judicial Island.
The navy and CP intelligence personnel on the island heard the noise coming from the portal almost immediately and began to look in that direction.
Although Judicial Island is an administrative agency directly under the World Government, there are more than 10,000 people living on the island. These people need housing, so there are actually many houses on the outermost edge of Judicial Island, which is no different from an ordinary town.
The only difference is that there are numerous Den Den Mushi on the streets of the town, and the leadership's orders can be transmitted to everyone on the island at the first time.
“Zizi——”
Shortly after the loud noise, a slight electric sound was heard from the speaker of the radio telephone bug.
"Intruders, there are intruders who have broken through the gate and entered the Judicial Island."
"Everyone head to the main gate and intercept the intruder!"
Soon, a slightly frightened growl came from the speaker of the radio telephone bug.
Although the person using the radio did not reveal his identity, the navy and CP intelligence officers, whether they were working or resting, hesitated for a moment after hearing the order, and then rushed towards the portal.
"Intruders? Intruders appeared on Judicial Island?"
"Who is it? This is a direct agency of the World Government. Attacking here is equivalent to declaring war on the World Government. What kind of person would attack here?"
Although the navy and CPs had many questions in their minds when they heard the order, they did not dare to hesitate after receiving it.
However, during the process of the navy and CPs gathering, from time to time someone would take out a Den Den Mushi to contact their superiors to confirm the situation. At the same time, the originally disorderly and scattered personnel quickly turned into organized and disciplined teams, and the teams were also gathering quickly to form large teams that rushed towards the portal.
Judicial Island is divided into the front island, the main island, the Tower of Justice, and the Bridge of Hesitation.
Among them, Maejima is the location of the first gateway. After passing through the gateway, you can land on Maejima. At this time, the sea train has not yet been officially opened in front of the port of Maejima. There is only a hastily built platform here, and the sea train track has not yet been extended here.
There is a navy stationed on the front island all year round. The daily duties of these people are to open and close the gates and monitor the situation at sea.
The main island and the front island are connected by a suspension bridge. Directly below the main island lies a bottomless ocean black hole, with the surrounding water rushing towards it. No one knows how this ocean black hole was formed. With such a natural barrier, the only way to reach the main island is to cross the front island's defenses.
The main island is home to most of the Judicial Island staff. It's mostly residential, with public facilities like a cafeteria. The only functioning building is the Courthouse.
Criminals sent to the Island of Justice will be escorted to the court and sent away after the judge makes a ruling.
At the rear of the main island, after crossing a long bridge, you'll reach the Tower of Justice. The Tower of Justice boasts a complex structure, serving as the office space for high-ranking officials of the World Government, CP9, and other elites. Confidential meetings are often held in the Tower of Justice's meeting hall.
In the Tower of Justice, there is a special secret door connecting to the underwater tunnel. After passing through the underwater tunnel, you can reach the Bridge of Hesitation. As its name suggests, the prisoners who come here will have the last part of their "life" before being punished.
The Bridge of Hesitation is the last building on Judicial Island. At the end of the Bridge of Hesitation is a small port where warships are docked all year round to escort prisoners.
At the very end of the Bridge of Hesitation is the Gate of Justice, a legendary symbol of the absolute authority of the World Government.
The Gate of Justice is extremely large and towering into the clouds. Only a small gap needs to be opened to influence the ocean currents and allow escort ships to pass through.
Leaving the Gate of Justice, you will only go to two places. One is the headquarters of the navy, and the other is the underwater prison, Impel Down.
The entire Judicial Island is heavily fortified, with several key areas often connected by only a single road, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Navy and the Communist Party have deployed a large number of garrisons on the island, and the voyage to the Navy Headquarters or Impel Down is very short.
It can be said that Judicial Island is completely under the nose of the Naval Headquarters.
No matter who you are, if you want to cause trouble on Judicial Island, you have to consider whether you are qualified.
It was luck and fate that allowed Luffy to rescue Nico Robin from Judicial Island.
Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's Aurora warship slowly approached the port of the main island. At this time, the port dock was already crowded with navy and CP intelligence officers.
Seeing the giant ship Dawn slowly approaching, at this moment, both the navy and the CP were shocked and looked at the warship entering the port in some astonishment.
"This is the ship. This is the ship."
A square-faced lieutenant colonel from the Navy headquarters looked at the familiar warship and opened his mouth, speechless. Many of the originally aggressive navy officers also recognized the warship and fell silent.
Someone in the CP also recognized Tsugikuni Yoriichi's ship and, startled, quickly recovered, pulling out their Den Den Mushi and anxiously reporting to their superiors. The navy also reacted, with some officers ordering their subordinates not to act rashly while quickly communicating.
As Tsugikuni Yoriichi's ship docked, the sounds of Den Den Mushi at the liaison office of the Naval Headquarters suddenly began to rise one after another. In the Tower of Justice, located in the core area of Judicial Island, the Den Den Mushi in the offices of World Government officials at all levels also began to ring.
Judicial Island
"It seems that there is nothing special about it."
"Borsalino, why did you say that to me?"
"That guy shouldn't be aimless."
"You deliberately said something like that. It shouldn't be something that has nothing to do with me."
On the deck of the warship Dawn, Tsugumi Yoshiichi walked to the side of the ship, his hands drooping beside the railing, looking at the scene inside the Judicial Island, with no intention of getting off the ship. His observation Haki had already covered all areas of the Judicial Island, carefully exploring the breath of everyone on the island.
Strange and weak, Tsugikuni Yoshiichi had no idea what was on this island that would make Borsalino risk his life to remind him.
"Am I being too sensitive?"
Ji Guoyuan frowned slightly, thinking this, and then shook his head, dismissing the idea. Borsalino wasn't one to talk nonsense. Although he always said "so scary," it was just a catchphrase.
What Borsalino said on Egg Point Island must have a hidden meaning, but Yunyi still doesn't understand what Borsalino wants to remind him.
"That soldier."
"Yes, I mean you."
"I have a question for you, and I hope you can answer me truthfully."
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi lowered his head and looked towards the shore. After a brief search among the crowd, he pointed to a square-faced navy man wearing a cloak of justice and with epaulettes of gold tassels on a blue background, and spoke loudly.
As soon as Ji Guoyuan's clear voice was heard, the platform, which was originally filled with various conversations, suddenly became quiet.
The square-faced navy officer who was pointed at by Ji Guoyuanyi subconsciously pointed at his nose, then quickly turned his head and looked at his subordinates around him. Seeing that his subordinates were standing behind him at this time, he couldn't help but twitching his eyes.
"Don't look at others, I'm talking about you."
"May I have your name?"
The square-faced navy officer pointed at by Tsugakugo Yoshiichi didn't know why, but after looking up and seeing Tsugakugo Yoshiichi's face clearly, his expression immediately became serious, his body straightened, and he saluted and reported respectfully:
"Report! My name is Winter, Lieutenant Commander of the Navy Headquarters."
After respectfully reporting, Lieutenant Colonel Winter suddenly came to his senses and noticed that everyone around him was looking at him with strange eyes. His face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly drew the sword at his waist and said angrily:
"Tsugikoku Yoriichi!"
"You, a traitor to the navy and a wanted criminal of the World Government, what is your purpose in appearing here?!"
"Leave here quickly! Headquarters has sent reinforcements to Judicial Island!"
"Once the reinforcements arrive, even you won't be able to leave Judicial Island!"
Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Winter's angry question, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi just smiled and nodded slightly, not caring at all. He asked to himself, "Okay, Lieutenant Colonel Winter, answer me a question and I'll leave."
"Has anything strange happened on Judicial Island in recent months?"
"Have any extremely serious criminals been brought to Judicial Island for trial in recent months?"
The essential function of the Judicial Island is to try criminals. What Borsalino wants to remind himself of should not be a trivial matter.
Tsugikuni Yoshiichi thought about his new navy, his life and energy during this period, and found that if there were any people or things that were related to Judicial Island, there would probably be only one thing!
The disappearance of Scarlett and her daughter is probably the biggest incident that has happened in the new navy in recent times.
The lives of the new navy members are simple and pure. They are either building branches or going out to sea to chase pirates. Tsugikuni Yoriichi has never heard of any strange things happening in his branch.
Thinking of this, Ji Guoyuan had some guesses in his mind.
The one who could kill the colonel-level officer silently in the Navy branch of Dressrosa and take away Scarlett and her daughter must be the World Government.
Considering the time when Scarlett and her daughter disappeared and Doflamingo's hidden identity as a "former Celestial Dragon", it is normal for Yoshikazu Tsugakuni to have such speculation.
"Report! No!"
Hearing Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's question, Lieutenant Colonel Winter, who had been questioning with anger just a second ago, stepped forward and gave a straightforward answer. After answering, Lieutenant Colonel Winter's eyes twitched slightly, and he felt embarrassed.
"No?"
Yuichiro Tsuchikuni frowned slightly. From Winter's expression, he could tell that the other party was not lying.
Just when Jiguo Yuanyi was about to ask someone else, he saw a young navy man quickly walk up to Winter and whispered:
"Lieutenant Colonel Winter, yes."
"You were reporting to headquarters during that time, so I don't know. A while ago, a CP0 came to the island. Although we didn't see what prisoners they escorted, I think they were escorted by CP0."
Without waiting for his subordinate to finish speaking, Winter only listened to half of the words. His expression changed drastically and he shouted angrily: "Shut up!"
After stopping his subordinates, Winter looked at Yuichiro Tsugakuni cautiously, but saw that Yuichiro Tsugakuni had already disappeared at the bow of the ship.
"Um?"
Surprised, Winter turned his head and searched for the figure of Yuichiro Tsugakuin, and at this moment, Yuichiro Tsugakuin's voice came from behind him.
"The information you just mentioned is very valuable."
"Well, do you know where that CP0 and the prisoners brought here are?"
When Commander Winter heard the voice, he turned his head stiffly and found that the figure that disappeared at the bow had appeared behind him.
Ji Guoyuan put his hand on the shoulder of his subordinate who had just reported and asked softly.
The young navy officer, whose shoulders were held by Tsugikoku Yoshiichi, swallowed subconsciously and said with some difficulty:
“No, I don’t know.”
"It's been a while."
"I think they should be sent to Impel Down."
The young sailor just speculated according to common logic. When Ji Guoyuan heard this, he nodded slightly, and then his figure flashed and returned to the ship.
"Go around to the back of Judicial Island, through the Gate of Justice, and head to Impel Down."
Ji Guoyuan acted decisively and gave the order directly.
Yixiao, who was standing behind Tsugakuko Yoshiichi, heard this and raised his cane, whipped out his sword, unleashing his Devil Fruit. Under the power of Yixiao's Devil Fruit, the massive warship instantly broke free from the sea and rose into the air.
Then, under the astonished gazes of the people on the front island, it flew straight towards the Gate of Justice at a rapid speed. The warship flew at an extremely high speed. In just a few minutes, the huge ship flew over the ocean black hole, then rose rapidly, and after crossing the Gate of Justice, the warship slowly descended.
After re-entering the sea, the navigator on the ship simply identified the direction, and then rode the ocean current and began to head towards the city of Impel Down.
Most of the new navy brought by Jikuni Yuichi this time were from the headquarters. They had a clear grasp of the routes and the records on the ship were also very complete.
Impel Down City is located in a doldrums, a place that could trap an ordinary ship, but Tsugakuni Yoriichi's ship is a warship itself and has the ability to cross the doldrums.
Tsugumi Yoshiichi came and went quickly. After Tsugumi Yoshiichi left, the Navy and CP reported to their superiors one after another.
Sengoku of the Naval Headquarters was also shocked when he learned that Yoriichi Tsugakuni was going to Impel Down. After a brief thought, he figured out some of the connections.
He knew that CP0 had probably already moved with the hostages, and the navy's nonsense might have accidentally helped Tsugikuni Yoshiichi find the right direction.
After a little thought, Zhan Guo quickly called the Push City.
"Has Stussy from CP0 arrived in Impel Down?"
After the call was connected, Magellan, the current director of Push City, reported the news to Zhan Guo.
Hearing this, Zhan Guo couldn't help but hold his forehead with an expression of "as expected", and then after calming down, he said:
"Director Magellan, the wanted criminal of the World Government, former Admiral Tsugumi Yoshitsuguchi, is coming to your side."
"His target should be the two 'criminals' in CP0's hands."
"If a battle breaks out, Director Magellan, your first priority is to ensure your own safety and the safety of Impel Down."
"If Tsugikoku Yoshiichi wants it, just give it to them."
"Those two criminals aren't as important as you and Impel Down, you know?"
Hearing Zhan Guo's words, Director Magellan was deeply moved and immediately said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone. When Zhan Guo heard what Magellan said, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Standing up and walking to the windowsill, Zhan Guo couldn't help but complain in a low voice:
"That bastard, why does he always cause trouble for me?!"
On the other side, after Magellan, the director of Impel Down City, put down the phone, he looked at Stussy, who was sitting in his office drinking tea, and said in a deep voice:
"According to the regulations, the two people you brought cannot be detained at Level 6."
"But don't worry, since they are criminals and have come to Impel Down, I will never allow anyone to take them away from me."
"I will definitely not let Marshal Zhan Guo down!"
Stussy didn't comment on this and continued drinking her tea with a nonchalant look on her face.
“Gu——”
At this moment, Magellan's stomach rumbled. He quickly stood up, apologized, and rushed to the security guard in the office.
Seeing Magellan leave, Stussy slowly stood up, walked to the desk, took out a piece of paper from her arms, then gently opened the drawer of Magellan's desk, took out a seal and knocked it on the paper.
After collecting the paper, Stussy smiled sweetly towards the internal security department and left the office leisurely.
Impel Down, lv6, Infinite Hell.
“Da da.”
There were bursts of light noises in the dim prison.
Stussy's high heels stepped on the white stone floor, and she quickly examined the vicious criminals in the cages with a faint smile on her face.
"Are you Stussy from the Rocks Pirates?!"
