This would shatter his undefeated myth of no one escaping from prison for eight hundred years.
But not anymore...
Because Shiki had already been killed by him about two years ago. Along with Shiki's Flying Pirates, they had long since become ghosts on the seas, a rather legendary page in the history books of the Great Pirate Era…
"Commander-in-Chief Char! I am Magellan, the warden of Impel Down!"
Before Char could even step into the prison, Magellan, the warden whom Char had promoted six months earlier, was already waiting outside. Upon seeing Char, his face was full of smiles.
He had been told that he was promoted because of Xia's appreciation of him.
"Just do your job well..."
Upon hearing this, Char nodded slightly to Magellan and, as he passed Magellan, whispered a few words of advice behind his back.
Immediately afterwards, surrounded by a group of CP0 agents, Char walked towards the prison...
"Did you hear that? Commander-in-Chief Char nodded at me?"
After Char left, Magellan belatedly realized what was happening and proudly addressed his subordinates.
"Warden, let me remind you..."
"Your idol, Commander-in-Chief Char, has already headed to prison ahead of schedule!"
"Are you really not going to accompany them?"
At this moment, Magellan's secretary couldn't help but offer a reminder.
"Oh! Yes, yes, yes..."
"I have to get there quickly; I can't let Commander-in-Chief Xia go down alone."
After being reminded, Magellan realized that Char had already gone down, and he quickly chased after the direction in which Char and the others had left.
After Magellan caught up with Char, he immediately became Char's bodyguard and attendant, constantly guiding Char and saying, "Commander-in-Chief Char, this way please. We'll take the private elevator down! To welcome your arrival, the entire prison was disinfected with boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius for over thirty minutes to ensure there are no viruses..."
Just then, Magellan saw dozens of soldiers filling body bags with corpses. He felt a pang of shame and looked at Char somewhat embarrassedly, saying, "I apologize, Commander-in-Chief Char! Those body bags contain criminals who couldn't survive the first round of disinfection. There are just too many of them, so we haven't been able to process them all yet. I apologize for the mess..."
"It's okay, let's hurry up!"
Char glanced at the body bags but didn't blame Magellan. He simply gestured for Magellan to lead the way quickly.
"Um! This way please..."
Upon hearing this, Magellan immediately walked in front of Char.
Before long, everyone finally got on the elevator.
A few minutes later, amidst the 'click-clack' sound of the gears turning.
The group finally arrived at the sixth level of Impel Down, known as the Infinite Hell.
"Is it that Magellan guy?"
"There seems to be something following him?"
"Heh, those annoying CP0s!"
With Magellan's arrival, a series of disturbances seemed to have broken out throughout the prison.
In the darkness, pairs of eyes, like those of hungry wolves and ferocious beasts, glowing with an eerie green light, kept peering at Xia and the group of CP members around him, dressed in white suits and wearing masks.
These guys imprisoned on the sixth floor are monsters who once ventured into the New World but failed in the process!
"Barrett is being held here..."
Char and the others ignored the villains imprisoned on this floor and went straight to the solitary cell where Barrett was being held.
What immediately came into the view of Char and the rest of CP0 was not the muscular, devilish heir Douglas Barrett they remembered...
Instead, he was a thin, bony skeleton, like a bamboo pole. This bamboo pole was completely unaware of Xia and the others' arrival. He just kept muttering, "Give me food! Give me food quickly, I'm starving! My muscles are falling off, those are my muscles! The muscles I worked so hard to build! I've lost my strength..."
"Is this a Barrett?"
Before Xia could speak, Stussy behind him couldn't help but look at Magellan, pointing to the bamboo pole in the cell and asking a question.
"Exactly..."
Magellan nodded immediately upon hearing Stussy's question.
Then, Magellan added, "Well, didn't you specifically instruct us not to give Barrett too much food? Just enough to keep him alive in prison was enough, right? So, in the year since Barrett entered the prison, we've only fed him the water and some liquid food that a human body needs! This is to ensure his most basic vital signs every day, and we haven't given him any other food..."
"Forehead……"
Well, that was indeed the order she gave according to Char's wishes.
"Open the prison gates!"
Just then, Char ordered Magellan to open the door to the cell where Barrett was being held.
"This one……"
Upon hearing this, Magellan paused for a moment, looking somewhat hesitant.
"Don't worry! He's already like this, he won't pose any threat to me."
Char nodded to Magellan, indicating that he could proceed with the task without worry.
"it is good."
After hesitating for a moment, Magellan followed Char's orders and used the key to open the door to the solitary cell where Barrett was being held.
"Crackling crackling..."
The sound of the cell door being pushed open seemed to attract Barrett's attention. He struggled to lift his head, looking in the direction of Xia and the others, and muttered under his breath, "Give me food! Hurry up and give me some edible food!"
"Barrett, how was your year in prison?"
Char ignored Barrett's words and looked at the limp Barrett, asking a question he already knew the answer to.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Barrett remained silent.
"Do you want to get out of here and regain your freedom...?"
Seeing that Barrett was silent, Xia asked Barrett in a slightly hoarse and magnetic voice, full of allure.
"condition!"
Barrett finally couldn't hold on any longer, and he looked at Char and asked.
"Work for me! And I'll let you out..."
Char Aznable stated frankly.
"Ha! You want me to do things for you? That's ridiculous!"
"I, Barrett, only work for those who can defeat me..."
Barrett glared at Char and said coldly.
"Heh? You want me to defeat you? Barrett, you should really look up in the mirror and take a good look at yourself. Do you really think you're still the devil's heir you were a year ago? Right now, you're as weak as a stray dog on the street, like a homeless, stray dog. Anyone here could easily defeat you..."
Char couldn't help but sneer after hearing Barrett's words.
Yes, Char deliberately installed a mirror in Barrett's cell to annoy him. Whenever Barrett looks up, he can see clearly how he is becoming weaker day by day in this prison...
"I……"
Barrett fell silent; he knew Char was telling the truth.
Regardless of the actual strength of the CP0 agents behind Char, just Char himself, as their leader, exuded an overwhelming sense of oppression...
Char's unintentional release of that powerful aura...
Barrett had only ever felt the same kind of pressure from Roger, the captain of Roger's crew, and the few crew members on Roger's ship!
Without a doubt, this is the aura of a strong person...
Even in his prime, he might not be able to beat Char!
What's more, now that we're so weak?
"Give me a meal first! A full meal, otherwise forget it..."
Barrett hesitated for a long time before stating his terms.
No matter how lofty Barrett's ideals were when he entered the Bitter Cave for further studies.
Barrett, who has been starving for almost a year, just wants to have a good meal right now.
As for what to say after we've eaten our fill...
Barrett was careful; he didn't tell Xia that he needed to eat first!
"Arrange a good one for him..."
"Prepare whatever he wants to eat."
"As for the portion sizes!"
"Until he can't eat anymore..."
Char gave a soft command to the Stussy and CP0 members behind him.
Char naturally understood Barrett's little scheme, finding it utterly ridiculous and too lazy to play along. Because in the face of absolute power, there was no need for such tactics…
