Push forward to the city gate.
A warship slowly sailed in front of the open Gate of Justice.
On the boat, Flying Squirrel was escorting Ace, whose hands were handcuffed with seastone handcuffs. He glanced at Vivian, who was standing at the port waiting, and for a moment his expression revealed a hint of guilt.
"Vivian, long time no see," he said.
"It's been quite a long time, just over a week?" Vivian replied.
"Forehead.."
The flying squirrel scratched his head and said, "I was a little reckless when I sent you out to chase the Straw Hat Pirates last time. However, the treatment for working in Impel Down is actually not bad. At least you don't have to go out to sea for patrol, and your safety will be guaranteed to a greater extent."
"So, I have to thank you, Major General Lieutenant Flying Squirrel?" Vivian said with a smile.
Flying squirrel: “…”
Seeing that Vivian seemed to have a problem with him, the flying squirrel did not want to make trouble, but turned to look at Magellan and said: "This man is Boscas D. Ace. I will hand him over to you now. Remember, the higher-ups have issued a death order. Even if you lose your life, you must not let him get away."
"Don't worry, Major General Flying Squirrel, this is Push City, how could any criminal escape?" Hannibal said from the side.
The history of Impel Down is at least a hundred years old, and over the years, except for the man called Golden Lion, no pirate has ever been let go.
Even the golden lion had to pay a heavy price by losing its legs before it was able to regain its freedom.
"That's best."
The flying squirrel nodded, and continued, "In addition, the World Government has also issued an order for you to torture him to extract any valuable information. Because... in about a month, this guy will be publicly executed on Marinford."
"At the Navy Headquarters?" Magellan seemed a little surprised.
"That's right."
Flying Squirrel bluntly revealed the shocking secret that CP0 had just discovered not long ago: "Because Ace is the biological son of former Pirate King Roger. We need to use a public execution to deter pirates around the world."
Of course, what he didn't say was that deterrence was one aspect, and using Ace to lure out the Whitebeard Pirates and thus capture them all in one fell swoop was the ultimate goal of the Navy's execution.
"What?"
"The son of former Pirate King Roger?!"
As expected, after hearing the news, apart from Vivian, even Fujitora couldn't help but be shocked.
"It turns out Roger has a son..."
"Not only has he grown up, but he has also become the captain of the squad on Whitebeard's pirate ship?"
Hannibal and little Sadie discussed quietly.
Ace, who heard the conversation, spat on the ground with disdain.
The Pirate King's son
Since he was a child, what he hated most was his identity.
Especially after joining the Whitebeard Pirates, he became even more disgusted with the name Roger.
"I have only one father, and that's Whitebeard, Edward Newgate!" Ace roared angrily at the Flying Squirrel, Magellan and others.
Vivian: “…”
You are really a filial son, Ace.
But to be honest, after reading the original novel, he really doesn't think Roger can be considered a qualified father.
"Stop talking nonsense."
After taking Ace off the deck, the flying squirrel handed the chain in his hand to Magellan and said, "Lock him up on the sixth floor and send more troops to guard him. In a month, the navy will send someone to pick him up and take him to Marinford."
"clear!"
...
Every morning he would get up, wash up, and follow the more than one hundred prison guards from the Impel Downs to exercise on the first floor above the sea, then go to the fourth floor of the Burning Hell underground to have lunch. In the afternoon he would hand over the guarding work he was supposed to do to Domino, play mahjong with Fujitora and others, and after dinner he would return to the dormitory and lie on the bed to watch anime and movies all night.
It seems that life is quite fulfilling.
But since Ace was imprisoned in Impel Down, Vivian has had an additional task every night, which is to deliver meals to this guy and spend two hours helping to torture Ace for any valuable information.
It was Magellan who suggested that he help, saying that since Vivian was assigned from the headquarters, he should have learned a lot of torture techniques.
However, Vivian responded that he had been at the headquarters for less than two months and hadn't even started learning the Six Styles and Haki, let alone interrogation techniques
What the hell is this torture
"Hey, it's time for dinner, Boscas."
Vivian placed the fried rice made in the kitchen on the ground in front of Ace, who then bent down skillfully and began to eat with big mouthfuls using only his mouth.
It's true that Ace is a very carefree guy. During the few days he was imprisoned in Impel Down, he ate and drank well almost every day and didn't feel depressed at all. It was as if he was not a death row prisoner but more like a person on vacation.
"Is it tasty?"
"It's OK."
With rice grains all over his face, Ace replied expressionlessly.
"I know your brother Luffy."
Vivian then suddenly said this, causing Ace to pause in his eating.
"Well, I don't really dislike the Straw Hat Pirates. Of course, the same goes for the Whitebeard Pirates."
"Don't try to get close to me. If you want to get information about my father from me, I think you'd better not waste your energy." Ace said.
Vivian: “…”
"It seems that compared to your brother Luffy, you are relatively smart."
"Ah, my brother really doesn't have much brains." Ace nodded in agreement.
Vivian: “…”
Isn't it too thoughtless to agree with it
After hearing this, Luffy expressed that he wanted to hit someone.
While Vivian was organizing her words and trying to find a topic to kill the two hours of interrogation, Ace suddenly raised his head and said, "Hey, it's too troublesome for me to eat like this. Please let me down from the wall. I'm wearing seastone handcuffs and leg irons anyway, so I can't run away."
The words fell, before Vivian could answer.
The next moment.
Option 1: Go forward to help Ace untie the chains and lower him down from the wall. (Completion reward: Random skill experience value max)
Option 2: Ignore Ace's request. (Completion reward: random basic attribute +1)
"Forehead.."
According to this option..
If I let him down to eat, he will definitely find a way to knock me out, right
Vivian guessed.
However, since the reward is just random skill experience points, it probably shouldn't be too dangerous.
Thinking about it in his mind, Vivian walked forward and took off the chain connecting Ace's wrist to the wall.
Who knew it would happen in the next second.
Card!
Sure enough, Ace immediately swung the chain forward and tightly strangled Vivian's neck.
