The Strongest Lunarian in One Piece

'Rumble...'

The massive elevator came to a halt on the fourth level, the Blazing Hell.

Adrian, the deputy warden, raised an eyebrow, sensing an unsettling stillness.

The silence was unusual. Normally, the cries and screams of prisoners under torture filled the depths of Impel Down, creating an atmosphere akin to hell itself.

But now, apart from faint background noise, there were no screams at all.

As the elevator doors opened, the scene before him confirmed his suspicions.

"What… how is this possible?!"

Adrian's pupils dilated, his jaw dropped in shock, and his face paled as disbelief washed over him.

Before him stood neither prison guards nor inmates. Instead, the space was filled with a mass of winged, jet-black metallic figures gleaming under the dim light—'angels' in form, but twisted and dark like fallen angels from myth.

Thousands of them stood in formation, their sheer numbers overwhelming and suffocating.

"Surprised?"

A tall and imposing figure stepped forward—none other than El, radiating a fiery aura of authority.

Behind him were Gerd, the Jace and Gace brothers, Uthan, Moss, and others, all exuding confidence as they stared at the deputy warden with predatory grins.

"You… this…"

Adrian's face was drenched in cold sweat as his gaze darted between El and the terrifying army. He stammered in anger and shock:

"You're the Fallen Angel… El? What are you doing here? Where is Warden Ian and the rest of the staff?!"

The truth slowly dawned on him, dread creeping in as he realized what had happened.

The infamous Impel Down, hailed for centuries as an impenetrable fortress, had been infiltrated—no, conquered—without the outside world or even the Navy noticing.

Not even the warships stationed outside had caught wind of it.

"You've already figured it out, haven't you?"

El's piercing gaze bore into Adrian's soul as he smiled faintly, his words cutting like a blade.

"Damn you—!"

Adrian roared in fury, his blood boiling.

With a thunderous step, his massive, three-meter frame vanished in a blur of motion as he charged at El.

His iron-hard fist, gleaming black and blue, radiated immense power as he hurled a devastating punch.

"Hardened Justice Fist!"

But before Adrian's attack could connect, El, as if predicting his every move, met it head-on.

His colossal fist, wrapped in black and red lightning from his Conqueror's Haki, tore through the air as it collided with Adrian's.

'BANG!'

The two fists clashed like colliding meteors, unleashing a shockwave that tore through the area.

Adrian's face twisted in shock as his arm went numb, trembling violently under the force.

"Damn it…!"

Overwhelmed, Adrian's body was sent flying like a cannonball, slamming through the elevator's metal structure.

'BOOM!'

The massive elevator shattered, and Adrian's battered form embedded itself into the wall.

El, his expression cold and merciless, unfolded his dark wings.

In an instant, his blazing aura vanished, and his figure seemed to dissolve into the shadows.

Appearing like a phantom, he reemerged in the elevator shaft, his massive fist—shrouded in an intense Conqueror's Haki—hurtling down mercilessly at Adrian.

'BOOM!'

"AHHHHH!"

'RUMBLE!'

The massive explosion reverberated through Impel Down, causing the entire underwater prison to shake violently.

Cracks spread across the walls, deep and jagged, threatening to tear the structure apart entirely.

"Hiss—"

"Tsk! So this is the power of El-sama?"

"One of the Hell's Guards, the future warden of Impel Down, was crushed so easily!"

"Completely outclassed—it was like watching a child fight an adult…"

"As expected of El-sama!!!"

The newly created 'Homies' of the angelic army and a handful of recruits chosen from Impel Down's vast pool of prisoners stood awestruck.

Their eyes widened, and they gasped in disbelief as they looked upon El's towering, commanding figure.

Reverence, awe, and unrestrained admiration shone in their gazes.

"Hey, El! Calm down!"

Moss and the others, noticing the widening cracks in the walls, called out in alarm:

"Don't forget, we're underwater here!"

They had no doubts about El's strength.

If he wanted, he could reduce Impel Down to rubble in an instant.

"The deputy warden is a Hard-Hard Fruit user, after all. His defense is top-notch—I had to use a bit of force."

Retracting his fist, El nonchalantly tossed Adrian's bloodied, unconscious body like a ragdoll to Gerd.

"Don't worry, I held back. I won't destroy the prison."

He had no intention of completely obliterating Impel Down.

Even though it had been breached, the World Government might not abandon it. He could always return to harvest its resources again.

"Heh, three more premium souls for the taking!"

Gerd grinned, clearly satisfied.

Not only Adrian, but also 'Blood Prison Ian', the former warden, and 'Sharktooth Buck', the chief jailer, had all had their souls mercilessly extracted by her.

'Crunch… crunch…'

Nearby, Ryan's unsettling laughter echoed.

The scientist opened his massive, grotesque mouth, swallowing the lifeless bodies whole to recover their Devil Fruit abilities.

"Now, let's finish off the Navy outside and leave."

El's eyes narrowed coldly as he issued the next order.

"I just received word from Streusen—several key islands under the Hell Trading Company have been exposed and discovered by the World Government."

"I've heard that G-12 Fortress has already dispatched a fleet to attack. Although Hajrudin and his forces are holding them off, we can't afford any further delays."

Murderous intent flared in El's tone as he paused.

"Those islands are the core of our future 'Totto Land Kingdom'. We cannot let them fall!"

"It's inevitable," muttered Sally, the Shapeshifting Witch, with a resigned sigh.

"The CP intelligence networks, developed over hundreds of years, have eyes and ears everywhere. They've infiltrated every corner of the sea…"

"Even though we were cautious at first, once they began mobilizing their resources, it became nearly impossible to avoid detection."

"It doesn't matter," El said dismissively, waving off her concerns.

"Let them discover what they want. There's nothing to worry about anymore."

His gaze turned to Barry.

"Open the Mirror World portal to the surface. Let's deal with those outside swiftly—we're not here to waste time on the Navy."

At this point, only the intervention of the Five Elders could stop them.

The Fallen Angel pirates had grown far beyond a mere band of rogues.

"Heehee, leave those pests to me!" Gerd said confidently, standing tall.

Once they dealt with the naval forces outside, they would slip into the Mirror World and reunite with Linlin's group to return to the New World.

It was time to officially launch the long-prepared 'Totto Land Plan'.

"Understood!"
