Chapter 424: Advance City
The Submarine Prison Advance City, Impelton, together with the Navy Headquarters and the Judicial Island, is distributed in a triangular shape at three points of a huge whirlpool, and is known as the three major institutions of the world's political axe on the great route.

Edward didn't expect that he would visit these three places one after another, and after coming to this world-famous undersea prison, he did not panic, but looked around with some curiosity.
Due to the arrival of the naval hero Karp, Magellan, the warden of Advance City, personally came to the entrance of the first floor of the sea to greet him.
"Welcome, Lord Karp. "Magellan was a strange man of great stature, dressed in a black prison warden's uniform, with a menacing face, a dragon's horn-like hairstyle, and a pair of black bat wings on his back. In the face of the heroes of the Navy, the warden showed enough respect and led a group of subordinates to salute Karp.
"Well, don't be so formal, Magellan. Karp touched his head, then turned to Edward and said, "Now that I've sent you here, I hope you can stick here, boy with character." ”
"Take me to see Ace. ”
Magellan nodded and led Karp into Advance City.
"You're the new criminal, Edward Lee?" A man with a devil's face and a pharaoh's hat signed the navy's escort slip and glanced at Edward Road, "I'm Hannibal ...... deputy warden."
"Hold on?" Edward interrupted, completely unnervous.
"Yes, for the time being, one day I'll kick that bastard Magellan out of his position as warden......" Hannibal replied subconsciously, and after a while he came to his senses and roared, "why should I say such revealing things to a criminal like you? ”
The corners of Edward's mouth curled, and he was escorted into Advance City by a large group of jailers wearing gas masks.
As soon as he entered, Edward felt a very oppressive atmosphere, the air was thick with the smell of blood, and his excellent hearing allowed him to faintly hear screams, crying, and frantic roars coming from below.
Edward soon learned what "disinfection" was.
Covered in blood, Edward was stripped naked and trousers, and wheeled into a boiling cauldron with only the shackles of the sea building. The boiling water burst like flames and scorched the wounds all over his body, burning his skin, causing Edward, who had never experienced it before, to frown.
It's just a frown. Compared to the wounds he suffered on the battlefield as a child, the burning of this boiling water was completely within Edward's tolerance, and it had no effect on his steel-hardened body.
"Worthy of a figure who can defeat a vice admiral. Hannibal stood beside the boiling water cauldron and clapped his hands, "This is the 'baptism' that all prisoners who have just entered the prison must receive, according to the reaction of the prisoners, you will be assigned to different levels of the undersea prison, and according to your reaction, you can be sent to the fifth floor of the extremely cold hell." ”
"What layer is Fire Fist Ace on?" asked Edward calmly as his body slowly adjusted to the temperature of the boiling water.
"Six floors...... Why should I answer a prisoner's question!" Hannibal said Edward again, "that you can speak clearly and without trembling in this situation, and that you are more dangerous than I expected, so you should be imprisoned on the sixth floor." ”
"Thank you then, it's best to keep me in the same cell as Ace. Edward laughed.
"Okay...... Why should I accede to the request of a prisoner like you!" Hannibal roared, "You're still laughing! You brought it on yourself, jailer, pick him up and send him to the sixth floor!"
After being fished out of the boiling iron pot, Edward put on a black and white striped prisoner's suit, and was escorted by Hannibal and a group of jailers to the sixth floor, the lowest level of the undersea prison.
There was no hustle and bustle on the sixth floor of the prison as Edward had imagined, and all the prisoners here seemed to have resigned themselves to their fate, sitting quietly in the cage with a look of despair, and only when they were beaten by the jailers here would they let out a muffled snort.
"Welcome to Infinite Hell!" Hannibal said proudly, "this is the lowest level of the Undersea Prison Advance City, where all the most vicious people are imprisoned, and they ......"
"That's the one I live in. Edward didn't listen to Hannibal's nonsense, for he saw Karp sitting alone on the floor in front of a cell, looking at the figure inside with a heavy face. You don't have to think about it to know that the person who is being held there must be Ace.
"This is a prison! not a hotel!" Hannibal roared loudly, but suddenly felt a glare from Karp, and immediately fell silent, "Ah, I'm sorry, Lord Karp, I'm interrupting your conversation, you old guy hasn't left yet......"
As soon as Hannibal finished speaking, he immediately realized that he had spoken his heart again, and quickly covered his mouth.
"Lock this kid up here. Karp was not angry, he stood up, took one last look at his grandson, and left the place with his head down and a calm face.
Hannibal nodded repeatedly.
"Boy, I want you to accompany Ace through the last leg of his life. As he passed Edward, Karp said a little lonely, "If you do well, I will intercede with Sengoku and exempt you from the death penalty." ”
Edward nodded, watching the Navy veteran walk towards the elevator door.
"Now that Lord Karp has spoken, I'll keep you and Fire Fist Ace in lock!" Hannibal said, ordering the jailer to push Edward into his cell and lock him in heavy shackles.
"We're meeting again, Ace. Edward, who was locked up, didn't feel desperate, he smiled and looked at Ace, who was still scarred, "What did you say to your grandfather?"
Ace twisted his head towards Edward weakly, did not answer his question, and sighed, "I didn't expect you to be sent to the sixth floor, and we don't have the slightest chance of escaping here." ”
"There are no absolutes, Ace. Edward remained calm, "No matter what desperate situation we face, we must not give up hope, so that we can seize any small opportunity at the last moment." ”
"Hahaha...... Cough...... Ahem......" Ace looked at the serious Edward, and suddenly coughed up blood while laughing hard, "Edward, it's really my honor to meet you. Ever since I met you, I've often wondered if you were sent from heaven to save me?"
"I'm just encouraging you from the perspective of a friend. Edward didn't smile, but said seriously, "Ace, think about the people who are about to fight for you. You can't dissuade them, and you can't bear to watch them die for you, what you can do now is to seize every opportunity to improve your abilities! ”
"Fire Fist Ace, now your life is not entirely your own, self-depravity and despair are your worst enemies now, summon up your courage and fight for survival with me. ”
"I see!" Ace looked at Edward for a long time before he smiled confidently again, nodded seriously, and said, "I won't give up." ”
"That's right!" said Edward.
"But what am I going to do?, Mr. Edward, the motivator?" asked Ace.
With a bang, Edward's head hit the huge chain, prompting Ace's painful but hearty laughter.
