Impel Down, the world's first prison.
Located in the Calm Belt in the first half of the Grand Line, the security is extremely tight.
There are some serious criminals imprisoned in the prison. It is very gloomy and terrifying. There are various monsters and Den Den Mushi monitoring.
Impel Down is a huge tower-like structure submerged in the sea, and its foundation is on the seabed. Because Impel Down is built in the Calm Belt, the entire Impel Down is surrounded by huge Sea Kings, and the prison is guarded by a Navy Battleship.
In the dark area of the prison, there are various cells and torture rooms for prisoners. These cells are made of Seastone to prevent prisoners with Devil Fruit abilities from escaping.
In addition, there are a large number of large Sea Kings on the seabed outside the prison, so Impel Down has the name of "Iron Bastion".
From the establishment of Impel Down to the present, as long as a prisoner enters here, no one can escape.
For this reason, it is called the world's first prison.
So far, many people don't understand why the Navy didn't kill the pirates they caught, but wasted countless manpower and financial resources to build such a huge fortress.
In fact, the role of Impel Down is unique and necessary.
The first purpose is to deter. As the name suggests, it is to catch some famous big pirates and lock them up forever. This punishment is more terrible than killing them.
Sometimes death is not terrible. What is terrible is the torture without any hope. From the moment you step in here, you will be isolated from the world and accompanied by loneliness and despair. What's more, the torture in Impel Down is unimaginable.
Even some famous pirates are imprisoned here without any hope. For other pirates, it is the sun in the night, warning them of the fate of being caught and swearing the majesty of the World Government and the Navy!
There is also a containment. The criminals in Impel Down must have Devil Fruit abilities, such as some powerful abilities. If the Navy catches the ability and executes them directly, then the Devil Fruit will be reborn elsewhere, and it will still be obtained by some people in the sea.
In this way, it is equivalent to a wildfire growing again. As long as the time is up, new enemies will appear and there will be no end to it.
As long as the ability is imprisoned here, it can be very good to curb the regeneration of Devil Fruit, so there will be less ability on the sea. It may not be effective in a short time, but it is absolutely feasible in the long run.
There is another important purpose, that is, research. Every criminal who can enter Impel Down is a good research material. Instead of killing them directly, it is better to use the waste for science.
After all, this type of criminal has a tenacious vitality. As long as there is a little research result, it will be considerable for the world government.
On the surface, there were six floors in Impel Down, and each floor had a special meaning and a way to torture prisoners.
The first layer of the Red Lotus Hell could be understood as piercing.
The second layer of the Beast Hell: Fatigue.
Third Hell of Hunger: Thirst.
Fourth layer: Scorching Hell: Burn.
Fifth layer: Frigid Hell.
Sixth level of Eternal Hell: Despair.
When criminals enter Impel Down, they will undergo a baptism on the sea floor, that is, the so-called disinfection baptism in the iron pot of "Hell Warm Water" at 100 ℃.
In addition, the purpose of Impel Down is to make all criminals lose their sense of resistance and turn them into walking corpses like the slaves outside.
As long as they lost their will to resist and became obedient, some criminals would be sent to one of the three conventional places.
The first is that they are completely brainwashed and turned into members of other organizations of the world government. The missions they perform may be assassination, cannon fodder, and all kinds of dark means may be done by these people.
If they are found, the world government can abandon them at will.
This is a very important force, enough for the world government to pay attention to.
The second is the Laborer Kingdom.
The Laborer Kingdom is a bridge country, located in the East China Sea, is a bridge country.
The bridge has been built since 700 years ago. Most of the countries are people and criminals who refuse to join the world government. People are forced to build the bridge hard every day.
Most of the criminals in Impel Down may also be thrown in.
The third is naturally to be studied as mice.
So Impel Down will not give the prisoners a quick death, but will use them as slaves or consumables.
The only thing that is known is Hell. If Hell really exists, then it must be Impel Down.
In Impel Down, the prisoners are tortured, and some of them are crazy or schizophrenic.
Among them, the new prisoners are bullied by the old prisoners.
Are the new prisoners miserable?
In fact, the old prisoners are even more miserable. The jailers inside kill the prisoners at will, and they will be cruelly killed or disabled if they make a mistake.
Frying in oil, stabbing to death by sword trees, biting to death by poisonous insects, chopping to death by axes, biting to death by beasts, and so on. It is no different from the real hell.
Dark, vicious, crazy, and humanity has been lost here.
Prisoners often can't bear it and will go crazy, and the jailers are even crazier.
So Impel Down is also called a mental prison, and any prisoner who is imprisoned will eventually become abnormal.
The real role of Impel Down may only be known by a few people. Since the world government has spent so much financial and material resources, the final result must be more beneficial than harmful.
Underground Sixth Floor, Eternal Hell.
Those who can enter here are all famous people, and the criminals here are all monsters and pirates that have been erased from history because of their ferocious nature.
The prisoners on this floor are close to the legendary level, and the end is either death or life imprisonment. Because the prisoners on this floor have done a lot of evil, some of the more cruel things have been covered up by the government, and even deliberately concealed in the newspapers.
It is equivalent to being completely erased from the past, and will be forgotten by the world after ten or twenty years.
Here, you have to bear endless darkness, loneliness, despair …
This is the cruelest punishment for those who dominate one side, kings, and hegemons.
A few months ago, a big man was imprisoned here, The Red Of Solitude Balorik Ledfield.
At the same time, in recent days, Impel Down ushered in another king, that is, Golden Lion Shiki.
But today, another king was ushered in, Pirate King Goldo D. Roger.
The process of being escorted was very smooth, even if the escort team deliberately slowed down, but it was calm all the way, and no one came to rob them.
This made the Marines, who had been prepared, extremely uncomfortable.
Even the Flying Pirates, there were three Fleet Captains, but Roger's Pirates didn't even have a hair.
This made Zhan Guo more and more puzzled, and there was always an ominous premonition.
Because Roger's surrender was too weird.
Time passed quickly. After escorting Roger to Impel Down, Zhan Guo and his team also temporarily rested in Impel Down until three days before the execution.
Underwater Sixth Floor, Eternal Hell.
Dark, gloomy, cold, it's like being abandoned by the world, there is no sound, no light, as if in a black hole, there is no sky and no earth.
It's dark, cold, and really like hell, it makes people's minds collapse.
Ordinary people may go crazy if they stay here for three days.
"Boom … boom …"
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps from a distance, and at the same time, a coal lamp burning with a weak flame came from afar.
Through the weak fire, you can vaguely see the rows of cells made of Seastone, white bones, dry bones, and the whole scene is creepy.
A figure stopped in front of a cell, and inside, a person's hands and feet were firmly locked by chains protruding from the wall. At this time, his head was hanging down as if he was dead.
Perhaps sensing the light, the originally silent figure moved, then raised his head and looked at the door of the cell, looking at the person who came and grinned.
