701 Summit War Saga: Marineford Arc! (Part 1)

Officially, the long-awaited arc since the beginning of the novel, "Marinford," begins from this chapter. Enjoy!

"Seriously, I didn't expect to see Jin Woo returning to the Demon Castle this quickly..."

"After acquiring the powers of the Shadow Monarch, he's almost invincible! So why he can't return?"

"After the deadly battle with the Gatekeeper Cerberus, I was sure the Demon Castle wouldn't be that bad."

"Vulcan... Metus... and the Demon Monarch Baran! It was exciting to see all these fierce battles... Jin Woo's level has finally reached S-Rank!"

"Man, could Demon Monarch Baran be related to the Shadow Monarch's level?"

"I felt the same when I saw his impressive arrival riding a Dragon!"

"It's not a Dragon but a Wyvern. Jin Woo is lucky to have obtained the wyvern shadow at least. His inability to extract the shadows of the demons he kills made me feel somewhat bitter..."

"Don't remind me. Every time he can't extract the shadows of his powerful enemies, I remember the Snow Elf's shadow, Baruka, who Jin Woo failed to extract his shadow..."

"Anyway, it was fun watching Jin Woo climbing the floors and crushing demons on each level... It reminded me of Luffy's journey through the Impel Down levels."

"Hahaha! Are you comparing Luffy's short journey through 6 levels in Impel Down to 100 levels in Demon Castle?"

"Forget it, it was just an analogy, man... Oh, the wait has been long. I miss One Piece manga; it's the only manga I feel addicted to while reading. No other manga, not even Slime manga or Solo Leveling manhwa, can replace that feeling..."

"Speaking of Rimuru... man, this week's chapters were unsatisfying. I feel like the beginning is somewhat boring."

"That's because Rimuru is still weak and building his foundation! Recruiting the Goblins and Wolves tribes was a wise choice..."

"I feel like I love this kind of story where the protagonist builds his own kingdom. I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapters..."

The streets and markets of the art capital, Ohara, were filled with people discussing their favorite manga topics, which had released many chapters in the past few days.

Whether in libraries or schools, in markets or shops, bars, and restaurants, everyone in these places was talking about manga and the exciting events that happened in the latest updates of their favorite stories.

..

"Have you heard the latest news?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Recent news from the other side says that the World Government appointed a new warden at Impel Down..."

"That's what Morgans said…"

"You know Morgans, right?"

"Ah… Yeah… Does that mean Magellan has been replaced... Wait, isn't Magellan the current warden?"

"Well, he was, but he's been replaced."

"Is the reason for that his failure in the manga? Who replaced him?"

"Perhaps, but isn't that a silly reason if his failure in the manga is the reason for his dismissal? Well, the real surprise or shock is who replaced him."

"Who replaced him?"

"Marshal D. Teach..."

 … 

Ring Hell Island, inside the central prison:

"Has it started?"

"Hasn't it started yet?! You fools! I've been waiting for a whole month!"

Paa!! Paa!! Paa!!

In a certain cell, a middle-aged man with thick yellow hair continued to fiercely strike the iron bars of his cell.

The Golden Lion caused a commotion once again, after becoming somewhat foolish and finding his only cure in One Piece manga… Waiting a whole month after each new update is almost killed him out of boredom.

Boom!

Suddenly, a leg came from nowhere and collided somehow with the Golden Lion's body, sending him flying to hit the wall of his cell and fall to the ground.

"Causing a commotion and disturbing your fellow prisoners repeatedly is forbidden; don't cause trouble, Golden Lion."

The face of the person who struck Shiki was revealed, a legendary and famous hunter, Byrnndi World!

Moria's eyes, who shared the same cell with Shiki at this moment, widened as he sensed Brynndi World's arrival.

Since it's not break time yet Moria closed his eyes and returned to his thoughts, uninterested in Brynndi World and what he wanted.

"Shiki, I intended to invite you to something exciting that will happen soon, but it seems you haven't recovered yet, unfortunately," said World with an insincere tone.

Then he took out a manga volume shining under the prison lights.

The cover looked majestic, with Whitebeard occupying the top and largest part of the cover, at the bottom appeared a part of his crew like Marco, Vista, and Jozu, then pictures of all the Shichibukai members from Mihawk to Doflamingo, Hancock, Kuma, Moria, Teach, Jinbei, Crocodile.

Luffy, Ivankov, Buggy, and others who escaped from Impel Down running at the front of the cover.

This volume had just been released a few minutes ago; outside the prison, people all over the world were going crazy to get even a single copy of this book in Brynndi World's hands at this moment.

Because it's the new release of One Piece manga with the monthly update, the most anticipated release since the beginning of the saga several months ago.

Summit War Saga: Marineford Arc's volume!

Shiki's eyes gleamed as he saw the One Piece volume in Brynndi World's hand like a starving lion who hadn't eaten a piece of meat in a month!

"I don't care about the exciting event you want me to participate in; I'll be grateful if you give me One Piece manga... I knew it, the new volume has already been released! Jihahahaha!"

"Oh, if Mr. Rob wasn't merciful towards prisoners like you, Shiki, I wouldn't have let you get what you want this easily. But the lord's orders cannot be contradicted."

After saying that, he threw the volume to Shiki, who eagerly intercepted it and quickly opened the first page.

As he immersed himself in the story's atmosphere again after a month-long hiatus, the Golden Lion's eyes regained their sparkle. At this moment, he completely disconnected from reality and entered the events of the summit war.

Seeing this made Moria uneasy.

"Can I get one too?"

"Oh, of course," replied Brynndi World and pulled out another volume, "By the way, you may not believe it, but it seems your weak counterpart will also participate in the war."

Moria's eyelashes trembled, and he almost cursed, "I already know that."
