Then he said to Crocodile, "If you're willing to help us, then we can let you out. But if you dare to betray us, I'm going to reveal that secret of yours."
Crocodile glared at Ivankov with eyes spitting fire. If looks could kill, Ivankov would have died hundreds of times over.
At this time, the prisoners in Infinite Hell finally understood Luffy's purpose for coming here, so they all shouted.
"I also have a grudge against Whitebeard. Let me out too. I'll go with you."
"That's right, I also have a grudge against Navy Headquarters. I want to take revenge on Navy Headquarters."
"Me too, me too."
"Let me out. As long as you let me out, I'll do anything."
"..."
"Shut up."
Listening to the surrounding noise, Ivankov snorted coldly. However, how could these prisoners listen to him?
He just heard him roar and immediately used his ability to attack these prisoners. These prisoners were locked up inside and didn't have any strength, so they were easily knocked down by Ivankov.
"Please, let me out too."
Suddenly, Jinbe shouted loudly. He said in a deep voice, "Take me with you. I can definitely help you. We've known each other since Ace first joined the Whitebeard Pirates. We have a good relationship, and he's also told me about you. The reason I'm locked up here is because I opposed this war. I also want to save Ace."
Luffy and the others stared at Jinbe in surprise. They didn't expect Jinbe to actually say such words. Especially Ivankov, he knew Jinbe's identity, so he was even more surprised.
Luffy stared at Jinbe for a long time before finally saying, "Alright, I can let you out."
Jinbe immediately revealed a look of surprise and said, "I'm so grateful."
On the other hand, Lightning, the Revolutionary, frowned, appearing very uneasy. However, Ivankov didn't object, so he could only listen to Luffy's choice.
Because of Lightning's ability, Crocodile and Jinbe were quickly released. The five people stood together.
Lightning, the Revolutionary, said, "In that case, besides us, two Shichibukai have joined."
Luffy asked curiously, "Shichibukai? Isn't there only one?"
Ivankov said, "Jinbe is also one of the Shichibukai."
Luffy looked at Jinbe in surprise. He didn't expect Jinbe to actually be such a powerful figure.
Crocodile said, "My goal is to take Whitebeard's head."
Jinbe said, "I won't let you harm Whitebeard Pops."
Crocodile said, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to stop me. Or, should we compete right now?"
Ivankov snorted coldly and said, "Crocodile, don't forget your past."
Hearing Ivankov's threat, Crocodile immediately didn't dare to speak. The biggest secret in his heart was under control, so he could only let Ivankov manipulate him.
Ivankov said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then we should set off."
Luffy also shouted excitedly. However, Jinbe said, "No, we have one more thing to do."
Ivankov asked in confusion, "What else is there?"
Jinbe said, "We still have to rescue Akira. With him, we'll be more confident of leaving here."
"Akira, are you talking about 'Death God'?"
Hearing Jinbe's words, Ivankov asked with a puzzled expression.
Jinbe said, "That's right. Akira's strength is the strongest in this level of the prison, and he's also my comrade, as well as a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. He will definitely save Ace after he gets out."
Luffy said, "That guy called Sword Demon also asked me to save him, so we should let him out too."
However, Crocodile frowned and said, "That guy is a madman. Is it really okay to let him out?"
Although Crocodile had only been in Infinite Hell for a very short time, he still understood Akira's terror very well. Moreover, Akira was also a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.
If Akira was released, he probably wouldn't have any chance to assassinate Whitebeard, so he himself wasn't willing to do so.
Lightning, the Revolutionary, also said, "That 'Death God' is an extremely dangerous figure. Is it really okay to let him out?"
Luffy said firmly, "Since I promised him, I must do it. Where is he being held now?"
Jinbe said, "He's in the deepest part of this level of the prison. Follow me."
Jinbe led Luffy and the others to the deepest part of Infinite Hell. They saw a cell that was much cleaner than the other cells and was also larger than the other cells. However, only one person was locked up in this cell.
When Luffy and the others saw the figure in the cell, they were all startled. Even Jinbe revealed a look of shock.
"Akira?"
The person in the cell looked very terrifying, with long hair that clearly hadn't been cut for a long time. However, what made people terrified wasn't his appearance, but the dozens of astonishing chains that bound him.
The entire cell was filled with chains, locking Akira up from all directions. Among them, there were many chains that pierced through this person's body. One end of the chain was fixed on the wall of the cell, and the other end was on this person's body.
"This?"
Ivankov also looked at this scene in horror and said, "How much vigilance and fear is needed to do this? He's already become like this. How has he managed to live until now?"
Being bound like this, even moving was difficult. An ordinary person simply couldn't withstand this level, let alone be able to sustain it for ten years.
"This guy." Crocodile also narrowed his eyes. Like them, the Shichibukai, being locked up here only meant having their hands and feet bound. However, Akira's situation was dozens of times more miserable than theirs.
"To be trapped here and still be able to persist for ten years is truly unimaginable. What kind of belief and endurance is needed?"
