"It's also here with me!" Caesar Clown laughed.

Outside the workshop, the huge slime monster created by Caesar Clown was constantly ravaging.

Both the people from the Fifth Division of the Imperial Guard and the subordinates Caesar Clown had sent out before were dying constantly.

The poison gas began to spread here constantly…

"These guys want to poison everyone here to death!"

"Hey! It's too dangerous here! Why haven't our reinforcements arrived yet?"

"Reinforcements, my ass! The nearest reinforcements need six or seven hours to arrive. In that time, it's enough for us to die a hundred times!"

"Damn, that Caesar Clown is simply a devil!"

Zoro and his group of four were also constantly dodging those slime monsters.

"Zoro! Do you feel that its speed is getting faster and faster?" Sanji reminded with a gloomy face.

"No need for you to say that! This guy seems to have mutated! Look, its color has changed from red to purple! If we don't enter that workshop, I'm afraid we'll be eroded to death by this poison gas!" Zoro roared.

"Run!"

Chopper, after obtaining Caesar Clown's research notes, was also observing Luffy and the others in secret.

"Damn it! There are three enemies, if I go out to save Luffy and the others now, I will definitely fail!"

Chopper clenched his fists: "Damn it, what should I do!"

Caesar Clown estimated the time and began to show an evil smile: "Time is up! My pet Smiley should be adapting to the surrounding environment by now!"

"Next, I will use your lives to prove that the war weapon I invented is the best in the world. What Straw Hat Luffy with a 400 million bounty, what Ghost Physician Law, what Smoker! I will tell everyone my power!"

Caesar Clown rubbed his hands excitedly: "This victory belongs to me!"

Then the cage imprisoning Luffy and his group began to rise slowly.

"What are you doing? Caesar Clown, let me out! You bastard!!"

Luffy roared angrily, but the cage didn't mean to stop at all.

Just as Chopper was about to act, he suddenly received a note.

It was written: Don't do anything!

Clatter! With the sound of machinery running constantly, the cage imprisoning Luffy and the others was transferred by Caesar Clown from inside the workshop to outside the workshop.

"Look! It's General Smoker and the others!"

"Are we finally saved?"

The Imperial Guard soldiers outside the workshop cheered excitedly.

However, when they saw the state of Smoker and the others, their smiles stopped abruptly.

"No way, are General Smoker and the others still in a state of being imprisoned?!!!"

"It's over, it's over! We're definitely done for this time!"

Many soldiers were discouraged instantly.

Not far from them, the poison gas was floating toward them.

Under the cover of purple poison gas, it was as if the end of the world had arrived, making the soldiers shiver, and many even cried.

Even Smoker and Tashigi felt they were at a dead end.

"Are we going to die here?" Tashigi muttered to herself.

The Straw Hat crew, however, didn't look worried at all.

Franky observed the construction method of this workshop and couldn't help but praise: "Caesar Clown, this guy still has some skills! This workshop is not simple!"

"The building materials here are all of excellent quality!" Robin also sighed.

"Aren't you afraid?" Tashigi asked in surprise.

"What's the use of being afraid? Our captain Luffy is still here!" Franky shrugged and said.

Luffy was lying on the ground very calmly: "Ah, it's indeed a bit troublesome. If there is any way to crack it, that would be great."

【Hahaha, there is no harm without comparison! Compared to the calmness of the Straw Hat crew, Smoker and the others are too weak!】

【But what can Luffy do to escape now? They are restricted by the sea-prism stone ability!】

【If this continues, Luffy and the others will definitely die!】

Law also looked at Luffy with a smile at this time: "Although Vergo's appearance was a bit unexpected, Straw Hat captain, we can't stumble here! Our alliance plan has just begun!"

Luffy took a deep breath, closed his eyes and focused: "That's right! No matter what the outcome is, I have to try! Even if I fail, I can't let these guys look down on me! I am the man who will become the Martial Arts Alliance Leader!"

"Good! The battle plan is still valid, let's start the counterattack!"

Law announced loudly.

In the desperate expressions of Smoker and Tashigi, the Straw Hat crew and Law were ready for a counterattack!

"By the way, how do you plan to counterattack, Law? It's not easy for us to act in this state!" Luffy asked with some confusion.

"Who can light a fire here? Can you ignite the chariot below us?"

Law asked at this time.

"Yes, Franky can do this! He is a cyborg!" Luffy said.

"Mm, then I'll leave it to Franky!" Law said solemnly.

"Alright! No problem!" Franky laughed heartily.

"Franky—Fireball!" Franky stood up, stretched his waist, and then opened his mouth wide, spraying a giant fireball.

This fireball with destructive power bombarded the steel chariot below, and it exploded instantly!

Boom!

The entire steel chariot turned into a pile of scrap metal instantly, and the range of the fire spread.

Caesar Clown, who was still celebrating his victory, changed his face drastically: "This… what is going on? Did those guys give up on themselves?

That's really boring. As for that cyborg, after you die, I will definitely dissect your corpse well!"

When the smoke completely covered the cage of Luffy and the others, Law unlocked the handcuffs directly.

"Ah? What? How did you open the sea-prism stone handcuffs? You shouldn't be able to use your ability!"

Luffy's eyes widened in shock.

"Because, these handcuffs didn't seal my ability at all."

Law said with a smile: "This is just an ordinary pair of handcuffs. Did you think I only did some trivial things when I sneaked in here before? I had already swapped these handcuffs!"

Luffy said with a bitter face after hearing this: "No way! You actually hid this from me? And you still say we are allies!"

"Hehe, this is a secret."

Law said with a bad smile.

Then he picked up his sword and sawed the handcuffs of Luffy and the three of them.

"Next is you guys. How should I deal with you two Imperial Guards?" Law pointed his sword at Smoker and Tashigi.

Smoker stared at Law with gritted teeth.

Tashigi also clenched her fists.

"Kill if you want, even if I die, I won't bow to outlaws wanted by the imperial court like you!" Smoker snorted coldly.

"Tsk tsk, quite tough!"

Then Law activated his ability, swapping the bodies of Smoker and Tashigi back.

Tashigi begged Law: "Please, unlock my chains! After unlocking them, I will agree to whatever you want me to do!"

"Hey! Tashigi, why are you bowing to a wanted criminal? I didn't expect you to be such a coward!" Smoker scolded.

"What do you know!" Tashigi glared at Smoker with hatred: "If we die here, who will save our subordinates? Who will expose the traitor Vergo? Will he continue to perform tasks with our Imperial Guard identity? And you, why do you deserve to live?"

"I!" Smoker was speechless.

"Oh? So that's how it is, you want to protect your subordinates!" Law looked at Smoker: "This little girl sees things more clearly than you. At this point, do you still want to maintain your worthless face?"

"But since she begged me so earnestly to let you go, then I'll spare you."

Law finally decided to spare Smoker after weighing the pros and cons.

After all, the value of his survival was far higher than his death.

"Thank you." Smoker bowed respectfully to Law.

Luffy took this opportunity to pry open the cage with his hands: "Hahaha! I'm finally free again, this is great!"

Then Luffy jumped out of the cage.

Law clenched his fists tightly when he saw Luffy rushing out without any plan.
