One Piece – I Am A Different Luffy!

Chapter 294 – Impeldown 03.

Third Person POV

Impeldown , First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Luffy felt his hands relieved of the itch that Magellan's poison had caused as soon as it hit them.

He began to head for the stairs leading to the second level while Enel's static field continued to block all communication, creating a static field that not even the Log Pose could identify the location. This left the marines still struggling to get here.

Bepo might get lost for a while, but he would quickly catch up before they reached Marineford, as soon as they left the prison.

As they opened the door, the alarm was still flashing blue, while hundreds of soldiers waiting for the fight to end on the surface were startled by Luffy appearing there with his crew as they passed through the door calmly. Luffy smiled at them, and when they went to point their weapons at him, he once again released the Conqueror's Haki, knocking down the crowd of people except for one person.

"Hey, Luffy... Are you going to knock everyone down with your Haki?" Usopp asked, seeing Luffy simply using this ability multiple times.

"They're just soldiers... There's no reason not to use it..." Luffy commented as he began to walk towards the only person standing there.

Domino took a step back, lacking the courage to attack Luffy with her whip. "Hey, I didn't know there was such a beautiful woman in this dump..." Luffy lied with a smile, knowing of her existence, while the girls behind him glared at him with killing eyes, but he didn't care.

He continued to approach the woman, leaving her with no escape. "I want the map of the prison in your back pocket," Luffy demanded.

"I'll never give it up!" she exclaimed.

"As if you had a choice..." Luffy commented as he appeared behind her and took the map without her reacting. "I didn't want to be rude by grabbing a woman's butt who's not my wife, but you left me no choice," he whispered while looking at the map and keeping it open, with Domino stepping back frustrated.

"You grabbed my butt!" she shouted angrily at Luffy's cheeky move.

"I don't know what you're talking about..." Luffy commented while seeing half a dozen pairs of eyes staring at him.

"Flirt!"

"He doesn't waste time..."

Luffy ignored his wives' dissatisfaction with his behavior and looked at Domino with one eye before releasing his Haki and making her fall to the ground.

"Let's see how this prison works..." Luffy said, calmly looking at the map as he walked forward.

This floor had giant trees with red coloration, called the scarlet sea, because their leaves had blades that cut anyone who passed close.

"Let's go!" Luffy ignored his women's indignation and moved forward, debating whether to destroy this place. But he thought it wasn't necessary, considering they would pass through the safe areas without any opponents capable of stopping them.

"Luffy... There's someone here we haven't seen in a long time..." Yamato, one of the few who didn't mind if Luffy flirted with other women, approached him and said.

"Yes, he's on this floor, and I intend to see him," Luffy commented with a smile.

The prisoners in their cells saw the strange movement while guards ran back and forth outside their cells.

"Hey, what are those explosions?! What's happening?!"

"You don't know... but I heard some guards saying they captured an important member of Whitebeard's crew. Maybe he came in person to rescue his ally!" Another prisoner commented, leaving those who heard in their cell quite surprised.

As they were isolated, the guards' conversations were the only thing that kept them informed about what was happening in the world unless a new prisoner recently transferred to the prison spoke up.

"Whitebeard is here!?" One specific prisoner, with a clown nose and green hair while wearing striped clothes, was alarmed, "Wait! This might be my chance!" he exclaimed, after all, he had hidden the fact that he was a Devil Fruit user because he was very weak. Buggy smiled joyfully as his body began to split in half and passed through the bars.

"Hey! How did you get out?!" the prisoners shouted, watching Buggy reassemble his body freely outside the cell.

"Hahahahaha! I finally will be free, after months imprisoned in this place, finally! Goodbye, you idiots!" Buggy exclaimed, mocking his former cellmates as he began to run through the corridors while the guards did the same, trying to hide.

He continued running until he saw a corridor with some guards fleeing. "He's here!! Run!"

"It's the Straw Hat!"

"He's going to kill us!!"

Buggy looked surprised at the guards' exclamations as they ran in front of him. Suddenly, an explosion of flames blew them away, scaring him even more.

"Straw Hat... and purple flames..." he murmured and widened his eyes, realizing it wasn't Whitebeard, but Monkey D. Luffy here. "I have to run!" he said, stepping back and ready to run in the opposite direction.

"Buggy." Buggy stopped as soon as he heard the voice behind him, slowly turning to see Luffy standing there with his arms crossed, looking at him with interest.

"It's been a long time since I last saw you..." Luffy said calmly.

"Straw Hat..." Buggy said as snot ran from his nose. With this pirate in front of him, it was someone he wanted revenge on, but now facing him, he knew Luffy was a much bigger monster than he had previously thought.

"Hm? A clown with a red nose...?" Enel murmured disdainfully.

"Who are you calling a clown with a red nose!" Buggy exclaimed angrily at Enel after hearing that before returning to his frightened expression.

"Buggy... You came here after all..." Alvida said, looking at Buggy. He had sought her out in Loguetown for an alliance against Luffy, but she had refused, waiting for her future husband.

"HOOOOO!!" A huge sound emerged at that moment, with Chouchou turning into Cerberus and looking at a more terrified Buggy, seeing that monster looking at him as its prey.

"What is that!?" he exclaimed, trying to run.

"This is the dog from Orange Town, the city you looted when we first met. Your subordinates almost killed him, so don't be surprised if he has to kill you now." Luffy decided to explain why Chouchou was acting that way towards the clown. His gaze returned to Chouchou, who opened its three mouths, emitting its powers.

"Calm down, Chouchou, I need him alive. If you want revenge, beat him up later, but don't kill him," Luffy requested, and Chouchou, with lightning, fire, and ice ready to fire, seemed to calm down, closing its mouths and shrinking back to its normal form.

"Well, now that we've finally met, I can take something from you that's quite precious to you." Luffy said, and before Buggy could react, a wave of Haki hit him. Buggy saw the wave pass through him and looked at Luffy confused, wondering what that was.

"My Haki doesn't work against you...?" Luffy was surprised by this. Of all the people who could resist him, Luffy never considered Buggy among them. "Well, it seems that in the end, you were always special." He commented, looking at Buggy, still confused, with some interest, and disappeared.

"But that doesn't matter much..." Luffy said, appearing behind Buggy and slapping him on the head before he fell unconscious this time.

His crew was coming calmly as the captain continued to clear the way, they were even bored.

"Hey Luffy, are you going to cut him like that?!" Vivi exclaimed, seeing Luffy draw Ace from the sheath in front of the fallen Buggy. Many others looked surprised at Luffy, after all, he didn't kill unconscious opponents.

"You didn't know him... he possesses the Bara Bara no Mi," Nami told them. "He almost killed me once when I was his prisoner in Chouchou's town," she explained to those who didn't know Buggy.

Luffy moved his sword and cut off one of Buggy's arms, revealing a paper between them. "Here it is... Captain John's map..." Luffy smiled with satisfaction.

"What is this?" Nojiko asked as her sister pushed her to get closer to Luffy.

Nami screamed at Luffy, hugging him and looking at the paper. "A treasure map!!" she exclaimed, her eyes returning to their usual Berry symbol.

"Yes. The map that might lead to the treasure left by Rocks D. Xebec..." Luffy commented while Nami seemed to get more and more excited about it.

"That's interesting... let's look for the location on this map," Alvida asked, also with interest, maybe not as much as Nami, but as a pirate, she also had her attention on finding treasures.

"It's in the New World... we'll search for it when we head to that sea," Luffy said as they nodded.

"A treasure hunt! That sounds so fun!" Shirahoshi exclaimed happily.

"Anyway... let's keep going," Luffy said as he reattached Buggy's arm and moved forward, leaving the unconscious clown on the ground.

They continued their path with Luffy following the map he had taken, entering the cell area of Level 1 while people looked at him surprised, even murmuring that he wasn't Whitebeard as many had thought.

"Who is this?" someone asked, looking at Luffy confusedly, just like his crew coming behind him, after all, they were here before Luffy gained his fame in the world.

"I don't know, but they're invading the prison, aren't they?" the man murmured with boredom before even recognizing his own words.

"What?! He's invading the prison?" many exclaimed at that moment.

"They're the pirate group I talked about a few months ago, they're the Straw Hats who defeated two Shichibukai and a vice-admiral in Alabasta!" another exclaimed, looking at Luffy passing with his group among them.

"They defeated two Shichibukai and a vice-admiral?" the prisoners looked at Luffy stunned by that.

"You fool, I was imprisoned last week, you don't even know that he fought two admirals before destroying the government's judicial island, Enies Lobby doesn't exist anymore..." a man who hadn't said anything about Luffy when he arrived announced this, leaving all the Level 1 prisoners shocked with this information.

"He's also Garp's grandson! The marine who fought Roger head-on!" another exclaimed.

"What, the hero of the navy's grandson became a pirate?! This sounds amazing!" another started to laugh.

"Hey, Garp's grandson. Get me out of here, and I'll follow you for the rest of my life!" someone began to shout from the cells.

"Yes, recruit me into your crew!!"

"Choose me, I'll be your best subordinate, Captain Monkey D. Luffy!"

They started to exclaim while Luffy sighed, he didn't have time to deal with them now. "Shut up," he simply said, releasing another wave of Haki. The place fell silent immediately. Luffy could make them faint, kneel, or even shut up as their sovereign commanded with his Haki, so everyone could see that this pirate wasn't just anyone, especially when they felt their mouths close immediately with that order, just watching Luffy continue his way without saying anything else.

Luffy and his crew finally found the stairs to Level 2, an interesting place full of beasts. Luffy looked at his loyal dog. "Hey, Chouchou, how about you fight some beasts?" he asked.

"Woolf Wolf!" Chouchou barked excitedly.
