Chapter 242: Kuro’s Plan
Luffy quickly confirmed what Shakky had said, making Rayleigh feel like the whole situation was unreal.
The fact that his closest friend still had a son out there—and that he had been entrusted to Garp—was shocking to him.
"Oi~"
"Kuro, help me think of a way. I have to save Ace!" Luffy pleaded anxiously.
Kuro frowned and thought for a moment before speaking slowly, "Luffy, we can't rush this. You have to remember that Ace is being held in Impel Down. Right now, we don't have any information about Impel Down, so we need to make a careful plan."
Hearing this, Luffy became even more anxious, but he forced himself to stay calm and waited for Kuro to continue.
"I'll explain everything about Impel Down and the upcoming public execution," Shakky said softly, looking at the worried faces of Luffy and the others.
She then went on to explain everything she knew—about Impel Down's tight security, its complicated layout, and the time and location of the execution.
As she spoke, the group became more and more uneasy. Based on what they were hearing, rescuing Ace from Impel Down seemed nearly impossible.
"Kuro~"
Luffy turned to Kuro with urgency in his eyes, filled with hope and expectation.
