Cover Page: Straw Hat's Separation Serial: Robin's So Cruel... Holding keys in her mouth while hiding behind a wall from guards.

Ivankov stays behind in an effort to delay Magellan, but both he and Inazuma are defeated by the warden's strength. The two groups of breakouts then meet up with each other, but Magellan catches up, prompting Luffy to work together with Mr. 3 to hold him back.

Buggy and Mr. 3 have reached Level 1 with their rebellion and are heading towards the Main Entrance to Impel Down.

On Level 3, Luffy and his group run from Magellan's Hydra. Determined not to let Luffy escape, the Warden pursues them.

Sadi moans about her back because Ivankov had bent Sadi over his shoulders. She stands up and orders the four Jailer Beasts to do so as well, and the four Beasts take the lift to Level 1.

Jinbe explains to Luffy that Impel Down is surrounded by Marine warships and that if they were to capture a warship, they would arrive at Marineford in time for Ace's execution. With four and a half hours remaining until Ace's execution, the Newkama army head towards the next level.

In front of the stairway to Level 2, Ivankov, who is still in female form, ushers prisoners and Newkamas into the stairway. After the last fighter is through, Ivankov spies Magellan in the distance, with his Hydra hovering above him. While Ivankov confronts Magellan, Inazuma runs up the stairs to Level 2 and using his Choki Choki no Mi to slice apart the walls of the stairway. The Newkamas are surprised that Inazuma destroyed the stairs and stranded Ivankov on Level 3. Inazuma urges them forward and prays for Iva's safety.

Magellan himself is astounded at Ivankov, asking what he was planning to do. Ivankov states that if Magellan did not know what was going to happen next, Magellan was more of a fool than previously thought. Transforming back to male form, Ivankov uses Death Wink on Magellan's Hydra, blasting a hole through it. Magellan states that time cannot be bought for Luffy, to which Ivankov responds that Magellan could not defeat him due to Ivankov's Newkama Kenpo.

On Level 2, Luffy notices that Magellan, Ivankov, and Inazuma are missing. Mr. 2 Bon Kurei tells Luffy that the two Revolutionaries had stayed behind at Level 3. Luffy attempts to turn back, only to be stopped by Mr. 2, saying that the "Miracle Worker" must be trusted. Crocodile notices that the entire floor is abandoned. Jinbe also notices, questioning if someone else released all the prisoners.

On Level 3, Ivankov is kneeling on the ground screaming about his face, which is melting. Magellan simply looks on. However, Ivankov stands back up with a normal face and tosses aside a mask of "heavy make-up". Magellan states that Iva is boring him. Ivankov attacks with 44 no Aesthe Ogi - Mudage Shori Ken, and Magellan prepares to retaliate.

In front of the sliced stairways, Inazuma waits for Ivankov. As the rubble shifts, Inazuma's face lightens up but then darkens as Magellan emerges out of the rubble via Venom Road. A shocked Inazuma prepares to battle; Magellan also does but has a stream of blood running down his face, presumably from Ivankov. Ivankov, however, is lying on the ground, soaked in poison. Inazuma cuts more floor out of the ground and uses them as a defensive stance as Magellan runs forward.

On Level 1, Buggy cries at the sight of the four Jailer Beasts in front of the gateway to the Main Entrance. The rebellion turns back, chased by the Jailer Beasts. Buggy runs into Crocodile, who tells a shocked Mr. 3 and Buggy to move it. Crocodile disparages Mr. 3's presence, while Mr. 3 is panicked by Crocodile being loose.

A prisoner runs up and tells Buggy that the Jailer Beasts have been defeated by Luffy and Jinbe again. Another prisoner reports to Buggy that a huge army of prisoners and "perverts" are surging up from Level 2. Mr. 2 jumps in and kicks Buggy for abandoning them in Level 5. The jailers report that the rebellions have joined together and inquire about Magellan's location. At the exact time, Magellan arrives and forces all the prisoners to keep running. Luffy asks about Ivankov and Inazuma and the two Revolutionaries, who are both lying in pools of poison. Mr. 2 stops Luffy from attacking Magellan and urges him to keep moving forward.

Jinbe overhears Magellan ordering the Marine warships away from the prison. Jinbe urges Luffy that they must get to the Main Entrance without delay, stating that there are bigger problems than Magellan. The Hydra prepares to strike but is stopped by Mr. 3's Candle Wall, which surprises Magellan and Luffy. Mr. 3 is motivated to help Luffy because Luffy accepted him as a friend after only one favor. He tells Luffy that he could only hold Magellan off for a while and to go on. Mr. 3 states that if he was to stay in Luffy's debt, he would be damned.
