Luffy and company are their way to Marineford, and Buggy ascends to idol status for most of the prisoners.Summary:In Level 4 of Impel Down, Blackbeard and his crew are revived by Shiryuu, who had brought the antidote to Magellan's poison. Blackbeard invites Shiryuu to join his gang, and Shiryuu accepts the offer.Buggy's descend into madness... wait, never mind. He's already nuts.After sailing past the Gates of Justice, Buggy wants to celebrate the escape, but Luffy and Ivankov's crew are still depressed over the lost of Bon, and soon Luffy and Buggy end up in a brawl. After the brawl, Luffy and Buggy arrive at the helm of the ship and are shocked to learn that Jimbei is a Shichibukai. Buggy and most of the other prisoners are then even more shocked when they discover the ship is heading for Marineford. Buggy and the prisoners want the ship to turn around, but Crocodile informs them that the ship is stuck in the circulating current between Impel Down, Marineford, and Enies Lobby. At this point, the ship receives a call from Marine HQ which is picked up by Luffy. The marines state that they will not open the Gates of Justice at Marineford, so the escapees' ship will be stuck in the currents. The marines also identify Luffy and Buggy as masterminds behind the escape, taking note of Buggy's history as a trainee on Gold Roger's ship along side Skanks. After Luffy hangs up telling the marines to wait and see, many of the prisoners start looking up to Buggy as if he were a rock star. Sensing a great opportunity, Buggy rallies the prisoners together with the goal of taking down White Beard, and thus everyone on the ship is in agreement as to the destination of Marineford.At Marineford, Ace is led to the gallows with three hours left until the execution.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Ah Buggy and his funny logic. Aside from the fact that he and the prisoners who idolize him have no chance in hell of taking down Whitebeard, Buggy seems to have to completely forgotten about the marines who want to crush him and his supporters. It's true that Crocodile has a similar intention of taking down White Beard, but being a former Shichibukai I envision that the Marines would be a lot more willing to accept his assistance than Buggy's. I pretty sure Buggy will balk when the going gets tough.On the other hand, we finally saw Blackbeard and Shiryuu again, and it seems the two have joined forces. Turns out Blackbeard really did get owned by Magellan in one move, which doesn't look for Blackbeard, but there again there was a reason why Luffy and everyone were running away from Magellan like he was Godzilla. We still don't know what Blackbeard is really up to though, and it could be a while before we find out given how Luffy is on his way to his next big adventure.
