What the manga shows
2 chapters · updated
No exact duration is given for how long Emporio Ivankov spent in Impel Down. Guards recall that Iva was there long ago and reference an incident from several years earlier when prisoners began disappearing without trace from Level 5. ch. 536, p. 4 Prisoners in the freezing hell likewise state that he was here long ago and debate whether he had died. ch. 536, p. 12 These vanishings were feared as prisoners being demoined away, and Ivankov had in fact reached the hidden Level 5.5 Newkama Land created long before by a digging-ability prisoner. ch. 537, p. 7 A separate flashback notes that Ivankov visited Kamabakka Kingdom fifteen years earlier, yet this detail concerns his activities outside Impel Down rather than the length of his captivity. ch. 537, p. 10 "Iva was there long ago" "an incident from several years earlier" "HE WAS HERE, LONG AGO"
The manga never states exactly how long Emporio Ivankov was imprisoned in Impel Down.
