## One Piece Chapter 527, pages 8-9: The Crimson Hell - Chapter: 527 - Pages: 8-9 - Characters: Buggy, Monkey D. Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, Captain John ### Summary Page 8: Buggy tells Luffy to run as fast as he can and promises, "I'll show you the way to the entrance of Level 2!!!" A diagram explains Buggy the Clown's Bara Bara power: he is a "split split" man who can split his body and move each part freely within a set controllable area, but his feet have to stay on the ground and cannot fly. Luffy says he wants Level 5, not Level 2, but Buggy snaps that Luffy cannot go straight there. He explains that Impel Down is arranged in levels, starting from this first underground floor, Level 1. The page slows the chase long enough to explain both Buggy's power limitations and the prison's vertical structure, making clear why Luffy needs a guide downward. Page 9: Buggy explains that the deeper the levels go, the more powerful the criminals become. A diagram shows Level 1 through Level 5, with an unknown question-marked depth below. Buggy says he was sent to Level 4 for the burning torture and does not even know what the next level down would be like. He is pretty sure the prisoners with bounties over 100 million are kept on Level 5, the lowest known floor, though some inmates claim there is another floor below that. The rumors say the monsters sleeping there are so evil they have been erased from history. Buggy says those are only rumors, but Ace might be there. He can lead Luffy as far as Level 4, and he is only doing it because Luffy will give him the treasure mark that points to Captain John's treasure.
