## One Piece Chapter 527, pages 9-10: The Crimson Hell - Chapter: 527 - Pages: 9-10 - Characters: Buggy, Monkey D. Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, Captain John ### Summary 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. Page 10: Luffy tells Buggy that he is in Impel Down because he is weak, and Buggy angrily tells him to shut up. Luffy thinks Buggy has not noticed that the armband is like a treasure map and admits he did not know that at all. Buggy threatens to take it by force now that Luffy has heard the route information, but Luffy simply hands it over. Buggy is stunned. Luffy says, "Yeah, I just want to save Ace!!" and explains that if Buggy wants the armband, he can have it, but Buggy said he would show the way. Buggy realizes Luffy's lack of greed has made the deal easier than expected. The moment is funny, but it also underlines Luffy's total focus: compared with Ace's life, a treasure clue means nothing to him.
