## One Piece Chapter 542, pages 16-18: Another Tale to Tell - Chapter: 542 - Pages: 16-18 - Characters: Emporio Ivankov, Saldeath, Blue Gorillas, Luffy, Inazuma, Impel Down prisoners, Impel Down guards, Jimbei, Crocodile, Bentham/Mr. 2 Bon Clay, Sadi-chan, Demon Beast Guards ### Summary Page 16: Head Jailer Saldeath appears with the Blue Gorillas, shouting for them to go wild and promising thanks. He orders the Blue Gorillas to get the giant-faced okama king too. Ivankov protests, "I'm not giant-faced!! I used my Face Growth Hormones!!!" while the Blue Gorillas close in. Then Iva unleashes a massive "Wink!!!" and blasts the attackers away with a huge explosion. The skull symbol and shouts of "Hell" emphasize how absurdly destructive a single wink is. Saldeath's confidence collapses as the Blue Gorillas are flung backward. Page 17: The fight against the Blue Gorillas spreads across Level 4. One guard cries that the entire Blue Gorilla squad was defeated with one attack, while Ivankov laughs and admits he has no idea what is going on. He tells Luffy not to stop and says they will take care of the guys in back, so Luffy should keep moving forward and keep going up. Luffy answers, "Got it, thanks!!" and charges on. The page shows the escape force splitting roles: Ivankov and the released prisoners hold back pursuers while Luffy keeps climbing toward Ace and Marine Headquarters. Page 18: The Demon Beast Guards arrive: all three of them appear at once. Reinforcements shout that Sadi-chan came to help, and the Demon Beast Guards prepare to attack. Jimbei tells Luffy to go and says he will support him, though he admits he is not of much use on land. Luffy says Jimbei looks plenty strong to him. Around them, Crocodile reacts to weakness, Bon Clay and the others scream as the demon beasts crash in, and the battlefield becomes a pileup of monstrous guards and desperate prisoners. The escape route is still open, but it is being defended by Impel Down's strongest beasts.
