## One Piece Chapter 539, pages 17-17: Emporio Tension Hormones - Chapter: 539 - Pages: 17-17 - Characters: Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, Inazuma, Emporio Ivankov, Impel Down guards, Marineford ### Summary Page 17: Luffy races toward Ace, panting "Haa... Haa..." while yelling, "Make it in time, please make it in time!!!" and then, "I'm coming, Ace!!!" On Level 6, Ace is brought out in chains. A guard says, "Now then, Portgas D. Ace, you will be now transported," and the destination is announced: "To the execution site, Marineford!!!" The page cuts between Luffy's desperate sprint and Ace's silent, battered face, making the distance between them feel brutally small but still decisive. The chapter ends with the rescue and transfer happening at the same moment, seconds turning into the enemy.
