## One Piece Chapter 548, pages 16-17: Thank You - Chapter: 548 - Pages: 16-17 - Characters: Bon Clay, Luffy, Jimbei, Emporio Ivankov, Buggy, Crocodile, Mr. 3, Magellan, Den Den Mushi, Impel Down prisoners, Portgas D. Ace ### Summary Page 16: On the escaped ship, the prisoners understand that without Bon Clay they would be at the bottom of the ocean on the wrong side of the gates. Narration compares friendship to a flower blooming even in hell: "Even in Hell, the single flower known as friendship blooms. As waves break on the shore, it leaves its petals as mementos. May it one day bloom again, Okama Way." The image shows the prisoners mourning, the Den Den Mushi quiet, and Bon Clay left before Magellan inside Impel Down. His friendship has made the impossible escape possible. Page 17: Luffy and the prisoners scream, "Bon-chaaaaan!!!" while Bon Clay stands alone before Magellan. Magellan asks if he has any last words, and Bon answers, "I have no regrets." The narration says that at this time, 241 prisoners have successfully escaped from the world's greatest sea floor prison, Impel Down. Time left until Portgas D. Ace's execution: four hours. The narration also notes that this would become known as Impel Down's greatest failure, but the story did not end there.
