[[header:Impel Down]]
[[quoteright:125:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/impel_down_portrait.png]]

->''"You're nothing but pirates and rebels who became notorious for your wicked deeds!! Were you allowed to roam the seas again, law-abiding citizens would live in such fear for their loved ones that they couldn't sleep at night!! This prison was constructed as a warehouse for scum like you so that decent people could live in peace!! If you were to get out, you'd terrorize the world!! But I'm not going to allow that to happen!!"''
--> '''Hannyabal (Chapter 543)'''

Also known as the "Underwater Prison" or the [[TheAlcatraz "Great Prison"]], Impel Down is the World Government's prison for all kinds of criminals and pirates. Imagine a fusion between Alcatraz and the "Inferno" of Literature/TheDivineComedy and you get the idea.\\\

The prison is divided into six levels, each signified by a number. The higher the number, the deeper the level extends underwater. The bounties of the prisoners scale linearly with the prison level. Each level has its own methods of torture:

* '''Level 1: Crimson Hell''': The prisoners are forced to run from the guards and the blue gorillas through a forest made of trees with leaves as sharp as razors. For this reason, the leaves, stained by the prisoners' blood, appear red. If one wants to avoid the torture, there's a giant hole that leads to [[FromBadToWorse Level 2.]] Buggy used to be in this level, and avoided torture thanks to his Devil Fruit ability.

* '''Level 2: Beast Hell''': The halls are inhabited by dangerous beasts like manticores, giant scorpions, and a basilisk who chase and devour any prisoner they encounter, all while a large sphinx guards the exit. For this reason, the prisoners prefer to stay in the jail cells. Buggy says that all the prisoners on this level have a bounty higher than his (15 million berries). Galdino used to be kept on this level.

* '''Level 3: Starvation Hell''': This level is hot and has a desert-like terrain. The prisoners are kept in a near death state, fed just enough water and food to keep them from starving. All the criminals with a bounty higher than 50 million berries are kept here. Bentham also used to be here, despite having a bounty of 32 million.

* '''Level 4: Inferno Hell''': This level is even hotter than Level 3 (whose heat in fact comes from the level below) due to the presence of a large pool with boiling blood. Here, the prisoners are constantly working supplying wood logs in the pool or under torture. Daz Bones used to be kept in this level.

* '''Level 5: Frozen Hell''': In contrast to the level above, this one is a desolate tundra where prisoners either die because of the freezing cold (which is so intense the prisoners lose pieces of their bodies due to frostbite) or starvation (due to the food becoming frozen and inedible). In this level there is also the wolf unit that hunts down the prisoners. The wolves used to be kept on Level 2 with the other beasts, but they were transferred to Level 5 because the wolves ''used to hunt down and eat the other beasts!'' Criminals with a bounty higher than 100 million are kept here, and Magellan sends Luffy here after having captured him.

* '''Level 5.5: New Kama Land''': Not an actual level, but a hidden and secret sublevel carved long ago. It's inhabited by the okamas and ruled by "Queen" Ivankov. After the latter escapes with Luffy, Bentham becomes the new "Queen".

* '''Level 6: Infinite Hell''': The lowest level, reserved exclusively for criminals so strong and/or dangerous that they are basically "erased" from history, to the point that even this level's existence is considered a legend. The prisoners are fed and left alone, letting them die out of boredom, such as Shiki who, after a while, was almost DrivenToSuicide. Ace used to be here before being moved for his execution. Jimbei, Crocodile, and some of the new Blackbeard Pirates used to be here too. After his defeat and capture, Doflamingo is being kept here.

[[folder:Tropes Pertaining to Impel Down]]

* TheAlcatraz: It's the ''One Piece'' world's best prison. The only ones able to escape are Shiki, who had to sacrifice his own legs, and Luffy, with the help of many strong allies and lots of luck.
* BoringButPractical: A literal example in Level 6. The prisoners there are so tough that every torture method available is ineffective on them. So how does one punish someone that strong? The answer is: you don't. You just feed them and leave them alone until they want to die out of sheer boredom.
* CirclesOfHell: While Impel Down is not exactly hell, it's based off the Inferno from ''Literature/TheDivineComedy'', which codifies this trope, and every level has a different torture.
* HellholePrison: This prison is one of the worst portrayed in fiction, with only the toughest prisoners able to endure the terrifying tortures without going crazy or wishing to die. Considering how some of the staff members are dressed like devils and the levels are like CirclesOfHell, it's the closest it can get to a literal example of the trope.
* {{Homage}}: The prison is built like {{Hell}} in ''Literature/TheDivineComedy''.

[[/folder]]

!!Staff

[[folder:In General]]
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: As with every organization in ''One Piece'', the higher the rank of a guard, the stronger they are. The nameless mooks are all beaten easily by Luffy, while the warden, Magellan, proves too strong for Luffy to handle, even with the combined effort with other prisoners. The under-warden, Hannyabal, is also a very competent fighter, despite lacking any Devil Fruit ability. This gets subverted after [[spoiler:Magellan gets demoted while Hannyabal becomes the new warden]].
* DevilsPitchfork: The WeaponOfChoice of Impel Down's mooks is a trident, to reflect its Dante's inferno-esque inspiration.
* GenderBender: One of the staff is a recipient of Ivankov's ability. Surprisingly, they react well to their "true form" and help Ivankov as a result.
* GoodIsNotNice: Despite their affiliation with the World Government, most of the wardens are actually good people who want to protect the citizens from the criminals they imprison. However, they have no qualms with inflicting inhuman and cruel tortures on the prisoners.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: While the torture they inflict on the prisoners is horrifying, said prisoners are all wanted criminals who have probably committed heinous crimes.
* PuttingOnTheReich: The commanding guards and wardens are typically dressed in this fashion (except for Hannyabal), especially Magellan, right down to the arm band. Despite this, they're, for the most part, good guys and have good intentions.

->''"Never forget that I have both the power ''and'' the authority to execute all of you right here and now!"''
-->--'''Chapter 531'''

Magellan is the chief warden of Impel Down, the most feared and impenetrable prison/dungeon in the ''One Piece'' world. As such, he is a very imposing man with a very stern, business-like manner. Even when things get out of hand, he keeps up his professional manner, inspiring hope and admiration in much of the prison staff. Forms a bit of an OddCouple with Under-Warden Hannyabal, a CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass [[TheStarscream Starscream]], who, despite his eccentricities, Magellan endorses as his successor.\\\

Magellan has the power of poison, granted by the Venom-Venom Fruit (''Doku Doku no Mi''), and is consequently one of the most dangerous fighters in the story. He can cover himself and others with poisonous corrosive slime, and emit poison gas (which he's able to breathe without issue). The effects of his poison can manifest themselves in a variety of ways, from blinding tear gas to paralyzing neurotoxins. As a side effect, Magellan has taken a liking to actually ingesting poison, and while it can't kill him, it gives him severe bowel troubles, forcing him to spend much of his time relieving himself. After the Impel Down arc, he gets beaten to an inch of his life and has to be hospitalized and sedated to prevent him from killing himself. He eventually gets over it, but is still demoted to Under Warden during the TimeSkip, much to his dismay.
----
* AcidAttack: His Devil Fruit grants him power over multiple kinds of [[PoisonousPerson poison]], including a corrosive one, which Magellan drips from his horns to fight.
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: Parodied. Thanks to his Devil Fruit, he can eat poisonous food. However, they give him diarrhea, so he's busy on the toilet most of the time.
* AdvancingBossOfDoom: Once Magellan gets involved, most of the focus is on staying ahead of him because very few people in Impel Down can seriously challenge him. Once he enters his Venom Demon form, though, he becomes this in truth: a rapidly-advancing wall of red sludge so toxic it can even infect stone, much less any hapless prisoner who failed to outrun it.
* ArcVillain: He's the primary antagonist of the Impel Down arc, and never appears following that arc, but he's by no means [[HeroAntagonist an actual villain.]]
* BadBoss: Subverted with Hannyabal. Despite their bickering, they get along occasionally. Played straight with other subordinates as he usually breathes poison gas on them to keep them in line. Also, he doesn't show any hesitation of using his poison attacks while they are in the vicinity.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: You'd think there wouldn't be much "good" to do with a power that revolves entirely around fatally poisoning mass amounts of people. But Magellan put it to good use by becoming the warden of world's toughest prison, where most of the inmates certainly deserve a good poison bath.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: His horns are detachable and can be worn on his hands to function as this. He can also infuse them with his poison to make them more lethal.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Spends very little time actually doing his job on account of being occupied in the bathroom suffering intense bouts of diarrhea for several hours a day, but God help you if you have to actually face him. A slight subversion in his case though, as when Shiryu was still Head Jailer (replaced by Sadi Chan), Shiryu was actually considered more dangerous because he was actually around more often, and likely too competent for his job for his own good.
* CombatPragmatist: He has his silly moments, but during fights, he does ''not'' screw around. When he runs across Blackbeard's crew, he doesn't even bother asking why they're there without official permission; he just [[OneHitKill one-shots]] them all on sight.
* {{Claustrophobia}}: Inverted. It was hinted he had the opposite problem — agoraphobia, the fear of open spaces — making him well-suited to his job as warden of the facility.
* CurbStompBattle: Magellan is one of the strongest fighters of the One Piece world and prefers doing a quick job rather than playing with his foes, therefore he tends to use the Doku-Doku fruit powers to immediately poison his enemies and making them unable to fight back. His fight with Luffy doesn't last long and the latter only manages to hit Magellan once before succumbing to the poison and later, during the riot at Impel Down,the Blackbeard Pirates invade the prison and Magellan just bathes the whole crew in poison and leaves them writhing in pain while he continues to pursue the jailbreakers. The second time around, though, [[ItOnlyWorksOnce he's not so lucky]] as Blackbeard has gathered stronger allies from the Level 6.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique[=/=]PoisonIsCorrosive: His ultimate poison ''Kinjite'' (literally "Foul Hand"), which he uses in Hell's Judgement technique, which he's forbidden from using because it can potentially ''melt all of Impel Down''.
* DeadlyGas: He can make not only liquid poison, which is his most used type, but also poisonous gas.
* DemotedToDragon: Almost literally. [[spoiler: After failing to prevent the escape of many prisoners, led by Luffy, he gets demoted to Under Warden during the timeskip]].
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Dresses like an SS officer and uses poison gas, yet, he's an heroic character.
* TheDreaded: Most characters react to the idea of Magellan appearing the same way -- with an OhCrap. The only people that ever try to pick a fight with him are usually over confident, unaware of his strength, or TooDumbToLive.
* DrivenToSuicide: He's so distraught about allowing so many prisoners to escape Impel Down that he has to be sedated to keep him from killing himself in shame.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Although Magellan is very cruel towards the prisoners, former Chief Jailer Shiryu's rampages across Impel Down killing off prisoners had made Magellan less than pleased, particularly as he had no damn reason for doing so, and Magellan was forced to imprison Shiryu in Level 6 as he was far too dangerous to be ignored.
* GodzillaThreshold: Faced with a prison riot, an escape attempt involving countless Level 6 prisoners, ''and'' the sudden appearance of Blackbeard, he authorizes Shiryu's temporary release to deal with the latter. He really, ''really'' doesn't want to resort to that, but considering Impel Down is being attacked by no less than three separate groups at once (two of which containing some ''serious'' heavy hitters), he's kind of out of options. Too bad for him, Shiryu ends up betraying him to join the Blackbeard Pirates.
* GoodIsNotNice: His methods are rather brutal and can hurt his own subordinates, but his main goal is to keep those dangerous criminals locked up so they don't harm innocent civilians.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: After getting in another fight with the Blackbeard Pirates and their newly acquired members, he gets beaten badly and is left with some scars on his face, which are still present after two years.
* HeroAntagonist: He's brutal, but still fair and reasonable; the only reason that he's even coming into conflict with Luffy is because Luffy's goals (freeing Ace) just so happens to conflict with his own (keeping order and making sure that a bunch of incredibly powerful and dangerous criminals stay locked up). If it wasn't for the conflict of interest, he'd be more than happy to live and let live.
* HornAttack: Played With. His "horns" are fake and he can detach them to wear them on his hands as weapons.
* HornedHumanoid: Subverted. He has a pair of long horns that help give him a demonic appearance, but they're actually fake.
* ImplacableMan: In the second half of the Impel Down arc, he pursues Luffy and the escaped prisoners without leaving them any time to breathe, and becomes an almost-literal AdvancingWallOfDoom after activating his deadliest poison. No one wants to fight him, anyone who gets caught in his poison is left for dead so more people don't die, and by the last chapter of the arc, only a ''very'' small percentage of the original escapees manage to get out alive. However, later subverted off-screen. Turns out he gets beaten to within an inch of his life after Luffy has left, by the Blackbeard Pirates and their new recruits.
* ItsPersonal: At first he only tries to stop Luffy from escaping because it's his job. But when he finds Hannyabal beaten badly from his fight with Luffy, that gives him ''more'' motivation to stop Luffy.
* TheJuggernaut: Let's be clear about something. The entire second half of the Impel Down Arc basically amounts to Luffy and the gang ''running away from this guy''. And that's not even going into when he uses Venom Demon: after that, Mr. 3's wax (ElementalRockPaperScissors which is immune to his normal poison) can barely slow him down for a few moments.
* LargeAndInCharge: He's both tall ''and'' really broad and is the chief warden of the prison. [[spoiler: After the time-skip, he's the under warden.]]
* MadeOfIron: ''And how!'' Even by the standards of this show, Magellan is ridiculously durable. The man's tanked everything from bullets to cannon fire and it doesn't seem to even faze him. Even Luffy's Gear Second attacks, which could seriously injure a normal opponent and send them flying through a room, can at the most bring him to his knees. The only ''real'' wound he suffers is a blow to the forehead from his fight with Ivankov, not that it did much. This record gets broken when he is beaten by the Blackbeard Pirates, who give him some scars on his face.
* MakeAnExampleOfThem: If you fuck with him in front of other prisoners, he will reduce you to sludge on the spot to show them what happens when you piss him off. It's quite good at helping him maintain order because no one wants to be the next "example".
* MightyGlacier: Never moves at a pace faster than a brisk walk. He moves faster using Venom Road, but he only does so to reach places he can't get to via walking. Still, he's hard to take down and it's better avoid his attacks at all costs.
* MyGreatestFailure: He's so broken after having failed to prevent the escape that he has to be sedated to prevent him from committing suicide, and doesn't protest when he's demoted from chief warden.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: His fight with Luffy where he nearly killed him resulted in Luffy gaining poison resistance so high he is practically immune to it, allowing him to fight later enemies that also use poisons, like Caeser.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Luffy tried to do what had always worked until then and thought being TheDeterminator would let him blow right past Magellan. It didn't end well for him.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: He does ''not'' fuck around. If he thinks you're a threat, he doesn't even bother asking any questions and just goes straight for the kill.
* ObviouslyEvil: Subverted; despite his appearance and what not, his goals and motives are only technically evil in the sense that [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality they conflict with Luffy's]]. If anything, he's more of a KnightTemplar, in that anyone who comes to his prison must be a terrible criminal. For the most part, he's correct. However, he does work for the [[TautologicalTemplar World Government]], which means that people they deem as too dangerous, which could be even as simple as political dissidents, could land there.
* OneManArmy: He could kill every single person in Impel Down if he wanted to. He has also [[OneHitKill one-shotting]] the Blackbeard Pirates ''simultaneously''.
* TheParalyzer: He can generate all kinds of poisons, including paralytics.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: He could potentially destroy all of Impel Down if he decided to.
* PoisonousPerson: His Devil Fruit allows him to produce and control different types of poisons, from toxic gas to paralytic neurotoxins and all the way to hyper-corrosive acid.
* PunchClockVillain: The most straight up example here. He is merely doing his job and keeping dangerous inmates in prison. He only comes into conflict with Luffy because the latter is attempting to break Ace out of jail, something he cannot allow.
* PurpleIsPowerful: His poison is a sickly purple looking colour and is a powerful paralysis-inducing toxin. Said power also makes Magellan one of the most dangerous person of the One Piece world.
* RankUp: Inverted. Because he couldn't prevent the mass escape, he goes from chief warden to under-warden.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Magellan's eyes becomes red when he summons his ''Kinjite'' poison, his most dangerous technique that, if hold up for too long, can destroy Impel Down itself.
* RedRightHand: Subverted. Despite his demonic appearance and Bulgori-like hands, he is only evil in the fact that he's working for the World Government, and is just trying to keep bloodthirsty criminals behind bars.
* ShapingYourAttacks: Hydra is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin hydra-shaped]] while Venom Demon: Judgemant of Hell takes the shape of a huge skull-faced demon.
* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Subverted. While his overall strength is unclear in comparison to characters such as the shichibukai or the Admirals, he still has one of the best combat performances of any ArcVillain. He's one of the few villains in the series to hand Luffy a complete and utter defeat without any rematch thus far. Later enemies in the New World, especially those that use poison, are less of a threat due to Luffy's own experience with Magellan's poison.
* StoryBreakerPower: Magellan has the Toxin-Toxin Devil Fruit, one of the most effective Devil Fruits in the series. Everything about him, from his sweat, to his skin, to even his breath is all poisonous and he has different varieties from poison that acts like tears gas to poison that can make your skin melt. He can also generate massive waves of poison out of himself, create hydra heads of pure poison to attack people, and any contact with him or his attacks instantly poisons the target. His poison is so powerful that it can kill a person within minutes unless an antidote is administered. However, if you get hit by too many poisons, then you're too far gone to be cured and are sentenced to a slow and painful death. The worst part is even if you have some sort of ability that could block the poison, such as Mr 3's Wax-Wax Fruit, he can just make his poison so strong that it'll melt steel. Plus, he isn't even a Logia type, so he doesn't have any of the usual weaknesses of a Logia Devil Fruit user.
* SuperStrength: Even ''before'' he powers himself up with poisonous food, he's stronger than most men, given his huge size. Poisoned food, used to fuel his powers, cranks it up to superhuman levels.
* SuperpowerLottery: Magellan's ability to manipulate poison makes him a '''very''' deadly opponent. His ability to coat himself in a layer of poison makes it nigh impossible for opponents to fight him in close combat without killing themselves. And if you try to run away, he has many ranged options such as Hydra, Venom Blowfish, or Venom Road. When he really means it, he can also use Hell's Judgement above. And even without his poison, Magellan himself is a hulking tank of a man who is ungodly tough to take down. With this kind of powerset, is it any wonder he's the warden of a maximum security prison?
* TechnicolorToxin: Usually purple, unless he gets mad. In that case, it turns red.
* TerrorHero: Well, not a hero by any means, but in the grand scheme of things, he's generally a morally good character whose take-no-shit attitude and tendency to go straight for the kill is designed to sow fear among prisoners to help make maintaining order easier. Given the fact that the prison holds some of the world's worst criminals and a breakout would spell disaster, this is not the worst approach to take.
* TouchOfDeath: Played Straight and Subverted, in a way. If you're a normal person (as in not a {{Determinator}}), you'll die if he touches you all right; but it won't be painless and instantaneous. You will ''suffer''.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: His favorite food is the poison soup (which he can eat because of his [[PoisonousPerson Devil Fruit]]) and he likes it so much that he eats it despite knowing that it will cause him to spend hours on the toilet.
* TranquilFury: Spends the second half of the arc boiling mad from everything that's happening but keeping it all under the surface.
* TykeBomb: [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/onepiece/images/9/94/Magellan_as_a_Child.png/revision/latest?cb=20140304154412 A SBS reveals]] that he had his Poison abilities since he was a small child, [[UsedToBeASweetKid but fortunately]] Magellan just didn't have the disposition to effectively use it then. [[PowerIncontinence He also didn't]] have a very happy childhood because of it, either.
* TopHeavyGuy: He's a large, imposing man but his legs are really tiny.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Despite his arguments with [[TheStarscream Hannyabal]], Magellan is noticeably upset when he finds him defeated by Luffy and states that he will not accept anyone else as his successor if he dies.
* WalkingWasteland: The Venom Demon technique melts everything around Magellan.
* WardensAreEvil: Subverted. With his demonic appearance, Nazi-esque uniform, poison powers, and ruthless disposition, many prisoners naturally fear him. But he really means well, and he makes a point that the prisoners have to be confined, lest they would terrorize the populace. He's also disgusted at the murderous antics of his former colleague Shiryu, so much so that he ordered him to be imprisoned.
* WingedHumanoid: Has two large wings on his back to go with his overall devil motif. Subverted as they're actually fake.
* WingsDoNothing: And apparently they are just a part of his uniform.
* YouShallNotPass: He's determined to not let '''''anyone''''' out of Impel Down.

[[folder:Hannyabal]]
!!Chief Warden Hannyabal
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Tetsuo Goto (JP), Brad Jackson (EN)
!!!'''Age:''' 33 (Pre-Timeskip), 35 (Post-Timeskip)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 526 (Manga), Episode 422 (Anime)

[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hannyabal_anime.png]]

->''"Welcome to ''my'' Impel Down. Oh, excuse me. I said "my" by mistake. I'm getting ahead of myself. I am Hannyabal, the Under Warden... for now."''
-->--'''Chapter 526'''

Hannyabal is the overly ambitious under-warden of Impel Down. He appears to be a tall man with a pot-belly and a massive chin, wearing a pharaoh's headress. His continuous {{Freudian Slip}}s about his desire to become Warden and silly antics often gain the ire of Magellan, who either {{Dope Slap}}s him, or outright poisons him in anger. Despite his finding him irritating and too ambitious, Magellan considers Hannyabal as his only worthy successor to Chief Warden of Impel Down.\\\

As of the timeskip, he achieves his dream as he is now the Warden of Impel Down with former Jail Head, Domino, as his number two.
-----
* BadassNormal: Just because he doesn't have a Devil Fruit power, doesn't mean he can't kick ass. He'd just rather not.
* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: Discussed. While fighting Luffy to stop his escape, Hannyabal says that pirates are nothing but scum who, if they were to leave Impel Down, would terrorize the good citizens. While Hannyabal is not completely wrong, he says it to the good-natured Luffy. Right after his speech, Blackbeard knocks him out and tells him that the world is not just black and white.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite acting like a moron and getting yelled by Magellan most of the time, [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking he's the Under-Warden for a good reason]]. [[spoiler: And during the timeskip he even gets [[RankUp promoted]].]]
* {{Determinator}}: Arguably rivaling Luffy himself. Luffy beats him to a bloody pulp and is in every way the better fighter, but Hannyabal refuses to go down. Blackbeard has to do a sneak attack to put an end to it.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Apparently something of a weakness of his. It's not just that he gets tricked by Mr. 2 disguised as Nami, it's that a flashback to his first day on the job has pretty much the ''exact same thing'' happening to him at the hands of a [[TheVamp Vamp]].
* DoubleWeapon: His naginata Bloodsucker (Kessui), which looks more like two [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana merged at the hilts]].
* FlamingSword: His naginata's blade can be set on fire.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Long before he serves any purpose but ButtMonkey PluckyComicRelief, some of the guards comments on his ability to [[UnflinchingWalk walk through the superheated and supercooled floors of Impel Down with no ill effects]]. Implying he's not just an idiot.
* FormerlyFit: Not that he was the epitome of fitness before but, after the timeskip, he has gotten much fatter.
* {{Gonk}}: He has an actual "hannya" face and his body has a beer belly.
* HeroAntagonist: Arguably even moreso than Magellan. While he's an overly ambitious and duplicitous man, he lacks (at least overtly) the sadistic tendencies of his coworkers, and his real motivations are to protect the innocent people on the outside.
* HiddenDepths: Despite outwardly being a goofy [[TheStarscream Starscream]] among the Impel Down staff, when the chips are down he reveals himself to be a {{Determinator}} on the level of, or perhaps even more than ''Luffy'', all to protect the innocent people of the world from the prisoners of Impel Down.
* HornedHumanoid: Unlike Magellan, whose horns appear to be fake, Hannyabal's horns are real and give him a demonic appearance, in line with the prison's Dante's Inferno theme.
* LanternJawOfJustice: Exaggerated -- that long chin of his is a hint of his hidden sense of justice.
* LargeAndInCharge: He's not as big as Magellan, but is bigger than an average human and he's the second highest authority in the prison. Post TimeSkip, he's [[spoiler: in charge of Impel Down!]]
* LaughablyEvil: Nearly every time you see this guy, he's acting or saying something that's funny. This abruptly stopped when he faced off against Luffy.
* LargeHam: His loud personality and his starscream attitude has been consistent since he was very young.
* LetsGetDangerous: Throughout the Impel Down arc, he's basically doing nothing so Magellan would be removed as Warden. When it becomes clear that Luffy might actually succeed, he puts his foot down and holds the line.
* MeaningfulName: His name is Hannyabal and has an actual "hannya" face.
* MrViceGuy: Aside from his Starscream tendencies, he's a man willing to do anything to protect the innocent from the criminals.
* NumberTwo: To Magellan, he's the under-warden, and Magellan himself considers Hannyabal the only one worthy of succeeding him. [[spoiler: He gets promoted after the TimeSkip.]]
* ObviouslyEvil: Subverted. He certainly looks evil, and is willing to sell out his superior for a promotion, but his motivation is to protect the innocent.
* PunnyName: Hannyabal is a combination of both Hannya, the death mask his face resembles, and Hannibal.
* PassingTheTorch: Despite not liking how he wants to take his place, Magellan says that Hannyabal is the only one worthy to succeed him. [[spoiler: After the timeskip, he really becomes the new chief warden.]]
* RankUp: After the timeskip, he actually ''does'' become [[spoiler:the new chief warden of Impel Down]].
* TheStarscream: Openly declares his ambition to become chief, often in ''[[BerserkButton earshot of Magellan]]''. Despite this, Magellan considers him to be a worthy successor.
* ThemeMusicPowerUp: Parodied. When Hannyabal uses his flaming naginata technique, he has guards in the background playing drums and singing a song to cheer him on.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Hannyabal never wears a shirt. This is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by the guards when Mr. 2 posed as him, that even in the extreme temperatures of Level 4 and 5, Hannyabal would never wear anything but his pants to show how badass he is. Unfortunately, given his potbelly, it also doubles as FanDisservice. Averted post-timeskip, as he wears a complete uniform after he [[spoiler: becomes chief warden.]]
* YouShallNotPass: When push comes to shove, Hannyabal will not let criminals escape from Impel Down, even if he runs out of strength. When Luffy is about to escape, Hannyabal remains still and block his path, explaining he doesn't want violent criminals to run free and attack innocent people. However, Blackbeard puts a stop to Hannyabal's resistance.

!!Head Jailer Domino
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/NaomiShindo; (JP), Haley Esposito (EN)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 526 (Manga), Episode 422 (Anime)

[[quoteright:145:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/domino_anime.png]]

->''"Come with me. We'd better hurry."''
-->--'''Chapter 526'''

One of Impel Down's high officers. She's serious and strict, to the point of scolding Magellan, [[NoBadassToHisValet the chief warden]], for spending too much time in the washroom.\\\

She greets Hancock during her visit in the prison (actually a way for Luffy to sneak in) until she's petrified by her Devil Fruit power. After going back to normal, she doesn't remember being turned into stone and accomanies Boa Hancock to Magellan's office.\\\

During the timeskip she's promoted to head jailer, a post left vacant after Shilew's arrest.
----
* AmbiguouslyGay: Domino, like most people, is affected by Boa Hancock's [[TakenForGranite power]], implying she does find her attractive. However, Boa's charm is shown multiple times to [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer hit even the women]].
* CoatCape: Wears one to indicate her promotion to head jailer.
* CommissarCap: Has one to complete her Nazi-esque uniform.
* CoolShades: Wears a pair of red-jaded glasses.
* FailedASpotCheck: If she had done a decent body search, she would've realized Luffy was hiding in Hancock's coat.
* InformedAbility: To be a head jailer, she has to be one of the prison staff's strongest members, but she's never seen in action since Boa Hancock quickly petrifies her and Domino spends most of the arc as a statue.
* MeaningfulName: Domino comes from ''dominus'', which refers to a person who has control over others, a fitting name for a high-ranked individual.
* [[MrExposition Ms. Exposition]]: When Hancock visits Impel Down, Domino explains her (and the audience) many details about the prison, like the "baptism" of boiling water every prisoner has to endure, the denden mushi security and the newest Level 6 prisoners.
* NiceGirl: Domino is remarkably polite to Hancock during her visit to Impel Down, even assuring her that the full body search and Sea-Prism Stone Handcuffs where done simply out of keeping up the prison's reputation and not out of mistrust. Given that most of the Impel Down are PunchClockVillains it's likely she like this on her off hours too.
* NoBadassToHisValet: It doesn't matter if Magellan is the prison's highest authority and can kill her at any time if he wants to, she still scolds him for wasting too much time in the washroom.
* NonActionGuy: Domino is the only high-ranked officer who doesn't display any fighting skills. In fairness, she didn't have the time to show them since Boa Hancock petrify her before she could do anything.
* PassionateSportsGirl: In a drawing of her when she was a kid, she's playing football.
* PeekABangs: On top of wearing shades, her hair covers her right eye. She has had this haircut since she was a kid.
* TakenForGranite: Before she can spot Luffy, Boa Hancock turns her into stone with her Mero-Mero Fruit power. She gets back to normal but doesn't remember it.
* WhipItGood: She's carries a whip, though she's never seen using it.

!!!'''Age:''' 21 (Pre-Timeskip), 23 (Post-Timeskip)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 531 (Manga), Episode 432 (Anime)

[[quoteright:285:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sadi_anime.png]]

->''"Mmm... I love the sound of screaming!"''
-->--'''Chapter 531'''

The Security Chief of Impel Down and the one in command of the Jailer Beasts. She's a sadistic person who enjoys hearing the screams of her enemies (and even of her allies) and, fittingly for her sadist personality, she has a pitchfork with a concealed whip as a weapon of choice. She has a crush on Magellan.\\\

When Luffy infiltrates Impel Down, she sends Minotaurus to stop him and is later assigned to guard Level 5's entrance. After Luffy, Ivankov, Jimbei, and Crocodile escape from Level 6 and defeat the Jailer Beasts, she angrily attacks them and fights Ivankov, who manages to tie her up using her own whip.
----
* AffectionateNickname: Invoked, as she wants to be called Sadi-Chan. In the English dub she demands to be called 'Mistress Sadie', which is fitting given her dominatrix nature.
* AntiHero: A rare antagonistic example. While she's guarding a prison full of evil pirates, she enjoys whipping the prisoners a bit too much.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: She's in command of the Jailer Beasts and is said to be stronger than all four of them combined.
* BadBoss: She's fond of [[CorporalPunishment whipping]] the Jailer Beasts as a punishment for their failures.
* BadassCape: She's said to be stronger than the four Jailer Beasts combined and wears a large white cape.
* BadassNormal: She doesn't have any Devil Fruit but is much stronger than the Jailer Beasts, each of whom has an awakened Zoan Devil Fruit power.
* BareYourMidriff: Hardly any of the midriff is covered.
* BondageIsBad: Downplayed. Despite being a sadist who enjoys torturing others for her own amusement, she is an officer working for the World Government.
* CombatSadomasochist: As if her appearance doesn't make it clear. She also loves hearing the screams of her enemies in combat.
* DesignatedGirlFight: Invoked by her opponent who, upon realizing he's facing a woman, [[GenderBender uses his powers to switch gender.]]
* DevilsPitchfork: Like most of the guards, her WeaponOfChoice is a pitchfork (which conceals a whip) to go with her demonic appearance.
* {{Dominatrix}}: She gets so sexually excited from the screams of others that she becomes a parody of it.
* TheDreaded: Not much by the prisoners but by the Jailer Beasts, her subordinates, each of whom is deathly afraid of making her angry. Given her habit of whipping them, it's pretty reasonable.
* FemmeFatalons: Her long nails aptly hint at her twisted sexual sadist self.
* FragileSpeedster: She manages to dodge most of Ivankov's attacks while destroying the walls, but once she loses her weapon, she goes down quickly.
* HornyDevil: Her stripperific outfit (which makes her look like a succubus), combined with her sadist and dominatrix-like personality give off this vibe.
* LadyInRed: Sadi is a sadistic woman dressed on a red BDSM-themed suit to go with a more devilish appearance. Downplayed in the anime, as it was changed to hot pink.
* MamaBear: Despite being abusive towards them, she gets really angry if someone hurts the Jailer Beasts.
* MeaningfulName: Her name is, very fittingly, short for "sadist".
* MixAndMatchWeapon: Her weapon is a pitchfork which conceals a whip, to combine her succubus-appearance and her dominatrix personality.
* MsFanservice: She's a dominatrix who wears a very skimpy devil outfit and gets sexually excited when she makes the others scream by whipping them.
* SmugSuper: She refuse the marines' help, claiming Impel Down's staff is enough to catch Luffy. She's right, as Magellan captures and sends him to Level 5, but then he escapes along with some really strong prisoners...
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit leaves most of her skin exposed.
* TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: She demands to be addressed as "Mistress" Sadi. If you don't, you shall be introduced to her whip.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While most of the staff genuinely believe they're in the right, Sadi-chan just seems to be in it to torture people.
* {{Underboobs}}: Her outfit doesn't cover the lower half of her breasts.
* UnwillingSuspension: Ironically enough for a dominatrix, Ivankov defeats her and ties her to the ceiling with her own whip until Magellan rescues her.
* VerbalTic: She often stops mid-speech to say "... mmmmm..." before continuing it.
* WhipItGood: To go with her HornyDevil/dominatrix theme, her main weapon is a [[MixAndMatchWeapon pitchfork which can turn into a lash]], and is strong enough to smash a large stone bridge.

!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazuyaNakai (JP), Creator/OrionPitts (EN)
!!!'''Age:''' 16 (Pre-Timeskip), 18 (Post-Timeskip)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 530 (Manga), Episode 431 (Anime)

[[quoteright:340:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saldeath_anime.png]]

->''"Give up. Resistance is futile. You're trapped in an undersea escape-proof prison. You never had a chance. But you should be glad that I captured you, because the floor under this is patrolled by four roaming jailer beasts."''
-->--'''Chapter 530'''

One of the chief guards of Impel Down and the one in command of the Blugori of Level 1. He's a calm and level-headed person and is probably the least brutal of all the high ranked officers. He doesn't fight on his own but controls the Blugori using his flute.\\\

During Luffy's infiltration, he tries to stop him in Level 3, but since the Blugori are easily defeated by him, he's sent to quell the riot in Level 2. After Luffy escapes again, Hannyabal sends him to Level 4 but he and his Blugori are defeated by Ivankov with a single blow.\\\

After the timeskip, he has grown proportionately taller.
----
* AffablyEvil: While he's more of a HeroAntagonist, he's the least brutal of all the staff, to the point that he says Luffy and his allies are lucky to be captured by him.
* HatOfAuthority: Wears a white horned hat with a black skull on it. The skull is the same on the Blugoris' faces, as a visual hint that he controls them.
* IGotBigger: After the timeskip, Saldeath goes from tiny to willowy.
* ImprobableAge: He's a high-ranking warden in the worlds most important prison at only 16/18.
* InstrumentOfMurder: Saldeath's pitchfork is actually a flute, used to control the Blugori.
* LargeAndInCharge: Inverted. Despite being one of the high ranked officers, he's the shortest person in all the prison. Played straight after his growth spurt over the time-skip.
* NonActionGuy: He doesn't fight himself, instead controls the Blugori with his flute to attack the enemy.
* PunnyName: In Japanese, his name sounds like ''Saru Desu'', which means "I am a monkey". He doesn't like when someone mishears his name, like Luffy.
* TeensAreShort: Exaggerated. Saldeath is 16 years old and he's downright diminutive. Subverted following the timeskip, where he grows to 7'1" at 18 years old.
* WingedHumanoid: Subverted. He has a pair of black bat-like wings, but they're probably part of his uniform and [[WingsDoNothing cannot be used for flight]].

!!!Other Guards and Beasts

[[folder:The Jailer Beasts]]
!!The Jailer Beasts
->''"These jailer beasts are cold-blooded monsters that treat human beings like trash!"''
-->--'''Bentham (chapter 532)'''

Four (five after the timeskip) strong guards under Sadi's authority. They have all eaten an unknown Zoan Devil Fruit and have awakened their power, giving them a strong healing factor that allows them to recover quickly.\\\

Despite their dumb-looking appearance, they're all brutal guards who would gladly smash any rioting prisoners with their weapon, though they also have a big fear of [[BadBoss Sadi]].\\\

Due to their great stamina and healing factor, they face Luffy and his allies multiple times (especially Minotaurus), but they always get defeated and, once Jimbei, Crocodile and Ivankov join Luffy in the escape, they basically stop being a threat.\\\

After the time-skip, a fifth jailer beast, Minochihuahua, joins them.

!!Tropes pertaining to all of them:
* {{Animorphism}}: Each ate a Zoan Fruit and awoke its power, making them much thougher than usual. It borders with InformedAbility because they're always seen in their hybrid form, and it's confirmed that they've eaten a Devil Fruit because it's explained by Crocodile.
* BareYourMidriff: A variety. Minotaurus's, Minozebra's and Minokoala's fur only covers part of their abdomens, leaving the middle completely uncovered.
* BeastMan: They are Zoan users and so far they've only been seen in their hybrid form, which makes them look more beast than human.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Don't be fooled by their goofy appearance, they're actual brutal guards and among the strongest in the prison.
* BlackBeadEyes: With the exception of Minozebra, they have little black dots as eyes.
* BloodKnight: Possibly because of their Zoan Devil Fruits, they are all ruthless and like brutalizing their enemies.
* TheDreaded: Because of their blood lust, they're the most feared individuals in the prison, right behind Magellan.
* {{Gonk}}: They all have silly body proportions, BlackBeadEyes (save for Minozebra) and snot that drips from their noses. [[BewareTheSillyOnes It's not a good reason to underestimate them.]]
* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Aside from Minorinocheros, who wears overalls, and, later, Minochihuahua, they only wear a pair of shorts.
* ImplacableMan: Thanks to their "Awakened" Devil Fruit powers, they can heal from heavy injuries in a short period of time and it doesn't matter how much Luffy and his allies beat them, after a short while they are back to fight them again.
* LightningBruiser: They're all incredibly fast and strong and, if that isn't enough, they recover quickly and after a short while they can fight again.
* PsychopathicManchild: Their intelligence has apparently been affected by their powers and regressed to a point between animalistic and merely infantile, although they're smart enough to clearly understand Sadi's orders. They're still one of the biggest threats in the entire prison, and even enjoy their job in their own way.
* ThemeNaming: Their names are their animal Devil Fruit with the prefix "Mino": ''Mino''taurus, ''Mino''koala, ''Mino''rhinoceros, ''Mino''zebra, and ''Mino''chihuahua.
* TopHeavyGuy: Save for Minochihuahua, who's fairly proportioned, the others have a large upper body whith short and tiny legs.
* WardensAreEvil: They are all violent and often torture the prisoners. Of course, said prisoners are mostly [[AssholeVictim people who deserve it.]]

The Blue Gorillas, nicknamed Blugori, are animals so strong that they hunt Sea Kings for food. They mainly reside on Level 1, where they chase the prisoners, but can move to the other levels as well, though they aren't much of a threat to higher-ranked prisoners. They are under Saldeath's command, who controls them using a flute.
----
* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: They're known as Blue Gorillas exactly because their fur is blue.
* AnAxeToGrind: Their weapon of choice is a giant double-headed axe.
* EliteMook: Downplayed. They are much stronger than the common guards, and are tough enough to take care of the Level 1 prisoners, but when put against Luffy or some stronger prisoner, they're ineffective.
* TheFaceless: Their cloaks cover the upper sides of their bodies. How they can see while wearing them is a mistery.
* InformedSpecies: Their faces are hidden by their cloaks and the rest of their bodies don't exactly resemble a gorilla.
* KillerGorilla: They're gorillas so strong they hunt ''Sea Kings'' and are vicious prison guards.

[[caption-width-right:350:A Manticore]]

Level 2, known as "Wild Beast Hell", is filled with dangerous monsters that will chase and eat every prisoner they encounter. The monsters in question are:

* '''The Sphinx''': A large lion-like creature with a human face and feathers. It's the strongest monster of the level, and is tough enough to destroy the floor under him.
* '''The Basilisk''': A big chicken with a reptilian face and a constantly hungry expression.
* '''The Manticores''': Lions with human faces. Ferocious creatures who devour even the prey's bones. They can even speak human language, but not understand it. They therefore simply repeat random words they hear from the prisoners.
* '''The Puzzle Scorpions''': Giant poisonous scorpions which can combine themselves to become a giant centipede.
----
* BasiliskAndCockatrice: The second strongest monster is a large basilisk (that, ironically, is a giant chicken monster that looks more like a cockatrice). However, he doesn't have the petrifying gaze.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: No one of them looks remotely scary (save the Basilisk, and even then he looks more crazy than intimidating), yet they are all strong monsters.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: The puzzle scorpions. While they don't look scary, they're actually quite big and dangerous, and, if combined, they become an even larger centipede.
* ConservationOfNinjutsu: There are many manticores and puzzle scorpions, but are all small fries for Luffy. The basilisk and the sphinx, on the other hand, are quite tougher opponents, and there is only one of each of them.
* {{Gonk}}: Each manticore has a different human face, but every single one is... goofy.
* KingMook: The Sphinx is the leader of Level 2 monsters and is the strongest among them.
* MixAndMatchCritters: The manticores are basically lions with a human face, the Sphinx is similar to a giant winged manticore and the Basilisk can be described as a chicken with a reptile face.
* {{Mooks}}: At least for Luffy, the manticores are easy to deal with. Not so much for Buggy and the Level 1 and 2 prisoners.
* OurManticoresAreSpinier: These are human-headed lions that are led by a sphinx.
* OurSphinxesAreDifferent: The Sphinx is the KingMook of the Manticores of the Level 2: Beast Hell of [[HellholePrison Impel Down]]. It has a goofy-looking, almost apelike face, a giant lion body (as big as a house), and feathers along its forelimbs and shoulders.
* RunningGag: Involving the Manticores's habit of yelling names of underwears and the Sphinx's habit of shouting casual names of [[strike:noodles]] pasta since they can learn the words they hear from the prisoners but don't understand their meanings.
* ScaryScorpions: The puzzle scorpions. Despite their appearance, they're actually deadly poisonous and can combine themselves together to become a [[CreepyCentipedes giant centipede.]]
* SuperPersistentPredator: The basilisk keeps chasing Luffy and Buggy for a long while until he's stopped by Luffy's gear third punch.

A pack of vicious wolves that reside in Level 5. It used to be in Level 2 but, since the wolves are so voracious that they used to prey on the other beasts too, it has been moved.
----
* AxCrazy: As if their constant maniac expression isn't enough, these are voracious predators that would hunt anything.
* InformedAbility: They are said to be so dangerous that if they were in Level 2, they would promptly eat the other beasts, including the Sphinx. However, both Luffy and Bon-Clay defeat plenty of them with much more ease than the Sphinx. However, they are more clever than any of the beasts in Level 2 like when they dig below Galdino's wax cage after realizing they can't break it.

* AssholeVictim: They suffer many kinds of torture in prison, which become progressively worse for every level, and all of them lead to an unpleasant death. However, if they are in prison it means they must have committed serious crimes.
* BreakTheHaughty: Many have had their spirits broken by the terrible tortures they've been forced to endure, and used to be criminals in the past.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: It doesn't matter on which level the prisoner goes, they ''will'' suffer a terrible death, be it by blood loss, being EatenAlive by monsters, starved in a desert, boiled alive, frozen or by pure boredom.
* LiterallyShatteredLives: The prisoners in Level 5 suffer a slow and painful version of this. The temperature is so low, they suffer from frostbite and their bodies slowly fall apart.
* StewedAlive: Prisoners in Level 4 are forced to carry giant logs to keep the flames of the boiling blood pool going, but some end up falling in said boiling blood.

The followers of Emporio Ivankov, they were once prisoners of the Great Gaol of Impel Down that were "spirited away", while actually they were just freed by Ivankov or had found a way to reach him. They resides in the hidden Level 5.5, built by a prisoner with tunneling Devil Fruit powers where they constantly party and keep an eye on the situation in the prison. After Luffy's outburst, they evade with their leader. After the Marineford saga, they finally reach Kamabakka Kingdom, where they joined the local Okama subjects.\\\

For Emporio Ivankov himself and Inazuma see their entries on the [[Characters/OnePieceRevolutionaryArmy Revolutionary Army]] page. For Caroline see his entry on the [[Characters/OnePieceAnimeOnly Anime-Only]] page.
-----
* AttractiveBentGender: Apparently, when a male Newkama is turned in a female he instantly becomes a hottie, it's more glaring when nearly all the males are quite gonky.
* BadassCrew: They're all martial arts masters in Okama Kenpo and Newkama Kenpo, you better believe they're badass.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Think a bunch of gender-switching, easy-going, partying guys is harmless? Think again. The same goes for the inhabitants of Momoiro.
* ChefOfIron: All the high-level masters of Okama and Newkama Kenpo can use the "Attack Cuisine", which can strengthen the human body from inside. [[spoiler:Sanji is the only person who managed to master it without becoming an Okama.]]
* DistaffCounterpart: The Newkama are a sort of counterpart to the [[AmazonBrigade Kuja Pirates]].
* FanDisservice: While at least the Newkama in Impel Down can be quite pleasant, the crossdressers of Kamabakka are [[{{Gonk}} straight]] awful.
* GenderBender: Basically any single member may have or not change sex at least once, courtesy of Ivankov's Horm-Horm powers. The Newkama philosophy is that a person should be whatever makes them happiest, whether it's a man, woman, or okama.
* {{Gonk}}: Many of the male Newkama are plain ugly. Ditto for "Caroline" and all the other Okama on Kamabakka Kingdom.
* HumiliationConga: One of the members: he was once a prince whose father was turned into a Okama after visiting Ivankov's Kingdom, then he lost everything, became a pirate and was imprisoned. To cup it all, when he tried to take revenge on Iva he had his own bullet reflected back at him and then was turned into a woman.
* IChooseToStay: A large portion of the Newkama decided to stay in Level 5.5, rather than breaking out. [[spoiler: Bon-chan ends up becoming their new "queen".]]
%%* LargeAndInCharge: Caroline is quite big.
* RealMenWearPink: And dresses, skirts and bloomers too. Momoiro literally means "Pink".
* RefugeInAudacity: Pretty much everything they do are made crazy and over-the-top as much as possible.
* SeashellBra: One of the ''male'' Newkama sports one.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Justified as the poor sop was just turned into a naked chick in front of a whole room of people. Also the Okama tends to have "girlish-sounding" voices.
* StockingFiller: All the Newkama wear these.
* TrainingFromHell: The "Bride Training" required for the Attack Cuisine. [[spoiler: Sanji managed to skip it in exchange for another, harder training.]]
* WholesomeCrossdresser: Averted by the Impel Down denizens. The people of Kamabakka may look more like CreepyCrossdresser type, but they're actually of a really good nature.
* ZergRush: While escaping from Impel Down.

[[header:Impel Down]]
[[quoteright:125:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/impel_down_portrait.png]]

->''"You're nothing but pirates and rebels who became notorious for your wicked deeds!! Were you allowed to roam the seas again, law-abiding citizens would live in such fear for their loved ones that they couldn't sleep at night!! This prison was constructed as a warehouse for scum like you so that decent people could live in peace!! If you were to get out, you'd terrorize the world!! But I'm not going to allow that to happen!!"''
--> '''Hannyabal (Chapter 543)'''

Also known as the "Underwater Prison" or the [[TheAlcatraz "Great Prison"]], Impel Down is the World Government's prison for all kinds of criminals and pirates. Imagine a fusion between Alcatraz and the "Inferno" of Literature/TheDivineComedy and you get the idea.\\\

The prison is divided into six levels, each signified by a number. The higher the number, the deeper the level extends underwater. The bounties of the prisoners scale linearly with the prison level. Each level has its own methods of torture:

* '''Level 1: Crimson Hell''': The prisoners are forced to run from the guards and the blue gorillas through a forest made of trees with leaves as sharp as razors. For this reason, the leaves, stained by the prisoners' blood, appear red. If one wants to avoid the torture, there's a giant hole that leads to [[FromBadToWorse Level 2.]] Buggy used to be in this level, and avoided torture thanks to his Devil Fruit ability.

* '''Level 2: Beast Hell''': The halls are inhabited by dangerous beasts like manticores, giant scorpions, and a basilisk who chase and devour any prisoner they encounter, all while a large sphinx guards the exit. For this reason, the prisoners prefer to stay in the jail cells. Buggy says that all the prisoners on this level have a bounty higher than his (15 million berries). Galdino used to be kept on this level.

* '''Level 3: Starvation Hell''': This level is hot and has a desert-like terrain. The prisoners are kept in a near death state, fed just enough water and food to keep them from starving. All the criminals with a bounty higher than 50 million berries are kept here. Bentham also used to be here, despite having a bounty of 32 million.

* '''Level 4: Inferno Hell''': This level is even hotter than Level 3 (whose heat in fact comes from the level below) due to the presence of a large pool with boiling blood. Here, the prisoners are constantly working supplying wood logs in the pool or under torture. Daz Bones used to be kept in this level.

* '''Level 5: Frozen Hell''': In contrast to the level above, this one is a desolate tundra where prisoners either die because of the freezing cold (which is so intense the prisoners lose pieces of their bodies due to frostbite) or starvation (due to the food becoming frozen and inedible). In this level there is also the wolf unit that hunts down the prisoners. The wolves used to be kept on Level 2 with the other beasts, but they were transferred to Level 5 because the wolves ''used to hunt down and eat the other beasts!'' Criminals with a bounty higher than 100 million are kept here, and Magellan sends Luffy here after having captured him.

* '''Level 5.5: New Kama Land''': Not an actual level, but a hidden and secret sublevel carved long ago. It's inhabited by the okamas and ruled by "Queen" Ivankov. After the latter escapes with Luffy, Bentham becomes the new "Queen".

* '''Level 6: Infinite Hell''': The lowest level, reserved exclusively for criminals so strong and/or dangerous that they are basically "erased" from history, to the point that even this level's existence is considered a legend. The prisoners are fed and left alone, letting them die out of boredom, such as Shiki who, after a while, was almost DrivenToSuicide. Ace used to be here before being moved for his execution. Jimbei, Crocodile, and some of the new Blackbeard Pirates used to be here too. After his defeat and capture, Doflamingo is being kept here.

[[folder:Tropes Pertaining to Impel Down]]

* TheAlcatraz: It's the ''One Piece'' world's best prison. The only ones able to escape are Shiki, who had to sacrifice his own legs, and Luffy, with the help of many strong allies and lots of luck.
* BoringButPractical: A literal example in Level 6. The prisoners there are so tough that every torture method available is ineffective on them. So how does one punish someone that strong? The answer is: you don't. You just feed them and leave them alone until they want to die out of sheer boredom.
* CirclesOfHell: While Impel Down is not exactly hell, it's based off the Inferno from ''Literature/TheDivineComedy'', which codifies this trope, and every level has a different torture.
* HellholePrison: This prison is one of the worst portrayed in fiction, with only the toughest prisoners able to endure the terrifying tortures without going crazy or wishing to die. Considering how some of the staff members are dressed like devils and the levels are like CirclesOfHell, it's the closest it can get to a literal example of the trope.
* {{Homage}}: The prison is built like {{Hell}} in ''Literature/TheDivineComedy''.

[[/folder]]

!!Staff

[[folder:In General]]
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: As with every organization in ''One Piece'', the higher the rank of a guard, the stronger they are. The nameless mooks are all beaten easily by Luffy, while the warden, Magellan, proves too strong for Luffy to handle, even with the combined effort with other prisoners. The under-warden, Hannyabal, is also a very competent fighter, despite lacking any Devil Fruit ability. This gets subverted after [[spoiler:Magellan gets demoted while Hannyabal becomes the new warden]].
* DevilsPitchfork: The WeaponOfChoice of Impel Down's mooks is a trident, to reflect its Dante's inferno-esque inspiration.
* GenderBender: One of the staff is a recipient of Ivankov's ability. Surprisingly, they react well to their "true form" and help Ivankov as a result.
* GoodIsNotNice: Despite their affiliation with the World Government, most of the wardens are actually good people who want to protect the citizens from the criminals they imprison. However, they have no qualms with inflicting inhuman and cruel tortures on the prisoners.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: While the torture they inflict on the prisoners is horrifying, said prisoners are all wanted criminals who have probably committed heinous crimes.
* PuttingOnTheReich: The commanding guards and wardens are typically dressed in this fashion (except for Hannyabal), especially Magellan, right down to the arm band. Despite this, they're, for the most part, good guys and have good intentions.

->''"Never forget that I have both the power ''and'' the authority to execute all of you right here and now!"''
-->--'''Chapter 531'''

Magellan is the chief warden of Impel Down, the most feared and impenetrable prison/dungeon in the ''One Piece'' world. As such, he is a very imposing man with a very stern, business-like manner. Even when things get out of hand, he keeps up his professional manner, inspiring hope and admiration in much of the prison staff. Forms a bit of an OddCouple with Under-Warden Hannyabal, a CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass [[TheStarscream Starscream]], who, despite his eccentricities, Magellan endorses as his successor.\\\

Magellan has the power of poison, granted by the Venom-Venom Fruit (''Doku Doku no Mi''), and is consequently one of the most dangerous fighters in the story. He can cover himself and others with poisonous corrosive slime, and emit poison gas (which he's able to breathe without issue). The effects of his poison can manifest themselves in a variety of ways, from blinding tear gas to paralyzing neurotoxins. As a side effect, Magellan has taken a liking to actually ingesting poison, and while it can't kill him, it gives him severe bowel troubles, forcing him to spend much of his time relieving himself. After the Impel Down arc, he gets beaten to an inch of his life and has to be hospitalized and sedated to prevent him from killing himself. He eventually gets over it, but is still demoted to Under Warden during the TimeSkip, much to his dismay.
----
* AcidAttack: His Devil Fruit grants him power over multiple kinds of [[PoisonousPerson poison]], including a corrosive one, which Magellan drips from his horns to fight.
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: Parodied. Thanks to his Devil Fruit, he can eat poisonous food. However, they give him diarrhea, so he's busy on the toilet most of the time.
* AdvancingBossOfDoom: Once Magellan gets involved, most of the focus is on staying ahead of him because very few people in Impel Down can seriously challenge him. Once he enters his Venom Demon form, though, he becomes this in truth: a rapidly-advancing wall of red sludge so toxic it can even infect stone, much less any hapless prisoner who failed to outrun it.
* ArcVillain: He's the primary antagonist of the Impel Down arc, and never appears following that arc, but he's by no means [[HeroAntagonist an actual villain.]]
* BadBoss: Subverted with Hannyabal. Despite their bickering, they get along occasionally. Played straight with other subordinates as he usually breathes poison gas on them to keep them in line. Also, he doesn't show any hesitation of using his poison attacks while they are in the vicinity.
* BadPowersGoodPeople: You'd think there wouldn't be much "good" to do with a power that revolves entirely around fatally poisoning mass amounts of people. But Magellan put it to good use by becoming the warden of world's toughest prison, where most of the inmates certainly deserve a good poison bath.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: His horns are detachable and can be worn on his hands to function as this. He can also infuse them with his poison to make them more lethal.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Spends very little time actually doing his job on account of being occupied in the bathroom suffering intense bouts of diarrhea for several hours a day, but God help you if you have to actually face him. A slight subversion in his case though, as when Shiryu was still Head Jailer (replaced by Sadi Chan), Shiryu was actually considered more dangerous because he was actually around more often, and likely too competent for his job for his own good.
* CombatPragmatist: He has his silly moments, but during fights, he does ''not'' screw around. When he runs across Blackbeard's crew, he doesn't even bother asking why they're there without official permission; he just [[OneHitKill one-shots]] them all on sight.
* {{Claustrophobia}}: Inverted. It was hinted he had the opposite problem — agoraphobia, the fear of open spaces — making him well-suited to his job as warden of the facility.
* CurbStompBattle: Magellan is one of the strongest fighters of the One Piece world and prefers doing a quick job rather than playing with his foes, therefore he tends to use the Doku-Doku fruit powers to immediately poison his enemies and making them unable to fight back. His fight with Luffy doesn't last long and the latter only manages to hit Magellan once before succumbing to the poison and later, during the riot at Impel Down,the Blackbeard Pirates invade the prison and Magellan just bathes the whole crew in poison and leaves them writhing in pain while he continues to pursue the jailbreakers. The second time around, though, [[ItOnlyWorksOnce he's not so lucky]] as Blackbeard has gathered stronger allies from the Level 6.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique[=/=]PoisonIsCorrosive: His ultimate poison ''Kinjite'' (literally "Foul Hand"), which he uses in Hell's Judgement technique, which he's forbidden from using because it can potentially ''melt all of Impel Down''.
* DeadlyGas: He can make not only liquid poison, which is his most used type, but also poisonous gas.
* DemotedToDragon: Almost literally. [[spoiler: After failing to prevent the escape of many prisoners, led by Luffy, he gets demoted to Under Warden during the timeskip]].
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Dresses like an SS officer and uses poison gas, yet, he's an heroic character.
* TheDreaded: Most characters react to the idea of Magellan appearing the same way -- with an OhCrap. The only people that ever try to pick a fight with him are usually over confident, unaware of his strength, or TooDumbToLive.
* DrivenToSuicide: He's so distraught about allowing so many prisoners to escape Impel Down that he has to be sedated to keep him from killing himself in shame.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Although Magellan is very cruel towards the prisoners, former Chief Jailer Shiryu's rampages across Impel Down killing off prisoners had made Magellan less than pleased, particularly as he had no damn reason for doing so, and Magellan was forced to imprison Shiryu in Level 6 as he was far too dangerous to be ignored.
* GodzillaThreshold: Faced with a prison riot, an escape attempt involving countless Level 6 prisoners, ''and'' the sudden appearance of Blackbeard, he authorizes Shiryu's temporary release to deal with the latter. He really, ''really'' doesn't want to resort to that, but considering Impel Down is being attacked by no less than three separate groups at once (two of which containing some ''serious'' heavy hitters), he's kind of out of options. Too bad for him, Shiryu ends up betraying him to join the Blackbeard Pirates.
* GoodIsNotNice: His methods are rather brutal and can hurt his own subordinates, but his main goal is to keep those dangerous criminals locked up so they don't harm innocent civilians.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: After getting in another fight with the Blackbeard Pirates and their newly acquired members, he gets beaten badly and is left with some scars on his face, which are still present after two years.
* HeroAntagonist: He's brutal, but still fair and reasonable; the only reason that he's even coming into conflict with Luffy is because Luffy's goals (freeing Ace) just so happens to conflict with his own (keeping order and making sure that a bunch of incredibly powerful and dangerous criminals stay locked up). If it wasn't for the conflict of interest, he'd be more than happy to live and let live.
* HornAttack: Played With. His "horns" are fake and he can detach them to wear them on his hands as weapons.
* HornedHumanoid: Subverted. He has a pair of long horns that help give him a demonic appearance, but they're actually fake.
* ImplacableMan: In the second half of the Impel Down arc, he pursues Luffy and the escaped prisoners without leaving them any time to breathe, and becomes an almost-literal AdvancingWallOfDoom after activating his deadliest poison. No one wants to fight him, anyone who gets caught in his poison is left for dead so more people don't die, and by the last chapter of the arc, only a ''very'' small percentage of the original escapees manage to get out alive. However, later subverted off-screen. Turns out he gets beaten to within an inch of his life after Luffy has left, by the Blackbeard Pirates and their new recruits.
* ItsPersonal: At first he only tries to stop Luffy from escaping because it's his job. But when he finds Hannyabal beaten badly from his fight with Luffy, that gives him ''more'' motivation to stop Luffy.
* TheJuggernaut: Let's be clear about something. The entire second half of the Impel Down Arc basically amounts to Luffy and the gang ''running away from this guy''. And that's not even going into when he uses Venom Demon: after that, Mr. 3's wax (ElementalRockPaperScissors which is immune to his normal poison) can barely slow him down for a few moments.
* LargeAndInCharge: He's both tall ''and'' really broad and is the chief warden of the prison. [[spoiler: After the time-skip, he's the under warden.]]
* MadeOfIron: ''And how!'' Even by the standards of this show, Magellan is ridiculously durable. The man's tanked everything from bullets to cannon fire and it doesn't seem to even faze him. Even Luffy's Gear Second attacks, which could seriously injure a normal opponent and send them flying through a room, can at the most bring him to his knees. The only ''real'' wound he suffers is a blow to the forehead from his fight with Ivankov, not that it did much. This record gets broken when he is beaten by the Blackbeard Pirates, who give him some scars on his face.
* MakeAnExampleOfThem: If you fuck with him in front of other prisoners, he will reduce you to sludge on the spot to show them what happens when you piss him off. It's quite good at helping him maintain order because no one wants to be the next "example".
* MightyGlacier: Never moves at a pace faster than a brisk walk. He moves faster using Venom Road, but he only does so to reach places he can't get to via walking. Still, he's hard to take down and it's better avoid his attacks at all costs.
* MyGreatestFailure: He's so broken after having failed to prevent the escape that he has to be sedated to prevent him from committing suicide, and doesn't protest when he's demoted from chief warden.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: His fight with Luffy where he nearly killed him resulted in Luffy gaining poison resistance so high he is practically immune to it, allowing him to fight later enemies that also use poisons, like Caeser.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Luffy tried to do what had always worked until then and thought being TheDeterminator would let him blow right past Magellan. It didn't end well for him.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: He does ''not'' fuck around. If he thinks you're a threat, he doesn't even bother asking any questions and just goes straight for the kill.
* ObviouslyEvil: Subverted; despite his appearance and what not, his goals and motives are only technically evil in the sense that [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality they conflict with Luffy's]]. If anything, he's more of a KnightTemplar, in that anyone who comes to his prison must be a terrible criminal. For the most part, he's correct. However, he does work for the [[TautologicalTemplar World Government]], which means that people they deem as too dangerous, which could be even as simple as political dissidents, could land there.
* OneManArmy: He could kill every single person in Impel Down if he wanted to. He has also [[OneHitKill one-shotting]] the Blackbeard Pirates ''simultaneously''.
* TheParalyzer: He can generate all kinds of poisons, including paralytics.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: He could potentially destroy all of Impel Down if he decided to.
* PoisonousPerson: His Devil Fruit allows him to produce and control different types of poisons, from toxic gas to paralytic neurotoxins and all the way to hyper-corrosive acid.
* PunchClockVillain: The most straight up example here. He is merely doing his job and keeping dangerous inmates in prison. He only comes into conflict with Luffy because the latter is attempting to break Ace out of jail, something he cannot allow.
* PurpleIsPowerful: His poison is a sickly purple looking colour and is a powerful paralysis-inducing toxin. Said power also makes Magellan one of the most dangerous person of the One Piece world.
* RankUp: Inverted. Because he couldn't prevent the mass escape, he goes from chief warden to under-warden.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Magellan's eyes becomes red when he summons his ''Kinjite'' poison, his most dangerous technique that, if hold up for too long, can destroy Impel Down itself.
* RedRightHand: Subverted. Despite his demonic appearance and Bulgori-like hands, he is only evil in the fact that he's working for the World Government, and is just trying to keep bloodthirsty criminals behind bars.
* ShapingYourAttacks: Hydra is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin hydra-shaped]] while Venom Demon: Judgemant of Hell takes the shape of a huge skull-faced demon.
* SortingAlgorithmOfEvil: Subverted. While his overall strength is unclear in comparison to characters such as the shichibukai or the Admirals, he still has one of the best combat performances of any ArcVillain. He's one of the few villains in the series to hand Luffy a complete and utter defeat without any rematch thus far. Later enemies in the New World, especially those that use poison, are less of a threat due to Luffy's own experience with Magellan's poison.
* StoryBreakerPower: Magellan has the Toxin-Toxin Devil Fruit, one of the most effective Devil Fruits in the series. Everything about him, from his sweat, to his skin, to even his breath is all poisonous and he has different varieties from poison that acts like tears gas to poison that can make your skin melt. He can also generate massive waves of poison out of himself, create hydra heads of pure poison to attack people, and any contact with him or his attacks instantly poisons the target. His poison is so powerful that it can kill a person within minutes unless an antidote is administered. However, if you get hit by too many poisons, then you're too far gone to be cured and are sentenced to a slow and painful death. The worst part is even if you have some sort of ability that could block the poison, such as Mr 3's Wax-Wax Fruit, he can just make his poison so strong that it'll melt steel. Plus, he isn't even a Logia type, so he doesn't have any of the usual weaknesses of a Logia Devil Fruit user.
* SuperStrength: Even ''before'' he powers himself up with poisonous food, he's stronger than most men, given his huge size. Poisoned food, used to fuel his powers, cranks it up to superhuman levels.
* SuperpowerLottery: Magellan's ability to manipulate poison makes him a '''very''' deadly opponent. His ability to coat himself in a layer of poison makes it nigh impossible for opponents to fight him in close combat without killing themselves. And if you try to run away, he has many ranged options such as Hydra, Venom Blowfish, or Venom Road. When he really means it, he can also use Hell's Judgement above. And even without his poison, Magellan himself is a hulking tank of a man who is ungodly tough to take down. With this kind of powerset, is it any wonder he's the warden of a maximum security prison?
* TechnicolorToxin: Usually purple, unless he gets mad. In that case, it turns red.
* TerrorHero: Well, not a hero by any means, but in the grand scheme of things, he's generally a morally good character whose take-no-shit attitude and tendency to go straight for the kill is designed to sow fear among prisoners to help make maintaining order easier. Given the fact that the prison holds some of the world's worst criminals and a breakout would spell disaster, this is not the worst approach to take.
* TouchOfDeath: Played Straight and Subverted, in a way. If you're a normal person (as in not a {{Determinator}}), you'll die if he touches you all right; but it won't be painless and instantaneous. You will ''suffer''.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: His favorite food is the poison soup (which he can eat because of his [[PoisonousPerson Devil Fruit]]) and he likes it so much that he eats it despite knowing that it will cause him to spend hours on the toilet.
* TranquilFury: Spends the second half of the arc boiling mad from everything that's happening but keeping it all under the surface.
* TykeBomb: [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/onepiece/images/9/94/Magellan_as_a_Child.png/revision/latest?cb=20140304154412 A SBS reveals]] that he had his Poison abilities since he was a small child, [[UsedToBeASweetKid but fortunately]] Magellan just didn't have the disposition to effectively use it then. [[PowerIncontinence He also didn't]] have a very happy childhood because of it, either.
* TopHeavyGuy: He's a large, imposing man but his legs are really tiny.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Despite his arguments with [[TheStarscream Hannyabal]], Magellan is noticeably upset when he finds him defeated by Luffy and states that he will not accept anyone else as his successor if he dies.
* WalkingWasteland: The Venom Demon technique melts everything around Magellan.
* WardensAreEvil: Subverted. With his demonic appearance, Nazi-esque uniform, poison powers, and ruthless disposition, many prisoners naturally fear him. But he really means well, and he makes a point that the prisoners have to be confined, lest they would terrorize the populace. He's also disgusted at the murderous antics of his former colleague Shiryu, so much so that he ordered him to be imprisoned.
* WingedHumanoid: Has two large wings on his back to go with his overall devil motif. Subverted as they're actually fake.
* WingsDoNothing: And apparently they are just a part of his uniform.
* YouShallNotPass: He's determined to not let '''''anyone''''' out of Impel Down.

[[folder:Hannyabal]]
!!Chief Warden Hannyabal
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Tetsuo Goto (JP), Brad Jackson (EN)
!!!'''Age:''' 33 (Pre-Timeskip), 35 (Post-Timeskip)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 526 (Manga), Episode 422 (Anime)

[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hannyabal_anime.png]]

->''"Welcome to ''my'' Impel Down. Oh, excuse me. I said "my" by mistake. I'm getting ahead of myself. I am Hannyabal, the Under Warden... for now."''
-->--'''Chapter 526'''

Hannyabal is the overly ambitious under-warden of Impel Down. He appears to be a tall man with a pot-belly and a massive chin, wearing a pharaoh's headress. His continuous {{Freudian Slip}}s about his desire to become Warden and silly antics often gain the ire of Magellan, who either {{Dope Slap}}s him, or outright poisons him in anger. Despite his finding him irritating and too ambitious, Magellan considers Hannyabal as his only worthy successor to Chief Warden of Impel Down.\\\

As of the timeskip, he achieves his dream as he is now the Warden of Impel Down with former Jail Head, Domino, as his number two.
-----
* BadassNormal: Just because he doesn't have a Devil Fruit power, doesn't mean he can't kick ass. He'd just rather not.
* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: Discussed. While fighting Luffy to stop his escape, Hannyabal says that pirates are nothing but scum who, if they were to leave Impel Down, would terrorize the good citizens. While Hannyabal is not completely wrong, he says it to the good-natured Luffy. Right after his speech, Blackbeard knocks him out and tells him that the world is not just black and white.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite acting like a moron and getting yelled by Magellan most of the time, [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking he's the Under-Warden for a good reason]]. [[spoiler: And during the timeskip he even gets [[RankUp promoted]].]]
* {{Determinator}}: Arguably rivaling Luffy himself. Luffy beats him to a bloody pulp and is in every way the better fighter, but Hannyabal refuses to go down. Blackbeard has to do a sneak attack to put an end to it.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Apparently something of a weakness of his. It's not just that he gets tricked by Mr. 2 disguised as Nami, it's that a flashback to his first day on the job has pretty much the ''exact same thing'' happening to him at the hands of a [[TheVamp Vamp]].
* DoubleWeapon: His naginata Bloodsucker (Kessui), which looks more like two [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana merged at the hilts]].
* FlamingSword: His naginata's blade can be set on fire.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Long before he serves any purpose but ButtMonkey PluckyComicRelief, some of the guards comments on his ability to [[UnflinchingWalk walk through the superheated and supercooled floors of Impel Down with no ill effects]]. Implying he's not just an idiot.
* FormerlyFit: Not that he was the epitome of fitness before but, after the timeskip, he has gotten much fatter.
* {{Gonk}}: He has an actual "hannya" face and his body has a beer belly.
* HeroAntagonist: Arguably even moreso than Magellan. While he's an overly ambitious and duplicitous man, he lacks (at least overtly) the sadistic tendencies of his coworkers, and his real motivations are to protect the innocent people on the outside.
* HiddenDepths: Despite outwardly being a goofy [[TheStarscream Starscream]] among the Impel Down staff, when the chips are down he reveals himself to be a {{Determinator}} on the level of, or perhaps even more than ''Luffy'', all to protect the innocent people of the world from the prisoners of Impel Down.
* HornedHumanoid: Unlike Magellan, whose horns appear to be fake, Hannyabal's horns are real and give him a demonic appearance, in line with the prison's Dante's Inferno theme.
* LanternJawOfJustice: Exaggerated -- that long chin of his is a hint of his hidden sense of justice.
* LargeAndInCharge: He's not as big as Magellan, but is bigger than an average human and he's the second highest authority in the prison. Post TimeSkip, he's [[spoiler: in charge of Impel Down!]]
* LaughablyEvil: Nearly every time you see this guy, he's acting or saying something that's funny. This abruptly stopped when he faced off against Luffy.
* LargeHam: His loud personality and his starscream attitude has been consistent since he was very young.
* LetsGetDangerous: Throughout the Impel Down arc, he's basically doing nothing so Magellan would be removed as Warden. When it becomes clear that Luffy might actually succeed, he puts his foot down and holds the line.
* MeaningfulName: His name is Hannyabal and has an actual "hannya" face.
* MrViceGuy: Aside from his Starscream tendencies, he's a man willing to do anything to protect the innocent from the criminals.
* NumberTwo: To Magellan, he's the under-warden, and Magellan himself considers Hannyabal the only one worthy of succeeding him. [[spoiler: He gets promoted after the TimeSkip.]]
* ObviouslyEvil: Subverted. He certainly looks evil, and is willing to sell out his superior for a promotion, but his motivation is to protect the innocent.
* PunnyName: Hannyabal is a combination of both Hannya, the death mask his face resembles, and Hannibal.
* PassingTheTorch: Despite not liking how he wants to take his place, Magellan says that Hannyabal is the only one worthy to succeed him. [[spoiler: After the timeskip, he really becomes the new chief warden.]]
* RankUp: After the timeskip, he actually ''does'' become [[spoiler:the new chief warden of Impel Down]].
* TheStarscream: Openly declares his ambition to become chief, often in ''[[BerserkButton earshot of Magellan]]''. Despite this, Magellan considers him to be a worthy successor.
* ThemeMusicPowerUp: Parodied. When Hannyabal uses his flaming naginata technique, he has guards in the background playing drums and singing a song to cheer him on.
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Hannyabal never wears a shirt. This is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by the guards when Mr. 2 posed as him, that even in the extreme temperatures of Level 4 and 5, Hannyabal would never wear anything but his pants to show how badass he is. Unfortunately, given his potbelly, it also doubles as FanDisservice. Averted post-timeskip, as he wears a complete uniform after he [[spoiler: becomes chief warden.]]
* YouShallNotPass: When push comes to shove, Hannyabal will not let criminals escape from Impel Down, even if he runs out of strength. When Luffy is about to escape, Hannyabal remains still and block his path, explaining he doesn't want violent criminals to run free and attack innocent people. However, Blackbeard puts a stop to Hannyabal's resistance.

!!Head Jailer Domino
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/NaomiShindo; (JP), Haley Esposito (EN)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 526 (Manga), Episode 422 (Anime)

[[quoteright:145:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/domino_anime.png]]

->''"Come with me. We'd better hurry."''
-->--'''Chapter 526'''

One of Impel Down's high officers. She's serious and strict, to the point of scolding Magellan, [[NoBadassToHisValet the chief warden]], for spending too much time in the washroom.\\\

She greets Hancock during her visit in the prison (actually a way for Luffy to sneak in) until she's petrified by her Devil Fruit power. After going back to normal, she doesn't remember being turned into stone and accomanies Boa Hancock to Magellan's office.\\\

During the timeskip she's promoted to head jailer, a post left vacant after Shilew's arrest.
----
* AmbiguouslyGay: Domino, like most people, is affected by Boa Hancock's [[TakenForGranite power]], implying she does find her attractive. However, Boa's charm is shown multiple times to [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer hit even the women]].
* CoatCape: Wears one to indicate her promotion to head jailer.
* CommissarCap: Has one to complete her Nazi-esque uniform.
* CoolShades: Wears a pair of red-jaded glasses.
* FailedASpotCheck: If she had done a decent body search, she would've realized Luffy was hiding in Hancock's coat.
* InformedAbility: To be a head jailer, she has to be one of the prison staff's strongest members, but she's never seen in action since Boa Hancock quickly petrifies her and Domino spends most of the arc as a statue.
* MeaningfulName: Domino comes from ''dominus'', which refers to a person who has control over others, a fitting name for a high-ranked individual.
* [[MrExposition Ms. Exposition]]: When Hancock visits Impel Down, Domino explains her (and the audience) many details about the prison, like the "baptism" of boiling water every prisoner has to endure, the denden mushi security and the newest Level 6 prisoners.
* NiceGirl: Domino is remarkably polite to Hancock during her visit to Impel Down, even assuring her that the full body search and Sea-Prism Stone Handcuffs where done simply out of keeping up the prison's reputation and not out of mistrust. Given that most of the Impel Down are PunchClockVillains it's likely she like this on her off hours too.
* NoBadassToHisValet: It doesn't matter if Magellan is the prison's highest authority and can kill her at any time if he wants to, she still scolds him for wasting too much time in the washroom.
* NonActionGuy: Domino is the only high-ranked officer who doesn't display any fighting skills. In fairness, she didn't have the time to show them since Boa Hancock petrify her before she could do anything.
* PassionateSportsGirl: In a drawing of her when she was a kid, she's playing football.
* PeekABangs: On top of wearing shades, her hair covers her right eye. She has had this haircut since she was a kid.
* TakenForGranite: Before she can spot Luffy, Boa Hancock turns her into stone with her Mero-Mero Fruit power. She gets back to normal but doesn't remember it.
* WhipItGood: She's carries a whip, though she's never seen using it.

!!!'''Age:''' 21 (Pre-Timeskip), 23 (Post-Timeskip)
!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 531 (Manga), Episode 432 (Anime)

[[quoteright:285:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sadi_anime.png]]

->''"Mmm... I love the sound of screaming!"''
-->--'''Chapter 531'''

The Security Chief of Impel Down and the one in command of the Jailer Beasts. She's a sadistic person who enjoys hearing the screams of her enemies (and even of her allies) and, fittingly for her sadist personality, she has a pitchfork with a concealed whip as a weapon of choice. She has a crush on Magellan.\\\

When Luffy infiltrates Impel Down, she sends Minotaurus to stop him and is later assigned to guard Level 5's entrance. After Luffy, Ivankov, Jimbei, and Crocodile escape from Level 6 and defeat the Jailer Beasts, she angrily attacks them and fights Ivankov, who manages to tie her up using her own whip.
----
* AffectionateNickname: Invoked, as she wants to be called Sadi-Chan. In the English dub she demands to be called 'Mistress Sadie', which is fitting given her dominatrix nature.
* AntiHero: A rare antagonistic example. While she's guarding a prison full of evil pirates, she enjoys whipping the prisoners a bit too much.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: She's in command of the Jailer Beasts and is said to be stronger than all four of them combined.
* BadBoss: She's fond of [[CorporalPunishment whipping]] the Jailer Beasts as a punishment for their failures.
* BadassCape: She's said to be stronger than the four Jailer Beasts combined and wears a large white cape.
* BadassNormal: She doesn't have any Devil Fruit but is much stronger than the Jailer Beasts, each of whom has an awakened Zoan Devil Fruit power.
* BareYourMidriff: Hardly any of the midriff is covered.
* BondageIsBad: Downplayed. Despite being a sadist who enjoys torturing others for her own amusement, she is an officer working for the World Government.
* CombatSadomasochist: As if her appearance doesn't make it clear. She also loves hearing the screams of her enemies in combat.
* DesignatedGirlFight: Invoked by her opponent who, upon realizing he's facing a woman, [[GenderBender uses his powers to switch gender.]]
* DevilsPitchfork: Like most of the guards, her WeaponOfChoice is a pitchfork (which conceals a whip) to go with her demonic appearance.
* {{Dominatrix}}: She gets so sexually excited from the screams of others that she becomes a parody of it.
* TheDreaded: Not much by the prisoners but by the Jailer Beasts, her subordinates, each of whom is deathly afraid of making her angry. Given her habit of whipping them, it's pretty reasonable.
* FemmeFatalons: Her long nails aptly hint at her twisted sexual sadist self.
* FragileSpeedster: She manages to dodge most of Ivankov's attacks while destroying the walls, but once she loses her weapon, she goes down quickly.
* HornyDevil: Her stripperific outfit (which makes her look like a succubus), combined with her sadist and dominatrix-like personality give off this vibe.
* LadyInRed: Sadi is a sadistic woman dressed on a red BDSM-themed suit to go with a more devilish appearance. Downplayed in the anime, as it was changed to hot pink.
* MamaBear: Despite being abusive towards them, she gets really angry if someone hurts the Jailer Beasts.
* MeaningfulName: Her name is, very fittingly, short for "sadist".
* MixAndMatchWeapon: Her weapon is a pitchfork which conceals a whip, to combine her succubus-appearance and her dominatrix personality.
* MsFanservice: She's a dominatrix who wears a very skimpy devil outfit and gets sexually excited when she makes the others scream by whipping them.
* SmugSuper: She refuse the marines' help, claiming Impel Down's staff is enough to catch Luffy. She's right, as Magellan captures and sends him to Level 5, but then he escapes along with some really strong prisoners...
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit leaves most of her skin exposed.
* TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: She demands to be addressed as "Mistress" Sadi. If you don't, you shall be introduced to her whip.
* TokenEvilTeammate: While most of the staff genuinely believe they're in the right, Sadi-chan just seems to be in it to torture people.
* {{Underboobs}}: Her outfit doesn't cover the lower half of her breasts.
* UnwillingSuspension: Ironically enough for a dominatrix, Ivankov defeats her and ties her to the ceiling with her own whip until Magellan rescues her.
* VerbalTic: She often stops mid-speech to say "... mmmmm..." before continuing it.
* WhipItGood: To go with her HornyDevil/dominatrix theme, her main weapon is a [[MixAndMatchWeapon pitchfork which can turn into a lash]], and is strong enough to smash a large stone bridge.

[[quoteright:340:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/saldeath_anime.png]]

->''"Give up. Resistance is futile. You're trapped in an undersea escape-proof prison. You never had a chance. But you should be glad that I captured you, because the floor under this is patrolled by four roaming jailer beasts."''
-->--'''Chapter 530'''

One of the chief guards of Impel Down and the one in command of the Blugori of Level 1. He's a calm and level-headed person and is probably the least brutal of all the high ranked officers. He doesn't fight on his own but controls the Blugori using his flute.\\\

During Luffy's infiltration, he tries to stop him in Level 3, but since the Blugori are easily defeated by him, he's sent to quell the riot in Level 2. After Luffy escapes again, Hannyabal sends him to Level 4 but he and his Blugori are defeated by Ivankov with a single blow.\\\

After the timeskip, he has grown proportionately taller.
----
* AffablyEvil: While he's more of a HeroAntagonist, he's the least brutal of all the staff, to the point that he says Luffy and his allies are lucky to be captured by him.
* HatOfAuthority: Wears a white horned hat with a black skull on it. The skull is the same on the Blugoris' faces, as a visual hint that he controls them.
* IGotBigger: After the timeskip, Saldeath goes from tiny to willowy.
* ImprobableAge: He's a high-ranking warden in the worlds most important prison at only 16/18.
* InstrumentOfMurder: Saldeath's pitchfork is actually a flute, used to control the Blugori.
* LargeAndInCharge: Inverted. Despite being one of the high ranked officers, he's the shortest person in all the prison. Played straight after his growth spurt over the time-skip.
* NonActionGuy: He doesn't fight himself, instead controls the Blugori with his flute to attack the enemy.
* PunnyName: In Japanese, his name sounds like ''Saru Desu'', which means "I am a monkey". He doesn't like when someone mishears his name, like Luffy.
* TeensAreShort: Exaggerated. Saldeath is 16 years old and he's downright diminutive. Subverted following the timeskip, where he grows to 7'1" at 18 years old.
* WingedHumanoid: Subverted. He has a pair of black bat-like wings, but they're probably part of his uniform and [[WingsDoNothing cannot be used for flight]].

!!!Other Guards and Beasts

[[folder:The Jailer Beasts]]
!!The Jailer Beasts
->''"These jailer beasts are cold-blooded monsters that treat human beings like trash!"''
-->--'''Bentham (chapter 532)'''

Four (five after the timeskip) strong guards under Sadi's authority. They have all eaten an unknown Zoan Devil Fruit and have awakened their power, giving them a strong healing factor that allows them to recover quickly.\\\

Despite their dumb-looking appearance, they're all brutal guards who would gladly smash any rioting prisoners with their weapon, though they also have a big fear of [[BadBoss Sadi]].\\\

Due to their great stamina and healing factor, they face Luffy and his allies multiple times (especially Minotaurus), but they always get defeated and, once Jimbei, Crocodile and Ivankov join Luffy in the escape, they basically stop being a threat.\\\

After the time-skip, a fifth jailer beast, Minochihuahua, joins them.

!!Tropes pertaining to all of them:
* {{Animorphism}}: Each ate a Zoan Fruit and awoke its power, making them much thougher than usual. It borders with InformedAbility because they're always seen in their hybrid form, and it's confirmed that they've eaten a Devil Fruit because it's explained by Crocodile.
* BareYourMidriff: A variety. Minotaurus's, Minozebra's and Minokoala's fur only covers part of their abdomens, leaving the middle completely uncovered.
* BeastMan: They are Zoan users and so far they've only been seen in their hybrid form, which makes them look more beast than human.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Don't be fooled by their goofy appearance, they're actual brutal guards and among the strongest in the prison.
* BlackBeadEyes: With the exception of Minozebra, they have little black dots as eyes.
* BloodKnight: Possibly because of their Zoan Devil Fruits, they are all ruthless and like brutalizing their enemies.
* TheDreaded: Because of their blood lust, they're the most feared individuals in the prison, right behind Magellan.
* {{Gonk}}: They all have silly body proportions, BlackBeadEyes (save for Minozebra) and snot that drips from their noses. [[BewareTheSillyOnes It's not a good reason to underestimate them.]]
* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Aside from Minorinocheros, who wears overalls, and, later, Minochihuahua, they only wear a pair of shorts.
* ImplacableMan: Thanks to their "Awakened" Devil Fruit powers, they can heal from heavy injuries in a short period of time and it doesn't matter how much Luffy and his allies beat them, after a short while they are back to fight them again.
* LightningBruiser: They're all incredibly fast and strong and, if that isn't enough, they recover quickly and after a short while they can fight again.
* PsychopathicManchild: Their intelligence has apparently been affected by their powers and regressed to a point between animalistic and merely infantile, although they're smart enough to clearly understand Sadi's orders. They're still one of the biggest threats in the entire prison, and even enjoy their job in their own way.
* ThemeNaming: Their names are their animal Devil Fruit with the prefix "Mino": ''Mino''taurus, ''Mino''koala, ''Mino''rhinoceros, ''Mino''zebra, and ''Mino''chihuahua.
* TopHeavyGuy: Save for Minochihuahua, who's fairly proportioned, the others have a large upper body whith short and tiny legs.
* WardensAreEvil: They are all violent and often torture the prisoners. Of course, said prisoners are mostly [[AssholeVictim people who deserve it.]]

The Blue Gorillas, nicknamed Blugori, are animals so strong that they hunt Sea Kings for food. They mainly reside on Level 1, where they chase the prisoners, but can move to the other levels as well, though they aren't much of a threat to higher-ranked prisoners. They are under Saldeath's command, who controls them using a flute.
----
* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: They're known as Blue Gorillas exactly because their fur is blue.
* AnAxeToGrind: Their weapon of choice is a giant double-headed axe.
* EliteMook: Downplayed. They are much stronger than the common guards, and are tough enough to take care of the Level 1 prisoners, but when put against Luffy or some stronger prisoner, they're ineffective.
* TheFaceless: Their cloaks cover the upper sides of their bodies. How they can see while wearing them is a mistery.
* InformedSpecies: Their faces are hidden by their cloaks and the rest of their bodies don't exactly resemble a gorilla.
* KillerGorilla: They're gorillas so strong they hunt ''Sea Kings'' and are vicious prison guards.

[[caption-width-right:350:A Manticore]]

Level 2, known as "Wild Beast Hell", is filled with dangerous monsters that will chase and eat every prisoner they encounter. The monsters in question are:

* '''The Sphinx''': A large lion-like creature with a human face and feathers. It's the strongest monster of the level, and is tough enough to destroy the floor under him.
* '''The Basilisk''': A big chicken with a reptilian face and a constantly hungry expression.
* '''The Manticores''': Lions with human faces. Ferocious creatures who devour even the prey's bones. They can even speak human language, but not understand it. They therefore simply repeat random words they hear from the prisoners.
* '''The Puzzle Scorpions''': Giant poisonous scorpions which can combine themselves to become a giant centipede.
----
* BasiliskAndCockatrice: The second strongest monster is a large basilisk (that, ironically, is a giant chicken monster that looks more like a cockatrice). However, he doesn't have the petrifying gaze.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: No one of them looks remotely scary (save the Basilisk, and even then he looks more crazy than intimidating), yet they are all strong monsters.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: The puzzle scorpions. While they don't look scary, they're actually quite big and dangerous, and, if combined, they become an even larger centipede.
* ConservationOfNinjutsu: There are many manticores and puzzle scorpions, but are all small fries for Luffy. The basilisk and the sphinx, on the other hand, are quite tougher opponents, and there is only one of each of them.
* {{Gonk}}: Each manticore has a different human face, but every single one is... goofy.
* KingMook: The Sphinx is the leader of Level 2 monsters and is the strongest among them.
* MixAndMatchCritters: The manticores are basically lions with a human face, the Sphinx is similar to a giant winged manticore and the Basilisk can be described as a chicken with a reptile face.
* {{Mooks}}: At least for Luffy, the manticores are easy to deal with. Not so much for Buggy and the Level 1 and 2 prisoners.
* OurManticoresAreSpinier: These are human-headed lions that are led by a sphinx.
* OurSphinxesAreDifferent: The Sphinx is the KingMook of the Manticores of the Level 2: Beast Hell of [[HellholePrison Impel Down]]. It has a goofy-looking, almost apelike face, a giant lion body (as big as a house), and feathers along its forelimbs and shoulders.
* RunningGag: Involving the Manticores's habit of yelling names of underwears and the Sphinx's habit of shouting casual names of [[strike:noodles]] pasta since they can learn the words they hear from the prisoners but don't understand their meanings.
* ScaryScorpions: The puzzle scorpions. Despite their appearance, they're actually deadly poisonous and can combine themselves together to become a [[CreepyCentipedes giant centipede.]]
* SuperPersistentPredator: The basilisk keeps chasing Luffy and Buggy for a long while until he's stopped by Luffy's gear third punch.

A pack of vicious wolves that reside in Level 5. It used to be in Level 2 but, since the wolves are so voracious that they used to prey on the other beasts too, it has been moved.
----
* AxCrazy: As if their constant maniac expression isn't enough, these are voracious predators that would hunt anything.
* InformedAbility: They are said to be so dangerous that if they were in Level 2, they would promptly eat the other beasts, including the Sphinx. However, both Luffy and Bon-Clay defeat plenty of them with much more ease than the Sphinx. However, they are more clever than any of the beasts in Level 2 like when they dig below Galdino's wax cage after realizing they can't break it.

* AssholeVictim: They suffer many kinds of torture in prison, which become progressively worse for every level, and all of them lead to an unpleasant death. However, if they are in prison it means they must have committed serious crimes.
* BreakTheHaughty: Many have had their spirits broken by the terrible tortures they've been forced to endure, and used to be criminals in the past.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: It doesn't matter on which level the prisoner goes, they ''will'' suffer a terrible death, be it by blood loss, being EatenAlive by monsters, starved in a desert, boiled alive, frozen or by pure boredom.
* LiterallyShatteredLives: The prisoners in Level 5 suffer a slow and painful version of this. The temperature is so low, they suffer from frostbite and their bodies slowly fall apart.
* StewedAlive: Prisoners in Level 4 are forced to carry giant logs to keep the flames of the boiling blood pool going, but some end up falling in said boiling blood.

The followers of Emporio Ivankov, they were once prisoners of the Great Gaol of Impel Down that were "spirited away", while actually they were just freed by Ivankov or had found a way to reach him. They resides in the hidden Level 5.5, built by a prisoner with tunneling Devil Fruit powers where they constantly party and keep an eye on the situation in the prison. After Luffy's outburst, they evade with their leader. After the Marineford saga, they finally reach Kamabakka Kingdom, where they joined the local Okama subjects.\\\

For Emporio Ivankov himself and Inazuma see their entries on the [[Characters/OnePieceRevolutionaryArmy Revolutionary Army]] page. For Caroline see his entry on the [[Characters/OnePieceAnimeOnly Anime-Only]] page.
-----
* AttractiveBentGender: Apparently, when a male Newkama is turned in a female he instantly becomes a hottie, it's more glaring when nearly all the males are quite gonky.
* BadassCrew: They're all martial arts masters in Okama Kenpo and Newkama Kenpo, you better believe they're badass.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Think a bunch of gender-switching, easy-going, partying guys is harmless? Think again. The same goes for the inhabitants of Momoiro.
* ChefOfIron: All the high-level masters of Okama and Newkama Kenpo can use the "Attack Cuisine", which can strengthen the human body from inside. [[spoiler:Sanji is the only person who managed to master it without becoming an Okama.]]
* DistaffCounterpart: The Newkama are a sort of counterpart to the [[AmazonBrigade Kuja Pirates]].
* FanDisservice: While at least the Newkama in Impel Down can be quite pleasant, the crossdressers of Kamabakka are [[{{Gonk}} straight]] awful.
* GenderBender: Basically any single member may have or not change sex at least once, courtesy of Ivankov's Horm-Horm powers. The Newkama philosophy is that a person should be whatever makes them happiest, whether it's a man, woman, or okama.
* {{Gonk}}: Many of the male Newkama are plain ugly. Ditto for "Caroline" and all the other Okama on Kamabakka Kingdom.
* HumiliationConga: One of the members: he was once a prince whose father was turned into a Okama after visiting Ivankov's Kingdom, then he lost everything, became a pirate and was imprisoned. To cup it all, when he tried to take revenge on Iva he had his own bullet reflected back at him and then was turned into a woman.
* IChooseToStay: A large portion of the Newkama decided to stay in Level 5.5, rather than breaking out. [[spoiler: Bon-chan ends up becoming their new "queen".]]
%%* LargeAndInCharge: Caroline is quite big.
* RealMenWearPink: And dresses, skirts and bloomers too. Momoiro literally means "Pink".
* RefugeInAudacity: Pretty much everything they do are made crazy and over-the-top as much as possible.
* SeashellBra: One of the ''male'' Newkama sports one.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Justified as the poor sop was just turned into a naked chick in front of a whole room of people. Also the Okama tends to have "girlish-sounding" voices.
* StockingFiller: All the Newkama wear these.
* TrainingFromHell: The "Bride Training" required for the Attack Cuisine. [[spoiler: Sanji managed to skip it in exchange for another, harder training.]]

Subverted is not to confute a trope, is when a trope turns out to have never been played straight; present tense and trimming down to make it look less like a discussion


* InformedAbility: They are said to be so dangerous that if they were in Level 2, they would promptly eat the other beasts, including the Sphinx. However, both Luffy and Bon-Clay defeat plenty of them with much more ease than the Sphinx. Subverted in the fact, that they are much more clever than any of the beasts in Level 2 given that Buggy and Mr. 3 tried to outsmart them, like with the wax cell, they couldn't bite through it, so they dug under it.

Easily one of the greatest examples of TheStarscream in manga and anime, Hannyabal is the overly ambitious under-warden of Impel Down. He appears to be a tall man with a pot-belly and a massive chin, wearing a pharaoh's headress. His continuous {{Freudian Slip}}s about his desire to become Warden and silly antics often gain the ire of Magellan, who either {{Dope Slap}}s him, or outright poisons him in anger. Despite his finding him irritating and too ambitious, Magellan considers Hannyabal as his only worthy successor to Chief Warden of Impel Down.\\\
