Sengoku:"Damn it! I should've known better!" Sengoku was infuriated by what the reports said, a vice-admiral was out of commission, three Pacifistas, Vegapunk's bodyguard and Amiral were dead, mostly by the Curses pirates hand.
Not only that but he was the one who killed them, he allowed them to go after the Strawhats, fully knowing that there was a major threat in the same island.
He was blind to see the strength of the enemy and sent a weakened amiral to his deathbed. It cost him much more than what he expected. A war was arriving and losing so many key-factors just before it was the worst that could happen.
???:"What will we do now?" He heard a voice ask behind him, his old friend.

Sengoku:"...We will stick to the original plan, unfortunately we can't afford to delay it any further" he said frustrated.
Garp:"I hope you do know that, Whitebeard's strength isn't to be underestimated"
Sengoku:"I know..."
Garp:"Hey, why don't you replace Kizaru?" He grabbing a bag of chips and opening it.
Sengoku:"Replace Kizaru?! Do you know how hard it is to find someone of that caliber?!Especially in such an uncertain time?!" He shouts pissed off.
Garp:"I do have an potential substitute for him, but knowing how he is, he might not want to play along" he said devouring the chips.
Sengoku:"Who are you-" he said before getting interrupted.
Garp:"The white-haired boy, he's young but his strength and potential cannot be denied" he finally reveals his thoughts.
Sengoku took the time to think, the boy was young, about Sukuna's age in fact. And similar to Sukuna he displayed a huge amount of arrogance and lack of respect towards the higher-ups. But he was definitely much stronger than the debilitated Kizaru.
Sengoku sighed.
Sengoku:"I will listen to you this time, I will call him" he says picking up his Den-Den Mushi but Garp grabbed his hand.
Garp:"I will go see him myself, it's better if I try to talk to him myself" he says and Sengoku nods before sitting down to his chair.
"See you later" he waves his comrade and exits the room in search of the young man. __________________________________ (Impel down - Level 1 : crimson floor)
The three Curses Pirates, managed to infiltrate the prison without being spotted thanks to the Warlord Kuma.
(I know Kuma doesn't actually teleport people to different locations, but let's say he managed to do it for the three, and that it took them three days to appear there)
