What happened to Bon Clay after the Impel Down arc? SPOILER ALERT: Contains spoilers for those who have not read or watched the end of Impel Down arc.

In the anime episode 451, Bon Clay disguises himself as Magellan to help Luffy and the prisoners escape on the Marine ship. Magellan gets very angry when he finds out, and attacks Bon Clay.



The episode ends after a few seconds, and the subsequent episodes do not show what happened next. Does it imply that Bon Clay was killed offscreen, or is this left as a suspense?
Bon Clay did not get killed. He somehow survived the fight against Magellan, and escaped to the Level 5.5 (Newkamaland), where he has become the new "Queen". Many of the Newkama prisoners who escaped during the Impel Down arc have reoccupied it.

The canonical evidence is on the cover page of Chapter 666. It is not yet known how Bon Clay escaped from Magellan, or how and why the Newkama prisoners returned to Impel Down.
