Chapter 194 Before the War
"It's not necessary. It won't be too late to notify them to come back after everything has settled..."
Porusalino sat lazily on the sofa and glanced at Vegapunk, who had fallen into a state of selflessness.
Even if the robot corps transformed by Vegapunk are no longer useful, he will still have the Revolutionary Army as a back-up.
Not to mention that the existence of Boros is already a crushing level for the pirate world that ignores Bolusalino. Even if Im, who has ruled the world behind the scenes for eight hundred years, really has any tricks against the sky, can he It’s hard to say if you can’t pass Poros.
Of course, the strongest back-up player is always Porusalino, who is personally involved in the fight. With his current strength, even Porusalino himself is not sure to what extent it has been strengthened, when he takes action, he will definitely be crushed like a torrent. .
For a moment, Porusalino even expected that Im could survive Boros. Otherwise, it would be a pity that he had prepared so many surprises but failed to use them.
"That old guy Zefa should have taught you not to underestimate any opponent, right? Besides, our opponent is the World Government!"
The Warring States Supervisor frowned, feeling a little dissatisfied with Porusalino's behavior of "underestimating the enemy".
This is a key battle related to the future of the navy and even the world. If Porusalino hadn't repeatedly emphasized that it was not the time for the navy to show up, the Warring States Supervisor would have wanted to lead his fleet to kill Marie Joa.
Even if you have to hold your nose and fight side by side with the pirates, you must ensure that you can nail the 'coffin board' of the World Government.
Regarding Porusalino's behavior that was so confident that it was almost rash, Sengoku felt that it was necessary to make a strong criticism, at least to make Porusalino truly realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem..."
Porusalino comforted him casually, but before he finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows slightly, showing an interesting expression.
"What's wrong?"
The Warring States Supervisor subconsciously asked.
Even for him who has experienced hundreds of battles, an action like challenging the world government is still too exciting.
As a result, Porusalino's expression only changed, and the Warring States Supervisor became a little uneasy.
"Oh, the fight has already started over at Marie Joa, they are really impatient..."
Porusalino shrugged, and the passers-by were already preparing to broadcast live through the chat group, Esdeath led the first squadron of pirate fleets to attack the Red Harbor battle.
"Has it started already?!"
The Warring States Supervisor did not ask how Porusalino knew, and hurriedly left the office to arrange the sailing of the headquarters fleet.
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the Navy will appear at the last moment to wipe out the remnants of the World Government and the Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates!
For this reason, Marinefando must be fully prepared. If Porusalino hadn't insisted, the Warring States Supervisor would have even wanted to recall all the top navy officials, including Garp, to ensure absolute superiority in force.
【bite! A passerby who wanted to hug Luo Feng's thigh opened the live broadcast room and invited @everyone to watch the live broadcast. Do you accept it? 】
【Accept/Reject】
As soon as the Warring States Supervisor left, Porusalino received a reminder from the dimensional chat group.
After looking at Vegapunk, who was biting his nails and trying to streamline the robot design, Porusalino shrugged and returned to the rest area connected to the office, and then opened the chat group.
[Xiao Lin: Huh? Why did the live broadcast suddenly start? 】
[Passers who want to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Are the melon seed soda benches ready? I specially found the best angle to live broadcast the whole process of Esdeath boss beating up the Tianlong people! 】
[Haihara Ai: So prepare to hide behind the woman the whole time, Mr. Police Dog~]
[A passer-by who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Don’t speak too harshly, the vicious-tongued girl. The people on the other side are all ruthless characters. If you do, go ahead! 】
[Kamado Tanjiro: Well... passers-by, please pay attention to your safety. 】
[Orochimaru: If you encounter someone with Devil Fruit abilities, try to stay alive. My recent experiment will come in handy...]
[Tony Stark: Do you need me to personally sponsor a batch of weapons for you? They are all top quality. Even the idiots in the Pentagon can’t find fault with them! 】
[Passenger who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Haha, don’t worry, Tanjiro, I pay the most attention to my own safety and will never go to the front line to seek death! 】
[A passer-by who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: Boss Orochimaru thinks too highly of me. The main force this time is Boss Esdeath. I am just a soy sauce...]
[Porusalino: Go back and ask Boros to give you the scroll I gave him before. When in danger, release the reincarnated ninja sealed in the scroll. 】
[Orochimaru: Oh, you are really generous, as expected of Porusalino. 】
[Passenger who wants to hug Luo Feng’s thigh: I love it, thank you Mr. Kizaru! 】
[Zhang Sanfeng: It’s so difficult to make a living for the people...]
[Tony Stark: It’s begun! It’s begun! 】
……
At the same time that everyone was chatting, the pirate fleet of the first detachment of the Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates, led by Esdeath, appeared in a mighty manner outside the Red Port.
Although the fleet of the first detachment did not carry the banner of the Hundred Beasts and BIGMOM pirates, these nearly a thousand large and small pirate ships and more than 100,000 troops still brought a lot of trouble to the Holy Land Guard Corps stationed in Red Port. caused heavy psychological pressure.
"Fire!"
Before the pirate ships of the first squadron could approach, the artillery on the coastal defense line emitted a series of deafening roars.
‘Boom, boom, boom, boom…’
A dense network of firepower intertwined by hundreds of cannons blasted the pirate ships at the forefront to pieces with just one salvo. Several pirate ships that were caught in the fire even sank to the bottom of the sea on the spot.
Seeing this scene, the morale of the defenders was immediately boosted. After all, they are elite soldiers selected by the governments of various participating countries. With such intensive artillery support, they may not be able to challenge the 'miscellaneous soldiers' of the Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates head-on. .
"Lord Esdeath! The enemy's firepower is so fierce that our fleet can't rush through it!"
The senior combatants who followed Esdeath were a little numb. With their strength, they were not afraid of being killed by artillery shells. However, their original subordinates would probably be able to land in the face of such a ferocious bombardment even if they forced their way to land. He was pushed into the sea by the defenders who were waiting for work.
In the past, even the Navy headquarters did not have such exaggerated firepower. On the one hand, the world government has provided supplies regardless of the cost, and on the other hand, it can only be built with tens of thousands of young and strong soldiers acting as coolies. A fortification of this size.
"Hmph, what a panic! Rush over!"
Esdeath snorted disdainfully, and wearing a white imperial military uniform, she walked straight to the deck and shouted loudly at the pirates on the deck. This pirate ship chosen by Esdeath as the temporary flagship is the largest pirate ship in the first team, but it is also the easiest target to focus fire on.
However, in the face of the orders of Esdeath, the most senior combatant, no one dared to go against her will, even though going forward was likely to result in a narrow escape.
‘Boom, boom, boom, boom…’
As the flagship of the first squadron began to advance forward, the defenders on the coastal defense line did not hesitate to focus their main firepower on Esdeath's ship.
The overwhelming shells fell like raindrops, and the flagship of the first detachment was about to be engulfed in a sea of flames.
‘Bang bang bang bang bang bang…’
However, at the same time as the bombardment was launched, a hemispherical ice cap appeared out of thin air, shrouding the flagship below. No matter how the artillery bombarded it, it only left dense ice craters on the ice cap.
However, the progress of the shelling's destruction of the ice cap was far behind its self-repair speed. The front leg shells blasted countless ice craters on the ice cap. When a new round of rear leg shells fell, the ice cap surface was completely intact.
The ice cubes shattered by the shells flew everywhere, and a white mist of cold air spread over the sea. Even the smoke of the artillery fire was gradually covered by the white ice mist.
Just as the defenders on the coastal defense line were trying to mobilize more artillery to blast away the ice cap, a soldier with very keen hearing rubbed his ears in surprise. Between the constant roaring of shelling, he actually heard the sound of thunder coming from the sea. The sound of horse hooves.
‘Da da da da…’
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
As the sound of horse hooves continued to sound more and more densely, suddenly a severely damaged ice knight rushed out of the ice mist, trampling on the sea that had been frozen for an unknown period of time and rushed over.
The next moment, tens of thousands of ice knights rushed out of the ice mist at incredible speeds, charging towards the Red Harbor against the cannon fire in the sky!
"Enemy attack! Prepare to attack!"
Although the appearance of cavalry on the sea sounds outrageous, the stunned defenders quickly reacted and quickly hid in bunkers such as fortresses and trenches, preparing to block the ice cavalry's charge.
What the defenders never expected was that the Ice Knights, who in their imaginations should have bypassed the defenses and rushed in to fight, actually hit the coastal defense line without hesitation.
No matter whether there are reinforced concrete barriers or steel forts ahead, they cannot retreat.
‘Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang…’
Countless ice knights were smashed into pieces on the iron-walled coastal defense line. But before the defenders could breathe a sigh of relief, they felt that the temperature of the surrounding air began to drop sharply. The barriers and forts facing the ice knights' impact had even been destroyed. Frozen by the cold.
"Drink! General Binglan!"
Esdeath, who had been standing on the ice cap for some time, opened his palms in the direction of Red Harbor. Countless ice knights burst out of the ice cap and the frozen sea, like a mighty torrent of ice. Dashing towards the coastal defense line.
Esdeath, who has developed the Teigu Demon God Appearance and Demonic Essence to the extreme, can not only freeze time and space, but can also store the energy of the Teigu in the ice knight she created, and then release it in one fell swoop when needed.
The defenders on the coastal defense line simply could not withstand the ultra-low temperature that could even freeze and crack steel. What was even more terrifying was that under the impact of a steady stream of ice knights, even the reinforced concrete barriers were knocked out of huge gaps. The ice knights, who were braving the cold air all over their bodies, drove straight in through these gaps.
"Stop these monsters!"
The soldiers who could not withstand the low temperature were forced to evacuate from the coastal defense line. Under the strict orders of their superiors, they had to bite the bullet and try to stop the iron hooves of the Ice Knight.
"Death! Monster!"
A soldier from a coalition country roared and slashed at the Ice Knight with his sword, but was knocked dozens of meters away by the Ice Knight who rushed in at high speed.
The ice knights who rushed into the crowd were like warriors who were skilled in martial arts and had experienced many battles. They waved their spears, which were also frozen in ice, and started ruthlessly killing the surrounding soldiers.
Even the elite soldiers specially selected by each participating country have little room for resistance in the face of these powerful ice knights. The speed and strength of the ice knights even surpass the elite navy of the navy headquarters.
The soldiers of the Holy Land Guard Corps often have to make sacrifices several times or even ten times before they can deal with the ice knights who break through the defenders' lines.
Thousands of ice knights not only broke through the copper and iron walls of the coastal defense line, but also turned the Holy Land Guard Corps stationed behind the coastal defense line upside down.
"Come on! Kill them all!"
"Let the World Government's bastards meet the pirates of the New World!"
"Kill Marigio!"
……
Countless pirates poured into Red Harbor like a tide along the sea frozen by Esdeath.
The coastal defense line that Cyborg Sora worked so hard to build could not even survive the first day before it was breached by the pirates of the Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates.
"Meteor volcano!"
Just as countless pirates were looking ferocious with excitement, countless masses of hot lava fell like meteors, turning the ice knights and pirates who were still pouring into Red Harbor into ashes.
"Wow! It's Admiral Akainu!"
The pirates were panicking to avoid the lava falling from the sky. Even in the new world where villains were rampant, Admiral Akainu's fierce reputation was enough to scare most pirates.
'boom! ’
Another large ball of scalding lava crashed down from the sky, turning the ground into a sea of scorching magma.
Hundreds of ice knights and pirates were instantly killed by this blow. Sakaski, with lava flowing all over his body, stood up in the lava and stared at the pirates in front of him with a fierce look.
Originally, Sakaski was not prepared to join the battle so soon, but Esdeath's attack instantly defeated the defense line of the Holy Land Guards.
If there wasn't someone strong enough to stop this terrifying woman, the Holy Land Guard Corps in Red Harbor might not be able to survive even one day.
"You filthy scum, all of you should die!"
The furious Sakaski roared, and streams of lava spewed out of the ground like a volcanic eruption, burning all the ice knights and pirates within Sakaski's field of vision to ashes.
Relying on his own strength, Sakaski was able to stop the offensive of the Cosmic Dark Matter Pirates.
"Freeze!"
However, at this moment, Esdeath jumped up from the ice cap, stepped on the ice condensed in mid-air, and rushed into the battlefield at an astonishing high speed.
