Chapter Twenty-Five: Newcomers to Naval Warfare
In the waters of all countries, more than a dozen battleships of the Big Mom Pirates were stuck in the sea in the light of the skyrocketing fire. The dark clouds and heavy rain poured down, even if it poured on the hull, it could not extinguish the sky-high fire.
Several warships with whale bows slowly passed through the group of warships that were blazing on the sea, and there were several warships flying the flag of Bucky Express next to them, which was the combined fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates and Bucky Express.
At the operational meeting in the City of Life, Marko had come up with his own operational ideas. Using the coating, let all the warships dive from the bottom of the sea to the shores of all countries, and launch a surprise attack on the Big Mom Pirates. It's like in a top war, using coatings, passing through the bottom of the sea, breaking through the detection range of the navy and the first line of defense, and hitting the heart of the opponent. However, this plan of operation was vetoed by the chief of staff of the Yunero Pirates, Julian, who devised a more reliable and effective sneak attack. With the Whitebeard Pirates and Bucky Express acting as the frontal feints, Youror's headquarters fleet can take the perfect surprise attack.
Bista came to Marco and looked at a dilapidated scene on the sea, this is the core area of the Big Mom Pirates, I didn't expect that I would let myself and others achieve such a result, it was really unexpected: "Marko, there seem to be many fewer patrol warships in the waters of all countries than expected, and the defense is really weak." ”
"It's a lot less. Ma Er took the information secretly sent by Gaji and looked at it, and said: "The marriage of the Big Mom Pirates and Jerma 66, these main defense forces and cadres naturally went to the wedding, and it is natural that there are so many forces on the sea." The news from Gaji that the four generals of the aunt's family have come over with their cadres, our old opponents, Katakuri, Smuji, and Kelijia. Oh no, it should be called the Three Generals by now, Snag has been defeated by Urki, the worst generation, and removed from the Generals Star. ”
The general star of the Big Mom Pirates can be said to have super combat effectiveness, especially Katakuri, who has trained his domineering ability to the extreme, and can predict the future, which is quite a tricky character. The generals of the Big Mom Pirates were also a headache for the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates in the past, but what I really didn't expect was that one of the general stars, Snag, was defeated by the "Strange Monk" Urki, plus Yunero, Luffy, Kidd and others, it seems that the little guys of the worst generation have finally begun to stir up the situation in the world.
After learning that only three generals were coming, Bista hurriedly suggested: "Then what are you waiting for, when we were in the top war, these guys didn't eat our meat behind us, since they have one less general star, let's attack quickly." ”
"Now is not the time. Marco rejected Bista's suggestion, looked up at the thick dark clouds in the sky, stretched out his hand to pick up the big rain of beans mixed with the P potion, and opened his mouth to remind: "Don't forget, we are fighting together this time, and we are participating in the war as an alliance. The protagonists of this war are not us, nor Jerma 66, but the Yunero Pirates. Our mission is to feint, attract the attention of the opponent and lead them to the ambush point. ”
Bista sighed, it was indeed as Marco said, this was war, and it needed to be done according to the war plan. Going ashore immediately was certainly a good idea to fight with the generals, but it deviated from the original battle plan. Bista nodded, and said helplessly: "Okay, I know, in order to completely solve the aunt, I will bear with it for the time being, but I won't let the generals of the aunt's family be arrogant for too long." ”
"Well, let the fleet stop advancing, order Bucky's men to form a battle line with us and shell all nations. ”
"Okay. ”
On the side of Bucky Express, they soon received an order from the Whitebeard Pirates to halt their fleet and prepare for an artillery bombardment.
Bucky hung up the phone bug and scolded: "Those guys dare to order me, I'm the Seven Martial Seas!"
Mr.3 hurriedly persuaded: "Bucky, Bucky, we are mercenaries, we are mercenaries, shouldn't we obey the orders of our employers, calm down, we can't get along with money." ”
Arlita carried a mace beside her, letting the rain wet her thin clothes, outlining her graceful body, counting the dozen Berry in her hand, and said lazily, "Bucky, this is all money." ”
"Woo, damn it, order the fleet to stop moving forward and form a battle line with the Whitebeard Pirates!" Bucky could only swallow his anger and shouted, as a mercenary, he should only follow the orders of his employer Yunero, but Yunero's order was to let Bucky accompany the Whitebeard Pirates to make a frontal feint, and the command was handed over to the Whitebeard Pirates. As a result, Bucky had to obey the Whitebeard Pirates.
Naturally, the people of Bucky Express don't know the battle line, and a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals also want to learn the tactics of the sea and play the battle line. And most of the people in Bucky Express are pirates who don't want to be motivated, people who are greedy for momentary pleasure, don't expect them to learn anything from real talent.
Under the command and dispatch of Chief of Staff Kabaji, the battleships of Bucky Express were crookedly lined up with the Whitebeard Pirates and joined the battle line, which seemed quite incongruous. Bucky also looked at his "huge" fleet and said regretfully: "Damn, if it weren't for the Straw Hat Kid, there would be a few Giant Clans among my subordinates, who would definitely shine in this war, and they would definitely use more employers to handle business with us in the future, damn Straw Hat Boy." ”
Looking at the crooked battle line, Marco was also helpless, Bucky Express is not a serious thing after all, and he is also a newcomer to battle line tactics on his side. Due to the appearance of Yunero, it has had a huge impact on the naval combat tactics of the entire One Piece world, whether it is the navy or the pirates, they are imitating the naval combat tactics of the Yunero Pirates, and of course, the level of imitation is also uneven. However, this influence of Younero himself is now considered by many scholars to be the father of modern naval warfare tactics.
Two patrol warships of all nations came up, and when Marco saw it, he hurriedly ordered: "The port side is aimed at the two enemy ships in the northwest direction, and one round of artillery bombardment!"
With Marko's battleship as the flagship, the "boom", the sound of cannons sounded from the front of the battle line to the end, nearly 100 guns spit out tongues of fire one after another, and solid shells flew towards the two patrol warships of Wanguo. In this world of debuffs with extremely low hit rates, only such concentrated firepower can ensure that there is enough to sink the enemy and get the ship.
"Boom...... Whoa......"
Columns of water were blown up next to the two warships, and before the pirates on board could rejoice, the overwhelming cannonballs hit the deck, and for a while sawdust flew everywhere. A succession of shells penetrated the deck and smashed directly into the ammunition compartment. The temperature of the newly unloaded solid bullet is not low, and even the torrential rain has not reduced the high temperature on its surface. There was a "boom", which just hit the gunpowder in the ammunition compartment, which directly caused the explosion. The battleship burst into flames, and the pirates jumped ship and fled for their lives.
