Chapter 8: The War Begins
On the vast sea, there is no wind, no waves, and no birds, and the surroundings seem to be quiet and abrupt, and only the sea kings who occasionally emerge from the bottom of the sea to spit out a bubble to prove their presence show that this is not a static picture. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Great Passage No Wind Belt, is such a place. There is no wind, no waves, no four seasons, only eternal sunshine or night.
It looks peaceful and peaceful, but under the calm lurks the most terrifying world. Because the windless zone is a forbidden place for all other life except for the sea kings. Even, in this area where there is no wind, once you accidentally drive a boat in, you have nowhere to run.
This is the windless zone, a naturally formed magical sea. The windless strip on both sides is right in the middle, dividing the great route into two sections. The first half is Paradise, and the second half is New World. Sandwiched in the middle of the windless belt, the only gap in the Red Earth Continent is the location of the Navy headquarters island Marinfando.
Even if you can bypass many dangerous seas through the windless belt, and even reach the New World directly from the entrance of the Red Earth Continent, almost no one will make such a choice unless you lose your mind. After all, if you go head-to-head with the endless sea kings here, even the "Four Emperors" will have to sink into the sand.
It can be seen from this that at the time of its initial establishment, the people of the navy were so scheming. The position chosen happened to hold the most important level, directly cutting off the pirates' way forward. Not only that, but the windless strips on both sides also form a natural barrier, making the naval headquarters the easiest fortress to defend and difficult to attack.
Especially after Vegapunk joined the navy, he invented a way to sail in the windless zone, so that the windless zone was no longer an obstacle to the navy.
Even if that way is it, it just looks like a sea tower stone is inlaid in the bottom of the ship to simulate the breath of the sea to deceive the senses of the sea kings, but those who have tried it know that it is actually not that simple. Without Vegapunk's unique technology, even a warship made of sea tower stone would not be able to hide from these creatures at the top of the food chain.
Of course, there are many difficulties, but there is no way out. You know, the wisdom of pirates is endless. Since the road to the sea was cut off, they invented the way of coating, and risked great danger to pass through the seabed at a depth of 10,000 meters.
But in this way, first, it is difficult to find coating craftsmen with sufficient skills, and even if there is, there is a high probability that they will be monitored by the navy, after all, there are very few people like Reilly who cannot be controlled by the navy. On the other hand, the situation at the bottom of the sea is unpredictable, and if there is a slight mistake in the pool, it will be doomed.
That's why, over the years, very few new pirates have entered the New World.
The above is a well-recognized fact, but today, the existence of the Whitebeard Pirates has broken the convention that people recognize. This is not Whitebeard's headquarters, but a fleet of 46 pirates, all of whom were summoned by Whitebeard.
For them, as long as it is Whitebeard's order, even if it is to go up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire, they will definitely not have the slightest retreat, let alone just attack the naval headquarters.
At this time, their ship stopped here to make a final break before the war. And around them, from time to time, there will be a huge sea king showing their tracks, but they dare not approach from a distance.
It seems that it is not a pirate fleet here, but a beast of the wilderness......
In fact, it is one person who makes them afraid. A man who no one dared to ignore even if he was old -- Edward Newgoth "Whitebeard".
At this moment, Whitebeard's tall body was leaning back in his seat, and he was asleep. The tubes all over his body, as well as the layers of wrinkles on his face, all indicate that he is no longer young. However, on his face, you can't find any vicissitudes, it seems that only the face is old, and his inner is always at its peak.
Marco, who returned from the reconnaissance, saw such a scene. The complicated mood flashed, and even if he couldn't bear it, he had to open his mouth and shout......
"Daddy!"
"Huh?" snorted, and Whitebeard opened his eyes. After a moment of confusion and cloudiness, his eyes returned to clarity and sharpness.
"It's Marco, what's going on?"
"Daddy......" Marco took a deep breath, he has always been lazy, and today is rare seriousness and seriousness. For him, this is perhaps the most important moment in his life, and he cannot afford to slack off.
"The 'Seven Martial Seas' are already lined up at the Navy Headquarters, and the 'Three Great Generals' are also in place. Although our attack plucked out the eyes of the Navy, it had little impact on the defense of the Navy Headquarters, and it was ......"
"The door of justice is closed. ”
"Really?" said Whitebeard, laughing without the slightest surprise, "nothing has exceeded my expectations...... Warring States, isn't there any new trick?"
said this, but Whitebeard did not mean to underestimate it in his heart. After all, people who are not good at trickery are called wise men. The real headache is precisely those who are not complicated in their schemes, but can use the simplest way in the most appropriate situation.
The former is like Spendham, and no matter how much trickery there is, it is a small trick at best. The latter is a person who seeks a country like Sengoku, and the arrangement he makes looks unsurprising, but it is precisely the most difficult place to deal with, and because of the old means, it will not leave any loopholes to exploit......
"So, can you only fight hard......" The laughter fell, and Whitebeard snatched a huge flask from the side, raised his head and poured a breath, and whispered softly under the cover of the gurgling sound, "Warring States, you have completely angered me......"
"In that case...... Send the wine down, ready to fight!" casually threw away the dry flask, and Whitebeard's voice was particularly cold and full of anger.
"Come on, Navy! Come on, Sengoku! Everything that should come, I'll take it all over Whitebeard!" A roar of rage, Whitebeard, who was still sitting upright, slammed his right fist out to his side. And with a cracking sound, the place where his fist hit suddenly appeared full of cracks, like cobwebs.
Then, taking the position of the boxing as the source point, the fluctuations spread far away, turning into violent vibrations, and the entire space seemed to begin to tremble. In the windless environment, the calm and waveless sea surface also ripples, and under the impetus of the layers, it sets off a wave several meters high. And the giant sea kings patrolling around also let out an unknown roar and dived under the surface of the sea......
"Bang, bang, bang, bang......" punch after punch, and Whitebeard struck one after another on the vibrating nodes, like the most passionate war drum, sounding the order to march. Immediately afterwards, the sea surface broke layer by layer, and overturned with the vibration of space, and a tsunami tens of meters high formed in an instant, pushing flat in the direction of Marinfando......
"Come on, navy bastards, the war you want has begun!"
The rumbling sound was like thunder, and the momentum spread for hundreds of miles.
