Chapter 449: Naval Battle (Fourth Update)
The red-haired companions landed on the island a little earlier than the puppet legion fought with the samurai of Wano Country. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Previously, Veil's plan was to accumulate a certain number of puppet legions before throwing them into battle.
After all, the various forces in the New World are not stupid, and it is easy to be connected with the sudden appearance of so many puppet legions on the battlefield that are not afraid of death.
Although Vell is working with the bosses behind those forces, after the news spreads, no one may be willing to risk going to the Land of Wano again.
No evidence is needed, and speculation alone is enough to make the forces retreat.
Now the war situation in the 'Wano Country' is very concerned by all forces, and they all have their own news channels.
In the early morning, the pirates stationed at the docks spotted the red-haired pirates.
After scouting the strength of the red-haired pirates, Vir and Tillman decided to send out the puppet legion, not to defeat the samurai of Wano Country, but to at least hold them up.
Those Kaido's subordinates were drawn out to prepare to face the red-haired pirates.
"Boom, boom, boom~~." The dull sound of cannon fire kept coming, blowing the sea high.
Will and the others did not let the red-haired pirates land smoothly, but directly intercepted the other party on the sea surface and engaged in a land and naval battle.
Hundreds of bow guns had been set up on the docks, constantly tilting their firepower, and the pitch-black cannonballs were shooting at the red-haired pirates in a parabola.
Occasionally hitting a ship of the Red-Haired Pirates will blow up sawdust in the sky, and a raging fire will ignite immediately.
"Chain-changing bullets."
One of the leaders of the Kaido Pirates, after discovering that the hit rate of the cannonballs was somewhat low, immediately replaced them with other cannonballs.
The so-called chain bullet is two solid iron balls with a thick iron chain linked in the middle.
Although this kind of chain bomb cannot explode, after being fired, the chain bullet will continue to rotate in the air, and once hit, it will cause great damage to the hull.
If you hit the mainmast of an enemy ship, the mainmast will inevitably be broken by the chain bullet, and the ship will immediately lose power.
When the sailboat loses power, it is nothing more than a piece of broken wood floating on the sea.
Dozens of chain bullets were fired, spinning rapidly in the air as they shot towards the red-haired pirates' ships.
"Be careful, it's a chain bomb, intercept it."
The Red-Haired Pirates have dozens of ships, led by the Red-haired Vehicle, the Red Foss.
"It's not good."
Ben Beckman pulled out the Rifle from his waist and immediately wrapped the Rifle in a domineering manner.
With a bang, pitch-black shotshots flew sideways, and a large projectile was shot out by Ben Beckman, and it was still wrapped in armed color domineering.
Ben Beckman's shot actually sent a large number of fast-flying chain bullets flying, and only a few of them hit the ships behind, leaving the Red Foss unscathed.
A relatively unlucky red-haired pirate ship was hit on the auxiliary mast, and the sails immediately twisted, and the power was greatly reduced.
Jesus squinted and was relieved to see that there were no casualties.
"Beckman, what should we do, we can't land on the island at all in the current situation, even if we force ourselves to land on the island, those guys are very difficult to mess with."
Jesus Boo grinned and looked at the shore with some headaches.
At this time, on the shore of the 'Wano Country', there are several figures sitting.
Will, Kaido, Tillman, Jack, all the main forces are here, except for Quinn, who wants to control the puppet legion.
"Anyway, we have to fight with the captain first, we are here to support the 'Wano Country', how can we not land on the island because the enemy is strong, then our red-haired pirates still have the face to gallop in the new world."
Ben Beckman also had a bit of a headache, but there was no other way than to storm it right now.
"It is not useful to keep ammunition on the Red Foss at full firepower, and after landing on the island, we must let the fleet sail away, we have to break into the 'country of Wano', and we can't hold on to the dock for a long time, leaving the ship behind, it is simply a waste to the enemy."
Ben Beckman made a quick decision, and the red-haired pirates began to move.
The number of guns on board the Red Foss was very large, more than ten on the front alone, six main guns at the forefront, and a ring of secondary guns on the ship's side.
A dense muffled sound rang out from the Red Forss, and the red-haired pirates began to fight back, and Kaido's men's firepower was immediately suppressed.
It's not that Kaido's gunners are weak, it's that Kaido's side is on land, and the red-haired side is at sea.
One side is a fixed target, while the other side is an active target, and the gap is particularly obvious, not to mention the cannons in the pirate world, the hit rate is extremely clumsy.
Generally whether it hits or not, it also depends on luck.
In this way, the double began shelling, and an hour later, most of the artillery on the pier was blown up.
Will looked at the naval battle in front of him a little speechlessly, he slept very late yesterday, and received the news that the red-haired pirate members had arrived in the morning.
In this boring artillery battle, Ville was a little sleepy, and he started to sigh one after another.
"Hey, how long is this going to be, and the level of your gunners is too poor, it took so long to sink the two ships of the red-haired pirates, according to the current situation, even if it takes a day, it won't be able to finish."
Will looked at the naval battle in front of him speechlessly, the momentum was indeed huge, but in fact, it was useless except for wasting a lot of shells.
"Ahem." Tillman coughed embarrassedly, the level of gunners of the Hundred Beast Pirates is indeed a little average, they generally engage in direct broadside battles, and rarely choose naval battles.
"Why don't we let them up? What do you recommend? “
Tillman asked tentatively.
"Agreed." Will has long been willing to do so.
"No comment." Jack was still munching on meat as he spoke, probably because he had gotten up too early and hadn't eaten breakfast yet.
Kaido .......
The three of them all looked at Kaido, and only then did they realize that Kaido was actually asleep, Kaido, with his head down and his eyes closed, fell asleep in the continuous sound of cannons.
Will stood up, a wicked smile on his face, ready to wake Kaido in a 'gentle' way.
After noticing the evil smile on Will's face, Tillman twitched his old face and immediately grabbed Will.
"You stinky boy, what are you going to do, let me tell you, it's a time of war, you and Kaido must not fight among themselves."
Tillman grabbed Will's clothes, and Will struggled for a long time, but he couldn't break free of Tillman.
"I'm just waking Kaido up, you're too nervous."
While Will and Tillman were torn apart, Jack had already come to Kaido's side.
"Boss~, Boss, wake up."
Kaido jerked his head up, his eyes wide open.
"Actually asleep, damn red-haired pirates, don't let people clean early in the morning."
Kaido's face was full of anger, and he looked angrily at the ships at sea.
"Stop the shelling and let them up."
Opinions were agreed, the artillery fire on the shore slowly stopped, and the pirates behind Vir and the others retreated some distance backwards, making a special trip to make room for the red-haired pirates to land on the island.
In the secret place, more than a dozen heavy guns are already ready, and when the red-haired pirates land on the island, they will surprise each other.
