Chapter 419: The Storm Strikes
Kaido's fleet covered the sky and the sea, and the momentum was magnificent.
In this fleet, Kaido is the marshal, CP0 agents and Wano country samurai are considered foreign aid, and the three big signboards are the commanders of each army.
Therefore, Kaido and Golden Lion sat on the flagship of the Chinese army, "Ghost" and Black Carbon Snake led their secret service group and samurai group separately in two ships, and the three big signature Jin, Quinn, and Hiryu each had their own ships, scattered in this huge fleet.
Under their command, this Hundred Beast Legion, with hundreds of warships and 80,000 fighters, has a strict military authority that prohibits orders and prohibitions in its actions.
This brought them together as one, a giant beast that seemed to engulf the sea.
Although Kaido is complacent with his personal force and always likes to go out and fight alone, he is in command of thousands of troops at the moment, and he is inevitably proud of the mighty invincible army under his command.
If it weren't for the fact that there was really no culture, Kaido would probably have to drink and write poems on the river.
Kaido didn't swell to the point of getting carried away, though.
In fact, contrary to his appearance of five big and three thick, Kaido is not the kind of muscular captain who only drinks and eats meat and fights as Galen imagined, but is a very qualified army commander.
It is impossible for a simple muscular captain to take the elite route and engage in small groups, and it is impossible to pull up such a team of tens of thousands of people, and he can still divide one side, dominate the people, and achieve the whole world in the arms business.
During the voyage of the fleet, Kaido has been concerned about various factors such as the fleet's route, supplies, and weather, in case something happens.
Especially this weather factor, even Kaido has to pay attention to it.
Including Kaido, several major forces on the sea have basically set up professional navigator teams.
Because the weather in the New World is unpredictable, sometimes a hailstone can be larger than the size of a ship, and the storms generated at sea don't matter if you are the Four Emperors or ordinary people, bad luck can wipe you out.
If we don't pay attention to these external factors, even the Invincible Armada may fall into the sea at any time to feed the fish.
The golden lion who capsized in the storm is now standing next to Kaido...
"Kaido-sama!"
The chief navigator of the Hundred Beast Pirates reported to Kaido as usual on the daily weather conditions of the voyage:
"The meteorologists of our regiment have just observed that there is only a faint air vortex in the nearby sea area of 100 miles."
"Not only is it not a threat, but it also strengthens the wind and blows the sails, making it ideal for large armies."
"Yes."
Kaido nodded, but didn't say much.
He looked up at the sky again:
The sun rises in the east, the sun is shining, the sky is blue like jade, and the cloud sponge is soft like a flocculent, it is indeed a good day for the wind and sunshine to be beautiful and suitable for travel.
But, somehow, Kaido always felt that something wasn't quite right.
As the so-called wind from the dragon and the cloud from the tiger, Kaido is a phantom beast of the dragon fruit ability, able to manipulate wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and has a special sense of celestial changes in nature.
Although he couldn't detect anything unusual with the naked eye, Kaido still smelled danger in his elusive sixth sense.
"Is the weather really okay?"
Kaido asked Navigator uneasily.
"Absolutely."
The chief navigator is also confident in his professional competence:
"Although the weather in the New World is changing rapidly, most of the weather is traceable and can be observed in advance."
"The navigators in our regiment are all top meteorologists, and there will be absolutely nothing missing."
"Heh..."
The golden lion standing next to him snorted affectionately:
When he went to Roger to go to war, his navigators also gave him tickets in the same way.
"This..."
The chief navigator noticed the golden lion's not very good-looking face, but his eyes lit up, and he took the golden lion as an argument and said to Kaido:
"The kind of super-massive storm that even nautical experts can't predict is definitely a special weather that is rare in a century."
"It is already a very unlikely event that a person can encounter once in a lifetime, how can he encounter a second time?"
"It's also..."
Kaido was persuaded by his subordinates to use the theory of probability, and couldn't help but glance at the golden lion beside him:
So unlucky things, how can the same person collide twice?
This golden lion is not a "auspicious rui" favored by nature, right?
When Kaido thought about it, the bad feeling in his heart finally subsided a lot:
"In that case..."
"Keep the course unchanged and keep sailing!"
However, it was at this time that the wind picked up at sea.
It is not the original gentle wind with warm water vapor, nor is it the kind of cold wind that gradually increases, but a demon wind that rushes over from a distance at a very fast speed and on a huge scale.
The scorching sun was still high, but those layers of white clouds were instantly swept away by this strange wind, and they disappeared in just an instant.
This gust of wind came too quickly, too suddenly, and the wind was unusually strong, it was not a normal wheal that existed in nature at all, but it made Kaido and the others feel like someone had suddenly turned on a fifth-speed electric fan in front of them.
Of course, this wind is much more powerful than an electric fan.
It slammed in from the front without warning, engulfing the entire fleet like an invisible tsunami, smashing the endless sails backwards and causing the huge fleet to move abruptly.
And this wind is not just hanging for a while, but like a surging tide, it is continuous and continuous, not only does not have the intention of stopping, but is rising higher and stronger.
In the midst of the wind, the sail flags hunted, the hull timber creaked and wailed, and shocking cracks spread wildly across the mast deck.
All 80,000 seafarers were in a panic.
"Drop the sails!"
Kaido's expression also became serious, and there was a hint of panic in his voice.
Without his orders, the crews of the ships were also veterans of the sea, and knew that it was self-defeating to raise the sails in the strong winds.
Unfortunately, the wind was too strong.
Before the scrambled crew lowered the sails, the sturdy masts made of fine timber fell in pieces, shattering the deck, cracking the hull, and causing numerous casualties.
"What the hell is going on!"
Kaido's eyes turned red all at once.
He picked up the navigator next to him and said viciously:
"Bastard!"
"Didn't you say the weather was normal? How can this be now! ”
"This, this..."
The veteran navigator was also completely stunned, he had never seen such an unbelievable storm without warning:
"It could just be gusts of wind at sea..."
"It'll be fine in a while."
"Possibly?"
"Useless stuff!"
Kaido, however, was not interested in listening to such comforting words at all, and casually threw the navigator he was carrying in his hand to the ground, and smashed it directly through the three decks.
By this time, the wind was more than ten times stronger than it had been.
The originally calm sea began to become choppy, and the huge waves set off in the strong wind were dozens of meters high, and wave after wave, like peaks and peaks, endless layers.
Soon, there were countless huge mountains on the surface of the sea.
The fleet of the Hundred Beast Pirates was suddenly in disarray, and the huge and mighty ships rose and fell in the waves like duckweed, and the pirates completely lost control of the ships.
The weaker minions can't even stand on their feet in battle, and can only experience a pirate ship that is a hundred times more real than the pirate ship in the amusement park in the undulating waves.
Because the formation was too dense, many ships were still engaged in intimate physical exchanges in a bloody and violent way under the "matchmaking" of huge waves, and they collided with a sea of broken iron and wood at any time, playing themselves into broken ships.
In just a few minutes, the fleet of the Hundred Beast Pirates was in a state of half-ruin.
"Damn... Why is this happening! ”
Kaido felt his heart bleed.
Although those ships and minions were worthless cannon fodder in the first place, they were buried in the sea in such an inexplicable way without even seeing the face of the enemy, how could Kaido, as the commander-in-chief, not feel distressed?
"It can't go on like this!"
Transformed into a dragon, Kaido leaps up from the deck and soars into the air.
He flew straight in the direction of the wind, trying to figure out what was going on.
As a legendary dragon, Kaido can not only manipulate storms, thunder and lightning, but can even control celestial phenomena on a small scale through his abilities.
Dispersing storms and storming thunderclouds are his usual activities when he dies.
If it goes well, Kaido can even use his body to destroy the eye of the storm and stop a powerful storm.
However, as soon as Kaido took to the air, his dragon face darkened...
I saw that the sky in front of me suddenly pressed a black cloud as thick as the sea, dyeing half of the sky as black as ink.
At first, it was only a black line, but under the fierce wind, it surged like a tide, and the sun in the sky soon disappeared without a trace.
The broad and thick thunder mang jumped in this endless sea of black clouds, and every lightning light was like a divine dragon churning among the thunderclouds, which made Kaido, the earthy yellow ugly dragon, suddenly eclipsed.
And then the sea of black clouds came rushing over, and there were hurricanes ten times stronger than before, and huge waves hundreds of meters high, reflecting flashing thunder.
"Hurricanes! It's a hurricane! ”
Everyone panicked, including Kaido.
He no longer had the heart to fight the wind and waves, but his eyes turned red and turned back into a human body, and he retreated to the deck in a state of suffocation.
A hurricane of this magnitude is a natural force that he simply cannot resist.
He himself may not be afraid of this kind of hurricane, and the senior cadres under his command can survive under this powerful hurricane, but what about the hundreds of giant ships and nearly 80,000 elite pirates?
Kaido knew very well that they would never end up being swallowed up by a hurricane and going to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.
That's the money he has saved up for many years!
Becoming one of the Four Emperors requires not only personal force, but also the kind of powerful force that can dominate the sea, otherwise he can only be regarded as a rogue and not a big warlord that the world government has to fear.
And today's storm is enough to destroy Kaido's foundation for more than 20 years and remove him from the throne of the Four Emperors.
In addition, Galen, a strong enemy, is still dominant, and he doesn't want to take off his head all the time, how can he give this reservoir dog a chance to make a comeback?
The hegemony of a lifetime was blown away by a gust of wind!
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
Kaido roared uncontrollably.
"How?"
"Do you really want to kill a few navigators to sacrifice to the sky?"
The voice of the golden lion suddenly sounded in Kaido's ears, and there was a kind of empathetic pain in his words.
"The Golden Lion?"
Kaido's eyes lit up, as if he suddenly saw some life-saving straw.
"Help me!"
He excitedly grabbed the translucent arm of the golden lion, and he could no longer find a bit of domineering as the Four Emperors on his body:
"Help me get those ships flying and avoid this hurricane!"
"After the deed is done, I can give you whatever you want!"
"You're welcome..."
"Everyone is a friend, and I will naturally help you."
The golden lion laughed "kindly".
