Chapter 560: Nine of the Seven Martial Seas are common sense
Just as Ian's battle with the Navy on Salamis Island was reported by a trainee journalist Pritz, the world's journalists' enthusiasm for grabbing news is unstoppable.
In the previous period, when the Navy continued to mobilize elite sailors from various branches from all over the world, some reporters already smelled something unusual.
As a result, a large number of reporters squatted on the periphery of the Navy headquarters to find out what the situation was.
However, when the truth was discovered, the reporters were dumbfounded, and then went crazy and spread the truth they had unearthed all over the world.
The navy is going to do something to the Whitebeard Pirates!
This news, like a super bomb, made the whole world boil, although in the eyes of the world, sooner or later there will be a battle between the navy and the four emperors, but no one thought that this battle would come so quickly.
Moreover, the first target chosen by the navy was the most prestigious of the Four Emperors, Whitebeard......
As soon as the news report came out, it can be said that people all over the world were panicking, because no one knew which side would win this battle.
If the navy wins, then they will take a big step forward in their mission to "end the era of pirates", the power of the pirates will be dealt a heavy blow, and justice will be promoted.
And if the Whitebeard Pirates win, then the navy can no longer prevent the arrival of the heyday of the pirate era, and the great voyage will usher in more and more pirates, and Roger's great secret treasure will not be found, and this situation will continue forever.
At the same time, the reputation of the navy and the world government will be dealt a fatal blow, especially the world government, which has caused many contradictions between the member countries because of the heavenly gold matter, and if it is affected by the defeat again, all opposition forces will also jump out, and their dominance will continue to weaken until there is a situation where the member countries fall apart.
Without these member states, the world government would have collapsed......
Therefore, although the world government did not interfere in the decision-making of the marshal of the Warring States, it told him that since he wanted to fight, then he must win!
At this time, there were thousands of reporters gathered on Chambord Island, most of them were in the service of the News Corporation, and some of them worked under various small newspapers, but without exception, they were desperately collecting every bit of information about the war and writing it out as news.
And no matter how unpopular newspapers and magazines are, as long as they have something to do with this war, they can get huge sales.
To put it mildly, even if the whole article of a magazine is blank, as long as you write a title of "The Battle of New Ettwall", you can sell tens of thousands of copies......
The navy's fleet is constantly being dispatched to the new world, and the reporters who are guarding here are doing everything possible to count the specific military strength of the navy's dispatch this time by all means.
However, when they finished counting, they were horrified to find that the Navy Headquarters was almost out of the nest this time.
The number of warships dispatched was as high as more than 540, carrying nearly 100,000 elite naval troops, and among these navies, there were almost no ordinary soldiers, and the lowest military ranks were all non-commissioned officer ranks, with more than 10,000 captain-level officers, and more than 100 colonel-level officers counted in thousands.
Not to mention, there are not only more than a dozen famous vice admirals among them, but even the three major generals with the highest combat power in the navy have also come out, and the marshal of the Warring States is personally in command, looking ready to fight with the Whitebeard Pirates.
Such a large naval lineup made the reporters stunned, but then they felt inexplicably excited.
In any case, these reporters are basically on the side of the world government and the navy, because the news media are controlled by the world government, so even the position of the reporters under their command is biased towards the navy and the world government.
However, when they managed to get the general information of the Whitebeard Pirates, they couldn't laugh anymore.
The navy has a huge lineup, but the Whitebeard Pirates are also not weak, Whitebeard Edward Newgate, who is known as the first person of the Four Emperors, where is the name for nothing?
The Whitebeard Pirates themselves have a force of more than 1,600 people, led by sixteen team leaders, in addition, a large number of powerful pirates have also gathered under the name of Whitebeard, a total of forty-three pirate groups, with a number of more than 50,000 people, and the total number of large and small ships under their command is nearly 1,200.
Just seeing this data, the reporters couldn't help but gasp, because from the comparison of this data on the bright side, they knew that the Whitebeard Pirates were actually almost evenly matched with the navy......
It's really terrifying, is this the power of the first person of the Four Emperors!?
In the process of continuous excavation and reporting, the reporters also realized a big problem, that is, there was a serious vacancy in the members of the Seven Martial Seas who participated in the war on the navy side.
At present, the only people who have been drafted to participate in the war are Hawkeye Mihawk, Moonlight Moria, One Piece Empress Bojahan Cook, and ...... Bartholomew the Bear!
Not to mention the first three, the most surprising thing for the reporters is Bartholomew Bear, everyone knows that he is a member of the former Seven Martial Seas! His place has been taken by the Black Dragon Ian.
The new Seven Martial Seas did not participate in the war, but instead let the original Seven Martial Seas, who had already abdicated, fight, what the hell is going on?
Just when the reporters were still puzzled, it didn't take long for the news of the attack on the Push City University Prison, and after the reporters flocked to the Navy Headquarters for an interview, they learned from Vice Admiral Peach Rabbit that the attacker turned out to be the new Seven Martial Sea Black Dragon Ian!
Not only did he attack the Advance City Prison, killing all the prisoners on the fifth and sixth floors, but he also escaped with the rest of the prisoners!
When they first heard the news, the journalists had only one feeling, and that was deep fear! They finally knew why the Black Dragon Ian hadn't been drafted into the war, because he had completely turned against the Navy!
For this reason, the Navy even released the news of the revocation of Ian's title of Seven Martial Seas, and raised his bounty to an astonishing amount, one billion Baileys!
This is tantamount to the Navy itself admitting that Ian's threat has reached the same level as Jack the Drought, one of the three plagues of the Hundred Beast Pirates...... Maybe it's too much......
After the reporters frantically probed, they finally figured out why Ian chose to stand on the opposite side of the navy.
It's very simple, Ian and Fire Fist Ace, the captain of the second team of the Whitebeard Pirates, are brothers, and when the Dragon Hunter Pirates were hunted by the navy, it was Whitebeard Edward Newgate who stepped forward and forced the navy to protect Ian, that is to say, the Whitebeard Pirates were kind to Ian!
Then, it is logical that Ian chose to oppose the navy at this time.
And because of Ian, the Seven Martial Seas recruited by the Navy this time were incomplete, the sand crocodile Klockdal and the sea hero Jinping were rescued by Ian from the Advance City Prison, and Doflamingo was pulled off the horse by Ian, exposing the facts of his crime in front of the world, so that the navy could not be cheeky to pull it back as a combat force.
In this way, even Ian, it is equivalent to losing the combat power of the four Seven Martial Sea level of the Navy at once......
Now, although the navy has added a new Seven Martial Seas, Blackbeard Tic, but to be honest, many people have not heard much of this person named Blackbeard, and they don't know anything about his strength.
Therefore, in the hearts of many people, Blackbeard Tiki is actually not counted in the combat power of the Seven Martial Seas.
It's a mess...... While the reporters were apprehensive, they didn't know what to say about it.
Although when Ian joined the Seven Martial Seas, there were already high-ranking people (Vice Admiral Fighting Dogs) from the Navy Headquarters who had spread the news that this was a wrong decision, and that the location of the Seven Martial Seas could not restrain Ian, but people at that time would never have thought that this day would come so quickly.
Everyone vaguely felt that Ian's joining the Seven Martial Seas was just a means for him to save himself, and now his wings have begun to plump up and are ready to leave the nest......
Now, Ian and Klockdal and Haixia Jinping, the three Seven Martial Seas have lost their traces after the Advance City incident, but everyone knows that the object that the Navy has to guard against may have to add one more Dragon Hunter Pirates, but I don't know how far the strength of this Dragon Hunter Pirates has grown now......
Oh, by the way, the one who escaped with Ian is also a hidden big man, Bucky the Clown! When the crew of One Piece reappeared in the eyes of the world, it was not surprising that the world's terrifying memories of One Piece Roger were once again evoked......
As reporters who have received first-hand information, it is natural to be worried about the lack of combat strength of the navy, but there is good news, that is, Edward Newgate the Whitebeard is seriously injured!
To what extent? Is it still possible to go to war? Reporters don't know about it, but it's really good news.
The only thing that made the reporters curious was how Whitebeard was injured! Although various events show that the reason for Whitebeard's injury may be related to the navy's plan, because when the news of Whitebeard's injury just came out, Admiral Akainu had already appeared in the waters of Etwall in the New World.
However, the Navy Headquarters is also fragmented and does not specify how Whitebeard was injured, so even if the reporters scratch their hearts, there is still no way to know.
There is no way, this matter, the world government has issued a gag order, after all, they are using the Blackbeard Pirates, this matter is not very glorious, if it spreads, it may damage the glorious image of the navy and the world government, so for the reporters' questions, the navy and the high-level officials of the world government are silent.
And now, the Navy and the World Government have been informed of Blackbeard's quiet disappearance, and many people have a sense of foreboding about this matter, feeling that something big is about to happen......
The intelligence agencies of the world government are already trying to find a way to track down Blackbeard's whereabouts, but the problem is that now that the war with Whitebeard has begun, most of their eyes are focused on this matter, and it is difficult to devote too much energy to Blackbeard.
In the midst of all the disturbances, images finally came from the video of Chambord Island, which immediately attracted countless people to gather around to watch.
The live broadcast of this war has finally been released, which also means that the layout of the navy has been completed, and it is about to take action against the Whitebeard Pirates......
