Chapter 102: Iron Triangle!
Navy headquarters, inside the crescent-shaped island 'Marinfando'!
At this time, there were still three hours left before the time when Fire Fist Ace was publicly executed.
Now, as a criminal, Ace has been escorted to the execution table in the center of the 'Olis Square' in the bay to wait, and next to him, he is guarded by the Admiral 'Sengoku'.
In front of the execution table, the three major generals, who exist as the 'highest combat power of the navy', also sat on the table and acted as the last line of defense.
As for the bay, it is even more crowded.
Now......
"The worst happened!"
The Warring States Marshal, who is in charge of everything, is an old man with a braided beard, glasses, and although he is over seventy years old, his hair color is still pure black, "Ayn Grant, it disappeared at this time, it's not normal to think about it." ”
I have to say that compared to the trend of the ninja world's combat power plummeting at the age of seventy, the Warring States Marshal is now seventy-seven years old, but he is still the top powerhouse in this world.
Obviously, in terms of physical fitness, the world of pirates does have a unique advantage.
But even so......
"Stupid Draconian, just give me trouble at this time."
Marshal Sengoku has been feeling blocked in his heart since a few days ago.
After all......
"The other party is a huge force that can even capture the golden lion alive, if it joins forces with the Whitebeard Pirates, it means that the Navy Headquarters will have to face two 'Four Emperors' level oppression at the same time......"
That's a real problem!
It was precisely because of this concern that the Warring States Marshal had tried his best to persuade the world government before, and at this time, he must not anger Ayn Grant's bottom line.
Therefore, when all the slaves owned by the Draconians were emancipated, and the world government felt that it was a great disgrace, it did not immediately announce to the world that Ayn Grant wanted him.
The previous warning was already the last contact with Ayn Grant.
It's a pity that the other party directly ignored it, and freed all the slaves with his backhand.
There is a tendency of 'if you don't realize it, I'll do it myself'.
It is worth mentioning that among the members of the 'Seven Martial Seas', the man nicknamed 'Tenyasha', 'Don Quixote Doflamingo', also has the blood of the Draconians, so ......
The vast majority of the slaves freed by Ayn Grant came from underground 'human trafficking' sites under his control.
For a time, he ate both black and white, and it can be said that he suffered heavy losses.
But despite what happened, he could only swallow his anger without the world government intervening.
Of course, gritting teeth and an angry expression of bruises on the forehead are naturally indispensable.
Not much to gossip!
All in all, for the sake of today's chances of victory, the Marshal of the Warring States can be said to try not to provoke Ayn Grant.
But even so, the other party still showed extraordinary movements at this time.
Obviously, the other party's statement that 'if you don't change your name, I will help you carve a new name on the tombstone' is not an arrogant joke.
And he already has to think about how to deal with the worst-case scenario.
However, nicknamed 'Wise General', he knew very well that by this time, the Navy had no room to retreat.
No matter how strong the opponent is, he can only bite the bullet and go up!
"I just hope that there won't be any other 'unexpected' things."
……
Meanwhile!
The Judicial Island, the Advance City, and the Navy Headquarters are the famous Iron Triangle defense lines of the Navy in the great shipping routes.
It's just that Justice Island, known as 'prisoners have no return', was directly broken through by the Straw Hat Pirates before.
And the Navy Headquarters, which has the strongest combat power, is also very likely to usher in a war with the head of the Four Emperors, the 'Whitebeard Pirates'.
As for advancing the city......
Originally, if it weren't for the interference of Mo Yang and Ayn Grant, then this place, known as the 'world's largest prison', would have been indirectly turned upside down by Luffy.
But now, it was the Ayn Grant insiders who had formed a bond with the Draco people before, so the subsequent series of events had no source before they happened.
However, unfortunately, even with these changes, the city is still not at peace.
Because......
"How did this guy end up here?"
"Send someone to inspect that warship!"
"It's so suspicious!"
Nowadays, the only relatively 'stable' place in the Iron Triangle has also ushered in uninvited guests.
Blackbeard – Marshall M. D. Teach!
As a member of the new Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, he was supposed to participate in the battle at the naval headquarters, but now he appeared here, which immediately made the navy stationed in the advancing city 'Impelton' very vigilant.
However......
"Hahaha, don't say that, aren't we companions?"
Blackbeard himself was a strong man with a strange shape and a few missing teeth, and although he said "amiable" at this time, as soon as he stepped onto the port of the city, a strange substance shaped like a black mist gushed silently from under his feet.
"This kind of behavior bothers us a lot."
"Advance City is a place where pirates are imprisoned, even if you are the king's Seven Martial Seas, you can't enter at will without an order from the Navy Headquarters."
"Please return immediately, we will check the situation with the Marshal of the Warring States...... Belch! ”
The navy that advanced to the gate of the city was still persuading, but they were only halfway through the sentence, and they only felt a sinking under their feet.
At this time, the soldiers realized that the black fog that was spreading silently had spread throughout the port.
In an instant, everyone seemed to be stuck in a swamp, with no place to stay, and their bodies gradually sank downward.
It seems that in the black fog, there is infinite space.
It didn't take long for him to disappear completely with screams.
This moment......
"Attack them!"
"Blackbeard's intention to invade Advance City is already obvious!"
"They must not be let out!"
The navy stationed in the advancing city, under the command of a certain general, immediately raised the guns in their hands.
But......
"Liberate!"
Blackbeard's movements were faster, and with a move of his right hand, a strange black mist suddenly erupted from his palm.
Immediately afterwards, the naval soldiers who had just disappeared by him were directly 'sprayed' out of the newly appeared black mist.
Everyone was like cannonballs, firing straight at the remaining naval soldiers.
Suddenly, in the face of these colleagues who were being used, the soldiers did not dare to shoot at all.
"Bang bang!"
Then, they were knocked down one after another.
Seeing this scene......
"Hahaha, you're welcome!"
Blackbeard, who said the exact opposite of what he said and what he did, so lightly dealt with all the Navy soldiers who were in charge of guarding the door.
And then......
"Dark Cave Road!"
Looking at the closed gate of the city in front of him, Blackbeard released a black mist again, and after a while, with the sound of the material being crushed, the obstruction was quickly covered by the black fog, and the gate that was ten meters high disappeared directly with the door bolt.
What used to be a metal gate has become an unobstructed passageway.
At this time......
"Sure enough, because the Navy Headquarters has gathered too much combat power, the garrison force here is very weak."
Next to Blackbeard, a man with pale skin, a cane, and dressed like a mime actor tilted his head and said, "It's just that it is said that Magellan, who is the director, has the strength of not weaker than the general, so we still have to be careful." ”
Hear this......
"Hahaha, nothing will be smooth sailing!"
Blackbeard laughed and said, "And, the more dangerous it is, the more valuable it is to us, isn't it?" ”
When this strange remark is spoken......
"You're really using a weird trick to hiss."
At some point, on the surface of the sea next to the port of the Advance City, a figure wearing a robe of red clouds on a black background and carrying a huge soldier on his back gradually floated up from under the water.
In the end, he stood steadily on the undulating water, looking at Blackbeard and his party, with a slightly playful look in his fish-like eyes.
"Well, I heard that the guys who can use this strange trick are very afraid of water."
After attracting the attention of everyone in Blackbeard's group, this person raised his right hand and took down the giant soldier behind him, "I just don't know, how many of you are 'powerful'?" ”
"The sea, but it's a terrible chatter!"
