On the other side of the Red Earth, the first half of the Great Passage begins.

In the waters near several routes, a large number of naval warships are gathered.

These warships roam between the Twin Headlands and the Seven Origin Islands... Although it is the entrance to the Great Shipping Channel, it looks like a very 'slender' sea area from the map.

But in fact, the entire sea area is quite large, and even the navy cannot completely fill the empty space with all the assembled forces, after all, individual warships looking at the sea are like sesame seeds.

Even if there are enough of them, it is difficult to cover them 'holistically'.

Coupled with the consideration of the ability of the Godslayer, as well as the previous cases of failed attempts to capture the other side, the Navy decided to deploy like this, instead of all the 'large army pressing the border' and blocking the Upside Down Mountain.

The forces were so concentrated that once the Godslayer escaped, it would be difficult for them to keep up.

The best way is to guard the entrance of the seven routes, the environment of the great waterway is extremely special, without the guidance of the recording pointers, it is easy to 'get lost' in the sea if you do not follow the route.

Although this is not a big difficulty for the Hell Pirates, if this group wants to go to the Chambord Islands, to the New World... The safe way, or follow the route, will save more time. Otherwise, if you stay in the first half of the great waterway for too long, you will easily be 'targeted' by the navy and fall into a protracted 'scorching war'.

No matter how you look at it, it's not good for the Hell Pirates.

The commander-in-chief of this battle was Marshal Sengoku on the surface, but in fact, the real leader was Chief of Staff Tsuru.

At this time, the scene on every naval warship seemed extremely busy.

A large number of soldiers ran back and forth on the deck, some preparing for war, others constantly liaising with government agencies to keep in touch with each other.

In the control room of a ship, Marshal Sengoku, Vice Admiral Karp, and Chief of Staff Tsuru, the three 'mainstays' of the older generation of the Navy gathered. The unit of the warship they are currently riding in is in the very center of the sea area of the entire 'Boundless Battlefield', and it is also the location on the map that is facing the exit of the 'Upside-Down Mountain'.

The three admirals, the Red Inu, the Yellow Ape, and the Green Pheasant, also came, and they were located near the starting islands of the seven routes, responsible for the 'equal amount of battlefield area', followed by a large number of vice admirals in the Navy Headquarters, including the Admiral Candidate Peach Rabbit and the Tea Dolphin.

Several of the Seven Martial Seas have also arrived.

The navy sending this kind of force can almost be said to be launching a full-scale war, even if it starts a war with the Four Emperors now, it is estimated that it will be to this extent, at most, the number of grassroots combatants is still much worse. Currently, the number of soldiers summoned by their navy is nearly thirty thousand, and according to the clues at hand, the members of the Hell Pirates are less than a thousand... No matter how you look at it, it's a sure win.

The reason why they are so prepared is a bit of a 'fuss' because they have to deal with more than just the Hell Pirates.

It's a crane to move the people like this... Predicted the hazy 'plan'!

"You guessed it!"

Inside the house, Sengoku hung up the contact with the pheasant, looked at the crane looking at the chart, and said in a deep voice.

The Four Emperors Kaido, personally went into battle.

The fleet of the Beast Pirates is here... In the vicinity of the second route.

"It's really fast..."

Tsuru behaved very calmly.

"All so restless... Hahaha, it's been a long time since the sea has been so lively! ”

Karp laughed heartlessly.

"You still have a smile?!"

Seeing this, Warring States' face immediately darkened, "A few hours ago, news came from above, saying that there were signs of revolutionary army activity... Your good son! ”

Karp was unmoved, and buckled his nose.

“……”

Warring states.

"The redhead and the white beard are determined in the new world, and the attitude is already obvious... I won't be involved in this matter, but BigMom's people are probably coming soon, and the movements and reactions of this group of pirates are quite fast, and the godkillers didn't rush over at the first time, just to let these spoilers intervene. I originally thought that after the changes in the East China Sea back then, he failed to recruit the god killer, and the two four emperors had already understood the attitude of the god killer, this guy just wanted to fight alone, so even if he entered the great channel this time... will also sit idly by, there is no need to put a hot face on a cold ass anymore. If you don't succeed, you will be caught, which means that the quality of the god killer is like this... Any heat is temporary, and sooner or later it will pass. ”

Two Four Emperors, the Revolutionary Army... There are also many underground forces lurking in the Great Passage, these people... It's all coming.

The Four Emperors and the Revolutionary Army were singled out because these three were the most tricky.

However, this time the exposure of his abilities made Kaido and Charlotte Lingling unable to sit still anyway... At least on the surface, whoever can get the 'God Slayer' will undoubtedly have the capital to turn the tables, and the pattern of the Four Emperors will also be broken. This has a fatal attraction for people like Kaido and Charlotte Lingling..."

"It's the same with other giants at sea."

"You and I both know Whitebeard's personality, and the redhead is the most special of the four."

"When I was in the East China Sea, the redhead appeared, but it wasn't for the godslayer..."

"So, before that, from everything the Hell Pirates did in the North Sea, especially about 'divine powers', I guessed... He'll do it. ”

The crane crossed his hands and hugged his chest and said lightly.

"Take your body as bait... Attract more big fish. ”

Tsuru also glanced at Karp, "But the appearance of the revolutionary army is something I didn't expect." ”

"Hahaha!!"

Karp touched his head, pretending not to understand.

"Kaido and Bigmom are in a hurry... We have very limited manpower, so we can hold them back and lay siege to the Hell Pirates. Sengoku thought for a moment, stepped forward and pointed a few markers on the chart with his finger, and said, "The two of them don't dare to go too deep, most of them will act on the opportunity, because they don't have enough manpower, once they go too deep into the position, I'm afraid that even they will be in danger... Although the Godslayer is of high value to them, it is not enough to compensate themselves. ”

"As long as we catch the haze, these two will definitely evacuate quickly."

"The rest of the parties... I see..."

Before the Warring States finished speaking, he noticed that his old friend's expression was a little wrong, and stopped talking.

"You're right... Rushing over in such a short time, Kaido and Bigmom must have been extremely hasty and ill-prepared no matter what method they used. Tsuru pinched his chin with his hand, and after a short mutter, he suddenly said, "But have you ever thought that all this was intentional by the godslayer?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Sengoku heard what she meant.

"As I said, this man's city is quite deep... Unlike Roger's sense of transparency that is wise and foolish, he simply has an extraordinary mind, and it is not difficult to see from the experience of Beihai that he is good at strategizing... Now, it seems that he intends to lure all forces over to make the 'battle situation' muddy, so that he can break through from our layers of blockade. ”

"But after the Chambord Incident, the general opinion of the outside world was that the god-killer would go to the Four Emperors, which was his only way out, but he didn't do it, and then the subsequent changes in the East China Sea... His attitude is already obvious, no matter how difficult the situation is, he will not be with the Four Emperors... It is even said that the Hell Pirates have been created now, and it is clearly a challenger. ”

"Kaido and Charlotte Lingling will definitely make a move, and making a shot means that there is loss... He wants to use us to weaken the foundation of the two Four Emperors and open up a 'situation' for his own challenge path, which will harm us and all the forces that covet him. But at the moment, everyone's attention is on his ability, and they all think that he released the news to let the 'outsiders' help him get out of trouble, but in fact, the real purpose is to make us 'kill each other'... This kind of big war, if you want to not hurt your vitality, is impossible. ”

The crane told the story.

"It's really possible... But... Logically, doesn't quite hold up. ”

"If that's his motive..."

After hearing this, Sengoku was shocked, "Could it be that their Hell Pirates still want to be unharmed?" Pull out? There will definitely be casualties among themselves ... Moreover, the danger to be faced is the greatest. ”

"They can't get out... The Godslayer has finally formed such a team in Beihai, and he may be completely wiped out by us, and even he will not be able to escape. ”

"What if... He seems to be in the North Sea, and these pirates who have worked tirelessly to recruit are all illusions? He deliberately created a resume of himself after becoming a pirate, in order to show it to people outside and deceive us..."

"He just wants these people to die to achieve his goal... Or rather, deep down in his heart from the beginning, these pirates were not part of the Hell Pirates. The Hell Pirates he wanted, not like this... Do you think it's reasonable that these people are just victims of early preparation? ”

"Because this time to enter the Great Channel, facing us, it is a dead end! I thought he would show more 'strength' and recruit more people... It's not just a few hundred. Even if he had the confidence to escape from us, it was only him... As the captain of a pirate group, if you really care about your companions, or if you see these people as part of the ship, will you let them die in vain? He did this for two reasons. ”

"Number one, he's definitely a cold-blooded, ruthless and selfish imp... There is no human touch, it is to let these subordinates die and create a chance for themselves to escape. ”

"Or... These people were abandoned by him early on, just to make this big battle more intense for all of us to fight. ”

Seeing that Sengoku's expression began to become complicated, Tsuru said leisurely: "Of course, these are just my guesses and judgments... It doesn't have to be true. ”

"If that's the case, then... Definitely not the first one. ”

"If this little devil is selfish enough... The cunning fox who followed him, that is, the night wandering god of the current Hell Pirates, this person has long since ceased to exist. So, I can be sure... He is not selfish, but for some unimportant people, he must make way for his plans. ”

"Although different from Roger, he... He is a truly ambitious hero. ”

"It's really... Pirate. ”

Tsuru made up his mind.

These words silenced Karp on the side.
