On the sea shrouded in night, fires erupt everywhere... At the same time, whether it is the navy or other forces, the individual powerhouses have shown their own means.

Some of them can even ignore the battlefield environment of the 'ocean' and unleash ultra-long-range and powerful attacks on the target.

Time passes slowly.

The entire sea was filled with artillery fire and shouts of killing.

The Warring States never thought that they had made all the preparations and still went to the road.

First of all, the revolutionary army infiltrated the navy at some point and created chaos.

The second is that a large number of scourges who do not belong to the Hell Pirates have come out of the surprising underwater, including pirates and mafia... They are all illegal forces from all walks of life.

There are human races, there are other races... But without exception, they are all very proficient in water, and some of them have taken advantage of their race to evade the detection of the navy, such as the Fish-People or Merfolk, including the Half-Fishmen.

There are also equipment similar to deep-sea submarines.

But there are not many of these enemies who suddenly appear ... It is a very small part.

It was these guys who delayed the battle and let many forces that broke into the naval formation intervene.

The crux of the problem is that the navy should target a few key 'figures' in advance, that is, the two four emperors... There was also the main flotilla of the revolutionary army.

This made the top combat power of the side also be involved at the same time, allowing other 'small fish' to have room to mix in.

And everyone's goal is very consistent, the captain of the Hell Pirates, the god killer!

However, the troops under the command of Sengoku have done their best to hold back these 'troublemakers' who are 'adding fuel to the fire', creating an opportunity for several warships as the main force to encircle and suppress the three ships of the Hell Pirates. To put it bluntly, the Hell Pirates only have three ships and only a few hundred people, even if these people are so-called ghosts who have been endowed with divine powers... In the face of absolute power, it is still inevitable to be crushed!

It's just a waste of time.

The surrounding area of the warship was deafening, and the smoke and flames were heavy.

Sengoku jumped out of the deck and shot at an approaching pirate ship, using the fruit ability, the flesh swelled up like a balloon, like a golden Buddha standing in the sky, and the terrifying giant hand suddenly slapped down, causing the entire ship to sink and collapse.

There are even pirates in the sky who are lifted away like dumplings, scattered in all directions, and fall into the sea.

After a long time, he returned to his original state, standing on the slowly sinking wreckage of the ship, his eyes slightly tired.

Beside him, a dark shadow flashed.

It's Karp.

"How?"

Sengoku asked an old friend.

"Those three ships have been destroyed... However, he was not found. Not only him, but several other members of the Hell Pirates... No one knows when they left or where they went. Karp's expression was also slightly serious.

He personally killed the main ship of the Hell Pirates, swept all the 'little pirates', and searched for a long time, but never saw the main owner.

"Have all these pirates infiltrated here?"

Then, Karp looked at the battle situation near the sea with some surprise, and some pirate ships had already penetrated into the phalanx of the navy.

"We have internal problems."

Warring States' eyes sank.

Someone is helping the Godslayer in the shadows... However, the Warring States are not sure if there is an internal ghost on their own side, because it is also possible that the intelligence of a certain ring has been leaked, which has caused the outside forces to know very well about the navy's 'marching formation'.

It seems that the position of each warship and the area patrolled are informed, so that these enemies can penetrate into the core battlefield as quickly as possible.

In this naval battle, there are quite a few non-commissioned officers involved in the headquarters, and anyone may reveal the news to the outside world.

But not necessarily intentionally... It can be unintentional.

After all, this battle with the Hell Pirates was watched by the whole world.

There are so many people who want to know the 'ins and outs', the number one suspect... It's the 'know-it-all' Morgans.

"Also... It's not just pirates... There are more people who want to meddle in this matter than we think... Or rather, someone is 'arching the fire'! "Sengoku took a deep breath and looked at the fierce battlefield from afar, they 'saw' all the enemies on the surface.

The Four Emperors, the Revolutionary Army, the armed groups, some non-member countries have grudges with the government, and even after the war has been fought until now, they have also caught bounty hunters...

But for the enemy, they still have less prediction, and in the shadows... And also.

"He can't escape... No matter which direction he goes from, what time ...

Sengoku clenched his fists, "He just left this area, and there will be people waiting for him on other battlefields!" Let's take care of this side now... Some of them have already begun to retreat, apparently discovering the disappearance of the Godslayer. ”

"Okay."

Karp listened and nodded.

Keep the battle going.

……

On the other side, above the clouds.

The seven people who were 'flying' suddenly suspended in the air.

Hazy harnessed the air current, put Dom and the others behind him, and stood alone in front of him, looking up.

"Bang Bang Bang..."

Familiar laughter was heard.

Doflamingo, dressed in pink, also stood upright in the air with silver wires on his feet.

He smiled and pressed the brim of his hat, the corner of his eye intertwined with the vision of Dover's red sunglasses.

Laughing softly: "See you again... joker。 ”

"Lieutenant General Crane is really smart enough, she expected it..."

"Boom... That old woman, but even I am very jealous of the strong man! Don't underestimate her! ”

Dover is a pun.

"What? Are you going to stop me? ”

Hazy didn't care.

"Boom... I'm not the only opponent of you. ”

Dover looked arrogant.

Hazy thought sensed it, and there was no one around.

"I came early on purpose... A wake-up call for you. Dover chuckled.

"How do you want to thank me?"

Suddenly, Dover's words changed.

"Thanks?"

I don't know how to pretend to understand.

"Of course... You're worth more than just the number on the World Government's bounty list, the ambitious guys in the whole world, in order to get you... Willing to pay any 'price', I also helped you place an astronomical reward for the underground forces of the New World. It added fuel to the fire and encouraged a lot of guys... Otherwise, where would there be so many people who risked their lives to stir up this troubled water and help you drag the navy? ”

"Before tonight's battle begins, as the Seven Martial Seas, I'm going to attend a regular meeting... The deployment of the Navy is not a secret to me ...

"Hazy... I've been a great help. ”

"Huh."

Hazy happy.

Dover's gesture of inviting merit undoubtedly shows... After tasting that wonderful taste of 'evolution', he wanted more.

It also means that the cooperation that the two talked about at the beginning was moved by Dover's heart.

Sou!

In the blink of an eye, Haze appeared in front of Dover, and the two looked at each other.

"It's not enough... Your sincerity is not enough. ”

"Also, your role is not here, not today... Don't do anything meaningless, because it's not a bargaining chip you can get in for power! Your bargaining chips can only be manifested after I kill the Four Emperors, and it is not so easy to take this little risk to win my favor... What I want to see is the 'courage' behind you. I do what I have to do, you do what you have to do... That's when our collaboration was established. ”

"Remuneration... But you'll only pay when you're done with your work. ”

Hazy said word by word.

“……”

Dover was silent, a green tendon protruding from his forehead.

His fingers were hooking, and the aura of the whole person became a little irritable and fierce.

After an eerie and murderous silence, Dover suddenly laughed, "Boom... I really want to kill you, now. ”

Hazy's mind moved, and he didn't care about Dover's mouth at all, and controlled Yuri and several people to get closer and flew over.

He staggered past Dover, ready to leave.

"Tsuru has guessed that you might abandon all the crew... Deliberately let us see a few 'bags', I appear here... You should understand what that means, right? The guys in the back... It's not easy to deal with... Especially that Hawkeye. ”

"Boom, don't die... I'm still looking forward to what our future holds..."

"Wipe your own ass... This time, she was careful to be aware of it. ”

The aftermath of fading away came.

Dover heard the sound, and his body fell free in an instant, disappearing into the clouds.
