98, Battle of Twin Cape (6)
The Battle of Twin Cape didn't last long with the disappearance of the Godslayer.
It was almost over by noon the next day.
The outbreak and process of this war are very fierce... But the end was also very abrupt.
For no other reason, everyone is here for the godslayer... His whereabouts are unknown, which makes the naval war lose the 'cost' of continuing to fight.
After learning that the three ships of the Hell Pirates had been destroyed, most of the crew members had been killed, and the captain had disappeared, some of the big forces quickly evacuated the battlefield area one after another... Immediately afterwards, it is the 'ragtag army' of all parties joining in the fun.
However, the big fish has the ability to escape, and the small fish come to 'stir up trouble', and it is more difficult to get out safely.
Once the tricky target is gone, the combat power of the navy can completely sweep and calm the situation with the force of thunder.
As far as the eye can see, the whole sea is in shambles, with floating corpses and debris of the ship's hull... Blood stained a lot of the waters.
Outwardly, it was the Navy that won.
But in reality, they failed.
Because the Godslayer has once again disappeared from the encirclement of their 'Heaven and Earth Net'.
In the control room of the main ship, Sengoku, who was a little mentally tired, was holding a phone bug in his hand and was contacting Tina in the North Sea.
"Didn't you?"
"No... According to the deployment of the chief of staff of the crane, before the battle began, we were already squatting on the other side of the Red Earth Continent, just below the upside-down mountain on this side of the North Sea, but we never found it... It seems that the people of the Hell Pirates did not return to the North Sea. Of course, it's also possible that we didn't find out... If several of them fly at an alarming altitude enough in the case. On the other side of the phone bug, Tina, who had just arrived at the North Sea base, stood on the deck, blowing the sea breeze, and making a report.
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at the clear sky as beautiful as a porcelain piece.
The breeze ruffled her long pink hair and swept away a wisp of smoke from the corner of her mouth from a cigarette.
Behind her, dozens of warships stood by in all directions of the sea.
In addition to her, in this huge fleet of warships, there are still some seniors in the headquarters... The area of the sea is quite large, and there are people staring at it in all directions.
She came to Beihai to take office, in fact, it was also a move in advance by Crane, just to deal with the situation that this naval battle of Twin Cape might slip away from the godslayer... But the intelligence ahead, she has already received ... It seems that late last night, Hawkeye in the Seven Martial Seas had already fought with the God Slayer, but in the end he still couldn't stop the other party.
Let it fly over the Red Earth Continent.
It's possible that people have returned to the North Sea... Or went somewhere else.
In short, within a short period of receiving the news, the fleet on their side had already begun to try to 'search the air', but no target was found.
On the deck, a large number of soldiers rushed back and forth, starting to contact various bases in the North Sea, as well as the government's scattered intelligence points or eyelines in the North Sea, etc., if the Godslayer returned to the North Sea, then no matter where they ran, they would have to receive the message as soon as possible.
After communicating for a long time, after the Warring States gave some orders, he put down the phone bug.
His hands were on the cold mechanical table, his eyes closed.
Failed to capture the Godslayer... It means that the Hell Pirates will still resurrect, and the most important thing is public opinion! He believed that in a few days, at least that bastard Morgans, the bastard would portray the Navy as useless, and it would make the world government lose face again.
"There's no need to be too depressed."
At this moment, a voice sounded from behind him.
Sengoku opened his eyes and saw that it was a crane.
The old woman obviously saw his thoughts, and said lightly, "For most civilians in the world, they will not delve into the essence of this war. At least, on the surface, this is a big battle that we won... On the government's side, we took advantage of this battle, but we captured a large number of pirates and all kinds of criminals, and the number and amount of bounties were not a few, although there were no key characters, but it was enough to give them an explanation... Moreover, we also sabotaged the plans of the revolutionary army. ”
"Most of their actions this time are also an attempt to 'contact' the God Slayer... If these two people are on the same front, then the future sea may really change the sky. We didn't catch the Godslayer, and at least the revolutionary army didn't succeed... This is already the best result. ”
"Recently at sea... The pirates have clear signs of rising, and we desperately need a victory like this to dampen their arrogance. ”
"Hehe..."
Tsuru's words obviously failed to alleviate Sengoku's worries, and he said ineffectively, "Is it a coincidence?" Those two people are both called long. ”
After speaking, he glanced at the crane, "You have long been mentally prepared for him to run away?" ”
"As I said, he's no ordinary pirate... There are many 'things' in him that we don't know. It's just an attempt... No one dares to say that in the face of such a person, there is full certainty! Moreover, compared to this battle, what is more worrying is still to come......"
Tsuru said calmly, ready to turn and leave.
"Back?"
"We've put such a heavy force in place, and it's still not an obstacle for him... In other words, it was very easy for him to enter the Great Passage, and even given his abilities, there were many ways to choose from. In this case, he made this drama 'with great momentum', and lost so many manpower for no reason... You think it's just to embarrass us, or... Is it just a lively picture? Crane's words made Warring States brows tighten, and a chill ran on his back.
"No one wastes energy and time doing something that doesn't benefit them... Especially people like him. ”
Tsuru opened the door, "The longer he prepares, the more effort he expends, indicating his true purpose... The more amazing. ”
"Let's prepare for it in advance... I've contacted the government and asked them to review all the information related to the Hell Pirates as soon as possible and analyze it. ”
"In addition, the government will send out reports before the news agencies... The title is that we intercepted the Godslayer from entering the Great Passage, he failed to attack, and the entire Hell Pirates were nearly killed! In terms of public opinion, we will not necessarily suffer. ”
"Hmm."
Sengoku rubbed his temples and gently bowed his head.
Immediately, the crane went out.
……
"Bang Bang Bang..."
Crane had a cloak hanging from his thin body, and as soon as he came out of the control room, he saw Doflamingo sitting on the railing of the ship in an arrogant manner, and let out a shrill laugh.
"Lieutenant General Tsuru."
Not far away, a greeting sounded.
Peach Rabbit, who had returned from the battle, boarded the ship and looked for it.
Tsuru smiled at her.
Then, his gaze was blank as he looked at Doflamingo.
"Doflamingo... You guy, you're really a bad guy. ”
The crane chuckled softly, as if he was making fun of a junior elder.
"The old woman... I've been doing what you've been told, and even that Hawkeye guy has failed... You're not going to blame me for that, are you? Doflamingo said in a weird voice.
"This time... Someone with you, right? ”
Tsuru's smile remained the same, "We've caught quite a few... It has also been interrogated. ”
"It's not my person, I'm just offering a big reward."
Doflamingo grinned, "I had a holiday with the Godslayer... And in the North Sea, we are still competitors, he died ... No one is happier than me! Again, at the end of the day... I'm also a pirate, and I'm also red-eyed with his ability... So, I'm paying someone to help, no problem, right? ”
"As the Seven Martial Seas, I naturally have to obey the government's arrangement... However, as a pirate... I also have a certain amount of independent action, and you can't interfere, as I said at the beginning! ”
Indeed, there is nothing wrong with what he said, at least he can't find fault with it.
"Don't get too carried away joker, you have to know that the privileges you have come from those people, not yourself."
"There's a limit to their patience."
Crane was not angry, and seemed too lazy to fight with Doflamingo, she led the peach rabbit on a stroll, and said a few words lightly as she staggered past Dof.
She has now determined that the person who revealed the plan is Joker, but with the other party's means, if she dares to do this, she must have wiped her 'ass' very clean... And the end has fallen, and this dirty trick of Dover to muddy the waters is actually... The impact is not great.
There's no need to waste your mind on it.
I just don't know... Is he really thinking of coveting the Godslayer, or is it something else...
However, her two sentences seemed to poke Doflamingo's heart.
Hit the other party's vital point.
Dover's expression became gloomy for a moment.
It's ugly.
Crane pinched Doflamingo to death.
A strong, strong guy like Doflamingo... What he couldn't accept the most was that everything he got came from the alms of the three words 'Tianlong people'.
But he can't argue with it yet, because in a way, it's true.
Dover's own efforts... It seems that under the aura of the 'Celestial Dragon Man', everything has been denied.
"Bang bang."
Staring at the crane's distant back, Dover smiled coldly.
