Chapter Seventy-Five: The Glory of the Knight
Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.
Marshal's Office.
There were two phone bugs on the table, and Sengoku's eyes were wandering left and right, hesitating.
On this sea, there are very few things that can make the dignified [wise general] hesitate, but this is an exception.
In the end, Sengoku locked his eyes on the "golden phone bug".
Raise your hand slowly.
Just as the palm of the Warring States was about to stretch forward, the [Great Staff Officer] Crane on the opposite side suddenly spoke.
"Are you ready to come to your senses? Warring states. β
ββ¦β¦β
Sengoku paused.
Both he and Granny Crane knew very well what the golden phone bug represented.
A super-large-scale destructive military operation - Demon Slaying Order!
Formed by the World Government and the Navy Headquarters, it is used to carry out indiscriminate and devastating attacks on designated areas, using them to wipe out everything and people in a region.
The operation consists of ten warships, five vice admirals, and a large number of elite-level naval forces, enough to wipe an island from the face of the earth with ease!
That "Golden Phone Bug" is the key to initiating the Demon Slaying Order!
β¦β¦
So, is the reason why the Demon Slayer Order is feared by people because of its lethality?
Definitely!
The terrible thing about the Demon Slayer Order is not its "lethality", but its function of "erasure".
Once it is considered a target by the Demon Slayer Order, there will be no more records of it on the sea, and the target will disappear from this world completely!
The world government often uses demon-slaying orders to erase parts of the "taboo".
For example, Douglas Barrett, the [heir of the devil] many years ago;
For example, O'Hara, once the "holy place of archaeology......
There's nothing more terrifying in this world than "denying its existence", and that's the only function of the Demon Slayer Order!
Now, once the Demon Slaying Order is launched, whether it is "the Draconians were killed again", "[Demon] appeared in the East China Sea", or the "Totemjika" that has not yet appeared, "The World Government intervenes in the internal affairs of the country" and many other terrifying events......
Even the [Land of Music] Elegia itself will cease to exist!
This is the truth of the Demon Slaying Order!
β¦β¦
"That's the bell that stands for 'destruction.'"
The crane didn't move, just calmly looked into the eyes of the Warring States, and said slowly:
"Once, the bell destroyed O'Hara."
"Now, are you conscious enough to make it sound in Eleguia?"
ββ¦β¦β
Sengoku was silent for a moment, and finally stretched out his hand.
"Little crane, you know what?"
"Roger's death has ushered in a new era, and I can't let the second new era come so soon, this sea can't bear it."
"Whether the [Demon] intends it or not, the 'key' has already been held in his hand!"
"Are you conscious? It doesn't matter. β
Sengoku's voice grew deeper.
"All I need to do is make everything on Elegia never happen......"
ββ¦β¦β
Jingle Bell Bell Bell ......
β¦β¦
Eleguia, Port Terminal.
Thanks to the ability of Aven Lindsay, the people of the island were soon evacuated to the port.
But it takes time to prepare a ship to go to sea.
Everyone mingled in a short time and fell into a huge commotion.
"Quick, get on board!"
"If the Celestial Dragons die, we will all be regarded as accomplices!"
"This country is hopeless, I don't want to stay for the funeral!"
ββ¦β¦β
The situation is getting worse and worse, and a serious conflict is about to break out.
And at this moment, an inexplicable sense of oppression suddenly struck, enveloping everyone present indiscriminately.
Swish!
For a moment, everyone in the harbor shuddered, as if someone had put a knife to their necks.
The source of this is actually a red-haired man in a black coat.
γRedheadγShanks β
Overlord color domineering explosion!
He tried his best to suppress his overlord color to a minimum, stopping everyone's actions while not fainting on the spot.
Bang! Bang!
Ben Beckman took advantage of the situation to shoot two empty shots into the sky, and in the other hand he held a megaphone bug, and said in a loud voice:
"Hello? Feed! β
"Okay, now everyone can be quieter, those who want to evacuate will slowly get on the boat, and if they don't catch up, wait for the next batch!"
Beckman said casually with a cigarette in his mouth.
Then, he threw the phone bug to the big fat man next to him, Rachiru, and turned to Shanks and said, "That's it, Captain?" β
"Well, hard work."
Shanks nodded slightly and sat down on the barrel next to him.
"It's a big deal, after all, the Tianlong people are involved, and the world government will definitely send a guy at the level of a naval admiral."
"The 'Chambord Islands Riots' are about to happen again in Eleguia, and it could be even worse!"
Shanks' brow furrowed slightly, and he had already made up his mind.
"I can't let my friends go......"
"That's it, Beckman."
Shanks began to arrange: "Uta, there are other wounded, I will hand them over to you, you go to sea by boat first, and I will stay and wait and see what happens." β
Beckman nodded, "Leave it to me." β
Shanks muttered, "I hope everything goes well, I always have a bad premonition......"
"Captain!"
At this moment, Jesus Bu, who was in charge of the lookout, suddenly hurried over, pointed to the coastline in the distance and said, "The navy is coming!" β
"Oh? That's fast! β
Shanks took the binoculars and sighed casually.
He had already expected the situation at this moment, but he was very curious, which general was dispatched this time?
Pick up the binoculars and take a look.
"Oh, flying squirrel? Burning Mountain? They are all the new generation of navy that has been in the limelight recently! β
"Are you here to accompany you this time?"
"Let me see the general who is coming......"
ββ¦β¦β
Shankston paused.
"Hey, Beckman!"
"Captain?"
Beckman sensed that Shanks' expression was not right, and immediately leaned over.
I saw Shanks's face froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Tell Gordon immediately, let him arrange for everyone to evacuate Eleguia as quickly as possible, and you all go to help, quick!" β
Beckman looked at Shanks' expression and suddenly realized something.
"No...... right"
"Tsk! Sengoku, is this your decision?! β
Shanks was so angry that he directly crushed the telescope in his hand and stared at the naval fleet on the coastline in the distance.
There are no admirals, but a huge fleet with naval elites!
Since this is the case, then there is only one answer -
"The World Government thinks that the impact of this incident is too great, and intends to wipe out Elegia completely!"
"Get everyone up to speed! Hurry up, hurry up! β
ββ¦β¦β
Robin is not far from Shanks.
She also saw the naval fleet in the distance, and that scene brought back memories of years ago.
A sense of powerlessness and fear came over her, causing the girl to collapse to the ground.
She muttered:
"It's the Demon Slayer Order ......"
The nightmare is back!
β¦β¦
Boom!
Boom!
A familiar voice sounded, only this time it was not a pleasing firework, but a heavy artillery that destroyed everything!
The warships that carry out the Demon Slaying Order are the strongest and most aggressive in the navy, and the smallest forward fire alone is enough to destroy the entire port terminal!
Scattered shelling hit.
At this moment, the fleet was still some distance away from Aregia, only to find that many ships were trying to flee.
In order to prevent the sinners from hiding in those ships, the fleet launched an artillery bombardment to block the entire coastline of Eleguia.
During the Demon Slayer Order, innocent people were sheltered by refugee boats, and unofficial ships were forbidden to go to sea at will.
However, although they did try to avoid it, the accuracy of the shells was limited after all, and there were still a lot of accidental injuries.
A handful of strong men, including the red-haired pirates, stepped in to cover the populace and helped shoot down the shells.
As for those nobles, the red-haired pirates are too lazy to take care of it, so they can only rely on their own skills......
β¦β¦
The ships of Arlan, the land of knights.
"Jorian, Jorian and others!"
The nobles shouted.
Jaya Jorian is not only the prince of Arlan, but also the Grand Knight Captain, responsible for the safety of the nobles who accompany him.
But at this moment, Jorian was not on the ship, but standing on the edge of the dock.
One arm was wrapped in a bandage and hung from his chest.
He muttered:
"Is Mr. Lindsay alright?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Hey, Jorian, what are you doing?"
"That's the Demon Slaying Order! The Navy's Demon Slaying Order! β
A powerful aristocratic old man shouted and ordered: "Hurry up and get on the ship, cover our evacuation!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Jorian just looked at them quietly.
The state of affairs in Arlan was similar to that of the "Senate", and the authority of the nobles was no less than that of the royal family.
Even his father has to take into account the faces of the group of nobles in front of him on weekdays!
Can now?
Jorian blinked, then waved at them, "Is my father okay?" β
ββ¦β¦β
The nobles looked back and saw the king of Arlan curled up under the mast, covered in wounds and muttering in embarrassment:
"I'm sorry, I was wrong...... I can't, I don't know, I don't know how to do it......"
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that the nobles did not answer, Jory was relieved.
He had already sensed everything by seeing and hearing the domineering, but after all, he was more at ease by asking in person.
"That's ......"
He sighed softly and said in a loud voice: "Please take care of my father, the shells should not be able to help our ship, you just listen to the arrangements of the navy!" β
With a wave of his hand, it counts as a farewell.
"I'm going to help the others first, see you later!"
The nobles were immediately angry.
Although Arlan's ships were sturdy, and they had guards who could barely hold back the shells, they were not as strong as Jorian.
"No kidding!"
"You're the Grand Knight Captain of Arlan, and it's your duty to keep us safe, don't bother with those untouchables!"
Looking at Jorian's back as he gradually moved away, the aristocratic old man cursed vigorously:
"Jaya Jorian, have you abandoned your glory as a knight!"
ββ¦β¦β
Jorian didn't answer.
Or maybe...... Is the sound of artillery fire too loud?
A shell fell, about to hit a fleeing family.
A black shadow flashed in.
Rumble!
The high temperature of the artillery fire, but the husband, who protected his wife and daughter, was surprised to find that he was unharmed!
When I looked up, I saw a figure shining with a pitch-black metallic luster.
"I was taught from a young age to follow the dogma of knighthood."
"See through evil, preach the truth, practice justice, and punish sinners......"
Jorian tore open the bandage on his arm, and blood oozed from the wound, but he was stopped by the domineering of the armed color.
Jaya Jorian - Armed Sex Domineering Awakening!
He gently rubbed the little girl's head and motioned for the family to leave as soon as possible.
Then, looking further away, a large number of civilians were about to be hit by the shells.
"They said I ...... Abandoned the glory? β
ββ¦β¦β
Jorian lunged forward with his sword, slashing all the shells in mid-air.
Boom Boom!
Jorian broke out of the black fog and stood still in front of the crowd, his posture shaky, but he still didn't fall down after all.
"No, I don't."
The pure white knight is no more.
The Black Knight looked at them, smiled, and muttered:
"You are my glory......"
β¦β¦
