Chapter 529 Chaos Prologue
The latest website: This war is extremely tragic.
In terms of scale, it is also unprecedented.
In such a cruel war, the pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates can stand to the end, which means that their strength is not much weaker.
But in front of everyone from the Mord Pirates who received the shadow enhancement buff, no matter how tough the last remaining members of the Whitebeard Pirates are, they will never be able to turn the tide.
Under the watchful eyes of the whole world, it was a natural result of being defeated by the Mord Pirates.
In contrast, the Maud Pirates have also created an impressive feat under the watchful eyes of the world.
In this epic war called [Mercedes Island Celebration], the Maud Pirates won the final victory without losing a single soldier.
If the facts are not in front of us, who can believe...
This war, which involved multiple huge forces and the number of people approaching 100,000, would eventually be won by a pirate group with only a dozen people participating in the war at the cost of zero casualties.
The corpses lay all over the field, on the devastated flat ground.
Ace, who lost consciousness, was frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold wave of Aokiji.
Fire melts ice, or freezes fire.
After all, it still depends on the strength of the capable person.
Only the remaining defeated Whitebeard Pirates paid the price for their vain attempt to challenge the Maud Pirates.
Except for Ace, who was frozen, no one survived.
It is worth mentioning that.
This group of pirates who persisted till now fought very hard to the last moment.
He didn't stop swinging his weapon until he died.
But if the strength is insufficient, it has to be slaughtered by others.
This is the most cruel place in the sea, and it is also the consequence that pirates should bear when they kill each other.
In a sense.
There is no difference between a fight between pirates and a duel between swordsmen.
Only when one side is defeated and dies is the real end.
Maud came to Ace.
A thick layer of ice covered Ace's body, and wisps of cold smoke visible to the naked eye emanated from the ice layer.
Maud stared at Ace's face that was obscured by ice, and the red light flashed in his eyes.
In the perception of seeing, hearing, and color, Ace's breath is like a candle in the wind, as if it will go out the next moment.
"Ro, Philo."
"exist."
Hearing Maud's call, Philo and Luo immediately came over.
Maud raised his hand, pressed his fingertips lightly on the ice cube that had frozen Ace's body, and said lightly: "Help Huoquan deal with the injury, don't let him die."
"it is good."
Philo and Luo each responded, and then looked at Ace, who was frozen into an ice sculpture.
Aokiji was also on the side, ready to help Ace thaw, so that Philo and Luo could be treated.
But he just took a few steps when he saw Maud directly assimilating the ice covering Ace into a shadow.
"Ah la la..."
Aokiji stopped.
Assimilating ice into shadows is an alternative thawing method.
Theoretically, the ability awakening level of Maud's ability to see shadows everywhere is the nemesis of almost all natural ability people.
Aokiji raised his hand and scratched his cheek habitually.
Since he didn't need him to thaw Ace, he stayed on the sidelines.
Philo and Rowe followed Maud's instructions and quickly treated Ace.
Maud did not disturb the treatment, turned around and left, and gave Lafayette the task of collecting the spoils to complete.
In this war-torn world, for every faction, weapons and equipment are undoubtedly the most scarce resources.
Maud naturally does not turn a blind eye to the multitude of weapons on the battlefield.
Collect these weapons and equipment starting at at least 50,000, and even if they are not provided to the revolutionary army afterwards, they can be handed over to Jaya, so that Jaya can unlock the skills of Wanjian Guizong again.
After the mission was dispatched, Maud went straight to Navigation Mountain.
now.
The explosion on Navigation Hill has ceased.
As the smoke cleared, the entire summit of Navigation Mountain was blown beyond recognition.
The fountain that spewed into the sky along the mountain before, naturally no longer exists.
Maud came to the foot of Navigation Mountain, and as soon as he saw it, he found a house that landed on the ground with a hot air balloon.
It is not difficult to guess that the tsunami and explosion just now came from Festa's hands.
Maud pushed open the badly damaged door and entered the house.
At a glance, I saw Festa, who was about to die, with a weak breath, and also saw the live screen of the recovery signal.
"This guy……"
Maud looked at the live broadcast on the screen and raised his eyebrows slightly.
For Festa's act of resuming the live broadcast with his last breath, Maud did not comment and did not care much.
Perhaps what Festa wanted to see was the perfect end to the celebration.
But in a sense, his move to resume the live broadcast is equivalent to helping Maud complete an unprecedented campaign.
The world has a fairly clear understanding of the horrors of the Maud Pirates.
In addition, I also understand that the future of the world will be closely related to the future behavior of the Maud Pirates.
Unquestionably--
The existence of the Maud Pirates is already an eye of the storm that no one can ignore.
Wherever you go, there is bound to be a disaster!
Maud walked to the center console and looked down at Festa, who was lying on the chair.
The man who joined Barrett to bring about the celebration was so weak that he had only one breath left, and could die at any moment.
"I'm still thinking about letting Lafayette pull the position of the Ralph Drew permanent pointer from you, forget it..."
Maud shook his head.
In Festa's situation, it would be troublesome to rescue him.
He simply gave up the idea of getting Ralph Drew's permanent pointer.
Coincidentally, as soon as Maud finished speaking, Festa died...
Looking at Festa's body, Maud averted his eyes and turned to look at the live screen again.
Although I don't really care about live streaming...
But the war is over, and there's no reason for the livestream to continue.
Maud fiddled with the console a few times before shutting down the stream.
Subsequently.
Maud sat half-reclining on the console, lifted the cover of the watch phone bug, and dialed Sonny's number.
After a while, there was still no response.
Maud instead dialed Sabo's number.
Also no response.
"Are you on a mission..."
Maud said to himself, still a little worried about Sonny anyway.
suddenly.
The watch phone bug opened its eyes and made a purring call.
Maud thought it was Sunny or Sabo calling back, and quickly connected.
"Maud."
However, the moment the call was connected, the voice from the watch phone bug was not Sabo or Sunny, but Shanks who had not been in contact for a long time.
"Huh? Shanks..."
Hearing Shanks' voice, Maud was slightly disappointed, but didn't show it.
"it's me."
The watch-phone bug's tiny eyes stared at Maud.
certainly.
Shanks on the other side of the radio wave couldn't see Maud through the phone bug.
"I saw the live broadcast."
Without waiting for Maud to speak, Shanks continued.
Maud was slightly startled when he heard the words, and asked tentatively, "Shanks, are you calling me at this time for Hawkeye's business?"
"..."
Shanks on the other side of the phone bug was silent for a while.
It took about two or three seconds for the sound to come out.
"Hawkeye is on the premise of being conscious and challenging you as a swordsman, and the duel between swordsmen is to put life and death aside. If I come to trouble you for this, Hawkeye might You will be so angry that you will live on the spot.”
Shanks answered Maud's question in a calm tone.
According to him, the duel between Jianhao is a matter of life and death.
However, Maud could still hear a hint of sadness in Shanks' tone.
He was very sensible and didn't dwell on this topic too much, and instead asked Shanks's purpose.
"So, you called here on purpose to...?"
"Actually, I just want to ask you one thing."
"You say, as long as I can do it."
"Give them a decent funeral."
"..."
Maud looked at the watch phone bug with some surprise.
I didn't expect Shanks to call on purpose because he wanted to ask him to deal with the funeral...
"them?"
"Yes, they."
"it is good."
Maud did not ask the specific people, he just responded directly.
At first he thought Shanks wanted him to take care of Hawkeye's funeral, but now it seems...
Maybe it also includes the funeral of Barrett and other strong people.
As Maud guessed.
Not only Hawkeye's funeral, but even Barrett and the others are on Shanks' request list.
Originally, Maud also wanted to use the corpses of Barrett and others to create reliable combat power.
But Shanks said so, then he can only give up this plan.
After answering this request, Maud and Shanks chatted a few more words before hanging up.
pat.
Maud slowly closed the watch phone bug's lid.
"Tomorrow... No, today, the new world will usher in the craziest moment."
Staring at the cover of the watch phone bug, Maud whispered to himself.
The Four Emperors Pirates who had carved up the New World territory were destroyed one after another...
This means that a large number of sites that were originally ruled by the Four Emperor Pirates will become unclaimed land overnight.
And those pirates in the new world will never miss this opportunity.
After all, this is a once-in-a-hundred-year-old super big cake, and you can earn blood for the next bite.
Therefore, it is foreseeable that with the destruction of these major forces of the Pirates, the new world will usher in a bloody storm in a short period of time.
Maud thought of this, and was considering whether to take over the territory of the Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.
If he decides to do so, it should affect the construction progress of the Sky City.
"Let's discuss it with everyone when we go back."
Maud squeezed his chin.
In fact, he had no interest in the territory, but he didn't want to see the navy reach out into the new world.
Therefore, dividing most of the New World's territory under his command seems to be something that must be done.
But whether to do it or not, fulfilling the promise to move Fishman Island to land is a higher priority.
The live stream was shut down by Maud.
People from all over the world have no way to know the situation on Mercury Island.
but.
They at least know that the war that will shape the future of the world is over.
The commoners and nobles are inevitably worried about the stability of the world, while the ruthless and ruthless are looking forward to a more chaotic era.
And the reporters are like chicken blood, wanting to write tomorrow's headline news as soon as possible.
.........
On the sea that is hundreds of miles away from Shui Xianxing Island, there is a rather strange boat floating, which looks like it was forcibly pieced together from various steel wrecks.
Rather than calling it weird, perhaps it would be more appropriate to use the word embarrassing.
On the boat, there were two brothers Kid and Kira, who had escaped from Mercury Island.
The two of them were seriously injured, and now they can only lie down and can't do anything.
But compared to the countless colleagues who died on the island of Shui Xianxing, the two of them saved at least one life.
"hateful……"
Kidd lay powerless, his expression slightly grim.
He came to participate in the Mercury Island celebration with the purpose of grabbing the throne of the Four Emperors.
As a result, in front of those monsters, he was cleaned out like a miscellaneous soldier, let alone robbing the throne of the Four Emperors.
If only to face monsters like Barrett and Charlotte Lingling...
Even if it fails this time, Kidd has the confidence to make a comeback.
But Maud is a more incomprehensible monster above Barrett and Charlotte Lingling, and it is an existence that makes him completely desperate.
Hearing Kidd's whisper, Kira turned her head with difficulty.
He looked at Kidd, who was gnashing his teeth and looking grim, and wanted to say something, but he didn't even have the strength to speak, so he had no choice but to give up.
Improvised, untechnical boats that drift with the waves at sea.
At this moment, a warship came from a distance.
On the warship were the navies led by Fujitora who had retreated from the island of Suixianxing.
Coincidentally, the boat where Kidd and Kira were on happened to be on the route of the fleet.
Even more unfortunate is-
The Vinsmoke family's iconic mobile country island ship appeared in the other direction as if it had just popped out of nowhere.
The boats Kidd and Kira were on were also on the route of the Vinsmoke family island boat.
The naval fleet leaving from Mercury Island and the Vinsmoke family island ship going to Mercury Island thus sandwiched the two brothers Kid and Kira in the middle.
The Navy side saw Kidd's ability to create a small broken ship, and also noticed the iconic island ship of the Vinsmoke family.
The Vinsmoke family also saw the fleet and Kidd's little broken ship.
Whether it is the Navy or the Vinsmoke family, they naturally focus on each other, rather than on that little broken ship.
"Germa 66?"
The Navy was surprised to meet the Vinsmoke family here.
On the other hand, the Vinsmoke family was not surprised when they saw the naval fleet.
"Hey, Gage."
On the deck of the island ship, Caesar, dressed in a white coat, observed the navy fleet with binoculars, and reminded in alarm, "You can't waste your troops on the navy at this time!"
"I know."
Gage folded his arms and stared blankly at the fleet in the distance.
to be frank--
He now has the world's most powerful man-made army, and he is not afraid of the defeated soldiers who escaped from the Mercury Island in front of him.
But there is really no need to waste troops here.
I just don't know what the navy on the other side thinks.
......
Holy Land Mary Joa, House of Power.
In the spacious room, the five old stars gathered together.
On the table in front of them, there was a projection movie bug that kept its eyes closed.
Obviously.
They also followed the live broadcast of the war on Mercury Island.
"Maud Pirates..."
One of the five old stars frowned and muttered the name of the Maud Pirates in a deep voice.
The atmosphere in the venue was quite dignified.
"Humph."
Another five old star snorted heavily.
"Bakaa.d. Maud's threat has reached a point that cannot be underestimated. No matter what the price is, he must be eliminated!"
"The good news is... that the assigned mission was successful."
"You mean, the family of Bakar D. Maud?"
"right."
