Chapter 171: 171. Preparations For Marine! Redhead: We Can't Go Back In Time!
"This time—"
above the dining table.
Rob had a serious look on his face:
"Leading Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, and 200 T1 Terminators under their command, I will go to Beehive Island to attack, and the rest of the Seraphim and artificial weapons will all stay here!"
"It's up to you to command! In addition, Robin is responsible for distributing this attack information in the underground world and telling everyone about our plan!"
"If someone gets the news and wants to attack the Paradise Islands, or intercept me, that would be great! Those people will be a good test of what level we have achieved after working so hard for so long!"
Hearing the words, Robin made an OK gesture, saying:
"No problem! Leave it to me!"
Rob nodded. With a smile on his face, he raised his glass, saying:
"I wish our plan this time can be successfully completed! Cheers!"
Robin, Uta, and Makino all raised their wine glasses with smiles, and touched Rob's glass, saying loudly:
"Cheers!"
And that's how Rob's training plan for the four of them was formulated.
The next day, under Rob's command, the Paradise Islands began to build a large number of ships for travel. Rob added four Seraphs and two hundred T1 Terminator troops each!
Although the Angel couldn't hold it all, since it was an expedition, a proper ship was needed!
Moreover, it would take time for Robin to pass on this news, so Rob planned to use this time to build a standard-level battleship belonging to their Paradise Islands!
Using various technologies, the target was Marine's large warships.
After a few days, the news that Robin passed on was directly known to all parties in the New World.
Marine Headquarters - Marineford—
Inside the marshal's office.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku looked at the information in his hand with a serious face:
"After lurking for a year, you created the mysterious Paradise Islands, constantly expanded the underground forces, and constantly publicized the information of the founding of the country! Now, are you finally going to show your ambition, Rob?"
There was a pause. Sengoku looked up at the numerous Marine Headquarters generals in his office, saying in a serious tone:
"It doesn't matter if the news is a smoke bomb released by that guy himself! We can't give up this opportunity to test him for a while, to find out what he's been doing!"
"Send a surveillance ship. I want to know where the Paradise Islands are and what's there! On the other side of the Paradise Islands, Borsalino, you lead the warship to test it out. No problem?"
Hearing Sengoku's order, the corner of Kizaru's mouth twitched, and he nodded in response.
"Okay!"
After seeing that Kizaru agreed, Sengoku looked at Aokiji and Akainu again and issued another command:
"The Beehive Island operation is left to you, Sakazuki, Kuzan!"
Hearing the words, a red light flashed in Akainu's eyes, and he nodded calmly:
"Finally going to confront that guy again? I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"
Aokiji's face darkened, his serious eyes showing concern:
"Do you want to start a war with him? Do we need to inform the World Government?"
Sengoku shook his head and said in a deep voice:
"This time, it's just a trial! There's no need to notify the government. We Marines also need to have our own action plan and operational control!"
After the major event at Sabaody Archipelago, in the past two years, Sengoku has placed more emphasis on cultivating Marine's self-will. It is no longer like before, where everything was obeyed by the orders of the World Government and decided by them!
What Rob said during the concert's live broadcast has had a continuous impact not only among common people but also within the "justice" army, the Marines. From high-ranking Admirals and Vice Admirals to middle-ranking Rear Admirals and lower-ranking Marine officers, all have different levels of confusion.
Among them, the most confused is Aokiji, the Admiral of Headquarters. The current Aokiji is already in a bad mood.
Quickly, the arrangement at Marine Headquarters was carried out.
New World—
Inside Whitebeard's territory.
Hearing the news that Rob was going to take action on Beehive Island, Whitebeard's expression was full of emotion and nostalgia. He spoke directly:
"Beehive Island? Gurarara... It really reminds me of my youth!"
"However, this matter has nothing to do with us! Since Ochoku chose to provoke Rob's big trouble, then he will solve it by himself, and it has nothing to do with us!"
"It's just a good time to use this opportunity to see what amazing things Rob has come up with this year!"
Hearing what his father said, Marco smiled and replied:
"Got it, Father. I'll have people keep an eye on the movements at Beehive Island!"
Hearing this, Whitebeard nodded and said nothing more.
...
Among the temporary camps of the Red Hair Pirates—
Shanks looked at the information in his hand.
The red-haired man, Shanks, with a serious expression, said in a deep voice:
"Have you finally acted, Rob? Let me see what kind of surprise you have prepared for the whole world! There shouldn't be any surprises on the Marine side, right?"
"There should be a battle between Rob's forces and the Marines both on Beehive Island and the Paradise Islands. I just don't know what form it will take and to what extent it will break out!"
For the final result of the battles in these two places, Shanks was quite looking forward to it. No matter which side wins, it won't have much impact on the current balance of the sea. But if Rob's Paradise Islands remain mysterious and unknown, it will always make people uneasy.
Exactly—Shanks is also quite looking forward to the Marines testing the power of the Paradise Islands!
Today is different. When Rob embarked on the road of fighting for supremacy, Shanks knew very well that it was difficult for them to return to the previous peaceful state with Rob.
Naturally, Shanks wants to know about Rob too!
At this very moment—
The eyes of the world began to focus on the two places, Paradise Islands and Beehive Island. Everyone wants to know what Rob will show this time!
And the power displayed this time, the protagonist should not be Rob, the "world's strongest" who has been certified many times, but the "power possessed by some of Rob's subordinates..."
Half a month has passed.
Now—
The largest guard island of the Paradise Island, and also the entire Paradise Archipelago, is an island set up for external contact, guarded and managed by the first cultivated Seraphim, Aquarius.
On the sea.
The huge Angel, and the four ships which are all the same in style, size, and configuration, but the large warships with different representative symbols painted on the sails are constantly replenishing various nautical supplies!
Onshore.
Rob, who is two meters tall, is wearing casual clothes, with a magic tunic pinned to his waist, and a cloak with epaulettes on his shoulders.
"So—"
Turning around, Rob looked at Robin, Uta, and Makino beside him. With a serious face, he said:
"Everything in the Paradise Islands will be handed over to you! If it is really as we expected, if there are enemies coming to attack, the first priority is..."
Rob didn't finish his sentence.
Uta quickly replied:
"Protect yourself! Hehehe..."
A gentle smile appeared on her face.
Rob reached out and touched Uta's little head, saying:
"It's good to know!"
After giving further instructions to Robin, Uta, and Makino, Rob turned around and waved his hand:
"Set sail!"
Following behind Rob, the four Seraphim followed directly. The four Seraphim, as well as their T1 Terminators, were all wearing the same combat uniform and cape, but the logos on them were different, each representing the constellation patterns corresponding to their names.
Rob personally didn't care much about these details. It was Makino who seemed to enjoy designing these things, so she designed these clothes for the Twelve Seraphim and their artificial weapon troops in her spare time.
Naturally, it was something that just made them happy.
I have to say, though, as soon as this standard costume came out, the Seraphim Legion had a more formal feel than the regular army. It looked really pleasing to the eye and had a sense of pride.
Quickly, the Angel and the four warships sailed directly away from Aquarius Island and slowly disappeared at the end of the sea level.
Once the Angel and the four warships had completely disappeared, Robin's face became serious:
"Oni-chan is on the voyage! The next Paradise Islands will be guarded by us! From now on, until Oni-chan returns, the Paradise Islands will directly enter the highest level of security!"
"Any unknown ships that come within range of the Paradise Islands—all of them are to be directly sunk and absolutely not allowed to approach here!"
Hearing Robin's words, both Uta and Makino nodded seriously and did not deny her decision. When Rob was away, among the three of them, it was Robin who made the decisions.
At this moment, the remaining eight Seraphim who stayed in the Paradise Islands all responded and quickly went down to arrange Robin's order.
With her hands on her hips, Robin showed off her graceful figure with a proud face:
"An enemy that cannot even break through the defense of the outer islands of the Paradise Islands is not worth our time!"
