Chapter 420 Occupying the high ground of public opinion! (2-in-1)
Katakuri was rather pessimistic about the prospects of his Big Mom Pirates. MAMA was tricked by the navy and fell into a coma after being attacked by himself. Although his life was not in danger, he lost an emperor-level warrior. The powerful Big Mom Pirates have completely fallen into passivity.
If they had to face only the people from the naval headquarters led by Kuzan, relying on the human sea tactics and the strength of their cadres, Katakuri was confident that they could win this war, but the new navy's The sudden addition completely tilted the balance of the war towards the Navy Headquarters.
After just a brief confrontation, Katakuri clearly realized how powerful Mihawk was. Together, they could hold off Kuzan and Mihawk for a short time. But if such people join forces, they I'm afraid these people will have to answer here.
The Big Mom Pirates do have a large number of people, but in a war of this level, the number of people cannot be completely determined. The top combat power is the key factor that determines the direction of the war.
Katakuri has been in the Big Mom Pirates for so many years. He knows the strength of his pirate cadres and subordinates very well. If the brothers lose, no one can stop Kuzan and Mihawk. A strong man of this level.
not to mention.
Katakuri stopped in front of Mihawk and Kuzan, and ordered his brothers to take MAMA to leave first. While alerting the enemy, Katakuri also turned his head slightly and looked outside the battlefield. That slender warship.
He could sense with his Haki knowledge that on that warship, there was another person with an extremely powerful aura who was guarding the ship and did not join the battlefield.
Katakuri guessed that the strong man staying on the warship should be Jiguoyuanyi's most capable subordinate, the former Vice Admiral Yixiao.
These people have already appeared here, so Jiguo Enichi should also be on the ship.
Enichi Tsukuni's aura was different, as if he could merge with the heaven and earth. Katakuri's aura of seeing and hearing color could not sense Enichi Tsukuni's aura.
But Katakuri guessed that as the leader of the new navy, Enichi Tsukuni would not miss such a war.
The other party has not taken action yet, probably because the battle situation is under his control!
Katakuri thought of many things in his mind, and the decision to retreat was made after careful consideration. If he didn't leave now, his brothers might not be able to leave after the rest of the New Navy took action one after another!
Dafuku and Owen were obviously aware of the uncontrollable changes in the battle situation at this time. After hearing Katakuri's order, they only hesitated slightly and immediately escorted Big Mom to escape.
Just before leaving, he shouted to Katakuri and Cracker: "You must follow me, you two!"
Seeing that the other party was planning to escape, Kuzan had no intention of letting him go. His feet suddenly turned into a ball of ice mist, and he rose into the sky, intending to pursue Dafu, Owen and others.
However, as soon as he moved, Katakuri, who had always been on guard, immediately took action.
"Your opponent is me!"
Katakuri's right hand turned into a white glutinous ball, and his fist quickly expanded into the shape of a mace. Then he threw it towards the sky, his arm quickly extended and stretched, and he shot directly towards Kuzan.
Cut and cut rice cakes!
While Katakuri was attacking with his fist and intercepting Kuzan, Keliqi also tightened the long sword in his hand, kicked his feet on the ground, and rushed directly towards Mihawk not far away. While taking action, the two biscuit men he summoned also quickly attacked Mihawk from both sides.
"Huh?" Kuzan, who was high in the sky, noticed Katakuri's attack and murmured softly. His body suddenly stopped in the air and he quickly condensed an ice sword in his hand to block it in front of him.
"clang!!!"
After a crisp sound, Katakuri's fist hit the ice with Kuzan's body. His power successfully suppressed Kuzan in mid-air.
"boom!!!!"
The fist thrown by Katakuri brought Kuzan's body down from the air quickly, and directly smashed Kuzan into the ice. After a loud noise, the ice field shook, the ice surface shattered, and Kuzan's figure was also hit. Buried by rising ice crystals.
After Katakuri's attack, his arm that turned into a glutinous ball slowly retracted and quickly returned to its original shape. However, before he could check the effect of his attack, a sudden explosion erupted on the ice field not far away. There was a powerful overlord-like domineering aura.
"What?!" Katakuri looked stunned and quickly turned his head to look. He happened to see Mihawk suddenly swinging two slashes under the attack of Cracker, instantly killing the two cookies that were besieging him. The soldiers beheaded them and pierced them.
Seeing this scene, Katakuri's pupils shrank suddenly, and he hurriedly reminded Cracker who was attacking Mihawk: "Stop, Cracker! Run! Run quickly!"
However, Katakuri's reminder was a little late after all. After Mihawk killed the cookie soldier with two swords, his figure quickly dodged past Cracker. It was just a wrong body move. Cracker's There was already a long stab wound on his chest.
However, Cracker himself seemed to have no consciousness. After passing by Mihawk, he rushed forward for more than ten steps before he felt the heavy feeling on his feet, the strong feeling of weakness and dizziness. , passed into Cracker's brain.
"puff--"
Blood splattered on his chest, and Krick's hand that was holding the long knife couldn't help but loosen at this moment. Then his feet went soft, and he fell on the ice with a thud. Blood continued to flow from the wound, and soon formed a There was a small pool of blood.
Mihawk raised the knife with both hands and maintained the posture of drawing the knife. After Klijia fell to the ground, Mihawk slowly put away his posture and closed his eyes slightly:
"A pirate who is kind and righteous is still a pirate after all."
"Live the rest of your life in Impel Down."
Cracker was defeated by the serious Mihawk in one confrontation. Seeing his brother lying in a pool of blood, Katakuri's pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes instantly filled with bloodshot eyes, and he roared angrily:
"You guy, I'm going to kill you!!!"
The powerful overlord-colored Haki centered on Katakuri, directly formed a strong air flow, rapidly spreading towards the surroundings, instantly covering the entire battlefield.
Whether they were navy or pirates, there were some weak people who were directly shocked and lost consciousness by this powerful overlord's domineering energy.
However, Katakuri's domineering haki has no way of affecting him when he actually faces his opponent.
"There are flaws"
Just when Katakuri was about to take action against Mihawk and avenge his brother, a slightly cold voice sounded from behind Katakuri.
Before he could even turn around, Katakuri suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and a slender arm wrapped around his neck from behind.
The ice spread rapidly on Katakuri's body, and there was a sense of sluggishness in his mind. He was so dizzy that he completely lost consciousness in an instant.
Time capsule!
Kuzan's semi-elemental figure appeared behind Katakuri, and instantly froze his opponent when he was distracted.
Katakuri's domineering spirit is indeed very strong, but after seeing his brother lying in a pool of blood and losing his cool, he finally exposed his fatal flaw in front of a powerful enemy like Kuzan. Katakuri's tall body was frozen into an ice man.
Kuzan's figure fell back from the air, and his eyes glanced at Kelikjia who fell on the ice. With a slight movement of his fingers, thick frost soon completely covered Kelikjia's body.
After defeating Cracker and Katakuri, Mihawk and Kuzan both turned their heads and looked towards the distant horizon. At this moment, Prometheus, who was holding Big Mom's huge body, Si had already flown a thousand meters and was about to disappear from sight.
Seeing that the pursuit was hopeless, Mihawk put away the knife with a calm expression and walked towards the warship in the distance.
The battle between the Navy Headquarters and the pirates is still going on, but Mihawk has no intention of continuing to take action. He is only interested in powerful opponents, and he really can't get interested in facing the miscellaneous fish.
"This time. Thank you."
"Is Sakaski in your hands?"
"What are you going to do?"
Kuzan suddenly stopped Mihawk who was about to leave and asked. Mihawk stopped when he heard this and turned his head slightly: "It's true that he is in our hands."
"Yuanyi has no intention of killing him."
"Just don't worry."
After Mihawk finished speaking, he ignored Kuzan and left the battlefield without stopping.
The members of the Big Mom Pirates received orders to retreat one after another. However, without their backbone, even if they retreated, they could not be as orderly as the army.
The retreat soon turned into a rout, and then into a one-sided pursuit.
After Katakuri and Clark were defeated one after another, the war lasted for several hours. Although the navy's high-end combat power achieved an overwhelming victory, the number of the navy was still too large after all. Less, compared to a hundred thousand pirates.
Even if they pursue victory, the casualties are still high.
In the subsequent war between the Navy and the Big Mom Pirates, the New Navy did not continue to participate. Their main purpose was just to ensure the Navy's victory. After the situation was under control, Mihawk and others returned to the ship one after another.
Watching the final direction of this war from a distance.
The live broadcast for the people of the world has not been closed. After the ordinary people saw the power of the new navy, they immediately saw the terrifying strength of the navy headquarters.
Under the continuous pursuit of the headquarters, the Big Mom Pirates suffered heavy casualties. The bodies of pirates were everywhere on the ice field. The whole battlefield was filled with evil spirits. Even through the screen, the people could intuitively feel the tragedy of the battlefield.
The bright sunshine falls from the sky, dispelling some of the cold air on the ice sheet.
The navy members of the headquarters who returned to the harbor cheered loudly, celebrating the victory of this war and celebrating that they had once again survived the tragic battlefield.
When they return to their headquarters, most of them will get further opportunities.
Marines are accompanied by death, but they also have honor, power, and wealth.
There were a lot of pirates who fled in panic, forty to fifty thousand people, and the Big Mom Pirates lost nearly half of their members. Although the navy won this battle, the Big Mom Pirates still retain a strong fighting capacity.
The war with the Big Mom Pirates is far from over.
It took nearly a week for the ice that had frozen the port of Coco Island to melt away in large areas, and the navigation channel was restored to smooth flow.
After a week of recuperation, the navy has completely taken root on Coco Island. Under the control of the navy, Coco Island has also strengthened the coastline defenses during this period.
The Big Mom Pirates obviously have no intention of admitting defeat.
On the afternoon of the day when the battle at Coco Island ended, Big Mom woke up from a coma. After learning about the losses in that battle and that several of her children had fallen into the battlefield, Big Mom became furious and attacked that night. He attacked the Navy's branch on Licor Island and killed thousands of Navy personnel.
During the period when the ice-blocked port of Coco Island failed to recover, several other branches of the navy were attacked by Big Mom and his pirates.
Kuzan was too busy to go to the battlefield immediately, and among his subordinates, there were not that many people who could resist Big Mom. There was no other way, so Kuzan could only order and transfer all the navy back to Coco Island. Shrinking naval control of places.
In order to deal with possible pirate attacks, Kuzan also increased the number of patrol teams.
The situation has reached a stalemate.
The navy did not rush in. They hibernated and waited quietly for the reinforcements led by Kizaru to arrive.
Those members of the New Navy disappeared from the sight of both the navy and the pirates after the battle on Coco Island.
No one knows what the new navy has in mind.
Facing the new navy with unknown purpose, the navy of the headquarters behaved relatively calmly. Judging from that battle, the new navy and them should not be enemies.
The Big Mom Pirates obviously had scruples. After taking back five islands, the Big Mom Pirates did not act rashly.
They are not afraid of dragging on with the navy at all. The longer it takes, the more beneficial it is to them.
This time the Navy launched a full-scale war. It can be said that it used all the power it could mobilize and mobilized elites from all over the world to fight this war. If there is no way to solve it in a short time, the fundamentals of the Navy will be shaken.
During the time when the war with the Big Mom Pirates started, the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line were not peaceful. Not only were the pirates raging, but the Revolutionary Army of the Four Seas was also developing very rapidly.
News about the revolutionary army often appears in the big news published in newspapers every day. What also annoyed the World Government and the Navy was that Morgans' newspapers not only had many reports on the Revolutionary Army, but they were also all positive.
Newspapers described Long's revolutionary army as heroes who rescued the people
At the same time, there are also some articles that occupy a lot of newspaper space, including the new navy and the country's fate. The editor of the newspaper does not know where he got some "secrets" that happened within the navy that year, and he opened a special column about it. Following Kunoyuan's various incidents since he entered the navy, a character history is serialized.
All kinds of legendary secrets are trapped in Jiguo Yuanyi's body.
Enichi Tsukuni was also described by the media as a legendary warrior who bravely fought the evil dragon. As for who the evil dragon was.
navy? World government? Pirates? The Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land?
The people naturally have their own judgment.
The "biography" of Jiguo Enichi has been widely discussed by people around the world. The impact of that live broadcast was amplified invisibly, and Jiguo Yuanyi's personal reputation also reached a terrifying level.
This afternoon.
The mighty naval fleet, led by Kizaru, arrived at Coco Island to join Kuzan's troops.
At the same time, a red stream of light also fell into a certain area of the ocean far away from the world.
The warship bumped gently with the rise and fall of the waves.
"despair"
A stream of light fell from the sky, and with a soft sound from the deck, a figure stood on the deck of the Dawn warship.
"I'm finally back."
Ji Guoyuan held his hand lightly on the long knife at his waist, with a dusty look on his face.
"Let's start finishing!"
Turning around and looking at Wan Guo in the distance, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. At this time, Yixiao and others on the deck also noticed Ji Guoyuan who returned to the ship, and everyone gathered around Ji Guoyuan. around.
