Chapter 956 The 9 Snake Pirates
"Ugh!"
Zhan Guo put down the casualty report in his hand and sighed.
The situation, which was originally good, suddenly turned around.
This was something that the Warring States period had not expected.
The situation suddenly became difficult.
Then he picked up an urgent document from the first half of the Grand Line.
Looking at the information above, Zhan Guo's heart sank again.
"The Nine Snakes Pirates have appeared. The captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates, Boa Hancock, the current queen of the Amazon Lily Kingdom, attacked the World Government ship, killing hundreds of people on board and looting all the finances!"
This sudden incident gave Zhan Guo a huge headache.
In the photo, a large ship pulled by two sea beasts comes into view.
"I didn't expect that the Nine Snakes Pirates, which have been silent for many years, would also come out? The empress of this generation is not simple!"
Sengoku looked at the information collected from the World Government.
"Pirate Boa Hancock, the owner of three colors of domineering, the user of the superhuman Sweet-Sweet Fruit, anyone who is impressed by her beauty will be petrified, and her combat power is powerful!"
This is the latest news from the World Government CP organization.
It gave Zhan Guo a headache.
The most important thing is!
The Nine Snakes Pirates operated in the first half of the Grand Line.
It posed a great threat to the safety of the first half of the Grand Line.
Moreover, it is located in the calm belt, and if something goes wrong, it will have to drill into the calm belt to avoid the navy's encirclement, which is very annoying.
Although nowadays, due to the emergence of the Rockefeller Kingdom, seastone ship bottoms and new ships that can replace wind power have been realized ahead of time.
But they are still a minority after all, and the navy does not have many such ships.
It would be extremely difficult to hunt down the Nine Snakes Pirates in the vast Calm Belt with just a few warships, just like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Without an organized formation, it is impossible to find it.
no way!
In recent years, the navy has focused on restoring its strength.
Most of the funds were used to recruit soldiers and upgrade weapons and equipment.
The ship did not undergo much refitting.
This also led to the fact that in the First World War, the navy had no advantage in warships.
Being suppressed by the Rockefeller Kingdom.
Zhan Guo saw that most of the casualties were caused by artillery fire.
The navy was actually beaten so badly by the opposing warships that it couldn't even raise its head.
This is absolutely not okay!
Zhan Guo slapped the table.
Thinking about the warship's replacement.
Since it is impossible to replenish the soldiers quickly, let's arrange the equipment first.
First, build a hundred or so ironclad ships.
It is also necessary to build some ships that can sail in the doldrums.
It was when Zhan Guo thought about this that he felt overwhelmed.
The cost of building an ironclad ship is equivalent to that of five sailing ships.
A ship that can ignore the doldrums and is equipped with seastones is equivalent to ten other naval warships.
The most important thing is that seastone is still in the hands of the Rockefeller Kingdom.
The thought of having to send money to the Rockefeller Kingdom gave Zhan Guo an even bigger headache.
If we build more than ten ships, plus a hundred ironclad ships, it will probably take at least ten or eight years to replace them.
But the threat posed by the Nine Snakes Pirates cannot be ignored.
It’s really a headache.
a long time!
Zhan Guo made up his mind and made the final decision.
建。
It must be built!
Even if only one or two ships are built, the deterrent power of the navy must be maintained to prevent the Nine Snakes Pirates from acting recklessly.
We'll find the Amazon Lily Kingdom deep in the doldrums and destroy it in one fell swoop.
Zhan Guo's gaze became firm.
There was also a murderous aura emanating from him.
It's really amazing that no one dares to provoke the navy.
I thought everyone was from the Rockefeller Kingdom.
You must fight.
Hit him hard!
Sengoku made up his mind and as soon as the ship was built, he would immediately send Kizaru to destroy them.
By the way, destroy the Amazon Lily Kingdom deep in the Calm Belt and completely eliminate this kingdom of pirates.
It just so happened that Kizaru had just become the admiral and his prestige was insufficient, so he made up for it with this.
Zhan Guo was calculating silently in his mind.
But he would never have thought of it.
The development of events often surprises him.
The first half of the Grand Line.
A sea area near the doldrums.
The sea is calm.
Quiet and peaceful.
suddenly!
A delicate sound was heard.
A voice with a hint of arrogance and pride was heard.
"No matter what I do, the whole world will forgive me, because I am so beautiful!"
A proud voice sounded.
A large ship suddenly sailed out from the doldrums and appeared in the first half of the Grand Line.
A ship pulled by two giant sea snakes appeared on the sea.
on board.
A group of hot and scantily clad women stood on the boat.
And at the bow.
A tall, angel-like woman, like a bright pearl, radiating dazzling light, stood at the bow with a cold look. Her slender fingers pointed forward firmly, and her face was filled with a confident smile, as warm and dazzling as the spring sun, but also with a feeling of keeping people at a distance.
She is the Queen of Amazon Lily Kingdom, Boa Hancock.
"Hancock, you have to face the reality. We are no match for the Navy. Why do we have to keep an eye on the Navy?"
Next to Hancock, a short old woman with wrinkles on her face looked at Hancock seriously.
"Shut up, you old man. No matter what I do, you will forgive me?"
Hancock held the newspaper against her chest, with a crazy look on her face.
Mother New looked at Hancock in silence.
The newspaper on her chest was a piece of news about the recent battle between the Ice Queen Esdeath of the Rockefeller Kingdom and the Navy Admiral Aokiji.
Even though she was in the doldrums, Boa Hancock always kept an eye out for news about Lady Esdeath.
This time, after hearing that Esdeath defeated the navy, he could not sit still and immediately went out to sea. Despite the obstruction of Grandma New, he planned to enter the New World to find Lord Esdeath.
"Lord Esdeath!"
Hancock pressed herself against the newspaper, as if she could become one with Esdeath, with a shy look on her face.
"Alas! There is no hope!"
Granny New sighed.
Then I took a look at today's newspaper.
"Promote Vice Admiral Borsalino to Admiral, codenamed Yellow Monkey Borsalino. The Navy will usher in an unprecedented era of three admirals to suppress the sea!"
This is the latest news.
It seems that both the World Government and the Navy are feeling the pressure.
Grandma New looked up the news again and found information about the Rockefeller Empire.
What came into her sight was the familiar figure.
Rockefeller Charlotte, the king of the Rockefeller Kingdom.
"I never thought that in the blink of an eye, more than 30 years have passed and you have become a leading figure of the times. It is really beyond my comprehension!"
Granny New stared at Charlotte's photo and murmured softly.
He in the photo still looks so young, as if time has left no trace on him. He is as vigorous and high-spirited as he was in his twenties.
