General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 771 Capture of King Shichibukai

Seven days later, a secret arrest operation was launched against the former king Shichibukai.

The announcement of the abolition of the Shichibukai System will be officially announced to the world through the news platform of World News Agency after the arrest.

This military operation is under the overall responsibility of the G5 branch, the strongest branch in the new world of the Navy, and is commanded and dispatched by Navy Admiral Lan Lin.

The target of this operation is the former King Shichibukai, the world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Jorah Kormihawk.

Former King of the Shichibukai, Pirate Empress, Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates, King of Amazon Lilly of the Daughter Country, Boya Hancock.

The former king of the Shichibukai, the captain of the terrifying barque pirates, Moonlight Moria.

Among the only four remaining Shichibukai, only the Golden Emperor Gilde Tezoro was not affected by the arrest of the Shichibukai because of the close cooperation he had with the World Government, and was simply removed. He took the title of Shichibukai.

In response to the above three big pirates who were within the capture range, the G5 branch dispatched three armies respectively.

To capture the most threatening and powerful Hawkeye, Lieutenant General Thunder Dragon and General Red Heart of G5 led Seraph S Eagle, S Crocodile, S Flamingo, and a small number of pacifist elites to capture catch.

This powerful lineup is enough to show the importance they attach to Hancock and the Nine Snakes Pirates.

Although Rorschach, as the supreme commander of this operation, was fully capable and capable of capturing any of the above-mentioned King Shichibukai on his own, he still chose to watch and supervise the battle in the paradise without any intention of directly intervening.

Against the Nine Snakes Pirates, who had the largest number of troops and almost all of them practiced domineering, they dispatched an entire White Wolf fleet led by Vice Admiral Hibari, Vice Admiral White Wolf, and Vice Admiral Titan.

"Yes, so no matter whether Boa Hancock discovers the whereabouts of our army, there is no need to change the battle plan. We are originally here to encircle and capture all members of the Nine Snakes Pirates including Hancock. There is a daughter country Here, Hancock has nowhere to escape and will definitely rely on Kuji Island to resist. We only need to surround Kuji Island, conduct a fire coverage attack on the island, and then land on the island to fight. Yamato and I will cooperate, 100%. We can successfully take down Hancock."

"I'll go up and take a look." Yamato jumped onto the side of the ship and was about to board Nine Snake Island to check it out, but Hibari raised his hand to stop him.

From Yamato's perspective, in the town in front of him, except for some animals and poultry left behind, there was indeed no breath of human life.

In addition to the two Seraphs, each of the ten warships is equipped with five Pacifists, which greatly enhances the fleet's medium and long-range combat capabilities.

Nine Snake Island is not big, and she can cover less than half of the island by letting go of her domineering power.

Ten large warships of the 200-meter class opened their steam outer wheels and headed towards the location of Nine Snakes Island at full speed.

Skylark looked at the two Seraphs standing aside.

Soldiers must learn to judge for themselves and grow up in the flames of war and blood.

The last two remaining Seraphs, S Bat and S Shark, followed Smoker to the Devil's Triangle.

Skylark was full of confidence in his words, pointing to the map of the Daughter Country in front of him.

As for the casualties that may occur during military operations, although Rorschach has purchased as many pacifists as possible to enhance the navy's combat capabilities, the various fatal factors on the battlefield are treacherous and changeable. No matter how much he considers it, Thoughtful and unavoidable.

Therefore, what Skylark needs to consider is the way to play with the least casualties.

To deal with the terrifying three-masted pirate group, which is the weakest and least threatening, a part of the sharp-edged fleet led by Vice Admiral White Bear, Vice Admiral White Smoke, and Vice Admiral Red Flag was dispatched.

It is true that the Pirate Empress is powerful and can be regarded as one of the most powerful female pirates in the world.

I saw that the buildings on Nine Snake Island were deserted, not a single person was left, only the empty streets were left.

Not to mention two people taking action at the same time, even Yamato alone would probably be enough.

On the leading warship, Skylark, Yamato, Pamel, Penn and others were discussing the final battle plan.

Skylark shook his head and said: "No need, there is no one on the island."

If the superiors are allowed to do everything themselves, the soldiers under their command will only become flowers in the greenhouse, unable to withstand the ravages of strong winds and waves.

Yamato scratched his head and looked at Hibari in confusion, "How do you know?"

"It's normal to be discovered. Although we tried our best to hide the fleet's whereabouts along the way, we wanted to secretly enter the windless zone and get close to the waters off the Amazon Lily Kingdom. But the target of ten large warships is too big, no matter how we hide it, we can't do it To perfection. Moreover, the Shichibukai are the biggest pirates after the Four Emperors. Although their power is not large in the New World, they are intricately connected in their respective territories and cannot be underestimated. It is even possible that we have not yet. Before setting off, they have already arranged for a mole within the navy to reveal the information about the capture operation in advance.”

"Where are the people? Could it be that the Pirate Empress has fled the Windless Zone with all the citizens of the Daughter Kingdom?" Penn was surprised and unsure.

The majestic ancient palace was built against the mountain, like a silent giant, quietly watching the menacing naval fleet.

Yamato was confused.

Peng Enhui reported: "Lieutenant Admiral Skylark, Lieutenant General Yamato, the reconnaissance ship we sent to the waters near Kuji Island lost contact three minutes ago, and it is speculated that it has been successfully intercepted by the Kuji Pirates. I want the Pirate Empress Our arrival should have been discovered in advance, should we make strategic adjustments?”

Calm sea area.

"How is it impossible?" Skylark chuckled, "You probably don't know that Lieutenant General Vergo, the former G5 branch base commander, was Doflamingo's spy inside the navy. As early as more than ten years ago, he As a new recruit, he joined the navy. With the cooperation of the Don Quixote family, he repeatedly made great achievements and gradually climbed to the high position of lieutenant general in the headquarters. This is what we discovered and has not been discovered. No one knows how many more are hidden.”

The world is too big and the sea is too vast. The navy needs more elite warriors instead of just a few top combat forces.

Rorschach himself is responsible for supervising the battle during this operation and providing support at any time for any changes that the three teams may encounter.

The Demon-Slaying Order-style saturation fire strike is the most effective combat plan.

"Impossible! Even if Hancock had that kind of courage, Kuji would not be able to gather so many ships that can leave the windless zone in a short period of time. In the entire Kuji pirate group, only Hancock's ship has safely passed through the windless zone. Wind Belt's ability to transport citizens using ordinary ships will only be swallowed up by the Sea King type," Skylark asserted.

However, when the White Wolf Fleet successfully resisted the waters of Kuja Island, Hibari found that he still underestimated the pirate empress.

But if they had to face Hibari and Yamato at the same time, they would definitely not be their opponents.

"Then where can they run to?"

The purpose of this operation, in addition to the capture of King Shichibukai, was also the purpose of training troops to hone the war weapons Seraph and the second-generation pacifist for joint operations with the G5 fleets.

This time, they brought S Little Bear and S Snake Girl.

"A mole? Is this possible?" Yunque's calm analysis surprised Penn and made him unbelievable.

"What? That Lieutenant General Guizhu Vergo, who is famous in the new world and famous for his iron-blooded killings, is actually a spy for the pirates?" Penn was shocked.

Hibari raised his hand and pointed at the top of his head, "I have seen the situation on the entire Kuji Island with my knowledge and knowledge. Hancock is indeed not here, nor are the Kuji Pirates, nor the citizens of the Daughter Country."

"What? Have you used your knowledge and knowledge to find out all the situations on the island?"

Yamato was stunned and couldn't believe it.

She thought to herself that her Sense of Color Haki should be stronger than Hibari's, but even she couldn't cover the entire Nine Snakes Island with Sense of Color on a warship.

Maybe the people in the Nine Snakes Town ahead have hid behind the Nine Snakes Mountain.

Because of this, she wanted to go to the island to have a look, use the color of knowledge to scan, and get a feel for it.

But who knows, Skylark actually said that her knowledge and color can radiate to the entire Nine Snake Island here. Doesn't that mean that from the warship to the coastline on the other side of Nine Snake Island, it is just the radius of the coverage range of Skylark's knowledge and color?
But, how is this possible?
Although the Nine Snake Island in front of us is not that big, the distance from here to the other side of the island is at least the size of several ghost islands. Yamato roughly estimated that it should be more than seven or eight kilometers.

If what Hibari said is true, it means that Hibari's perception range of Haki is at least three times that of hers.

That's why Yamato couldn't believe it.

She looked up following the skylark's finger, but didn't find anything special in the sky.

Just when Yamato was confused, her eyes suddenly opened slightly, as if she saw something, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"So that's it, I almost forgot that you also have this ability. With the increase of this thing, the coverage area of ​​your knowledge and color domineering will indeed be much wider, just like the two perverted guys Eniro and Rorschach, Damn, what an enviable ability.”

Yamato looked envious.

Under her careful observation, Yamato quickly noticed that there was not nothing in the sky above everyone.

Wisps of tiny flashing arcs spread out from the dark clouds released by Skylark, spread silently, and filled the surrounding sea. At this time, they also filled the sky of Nine Snake Island in front of them.

It is through these arcs that spread over that Skylark has greatly increased his own domineering power, allowing him to have first-person observation abilities like Rorschach and Enel, which far exceed those of others.

The average person's kenwense haqi can only perceive the breath fluctuations of other creatures at most. Unless they are already familiar with the other person's breath, they cannot see the appearance of the object sensed by kenwense.

But Enel and Rorschach, who can control thunder and lightning, are different. Those tiny electric arcs that extend out become their perspective, allowing them to directly see the things they perceive with their own eyes from a long distance away.

The same is true for Skylark at this time.

Through her cloud fruit ability that can create thunder clouds, she releases thunder and lightning that can greatly enhance her own perception of sight, hearing, color, and spreads to an extremely long distance. In this way, she can obtain a range of sight, hearing, and color perception that far exceeds that of Yamato.

Although her overall strength is not as good as Yamato for the time being, Hibari has successfully surpassed Yamato in the aspect of seeing and hearing, and is ranked third in the entire G5, second only to Rorschach and Eniro.

Just like now, Hibari successfully found the traces of the disappeared Kuja Pirates through the spreading and extending thunder and lightning.

She turned her head and looked to the right side of Kuja Island and ordered: "Everyone listen to the order and follow me towards Ruskaina Island in my daughter's country. Boya Hancock has moved there with the Kuja Pirates. went."

"I actually went there. No wonder there's no one here."

Penn suddenly understood, then his face became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "These are difficult to deal with. With the elite level of the Nine Snakes Pirates and the geographical environment of Ruskaina Island, our combat plan may be greatly compromised. ”

Pamel faithfully turned the rudder and headed in the direction directed by Skylark.

Yamato looked at Penn and asked in confusion: "Why? Is Rusna Island so powerful?"

"It's Ruskaina Island." Skylark corrected.

she explained.

"Ruskaina Island is an uninhabited desert island near Kuji Island. The island's geographical environment is dangerous, the climate is changeable, there are many beasts, and the virgin forest is densely covered. Even if it is as powerful as the Kuji Pirates, there are usually few will go there.”

"The most terrifying thing there are the ferocious beasts that have survived from ancient times. Many of them are extremely powerful, comparable to the murderers who took the IQ potion on Vermeio Island. Some are even stronger. Even the lives of lieutenant generals and superiors in this department are in danger. It is said that The selection criteria for the female warriors of the Nine Snakes Pirates is to stay alive on the island for three days and three nights.”

"Coupled with the island's rugged geographical environment of high mountains and low valleys, it is estimated that even the saturated firepower coverage of the Demon Slayer Order will be difficult to hit the people hiding in the center of the island."

Yamato was not stupid. He quickly understood what Hibari meant and frowned: "What should we do?"

"It would be great if Brother Rorschach or Enel were here." Skylark muttered softly.

"What did you say?" Yamato asked after not hearing clearly.

Skylark waved his hands hurriedly: "It's nothing. I mean, the original battle plan remains unchanged. Everyone will obey my orders and fire at any time. Once the fire is fired, there is no need to stop, and all the artillery shells brought this time will be fired at once. Regardless. If Hancock wants to use Ruskaina Island to stop our attack, we will just blow it up!"

"Yes! Lieutenant General!" The captains of each warship agreed loudly, and each took their orders, waiting for Skylark's instructions with all their concentration.

Ten minutes later, on the sea outside Ruskaina Island, ten warships stopped at a distance of less than a hundred meters, slowly spread out to the left and right, and began to circle the island, which was slightly larger than Nine Snake Island. Encirclement operations.

The three-layer artillery on the side of the warship was pointed in the direction of the island under the constant adjustment of a sailor. The first shell had been loaded and was ready to be fired at any time.

On the inside of the ship's side, five huge pacifists were lined up. They raised their hands in the distance and opened their mouths, ready to shoot laser beams at any time.

On the deck, hundreds of soldiers armed with the navy's newly developed repeating muskets, rocket launchers, howitzers, and Gatling guns were holding their guns intently, waiting for the command from the rear admiral and captain behind them to open fire with all their strength.

Hibari stood on the bow of the warship in the center, standing side by side with Yamato, looking at a group of female pirates who appeared on the coast of the island in front of them.

Standing between the two tall female pirates, a beautiful woman with an arrogant expression and cold eyes was the target of their trip, the pirate empress, Boya Hancock.

Looking at the warships that were pulling away and slowly surrounding the island where he was located, Hancock said nothing and slowly raised his right hand, about to swing it down hard.

Behind her were hundreds of elite warriors from the Nine Snakes Pirates.

Further away, in the mountains and forests, on the slopes, in the grasslands, there are women with weapons all over the mountains and plains.

Each of these women, covered with animal skins and armor, or with their chests exposed, held swords in their hands and bows and arrows on their shoulders. Their faces showed hatred, anger, and murderous intent, but there was no fear. They seemed to know no fear. What is it.

These women who exude a powerful aura are citizens of the Daughter Kingdom, and are also reserve pirates of the Nine Snakes Pirates, or some are simply retired pirates from the Nine Snakes Pirates.

From top to bottom, almost all the people in the daughter country are soldiers. Although the country is full of women, the folk customs are strong and everyone dares to fight.

Perhaps because only the strongest and most beautiful women can serve as kings, there is no real royal family or nobility in this country.

Therefore, unlike the nobles of other kingdoms who are overly guarded against the domestic civilians, the Daughter Kingdom does not strictly control the weapons and fighting skills of the domestic people. Instead, it allows the powerful female pirates of the Nine Snakes Pirates to take the initiative Teach the people how to practice domineering and physical skills.

This makes the women in the Daughter Kingdom, as long as they are adult women, basically all of them are powerful and fierce warriors. Most of them have awakened armed domineering energy due to their hard training since childhood, and can wrap their domineering energy around bows, arrows and swords. A powerful attack.

Like the Kingdom of Flowers in the West Sea, the Kingdom of Girls is also a country founded by pirates. The kings of the Kingdom of Girls in the past are also the captains of the Nine Snakes Pirates, and they are the faith of all people in the entire kingdom.

In their spare time, the female pirates of the Nine Snakes Pirates will serve as guards of the palace, or return to towns and become ordinary citizens, reclaiming farmland, planting crops, hunting, and fishing.

And when necessary, these women will go to sea with the Nine Snakes Pirates to carry out plunder, rob merchant ships that accidentally enter the windless zone, or directly go to sea and leave the windless zone to rob the towns in the paradise sea area and rob the needed goods. supplies and money.

Even before Boya Hancock was invited to become the King of the Shichibukai, the Nine Snakes Pirates also plundered the Navy's warships and the World Government's official ships without giving the Navy any shame.

To a certain extent, these female pirates who don't need to rely on men do more crazy, bloody and cruel things than male pirates.

It was through this continuous plundering that the Daughter Kingdom gained huge wealth, and built a luxurious and splendid palace without having its own mature industrial chain.

Starting from Ancient Loliosa in the Rocks era, to Shaqi, and then to Hancock, the Kuja Pirates have been active on the sea and are one of the few powerful pirate groups on the sea with women as captains.

Seeing Hancock's right hand that was about to wave, Hibari standing on the bow of the warship spoke loudly.

"Boya Hancock! On behalf of the Navy Headquarters and the World Government, I officially give you an announcement to the Nine Snakes Pirates."

"Your title as King Shichibukai has been deprived of you, and now you and your pirate group have once again become criminals with a bounty on your head."

"We are here today to arrest you and all the pirates of the Nine Snakes Pirates. Now, on behalf of the navy, I am issuing a warning to you. Please put down your weapons and surrender immediately, otherwise our army will start shelling!"

Skylark's response was a sharp arrow shot by Sandasonia standing next to Hancock.

The sharp arrow was extremely fast and came through the air with a swish. The entire sword was pitch black and exuded a dangerous aura. It instantly crossed a distance of several hundred meters and headed straight for Skylark's door.

"Oh!"

A black stick shadow flashed in front of Skylark, smashing the whizzing arrows into pieces, causing a strong wind.

Yamato turned his wrist, put the mace on his shoulder, and looked at Hancock who was surrounded by the crowd with interest.

As Sandasonia's arrow shot out, thousands of Nine Snake female warriors standing on Ruskaina Island unstrung their bowstrings one after another, stringing their dark bows and arrows, and aimed at the navy's warships.

Yun Que ignored the danger in front of him and continued to shout: "Warning again! Boa Hancock, do you really want to fight to the end with your pirate group and your country?"

"Shut up to the Aijia!" Hancock said with a frosty voice, "Are you saying that the Aijia is stubbornly resisting? You have to understand one thing. The reason why the Aijia became a Shichibukai did not rely on the charity of your navy. If we want to start a war, you are the ones who should consider the consequences!”

After saying that, she didn't give Hibari a chance to speak again, and directly ordered the female pirates behind her to fire arrows.

At the same time, Skylark decisively gave the order to fire.

If we can't agree, let's start a fight.

At this time, even the kind-hearted Skylark would not show the kindness of a woman and delay the opportunity to fight.

So, the next moment, a hail of arrows roared out from Ruskaina Island, piercing the air, letting out a sharp howl like ghosts and wolves, and shooting at the warships that surrounded the island.

On the navy's side, the ten warships were firing on all cylinders. The densely packed three-layer artillery on the ship's hull let out a thundering roar, firing dark and heavy shells one after another, blasting into the island indiscriminately.

The pacifists fired dazzling lasers from their hands and mouths, faster than the incoming bows and arrows, and blasted into the accurately targeted crowd, instantly exploding into clouds of angry flames.

In an instant, the thunderous sound of artillery fire broke the silence of the windless zone, covering Ruskai, a desert island covered with dense virgin forests, with a layer of dazzling fiery red.

"Leave that woman to me!"

Yamato's body lifted up, countless snow-white hairs grew out, and fangs sprouted from his mouth. As soon as his recurved wolf claws stepped on the side of the ship, he disappeared from Hibari's sight. He held the mace and rushed forward. Ruskaina Island, hit Hancock with a stick.

"God's Foot! White Snake Drive!"
