One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Seeing what the other party did, the 100,000 naval elites below the square were extremely angry. But they didn't take action. The scene that just happened and their good military qualities told them that they were no match for the woman in front of them.

In the Shampoo Islands, reporters who saw this scene through the video phone bug were curious about Qian's identity.

Breaking into the navy headquarters alone and treating the 100,000 elite navy and the Shichibukai as if they were nothing, how could such courage remain unknown on the sea.

"That guy is Monkey D. Ann."

Finally, someone among the reporters recognized An’s identity.

Over the crescent-shaped bay, An ignored the murderous eyes of the navy below and looked at Warring States with provocative eyes.

"Hand over Ace and I can pretend nothing happened."

At this point, both sides have no room to turn around. Even if Warring States is willing, he can't agree in full view of the public.

What's more, it's impossible for the Warring States Period to agree!

In order to realize "the justice that reigns over the world"! He has staked everything!

Slightly raising the toad eyes on the bridge of his nose, Seng Guo looked sharply ahead under the reflective lenses.

"As long as we can eliminate the most vicious bloodline in the world and restore peace to the sea, the Navy is not afraid of any sacrifice!?"

The voice of Warring States fell, and deafening cheers erupted in the square.

The navy's carnival wave followed one after another, forming a strong wind that blew the pure white flags everywhere in Malinfando.

Above Navy Square, a passionate song of justice was played.

A burst of exclamation suddenly came from the communication room under the execution platform. A naval colonel in charge of communications hurried to the execution platform and shouted at Warring States.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period!! Execution in emergency situation!!!"

Warring States frowned and looked at the navy correspondent who ran up with an ugly expression.

"what happened?"

"Yes, the Door of Justice was opened without anyone issuing an order, and we have been unable to contact the power room!"

The navy, who had been bent over and gasping for air just now, immediately straightened up and reported loudly.

"I understand, you go down first!"

The moment An appeared, Sengoku guessed that the Whitebeard Pirates were not far from Marinevando, but he didn't know how they appeared.

Now it seems that the opponent's appearance method is still within the navy's default.

Seeing that the negotiations broke down, An stopped staying and turned around to fly towards the horizon.

Since war is destined to be inevitable, let this scarlet flower growing in blood bloom more beautifully!

"All navies! Enter combat status! Everyone is on alert!"

…

Gate of Justice.

Shortly after the Whitebeard Pirates passed, a cute Lion Pirate Ship also appeared here, riding the rapidly rotating rapids towards Impel Down City.

"Luffy, Ace will be fine!"

On the deck of the Sonny, Sanji patted Luffy on the shoulder, trying to comfort him, but this concern seemed to have no effect.

In the rest of the deck, Sauron, Franky, and Brooke were quietly wiping their weapons.

"Luffy, don't be distracted. We are about to reach Impel Down. By then, Jabba and I will restrain the guards, and the three of you will go to the last floor to rescue Ace."

Rayleigh, who had been standing on the bow of the ship observing the wind direction, looked at each other and Jabba beside him, and said to Luffy, who was particularly silent.

…

Naval Headquarters, Marineland Port.

With the navy under full martial law, artillery pieces were ready to fire, waiting for the enemy to appear.

During the short but long wait, a large shadow appeared at the end of the sea, immediately attracting the attention of all the navy.

"All artillerymen, get ready! The Whitebeard Pirate Fleet! It's coming!"

The commander of the first line of defense picked up the phone and gave the order.

"Crash--!!"

The water surges and the waves break.

One after another, strangely shaped pirate ships appeared above the sea level, splashing white waves as they headed towards Malinfando.

[Ice Witch] Whitebey, [Big Vortex Spider] Skuard, [Brothers Dekalban], [Diamond] Joz...

One by one, the great pirates who were famous in the new world appeared one after another, and they——

Without exception, they are all large fleets under the command of the Whitebeard Pirates.

In front of the huge pirate fleet is the Moby Dick, the flagship of the Whitebeard Pirates.

On the city wall outside the naval port, the commander of the artillery team had sweaty palms and secretly calculated the distance to the target.

Just wait for the opponent to enter the range, and launch a saturation bombardment together with the warship. Be sure to destroy the opponent's effective forces as much as possible before hand-to-hand combat.

The pirate fleet was advancing with great success.

One hundred nautical miles, fifty nautical miles, twenty nautical miles...

When they were about to enter the shooting range, the Whitebeard pirate fleet suddenly slowed down and finally stopped on the sea.

The ships on both sides separated, and forty larger pirate ships accelerated out of the middle, forming a "one" formation on the sea.

"Everyone, prepare for defense!"

At the highest point of the execution platform, Seng Guo, who had excellent eyesight, took in all the changes in the opponent. Looking at the familiar naval battle formation, an ominous premonition appeared in his heart.

"Fire!"

"Let the navy also have a taste of being bombarded!"

"Don't look at me, I will obey the command of the deputy captain in this battle."

Whitebeard, who had fully recovered, drank wine without any scruples and yelled at his sons who were looking at him.

"Boom--!"

The new muzzles were filled with gunpowder smoke and joined together on the sea to form a gray area.

Dark cannonballs landed on the naval camp, bursting out with intense fire, destroying everything within a five-meter radius.

After winning the first battle, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates reloaded their ammunition happily and immediately launched the second round of bombardment.

Cannonballs exploded on the warships outside the city wall. The Windmill Kingdom's reinforced cannonballs easily tore apart the defenses of the naval warships, causing irreparable damage to them.

"All captains of the navy, each group of twenty will cover the warships as they advance and fire!"

His excellent battlefield command ability allowed Warring States to immediately discover the enemy's unusual behavior. Knowing that if they continue to follow the old combat plan, the navy will inevitably suffer a big loss in the first round of confrontation.

"yes!"

With the order of the Navy Marshal, hundreds of figures flew out of the Naval Square and landed on the warships advancing against the opponent's artillery fire, blocking the cannonballs flying from the air.

"Give me a stronger armor-piercing bullet!"

Noticing the opponent's warship's intentions, An signaled the pirates to stop loading old ammunition and replace it with specially-made armor-piercing ammunition.

This ammunition was also developed based on Pluto's design drawings.

Pluto's drawings are not just ship construction drawings, they also include supporting weapons and ammunition production lines.

Of course, with the national power of the Windmill Kingdom, it is impossible to find all the required materials and can only make some low-end versions of ammunition, but it is enough to deal with ordinary warships.

"Okay! Vice Captain!"

The pirate who just complained that he didn't have enough fights took out the ordinary shells from the cannon and brought five or six silver-white conical shells.

"Navy, let me give you a taste of the power of the big guy!"
