A clean and tidy room, bright sunlight pouring in from the window.
"This is......"
When Barrett opened his eyes again, he was first stunned by the light, and then saw the white ceiling clearly, but he was immediately awakened by the burning pain on his body.
Looking at the surroundings and his own situation, the thick white quilt on his body, the smell of disinfectant in the air, and the bandages wrapped around his upper body all seemed to prove that he was in a ward.
Barrett endured the pain and sat up, but his thoughts fell into memories. Soon, the lava land full of fire appeared in his mind.
"Are you still defeated...?"
A low murmur of unwillingness sounded in the room, but he still could not resist the continuous bites of those lava dogs, as well as Sakaski's powerful lava fist bombardment.
"There are so many guys stronger than me in this world..."
Barrett has always felt that only monsters of the same generation as Roger in the world can defeat him, such as Garp and Whitebeard.
In his eyes, the one he met at Pangle Castle was just an old monster from an earlier generation.
But now the appearance of Sakaski, a former navy general and current army general, made him realize that he might have really been a frog in the well before.
think carefully.
There are three admiral backups. In addition to this "Akainu", there are also "Kizaru" and "Ao Pheasant". This is equivalent to two people who can defeat him.
Who knows how many such powerful people there are in the world government, and how many are there overseas?
"Damn it, I'm not strong enough yet, but I will definitely catch up. Sooner or later I will knock all these guys above me to the ground one by one!"
[Dong dong dong]
Just as Barrett was swearing through gritted teeth, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Senior Director Addison walk in and said with a smile: "It seems that you are recovering well. You can finally send good news to Marshal Raymond."
"How long have I been asleep?"
Barrett asked in a deep voice with an ugly expression on his face. His voice was hoarse at first because the scorching heat had hurt his throat.
"It's only three days.
"
Senior Director Addison sat on the chair beside the bed, took an apple and threw it to Barrett, "Eat one to moisten your throat."
The latter took the apple and took a bite without politeness. In this one bite, more than half of the pulp was taken off. The taste was terrible.
"You know, when Marshal Raymond heard that you were beaten to death, he made a big fuss and scolded General Akainu in front of all of us."
Barrett asked: "What about others?"
"I'm leaving, I'm going back to my hometown. I said I'd scold him again when I get back..." Senior Director Addison said with a smile.
"Ah--"
Barrett curled his lips in disdain. He was almost beaten to death, and then he just scolded Sakaski twice. How perfunctory.
"Tell me, why did you come to see me?"
Maybe he didn't even notice that his temper now is much calmer than before, at least the arrogance on his face is much less.
Addison was naturally happy to see this change. He had previously felt that Barrett's character was too aggressive and too arrogant.
"It's like this. The news that the shogunate has been replaced by a female general has spread. Now the general managers in various parts of the country, in the name of restoring the orthodoxy of Tiantiao, have sent an alliance crusade order to King Kong Guo."
When talking about business, Senior Director Addison's smile disappeared and he looked at Barrett with a very serious look.
Although the latter's current appearance is not very good with bandages, but after all, the other party is also a military officer representing the army.
"Huh? Punishment order?"
Barrett was immediately amused by these words, and his whole body trembled with laughter, which even stimulated the wound under the bandage, but this pain was nothing at all.
"Tell me, how powerful are they?"
Senior Director Addison recalled the information he had seen before and introduced it to Barrett with a serious expression.
"We have learned about Shikagawa Iris and Amatori Mima. So far, a total of twelve regional governors have joined this crusade alliance, namely Hitachi, Musashi, Ueno, Shinano, Echigo, Kaga, and Hida.
, Mino, Mikawa, Kai, Dewa, Noto.”
"Amatori Mima specifically pointed out that the Tiger Fall Army on the Echigo side and the Genji Army on the Shinano side are the strongest. Their strength has reached 5,000."
"Among them, the Genji Army is stronger because they have mastered a guard cannon called the Narukami, which is said to be the largest caliber cannon in Japan. It once cleared more than 3,000 Kabane in the Musashi area.
very famous!"
Having said this, he paused for a moment and then spoke again.
"That is to say, we will face at least twelve armored trains, more than 40,000 troops, hundreds of artillery and a 'Sounding Cannon' that is said to be able to penetrate the city wall of the 'Inn' with one shot."
"The reason why I say at least is because more regional general managers may join in later, and the total force may exceed 50,000!"
But Senior Director Addison found speechlessly that he had clearly spoken so seriously and seriously.
But as Barrett sat on the bed, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and the excitement in his eyes almost turned into flames, because the war he wanted was finally here!
"Isn't this a great thing?"
"These rabble-rousers got together and took the initiative to deliver them to the door, and they just happened to be wiped out!"
As he spoke, he scratched the bandages tied to his body, revealing his bare chest covered with burn marks. The moment these scars came into contact with the air, they caused an even stronger burning sensation.
"It is indeed a good thing from this point of view, but we only have an army of 5,000 troops now. Amata Mima estimates that the crusade will arrive near Konganguo in five days at the latest."
"It takes more than a day to get to King Kong Guo from the base. Even if we transfer people from the mainland immediately, the width of the Yixing Gate will only be enough to send in a few thousand more soldiers."
As a senior official of the World Government, Addison was naturally not so worried because he had never seen a local strong man, but because he knew that the purpose of the army was to train troops.
Unless there are special circumstances, we will not invest too high a level of combat power, not even a lot of general-level combat power.
So basically we can only rely on the soldiers at the bottom to deal with this alliance crusade!
With less than 10,000 troops fighting against more than 50,000 troops, there are too many uncertainties...
Facts have proven that even army soldiers will still be injured and die if they are hit by a steam gun, not to mention there are hundreds of artillery and mortars over there.
The physical advantage can only be reflected when the two sides engage in close combat. In the previous gun battles and artillery battles, it felt useless?
If you lose in the end, it will be great fun.
Good guy, the world government’s first war against another world ended in defeat?
Then it will be useless even if Barrett takes action and defeats everyone on the other side. uu Reading www.uukanshu.com The face that has been thrown away will be more or less dirty if you pick it up again.
"Humph, war is not a child's game. You have to wait for both sides to get ready!"
Barrett stood up again. His strong body of nearly four meters tall really put a lot of pressure on Senior Director Addison, and he could only subconsciously take a few steps back.
"By the way, where is that guy Crocodile?"
Only then did he remember his defeated general.
"Lieutenant General Crocodile has returned to the mainland and went to Cipher Pol headquarters for training." Senior Director Addison said helplessly.
Barrett snorted coldly, "It's better if he gets out. Where's that beautiful bird? Did he go with him?"
"That's not true. Originally, Lieutenant General Crocodile wanted to take him back to the homeland, but he chose to stay because he didn't want to miss this opportunity for military glory."
"Haha, what a smart kid. I thought he was just another idiot who only knows how to act clever!"
