There was a loud bang, and a small island floating in the sky was shaken. Then large cracks appeared, and countless rocks fell down, creating huge water columns on the sea.
.
"impossible!!"
The extremely angry roar like a lion king swept away along with the dark red air waves, and even the white clouds above the floating island were torn apart in an instant.
"Old...boss..."
In the banquet hall on the island, hundreds of new pirates who had joined the Flying Pirates for less than three years looked at the bottomless pit in the venue in horror, almost splitting the entire hall into two.
Rolling and crawling, they retreated to both sides.
On the stage, the 'Golden Lion' Shi Ji tightly held the famous sword 'Ying Ju' in his hand, and was already in extreme anger. His anger made him breathe heavily, and his eyes were as scarlet as blood, especially
The top of the head where the rudder was inserted was even more aching.
Just now, he chopped the newspaper on the coffee table into powder...
"Roger! Roger is a man I recognize!"
"How is it possible...how is it possible to be caught by those losers in the navy? How is it possible-!"
Shi Ji shouted angrily again, and at the same time, an extremely powerful and overbearing domineering energy burst out from his body. Suddenly, a large number of people rolled their eyes and fainted on the ground. In the blink of an eye, only a few people stood on the spot with shaking steps.
But the former didn't care about the situation of his men at all. He held the two swords in his hands and turned into a golden shadow and rushed out of the hall. Even if several cadres behind him shouted loudly, he completely ignored them and flew away from the floating island at an extremely fast speed.
About five minutes later, Shi Ji's figure disappeared without a trace. Just when those cadres were at a loss, the ground beneath their feet shook violently, making their faces turn pale with fear.
Soon, the entire floating island fell like a huge meteorite, setting off terrifying waves and sinking into the seabed...
From this moment on, the Sky Pirates, who have been roaming the sea for nearly fifteen years, disappear!
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.
"What? 'Golden Lion' Shiji is coming to attack here!"
In the Marshal's office, General Sengoku, who had just sat down for a while, stood up from the sofa after listening to Marshal Sora's words. Even Garp, who was sitting opposite him and eating senbei, also stopped moving.
"Well, this is the news just announced by Wulaoxing, so we need to prepare as soon as possible!" Marshal Kong, who had a white head on his head, looked extremely serious.
"If this is the case, then Shi Ji should have rushed here after reading today's newspaper, and then calculated the distance and speed of the floating island. He will probably arrive here tomorrow morning?" Warring States said what he was thinking.
But Marshal Kong shook his head, "No, what Wulaoxing said is that he will fight alone!"
"Alone?" Garp raised his eyebrows.
"How dare he?" Warring States was also full of surprise and confusion, and then asked: "How did the Five Old Stars know this?"
"I don't know. They didn't say it there, but you can guess it after a little thought." Marshal Kong sighed.
"There are people from CIPHER POL within the Flying Pirates!" Sengoku immediately thought of it, "It should be that this spy saw Shi Ji leaving alone and then sent the information, so it is so accurate."
"Yeah." Marshal Kong nodded.
For a moment, the two of them stopped talking, and the atmosphere in the office became silent. It was CIPHER POL's espionage capabilities that were so terrifying, making them even more fearful and vigilant. At this time, Garp spoke with a serious face.
"Then what do we do next?"
No matter how arrogant he is, he still knows the seriousness of the attack of the 'Golden Lion' Shi Ji.
"If he comes alone, he will definitely be faster. He will be there tonight, no, before tonight!" Warring States said in a deep voice.
"Then we just wait and catch him when he comes!" Garp clenched his right fist.
"No."
Warring States shook his head, looked at Marshal Kong, and said: "We can't put the battlefield in Marineland, otherwise it will cause huge damage and casualties, but we can't go too far from here, after all, Shi Ji's goal is here
.”
Marshal Kong thought about it, nodded in agreement, and asked, "Do you have any ideas? Let me know."
Sengoku slowly sat back on the sofa, his brows furrowed, and he began to think deeply. There were only three islands around Marinevando, Judiciary Island, Impel Down City, and the Chambord Islands. Obviously, these places cannot be used as battlefields.
But if there was no island, would he and Garp still have to fight at sea?
That would require aerial combat, which would be too advantageous for the 'Golden Lion' Shi Ji, who is a user of the Piao Piao Fruit ability.
"How about freeing up a few warships and putting them together outside Marinevando?"
Marshal Kong came up with a way.
"It's okay, but a few ships may not be enough. Even if Garp and I go together, it won't be easy to take down Shiji. It will take at least ten ships..."
Time passed like this little by little, and the golden sun above the blue sky slowly set, as if it had turned into the setting sun before long, reflecting the golden light on the sea level, but the sky had an obvious night color.
Suddenly, five naval warships floating in the sky appeared on the horizon in the direction of the waters of the 'New World', and the decks of each ship were covered with the corpses of sailors, including several generals wearing justice coats.
The extremely rich smell of blood filled the surroundings of the five warships, and from time to time, cold blood would drip down the hulls. They were like magic ships from the abyss, flying quickly across the sea.
‘Golden Lion’ Shi Ji sat cross-legged on the observation deck of one of the warships, staring intently at the island where a dark shadow could already be seen.
Marine Headquarters, Marinefando, has arrived!
He stood up slowly, and gradually tightened his palms holding the two swords. However, as the distance quickly shortened, his pupils suddenly shrank. Although he could not see anything with his naked eyes, he had already sensed two extremely powerful people.
The familiar atmosphere filled Shi Ji's heart with doubts and surprise.
After about twenty minutes, the two sides got close enough to look at each other. Shi Ji clearly saw two strong men wearing white justice coats and black suits. They seemed to be standing on the calm sea.
?
"Warring States! Garp!"
The five floating airships slowly slowed down and stopped floating. "Golden Lion" Shi Ji gritted his teeth and said the names of the two people. The malice and murderous intent in his eyes were not concealed at all, and the anger in his heart rose again.
At the same time, he had already seen what was under their feet. It was ice, a vast ice field that froze the entire sea near Marinevando!
Obviously, the Navy has been prepared for this...
"You're finally here. I've been waiting here for two hours. I'll give you a few punches later!" Garp moved his thick neck and strong arms, grinning and baring his teeth.
He looked up at Shi Ji with a cruel smile.
"Shi Ji, please think carefully. If you make a move today, you won't be able to leave today." Warring States said solemnly, stepping on the cold ice with his feet.
After hearing this, Shi Ji became furious. Since he dared to fight, he had already made up his mind. He needed an explanation!
"tell me!"
"How did you useless navy catch Roger!"
"Bring him here to me. Even if you want to kill him, I can only kill him with my own hands. He is a man I recognize!"
Sengoku and Garp didn't respond after hearing this. How could this be possible? I just felt that Shiji was completely living in a dream.
The two of them looked at each other, and in tacit understanding, they took off their justice coats and threw them aside, then stepped slowly towards Shi Ji.
At the same time, I saw the five huge bloody warships, accompanied by the roar of the 'Golden Lion', crashing down like a blanket.
"Give Roger! back to me!"
Behind, at the edge of the square in Marineland, Kuzan, dressed in black and purple, sat on the ground panting, looking tiredly at the battle that was unfolding in the distance...
