The overall situation in the north can only be regarded as a warm-up stage at this stage, because neither side is fully prepared.
World Government.
Except for the Ghost Spider's main battle division that has arrived at its scheduled location, several other divisions are still on the way.
Among them, Charlotte Owen's main battle division was stationed under the city of Seka Fortress. He did not choose to attack the city directly because Barrett had already sent an order asking him to wait for his arrival.
This was Barrett's intention to ensure that Owen's main battle division was in sufficient condition to face the large forces from the Alchemy Kingdom of Alkme, so he decided to take the Seka Fortress by himself.
There is also the need for Owen to receive the 10,000 auxiliary troops brought by Barrett, so now he can only wait quietly. Anyway, the Seka Fortress does not seem to have the courage to attack itself.
at the same time.
The World Government is still sending its air force and navy to this world, because according to the prisoners captured by the sea ninjas, it is already known that the empire has an established air force and navy fleet.
Therefore, flying warships, maritime warships, fighter jets, and even small floating islands used as air force bases all need to be sent into the star gate one after another.
For these purposes, Im specially sent Stussy to turn them into ‘hand-made models’ one by one, and then put them into large boxes classified one by one.
As for the empire.
It is also at the stage of mobilizing troops from all parties, especially Army General Brand, who is personally leading the 600,000 Imperial Army back to the imperial capital.
He did not bring all the troops over, but stayed on the western frontier to monitor every move of the Kingdom of Alchemy.
the other side.
On the East China Sea, Esdeath was impatiently urging God and the island country to give an answer as soon as possible.
In fact, if the latter did not send a large force to march north with her own side and raid the World Government's Stargate base from the sea, then she would not dare to lead most of the warships alone.
Who knows whether Kamiwajima Council will take the opportunity to attack the Imperial Navy headquarters?
Moreover, even Esdeath has to admit that the god and the island country, whose civilization is much more advanced than the empire, would indeed be a great help if they were allies.
Their swordsmen, their famous swords, and their ability to control the dangerous species of the ocean are truly amazing!
actually.
It's not like Esdeath didn't take Maillard's words to heart at all. At least she had a deeper understanding of the World Government, so she was much more cautious in her actions than before.
Her attitude towards war has always been very serious!
but.
No matter how the four forces of the World Government, the Empire, the Alchemy Kingdom of Alchemy, the Gods and the Island Kingdom stir up the situation.
It doesn't seem to have much influence on the ninjas, CIPHER POL, the secret reconnaissance force, and the assassins of "Alberg" who represent the "undercurrent".
They are still fighting each other in the corners of cities, wilderness, and mountains.
It's just that both sides have been consciously moving towards Baima Mountain recently, which has made the killings in this circle of Baima Mountain even more intense and cruel.
Although the Sea Ninja and CIPHER POL are stronger individually, the Secret Reconnaissance Force and 'Olberg' have the advantage in numbers.
At this time, the secret reconnaissance force no longer cared about the rule of entrusting killings to 'Olberg', and everyone with weapons in their hands had to participate in the battle.
After all, the people on the World Government side don't care whether they are investigators or assassins.
[Ding-ding. Ding-dang, ding-dong-dang.]
This is a place called Masola Town, located south of White Horse Mountain.
The residents here had long been hiding in their houses, looking fearfully through the cracks in the windows at the street outside, where many tattered corpses were lying in a pool of blood.
But the most frightening thing was the clanging sound that kept ringing in the air, as well as the shrill screams and howls before death that came from time to time.
"So strong!"
With an ugly expression on her face, Chitong once again witnessed a ball of flames quickly passing by and beheading one of her own secret agents in front of her, which made her immediately stop rushing forward.
The blood spraying out from the fracture represents the complete destruction of the secret reconnaissance force at the scene.
"Next, it's your turn, the red-eyed woman who killed three of my subordinates."
As the afterimage stopped, the flames dissipated, and the opponent's appearance appeared in front of Chitong again.
This person wears a blue and yellow mask on his face, has fluffy long thorny white hair, wears a black ninja uniform and vest, holds a long white-handled sword with fiery red lines on the blade in his hand, and hangs three more behind him.
A burning magatama-shaped ornament.
It is none other than the Jonin of the Sea Ninja Village, ‘Thunder Blade’!
Not far away from him, the corpses of three Chunin, also wearing black uniforms and vests, had completely cooled down, and mysterious black spells appeared on the surface of their skins.
The reason why Thunder Blade chose to clear out the 'miscellaneous people' first was to prevent them from distracting him and to avoid accidentally making a cut with the knife in the opponent's hand.
There is also the one who hides in the dark and shoots a golden beam of light from time to time, which is also very difficult to deal with!
The key is that he tried to kill Chi Tong first, but the opponent was obviously much weaker than him, but the fighting talent he displayed was extremely astonishing.
Every time I think I have succeeded, I can always use various ingenious responses to resolve the crisis.
He even vaguely noticed that this woman was adapting to his own fighting rhythm.
"snort!"
Chitong didn't like to talk nonsense, so she immediately held the newly acquired Teigu 'Murasame' in her hand and turned into a dark red afterimage and rushed towards the thunder blade at high speed.
"It's so courageous to take the initiative to attack."
Thunder Blade praised in a deep voice, then shook the Nichirin Sword in his hand with his backhand, and displayed the "Breath of Fire"'s "One Type. Shiranui", transforming his whole body into a long line of fire and launching a high-speed assault.
However, the fire he created was not just a shadow effect, it was also mixed with real flames originating from the 'Flame Magatama' behind him.
Who doesn’t know how to control fire?
Seeing this, Chitong had no intention of confronting anyone head-on. Instead, he walked with the knife, tapping, stabbing, or teasing with deft steps, like a black-red butterfly flying back and forth on the edge of the flame.
This resulted in the two sides apparently fighting together, but there was no sound of swords clashing.
【BIU!】
Sudden.
A golden ray passed through the cool air and accurately hit the back of the thunder blade, causing its entire movement to pause.
This time was very short, but Chitong did not let it go. The 'Murasame' in his hand turned into a bright blade of light and smeared on Lei Ren's left arm in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the whole person and the thunder blade passed by each other, and the two sides stood back to back without moving.
"It's this feeling again, what on earth is this."
Chitong frowned and turned around, carefully looking at the thunder blade that seemed to be unharmed. It was the same before. It was clear that Murasame had touched the opponent's skin, but it could not break through the defense.
Based on her level of understanding of muscles, she was very sure that it was not some kind of physical technique that hardened the muscles, but more like a layer of tough armor.
An armor that can withstand the blades of Murasame and even the shots of Mayin's Pumpkin!
"However, I always feel that there is an inexplicable sense of familiarity, which is very similar to the breath emitted by the human body. But... how can the breath become armor?"
So many people came out yesterday, and today everyone dived into the deep sea again, right?
